Chapter 42: Forced Confrontation
At the beginning of the day, the entire bank of the river had not yet shaken off the darkness, and a glimmer of light leaked from the distant sky, dragging the arrival of the morning light. This time point is not the best time to carry out a surprise attack, the morning light is approaching, and the slaughter is almost resting, and the sleepiness has been relaxed, but although Shan Yujun has a day of forced rest, his spirit is a little tired at this moment.
Ji Louyuan also knew that this was not the best time to attack, but if you want to cross the river and attack at night, night blindness is a hurdle that cannot be avoided. Two years ago, he attacked Xianbei in the west, and carried out many night attacks on the Xianbei tribe, affected by night vision, not only the Xianbei people were chaotic, but the Xiongnu themselves were also greatly affected, and there were many unnecessary casualties.
This time, if the tens of thousands of troops carry out a night attack, I am afraid that it will be even more chaotic. And the tens of thousands of Hun knights don't have many real elites, once the scene falls into chaos and gets out of control, it will be the result of both defeats, which is not what Ji Lou Yuan wants.
led 2,000 Wu clan's troops, plus 1,000 warriors transferred by Ji Louyuan, to lead the army. Wearing a felt hat and leather armor, Wu Yue led people to the shore, looked at the cold and lonely opposite bank, and indifferently ordered: "Cross the river, attack!"
After saying that, when he went down to the river, three thousand Hun cavalry also went down the river, with the determination to advance without retreating, under the impact of the river, he forcibly crossed the attack and left. On the other side, Ju Zheng carefully arranged hundreds of people to patrol day and night, and when Shan Yujun gathered on the south bank, he had already sounded the trumpet to warn, and at this moment, he saw 3,000 warriors "don't die" to attack the underground river, and immediately panicked.
Seeing that Wu Yue was about to cross the river with his people, he reacted and drew his bow to launch scattered attacks, with little effect. There were only less than 100 Tu Ge patrols in this section, and Wu Yue would not give them a chance to react, so he quickly led people to break up to the river bank and attack the enemy army.
It was the solidity of the land on the shore that made people feel reassured, and the Hun soldiers who came ashore couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Raising his eyes and looking at the slaughter camp not far from the river bank, the other side was a mixed scene, but there were already people under the leadership of the generals, who had left the camp to face this side, and there were more and more people.
Wu Yue's eyes were cold, he raised his blood-stained scimitar, and shouted: "Kill!" Then he took the lead and rushed forward against the surging army of Tuge, followed closely by Uhuali and other men, guarding the flank. On the side of the Xiongnu army, Ji Louyuan saw that Wuyue successfully crossed the river, and without the slightest hesitation, he decisively attacked Tu Ge, and secretly praised that he really didn't use the wrong person. Under the order, the 30,000-strong army slowly went into the water to cross the river, and the boats and bamboo rafts were used, striving to cross the river as soon as possible, and the real big war was coming.
Slaughtering the major camps, Ju Zheng was anxious, and rushed to lead people towards the riverbank. When the patrol whistle sounded the trumpet, he was awakened and covered in cold sweat. These days, Ji Lou Yuan was blocked on the other side of the river, which made him quite proud, but he never imagined that Shan Yujun would launch a surprise attack at this time. Careless, Ju Ji sighed in his heart.
forcibly woke up the sleeping Tu Ge soldiers and ran to the river bank, many Tu Ge warriors were still sleepy-eyed and forced to fight with spirit. Rushing to the southwest for more than three miles, the three thousand troops who were being attacked by Wuyue, the two sides did not have the slightest nonsense, and after a rush, each fell a group of people, and quickly collided with each other.
Close to hand, catch and kill, fierce confrontation immediately began. Iron Horse Jingo, life and death fight, life is ruthlessly harvested. Wuyue did not leave a way back for himself, did not avoid life and death, and kept charging forward, slashing left and right, leading three thousand Hun warriors to slaughter all the armies, and intercepting them alive.
Ju Ji looked at Shan Yujun, who was outnumbered and attacked his own army, and his heart was heavy. Looking at the bank of the river, Ji Louyuan's army began to rise, wading up the bank, and lined up on the bank. Wu Yue obviously also noticed the movement of the army behind him, and took the initiative to boost morale, and continued to slaughter everyone regardless of casualties.
Ju Ji hesitated a little, he didn't know how to choose, but he was in battle but the enemy couldn't give him much time to entangle. After wasting nearly a quarter of an hour, Ju Ji viciously ordered the people around him: "Let Yuanju pull everyone out of the camp for me, these three thousand people are not afraid of death, then I will fulfill them, destroy them first, and then deal with the army of Ji Louyuan." Let the warriors all attack, and those who dare to retreat, kill! ”
As soon as Tu Ge's side exerted his strength, Wu Yue suddenly felt that the pressure increased greatly, and he couldn't rush anymore, and the casualties of his troops suddenly rose in a straight line. There were few people, and they were almost surrounded and killed by the slaughtering army. But Wu Yue didn't panic at all, and so did his soldiers, and the Shan Yu army that kept coming ashore behind him was their confidence.
