Chapter 63: A Surprise Attack from Dong Zhuojun

The night was deep, the moonlight was already a little dim, and the Hun soldiers who had won a big victory rested peacefully after being excited. A hurried sound of horses' hoofs, from far and near, attracted the attention of the guards, and a troop of horsemen galloped towards the gate.

The leader was Wan Qijian, who was gloomy in color, his face was covered with blood, and he was embarrassed. He was followed by Wang De and more than 100 soldiers, who were also in tatters. Looking back from time to time, there was some surprise in his eyes, and from time to time he recalled the banner with the word "Dong" in his mind, Wan Qijin almost gritted his teeth.

"Who? Hold it! The commander standing on the high platform saw the cavalry rushing from the darkness and said coldly. The nearby Hun soldiers were also on guard, wound their bows, and aimed at the darkness.

Lowering the speed of the horse, Wan Qianjin squinted his eyes and said loudly: "I am Wan Qijin, the commander of the guard's army, open the camp gate quickly!" The commander opened his eyes wide and stared down, his vision was a little blurry under the darkness, vaguely blurred, as if it was Wan Qianjin.

Ji Lou Yuan was extremely strict in governing the army, even if the other party reported Wan Qianjian, he still didn't dare to relax. Wan Qian was below, seeing his hesitation and suspicion, and constantly patrolling, he suddenly became a little impatient, and drove the horse to lead people forward.

Seeing the movements of the cavalry at the end, the commander immediately stopped loudly: "Stop!" One step further and no mercy! The voice of the commander fell, and the bowstrings in the hands of the surrounding soldiers were instantly full, and they looked at Wan Qijin and the others with murderous energy.

Seeing this, Wan Qian immediately deterred, he believed that as long as he stepped forward with any changes, the Hun soldiers on the walled tower would definitely not hesitate to shoot them with arrows. Looking back at the back again, Wan Qian said a little anxiously: "There is an attack by the Han army, quickly notify Da Shan Yu and warn the army, there is no time to drag it on!" ”

When the commander heard this, a look of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and he was about to speak, when he heard the sound of rolling horses' hooves in the distance, and there was really a large army attacking in the darkness. The commander didn't dare to be careless, and said to Wan Qianjin: "You wait, I'll inform Da Danyu to go!" ”

After speaking, regardless of Wan Qijian, who had an ugly face, he ordered the soldiers to blow the trumpet to warn, strictly guard the gate of the wall, and if the cavalry below made any abnormal moves, they would immediately shoot and kill. Hurriedly went downstairs and ran to the Chinese military tent.

The quiet Hun camp was awakened by a piercing horn, and the guards who were the pro-army of Ji Lou Yuan quickly woke up, put on armor, carried knives and mounted their horses, lined up in formation, and firmly protected Ji Lou Yuan. The rest of the Hun soldiers were much slower and a little flustered, and for some reason, the commanders and centurions shouted as hard as they could, trying to stabilize the soldiers.

Ji Lou Yuan quickly got up, with the help of his personal guards, dressed up, met with the commander of the report, listened to his report, and quickly walked out of the big tent, wanting to find out the specific situation.

As soon as they came out of the tent, the Hun camp had fallen into a killing sound, and thousands of Han cavalry had already entered the Hun camp, and the sword soldiers were in flames. This Han cavalry was obviously elite, brave and decisive in battle, and had outstanding fighting ability, and many Hun soldiers were killed as soon as they reacted, and screams rang out.

The night before yesterday, the Han army was raided and won, and in the second half of the night, it was counterattacked by the Han cavalry, and the Huns had not yet reacted, the Hun army was not all elite, and many troops had been stunned. Ji Lou Yuan's expression was a little solemn, looking at the banner of the word "Dong" raging in the camp, it was Dong Zhuo, how could they appear here, Ji Lou Yuan was a little puzzled.

"Herald! The generals gathered their soldiers to resist day by day, and the battalions shrank their forces to stabilize the situation, so as not to be completely disrupted by the Han army! Ji Lou Yuan resolutely ordered. Restraining the guards and the pro-army and firmly stabilizing the Chinese army camp, he saw that there were not many Han soldiers, as long as the most elite Chinese army was stabilized, the situation would not collapse.

The Xiongnu army reacted quickly enough under the command of Ji Louyuan, but the Han army was not vegetarian, and it was even more comfortable to occupy the advantage of the first hand in the raid. The Hedong cavalry fought very orderly, and several cavalry generals bravely rushed to the front, causing great casualties to the Huns.

The Han army was divided into several groups, with a strong purpose, some of them set fire to the camp, some rushed to kill and gather to resist, some rushed straight to the stables, and some attacked the prisoner camp. There were many Han soldiers from all walks of life, but they were all at the best attack point, and each hand was a must-attack place, hitting seven inches above the Hun army.

The commander of the Han army should be Dong Zhuo, it really can't be underestimated, looking at the Han army that pressed the Hun army with a weak force, Ji Louyuan clenched his fists. "Wu Huali, you lead two thousand pro-troops to the prisoner camp to support, you are not allowed to let the Han army break through, if there is turmoil among the prisoners, kill!" Ji Lou Yuan ordered fiercely.

