Chapter 1304: A Guide Must Be Found

Two or three thousand barbarian soldiers collided with more than a thousand Han soldiers, and both sides were shouting and desperately pushing forward.

At first, the Han army was able to maintain a neat queue to move forward, but later, under the collision of the barbarians, the Han army's array gradually loosened.

Holding the handle of the axe with both hands, Xu Huang rushed into the barbarians, and the big axe danced with a tiger.

All the brute soldiers who stood in front of him were struck by the big axe, and all of them were splashed with blood, and their corpses were on the spot.

A brute saw Xu Huang's big axe slashing towards him, and hurriedly raised his shield to cover it.

The heavy axe slashed into the shield, and with a "click" sound, the shield was suddenly broken in two, and the head of the brute holding the shield was also split from the middle.

The brute soldier who still held half of the split shield in his hand, and half of his head fell to the ground, falling straight down, and was soon trampled under the feet of the barbarian soldiers who rushed up from behind.

The brute was extremely rudimentary, except for shields and some blades made of bamboo and sticks, except for short axes with some iron.

Compared with the barbarians, the soldiers of the Han army were heavily clothed and armored, and the knives in their hands were sharp, and the barbarians who fought with them shirtless were cut down to the ground in pieces.

Holding the handle of the big axe in both hands, seeing the chief of the barbarian soldiers directing the fight behind him from a distance, Xu Huang roared, picked the big axe like a windmill, and rushed towards the barbarian chieftain.

Rushing into the barbarians, Xu Huang's big axe flew up and down, and pieces of barbarians were slashed by the big axe and fell to the ground.

Rushing all the way to kill, Xu Huang didn't know how many barbarians he had killed, the only thing he knew was that the clothes and armor on his body were stained with red blood.

Seeing Xu Huang rushing into the middle of the barbarians, Shi Huang suddenly felt anxious in his heart, yelled, and followed to kill.

The two generals charged forward, and the morale of the soldiers of the Han army was suddenly greatly boosted, and they shouted one after another, and launched a fierce pounce on the barbarians.

Although the Han army was small in number, it was well-equipped, and there were many barbarian soldiers, all of whom were only shirtless, and their protection was very insufficient.

Under the onslaught of the Han army, pieces of barbarian soldiers fell.

The barbarians in front of them pushed forward hard, trying to push the Han army backwards.

But soon they found that the clansmen who were pushed to the front fell under the sword of the Han army.

It was found that their pushing had no effect on the Han army at all, and the morale of the barbarians gradually began to disintegrate.

Although they are barbarians who grow in the mountains and forests, people still spare their lives after all.

The barbarians at the back saw the clansmen in front of them falling, while the soldiers of the Han army, like a huge plowshare, were advancing towards them, and they were suddenly shocked that their faces were like earth, and they were trembling one by one, and they were trembling all over.

Some timid and fearful barbarians had already begun to look around in horror on the way forward, and made plans to flee.

However, among the brute soldiers, there are also some characters who are not very bright-headed and only brave and ruthless on weekdays.

The barbarians in front fell in pieces, but they still shouted and pushed towards the Han army on the opposite side.

Wielding a big axe, Xu Huang killed dozens of barbarian soldiers in succession, and finally rushed in front of the barbarian chieftain.

The chief was urging the brutes to come forward and fight, not noticing Xu Huang coming out of the crowd, and he was taken aback when Xu Huang jumped in front of him.

Just as he was about to raise his weapon to fight Xu Huang, Xu Huang had already roared and picked up the big axe, and slashed down at him.

The poor barbarian chief, before he could understand what had happened, was chopped from head to head by Xu Huang with an axe, and was split in two.

An axe slashed the barbarian chieftain to death, Xu Huang raised the big axe high and shouted to the Han army and barbarian soldiers present: "The thief chief is dead, and the army is fighting hard!" ”

Hearing Xu Huang's shout, the morale of the soldiers of the Han army was suddenly greatly boosted, and they shouted in unison, launching a new round of pounce towards the barbarians.

The language of the barbarians was very different from that of the Han people, and the barbarians could not understand what Xu Huang was shouting.

However, there were still some brutes who turned their heads to look at him.

Finding that the chieftain of the leader of the army was dead, the barbarians were suddenly in chaos, and the barbarians who were pushing at the back coaxed and fled in all directions, while those in front also fought and retreated, hoping to escape from the Han army.

When Xu Huang led the army to the expedition, Xu Shu had specially instructed him that once he fought with the barbarians, he would kill as many as he could, and he must make the barbarians fearful.

With Xu Shu's order, how could Xu Huang let go of the barbarians lightly, and when the barbarians retreated, he yelled again: "Kill!" ”

The soldiers of the Han army, who had no intention of stopping lightly, heard this loud roar from him, roared again, and rushed up with the barbarians.

While charging, the soldiers of the Han army who chased after the barbarians waved their knives and slashed the barbarians running in front of them to the ground.

Seeing that the barbarians were running fast, some Han soldiers took off their crossbows from their backs and fired arrows at the backs of the barbarians as they pursued.

One by one, the arrows flew towards the barbarians, and one by one the barbarians fell to the ground, which caused an extremely powerful coercion on the psychology of the fleeing barbarians.

