Chapter 267: The Battle of the Blackwater Camp (3)

Meng Li fled for his life in the direction of Yancheng with the soldiers who had escaped, and ten miles behind them were 10,000 elite Hun soldiers led by Tu Naji, the commander of the Huns. Although most of Tunaji's men were foot soldiers, there were not a few cavalry, not to mention that the Huns fought immediately more than on the ground, so when they caught up from the battlefield, many running Huns found horses on the battlefield, and then continued to pursue the fleeing Qin army.

The distance from the Huns was getting closer and closer, and the archers placed by Mengli outside the battlefield did not play much role, because the arrows were almost used, so after symbolically placing the last wave of arrows, the archers also escaped after Mengli.

After running for a certain distance, Meng Li had already felt that the speed of the war horse under his crotch was gradually slowing down, and after such a long battle, Meng Li and all the soldiers of the Meng family army who were with him were already very tired. Now there are still 10,000 Huns in hot pursuit, and the distance between the two teams is getting closer and closer, Meng Li understands that if this continues, he will definitely be caught up by the Huns behind him within the warning range of Yancheng, and then die on the battlefield.

Seeing that the speed of the Qin army fleeing in front of him slowed down, Tunaji secretly laughed in his heart, how can the war horses of the Qin army be compared to the war horses of the Huns, their war horses are all trained from childhood, and they run on the grassland every day, whether it is endurance or explosiveness, their war horses are much stronger than the war horses of the Qin army.

Tunaji's nervous heart gradually began to relax at this time, but the speed of the war horse under him was not slow at all, and even under Tunaji's excellent riding skills, the speed seemed to have increased a little.

"General Mengli, the Huns behind are about to catch up with us, what should we do?" Zhang Kui asked nervously behind Mengli. After being a general in the Heishui Battalion for a few years, he felt that life here was not bad, without the jurisdiction of his boss, and there was nothing else to do every day except training.

Meng Li looked back at the back, Zhang Kui was right, the Huns had indeed chased behind their butts, and in less than half an hour, the soldiers at the back of the team were about to be caught up by the Huns.

"Keep running, the further we run, the more hope we have of encountering reinforcements, and if we stop, we can only wait for death. Meng Li said. He calculated on the road just now, according to this time, if he didn't return to the barracks, Meng Tian would definitely be suspicious, and the possibility of meeting the Huns here was even greater than the possibility of meeting the Qin people, and if he didn't go back, the general must have thought that he had encountered an accident, and he would definitely come out to find himself.

Sure enough, after running forward not far, Meng Li found that there was the sound of horses' hooves on the road in front of him, and when he looked closely, a plain black and dark banner was moving quickly towards him, and the big word "Meng" on the banner also showed the identity of the army in front.

Meng Li was a little excited and wanted to cry, and he shouted loudly: "Soldiers, our reinforcements are coming! Reinforcements are coming!"

Hearing Meng Li shouting that reinforcements were coming, the soldiers of the Qin army who had no fighting spirit who had been chased and killed suddenly burst into a great array, and when they looked forward, the reinforcements led by Meng Tian were already very close to them. Seeing that it was their own reinforcements, everyone cheered.

Tunaji saw that the prey in front of him suddenly thought like he had lost his mind and began to dance on his horse, he didn't know what was going on, and he thought that these people were frightened by his pursuers and went insane.

Tunaji continued to lead the troops to chase and kill, and he was about to catch up with these fleeing remnants of the Qin army, how could he give up. Regardless of whether these people were suffering from hysteria or because of something else, Tunaji was determined to kill these Qin people.

Meng Tian finally received Meng Li, and after seeing the bloodstains on Meng Li's body and the Qin soldiers behind Meng Li, Meng Tian didn't have time to speak, when he saw the Hun pursuers chasing after Meng Li's team shouting and chasing up.

Meng Tian nodded at Meng Li, and then led his men and horses towards the Huns who were chasing.

Tunaji finally knew why his prey reacted the way he did when he caught up with them, and the feeling was that their reinforcements had already arrived. It's good that he can have more military exploits in his account today, since these Qin people are in a hurry to send them to death, as a hospitable person, of course Tunaji will not refuse. 400

Meng Tian rode a horse and still walked at the front of the team, and the first thing that caught his eye was the burly Huns. Looking at the horse he rode and the outfit on his body, he should also be a general of the Huns, Meng Tian thought in his heart.

Meng Tian's men and horses and Tunaji's pursuers did not give each other a chance to repair at all, after missing Meng Li and their people, the Qin army and the Hun pursuers directly fought together, which was also the first time that the cavalry of the Mengjia army and the cavalry of the Huns had a big battle of direct contact, so they fought.

