Chapter 601: Outflanking Touman

The morning sun is rising, the wind is howling on the grassland, and the land in the north is burning.

Against the backdrop of the dazzling fire and smoke in the distance, the two cavalry stood opposite each other on the grassland, and the air of slaughter and tension filled with each other.

The two sides are opposed, but the nomadic side is a little timid.

These Huns, who had traveled dozens of miles, swallowed their saliva involuntarily, and the horses that sat down were spitting white gas while pacing with anxious horses' hooves.

On the opposite side of them was a standing and mountain-like phalanx of cavalry.

"Qin Jun!"

Tou Manshan Yu took a hard breath of hot air.

He guessed right!

This grassland fire was really set by the Qin army!

Zhao Tuo took advantage of the Xiongnu night attack on the Qin camp, and secretly sent the Qin cavalry to attack the depths of the grassland and set fire to the plain, everything was the same as he guessed.

The only difference is that Tou Manshan misestimated the number of Qin troops.

I thought that the cavalry who set the fire was no more than a hundred, a thousand, or at most ten thousand.

But the cavalry of the Qin army in front of him was huge, they were arranged in a neat formation, and from a distance, there was a huge sense of oppression.

Tou Manshan was a little confused.

He looked at the cavalry phalanx opposite, although the cavalry in the rear was blocked by the people in front, and he could only see the crowds, and he couldn't see the specific number and appearance, but judging from his past experience, the other side had at least twenty-five thousand, or even more than thirty thousand horsemen!

Tou Manshan couldn't figure out this question, where did the Qin people get so many cavalry?

"Da Danyu, what should we do now?"

The right general, Yi Hanxie, rode his horse to Touman's side, and since he was broken by the Qin army by the river, he has been following Shan Yu's actions.

"What should I do?"

Tou Man Shan Yu also asked himself, he looked back, and saw a mess behind him.

Although the Xiongnu and the Yue clan had 80,000 horsemen, they rushed over in the night all the way, and it was impossible to maintain their formation.

The whole team stretched into a large line, the elite of the royal court and the right valley Li Wang ran at the front, the left valley Li Wang and the other small nobles were in the middle, and the last was the 20,000 Yue clan cavalry, stretching from front to back for one or twenty miles.

And because of the long-distance running, both people and horses are tired and panting, and the combat effectiveness in this state can be imagined.

After the Qin army set fire, a huge number of cavalry phalanxes lined up in the middle of the way, looking like they were waiting for their arrival.

There are two options in front of Tou Mandanyu.

Fighting, with the Hun cavalry now the whole army is tired and not assembled, the military strength is not superior, and the probability of victory is not high.

Escape, once Tou Manshan Yu led people to escape, the Qin army must cover up and follow, with the current state of the Huns, as long as they start to escape, there will be no chance to fight and resist, they will only be killed by the Qin people all the way like a flock of sheep chased by wolves.

"No, I still have a choice."

Tou Manshan gritted his teeth and pointed to the rear of the Qin cavalry, the gorgeous handsome flag fluttering on a small mound, and the figures of several horseback riders under that handsome banner.

"Even if the commander of this cavalry is not Zhao Tuo, he must be a general under his command. Send someone over and tell them that as long as the Qin army promises not to kill, we are willing to dismount and surrender! ”

Yi Han Xie and Su Budang, who had just come over on horseback, were shocked.

What's the situation, the Qin army just set fire to your Touman's hometown, and as a result, you saw that the cavalry of the Qin army didn't want to take revenge, and surrendered on the spot?

Toumanshan Yu roared, "This is stalling for time, whether they believe it or not, at least the messengers can buy us some rest time for our warriors and horses while waiting for the army in the rear to arrive." ”

"The Qin army has a maximum of 30,000 horsemen, and when my 80,000 horsemen arrive, even if the grassland warriors are tired, will they still lose if they beat him with 80,000 on this grassland?"

Hearing this, Subu's eyes lit up.

What a big single Yu, really cunning and treacherous!

However, the reality is that before the Huns could send an envoy of fraudulent surrender again.

The cavalry formation of the Qin army moved, and they were not given a chance at all.

I saw that in the midst of the shouts, the cavalry of the Qin army in the middle parted on both sides, revealing a passage.

The sound of rumbling horses' hooves sounded, and a group of heavily armored cavalry slowly stepped out of the formation.

The direction in which it is moving is exactly where the Eagle Banner is.

At the same time, the large cavalry formation of the Qin army began to disperse, and the drums of the attack had been beaten.