Many barbarians who were in a panic only knew how to blindly run along the main road, and they were shot to the ground by the Han army who caught up.

There were also some slightly clever brute soldiers, who ran not far away, and jumped to the nearby mountains and forests, and soon escaped from under the noses of the Han army under the cover of the mountains and forests.

After chasing and killing for half an hour, seeing that there were corpses of barbarians all the way, and it was impossible for the barbarians running in front to catch up again, Xu Huang stopped and shouted to the chasing Han soldiers: "Don't chase again!" ”

Although most of the barbarians ran away, they still wanted to continue to catch up for another journey, until Xu Huang gave the order not to chase again, they stopped one after another.

"Bury the body on the spot!" Glancing back at the corpses of the barbarians who had been left behind, Xu Huang shouted, "I'll camp on the spot and wait for the army to come here!" ”

"No!" After a fight, the soldiers of the Han Army, who were heart-wrenching, responded with a shocking response.

Xu Huang defeated the Han army, and on the same day, he sent soldiers Pegasus to Chengdu and reported to Xu Shu.

In Chengdu City, Zhuge Jun, the newlywed Yan'er, issued an order for all troops and horses to prepare for the battle, and waited for Xu Huang's news with Xu Shu.

After waiting for more than a day, he was discussing with Xu Shu in the barracks where to enter the barbarian territory, and a personal soldier ran to the door of the barracks, clasped his fists and said to the two people in the house: "Prime Minister Qi, general, General Xu has sent back the news that they have started a fight with the barbarians. In two attacks and battles, more than 800 barbarians were killed, and our army lost five soldiers and wounded seventy-two......"

Hearing the report of the pro-soldiers, Xu Shu and Zhuge both glanced at each other, and Zhuge Jun waved his hand to the pro-soldiers at the door and said, "You should step aside!" ”

"No!" The soldier responded, maintained a fist-hugging posture, and stepped back.

When the soldiers retreated, Zhuge Jun said to Xu Shu: "Prime Minister, our army lost five people and injured seventy-two people, but killed eight or nine hundred Southern Barbarians, so will Xu Huang falsely report his achievements?" ”

"No!" Shaking his head, Xu Shu smiled slightly, and said to Zhuge Jun: "Nanban has no preparation this time, only when our army is transporting grain to the other place, what they think is that our army has few soldiers, and if they suddenly kill, they will definitely seize the grain and grass and annihilate our army there, but they don't know that our army is already ready, just waiting for them to go and fight!" ”

Nodding, Zhuge Jun frowned slightly, and said to Xu Shu: "In the past two days, the last general and his wife have also mentioned the Nanban, but the lady said that the Nanban territory is vast and has many mountains and forests, and there are many miasma in the forest, once our army enters, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a way out!" ”

"There must be a guide!" Nodding, Xu Shu said to Zhuge Jun: "I have ordered someone to go to the Nanban Realm to find a guide, but I don't know how it is going now." ”

"Since General Xu Huang has sent back the news and defeated the Southern Barbarians, the Southern Barbarians will definitely attack in a big way!" With his brows furrowed, Zhuge Jun said: "If the last general leads the army to the other place first and is stationed on the spot, it will not cause General Xu Huang to suffer a big loss!" ”

Xu Shu didn't say anything, just nodded in agreement.

Zhuge Jun stood up, clasped his fists and said to Xu Shu: "That is the case, the last general will go to order all the soldiers and horses, and the army will go to the battle, the sooner the better!" ”

"General Zhuge and stay!" After speaking, Zhuge Jun turned around and was about to leave, Xu Shu hurriedly stopped him and said to him: "The army is going out, today I want the soldiers to rest for a night, General Zhuge also went home to say goodbye to his wife, and it is not too late to go out early tomorrow morning!" ”

After thinking for a while, Zhuge Jun nodded and said: "Okay, the last general will go to order all the soldiers and horses, and first inform the soldiers that they will go out early tomorrow morning and ask them to bring enough food, grass, and weapons." Say goodbye to my wife tonight and set out tomorrow! ”

"I wish General Zhuge a victory!" Standing up, Xu Shu clasped his fists and arched towards Zhuge Jun.

"Thank you, Prime Minister!" Picked up his fists and gave Xu Shu a salute back, Zhuge Jun said: "The last general is waiting for the prime minister in the land of the Southern Barbarians!" ”

The two said goodbye, and Zhuge rushed straight to Dian Wei and Xu Chu's barracks, asking them to prepare their troops and horses for the expedition tomorrow.

A few days ago, seeing Xu Huang lead the army out of Chengdu, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were anxious like ants on a hot pot, neither sitting nor standing, just looking forward to the order to go out as soon as possible.

Suddenly learned from Zhuge Jun that the army was about to go on an expedition, and the two of them were overjoyed, and without a moment's delay, they hurried out of the barracks and informed the soldiers that they had gone.

The task of informing the soldiers of the upcoming expedition was handed over to Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and Zhuge Jun left the barracks under the escort of a team of personal soldiers.

Out of the barracks, he did not delay on the way, and went straight to his mansion.

Yan'er, who was newly married to Yan Feiyan, was about to go on an expedition, and in his heart, he was still a little reluctant!
