Chapter 191: The Power of the Immortal!
On April 18, Han Xin captured Weisu. Instead of continuing to attack Shanbei and Cheshi to the north, he turned to attack Yanqi.
On April 19, Han Xin had already crossed the vice-city of Yanqi Shacheng and did not stop, because it had been slaughtered by Wusun, and there was not a single living person to be found except for the rotting corpses in the city.
Arriving at the foot of Yanqi City, the defenders of Yanqi City were beyond Han Xin's expectations, there were more than 700 people, and Yanqi and Wusun had been fighting for many years, and the city wall was more than two zhang high, which was extremely strong. Han Xin was not afraid, but ordered the Qin merchants he met on the way, led the disguised Qin army to pretend to surrender to Wusun, and suddenly drew his sword when negotiating at the city gate, killing the defenders of Yanqi, and then occupied the city gate and slaughtered all the defenders of Wusun here.
During this period, there was a tongue man interpreter, and the Wusun defenders wanted to surrender, but before Han Xin could stop it, he was killed by Fan Xu, a knife under the account. In Fan Xu's words, the bird language is incomprehensible, just as they are provoking! Han Xin thought about it, but it was easy to have an accident if he kept a prisoner.
On April 21, Han Xin used the same method to capture Qiuzi.
Five days in a row to four countries and five cities! The news finally reached the ears of King Wusun, and King Wusun immediately ordered the army of Green Ridge to come back.
Also to Han Xin's expectation, there were still nearly 30,000 troops in the territory of Wusun Kingdom!
Han Xin knew that he had to defeat them quickly, otherwise once the troops from other parts of the Wusun Kingdom came to help and gathered together with the 30,000 army, he might not be able to win so easily.
If you were someone else, you must have already had the idea of retreating, and Han Xin was still thinking about winning!
After planning in detail, Han Xin immediately led 4,000 people straight to Chigu City, the capital of Wusun Kingdom, which was close to the Tianshan Mountains and not far from Qiuzi. As for the other more than 2,000 people who came from, Han Xin thought that in the name of avenging the countries of the Western Regions, he actually subdued people from Yanqi, Qiuzi and other countries into the Qin army, and used his tongue to convey orders, he was really a genius!
With locals leading the way, it was even more like an arm's arm, but it took only two days to arrive around Akaya Castle. As soon as he gathered an army of 30,000 and left Chigu City, he was intercepted and killed by Han Xin halfway. The sword of the Wusun army and the sword of Great Qin were cut off in an instant, plus the light crossbows and short knives that everyone was equipped with, compared to the Wusun army, the Qin army of nearly two thousand was like special forces!
At this time, the Qin army was already red-eyed, and they didn't feel tired at all, because they had already seen the title beckoning to them! In just half a day, Wusun's 30,000-strong army was already crushed, and after being killed more than 10,000, he directly threw flags and swords and fled in all directions.
On the other hand, Han Xin only lost 100 people, and he really defeated 100 people!
After that, he didn't dare to stop for a moment, and on the same day, he conquered Chigu Castle, captured alive the royal family of Wusun, Prince Xuanye, Prince Tok, etc., and immediately took Nandoumi to fight other cities in Wusun. The Qin army was brave, coupled with the difficult BUFF bonus, as if entering a no-man's land, it only took seven days to capture the entire territory of Wusun.
Wang Li was greatly surprised when he received Han Xin's military report, and he immediately divided his troops into 10,000 troops, and ordered Ding Chuan to lead the army to help occupy the city. After Han Xin captured Wusun, Ding Chuan had already led his army to the border of Wusun.
Han Xin rested for a day, and explained that Ding Chuan immediately occupied Wusun and guarded against Huxi, and then attacked the twelve kingdoms of Shanbei and Cheshi, and escorted the Wusun royal family back to the camp of the army.
