"King Tu, have all the departments under your command been arranged?"

At the beginning of the morning, in the big tent, Yi Zhi sat on the desk, his eyes shining brightly.

The Xiongnu troops and horses have been mobilized.

For the coming battle, Yi Zhixi's confidence is getting stronger and stronger.

Unlike in the past, this time the Huns not only prepared for war with all their might, but also did not underestimate the enemy. And from the various ministries transferred pasture, war readiness, soldiers and horses support.

As a battlefield, the Western Xiongnu are the places where they have been operating for many years, suitable for horses, and can give full play to the Huns' riding and hunting tactics to the extreme.

In addition to the geographical advantage, compared with the people and horses, although the Han has accumulated for many years and made every effort to develop horse warfare, the elite cavalry has always been around 100,000, which is far less than the number of Xiongnu people who can fight on horses.

In the battle of Hexi, the Han could mobilize a maximum of 60,000 to 70,000 horsemen.

And the Xiongnu departments summed up, and the soldiers and horses mobilized in light and dark have reached more than 120,000 people, twice as many as the Han army!

So Yi Zhixian is full of confidence.

In this battle, the Huns had no reason to lose!

In front of him was a cowhide topography map, which clearly drew the terrain of the entire Xiongnu.

Looking at the picture, the situation is even clearer.

The Xiongnu spread out all kinds of troops and horses, and the army approached the Western Regions, and all preparations were made.

King Tu walked calmly into the tent and came to Yizhi's side.

The two of them looked at the direction and route of the marching troops and horses in front of them.

"My subordinates should have approached Pu and Cheshi Houguo by now."

The Chieftain replied, "The kingdom of the Cheshi Houguo has wavered for many years and refuses to fully obey our orders. This time, the soldiers and horses I sent will take the country after the division as the first goal, and destroy the country and slaughter it to deter the countries of the Western Regions.

Qiuzi and other countries dare to openly surrender to Han, and when the army enters the Western Regions, it will no longer exist, and see who dares to surrender to Han in the future. ”

Yi Zhi sneered and said: "Well said, those who disobey my orders will pay the price of losing the country!" ”

And said: "How is the rear army advancing?" ”

The chief Tu Wang said: "Most of the shamans of each department are deployed to the rear army, hiding the traces of the march with shamanism, secretly echoing with the front army, about more than 200 miles away from the front army, galloping on horseback, and the front army can be joined in less than half a day." ”

Yi Zhi nodded with satisfaction, and talked about the enemy and me:

"I analyzed many times before the battle with the great shaman and even the heads of various departments, and the characteristics of the Han general Huo Quai's use of troops, he was good at running and attacking, and he was unprepared to attack me repeatedly.

In the Han art of war, there is a saying of strange soldiers. Although your rear army marches secretly, I am sure that he will see through it.

He will come first to attack your rear army and attack me with a surprise, but we do not know that this time we are prepared, and when he comes, we can launch arrangements and defeat them. ”

The Chieftain looked at the marching map.

The West Xiongnu on the map are from north to south, and there are two large armies, one in front and one behind, one bright and one dark.

The front army was 50,000, and the rear army was comparable in number, but it was more well arranged.

The two echo each other, in order to deal with Huo Qu's attack tactics.

The rear army is secretly marching on the surface, but it is actually a trap!

After Huo Quzhi saw that he was hidden, once he attacked the army first, he would fall into their calculations.

It's a plan within a calculation.

According to Huo Quai's marching method in the past, it is speculated that the ambush of the Xiongnu is indeed very likely to succeed.

Fight the hidden rear army first, and then backstab the front army, in order to defeat the Huns, which is very in line with their understanding of Huo Qu's disease.

And from the topography map, you can also see another route of the great shaman, the elite who personally accompanied the army.

That is the real hidden soldiers and horses of the Huns, with the Heavenly Soul Department under the command of Borage as the main force.

The Xiongnu used all means to cover their marching trajectory, in order to completely defeat the Han army when it broke out.

Such a light and dark three-way, virtual and real are combined, and they are pressed up in an all-round way.

The chief Tu Wang, like Yi Zhixian, was full of confidence in this battle and could not see the possibility of defeat for the Xiongnu.

"Then Huo Quai's illness will not let the Han army attack my rear, the location of the various departments."

"This war is the Western Regions, to fight the rear departments, it is equivalent to giving the Western Regions to my Xiongnu army empty-handed, he will not be so stupid!"

Yi Zhi squinted his gaze away and looked out of the tent.

Everything is ready now, just wait for the war to win, and be ashamed.

……

The sun rises into the sky.

