Chapter 587: Waiting for the enemy to enter the pit

"The Huns must fight to the death! What I hope is that even if it is a Xiongnu woman, there must be no one left, and the need for soldiers can only be patient first, and after the Xiongnu are destroyed, I will gradually establish a stronghold in the west, so that some soldiers can settle down first! Yuan Yao said. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Yes, Your Majesty!!" Yang Wu knew Yuan Yao's intentions, it was impossible for the Wusun people and Huns in Chigu City to live anymore, even if they escaped the bombardment, they would be slaughtered after the city was broken.

"Report! Scout Commander Liu Shun asks to see!! At this time, the sound of the guards outside the tent was heard.

"Spread it in!" Yuan Yaodeng was overjoyed and said urgently.

In the besieged Chigu City, he had never seen Qubei show up, so Yuan Yao concluded that Qubei had led the main force of the Xiongnu to hide elsewhere.

"Meet Your Majesty!!"

Soon, Liu Shun walked in in with a dusty manner, bowed his head, and immediately said loudly with joy: "Your Majesty, the minister has discovered the hiding place of the enemy's main force!" ”

"Great!! Where are they hiding? Is there any news that the Huns are only going to be humiliated?? Yuan Yao asked with a smile.

"Back to Your Majesty, the enemy is hiding in Guishan City in Dawan Kingdom! Qubei and King Wusun are also in Guishan City! Liu Shun said.

"Huh?" Yuan Yao's brows furrowed when he heard this.

Guishan City is the capital of Dawan Kingdom, so this means that Dawan Kingdom has been broken by the Huns!!

Hundreds of miles west of Akiti Castle is Guishan Castle, but these hundreds of miles are separated by countless heavy snow-capped mountains! Even if the scouts who are accustomed to walking the mountain road, it is very difficult to pass, and it is almost impossible for the army to pass directly, and the only way is to go around to the north, until it reaches the north of the Wusun country, so that it can ride a horse to the west, first enter the Kangju country, and then go south, in order to reach the Dawan country.

"I know, Liu Shun, you go down and rest first, and then focus your investigation on the desert, before continuing to attack to the west, I want to make sure that there are no more enemies in the entire Western Regions!" Yuan Yaodao.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister retires!!" Liu Shun bowed and retreated, until he retreated to the tent door, then turned around and withdrew.

……

On the first night when Yuan Yao planted gunpowder at the outlet of the Zhenhe River, there was no movement, except for the wind and sand blowing from the desert, and the attack on Chigu City was also based on training soldiers in actual combat, although nearly 100 soldiers were killed and wounded, but it also allowed the soldiers to learn more practical combat experience.

When we get out of the Western Regions, we can avoid greater casualties by having this kind of siege warfare.

The next day, during the day, the city was still attacked, or the army was ordered to carry out various cooperations, and the number of casualties had been reduced by half, only dozens, and at night, Yuan Yao ordered the whole army to rest, trying to lead the enemy to ambush the army, but until dawn on the third day, there was no sign of ambush.

However, several scouts sent by Liu Shun to the direction of Yuzhen River were as if they had disappeared and never returned.

These scouts are going south along the Yuzhen River, and they will never get lost, they must have met the enemy and have been killed, but it is strange that if the enemy cavalry is really hiding in the desert, these days have passed, even if the cavalry can bring enough dry food, the grain and grass of the war horses will never support it for so long! There must be something wrong with this!!

Just when Yuan Yao and the generals were suspicious, Yuan Yao received the news of Zhou Cang, who was stationed in Xicheng.

To everyone's surprise, the scouts sent turned out to be detouring westward, passing through Shache, and the scouts sent by Zhou Cang brought a total of two news, one bad news and one good news.

The bad news is that Zhou Cang also sent scouts to contact Yuan Yao, but only entered the desert and disappeared.

The good news is that after communicating with the locals, Zhiyue came to an astonishing conclusion that there was a camel cavalry of at least 3,000 people hidden in the desert near the Zhenhe River!

These two pieces of news immediately surprised Yuan Yao's generals.

If the enemy really has 3,000 camel cavalry, then unless Yuan Yao can also organize 3,000 camel cavalry, he will send 10,000 cavalry into the desert, and he will also be defeated by the camel cavalry.

Ordinary war horses can't meet camels, and when they encounter camel war horses, they will panic!

If you meet a large number of enemy camel cavalry on the narrow bank of the river, you will definitely be defeated, and the desert area far away from the river bank is the best terrain for the camel cavalry.

If a large number of infantry is sent, not only will it be impossible to catch up with the camel cavalry, but it will also be extremely difficult to transport grain and grass along the way.

Guo Jia said: "That's just right! Although our march was hindered, in the long run, the enemy did us a great favor!! Our army is just going to make a plan, take this opportunity to stay here for a little longer, so that the Huns can take it lightly, so that the Huns will definitely start to attack the Dayue clan with all their might, and help us accelerate the completion of the plan to unify the West! ”

Yuan Yao nodded in approval, and ordered the crowd to attack as usual and not to leak the news.

This is also a plan that has been set a long time ago, if Yuan Yao's army attacks too tightly, the Xiongnu will definitely detect Yuan Yao's intentions, not only will not attack to the west, but will unite Western countries to fight against Yuan Yao's Dazhong Empire.

Now as long as the enemy is given an illusion, it is impossible for the Dazhong Empire to cross the vast snow-capped mountains and attack westward, and the western countries will be in chaos even if they are invaded by the Huns!!

On the third day, there was still no movement.

On the fourth day, until the fifth day, at night, Yuan Yao's army was burying a pot to make rice, when a foul smell suddenly wafted near the outlet of the Zhenhe River.

Pound, who was leading the troops stationed nearby, was shocked when he heard this, and urgently ordered his subordinates to inform the artillery guarding the exit of the real river.

The enemy camel cavalry is coming!!

The artillery was subordinate to Xiong Wei Dai Ling, Dai Ling did not dare to be careless, ordered Xiong Wei to be in good standby, and ordered the artillery to prepare secretly.

When they were ready, they saw an overwhelming gust of wind and sand blowing, and then roared in the wind and sand and rushed out thousands of camel cavalry.

As these thousands of enemy camel cavalry rushed out, I saw that the war horses in Yuan Yao's camp were all neighing and scurrying, unable to be controlled.

"Enemy Attack !!"

Yuan Yaojun panicked, the infantry retreated, and the cavalry couldn't control the horses, roaring again and again, and it seemed that they had fallen into chaos!

"Hahahaha!! Yuan Yaozhong's plan is also!! Kill!! ”

The enemy general was so excited that he raised his sword and roared, and led several camel cavalry to rush in, not knowing that this was Yuan Yao's plan, and he didn't know that under the sand in a radius of hundreds of feet, tens of thousands of gunpowder bags had been buried!!

I didn't know that nearby, Yuan Yaojun, who seemed to be in a panic, was actually secretly laying an encirclement network under the cover of the camp tent.

"Ignition!" Dai Ling, who was hiding in the shadows, saw the enemy cavalry rushing to the predetermined place, waved the flag fiercely, and shouted in a low voice.

After all, it has to rely on a long lead to detonate, so you have to ignite the lead in advance.

After Dai Ling gave an order, the firelight flickered, and countless leads flashed with sparks, burning forward rapidly, and castration was extremely fast.

The thousands of camel cavalry who were charging were charging excitedly, and their eyes were full of victory, but suddenly, many camel cavalry seemed to notice that something was wrong!!

"What's that?" An enemy general charged as he pointed in surprise at the flaming fuse that was swaying on the ground not far ahead! (To be continued.) )
