Chapter 588 The two armies meet, my monk is right!
Poof!
A knife cut the throat of the Hun spies, and the monk gasped heavily, this is the second time today!
In the morning, they were actually caught up twice by the spies of the Huns, and after two bloody battles.
Looking up and looking around, there are now less than 1,000 people left after the 5,000 tribal warriors who broke off with them, and in the escape these days, there are constantly spies catching up, and they will inevitably be detected by the Huns, so they can only continue to fight with them and try their best to stay.
However, the repeated bloody battles and the continuous flight also made the broken tribal warriors lose their troops, and now they are not even one-fifth of the original.
The morale of everyone is very low, but they are not far in front of a large number of people from their own tribe, if they don't fight, their relatives and friends will be caught up by the Huns, so even if the morale is low, these soldiers can only grit their teeth and hold on.
After the last spy was eliminated, one of the tribal commanders stepped forward, took out the kettle from his bosom and handed it to the monk, and said:
"Khan, the time for spies to catch up has been getting shorter and shorter lately, and the frequency has been getting faster and faster, and they came twice this morning.
This shows that the large army of the Xiongnu is already very close to us, and the support from Yunzhou County has not yet arrived?
In our current situation, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long. ”
The monk opened the lid of the kettle and drank the water, but after only two sips, he found that there was no water, but his mouth was still dry.
Reluctantly handed the kettle back and said:
"If you can't stop it, you have to block it, the clansmen are all in front, we can't watch the Huns slaughter the clansmen, right?
As for Yunzhou County, I haven't received any news in the past two days, but I heard two days ago that it is less than 400 miles away from us, and I think it's coming soon.
If you keep persisting, by the way, will everyone have run out of water? ”
The commander sighed and insisted on persevering, how easy it was to say.
But when the Khan asked about water, he immediately replied: "Everyone is almost exhausted of water, but in a dozen miles we will reach a stream, and we will have to replenish it somewhere." ”
Hearing that there was a stream ahead, the monk's eyes immediately lit up, nodded and ordered: "Then let the soldiers quickly clean up the battlefield, leave what can be used, and throw away what can't be used, and hurry up to replenish the water, otherwise the soldiers will die of thirst, where will they still have the strength to fight?" ”
The commander nodded, and the team quickly cleared the battlefield and galloped towards the stream.
And less than fifty miles behind them, the 200,000 cavalry army of the Huns was also rushing forward.
"Report! Tell King Zuo Xian that only three of the spies we sent out have returned, and the two hundred-man teams in the south have lost contact, so they should have run into the Tuli Roots who were fleeing! ”
While the army was marching, a horse returned from the front at a rapid pace, came to the side of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King, and at the same time reported the information.
After hearing this, King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu immediately ordered:
"This time we lost contact so quickly, it seems that we are not far from the remnants of Turegan, and the herald army is speeding up due south!
This time, we're going to get rid of this cunning Soil Root Rabbit thoroughly!
Eternal Heaven bless! ”
"Roar, roar, roar! Eternal Heaven bless! ”
The army monsters screamed in unison, and the words of the immortal heaven blessed.
Then they sped up again and chased forward, they had been chasing for almost half a month in order to chase this soil root, and they were finally about to catch up, these damn Tatars could really fucking run, and when they caught them, they would break their legs as soon as possible, and see if they could still run!
……
Finally, after advancing for more than ten miles, far away from the stream, the monk saw the sparkling water in the distance, and his throat rolled unconsciously, and then the speed of the horse was much faster.
These days of fleeing are not only tired of people, but also of horses, and the horses do not need to be urged to speed up their pace when they see the water source.
Soon the team came to the stream, and there were some animals such as hares drinking water next to the stream, but when they noticed the arrival of the monks, the gray rabbit's gray rabbit ears trembled and they quickly ran away.
When they came to the stream, the monk was about to tell everyone to fetch water, when suddenly he heard a call!
"Abu!"
This familiar call immediately made the monk stunned in place, and his movements were also frozen.
The rest of the crowd also heard the call, and looked up in the direction from which the voice came from in amazement.
Immediately, they saw that there were many figures on the high slope not far ahead, and if they looked closely, shouldn't this be the clansmen who should be dozens of miles away from them?
Why are they still here?
And the one who shouted Abu just now was the only son of the Sangha, the little khan of the Tuligan tribe - Sirinud Turigan.
