Chapter 432: The desert is solitary and the smoke is straight, and the long river is setting in the sun(1/2)
Yunzhong County, county town.
Li Xin stared at the map in front of him. After half an hour, the general behind him continued to analyze the movements of the main force of the Huns.
At the same time, war reports from the front line echoed in the room.
Not long after, a knight wearing light armor walked into the room.
"General, this is Your Majesty's secret order!"
After taking the secret order from the knight's hand, Li Xin's expression became respectful and quickly opened it.
After reading it, a hint of shock and a hint of solemnity appeared on Li Xin's face.
Seeing this, the genital generals around him were curious, but they didn't dare to ask, just waiting for Li Xin to come back to his senses.
After a moment, Li Xin put the secret order in his arms and continued to study the map as if nothing had happened.
After about a while, he said in a deep voice: "Everyone, our army has repelled more than 40 attacks of the Huns, but the Huns are still very tenacious."
"I have a feeling that the main force of the Huns should be revealed."
Hearing this, the generals looked at each other and looked at each other in a glance.
One of the generals stood up and bowed to Li Xin and said, "What the general said is reasonable. The Huns' previous attacks were all tentative attacks, with the purpose of confusing us;
Fortunately, the general was foresighted and screened several passes in advance and guarded them heavily. Even if the Huns attacked us, they would not fall into a complete passive position!"
"No, the general is wise!" Another general also stood up and agreed.
The other generals hurriedly bowed to Li Xin: "General, wise!"
After the words came, the generals thought that Li Xin would be humble.
Unexpectedly, Li Xin was silent, as if he had not heard the compliments from the generals.
For a moment, the whole room fell into a strange silence.
At this moment, everyone remembered the emperor's secret order that Li Xin had just received.
Seeing that all the generals were worried, Gongsun Hong took the initiative to bow to Li Xin and said, "General, I don't know what Your Majesty's secret order said, which makes you so devastated?"
"Um?"
Li Xin frowned, then looked at Gongsun Hong, paused, swept the circle of generals again, thought for a while, then whispered: "The prince and your majesty are coming to Yunzhong County!"
boom--!
When the generals heard that Ying Zheng was about to come to Yunzhong County, they felt as if they were struck by lightning, and their heads were blank.
It’s not because Ying Zheng and Zhao Kun came to Yunzhong County, which would have any adverse effects.
But because this is the front line, it is not very strange that the emperor personally seeks the army. The key is that the lord of a country and the lord of the future are here.
If something happens, the world that has just been pacified will cause chaos in the world again.
As for Fusu, they are not optimistic about Fusu taking over Qin because of their previous experience.
After the generals were silent for a long time, Li Xin spoke again, "Okay, don't think too much. Your Majesty and the Prince come to Yunzhong County, and they are not alone. They are accompanied by General Han Xin, so they are safe and worry-free."
"But." As he said that, he changed his subject and then said: "Your Majesty and the Prince come to Yunzhong County to supervise the battle. We must focus more on fighting and strive for a beautiful victory, so that our Jiuyuan Army and Liaodong Army will be more proud!"
"promise."
The generals responded and quickly adjusted their emotions and analyzed the situation with Li Xin.
Not long after, a commander Sima rushed over and bowed to Li Xin and said, "Report to the general, the scout on the front line discovered that the Hun cavalry was about 100,000!"
"good!"
When Li Xin heard this, he immediately slapped his head and said, "It's finally here!"
As soon as the words were finished, the generals reacted instantly, unable to help but whispered and smiled excitedly.
"The main force of the Huns has appeared!"
"Haha, it turns out that the general didn't expect that he wanted to sneak attack our army's pass and head straight for Yunzhong County City!"
"Hmph, this time I will definitely let them go without a return!"
"It's just right, so we let His Majesty and the Prince see. We didn't fight the civil war, and we didn't lose the advantage in foreign wars!"
Seeing that the generals were full of energy and fighting spirit, Li Xin raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "Okay, let's do as planned."
"promise."
The generals bowed their orders and went to perform their respective tasks in a scattered manner.
After the generals left, Li Xin turned his gaze again on the map, murmured with a torch: "Twenty years ago, I fell from Chu, and twenty years later, I will get up from Mobei..."
.........
At the same time, outside the Great Wall Pass.
The Hun army, with a population of more than 100,000, appeared in front of the Qin army soldiers.
The Qin soldiers looked at the countless Hun soldiers in front of them and subconsciously swallowed their saliva.
"Damn it, there are many people. If you cut off a few more heads, I will be promoted to another level..."
"You don't want any credit for the door-to-door credit? Jue is a bird, I'm going to be promoted to three levels in a row!"
"Hahaha, I am determined to be my soldier!"
The centurion ahead grinned as he heard the soldiers whispering.
In the eyes of the Qin army soldiers, these Xiongnu soldiers were not scary at all, but were very excited about their arrival.
Because the heads of these Hun soldiers were the sources of their promotion of titles and improvement of their lives.
Woo woo woo woo woo woo woo-
As the dull horn sounded, tens of thousands of Hun soldiers launched a fierce attack on the pass.
The Qin army guarding the pass also began to thunder and drums. The dense Qin army held spears and aimed at the charge of the Xiongnu soldiers.
Puff puff puff....
Crossbow arrows and bows fall from the sky like rain in the sky, forming a "dark cloud".
Those Hun soldiers without any armor were quickly shot into sieve by arrows, and some were even shot directly off the horse.
However.
Even so, the Hun soldiers were still brave and brave enough to move forward.
When they rushed into the pass for two hundred steps, the Hun soldiers also pulled their bows and arrows, and shot fiercely at the Qin army on the pass.
Faced with the rain of arrows, the Qin army had armor to resist, and the mortality rate was relatively small, but there were also places where armor could not be protected.
The arrows of the Huns are slightly different from those of the Qin army.
Because they applied various poisons and animal feces to the arrows, most of the soldiers who were shot were infected with wounds and died of poisoning.
Although the Hun cavalry was very strong, the Qin army's crossbows were more sharp. The two sides shot each other in a row, and the Qin army was obviously dominant.
About half an hour later, a horn of withdrawal came, and the Hun soldiers began to retreat unwillingly.
Of course, they only retreated for a while and did not retreat too far.
Now that the raid on this pass has failed, whether to continue attacking or change the place will be decided by the Shanyu of this army.
......
On the other side, Ying Zheng and Zhao Kun's convoy had arrived at Yanmen Pass.
Crossing Yanmen Pass is the boundary of Yunzhong County.
This was the first time Zhao Kun saw the scenery outside the border, and he couldn't help feeling relaxed and happy.
At this time, the sunset was setting, and the sand and wind blew, making the wind chimes on the city tower rustling.
Zhao Kun followed Ying Zheng to Yanmen Pass and looked at the scenery in front of him, and was stunned for a moment.
Only now did he realize what is the beautiful scenery of "the lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun sets in the long river is round".
The poems of ancient people focused on artistic conception. If you don’t feel the beauty when you are not in the scene, you cannot feel that kind of beauty.
Now Zhao Kun is standing at Yanmen Pass, feeling like time and space are intertwined.
It seems like two thousand years passed by, only in a moment.
At this moment, Ying Zheng next to him suddenly sighed: "Finally, my father hasn't been here for fifteen years. Now I feel a lot when I see you."
"Have your father visited Yanmen Pass?"
Zhao Kun was slightly stunned and couldn't help but feel confused.
Because there is no record in history that Qin Shihuang visited Mobei.
Moreover, most of Ying Zheng's tours were to shock the remnants of the six countries.
The Huns outside the border were not intimidated.
Only in the ranks of expulsion.
