Xingwu for five years, the sixth day of the fourth month.

Recently, the most lively topic in the capital is how many Xiongnu annihilated by the 700,000 troops sent by the imperial court in the Xiongnu steppe.

It is said that the Huns who killed directly heard that Song fled.

It has completely escaped from the Xiongnu steppe to the desert further north.

In order to completely annihilate the Xiongnu, the 700,000 troops of the Great Song Dynasty directly blocked the border between the grassland and the desert for half a month, fearing that they would return to the grassland as soon as the army left.

This is the rhythm of starving and dying of thirst in the desert.

It is worth mentioning that when the army came to the court of the Xiongnu, it was found that the large army of the Xiongnu was not at home at all, but was taken by the Xiongnu Dadan Yutila to attack the Turks.

As a result, when the army cleaned up the tribes of the Turkic royal court and followed the trail, they found that the Turkic side also had the idea of the Xiongnu, and also sent people to attack the Turks.

As a result, the two sides met halfway through, and then unexpectedly fought.

After finding out the situation, the Song army immediately mobilized the Tatar army stationed in the Western Regions from the Western Regions to approach the place of the great battle between the two sides, and the Song army was also constantly approaching.

Finally, on March 17, the Song and Tatar coalition armies, totaling nearly 1.3 million troops, suddenly appeared and dumpled the Hun and Turkic armies that were fighting inextricably.

The two sides combined were close to two million troops, and in this way, the largest and largest number of people in the Western Regions launched a shocking war in the surrounding area in hundreds of years!

The war lasted two days and three nights before it finally came to an end, and it was not surprising that the Song-Tatar coalition army won the final victory, and the allied army suffered about 100,000 casualties in this war, most of them were Tatar injuries.

The Song army died relatively little, but there were many wounded, and nearly 300,000 people were injured to varying degrees.

But there will be only more on the Tatar side.

Of course, such heavy casualties and results will inevitably be no less.

Nearly 400,000 people on the Xiongnu Turkic side were originally surrounded and killed by the Song army after fighting with the Turks, and less than 150,000 survived in the end, except for more than 40,000 people who fled to the desert under the cover of the large army, and the rest all became prisoners of the Song army.

On the Turkic side, it was even worse, with 450,000 people, and after the battle, less than 100,000 were captured.

As for their Khan Mo Regan, he had already died in the chaos early the morning of the second day when the Song army appeared.

With nearly 200,000 captives, what to do with it is a big question.

However, after thinking about it, Ding Hongguang, who was the coach, directly ordered the 200,000 people to be buried alive.

He was ordered to come to annihilate the Huns, not to capture the prisoners.

Before leaving Beijing, His Majesty had explained that this time he would not be taken prisoner.

Wildfires burn inexhaustibly, and spring breezes blow and regenerate.

Now it is the Great Song Dynasty that has the upper hand and can suppress these Huns.

But he didn't dare to guarantee that the Great Song Dynasty would always be strong, if the Xiongnu were left behind now and not killed, and when they re-emerged in the future, it happened that the Great Song Dynasty was weak again, would it be difficult for the Great Song Dynasty to be bullied by the Xiongnu again?

If you want to kill, let's kill it clean! Make a clean sweep of!

If all the Jurchens were killed when Chenghua ploughed the court, where would there be thirteen pairs of wild boar skin armor later?

This is the end of the woe that remains!

Zhao Jun will never do this kind of business!

200,000 people buried alive!

This was an extremely cruel act of killing prisoners, but none of the officers and men in the army objected, and all of them carried out the order with cold expressions.

Most of them had experienced the invasion of the Xiongnu, and they also saw the sins they did during the invasion of the Xiongnu, so they naturally did not have any sympathy for the Xiongnu.

And the Tatars who watched this scene only felt cold all over their bodies, and their eyes involuntarily filled with fear when they looked at these Song people.

In the past, before Zhao Jun rose, they had the impression that Song Jun was as easy to bully as a lamb on the grassland, and he would not resist if he was bullied.

is the weakest being.

But looking at the current scene, they found that they were wrong, they were ruthless, the Song people were ruthless, they were really nothing.

Naturally, 200,000 people were not willing to be captured.

When they were driven down the pit, they found out what Song Jun wanted to do, and naturally they wanted to resist.

But how could Ding Hongguang be defenseless.

They had been hungry for a day, and they had no strength in the first place.

When he let them go to the pit, he also deliberately mobilized the crossbows of the whole army, and once anyone resisted, it would rain down with arrows and shoot them directly.

After killing the waves of thorns who wanted to resist, the remaining Huns were desperate.

They stopped resisting, and sat in the pit wailing and waiting for death to come.

After a day, the grass that had been dug out of a large pit was covered with dirt.

However, the area has become much taller than before, forming a tuqiu that resembles a hill pack.

In order to avoid that there were still living people below, Ding Hongguang also deliberately mobilized 50,000 cavalry to gallop back and forth on the entire earthen bag for a full hour!

It was not until the ground was soaked with red liquid that it finally stopped.

Looking at the ground in front of them, which was much smoother than just now, the Song soldiers all thought that the grass here would definitely grow unusually lush next year.

After dealing with the captives, Ding Hongguang wanted to chase people into the desert with people and continue to chase and kill Tila and others who fled to the desert.

It's just that after going deep into the desert for half a day, I found that it was easy to get lost, so I had to retreat.

But it was along the entire desert and steppe border that a guard post was arranged, and a million-strong army was stationed in this way.

He didn't believe how long Natila could stay in the desert without much food, grass and water.

As long as they get out, he can kill him, and if they don't come out, then starve them to death inside!

Anyway, in order to annihilate them this time, he had already made enough preparations earlier, and the grain, grass, and water sources in the rear were constantly being sent from afar, and he Ding Hongguang was not in a hurry!

……

The sixth day of the fourth month.

It has been half a month since Tila fled into the desert with his people, and in the past half a month, they have encountered all kinds of dangers, and the 40,000 people who were originally brought into the desert are now less than 30,000.

It wasn't for the luck of encountering an oasis, and they had been starved to death more than ten days ago.

But that oasis alone wasn't enough to sustain them for long.

There are tens of thousands of them.

It's that oasis that they're almost bald now, and if they can't leave, they're really going to starve to death here.

It's just that the spies sent by Tila to explore the situation on the grassland have never returned, and Tira understands that this must be the Song people who have killed the border, and the spies he sent out are afraid that they are already more than lucky.

But look at the army behind them, they can't stay in this desert any longer.

He didn't know how long the Song army would have to stay on the grassland border, and he didn't know if they would be able to hold out until the Song army left.

But he knew that his time was running out.

He can't afford to gamble!

For the sake of today's plan, since the grassland can't go back, then he can only find another way to survive.

If you can't go south, you can only go north!

Looking at the yellow sand in the north, Tira's eyes gradually became firm.

A day later, the remnants of the 30,000 Huns completely bare the discovered oasis, and then resolutely left for the desert in the north.

Now they can only live to die.

Tila is gambling!

He gambled that before the army died, he could find a way for the Huns to survive!

Heading north, stepping into the unknown.

Little did the far north know that a pack of hungry wolves was approaching......
