Text Chapter 530 Loyal bones are buried in the depths of the grass
Whether it was Shan Yu Yi Zhiyi and the Hun Evil King fighting each other, or the Hun Evil King choosing to surrender to the Han Dynasty, it was a heavy blow to the entire Xiongnu royal court. This serious split not only weakened the overall combat effectiveness of the Hun cavalry, but also caused shock and panic in the hearts of all the Huns, which had never been done before.
Up to now, in the contest with the Han Dynasty army, the most powerful tribes and royal clans on the steppe have either been defeated and killed by their leaders, or their strength has been greatly reduced, and there has been a general war-weariness. Now, if such serious infighting occurs again, then except for the Khan's headquarters and a small number of royal court henchmen, I am afraid it will be difficult to unite the entire grassland as one.
Arrogance and arrogance can sometimes blind the eyes. Yu Yi's obstinate and evil insistence on going his own way has made some people dare not raise these serious problems in person even though they have already seen through them.
Even the national teacher Zhang Zhongxing is a little helpless. What he hopes for most now is that Da Danyu will change his mind as soon as possible, take advantage of the fact that the army under his command has not suffered too many losses, quickly return to the northern part of the grassland, change the strategy of the royal court, re-accumulate strength, and believe that it will not be long before the entire grassland will be united again. At that time, if you try to go south, the situation will inevitably be different from what it is now.
However, although he persuaded him several times, Shan Yu Khan's attitude was very resolute and he had no intention of retreating. After such a delay, it has finally dragged on to this day.
When the 50,000-strong army set off shortly after last night, Shan Yu Yi Zhiyi summoned all the important ministers and nobles to discuss the matter of concentrating all their forces on a decisive battle with the Han army after subduing the tribe of the Hun Evil King tomorrow.
Although everyone was a little tired for several months, no one dared to disobey Da Shan Yu's order. Especially when they knew what the evil king was about to face, they were all a little afraid in their hearts.
It was in this kind of self-endangered mood that everyone beat their spirits and listened to Shan Yuyi's childish ambition, and stayed up until the second half of the night.
In the vast expanse of the grassland, the howl of wolves and the sound of war horses crushing the night could be heard in the distance. The Xiongnu rangers who had heard the news sent back the latest information, saying that they had suddenly discovered that the Han army camp on the other side of Shuofang City had abnormal behavior.
Out of the innate sensitivity of the grassland people, Shan Yi Zhiyi and some people immediately became vigilant in their hearts. They seem to sense the danger behind this. It's just that the intelligence brought back by the rangers is uncertain. The night patrol team of the Black Eagle Army is very powerful, and many Hun horse rangers have died in their hands, and the idlers can't get close at all.
After immediately sending more rangers to investigate the details, Shan Yu ordered the generals with the troops to rush back to their own army immediately, ready for battle at any time, just in case.
However, it's a pity. His order was not well executed. Because, Dadan's methods of dealing with the Evil King today have surprised many people in their hearts, and they have a deep uneasiness and confusion about the future.
Especially in the hearts of some simple-minded Hun cavalry officers and soldiers who only knew how to fight, after knowing the original situation of the matter and the current situation, they were even more uninterested in the consideration of the war. After discussing with each other and returning to their respective armies, they did not immediately reorganize their armies for battle, but gathered their henchmen and discussed for half the night. The mutual attack with the Han army is not a day and a half, a small movement, does not mean that there will be a war immediately, it is not worth making a fuss!
Things in the world, between success and failure, have their own accidents, but more often than not, they are inevitable. And this kind of sluggish fighting mood among the Hun cavalry finally made them lose even the opportunity to fight hard. They won't have to wait long for them to regret it.
In the dark night, affected by many conditions, it was not suitable for large armies to fight. But that's for the average military. For the Black Hawks, who have undergone countless night combat trainings, there is no obstacle in this regard, or the impact is extremely limited.
The Han army camp of the three cities of Shuofang on the Hetao grassland is only two or three hundred miles away from Longcheng. The vast area in between was the battlefield where they fought several times. Every inch of land here was once soaked in the blood of warriors. In every patch of grass here, bones, broken swords, and broken swords can be found, .......
The moonlight is dim and the fog will rise. Some of the wolves, insects, tigers and leopards who came out in search of prey seemed to be frightened in some way, and fled in all directions, disappearing into the bushes and jungles in the distance.
Countless sturdy figures began to appear in this grassland within a radius of 100 miles in small teams, they moved quickly and had a clear goal, as long as all the active targets appeared in the field of vision in front of them, they would be killed!
This is the advance scout team in the Black Hawks. Each of these people has undergone special selection and training. Their task was to clear the route of the army from all enemy scouts and rangers before each large army was dispatched, so as to ensure the secrecy and suddenness of military operations.
Every crisp victory of the Black Eagle Army has the indelible merits of these people! And this time, it's even more extraordinary. At the critical moment tonight when the victory or defeat of the two armies was decided, all personnel were dispatched. Pioneer exploration, thunder!
