"History of the Han Empire: The Family of the Yuan Dynasty" Volume 5: "...... In June, the Han army left Dunhuang. At that time, the Persian king Tun Wuwei had an army of 200,000 and a Han army of 130,000. On the day of Shenri, the king drove his troops forward and entered the Han camp with a victorious attitude. In the event of an ambush, the fire broke out, and it was difficult to take care of each other. Under the thunderbolt, there were many casualties...... Several battles were unfavorable, and they were defeated. Within a hundred miles, blood flowed and pestles, mountains collapsed, and the yellow sand was red. Yuan Gong surrounded him with soldiers on all sides, and there was no forgiveness for killing! After three days of fighting, they chased to Jiuquan, slaughtered them all, and captured the king to return to ....... ”

Although the words recorded in the history books have been as brief as possible, when the descendants of China read this, they all started to shoot the case and shouted happily. In the eyes of countless people, the reason why Yuan Zhao is respected as a Chinese national hero who is rarely matched in history throughout the ages, and his magnificent image is also gradually established in this hearty victory with foreign invaders.

There are many definitions of a hero. But in the minds of all Chinese people, outstanding people who have made outstanding contributions to resist foreign invasions or open up territories are truly pure heroes! Yuan Zhao is undoubtedly the most outstanding representative of this, there is no one!

The victory in the Battle of Wuwei completely established the smooth progress of the Han army's westward expedition, and also fulfilled Yuan Zhao's supreme prestige among the people of the Han Empire. Whether it is in the military, among the people, or in all kinds of industries, from now on, all policies and orders in the hands of this person will be supported and obeyed.

However, before the start of the Battle of Wuwei, although most people believed that the Han army would not lose out of trust in Yuan Zhao's previous victories. But he did not expect such a major victory.

After all, the Persian base camp was 200,000 horses, and it was not cats or dogs, but brutal warriors. Even with an advantage, many people are ready to make great sacrifices.

Throughout the ages, even in the famous victorious battles commanded by those famous generals, while achieving brilliant results, their own losses are inevitable after all. If it is said that killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 self is such a thing, it can be regarded as an equal match. Then, if you pay half of the casualties and annihilate all the enemies, you can already count it as a victory.

And it was with this mentality that the king of Persia drove the army of tigers and wolves to come. In his opinion, if the price of 100,000 people can be completely flattened by the Han army camp, it is also worth it.

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the wind and dust are not enough, so it is a good time to fight at night. The hungry tiger wolf came out in the twilight, and with a hideous roar swept like a black tide. The tremendous impact stirred up endless smoke and dust, and in an instant, it obscured half of the gray sky.

In recent years, the king of Persia has rarely personally taken up the charge. It's not that he's become benevolent and lazy, it's an invincible loneliness. No matter how brave the general is, he can't escape the fate of bowing down in front of him.

The boy who once held a spear to kill wolves, insects, tigers and leopards in the wilderness, since he put on the crown and equipped it with a golden sword, his body has gathered the power of the earth. In the mouths of the sorcerers and elders, this king was chosen by the gods to unify the entire Western world. His will is the will of heaven, and no mortal can oppose him.

It's been more than thirty years since then. With the spear in his left hand and the sword in his right hand, the king of Persia gradually expanded his influence to the corners of the entire western continent. Those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it die! The arrogant heart also swelled more and more, until he crossed his greedy gaze over the mountains and rivers and oceans, and firmly fixed his eyes on the rich and prosperous East.

The wizards and elders who used mythology to build momentum for him in the first place can no longer be restrained. They were all thrown into the furnace by the king of Persia and burned alive...... It was then that his words were the will of Heaven that could not be disobeyed. In the direction of the finger, thousands of slaves and samurai scrambled to repay their deaths. Any opponent in the face of such a force will become a powder!

And tonight, the king of Persia finally rode his war horse again, with a spear in his left hand, a sword in his right hand, and a golden helmet under his burning eyes, and the desire to kill was extremely strong. This is because he finally met the most worthy opponent in his life. When 200,000 tigers and wolves tore the Han army to pieces, he wanted to personally cut off the head of the young commander opposite with the sword of the king.

Within a radius of several hundred miles north of the majestic mountains, in the past few months, except for the two opposing armies, there has long been no one to live. Not to mention the locals, even birds and animals are rare. Perhaps, the only thing that is not lacking is a large flock of crows that cannot be surrounded everywhere. These messengers of death have gathered in this land destined to shed blood, waiting to enjoy their feast over and over again.

If you look down from a high place, the scene of 200,000 troops overwhelming, even under the moonlight, is a very terrifying scene. Most of these armies were Persian cavalry, interspersed with tens of thousands of slaves and warriors conquered by other countries of the Western Continent. They activated all the weapons and equipment in the Persian base camp, and in a sense, there was no way back for everyone.

