After Jiang An finished speaking, he rode back to the chariot camp on a fast horse. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Several people dispersed, and Gubei also gave an order to the Yunlei battalion to wait until the night to attack the enemy camp, there was no specific task, that is, when the chaos started, it was good to put Yunlei in a place where the Huns gathered more.
Everyone had eaten dry rations before it was dark, and after packing up, the chariot battalion quietly headed east, followed closely by the chariot battalion and the saber battalion, heading east.
The stars in the sky began to twinkle, and the coolness on the grassland penetrated everyone's body, and Gu Bei's body shivered, and he seemed to be more awake.
He calculated that the Che Zhan Camp had been gone for an hour, and even if it was a big bend, it should be attacked.
His eyes were fixed on the north side behind the hillside, and the sky was full of stars, and shooting stars streaked across the sky from the northwest corner. Gubei walked around anxiously, and then looked at the camp of the Huns, which was already densely packed with tents, and outside were groups of patrolmen, holding torches, constantly looking at the side of the hill. In a few corners of the camp, several very tall watchtowers were being erected, and many soldiers gathered there, surrounded by torches.
Maybe it's summer coming, the frog's voice is particularly loud, "quack" is annoying, and it comes and goes, refusing to stop, Gu Bei secretly scolded Jiang An in his heart for not being reliable, why did it take so long?
In the northern sky, another meteor crossed the sky, and Gu Bei was anxious, and was about to turn around and send someone to investigate the situation. I saw the direction of the meteor just now, a red dot rose into the sky, and crossed a long line of fire to the south sky, followed by the second line of fire, the third line of fire, a total of five red lines of fire, successively crossed the sky from north to south, and flew not very high, pulling a long whistle, and went straight to the northern border of the Huns' camp.
The Huns also saw the strange things in the sky in the north, and they came out to see the excitement, and Gubei saw a lot of people running out of the tent, and his eyes looked to the north.
Gubei immediately issued an order, all the brothers of the Yunlei battalion, all with the cloud thunder, rushed to the camp of the Huns, where there are many people, they rushed to where there are many people, where to throw cloud thunder, set fire, especially tents, the more burned, the better, there is only one goal, chaos in the camp.
As soon as the soldiers of the Yunlei battalion walked forward, they suddenly heard the explosion in the Hun camp in the north, some fell to the ground and exploded, two exploded directly above the head of the Hun camp, and the other seemed to rush into the herd of horses, and the horses were also bombing the camp, scurrying around. The Yunlei battalion reacted to the north, and even quickened its speed, bypassing the hillside and rushing westward.
After a while, there seemed to be someone among the Huns who was putting order in order, and the panic just now was stopped not long after, and everyone was ready to look north.
At this time, to the north of the Xiongnu, the chariot was in the middle, the saber battalion was on the left, and the bow battalion was on the right. The chariot moved slowly, and the whole team slowly advanced south.
Jiang An gave another order, only to hear the front five chariots, the sound of Ga Zhi, the sound for a while, someone started a fire, ignited the flying thunder, the flying thunder with a long whistle, flew to the south of the sky, crossed five fiery red arcs, and flew into the camp of the Huns again, the Huns were in a mess again, people shouted horses, and scurried around.
At this moment, in the east and south of the Hun camp, explosions sounded repeatedly, the fire flashed, the east and west, especially the tents, and the fire was everywhere, the Huns began to panic, not knowing what was happening, people began to run, and the horses began to run in panic.
The flying thunder in the north also exploded, on the ground, in the air, above the heads of the Huns, and order was no longer organized. No one knew where to run, where it was safe, and now there were no explosions in the west and south, and the Huns were swarming to the west and south, some on horseback, some on horseback, some on horseback, some in full armor, some naked, no formation, no officers, only a chaotic scene.
Horses squeezing horses, people next to people, the fire is behind them, although now there are no Pingzhou military horses to the Huns' camp, the Huns don't know how many people came from the north, the fire in the night, reflecting everyone's fear, the flow of people is like a river more and more, suddenly to the south of the flow of people, a loud explosion sounded, the fire was born at the feet, black smoke was filled, there were already a few people around the ground on the spot, no injured people while rejoicing, while desperately running forward, someone fell, behind the horses' hooves, The flow of people behind will definitely not feel sorry for the person who fell to the ground, but there is an extra stone under the ground, step on it, step on it.
The convoy has already reached the camp of the Huns, the front car has been replaced with a real chariot, and the car that fired the crossbow just now is now behind the chariot, but it has not stopped firing. Now there is no unified command, it is all free shooting on the chariots, and there are many people there, so they will shoot there.
The camp of the Huns, there was fire everywhere, there were Hun soldiers scurrying around, the archers looked at the target so close one by one, they smiled with joy, the bow in their hands no longer stopped, and the sound of swishing and breaking the sky sounded again and again, and the Huns knew that the real attack force had arrived.
The saber team took the lead, the archers ran as they shot, and both teams ran in front of the chariot team. The saber team went south, and after entering the Hun camp, it began to turn and go east, the team drew a large arc of twists and turns, the archers team was to the west, and the chariot team in the middle kept moving forward, impartial, and attacked straight to the south.
Under the firelight, I saw that the saber team had become two horizontal columns from a column just now, and the direction was just staggered, from the north of the Hun camp, the east half seemed to be contracted by them, the war horses galloped wildly, and the sabers were wielded. The saber team has never had so many enemies, never seen such a panicked enemy without counterattack, they two horizontal columns, repeatedly crossed in front, at first the first team walked in front, after a while, the second team went ahead, like saws sawing wood, advancing towards the deep camp of the Huns.
Looking at the archers in the west, they just lined up in a horizontal line, like scavengers, shooting down the enemies in front of them one by one, they didn't advance quickly, there were too many enemies, too many targets, so they had to attack slowly forward.
The chariot convoy has already caught up, just holding the middle, they are a group of three vehicles, three groups of one team, one team has a total of 9 vehicles, and the chariot battalion has a total of three teams, the same eastern, middle and western teams.
In the chariot, the spear kept stabbing outward, and the bow and arrow did not stop, at this time the chariot was still powerful, only attacking but not defending, like a heavy hammer hitting tofu, all at once the Huns' blockade was smashed to pieces.
The chariot is finally the five crossbow vehicles just now, they now send a crossbow every half a mile, not in a hurry or slow, as if they come to play, but the power is still huge, every time, wherever the thunder goes, panic, fear, fire, all like a hammer hit the heart of the Huns.
