At the beginning of the morning, Xue Andu and Su Ji led an army of 20,000 to a position twenty miles northeast of the Rouran army camp.

"Stop advancing, send someone to contact the scouts who are monitoring here, General Ben wants to know the specific situation of the Rouran Army twenty miles away!"

"No!" Su Ji immediately arranged.

The army stopped advancing, the horses gasped, and the soldiers began to feed the horses with water and food, and they themselves ate something and drank some water, and solved the problem of urinating and urinating, and the war was about to start, and everything must be prepared.

Soon, Su Ji came over with a scout and reported to Xue Andu: "General, this is Xu Li, the head of the scout who has been monitoring the Rouran Army here!" ”

Xu Li, the head of the scout soldiers, saluted Xue Andu: "The villain has seen the general!" ”

Xue An looked at Xu Li and nodded: "Xu Bingtou and the brothers have worked hard, what is the specific situation of this Rouran army?" Who is the leading general? ”

"Back to the general, the villain only had the opportunity to infiltrate the vicinity of the Rouran camp two days ago, and it took the mosquitoes who fed it all night to find out, and the cat hid in the weeds and burrows during the day for a whole day, and only had a chance to withdraw at night! This Rouran cavalry has a full 20,000 horses, only 10,000 at first, and later transferred 10,000 troops from the north, and the leading general is the uncle of Rouran Khan Tuhe Zhen! ”

Xue An thought for a while, "It seems that Tuhe Zhen still attaches great importance to Qiliegui and gave him 20,000 people, and the task of Qiliegui should be very important, otherwise Tuhezhen would not have allocated another 10,000 soldiers and horses to him!" Do these 20,000 soldiers and horses have water? Are there any old and sick people? ”

Xu Li shook his head: "No, yesterday during the day, I also climbed out of the grass hole to investigate when the guard post of the Rouran people deserted, and I can confirm that these 20,000 Rouran troops are all strong adult men!" ”

"Have you found out the specific combat strategy of the Rouran people?"

Xu Li couldn't help but smile bitterly: "The general is too much of a villain, the villain is just a scout, I'm afraid that there are not many people who know about such confidential things even within the Rouran people, how can the villain He De be able to find out such an important secret?" ”

Xue Andu thought about it, "Okay, you still have a very important task, this general will send some elite cavalry to you, and you will take them to quietly touch the Rouran army camp, once our side speeds up and approaches the Rouran army camp, the hidden Rouran guard post will be alarmed, they will definitely ride back and report to the camp, your task is to chase and kill them, chase and kill them as quickly as possible, and try not to let them escape back to the camp to report!" ”

Xu Li hugged his fists and agreed: "The villain understands!" ”

Xue Andu immediately instructed Su Ji: "You go and send an elite cavalry of a hundred-man team to go over with Xu Bingtou!" ”

"No!"

After the arrangement was completed, Xue Andu ordered the whole army to continue to advance, this time the march speed was not fast, mainly walking, from twenty miles to ten miles, it took most of the hour.

"General, this place should only be more than ten miles away from the Rouran Army camp!"

Xue Andu immediately ordered the whole army to advance at full speed, and the army immediately increased its speed, and all the war horses began to run, and the speed gradually increased.

The sound of a large number of horses' hooves soon alarmed the hidden dark posts of the Rouran Army, and one by one the secret posts of the Rouran Army galloped in the direction of the camp, Xu Li and his subordinate scouts and the elite cavalry sent by Xue An quickly discovered the sound of these dark whistles and immediately began to chase and kill.

The light at night is not very good, but there is moonlight, as long as it is not too far away, you can still see the soft dark whistle running on horseback not far away.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh"

The cavalry of the cadre army chasing behind kept shooting arrows, and some of the Rouran secret sentinels who were running in front were shot and fell off their horses, and some were lying on their horses to avoid arrows.

Although enough men were sent to chase and kill, there were still Rouran secret sentries who fled back to the camp under the cover of night, and in a panic reported the news of the attack of the cadres to the beggar return.

The sleeping beggar was very annoyed when he was woken up, but when he heard that a large number of cadres and cavalry were coming, the anger disappeared in an instant, and he immediately ordered the gong to be beaten to gather all the horses.

It is not easy to assemble 20,000 horses in a hurry, and the beggar could have ordered to blow the trumpet to gather the soldiers and horses, but this speed was too slow, and the soldiers did not know that the enemy army was coming, and the speed of the assembly would be very fast, so he ordered to beat the gong to warn, and the soldiers knew that the enemy was attacking when they heard the sound of the gong, so they ran out of the camp tent in a panic, and some people were still looking for clothes, leather armor and weapons, bows and crossbows and arrows in the camp tent, and some people were looking for saddles, and the whole camp was in chaos.

This is a manifestation of the lack of regular military training, and a truly well-trained army, no matter what happens, will form a conditioned reflex to assemble as quickly as possible whenever it hears the sound of assembly, and everything is in order and in order, and there will never be such a chaotic mess when it hears the sound of the enemy's attack on the gong.

