Chapter 169: The Old Man is ashamed!
On the wilderness.
At this moment, the mighty Xiongnu army looked at the lower part of the mountain range in the distance, and countless tribesmen began to run out.
Listening to those howling and killing sounds, at this moment, I don't know how many Huns were afraid of the Qin army's iron cavalry.
"Shan Yu!"
Touman was alone, and the tribal leader Murto was full of panic.
In fact, not only Murto, but also the leaders of other tribes, as well as all the Huns around, did not know what to do at the moment.
It was the first time they had seen so many casualties among their clansmen in the same number.
More than 10,000 clansmen entered the canyon, but at this moment, only thirty percent of the clansmen retreated, and the rest of the clansmen all died in the canyon.
What scares them even more is.
This first batch of clansmen who entered it still took the Qin army captive and entered, and after withdrawing now, if they want to attack the canyon, the casualties will definitely be greater.
"Send another 10,000 people!"
Looking at the Qin army in the distance, since he had brazenly slaughtered out of the canyon, Tou Mandan was also full of panic at this moment, but now he understood that he had no choice.
The old man of the clan had warned him several times that the Qin people had always held grudges, and since they had decided to go south, they would definitely destroy the Bai Iron Cavalry of Gao Nu.
Otherwise, in the future.
The Huns will definitely be retaliated against.
"Yes!"
The other Xiongnu tribal leaders, even if they were frightened when they heard Toumandanyu's words, they could only obey their orders.
However, just as they were about to continue to send reinforcements from their tribesmen, some tribal leaders suddenly saw nearly 2,000 figures from the north, rushing towards here.
"What's going on?"
"That's right!"
With the sound, the other Xiongnu leaders, and even the Xiongnu army behind them, all saw the crowd coming from the north.
A moment later.
Looking at the group of figures approaching, when the Huns saw the comer, they were all shocked.
The leader of the tribe, Sangia, came here covered in blood and embarrassed with his people.
"Didn't he lead the tribesmen in Yunshan?"
"yes, why do you look like this? Could it be the Yueshi? ”
Amid the sound of a hundred horses' hooves, Sangia rode along the front of the army all the way to Toumandanyu.
Under the gaze of Tou Mandanyu, Sangia ignored the wounds on his body and turned over and dismounted before the horse could stop.
"Shan Yu, the Yue clan killed all the people of my tribe, and now they have gone north!"
Sangia cried at Tou Mandanyu.
The voice fell.
Toumandan's eyes widened, and the other tribal leaders were also in an uproar.
The Yue Clan killed more than 10,000 people in their tribe, and only less than 2,000 people broke through!
"Shan Yu!"
"Shan Yu!!"
A tribal leader, all of them were nervous at the moment, and the Yue clan suddenly killed the people of their tribe, and now they are heading north.
The Horde is in danger!
"Go back!"
After Tou Manshan came back to his senses, he looked at the Qin troops at the entrance of the canyon in the distance, and finally decided to go north immediately.
Without the Yue's army, they alone would not be able to plunder south.
What's more, if you want to destroy that Qin army's iron cavalry, I don't know how many people will die! At present, after killing more than 10,000 people from their tribe behind the back of the Yue clan, they are heading north, if they don't rush back in time, the tribe will be in danger.
"Yes! Get back! ”
"Go back !!"
Under the order of Touman Danyu, a Xiongnu tribe led the tribesmen to ride war horses and rush towards the north.
Entrance to the canyon.
Bai Yan was covered in blood, and even his arms and Qin Jian were covered in blood.
Bai Yan, who was standing in place and gasping for breath, suddenly found that the Hun army in the distance was all rushing towards the north.
Seeing this, Bai Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Behind Bai Yan, an iron cavalry soldier covered in blood and with wounds all breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the ground, or directly lay on the ground to gasp.
"General! The Huns retreated! ”
Chai gasped and came to Bai Yan's side.
Knowing Bai Yan's plan, seeing the departure of the Xiongnu army, he knew that it must be the 500 carriages sent to the Xiongnu before, which played a role.
"Go down and bandage!"
On Chai's arm, a wound was particularly conspicuous, and Bai Yan turned his head to see it, so he opened his mouth to instruct.
Then Bai Yan looked at a famous iron cavalry soldier.
"Pass my order, the soldiers who are not injured or slightly injured, immediately treat the seriously injured soldiers."
Bai Yan ordered.
"No!"
"No!!"
With Bai Yan's order, the soldiers who were originally lying on the ground gasping for breath got up one after another and began to treat the soldiers who fell to the ground around them.
Bai Yan handed the sword to Chai.
Chai took Bai Yan's saber blankly, looked at Bai Yan's back as he turned and walked away, and then laughed helplessly.
In his eyes, such a general, no matter what order he ordered, the soldiers would never hesitate.
Inside the canyon.
Bai Yan looked at the ancient road and looked at it, surrounded by corpses.
The corpses of the Huns, as well as the corpse of a famous iron cavalry soldier.
Bai Yan took off the armor on his body and threw it aside, then took off the clothes full of blood inside, tore open a gap, took out a bloody cloth strip, and with the help of a soldier, tied the wound on his shoulder.
And because of that.
In the valley road, other iron cavalry soldiers who were saving people clearly saw that in addition to the old wounds on Bai Yan's body, there were several new wounds, bleeding.
Bai Yan squatted down, moved the corpse of a Hun away, looked at the iron cavalry soldiers below, and after inspection, his eyes darkened, and the soldiers were dead.
