Chapter 223: Foreign War and Internal Strife

After walking for a few miles, only the sound of horses' hooves was heard, and on the left and right, there was a Hun team of 10,000 people!

Wei Changfeng's forehead was sweaty.

The Han army wiped out 20,000 people, and now there are 20,000 people, but the shouting and killing in the distance is still extremely intense, how many people did the Huns dispatch?

In front, a horse galloped closer, and when it was closer, it was actually a small capital of the Han army, and the small capital was stuck with two or three arrows on his body, and he was staggering close on the horse.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't stop him!" Wei Changfeng hurriedly yelled.

The little commander rode his horse until he was in front of the guard chief and shouted, "Our army has met the enemy!" There are 30,000 enemy troops, please General Wei ......" Before he finished speaking, he had already fallen to the ground with a grunt, and although his eyes were wide open, he was already out of breath.

Wei Changfeng is happy and sad.

The sad thing is that this little Dutong, this way I am afraid that I will come to Wei Changfeng with all my breath, and see that the arrow goes deep into the chest and abdomen, if it is not for him to have this breath, I am afraid that he would have died of exhaustion. The good news is this.

If it was in the past, the Han army of 20,000 against the Xiongnu 30,000 was indeed extremely dangerous, but now, the strength of the Han army has increased greatly, although it is still difficult to fight against 20,000 against 30,000, but at least it will not fail quickly.

Now, Wei Changfeng has already known the marching arrangements of the Xiongnu.

Obviously, Mao Dun did not fully trust the news brought by the Xiongnu messenger, although he raised a large army to attack the Han army, but divided the Xiongnu army into three armies, 20,000 in the front and rear, 30,000 in the middle route, and 70,000 in total. It seems that Mao Dun's plan is: if the news is true, 70,000 people can gather and launch an attack when they approach the Han army, and if the news is false, then the three teams will follow one after another, and accidents can also be prevented.

In fact, this method is very good, both offensive and defensive, but he didn't expect that the Han army would have such a big change in just ten days, and it has become a powerful cavalry that can confront the Xiongnu one-on-one, if there is no change, I am afraid that the main force of the Han army is still fighting against the 20,000 Xiongnu army, even if it succeeds, it will take a lot of time, and the 40,000 Han army in front is afraid that it has been defeated.

It was precisely because of this accident that Mao Dun had to send the rear team to block the main force of the Han army, because the front team was defeated too quickly, and if the main force of the Han army arrived at the front team of the Han army, the entire Xiongnu army would be defeated.

Wei Changfeng could even guess Mao Dun's thoughts.

If he was Maudun, his first choice was to send the 20,000 men in the rear to besiege the front army of the Han army, fight 20,000 people with 50,000 people, defeat and retreat, it was just a draw, the Han army eliminated the front team of the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu eliminated the front team of the Han army, and that's it. Moreover, the front team of the Xiongnu was 20,000 people, and the front team of the Han army was also 20,000 people, which was comparable in terms of the number of losses.

It's just that the unexpected strength of the Han army made it impossible to implement this plan, and Mao Dun had already realized this on the way back, but he refused to admit defeat and actually sent 20,000 rear troops to stop the Han army. As long as the Han army can be stopped, even if all the 20,000 people die, it will only be a loss of 40,000, plus the Xiongnu attack on the front team of the Han army, although the loss may be greater, but it will not be defeated.

Thinking of this, Wei Changfeng immediately looked up at the two Huns.

The two 10,000 people did not rush over, but kept approaching on the left and right sides of the Han army, leaving, and going in circles.

Wei Changfeng sneered.

It really made him expect.

Of course, he has Bai Qi to thank for this. If it weren't for Bai Qi asking him to listen to Maoton's story at such an urgent time, he really didn't know what Maoton would do.

Now, he knew it.

Since Mao Dun wanted to stop the Han army, but the Han army's attack power was extremely strong, and the 20,000 Hun troops were killed in a short time, and it was difficult to stop it for long if 20,000 people were sent to attack, so Mao Dun's idea was: Let these 20,000 people contain the Han army, as long as the Han army slows down or stops, it is a great achievement, if the Han army refuses to slow down or stop, and then forcibly block it.

If Wei Changfeng were replaced in Mao Dun's position, he would do the same, which is what the so-called heroes see.

However, Maudun's strategy was good, but it did not have a strong enforcer.

Most of the Xiongnu generals were reckless and impulsive, but it was difficult to carry out meticulous calculations. Obviously, there is a person similar to Wei Changfeng among the Huns, but there is no one close to Bai Qi, so although Mao Dun's thinking is good, it cannot be completed.

"General Bai," Wei Changfeng ordered, "you command 20,000 light cavalry to attack these two Huns 10,000 troops, and I will lead the Chinese army to save the front army." ”

Bai Qi agreed.

This is Wei Changfeng's countermeasure.

The 20,000 Han army against the 20,000 Xiongnu, even if the combat strength is slightly worse, will not be easily defeated, and the main force of the Han army will attack directly.

Mao Dun, you didn't make too many mistakes, there were only three mistakes: one, you still continued to underestimate the combat effectiveness of the Han army, two, I didn't expect that all of your subordinates were as capable as you, and third, you were too unwilling to admit defeat.

Yes, you are only wrong in three places, but in such a battle, one wrong place is fatal, let alone three?

