Military minister Shan Yu frowned and fell into contemplation, he is not only the supreme leader of the Xiongnu tribe, but also the son of heaven in the name of the grassland desert, the full name of the Xiongnu Shan Yu is the plough Gu Tu Shan Yu, the plough in the Xiongnu language refers to the sky, the Gu Tu in the Xiongnu language refers to the son, Shan Yu in the Xiongnu language refers to the vast, the plough Gu Tu Shan in the full name of the meaning of death is, the great lord of thousands of tribes under the sky, the son of the sky, the king of kings, its meaning is equivalent to the emperor of the Han Empire. n∈

He is carrying the burden of the grassland desert, can not do anything for the sake of a moment of righteousness, when the old Shangshan Yu chose to reuse the eunuch Zhongxing said, he chose to re-promote Zhao She, all of which show the political tendency of the Xiongnu Shan Yu, and the more enlightened admonition is the quality that a wise monarch should have.

King Zuo Xian clenched his fists and gritted his teeth hatefully: "Da Danyu, what can we do with our lost population?" That's a good boy from all tribes! ā€

"Beggar, haven't you seen it clearly? Our Great Huns can't continue to fight with the Han people, and you, the leader of the Eastern Route Army who is responsible for attacking the Han Dynasty, are not qualified! Zuogu Liwang Yizhi sneered.

"I'm oblique! You're looking for death! ā€

Yi Zhi spitted: "You are such an idiot! The losses of the Huns are so great, the black cavalry of the Han army is unstoppable, if you are not blind and deaf, you can see clearly, and the nobles here can also see clearly, if the Han army is full of strength to chase and fight us, it will take three or five months in Yanmen County, and our cattle and sheep will be eaten up as soon as the weather is cold. Everybody's going to die here! Everyone listens to you, and then you take full responsibility? ā€

"You...... You! ā€

King Zuo Xian was about to be mad.

The military minister stopped the argument between the two: "I know your opinions. Let me think about it for a few days before making a decision, it's still very early ......."

"Report! The big order is not good. The Han army has attacked our camp! ā€

"What?" The military minister jumped up suddenly: "Quickly gather men and horses to meet the Han army!" ā€

The Han army is coming!

Before the Huns could react, they heard a loud bang at the camp gate, and the broken gate was smashed to pieces.

In the dark night, the Hun camp was reflected red, and it was a fire burning.

The Xiongnu's camp was very scattered, and it was not like the Han army with hundreds of thousands of people connected into a large camp, but a handful of loose and loose scattered in the east and west, and the large camp was surrounded by wooden rows.

The camp gate was not strong, and the battering rams carried by the chariots could easily smash the gates. The cavalry swarmed in and took up a vantage point in the camp.

Black Armor!

As far as the eye could see, there were black-armored cavalry that could not be seen, only the fiery red banner of the Han army was still eye-catching.

Cao Shi rushed into the camp first, with 500 guards on his side surrounding the four directions, and the east and west flanks of the camp attacked at the same time, and the shouts of killing could be heard in the distance a few miles away.

He was followed by only 100,000 cavalry, in addition to 30,000 infantry and 20,000 chariots, who jumped from their chariots and rushed into formation.

By this time the Huns had already rushed over.

"Kill!"

The Hun cavalry was notoriously fearless of death, and they didn't even wear armor in the face of the rain of arrows, and they held short knives and war bows to fire arrows head-on.

Ding Ding Ding.

The armor of the black-armored cavalry was heavy. The inner layer of the armor has a thick layer of felt cloth, which can not only be used as the inner lining of the armor to make it more comfortable to wear, but also play an important role in secondary protection.

Most of the Xiongnu bows and arrows were very ordinary wooden bows, and there were very few compound bows such as horn bows. The power of the arrows can only pierce through the traditional armor of the Han army, and the effect against the new black light armor is very poor, because the armor is made of gray iron. The whole body is covered with a dark halo, and it was once jokingly called black light armor. The armor supplied to the Han army had to be made into black lacquer by natural dyes such as tung oil and pine resin, soap buckets, gallnut, and so on, and it became pure black light armor.

The black-armored cavalry sneered. Holding the iron spear and driving the war horse to rush out, the cavalry slammed into each other in an instant, and the flesh and blood flew sideways.

Zhou Zuoche picked up the corpses that stood in the way, and under the fierce and ugly mask, a pair of eyes stared at the Huns in front of him, like a wild beast roaring: "Are you scared?" I want you to taste death. ā€

The Huns went crazy, rushing forward wave by wave, not caring about the terrifying combat power of the Han army, impacting again and again like a raging wave, the blood in the dark night dyed the robes red, the Huns had no way to retreat, and behind them were their relatives.

The Xiongnu nobles in command stared at the monsters like the Han cavalry in a daze, they didn't expect the combat effectiveness of the Han army's black-armored cavalry to be so strong.

"Why is the Han army so strong?"

Zuo Xianwang was in a daze, looking back at the Xiongnu nobles who came with him, looking at each other, the strength of the Han army had exceeded their imagination, it was like an invulnerable monster abusing and killing their Xiongnu warriors.

The king's tent cavalry was dispatched.

The royal tent cavalry was the hope of the Xiongnu, but the military minister Shan Yu did not send them to face the terrifying black-armored cavalry, but sent them to attack the red-armored Han army on both flanks of the camp.

The most powerful spearhead of the Han army is the black cavalry, other such as infantry and chariot soldiers are not much of a threat, with excellent riding and archery skills can easily maneuver, the black cavalry rushed up and was arrogant and domineering, and the Hun cavalry was cut clean with a gun and a knife, and it was difficult for the Huns' bows and arrows and iron knives to hurt them.

