Chapter 119: Threat
On the empty grassland, the two teams met unexpectedly and were stunned for a moment.
A group from south to north wore fur furs and felt hats.
In fact, it is just that the top of the hat is made of thin felt, the outside is woolen, and the inside is blue silk.
The front brim of the hat is covered with fox skin, and the back edge is a red wool fabric on the outside and a dark blue silk fabric on the inside.
The hat has ear protectors on both sides, is trimmed with fox skin, and is made of apricot-red satin on the inside and out.
There is a buckle on the top of the hat and a green ribbon on the ear guards.
The group of people from north to south was much more ordinary.
He wears an oval felt hat with only a black satin trim on the brim and no ornaments – similar to a modern Mongol cap.
This comparison, the gap comes out.
The group to the north immediately dismounted and shouted respectfully.
"What are they talking about?" Gao Yi, dressed as a Hun nobleman, asked.
After hearing this, one of the people beside him said: "On the other side is a person from the upper party, and I don't understand it well." ”
Gao Yi glared at him and said, "Can't you learn the Chinese language?" ”
I am just a martial artist who kills people, and it is good to know Xiongnu, and your requirements are too high.
"What does 'Tiergang' mean?" Gao Yi asked in a low voice.
"It seems to mean that you are going on a campaign."
"What about 'the bald man'?" Gao Yi asked again.
"Grab, catch."
When Gao Yi heard this, he was immediately furious, because "Shao Xun" was followed by the word "Shao Xun".
Is this to arrest Chen Gong? Good thief! It's not a small tone.
"Do it!" Gao Yi didn't want to listen to them anymore and said foul words, so he ordered.
The crowd couldn't wait, so they drew out their well-wound horned bows, and before the other side could react, they rode their horses and rushed over.
"Whoosh! Sou! The arrows broke through the air, knocking down more than a dozen people on the spot.
The other soldiers were divided into two groups, armed with spears, sabers, and iron swords, and outflanked.
The people on the opposite side also reacted.
This Nima is not a Xiongnu nobleman at all! It is likely that the Jin people pretended to be on the horse one after another.
At this moment, they realized the malice of being a dog.
Yes, dogs are not so easy to be.
As a Hun dog, he was born short when he saw his master, and it was necessary to dismount and salute. And you have to be respectful, otherwise you will be whipped at least and reduced to slavery at worst.
The group of people on the opposite side are well-dressed, and at first glance they are tribal leaders, and most of them still have official positions, how can the standard Hun nobles be compared to their group of requisitioned slaves?
But now it's a big loss!
After hurriedly getting on their horses, they showed a different tactics from the ordinary Huns and even the Qian.
Holding a small shield in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, he grabbed the horse's belly between his legs and suddenly met him.
Another part of the men were armed with horn bows, riding and shooting, and their heads were not bad, and in a few moments, they had already shot down several captured soldiers.
A fierce collision has unfolded.
The Qiang people skillfully used their shields to shoot the spears, and then swung their swords and slashed straight ahead, killing a Jin cavalry in an instant.
But before he could be happy, a spear stabbed obliquely, right in the chest and abdomen, and stabbed the man on the spot.
"Whoosh!" An arrow flew and hit the neck of the second Jin army horseman, who screamed and fell to the ground.
Another arrow flew from a distance, but before the people could dodge, they followed in the footsteps of the Jin soldiers and fell to the grass.
Gao Yi took the lead, holding a long lance, and killed two cavalrymen one after another, and when there was only a third person, the horse lance could not be drawn, so he abandoned it, pulled out the ring head knife from the sheath, and killed two people in a row when the thief crossed by the wrong horse.
Almost at the same time, there was a terrible wound on his body. The fur had been completely sliced open, and a lot of blood oozed from his chest, staining it into a bloody coat.
He didn't care at all, and continued to chase and kill the enemy, like a fierce god and evil ghost.
When the people saw this, they fled one after another.
The outflanked living troops from both sides took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and killed more than ten people one after another.
The rest of the people formed a formation in the distance, and after watching from a distance for a while, they turned their horses and fled for their lives.
The Capture Army took advantage of the situation to chase and kill for a while, and after killing several people again, they slowly withdrew their troops.
On the ground kneeling were seven or eight wounded soldiers, trembling and showing fear.
Most of them were wounded by arrows, and after falling off their horses, they were captured because they could not get up for a while.
"You're lucky." Gao Yi turned his horse back, first looked at the dozens of horsemen following him, then at the prisoners, and said, "That's it, bring the people back, and withdraw." ”
"Overseer, don't you deal with wounded and dead horses?" Someone asked.
"Nope! Let's go! Gao Yi gave the order without hesitation.
There were only a few dozen of them, and a group of people had just escaped, and the other side must have been prepared, and there was no possibility of a sneak attack.

Moreover, they didn't know the situation in the hinterland of the Xiongnu at all, and if they rashly killed them, there was a great possibility of ambush, and there was no need.
After the order was given, everyone obeyed, took the captives, and slowly disappeared on the horizon.
