Chapter Thirty-Nine: Accidentally Besieged

The flag is like a cloud, and the spear is like a forest.

Nowadays, it is most appropriate to use eight words to describe the grassland not far from Guluo City.

As the big battle was approaching, Jiang Qi gave an order, and the Jiang family's army, which was in a hurry to defend against the enemy, took the lead in occupying the highest point within several miles.

Although this hillside is not large, only thirty or forty hundred steps square, it is enough for the Jiang family's army to defend against the enemy. Of course, even if Jiang Jiajun was forced to defend against the enemy at the moment, everything was still going on in an orderly manner.

"Have you considered retreating to Guangyan City, although the Huns are menacing, but the humble position is sure to delay them for an hour, so that the army can retreat to the city、、、" As Jiang Qi inspected the defense, Xu Huang, who was leading the troops to desperately dig the dismount pit, pleaded.

"Ben Hou has also thought about it, but the casualties caused by the fall will definitely be greater than the nearby defense, and it is not advisable." Although Jiang Qi did not question Xu Huang's ability, Ren Ran did not take his advice, after all, the risk of returning to Guangyan was too great.

After finishing speaking, looking around at the surrounding terrain, Jiang Qi continued: "Gongming, judging from the terrain, the southeast side of your department is the most dangerous now, and Ben Hou will send you some strong crossbows later, remember!" Be sure to stick to the line of defense, and don't let a single Hu person cross before dark, can it be done? ”

"Rest assured, our department has always been a foot soldier, and attacking the city and forming a formation is the strength of our department, and Huang guarantees that no Hu person can cross the rejection formation of our department, even if he dies on the battlefield." Looking at the Pingchuan in front of the battle, Xu Huang solemnly assured.

"There is Gongming, Ben Hou rest assured, wait for Ben Hou to transfer Zilong to cover behind you, remember to be careful, after this battle Ben Hou will personally make wine for you、、、、"

"Thank you, the prince, I understand 、、、 humiliation"

"Report, enlighten the lord, probe the cavalry to report, the enemy army is ten miles away!" Just after Jiang Qi finished explaining to Xu Huang, he heard a report from his own soldiers.

"Command the three armies! Speed up, and within a stick of incense, you must retreat to your own formation, and then order the Qiuzi people to gather all their horses and retreat to the top of the slope、、、"

"No,"

"Lord, are these turtles reliable!?" After Jiang Qi finished ordering, Xun Yu, who was following on the side, asked a little uneasy.

As Xun Yu asked, Jiang Qi looked at Qiuzi, who was helping the Han army desperately dig a horse pit: "None of the Hu people can be trusted. Wen Ruo rest assured, although our army is now a big enemy, it is not enough that these Qiuzi people dare not mess around for the time being. Moreover, they also gained a lot of benefits in the battle a few days ago, and they killed a lot of slaughterers, and they would not be stupid enough to surrender immediately. ”

"That's right, although the lord has let the Qiuzi people take the lead and let them die a lot these days, but the lord has left them a lot of women and children, looking at the attitude of the old king of Qiuzi, you know that he is still afraid of the lord." was said by Jiang Qi, Xun Yu also remembered the appearance of the old king Baiba who flattered him all day long.

As the conversation continued, Jiang Qi continued to walk to the next battle formation, and at the same time said: "Okay, go and see how the Zhongxiao camp is, and when the battle starts, the Huns will suffer a loss in Gongming, and they will turn to Zhongxiao." It's okay for Zhong Xiao to charge with the kid, but he hasn't encountered the current battle, and it is inevitable that there will be mistakes、、、、"

"Although General Jiang Feng is young, he has a bit of a lord's appearance, don't worry, with General Taishi's divine arm battalion behind to assist, it should be foolproof."

The formation is proper and the morale is high, but Jiang Qi is inexplicably a little worried, he is more or less careless in such a situation today. Perhaps it was the big win that had always made him feel a little proud.

