Chapter 162: Strange Soldier in the River
Zhang Beichen led the cavalry all the way to the location of the Thule River Valley.
He first sent a team of Donghu cavalry disguised as Hun cavalry, wanting to deceive the other party's trust, but King Changtu was too cautious, and this trick was seen through by him.
The two sides engaged in a brief exchange of fire on the outskirts of the Thule Valley, with no winner.
[You led your troops to attack the Thule Valley many times, but because the opponent was well defended, they all returned in vain! ] 】
The Xiongnu operated the Tule River Valley for many years, and when they competed with Donghu Dadan in Daji, Mao Tai built many large Outuo here, and the defense here is comparable to the fortified city of the Central Plains!
Rao is Yan army has strong combat effectiveness, and it will not be able to defeat it for a while.
Zhang Beichen counted the days, if it dragged on for a few more months, Mao Tai's reinforcements would arrive.
Fighting on the grassland, after all, Mao Tai has the advantage, and the victory and defeat will be even more suspenseful at that time.
[You sent a letter to Zhao Yun and asked her to lead the cavalry from Shanggu County to raid Dragon City and block Mao Tai's way back to help. 】
……
Shanggu County, where Zhao Yun has been training cavalry for several years.
After receiving Zhang Beichen's letter, she counted the soldiers and horses and went to the grassland.
……
Zhang Beichen is also thinking about how to quickly break through the Thule River Valley.
It is not advisable to hit the front. The Yan army is now deep in the grassland, lacking logistical supplies, once the losses are heavy, when the attack and defense are reversed, the Yan army is likely to be lost on the grassland.
Then you have to outwit it.
Zhang Beichen observed the map, the map of the Tule River valley has been standardized, all the main roads are built with Outuo, guarded by the Huns. One after another, breaking through head-on, it is simply going to die!
Zhang Beichen hit the idea on the river.
The place where the Thule valley is located is naturally on the banks of the Thule River, where the Thule River has an inflection point, forming a valley area with abundant water and grass, suitable for nomadic herding.
"Brother Hao, will the Huns fortify by the river?" Zhang Beichen asked Hao Zhen.
Hao Zhen shook his head and said, "The big river is a natural hazard, why should it be fortified?" ”
Zhang Beichen heard his words and a smile appeared on his face. The north was already arid and there were few rivers, so the Huns rarely paid attention to water warfare.
And in the Central Plains, especially in the south, the water network is dense, and some countries have sailors.
The Yan State also trained sailors to defend against the Qi State's attack from the sea.
If you let the sailors attack from the river, it is possible to surprise the enemy.
Zhang Beichen immediately looked for someone in the army, and sure enough, there were some soldiers who were familiar with water.
[You send soldiers familiar with the nature of the water to explore the river. 】
A few days later, the soldier came back and said, "My lord, it has been discovered." The enemy had very few defenses along the river, and many places were almost impossible to defend. ”
"Good!" Zhang Beichen was overjoyed and ordered: "Immediately select those in the army who are familiar with water and form a special team." ”
[You temporarily formed a special squad of sailors, and on this day, the torrential rain poured down, the Thule River rose, and the river was white! 】
"This is the time!" Zhang Beichen ordered the special team to swim from the river to the Thule Valley, and at the same time led people to attack the Thule Valley from the front.
……
In the Thule Valley, because of the heavy rain outside, the Huns hid in Outuo and tents to rest.
King Changtu thought that the Yan army would definitely not attack today, so he also relaxed his vigilance a little, and drank wine and ate meat with a group of Xiongnu generals.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a whistle outside.
"The Yan army is coming!"
"His grandmother's, she doesn't rest when it rains!" King Changtu scolded and ordered the generals: "Prepare to meet the enemy!" ”
"Yes!"
The generals mounted their horses, grabbed their weapons, and returned to their own area to defend.
After the rain, the roads were muddy, which had a greater impact on the cavalry charge, and the Yan army had been probing at the edge of the Thule valley and did not rush into the valley.
King Changtu smiled: "It seems that Zhang Beichen is really in a hurry!" Such heavy rain was not at all suitable for a cavalry charge. ”
"He saw that Da Dan was about to return to help, and he was anxious to attack the city. We just need to hold on, and the Yan army will be defeated! ”
So far, the Yan army has not shown the slightest sign of attacking the river valley.
……
In the Thule River, the special squad of the Yan Army is following the river into the river valley.
To save effort, they go straight upstream and go downstream. In this way, the speed of the attack will be much faster.
And because of the heavy rain, the river surface is a model lake, and the Huns are not many good in water, they didn't realize that the Yan army would attack from the waterway, so no one noticed.
