Text Chapter 541 The horse stepped on the Huns at the cost of his life

If you want to talk about the most worthy of boasting about the Huns, that is, when Mao Dunshan was a grassland warrior and fought with Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty.

It was the largest war ever fought between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu. The contest between the King of the Steppe and the Emperor of the Central Plains ended with the defeat of 400,000 Han troops, and Emperor Gaozu was trapped in Baishan and forced to submit.

The dignified Emperor of the Han Dynasty was besieged by the Hun cavalry in Baishan Mountain for seven days and seven nights, and finally relied on the power of the rich and beautiful women to barely escape back to Chang'an. The humiliation and remorse in this are probably that no matter how broad-minded this founding son is, he will never forget it until he dies!

And Baishan Mountain is also famous in the history books because of this event. In the songs circulating on the grassland, this has become the most direct and powerful evidence that their Xiongnu people have been favored by the Immortal Heaven. It was from this great victory that the expansion of the Huns became out of control, coming and going, invincible.

The vicissitudes of the world, a hundred years of smoke and clouds are just a flick of a finger. When many blood feuds between ethnic groups gradually faded over time, there were still many people who were haunted by the national shame of the past and could not give up.

There are a lot of hot-blooded men of the Han family, blood spilled on the border, the soul is broken, and when they protect the safety of the Central Plains with their loyalty to the country, they are always thinking that one day they can step on the Huns and level the grassland!

The Han will eventually win in the contest with the Huns! Such a belief exists in the hearts of many people with lofty ideals. Although the process will be long, it may wait for decades or even hundreds of years. But civilization will surely defeat the barbarians, and blood will also be exchanged for peace in the Central Plains, which everyone is convinced of.

But from the Han emperors in the Yang Palace, the important ministers in the court, to the ordinary people in the world...... But they were wrong about one thing, that is, the fall of the Huns would not take that long at all. Because of the sudden appearance of a person, subduing the evil dragon of the Huns, only ten years of preparation is enough!

It is less than 100 miles away from the northwest direction of Baishan Mountain, and in the remaining veins of the rolling mountain range, there is a place with steep terrain, which is called the Tiger Killing Ridge in the mouth of the herdsmen on the grassland. The origin of the name is no longer known, but as the name suggests, it should be a place to boast that the Hun warriors once hunted tigers here.

Not many people knew about such an ordinary place. However, in the later history books of the Han Dynasty, the events that happened here were recorded in rich and vivid colors, and it became a major event that inspired countless Han family boys to boil their blood. Since then, this place has been given a new name, Kill Huling!

This glorious battle, which has been passed down through the ages, took place at dawn. The two sides of the battle, on the one hand, are the Xiongnu Shan Yu Yizhi Evil Headquarters who broke through from Longcheng all the way north to here, and on the other hand, it is the Red Fire Army of the Han Dynasty who has been waiting here for a long time!

After the Hun cavalry encountered the sniper of the Han army directly north of Longcheng, they forcibly broke through, but immediately turned to the northwest direction. This is also a passage that they used to take when they invaded the south. Although nearly 10,000 horses were lost, the remaining 20,000 people were still in a huge formation, and the smoke and dust raised within a hundred miles obscured the dawn of dawn, and the momentum was very strong.

After running for a little in the middle of the night, Da Shan Yu Yi felt a little tired. This comes not only from the body, but also from the frustration and resentment in the heart. The blocking from the Han army was one thing, and the other fact that made him angry was that since the night out of Dragon City, the "Spitfire" warriors who had been protecting him had all disappeared and disappeared without a trace.

This discovery shocked and angered him. After confirmation, there was indeed no trace of them in the entire army, as if they had been summoned by some kind of mystery, and these guardians of the royal court disappeared into the boundless night.

Although there was no publicity, so as not to shake the morale of the army. But a strong sense of foreboding has firmly occupied Shan Yuyi's childish heart. If even "Flying Fire" abandons him, then even if he can return to Mobei safely, in the case of this defeat and great loss of strength, whether he can continue to stay in Da Danyu's position safely has become an unpredictable future.

After quietly discussing with several of the most confidant noble ministers and princes, they passed down a military order, ordering everyone to stop without resting along the way, and strive to rush back to the Mobei royal court as soon as possible.

Although after a night of fierce fighting and hurrying, the men and horses were a little tired, but fortunately, they Huns have lived on horseback since they were children and have developed a good skill. Even if you take a nap and rest in the middle of a gallop, you won't fall off the horse. Therefore, if you are barely in a hurry, you can still hold on.

The horses' hooves did not stop, and the army moved quickly. As the night faded, the sky gradually brightened, and the mountains ahead could already be seen. This piece of flat land will be there immediately, as long as you pass the Tiger Killing Ridge, the sky is vast and wild, you will be a horse and a flat river, and drive directly to the bottom of the Yin Mountain.

The Xiongnu generals who led the elite cavalry as the vanguard were two people, called Huerdun and Huergai, they were people of the same tribe, and they were both famous generals in the Xiongnu army.

