Chapter 179: Blood-stained river crossing
It's almost dawn!
At this time, it was the darkest time before dawn, and everyone was immersed in dreams, only the sound of fighting echoed in the air from time to time. {First Reading}
More than 100 boats are moored at the riverside ferry, and soldiers patrol the pier.
However, it can be seen that these patrolling soldiers are listless one by one. The battle on the front line was unfavorable, so that the Hun soldiers near the river also lost their arrogance and domineering. Even the horses hung their heads and carried the patrolling soldiers around the camp.
The river breeze gusted, stirring the artemisia grass and swaying.
Liu Kan rode on the red rabbit horse, quietly looking at the Hun camp in the distance, his tiger eyes were half-squinted, as if he was thinking about something.
If this battle can be successful, it will take at least a hundred years for the Huns to recover.
"Marquis, the scout is back!"
Meng Ji rode his horse to Liu Kan's side and whispered in his ear. Meng Ji was wearing the Qin army's standard black leather armor and a hood on his head. The face is also blackened with black mud, and at first glance, it is really not easy for people to see the face clearly. Not only him, but the five hundred cavalry troops, including Liu Kan, are all dressed like this. In Liu Kan's words, this is easier to hide and more shocking.
What the effect is, it is not clear what the disease is.
However, the feeling of this mud on the face is indeed a little uncomfortable.
Liu Kan said: "How is the situation? ”
"At noon yesterday, the scouts disguised themselves as Huns and infiltrated the camp. Maudun was not here, he had crossed the river the day before, supposedly to join the troops of Khuyanti's son, Chinger...... The person who is stationed here now is Huyanti. ”
Huyanti?
Liu Kan's thick eyebrows frowned.
Maudun is not actually at the riverside ferry? This made Liu Kan feel a little lost. This attack on the river crossing, on the one hand, is to drag the Huns to cross the river, and try to catch turtles in the Huns' urn in the south of the river; On the other hand. Liu Kan also had the intention of killing Mao Dun. In his opinion, Maudun was the most threatening figure, and if Maudun was killed, the Huns would lose the possibility of revival.
However, Maudun was not there!
"Marquis. It's almost dawn......"
Guan Ying rode over and said in a deep voice: "As soon as it is dawn, if you want to attack again, it will be difficult...... You see, are we attacking? ”
Sortie?
Liu Kan nodded slightly.
Anyway, if you can't kill Maodu, then you will cut off the roots of the Huns. Without the tribe's Maoton, it is not easy to make a comeback. The weak eat the strong on the steppe, once the Huns fell. They will inevitably be attacked by other nomadic lands.
Thinking of this, Liu Kan raised the red flag.
"Attack!"
With his order, five hundred cavalry troops moved at the same time.
Liu Kan, Guan Ying and Meng Ji, each led a group of men and horses, and attacked at the same time in the left, middle and right directions, and the degree of the war horse running was not very fast at the beginning, but as the camp approached the river crossing, the degree was suddenly raised. Five hundred horses galloped at the same time. The momentum is staggering.
It was as if the thunder had torn apart the silence before dawn.
The Hun soldiers guarding the camp gate couldn't help but be stunned when they heard the sound of horses' hooves.
By the time he saw it clearly, Liu Kan had led the cavalry to the front of the camp.
The red flag rested on the saddle, the big yellow bow opened like a full moon, and a red-stemmed white feather arrow shot out, with the power of ten thousand thunderbolts, right in the chest of the guards at the gate of the camp. A terrible scream sounded, and the guard's body was actually picked up by the sharp arrow and flew backwards.
With a bang, the sharp arrow sank into the wooden fence.
The guard was nailed to the fence, and the birch was stained red with blood......
"Qin Manzi, it's Qin Manzi!"
The Huns also saw that the situation was not good, but at this time, Liu Kan's bow opened like a full moon, and the twenty red stems and white feathers he carried with him shot out like beads, shooting the guards at the gate of the camp in an instant. The red rabbit horse had already rushed into the camp and let out a long neigh.
The two babies were irrigated with illness, and they also led people into the camp.
