Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 308 Change of Situation 1
For the time being, the Xiongnu army and the Northern Xinjiang army faced off in this way. Gao Shun did not continue the night attack as the Huns imagined. Because King Zuoguli adopted a strategy of holding back the army at Nabin, Zhao Yun and the others could not find him. There was no chance of an attack, so the white-robed army had to continue to rest.

As for Gongsun Xu, in order to test the reaction of the Huns, he fought against Tie Kun four times. Tie Kun is a good man now, he only fights against Gongsun Xu in a regular manner, and does not give Gongsun Xu any chance of surprise attack .

The soldiers on both sides didn't lose much, but they were constantly anxious. Tie Kun didn't have a rest at all. Many times, he was almost found by Gongsun Xu to sneak attack. Life has never been so good.

However, in this way, it will not be so easy for Shanyu's personal guards. In the original plan, they were used to press the formation and keep an eye on the front line. However, since the battle has progressed, they have to be ready to join the battle at any time lock up.

The Northern Border Army's offensive was not swift and violent, but the victory never stopped. Tie Kun's side was full of 4 horses, and Gongsun Xu's side couldn't afford it.He didn't know that the infantry that Gongsun Xu sent to fight him could take turns to rest.

Tie Kun thought that Gongsun Xu was also trying to hold on, and it depended on who could last to the end.

The Xiongnu Shanyu now only wants to fight steadily, not seeking meritorious deeds, but seeking no faults. I am afraid this is his current mentality. The Northern Army did not continue to coerce his side, which is the best news for him.

All he can do now is to wait until King Youguli led his army to successfully rescue the Hetao camp, and wait for the place to settle down.

What he couldn't imagine is that the current Hetao camp is actually in chaos. In order to effectively exert the destructive power of the servant army, Wen Chou ordered the soldiers of the servant army to burn, kill and loot at will, as long as they can hand in the seized materials The seven layers are enough.

In this way, these Qiang soldiers really wanted to go crazy, and they would kill all the ordinary herdsmen, let alone the regular troops of the Huns cavalry. The advance troops fought hard with the tens of thousands of troops left behind by the Huns.

Both sides lost tens of thousands of soldiers, but neither side was willing to retreat. The Xiongnu's remaining army suffered from no retreat. Once they retreated, the remaining tribes in Hetao, which were generally not harmed, would basically disappear.

On Wen Chou's side, the servant army has long been murderous, especially Wen Chou's 1 subordinates, who are purely red-eyed. The remaining troops of the Huns stopped them here. The opponent continues to fight.

Although Wen Chou allowed the servant army to plunder at will, there was a time limit for this.If Xu Shu led the follow-up troops to arrive, they wouldn't be able to act like this. That is to say, there was not much time left for them to make a fortune.

For this reason, many servant soldiers asked for surprise attacks or night battles. As long as they could defeat the Xiongnu troops left behind, they would be able to make a fortune. However, Wen Chou did not agree. Without absolute certainty, Wen Chou did not dare adventure.

Furthermore, after successive battles, the number of wounded servants gradually increased. Although many lightly wounded soldiers gritted their teeth and refused to rest, if they did not rest, the combat effectiveness of this servant army would soon be dragged down. For this reason, Wen Chou also had to slow down his pace.

King Youguli of the Xiongnu is eager to rush back day and night. After a day of hasty marching, fifty thousand Hun soldiers are exhausted. Such a high-intensity hastily marching is not only unbearable for the soldiers, but even the horses will foam at the mouth. landed.

The hoofs of many war horses are broken, and they can't run at all. Some war horses are exhausted to the end. Without enough salt and fodder, the physical strength of these war horses can't keep up at all, and they can't get rest. It's no wonder that the war horse is not exhausted.

It was getting dark, and King Youguli had to order to set up camp to rest. The Xiongnu warriors who had worked hard all day could finally rest.

At this moment, dozens of miles away, teams of scattered cavalry teams are approaching the camp of the Huns, and they are lurking from the opposite direction of the Huns cavalry.

The 1 draft troops have been waiting here for a long time. In order to avoid being discovered, they have been hiding these days. The [-] horses are commanded by six school lieutenants, each looking for a place to hide. It was just one of the captains leading the team.

Many days of patient waiting finally paid off. At noon, a scout team brought back news. The farthest scout team found the shadow of the Huns cavalry. At that time, the scout team was using Haidongqing to inquire about news. When they found the Huns cavalry, they were still more than ten miles away from the Huns.

In order to send back the news as quickly as possible, everyone in the scout team hid in place, but Ying Nu let Hai Dongqing out, and the scouts behind received the news and immediately used similar methods to return the news. Teleportation, in this way, the six lieutenants of the forward selection army were all connected to the intelligence.

Although the Huns were very tired, they still supported themselves and built a crude camp. King Youguli felt that this was not safe enough. 3000 people were selected for vigil.

