Chapter Ninety-Eight: Capturing the Large Donghu Tribe

The commander of the Donghu garrison saw that the general had been delayed in sending soldiers to report the news, and a sense of uncertainty gradually rose in his heart. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info happened to hear the sound of horses' hooves in front of him at this time, and immediately woke up and hurriedly ordered: "Pass the order, the whole army will withdraw to the tribe."

The generals of Zhongdonghu looked at the main general hesitantly, and did not understand why Hao Hao issued this military order.

"General, at this time, our army still has 5,000 soldiers and horses and has not returned, if our troops withdraw, won't they become outcasts."

"At this time, our army still has the strength to fight, and it is inevitable that it will be a little unreasonable to withdraw."

"Please also think twice about ...... general."

The commander of the Donghu garrison gradually frowned, and pointed forward with his hand: "You listen to the sound of horses' hooves in front, our army's 5,000 soldiers and horses have already been ambushed and killed by the Huns at this time. Otherwise, why would there be news until now?"

"Command". The generals of Donghu reacted instantly, and then the sound of gold sounded. The Donghu soldiers in the battle area ahead abandoned their opponents and ran to the back.

The Xiongnu servant army just happened to be in pursuit, but they heard the sound of their own gold.

A Xiongnu soldier hurriedly retreated and converged behind Han Xin.

The commander of the Donghu defenders didn't think much about it, looked at the retreating Donghu soldiers, and then galloped away in the direction of the horse's back.

Walking for five miles, there was a sudden earth-shattering shout of killing, and countless Hun soldiers poured in from all directions. Fan Hao took the lead with a phalanx of Hun cavalry to kill the Chinese army of the Donghu defenders.

The main general of the Donghu defenders was furious, and at this time he did not know how he had already fallen into the calculations of the enemy. Then he scolded the Donghu soldiers beside him: "Kill."

As soon as the words fell, the Donghu soldiers lifted the weapons in their hands and killed them in the direction where the Hun soldiers were coming, and the two armies immediately started a melee.

Time passed unconsciously, and the defense line of the Donghu soldiers gradually became exhausted, and it was about to be defeated. The sound of horses' hooves was heard in the rear, and a large number of Hun soldiers rushed over. The Donghu soldiers and horses were immediately completely defeated and fled in all directions.

Han Xin watched the scattered Donghu soldiers in the rear, and immediately sent dozens of thousand-strong phalanxes to chase and kill. An hour later, look at the corpses all over the ground. Han Xin slapped his horse heavily and took Fan Xu, Zhang Liang and the army behind him, and went to the large tribe station of Donghu to kill.

Blood stained the earth, and when the last Donghu soldier in the large Donghu tribe fell to the ground, the banner of the Xiongnu servant army was completely planted on the city wall. One soldier after another began to repair, and countless materials were quickly transported out of the tribe.

Han Xin and Zhang Liang walked to the city wall, looked down from above, and looked at the continuous flow of materials in the direction of Seoul, and sighed in their hearts: "After fighting for more than a month, I finally have some gains today."

"I don't know what kind of situation my Seoul will be like after these materials are given to the lord." Zhang Liang listened to Han Xin's emotion, and he also felt it.

At this time, Fan Hao walked over, and a deep voice sounded: "What else, it is estimated that when we return to the city, we should add a few colleagues."

"It's really exciting." After Zhang Liang finished speaking, he looked at Fan Xu, and a smile flashed at the corner of his mouth.

Han Xin looked at Fan Xu, as if he had thought of something, and then changed the topic: "How are things going?"

"Isn't my general still at ease? The river has been drained by our army, the battlefield has been cleaned, and the soldiers are counting the casualties. Just now, the last general also talked to the people sent by the prime minister to wait a few days to transport the Seoul flag for our army. After fighting secretly for so long, this time it is finally possible, and there is a big battle in the bright light." After Fan Xu finished speaking, a sense of pride spread, since he came to Seoul, he was either pretending to be a Hun or pretending to be Donghu, and he had already had a belly of anger in his heart. It's rare to show the flag, and come here in a dignified manner.

Zhang Liang couldn't help but let out a chuckle: "General Fan, don't light the flag too quickly, so as not to miss a big event."

"Don't worry, the military advisor has endured it for so long, and it's no problem to endure it for a few more days." Fan Xu patted his chest after speaking.

The sound of footsteps came, and a general saluted the three people: "General Qiqi, the losses in this battle have now been counted." Our army suffered more than 70,000 casualties, and only 230,000 soldiers and horses could fight."

"After fighting for more than a month, plus today's decisive battle, I don't want to lose so many soldiers and horses." Han Xin sighed, when he came, there were 300,000 troops, but he didn't expect that after this battle, there were only 230,000 soldiers and horses.

Hearing the loss, a trace of pressure quietly spread, and Fan Xu's arrogance just now also completely dissipated: "There are more than 500,000 soldiers and horses in Donghu, and more than 400,000 soldiers and horses in Huns, how will our army deal with it."

"Once the Donghu army learns that our army has cut off their food routes, they will return to the army with all their might. When the time comes, in the face of more than 500,000 Donghu soldiers and horses, even if the Xiongnu pursue from behind, our army is afraid that it will suffer heavy losses." Zhang Liang showed a hint of worry.

How could Han Xin not know this, so he continued Zhang Liang's words and said: "Once Donghu is exterminated, the Huns will find out that our army is not their clansmen, and then it will be a real vicious battle."

"Instead of being passive, can our army do something now while the Donghu army has not yet returned?" Fan Xu looked at Han Xin and Zhang Liang with some unwillingness.

Zhang Liang spread his hands at Fan Xu: "The difference in strength between the two sides is huge, even if there are thousands of clever plans, it will not help."

"This is not your previous style, anyway, we have to do something." Fan Xu continued to ask, thinking that there would not be much loss in this battle. When the time comes, the banner will be displayed in a dignified manner, but the thought of being so aggrieved.

Han Xin pondered and then looked at Fan Xu: "There is only one stupid way, try your best to repair the defensive position, and at the same time be ready for battle."

"It's the same as if you didn't say it." Fan Xu looked at the two of them angrily and shook his head helplessly.

Zhang Liang patted Fan Xu's shoulder with his hand: "The task of our army has actually been completed, and all that remains is to buy time for Zhou Bo's subordinates and the lord."

"It can only be so". There is no other way to do it now, Fan Hao immediately sighed.

Han Xin's gaze turned to the soldiers: "In the servant army, several Hun commanders are called."

"No". The soldier bowed and turned to leave.

After a while, several Xiongnu servant army commanders came over and saluted Han Xin and the three of them: "See the general."

"You once told the general that he has a certain relationship in the clan, and he can pass the news to the Xiongnu Right Xian King." Han Xin reconfirmed the news that he had gotten.

Several commanders glanced at each other and nodded: "That's true, please ask the general to order."

"I will ask you to inform the Right Sage King of the interception of the Donghu Grain Road through your respective relationships immediately after the retreat of the Donghu army." Han Xin commanded to several commanders.

Several commanders hesitated: "What kind of reason should we tell you?"

"Let's just say that our 300,000 soldiers and horses are ordered to cut off the grain and grass in Donghu. Please send troops as soon as possible and attack the Donghu army in front and rear." Han Xin informed them of the excuse that he had already thought of. As for the Xiongnu Right Xianwang believe it or not, they are the Huns of the western steppe. In fact, it doesn't matter, as long as he knows that the Donghu grain road has been intercepted.

Several commanders saluted respectfully again: "No."

As soon as the words fell, several commanders turned to leave. An eagle also flew into the air in an inconspicuous place.
