Chapter 54: Night Raid (for Book Friends HZWF86060671 Monthly Pass Update)
ps: Sorry for the late, there is another update today.
Three days later, Gongshi Leopard came to the north bank of the Yellow River to confront Chu Yun's cavalry across the river, although Gongshi Leopard has a violent temperament, but he has commanded troops for many years and is very experienced, so he will not rush over stupidly, after all, he doesn't know Chu Yun's origin, he doesn't know if there is an ambush, Liu Cong trusts him very much, and he will not live up to Liu Cong's trust. Although Liu Cong is much more mediocre now, he still has a lot of supporters in his early days, who are both civil and military, wise and martial, otherwise he would not have become that ghost in the later period, and his country has not perished, and even Shi Le, an ambitious guy, did not dare to show clear opposition before Liu Cong died.
Chu Yun heard the scout coming, he rode on a red horse and came to the south bank of the Yellow River, although the Yellow River was dozens of meters wide, but Chu Yun's eyesight could see the opposite side clearly.
Gongshi Leopard happened to be observing Chu Yun's camp on the other side, he was tall, he should be about one meter eighty-five, in this era, this is considered a strong man, his hair was cut in the center, leaving only four sides, and a few small braids, which is a typical Hun head shape. He was wearing a suit of chain mail, a full beard, and his eyes were attentive, and he looked like a fierce warrior on the battlefield. He sat down on a fine black horse, with two white stripes like lightning, and he was very handsome.
In fact, not only Chu Yun saw the Gongshi Leopard clearly, but the Gongshi Leopard also clearly saw Chu Yun clearly, Chu Yun's appearance was too young, the Gongshi Leopard pursed his lips disdainfully, and then spat heavily at Chu Yun, and mocked in the direction of this Chu Yun, and then turned around and left. Although Chu Yun couldn't hear what he said, he was proficient in lip language, and it was also given to him by Chu Yun's confidante Lin Xiaoshen.
"Tomorrow morning, I want my little white-faced head? Hehe, it looks like that guy wants to cross the river in the middle of the night, but he doesn't know where, and I'll entertain you with a bow and arrow." Chu Yun said to himself, since he knew the other party's plan, how could Chu Yun not take advantage of it, he immediately arranged for people to arrange scouts within dozens of miles along the river, once they crossed the river in the middle of the night, then Chu Yun would make them look good.
Chu Yun arranged for everyone to rest in advance, and in the middle of the night, sure enough, a scout came to report that the Huns had been discovered. They were crossing the river more than ten miles upstream, Chu Yun immediately gathered more than 1,500 people who did not have night blindness, each carrying a large number of arrows, and then wrapped all the horse's feet in cloth, and the horse's mouth was also covered with a cover to prevent the horse's ass from barking, and more than 1,000 people quietly rushed upstream. Even if there is no night blindness, riding a horse at high speed at night is an act of seeking death, so the speed of the group is very slow.
At four or five o'clock in the morning, when it was darkest, Chu Yun's people finally arrived, Chu Yun asked everyone to tie up all the horses, and then more than a thousand people cautiously lurked over.
"There will be a wave of rockets first, and then free shooting, one person and one pot of arrows, if the shot is empty, we will withdraw, if it is daytime, we can attack halfway, but now we don't need to fight with them. Chu Yun gave the order, and everyone received the order.
Gongshi Leopard looked at more than half of his people, and the horse supplies were slowly sent over, he was very proud, the Huns mainly ate meat and dairy products, plus they occupied Guanzhong, and the food was getting better and better, so few Huns had night blindness, which was also the basis for daring to do so. In his opinion, as long as he crossed the river and launched a surprise attack the next morning, the other party would definitely not be able to react at that time, and the hateful little white-faced head would definitely not see the sun the next day.
Suddenly, a long red belt appeared on the dim riverside, and all the Huns were taken aback, because someone had already seen them, these were torches, and the male leopard was also startled, and he immediately shouted, telling his subordinates to pay attention to their guard, and all the Huns were anxious to find their armor and weapons, but it was too late.
The sky suddenly brightened up with flames, and the male leopard immediately knew that it was a rocket: "Find a place to hide." Before shouting the rocket, they came to the Huns, and suddenly the screams rang out, and many people were ignited by the rockets poured with fire oil, and what was even more terrible was that their horses were frightened, and many of them broke free from the ropes and fled, I don't know how many people they hit.
