Chapter 399: The Battle of Mayi? Joke!
Time back to the first year of the new year of the Son of Heaven, the twenty-ninth day of September in the autumn.
Perhaps it was because he knew that on this day, something big would happen that would change the pattern of the known world - on this day, the heavens rained a thick fog in the Mayi-Wuzhou generation.
This is normal.
Especially north of Mayi and south of Wuzhousai, on this 'mountain trail' sandwiched by two mountain ranges, the mist that settles from the east and west mountains can always form a fairyland-like mist between the two mountains.
In the past, this kind of weather was extremely fond of and looked forward to by the Huns.
Because when targeting the Han army, the advantage of the Hun cavalry cluster, in addition to stronger mobility and reaction ability, is the surprise attack.
And dense fog, as well as all similar effects that can reduce the effective visual distance, can be a barrier for the Huns to launch a surprise attack.
This time, too.
- At least that's what Izuki thought at first.
"God blessed, this frost and mist has rained down for my Great Huns!"
"The Flying Fox Army has no city walls, and its eyes are blinded by fog, this is a godsend for me to give the Great Huns!"
After such a pre-war mobilization, as well as a high-standard army including cooking sheep and slaughtering cattle, the Xiongnu Youxian Wang's headquarters launched a night attack on the Flying Fox Army camp hanging alone outside the horse on the night of September 29 in the autumn.
In the beginning, everything went 'smoothly'.
In the past, the Flying Fox Army, which had surprised and suffered the steppe tribes, and even made the nomads faintly have a sense of 'fleeing from the hope of fleeing', did not find the movements of the Huns.
Approaching the Flying Fox camp under the double cover of night and fog, the Xiongnu Zhelan took the lead in attacking.
"Kill all the Han people!"
"Kill Zhang Xu!!"
"Took the Tiger !!!!!"
Hakan, the king of Zhelan, took the lead, and all the Zhelan warriors followed, squeaking and screaming and rushing into the camp;
"Don't worry about the Zhelan people, go all out to square the arrow!"
"Kill all the Han people here, and we can go to Loufu County and settle accounts with those traitors who betrayed the gods!!"
Lou Fu Wang Zhebei was stationed outside the camp, and moved the eagle's beak headdress on his forehead slightly, so that the eagle's beak rested lightly on the bridge of his nose.
Behind and in front of Jebel, there are the warriors of the Lou Fu tribe who are holding their bows and arrows, and the Aries tribe rangers who are also stationed on horses and holding bows under the leadership of the Aries King.
The division of tasks for this battle is very clear.
- Zhelanbu rushed into the Flying Fox camp, causing chaos and causing initial casualties;
- Lou Fu and Aries II fired arrows outside the camp to set everything in the Flying Fox camp on fire to create chaos to the greatest extent and provide fire support.
And the elite of the Youxian King headquarters under the command of Yi Zhixie has built several defense lines between the Flying Fox Camp and Ma Yi, and it is bound to leave every Flying Fox soldier who escaped from the Han camp in this fertile land forever.
Everything went according to plan.
Zhelan successfully rushed into the camp and lit hundreds of fire points at the first time;
The Lou Fu Department and the Aries Department also quickly launched rocket ejections, so that the sky above the entire Flying Fox Camp was lit up by a little 'starlight'.
The elite of the headquarters led by Yi Zhixie also arrived at the predetermined position early to lurk, and waited for the collapsed Flying Fox soldiers to rush out of the camp and instinctively flee in the direction of Mayi.
But after storming the camp, Hakan, the king of Zhelan, was the first to smell danger.
"Empty ······"
"An empty camp?"
"One ······"
···
"It's a trap!"
"The cunning Han people have led us into a trap !!"
After this exclamation, Khakan's first reaction was to break through!
Because in his opinion, this is a premeditated ambush by the Flying Fox Army, and those Flying Fox soldiers who 'disappeared' into the camp out of thin air must have surrounded themselves in the camp at this moment!
But after a brief moment of panic, Hackan was stunned again.
- Quiet.
- Extreme quiet.
After Hakan's exclamation, in the entire camp, only the sharp roar of the bow feathers of the Lou Fu Department and the Aries Department shot from outside the camp was left.
The Zhelan warriors under the command of Arkan did not even have the energy to dodge these arrows sent by their comrades.
Everyone was stunned to hold the blunt object in their hands, and just looked in the direction of Hackan in a daze.
Then, screams rang out outside the camp······
"Takeo Takeo!!"
"The !! of the Ministers of the Country"
"—Kill !!!!!"
The Flying Fox Army, appeared.
The Flying Fox Army, which disappeared out of thin air in the camp, appeared outside the camp like a divine soldier descending from the sky, even on the periphery of Aries and Lou Fu.
