The Han and Hungarians started fighting again, and the battle in Beiguan spread rapidly several times a day, reaching Chang'an and reaching Liu Che's hands.
The army sets off.
Huo Qubing left the team at night... Liu Che was able to learn about it in time.
Unfortunately, entering the grassland was no longer within the territory of the Han Dynasty. Liu Che could not use the Sheji map to show the battle process on the grassland.
He is also waiting for the follow-up of the Battle of Beiguan.
But then came the bad news one after another.
A strong wind rose on the grassland, and the main force of the Han army was caught in it. The situation was not optimistic, and there was no further news all day and night.
Beiguan.
After Wei Qing's army left, various places on the northern front were heavily guarded.
Veteran Li Guang is still responsible for defending the city.
He was standing at the head of the city of Shuofang County, and he seemed to be able to hear the howling wind on the grassland: "This wind is really blowing, and the scouts haven't sent back any news yet?"
"No, many scouts lost their way in the wind, and only two returned, saying that our army seemed to be involved in the area with the strongest winds."
A lieutenant general asked worriedly: "General, do you think our army still has a chance of winning?"
Li Guang is sixty-six years old this year. His beard and hair are slightly white, but he is tall and has tiger-like eyes: "General Wei was well prepared before entering the grassland. He used his troops cautiously and had a good reputation. Let's wait for the news.
But the Huns probably used this method not just to deal with the general."
"General, do you mean that the Huns will attack the border?" The deputy general's expression changed slightly.
Li Guang nodded: "I will definitely do it, but I don't know where to start."
……
Youbeiping County is a large county in the northeast direction of the Han Dynasty.
This is also the frontline battlefield for battles with the Xiongnu over the years.
However, the situation has changed in recent years. With the counterattack of the Han army, the opportunities for direct confrontation between Youbeiping County and the Xiongnu have been reduced.
Relatively speaking, the defense on the northern front this time is also relatively weak in Beiping County.
Just that night, there was also a strong wind outside the border town of Beiping County.
This strong wind covered up the hoofbeats of the Huns cavalry, and at the same time weakened the Han army's vision and hearing.
When the Xiongnu soldiers rode into the city in the early morning, they were very close to the city before the Han army discovered it and alerted them.
The two sides fought bloody battles until dawn, and the border town of Youbeiping County was raging with war and was already in danger.
On the same day, several other border towns were also attacked by the Huns.
The Xiongnu launched an unprecedented strong offensive against the Han border.
There were several cities that they threw into the city with "fire ox", hoping to burn the city to break the barrier.
The news spread back to Chang'an, and those who heard it were shocked.
In recent years, it has been rare for the Huns to directly attack border towns. It was unexpected that this would happen during the main battle of the Han army, and in more than one place.
"How did the Huns know that Youbeiping County was the weak point of this border defense?"
"Look at the troops invested by the Xiongnu, and the cities they chose are all places where our defense is weak!"
The doctor ordered Shi Jian and other generals who stayed behind to be summoned to Liu Che, and everyone looked solemn.
Unexpectedly, if we take the initiative to send troops, the Xiongnu will be the first to attack the city and endanger the border. If the border city is defeated, it will be a heavy loss, and the intention of severely damaging the Xiongnu will be defeated.
"Your Majesty, the Huns have obviously planned something for a long time. They should send orders to the border and instead defend with all their strength!"
"...Your Majesty, please think twice!"
A group of ministers came out one after another.
Zhou Ping, who was on the side, was now more and more convinced that his previous judgment was correct. This time the war started, and he fell into the trap of the Huns.
If you choose to stick to it from the beginning, there will never be an immediate crisis.
"Your Majesty, don't forget that there are nomadic tribes on the western front who may also attack the border..."
Zhou Ping's words were interrupted by Liu Che: "Wait a moment, I believe General Wei will not let the Huns succeed."
————
In the morning, deep in the grassland, a team was riding wildly.
Phew!
The arrow shot through the air, and a bird in the sky was shot and fell.
On horseback, Huo Qubing fired his bow and arrows himself.
The reason is that he vaguely felt that someone, like Liu Qing, had divided his soul and was using birds to try to chase him.
This feeling disappeared after he came to Beiguan.
Huo Qubing suspected that the secret author was using methods to find his own position.
At the front of their team is Huo Qubing, who is holding a two-foot long spear.
The entire team behind him was connected, with a layer of mist surrounding it.
Huo Qubing has activated the miraculous marching plan, promoted the Sea of Knowledge Soldier Talisman, released the power of the Spiritual Turtle of Nourishing Zhi, and gathered his breath to march.
Therefore, his team can penetrate deep into the grassland as if they are invisible.
In his consciousness, the turtle raised his head and breathed in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the ancient characters of the seven techniques of Yin Fu in this scripture appeared around him, flickering.
Their team, after galloping for several days and nights, occasionally resting and eating, had reached the depths of the grassland.
Huo Qubing's perception was fully unleashed on the vast grassland, and he could see all the changes.
Based on their bearings, they should have approached the Qiuba Mountain area and penetrated the Huns' rear area.
