Chapter 6: Thinking of Countermeasures to Annoy Hulu
The Xiongnu scout team walked back for an hour before encountering the tribal group behind them.
This Huns bandit consisted of three to four hundred people.
At the front were hundreds of cavalry, led by several barbarians and dozens of cavalry behind them. They were all wearing armor, including Zha armor from the Central Plains and bronze scale armor from the Northern Huns. Most of the ones they held in their hands were
It is the first sword of the Han army.
As for the rest of the people, their bodies were much worse. Some were wearing wooden armor, and some were wearing bone armor. Their bodies were scattered here and there, as if they were covered with films. As for the effect, it's hard to say.
What these people hold in their hands are either short spears or hammers, which are much worse than those in front of them.
After hearing the scout's report, one of the leading Hu generals looked furious and shouted: "Fuck your mother!"
"Han dogs are shameless, you are incompetent, you are a disgrace to me!"
The scouts all dared not speak.
The Hu general felt irritable and turned to look at the team behind him.
The large group behind them included hundreds of Xiongnu infantrymen and hundreds of carts carrying goods.
Behind them, there were hundreds of women with disheveled hair, most of them young, with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes, stumbling along behind the cart.
Behind them is the retreating team of the Hun chiefs.
General Hu felt a little uneasy. They said that the people of Youji were strong and fierce, but a few hunters dared to provoke the Huns scouts. Isn't it abnormal?
Yuan Xi held a telescope and carefully watched the scene more than ten miles away.
There were scattered Hun soldiers in the mountain road, led by hundreds of Huns' light cavalry. Although the valley was quite spacious, these groups of light cavalry were still several rows in front and back, filling the road in the valley.
What is even more strange is that compared to the Huns who were rumored to wear leather robes and rarely wear armor, less than half of this group of cavalry were wearing armor!
Then came hundreds of Xiongnu infantry, walking slowly.
Yuan Xi's face began to look serious.
There are actually quite a few armored infantry!
This is almost catching up with the regular army of the Han Dynasty!
This team is by no means a simple bandit!
Where did their armor come from?
Was it stolen? Or was it given as a gift by someone powerful?
Yuan Xi saw through the telescope again that following the Xiongnu infantry were hundreds of ragged women wearing Han dresses.
They stumbled behind them, and after a slight hesitation, a Hun soldier caught up with them and slapped them on the head and face with a whip.
The cries of these Han women were so loud that they resounded throughout the valley. Even Yuan Xi, who was far away on the top of the mountain, could hear them clearly.
Sun Li heard the sound and couldn't see anything under the tree. He was impatient and wanted to grab the trunk and climb up. The old soldier glared at him, so he reluctantly let go and muttered.
There were hundreds of large baggage trucks in the team, with boxes of food and grass on them. It was obvious that the bandits had stolen a lot of things.
Behind them were hundreds of Xiongnu infantry holding down the formation, and in the middle there were several richly dressed people on horseback, who should be Xiongnu nobles.
This team was estimated to have nearly a thousand people, stretching for several miles in the valley.
Because of the kidnapped woman, the team was not moving fast. Yuan Xi counted the time. By tomorrow at the latest, they would be able to walk out of the valley and head towards Bingzhou. By then, they would be unable to stop them.
Better stop them in the valley!
However, this Xiongnu army was well-equipped and better equipped than the hundreds of soldiers and horses in Yuan Xi's new city in the north. When the two sides met, the outcome was unpredictable.
Although Zhao Yun would send a hundred soldiers and horses over, the other soldiers and horses would stay outside Beixin City to contain them, and Yuan Xi had to keep people in the city for defense.
Although it is unlikely that Zhao Yun will break the contract, things are unpredictable. What if his subordinates take matters into their own hands?
But the current situation is already the most ideal. You must know that it would be difficult for him to deal with either the Xiongnu or Zhao Yun.
Now with a bet, two hundred of the most elite troops on both sides were freed up, and the remaining people were restrained by the confrontation in the new city. Yuan Xi had already made a profit!
