Chapter 22 The Wulu Tribe

The total population of the tribe is about 80,000, and during the war, there are about 3,000 Hun cavalry who can be brought to the battlefield, of which less than 1,000 have fought with the Han army, and the remaining more than 2,000 people are a group of strictly trained herdsmen.

For the 10,000 led by Huo Quai, which can be said to be the most elite cavalry of the Han Dynasty at present, these 3,000 people are just lambs with weapons.

The Wulu country, a large tribe with a population of 80,000 and only 3,000 Hun cavalry, while the Invite tribe has only 60,000 people and 6,000 arms, which seems to be very unreasonable, but it is the most normal.

However, the Invite Zi tribe and the Wulu country are not treated by the Xiongnu nobles, so in order to protect themselves, the Invite Zi tribe can be regarded as almost all the soldiers, and among the 6,000 people, the youngest is only a teenager, and the oldest is even an old man in his sixties, and the real young and middle-aged people are actually much less than the Wuyu country.

In fact, the 3,000 cavalry of the Wuli country, beating the 6,000 men and horses of the Zi tribe, can be called a one-touch collapse just like playing, and in the same way, the Han army beating them is also the same as playing, and it can also be called a one-touch collapse.

Gushui, which is a big river located in the central and eastern part of the Hexi Corridor, almost runs through most of the Hexi, and the grassland that relies on the valley water to nourish is even more abundant, and the grassland near which the valley water flows has become the most ferocious area for the tribes in Hexi, there is no doubt that the grassland near Gushui is almost all occupied by the tribes of the Huns and the vassal states of the Huns.

Tribes formed by ethnic minorities such as the Invite Zi tribe can only find other grasslands that can be regarded as rich in water and grass to settle down, and those Xiongnu vassal states living near Gushui will not understand what kind of tribulation Gushui, the great river that has brought them countless wealth, will bring them on this day.

Li Tian had judged before that as long as he fought all the way along the valley, the harvest would be very rich, and he didn't need to look at the map, he would go all the way along the valley, and it would be good to see the vassal states of the Huns rushing up directly to fight, and the end was extremely simple.

The Wulu country, or the Wulu tribe, occupies a position ten miles away from the valley.

It was noon, and the scorching sun was shining on the tents of the local people everywhere, and the herdsmen of the Wudi country drove the well-fed sheep into the tribe's sheepfold, replacing them with thousands of good horses raised by the Wuyu country.

Under the care of more than 100 well-fed and idle Hun cavalry, thousands of good horses were eating grass in the grassland outside the tribe.

At this time, it was rare to see pedestrians loitering outside their tents, as most of them had taken a nap after a full meal.

For Huo Quzhi, this is simply a godsend.

More than 100 Hun cavalrymen who took care of the good horses sat on horseback, either chatting and laughing with their companions beside them, or sitting on horseback and napping, and from time to time opening their eyes to look at the war horses that were quietly grazing in front of them.

In this extremely quiet atmosphere, the loud and distant sound of horses' hooves broke the momentary silence.

"Stomp, stomp." The sound of heavy horses' hooves suddenly sounded, and the Hun cavalry, who were guarding the good horses, heard these strange noises coming from not far away.

More than a hundred Hun cavalrymen ended their conversations with their companions, and the napping soldiers also gently opened their hazy eyes from their horses, and everyone looked at the front of the horse's hooves in surprise, not understanding who was coming, because for the entire Hexi land, the arrival of Huo Qu's illness is still unknown.

The grazing Hun cavalry only thought that it was the sound of horses' hooves from their own Hun cavalry on the march, or that other tribes had passed through their grazing horses, and with this thought, many of the Hun cavalry who had just opened their eyes closed their eyes again and began to nap, and the others also resumed the interesting topics they had talked about before.

After about a minute, the sound of horses' hooves from the galloping horses became louder and louder, and there seemed to be quite a few horses listening to this sound.

At this time, in the eyes of a Hun cavalryman who was talking to his companions, in a corner of the sky under the sun, he suddenly saw a young general riding a white horse, wearing battle armor, and wearing a big red cloak appeared on the grass in the distance with a long sword, rode a horse, and looked at the heroic young general, the Hun cavalry was stunned, and the companion who was talking to him noticed his abnormality, and also looked at the place where the Hun cavalry looked.

But the next moment, looking at the scene in front of them, under the warm scorching sun, the two Hun cavalrymen actually felt a cold that was cold to the bone marrow.

"Han Han Army!!"

Looking at the big Han elite cavalry that followed the young general and suddenly broke into his line of sight, and came like a tide, the more than 100 Hun cavalry present widened their eyes in astonishment.

Looking at the bright red armor on the Han Xiaocai, looking at the sharp halberd in their hands, and the Chinese character banners that covered the sky and the sun, especially their momentum of rushing towards them like a tiger descending from the mountain, all the Hun cavalry were terrified to the extreme.

