Chapter 367: Hami's Great Victory
p
Relying on the strategy of secretly giving up food to the enemy, although it succeeded in keeping the Rouran army, it also put Hami in danger.
Solving the worry of food shortage, the Rouran people launched a fierce offensive against Hami, which once put Hami in danger.
"Kill, kill ...... me"
Yu Jiulu Shelun has fallen into madness, and there is only one thought in his mind: recklessly, break Hami.
Under the continuous rushing and killing of the Rouran people, Hami City finally reached the last moment.
At this time, there were less than 300 soldiers left in Hami City, not only were they already exhausted, but they were all wounded.
Seeing that the reinforcements were still far away, Li Sui and the remnants of the soldiers couldn't help but despair.
"The Hexi Army only has the robe of the dead in battle, but there are no soldiers who surrender to the enemy."
"This matter has come to this point, it is irretrievable, and we can only die to make our will clear."
"Du Wei said very much, Lao Tzu would rather die in battle and get the title of martyr and entrust his family to Dadu Protector than make such a humiliating act as surrendering."
"Yes, if the husband dies, he will die, so why are you afraid?!"
Thanks to Hexi's perfect pension system, the Hexi army is not worried about what will happen after death.
Because, Dadu Hu has proved to everyone with the blood of countless people: those who dare to infringe on the interests of martyrs will be killed!
At the last moment, Li Sui picked up the horizontal knife and Huo Ran and killed the Rouran people.
The rest of the soldiers saw that the main general rushed forward, and without the slightest hesitation, they also followed and killed.
Even if one fell one after another, they did not choose to surrender.
After fighting for a while, Li Sui was covered in blood, and his consciousness gradually blurred, but the attack of the Rouran people around him increased instead of decreasing.
Seeing that Hami was about to fall, a huge sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded from behind Rouran.
Li Sui tried to raise his eyes, but saw smoke and dust rising in the distance, and it was obvious that a large group of cavalry was attacking quickly.
At the front of the team, there was the sun and moon battle flag flying high.
Originally, he was desperate, but when he saw the Sun and Moon Military Flag, Li Sui's expression was suddenly shocked.
He excitedly shouted around: "Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming, kill, kill me......"
Reinforcements are coming!
The morale of the more than 100 remnants of the soldiers on the city wall was greatly boosted, and their bodies seemed to have more strength out of thin air.
In the face of the earth-shattering changes, Rouran people felt an unprecedented fear, and Yu Jiulu Shelun's head was even more blank.
……
In the early winter of 394 AD, Wang Maide led his army to make a detour to the Eastern Tianshan Mountains and raided the Rouran army from the flank, opening the prelude to the war of the Western Regions.
Unlike the high-morale expeditionary force, after a month of bloody fighting, the Rouran people are at the end of their power.
After a full rest and rest, when Hami was about to be broken, the iron cavalry army suddenly launched, and a roaring thunder sounded.
The Rouran people did not expect that the Hexi Army would dare to go deep into the prairie, so they had to rush into battle.
So fast! Eighteen thousand Hexi iron horsemen, like a hurricane blowing, trampled directly towards the Rouran people's array.
As soon as the ferocious Hexi Iron Cavalry rushed in, it instantly broke through the formation of the Rouran people, as if entering a no-man's land.
With its strong mobility and impact, the Hexi Iron Cavalry is constantly interspersed in the Rouran array.
Seeing this scene, Rouran Khan's face changed drastically.
If it was in a normal state, Yu Jiulu Shelun would never believe that anyone could easily penetrate the Rouran cavalry array.
But now, the whole army of Rouran has been exhausted and dragged down by the Hami defenders.
Under the repeated charging and killing of the Hexi Iron Cavalry, the formation of the army gradually collapsed.
"Kill, kill."
"Wansheng, Huaxia Wansheng."
Nearly 20,000 Hexi Iron Cavalry roared while rushing to kill, causing Li Xun and other remnants of the defenders to also shout.
At this moment, the hearts of the defenders inside the city seem to be closely linked to the hearts of the cavalry outside the city.
They are heart-to-heart and fight for the same goal.
Wang Maide's goal was very clear, and he divided the cavalry in his hand into several units, which were handed over to the three generals of Fuqu Nancheng, Qigan Ali, and Bald Wei Tan.
The three generals lined up in echelons, and wave after wave continued to rush towards the direction of the Rouran Chinese army.
Watching the 18,000 Hexi cavalry attack like mercury, cold sweat broke out on the forehead of Rouran Khan.
The Rouran people, who were completely in chaos, couldn't stop the progress of the Hexi Iron Cavalry at all.
"Block them, stop them."
Under the strict orders of Yu Jiulu Shelun, finally a Rouran general led people to intercept immediately, and the Rouran people fought back desperately and finally delayed the offensive of the Hexi Army.