In the past, the war with Taiping Dao was almost a positional war, in the past, he heard that the grassland people came and went like the wind, and he also laughed, and now the Huns have taught him a good lesson.

Soldiers, the most important weapon of the country, must not be overlooked.

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

Just when Jiang Jiajun was in full swing to set up a temporary position, a cloud of smoke and dust drifted from the grassland a few miles away, and as the smoke and dust fell, the rumbling thunder followed one after another. With the roar of thunder, the earth began to tremble.

With trembling, a spectacular scene appeared, only to see tens of thousands of five-colored horses coming from the sky, constantly accelerating, galloping into the distance.

In the huge herd of horses, a big man with a wolf's head painted on one side is high in the sky, and a rough-looking man wearing animal skins is in the lead, and his head is proud and high-spirited. That seems to be the wolf king of the grassland, with a posture of contempt for the common people, and he is the Marquis of the Bone of the Subu Division.

Today's Xu Bu is slaughtering Ge Nai, as for the limelight of the Huns, it can be said that there is no other time, not to mention anything else, that is, this time to be able to gather more than half of the Xiongnu soldiers and horses, it is enough to overwhelm the Huns now in Qiangqu.

It can also be said that if this battle is won by Subu, then it will become a fact that he will become the next Xiongnu Shan Yu. Of course, no one blames Su Bu's behavior, after all, strong survival is the law of the grassland.

However, perhaps this time it was to bring all the elites of the Huns to fight, with the support of strong combat power, as soon as the battle was carried out, he was a little arrogant, and he originally heard the cavalry from thirty miles away to report the traces of the Jiang family's army, but he did not step up the pursuit but walked slowly, and did not speed up until ten miles of prescription.

"Subutouren, this time the army is swung in, our tribe can count on the headman, and when the time comes, we will cross the Great Wall, and we hope that the headman will give us some benefits." Seeing that he was about to engage the Han army, the leader of another tribe who had been following Subu was the first to negotiate the conditions.

"Don't worry! Weixu people, your tribe and our Subu Department have always been the best, and my Que clan is also your Weixu people, how can I forget you if there is a good thing. After defeating the Han army this time, the materials will be divided into 30% of you. Looking at the tribe that supported the troops the most, Su Bu immediately assured him.

"The head of the Xu Bu has your words, I will be the Marquis of Xu Gu and all the warriors of Wei Xu, will be your sharpest scimitar 、、、" received a satisfactory answer, and the Marquis of Wei Xu Gu immediately swore to the sky.

"Subutou people, don't forget our White Fox Tribe、、、、"

"Subu Tou, we should be warriors and always obey your orders、、、"

With the assurances of the Weixu tribe, the rest of the tribes that followed them spoke out their loyalty, fearing that they would be forgotten by Subu.

Being praised by the flattery of the rumors, Xu Bu immediately felt a little fluttering, and he even felt that he was now the Hun Shan Yu, and immediately waved his hand and said: "Everyone, please rest assured, as long as you win the battle, all the materials of the Han army will belong to all departments, and after the Great Wall, whether it is the money or women that have been robbed, they will belong to you、、、、"

"Hahaha, good, good, good, or the head of the bush is righteous,"

"In the future, our tribe will follow the Subutou people to eat meat、、、"

"Long live the Subutato 、、、"

As soon as Subu's reward came out, it aroused applause from all sides, and the rough men were excited, as if they were already sharing the fruits of victory at this moment.

Also under the generous promise, almost all the leaders of the Huns who came to fight forgot that the people who were fighting against them at this moment were not local chickens and dogs. On the contrary, it is a strong army that the rest of the tribes that were killed a few days ago are losing and retreating.

、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

The prairie sun in May is now shining, and it is noon, and the sun is shining on the earth at the hottest time of the day. But despite the unbearable heat, no one felt the slightest heat in the rolling hills of the grassland. In the midst of the flags and horses' legs like forests, there is a coldness, the coldness of death.

Before a stick of incense, more than 30,000 Huns and nearly 20,000 Jiang soldiers confronted each other here, and when they met for the first time, the two armies did not fight in a panic.

