0966 Providence kills it
Two days passed quickly, and when the time came for the attack, the army arrived at the place where it had already been chosen, and marched north in batches.
He Ruodun led a thousand elite cavalry as the vanguard of the army, and set out for the enemy camp first. In order to hide people's eyes and ears a little, this group of men and horses is mostly composed of Xianbei soldiers in the army, and they do not carry any weapons and flags with too obvious characteristics, and their gray faces do not look much different from the Zhuhu tribes living here.
The camp of the Turks is very large, and a large space is set aside for cattle, horses and livestock activities between the felt tents of some residents, and there are many people and horses themselves, so the whole camp is spread out in front of Yinshan Mountain for more than ten miles.
Such a camp setup is not conducive to a surprise attack, and if one is disturbed, the rest will be alerted quickly. Therefore, they can only disperse their troops and launch attacks at the same time, creating large-scale turmoil as much as possible, so that the other side does not know where the enemy is, and it is difficult to make an effective response in a hurry.
It was this tactic adopted by He Ruodun that his troops did not advance for a long time and encountered the scouts scattered around the camp, but these scouts were shot on the spot by He Ruodun and his own soldiers raising their hands and leading their bows, and then He Ruodun shouted "kill", and the thousand soldiers quickly rode their horses and scattered, and rushed towards the enemy camp on the opposite side in groups of three or five.
Due to the size of the camp, there were no restrictions such as fences outside these camps, and the Turkic soldiers in the camp fled in panic when they saw these enemies rushing towards the camp like wolves. The farther soldiers still had time to return to the tents to pick up their weapons and prepare to defend themselves against the counterattack under the organization of their respective leaders.
"Don't fight, scatter the thieves!"
As he galloped between the camps, he shouted loudly, "Their vanguard is not aimed at killing the enemy, but at storming the enemy camp to create chaos, once they stop to fight with the enemy, even if they are killed, but then they have to face the enemy counterattack in the enemy camp after they have been fully equipped, which can be described as more than worth the loss."
All the soldiers also knew what was at stake, and while galloping on their horses, they used their guns and lances in their hands or drew their bows to shoot to expel the enemy soldiers, even if they saw the enemy soldiers fall to the ground, they often only hit them with a hand, and even if they failed to finish off the opponent, they would not stop stopping to make up the sword. When they saw that the enemy was congregating, they would drive out the rebels and charge, so that the riots in the camp could continue and gradually spread inward.
As the charge in the camp deepened, a large number of cattle and horses appeared in the field of vision, seeing the panicked cattle and horses in the fence, He Ruodun's face suddenly brightened, and when he summoned the soldiers to gather at him, he rushed towards the stable.
People have some rationality, but once an animal is frightened, it is completely irrational, rampant and unrestrained. When He Ruodun led his troops to the outside of the stable, and cut down the fences with knives and lances, the cattle and horses in the stables immediately swarmed out and ran in a panic in the camp.
The camp was already chaotic, and with these rampaging beasts, it suddenly became more and more chaotic. Some of the Turkic soldiers who had already gathered in the distance were also scattered by the running herd, and they had to drag their weapons and run farther away.
The news of the attack on the camp soon reached the Great Tent of the Wooden Pole Khan, and when the Wooden Pole Khan heard the news, he was still a little incredulous for a while, because since the fall of Rouran, there had been no opponent in the entire steppe who dared to provoke and attack the Turks. Moreover, there are no powerful forces at the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain today, and some small and medium-sized tribes living here have already been cleaned up and obeyed.
However, at this time, the chaos and fighting in the outer camp were already faintly audible, and he couldn't help but believe it, so he hurriedly ordered to gather his troops to prepare for battle, and at the same time frowned and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that the Qi army is chasing and killing here? Quickly inform the Wei soldiers and let them move closer to our big tent, so as not to be scattered by the strong enemy!"
At this time, he did not realize who the real enemy was, and the heavy goods offered by the Western Wei Dynasty and the flattering gesture of Li Yunxin and others also made the wooden pole Khan not feel that the Western Wei had the courage to attack him, but also wanted to provide some protection for the Western Wei soldiers.
Yang Zhong and Li Yunxin and others in the camp have been in the camp for a long time
When the Turkic envoy came here on the order of the Khan, the soldiers in the battalion had already begun to put on armor, and when they heard the envoy convey the Khan's order, even Yang Zhong, who had always been silent, couldn't help but sigh and said: "Heaven will kill it, who can live!"
The elite Turkic forces were mainly concentrated near the Khan's tent, and with the order of the wooden pole khan, all the powerful chieftains gathered their troops and came to the Khan's tent in full gear to prepare for battle.