There were 50,000 people in the former army of the Western Huns, and the general who led the troops was called Ba Liexian, who was the left general under the court of the Xiongnu king.

The so-called Zuo General is the general who is second only to the left and right Xian Wang, and the left and right Gu Li Wang, with high power.

The Hun cavalry led by Ba Lie was galloping on the wasteland, the horse's hooves were dusty, and the earth shook.

They rode in triangular formations, and even in the gallop, they also showed a strong aggressiveness.

Looking down from the sky, the whole army gathered, ten thousand horses galloped, rising and falling like a tide.

The kind of scene that looks at the past, crowded with people and horses, stretches endlessly, is spectacular!

The front is approaching the destination of the march, and it is about to reach Pu in the Western Regions.

The scouts who had dispersed returned one after another, and the army pushed forward.

The spirit of the various soldiers and horses gathered almost formed a substantial surge, and even if it was several miles away, there was a strong pressure that made people's hearts palpitate.

"The news sent said that the Han army left the camp in the morning and disappeared after leaving the camp."

A group of people reported to Bailje first during the ride.

With a square face, high cheekbones, and a messy hair shawl, he is not burly, but his strength is amazing.

In the shamanic soul technique practiced by the Xiongnu, he has reached the point of communicating life and death, and he has changed to the realm of heaven and man, and he also has the power of about three realms.

"The usual method used by the Han general Huo Qubing is to hide the march and gain an advantage by sneak attacks."

Baliexian said calmly: "My grassland tribes have clashed with him many times, and he rarely fights with our soldiers and horses head-on. This time, all the departments of my grassland have gathered, and it is time to defeat the Han army! ”

"Da Shan Yu and I and others, several times before the war, thought that Huo Qubing would lead the Han army to attack the rear army first.

Let's go into the Western Regions first, and if we are fast enough, maybe we will have time to kill the Han army again. ”

Balie first passed down the order, and the speed of the whole army surged.

In the northernmost part of the Western Regions, corresponding to the direction of the Xiongnu soldiers and horses, it is the pu species in the countries of the Western Regions.

Pu and Loulan, one south and one north, held the key point of the Han to the Western Regions and helped the Xiongnu guard the gate.

The first target of the Huns was the Cheshi Houguo, which was adjacent to the Pu and was located on its west side.

At this time, Xiao Ye, the minister of Pu, was leading a team of 500 soldiers and horses, together with Pu's ministers, to personally welcome the Xiongnu army into the Western Regions.

They stood on a high ground on the Pu border, looking at the scene of the Hun army, in awe, but also inevitably excited.

"The so-called cavalry is like this, such a strong army should be able to defeat all opponents."

Xiao Ye's eyes lit up.

They were attached to the Xiongnu, and naturally hoped that the Xiongnu would be as strong as possible.

Xiao Ye was thin and small, but his eyes were bright, and he glanced at the Pu ministers beside him, and said:

"Among the countries of the Western Regions, Qiuci, Gumo and other countries have the most no foresight, and they have taken the liberty of surrendering to the Han Dynasty. Now that the army is approaching, see how they deal with themselves! ”

Other Pu officials also nodded their heads.

The might of the Xiongnu's soldiers and horses made their pro-Xiongnu vassals also have a great increase in confidence.

"Let's go, let's go down and line up to meet us!"

After Xiao Ye finished speaking, he prepared to go down the high ground, ready to lick the Huns.

But at that moment, someone behind him let out a soft sigh.

Xiao Ye's gaze was about to withdraw from the Huns' soldiers and horses, and he immediately saw an astonishing scene.

Sudden arrows like flying locusts!

Xiao Ye was almost sixty years old, but he had never seen such a dense rain of arrows in the past fifty years!

Even the color of the sky seems to be covered by the rain of arrows that appear and becomes dark.

The arrows are as dense as dark clouds, covering the sky and the sun.

The feeling to Xiao Ye and other onlookers is extremely sharp and murderous!

Woohoo!

For a moment, the void was filled with a sharp sound that tore through the air.

Xiao Ye slowly opened his mouth wide and looked into the distance in disbelief.

A Hun soldier was shot into the ribs by a long arrow, and his body was carried away from his horse by the impact of the arrow.

And the arrow shot out of its body, and it passed through the second person, the third person, and then the power weakened, but it still shot the fourth Hun soldier through the falling horse and nailed it to the ground!

There are arrows of such incredible power in the world!

From the perspective of a bystander, a dry pu person deeply felt the panic of the Huns at this moment!

"Look!"

A pu man whispered.

With the rain of arrows, on both sides of the galloping Xiongnu army, a soldier and horse appeared like a nightmare.

