Chapter Ninety-Four: Kill! Kill! Kill!
"General, reorganize the army, I'll do my best!" Li Shiqi nodded when he heard this.
To tell the truth, Han Xin's arrogance has never been concealed, if it weren't for the fact that Li Shiqi and Han Xin were both Zhao Simen's guests, Li Shiqizhen and Han Xin would not get along.
Who is he?
Goyang drunkard!
is notoriously crazy, but obviously, Han Shin is crazier than him.
Historically, these two buddies still have grievances, and it is not easy to barely get along now.
Under the escort of Xiang Yu, Li Shiqi once again shot his horse and went straight to the Xiongnu.
And Han Shin also began to mobilize his troops.
……
"I will restrain the tribe, obey the orders of the generals of the kingdom, and ask General Han Xin to let it go!"
Things went smoothly a little beyond Li Shiqi's imagination.
Although he was not optimistic that Han Xin's proposal to lead the Xiongnu would succeed, Li Shiqi would also do his best, and he was ready to speak hard, but what Li Shiqi didn't expect was that the Xiongnu Shan Yu Maodun would agree to Han Xin's slightly rude request so easily.
"Please join forces with the Xiongnu as soon as possible, and I will mobilize the tribe sons and prepare to go on the expedition!"
The Huns' buttocks were not hot when they came to eat, and they were going back to report again.
Fortunately, this time it was much faster, and Han Xin led an army of 10,000 people to the halfway point.
It took about half a day, and when it was getting late, Han Xin led an army of 10,000 to finally arrive at the Xiongnu station.
After a slight observation, Han Shin ordered the whole army to set up camp in areas that were convenient for moving to areas that were not easy to attack, and then began to make a single connection with Maodun.
"The general defeated the 8,000 people of Donghu with 1,000 soldiers and horses, and he has long heard of the general's prestige, and today he finally saw the general, and it is really majestic and majestic, which is heartbreaking!"
Unexpectedly, Mao Dun, as a Xiongnu, only brought eighteen horsemen and went directly to the garrison of the Qin soldiers' army and visited Han Xin in person.
The mouth is eager, quite like a broken corporal.
But Mao Dun's praise is not just flattery, Han Xin is more than 1.8 meters tall, he is definitely tall and mighty, and his appearance is also dignified, otherwise he would not have been appointed by Xiang Yu as the halberd under the account.
Objectively speaking, Xiang Yu was not bad to Han Xin in history.
An outsider, directly promoted to a personal soldier, or a halberd who decorates the façade, is equivalent to the guard at the commander's door, for ordinary people, Xiang Yu's arrangement of Han Xin is not stingy.
But Han Xin was too arrogant, although he did not make meritorious deeds, but in his heart, he thought that he should come up and take charge of the army.
Later, Han Xin ran away to Liu Bang, but he didn't make an inch, so he rushed to take charge of the whole army, and normal rulers would definitely not agree......
If it weren't for Xiao He's role as a guarantor, and with Han Xin's arrogance of just wanting to ascend to the sky in one step, it would be difficult to show his talent anywhere.
Therefore, Han Xin naturally acquiesced in Maudun's flattery.
"Are the Xiongnu tribes properly requisitioned?" Han Xin looked at Mao Dun and asked straight to the point.
"The call has been ordered, but it will take some time, and if nothing else, the troops can be mobilized tomorrow." Maudon spoke.
"Soldiers, move quickly, leave tonight!" Han Xin shook his head.
"It just takes a whole day to cross here, and it is just evening to set off tonight, and it is just evening when I arrive in Donghu, which is the time when the herdsmen return home from grazing, so I take this opportunity to go straight to Huanglong and enter the Donghu royal court." Han Xin said.
"I'm afraid it's a little reluctant to leave tonight......" Mao Dun shook his head, with a little reluctance on his face.
"Take me to the account of the king of the Huns, and you go and gather your subordinates!" Han Xin glanced at Mao Dun.
Mao Dun pondered for a moment and nodded, and after a while, Han Xinfu took Xiang Yu and a few accompanying knights to the account of the king of the Huns.
Mao Dun convened the ministers under his account to discuss the matter and carry out mobilization and requisition.
"Donghu insulted me too much, first snatched my BMW, then robbed my woman, and now wants to claim the land of the Huns, I have made up my mind, blitz Donghu tonight!" Maudun opened his mouth to speak.
"Single ......"
There are responders under him, and naturally there are opponents.
The cliché, after all, Mao Dun has not yet gone on a killing spree, so it is naturally impossible for only the same voice to be left here.
All of a sudden, there was a lot of noise in the tent.
Generally speaking, it is still the majority who are in favor of sending troops, and it is a minority who oppose sending troops to wait and see, after all, the envoys of Donghu have been killed by the envoys of Qin, and the Xiongnu have no second choice.