And before this shout of killing sounded, there was a more dense salvo of bows and crossbows than before, which was even more dense than the two parts of Lou Fu and Aries that had shot into the camp before, lighting up the entire night sky.
- If the Huns, or the steppe people, are a people on horseback, then the Han people, or the Chinese people, must be a people who grow on a bowstring.
Since the day when the 'bow', a product of intelligent civilization, appeared, the Chinese nation has always been the nation that is most proficient in mastering this long-range strike weapon.
Among them, especially the current Han border firefighters: the Flying Fox Captain Department is the leader······
"This is a trap for the Han Chinese!"
"Hidden! Take cover!! ”
"Get on the !!"
There was chaos outside the camp.
Originally, according to the previous experience, the Aries Department, which had a closer range, was used as a shield, so the Loufu Department, which was hiding farther away from the camp, became the meat shield of the Aries Department at this moment.
- The Flying Fox Army, attacking from behind the Lou Fu Division.
For a while, screams rang out in the wilderness, and figures fell from their horses.
When the bow and crossbow of the Flying Fox Commander's Department fired a salvo and created a field of death in the 'projectile camp' of the Lou Fu Department, the Lou Fu people had completely lost the courage to fight.
Because the Flying Fox Army is not a pure group of light infantry with bows and crossbows.
As the most indispensable part of the northern defense line of the Han Dynasty, and at the same time the only firefighter who can rely on and ensure that the northern wall border defense 'will not be corroded', Captain Flying Fox is the glorious unit with the most complete structure, the most complete arms, the most complete weapons, and the most rich combat experience in the Han Dynasty.
Since the Battle of Pingcheng in the Qin and Han Dynasties, when Emperor Taizu Gao Liu Bang was trapped in the siege of Baideng and came to an end, Liu Bang set up the Flying Fox Captain Department after the war, and was stationed in the Flying Fox Army, the Flying Fox Army has always been the most mysterious army of the Han family.
But no matter how mysterious the troops are, in the eyes of the 'bitter master' Huns, they are not mysterious.
- This is not so much a 'captain' as an independent legion!
armor shields, heavy infantry, halberds, spear light infantry, bow and crossbow clusters, archers, rangers and other light cavalry;
In the Flying Fox Captain's Department, there is even a heavy cavalry Sima with 500 people, with halberds as weapons, and all men and horses are protected by leather armor!
And when such a well-organized integrated combat group, covering almost all branches of this era, appeared outside the encirclement of the Huns without warning, this kind of blow was absolutely fatal to the Huns.
- The original night attack has become an ambush;
- The original encirclement has become a counter-encirclement;
- The original 'bite of meat' has become a trap tricked by bait.
If there is anything else that can make the Huns feel that 'it's okay, it's okay, the situation is not so bad that it makes people desperate', that is, the Youxian King Yizhi's evil department, which was originally planned to be ambushed on the way of the Flying Fox Army's 'rout', did not fall into this trap.
But soon, the situation of Yi Zhixie also became more and more desperate with the collapse of the two tribes of Lou Fu and Bai Yang, and the annihilation of the entire army of the Zhilan Department······

"Captain!"
"Captain!"
At three o'clock in September in the autumn of the first year of Tianzisheng, a touch of fish belly white had just appeared on the horizon, and the Flying Fox camp forty miles northeast of Mayi had already quieted down again.
On the periphery of the camp, I don't know how many Lou Fu and Aries archers who had planned to throw rockets were fired by the bow and crossbow of the Flying Fox Commander, and even the men and horses were tied into hedgehogs, and they were nailed to the ground and could not move.
- Some of them even maintained the posture of holding their bows and ready to shoot until they died;
It's just that no matter how fierce they are to death, they can't change their final ending, they were cut off by Yan Zhao Hanzi, who came forward with a hand-held sack······
"Captain Yudu!"
"In this battle, I have a ······ beheading of the Flying Fox Commander's Department."
"—and not in a hurry."
When Zhang Xu appeared outside the camp wearing light armor, holding a long ge, and a heavy face, a general stepped forward with an excited face;
It's just that without waiting for the general's report to be won, Zhang Xu interrupted the good news of the general's school in a deep voice.
When everyone was slightly stunned, and raised their heads with a little puzzlement, they saw Zhang Xu raising his head with a gloomy face, almost with the posture of Guan Erye looking down on the world, contemptuous of the Zhelan people who were still breathing in the camp.
Zhang Xu is very high.
As a Yan person, especially with his martial arts, he climbed step by step from the bottom to the position of a captain, Zhang Xu is nearly nine feet tall!
Matching the height of nearly nine feet, it is a cylindrical figure that adults can't embrace, and a weight of 400 catties (Han catties) upward!
Needless to say, just this body, casually thrown in a certain standing field army with a long tradition in the Han family, is a fierce pawn that can be seen at a glance.
