"The Art of War: Fiction is real, but reality is virtual, what if Shatuo Khan does the opposite, it seems that he is going to attack Youzhou, but he changes his route halfway and goes to attack Mingsha City?"

The second cousin, Ning Tianci, reminded Wu Zheng in a word, and when he was hesitating whether to withdraw his troops and go back, the scouts sent came back one after another. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Report! King Xiaoyao, General Ning, the Hun cavalry was found ten miles away in front of the left. ”

"How many centaurs?"

"About 3,000 people. ”

A Hun cavalry of about 1,000 men appeared in the right rear, approaching rapidly. ”

"Probe, report!"

"Yes!"

Soon, two more groups of scouts reported that Hun cavalry had appeared in the front right and rear left. Most of the numbers are around one or two thousand. The total number of Hun cavalry gradually surrounded by the four roads was close to 8,000 people.

Eight thousand against five thousand, and they were surrounded from four directions, it seems that Shatuo Khan did not plan to let this lone army of Bingzhou cavalry go out of the desert again.

Wu Zheng and Ning Tianci had an idea after a little discussion.

Of the 50,000 horses, only about 8,000 appeared here, and the remaining 40,000 or so? Wu Zheng did not change his original intention, but only inquired about the situation of the Shatuo Khan, and did not want to fight a decisive battle with him in the great desert. Therefore, the two led 5,000 cavalry to chase down the obvious horse's hoof marks in the desert before being surrounded by the Huns' four-way cavalry.

The 5,000 cavalry of Bingzhou was in front, and the 8,000 cavalry of the Xiongnu were behind, and a chase battle was staged in the desert.

From the initial northwest direction, it turned westward, and then southward, and after two hours, it did come to the border of Youzhou along the traces on the ground. It's just that the traces did not enter the territory of Youzhou, let alone go back to Mingsha City, but changed direction again and went straight to the west along the border of Youzhou.

If you go all the way in this direction, it will be the territory of the Black Liao Kingdom Beep King. From the border of Heiliao to the south, it does not take half a day to reach the border of Bingzhou.

"Such a cunning Shatuo Khan, there must be capable people under his account to help. Or simply an official from the puppet court of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Central Plains. Otherwise, we had just transferred troops from the state, and they would not have gotten the news so quickly. ”

"King Xiaoyao, now there are less than 20,000 defenders in Bingzhou, and the elites have been transferred to Youzhou, so they are not able to resist the more than 40,000 cavalry of Shatuo Khan, not to mention a sudden attack. ”

"Second cousin, you are now leading 3,000 men and horses to rush back to Mingsha City, leaving the men and horses of Bingzhou to garrison Mingsha City to replace Guan Xiangying. He also ordered Guan Xiangying to consolidate the passage fortress between Mingsha City and Youzhou along the way, and ensure that the passage between Youzhou and Mingsha City was unimpeded. As for what he should do after returning to Youzhou, he has his own Yum will be arranged by his predecessors. ”

"Yes. ”

For Wu Zheng's order, Ning Tianci has never discounted it. It is not only the result of his father Ning Yunchong's repeated advice, but also Wu Zheng's performance that has conquered Ning Tianci. Whether it is martial arts cultivation or personality charm, Ning Tianci is happy and convinced.

Seeing Ning Tianci divide his troops into 3,000 and turn around and rush back to Mingsha City, Wu Zheng waved his horsewhip and led the remaining 2,000 Bingzhou cavalry, and went straight to the 8,000 Hun cavalry that followed behind. Without waiting for the two armies to meet, and there was still about half a mile in between, Wu Zheng suddenly reined in his mount, took off the longbow from his shoulder, bent the bow and set up the arrows, and the arrows shot continuously were like a straight line, shooting towards the Hun cavalry galloping on the opposite side.

It can really be said that the strings sound and the arrows fall.

Wu Zheng stood on the spot and shot out all the hundred wolf tooth arrows in the quiver in one breath, and a hundred Hun cavalry fell to the ground. Because the speed of the Hun cavalry was too fast, it was too late to dodge after catching up, and there were hundreds of Hun cavalry who were tripped by the fallen cavalry and horses.

The series of arrows shot by Wu Zheng were like a sharp blade passing through the middle of the galloping cavalry of the Huns, and a hole was torn open.

The 2,000 Bingzhou cavalry behind him did the same, although they did not have the amazing strength and accuracy of Wu Zheng, they still killed and injured many Hun cavalry. Of course, when the Bingzhou cavalry was able to shoot the Hun cavalry, they naturally entered the range of the Hun cavalry's bow and arrow, and both sides suffered casualties.

"Five hundred people on the left, five hundred people on the right, one thousand people after the break, rush!"

Wu Zheng didn't want to shoot at the Hun cavalry, because the Bingzhou cavalry was not an opponent at all. So he put away his longbow and ordered the team to form an arrow-shaped attack formation, and he personally acted as the tip of the arrow in front, and rushed forward with a wave of the Lingyun Sword to urge the horse.

Don't look at the large number of Hun cavalry, which is four times that of Wu Zheng's 2,000 men and horses, but after being torn open by Wu Zheng for a while, he suddenly rushed up, and the Lingyun Sword in his hand was full of sword energy, and immediately messed up their formation. In this way, the Bingzhou cavalry behind him will naturally have a chance. With Wu Zheng as the arrow, the five hundred cavalry on the left and the other on the right were like sharp blades at both ends of a wedge-shaped dagger, tearing the original narrow opening of only three or five horsemen into a width of several zhang.

Immediately, the 1,000 cavalry behind swept over and quickly entered the center of the Hun cavalry ranks.

It seems that the Bingzhou cavalry is surrounded by the Hun cavalry in the middle, but the gap in the middle is getting bigger and bigger. Finally, the Hun cavalry could no longer bear the panic in their hearts, so they took the lead in fleeing on horseback, and the 8,000-strong Hun cavalry left more than 1,500 corpses and fled.

After the war, although the Bingzhou cavalry also suffered more than 500 casualties, compared to the Hun cavalry, the price was still worth it.

In particular, the Hun cavalry, which had always been difficult to defeat in the minds of the Bingzhou cavalry, was defeated by themselves, and it was 2,000 people who defeated 8,000 people, which was an unprecedented victory. Involuntarily, the remaining more than 1,400 cavalry and horses surrounded Wu Zheng, the king of leisure, and began to cheer.

Wu Zheng knew that the key to defeating the 8,000 Hun cavalry this time was his own courage. The Art of War: The brave wins when they meet on a narrow road. At the same time, his own role as a soldier also played a certain role.

"Who else thinks that the Hun cavalry is invincible?"

"No! No!"

"Our Bingzhou cavalry is invincible in the world!"

"Invincible in the world!"

How could Wu Zheng not understand the long-standing fear of the Hun cavalry in the hearts of the Central Plains soldiers, so he took advantage of the situation to agitate a few words, and the atmosphere at the scene became even more high.

"Shatuo Khan is planning to go to attack and merge with the state, do you dare to fight to the death!"

"Fight to the death, fight to the death!"

Eliminated the fear of the Hun cavalry in his heart, he was already a young man with strong blood, and under the bloody stimulation of the battle just now, his morale had reached the highest peak.

"Clean up the battlefield, bury the pot and cook, and set off in an hour!" (To be continued.) )