The special team entered the valley without any problems, and went ashore at the site that had been explored from the beginning.
"Get in, create chaos, signal the army!" A soldier unleashed a burst of spiritual power, which formed a red light in the air.
Zhang Beichen saw the light and ordered: "The whole army will raid and increase the offensive!" ”
"Yes!"
The Yan army began to intensify its attacks.
The Huns were about to consolidate their defenses, but they found that a lot of Yan troops suddenly appeared inside, and they began to fight with weapons, and many Huns were caught off guard and were killed in chaos.
"What's going on?" King Changtu was furious, "How did the Yan army get in?" ”
"I don't know, obviously every road is guarded!"
"Didn't see them attack!"
"Mess up, they're trying to open the passage into the valley!"
"Defend the outside, the Yan army inside hurry up and clean it up!" King Changtu personally led people out and killed them.
At this time, Zhang Beichen and Hao Zhen had already gone into battle in person.
A holy realm, a half-saint, under the care of the cavalry array and the internal response, bombardment Outuo, the Huns soldiers can't be!
[Half an hour later, you finally tore through the enemy's defense line and entered the Thule River Valley! 】
King Changtu did not clear the Yan army at this time, because these Yan troops were always moving around the Tule River, and once they found that something was wrong, they immediately jumped into the river to escape.
Few of the Huns are proficient in water, and even if they know water, as soon as they enter Hanoi, they will be drowned in Hanoi by the other party!
The Changtu King can still kill a few by relying on the cultivation of the Holy Realm, and the others have no choice.
"King, the Yan army has come in!" The subordinates hurriedly came to report.
"Damn it!" King Changtu could only give up clearing these people and lead people to face Zhang Beichen and Hao Zhen.
By this time, the rain had already subsided.
King Changtu stopped Zhang Beichen and Hao Zhen.
"Zhang Beichen, today the Tule River Valley is your burial place!" King Changtu flew directly to kill him, and Zhang Beichen was also not afraid.
[The battle of the Holy Realm, the sky is dark. Although the Chang Tu King is extremely fierce, he was defeated by you after all, and was seriously injured by you! 】
Zhang Beichen knocked the Chang Tu King from mid-air to the ground, and the beast of the Chang Tu King was still not his opponent.
In the end, Zhang Beichen killed him with one shot.
As soon as King Changtu died, the Hun soldiers in the Tule River Valley lost their backbone and began to scatter and flee.
[You led your troops to continue the pursuit, and soon killed all the Huns in the Tule River Valley, and a small number of Huns fled. 】
……
"Hahahaha!" In the Tule River Valley, Hao Zhen couldn't help laughing, "Now the Tule River Valley is also ours, we can attack the Mobei Royal Court at any time, from now on, Mao Tai will not be able to sleep well!" ”
"Now you only need to join forces with Zhao Yun, and you can directly kill the Mobei Royal Court!" Zhang Beichen said.
……
Dragon City, Zhao Yun led the cavalry to step on this place, and under her sword, it was the corpse of Hu Yanxiao, the first warrior under the tent of the Zuo Evil King.
Hu Yanxiao fought with Zhao Yun outside Shanggu County, and was defeated, so he led his troops back to Longcheng to rest.
He didn't expect Zhao Yun to be so bold, and he also knew the location of Dragon City accurately, and directly attacked him for a long distance and killed him!
"General, we have destroyed the altar of the Huns. What's next? The subordinate asked.
"Keep heading north!" Zhao Yun's cold eyes looked at the north, "Join forces with the prime minister and destroy the Huns!" ”
"Yes!"
……
Mao Tai finally rushed back to the Mobei Royal Court, but the news that came made his face gloomy.
Both Bolmu and the Changtu King were killed, and the two great river valleys were lost!
Now the Yan army has formed a corner and has actually come to surround his royal court!
When did he lose such a face?
"The king, Zhang Beichen led 100,000 cavalry, and Zhao Yun led 100,000 cavalry, coming towards the royal court. It is expected to be killed in more than ten days! "The spies came to report the situation.
"These Yan people don't take us seriously at all!" The generals of the Huns can't wait to go to war at this time and kill them happily!
"The enemy is not to be underestimated!" Mao Tai admonished.
He had already received the battle report, and even the wolf cavalry could not suppress the Yan cavalry head-on. Now that the enemy has so many people, if he is careless, the Huns may really be destroyed.
On the same day, Mao Tai went to Wolf Juxu Mountain to worship the beast god.
After the sacrifice, Mao Tai fell asleep.
In his sleep, he seemed to see a golden beast head appear in front of him.
