Chapter 268: Reversal of the Situation

Hunting arrogantly in front of the camp, looking at the towering cliffs in the distance, he was stunned.

Wudan has been gone for more than 20 days, and there is no news at all, I don't know if he is still on the road or has been defeated.

Either way, it doesn't bode well. According to the prior plan, Wudan went around to Shanxi, attacked the Dawan people in the mountain pass, and after meeting him, they rushed to Dawan together. According to the calculation of time, Wudan should have arrived a long time ago. There's no movement yet, so something must have happened.

Without Udan's assistance, it would have been difficult for him to pass through this mountain pass on his own. Even if he forcibly captured the position of the Dawan people at any cost, he would not be able to capture Suye City because of the large casualties, and he would not be able to achieve the intended strategic goal. Rather than this, it is better not to attack.

It's just that in this way, his plan to expedition to Dawan this time will be in vain.

A well-planned battle to conquer the Yue clan became like this, all because of those Han people.

Hunting arrogant's heart became more and more uneasy. He was in the Xiongnu for many years, and his hatred between the Xiongnu and the Han was clear. In the past 30 years, the strength of the Han Dynasty has become stronger and stronger, but the Huns are still similar to the times of Mao Dun Danyu, or even inferior, and the comparison of strength between the two sides has changed. After the little emperor of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, although the harmony continued, some things were different.

A vicious war is inevitable, and whether or not he can break away from the Huns before this and strive for independence is the thing that Hunt Jiaomi has always thought about the most.

He was unwilling to become a vassal of the Huns and was dragged into the abyss of war by the Huns. Usun wants to be an independent kingdom that is not subject to anyone.

With the help of the power of the Huns, conquering the Yueshi and occupying the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains was his carefully prepared plan. If he succeeds, he can break away from the control of the Huns and dominate one side.

Pity. This plan came to naught because of Gulu Fox's whim. However, even if you are arrogant, you don't know how this thing came to be like this, and it's a little incredible how you look at it. Isn't it just a few Han people, isn't it just a Han boy who is good at shooting, how can he drag the powerful Hun Evil King like this, and even destroy the war he has carefully prepared?

Could this be providence? The Han is so strong, just one messenger can stir up chaos in the world?

Arekan stepped out and stood behind Hunter. "What are you thinking?"

"I'm ......" Hunter hesitated for a moment, then turned around and hugged Arekan in his arms. I'm wondering where Wudan has gone. ”

"This unproductive thing." Arikan scolded: "It must be to attack Suye City." ”

"Attack Suye City?" Hunter Jiao was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his eyes immediately collapsed. If this is the case, then it can explain why there has been no news from Wudan for a long time. It's just that in this way, won't you become a wronged leader? Busy in vain?

Udan is really hateful.

Hunting arrogance suddenly had bad intentions. Since Wudan is playing with me, why don't I play with him too? I withdrew to Shannan, went to spend the winter, and let Wudan stay in Dawan alone. Without my containment, these Dawan people will definitely return to Suye City, and it will be up to Wudan to deal with it when the time comes.

"What are you thinking?" Arekan suddenly said, "Do you particularly hate Wudan?" ”

"Nope." Hunter laughed. "He came to fight for me, how could I hate him. However, he did have some nonsense. There is no Lao Wang steady. No wonder Lao Wang wants to pass the throne to Gulu Fox. ”

At the mention of Lao Wang and Gulu Fox, Arekan's eyes became fierce. "Someday. I'm going to kill this man and avenge my father and brother. ”

Hunter didn't say anything, just put his arm around Arekhan's shoulder. He knew that Arekan loved his younger brother Gulu Fox the most, and as soon as he mentioned Gulu Fox, Arekan would throw Wudan aside.

――

Yu Cai sat in a daze in the camp halfway up the mountain.

Although half a month has passed, the scene of that day has been lingering in his dreams. The Huns were like the black wind on the desert, rolling in, destroying the withering and decaying, and the power to destroy everything left a deep impression on him, and it always made people wake up in the middle of the night. Sweating coldly.

He regretted it.

Li Shuyun reminded him many times to be careful of the Hun attack, but he didn't take it seriously, and was hit by the Huns, and more than 10,000 foot cavalry were lost, leaving only more than 1,000 horsemen around him who were also frightened and had no fighting spirit.

How to explain to the king of Dawan, how to explain to the magnates of Dawan?

Will the cicada seal make a comeback because of this?

As soon as he thought of the cicada seal, he regretted it. It was time to seize the opportunity and kill them all. For a while, he was soft, leaving a cicada seal, and he also left a bane. Now that he has been defeated, once the cicada is sealed and returned to the dynasty, I am afraid it will not be so easy to speak.

In the blink of an eye, the victory and defeat are reversed, and life and death are easy to deal with.

What can I do? I was full of sorrow, but there was nothing I could do but drink to dispel my sorrows. It's a pity that all the good wine brought was lost to the Huns, and now all that can be drunk is bad wine, which is still saved by Andrew and others.

He took a sip of wine into his mouth and swallowed it reluctantly, bitter from his mouth to his heart.

"Vice Wang ......" A guard barged in, his face beaming with joy. When he saw it, he was annoyed and threw the wine glass out. "Get out!"