There were already hundreds of people on the side of the main army of the royal court, and they were drenched, but they were full of excitement when they saw the battlefield in the distance. Yuanju quickly brought reinforcements over, and had the intention to go to the shore to resist the Hun army, but was stopped by Ju Ji, he was afraid that the two sides would not please him. Ju Zheng was already completely anxious, and ordered the soldiers to increase the encirclement and suppression of the Wuyue army. "Kill! Kill! Kill! Ju Ji frantically urged the Tu soldiers to attack the Wuyue army.
Chi Yi shook off his hair that was wet with the river water, looked at the more than 4,000 tribal warriors gathered around him, didn't care about how much, and decisively "killed", leading people to rush to the battlefield to support Wuyue, who was entangled in Ju Ji.
Wu Yue's face was covered with blood, sweat slid down his eyes, and he didn't care about the uncomfortable feeling at all. The situation on his side was already precarious, and under the frantic attacks of the Tu various armies, he was more and more unable to exert his strength. More than half of the soldiers under his command have been killed and wounded, and almost everyone who is still fighting fiercely is wounded, if it were not for Wu Yue and others to take the lead and forcibly support them, I am afraid that they would have already collapsed and been completely annihilated.
Behind him, there was a movement of Chi Yi's army to support, which suddenly aroused the last blood of the Wuyue army, fighting for his life, and reaching the climax of the confrontation. Seeing Chiyi's attack, Ju Ji had no choice but to divide his troops and refuse, but the attack on Wuyue did not relax at all, but strengthened, wanting to cut off the last breath of Wuyue's army.
Wuyue was also completely out of the way, and his subordinates saw that the soldiers of Hope were also crazy, and they fought unrestrainedly, facing the enemy troops in all directions, slashing wildly, and counterattacking to the southwest. As soon as Chi Yi came into contact with the Ju Ji army, he ignored it, and the army formed an arrow, slammed into the army formation, and almost chiseled through the Tu army that was being pinned down. At this time, Chi Yi's command art was embodied, and the polemic array commanded on the spot, and the generals under Ji Louyuan were unsurpassed. constantly seized the loopholes in the military formation of the slaughterers, and constantly transferred soldiers, and soon broke through to the outside of the encirclement.
"Rubbish!" Seeing that thousands of troops couldn't stop Chi Yi for a moment, Ju Ji scolded angrily. Seeing that the besieging soldiers in the southwest were scattered and joined by Wuyue under the onslaught of Chiyi from the periphery, Ju Ji understood that the elimination of the Wuyue army was completely defeated, and the situation of Tu Ge fell into the upper hand, and Ji Louyuan on the river bank had personally led tens of thousands of cavalry to land, and a steady stream of Xiongnu warriors came ashore.
Ju Ji was helpless, and began to slowly restrain the soldiers, change the formation, and slowly disengage from the fighting Shan Yujun. He also knew in his heart at this moment that if he continued to entangle with the two armies of Wuyue and Chiyi, and waited for Ji Louyuan to attack, the situation of the Tu armies would be out of control.
Leaving 3,000 soldiers to stay in the camp, Ji Louyuan pulled out all the remaining people. He led more than 20,000 people to reinforce him, and joined forces with the Chiyi and Wuyue armies, and the army of more than 28,000 people lined up and confronted the Tu army.
During this time, Ju Zheng summoned thousands of people from the Tu tribes of various counties, and at this time the empty camp came out, more than 25,000 horsemen, and held on to the army of Ji Louyuan.
More than 50,000 horsemen on both sides waited for each other, and such a cavalry battle had not been fought in the grassland for a long time. The war is about to break out, the murderous spirit is wanton on the grassland, and the momentum is calm.
Ji Lou Yuan's cold voice spread throughout the soldiers of the two armies: "Tu Ge's subordinates, I Ji Lou Yuan, the Hun Da Danyu, I respectfully inform you." Ju Ji has reached the end of the road, this battle of my royal army will win, I advise you to get rid of Ju Ji as soon as possible, to save your life, so as not to die senselessly! The tens of thousands of surrounding troops immediately shouted in unison: "Victory!" Win! The momentum was monstrous, shaking the heavens and the earth, and the momentum suddenly overwhelmed the Tu various armies.
Seeing that Ji Lou Yuan was still going to shake the hearts of his own army like this, Ju Ji said angrily: "Ji Lou Yuan, don't think that you will win when you cross the river, my army is not inferior to you, if you want to defeat me, don't think!" ”
