Outside the south gate of Gaonu City, the Yuezhi troops responsible for the siege were looking at the closed gate.
Just across a city wall, all the men of the Yuezhi tribe could clearly hear the miserable wails of the tribesmen being burned inside. Everyone looked at each other with fear in their eyes.
At this time.
The tribal leader saw that his tribe had become timid and was hesitating whether to attack the city now or wait for orders. Suddenly, he discovered that a large number of Qin cavalry were rushing towards them in the direction of the mountains in the distance.
"It's Qin's cavalry!"
When the tribe leader saw this, he shouted quickly and then took the lead in riding his war horse towards the Qin cavalry.
In an instant, outside the south city gate, nearly 10,000 Yuezhi men turned around and followed the leader to fight the Qin cavalry.
The Yuezhi is different from the Central Plains. In the Yuezhi, except for the Yuezhi royal family, those who can become tribal leaders are all burly and the most powerful people in the tribe. This has always been the tradition of nomadic tribes.
So I saw the Qin army.
The leader is the first person who cannot be timid.
Boom boom boom~!!!
As they got closer and closer to the Qin cavalry, although they were confused as to why the Qin cavalry was not fast, under the leadership of the leader of the Yue clan, all the Yue clan men began to let their horses gallop towards them.
He led the Qin army's cavalry to charge.
While running wildly, all the Yuezhi people raised their bows and pointed them in the direction of Qin's cavalry.
However, before the people of the Yuezhi tribe could release their arrows, arrows had already fallen one after another.
Phew~! Phew~!
Among the countless Yuezhi troops galloping on horseback, a man named Yuezhi was hit by arrows one after another and fell off his horse.
Many of the horses were hit by arrows and lost their balance in an instant. During the gallop, the horses and their men fell down together.
As Qin's cavalry was within shooting range at this time, thousands of Yuezhi people also fired arrows.
Phew~!
As arrows fell one after another, among the Qin cavalry, a famous cavalry officer also fell down after being struck by an arrow.
Bai Yan was riding a war horse and was at the front of the army.
In the rain of arrows, Bai Yan, as the commander-in-chief, did not dare to flinch at this moment. Even if the rain of arrows came, he would rush to the front.
Because just ahead, on the wall of Gaonu City, there are nearly three thousand soldiers risking their lives to stay on the city.
And behind him at this moment, there are no less than 8,000 cavalry soldiers who are willing to follow him.
Looking at the approaching Yuezhi army in the distance, Bai Yan slowly pulled out the Qin sword.
"Back around!"
After Bai Yan pulled out the Qin sword, he suddenly raised it high.
The next moment, the cavalry soldiers beside Bai Yan and behind him all dispersed to the left and right.
Just then.
The Yuezhi army charging from a distance only then saw that along with the formation change of Qin's cavalry, hundreds of cattle suddenly appeared at the front of Qin's cavalry.
When the leader of the Yuezhi tribe saw this scene, his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"spread!"
The tribal leader was not stupid. When he saw the Qin people lighting the tails of the cows, the cows suddenly went crazy and rushed over at extremely fast speeds, knowing the consequences of hitting them.
However, I understand, but in the face of the cow that was suddenly in pain and running madly, even if all the Yuezhi army slowed down and moved around to the left and right, it was already too late.
Bang~! Bang~!
Facing the Yuezhi people who were running diagonally, hundreds of cattle rushed in front like a rampage, instantly scattering the formation of the Yuezhi army.
And this time.
The Yuezhi tribe had no formation and had to face the charge of the cavalry army.
"kill!"
Bai Yan held a sword in one hand and rushed forward. He took the lead and slashed at a Yuezhi man. Then he turned sideways to snatch away the slash from a Yuezhi man and swung the sword again with his backhand.
Bai Yan, who had not killed anyone for a long time, once again had blood on his hands at this moment.
Some Yuezhi people who were hit by cattle were either hacked to death by cavalry soldiers with swords or had their heads trampled on by countless horse hooves before they could get up.
"die!"
Bai Yan held a sharp sword and chopped a Yuezhi man off his horse, then looked at the city wall in the distance.
Seeing that General Jiang Shang had already led the soldiers in the city road and began to slide down the city on ropes, Bai Yan just stopped looking.
"kill!"
Bai Yan saw a Yuezhi man trying to slash at him, so he quickly took the Qin sword and slashed at him with all his strength.