Although the 3000 people were reluctant, King Youguli's orders had been issued, so what else could they do.

Sometimes, many things are not useless. If King Youguli was not so careful, I am afraid they will suffer even greater losses.,,,,,

The Xiongnu Shanyu has been waiting in the camp for more than three days. According to the itinerary, King Youguli and the others should be on the way now. He is also very worried about Hetao. The intelligence has repeatedly stated that the Qiang people invaded, but He knew very well in his heart that this matter had nothing to do with the Northern Xinjiang Army.

The key is how the Northern Xinjiang Army contacted the Qiang people, whether there were really only so few people in the sneak attack on Hetao, and whether any soldiers and horses of the Northern Border Army participated in the sneak attack. These questions have always troubled the Xiongnu Shanyu.

After finally going through another day, there was still no movement in the northern Xinjiang military camp, and Tie Kun was also in a stalemate with Gongsun Xu, but according to the information Tie Kun sent every day, he seemed to be unable to bear it.

Shan Yu was very angry, Gongsun Xu hadn't mobilized the forward selection army, Tie Kun's side couldn't hold it, what's the matter, could it be that he had to take all his personal guards in?
At this moment, he thought more of Tie Kun's incompetence, but he didn't guess Gongsun Xu's treachery. No wonder, Gongsun Xu had already tricked him, so how could he think of it for a while?

Not long after dark, the Xiongnu Shanyu called his subordinates to discuss the military situation in the tent as usual. Just after the meeting, someone shouted outside: "Report, Shanyu, it's not good..."

This voice directly raised everyone's nerves, and Xiongnu Shanyu didn't care about his face, he immediately called people from outside, and as a result, the captain of the personal army brought in two disgraced and extremely exhausted soldiers.

Shan Yu stared at the two men and asked, "Which army do you belong to, what happened?"

"Report to Shan Yu, we were originally soldiers staying in the camp, and we returned to Hetao with King Youguli two days ago." One of the soldiers replied.

When they heard that it was the subordinates led by King Youguli, everyone was dumbfounded. Could it be that something happened to King Youguli?
"Go on, what happened?" Shan Yu continued to ask.

"I was camping on the road and encountered an attack. King Youguli hurriedly sent 100 of us back to report." The soldier continued: "The enemy came suddenly, and our army was not prepared. The soldiers fought desperately to defeat the enemy. They were expelled from the camp, but our army also lost thousands of people, and more importantly, our army lost more than 2 horses in the chaos of the war.”

"What? Why are you so careless? What does King Youguli eat?" Shan Yu roared angrily, "Who is the opponent, and how many soldiers and horses does he have?"

"Looking at the attire, it should be the northern frontier army." Another soldier replied: "The enemy attacked at night, and we couldn't figure out their strength. Fortunately, King Youguli has a good command, and brothers They discovered it early, so the soldiers did not suffer much loss, but the horses lost a lot, and now there are more than 2 brothers without mounts, and the army is temporarily dragged down."

"Selecting the Frontier Army? This is impossible. The Selecting Frontier Army is surrounded by our army on the other side of the mountain. How could they attack you?" Shan Yu continued angrily, "Don't just make up things just to get rid of the blame. Am I a fool?"

Everyone didn't dare to answer, Shan Yu was so angry that no one would dare to provoke him now.

After a while, Shan Yu who had calmed down suddenly stood up and exclaimed: "No, I was fooled. Damn Gongsun Xu, he lied to me."

Everyone didn't understand what Shan Yu was talking about. They all looked at Shan Yu suspiciously, hoping that he could speak clearly, but Shan Yu asked: "I ask you, are there any enemy troops chasing you on the way back?" ?”

"Yes, there are 100 enemy soldiers chasing us." The soldier who just replied replied: "They are difficult to deal with and have strong fighting power. When we first set out, there were a hundred brothers, but when we were on the way, we were killed." There were more than 60 people left, but they did not lose a single person.

They were too terrifying. If it wasn't for the 100 brothers who stayed behind to delay them, we might not be able to escape back. However, when they were more than [-] miles away from our camp, they gave up their pursuit, as if they were afraid. Our army is nearby. "

"Sure enough, it's the front-running army. Apart from them, how many troops in the northern Xinjiang army can have such combat effectiveness." Shan Yu muttered to himself: "It's a bit unreasonable to give up the pursuit if we are more than 100 miles away from our army camp. Ah. According to their speed, they have been chasing for so long, why not continue chasing desperately?

Strange, we you, how many people are there when we finally throw off the pursuers, and how far are they from you? "

The two soldiers looked at each other and replied: "At that time, they were only a dozen miles away from us. Their speed was very fast. Even if they were blocked, they could follow us very quickly. No matter how we circled around, we couldn't escape them. As for how many of them are left, we don't know."

Shan Yu nodded, then narrowed his eyes and thought about it, not long after, he suddenly jumped up and exclaimed: "Not good,,,,,,"