Meng Tian took the lead in handing over to Tunaji, Tunaji's figure was more burly than Meng Tian's, and the strength on his body would naturally be greater, but the Xiongnu scimitar in his hand was not of good material, and he was not the opponent of the real sword in Meng Tian's hand at all. As soon as the two of them fought, Zhengang's sword almost split in half with a single sword.

Seeing that the scimitar in his hand was not the opponent's one-in-one enemy at all, Tunaji was startled, and his eyes were full of greed when he looked at the true sword in Meng Tian's hand. Tunaji didn't know that this was a divine soldier created by the people of the Central Plains, and he didn't know that his opponent would be the leader of the most elite legion of the Qin State, if he had a clear understanding of the combat strength of the Qin army, I am afraid that the moment he saw Meng Tian who led his troops to support, he should have retreated.

It's a pity that Tunaji doesn't know anything, he is now only thinking about how to deal with these fleeing Qin troops and their reinforcements, so that he can not only avenge his sworn brothers, but also make a big deal of his military exploits, which are enough to make him a hero of the Huns.

The Qin reinforcements and the Huns' pursuers fought together, although the Qin army's equipment was much better than that of the Huns, but the Huns' horsemanship was better than that of the Mengjia army's cavalry. So the cavalry of two different ethnic groups fought together, and for a while the two armies were tied. The soldiers of the Mengjia army rode on horses and used their own weapons to stab the Hun cavalry, and although the Hun cavalry could not beat the Mengjia cavalry with weapons, they could rely on superb riding skills to dodge the opponent's attack.

After all, it was a big battle of nearly 20,000 people, and there must have been casualties, although the Huns' riding skills were better, but these advantages were far from enough to make up for the gap in equipment between them and the Qin army. The cavalry immediately clashed, and the side that used short weapons certainly did not have the advantage of the side that used long weapons, not to mention the cavalry of the Mengjia army of the Qin State who was equipped with spears in the whole army, although you could dodge the first shot, but what about the second and third shots?

After two moves with Meng Tian, the scimitar in Tunaji's hand has been cut in half by Meng Tian's Zhengang sword, but fortunately, Tunaji's war horse still has a captured Qin army war knife, which is the trophy of Tunaji's killing of a Qin army general, and has always been regarded by him as his beloved. Once a captain of another tribe was willing to exchange this long knife with him for a thousand cattle and sheep and a concubine of his, but Tunaji was not willing to give it, but he did not expect that this knife could save his life today.

Meng Tian's True Gang Sword is actually not an artifact that sharpens gold and iron, but compared to those weapons of mediocre material, it is difficult not to be cut under a sword. But the weapons of the Qin army were carefully cast by the craftsmen of the Qin army, and there was also Lao Zhou's contribution in this. Lao Zhou carefully matched the ingredients of the weapons manufactured by the Qin army, and the hardness and toughness of the Qin army's long knife and sword were relatively good, so the Qin army's long knife in Tunaji's hand fought hard with Meng Tian's true sword for more than a dozen rounds, and it was only a gap in the blade, but it was not cut off.

Of course, Meng Tian recognized that the weapon in the hands of this Hun general was a weapon that only the general level in the Qin army could have, so it was no wonder that he dared to fight with himself. And the strength of this Hun general is really not small, his arms are a little numb now, and seeing that he is still like a nobody, he is also a battle-hardened figure.

After the initial confrontation, the soldiers of the Mengjia army gradually mastered the law of the Huns' horsemanship, and then fought almost as a one-sided massacre, killing the Hun soldiers without the power to fight back.

Tunaji saw that his men were not the opponents of the Qin army, he knew that he had encountered a strong enemy, and if he continued to fight, his people would definitely be left here by this Qin army. Although he made a promise with the big leader, he couldn't go back and be punished at most, and if he continued to stay here and fight, I am afraid that his life would not be his own.

Tunaji forced Meng Tian and his mount back with a single sword, and shouted, "Who are you? You are very powerful! I, Tunaji of Kazakun, am no match for you." ”

Meng Tianle stopped his retreating mount and replied, "I am Meng Tian, the general of the Mengjia Army of the Great Qin Empire, can you remember?"

Meng Tian: What a familiar name. Tunaji felt as if he had heard the name come to him, but he didn't remember it at this point. He turned his horse's head and retreated with his hand in fright. A voice came from afar: "Meng Tian, you wait, I, Tunaji, will come back to you for revenge!"