A person flashed in, reached out to catch the wine glass, and said with a smile: "Why, the vice king doesn't welcome me?" ”

When he looked up, he saw that it was Li Shuyun, and quickly stood up. "It turned out to be General Li, ashamed, ashamed. Hey, why did you come back? ”

Li Shuyun walked up to Cai Cai, gently put the wine glass on the table, picked up the wine bottle again, poured half a glass of wine, and handed it to Cai Cai. Mo Cai didn't understand what he meant, and took it blankly, but his eyes were staring at Li Shuyun, and his face was red and white for a while. Li Shuyun went to inform Suye City to be careful of the Huns, and after so many days, did he come back, could it be that Suye City was lost?

"Vice King, my family has ordered me to come to see the Vice King, and ask the Vice King to prepare to fight back against the Huns."

"Fight back against the Huns?" Mo Cai muttered a sentence, and for a moment he couldn't turn around. "Your family...... My lord? ”

"Yes, my lord said that it won't be long before the Huns will be defeated, please ask the deputy king to reorganize the soldiers and horses, choose the opportunity to attack, and take the head of Wudan, so as to achieve complete success." Li Shuyun unhurriedly told him about the situation in Suye City. Before he could finish listening, his bloodshot eyes lit up. He put down the wine glass, pulled Li Shuyun's arm tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "What are you talking about, Huns...... Didn't take Suye City? ”

Li Shuyun said with a smile: "With the help of my family and the cavalry of the Five Thousand Moon Clan, how could the Huns capture Suye City." The deputy king can rest assured, the Huns will definitely not be able to enter the city for a single step, they can only come from where and where to go. ”

"Hahaha......" Wei Cai laughed loudly. It's a great feeling to be in a desperate situation. Liang Xiao actually successfully formed an alliance with the Yue Clan and brought five thousand Yue Clan cavalry, not only was Suye City safe, but the entire battle situation would also be completely reversed. Wudan could not attack the city, so he could only return the same way. This came and went for 6,070 miles, and there was not enough grain and grass to carry the weight, so there was no need to fight, and God would torture the Huns to death.

And if I lead the cavalry to surprise him again? The more he thought about it, the happier he became, and his heart was full of joy. He drank the wine and slapped Li Shuyun's shoulder hard, crying with joy. "General Li, your lordship...... It saved my life. ”

"My lord said that he and the vice-king hit it off at first sight, and they should help each other. Besides, without the arrogant enemy of the vice king, how could Wudan dare to be so arrogant, not to take the mountain pass, and to attack Suye first. If this battle is won, the vice king will be the first merit. ”

Mo Cai was ashamed, but hopeful. When Liang Xiao said this, he was naturally willing to support me. Although there are many people who know that I have been defeated, there are only a few people who can speak in front of King Dawan. As long as I turn defeat into victory, I will be the hero who repelled the Wusun people, who can say irresponsible things? With the big man as a backer, how can the cicada seal shake my status?

In a matter of moments, he made a decision. "If you can succeed, you will not forget the great grace of Liang Jun. General Li, it's great that you came back, I didn't listen to General Li's good words that day, and I suffered such a big defeat, and I asked General Li not to give up and help me. ”

Li Shuyun said a few words modestly and agreed.

Mo Cai discussed with Li Shuyun again, and then convened the generals to discuss the matter. Knowing that Liang Xiao had brought the Five Thousand Moon Clan's elite horsemen, and Suye City was safe and sound, the Great Wan generals were immediately relieved. What they were most worried about was that the Huns would conquer Suye City and not leave. In this way, Dawan will face the crisis of losing the country, and they are the culprits.

If the Huns could not conquer Suye City, then things would be completely different. Without the danger of losing the country, all that remains is how to turn defeat into victory and clear one's guilt. After analyzing the situation of both the enemy and us, taking advantage of the defeat and retreat of the Huns to ambush became a choice that killed two birds with one stone.

In normal times, it is impossible for the generals of Dawan to be willing to listen to the command of Li Shuyun as a Han Chinese, but now they are eager to make meritorious service to atone for their crimes, I heard that Li Shuyun has just followed Liang Xiao to attack the camp of the Huns at night, killing more than a thousand enemies, and retreating. It didn't take much time for Li Shuyun to become the actual commander of the more than 1,000 remnants of the Great Wan.

On the one hand, Li Shuyun boosted morale, and on the other hand, he sent people to Beikou to explore the surrounding terrain and find a suitable ambush site.

At the same time, Li Shuyun and Andrew converged and informed the Wusun people of Wudan's fiasco at Suye City, and presented half of Wudan's battle flag as proof. He added fuel and vinegar, doubled the number of Yue's cavalry, and said that reinforcements from the surrounding cities were rapidly coming, and the encirclement and annihilation of Wushan were just around the corner.

Hunter Jiaomi, who was already retiring, saw Wudan's battle flag, and despite Arekan's strong opposition, he immediately withdrew his troops, traveled day and night, and returned to the pasture, no longer caring about Wudan's life or death. In the face of Arekan's threat, he only asked one question: "How many chances do you think Wudan has to leave Dawan alive?" ”

Arekan was speechless, and felt a chill in his heart.

The battlefield of the mountain pass was calm, and two thousand Greek veterans held out for more than a month, successfully holding back the Uzun and protecting their homeland with negligible casualties. They were so excited that they shook the mountains with cheers, and the cavalry was ashamed and a little itchy at the same time. They were gearing up, looking forward to the battle, looking forward to their own victory.