Its men and horses are extended, well-equipped, and it is the Han army.

They seemed to be covered with a layer of invisible curtain, which was only unveiled at this moment, and tens of thousands of Han troops appeared.

What is surprising is that their position is on both sides of the range of the Hun army.

The outermost part of the Xiongnu soldiers and horses was less than 40 zhang away from the Han army.

But they all happened to be in the middle of the Han army, and it looked like the Huns had taken the initiative to rush into the range of the Han army's formation.

Along with the Han army, there were also large shooting tools such as ballistas.

Before Huo Qubing led his troops to break through the mountain gate of Zonghengdao, he captured more than 20 crossbow cars.

That is the family foundation accumulated by Zonghengdao for many years, plus the original ballista equipment of the Han Dynasty, and there are hundreds of ballistas brought by the Han army.

It's one of the most powerful battlefield killers in the world!

The ballista was first designed by Mozi, the founder of the Mo family, and "Mozi Bei Gaolin" talked about the "crossbow car", which has "two axles and three wheels", which can be used as a frame to draw strings with a wheel;

The length of the arrow is "more than five feet", and the end of the arrow is connected to a rope, like a gee shot, which can be retracted with a roller.

"Liutao Military" also records the "winch repeater", which is also a weapon of the same nature.

The ballista is a chariot that carries a crossbow and a bow, "the array is outside the car, the flag is used as an obstacle, and the ballista is used as the gate of the formation, and its upper arrow is as big as a chisel, and a single arrow can shoot several people, and the arrow can reach hundreds of steps." ”

In addition to the ballistas, there were also tens of thousands of Han troops who shot with bows and fierce shots, forming a dense rain of arrows.

The ballista was still under the control of the Han army, the winch turned, and the crossbow arrows were shot in rows.

The sound of the winch winding makes people's scalp tingle.

The Han army also kept stretching their bows and shooting arrows in turn.

The tide of the Hun army rode as if it had been cut off, and it was chaotic in an instant. Some Hun soldiers were shot by huge ballista arrows, and their bodies were almost broken in two, and they were extremely bloody, with blood and shouting and screaming everywhere.

The key is the position where the Han army appeared, which makes people think about it carefully.

Since the crossbow was brought, it shows that the Han army was deliberately ambushed and prepared.

What kind of pre-war deduction is needed to accurately predict the attack route of the Xiongnu tribes and line them up into an ambush.

Huo Qubing attacked the countries of the Western Regions, leveling many small countries, but leaving the vassals of the Xiongnu, the strongest Loulan and Pu to not kill.

In the eyes of others, it was because of Qiuci's surrender to the Han Dynasty, so the Han army had to help Qiuci clear the surrounding hidden dangers first, so it spread out to the surrounding areas with Qiuci as the core.

Until the Xiongnu army came, the Han army had no time to defeat Loulan and Pu.

This way of marching seems normal.

In fact, there are other deployments hidden in it, leaving Pu and Loulan, like two anchor points.

When the Xiongnu came to the Western Regions, they had to contact their vassal states and join them to break the enemy.

Huo Qubing predicted that the Xiongnu would come to join Pu, so he could lay an ambush here.

At the beginning of the Battle of Hexi, Huo Qubing used a series of tactics, and after taking the camp of the Evil King, the Han army gathered, and said that there was no need to use tactics repeatedly to fight in the future, and it was reckless to be tough and tough, and it could also defeat the Huns.

He deduced the march for several days, not to calculate his own troop route, but more to reverse the Huns' combat strategy.

That's the blocking at this moment.

The Han army marched across the sea in concealment, and came hidden. The purpose is to spear and fire horses and break the enemy head-on!

As the Han army shot several rounds of arrow rain, when the Huns were in chaos, in the Han military camp, a member of the Xiao will ride out.

The two armies met in a blink of an eye, and the general's spear flew over, and the blocker was invincible.

On both sides, the Han army surged down and entered the battlefield, impacting the Xiongnu troops.

On the high ground, the onlookers see most clearly.

The Han army descended from the sky like a divine soldier, and the Huns like a tide of people seemed to be cut off by someone, and they were suppressed from the beginning, and under the impact of the Han army, there was chaos!

And until this moment, in front of the Xiongnu troops, the 10,000 cavalry led by Huo Qubing were revealed.

He held the overlord halberd in his hand, and pointed before waving the halberd: "Departments, we want to use the blood of the Huns to engrave the invincible name of our Han army on this land!"

Above! ”

In the rear, the big tendons on the necks of Yao Zhao, Chen Qing, Fulu Zhi and others were stretched high, and the killing intent was on the head, and they rode forward wildly!