When Ding Chuan asked Han Xin why he didn't attack the twelve countries, Han Xin replied truthfully: "The total of the twelve countries is only a thousand miles away, and it is not worth a trip for me Han Xin." ”
Ding Chuan has been completely impressed by Han Xin along the way, and he is even more admired when he hears the words. As a result, a partial general actually listened to the strategy of a military marquis and quickly acted according to Han Xin's orders.
Han Xin then attacked Yutou, Wensu, and Gumo after resting, and went down the Jishishui (Tarim River) to collect the canal plough and Yuli, and penetrated the Loulan country from behind to the south in the panic of the Wusun garrison of Loulan State.
When Wang Li, who was camped south of Youze, heard that a Qin army had suddenly appeared in the territory of Loulan Kingdom, he thought that something was wrong with his ears, didn't Han Xin just arrive in Wusun? Someone was immediately sent to investigate, and it was confirmed that it was nearly 4,000 people from Han Xin passing by.
Han Xin was only one hundred and sixty miles away from Wang Li, but Han Xin passed by him and did not return to his division, but only sent someone to report Wang Li and continue south.
In the Chinese military tent, looking at the military report sent by Han Xin and the report from the scout, Wang Li was already stunned, and rarely burst into a foul mouth: "Twenty-one days, destroying eleven countries and twenty-four cities, can you still recruit people from the Western Regions into the army for your own use, this is a fucking person?" ”
The news that Han Xin led 2,000 people to attack the north of the Tianshan Mountains had already spread all over the Qin army, and they all laughed at him for not measuring his own strength, and he wanted to capture such a vast land with 2,000 people, and he wanted to go crazy for military achievements!
But now that I heard about Han Xin's immortal exploits, I broke my thigh, and I secretly hated that it wasn't me who went with him......
Han Xin didn't know what Wang Li was thinking, regardless of anything else, so he led his army up the Cherchen River, and after successively capturing Ruoqiang, Shanshan, Jimo, and Xiaowan, he turned west to conquer Jingjue and Shumi, and finally led more than 1,000 Qin troops and more than 3,000 Western Regions troops, a total of more than 5,000 people, to stop at Shumi City east of the Khotan River.
Because further west is the Green Ridge, Han Xin's soldiers are like gods, so it is naturally impossible to send heads to the 30,000 Wusun, Huli cavalry and 20,000 Wusun infantry there.
However, there is no need for Han Xin to go to them, the Wusun and Huli armies in the Green Mountains have already received an order to return to the division, and they are about to cross the Khotanese River to return to Wusun.
Fortunately, Wang Li finally came to his senses, and immediately ordered the army to open after Han Xin captured Xiaowan, some of them to help defend the captured country, and some of them followed Han Xin to the west.
On the ninth day of the fifth month, Dahe's 30,000 cavalry was the first to arrive at Shumi, and brought Wang Li's general order: give Han Xin the right to act!
Wang Li finally got smart once!
When Usun's army arrived in Shumi, they couldn't wait to start attacking the city. While Han Xin ordered people to defend the city, he spread the news that Wusun had been defeated and that all the Wusun royal family had been captured.
The Wusun army was in turmoil in an instant, and between the hesitation of advancing and retreating, it was attacked from behind by Dahe, and the 50,000 Wusun army was annihilated!
As for the 20,000 cavalry of Huxi, seeing that the situation was not good, they directly abandoned the Wusun army and fled to the Green Ridge in a hurry.
Han Xin did not hesitate and consulted with Dahe, and Dahe led the cavalry across the Khotan River to pursue the Huqi cavalry, and he himself followed closely with his footmen.
Because the countries of the Green Mountains are all nomadic people, the role of foot soldiers is limited, and they can only be used to occupy. Han Xin originally wanted to go with Dahe to pursue the Huqian cavalry, but he was worried that Li Wei and Fan Xu would not be able to control the army mixed with the people of the Western Regions, so they could only stay and lead the army in person.
Twelve days later, all 11 kingdoms, including Shache, Puli, Yinai, and Dawan, were captured.
Dahe's cavalry chased to the border area of Kushan and Kangju, and Huxi's cavalry had fled all the way north back to the Hushan grassland.