Even if you don't want to use troops, it's just a wait-and-see suggestion.
"The Xiongnu and Qin have signed an alliance, agreed to be the country of uncles and nephews, and now the Xiongnu are in danger, and the Great Qin sent troops to help, but the Xiongnu want to wait and see, and have never heard of the truth that the master is disloyal."
Han Xin stood up from Mao Dun in time to come to the main seat of the camp, and then looked at Xiang Yu who was standing beside him.
Xiang Yu comprehended, and drew his sword in an instant.
Soon!
There was only one voice left in the tent!
In terms of personal martial arts alone, Xiang Yu killed all the dozens of people in the camp without blinking, not to mention a dozen oppositionists?
The Qin people openly killed people in the Xiongnu king's tent, even if they killed the opposition, it also caused public outrage, and the Xiongnu present all looked at each other angrily, but they still hesitated a little when they looked at Xiang Yu, who was stiffly pinched into a cloth bag and had a burly body.
All eyes were on Maudun.
"From the moment Donghu asked the Xiongnu for land, the Xiongnu and Donghu were already incompatible!"
"Since the Xiongnu have signed an alliance with Great Qin, they should not be betrayed, it is my attention to send troops to attack Donghu, I have decided to hand over the army to the commander of the Qin generals, you should treat his orders as if they were my orders." Mao Dun opened his mouth to make a statement and characterize the matter.
"Herald! Gather all the tribes, and all those in the country who are dragging their feet will be beheaded! ”
After Maudun endorsed the legitimacy of Commander Han Shin, Han Shin issued his first military order.
Xiang Yu killed in front of the public, Mao Dun opened his mouth to endorse, and everyone did not dare to disobey Han Xin's order, although they were slightly dissatisfied in their hearts, but Han Xin's leadership was also confirmed.
After all, Han Xin had 10,000 elite soldiers in his hands.
And in Maudun's hands, there are also 10,000 people who can only obey his orders.
The Xiongnu were tribal, but Mao Dun was a masterpiece, and the integration of forces was better than that of Touman, so it was more convenient for Han Xin to command.
Because they had already killed people, the people present did not dare to slack off, and they went to gather the tribal warriors and follow Han Xin to lead the troops into battle.
Han Shin made a simple inventory.
The total number of troops temporarily mobilized was about 60,000.
Of these, 30,000 were soldiers and horses directly belonging to Maudun, and the other 30,000 were made up by various tribes.
Among the 60,000 soldiers and horses, only the 10,000 soldiers and horses trained by Mao Dun himself can be regarded as elite soldiers, and the rest can only be said to be a rabble.
With a population of more than 400,000 Xiongnu, it is already quite considerable to be able to temporarily mobilize so many troops, which shows that Mao Dun is definitely a rare talent, which is almost the limit of the Xiongnu riot army.
Any more would be one or two thousand more rabble.
Plus 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Qin State.
The total number of troops is 70,000, of which 10,000 are absolute elite soldiers, 10,000 ordinary elites, and 50,000 rabble.
This is the norm on the grassland, except for a little more horses, the grassland weapons and equipment are not good, most of them are rabble, Donghu claims to have 200,000 people who control the strings, and may not be able to take out 20,000 elite soldiers.
However, because it is a nomadic people, although the weapons and equipment are not good, there are a lot of horses, and on average, they can also do one person and three horses, which has fully met the needs of rapid marches.
"Abandon half of the ......baggage" After Han Xin's review was completed, the first order was issued.
The Xiongnu can also be regarded as a typical example of self-brought heavy weapons and equipment.
This is mostly the case with conscripts.
However, too much baggage will slow down the march, and in Han Xin's opinion, more than half of these baggage can be discarded.
It only needs to be enough to cross the baggage of thousands of miles of no man's land, and when you reach the boundary of Donghu, you will be eaten by the enemy.
Although everyone was dissatisfied, they did not dare to refute it, and obeyed Han Xin's order to discard half of the baggage.
Han Xin nodded, arranged the troops, and used the 10,000 elites of the Qin soldiers as the supervising team and the battlefield limiter, so as to ensure that there would be no possibility of getting out of control and set off in the night.
The army marches quickly......
All the way across thousands of miles of no-man's land.
The situation went well, and the Huns came prepared in the true sense of the word.
Maudun had figured out the route of the march in this no-man's land a long time ago, and even if it was dark, it would not matter.
Because of the abandonment of a large amount of baggage, the clear route, and the fact that this no-man's land was considered the territory of the Huns, the rapid march was very fast, and the average daily marching speed reached nearly 80 kilometers.
On the seventh day, the earthen chamber that Donghu had set up for defense high on the border was already close at hand.
This section is considered a buffer zone, the terrain is somewhat undulating, and Donghu occupies a high place and sets up a lot of earthen chambers for defense.
