Text Chapter 125 A Thousand Horses Fly Over and Ten Thousand Arrows Are Hard to Strike

The West Valley, which is about forty or fifty miles away from Youbeiping, is a sun-rising slope, where the terrain is complex and the ravines are staggered, which is an excellent place to ambush and hide soldiers.

The spring sun is very warm, and the body is warmly sunburned, which is very comfortable. Although it has been several days since the armor has been removed, the spirits of the soldiers are very high, and there is no slackness.

From here, you can see the plain of the avenue from the north. The soldiers who were hiding from a high place and watching out were highly concentrated, lest they miss any fighter planes in the blink of an eye.

On the most favorable area of this hillside, there are 20,000 archers who are quietly waiting for the ambush, all of whom are selected good marksmen in the army, with strong bows in hand, and each person is full of two pots of feather arrows, and their task is to launch the first round of strikes against the Hun cavalry, and when the time comes, ten thousand arrows will rain down, and it is believed that the Huns will suffer heavy casualties in a moment.

On the other side, more than 20,000 cavalry troops gathered from the whole army are all the cavalry warriors of the Han Empire. There is no way to do this, the lack of war horses is not something that can be solved in a short time, this is already the most cavalry force used since the founding of the Han Dynasty.

At this time, everyone was silently waiting, waiting for the arrival of the big war. Because, according to the itinerary, just today, the team of the Huns is about to arrive!

I have been secretly lurking here for nearly ten days, and the final moment has finally arrived, seeing that the prey is about to enter the net, and the great work is about to be completed, how can it not be exciting!

"Presumably, Cheng Buzhi on the flank of Dongling is already ready for the war......."

Behind the huge stone rock, Li Guang sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and recuperated, secretly thinking in his heart.

After fighting with the steppe Xiongnu for so many years, it has always been a passive defense, and the shadow of Baishan being trapped has been hanging over the Han Dynasty, becoming an unspeakable death for the descendants of Emperor Gaozu.

Na currency endowment, princess and pro, open border market to supply grassland commodities at low prices, burning, killing and looting every other ......! All kinds of humiliation, blood and tears.

As a general of the Empire, what is the use of having a prestige? The arrow is lonely, the gray hair is growing, the captives are uneven, how can he be brave!

Fortunately, he caught up with this last opportunity, and the young Son of Heaven finally made a difference and officially declared war on the Huns.

Qin Shi Mingyue, Han Shi Xiongguan, a century-old enemy, another large-scale confrontation is just around the corner. I hope this time, it will be the last time Huma's iron hooves will step on Yin Mountain!

Another gust of wind from the valley swept by, stirring the gray hairline that was falling, and the veteran suddenly opened his eyes, and the "Qingge" sword on his knees was already in his hand.

Although Li Guang is over fifty years old, he is deaf and clear-sighted, and he is not inferior to a young man, so he got up and jumped on horseback, and when he looked far away, he saw that in the far north of the country, there were yellow clouds formed by a long flow of sand and dust, which filled the air and spread!

As a general, looking at the clouds and observing the atmosphere is the first preparation of the "Six Taos". Although there was no trace of anything on the flat ground, and no movement was heard, Li Guang could tell at a glance that a large group of cavalry was coming from the north!

"General Qiyu, it's the Hun cavalry, the Huns have arrived!"

Without waiting for his order, a soldier who had been watching from a high place rushed to report the military situation loudly.

"Good! Immediately send an order to all armies, enter a state of imminent battle, listen to the orders of the Chinese army, and prepare to kill the enemy! ”

As soon as Li Guang gave the order, the Han army, which had been waiting for many days, immediately cheered up. The knife is out of the sheath, the bow on the string, the gun halberd is like a forest, the reins are lifted, everyone is ready to fight, the air is solidified, and the touch is ready to go!

The soldiers and horses came quickly, and it was only a moment's work, and the shape of the team was already faintly visible. Looking at the direction, it was the ambush area of the unknown people and horses on the side of Bendongling.

"Something is wrong! Why are there so few people?"

