Chapter 418: The war in the southeast, the defeat of the Xiongnu
When the time is near.
The warm sun is gradually moving westward.
Minghu Mountain on the southeast defense line of the Zhou army.
Accompanied by the general Li Ling's commanding military orders one after another.
The 100 people who lined up on both sides of his body, even if they exerted all their strength, gave orders in unison!
"The general has an order!"
"The six uncles and the seventh uncles hold on to their shields! Don't take half a step back!"
"The Eighth and Ninth Uncles immediately brought gold juice and boiling water to meet the enemy!"
"The third, fourth, and fifth uncles immediately retreat in an orderly manner to rest!"
"The tenth, eleventh, and twelfth soldiers are now arrayed forward! Prepare to meet the enemy!"
The hundreds of people shouted in unison, almost with all their might, like a thunderclap.
The explosion resounded in the southeast defense line of the Zhou army, which was full of wails, roars, arrows breaking through the air, and shields colliding.
Just as the hundreds of people were shouting and giving orders.
The Huns at the forefront withstood the rain of arrows, and finally stepped within fifty steps of the southeast defense line of the Zhou army.
With the power of a horse's bow, a distance of fifty paces from the bottom to the top cannot be fully struck.
But it also brought a lot of trouble to Li Ling's division on the southeast defense line of the Zhou army in Minghu Mountain.
"The Sixth Uncle obeys the order!"
"Seven uncles obey the order!"
Kneeling on one knee and squatting on the ground, the two hundred soldiers of the sixth and seventh uncles who were holding the shield in their hands heard the words that their already green arms were more than a few points fierce again.
Countless arrows slammed into his shield like a rainstorm.
The two hundred Zhou soldiers who were slapped turned pale.
"Eight uncles obey the order!"
"Nine uncles obey the order!"
When the two hundred soldiers who had been boiling gold juice and boiling water at the rear of the battle line, they quickly poured all the gold juice and boiling water into the wooden barrels.
Then he picked up the wooden barrel as he did during the exercise, picked up the water scoop and quickly inserted it into the formation, waiting for the Hun forward to rush to the front.
For a time, there was a disgusting pungent smell everywhere on the southeast defense line of the Zhou army in Minghu Mountain.
However, the sixth and seventh uncles who had staggered with the eighth and ninth uncles did not have the slightest disgust on their faces.
On the contrary, his eyes were full of high hope.
"Ten uncles obey!"
"Eleven Uncles obey!"
"Twelve Uncles obey!"
Wait for the last order of the 100 people to pass on.
The 10th, 11th, and 12th, three hundred soldiers, who had been resting for a long time, immediately marched forward to meet the enemy with spears in hand.
On the other hand, the first and second uncles who had been removed before took the initiative to replace the eighth and ninth uncles and continued to boil gold juice and boiling water.
The thirteenth and fourteenth uncles and soldiers were still sitting in place, resting and waiting for military orders!
It's too late, it's too soon.
Just as the eighth and ninth soldiers arrived behind the shield hand with boiling gold juice.
The Hun vanguard soldiers had already marched another twenty paces.
So far.
The two armies of Zhou and Hungary on the southeast defense line were already only thirty paces away.
At such a close distance, the madness and hideous color on the faces of the Hun vanguard soldiers were already completely visible.
See here.
The eighth and ninth uncles all leaned down, and their hands clenched the water scoop that fell into the barrel.
After more than 100 breaths.
The third, fourth, and fifth uncles who kept throwing arrows in their hands and retreating in an orderly manner finally retreated to the rear of the battle line.
The 10th, 11th, and 12th uncles have also been filled.
Meanwhile.
The Hun vanguard soldiers marched another twenty steps.
At this point, the distance between the soldiers of Zhou and Hungary on the southeast defense line of Minghu Mountain was only ten steps.
And it's still shrinking.
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
"The Huns of the straight lady thief go faster!"