And just after they left, more than half an hour later, more than 200 cavalry rushed over and wandered on the edge of a messy battlefield.
The leader dismounted and inspected it, and even lay on the ground to look at the "fresh" horseshoe prints, and then waved his hand and led people to chase after him.
This chase was chased to the west.
When they finally embellished Gao Yi's group, the majestic figure of Heyang Beicheng also appeared in their eyes.
The leader Lerma stopped.
The horsemen also reined in their horses.
The wind was blowing quietly.
On the long pontoon bridge, there is an endless stream of people and vehicles.
At the head of the northern city, the flags were hula, and the armor shone with dazzling silver light.
Outside the city wall, inside the wall of sheep and horses, a group of people sent the exhausted war horses in, and then took the war horses that had been fed for a long time and were full of physical strength from the hands of the auxiliaries, as if they were about to attack.
The leader sighed and turned away.
The Karma Rider followed and ran away in a puff of smoke.
******
The establishment of the capturing army is not large, and it is currently only seven or eight hundred horsemen.
Since the tire-sun attack, its own casualties have indeed been not small, but it has also caused great damage to the Huns.
They rarely make sorties during the day, and mainly after dark.
With dozens of people, up to a hundred, raid the target that has long been chosen.
Half a month later, there were almost no more grazing Huns on the north bank of the Yellow River.
They dismantled their tents, drove cattle and sheep, drove wagons, and retreated all the way north, to the north of Hanoi, away from the front line, which was vulnerable to surprise attacks.
As a result, the Hun cavalry, which had been entangled with the righteous army for a long time, also retreated dozens of miles. Because it was difficult for them to find a fixed supply point, especially after a Jin Renwu fort marshal suddenly turned his face, killed dozens of Hun cavalry, and refused to provide food and grass, it was particularly difficult to supply and had to retreat north.
Outside the northern city of Heyang, it was much cleaner all of a sudden.
In Yewang City, Han Anxi's general Liu Ya's face was not very good-looking.
He stared at the map on the desk, his fingers gesturing to and fro.
After a while, he let go of his frowning brow.
The situation is actually clearer.
The Jin people came with a large number of reinforcements, and the tactical style of play also changed.
Originally, there were only about 1,000 cavalry, which could only cover the northern city, but later two or three thousand cavalry came, so they began to organize a large group of men and horses to fight with the Han Dynasty.
This was actually what he expected, after all, they had all increased their troops in a big way, how could they not fight a few battles?
But there were also things he didn't expect, that is, the enemy was reduced to zero, and small groups of cavalry attacked late at night, harassing the grazing lands of various clans and tribes, and they really succeeded several times.
Most of the Ding Zhuang of various departments were requisitioned to the front line, and the strength left behind in the camp was seriously insufficient, and it was difficult to react under the raid in the middle of the night, so many people were taken captive, even cattle and sheep.
Liu Ya had just looked at the map, and the farthest surprise attack of the Jin people was about fifty or sixty miles, which was very far.
At this distance, if you want to keep the horsepower full, you need to bring at least two horses, and if the equipment is heavy, it is better to have three.
He calculated that if they attacked at night, counting the time spent resting and feeding the horses, they would be able to go a hundred miles under the guidance of a guide who was familiar with geography.
This realization made him very irritated.
The topography of Hanoi is special, as a whole it is long and narrow from east to west and short from north to south.
If you are a hundred miles, you are almost close to the southern foot of Taihang.
Attack quickly, run after fighting, and never fall in love with war......
If it is this kind of attack and harassment warfare method, it is indeed very disgusting, and the grazing cannot be put properly.
Liu Ya looked at it, and finally her eyes converged on the north city of Heyang.
The city is really getting more and more eyesore.
Its existence allowed the Jin people to have a forward base, and brought the power of their attack and harassment tactics to the extreme - in fact, the Huns used to attack and harass the Jin people like this, but they have always been the ones who attacked and harassed others, and now they are caught by the opposite side, which is really unaccustomed.
Can you destroy the northern city of Heyang?
I didn't think it before, but now I find that the threat of the three cities of Heyang is really big.
Their presence first deprived the army heading south from Hanoi of the most convenient ferry crossing - even if they crossed the river from other ports, it was not impossible for the defenders to go out of the city and cut off the attacker's logistical supply lines if they were brave enough.
Secondly, as long as there are enough knights who are skilled in the bow horse. After recuperating in the northern city of Heyang, you can attack everywhere and wreak havoc.
This city really has to be defeated, otherwise Hanoi will not be at peace.
The rear of the river, which was originally well crossed, became the front line of the tug-of-war between the two sides, and could not become a stable supply base for grain, hay, cattle and sheep, making it almost impossible to cross the river south and besiege Luoyang.
In a flash of light, he thought a lot, and then began to write letters to the Son of Heaven.
He didn't have enough infantry at hand, and it was almost impossible to storm the city.
After a closer look, it seemed that only the foot soldiers under the account of Shile, the governor of Jizhou, were the most numerous and the most capable of fighting......
