Chapter 125 - Bloody Battle of Yanmen, Iron Cavalry
North, outside Yanmen Pass.
At this time, Yanmen Pass was already covered with yellow sand. The corpses and limbs are innumerable, and they look extremely desolate.
However, in such a situation, the Han army and the Xiongnu were still engaged in a desperate struggle.
Temujin looked at the tired soldiers around him, and couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart, whether this Yu Danqi would have a personal vendetta because of the dispute over the big order.
……
The war at Yanmen Pass began three days ago.
Three days earlier, Temujin had received information that reinforcements from the Han army had arrived in Mayi. Its owner will be a guy named Liu Xiu.
After hearing this information, Temujin was naturally overjoyed. After all, the other party will be an unknown person. If this is the case, it must lack combat experience.
However, three days earlier, when Liu Xiu had advanced north to Shanwu and Han Shin had attacked from Pingcheng, Temujin had realized that he had underestimated the enemy!
However, what happened next surprised Temujin even more. There is no city of goodness, and it didn't take it for a morning, so it was taken down by Liu Xiu with a trick! This good city is not as steep as it can be said. However, compared to most cities in the Central Plains, its defensive ability is much stronger.
It is hard to imagine that a city garrisoned by 30,000 people was taken by the Han army in one morning. And in the process of fleeing, he was ambushed by Han Xin and lost more than 5,000 people.
However, the pace of the Han army did not stop because of this. That night, he was stationed outside Yanmen Pass!
Facing the more than 100,000 horses of the Han army, Temujin also sighed. He only has 60,000 horses in his hands, and he has no other strengths except for the strength of cavalry.
And the biggest headache for Temujin was that the Han army actually used the strategy of waiting for work. In the evening, while the Hun soldiers were resting, the drums suddenly beat. Scared everyone into rushing to the wall. When everyone on the top of the wall looked fixedly, there was not even a shadow of the Han army under the city tower.
So he went back to the camp to rest, but after an hour the drums sounded again. And just like that, it's been a vicious circle. The Hun soldiers were depressed.
During the day, the well-rested Han army attacked again. His soldiers were so tired that some of them could even fall asleep while standing. How does this kill the enemy?
Fortunately, half a month ago, Temujin and Yu Danqi broke up unhappily because of Da Dan Yu's position. Yu Danqi took 20,000 men and stationed them under the Great Wall.
Later, Temujin asked people to get in touch with him, and it was agreed that at three o'clock this afternoon, because Dan Qi led his troops to appear from behind the Han army, he was taken by surprise by the Han army. But until now, Temujin still hasn't been able to see Yu Danqi's troops.
Now Yanmen Pass is already in a precarious state. Although the single combat effectiveness of the Xiongnu soldiers is much stronger than that of the Han army, they can not even sleep well when they are consumed by the Han army, let alone fight!
…………
The battle lasted another half hour, and by this time Temujin had become a bloody man. On the tower of Yanmen Pass, there are already corpses all over the field.
Temujin, who had just repelled a wave of attacks by the Han army, had collapsed at this time and sat on the ground. Kublai Khan and Jebe, who were not far from Temujin, were not much better off than Temujin at this time.
The three of them sat on the ground, looked at each other, and laughed.
"Father Khan, do you think this will be our last battle?"
"Yes! Da Danyu, Jebel has been following you for more than ten years! I haven't seen any big scenes, today's battle, I'm afraid it will be the last battle between you and my master and servant!"
"Hahahaha! The last battle? Then fight harder! In the Han people, we are called the Xiongnu. However, we grew up on the grassland since we were children, and the degree of danger is not comparable to that of the Central Plains!
Therefore, even if it is the last battle, we must show the courage of wolves! Only Temujin died in battle! There was no surrender of Temujin! Temujin raised his broadsword and shouted loudly as he pointed it to the sky.
At this time, the Hun soldiers also followed Temujin's words to stimulate the blood and wildness in their bodies. The Han army under the city once again launched an attack on Yanmen Pass.
However, at this moment, none of the Hun soldiers present were timid. On the contrary, they were more eager for the Han army to arrive soon. Temujin's words have completely aroused this group of Hun soldiers who have been fighting wolves and beasts on the grassland since childhood.
The battle between the Han army and the Xiongnu began again. This was also the most ferocious battle between the two armies since the beginning of the war. The soldiers who can survive this battle will be warriors who have gone through the baptism of life and death!
At this time, in the Han military camp, the scouts suddenly reported back.
"Report! A large number of Hun cavalry suddenly appeared in the rear of our army, and they were rushing towards our army with all their might! ”
"What?" When Liu Xiu heard the news, he was also shocked.
Ma Yuan, who was standing on the side, heard the news and hurriedly said, "Young master! Later, I will bring someone to intercept it! ”
Liu Xiu immediately agreed, and when Guan Zhang and the three people standing behind Liu Bei heard this, they also hurriedly stood up and asked for orders to intercept the Huns. Liu Xiu also saw this, so he had no choice but to agree.
After all, Liu Xiu had already understood the fierceness of the Hun cavalry before he sent troops. If you can't stop the Hun cavalry that suddenly appeared behind you, I'm afraid that the efforts of the past few days will be in vain!
"Quick! Let people go and inform General Tianbao and King Qi! Let them be careful! ”
……
At this time, the king of Changshan five miles away from Liu Xiu - Zhang Er camp. Zhang Er and the others naturally heard the news that there were Hun cavalry behind them.
Han Xin hurriedly left the camp and personally brought 5,000 people, wanting to resist this Hun cavalry.
However, Han Xin took Han Xin out of the army with 5,000 soldiers and horses. Before they had time to line up, the Hun cavalry, like wild horses, rushed towards the Han army with a strange scream.
The distance between the two sides was less than fifty paces, and the strange screams of the Hun cavalry actually frightened the horses of the Han army. In an instant, I saw the Hun cavalry, which had increased their horsepower and had no order, rushed in front of the Han army.
For a time, the Han army under Han Xin suffered countless casualties, and Han Xin also relied on his own force to protect himself. However, in the face of Han Xin, the Hun cavalry did not do too much entanglement. Instead, he continued to increase his efforts and rushed towards Yanmen Pass.
Han Xin looked at the Hun cavalry that rushed over, and had the heart to resist, but unfortunately, the more than 5,000 people under his command had already made this Hun cavalry tear open a hole and could no longer close it.
Han Xin looked at the Hun iron cavalry in the distance, and wanted to pursue, but he had more than enough strength to do so, looking at the remnants behind him, Han Xin could only reluctantly order a retreat.
At this time, three miles away from the battlefield between the Han army and the Xiongnu, a Han army was marching at great speed under the leadership of four generals and rushing towards this side.
