Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 317 Rout 2
Originally, Tai Shici was worried that the main force of the Huns would receive news of the attack on King Youguli's camp, but when Wen Chou attacked the camp, the main force of the Huns should have been more than 200 miles away.

Moreover, in order to prevent the Huns soldiers from running south to join the main force of the Huns, the front-runners were desperate to chase and kill them. Wen Chou also sent his subordinates to inspect the situation in the south after dawn. Five thousand servants dressed as Huns It even patrolled fifty miles to the south.

If this still doesn't allow the Huns to fall into the trap, then Wen Chou will have to accept his fate, so what if he is found out, just let him attack if he is found out, anyway, he is now occupying the camp, so why should he be afraid? The Huns failed.

Soon after Wen Chou received the news of the appearance of the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army, the Huns' spies also brought the news to the Xiongnu Shanyu's side. Now, the main force of the Huns had to choose to stop and station.

Gongsun Xu's speed here is not slow. He ran more than 200 miles to avoid the spies of the main force of the Huns, and then rushed to catch up with the main force of the Huns. Now, the straight-line distance between the two sides is only fifty miles away, which is enough The Huns were terrified.

At this time, in the camp of the main force of the Huns, in the big tent of the Huns Shanyu, all the remaining high-ranking officials of the Huns have arrived. Since these days, the main force of the Huns has first been King Zuoguli who did not keep up with the team, and then King Youxian. After staying behind, King Youguli was the first to lead his army back to help, but was blocked on the grassland.

Originally, everyone thought that King Youxian had successfully blocked the main force of the Northern Border Army. Moreover, whether it was the information sent by Youxian King or the news from the spies left behind by Shan Yu, it proved that the Northern Border Army was indeed captured. King Youxian was attracted.

Even, the intelligence said that the Northern Army was increasing its troops every day, and the number of the Northern Army on the opposite side of King Youxian's camp was probably no less than 10,000+. When they got the news, most of the top officials of the Xiongnu were relieved.

Except for the fact that the [-] forward troops gradually followed up two days ago, which made the Huns nervous, there is no bad news for the rest.

The Xiongnu Shanyu looked at the crowd coldly, and finally he broke the silence in the big tent and said: "The spies reported that there were about [-] Northern Xinjiang troops in the east, and the [-] frontier troops in the south were chasing them. There are tens of miles away from King Youguli's camp, and it will take at least a day to get there.

The northern border army is chasing up now, obviously they don't want our army to join forces with King Youguli. If our army continues on its way tomorrow, there is no guarantee that it will not be attacked by the northern border army. You say, in this situation, we should How to cope? "

After hearing this, everyone discussed in whispers, the northern border army's pursuit troops were only 10, and even with the selection front army, it was less than 5, and the army on their side was more than twice that of the opponent's. For the [-] horses on King Guli's side, this advantage is undeniable.

Furthermore, the northern border army came in pursuit from a long distance, so they must not be able to carry much supplies, and the logistics could not keep up, so it was even more impossible for the infantry to catch up. It is also better than the enemy's pursuit.

Tie Kun couldn't hold back his anger. These days, he had often been looked down upon by others. As Zuo Xianwang, he also wanted to find a chance to save face.

He stood up and said to Shan Yu, "Shan Yu, although the enemy army is coming fiercely, it is actually vulnerable. Now we are all in the depths of the grassland, and the enemy army does not know the terrain but tries to trap our army. It is beyond our control.

How about our army forming a decisive battle with the enemy after dawn tomorrow, and at the same time sending an order to King Youguli to lead the army to come to help. At that time, our army will be several times stronger than the enemy army. Can't we defeat the Northern Xinjiang army? "

Everyone, Tie Kun, is not very popular, but what he said is indeed true. The Northern Xinjiang Army must be exhausted after traveling such a long distance. How much combat power do they have left? If the northern border army's pursuers are dealt with before returning to Hetao, this will eventually become a big trouble.

Seeing that everyone intends to fight, Shan Yu also nodded. In fact, what Tie Kun said was his own meaning. The Northern Border Army has chased them here. The enemy is a joke, and besides, the morale of the Xiongnu warriors is a bit low due to the urgent withdrawal of troops these days, and they just need a victory to cheer them up.

This time was different from before. In the past, the Northern Xinjiang Army had infantry as its backing, whether it was provocation or defense.Most of the cavalry of the Huns were also discouraged by the infantry of the Northern Xinjiang Army. Generally speaking, the cavalry of the Northern Xinjiang Army had not defeated the Huns cavalry on a large scale on the frontal battlefield.

Neither the infantry nor the cavalry of the Northern Xinjiang Army has the strength to compete with the Huns cavalry alone. Many people in the upper echelons of the Huns think so. Just defeat the opponent.

After thinking about it, the Xiongnu Shanyu stood up and replied: "Well, if this is the case, our army will fight the enemy tomorrow. However, if our army sticks to the camp, I am afraid that the Northern Xinjiang army will not be fooled. They may send the main force to attack Youguli King's tribe first.