"Grandpa said anything today, I have to let you taste the taste of!"
"The Huns of the straight lady thief!"
Behind the sixth, seventh, shielding hands.
The eighth uncle, who was full of meat, stared at the Hun forwards who kept screaming and rushing forward through the small gaps deliberately left behind.
The mouth never stopped whispering angrily.
"Eight steps!"
"Seven steps!"
"Six steps!"
"Five steps!"
"Four steps!"
"Brethren of the Eight Uncles! Rise up and face the enemy! This group of straight thieves Huns!"
When the Hun vanguard soldiers marched to four steps in front of the formation.
The eighth uncle, who was full of meat, immediately roared.
He quickly stood up from behind his shield.
Holding the tied water scoop with both hands, he shook hands.
Immediately, with all his strength, he spilled the golden juice in the scoop forward.
Seeing this, the eighth and ninth uncles all got up angrily, holding the golden juice and spilling it forward.
For a while, Li Lingbu's shield hand was surrounded by boiling white mist.
Its body is filled with the extremely strong pungent and disgusting atmosphere.
Say it's too late, then it's too fast.
At the moment when a boiling white mist rose around Li Lingbu's shield hand.
Li Ling's sword and shield hand was three or four steps away, and the Hun forward soldier was in the middle of the stroke, and there was an extremely terrible scream in an instant.
"Hahaha!"
"Come again!"
"Hurry up and move the straight!"
Li Lingbu's eighth and ninth uncles heard the terrible screams of the Huns, and their bodies and minds were as happy as hearing the sound of heaven.
Immediately, he urged again and again.
As for the shield in the hands of the Hun vanguards?
The shield can block swords and guns, as well as arrows and stray arrows.
But it can't stop the boiling gold juice like a raging storm.
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
"Straight mothers and thieves use a little force! Don't just let the front ones eat! Take care of the back, too!"
Seeing that the Hun forward formation was chaotic.
The eighth and ninth uncles instantly showed ecstasy.
Meanwhile.
On a raised rock behind the southeastern defense line of the Zhou army.
Seeing this scene, Li Ling, the general of the expedition to the north, couldn't help but have a flash of joy on his face.
"Drumming!"
"All the soldiers cover up and kill a hundred steps!"
Li Ling, who knew that the fighter plane was fleeting, decisively ordered all the soldiers to take the initiative to meet the enemy.
"Boom!"
"Boom! Boom!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"The general has an order!"
"All the soldiers cover up and kill a hundred steps!"
"The general has an order!"
"All the soldiers cover up and kill a hundred steps!"
"The general has an order!"
"All the soldiers cover up and kill a hundred steps!"
Li Ling's voice fell, and the sound of war drums and the voice of the 100-person pro-Wei Bo herald instantly spread throughout the southeast defense line.
The sixth and seventh uncles immediately stood up when they heard the order.
Immediately, under the organization of their respective Bo, Tun, Shi, Wu Chang and others, they moved forward and rushed straight to the Xiongnu forward, which was still in chaos.
The 10th, 11th, and 12th soldiers lined up with guns and followed closely behind.
The two hundred soldiers of the eighth and ninth uncles lifted the wooden barrels with forty percent of the gold juice and boiling water left, and quickly interspersed them between the gaps in the military formation.
Wait for the opportunity to splash the gold juice and boiling water in your hands.
Whoever is splashed with boiling gold juice or boiling water.
Even if you are lucky enough to escape the pursuit of the sword and shield men and pikemen.
It also cannot escape the fatal wounds caused by wound ulceration and suppuration.
It is no exaggeration to say that anyone who is splashed with boiling gold juice on the door, hands and other places that are not covered by heavy clothing.
In the end, they all died.
"One and two are holding shields
Garrison!"
"Thirteen and fourteen uncles lined up with guns!"
Just in front, seven hundred soldiers frantically pursued the Hun forward.
