Chapter 380
Speaking of which, the rebels who passed Luo County and began to return to the direction of the Xiongnu Shanyuting were now on the edge of the Yellow River.
It was getting late and I had to continue my journey tomorrow. Of course, it was nothing to go on the road at night. Perhaps it was because I ate meat and I would also eat some liver. Most of the Huns did not have night blindness.
Perhaps this will happen to those who have enriched farming, but the Hun soldiers must have meat to eat, at least they will have internal organs and other things, so they can open up meat slightly.
However, it is one thing to be able to fight at night, but whether it is the same thing? In the past, night combat was also normal. At night, it was a basic operation. Now it is not possible. Everyone is used to fighting during the day and resting at night.
It can only be said that with the serious sinicization, the Southern Xiongnu began to gradually give up, or forget some traditions. Just like later generations, the severely sinicized Manchus almost turned Manchu into an endangered language, and the cultural department also needed special organization of rescue.
"How is the situation of Gudu Hou?" Hu Yanlu, the leader of the Huyan tribe, looked at another leader who came out of the commander's tent.
"The situation is very bad. It is getting worse and it will be bumpy all the way. It seems that it will not last long." The leader of Hesui tribe shook his head, "Maybe we can send him a ride, and this will only continue to suffer."
"The question is, who will be the leader then?" Hu Yanlu asked back.
At present, Subu is still alive, so everyone is quarreling in private, but at least it maintains a relative unity. If something happens to Subu, then the entire camp will be divided into at least two camps.
One advocated continuing to plunder and forced the Han people to retreat to rescue; the other felt that their tribe and tribe members were in Xihe County and had to go back.
The advocate of plunder is because the main tribe members have already come out, and the remaining those who depend on them are ignored. Compared to the risk of going back to rescue, the risk of plundering outside is lower; while the advocate of returning to rescue is just the opposite.
Among those who advocated looting, there was even an extreme tribal leader who proposed to plunder a large number of Han women, and then directly develop a new Hun tribe within the Han area.
It was amazing. Everyone just smiled knowingly, and did not object or agree. In the end, Subu, who was still conscious, spoke and returned to help, so everyone could only return to help.
All this is based on Subu's still there. If he dies, who should he listen to him, should he return to help or continue to rob.
"Hey..." The question was in front of me, and except for a sigh, I didn't know what to do.
The next day, the army set out and took about two hours to cross the Yellow River and then began to accelerate. The distance between the twenty-five miles was only about one hour.
However, when we advanced more than ten miles and arrived near Longwanggou, we found that the ground was bumpy.
Such a road is very difficult to walk, especially those pits, which are almost as big as fists, which can easily cause horse hooves to sink and cause fractures. For cavalry, such pits can even be described as "malice".
It’s not just a small area like this, but for some reason the entire section of the road is a bit bumpy and uneven. You know, it wasn’t like this when I came out two months ago.
"What should I do?" Hu Yanlu looked at her companions.
"Fill the pit and leave, what else can I do... I can't go up the mountain, right?" replied the companion.
I had to waste some time and fill the hole in front of me, which delayed it by almost two quarters of a minute. I had to curse a few words, and then I was worried that such a hole would appear in front of me, so I could only slow down a little.
Anyway, it is only about ten miles away from Shanyu Court, so you can take your time. But I feel that I probably can't fight today, so I can only find another opportunity to attack the city tomorrow. By the way, I have to attack the city... Damn it's attacking the city!
I was complaining about this thing in private, but something seemed to fly out of the mountain... There was nothing strange about it, but there was nothing to make a fuss about the breaking mountain, and occasionally a few birds flew out.
The problem is that the number is a bit too many, more than twenty, and it looks like it is getting bigger and bigger... Meow!
When I realized that something was wrong, the small black dots in the sky had become a big piece and fell towards them.
"Boom boom boom..." After a sound, a wave of dust stained with flesh and blood was raised, and the entire position was smashed into pieces, and the formation had become messy.
"Why are there any rocks falling?" Hu Yanlu roared immediately, "We were ambushed!"
He seemed to understand why the bumpy area was not formed naturally, but the ambushers were confirming the landing point of the throwing stone. There was no need for them to aim accurately. After all, their 70,000 army was very large, so huge that even a single falling rock could kill several times.
By the way, in the grass on the ground, a large number of enemy troops suddenly appeared. They were wearing strange clothes and pretending to be like grass. Because of this, they didn't notice it at all before!
No, no, maybe it is mainly because everyone's attention is attracted by the bumpy roads. When we are walking, we always stare at the bottom of our feet.
"Shoot!" With Cao Xing's order, crossbows and arrows were shot out one after another, and there were storm arrows attached. And they were not aiming randomly, but specifically shooting towards the area where the rebel generals were located.
Hu Yanlu was walking in the front. He was now staring at his chest, and the blood hole formed by a crossbow arrow pierced through it. He began to regret, regret why he was in front...
"Retreat!" After shooting once, Cao Xing did not care at all and immediately ordered a retreat.
The Xiongnu rebels who reacted were chasing them one after another. It was too easy for a group of cavalry to chase a group of infantry!
As a result, the other party walked to the hillside and suddenly bent down and cut off the ropes on the ground. At this time, several net bags disguised as "hay piles" or "rocks" fell down, and the logs and stones on them fell down one after another.
"Back, back!" The thousand-headed rebels, who realized that the situation was wrong, immediately shouted, but the logs and stones had already smashed towards them. Many horses were overturned, and the bouncing logs were hit by the jumping logs. After being caught, they were not sure of their life or death.
"Stop!" Cao Xing immediately issued an order, "turn around and shoot!"
The crossbowmen stopped one after another, then turned around, rolled the arrow or crossbow arrow, and fired again. However, this time, there was no bonus of the storm arrow, and the range and penetration were much worse.
"Normal circumstances, I'm not very adaptable..." Seeing this, Cao Xing was very dissatisfied with the result, but he had no choice but to do anything about it. After getting used to the great power, he now at this level doesn't like it.
At the same time, the second round of throwing stones on the mountain was ready and immediately threw it towards the rebels at the foot of the mountain.
