"The person who is now in power in the state is his son, and he is also the commander of this siege of the royal court. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"What!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this, they never thought that the achievements they were proud of in the past would now become a talisman.
Under the gaffe, he didn't care about his demeanor, and scolded the late Shan Yu Xubugu, which made Hu Chuquan and others on the side smile.
However, they didn't have time to accompany this group of people, so Hu Chuquan took the lead and asked Lao Wang to resign, not caring about everyone and Lao Wang's retention.
Seeing Hu Chuquan leave without hesitation, the object of everyone's venting became them again, and when they were tired of scolding, they began to accuse each other again, and when they really had no strength, and had to face the facts, what should they do next?
Fight or surrender?
Just when the Xiongnu leaders were arguing, Zhang Zai was already leading the army into Fenyang, this time he planned to lead the army to surround Meiji, if the Southern Xiongnu fled and merged with the state, it would be enough, if they dared to fight, then completely eliminate the Southern Xiongnu.
Fenyang is still more than 800 miles away from Zhang Zai's predetermined location, and it is estimated that the march will be accelerated tomorrow and the predetermined place will be able to be reached before dark.
At this time, Xue Rengui had already crossed the border of Wuyuan, Chen Bing was three hundred miles away from Meiji, and Zhang Liao had also crossed the Yellow River, ready to launch a surprise attack on the Southern Xiongnu royal court at any time.
At dawn the next day, Zhang Zai marched rapidly, and finally arrived at the grassland a hundred miles away from Meiji and set up camp before dark.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Zai led the army all the way without encountering any obstacles, and it seems that all the nearby Southern Xiongnu tribes migrated and left.
This is also in Zhang Zai's arms, whether it is leaving or defending the royal court, it has given Zhang Zai an excellent opportunity, a chance to catch them all, as for those scattered tribes, as long as they obey his arrangement, Zhang Zai will not be wiped out.
While Zhang Zai and the others were still on the march, Xue Rengui had already led a thousand people and began to launch a tentative attack.
When the nobles in the royal court saw that the Han army was attacking, they could only stop arguing, gather their forces, and engage Xue Rengui.
Outside the royal court, the two sides lined up in their own formations, the Huns were all cavalry, and Xue Rengui was the majority of infantry, Xue Rengui came to the front of the formation single-handedly: "The leader of the Southern Huns listened, I am under the command of the herd of the state, Xue Li in Hedong, you and others received the emperor's favor, but rebelled for no reason, and now I am specially ordered to come to conquest, you and others had better surrender as soon as possible, so as not to meet the evil sword soldiers." ”
After listening to Xue Rengui's words, the army on the opposite side directly rushed out of a horse, looking at its dress, at least a thousand generals.
Xue Rengui wanted to deal with this kind of person, so he grabbed it, glanced at the person who came with disdain, and directly took the halberd in his hand and cut off his head.
Later, several generals rushed out, all of whom were beheaded by Xue Rengui.
The morale of the Han army was greatly boosted, and they shouted: "Mighty! Mighty! ”
Seeing that no one was fighting, Xue Rengui waved the halberd in his hand, and the soldiers behind him shouted and rushed towards the enemy formation, and Xue Rengui took the lead and went straight to the leader of the other party.
I don't know if it's the favor of God, the Southern Xiongnu are unlucky, and the breakthrough gate chosen by Xue Rengui is the tribe that guarded the front camp when he led the army in Jinyang to attack at night two years ago.
Two years ago, Xue Rengui was dressed in white, in the Hun camp, no one was his enemy, led the army to kill, and was even more invincible, until the end, a white dress was completely stained red with blood, and his appearance of Shura was also deeply imprinted in the hearts of the Hun soldiers.
Although it was two years later, and it was at night, with the help of the firelight, even if the light was not very clear, many of the surviving soldiers still remembered Xue Rengui's appearance.
When they were in the distance just now, they hadn't recognized the person in front of them, who was the killing god that night, but when Xue Rengui rushed closer, many soldiers who had seen Xue Rengui's true face that night were so frightened that they threw away their weapons, turned around and fled back to the barracks, away from this killing god, even if the tribal leader sent a supervising team, they couldn't stop the fear in the hearts of this group of soldiers.
And their escape directly led to chaos in the whole army, and the soldiers in the rear did not know what was going on, so they were scattered by the soldiers in front.
The Huns are not stupid, since the soldiers in front are so afraid of coming, then he must be very powerful, think about it, the generals who came out of the battle just now are not enough for him to cut with a halberd, since this is the case, then they are definitely not his opponents, or it is important to save their lives, so they also fled.
Xue Rengui, who was galloping on his horse, was also very surprised, why did they mess up before he arrived in front of the opponent's formation?
However, Xue Rengui can't be allowed to think about it, he has already arrived in front of the Hun formation, the halberd in his hand or stabbing or chopping, every attack can take some lives, and the soldiers behind him, following Xue Rengui, also rushed to the Hun camp, followed Xue Rengui to kill the enemy.
Of course, it was not this one tribe that went to war, this time there were several tribes and more than 3,000 people, but their formation was first disrupted by their own people, and then Xue Rengui led people to break in, a good formation, it was destroyed cleanly, and it was basically impossible to recover the decline with the remaining soldiers, and they did not have the ability of a general, nor could they match Xue Rengui.
In the end, the Southern Huns left a place of corpses, returned to their camp, counted the losses, and folded more than 1,000 people.
Faced with such a strange situation, Xue Rengui had no choice but to withdraw his troops and camp.
In short, the tentative attack on the first day ended with Xue Rengui's complete victory, although it seemed a little difficult to accept.
In the next time, no matter how Xue Rengui sent people to provoke and scold, the Xiongnu just avoided the war.
Mijinai.
In the old king's tent, the leaders of the tribes gathered inside, and then talked about today's inexplicable rout, and everyone turned their eyes to the leader of this tribe.
The leader of the tribe also knew that the people would surely ask about it, so he recounted the information he had received from the fleeing soldiers.
Among these people, many of them had followed the Xu Bu Gu to invade Jinyang, and they all knew what happened that night, and they were all secretly glad when they heard that the enemy was the killing god.
Now that he was employing people upright, Lao Wang did not dispose of this tribe, he ordered the leader to go down to appease the soldiers, and at the same time transferred them to the rear of Meiji, and no longer engaged Xue Rengui.
Besides, Li Jing and Zhang Liao, they arrived a day later than Xue Rengui, and when they arrived at Meiji, it was already night, so the three of them adopted the method of encircling three and missing one according to the prior deployment, and surrounded Meiji and the camps of the surrounding tribes, leaving only a gap in the west, and then waiting for Zhang Zai's arrival.
Meiji City is not big, the city wall is only more than four meters high, the length and width are only more than 500 meters, it is said to be a city, but it is better to say that it is a mansion, even if you add the camps of the surrounding tribes, with the existing strength of more than 50,000 troops of the three people, it is enough to drain the water of Meijiwei.
At noon on the second day, Zhang Zai finally led his army to Meiji, which also meant that the final decisive battle of the royal court was about to begin.