"Huo Yaoyao, where should we go?!"
Zhao Ponu was captured by the Xiongnu as a laborer in his early years, and he was far more familiar with the geographical environment of the grassland than others. But at this moment, he was a little disoriented. What he saw was vast and vast, with almost no reference objects.
The grassland in early June is as green as the sea. For people who are not familiar with grasslands, it is simply a natural maze.
"A few miles ahead is the first target!" Huo Qubing said solemnly.
……
The Xiongnu people were born in Ruohou, and they were the nobles of the Huns from the generation of Great Chan Yu Yi Zhixie, and were equivalent to the feudal lords of the Han Dynasty.
When the front line goes out, he is responsible for the rear area. Most of the tribe's elites are recruited to the front line, but the tribe still has a fairly strong defense force.
The Xiongnu also had conflicts with the grassland herders further east, and they had to defend themselves against wolves and other wild beasts.
Therefore, no matter where the Huns camped, sufficient vigilance and combat effectiveness were maintained.
Ji Ruohou's single name has the word "producer" in his name. Although he is old now, he was a general who led troops and horses in the Han Dynasty. He has made great achievements and won Yi Zhixie's respect.
His tribe occupies one of the most lush lands on the grassland, located to the west of Choba Mountain.
The tribe now still has the Han people he plundered as slaves, and even let the Han people breed their heirs.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The wind has been howling on the grassland recently, but behind the Huns, there is no wind or rain, and the sun is shining brightly.
Ji Ruohou Chan was looking south outside the tent.
He had a long and thin face and rough skin. He said to a left-behind nephew beside him:
"This time the Great Chanyu mobilized various tribes to plunder the Han people, and he also had the help of the Great Shaman. Once the Han people are defeated and the new population is snatched back, our tribe can also share some and continue to grow."
"It's a pity that I couldn't go to the battlefield to fight the Han people in person because of the injury I suffered last year."
The strong Xiongnu man behind him has a slight limp in his legs, his hair is tied into a sloppy braid, and there are scars on his face from battles. He looks very ferocious:
"If my injury is on the horse, it will not affect the battle. If I can't go to plunder the Han Dynasty in person, the good things will be divided by other tribes."
Ji Ruohou said: "There are always opportunities for plunder in places where the Han people live... Why are you so anxious?"
"When I grow up, I will also join my Huns army to intercept and kill the Han people and steal their women back..."
On the other side of Ji Ruohou, a Hun child about ten years old curled his lips, his face full of defiance, and he seemed to have a yearning for invading the Han people.
This is an idea passed down from generation to generation and almost engraved in the bones of the Xiongnu.
Going south to plunder can strengthen their tribe!
This child's mother is a Han Chinese woman who was robbed, but now he treats her as a maid.
This is very common among the Xiongnu, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with it.
Several people were talking when they suddenly felt the turf on the ground vibrate slightly.
Ji Ruohou looked slightly alert and turned around and said, "Is it because a large number of horses are running that the ground is shaking?"
"Come here, let's have a look."
The strong man with a scar on his face beside him whistled, and a horse galloped over not far away.
The lame strong man grabbed the horse's neck, got on the horse, and rode away in the direction of the sound of hoofbeats.
He soon climbed up a low hill and looked into the distance.
In the blink of an eye, the strong man rushed back from the low hill on horseback and shouted: "There are Han troops, there are Han troops coming! Hurry, prepare for war!"
His voice came from far away, and Ji Ruohou and others still didn't react.
Han army?
Where did the Han army come from?!
However, the camp moved quickly. There were still nearly a thousand soldiers and horses left behind, and they all stood up with spears in hand and were ready for battle.
Even the Hun child next to Ji Ruohou took out a short spear from the tent and looked excited!
At this moment, mist rolled over the low hills in the distance, and a Han army was flying towards the Xiongnu camp like it was flying close to the ground. The speed and strength made Ji Ruohou Chan instantly stunned.
What a Han army!
Ji Ruohou Chan shouted hoarsely: "Quickly, put up the outer wooden fence!"
At this time, the strong Xiongnu man who was the first to explore the road rode back to the tribe, reached out and grabbed a wooden spear inserted outside the tent, shouted, and someone threw him a leather shield in the air.
The strong man turned his horse's head with a shield and a spear, and said with a ferocious smile: "There are not many Han troops. If they dare to come to the grassland, let me kill them!" He rushed towards the oncoming Han troops and killed them.<
/p>
Behind him, the Huns also reacted quickly and rode to follow him.
Han and Hungary have been at war for many years, and there are many blood feuds. The only option is to fight to the death!
In a blink of an eye, the strong man was the first to approach a general in front of the Han army, roaring like a wolf, with a murderous look on his face.
The number of Han troops was not greater than that of their tribesmen. After the initial panic, the Huns were not afraid.
At the rear, Ji Ruohou Chan couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope.
The strong Xiongnu man named Godot was a warrior of their tribe. If he could kill the leading Han general, they might still have hope of victory...
In front of the Han army, Huo Qubing was riding, and he saw the Huns rushing over.
