"It's time to tell everyone. ”

Yang Pingfan said, "Your prestige has been established, and now is the best time." ”

So Huo Qubing summoned the middle and lower-level officers, announced to them the true purpose of the trip, and rushed thousands of miles to attack the Xiongnu royal court.

Everyone showed an expression of "I already knew", the army not only went deep into Mobei alone, but also cut down a tribe, the matter has come to this point, and it is impossible to oppose it, so you can only go to the dark one way.

"I respectfully obey the orders of the Captain. The officers said in unison.

"From tomorrow onwards, speed up the pace, Marshall will not stop, and go straight to the royal court!

Huo Qubing drew his sword and stuck it in the sand, strengthening his determination.

The old soldiers were depressed on the march, and the guards were repeatedly bullied by the Huns, and the killing just now made them vent well, and they were all excited, and they all expressed their full support for the decision of the captain.

Seeing this, Huo Qubing thought thoughtfully, Yang Pingfan did not have any objections, this is the Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years away from the baseline time and space, and the experience of traveling many times has made him understand that it is necessary to respect the cultural environment of the era in which he lives, and to talk about what kind of humanitarianism and preferential treatment of prisoners, it is a stupid behavior.

It was late at night, but Huo Qu was sick but couldn't sleep, walking outside the tent with a sword, and found that there was also a silhouette next to the bonfire, which was the master.

"Why, can't you sleep, is it because you killed so many people today?"

Yang Pingfan threw a piece of firewood into the bonfire, looked at Huo Quzhi, Huo Qubing nodded subconsciously, and then shook his head resolutely, "How come, I also killed people when I was in Chang'an." ”

Yang Pingfan smiled and didn't speak, Huo Quzhi looked at Yang Pingfan, and his side face was inexplicably vicissitudes and profundity under the firelight, "Master, we only have a few hundred people, and the Hun army has hundreds of thousands of people, can it really be done?"

As soon as this remark came out, Yang Pingfan was stunned for a moment, and then he was relieved, even if he was born with the god of war, he also needed to understand his opponent, "The Xiongnu is a nomadic people, as the name suggests, they have no fixed place, breed livestock, and chase water and grass, so when marching and fighting, there are also their own livestock, property, wives and children with the soldiers, that is, the so-called war rules and family property go hand in hand, and Ben and animal husbandry flee, so the hundreds of thousands of troops reported in detail are actually counted in the relatives of soldiers and herdsmen." ”

Huo Quzhi suddenly realized when he heard this, and Yang Pingfan simply taught people to fish, "So how should our army deal with the disposition of the Huns?" Huo Quzhi shook his head and looked dazed.

"Do you know how to run thousands of miles, interspersed with division and encirclement?"

Yang Pingfan showed a mysterious smile, "It just so happens that there is nothing to do tonight, and I will give you a good nagging for the teacher...... When attacking the enemy, concentrate on breaking through one point, and after succeeding, quickly expand the results of the battle, and cooperate with the frontal attack and the flank roundabout encirclement, division, and intersperse, that is, slam the blow, rush, and chase the ......"

The 800 cavalry rested for the night beside this small oasis, recuperated their spirits, and set out on the journey again, all the way north, continuing deep into the desert.

The front is no longer the Gobi Desert, but the endless quicksand, the quicksand is like water, changing with the wind, there are still dots of green on the Gobi, the quicksand area is full of yellow, when the wind rises, the sandstorm that soars into the sky, covers the sky and the sun, the direction is unknown, the people and horses are like ants, it is not uncommon to be buried alive, it is completely the place of death.

But only by taking this road can we avoid the soldiers of the Huns, and even their nomadic tribes, Huo Quai, sent a group of ten people to ride, with most of them as the center of the circle, constantly sweeping the territory within ten miles, leaving no living mouth, this is the hinterland of the Huns, the nomads fought at the door of the house, familiar with the environment, and all the routes that the Han army would pass through were all figured out, in order to keep secrets, had to do so.

The Xiongnu royal court also knew that the Han army entered the grassland desert in a big way, made corresponding deployments, and hundreds of thousands of troops defended separately, and they would bite back when they saw the opportunity, but no one expected that a strange army was passing through the desert area, like a sharp dagger, from the most unbelievable angle to the soft lower abdomen of the Huns.

After tearing off the camouflage of "training", everything entered a state of imminent battle, 800 cavalry were eating and drinking Lazar on horseback, the side effects of long-distance training began to appear, the veterans of the team themselves were old, and there began to be a phenomenon that some people were physically exhausted and could not keep up with the speed of the team. I love Chinese.com

The ending of being lost in the desert can be imagined, three hundred miles of desert, devouring the lives of more than 200 soldiers and 500 war horses, and the rest are tough guys who have experienced the test of life and death, from their will to their bodies.

After the six hundred knights came out of the desert, they couldn't find the shadow of the cavalry of the Han Dynasty at all, they looked like herdsmen who had lived in the desert for many years, with scruffy beards, foul smells all over their bodies, and their robes are dirty.

The only thing that can be identified is the sharp ring knife made of fine iron in his hand.