And continue to expand the results of the battle.
Li Ling, who was standing at the rear of the battle line, immediately ordered the soldiers to garrison again.
"Uncle obeys!"
"Second Uncle obeys!"
"Thirteen uncles obey!"
"Fourteen Uncles obey!"
Hearing this, the four soldiers ordered a quick formation to reconstruct the defensive line.
Meanwhile.
The Xiongnu vanguard soldiers retreated in defeat after defeat under the pursuit of Li Ling's 700 soldiers.
For a time, it was quite a rout.
"Don't stop the drums of war!"
"The front army will chase another two hundred paces!"
Seeing this, Li Ling immediately ordered again.
The words fell.
Li Ling quickly looked at the three hundred archers who were smearing medicinal wine on each other and rubbing their arms.
"Third uncle! Four uncles! Five!"
"But there's still the strength to fight?!"
Li Ling asked in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
"The general's subordinates can draw at least six more bows!"
"General! My subordinates can draw at least eight more bows!"
"I'm nine bows!"
"I've got ten bows!"
"General! Three uncles, please fight!"
"General! The fourth uncle also asks for war!"
"And our five uncles! The fifth uncle also asks for war!"
When the three hundred archers heard this, their battle spirit immediately boiled.
After being suppressed for so long, finally ushered in the opportunity to beat the water dogs, and a few people were willing to give up.
"Good!"
"Immediately go forward to meet the enemy!"
"Immediately change the bow of the horse and move forward to meet the enemy!"
Li Ling waved his hand and immediately ordered in a deep voice.
"Obey!"
"Obey!"
"Obey!"
When one hundred and fifty archers heard this, they immediately roared and galloped forward with their bows.
Another hundred and fifty archers, having changed their bows, galloped after them.
The 700 soldiers on the front line were helped by 300 archers, and the morale instantly raised loud again and again.
The Hun forward, which was already close to being defeated, was completely chaotic in an instant.
For a time, he died from the trampling of his fellow clansmen and those who accidentally fell from the mountain.
The number of them far exceeded those who died with swords, guns and arrows in the hands of Li Ling's soldiers.
"Three hundred more steps!"
Standing on a raised rock behind the battle line.
Li Ling, who had always been looking around intently at the battle situation, immediately ordered another three hundred steps to chase again!
The words fell.
Li Ling once again looked intently at the battle situation of the entire southeast defense line.
"Mingjin retreats!"
"Retreat in order!"
"One uncle! Second uncle! Thirteen Uncles! Fourteen Uncles are ready to answer!"
When the corporal was about to pursue to a distance of 600 paces from the defensive line.
Li Ling had no love of war, and immediately ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.
Even if the Xiongnu side at this time had been completely defeated by a thousand soldiers under his command.
Li Ling also did not have the slightest love for war.
It's not that they don't want to continue to expand their gains.
I really can't!
First, it is due to geographical advantages.
The terrain 500 paces away from the battle line of the southeast defense line can already accommodate more than 500 soldiers fighting side by side.
At 600 paces, it can accommodate at least 600 soldiers to fight side by side.
At this point, Li Lingbu had already lost his ground.
If it is more than 600 paces.
Li Lingbu will inevitably lose the momentum of the geographical advantage.
If the Xiongnu organized a counteroffensive at this time, their troops would inevitably suffer heavy losses.
The second is because of physical strength.
After dozens of baptisms of war.
Although the remaining 1,500 soldiers of Li Ling's department can already be called the elite of the elite.
But even in the elite army, after months of repression and lack of food and grass.
Its combat power will inevitably be compromised.
And Li Ling, who was born in a family of generals and is the leader of this army, is naturally very clear about the current situation and limits of his subordinates.
If it weren't for the defeat of the Huns, it would have been a foregone conclusion.
Li Ling would never let his soldiers pursue him more than 400 paces.
"Woo~"
"Woo~"
"The general has an order!"