From the blanket on the horse's back, black clay pots were taken out. Slammed it down on the tent. I only heard a series of chaotic sounds, and the clay pot fell to the ground and shattered. The black oil in the jar flowed out in an instant, and there was a pungent smell.
Five hundred cavalrymen, each with four clay pots in a coat on horseback.
The clay pot was filled with black oil.
When it's all smashed out. Meng Ji and others lit the fire. Cast on the ground.
When the black oil meets the fire, it burns all at once. The fire started very quickly. It's spreading very quickly. The unsuspecting Huns were startled by the sudden fire and immediately panicked. One by one, the armor slanted out of the tent, shouting loudly, but soon suffered an even more ferocious blow.
Liu Kan's feet were already in the stirrups, and the red rabbit Ma Xiyu hissed non-stop, and he was bitten with a body, and he kicked when he saw someone.
The red flag mopped the floor, bursting out with a flash of sparks......
"Qin Manzi dares to sneak attack, let go!"
A Hun commander urged his horse to rush towards Liu Kan. The red flag flipped suddenly, drawing a strange arc and slanting up. Liu Kan didn't answer, and the red rabbit horse suddenly mentioned it, and without waiting for the commander to make a move, he had already passed by him. A puddle of blood spurted out, and the commander screamed miserably, and was cut off by the red flag, and his body fell in a pool of blood.
"Old Fuping is here, and you won't die yet!"
After Liu Kan killed the thousand-commander, he roared like a huge thunderbolt.
Fuping Lao Zhen has a lot of fame among the Huns. Fuping fought several bloody battles, causing extremely heavy losses to the Huns.
Now hearing this loud roar, in the firelight, I saw Liu Kan's majestic body like an old man, which made many Huns fearful. More than a dozen Hun soldiers surrounded them, but they saw Liu Kan's knife speeding fast, and the wind swept past them, leaving only the remnants of the corpse in one place.
Here, Liu Kan is killing on a large scale, and infantile irrigation and illness are not far behind.
The two men each led a hundred and fifty men and shot around the camp. The Qin army that attacked this time was equipped with four pots of arrows, and its archery skills were also extremely skillful.
For a while, I saw a rain of arrows. As long as it was a Hun, he did not hesitate to shoot it.
Many of the Huns had not even figured out what was going on, and as soon as they came out of their tents, they were shot. The corpses fell in the flames, in pools of blood. The two of them even wielded halberds. Fiercely rushed towards the Hun soldiers.
On the battlefield, it is undoubtedly a ridiculous thought to have any mercy.
As long as the opponent has a weapon in his hand, regardless of men, women and children, he must not hesitate to kill.
The work of a stick of incense, the river ferry, the fire soars to the sky......
Huyanti was awakened from a deep sleep. After all, when you are older, you will inevitably feel tired when you have a lot of things to do during the day. Huyanti is now not only physically tired, but also haggard. Not to mention that her daughter was arrested. The Qin army is getting closer. The migration of tens of thousands of Xiongnu women and children to the other side of the river alone has already made him dizzy. Especially when Maudun is not here, everything big and small must be decided by Huyanti alone. After dealing with the affairs of the south coast, and going to check the defense of the north shore, Huyanti is really tired!
When he rushed out of the tent, he saw that the river crossing had become a sea of fire.
The weeping of women and children, the wailing of soldiers. The war horse neighed...... Mixed together, it sounds incredibly harsh. Standing at the door of the tent, it took a long time for the tiger to come to his senses, and he was suddenly furious, and shouted: "Malai, lead the horse for me!" ”
Qin Manzi deceived people too much!
We have been defeated, and we are even about to withdraw from Henan, and you still don't want to let go, don't you want to kill them all?
The soldiers brought the horses over. Huyanti turned on his horse and struck with a spear.
Facing two Qin soldiers, the spear shook in his hand, Hu Yan roared, rushed over and twisted the spear and stabbed in distraction. It has to be said that the Huns are indeed a people who grew up on horseback. In the case of no stirrups, and it is also a flat saddle, it can perform a stabbing move, which is by no means possible for ordinary people to complete. Even the Qin army, which was skilled in archery and horses, could not be compared. The two Qin soldiers screamed miserably, and were picked up by Huyanti and overturned under the horse. For a time, the morale of the Huns rebounded slightly, and they followed Huyanti and laid siege to the Qin army.
