Chapter 32: The Horses Break the Enemy
Eight thousand Hun cavalry galloped on the grassland, and a scout came in front of him on horseback in a hurry: "Patriarch Qiyu, the commander of the thousand commanders has an order." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThe war is tight, so you can rush to the aid of the army".
"The war is tight? Pass the order down and go full speed". The patriarch of the small Xiongnu tribe did not dare to slack off, and immediately gave an order.
The Hun cavalry suddenly increased speed, and the generals around the patriarch began to discuss: "How can the war be tight?"
"Didn't the commander say that there were only three small tribes?".
"Even if the three small tribes are united, their strength is only 24,000, how can they defeat a thousand elders with an army of 60,000."
"I feel that this matter is a little strange, could it be that the elder Qianfu is testing the loyalty of our tribe."
The voices of discussion reached the ears of the patriarch: "True or false, it's always good for us to rush over as soon as possible at this time."
"The patriarch's words are right, as long as we do what the commander commands, it's always right."
"Three small tribes suddenly united against the Commander's rule over this pasture, and I haven't heard of anything like it in at least fifty years."
The patriarch waved his whip, and the horse's hooves galloped a little faster, and he was about to continue to give the order to urge the hurried, when he suddenly saw a horse galloping in front of him.
"Patriarch Qiyu, I found traces of the enemy in front, and it seems that there are thousands of people."
The patriarch was stunned for a moment, obviously confused by the sudden appearance of the enemy here, and quickly stopped as soon as he pulled the reins of the war horse. Seeing this, the surrounding generals also stopped.
The eight thousand Hun cavalry also stopped, and the patriarch seemed to have come to his senses, looking directly at the horse: "Enemy? Where are the enemy forces? and how many people are there".
"Dressed in red clothes and red armor, and carrying a red banner that the villain had never seen before, the number of people watching them was about 4,000." Tanma recalled the Han soldiers he had just seen, and hurriedly reported to the patriarch 1510.
Four thousand? The patriarch pondered, and then shouted to the surroundings: "Pretend to pass the order to Xuanxu, you will lead 5,000 cavalry to kill the patriarch."
"Yes". The generals received the order one after another, and then ran around. A cavalry of 5,000 men was divided and rushed straight ahead.
Seeing the five thousand cavalry rushing in, a guard saluted Sun Buji: "Commander how we should meet the enemy."
"Breaking the trick with strength, this trip is to lure the enemy, how to lure if you don't pounce." As soon as Sun Buer's words fell, the 3,000 Han cavalry rushed towards the oncoming 5,000 Hun cavalry like a red torrent.
The Hun cavalry and the Han army, like two torrents, collided fiercely on the grassland. Immediately after that, the sound of swords and soldiers intersecting was endless, and at this time, a Hun cavalry ran quickly from the army.
"There is already a battle in front of the Qiyu Patriarch, and now the war is in the midst of anxiety."
The patriarch's hand held the reins tightly, and his heart kept weighing and thinking, as if he had made a decision for a long time. He drew the bronze sword at his waist and pointed forward fiercely: "Pass the order and kill it with the patriarch."
"Yes". The three thousand Hun cavalry suddenly received the order and followed the patriarch to pounce directly in front.
The two armies were fighting, and suddenly heard the sound of dense horse hooves coming from behind the Hun cavalry, and Sun Buer knew that the fire was coming, so he immediately beckoned. Some soldiers hurriedly rushed to the Quartet to convey the order, and then the Han army pretended to be invincible and turned around and fled.
The Hun cavalry was killing the rise, and suddenly saw the Han army fleeing. Seeing that the reinforcements arrived there and were willing to give up, he hurriedly urged the war horses to keep chasing.
"Patriarch, those cowards are running away."
"They ran away just after warming up, which is really unlucky."
"The people in front of the patriarch have already been killed, but we haven't started yet?"
"Please give the patriarch an order, let me wait and chase after me, and have a good time."
The surrounding soldiers looked at the five thousand cavalry in front of them, chasing and killing the enemy in a majestic manner, and their hearts were hot and hurriedly asked the patriarch for his life.
The patriarch heard their pleas and kept an eye on them. There was nothing unusual when he looked ahead, and then with a wave of his horsewhip, he also chased after three thousand cavalry.
The two armies chased on the grassland, Sun Buer silently calculated the distance in his heart, and then the Han army accelerated the pace again.
A scout horse swam quickly, gradually distanced himself from the army, and quickly ran in one direction.
"Report ...... Qi Qi city lord, the Hun cavalry is still eight miles away from the ambush place."
"Report ...... Qi Qi City Lord, the Hun cavalry is still seven miles away from the ambush place."
"Report ...... Qi Qi City Lord, the Hun cavalry is still six miles away from the ambush place."
"Report ...... Qi Qi city lord, the Hun cavalry is still five miles away from the ambush place."
Listening to a series of news, Zhao Wuming was wearing armor, holding the reins and leading the army to stop and wait. I weigh it in my heart and feel that the time has come. Then he looked at Zhang Liang on the side, and Zhang Liang raised a hand knowingly.
Not far ahead, a few cavalrymen seemed to have received orders and galloped away to the left and right.
Sun Buer ran to the ambush place, and the Han army scattered in an instant. The Hun cavalry was overjoyed when they saw this, thinking that the enemy had collapsed under the heavy pressure of their hearts, and then rushed over at a faster speed.
At this moment, the sound of neighing resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the deafening sound of horses' hooves rushed to the face. Tens of thousands of unmanned war horses, under the pursuit of the cavalry, rushed to the Hun cavalry from all directions with unstoppable momentum.
The Hun cavalry's heart trembled, and the patriarch was annoyed when he thought of the scene of rushing all the way just now and seeing groups of war horses grazing: "What a cunning enemy, he actually acted so tricky."
As soon as the words fell, Sun Buji turned around. The three thousand Han troops gathered in an instant, took out the bows on horseback, and drew arrows one after another and shot them into the air.
A rain of arrows rained down, and a Hun cavalryman fell in a pool of blood.
At this time, the Hun cavalry had woken up from the shocking scene just now, and they picked up the weapons in their hands to slash and kill the unmanned war horses, trying to rush out of a bloody road.
After a few rounds of arrow rain, there were fewer and fewer horses. Seeing the Hun cavalry, they were about to rush out. Sun Buer secretly made a decision, and directly rushed over with three thousand Han cavalry from the place with the least number of horses.
A Hun cavalryman has long been holding back the anger in his heart. At this time, when he saw the Han army brought by Sun Buer rushing towards him, he naturally couldn't help but say that he greeted him. Suddenly, the sound of swords and soldiers intersecting resounded through the four fields again.
Originally, Sun Buer's 3,000 Han army was added with a thousand cavalry who drove the war horses. In a short period of time, it was inseparable from the killing of 8,000 Hun cavalry.
The patriarch of the small Xiongnu tribe, looking at the situation on the battlefield, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong. An ominous feeling came to mind, and then he waved his whip: "Retreat quickly."
The Hun cavalry was stunned for a while, thinking that there was an auditory hallucination. Seeing that the enemy army was about to be defeated, why did the patriarch withdraw his troops?
Just when he was stunned and overwhelmed, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves. Coming from all directions, countless Han cavalry.
The Hun cavalry had no time to react and fell in a pool of blood.
