Perhaps it was Li Guang's years of conquest that made Li Guang a little numb, or perhaps he was unwilling to completely reveal the sadness in his heart, after a short period of distraction, he picked up the binoculars on his chest, slowly scanned the vast battlefield, and said quietly: "The Huns are going to collect their troops and return to the camp." ”

Qi Shan's jaw head agreed: "The Hun cavalry on both wings has begun to retreat. ”

Li Guangjian raised his eyebrows and sneered: "After killing and injuring thousands of my Han family sons, you have to stop, is it really so easy?" ”

The generals behind him saw that many robes were killed on the battlefield, and their eyes were already broken, and when they heard the killing intent in Li Guang's words, they were all shocked, and they all stepped forward to ask for battle.

"Don't be in a hurry, this time the Huns will not come back!" Li Guang waved his hand, appeased the generals of Xiliu, and then issued a series of military orders: "Let the two wings of the elite cavalry stick close, and restrain the Hun cavalry to the death, and not let them retreat safely." The cavalry battalion of the front army took turns to attack, and once the Xiongnu retreated, they would charge until the Huns were re-arranged, and then they could return to the military formation. The battalions stopped their rotation and returned to their own positions to prepare for battle. ”

Seeing that it was already Bo Xishan, the Hun generals became more and more uneasy, and even a little panicked. After King Lou Fu ordered the withdrawal of the army, the Xiongnu iron cavalry originally planned to withdraw from the battlefield one by one according to the usual practice. However, the Han army insisted on biting to the death, and in less than an hour, the Xiongnu Chinese army had retreated to the land of ten miles, and the Han army had also advanced to the land of ten miles. Seeing that the Hun camp behind him was faintly in sight, but the Hun generals did not dare to collect their troops and return to the camp. Although the Han army has suffered thousands of casualties, it still has an absolute numerical advantage, and the armor is excellent, and the Hun iron cavalry in simple leather armor in close combat is not the opponent of the Han army. If the Huns return to the camp with iron cavalry, once the camp is surrounded, it will be destroyed at the moment.

King Lou's face was pale, but he was at a loss. And the Aries King was even more annoyed in his heart, knowing that he shouldn't have joined forces with this fool in the first place, and now he was forced into such a situation by the Han army, how could it be good. The Aries King secretly retreated in his heart, found a way to go to the toilet, and wanted to go back to the camp first.

The troubled King Lou didn't doubt that he had him, but that the Aries King was cowardly, waving his hand with disdain, signaling him to take care of himself. The Aries King was secretly happy in his heart, and he didn't care about the contempt of the King of Lou Fu at all, and immediately took his generals to return to the camp. When he returned to the camp, his face was solemn, and he ordered in a low voice: "Quickly prepare all the grain and grass, try your best to gather our iron cavalry, and if you see the opportunity is wrong, you will follow this king south to Gusiwang Ferry!" ”

Gusiwang Ferry is a shallow water ferry in the northeast of the Hetao, at the small corner of the Yellow River. It is the only way to cross the small corner of the Yellow River within hundreds of miles during the Yellow River's wet season. After crossing the Gusiwang ferry, you can rush to the big corner of the Yellow River, pass through several shallow waters, enter the land of Shuofang in Henan, and then escape.

At this time, the dazed Lou Fu Wang was already very anxious, the afterglow of the sunset gradually dimmed, the faint starlight could be seen faintly in the sky, and the night was about to fall on the grassland.

The Han people want to fight at night! King Lou Fu's heart froze, and he guessed the mind of Li Guang, the commander of the Han army, and couldn't help but be shocked.

Li Guang, who was far away in the Han army, although he didn't know whether the Huns knew the Han army's strategy, he didn't care, seeing that the overall situation had been decided, the Huns had not withdrawn from the battlefield at this time, and they were powerless to return to the sky.