The Rouran people have studied with the Northern Wei Dynasty in military affairs for many years, and they can be regarded as learning a lot of things, but the military training of the Northern Wei Dynasty is not very formal.

Most of the panicked Rouran army has not yet assembled, Xue Andu and Su Ji have already killed with 20,000 cadres and cavalry, they have completed the change of horses in the process of galloping, after changing horses, the sprint of the war horse is obviously more powerful and faster!

"Kill-" The overwhelming shouts of killing came to the face, and the ill-prepared Rouran army was even more panicked.

"Rush up with me, kill—" The beggar knew that he couldn't wait any longer, even if most of the centaurs had not yet completed the assembly, he had to fight hard, otherwise he would only lose even worse.

"Whoosh ······" Countless arrows fell from the sky, and a large number of Rouran cavalry were planted with arrows.

A series of arrows were fired, and the Rouran cavalry kept falling like wheat harvesting, and the cavalry of the dry army had already changed their weapons and rushed over.

During the rush, one by one the horses fell down in the neighing, and the knights on horseback were overturned to the ground, some never got up again, some got up and picked up their weapons to continue fighting, and some were knocked off by the horses and vomited blood.

The spear of "poof, poof" penetrated the human body, and one by one the Rouran cavalry was strung on the spear by the cavalry of the cadre army who was rushed over and flew off the horse's back.

After they could not bear the weight of the human body, the cavalry of the cadre army decisively discarded their spears, pulled out the war knives at their waists and continued to swing their knives and slash, and a puff of blood flew on their faces and bodies.

The Rouran cavalry who met the battle fought under the command of the Qianjun cavalry, but the Rouran cavalry who had not yet had time to assemble and even mounted their horses had been scattered by the rushing Qianjun cavalry in an instant, and the Rouran people who had not had time to escape were either stabbed to death by the Qianjun with spears or hacked to death by their swords, and some were even knocked out by the horses and fell to the ground and trampled to pieces by the horses' hooves.

On such a battlefield, there is no cruelty, no mercy, not even emotion, only life and death, knives and blood.

The scattered Rouran people were relentlessly chased and killed, some were shot to death, some were stabbed to death with spears, some were cut off their backs, some were besieged and killed, but those who escaped failed to escape in the end, but there were still countless people on the run, because they subconsciously thought that if they escaped, they would have hope of living, and if they did not escape, they would be dead.

The beggar warhorse was cut off in the battle and his front hooves fell, and he also rolled to the ground with the fallen warhorse, and was almost nailed to the ground by several spears, if it weren't for his cleverness, he would have been a corpse with residual warmth at this moment.

But he was not long away from a corpse now, his helmet had been cut off, his iron armor was also uneven and scarred, he had two arrows stuck in his back, and one leg was badly wounded and lame.

He was wearing a blood-dripping scimitar and the rest of the Rouran warriors were still holding on, but they were already surrounded, more than 3,000 people, all of whom had lost their horses, and they were driven and concentrated here by the cavalry, and all the others were killed.

It was already white, and it was not long before dawn, and the tents in the camp were still burning, with a strong smell of burnt leather, smoke billowing and blazing into the sky.

The remnants of the Rouran people were like trapped beasts, their eyes sharp, panicked, and frightened constantly glanced, and some people kept roaring, trying to warn the opposing cavalry not to approach.

On the small hillside on the periphery of the encirclement, Xue Andu and Su Ji rode horses to watch the situation in the encirclement, and a thousand-commander rode a horse to report that the Rouran people who had escaped had all been annihilated.

Su Ji asked Xue Andu: "General, now that the situation has been decided, do you want these surrounded Rouran people to surrender or ······?"

Xue Andu asked: "Su Ji, when we lead the troops, what is the order that Your Majesty gave us?" ”

"Deal with the Rouran army here and a hundred miles to the northwest!"

"Yes, after the enemy army here, we have to rush to the north sixty miles away as fast as possible to deal with another group of Rouran, do you think we have the time and energy to take care of the prisoners?"

Su Ji hesitated: "That······ The Great General means ······"

"Kill them all!"

Su Ji was shocked, this was the first time he had heard such a ruthless military order, but the military order had been issued, and he had to carry it out as a soldier.

"Yes!" Su Ji clenched his fists and agreed, beat his horse and galloped down the hillside.

With the order to destroy all the encirclement, the cavalry of the cadres on the periphery of the encirclement all took out their bows and arrows to shoot arrows at the Rouran people in the encirclement, and wave after wave of arrows kept shooting into the encirclement, and the arrows of the Rouran people fell down one by one.

The screams and curses were like the roars of demons from hell, and they were terrifying.

The bow and crossbow stopped firing arrows, and there was not a single Rouran person still standing in the encirclement, and perhaps there were still people who were not dead, and some of the dying Rouran people and war horses were still wailing in pain.

At this point, the sky is bright, and the sun jumps out of the horizon.

Xue Andu turned his head to look at the red sun in the sky, took a deep breath, and issued an order: "Order, give those Rouran people who are not yet dead a ride!" ”