Han Shin took a brief look at the telescope and found that many earthen chambers had been deserted and abandoned.
There are hundreds of earthen rooms in total, and I'm afraid there are only a dozen of them still in use.
After all, this place does not grow hair, and the Huns have always been cowardly, so it makes no difference whether they keep it or not.
Because he was worried that the telescope was not clear enough, Han Xin sent Xiang Yu to lead fifty light horsemen to investigate.
Xiang Yu received the order, and after approaching in a simple detour, he found that the other party was not many in number, and without asking Han Xin at all, he directly led fifty light horsemen to rush straight into the enemy formation.
There are very few Donghu herdsmen stationed on the entire border, and there are only more than 600 people in total, of which there are probably only more than 100 real soldiers, and the rest are herdsmen who have been forcibly relocated.
Although Xiang Yu only had fifty people, he still chose to be reckless.
There is mental calculation and unintentionality, there is preparation to play unprepared, and it is still the side that plays with lax defense.
The tenfold difference in numbers doesn't mean anything to Xiang Yu.
On such a small-scale battlefield, he is a god in the true sense of the word!
Xiang Yu, who was holding a halberd, almost single-handedly killed more than sixty enemies, and fifty light horsemen almost sixty followed Xiang Yu to rush a few laps, and the other party was completely empty.
Only a few people were left alive because Xiang Yu's subordinates were merciful, and they needed to collect intelligence.
A few live mouths were easily pried open by the Huns.
The situation here is also briefly introduced.
It turns out that a long time ago, Donghu still attached great importance to the precautions here.
Therefore, a lot of earthen chambers were built here for guarding, after all, it was too close to the royal court of Donghu.
But this place is barren and no one wants to come, so the king of Donghu can only force the tribes to rotate and move.
Basically, it changes every year, and it is guaranteed that the number of defenders here will increase by 5,000 every year.
After all, the Huns in the Touman period were still quite capable of fighting before they were seriously injured.
But later Touman died, the Xiongnu were greatly injured, and the new king of Maodun succeeded to the throne, so the king of Donghu despised it.
In addition, Mao Dun sacrificed horses and women, and looked cowardly and incompetent, so the defense here was quickly relaxed.
There are still tribes that are forcibly relocated here every year, but there are policies and countermeasures.
Anyway, it is impossible for the Xiongnu to take the initiative to attack, and the tribes on duty will sneak east for one or two hundred miles after they move over, and then leave a few hundred people to live here and pretend to be, but in fact, the real tribes are here more than a hundred miles east where there are water and grass.
If the king of Donghu doesn't check, then he will be fooled.
If the king of Donghu checked, he would have walked out for a distance of more than 100 miles, and he would have rushed back in a day or two, and he was designated to let him see the scene of all the guards before the king of Donghu sent someone to inspect.
And even if he is accidentally found out for a while, he will not be punished, after all, no one will think that the Xiongnu led by Mao Dun dare to take the initiative to attack Donghu.
Now the change of defense in this place has even become a means for the king of Donghu to punish the tribes, and the obedient ones will not be used, and the disobedient ones will eat the soil for two years......
"More than 5,000 people...... More than a hundred miles" Han Xin smiled.
Since they could not be stopped in the first place, let them continue to graze in the east.
Their goal was the royal court, and there was no need to eat each other.
"Continue to march according to the original plan, and within three days, attack the Donghu Royal Court!" Han Shin called the shots.
The rapid march, or rather the sweep, began!
70,000 horses rushed out of the no-man's land, broke through the defense of Donghu about equal to zero, and went straight to the Donghu royal court.
Rush all the way and kill all the way!
Whenever you encounter a tribe, you will be wiped out directly, leaving no living mouth.
During this period, Han Xin showed astonishing decisiveness, ordering everyone not to collect any booty, and not to dismount except for rest time.
People killed, but the bag was not licked!
Keep walking after killing!
There are many large and small tribes in the middle, which can be described as bloody and bloody!
Bandit? No, they are not robbers, they are butchers who kill.
In addition to the necessary food and water, the 70,000 horses did not move at all.
Of course, it was not because of how obedient the Huns were, but because Han Xin had 10,000 Qin soldiers as a supervising team.
Han Xin gave the overseer team the highest authority, and he was not merciful in killing people.
Because he did not leave a living mouth, and he had been in a state of rapid marching, he did not delay the slightest speed, so when the news of the arrival of the Xiongnu army reached the ears of the king of Donghu, the army was less than sixty miles away from the court of the king of Donghu.
Hurry up!
Half a day!
"Herald! Fast! Fast! Quick, gather all the ministries! "King Donghu can't think about why the Huns killed so quickly!
The 70,000 Xiongnu army is only a few dozen miles away from here in a straight line.
And it's shrinking!