This strategy was first proposed by Qi Shan, the left supervisor of Yulin. Night combat is a tactical idea that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince often emphasizes in Yulin and Huben. In fact, since Liu Che crossed over to the Han Dynasty, he has repeatedly found the classics in the palace and analyzed the classic battles that can be recorded in history hundreds of years before the early Han Dynasty.

In the magnificent Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the famous night battle was the Qi Kingdom in the East. In various classics, Liu Che found that there is a considerable reason why Qi is good at night warfare - Qi people rely on the sea to eat fish! The connection between eating fish and night fighting is related to the fact that many of the people in the Central Plains at that time suffered from blindfolding, which in later words is night blindness.

As the name suggests, night blindness is the difficulty of seeing clearly and moving in the dark at night or in dimly lit environments. Night blindness is a chronic disease that can be inherited and can only be relieved by vitamin A ingestion from fresh fish, meat, eggs, legumes, dairy and offal animals, and vegetables. However, it is only alleviated, and in ancient times, when medical care was backward and diet was simple, it was very difficult to completely cure night blindness.

In later studies, it was believed that the northern nomads ate meat and dairy products as their staple food, and the chances of suffering from night blindness were much smaller than those of the farming peoples in the Central Plains. Liu Che had always been preconceived to this view, but when he learned that the Qiang slaves of the Tian business group were completely unable to work at night, he realized that the truth was very different from what he imagined.

After consulting a large amount of information in his mind and comparing the diets of different eras, Liu Che found that the prevalence of night blindness among the nomadic and farming peoples in the East had undergone a major reversal in Chinese history. Unlike the Turks in the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Xiongnu and Xiqiang in the Han Dynasty had a much higher chance of suffering from night blindness than the Han people.

Although the Huns took meat and milk as the staple food, but fresh meat and milk are not easy to preserve, except for the nobles and a few elite cavalry, the Huns generally ate pickled jerky, and the Huns galloping on the grassland iron cavalry, but drank milk wine, not fresh milk. As a result, the intake of vitamins was greatly reduced, and the Hun diet was mostly roasted, which inevitably hurt the liver. The so-called cleansing the liver and purging fire, detoxifying and brightening the eyes, liver fever hurts the eyes. At this time, the Huns had eye disease quite common. Even if the Hun cavalry did not inherit the surname night blindness, in the long-term field combat, if there was no time to hunt and replenish a large number of fresh animal livers, they would also be infected with the temporary surname night blindness.

The Han people, especially the elite troops of the Han Dynasty, had an ample supply of beans and vegetables in normal times, and their diet was relatively rich, but they rarely changed to night blindness. Not to mention the elite cavalry of the fine willow camp, which is "said to be two catties of wine and two catties of meat", they can be said to be the aristocratic army in the Han army, and the selected ones are all good families in the rich Guanzhong, who have been nutritious since childhood, and they are even more delicious and delicious to enter the fine willow camp. Vitamin A toxicity is possible, but deficiency is certainly not.

In history, Huo Quai's battle against the wolf Juxu was when the blind cat touched the dead mouse and got lost in the middle of the night, he happened to touch the camp of the Huns, and used the elite iron cavalry of the Han to beat a group of blind people. Even if they are not night blind, the Hun cavalry is also very powerful at night, and in terms of close combat, it is not the opponent of the Han cavalry at all.

The most important reason why the Turks and Mongol iron horsemen in later generations greatly reduced the prevalence of night blindness was the development of dairy products. Cheese was introduced to the East from Europe, the Mongols invented sour mare's milk, tea was also transported to the steppe in large quantities, and the Qiang people's butter tea was quite common. In the Central Plains, where wars are frequent and the people have no food and clothing, the rate of night blindness has greatly increased, and the volunteer soldiers during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea still can't see at night and want to send carrots quickly, which is sad and lamentable!

King Lou Fu learned of the Han army's strategy, and in a panic, he immediately ordered the Chinese army to light torches, and the whole army slowly retreated. Li Guang naturally did not obey his wishes, and the Han army bit the Hun cavalry to the death, and under the rain of arrows in the sky, they rushed towards the Hun cavalry who were rapidly retreating.