If the Han army is wiped out and the large battalion on the opposite side is leveled, there will be nothing to do. And if the battle is not conducive to advancing and cannot be advanced, then there is no doubt that this sharp edge will not last for a day or two, and the consequences that await them will be a tragic defeat or death. Cause and effect, it's that simple.

More than a dozen of the bravest generals led their armies to the front. They know better than anyone that it has come to a critical moment of life and death. The destruction of the king of Persia is actually a battle of trapped beasts. Whether it was for loyalty or for the honor of the samurai, they had to fight to the death.

The distance of dozens of miles is just a blink of an eye. Under the moonlight, the forward troops could already faintly see the outline of the Han army's camp. It stretches for miles and is spectacular.

Earlier, the Persians had come to spy on the area countless times. Although he did not dare to approach from a distance for fear of startling the grass and snakes, the situation inside and outside the camp could still be seen clearly. The Han troops stationed here were not prepared for a surprise attack by the Persian army tonight, and they were operating as usual without any tension and defense.

When they saw the situation on the outside of the camp as they rode their horses, the generals were reassured. The scale of the Han army camp is very regular, and the sound of internal drumming is intermittent, indicating that this is an important place for the military camp. Some of the vigilant soldiers stood there, but they all seemed to be asleep, spears in their hands, and they didn't even notice the sound of the horses' hooves approaching.

This is the best raid opportunity. Get a head start, when the battle is decided! Hundreds of zhang away, the generals issued a battle order, and the horses of countless Persian cavalry suddenly increased their speed, and in an instant, the sound was like bursting beans, and the boundless murderous aura broke through the camp with the momentum of Mount Tai.

The arrows are like flying locusts, the swords are shining, and the spears lift people high. Thousands of Han soldiers who loyally guarded the perimeter of the camp fell down at the first time. They didn't even have time to snort, and died silently.

With tens of thousands of cavalry pouring in at the same time, most of them did not notice anything unusual. They shouted and brandished scimitars and spears and slaughtered directly into the depths of the camp. And only those samurai who had just killed with their own hands could notice that something was wrong. Obviously, the scimitar cut the enemy in two, or the spear pierced the opponent's chest and flew directly, but according to years of experience in killing, the blade does not look like a human body, but it seems to be defeated! And the ...... that flows out With a pungent smell, it doesn't look like blood, huh?

It's just that it's too late for more people to know about such suspicions. These samurai didn't even have a chance to stop and take a closer look, and they were swept forward by the boundless tide that came in behind. A similar situation occurred in several directions of the battalion. The Persians attacked from all sides, and almost in an instant, the Han army camp fell. Such a force is unstoppable, even if the ironclad troops are in the way, they will be squeezed into meat sauce.

The king of Persia was in the middle of the army, surrounded by thousands of horsemen, and he immediately learned that the front army had raided into the Han army's camp. This did not come as a surprise to him, everything was under control. In that case, let's go and kill! In this battle, before killing all the Han troops, the sword will never be sealed!

"Pass the king's order! The whole army advanced, and the Han army encountered did not leave a mouth, and there was no mercy for killing...... Stepping through the camp, taking advantage of the situation to take Dunhuang overnight and break the jade gate! ”

A series of orders, following the direction pointed by the golden sword, flew away. His army is a sharp sword that can penetrate thousands of miles, and once it shines, everything in the world is vulnerable.

However, the dozen or so flying horsemen who conveyed the king's order had not gone far before the mutation occurred under circumstances that no one expected.

A warrior who came from the opposite direction rushed to the front of the Chinese army in a panic and urgently reported to the king of Persia that the forward cavalry that had attacked the Han army's camp had not found a single living enemy at all. It was a large empty camp, within a radius of dozens of miles, hanging sheep beating drums, flags were densely packed, and everything was an illusion...... Even the Han soldiers who were in charge of guarding inside and outside the camp were made of straw and put on armor.

"There is fraud! Command to retreat ......! ”

The king of Persia was astonished. At this moment, he suddenly remembered the wisdom of the ancient art of war in the East that he had heard from the elders in the royal court, and immediately realized that the Han army camp might have been ambushed in advance.

It's just that this order of his has become nonsense and will never reach the ears of his samurai. Everything happened in a hurry, and in front of the Han army camp, a fire broke out, and thunderbolts erupted, like the wrath of heaven, which fell on all the Persians.

Nearly 50,000 or 60,000 elite cavalrymen who broke into the Han army's camp were immediately overwhelmed by the fire and explosions everywhere. Even the fastest one who rushes to the front wants to get out of the camp, but he can't get it.

Because when countless war horses fell one after another, they were desperate to find that the front covered with barbed wire and thistles was already a dead place. If you want to turn back, the fire is sweeping the world and ......!
