When the defenders of Mayi led by Jin She, and the captain of Huben led by Liji, each converged towards the center of the battlefield from the two directions of Mayi and Wuzhousai, the main force of the Xiongnu headquarters led by the Xiongnu Zuoxian Wang Zhuo Ji Congee appeared on the knee side of the battlefield, a high ground backed by a cliff.

The reason for choosing this highland, the porridge, naturally has its own considerations.

First of all, it was the battles of the past few days that made the range of more than 150 paces of the defenders of Mayi show in front of the eyes of the Hun and every Hun knight.

Compared with the Han army's ultra-long range of more than 150 paces, and probably more than 150 paces, the main force of the Huns under the command of the Han army was more than a little bit worse.

- Ordinary Hun cavalry, even if they stopped their horses, then jumped off their horses, squatted down on the ground to draw their bows and arrows, and most of the arrows they shot could only reach a range of one hundred and eighty paces;

Even if they are 'good at shooting' the civilized grassland, and use the longbow as the tribal totem and faith, most of them can only guarantee that the arrows shot can reach more than 100 steps, and the range of no more than 120 steps at most.

And the long-range gap between Lou Fu's archers and the 'at least 150 steps' of the Mayi Han army is the key to the problem that needs to be solved.

In order to smooth out this difference in range of at least thirty paces, it is necessary to switch the strategic topography of the enemy and the enemy;

Specifically, it is changed from the previous situation where the Han army condescended to shoot on the city wall, and the Lou Fu Bow Rider raised his head outside the city to throw it, to the following: Lou Fu Bow Cavalry shot at a high place, and the Han Army threw at a low place.

Only in this way can we eliminate the strengths of one side and the other, and flatten the range of long-range fire between the enemy and us as much as possible, so that we will not be like a child whose head is held by an adult, waving his fists and kicks vigorously, but he will not reach the other party at all.

In addition to long-range firepower considerations, there are also enemy and enemy troops, which also prompted the Dou Ji Congee to choose this high ground for temporary stationing after leading his army out of Mayi.

- Because the cavalry under the command of the Han army can pose the greatest threat to the infantry of the Han army, which is the impact!

Previously, the Han army could not shrink in Mayi, and the Hun cavalry led by Ji Ji Congee could not give full play to the advantages of this class of troops;

But after the two sides opened up their positions in the field, this advantage of the troop class had to be put to good use.

All in all: after this war with the Han people, he has no teacher, and vaguely understands what an important strategic advantage the Han people often say 'condescending'.

Of course, there is also a crucial reason why the Porridge chose this high ground backed by a cliff over other high grounds······

"How?"

"That trail, can you really go to the grassland?"

Inside the king's tent, the Han merchant on the side hurriedly stepped forward: "Tu Hao, don't hesitate anymore!" ”

"That path is the one I have taken in and out of the border with goods for so many years, and I have walked countless times;"

"Take that path, Tu Hao can take his warriors back to the grassland!"

Han Shang's eager words provoked the rest of the leaders to look sideways, and even the eyes of several generations were faintly surrendered to the gloomy face of the porridge.

- There is no need to continue this battle······

Ma Yi can't be attacked, Wuzhou Sai is lost again, and now, the big guy can't even go back to the clouds!

and not mention the goods and slaves that were obtained by breaking through the clouds before;

Being able to bring these tens of thousands of warriors under his command back to the grassland, and then find a way to survive this winter, is the top priority that the leaders care about at the moment.

As for fighting to the death with the Han people in this wilderness, in this highland, or even on the highlands backed by cliffs, as the Sui Ji Congee said?

Don't make a fuss······

Everyone came to attack the Han people, and they didn't really have violent tendencies!

The reason why everyone led the army south was just to grab something from the Han-Hungarian border so that they could return to the grassland for the winter.

Right now, the things that were grabbed can't be taken back, and the grassland can't be returned, who can still have the heart to continue fighting?

Feeling the gaze that was cast at him, his face became more and more serious.

This is the reason why the porridge chose this high ground instead of other places.

- Between this highland, and the cliff behind the highland, there is a natural plank path that can accommodate two people walking side by side!

That plank road is the back road left by the porridge for himself.

Of course, the current situation is not enough to support the susceptible porridge and reveal the existence of this plank road to everyone under his command.