The spear in Huo Qubing's hand vibrated slightly, and he stabbed out with a cold light like lightning.
His body, which is not strong, seems to contain overwhelming power.
There was a soft sound, and the leather shield raised by the strong Hun man opposite was actually penetrated by a spear. The terrifying force penetrated his chest.
Under the huge impact, his whole body collapsed, blood mist oozed out, and he died instantly.
A sudden silence!
The power of Huo Qubing's spear shocked the Huns who followed him.
Ji Ruohou watched Gordo being knocked off his horse in front of him, a chill surged from the bottom of his heart, and his whole body trembled!
It’s over!
The Hun child also began to be afraid at this time.
His uncle Godot, whom he respected and admired the most, was stabbed to death by the Han general!
Are the Han people so powerful?!
The sound of hoofbeats was like thunder, and the Xiongnu tribe who rushed out collided with the Han army in an instant, and then were submerged and disappeared.
The other Xiongnu tribes were defending their tribes, hoping to confront the Han army.
Outside their tribe, a dead bone in the shape of an animal's head was hung to show their bravery, and a strong wooden fence was erected around it, which has strong resistance.
When the Han army rushed in, shamanic incantations appeared on the wooden fence, doubling its defense power, and the entire tribe seemed to be connected together by a force of energy.
However, when the Han army came closer.
The military aura on their bodies gathered together, and they looked like a giant tortoise. It was as big as a mountain and its body was made of iron. It matched the team and crashed into the wooden fence outside the tribe.
Click!
The attack is like thunder and the momentum is like a heavy mountain!
Under the urging of the military talisman, the spirit turtle of Yangzhi joined forces with thousands of troops. The wooden fence exploded instantly and was smashed open.
Jiruo Houshan let out a low groan from his throat and his pupils contracted.
What kind of power is needed to break through the defensive wooden fence of their tribe that was blessed by the shaman with one blow!
The people in the tribe were shocked by this blow and fell into silence. They no longer had the excitement from the battle just now.
It's all over!
The Han army rushed into the camp with lightning speed.
Half an hour later, there was blood everywhere in the camp, and Ji Ruohou Chan was forced to kneel in front of Huo Qubing's body.
"Are you a relative of the Xiongnu Chanyu?" Zhao Ponu asked in Xiongnu language.
Ji Ruohou Chan spat: "Kill if you want, we Huns are never afraid of death..."
"Owl leader!" Huo Qubing ordered coldly.
Some Han soldiers raised their swords and beheaded hundreds of Xiongnu prisoners who were kneeling on the ground.
Ji Ruohou's eyes twitched, this Han army was so vicious and bloodthirsty.
He suddenly thought that if this Han army was allowed to gallop in the rear of the Huns, the Huns' losses would be unimaginable... This was also his last thought, and he was beheaded the next moment.
"Let's go to the next place!"
Huo Qubing's goal has just begun. He not only wants to penetrate the Huns' defense, but also wants to make the entire Huns fear his name forever!
The Han army rode away like wind and lingering clouds.
……
Yi Zhixie was having lunch in the tent with a smile on her face.
In this battle, the Huns have taken the initiative and are only waiting to further expand the results.
Yi Zhixie was very much looking forward to a great victory and by consuming the main force of the Han people, the Han army would not be able to organize an effective resistance against the Xiongnu for several years.
He can use this time to annex the Western Regions first, further strengthen the Xiongnu, and then deal with the Han people later.
The rich Han land will once again become the 'pasture' of the Huns, allowing them to plunder.
In front of him was a beautiful woman in her thirties, kneeling down and helping him shave off the sheep bones.
She is Yi Zhixie's maid, and she is always with him, because this woman is the descendant of a princess who was married to the Huns at that time, and has a distinguished status. Every time Yi Zhixie sees her, he will remember that the Huns suppressed the Han people and forced them to
The glory of marriage.
"Well..."
The woman groaned, but Yi Zhi stretched out his hand and pinched her face, casually doing it for fun, but the force was so strong that the woman felt pain and her body trembled slightly.
Yi Zhixie chuckled. At this moment, he discovered that the writing on the territorial map hanging in his tent was distorted.
He's not surprised.
Since two years ago, a "secret person" has been contacting him.
During his expedition this time, he also benefited from the news sent by this person regarding the border defenses of the Han people.
However, Yi Zhixie soon discovered that the words that appeared on the territory map this time were as scarlet as blood.
The news from the secret man was that a Han army had made a surprise attack on the Xiongnu rear and had reached the west of Qiaoba Mountain...
Yi Zhi tilted his head and squeaked slightly.
The advantage in this battle is clearly with the Xiongnu. Where did a Han army come from to raid the rear?
He has a clear grasp of where the main force of the Han army is, and is preparing to engage in battle with it and win a great victory.
Yi Zhi took a piece of mutton and put it into his mouth, chewing it slowly and thinking to himself.
If it were not the main force of the Han army, how useful would it be if it went to the rear of the Xiongnu? The remaining troops would not be without combat effectiveness.
Want to raid the rear of my Huns... Yi Zhi smiled sideways.