Li Guang was suspicious in his heart, and faintly felt that something was wrong. As the other party got closer and closer, it was condescending to see that although the horses were galloping and the smoke and dust were majestic, in fact, the number of people in the team was not large, and it was just a team of 10,000 people.

"Report to the general, the scouts are coming, and the enemy who is coming to attack will stop here, and there will be no rest of the Hun brigade behind. Please, the general decides! ”

As the cavalry gradually stepped into the ambush of friendly troops, the scouts hidden along the way had already sent back information one after another, confirming the news.

"General, why hasn't General Cheng launched it yet! What are we going to do? To fight or not to fight? The generals gathered around and asked for instructions.

"Go and find out where this cavalry is going? What is the intention? ”

Li Guang looked at the anxious faces of his subordinates, and while ordering the probe to explore the details, he was quickly weighing in his heart, and the military plane was like fire, fleeting! To fight or not to fight?

It's really not as fast as planning is changing! A table of dishes prepared for the Xiongnu Shan Yu came first.

The Huns are too cunning, this is obviously only their vanguard, is this sent to listen to the truth?

Li Guangsu knew that Cheng did not know how to use troops prudently, and in such a situation, he would definitely not act rashly, he must have thought twice and thought about the overall situation, so he allowed the enemy cavalry to pass under his nose, and so far there has been no movement at all.

He had a little discussion with several lieutenant generals, and decided that his own troops should not be greedy for merit, and went to fight the grass and startle the snakes, or focus on the overall situation, and let them go first, expecting that when the time came, he would defeat the follow-up Shan Yu majority, and this Hun cavalry that went deep into the Han border could not escape.

Seeing the smoke and dust billowing under the hillside of the ambush of the eastern and western armies, and the eight thousand flying horses surging by, Li Guang touched the big yellow bow in his hand and sighed regretfully. Just as he was about to order many scouts to follow and keep a firm eye on the whereabouts of this cavalry, he saw a horse galloping towards him, and the knight didn't have time to wait for the horse to stop, so he directly turned over and landed on the ground, staggered a few steps, and fell in front of Li Guang and his generals.

"General, the big thing is not good, the situation has changed!"

This person was a military commander of the Han army scout, obviously rushing back in a hurry, and when he only said this sentence, he was already tired and fell to the ground, coughing incessantly, unable to speak.

Li Guang's heart sank, but he was not busy asking. Hurriedly asked someone to hand him a water bladder, signaling him not to panic. Everyone knows that he loves soldiers like sons, but they are all accustomed to it and do not think it is different.

The Wu Commander's eyes were grateful, and he raised his head and poured a few sips of water, and breathed a sigh of relief.

According to the news from the Tanma Express along the way, Shan Yu Dajun suddenly changed his mind for some reason. At this time, it stopped at the place ten miles north of Wuzhou Sai, and the Sixth Army did not send it, but only sent the Zuoxian Wang Department, and brought the Han envoy who sent his relatives, saying that he went straight to Youbeiping. Checkmate...... Please, the general decides! ”

What the! The target of this cavalry was not Ma Yi but Youbeiping? The generals couldn't help but be surprised.

"Have you ever elaborated on the purpose of this trip?"

Li Guang's expression remained unchanged and continued to ask. As a general, after a hundred battles, Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and did not move, and the sword was not enough.

The specific plan was very secret, and the brothers did not find out, but only said that they had sent this welcoming team to the princess's residence and made arrangements in advance. The rest, unknown. ”

Li Guang nodded and asked him to go down and have a good rest. The captain finished his salute and went away.

"General, do you want to immediately send troops back to Youbeiping?"

Deputy General Zhang Jin bowed his hand to ask for instructions, and his tone was anxious. The rest of the people also had worried expressions.

Li Guang's face was also a little solemn, he didn't believe that the Xiongnu Shan Yu would send this mere 8,000 cavalry to attack Jiancheng, that was to send him to death!

