Chapter 169: The First Battle Is Leaving No One Behind
Early the next morning, the army departed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info More than 10,000 cavalry, like a tiger out of the gate. Swallow the world.
Due to the abandonment of the baggage troops. Everyone in the legion was on horseback, and the speed was terrifying. Some of the soldiers were born and raised here by the Huns, and they were well aware of the hydrology, land, and tribal forces in various places. On the first day of leaving the fortress, Huo Qubing led his troops on a long-distance journey of 300 miles, and arrived at the periphery of a tribe in the evening.
Huo Quzhi was lying on a hill, looking at the camp in the distance, holding a map and asking, "Is this the territory of the King of Zhelan, and how many people are there?" ”
Li Dang glanced at the map and said, "It is estimated that there can be seven or eight thousand troops, and the population is about thirty thousand." ”
Huo Quzhi looked at the horse farm in the camp from a distance and said: "There are not many livestock, you can see a maximum of 1,000 horses." Li dared to say: "Last year's snow disaster, there is no way to do anything, can you take him under the knife?" ”
Huo Quzhi nodded: "En, let Zhao Ponu take two people and go straight to the horse farm to the right wing, and Wan Ziyu lead two people to the left wing and go straight to the big tent." The rest of the men followed me and attacked from the middle. Whoever succeeds first will be killed and surrounded. Let's go. ”
Li Dang was about to issue an order, but when he saw that Huo Quai's personal guard behind him was extremely thin, he was surprised in his heart, and looked at it, why did he look so much like Lord Neisi, uh, like Her Royal Highness the Princess. Obediently, this sick worm brought his wife to war?
Huo Quzhi saw that Li Dang was looking at Xue Qing in a daze, and reprimanded: "If you don't go to give the order, what are you doing in a daze." ”
Li Dare pointed at Xue Qing: "This ,...... This...... How do you give Her Royal Highness the princess ......"
Huo Quzhi pretended to say, "What? You say he? Are your eyes frightened, this is my own soldier. Do you think you look like my princess? ”
Li Dang nodded stunned.
Huo Quzhi turned around and asked Tianbao: "Do you think it looks like it, why don't I think it looks like it at all." ”
Tianbao couldn't help laughing: "Maybe there are three points like it, after all, everyone has two eyes and one nose." Let's look at the Huns, don't we think they all look the same? ”
Huo Quzhi said categorically: "I don't think it's like it at all." Li Kang, do you have a problem with your brain, it's not like it at all. ”
Li Dare was stunned for a moment, is it really not like it? It's very similar. was urged by Huo Qu's illness again, so he went to convey the instructions with a sense of confusion.
The prairie is peaceful. It was almost evening, and most of the people had already returned to the tribe, preparing to light a fire and cook, and the camp was full of singing and laughing.
Suddenly, there was a faint and dull thunder in the sky, and the experienced old soldier's face instantly turned wrong. I wondered where the large number of cavalry came from at this time, and it was another tribe that came to sneak attack? It was still the main force of the Huns' cavalry who crossed the border, and they didn't receive a notice to prepare dinner for them.
A dazzling red suddenly appeared on the hillside, different from the softness of the sunset, and it poured down the hillside at a rapid pace, with red flags, red flags, and battle robes. Extremely fast gallop coming.
The Huns panicked: "Han army, the Han army is coming, hurry up and prepare for battle, and the archers are assembled." ”
The scattered bows and arrows did not stop the red torrent. Between a few breaths. The arrows of the three cavalry teams were inserted into the camp as smoothly as knives cutting tofu.
Xue Qing stood on the hill on the side and watched, if only there was popcorn, no Hollywood blockbuster has such good visual effects. But if it's a telescope, Xue Qing is afraid that she will vomit. From such a distance, the broken hands and feet, the intestines are full of blood, and I can't really see it, only to see that the Han army is invincible, and the Huns are defeated.
One is prepared, the other is not. What's more, the Han army is full of elite fighters, and the Huns have many old people. War is cruel.
The sun hasn't set yet. The battle is over. Kneeling by the river were more than 20,000 shivering Huns.
Huo Quzhi let out a sigh of relief, stuck the halberd on the ground, and took off his helmet. Zhao Ponu rode over on horseback, carrying a human head in his hand: "General, the dog head of the king of Zhelan, originally wanted to be captured alive, but he resisted desperately, and was cut down by the last general." Huo Quzhi glanced at it: "You said yes." Zhao Ponu smiled innocently, and said with blood stains on his face: "There is a seal." Didn't run. ”
Huo Quzhi nodded: "Even if you copy it, hurry up and clean up the battlefield and get ready to go." ”
Li dared to question: "General, what about the seizure, there are still more than 20,000 people kneeling over there." ”
Huo Quzhi snorted coldly: "We only have more than 10,000 people, do we want to continue the war with 20,000 prisoners?" I don't want to be seized. ”
Li dared to stagnate: "Don't want it?" Tens of thousands of livestock. If you don't want it, forget it, what about people. ”
Huo Quzhi said contemptuously: "Look at it." ”
Li Dang's face was cloudy for a while. Zhao Ponu persuaded in a low voice: "The general is right, let's go deep alone, we can't be dragged down, let's kill it." ”
Li dared to brush his sleeves away. Zhao Ponu sighed, then turned around and ordered the whole army to kill all the prisoners.
All of a sudden, there was a lot of grief. The blood pooled and stained a large area of the river red.
Xue Qing petrified on the hillside. It's all in an instant. The Huns are all dead. Leaving behind corpses in a place, and cattle, sheep and horses that run around and no one cares. The Han army grabbed some sheep and put them on the saddle. And they left the camp. It came and went like the wind, leaving only a hellish scene. Only then did Xue Qing know how the God of War was refined, it was the forging of blood and fire, and it was the tempering in the sea of corpses and blood. That's not romantic heroism, it's not pretentious written pride. It's the killing of Chiguoguo.
How many lives will Huo Quzhi have in the end, will there be retribution, will he have no eyes when he gives birth to a son, Xue Qing didn't dare to think about it. Until Huo Quzhi wiped the blood from his face, rushed back to his side, smiled brightly, and waited for his beloved to welcome him back victoriously.
Xue Qing couldn't laugh. All I had in my mind was the lingering smell of blood, which permeated everything.
The army marched along the river. When it was dark, they stopped and set up camp. And he skinned all the captive sheep and boiled the soup. Sprinkled the scouts and settled down.
Huo Quai's cooks took some of the more tender parts of the sheep and made some delicate side dishes. Huo Qu was full of joy and walked towards the camp tent with a tray, but was blocked by Tianbao at the door. Tianbao didn't let him in, saying that His Highness was not feeling well.
Huo Quzhi was very puzzled: "Isn't it still good in the afternoon, is it not suitable for water and soil?" ”
Tianbao whispered: "No, Your Highness is merciful by nature and can't be killed, so I can't bear it." It's hard to sleep and eat. ”
Huo Quzhi was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Why bother, tell her not to follow, isn't it like this to fight." Then he said: "Then I won't go in, maybe Xue looks at me like a butcher covered in blood or something, I'll ask someone to make some porridge and side dishes in a while, and you let Ruhua persuade her to eat anyway." This is no better than the mainland. If you don't have enough to eat, you won't have the strength, and tomorrow you will have to force the army. ”
Tianbao bowed down. (To be continued.) )
