Chapter 17: In Danger

Zhang Lang hurriedly came to Zhang Lang with a young man with no white skin on his chin, hugged his fists and said: "General, this person was originally a eunuch in the palace, and he was also captured by the Huns at the time of the incident, he knows the situation of his wife!" ”

Zhang Lang suddenly got up and asked urgently, "Do you know my wife's situation?" Where is she now? ”

The eunuch said respectfully: "At the time of the incident, the villain saw with his own eyes that the car of General Gao Shun and his wife was surrounded by Hun cavalry, and later General Zang Ba led an army to kill the Huns, and rescued the general's family and guards!" ”

Zhang Lang was pleasantly surprised, "What you said is true!" ”

"The villain will never dare to deceive the general! These are what the villains have seen with their own eyes! ”

Zhang Lang only felt that the whole person suddenly relaxed, and let out a long breath.

"Are you Lu Bu?" Cai Yan asked in surprise. Zhang Lang nodded. Cai Yan showed a look of unconfidence, she couldn't believe that the 'three-surnamed slaves' in the world's mouth would go deep into the grassland for the sake of the people and her wife! glanced at Lu Bu's side face, and was very puzzled!

About half an hour later, more than 60,000 captives embarked on their way home under the escort of nearly 3,000 iron horsemen from Zhang Lang. All the oxen and carriages that could be used were used to carry the old and weak women and children. Many people were elated, but there were also many who could not hide their sadness, and they all had loved ones who died in the chaos not long ago.

The Huns discovered this team, but they didn't dare to come over for the time being, because the scale of the team composed of more than 60,000 people was still very large, and the Huns didn't know how many people there were in the Han army for the time being, so they didn't dare to act rashly.

……

The eyes temporarily turned to the Henan area. Cao Cao and Liu Bei were chasing Dong Zhuo with all their might, and they kept seeing the miserable scene after being ravaged by the grassland cavalry along the way, but they didn't do anything for it, and still chased Dong Zhuo at full speed, only Liu Bei lamented with tears: "The world is crowded, how innocent are the people!" ”

Just when they were chasing Dong Zhuo with all their might, they suddenly got a news that Lu Bu led three thousand iron horsemen under his command into the grassland in order to save his wife. Guan Yu laughed, "Lu Bupifu, he actually didn't care about a big thing for a woman!" Cao Cao pondered: "This is in our favor!" Without Lu Bu, our chances of victory are even greater! Liu Bei nodded.

Cao Cao ordered the army to speed up.

……

Zhang Lang led 3,000 iron cavalry to escort more than 60,000 people all the way south. The Huns had scruples and never dared to act. More than half a month later, the team finally marched to a place more than 30 miles away from Beiyucheng in Yunzhong County. Everyone was exhausted, but they were in good spirits.

A sentry galloped from the rear and reported urgently: "General, a large number of Hun cavalry have been found in the northwest!" Zhang Lang frowned, and took Zhang Liao and a dozen other horsemen up the hill, looking in the northwest direction, only to see the banners surging, and the Hun cavalry surging like the sea.

Zhang Lang frowned, and couldn't help but scold: "Damn! Seeing that I was about to get home, I actually chased after him! ”

Zhang Liao observed for a moment, "It's the banner of the prince of the Huns!" It must have come for revenge! ”

"Humph! Pass the order down and line up to fight! ”

Woo......! The trumpet sounded, and the three thousand horsemen immediately converged on a hill to the northwest and lined up in battle. When the people learned that the Huns were coming, they panicked, and the scene suddenly became chaotic! Cai Yan, who was sitting in the ox cart, lifted the curtain and looked to the northwest, and saw that Zhang Lang and his iron cavalry had lined up on the hill. A group of knights galloped beside the ranks of the people, and the leading knight shouted: "Don't be afraid, everyone! We will hold the Huns in check! Follow us and don't mess around! ”

The panicked mood of the people couldn't help but calm down a lot, and the scene was not as chaotic as just now!

Nearly 20,000 Hun cavalry came to the front of the army and stopped. The opponent's 20,000 cavalry and Zhang Lang's 3,000 cavalry are put together, Zhang Lang's 3,000 cavalry really looks too thin!

Zhang Lang looked at the Xiongnu prince and saw a very thin but very strong young man, wearing the traditional Hun fur fur hat, covered with a Han iron armor, surrounded by more than a dozen Xiongnu warriors, all burly and round-waisted, holding mace and other weapons, murderous appearance.

A Xiongnu general rode his horse and flew out of the military formation, shouting: "Listen, Han Dynasty people! If you don't want to be slaughtered, quickly dismount and beg to surrender! ”

Zhang Liao was furious and slapped his horse out.

When the Hun general saw that the other party was out of battle, he showed excitement and shouted to meet him. The Hun cavalry shouted, and the sound shook the sky. The people who were fleeing for their lives towards Beiyu City heard a loud shout behind them, and they all looked back with a look of panic on their faces. Cai Yan, who was sitting in the ox cart, couldn't help but worry about Zhang Lang's safety.

Zhang Liao and the Hun general staggered, and the Hun general was cut into two pieces, one move!

The shouts of the Huns came to an abrupt end, and many people's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of fear.

Zhang Liao reined in his horse, glanced at the bloody corpse on the grass, and yelled at all the Huns: "Who dares to fight with me?" ”

A Xiongnu warrior beside the Xiongnu prince rode out of the battle, raising a mace and killing Zhang Liao. This person is extremely majestic and imposing, and he is a famous warrior among the Huns, named Le Meng, and his reputation is extremely high.

The Huns shouted again, and everyone was eager for Le Meng to kill the Han general.

However, after more than ten rounds, Le Meng was exhausted and timid, and was slashed off the horse by Zhang Liao! The hearts of the Huns were shaken! The Xiongnu prince couldn't help but show a look of horror. A man who looked like a military advisor next to him hurriedly said: "Prince, hurry up and order the whole army to rush and kill!" The prince of the Huns came back to his senses, his eyes showed cruelty, he drew his scimitar, and shouted: "Kill! Kill the Han people! ”

The horn of the Huns sounded, and 20,000 Hun cavalry howled and killed the Han army, and the iron hooves rolled, like a raging evil Lang!

Zhang Lang raised Fang Tian's painting halberd: "The whole army charges!" Fight to the end! ”

The three thousand iron horsemen only felt the blood rushing to their heads, and they shouted violently and burst out of the embankment! 3,000 iron cavalry charged against the 20,000 iron cavalry of the Huns, without hesitation!

In the blink of an eye, the two sides collided together, roaring and screaming, and the collision of weapons resounded! The Huns waved their weapons frantically, and the Han iron cavalry sacrificed their lives to fight! Blood rain danced in the sky, and warriors on both sides kept falling off their horses! The terrifying power of the Han army's iron cavalry made the Huns feel that it was difficult to resist the enemy at first! Zhang Lang took the lead, and there was no one who cohesed everywhere he passed.

However, the difference in strength between the two sides is too great! Although the Han army's iron cavalry was brave, it was overstretched and difficult to deal with in the face of the steppe wolves that were seven times their size! An iron cavalry pierced the chest of a Hun cavalry with a spear in his hand, and more Hun cavalry screamed and rushed up, he didn't have time to withdraw his spear, so he could only abandon the spear and pull out his waist knife to kill, and killed two Huns in a row, but was cut down by the Hun cavalry who rushed up from the rear!

Zhang Lang and Zhang Liao are also in a predicament, although the two are ten thousand enemies, the enemy in front of them seems to be inexhaustible!

The whole battlefield situation gradually developed in favor of the Huns!