What's more, since he sent troops, he strictly ordered the city guards to carry out military control over the whole city, the city gate was opened regularly, and the entry and exit were strictly checked, just for fear that during this period, there would be any accidents because of the emptiness of the troops in the city.

It's just that after hearing the news, there are also worries. Huyan, the Xiongnu Zuoxian King, is known as a brave and invincible enemy, and although Li Guang has never fought against him, he also knows a lot about his reputation and achievements.

With such a character, leading a group of tigers and wolves, the soldiers are under the empty city, and unexpected dangers will inevitably occur!

As the Huns began to invade the south again, Youbeiping's position has become more and more important in recent years, and it has become the base camp of the entire northern Xinjiang front. Grain and grass warehouses, equipment piled up, Yunzhong, Yanmen, Shanggu, Daijun and other front-line supplies are all transferred from here, once there is something wrong in Youbeiping, the consequences are unimaginable......!

Now, most of the elites in the city have come to the west valley to ambush, and there are still about 1,000 people in the garrison defending the city, and the strength is too weak.

What's more, the princess's car is stationed in the ...... of the General's Mansion in Bicheng.

The old man walked back and forth a few steps, and he was a little decisive. Five or six generals also had different opinions, and some advocated immediately organizing an elite group to come back in case of contingencies. Some of them insisted on holding the troops still, so as not to startle the snake and ruin the plan.

"Don't argue anymore, my opinion is not to move yet, this action is the most important decision made since the son of today ascended the throne, and the goal is to be pure and evil! The five-way army acts together, we should focus on the overall situation, and we cannot afford to lose! ”

Li Guang finally made up his mind. Seeing that the Lord had made up his mind, the rest of the people gave up their promises.

Obviously, in the current situation, this is also the most sensible choice.

You must know that in order to be seamless and flawless, so as not to be discovered by the Huns' meticulous work, more than 300,000 troops and horses of the Fifth Route Army began to set up ambushes in their chosen areas half a month ago, and everything was carried out in secret.

Now, after so many days of hard waiting, it seems that the last point will be successful. If at this time, the ambushed army is mobilized and the original deployment is disrupted, not to mention, once the secret secret is leaked, and the secret sentinel of the Huns learns that the fish in the mouth escapes, it is really a complete loss, and the success is lost.

When the time comes, there is no need for the Son of Heaven to blame and the court to punish him, and the leader of the army may be shameless to face the world, and only Fu Jian will apologize for his crimes!

"I hope that the defenders of the city will act in strict accordance with the orders given to them before leaving, hold the city, and let the king of Zuoxian toss under the city. Wait until you get a big victory here, take advantage of the power of victory, and then go back and clean them up! ”

This sudden accident still cast a shadow on Li Guang's heart after all, looking at the direction of Guancheng at the overlap of distant mountains, the white-haired veteran was worried.

The partial general left behind in Youbeiping is named Guan Xi, as his name suggests, in his twenties, with a baby face, and he speaks with a smile, which is really very likable.

Regarding the fact that he could not go out with the army but stayed in the city, Guan Xi had a small grudge in his heart. Don't look at him usually laughing like a child, but he has a ruthless spirit when he charges on a horse in armor, otherwise he wouldn't have become a partial general at such a young age.

The afternoon was a little leisurely, and he was in the general's mansion at this time, and his face was full of excitement to ask the little marquis who came with the princess's car about the scenery of Chang'an. Guan Xi is a native of the border city, he has never been to the interior of the Central Plains, and he is used to seeing the wind and sand and war. If one day you make great achievements and get promoted, you have to go to the capital to see and see!

He took another sip of the good wine given to him by Yuan Zhao, and was about to ask about the majesty of the main hall of Weiyang Palace again, when suddenly the captain of the city guard rushed in with a roar.

"General Guan Xi, it's not good, let's go to the city and have a look! Outside the city, nearly 10,000 Hun cavalry rushed straight to us, and it was only twenty miles away! ”

What the! The wine jug in his hand fell to the ground suddenly, Guan Xi was shocked and stood up. But he didn't notice that a strange light flashed in the eyes of the young man opposite.......
