The first thousand one hundred and eighteen chapters
"What on earth is going on? What happened?" Looking at the scene in front of them, some commanders and centurions were confused. They couldn't figure out what happened to make their cavalry behave like this. of embarrassment.
However, before these people could answer anything, the cavalrymen of the Canglang Battalion appeared behind them and gave them a bloody answer.
With no one to stop them, the soldiers of the Canglang Battalion formed a platoon as a unit and formed a sharp knife. They rushed into the outer camp of the Xiongnu camp, running and slashing here wantonly. The foreign cavalry who once ran rampant in the southern part of the Central Plains were beheaded to the ground one by one, and their heads and bodies were separated.
Shen Dao's tyranny and benefits are undoubtedly revealed at this moment.
The longer blade meant that when the soldiers of the Canglang Battalion were dealing with the Hun cavalry, the opponent's sword had already been hit by a sinking knife before the opponent's sword was stretched out in front of them, and they lost the ability to fight again. In addition, the original sinking knife was It was so sharp that when the knife fell, it brought up pieces of blood mist.
The Hun cavalry without horses was equivalent to infantry. Facing the fierce attack of the Wolf Battalion, there was only one thing they could do, and that was to wait to be slaughtered. Just like they were once unstoppable in the South, It's the same when killing people randomly.
At that time, the lives of the people in the south were the least valuable in the eyes of the Huns cavalry, and they could be killed if they wanted. But now, their lives are also the most worthless in the eyes of the Canglang Camp soldiers, and they could be killed if they wanted. .
The pungent smell of blood soon filled the entire outer camp. After countless Hun cavalry fell on the ground who dared to resist, the soldiers of Canglang Camp finally showed their endless killing intent and made the Huns feel it. Fear and terror came to the fore. Finally, some people couldn't stand the strong pressure and threw the scimitars in their hands to the ground. They chose to surrender and survive.
Although the Emperor Daqian once gathered in Beijing to watch, many Huns knew that when fighting the Chinese army, they might not be captured even if they surrendered. But seeing that they would definitely die if they didn't surrender, it would be better to Let's bet, maybe the Emperor of Great China will change his temper and stop killing them?
Speaking of which, some of them guessed it right this time. The purpose of killing prisoners and setting up Jingguan was to shock the Huns, let them understand the mistakes they had made, and let them know that the Chinese army was very dissatisfied with what they had done. , in order to make them do less evil. But now, seeing that the Huns army is about to be finished, the prisoners who are killing them will no longer have any warning effect. If one of them is not done well, it will bring bad consequences. reputation and adverse consequences.
Therefore, Tang Ao had already given an order to Pingcheng and Canglang Camp. If the Huns could be captured in this battle, it would be better not to kill them. Unless those who committed the most heinous crimes should be sent to labor camps.
These are all good coolies. Without the Huns, it is impossible for them to stand up, and it is time for them to be used with confidence. At that time, we will select some good performers, release them, and give them a chance to live a better life. In a freer life, there must be examples like this, and other prisoners will do their best to perform well. In that case, whether it is building roads or building cities, with more motivated criminals, the construction period can be accelerated several times. It's divided.

Having said that, the outer camp was captured with almost no effort. After the army left two battalions to clean the battlefield and take prisoners, the other six regiments divided into four regiments and rushed towards the inner camp.
.The remaining second and third regiments headed towards Wangcheng.
At the foot of Wangcheng.
The siege battle is still going on very fiercely.
The Xiongnu army under the city looked like they would not give up until they captured the city. The soldiers of Guzhou Prefecture who defended the city and the young men in the city also showed a posture of coexistence and death with the city.
Relying on the strength of their numbers, the morale of the Dahua soldiers and civilians defending the city was still good. Although there was an incident where the Huns soldiers climbed up the city tower through ladders, and they also killed and injured thousands of people, this did not
It affected their firm confidence in defending the city.
Probably they also knew that behind them were the people of the whole city. And with the Huns' temperament, once they really captured Wangcheng, everyone here would probably suffer. If that happens, they would be dead. They were afraid.
Even if you want to die, you can't do it. You have to become a slave and be driven by the Huns forever.
Of course, the most important reason for having such firm confidence in defending the city is that they know that there is Canglang Camp outside the city, and they are rushing to rescue them. With reinforcements, everyone is naturally full of hope in their hearts, and the difficulties and obstacles are of course
It won't be so scary anymore.
The Xiongnu army had experience in attacking cities. When they were in the south, they also encountered some fortified cities. But in the end, weren't they still attacked by them, and then killed, burned, and looted in revenge?
