Chapter 17 Encounter, the Huns committed the border!
In the late Warring States period, the Xiongnu had entered a slave society. Slave-owning nobles took advantage of the swift movement of cavalry and often penetrated deep into the Central Plains to harass and plunder the inland tribes, which were mainly agricultural.
The Central Plains were chaotic, and the Qin State was busy unifying the six countries, and each country did not have the energy to deal with the Xiongnu in the north, and the Xiongnu took the opportunity to move south, reoccupy many parts of the northern border counties, and used Henan (present-day Inner Mongolia and Hetao regions) as a stronghold, directly threatening Xianyang, the political center of the Qin Dynasty.
In the thirty-second year, the First Emperor inspected the northern border. Because Lu Shengjin, a local priest of Yan, dedicated a book called "Hu Ye, the Dead Qin", after the first emperor returned to Xianyang, he sent the general Meng Tian to send 100,000 troops to attack the Hu Xiongnu in the north.
On the galloping road north to Shangjun, 100,000 Qin soldiers marched forward in formation, like a black-armored dragon, endlessly.
At this time, it was already the third pole of the sun, and I heard a low trumpet sound. Li Mu's face was relieved, and he raised his voice and said, "Stop! ”
The Iron Eagle Warrior Phalanx, dressed in ink armor and light armor, stopped in an orderly manner.
"The whole army rests!"
At this time, an officer galloped past with a horse, constantly shouting orders.
With a long sigh of relief, Li Mu took out the sheepskin bag on his waist and drank wildly, and finally rested.
In the phalanx of the heavily armored soldiers of the Chinese army, after Meng Rui ordered his soldiers to rest, he beat his horse and came to the front of the Iron Eagle Ruishi phalanx where Li Mu was.
turned over and dismounted and came to Li Mu's face.
"Tired, there is still half a day's journey, and we will arrive at the place." Meng Rui also pulled out the sheepskin bag as he spoke, and took a sip of the mash. It's summer and autumn, and the weather is getting cooler. The northern grasslands are very cold, and the so-called "Hudi is frost in September", so the moromi is always used to drive away the cold.
"It's okay, you can rest well when you get to Upper County!" Li Mu said with a smile.
Hearing this, Meng Rui shook his head and said with a serious face: "Don't take it lightly, the summer and autumn season is officially the season for the Huns to go south and plunder!" Maybe we're going to be in the fight. ”
Li Mu frowned when he heard this, the season when the Huns committed the border, and the fact that this place was not much away from Shangjun, it seemed that he had to be more careful.
As if he had seen through what Li Mu was thinking, Meng Rui said: "I came to you for this matter, you Iron Eagle Rui are matched with horses, I want you to patrol around the army more, I am afraid that there will be Hun scouts." ”
When Li Mu heard this, he frowned and pondered. According to the understanding of later generations, the northern attack on the Xiongnu was divided into two stages.
The first stage was to send troops in the summer and autumn season, sweeping the Xiongnu tribes in the Hetao area, and driving the Xiongnu in the Hetao area to the north of the Yellow River before the Xiongnu army could react. If they were to be aware of it in advance and then assemble a large army, it would be a tough battle.
Thinking of this, Li Mu nodded and said, "I'll arrange it." ”
"That's good, I won't bother you anymore, let's rest as soon as possible."
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Meng Rui didn't say much, turned around and got on his horse and left.
The time was short, and after resting and cooking, the army continued to march. After Li Mu also obtained Fusu's consent, he personally led a group of Iron Eagle guards to patrol around the army.
The autumn wind is bleak, and the eyes are full of green and yellow.
Li Mu and the Iron Eagle Ruishi of Yitun came to a forest to rest.
Not far away is a village, it is the harvest season, and the leaders are working in the fields. The joy of the harvest hangs on the face of every Qiantou.
At this time, a sound came, and about 100 Huns came out from a distance.
They rushed over with excited shouts, or brandished scimitars in their hands, or drew their bows and threw them, constantly slaughtering the toiling heads.
From time to time, miserable cries rang out, and bright red blood was sprinkled all over the fields.