Gradually, it became a little difficult to get sick and irrigate the baby!
There were fewer and fewer people around them, and the Huns began a frantic counterattack.
Huyanti was amazed in the crowd. and he who is far away shall be slain with a bow and arrow. Those who are close will dance their spears in response. Although the Qin army was brave, no one could resist Hu Yanti. Feeding the baby and being sick though he saw Huyanti. But because there were too many Huns around him, he couldn't get close to the past.
I could only watch my subordinates being picked and killed by Hu Yanti, but they were helpless.
It was already dawn, and the fire was getting wilder......
From the moment of the raid, more than an hour has passed in the blink of an eye. The raid turned into a bloody battle, and the number of Qin troops became smaller and smaller.
"Fire, it's on fire!"
Suddenly, there was a loud cry of panic from the Huns.
After Hu Yanti provoked and killed a cavalryman of the Qin army, he roared angrily: "Shout and shout, what's so strange about being on fire?" ”
Yes, what's so strange about being on fire? This fire has been burning for more than an hour since dawn, and what is the use of shouting now?
"King, it's the dock, the dock is on fire!"
Hu Yanti was shocked when he heard this, and turned his head to look in the direction of the dock. I saw that the pier was in flames, and most of the ferries on the ferry were submerged in the sea of fire. It's not good, it's a trick! Hu Yanti immediately understood that these Qin troops in front of him were just a disguise.
Once the ferry was burned, the tens of thousands of Huns on the south bank of the river, especially the women and children who had not yet had time to cross the river, would be completely finished!
"Fight the fire with me!"
Regardless of the baby irrigation and illness, Huyanti turned around and left, rushing towards the dock.
In the distance, I heard the crying on the dock, and the shouts of killing shook the sky...... Hu Yanti was so anxious that he galloped away.
But he didn't want to, a fiery red war horse suddenly came out of the chaos.
The general who is going to be there is Liu Kan. The black mud on his face had dried up and cracked, revealing strange and terrifying cracks, which were particularly hideous in the firelight. The black leather armor turned dark red, like a terrible ghost coming out of hell. Huyanti was startled, and Le Ma was about to speak, but the red rabbit horse was as fast as lightning, and before Huyanti could speak, he rushed in front of him......
"Fuping Lao, take the head!"
Liu Kan roared, the red flag was raised, and there was a sound of wind, and he slashed towards Hu Yanti.
The red flag was heavy, as fast as lightning. Hu Yanti was so frightened that he raised his spear to block, but Liu Kan's degree was faster, and Chitu Ma's degree was faster. The flag goes with the people, and the people borrow the horsepower. The moment the two horses staggered, Hu Yanti only felt a cold wind passing through his neck.
What a quick trick...... This person is the old man Fuping?
As soon as the thought arose in his mind, Huyanti was already in a different place. Blood gushed out from the cavity, and along Hu Yanti's body, it instantly stained the war horse red. And he ** war horse, but he didn't know what was going on, and he was still galloping forward.
The head fell to the ground and rolled several times.
In an instant, time seemed to freeze suddenly, and all the Huns watched the war horses carrying the headless corpses away, and their minds were blank.
"King Zuogu is dead...... King Zuogu was killed by Fuping Lao! ”
The Huns who reacted screamed bitterly, and the Huns at the river crossing suddenly lost their morale.
Even the king of Zuogu Li is dead, so what else is there to fight? The ferry was burned, and the way out was gone; Now the collar is also dead......
Run!
The Huns no longer had the heart to fight, and scattered and fled.
Liu Kan led the only remaining cavalry of more than 200 cavalry and took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing.
I couldn't chase for miles, but I heard a long and majestic horn sound in the sky. On the horizon, dust is flying, and smoke is billowing out.
The Black Dragon Banner was faintly visible, and thousands of old Qin cavalry soldiers appeared at the Linhe Ferry.
The moment he saw the Black Dragon Banner, Liu Kan's heart suddenly became empty. The Black Dragon Banner, which has been long-awaited for a long time, has finally appeared!