In fact, in their hearts, they were very indignant about this hurried escape. Because in terms of personal courage alone, the two Xiongnu generals thought that they could single-handedly take on any Han general. Even Li Guang back then, they were not afraid, and once made a bold statement about capturing flying generals. As for these later so-called famous generals, such as Wei Qing, Su Jian, Gongsun Rongnu and Huo Quai, they are not in their eyes.

It's just a pity that the combat methods of the Han army make it impossible for a fierce general like them to show their martial arts, let alone find someone to fight alone.

On the way back to the north, my heart was sad. In the middle of the line, where the smoke and dust dispersed, I suddenly heard the screams of the cavalry under his command pointing in front of him.

"Look, General! The front mountain ridge is ...... down. ”

The two Huer generals raised their heads suddenly, and saw a big flag flashing out not far in front of them, waving in the wind, under the flag corner, the helmets were bright, the sword light was flashing, and the cavalry team wearing red robes lined up neatly, waiting for a long time!

"It's the Red Fire Army! I really didn't expect it...... They were so swift that they had anticipated our course of action. Come on, go and report the big order as soon as possible. The rest of us will rush with us, and we will fight them today! ”

The two Hun generals glanced at each other, gave an order, raised the blade in their hands on the other, and ordered the whole army to charge! The sledgehammer is powerful and heavy, and the long-handled iron knife is also extremely sharp. Today is the right time to go on a killing spree to vent the anger in your chest.

At the foot of the Tiger Ridge, the Red Fire Army, which arrived two hours earlier than the Huns, had already finished resting, and all the soldiers of the army were here. After several battles, the edge of this cavalry has been fully honed. At the time of battle, he had not yet charged, and the momentum exuded as a whole was enough to make any opponent fearful.

Since the killing of the Xiongnu envoys in the Han army camp, Yuan Zhao immediately launched a deployment and sent various armies to act separately. After receiving Yuan Zhao's general order, the hussar general Huo Qubing did not hesitate at all, and immediately led the Red Fire Army to rush here as quickly as possible.

Listening to Yuan Zhao's tone, it seemed that the Xiongnu Shan Yu Yi Zhiyi was very likely to choose to break through to the north tonight, and this mountainous area in the northwest direction was one of the places where it might pass through. Therefore, the main combat task assigned to the Red Fire Army is that once the Hun cavalry appears here, then it is necessary to escape without letting one person or one horse escape at any cost.

Although Yuan Zhao is not sure, since there is such a possibility, it is a great opportunity. All the soldiers of the Red Fire Army are gearing up, and they can't wait for the Huns to appear in front of them immediately. Because this battle is different from the past, think about it, it is the king of the steppe, Da Dan Yu Khan! What kind of merit and honor can be compared to the pleasure of capturing or killing the enemy chieftain?

Led by the hussar general Huo Quai, the generals of the Red Fire Army, Zhang Qian, Li Wang, Zhang Ji, and Li Kang, who joined later, all forcibly suppressed the excitement in their hearts during this waiting time, looking forward to the arrival of the big war as soon as possible.

Sure enough, Yuan Zhao's judgment was not wrong, and the Huns did not live up to their expectations. A quarter of an hour ago, when they received an urgent report from the spy Pegasus that more than 20,000 Hun cavalry were coming in this direction, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Then the blood surged, and between looking at each other, the fighting spirit was high.

The Huns came quickly, and after a while, countless galloping war horses began to appear in the field of vision. Huo Quzhi held the spear in his hand, and the command in his mouth was concise and clear.

"In today's battle, not a single Hun can be allowed to kill Huling here! Those who don't surrender, kill them all! ”

The whole army responded in unison, the war drums sounded, and in the face of the Hun cavalry that began to rush over, more than 10,000 red-robed soldiers did not hesitate, and directly followed their generals to hedge!

The sky was shining, and it was another morning with infinite morning glow. If you look down from the height of the mountain, you will see that on this amazing battlefield, the momentum of the two armies rushing and killing is like two sharp edges, colliding fiercely together.

The Huns on horseback have never been a group greedy for life and afraid of death. At such a moment of life and death, knowing that the other party was very powerful, after being stimulated to the ruthlessness in his heart, he still chose to fight hard instead of fleeing.

Neither side used their own bows and crossbows, and since you want a pure battle, let's have a real battle of swords and guns! Cavalry duels, winning or losing depends on strength.

The two generals of Huer, who first led the Huns to rush over, were really powerful. They are all men with excellent arms, and they dance on their horses with their blades in the wind, which is daunting. As they rode by, the nearest knights of the Red Fire Army, who were not their opponents, were knocked off their horses one after another, seriously injured or killed on the spot.

The Huns were in high spirits, let out a heaven-shattering shout, and the vanguard general who followed them swung his sword and slashed, and the Red Fire Army engaged in a short battle, and the two sides launched a fierce fighting .......
