Chapter 036: Harassing the Enemy Outside
At dawn, in a hidden valley, Qin Shen and his soldiers had just entered the Hun cavalry that had just been stationed here.
The whole night before that, everyone had not had half a moment of leisure.
After a short break from the first attack on the camp, he once again regrouped his team and rushed to Half Moon Valley.
As he expected, there was a small group of Huns in Taniguchi who were waiting for him to take a defensive posture, but he did not expect him to return so quickly, and hurriedly meet the team that had not yet been fully assembled to meet and intercept it.
And Qin Shen didn't have a short handover with the other party, but just made a beautiful arc in the oblique stab, shooting out a few waves of arrows and disappearing into the night, so that the opponent who lacked the range of the bow and arrow had no way to start.
After tossing the Xiongnu in the Half Moon Valley to exhaustion, another order was issued, and then the army hid into the deep grassland, taking advantage of the night to kick several Xiongnu camps that were rushing to the Half Moon Valley to gather.
The fortunate escapees quickly reported the situation to the Half Moon Valley for help, so far Gao Tu Ang was angry and exhausted the elite in the valley, looking for traces of the Han army along the line, and was bound to annihilate the Han army in the dark, but how difficult it was, and finally let Qin Shen and others escape at night and hide in the valley.
"Tsk, general, I really admire you so much, like this kind of hidden place, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to know in my life, but I never thought that you would easily find it." Cao Jin looked around and gave him a thumbs up.
Qu Han, who was looking around the environment, heard this, and nodded subconsciously in agreement.
Qin Shen sighed in his heart, and he only felt extremely tired, and squinted at him and said in a long voice: "Uncle Cao, do you have to do this every day to survive?" ”
"Hey, the general is fallacious!" Cao Jin denied it in a matter-of-fact manner, and after smiling honestly, he scratched his head as if he couldn't figure it out: "Actually, I don't want to be like this, but every time I see the general's genius, I can't help but admire." ”
“……”
Qin Shen was helpless and speechless for a while, and it took a long time for him to come to his senses, cough lightly and change the topic: "Fighting all night, the brothers must be extremely tired, you go and tell everyone that there is no action after that, just rest here in peace, huh...... Send scouts to investigate the situation in Half Moon Valley again......"
After a slight pause, he muttered: "Thinking that the Huns are very well guarded today, you let the scouts only need to pay attention to whether the other party has a large army to attack Wuquan, and there is no need to get close to observe the movements in the valley." ”
"Yui." Cao Jin listened carefully to the order, and then said unsatisfied: "Don't attack the camp again today?" ”
Qin Shen glanced at him angrily when he heard this, but nodded in approval: "This is exactly what I want, and after last night's battle, I found that the Huns are as stupid as pigs, so why don't I send you to fight into the enemy camp single-handedly, how about it?" ”
Cao Jin made a deep self-hypnotic moment of self-hypnosis, raised his head suddenly, and said arrogantly: "What the general said is very true! But...... I suddenly felt a little sleepy, so it's not too late to wait for next time. ”
Looking at his pretentious appearance, Qin Shen couldn't wait to kick him to death with one kick, and hurriedly suppressed the evil fire that couldn't be released, and said viciously: "How many materials did you rob last night?" ”
"Some arrows, and about enough dried meat to eat for two days." Cao Jin replied immediately without the slightest hesitation.
When it comes to getting down to business, he's not ambiguous at all! Qin Shen nodded approvingly in his heart to show understanding, and then grinned: "Your brother Wuen should go and get busy." ”
"Yui." Cao Jin hugged his fists in response, turned around and muttered all the way in a daze, "What is Brother Wuen" and rushed to arrange affairs.
Looking at his departing back, Qu Han shook his head helplessly with a faint smile, and said, "Brother Qin doesn't think it's a little too strict with him?" ”
"Can't Brother Qu see that he is enjoying it and enjoying it very much?" Qin Shen looked at it, there was a strong warmth in his joking words, and after speaking, his eyes turned to the white belly of the fish, dismounted and leaned on each other, resting under the cold dew, and preached: "Brother Qu doesn't like to take care of military affairs, Xue Yu and the others are a little immature, only Cao Jin is still competent regardless of qualifications and ability, so he has to reluctantly ask him to be stricter." ”
Qu Han smiled faintly, turned his head and said, "Can I understand it like this?" Brother Qin has already begun to be dissatisfied with my behavior. ”
"Go!" Qin Shen snorted angrily and scolded with a smile: "Even if I am really dissatisfied with you, can you change half a point because of this?" ”
"It could be." Qu Han shrugged his shoulders noncommittally.
The Huns did not move for two consecutive days, and according to the scout's report, it was because all the siege equipment was burned in a fire that night, and now the army is carrying out a nationwide campaign to cut down trees and build vehicles.