What's more, this Yanren man, who has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a beard on his face, and his eyes flashing sinister from time to time, is still the current Flying Fox Lieutenant, a non-wartime standing chariot general······
"King Zhelan, do you still want to do the battle of trapped beasts!!"
Zhang Xu can speak Xiongnu.
Of course, Zhang Xu knows Xiongnu.
As a senior general who was moved to the Yan Dynasty since the Qin Dynasty, and has had grievances with the Huns for generations since his ancestors, and has dealt with the Huns in the army for so many years, Zhang Xu of course spoke the Xiongnu language.
It's just that when this thunderous roar sounded outside the camp after the battle, all the flying fox soldiers who were busy cleaning the battlefield and cutting off the heads stayed in place with some suspicion.
——After enduring the counter-encirclement and counter-raid, the Lou Nu and the Aries did not struggle too much, and they did not form a Chaowuzhou fortress and fled towards the defense line of the grassland.
As for the rest of the Zhelan, I don't know if they didn't react to what was happening, or because they were already in the camp, or because some kind of self-esteem was at work, they didn't leave the battlefield at the first time.
As a result, after Lou Annoying, who was the 'shooter', and the Aries were cut into the back row, the Zhelan people, who were supposed to be the heavy fighters in the front row, were blocked by the Flying Fox Commander in his camp: the Flying Fox Battalion.
And a moment ago, almost all the Flying Fox soldiers thought ······
"The Art of War: Don't hide when you return to the teacher, don't chase after the poor, and encircle three and lack one, so as not to live the enemy to death."
"How the general ······"
Zhang Xu knows the thoughts of the generals under his command.
- Yes~
——Very good~
An ambush that didn't take much planning severely damaged the Huns Lou Fu and the Second Aries Division, and the beheadings were thousands of levels!
After the war, after sweeping back and forth on the Mayi-Wuzhou line, I think I can still capture and capture thousands of Xiongnu heads/prisoners.
This is an unprecedented victory!
Thousands of Hun heads, especially the second of the Hun troika: Lou Fu and Aries!
This martial arts honor alone is enough for Zhang Xu himself to gain more than 5,000 households!
In the past ten years, Zhang Xu has only fished less than 100 heads in the Manchurian Communists with the rank of general of the cavalry and the rank of captain of the Flying Fox, and all of them have been 'collectively won by the troops under his command', rather than individually.
Isn't it enough to have such a harvest in this battle?
It's just that they don't know - even the generals of the Flying Fox Commander's headquarters who get along day and night don't know, and they don't understand Zhang Xu's obsession.
I don't understand the obsession that the successive Flying Fox Captains, including Zhang Xu, have accumulated little by little in the past few decades······
"Since the first generation of the Flying Fox Commander: Ling Mian Ling's general, my Flying Fox Commander's Department has been repeatedly tricked by the bureaucrats······"
"When you see the people, you will kill them, if you see the villages, if you see them, you will rob them, and if you see the Han soldiers, you will leave······"
"——For fifty years, I have not been able to touch the horsetail of my Flying Fox Commandery······"
"Hum ······"
"Humph·········"
There were two sneers, and a burst of broken Chinese finally sounded in the camp.
"Rise, rise will be embarrassing!"
"King Haran of Garan, I want to be embarrassed again!"
···
"The old man of the Han people said: If the rabbit is gone, can't the hound be killed and eaten for meat?"
"It's suspicious, our Jialan people are rabbits, and you flying fox people are hunting dogs!"
"The Garan people are dead, and the emperor of the Han people is hungry, won't he kill the hounds and eat meat???"
Listening to the extremely lame and unrecognizable 'Chinese' in the camp, but it was obvious that he could hear the anxiousness, Zhang Xu only sneered again.
"King Garan, Harry?"
"Humph!"
"I can't explain the truth of rabbit dead dog cooking, and I still want to play tricks with someone?"
As he spoke, Zhang Xu only pursed his thin lips tighter, his head was more high, and his face was even more proud.
This move caused a burst of more anxious and lame Chinese to sound in the camp.
"Don't be too arrogant!"
"We, the Garans, are warriors who will never be defeated!"
"If we don't let us go, we won't get a cheap !!"
"I, the Great Huns, are lonely and lonely, and I will never let go of the Flying Fox who killed the Garan people!!!!!"
Another burst of extremely lame shouting, but it failed to impress Zhang Xu in the slightest.
He only narrowed the corners of his eyes slightly, and looked at the middle of the camp from a distance, and the tall Zhelan hunting eagle was erected.
"General!"
"Ignite! Burn the camp !! ”
···
"I, Zhang Xu, owe 6,000 head-level !! to the Flying Fox Commander's Department"
"If I can't pay off this debt after exhausting my life, my children and grandchildren of the Zhang family will definitely pay !!!!!it off."