If you want to leave safely and bring as many people back to the grassland as possible, you need to win a battle!

Only in this way can we win precious time for the tens of thousands of cavalry under his command to pass through the plank road and return to the grassland;

Only in this way can the porridge after returning to the grassland not lose the trust of the Xiongnu tribes because of the loss of this war.

Because the Xiongnu are not the Han family;

The Xiongnu were not a centralized and unified regime, but a nomadic regime with a loose tribal alliance system.

In order to successfully complete the single throne left by his father, what must be done before leaving······

"I see."

"Sir, you can go down."

"If Mr. thinks that I can take him back to the grassland, then Mr. will stay for the time being;"

"If you don't think that I can take Mr. back to the grassland, then Mr. can leave and find a way to survive in his own way······"

The deep voice only made the Han merchant more urgent, and he was about to say something more when he opened his mouth;

But when the cold gaze of the porridge swept over Han Shang's face, intentionally or unintentionally, the Han Shang could only forcibly swallow the words that were brought to his mouth and forcibly swallowed them back into his stomach.

Qiang settled his mind, and saw the Han merchant take three steps back and bow to the porridge.

"Contemptible, he is a mercenary businessman;"

"Tu Lu's letter is serious, so that the contemptible people are grateful to Dade, but they don't dare to stay in this killing place."

"Since Tu Hao is not in a hurry to leave, then the contemptible person, take the first step."

"When Tu Hao returns to the grassland with the warriors under his command, the contemptible people will definitely find Tu Hao and continue to serve Tu Lu······"

The Han merchant said this with a weak heart, and then bowed again, and then under the complicated gaze of everyone in the tent, he left the big tent of King Zuoxian, who was making porridge.

And after Han Shang left, the Aries King, who was closest to the porridge, couldn't help but step forward with a worried face.

"Tu Luxury;"

"The Han people in Mayi City haven't found us yet."

"Let go of the Han man who betrayed his people, in case ······"

The vague reminder only provoked the porridge to shake his head slowly, and then put an extremely heavy news in front of the heads of the ministry.

"The Han people in Mayi City have discovered our scheme;"

"Jin She, the captain of the Han people, has already led tens of thousands of Han troops in Mayi City towards us."

"And Wuzhou Sai;"

"——The Li Ji of Wuzhou Sai has also taken the elite troops that recaptured Wuzhou Sai before, and is approaching us from the other direction······"

Listening to the low tone of the porridge, the heads of the various departments in the tent only lowered their heads lonely.

At this moment, the leaders of the tribes who were gathering in the king's tent, in this war, could be said to be 'how arrogant they were when they came, and how embarrassed they were when they left';

Let's just say that at this moment, if these few people take one out casually, they can make all the tribes of the grassland kneel and prostrate on the ground, and they don't dare to look up at the tribal leaders and heroes on the grassland!

After conquering Mayi, how complacent and how 'ambitious'?

——In those days, among these leaders, some people even personally found Zuo Xian Wang's porridge and persuaded him to move in the direction of Chang'an on the grounds of 'Han people are cowardly'!

But now?

These heroes on the grassland and brave men in the hearts of various tribes bowed their heads lonely in this king's tent, which was only a few zhang square······

"Tu Luxury;"

"Let's go······"

"Then Han Shang is right."

"If we don't leave, when the Han people look for us, even if we want to leave, we will definitely not be able to leave······

After being silent for a long time, it was finally a few days ago, when the Aries King, who had just been given a 'tear stain' by the porridge, broke the peace in the king's tent with a persuasion full of weakness.

Then, as if he was afraid of misunderstanding, the Aries King hurriedly added: "Tu Hao will go first!" ”

"Behind the Warrior Hall of my Aries Department, cover Tu Hao's return to the grassland!!"

Hearing the words of the Aries King, a little warmth swelled up on the gloomy face of the Aries Porridge.

In the tent, when the rest of the leaders heard this, they all cast their eyes of approval on the back of the Aries King.

——As the troika of the Huns Shan Yu: the troika of the 'King James Order', Lou Fu, Zhelan, and Bai Yang, naturally have their own stunts;

For example, the warriors of the Lou Fu Department are very good at archery;

There are even times when you can shoot accurately on the back of a stationary horse, or even on a slow-moving horse!