At the rear of the cavalry phalanx, the Qin army specially chose a small mound where you could look into the distance.

The general's banner hunted in the wind.

Zhao Tuo held the clairvoyant mirror and stared at the expression of the man wearing the eagle crown in the distance.

"Hehe, Touman must be surprised now, I didn't expect that my Great Qin's cavalry was waiting for him to come by throwing himself into the net. This guy is really a stupid wolf, and now our army is waiting for work, just in time to break the enemy with one blow! Chen Ping rubbed his hands excitedly and kept muttering.

This was the largest cavalry battle he had participated in, even surpassing the previous battle of Qin Yue, so he was naturally very excited.

Zhao Tuo put down the clairvoyant mirror and looked at the battle situation in the distance with his naked eye.

The cavalry of the Qin army began to change formation in the sound of drums, with 500 heavy cavalry as arrows, and 10,000 light cavalry of the Qin army followed, attacking from the front.

The 20,000 Yueshi cavalry hidden behind the phalanx, receiving the order, rushed out from the rear, divided into two wings, 10,000 cavalry in one direction, and began to outflank the Huns from the left and right sides.

Zhao Tuo looked at the gorgeous eagle banner in the Hun array, and said with a chuckle: "Touman is too anxious, he is worried about Touman City and the people and livestock, rushing to the front, this time it gives me the opportunity to capture the thief and capture the king first." As long as he broke his royal army first and captured him, the rest of the Huns would be nothing more than a plate of scattered sand. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the red-hot sky in the north.

This fire was the trap he had to lure the wolf king back.

Attacking the enemy must be saved, which is the mystery of the art of war.

At the same time, in the face of the sudden attack of the Qin army, Tou Manshan Yu, Yi Han Xie, Su Budang and others were all stunned.

Not only because there was a problem with their plans, but also because they saw clearly the cavalry running out from the rear of the Qin cavalry, running to the left and right, trying to outflank their cavalry.

It was a group of grassland herders wearing fur coats and felt hats.

Yi Han was dumbfounded: "Yue's people! ”

Xu Budang shouted: "The Qin army has absorbed the Yue Clan! ”

The doubts were answered, and they finally knew why the Qin people had such a large number of cavalry.

But at the same time, new worries also climbed into Toumandanyu's heart.

There are a large number of Yueshi people in the Qin army, and Su Jiasha, who defected to the Xiongnu, and the 20,000 Yueshi cavalry under her command will be marked with a question mark.

Tou Man's face was as black as charcoal, and he felt a tingling pain in his heart.

There is a problem with his big clan!

However, this thought only existed in his mind for a moment, and he threw it out.

In the face of the attack launched by the Qin army, let's survive first!

"Su Budang, if you want to live, bring someone to rush forward for me. The cavalry of the Qin army is not the opponent of my grassland warriors, break the cavalry of the Qin army from the front, and capture or kill the people under the Qin flag, and we will live! ”

Tou Manshan Yu shouted loudly, pointing to the rear of the Qin cavalry.

The right valley Liwang Su Budang's face was gloomy.

He and Tou Man Shan Yu's troops were running at the front of the team, and in the face of the attack launched by the Qin army at this moment, they were naturally the first to bear the brunt, and there was nowhere to escape, and now if they want to survive, I am afraid that they really have to rush forward.

In Su Budang's opinion, although the cavalry of the Qin people looked amazingly powerful and ready for work, they still had a fatal weakness.

Equestrianism!

In front of the Huns, who rode sheep and shot mice since childhood, and grew up riding horses and chasing foxes, the cavalry of the Qin army was essentially some horseback infantry, and they were by no means the opponents of the Hun warriors!

He took a deep breath, raised his hand and shouted, "Warriors of the Subu Tribe, charge with me!" Defeat the Qin army and capture and kill the enemy general! ”

"Kill!"

Seeing that they were outflanked by the Qin army, the Huns were bloody, and followed Xu Budang to start charging on horseback and met the Qin cavalry.

These people on horseback want to defeat the Qin army in the steppe horse battle with dignity, and teach the Qin people what real cavalry is!

……

About ten miles to the south from the place where the Qin army fought with the Xiongnu front, 20,000 Yue's cavalry were advancing.

They hung behind the team of the Wuluxu of the Liking of the Left Valley, and were running slowly, not fast, so that the horsepower was slightly preserved.

They were waiting for a signal.

A moment later, several fast horses came rushing forward.

These were the sentinels sent by the noble lady Sugartha to the front to investigate, and they brought the most important news.

"Noble girl, the fight has started!"