Even if it is Huo Quai, at this moment, he has faded the brilliance of his son, and he is as unkempt as an ordinary soldier, the deeper he goes into the desert, the farther away from the Central Plains, Yang Pingfan has no time to fly back and forth to buy things for him, fortunately, Huo Qubing is worthy of the name of the god of war in history, and he has grown extremely fast, and he is no longer the master who lost his temper when he drank the smelly water at the beginning, but completely mingled with the soldiers, and his personal prestige was completely established.

The cavalry rushed out of the desert with a gently undulating hill in front of it, through which a river flowed, bringing with it a verdant oasis meadow, and the cavalry captured a few herdsmen, and learned that their long-sought goal was in front of them, and that fifty miles further they were alone in the royal court.

Alone in the royal court is not a fixed location, the nomads live in the water and grass, the royal court is also mobile, it is difficult for the Han army to find the location of the royal court, now the main force of the Han army led by Wei Qing is hundreds of miles away, the interior of the royal court is peaceful, and there is not much garrison force.

Surrounding the court were members of the royal family and their servants, as well as the most loyal relatives of the Praetorian Guard, mostly old and weak, women and children, laughing and laughing, waiting for the triumphant return of their sons and husbands, carrying with them the plundered wealth and slaves as usual.

But what they were waiting for was the butcher's knife of the Han army.

The wee hours of the morning were the most exhausted and lazy time for the people, the Hun court was silent, everyone was asleep in sweet sleep, and even the sentries sneaked to the campfire to roast and drink.

The noble Lord Luo Gubi is lying in the warm fur quilt, beside him are two Han beauties with skin like clotted fat, the Huns have to go south every year to fight the grass valley, robbing everything that can be taken away, gold and silver, livestock, pots and pans, and of course, the population, the Huns grew up in the bitter cold land, and the women are rough and ugly, so the Central Plains women are the most sought-after goods, Luo Gubi is Shan Yu's uncle, and has a lot of wealth, including tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, hundreds of slaves in the Central Plains, these two women are two of them.

Tonight is a daily night, Lord Luo Gubi drank a lot of mare's milk wine, indulged in indulgence and then fell asleep, but when he was old, his kidneys were not strong, and he was woken up by urine in the middle of the night, Luo Gubi muttered and woke up to release water, remembering that he heard his Central Plains slaves say that there are immortal cultivators in the south, and thought about asking first when he grabbed it next time, and grabbed a few such people to come over and cure his old problem of urinating at night.

Suddenly, there was a subtle sound in my ears, like the beat of a drum, and like thunder, but for the peoples of the steppe, there was only one source of this sound, and that was the rhythm of the horses' hooves hitting the earth as the cavalry charged.

Luo Gubi was a little suspicious of his ears, this is not the frontier front, but the Xiongnu royal court, the nearest Han army is also five hundred miles away, and there are scouts everywhere twenty miles around the royal court, it is impossible for anyone to touch such a close place.

But he still got up, and he didn't care if his pants fell to the ground, he lay on the carpet and listened with his ears to the ground, and suddenly his face turned pale, yes, it was the sound of horses' hooves, and it was definitely not his own people, it was the Han army, because his own cavalry was not so extravagant to put shoes on the horses, and the heavy sound of horses' hooves was obviously only owned by the cavalry of the Han army.

Luo Gubi was directly scared to pee, and hurriedly went to put on a robe, the desert in March was still the cold season, and he was going to freeze to death if he fled naked, and when he put on his robe and took the saber, the sound of horses' hooves was already approaching the tent, he opened the tent, and saw the sparks approaching rapidly,

Suddenly, those sparks were ejected like meteors, like a rain of fire in the sky.

The fire rain fell into the camp, countless tents were ignited, the cold wind blew, the fire borrowed the wind, the fire quickly practiced into a piece, the unsuspecting Huns escaped from the tents, scattered and fled, trampled on each other, the sound of crying father and mother, of course, there were many guards who stayed behind and rushed to the enemy with weapons naked, desperately resisted, but became the ghost of the cavalry.

The screams, the clatter of the tent falling to the ground, the moans before death, and the screams of terror all mingled to create a post-apocalyptic scene.

This scene Luo Gubi is too familiar, every time the Hun cavalry swept through the Han villages and towns, it was like this, a stormy charge, hacking all the lives on the way forward, the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and finally it was time for the Huns to bear all this.

Before Huo Qubing took most of the charge, Yang Pingfan left the army first, his senses were fully opened, and he marked all the Hun scouts around the royal court, followed by the ability to expand, and at this moment in the dark night, the greeting of death came silently and cleaned up all the scouts.

Six hundred cavalry approached a mile from the royal court and began to charge, unbuttoning their heavy leather robes, laying down their water bladders and dry rations, carrying only bows and arrows and long knives, lighting rockets and mounting them on the bowstrings, and then driving their horses.

One mile is the best distance for the heavy cavalry to charge, just enough for the cavalry to reach the highest speed, and not to start losing strength because of the long distance, the sudden cavalry charge swept towards the Xiongnu court like a tsunami.
