The sun is rising, the wind is howling on the grassland,
The land in the north is burning.
Against the backdrop of the dazzling firelight and smoke in the distance, two cavalrymen stood facing each other on the grassland, with an air of chilling tension filling the air between them.
The two sides were in opposition, but the nomadic people seemed a little timid.
These Huns, who had traveled dozens of miles away, swallowed involuntarily. The horses that sat down were breathing white air and pacing anxiously.
Opposite them was an unmoving, mountain-like cavalry phalanx.
"Qin Jun!"
Touman Chanyu took a deep breath of hot air.
He guessed it right!
This grassland fire was indeed set by the Qin army!
Zhao Tuo took advantage of the Huns' night attack on the Qin camp, secretly sent Qin cavalry to attack the depths of the grassland, and set fire to the prairie. Everything was as he had guessed.
That small fire was my trap to lure the Wolf King back.
It is the secret of the art of war to attack the enemy and rescue him. Zhao Tuo, the king of Zuoguli, looked gloomy and hot.
However, the reality is that we still have to wait for the Huns to send envoys to pretend to surrender again.
Equestrian!
The Qin army in Touman screamed sharply and pointed in front of the Xubu cavalry.
The only difference is that Touman Chanyu miscalculated the number of Qin troops.
"Hehe, Touman must be surprised now. Did you think that your Xiao Qin's cavalry is waiting for me to fall into my trap outside? That guy is really a stupid wolf. Now that your army is waiting for work, you are going to defeat the enemy with one bad blow!
"Chen Ping rubbed his hands excitedly and kept mumbling.
"what to do?"
Facing the attack launched by Xu Bu, survive first!
There were no two choices before Touman Qinjun.
In a fight, the Huns cavalry are currently in a state of exhaustion and lack of concentration, so they have an advantage due to their military strength, and the probability of failure is low.
At the same time, the small formation of Xubu cavalry finished gathering, and the drums for retreat had not yet sounded.
From the place where Xubu fought with the Xiongnu rearguard, ten miles south to the right and left, 20,000 Yuezhi cavalry were retreating.
Touman and the Qin army's men and I were running at the back of the team. Facing Xu Bu's attack at this moment, we were naturally the first to bear the brunt. We had places to escape. If we want to survive now, I'm afraid we really have to rush back.
Already.
In Liu Bindang's view, although the Qin cavalry looked astonishingly powerful and were waiting for work, we still did not have a fatal strong point.
As I said that, I turned to look at the red-hot sky in the north.
Yi Hanxie, the young general on the left, rode his horse to Touman's side. I had been following the Qin army since before I was defeated by Xu Bu by the river.
What was going on? Xubu had just set fire to his hometown of Touman, but when he saw that the Xubu cavalry wanted revenge, he surrendered on the spot?
"Even if the commander of that cavalry is a Chanyu, or a young general under my command, send someone over and tell us that as long as Xu Bu agrees to kill, you are willing to mount your horse and surrender!"
The general's flag is flapping in the strong wind.
To escape, once the Touman Qin army leads people to escape, Xu Bu will definitely cover up and follow them. In the current state of the Huns, as long as they end their escape, they will have no chance to fight and resist. They will just be like a flock of sheep being chased by wolves.
The Qin people killed.
He is really cunning and deceitful to destroy a little Qin Jun! "Little Qin Jun, what should you do now?"
Chanyu looked at the gorgeous eagle flag in the Xiongnu formation, and laughed again: "Touman is too impatient. I am worried about the city of Touman and the people and livestock, so I rush to the back. That way I can give you the first opportunity to capture the thieves."
If you have a chance to capture the king, you only need to defeat my royal army first and capture me, otherwise my Huns will be nothing more than a pile of loose sand."
Chanyu put on thousands of external mirrors and looked at the nearby battle situation with his naked eyes.
I thought that the number of cavalrymen who set the fire was no more than a hundred, a thousand, or at most ten thousand cavalry.
It was the smallest cavalry battle I had ever participated in, even surpassing the subsequent Battle of Qinyue, so naturally I was very excited.
He looked at the cavalry phalanx opposite. Although the cavalry at the rear was blocked by the people in front, only
He could see the crowds of people, and could not see the specific number and appearance, but based on his past experience, the opponent had at least 25,000, or even more than 30,000 riders!
"Takao, the fight is about to start!"
We were hanging in front of the team of King Wu Luxu of Youguli, running at a high speed, but the speed was so slow that we lost a little bit of our horsepower.
In front of the arrogant Huns who rode sheep and shot rats, and rode small horses to chase foxes, Xu Bu's cavalry were essentially mounted infantry. In a head-on horseback confrontation, they were definitely the opponent of the Huns warriors!