Once again, he told the scouts to pay attention to their own safety and not to get too close, Qin Shen was also happy to hear this kind of news, and while he was idle and moldy in the valley, he even thought about whether to go to the cliff to shoot a few rockets, so that the Huns would be entangled in car building for the rest of their lives.
Not only did he think so, but he also put it into action when he was very bored that night, and invited Qu Han and others to come to the foot of the mountain again while the night was dark and windy, just looking at the bonfires everywhere on the mountain, listening to the sound and movement, knowing that the Huns were well guarded and wise, so he returned in a huff, but he couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: What about the so-called aura of the traverser? Why doesn't it work on me?
The next day, just after dawn, Cao Jin hurriedly reported that the Huns were burying the pot and cooking, and seeing the movement, it seemed that they were preparing to march to Wuquan, Qin Shen immediately gathered a team that had rested for several days and was eager to fight and rushed to the interception site.
At three o'clock in the morning, the Xiongnu horses pulling heavy siege equipment slowly entered everyone's sight from a distance.
Qin Shen raised his hand to issue an attack order, and led all the soldiers to use a simple but effective diagonal throwing tactic, so that every wave of arrow rain took away dozens or hundreds of people from the opponent, and whenever the baggage guards went up or divided into sides, they immediately retreated.
The competition in the prairie has always been like this, covering the sky and the earth, not being limited to the line or the ground.
The Xiongnu were played by the Han army and suffered heavy injuries at the same time, and had no choice but to ask for help from the Chinese army, and the commander Gao Tuang was also very angry when he heard the battle report, and immediately sent out ten thousand cavalry to encircle and annihilate Qin Shen and others, but more than 10,000 troops just rushed from the front more than ten miles, but they were told that the Han army had not long ago detoured to the direction of the Chinese army from a distance.
The cavalry who came to help was worried that the Chinese army would be attacked, and they hurried back, but after arriving at the Chinese army, they only saw a quiet and peaceful place, and at this time, the news of the baggage team asking for help came again.
After several times, Gao Tuang's face was gloomy with shame and anger in his heart, and his head flashed with a flash of inspiration, and he finally came up with an excellent way, that is, all the armies merged and moved slowly, and swore in the name of Changshengtian that if the Han army attacked, even if it was pursued for thousands of miles, it would be necessary to completely annihilate the other party.
However, when they merged, the Han cavalry never appeared again.
Despite this, Gao Tuang did not dare to be careless, so he walked dozens of miles on the grassland until the evening, and pulled the siege equipment to the Wuquan Pass and set up camp.
At this point, his plan to raid Wuquan finally came to an end and was declared to be in vain.
In the early morning of the next day, in another hidden small valley, when Cao Jin hurriedly stepped forward from a distance, he was immediately stunned by Qin Shen's back to the big tree, with grass stalks in his mouth, humming a small song, and tilting his calves as if he was enjoying the afternoon sun in his own backyard.
Glancing at the stunned other party, Qin Shen asked absentmindedly, "What's the matter?" ”
"Huh? Nothing. Cao Jin shook his head and replied casually when he woke up, and then a spirit completely woke up, and hurriedly said: "Oh! Something, general, the Huns have begun to attack the city. ”
"Siege is siege, what are you panicking about?" Qin Shen gave him an angry look.
Cao Jin was choked by him speechless for a moment, and his mind was caught off guard, and he couldn't get around for a while because of his unnatural attitude of not caring about himself, and he secretly wondered in his heart: General, what's wrong?
"Anything else?" Qin Shen asked with a frown in his eyes.
I'm not hallucinating, is it? Looking at the commander whose words and deeds were full of impatience, Cao Jin shook his head a few times in confusion, until he was sure that what he saw in front of him was not an illusion and the other party really had no intention of sending troops, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "This, I want to ask the general when will he send troops?" ”
"Who said I was going to send troops?" Qin Shen's eyes widened, and after speaking, he turned around and patted his thigh casually, and said lazily: "Wait first, let's see." ”
"Huh?" Cao Jin was stunned for a moment, although he didn't know what was going on with the general today, he still said in a muffled voice that was slightly dissatisfied with his attitude: "The brothers are holding back their strength, and they ......"
"Then tell them to leak first." Qin Shen raised his neck and broke it roughly, and after saying that, he felt that this was strange and muttered something to the hell, and ordered: "Take the scout back to a radius of five miles to hide his whereabouts, and then tell the brothers to save up for the past few days, and then I will have my own arrangements." ”
"Yui." Cao Jin reluctantly agreed.
Seeing his appearance, Qin Shen stared at him for a moment with burning eyes, and sighed: "If everyone in the army looks like you, this military spirit will be scattered...... Well, I'll tell you about my considerations, ...... now"
"The general doesn't need to say much!" Cao Jin interrupted suddenly, and with a hint of shame on his face, he hugged his fists and said: "It's inevitable that I will be impatient under the consecutive victories in the past few days, so I will go to appease the brothers and ensure that when the general sends out the troops, the momentum will be like a rainbow!" ”