Every inch is longer and every inch is stronger. The bad thing about Qin sword is that it is slightly longer than other swords.
This is the unique advantage of Qin Jian. Generally speaking, bronze swords have a limit. If they are too long and easy to break, it is not good. However, the unique sword-making technology of Qin State allows Qin Jian to ignore this point.
At present, the sword-making craftsmanship is already backward. Even the Yueshi tribe cannot compare with other countries in the Central Plains, and their sharp blades are simply not as sharp as those of Qin.
Not to mention, Bai Yan's sword is still a brand-new iron sword. Sima Chang asked the swordsmith master to forge it himself.
Phew~!
Under Bai Yan's swordsmanship, the Yuezhi man met each other, and with a cold light, there was a wound on his face, blood continued to flow out, and then he slowly fell down.
"kill!!"
"kill!"
Beside Bai Yan, Ye and others were holding Qin swords that had been stained red with blood, and they were shouting angrily while killing the Yuezhi tribe members.
For these Yuezhi people who dared to go south to plunder, Ye and others knew that if the general had not predicted in advance that the Yuezhi and the Xiongnu would go south, all of them would have been killed by the Huns and the Yuezhi.
Phew~!
Accompanied by the sounds of sharp swords piercing the air, followed by roars.
At the beginning of the battle between the Qin cavalry and the Yuezhi tribe, the Yuezhi tribe lost their formation at the beginning. After being seized by the cavalry army, they would never have the chance to counterattack.
After the cavalry army completed dividing the battlefield, under the leadership of a famous cavalry general, the cavalry army immediately divided its troops. Some continued to cut the battlefield, and some began to strangle the scattered Yuezhi people.
The entire battlefield was in chaos, and people kept dying.
You can see everywhere that a man named Yuezhi tribe was killed by the sword of a cavalry officer.
You can also see the body of a famous cavalry soldier lying quietly on the ground all around.
Countless horse hooves trampled on the blood-soaked ground, and figures crisscrossed the battlefield.
Chai, Xi Yuan, Huai, Pei, and Feng Nian, all wearing Qin armor, familiar figures to Bai Yan, were all holding bloody Qin swords and slashing with the Yueshi people at this moment.
After a long time.
Facing the elite cavalry of the Qin State who have been fighting for many years, the Yuezhi tribe lost their chance. Even if they wanted to resist, they were gradually unable to stop the trend of defeat.
Especially after the Qin troops on the city wall came down, they also drew their swords and charged into the battlefield.
Gradually, the Yuezhi's defeat became more and more obvious.
Fortunately at this time.
The sound of a horn was heard in the distance, and when the Qin cavalry heard it, they all stopped to pursue him.
"withdraw!"
Bai Yan held the Qin sword and after killing a Yuezhi man, he ordered all the soldiers to retreat.
Bai Yan, who was riding a war horse, looked at the countless corpses of cavalry soldiers on the ground around him, his eyes slightly red.
Those are the soldiers under his command. If others don't feel sorry for them, he feels sorry for them.
If it hadn't been for the Xiongnu and the Yueshi going south, and if it hadn't been for the immortal Yang Xian, he wouldn't have had a cavalry force to attack the Yueshi tribe today.
Thinking of that day at the governor's mansion, Yang Xian was chatting, laughing, drinking tea, and entertaining guests in the main hall.
Then he looked at the countless corpses of soldiers on the ground in front of him.
Without saying a word, Bai Yan reined in his horse's rope and rode off towards the mountains on his war horse.
After a while.
With the departure of the Qin cavalry.
On the battlefield after the battle, war horses could be seen everywhere, parked on the battlefield.
All the people of the Yuezhi tribe stood on the battlefield full of corpses with the eyes of the survivors, looking at the backs of Qin's cavalry as they left.
Then he looked at a large Huns army coming from the north.
At the North City Gate, Princess Yang Jin was riding on a war horse, her beautiful eyes looking at the city's flames soaring into the sky, filled with confusion.
She thought that the fire would be extinguished by using water. She thought that the fire would dissipate after the wood burned out.
But even if the drinking water brought by the tribe is used up, even if the wooden frame collapses, the fire at the gate of the city is still burning.
At the moment, she could only watch all this, watching the fire in the city continue to burn tens of thousands of Yue clan members.
"Princess!"
A Yuezhi man came to Princess Yangjin on horseback and reported what happened in Nancheng.