But Chu Yun's subordinates will not stop because of the chaos of the Huns, they take advantage of the light of the first wave of rockets to shoot out the bows and arrows in the quiver, a quiver can hold more than a dozen arrows, and all of them are shot out in just a quarter of an hour, but this is already the limit of a cavalry, they are all carefully selected, but they can only use a strong bow with one stone, a dozen arrows are shot, and everyone's shoulders hurt.
Chu Yun knew the situation of his subordinates very well, he didn't look at the results of the battle, he immediately ordered people to retreat, the sky began to white, if the Huns caught up, then his guards cavalry would not be pleased.
When the sky lit up, the male master leopard counted some damage, and jumped angrily, if it weren't for a few of his subordinates pulling, he would definitely lead someone to kill him immediately. Last night's tens of thousands of arrows killed more than 500 people and scared away more than 1,300 horses, but many were injured, more than 200 were seriously injured, and more than 800 were lightly injured. The results were huge, but most of the dead were caused by the stampede of frightened horses, which also dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the Huns. Moreover, the Huns attrition reached one-tenth, and this was done without Chu Yun's men being unscathed.
It took the whole morning to settle the wounded, and although they ran more than a thousand horses, they were all one man and two horses, and there were spare horses. In the morning, the patience of the Gongshi Leopard was completely exhausted, and at noon, when they finished eating, the Gongshi Leopard led more than 4,000 of his subordinates to kill Chu Yun. In his opinion, the Hun cavalry was invincible, and although he didn't know that Chu Yun had the ability to look at the shape of his lips last night, he was still full of confidence.
Chu Yun was very comfortable, they slept beautifully in the morning, and were eating at noon, when they heard the scout coming to report, he finished eating unhurriedly, and then put on the chain mail with the help of the personal guards, this chain mail weighed more than thirty pounds, you must know that Chu Yun was also wearing a set of soft armor of more than ten pounds, which weighed fifty pounds, plus his lance also had dozens of pounds, that is, Chu Yun, ordinary people wearing this body estimated that the weapon could not dance. He didn't look like a heavy cavalryman, he was dressed in armor and only knew how to charge with a spear.
Now that Chu Yun's strength has reached the stage of turning into strength, his physical fitness has been greatly enhanced, otherwise he would not dare to wear a dress on the battlefield. The martial artists in the stage of transformation are superb, not only can they rely on their strength to fight the enemy, but also can use their strength to enhance their own qualities. Moreover, coupled with Chu Yun's martial arts, he can make his strength circulate, so theoretically, Chu Yun's lethality can be endless. But this is also theoretical, if Chu Yun encounters a force that can break the operation of his strength or is attacked accidentally, his strength cycle will collapse, and his strength will be greatly reduced. This is also the reason why Chu Yun feels that the strength is not comparable to the internal force, and Chu Yun will not have this situation when he uses the inside. Moreover, his strength met the internal force warrior, and it was difficult to break the defense of the internal force head-on. However, with Chu Yun's years of experience in immersing himself in his inner strength and strength, Chu Yun felt that as long as he didn't encounter a martial artist above the seventh layer of the human realm now, he felt that he had the strength to fight, so that he would not be afraid of Liu Kun's threat of force. Above the seventh layer of the human realm, you can attach the internal force to the weapon, although the strength can also be attached to the weapon, but the strength is obviously different from the internal force.
Chu Yun closed his eyes and listened to the scout's return, and when the Gongshi Leopard was only three miles away from him, Chu Yun stood up, he swept around the crowd, and everyone stared at him.
As soon as Chu Yun jumped, he wore dozens of catties of armor on his jujube red horse, he raised his lance and said loudly: "Brothers, Lao Tzu feels that the reputation of the Huns is blown by themselves, we are all men with eggs, today Lao Tzu will take you to break the myth of the Huns, our iron-blooded army is the strongest." The crowd echoed loudly.
Chu Yun looked at everyone's mood and relaxed, he nodded, now the Iron Blood Army has become a real elite, but what they lack is an iron and blood battle, after the most brutal tempering, they can truly become the elite of the elite. The soldiers of the Iron Blood Army all got on their horses one after another, everyone held the weapons in their hands tightly, and their eyes were full of desire to fight, this was the first battle in which Chu Yun became famous, and it was also the first battle in which they became famous.