Of course, the reason why he is so polite is not that he is friendly, nor is it that Jiang Qi is polite, but the reason for the stalemate is entirely because the Huns, who are used to fighting in the field, have nowhere to say for a while when they see the Han army cowering like a hedgehog between the dirt slopes, and there are large and small horse traps in the newly turned dirt outside the Jiang family's army, which is enough to make Xu Bu annoyed.

Today's Jiang army has completed the battle formation before the arrival of the Xiongnu, all the war horses have retreated to the upper slope, and the cavalry has been changed to infantry to deploy at the bottom of the slope.

In the battle array, Jiang Feng's battalion guarded the front with chariots and bed crossbows, and Tai Shici's battalion swept the formation with a longbow. The Wenchou battalion guarded the left side with chariots, and the Yan Liang battalion dismounted to support the rear. The right side was guarded by Xu Huangying, and Zhao Yun covered it.

In the end, it was uneven, not suitable for cavalry charges, and it was also the safest back, Jiang Qi left it to the Jiang Bo Heavy Camp who escorted the material, and placed the Qilin Guard here just in case.

Not to mention, looking at Jiang Jiajun from a distance now, looking at the spears densely scattered on the wall of the rejection horse, he really looks like a hedgehog.

But although the Jiang family's army was armed to the teeth at this moment, many soldiers were slightly timid when they saw the overwhelming Hun cavalry.

Not only ordinary soldiers, but also Jiang Qi, the general of the first army, was also scared after looking at the clouds of cavalry and the deafening sound of horses' hooves.

Although Jiang Qi can be regarded as experienced in a hundred battles, but there are few horses in the Han land, since joining the army, it is the first time he has seen so many cavalry running, and the momentum of tens of thousands of war horses rushing together can be described as shock.

Looking at the black-pressed war horses and listening to the sound of the Huns' horns echoing in the air, Jiang Qi swore in his heart that one day he would have so many cavalry, and they were a hundred times more elite than the Huns.

But thinking about it, looking at the slight vibration in this formation, Jiang Qi could no longer sit back and watch the morale drop, and immediately ordered the war drums that had been prepared in the formation to be sounded immediately, and sang a melodious Qin dialect first.

'Do you say you have no clothes?' with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son! How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the son! How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son! ’

As Jiang Qi's singing sounded, first the Chinese army's personal guards began to echo, and then gradually spread.

Although many soldiers had not read the Book of Songs, this poem describing their comrades was quickly sung catchily, and with the singing, the Han army slowly stabilized, and all the fears of the soldiers gradually disappeared with the singing.

At this moment, as a veteran who has been baptized by blood and fire, he knows that all cowardice will let him die, and now the only thing he can believe in is the robe around him.

"Subutouren, didn't you say that General Kirin is very powerful! How can we see that our Subutou people have become turtles, and they are begging with their songs!? Listening to the low singing voice of the Han army and looking at the impermeable Han array, only Xu Guduhou flattered first.

"It seems that the Han army is nothing more than that, the Han people are timid, they are the lambs in the grassland, and he is not afraid when he encounters our jackals! Hahaha", when Yu Guduhou also laughed and agreed.

"It's okay for these Han people to study and fight? Everyone is greedy for life and afraid of death, and there will be an opponent for our tribe's warriors、、、、"

"Their emperors are all incompetent, they can't even manage their own people well, and they want to fight our great Huns, they are completely looking for death, today our warriors want to cut off the heads of these Han people to use as wine jugs、、、"

Listening to the words of the leaders of the tribes beside him, Xu Bu was also full of confidence, and immediately laughed and said: "Hahaha、、、 is right, only wolves eat sheep, and there is a truth that sheep eat wolves, originally the leader thought that Jiang Qi had two hits, but it seems that it is nothing more than that, and when he saw my tens of thousands of warriors, he shrank 、、、"

"But it's a bit of trouble for him to flinch, whatever! There are warriors of that tribe who are willing to break through the Han military camp! ”