Now that night is falling, the fierce battle has been raging, and the Hun iron horsemen who have bent countless bows have long been exhausted, and they have received the order to retreat. Occasionally, he was chased in a hurry, and he didn't care about the swelling and soreness of his arm, so he turned around and shot an arrow, but he was not only weak and weak, but also unable to aim, and even many Hun cavalry who were left behind were mistakenly injured by their companions, and there was a great chaos when he landed.

On the other hand, although the Hosoyanagi Elite Cavalry pursued with all his strength and was pitch black in front of him, he was able to constantly adjust his speed and direction according to the sound of the golden drums emitted by the leading generals, and kept in astonishing synchronization with his comrades. Different from the chaotic sound of horse hooves of the Huns, the rhythm of the Han cavalry's charge was quite neat, and the rumbling sound of horse pedaling, like thunder in the dark night, shook the sky.

Qi Shan, who was in the Chinese army, couldn't help but admire, this is the discipline surname that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has repeatedly emphasized. In ancient times, large armies generally used flag language, and the army, which stretched for several miles, relied on the flag bearer to convey and receive instructions. However, in the dark night, only the Central Plains Dynasty developed a complete set of command systems with golden drums as orders. In particular, the elites of the Hosoliu Battalion, even if they can't see it, can complete coordinated operations according to the sound of the golden drum with strong penetrating power.

The Xiongnu generals also tried to reorganize their formations, but by this time the 5,000 Xiongnu cavalry on both flanks had been in disarray, and they fled to the camp and the Chinese army. In the dark night, the bonfires in the Hun camp not far away, and the blazing torches lit by the Chinese army, made them think that it was the safest place. The Xiongnu Chinese army, which was slowly retreating, could have stabilized its position a little, but in the face of the swarming two-wing cavalry, they couldn't help but avoid it one after another, and they were in a mess.

King Lou Fu heard a wail, curse and panicked shouting from the battle array ahead, and his heart was full of remorse. When he was at a loss, he heard the urgent report of the generals under his command: "King, the king of Aries has left the camp with more than a thousand cavalry!" ”

King Lou's eyes widened, his face was full of disbelief, and he was about to ask, but he heard a roar that shook the sky, and the earth began to vibrate sharply. There was a great chaos in the front of the army, and the torches lit by the Chinese soldiers also became chaotic, and the chaos quickly spread to the Hun generals in the Chinese army. The front army has broken up as quickly as possible! The two wings have scattered and fled, so withdraw your troops! ”

The Hun generals were shocked when they heard this, and they all looked at the king of Loufu. Under the reflection of the firelight, the tired King Lou Fu's face was several times, and then he gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Order the front army to block the Han army, and the generals will gather the soldiers and move south with this king!" ”

The generals of the Huns knew that although the king of Lou Fu said it well, "moving the division" clearly meant to escape. Seeing that the defeat was decided, how dare they slack off, it was important to flee for their lives, and they gathered some soldiers perfunctorily. led the soldiers under the tent, left behind more than 10,000 robes that could not be defeated, and fled south in a hurry with the king of Loufu.

At this time, Li Guangyuan watched the scattered torches of the Xiongnu Chinese army gradually disperse, and rapidly decreased until they were completely extinguished, and shouted arrogantly: "The whole army charges!" The cavalry battalions scattered in all directions to hunt and kill the remnants of the Huns, and there was no need to leave prisoners, so as not to delay the speed of the horses, and be sure not to leave any of them! The guard battalion will go with me and slay the enemy chieftain! The Great Han is mighty! ”

"The Great Han is mighty!" The generals of the fine willows were already boiling with battle spirit, and they all roared loudly and took the order to leave.

It's night, outside the pass of the Northwest Great Wall, the sound of killing is shocking, and it doesn't stop all night!
