Chapter 60 - King Xian's Escape at Night (2)
At this time, Zhang Er also arrived in front of the tent of Huhuizhi. I only heard Zhang Er's order: "Give me arrows!" I could only hear a scream coming out of the big tent.
..................................................
At this time, in the distance on the mountain road, I saw dozens of riders, running desperately on the road. It's as if there's Shura behind him. And the one who took the lead was none other than the virtuous king of the Huns - Temujin. Several people fought all the way out of the chaotic army and ran for more than ten miles before they got off their horses and rested in place. Temujin, who had dismounted from his horse, was covered in a cold sweat. Others, on the other hand, are also afraid.
Just as a few people were resting, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in front of the road. In an instant, the spirits of several people, who had just relaxed, immediately tensed up again, and quickly hid in the grass and paper products and held the knife in their hands.
And the man, when he was dozens of paces away from a few people, gradually slowed down the horse's hooves and shouted, "King Xian! King Xian! ”
Temujin and the others gradually saw this person's attire clearly, and the name was Temujin's title, so they cautiously rushed out of the grass. When the man saw that several people came out of the grass, he was also shocked: "Who is it!" ”
"Brother, don't be nervous, I'm Temujin! What tribe are you from? Temujin said in a loud voice.
"Meet the Virtuous King! The villain is a member of the Muhua tribe, and our leader asked me to come to find King Xian! But the man got out of his horse, got down, and fell on his knees.
"Great! Unexpectedly, the leader of Muhua also escaped! Quick, take us to him. When Temujin heard this, the person who came was from the Muhua tribe, and he was overjoyed.
The man answered, and then several men got on their horses and followed him. Then, disappeared into the vast night.
.............................
"Report to the king, this time, except for the Xiongnu Xian King and the leader of the Muhua tribe, the other leaders are all in one go. Captured the Huns, as many as five thousand. The remnants of his body have also been swept away! ”
"Great! Father, the Huns have suffered a big loss this time! As far as the child knows, all the elite of the Huns have been wiped out by us this time! Zhang Ao said overjoyed when he heard this.
But Zhang Er shook his head with a solemn face and said, "Wu'er was happy too early." ”
"Father, what do you mean by that? We've all called them back and killed them, will there be any consequences? Zhang Ao questioned his father's words.
"Alas! Capture the thief and capture the king first. This is true, but that Temujin's talent is still on top of this call! If Temujin is allowed to leak, there will be great trouble in the future! Zhang Er said with a solemn face.
"Then the boy will lead his troops to pursue Temujin! Be sure to get him back! Zhang Ao stood up and pleaded.
"Good! You immediately order 5,000 troops, and you must catch up with Tie Zhen! By the way, the king of Qi has now led 5,000 troops and made a detour to Zhuo County, and I will immediately send a message to him, asking him to quickly send troops to intercept Temujin. ”
"Yes! Go too, kids! Zhang Ao received the order, and immediately ordered 5,000 men and horses to pursue Temujin.
…………
At this time, under the city of Zhuojun, which was hundreds of miles away, there was also wolf smoke. I saw that the Han army under the city tower, under the command of Han Xin, continued to launch onslaught on Zhuojun. Now Zhuo County, under the strong attack of the Han army, is already crumbling.
Looking at the Han army that continued to climb the tower, Jebe was also deeply desperate, after all, Temujin left him only 2,000 men and horses. With the extreme disadvantage of numbers, coupled with Han Xin's strategy, how can this be fought?
Helplessly, when the city gate was broken, Jebel saw the opportunity, and immediately took five hundred elite horsemen and quickly killed from the gate of the east city. When the Han army at the east gate saw it, they hurriedly lined up to block it. But this time, the Han army greatly underestimated the might of the Hun cavalry. As soon as the two armies clashed, the Han army's formation was instantly rushed to pieces. Although there are 1,000 Han troops at the east gate, it is not enough to see in the face of the fierce Xiongnu. Dozens of horsemen were lost in the deal, but the Han army was killed less than 400 people in an instant. Fortunately, the Huns did not entangle with it, and ran away. Otherwise, this Han army is afraid that it will be the result of the annihilation of the whole army.
The remaining more than 400 people, seeing that the Huns were so fierce, did not dare to chase them anymore, but went to send a newspaper to Han Xin and asked Han Xin to find a way. When Han Xin learned about it, he was also surprised. After all, Han Xin didn't expect that the Hun cavalry would be so strong.
In the end, Han Xin made a decision: let go of these Xiongnu and enter Zhuo County first to appease the people. After all, it's still a question of whether you can catch up, and even if you catch up, you may not be able to beat it. Moreover, the people of Zhuo County have been tortured by the Huns, and if they are not appeased in time, they are afraid that they will riot.
And just when Han Xin arrived at the county guard's mansion, which had turned into ashes, Zhang Er's letter also came. After Han Xin saw this, he immediately decided to leave 1,500 people and garrison Zhuo County, and personally led 3,000 people to intercept the fleeing Temujin.
..................................................
At this time, Temujin also successfully joined Muhuali. And the entire Muhuali tribe, which was suddenly cut off by the Han army, also suffered heavy losses, and the Muhuali tribe, which obviously had more than 8,000 people, broke through with less than 3,000 people. This is still Mu Huali's quick reaction, otherwise the loss would be more than that.
After discussing with Muhuali, Temujin decided to lead his troops overnight and go to Zhuojun to join Jebe, and then retreat from Yanmen Pass. Just as the two of them were about to leave, bad news suddenly came - Zhuojun was lost, and the Jebe Department suffered heavy losses, with less than 500 people left. Da Shan died in battle, and his head was hung on the flagpole by the Han army...........
When Temujin and Muhuali listened to one bad news after another. The Han army pursued the soldiers, and the news that they were less than twenty miles away also came. After a while, there were scouts again, and there were traces of Han troops in the rear of the army. Temujin and Mu Huali, unknowingly, fell into the encirclement of the Han army, and people were finally anxious like ants on a hot pot, and they couldn't sit still anymore!