At that time, if we really enter the city, the defenders in the city may not be that powerful, they will still kneel down and beg for mercy in fear.
Even so, the same is true for Wangcheng. The only difference is time. Compared with their military strength, they are not much worse. At least they have sufficient siege personnel. Compared with their military quality and fierceness, they are stronger than the Dahua soldiers and civilians who defend the city.
More, they believe that victory will definitely belong to them.
With such self-confidence, the Huns were so excited when they attacked the city that they did not even notice what was happening in the camp behind them. This was also because Qi Huai and others left too hastily and did not have time to notify them.
them.
When nearly 10,000 Canglang Battalion cavalry suddenly appeared behind them, the more than 10,000 Xiongnu troops below the city all stared, looking puzzled.
The Huns were stunned, but the soldiers of the Canglang Battalion who came to the rescue would not be confused. After the second regiment commander Jiu She and the third regiment commander Ma Yihui gave the order, the cavalry launched an attack. They still used the double-barreled muskets to clear the way.
Along the way, gunfire rang out constantly, and many of the Hun soldiers who were very close to each other were sent to see the King of Hell without even figuring out what was going on.
The cavalry came suddenly, and the Canglang Battalion was extremely brave. With the cooperation of the double-barreled muskets, they were invincible wherever they passed. They killed the unprepared Huns and made them cry for their fathers and mothers. It was completely
It's a mess.
No one would have thought that there would be cavalry attacking them, let alone the rear area where they were least likely to come. After all, that was where the Huns army was, and it was the last safe point.
Since the opponent is coming from the rear, doesn't it prove that their rear is no longer safe or even captured?
When this idea appeared in the minds of some Hun cavalry, many of them shook their heads quickly, looking like they couldn't believe it. Behind them were 40,000 elite Hun cavalry, even all the cavalry in Dahua.
Now that they are here, it is impossible not to give them even a little time to pass on the news.
Whether they can figure it out or not, this is the fact. The Canglang Battalion appeared from behind them, and came like tigers coming down the mountain, cutting the Huns infantry into several pieces, and then annihilated them one by one.
The Dahua soldiers and civilians on the Wangcheng Tower also saw this scene, and they shouted excitedly. Especially after seeing the appearance of Canglang Camp, killing the Huns soldiers was as easy as killing a chicken,
Each of them was also excited and proud.
"Let's go help our cavalry." Wangcheng City Guards and the general saw the reinforcements appearing and the overall situation was settled. After some exchanges, they decided to go and help the Canglang Camp. They had no other abilities and were tasked with cleaning the battlefield.
They can always do it.
If the original Canglang Camp still lacked a numerical disadvantage, then as the Wangcheng gate opened from the inside, the heavy iron gate slowly rose, the suspension bridge appeared, and more and more Dahua soldiers and civilians rushed from the city.
After that, even the biggest shortcoming of too few people was made up for.
The next time is naturally an encirclement and suppression campaign. Often a few or a dozen Hun soldiers are facing the siege of Dahua soldiers and civilians who are three times or even five times their number. Under such a situation, with the sound of
After the voice of "surrender without killing" sounded, no matter whether you are willing or not, if you want to survive, you can only choose to surrender now.
Unexpectedly, the Canglang Battalion suddenly came out, leaving more than 10,000 Huns soldiers with no time to react. They were severely wounded, and then they were eliminated. After that, there was only one way left - surrender and spend the rest of their lives fighting.
Atoning for the sins of life.
The Huns' inner camp.
A war broke out in the outer camp and was quickly wiped out. When the Canglang camp began to appear in the inner camp from all directions, the first thought of some Hun commanders of thousands, or even commanders of ten thousand, was to go to General Qi Huai to ask for advice.
But they flew to the main tent, only to find that they couldn't see anyone they wanted to see here. Even the prince and the young master were nowhere to be seen.
They are all veterans of the battlefield, and everyone quickly figured out what was going on. When they thought that the masters had escaped first without even saying hello, what was the point of them staying here to resist?
Even if he died in battle, he could only be regarded as deserved. Thinking of such a result, all the generals showed anger, and then I don’t know who was the first to take the lead out of the main tent, and then he led
He escaped with some of his men.
Yes, he escaped. Not in the direction from which the Canglang camp came, but in the direction of the main camp where the King of the Huns was.
Someone took the lead, and the others were not stupid. They all knew what they should do next. Then one by one they also led their troops to flee, so that in a short period of time, all these generals were gone. By the time Li Chuxiang
When they arrived with the Canglang Battalion, they only encountered slight resistance.
"Chase!" Li Chuxiang, who was riding on a dark war horse, looked at this result and was very dissatisfied.
