At this time, it has passed the third watch, and when the horse brings the news, it is nearly the second watch, and if it is a daytime march, it is impossible to still march during the second watch.

Now, he waited for the Huns to enter his well-laid pocket.

20,000 men on the left and right sides have been arranged, and the other 20,000 people have circled around and continued to advance towards Xilin Gol. Since the Xiongnu army has launched a large-scale sneak attack, Xilin Gol must not have many enemy troops, and 20,000 people can occupy it in one fell swoop. If the Hun army here retreats, what awaits them will be the front and rear encirclement of the Han army.

There was a faint neighing of horses ahead.

Here it comes!

Wei Changfeng led his horse, hiding behind a protruding rock and looking forward, in the distance, a black shadow faintly appeared, and a large number of Hun soldiers approached.

Wei Changfeng could clearly feel the excitement of the Han soldiers behind him.

This time, General Wei was the first to anticipate the enemy.

On the battlefield, it is not about how clever the enemy is, but whether he knows the opponent's thoughts in advance, and once he guesses the opponent's ideas, no matter how clever the opponent is, it is useless.

The Hun army gradually entered the ambush circle of the Han army, because the Hun army also wanted to guard against exposure, so there was no noise in their ranks, and the men and horses were silently moving forward.

Wei Changfeng's eyebrows suddenly furrowed.

This is not right.

Looking at the number of enemy troops, it is only 20,000. Although the Xiongnu were defeated in a row and suffered heavy losses, no matter how much Xilin Gol was, there would not be only 20,000 people, if there were only 20,000, how could they send out a sneak attack? Even if the Han army is caught off guard, it will be difficult to succeed.

Wei Changfeng hesitated, but he heard the faint sound of shouting and killing in the distance.

He gasped.

That direction is obviously the direction of the troops sent by himself to sneak attack Xilin Gol!

He realized he had made a mistake.

The Huns marched separately! There is a batch in front, a batch in the back, and I don't know if there is a future or not.

This is not the level reached by the original Hun generals!

At this time, the Xiongnu front army heard the shouting and killing behind them, and immediately stopped, only to see several horsemen galloping out of the formation and running backwards.

Wei Changfeng knew that he couldn't wait any longer. In any case, the war can only be started, and if it is a little later, the entire Xiongnu front army will retreat, and this hard work will be in vain.

"Drumming!" He gave the order decisively.

The drums beat loudly.

On the left and right, the light and heavy cavalry of the Han army rushed towards the 20,000 Hun army with the cooperation of the charioteers.

40,000 people surrounded 20,000 people, and this time the number of cavalry of the Han army increased greatly, and there were charioteers to help, and even half of the people were carrying crossbows, there was no suspense in this battle.

The Xiongnu front army immediately fell into the terrible encirclement of the Han army, there was no way forward, there was no way to retreat, and batches of Xiongnu troops were put down by crossbow arrows.

In the rain of arrows, I saw that the formation of the Hun army was changing rapidly, 3,000 people on each side of the left and right front three sides attacked outward, and nearly 10,000 Hun cavalry rushed out to the rear. , Wei Changfeng couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart.

In such a situation, he can immediately think of a countermeasure, and the order is forbidden, and immediately form a breakthrough formation, this general is not ordinary, this army is not ordinary!

"Heavy cavalry attack and block the enemy's rear!" Wei Changfeng decisively ordered.

Tens of thousands of heavy cavalry rushed straight out of the city, crossbow arrows and war knives, and in a blink of an eye, blocked the escape path of the Hun army. On the left and right, the Hun army was rapidly compressed, and groups of Hun soldiers fell to the ground under the rain of arrows.

Wei Changfeng's eyes were firmly fixed on the battlefield.

What he saw was not only that the Han army had surrounded and was about to annihilate the Hun army, but he also saw that the Hun army was still fighting to the death in the face of such a bad situation!

"Plant the flag and order the Huns to surrender and persuade them to surrender!" Wei Changfeng ordered.

A large flag was planted on the top of the hill, and the word "surrendered" was written on the flag in Han and Xiongnu characters.

Under the flag, dozens of Huns surrendered to the torches and stood up, shining the flag extremely brightly. With a command, these people let go of their throats and shouted, as for the content, it was nothing more than "Put down your arms, gather here, and the hating general will spare you from death." ”

This is a method that has been designed before, but now, Wei Changfeng does not have much confidence in this method.

He originally thought that he could scare the Hun army into surrender with the prestige of the hating general, and even if he didn't surrender, the morale of the Hun army would be greatly damaged. But now, he's a little unsure.

Although the ratio of the number and combat power of the Han army to the Xiongnu army is now larger than originally expected, and it is much larger, but judging from the momentum of the Xiongnu army, it seems that it has not been affected much, and it seems that this group of Xiongnu army actually seems to be the attitude of Ning Zhan to the last one.

A herald hurriedly came to Wei Changfeng's side and said to Wei Changfeng: "General Bai Wei General, the Hun army is very likely to have a rear team, General Bai suggests that part of the manpower be withdrawn and prepare to fight against the Hun rear team!" ”

Wei Changfeng shook his head: "Tell General Bai that the whole army will attack and kill the enemy with all your might!" ”

The herald turned around and went back to report.

Wei Changfeng knew the meaning of Bai Qi.