Looking at the scene in front of them, the Huns seemed to be even more excited, they laughed, screamed and began to slaughter more frantically.
Li Mu, who was resting in the forest, saw the scene in front of him, and his eyes instantly became bloodshot!
"It's the Huns!"
At this time, the Iron Eagle Ruishi who was resting next to him also discovered the enemy's situation.
"Get on the horse! Prepare for battle! Between gritting his teeth, Li Mu gave an order.
With the order given, fifty Iron Eagle warriors quickly led their horses out of the forest and prepared for battle.
Li Mushen took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and said to the commander beside him: "You report the situation here to General Meng!" ”
"No!"
After seeing the commander leave, Li Mu led the horse out of the forest, turned over on the horse, carefully observed the enemy situation, and found that the Xiongnu were very arrogant, and directly scattered and looted, and did not set up scout troops.
Seeing Li Mu here, his eyes lit up, and he raised the spear in his hand.
"Raise the flag! Kill me with the Blade Array! ”
As he spoke, Li Mu charged up, followed by an old soldier carrying the dragon flag, and four iron eagle warriors guarding the flag.
The rest of the crowd formed a formation and followed closely behind.
Where the flag goes! Although tens of millions of people have gone to me!
The flag is here, the array is there! The array is there, and the people are there!
"Kill!"
As the speed of the charge accelerated, fifty Iron Eagle Sharps showed their hideous fangs!
Under the influence of the bilateral Maden and Takahashi saddles, the lancers, all dressed in heavy armor, began to write their own legend in this era.
The rumbling horse's hooves were like thunder, and the shock of the charge was like a dragon turning over.
The Xiongnu nobles discovered the heavy cavalry led by Li Mu, hurriedly gathered their soldiers, and tried to organize an effective defense, but unfortunately it was in vain.
Li Mu, who took the lead, took the lead in receiving the enemy, and the spear in his hand stabbed a Hun like lightning.
"Get up for me!"
As he spoke, Li Mu picked up his spear, and the Huns flew out directly and crashed into the Hun battle formation in the rear.
The already very scattered Hun battle array was instantly broken through a gap.
Without a trace of hesitation, Li Muting stepped forward immediately, and the spear in his hand was either stabbed or picked, swept or collapsed. At one time, several people were killed.
The Iron Eagle Ruishi behind him also took advantage of the situation to kill in, the horses fought with people, and people borrowed horsepower, and for a time the Hun battle array was chiseled into a crossing.
quickly hit the horse and turned around, and Li Mu shot back again.
The overlord threw the spear and nodded, and the pear blossom bowed in four suits.
The tricks are not far from the key points, and the style grabs the head of the enemy!
The Iron Eagle Ruishi who followed closely behind was even more of a group of tigers and wolves. I saw that they took the enemy's life between stabbing and provoking, and after the collapse, they shocked the enemy.
Li Mu, who had once again cut through the enemy's formation, looked back and saw that the Huns had lost their armor and fled with their backs.
"Fish Scale Array! Cover up! ”
With the order given, all the Iron Eagle Sharps quickly turned into a fish scale formation, and charged in waves.
Slash, slash! Thrust, heartbreak!
In the midst of the screams and wails of the Huns, the Iron Eagle Ruishi led by Li Mu was like a thunderbolt sweeping the hole, beating the Huns.
Li Mu, who rushed to the forefront, had just killed a Hun and looked up to see that a Hun wearing special clothes not far away was fleeing in embarrassment under the protection of seven or eight Hun soldiers.
"Hun nobles?"
Thinking of this, Li Mu hung the spear on the saddle, removed the Bajun strong bow on his back, and pulled the bow like a full moon with an arrow!
"Give it to me!"
With Li Mu's roar, Chang Yu was like lightning, directly taking the hearts of the Xiongnu nobles.
With a scream, the Hun nobles cried for their lives.
"Expand the search, don't let a Hun go!"
"No!"
The sun is setting, and the twilight is red.
The battle is over! Li Mu, who came back from the horse, looked at the dilapidated fields, and the cottages full of plain villages were a little speechless for a while.
Great Qin has been suffering from the Huns for a long time!