"Han Han Army!" The Hun cavalryman who saw Huo Quai's illness for the first time said these three words in a trembling voice, and soon, these three words were replaced by two other words.

"Run!"

At this time, these Hun cavalry no longer had time to think about the land of Hexi, before the tribe, why a large number of Han cavalry suddenly appeared, they only knew that if they didn't run, they would die.

In fact, it's gone.

Almost in the blink of an eye, Huo Quai, under the scorching sun, led 10,000 elite horsemen to rush in front of these Huns.

"Kill!" Huo Quai's long sword shook, and the sharp blade pierced the chest of the Hun cavalryman closest to him without reservation, "Poof." Red blood kept pouring out of his mouth, and the face of Kong Wu was full of fear at the moment.

"Brush." Huo Qubing stabbed the Hun cavalry to death with a sword, and the body fell weakly from the horse's back to the ground, and the Hun cavalry who had just adjusted the horse's head and was about to flee had already been overwhelmed by the big Han elite cavalry behind Huo Quai, "Boom! In the tide of the big man's horse, the slaughter began, more than a hundred Hun cavalry were surrounded, countless halberd broadswords stabbed into their chests like meteors, one after another screams sounded one after another, and when the halberd and broadsword left, a large amount of blood was brought out.

One after another, lifeless figures fell from their horses, these nomads, these Huns who had almost killed Liu Bang, died in front of Huo Quai, without even picking up their weapons.

In a few moments, under the siege of the Han cavalry, all the Hun cavalry were in different places, and more than 100 empty war horses were left in place, and beside them were more than 100 corpses of the Huns.

The big man rode hard, and no one was killed or injured.

Solved these Hun cavalry, Huo Qubing did not stop, led the army to attack the Wudi tribe not far away, after a skirmish just now, the morale of the Han elite cavalry had already climbed to the peak, at this moment, under the leadership of Huo Quzhi, one by one, like crazy demons, rushed into the Wudi tribe.

"No one is allowed to slaughter the people at will, just kill the stubborn enemy, if someone has no military discipline and wantonly slaughters innocents, he will not be spared!"

Huo Quai, who had already led the army to the camp of the Wulu tribe, roared loudly on his horses, warning his soldiers not to kill people at will.

The big Han knights responded loudly, "No! ”

On the periphery of the Wulu tribe, there is a simple wall, and at this moment, there are more than 20 Hun soldiers standing in front of the wall, staring blankly at Huo Qubing who is galloping and the 10,000 imposing and armored big men behind him.

The "Han" Huns guarding the walled wall didn't even finish their words, and hundreds of feather arrows fell from the sky and killed them.

"Boom!" Huo Qubing took the lead in rushing open the gate of the wall of the Wulu tribe, and at the moment when he broke in, the corpse of a Hun soldier with several arrows in his body fell from the sky on the wall and fell to the ground.

Because the gate of the Xiongnu wall can only accommodate three horsemen at the same time, the Han army elite cavalry waiting behind can't stand it, so

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The sound of several war horses crashing through the wooden wall sounded one after another.

Under the leadership of Zhang Taishu and Fu Duogao Buzhi and others, the Han elite rode brute force to level the fence and wall of the Wulu tribe, and rushed into the Wuyu tribe from all directions.

The unsuspecting Wudi tribe was torn through the fragile protective cover by the Han elite cavalry in the blink of an eye, and at this moment, the Wulu tribe, which covers an area of more than ten miles, is full of Han army cavalry charging figures.

The Hun cavalry, who were still asleep, heard the strange noise coming from outside the tent and just got out of bed, but before they could get out of the tent, a sharp spear stabbed in through the curtain of the tent, and even more, they directly overturned the whole tent with the spear in their hands.

"Tear Lala!" When men dressed as Hun soldiers appeared in the exposed tents, spears and broadswords fell from the sky above their heads.

Because the speed of the Han army was too fast, and the Wulu tribe didn't know the news that Huo Qubing led his troops into Hexi in advance, so as soon as the Han army first appeared, the entire Wuxi tribe was almost blinded, and within two minutes of the Han Xiaocai rushing into the camp, the Huns didn't react and found something.

It's not that they are stupid, but they can't believe that in the land west of the river, in front of their own homes, the Han army will appear quietly!

As a result, many Hun cavalrymen who were still napping were beheaded by the Han army.

The people of the Wulu tribe fled for their lives in a panic under the swords of the Han soldiers, and the die-hard loyalists of the Huns kept shouting to stop the men and horses after they came to their senses, preparing to counterattack the Han army.

The sound of people neighing and horses is endless.

At this moment, the Wuyu tribe was in chaos.