The Huns thought that their riding and archery skills were much higher than those of the Han people, and they could destroy the Han army as long as they were given the opportunity, but they had not fought before only because the Han army was too cunning and the Han army was more advanced in equipment.

Now they realized that the gap between the grades of advanced equipment is a bit big, most of the Hun cavalry still have no armor or leather armor to protect the body, the Han army has eliminated the armor from the sequence, replaced with a new black iron armor to protect the torso, ordinary arrows can not hurt the Han cavalry, melee combat can not beat the Han cavalry, the Huns are really anxious.

The royal tent cavalry bypassed the black armored cavalry of the Han army, and rushed to the weak areas on both flanks in an attempt to open up the situation, and there was no difference between ordinary Han troops and a prey within the range of their cavalry, and 60,000 royal tent cavalry rushed out, instantly turning the tide of the battle again.

"Let the infantry hold the line and not retreat. The charioteers advanced and scattered the king's tent cavalry, and the crossbowmen on the chariots suppressed the fire. ā€

It's not dark. The night sky is dotted with stars, and a crescent moon hangs high. The Han army and the Xiongnu army lit the flames together, and the felt tents that were burning everywhere were the best lighting.

Although at a disadvantage, but the Huns occupy an absolute numerical advantage, gradually come back to their senses of the Hun herdsmen continue to ride on horses to launch counterattacks, because the Huns' well-trained plans to raid and burn camp tents are only a small part, a large number of Hun cavalry can calmly put on armor, ride on war horses to counterattack.

Laugh at!

A gust of wind blew in his ears, and Cao Shi raised his head to see a Hun warrior a few hundred meters away, shaking his head and turning around and burrowing back into the team, which seemed to be dressed as a royal tent cavalry. Tightly surrounded in front of the Hun tent.

In front of them were tens of thousands of Huns lined up in a neat line to block them, the herdsmen who had always been on war horses took up arms to act as infantry, and the black-armored cavalry rushed several times and found that the resistance was very resolute, so they turned around and returned to continue to slowly harvest the miscellaneous soldiers who rushed over.

Cao Shi did not let Yulin Ride charge blindly, it was not easy to fight all day during the day, and it was easy to lose balance if he rushed randomly, as long as he was caught by the Huns and the right opportunity would become a catastrophic collapse, after all, there were many opportunities, and it was not so easy to cultivate Yulin Riding when he died.

"The generals of a country will personally risk arrows to command the battle. The emperor didn't stay in Chang'an City, he had to go to the front line to command me to fight, was it right or wrong for me to teach him military at the beginning? Cao Shi was annoyed.

In fact, tonight's raid was also reluctant, and he himself was not happy to fight a night attack during the day. He didn't think that when the two sides were exhausted, they could still play with much advantage, and there was nothing wrong with the fresh force of the Southern Army. However, the cavalry of the southern army was very small, and the quality of the cavalry was much inferior to that of the northern army. The Southern Army has never been the main force fighting the Huns, and it has not played much role in coming.

Fighting back and forth, it was still the Northern Army against the Hun cavalry. The Northern Army is not light to fight a night fight, and it doesn't make much sense to sneak attack the equally tired Huns at night, the big battle results can't be obtained at all, and the small results outweigh the losses.

He was unwilling to fight useless, because the Son of Heaven drove him to attack at night, and had to fight, the emperor himself was in the camp of Ma Yi with great interest in remote command, and did not feel that the failure of the siege of Ma Yi was his own fault, if he did not jump out at the critical moment to turn the tide, with 100,000 cavalry raid on the Xiongnu camp, forcing the Huns to return to the division to rescue the old nest, the siege of Ma Yi is likely to expose the position of the Han army, and then let the cunning Huns turn around and retreat.

"Damn! If you can't fight, you have to fight, this kind of war is really tireless. ā€

Although the raid on the Xiongnu camp during the day violated the emperor's orders, it had to be exempted from punishment if it had a good effect, otherwise the emperor would have jumped up and lashed out, because Liu Che was bent on the siege of Mayi.

Cao Shi didn't care about the arrow just now, he knew that there were very powerful marksmen among the warriors of the Hun King's Tent, and they were still almost shot at him by a lack of light in the dark night from a distance of a few hundred meters, unless he hid in a place where he couldn't see people to be barely safe, otherwise the effect was almost the same anywhere in the battlefield, and personal safety would not be particularly significantly improved.

"Are the Southern troops coming?"

"It's coming, it's increasing its wings, and the king's tent cavalry is attacking fiercely, are we going to support?"

Cao Shi shook his head and said to Guan Qiang: "The Yulin cavalry is too tired, we can't let the Yulin cavalry die in vain, of course, the royal tent cavalry is also very tired, they will soon fall into fatigue after running for a day, I guess the Huns will retreat soon, this is ours." ā€

At the same time, the southern army quickly entered the two wings to consolidate the defense of the Han army on both sides, the precarious battle line gradually stabilized, the hit rate of the royal tent cavalry in the dark night was not high, and there was no way to face the rain of arrows that the southern army ignored, and the battlefield fell into a strange stalemate, the Han army and the Xiongnu army invariably chose to use bows and arrows to fight back at the opponent, and a tragic battle turned to the other direction.

As the night deepened, the two sides continued to shoot each other, and from time to time the screams of the unlucky ghosts came, and the black armor-clad Yulin rider fell into a period of fatigue, and as the fatigue hit, the burden of heavy armor became stronger and stronger, and they couldn't wait to take off their armor and rest quickly.

At this moment, Cao Shi suddenly raised his head: "Huh? The Huns seem to be retreating! Order the whole army to advance, catch up and bite to the death!