Life on the steppe was not peaceful, and now the Turks are rising rapidly, the season of the most abundant martial virtues, although the attack was very sudden, but the Khan's tent soon gathered tens of thousands of soldiers, although the scene is still a little noisy, but under the constraints of the efforts of their respective leaders, it can barely be regarded as orderly in chaos.
Moreover, with so many soldiers gathered here, even if a large number of enemies attacked, they could not imagine that they would be able to penetrate the Turkic battle formation in a short period of time and threaten the safety of the khan and the magnates. At this time, the wooden pole Khan was already calmly dispatching men and horses and assigning combat missions, and ordered his younger brother to control the land Khan Ashina Kutou to lead a group of men and horses to meet the enemy army in the place where the battle took place.
At the same time, Yang Zhong and others also led their troops to the vicinity of the Khan's tent under the guidance of the Turkic envoys. Unlike most of the Turks, who were armed with light cavalry, Yang Zhong did not let his subordinates ride war horses, but used them as infantry armor battle formations, and the sophisticated weapons such as armor lances that had been hidden before were also equipped at this time, and they were in a murderous battle.
When such an obviously different army came here, and it was so well armed, it immediately caused the uneasiness of the other Turkic soldiers, and they subconsciously opened a certain distance.
At this time, the Khan of the Wooden Pole was still communicating with his subordinates, and did not notice that the team that he thought needed to be protected had shown its fangs.
Despite being surrounded by a group of enemies, Yang Zhong and the soldiers did not have any fear on their faces, and the Turkic envoys did not continue to move forward after leading them to the outer position near the Great Tent, and they were still nearly a mile away from the position of the Wooden Pole Khan, and in the middle were the dense Turkic soldiers who were waiting for their horses.
At this time, as the wooden pole Khan gave another order, another Turkic brigade of 10,000 people left here and rushed to the battlefield. As this team left, a large gap suddenly appeared near the big tent.
"The Turkic thieves are rampant, betraying the alliance and blackmailing, and bullying our country! The army of Tang Gong has arrived, and all the soldiers will follow me to kill the enemy and serve the country!"
Taking advantage of the fact that the enemy formation had not yet adjusted and filled the gap, Yang Zhong waved his arm, and even waved the big lance in his hand towards the nearest Turkic formation, and Li Yunxin and other soldiers in the rear also waved their weapons to kill the enemy.
Suddenly, the elbows and armpits changed, and the Turkic army formation suddenly became chaotic, especially the Turkic army that was suddenly attacked suddenly became scattered, and the guards around the khan also stepped forward one after another, and retreated to the side to protect the khan.
"These Wei dogs dare to deceive me! Kill, kill all these dog thieves!"
When the Khan saw that he had lured the wolf into his house and had taken the initiative to lure the enemy to his side, he was furious and shouted loudly, ordering his troops to enter the front and kill these bold enemies.
The Turkic soldiers near the Great Tent reacted in a timely manner, and although they were attacked by surprise, they quickly adjusted, and several Turkic chieftains led their own troops to charge towards the Wei army.
Yang Zhong dared to attack the enemy directly within the army, and naturally it was not just a reckless recklessness with a bloody bravery, seeing that the enemy army was surrounding and killing, he moved his troops closer to him and formed a solid battle formation, and the spears on both sides were like a hedgehog covered with spikes.
And Yang Zhong withstood the fierce enemy offensive in front, and the big lance in his hand continued to dance and carve out a bloody path in the enemy formation, leading his troops to stride forward to give the khan's tent to the base.
Although the wooden pole khan had retreated from the guard arch to one side, the big tent still contained the rich goods that had been given by the Western Wei Dynasty before, and the wooden pole khan saw that the enemy had entered the big tent, and his mood suddenly became agitated, and he shouted and ordered: "Take back the big tent."
Kill all the thieves!"
The Great Tent of the Khan was in chaos here, and the fighting on the outer battlefields was also fierce. After leading the vanguard to break through an enemy camp, he was met by an enemy cavalry formation and killed head-on, and he had only a thousand soldiers in his department, so he could only restrain his troops and cruise to the side to avoid the battle.
At the same time, the rear brigade led by Li Tai had also been killed to the front, and each of the generals led a troop to strangle in the direction of the enemy cavalry like a dragon.
Li Xian's son Li Chong was added to the cronies in the Tang Gong's account, and when he saw the rest of the people rushing forward to kill the enemy, the young man's heart couldn't help but boil with enthusiasm, but when he thought that he was in the Gong Gong to defend Tang Gong, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.
But when he was still looking ahead with the probe, there was the sound of horns and the sudden sound of the wind beside him, and when he flickered his eyes, he saw that Tang Gong, who was still behind him, had already rushed into the battlefield on horseback, and at the same time, his cousin Li Ya's shout sounded on the side: "Cousin, isn't he cowardly? Why don't you chase after Tang Gong into the battle and kill the enemy!"