The sound of horses' hooves was loud, and the 20,000 Han soldiers were divided into left and right, forcing towards the two Huns, and the 20,000 Han troops did not closely pursue the Huns, but marched back and forth along the main force of the Han army, so that the Huns would not succeed if they wanted to use the approaching method to intimidate the Han army, and if the Huns forcibly blocked it, the 20,000 Han troops just fought against the Huns.

The Han army continued to defeat the Hun army, as long as it was protected on the left and right sides of the main force, the Hun army that could be forced to attack had to be forced, and the Han army, even if it failed, could retreat to the Chinese army for support.

This is the reason why Wei Changfeng ordered Bai Qi to personally command these 20,000 Han troops.

Bai Qi can completely handle this situation, although he has no tricks, he is fully capable of grasping this obvious situation.

The 20,000 main forces of the Han army moved forward with all their might, and the 20,000 cavalry protected each other left and right. Soon after the advance, the Huns on the left and right sides realized that the situation was not good, the horn sounded, and the 20,000 Huns rushed forward with all their might.

Wei Changfeng ignored the crazy attack of the Hun army, this self-owned white rose up to resist, and now, his target is the front army of the Han army, which is a bigger battle!

In the shouts of killing, the main force of the Han army had broken away from the protective armies on both sides and moved forward as fast as possible. However, the Han army on both sides did not stay away from the main force of the Han army, but fought and retreated.

Because the Han army has a magic weapon that can exert great power in this situation: the repeater.

Of course, the Xiongnu also had a bow and crossbow, before the invention of the crossbow, and even before the crossbow was improved by Li Yajiang, the bow and crossbow of the Huns can also be called a "strong bow and a hard crossbow", but now, the crossbow arrows of the Han army are ten arrows, and they can be repeatedly attacked five times before they need to place the crossbow arrows again, and the speed is fast, powerful, and even the arrows are poisonous, fighting with bows and crossbows, the Huns have suffered a big loss.

Therefore, Bai Qi commanded the cavalry to always maintain a certain distance from the Xiongnu army, which was enough for the Han army's crossbow arrows to kill the Xiongnu army, but the Xiongnu army's bows and arrows were no longer powerful at this distance, and even if they hit the Han army, most of them were blocked by shields and armor.

Naturally, the Huns refused to suffer such a loss, but they had no choice.

The problem now is that they must block the Han army as much as possible, but once they get close, the crossbows will be fired intensively, and the god locomotive is also displayed left and right, the crossbows and flying spears on the god locomotive make the Huns unable to resist, if the Huns escape far away, the problem will naturally be solved, but their task is to block the Han army at all costs, and they can't escape, as a result, the 20,000 Hun cavalry can only know that they will suffer losses.

The Han army marched all the way, and the 20,000 Hun troops attacked all the way, and when the Han army could already see the battlefield ahead, the two Hun armies blocked the retreat.

They had to retreat, and under the counterattack of the Han army, they had already suffered more than half of the casualties, while the 20,000 Han troops under the command of Bai Qi suffered only about 2,000 casualties.

Even if they all rushed forward and fought hard, they would only be able to consume some of the Han army's crossbow arrows.

Behind the battlefield in front, in the Xiongnu military tent, Mao Dun was looking at two people.

These two people, one is the right sage king Yi Zhixian, and the other is the little sage king Laoshang.

Both men were very embarrassed, their bodies covered with dust, their shoes were torn, their eyes were red and swollen, and their lips were chapped, and they sat there looking extremely uneasy.

Maudun took a sip of water, sighed, and asked, "What else do you have to say?" ”

"Absolutely!" Yi Zhixian roared again, "If we are defeated, you will kill us, and now you are also defeated, what should you do?" ”

Mao Dun sighed again: "King Youxian, I have already said it three times, and then I will say the last time: you are defeated, you should be killed, I will kill you, I am defeated, and I have my own Daxian King and Dashan Yu punishment." Even if I should be killed, it does not prove that you should not be killed, but on the contrary, it proves that you should be killed, because everyone who fails in this way should be killed. ”

The old man also sighed, but he sighed in his heart. He said slowly: "King Zuoxian, we should be killed according to the law, I have nothing to say about this." It's just that there is a battle going on outside, are you not in a hurry to command the battle now, but are you in a hurry to kill us? Even if we should be killed, will we wait until the battle is over? ”

Mao Dun sneered in his heart.

Waiting for the battle to finish? Are you kidding.

The Huns were defeated, countless generals died or surrendered, and now the only ones who can command the army are the right sage king Yi Zhixian, the little sage king Lao Shang and himself, the left sage king, as for the great sage king Ji Hou Zha, that is a good gentleman, this seventy-year-old man is more often playing with his eagle, he can't even manage his own family now, where can he command the battle.

If you don't kill Yi Zhixian and Lao Shang, not only will these two people complain to Da Danyu Attila in the future, but Attila sees that these two people are there, and it is entirely possible to kill Mao Dun and leave these two people or one of them to command the battle, if he kills these two people, except for him Mao Dun, he can't find anyone else who can command the army in his eagerness, so if he kills Yi Zhixian and Lao Shang, he is saving himself, what else can he be anxious about if he is not in a hurry to kill these two people? Wait for the battle to be over? In case of a major defeat, if these two escaped, didn't he let go of the opportunity to survive?