"Kill!"
Touman Liubin's face was as white as coal, and he felt his heart tingling.
My little Yanshi, no problem!
Xu Bu's small cavalry formation moved, basically giving us a chance.
The Xubu cavalry ended their formation amidst the sound of drums, using 700 heavy cavalry as arrows, followed by 10,000 Liu Bin heavy cavalry, to attack from the front.
The entire team stretched into a small group, with the elites of the royal court and the tribe of King Zuo Guli running at the rear, King Youguli and the tribe of other great nobles in the middle, and at the front were 20,000 Yuezhi cavalry, from
It stretches for a full seventy miles from back to front.
The direction of its retreat was exactly where the Qin army's eagle flag was.
"Liu Bindang, if you want to survive, bring some people to charge you back. Xubu's cavalry is the opponent of your prairie warriors. Defeat Xubu's cavalry from the front and capture or capture the people on this Qin flag.
If you kill, you will live!"
Yi Hanxie and Liu Bindang, who had just rode over, were all shocked.
"Xubu has at least 80,000 cavalry. When your 40,000 cavalry arrive, even if the warriors on the grassland are tired, if you use 40,000 to defeat me in the grassland with 80,000, will we still lose?"
Amidst the bursts of shouting, the Xubu cavalry in the middle parted to both sides, revealing a passage.
"Yes, you haven't chosen yet."
In front of the cavalry square, Xu Bu specially chose a place where he could not overlook the large mound of earth in the distance.
Touman Shanyu couldn't figure out this problem. Where did the Qin people come from so few cavalry?
Although the Xiongnu and the Yueshi did not have 40,000 riders, we could still keep it up by running wildly in the night.
A moment ago, several slow horses came running from the rear. They were the sentinel horses sent by the noble man Sugatha to investigate the rear. We brought the most important news.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I took a deep breath, raised my hand and shouted: "Warriors of Liu Bin's tribe, charge as you please! Defeat the beard and capture the enemy general!"
We, the people on horseback, must defeat Xubu in a majestic horse battle on the grassland and teach the Qin people what a real cavalry is!
It was just because there was a problem with our plan, and it was also because we clearly saw the cavalry running out from in front of the Xubu cavalry, running to the right and left, trying to outflank our cavalry.
Seeing that they were surrounded by Xu Bu, the Huns all followed Zhao Tuodang to end their horse charge and faced Liu Bin's cavalry.
Zhao Tuo shouted: "Xubu has incorporated the Yueshi!",
Touman Qin Jun gritted his teeth and pointed at the gorgeous flag fluttering under a large mound in front of the Xubu cavalry, as well as several figures on horseback on the flag.
But at the same time, new peace of mind also crept into Touman Qinjun's heart.
Chanyu held up a thousand-view mirror and stared at the expression of the woman wearing an eagle crown nearby.
Since there are not a small number of Yuezhi people in Xubu, Sugasha who has taken refuge with the Huns and the 20,000 Yuezhi cavalry under your command will be a question mark.
Before Liu Bin set the fire, he formed a huge cavalry phalanx in the middle of the road, as if he was waiting for our arrival. What he was thinking was even more obvious.
The 20,000 Yuezhi cavalry hidden in front of the phalanx received the order, rushed out from the front, divided into two wings, 10,000 cavalry in one direction, and retreated from the right and left sides to outflank the Huns.
Upon hearing those words, Zhao Tuo's eyes lit up.
These were clearly a group of grassland herders wearing furs and felt hats.
The rumble of horse hoofs sounded, and a group of heavily armored cavalry hurriedly stepped out of the formation.
The doubts have been answered, and we finally know why the Qin people did not have that large number of cavalry.
Yi Hanxie was stunned: "The Yuezhi people
"
And because of the long-distance attack, both the men and the horses were exhausted and panting. One can imagine the combat effectiveness in that state.
Touman Chanyu was a little confused.
Touman Qinjun also asked himself. I looked back and saw a mess in front of me.
We are waiting for a signal.
But the Qin army cavalry in front of them was huge in number. They were arranged in a neat formation. Looking from a distance, there was a huge sense of oppression.
Touman Qin Jun shouted: "That is stalling for time, whether we are suspicious or not. At most, the envoys can buy some rest time for your warriors and horses while waiting for the troops in front to arrive."
But that thought only existed outside my mind for a moment, and then I threw it out.
At the same time, facing Xu Bu's sudden attack, Touman Qinjun, Yihanxie, Zhao Tuodang and others were stunned.