Another example is the warriors of the Zhelan tribe, almost everyone is crazy;

Even in the Xiongnu Division, which is 'good at dismounting hand-to-hand combat', the Zhilan Department still has become a nightmare for all the tribes of the grassland by virtue of the characteristics of never retreating and never being cowardly!

Compared with the first two, the 'stunt' of the Aries Department is obviously a little special.

- Different from the Hun headquarters who are good at hand-to-hand combat, as well as the Zhelan people who are better at hand-to-hand combat, and the Lou Annoying people who are good at long-distance accurate shooting, the stunt of the Aries people is called 'returning horse shooting'.

As the name suggests, it is a special combat method in the war of steppe cavalry vs cavalry, first pretending to scatter and fleeing, and then turning back and shooting an arrow on the way the enemy is chasing after him.

Such a special combat method can be described as unique in the Xiongnu;

Except for the Aries, no other Xiongnu tribe would adopt such a way of fighting.

- Because it's really a bit embarrassing to 'pretend to be scattered and flee', and it's too easy to become 'really scattered and flee'.

But at this moment, the special combat skills of the Aries Department made King Zhelan and Lou Fu Wang Zhebei have some different thoughts.

"After this war, there will definitely be a war between our Great Xiongnu and the Han people."

"The war with the Han people requires the death charge of my Zhilan Department / the accurate cavalry shooting of my Lou Annoying Department;"

"As for the 'return shot' of the Aries Department, it is dispensable······"

Thinking like this, Zhelantu and Zhebei looked at the eyes of the porridge, and they also looked forward to it more and more.

In the eyes of these two people, Aries' proposal is very good!

After leaving the White Aries Palace, by the way, through the famous stunt of 'returning horse shooting', the Han people can walk in this area for a few more days, and you can win enough time for the retreat of other troops!

As for the Aries King and his two 10,000 horsemen······

"The order of the grassland will allow the Great Huns to have the ······ of the next Aries King"

"As long as the Aries Department is still there, the Aries cavalry will not disappear······"

Regarding the tacit thoughts in the hearts of Zhelantu and Zhebe, he didn't know anything about it.

After hearing the proposal of the Aries King, 'I will stay behind the palace', the porridge has never made up his mind, and finally settled down at this moment.

"I'm the Xiongnu Zuoxian King!"

"The son of the great Maudun Shan Yu!"

"I must not let tens of thousands of Aries warriors be buried in this land of Han people for the sake of my own life!"

A few muffs without warning provoked Zhelantu and Jebe to hurry back to their senses and cast their worried eyes on the porridge;

But at this moment, the porridge was firmly on the ground, with a touch of inexplicable solemnity, and an incomparably trusting sense of responsibility and determination······

"—If we want to retreat to the grassland, we must defeat the Han people once!"

"If we want to defeat the Han people, we must unite tightly and mobilize every warrior under our command to participate in the fierce battle!"

"Only in this way can we have time, taking advantage of the time for the Han people to converge their formations and rectify their military morale, and retreat from the path behind the hill to the grassland!"

The extremely shocking cry was finally Zhilantu and Jebe, who secretly hid the abacus in their hearts to the bottom of their hearts, and fell to the ground on one knee firmly.

——As the porridge said: Occupying this height, the main force of the Xiongnu can fight with the Han people!

In order to ensure the safety of the retreat, as well as the reputation after returning to the grassland, it is also necessary to fight with the Han people!

"Tu Lu!"

"Give the order!"

"The warriors of my Zhilan Department have long been eager for the taste of blood, and they have long wanted to taste the blood of the Han people, what is the taste!"

"The warriors of the Lou Fu Department have 10,000 longbows, and they are waiting for Tu Lu's dispatch!"

"Nine thousand tips from the Aries Department, always ready to fight for Tu Luxury!!"

As the heads of these three tribes, as well as the leaders of the Jinshan tribe and several other slave tribes, stepped forward to express their attitudes, the grim color on the face of the porridge finally gradually turned into a raging fighting spirit.

But the porridge ignores an extremely fatal key problem.

- The Han people who came from the direction of Wuzhou were obviously only 5,000 people;

Why were the 5,000 Han Chinese, especially the infantry, able to kill and capture the 2,000 Hun cavalry in Wuzhou almost without damage······