"General!"
"General!!"
Bai Yan heard the voice of a famous iron cavalry soldier, but he didn't care, looking at the concerned gaze of a famous soldier.
"Small injury, save people first!"
Bai Yan said, and then tore all the clothes into strips of cloth.
The wound on the shoulder was the most serious, and it was originally stabbed to the chest, and it was blocked in time and a lot of strength was removed.
Holding a strip of cloth in his hand.
Bai Yan followed the corpse to the side of a tied iron cavalry soldier, and when he saw that the soldier was still alive, he was glad that he hurriedly untied the dying soldier.
At this moment, Bai Yan was a little lucky, except for the soldiers who were killed by the Huns in front at the beginning, the Huns in the back didn't have time to kill, so they hurriedly responded to the battle, so some soldiers survived.
"General~!"
Bai Yan was about to examine the soldier's wound when he saw a small slit open on the soldier's weak and pale face.
"The Huns are gone! Don't talk just yet, get some rest! ”
Bai Yan looked at the soldier's open eyes, full of guilt, and laughed softly.
Turn the soldier over and lie down.
Bai Yan suddenly saw a seriously injured soldier on the side and moved.
Seeing that the soldier's wound was still bleeding, Bai Yan hurriedly got up and bandaged the soldier's wound.
Under a mountain range, a horse-drawn carriage drove out of the valley.
"My lord! My lord!! ”
The groom, who was driving the horses in the carriage, suddenly shouted in a hurry.
Suddenly, a voice came from inside the carriage.
"What's the matter, so alarmed?"
It was Meng Yu, an official of the Qin State who spoke, who sighed after hearing Ma Fu's panicked tone.
Something, so
After lifting the curtain, Meng Yu looked at the plains in the distance, the head of Gaonu City, full of billowing smoke.
What's going on?
After coming back to his senses, Meng Yu sat on the carriage and looked at the curtain that blocked down again in front of him, full of astonishment.
Meng Yu, who has been an official all his life, wondered for the first time whether his eyes were dazzling and wrong.
Behind him, Meng Yu once again stretched out his hand to open the tribe, and this time, Meng Yu really saw that the Gaonu City in the distance was really full of fire and smoke.
Seeing this scene, two words instinctively appeared in Meng Yu's mind: Burn the city!!
"My lord, it's an iron knight!"
At this time, accompanied by the exclamation of the horseman, Meng Yu looked over, and then saw that in the other direction in the distance, several iron horsemen were rushing here at this time.
Grunt~!
As the sound of horses' hooves approached, Meng Yu saw several iron horsemen and quickly came to him.
It was also at this time that Meng Yu clearly saw that the blood stains on the bodies of these iron cavalry soldiers were even wet.
"Who?"
Among the five iron cavalry soldiers, the iron cavalry general led by him asked.
Meng Yu walked out of the carriage at this time, took out the wooden plaque and edict from the sleeve pocket of the official uniform.
"I am Cheng Mengyu in the imperial history, and I am ordered by the king to come to the county to investigate."
Meng Yu said.
The Imperial Historian is one of the two Imperial Historians under the command of the Imperial Historian, and is in charge of the Imperial History of each county.
"Meet your lord!"
"Meet your lord!"
The iron cavalry generals led by him, after making sure that the wooden sign was correct, hurriedly bowed his hand.
"Why did you burn down the city of Gaonu? Where is the city guard Bai Yan engraved now? ”
Meng Yu put away the edict and the wooden card, his brows furrowed.
Especially looking at the Gaonu City in the distance, who burned it?
This is a city, and the damage is incalculable.
Several iron cavalry soldiers frowned when they heard Meng Yu's inquiry.
"Don't you know the news that the 150,000 army of the Yue clan and the Xiongnu is heading south?"
The Iron Rider General asked.
"What?"
Meng Yu's pupils shrank, and he doubted his ears again.
Yueshi, Xiongnu, 150,000 troops south?
Come to think of it.
Meng Yu looked at these iron cavalry soldiers again, and their bodies were full of blood.
"If you come an hour early, I'm afraid your life will be in danger!"
The iron cavalry general led by him looked at Meng Yu and said, and then slowly told what had happened.
Meng Yu listened, his mouth kept open.
The whole process made Meng Yu's heart beat in shock.
"The old man is ashamed!"
Meng Yu muttered and sighed.
thought of the previous resentment against Bai Yan.
It was only at this time that he understood what the consequences would have been if Bai Yan hadn't let the Gaonu people leave!
After gradually understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Meng Yu stood on the carriage with a dazed expression, and then turned his head and looked at the Gaonu City in the distance in a daze.
Right now, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Bai Yan burning the city, on the contrary, he was grateful that this fire burned Gao Nu!
"Take me to General Bai!"
Meng Yu said to the Iron Cavalry.
Grunt~!
After a long time.
Led by the Iron Horsemen, the carriage slowly drove to the entrance of the valley.
Meng Yufang just lifted the curtain and saw that there were corpses all around, and the corpses of iron cavalry soldiers were neatly placed outside, and the number was shocking.
These iron cavalry soldiers were all killed here in the canyon.
"My lord, the general is in the canyon, I'll go and call the general out."
After the iron cavalry dismounted, he looked at Meng Yu and was about to leave, but he heard Meng Yu shout to stop.
"No, Meng Yu wants to go to see General Bai in person!"
Meng Yu looked at the countless corpses of the iron cavalry soldiers at a glance, his eyes turned red at this moment, and then he stepped out of the carriage.