Since there was still a rear army, the Han army must be prepared to prevent the rear of the Xiongnu army from attacking, resulting in the defeat of the Han army.

But Wei Changfeng had other plans.

He believed that the distance between the front and rear armies of the Xiongnu would not be too close. Because I just heard the shouting and killing sound from the front, it was far away, not to mention that the troops of the Han army attacking Xilin Gol went around in a big circle, and they were far away from the current position here, and still encountered the Xiongnu army, which showed that the Xiongnu rear army was not close. Since it was not close and the Xiongnu army was blocked by the troops attacking Xilin Gol, if the Han army attacked the Xiongnu front army with all its might, it was fully hopeful that it would defeat the Xiongnu front army before the Xiongnu rear army arrived, and then it would have a hard-fought battle with the Xiongnu rear army.

However, this is not a mistake in thinking, but two different ideas.

Bai Qi's idea was to draw out part of the main force to save the troops attacking Xilin Gol, so as not to trap or even defeat the Han army in front. But Wei Changfeng believes that this is tantamount to a melee battle, rather than this, it is better to take a risk, first quickly defeat the Xiongnu front army, and then the whole army to attack, if the speed is fast enough, although this battle failed to successfully encircle and attack the entire Xiongnu army as originally expected, but it can also be a big victory.

Naturally, Wei Changfeng's idea has an element of gambling, but war is a gamble at the cost of human life, and the difference is only that good generals gamble when it is favorable, and bad generals gamble when it is unfavorable.

Wei Changfeng believed that although his judgment of the Xiongnu was wrong, the Xiongnu also made a mistake: they underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Han army.

The current Han army is no longer the Han army of ten days ago, which the Hun army did not expect.

This is the killer strategy in Wei Changfeng's hands.

The surrendered Xiongnu soldiers shouted again.

In the darkness, a strange whistling sound popped up.

The whistling sound was by no means made by a man, it sounded like the sound of a sharp weapon breaking through the air, and it was not like any weapon, it was sharp and high, some like a child's whistle, but it was sharper and louder than the whistle.

With this sound, I saw a rain of arrows suddenly appear in the darkness, this rain of arrows flew straight to the surrendered flag, and it was clear under the firelight, the first arrow, thick and big, the arrow was actually tied to a small bamboo tube, and the sharp whistling sound was from this bamboo tube!

As soon as the Huns under the banner heard this sound, they were like seeing ghosts, and they screamed and fell down one after another. As soon as the firelight dimmed, there was a click, and the lowering flag was actually broken by the arrow!

The sound of snapping was endless, and countless arrows were nailed to the big flag, and the big flag fell to the ground with a bang.

Wei Changfeng was surprised, but someone came to report: "The seventh team of General Chang is dead!" ”

Wei Changfeng's head thudred.

The seventh team is responsible for blocking the breakthrough of the Huns, it is the new heavy cavalry, General Chang Li Lin, before the battle repeatedly took the initiative to ask for orders, saying that he would definitely intercept the retreat of the Hun army, Wei Changfeng saw that he was so belligerent, and his subordinates were new soldiers, so let him block, but he didn't expect to die!

"How!" He roared.

The herald asked a little unexpectedly, and stammered and replied: "There is a general Hu who is so powerful, the armor on his body is invulnerable, and General Li was ......."

Wei Changfeng interrupted the herald's words with a wave of his hand, and ordered: "General Ya is in charge of commanding!" ”

The herald turned and left.

Wei Changfeng ordered Bai Qi to take over his command position, and then rushed forward with a thousand elites.

If there is an invulnerable armor, the best magic weapon to deal with it is his own Tai'a sword, he must go to see which Hu general is this, so powerful, actually killed the Han army General Chang!

On the battlefield, the Han army has rushed the Hun army to pieces, the attacks on both sides have been close to together, the whole battlefield has formed an encirclement, but the 10,000 heavy cavalry responsible for blocking the Hun breakthrough force is under great pressure, a large number of Hun army and the Han army melee, the two sides are still not divided for a while.

Wei Changfeng led the troops to approach the seventh team, and another scream sounded, only to see a rain of arrows shoot out, dozens of Han heavy cavalry fell off their horses, and a small group of Huns broke through!

Wei Changfeng shouted, and he didn't have time to rush to the seventh team, and took a thousand people directly across the road, intending to intercept the Hun army that broke through this small group, and at the same time he also wanted to see who sent this terrible arrow?

Under the moonlight, I saw dozens of horsemen rushing towards him, the first one was holding a huge bow and carrying several extremely thick arrows, this person had a beard and a hideous face, but he was only about thirty years old.

Wei Changfeng waved his long sword and rushed head-on.

When the general saw Wei Changfeng rushing over, and saw that this person was actually dressed in the uniform of General Fenwei, he was overjoyed, shouted, put away the bow in his hand, and showed a thick and heavy machete, and cut it down with a knife against Wei Changfeng.

Wei Changfeng was secretly shocked in his heart, seeing that the general's knife was fast and ruthless, it was really a powerful character, but, what kind of knife could be used under the Tai'a sword? With a backhand of his sword, the knife was cut in two with a brush, and Tai'a Jian was merciless, and slashed straight at the general's body.

This general didn't expect the other party to have such a sword in his hand, so he leaned back sharply.