Wu Huali also knew that the situation was urgent, and immediately led the army to go, there were 20,000 prisoners on the side of the prisoner camp, and if they were rescued by the Han army, it would be a big incident. Ji Lou Yuan nervously looked at the battle situation in the camp, after half an hour of fighting, after paying huge casualties, the Xiongnu finally slowly stabilized the situation and recovered some of the decline.

At this time, Wan Qian was already on the front line, extremely brave, and led a large part of the Xiongnu army. Ji Louyuan's eyes frantically rotated around the battlefield, looking for the weak points of the Han army, and mobilizing the sergeants to counterattack.

After stabilizing the situation, Ji Louyuan began to send heavy troops to the prisoner camp, and the Han army came to attack, and the previous prisoners would not be indifferent, and the riot unfolded in an instant. Cooperate with the Dong army on the periphery to attack, counter-grab weapons, the Hun army is a little chaotic, even if there are two thousand guards led by Wu Huali to suppress the formation, it is also quite difficult, and the situation is once shaky.

With the shift of the center of gravity of the Xiongnu army, the Han and Hungarian armies fought brutally and fiercely around the captive camp. Thousands of Han captives have escaped, joined the Hedong army, and fought fiercely with the Huns, they were physically and mentally exhausted, and suddenly smelled the breath of life and freedom, and the potential in their bodies was stimulated.

After mobilizing heavy troops and paying more than 3,000 casualties, and finally suppressing the riot in the prisoner camp, Uhuali organized soldiers to divide the Han army and began to slowly compress the Han army's offensive space.

Seeing that he could no longer make progress, the commander of the Hedong cavalry decisively shifted the target of the attack and led the Han army to attack in other directions, wanting to break the situation that the Huns had slowly stabilized. Seeing Han Qi turning, Wu Huali breathed a sigh of relief, and his vest was completely soaked.

"Show me the remaining Han prisoners, hold this place, and if there is resistance, kill!" Murderously ordered a few commanders, leading the army to support other battlefields.

Outside the Xiongnu camp, a rather heroic and powerful Han army general looked coldly at the chaotic Xiongnu camp, it was Dong Zhuo. "The combat power of the Huns is really not to be underestimated, our army attacked so suddenly, and reacted so quickly. There are also a lot of talents, the previous Helan Dangfu, and the fierce general, Zhang Yi was not unjustly defeated! Dong Zhuo said with emotion.

Li Ru beside him nodded, pointed to the battlefield with a serious face and said: "Lord, our army is short of people after all, the Huns have already reacted, and if it drags on, I'm afraid Dong Yue's side won't be able to support it!" ”

In another quarter of an hour, the first Han general led nearly 10,000 Han army foot soldiers to support, Dong Zhuo, who was originally a little worried, was suddenly overjoyed, and said to the leading captain: "Niu Fu, give me to be escorted up immediately to attack the Xiongnu army!" ”

In the face of this sudden appearance of a large number of Han army reinforcements, the situation that the Xiongnu had slowly controlled fluctuated again. Ji Louyuan's heart sank, fortunately, the battlefield was fierce, and the Huns were not as unprepared as before. After defeating Zhang Yi, except for the people sent out, there were only more than 30,000 troops left in the Xiongnu camp, which was raided by the Dong army, with losses of no less than six or seven thousand, and thousands of soldiers were left to watch the prisoners, and the number of fighters was only 20,000.

The Hun camp had been completely destroyed, the flames were raging, and the battlefield was fierce. Looking at the new force of the Han army that came straight to his own Chinese army, Ji Louyuan understood the purpose of his "beheading". Without much hesitation, he ordered loudly: "Attack, let the Han army know the strength of the warriors of my most elite army of the Huns!" ”

With Ji Louyuan's order, the 3,000 guards who had not been mobilized rushed up against the Han army's foot soldiers, and cooperated with the rest of the supporting Hun soldiers to push them back.

As the most elite army of the Xiongnu, Da Dan is the most trusted blade, and the guards are like a sharp knife, deeply piercing the heart of the Han army. Soon after the two sides held each other, the Han infantry could not face its impact directly, and were defeated and retreated.

These Han soldiers are not elite after all, and coupled with the long-distance travel, they have little advantage in the face of the Huns in terms of physical strength. Dong Zhuo and Li Ru behind them almost pulled off their beards, they never thought that the Xiongnu Chinese army would retain such an absolute force. It was Dong Zhuo who went into battle in person, and the general would maintain the offensive of the Han army.

After a long battle, Dong Zhuo saw that he could not defeat the Huns, and looked at the Hun army that was slowly gaining the upper hand, and retreated. The left and right have been successfully raided, giving the Huns a huge blow, gathering the soldiers, and retreating while fighting. Gradually disengaged from the Huns and slowly withdrew to the north, he didn't dare to go west or south, he was afraid that he would be dumplings by the Huns, and Zang Min should enter Xihe County.

In the middle of the night, Ji Louyuan did not dare to order the pursuit, he naturally thought of the Taiyuan army, the Hun army had fought so far, and the combat strength was also poor.

The battle came to an end, the battlefield slowly returned to calm, looking at the mess in one place, Ji Louyuan had a gloomy face and ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and collect the scattered war horses. Just by glancing at the battlefield, he knew that the attack of the Hedong Army had caused him a big loss!