"Respected Beast God!" Mao Tai knelt on the ground respectfully, "Your people ask for your protection, the army of Yan has been killed in the grassland!" ”
The beast god asked, "Mao Tai, are you scared?" ”
"No, I've never been afraid!" Mao Tai said loudly.
The beast god said, "Very well, you just go to fight, and this god will protect you." ”
With that, a drop of golden blood spat out of its mouth, and the blood flew towards Mao Tai.
Mao Tai's consciousness suddenly woke up, and he realized that there was indeed a drop of golden blood floating in the air beside him. It exudes a divine light all over its body, making people dare not look at it directly!
"Thank you for the gift of the beast god!" Mao Tai saluted respectfully before swallowing the golden blood in one gulp.
He felt like he had swallowed a mouthful of magma, the blazing temperature and fierce energy made him can't help but look up to the sky and roar, his roar is also like the roar of a beast, a radius of a hundred miles, a hundred beasts are dormant!
Mao Tai's body grew golden hair, a beast horn grew on his head, and his eyes also turned golden.
"This powerful force!" Mao Tai clenched his fists, and he could feel the surging energy rushing in his veins!
"Zhang Beichen, your death time has arrived!" Mao Tai is full of confidence at this time, and when his personal strength is strong to a certain point, he can also affect the battle situation!
……
Zhang Beichen and Zhao Yun finally converged.
On the grassland, Zhang Beichen saw the sassy figure at a glance.
Zhao Yun was dressed in a military uniform, with long hair tied up, sharp eyes, a straight waist, and a pair of long legs tightly clamped on the horse's back.
Zhang Beichen flew over directly and landed on Zhao Yun's horse.
"You're finally here, and you want to die as a husband!" Zhang Beichen hugged Zhao Yun and chuckled.
"So many people watching!" Zhao Yun said.
"They don't dare!" Zhang Beichen turned around, and sure enough, the generals left with interest.
Zhao Yun turned around and kissed Zhang Beichen.
[You join forces together, prepare to attack the Mobei Royal Court, Mao Tai gathers troops, and is ready for battle. 】
……
On the endless grassland, a figure was walking slowly.
Dressed in the coarse cloth clothes of ascetics, she walked one step at a time towards the north.
A group of Hun cavalry spotted her.
These were deserters who had been routed by the Yan army, and they gathered together to raid other small tribes.
"There's a guy up ahead!"
For them, people mean wealth and rations!
The Hun cavalry rushed over and surrounded her.
One of the leaders stopped in front of her, pointed his whip at her, and scolded: "Raise your head! ”
She slowly looked up at the comer, her face expressionless.
"It's a girl from the Central Plains, and she's so beautiful!" The Hun leader's eyes lit up, this woman was really born extremely beautiful!
If the first beauty of their tribe was in front of her, it would also be dark!
A group of Hun soldiers suddenly became excited, and they couldn't imagine that they could encounter such a good thing.
Without saying a word, the Hun leader picked up the rope of the horse and wanted to lasso the other party.
Who knew that when the rope was thrown at her, it inexplicably turned around and was empty.
The woman said, "How far is it from the Mobei Royal Court here?" ”
Although she spoke the language of the Central Plains, several Hun soldiers could understand it.
"Mobei Royal Court?" The Hun general smiled, "There is a war going on there, do you want to send it to death?" What a pity, it's better to open meat for our brothers! ”
"That's it!" Several Hun soldiers were already laughing lewdly.
"Whoever is rude to this king, die." The woman said.
"Who do you think you are?" The Hun general was about to catch her again, but the next moment, he found that the world in his eyes was spinning.
"What's going on?" There was a puzzled look in his eyes, and then he turned into horror because he saw his body!
On his body, his head had disappeared, not only him, but also several other Hun soldiers.
And the figure of that woman has disappeared at the end of the horizon!
"It's the Holy Realm!" This was the last thought on the mind of the Hun soldiers.
……
Zhang Beichen finally led his troops to the vicinity of the Mobei Royal Court.
Although it was a royal court, there was no city, only a large number of tents.
The court of the Xiongnu also moved places with nomadism.
But this time, Mao Tai did not order the migration, but waited here for Zhang Beichen's arrival.
After losing the strength of the two river valleys, Mao Tai still had more than 200,000 cavalry.
Zhang Beichen's current strength is also 200,000, which is comparable.
"Zhang Beichen, we meet again!" Mao Tai flew in the air, and his tone was cold, "Last time, you deceived this king and robbed the land of Donghu. Now, the king wants to get it back! ”
"Da Danyu has any means, just use it!" Zhang Beichen is not afraid at all, he has fought against Mao Tai many times, and he is very familiar with his cavalry tactics and personal combat methods.
Even if his realm is lower than the other party, he has more than a fifty percent chance of winning!