"Retreat in order!"
"One uncle! Second uncle! Thirteen Uncles! Fourteen Uncles are ready to answer!"
Li Ling's voice fell.
The sound of the horn of the troops and the herald of the hundred people were instantaneous.
"Uncle obeys!"
"Second Uncle obeys!"
"Thirteen uncles obey!"
"Fourteen Uncles obey!"
When the four men of the defense line heard the order, they immediately responded in unison.
When the military order is quickly transmitted to the ears of the front-line soldiers.
The thousands of soldiers on the front line are reluctant and unwilling in their hearts.
But in the end, he was ordered to withdraw in an orderly manner.
"The first, second, thirteenth, and fourteenth uncles were stationed for two quarters of an hour."
"Two quarters of an hour later, the ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth will take over."
"Eight uncles retreat five hundred steps back and make a fire to make rice!"
"The sixth and seventh uncles immediately searched for rocks, stakes, and war booties within 500 paces of the battle line."
"The third, fourth, and fifth uncles immediately rest in place."
After all the front-line soldiers are withdrawn.
Li Ling, who was standing on the raised rock, looked up at the sunset on the horizon, and then ordered.
At this time, the Xiongnu army had retreated at least a thousand paces.
It was precisely for this reason that Li Lingfang ordered a search for the mountain rocks, wooden stakes, bows, arrows, blades and other trophies that he had thrown before.
"Obey!"
"Obey!"
"Obey!"
When the soldiers heard this, they immediately replied loudly.
"The uncles will immediately check the casualties and hand them over to me."
Li Ling took a wooden chair handed by his confidant Li Zhong, nodded slightly, and then ordered again in a deep voice.
"Obey!"
When the uncles heard this, they immediately clasped their fists and responded.
The words fell.
The first, second, thirteenth, and fourteenth uncles and four uncles walked one after another to the raised rock.
Among the four of these.
1. 2. Earl throws rocks and stakes.
The thirteenth and fourteenth uncles did not participate in the war.
Because of this, none of the four uncles were injured.
Not much.
One, two, thirteen, fourteen, and four uncles left the raised rock.
The second, fourth, and fifth uncles walked one after another to the raised rock.
All three of them were archers.
The third uncle was lightly wounded eleven people, three were seriously wounded, and five were killed in battle.
Four uncles were slightly wounded nine people, six were seriously wounded, and two were killed in the battle.
Five uncles were lightly wounded 14 people, 2 were seriously wounded, and 7 were killed in battle.
Most of the casualties were inflicted by the Huns when they traveled within sixty or seventy paces.
A small number of casualties were suffered during the pursuit.
Nearly two quarters of an hour later.
The rest of the uncles came one after another.
Participated in the war of the Twelve Bozhong.
The heaviest casualties were the eight and ninth uncles who were responsible for meeting the enemy with gold juice and boiling water.
More than 40 people were seriously wounded and killed in battle.
When the Eighth and Ninth Uncles stood up to meet the enemy with gold juice and boiling water.
It was also exposed to the arrows of the Huns.
Therefore, the eight and ninth soldiers suffered the heaviest casualties.
This is followed by the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth uncles who engage the enemy with spears.
The number of serious injuries and battle deaths of these three uncles is more than 30.
After the uncles left the raised rock one after another.
Li Ling, who was sitting on the wooden chair, had an inconspicuous face.
But his heart is extraordinarily solemn.
It's just the first round of head-to-head matches.
His department has reduced its staff by more than 100 people.
And this is still a reduction in personnel with geographical advantages.
One can imagine how fierce and crazy the Xiongnu offensive was.
According to incomplete estimates.
Although his troops killed and wounded more than 1,000 enemy troops this time.
But don't forget.
Mobei is the home of the Huns.
It can be replenished almost anytime and anywhere.
However, the Zhou army on Minghu Mountain suffered one casualty, one less.