In the face of such a capable force, almost all the Hun rangers from the direction of Longcheng were spared. There were many people who died before they could notice anything unusual when a crossbow arrow suddenly came from nowhere and pierced their throats. Under the cover of grassy sand dunes and shrubs, these figures were like black night hunters, driving straight forward without stopping, leaving behind only the corpses of the Huns.
Just after they passed, in just half an hour, the 30,000 Black Eagle Army of the Han army camp poured out and appeared in this area under the personal command of Hou Weiqing of Changping.
All the horses of the Black Eagle knights were wrapped in cotton cloth and corked to the horses, in order to try not to make a loud noise before they charged, so as not to be detected by the Huns in advance.
30,000 elites, this is already the entire strength of the Black Eagle Army in the Shuofang battalion. Although the soldiers wrapped in armor couldn't see their faces clearly, the high fighting spirit and fierce edge exuded in the process of advancing could be felt even by the beasts on the grassland.
In recent years, the famous generals of the Black Eagle Army, Cao Xiang, Su Jian, Gongsun Rongnu, Gongsun Ao, Zhang Cigong, Zhou Ba and others, who have gradually risen in the foreign wars of the Han Dynasty, are all in high spirits, each commanding their own subordinates, and rushing to the battlefield destined to be glorious in history!
Under the banner of the Chinese army, Hou Weiqing, who was just a slave rider, rode a horse, and he silently stroked the famous Spring and Autumn Sword in his hand to "wash ink", and no one knew what he was thinking.
After ten years of Rong, today I finally got what I wanted. What he remembered most in his heart was what the young man with a warm smile had calmly said to him.
“…… Brother Qing, your future is not in this glorious Weiyang Palace...... The sunset on the Great Wall, riding a horse and bending a bow, is the place you should go to! ”
The Black Hawks were not moving fast, and they were scheduled to attack at dawn. The distance in between, just right. Fifty miles ahead, in the dust and mist, is the direction of Dragon City!
Wei Qing ordered the army to temporarily rest for half an hour in order to prepare for the immediate charge. He looked sideways in the direction of the west, the wilderness was vast, and the morning star was shining in the sky.
How did the battle go in that direction? So far, he has not received anything in return because of the march of the army. I hope the Red Fire Army can arrive in time, then...... Perhaps the Black Hawk warriors who have taken on the heavy duty will be able to survive the ...... of many more.
This happened a few hours ago.
A hundred miles west of Dragon City, Ye Heng, the general of the Black Eagle Army's Pioneer Battalion, put the long knife in his mouth, took the war horse, and then tore off a corner of his battle robe, endured severe pain, and wound a wound in the lower abdomen of his left rib.
After several charges, several battles, and nearly half an hour of fighting, the cavalry of the Black Eagle Army of more than 2,000 Black Eagle Army simply dragged the footsteps of the 50,000 Hun army, so that they could not pursue the Hun Evil King tribe south along the way.
Looking back, there were less than four or five hundred horsemen left, and most of them were injured. During the last hedge, Ye Heng was broken through his armor by a heavy axe of the Huns, and his abdomen was severely injured, and even his intestines came out with a few knots. However, General Han, who was so badly wounded, still did not flinch.
After briefly wrapping the bleeding wound with his battle robe, he re-grasped the Han knife, which had been wounded. How many Hun cavalry have been killed? I can't remember anymore. The Huns, whose eyes were red with blood, swarmed again, maybe the last moment had come, right? But I don't know if I and my heroic subordinates have persevered for so long, can help the overall situation!
Now, I can't think about it so much. At the beginning of Ye Heng's long knife, the only remaining warriors of the Han Army launched their last charge! The blood flower began to bloom again.......
The sound of horses' hooves in the distance sounded like thunder, and it was a little unreal to hear in the shouts and fighting sounds of the Hun cavalry. But then the drums sounded, and the sound was so uplifting. This is the golden drum of the Han family!
The fatigue after the fierce fighting and the bleeding of serious injuries finally caused the Black Eagle Knights to become fewer and fewer, and their lives withered and gradually died. After killing more than a dozen Hun cavalrymen, Ye Heng finally fell off his horse in a collision with a tower-like Hun commander.
He was hit by three arrows and wounded six times by his sword and axe...... Ye Heng, who fell on the grass with his back facing the sky, turned his face sideways with all his last strength and looked at the sky to the south. The sky is blue, and the clouds are beginning to appear. When he was a teenager, he was a cold urn in spring, talking and laughing about heroes!
Presumably, the newly brewed wine in the winery in the east of Chang'an City has begun to smell again, right? The wife and children at home should be safe and .......
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he laughed...... Jin agitated and shocked the sky, and the Han arrows flew towards the Huns! The arrows of the Red Fire Army of the Han Dynasty started and officially engaged the Hun cavalry.
