"The Huns besieged us like wolves. All around were the Huns. We've never been in a situation like this. Despite the fact that we have guns in our hands. But it can't withstand the siege like a wolf pack. I once heard the story of the wolf told by the Huns, and we didn't care at that time, thinking that we had advanced killing weapons in our hands. These pose no threat at all. But now, we know that we were wrong. Wrong and very ignorant. ”

"The purpose of the Huns is simply to consume our ammunition. Especially in the evening or at night, they would ride horses back and forth. We can only shoot in vain, especially since the machine gun consumes too many bullets. We couldn't shoot back-to-back. The situation during the day was basically under the surveillance of the Huns. We were only able to spare a third of our men to rest, then eat, and then we began to slowly shift our positions. We want to go back as soon as possible. Or get in touch with the big forces. ”

"What is my plan, we have one hundred and twenty-seven at the moment. I divided the personnel into three battle groups. The first, second battle groups provide cover, and the third battle group moves to the target under our cover. Usually within two hundred steps. That's where we hit it the most. The Huns would not have advanced in that position. Because they can't afford casualties. ”

"In the battle the day before. That's how they tried to stop us. As a result, under the heavy fire of our machine guns, they lost hundreds of people. After that attack, the Huns seemed to have learned to behave. They no longer launch massive charges during the day. They just sent a certain amount of cavalry to watch over us and prevent us from escaping. In fact, we can't do that anymore. Shooting on horseback is not possible with machine guns. Light machine guns were ok, but the horses couldn't stand it. ”

"Let's talk about the battle, after the successful transfer of the third battle group, we are transferring the first and second battle groups. But this method of transfer is simply too slow. So, sometimes, we try to run away from this place as fast as we can. ”

This is a blood-stained battle notebook. This notebook was discovered by Qin State patrols from a distant place. At that time, a group of wolves were gnawing on some bones, and Qin Jun was curious to drive away these wolves. Then I found out that it was the body of my own person. Then this operational notebook was discovered. As for what happened before these bones. They know too little.

This battle notebook was found in a combat leather bag of bones. This meant the loss of one officer of the Qin army. These losses were quickly reported. The local command began to send a group of staff officers to investigate the matter. Little by little, the contents of this blood-stained battle notebook began to become known.

"The worst day is coming. Our horses have suffered heavy losses. Only a few horses can be used. Luckily, there was some ammunition, food, water around us. The night is for the Huns. The night gave them good cover, and the moon was the first quarter moon and provided very limited illumination. We were tired and we couldn't escape in the woods, so the Huns would lay an ambush there, or deliberately leave us an open space, and then launch a surprise attack at night. Such attacks come several times at night. Our spirits crumbled in the night. ”

"On this day, the Huns launched a small attack. We are exhausted coping. They rode horses, took advantage of the darkness of the night to run back and forth, and then suddenly attacked. Just when we cope. We did not find that some of the Huns dismounted and fought on foot. They crept up on our horses and stole most of them. They are good hands on horseback. Those damn horses. We lost our mobility, and the next thing we had to do was to walk on our own two legs. Unfortunately, we have to carry so much of what we have left. And we have less than eighty of us. "Here are a few recent articles.

The staff officer wrote out as many words as he could. They were going to report him to Meng Tian. These articles made the staff officers begin to imagine how tragic the battle that took place at that time was. And the command of the Qin army began to send some scouts to catch some Huns for interrogation. They need to understand what the hell is going on.

"The fighting is getting fiercer. I'm tired, there aren't many of us anymore. I guess it's time for me to say something. Parents who are far away from home, sons, can't honor you anymore. It is right to sacrifice one's life for one's country. But I don't know if we're doing the right thing. The war here is not as I imagined. I can't control that much of these things. I just hope you take care. ”

This is the last one, and some of them are only dated and then turned black. This is the color of the blood stains after they have oxidized.

According to the date of the last record, it was seven days before the Qin army first found this battle notebook, and the subsequent investigation was nearly half a month at the earliest. And the weather in the north has changed. All military operations have been canceled for the time being. The cold is coming.

"According to the records we have registered, a total of 195 people were dispatched at that time." A staff officer took the document and reported to Meng Tian.

"In addition, according to the Hun prisoners we captured. They did kill those people in those days. And more than 3,000 people were dispatched to hunt our men. The situation is very tragic. They also had losses of five hundred to eight hundred men, when our men finally died in battle. The Huns trampled the corpses of our soldiers with horses' hooves. Feed the wolves at the end. The latter paragraph, which was deduced by the staff officer based on the situation at the scene, was actually a cruel scene that was even more brutal than he described. Everywhere there was minced meat, limbs, internal organs. Wherever flies gather, there are them.

"Why didn't we take action at that time?" Meng Tian sat on the chair and asked expressionlessly.

"At the time, we already felt wrong. As a result, most of the military operations were temporarily canceled. Including patrolmen. And, we're shrinking our defenses. So ・・・・・・," said the staff officer.

"Whew." Meng Tian exhaled a heavy breath.

"You know what? This was the heaviest loss ever suffered from the battle against the Huns. None of our losses before exceeded hundreds. Not even the Yueshi people. Right now. We lost a company of men at once. Meng Tian said.

"Whew. Report this matter. We're going to have to beat this damn Hun wolf to death. Otherwise, something like this has to happen. Meng Tian said with some annoyance.

The staff officer nodded. Then he went out and drew up a telegram to send to Xianyang and the kings of Qin.