Yuan Xi put away the telescope, jumped down from the tree, briefly explained the situation to everyone, and said: "Let's discuss whether we should go back to the city first?"
Several veterans expressed their agreement, but Sun Li looked disappointed. Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Sun Li, if you have any ideas, you can tell me."
Although Sun Li is only fourteen or fifteen years old, he is quite clever and has a good brain. He was rescued by Yuan Xi by chance before, so he became Yuan Xi's personal soldier, so he has been following Yuan Xi.
When Sun Li saw everyone staring at him, he couldn't help feeling panicked. He said, "Whatever brother wants me to do, I will do it. I don't know about the twists and turns."
"But I always feel that if we just leave like this, are we making those bastards' lives too comfortable?"
After hearing this, a veteran said: "Boy Sun Li, in normal times, we would have let Hugou eat a few more arrows, but now we are outnumbered and the enemy is outnumbered. What if the young master is injured by the opponent?"
Sun Li heard this and said, "We won't hit and run?"
"Besides, we will have to fight these bastards sooner or later tomorrow. If we don't kill some of them first, won't we feel more uncomfortable when the fight starts?"
Sun Li said this, which reminded Yuan Xi.
According to the bet between himself and Zhao Yun, he could only use 200 people to fight against the enemy. This group of Huns was difficult to deal with. What if they overturned?
But if the strength of this Huns bandit can be weakened in advance, then the chances of winning here will undoubtedly be much higher!
He looked at the scout team he led. There were seven or eight people in it. They were all good at fighting off bandits in recent years. They were no worse than the Huns' archers, but there were still too few people.
Thinking of this, Yuan Xi said: "We can try to harass them."
"Sun Li, you go back to the city first and let Brother Qu bring the archers over."
Qu is the fake surname Qu Yi gave himself. Although the pronunciation of the two surnames is exactly the same, it just needs to be changed.
Qu Yi has been responsible for training scout soldiers in the past two years and is highly respected by them. It is estimated that there are hundreds of archers available in the city.
It’s not yet the betting time, and although the heads are not counted, the evening is a good opportunity that you can’t miss!
After hearing this, Sun Li quickly mounted his horse.
At the bottom of the mountain road, General Hu saw that it was getting late and ordered most of the troops to stop advancing and camp on the spot.
The bonfire was raised, and the Huns soldiers ate the game they had brought, drank the wine in their skins, and started singing and dancing.
The captive women could only eat coarse and moldy grain cakes, and they all sat on the mud floor, shivering in the cold wind.
A Hun soldier was drunk, so he came over and pressed a woman to the ground. The woman cried desperately, but the other Hun soldiers laughed.
Some of the hundreds of women had their heads lowered, and some had angry expressions on their faces. A few wanted to speak, but their mouths were covered by their companions.
A barbarian general came over, kicked the soldier over, and cursed: "You have eaten the courage of a leopard!"
"These women are presented to the king's tent!"
"I can't even get my turn, but I think it's a good idea!"
The soldier then got up and left angrily.
At this time, General Hu was setting up a large tent and told the leading nobleman about the encounter with the Orion.
Finally, he lowered his head and said, "Son of the noble Shanyu, what should we do?"
The man who was called Shan Yu's son was a man in his thirties, with thin cheeks, curly beard, slender eyes, and a fierce look in his eyes.
He listened to his general's words and didn't take it seriously. The war in the north was endless, who would dare to provoke them now?
He thought for a while and said: "It's just a few hunters. Let's ignore them for now and send out scouts to explore the way forward. If there is no danger, we will set off early tomorrow morning and get out of the valley first."
"Also, pick out some beautiful ones and bring them over."
Not long after, several women were brought in, and miserable cries immediately sounded in the tent.
At the zenith of the moon, on the top of a high mountain, Ju Yi arrived with dozens of archers.
Yuan Xi handed him the telescope, briefly talked about the situation during the day, and finally said: "What is the time now?"