Therefore, I decided that tomorrow our army will take the initiative to attack and lure the enemy army out. The northern border army will pursue closely, and the food and supplies they carry must not be enough. If they drag on, they will not be able to take advantage of it. Therefore, I think they Also eager to fight.

It's not good for us to delay. Maybe the infantry of the northern border army is already on the way. Tomorrow's battle, our army will definitely defeat the northern border army, so that they don't dare to underestimate our warriors, and let Gongsun know that they are trying to seize me Loop, as long as you pay the price.Everyone, go back to rectify the soldiers and horses now, and join me tomorrow to discuss the northern border army. "

Everyone stood up and took the order with high spirits. In their view, after being aggrieved for so long, tomorrow they finally have a chance to avenge their shame.

At dawn the next day, the Xiongnu Shanyu ordered to cook cattle and slaughter sheep to reward the soldiers. After eating, the Xiongnu Shanyu led 15 men to the main direction of the Northern Xinjiang Army, leaving [-] troops stationed in the camp. Before departure, the Xiongnu Shanyu warned the soldiers in the camp that no one was allowed to come within [-] steps of the camp unless he led the army back.

In order to ensure the safety of the camp, the Xiongnu Shanyu not only asked the soldiers to build fortifications, but also told the remaining [-] cavalry to strengthen their vigilance, and should strictly guard the camp in case of any situation, and must not attack rashly.

There are [-] cavalry guarding the camp, plus the fortifications built overnight, even if the [-] Northern Xinjiang Army chooses a front army, it is impossible to attack without four or five days.

After the safety of the camp was guaranteed, the Xiongnu Shanyu went to find the main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army for a decisive battle.

As expected, the main force of the cavalry of the Northern Xinjiang Army led by Gongsun Xu did not avoid the battle. Tie Kun and his analysis were correct. Gongsun Xu did only carry dry food for a few days, and the pursuit of these days has almost consumed it. , Now, the average dry food left by each cavalry is less than one day. If Gongsun Xu does not fight the Huns decisively, it will be difficult for him to continue chasing them.

Knowing that the main force of the Xiongnu was approaching him again, Gongsun Xu immediately sent messengers to call up the troops that could be summoned nearby. The [-] forward troops were dozens of miles away, and they had received news that they were rushing here.

However, at this moment, the Huns' army was not far from Gongsun Xu's army. After choosing the battlefield, Gongsun Xu took the lead in setting up his position and waiting for the Huns' army to come.

In fact, this time, Gongsun Xu also felt that he was a bit risky. Although the Xiongnu had been retreating, their main force was always there. He wanted to catch the opponent by surprise, but he didn't want the opponent to gradually stabilize during the retreat.

However, this did not prevent Gongsun Xu from making up his mind to start the final decisive battle with the main force of the Huns. Last night there was news from Wen Chou that Hetao had been occupied. Even if the Huns returned to Hetao, it would not help.

According to the itinerary, the heavy armored cavalry led by the Baipao Army and Zhang Fei should be within a hundred miles, but Gongsun Xu has not found out about them yet. In order to send a message to the friendly army, Gongsun Xu not only sent Ying Nu When Hai Dongqing was released, the warning beacon smoke never stopped. As long as the nearby troops saw these signals, they would definitely rush over as quickly as possible.

Soon, the Hun army also rushed to the battlefield, and the 15 Hun main force immediately put down their positions. This was not like the previous battles. This time, the Hun troops were very efficient and their morale was not weak. He was under pressure, but he felt even more excited. As long as this Hun army was defeated, the Hetao Grassland would become his own cyst.

Since the number of people was less than half of the opponent's, Gongsun Xu had to order to focus on defense, and the various departments cooperated with each other, and they should not attack rashly.

Thirty miles away, [-] soldiers were already rushing towards this side, and the Xiongnu Shanyu had also received the news. He immediately dispatched [-] troops to stop the soldiers, hoping to hold them back for a few hours.

Moreover, before departure, the Xiongnu Shanyu also sent three teams of messengers to send troops to King Youguli, and there should be news from there before noon.

In order to consume the strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army, the Xiongnu Shanyu has already ordered an attack. There was no temptation or fear. The Huns directly had 3 cavalry stepping forward to entangle the opponent's former army of [-] people. It is a team of veterans who have fought for many years. They know how to effectively protect themselves in this situation.

As soon as they fought, the [-] Xiongnu cavalry showed strong attack power. However, the [-] Northern Frontier Army did not eat dry food. When the soldiers engaged in short-hand combat, the coordination among the soldiers of the Northern Border Army was revealed. The [-] Northern Border Army fought to a tie with the enemy.

Seeing that the 5 cavalry failed to open up the situation, the Xiongnu Shanyu once again sent [-] troops forward. In desperation, Gongsun Xu also had to send out [-] elite soldiers other than the vanguard. As soon as they fought, the battle between the two sides became fierce stage, the battle immediately became anxious.