However, the initiative on the battlefield is still in the hands of Hexi, and it is not easy for the Rouran people to fight back.
Because on the battlefield, Rouran not only can't keep up with her physical strength, but also her tactics and equipment are not comparable to the Hexi Army.
Overall, it is clear that the Rouran people are at an absolute disadvantage.
"Kill!"
After the roar, the Hexi cavalry began to slash and slash at all the Rouran people who tried to hinder their advance.
Under the brave rush of the Hexi cavalry, the Rouran cavalry that blocked the way was finally about to collapse.
"Great Khan, withdraw your troops."
Seeing that the situation was critical, the minister hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "I'm afraid it's too late if you don't leave." ”
Yu Jiulu Shelun's face twitched, he turned around and stared at the prime minister viciously, and said angrily: "If you dare to disturb the hearts of our army, Ben Khan will never spare it." ”
"At present, the whole army is in danger, and Ben Khan is where the morale of the army lies."
"Once you abandon the army and flee alone, the army is bound to collapse!"
"The Chuan Ben Khan will order, anyone who dares to take a step back will be killed!"
The prime minister next to him was about to persuade again, but he was glared at by Yu Jiulu Shelun, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything more.
Although the situation was very unfavorable, Yu Jiulu Shelun never thought of retreating, he knew the truth of pulling a trigger and moving the whole body.
Any undesirable move by the Chinese army will inevitably lead to the collapse of the entire army, and the situation will be irreparable.
Even so, it is better to fight to the death, and maybe you can still win a glimmer of life.
What's more, this expedition to the west has gambled on most of Rouran's capital, and once defeated, I am afraid that there will be no place for Rouran to live in the world.
The sudden attack certainly made the Rouran people confused, but fortunately, Yu Jiulu Shelun did not lose his mind.
Under the continuous encouragement of Rouran Khan, the Rouran people rose up one by one and fought bravely.
Wang Maide, who had been directing the cavalry to charge behind the scenes, saw this scene, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The sporadic counterattacks of the Rouran people, although they seemed to be full of blood, caused even more chaos due to the lack of unified command.
And indirectly helped the Hexi Iron Cavalry to complete tactical tasks such as charging and killing, dividing, and encircling.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Wang Maide immediately ordered the final blow to the enemy.
"Kill Hu! Kill Hu! ”
With a roar, a group of men and horses suddenly rushed out from the Hexi army, and the leader was a bald general.
The entire team used the bald Wei Tan as an arrow, instantly piercing the Rouran formation, and it was only one step away from the Rouran Khan.
The sound of dense iron hooves sounded, and the sound of iron hooves seemed to be rhythmic, and it trampled on the hearts of all the soft people.
When Yu Jiulu Shelun was shocked, the bald Wei Tan was about to rush to him.
On horseback, the brave and invincible general of Hexi was staring at him with a pair of cold eyes.
"Kill him!" Rouran Khan pointed at the bald Maidan and yelled.
The personal guards cavalry received the order and immediately rushed forward.
They divided into two teams and flanked the bald Otan who was in the lead.
At this time, a sneer came out from the corner of Yu Jiulu's mouth, he was laughing at the bald Wei Tan who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and dared to rush into battle single-handedly.
However, before the sneer on the corner of Yu Jiulu's mouth faded, he saw the bald hair and the long knives flying up and down.
After a glorious time, he was surrounded and killed by the personal guard cavalry, and fought a bloody way.
Those Rouran cavalry didn't even see anything clearly, they only felt a chill in their necks, and they lost consciousness in an instant.
How is this possible?! The Rouran Khan quickly went from shock to panic.
In an instant, he saw only a flash of silver light, and the centaurs had rushed closer.
Although he often goes into battle, as a soft sweat, Yu Jiulu Shelun has not done it himself for a long time.
When he swung his saber and tried to slash at the bald man, he realized that the reality was very different from the ideal.
Almost between breaths, the bald Wei Tan swept past Yu Jiulu Shelun like a gust of wind.
At the same time, Rouran Khan felt his entire body fly up like a cloud.
Whether it is the Rouran people or the Hexi people, all the people who saw all this almost couldn't believe it.
Rouran Khan was so easily captured by the bald Wei Tan.
Soon all the Hexi people on the battlefield began to shout wildly, and even Li Xun and others who were watching the battle at the head of the city also shouted wildly.
"Hexi Army! Hexi Army! ”
"Hexi Army! Hexi Army! ”
At the same time, all the Rouran people began to feel fear from the depths of their hearts, and their morale began to fall wildly.
With the Great Khan captured, they could no longer afford to resist.
In the shock of countless Rouran people, nearly 20,000 Hexi cavalry had surrounded them......