Little Sirinud was just eleven years old, and when he fled, he was arranged by the monks to follow him to Eji.
However, now it was only him who appeared, which not only made the monks panic when they appeared.
Why are they here?
Now the Huns are very close to them, but they are still here, and when the Huns catch up, they can't run away.
What the hell is going on?
A series of ideas were constantly swirling in the minds of the monks, and all kinds of dangerous possibilities were constantly being thought up and overturned.
However, little Sirinud didn't know that Abu was brainstorming at the moment, and happily rushed down the hillside with the others, came to the monk's side, hugged his Abu's thigh, and shouted happily:
"Abu, it's great that you're okay!"
The monk turned over and dismounted with a calm face, and then slapped him hard!
"Why are you staying here, you Eji?"
Sirinud, who was originally happy, was stunned by his father's sudden slap.
In the next second, tears filled his eyes in an instant, but under the cold gaze of the monk, he never dared to shed them, because Abu had said that the men of Tuligan were not allowed to shed tears.
If he dared to shed tears, Abu's next slap would definitely fall with him, and he would not hesitate for a moment.
Although aggrieved, little Sirinud still explained: "Abu, we have met the Yunzhou army, Abu and they are all on the other side of the hill. ”
As soon as the monk heard this, his originally frowning brow instantly relaxed, and he understood that he had wrongly blamed his son.
However, his father's majesty did not allow him to admit his mistake, and he raised his hand and rubbed little Sichenud's head to express his apology.
And at this moment, after the tribesmen of Tuligan on the hillside came down, a group of figures wearing pitch-black iron armor appeared and rushed down, and the moment they saw these people's equipment, the monk's heart was finally relieved.
The ironclad heavy cavalry of the Yunzhou Army had seen it during the military parade the year before last.
After more than ten breaths, this team of ironclad heavy cavalry of about thirteen people came to the side of the monk, and the incomparable momentum carried when they rushed forward even though there were only thirteen people, which also made the monk and the others nervous for a while, but then they showed joy again.
They have seen the heavy cavalry of the Huns, in comparison, these heavy cavalry of the Yunzhou army are obviously stronger, after all, even the horses are armored, which is not possible except for the financial resources of Yunzhou County.
The Thirteen Horsemen came to his side, and before the monk could say anything, the knight at the head raised his visor, revealing the face inside that made the monk feel somewhat familiar.
Then I heard the man smile and clasp his fists and say: "Li Dingguo, the deputy general of the Yunlu Army, has seen the monk Khan!" ”
Seng Ge finally remembered who this person was, he had seen this person when he went to Yunzhou County to pay tribute last year, and he was a senior general in the Yunlu Army, which was known as the strongest army in Yunzhou Army.
But didn't he remember that the deputy general of Yun Lujun was surnamed Cao? How did it become him?
However, no matter what he thought at this moment, the monk immediately touched his chest with one hand and bent down slightly to salute in return: "Tuligan monk Tuligan, I have seen General Li!" ”
After the two sides greeted each other, the monk couldn't wait to ask: "General Li, but the Yunzhou army has arrived?" ”
Li Dingguo nodded: "This time, the prince sent 100,000 troops to come, except for 5,000 people who are ambushed here, the rest of the people are three miles away and can come at any time, and most of the clansmen of your tribe are also arranged over there." ”
"One hundred thousand?"
Monk Ge was a little stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "The Huns have sent 200,000 troops, including 2,000 armored heavy cavalry, is only 100,000 enough?" ”
Regarding his worries, Li Dingguo showed a confident smile.
"The 100,000 mentioned below refers to 50,000 regular troops and 50,000 ironclad heavy cavalry soldiers, in addition to more than 200,000 auxiliaries.
There are only 200,000 Huns, and there are only 2,000 ironclad heavy horsemen, so this time we will let them have no return!
Let those Huns know who this grassland is, and the land of our prince here is not a place where they can come if they want to, and they can walk if they want! ”
"What! 50,000 ironclad heavy riders! ”
When he heard the words of 50,000 ironclad heavy riders, the monk only felt his brain dizzy.
The Huns were only 2,000 ironclad heavy cavalry, and they had no power to fight back.
Yunzhou County actually pulled out 50,000 at once!
Is this the power that the Heavenly Khan has?
Compared to those tribes who surrendered to the Xiongnu, this is ...... Got it right?!
Excitement began to spring up uncontrollably!
Eternal Heaven blesses!!
