Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 694 Perfect Retreat 2
"The enemy army is good at sneak attacks and night battles." Xiongnu Shanyu ordered: "So we must pay attention to defense. The enemy camp is only five miles away from our army. We can hear them talking loudly.

We don't have to fight the enemy after dawn tomorrow. It won't be too late for our army to fight after Xianbei sends reinforcements. "

The Xiongnu Shanyu's order was quickly carried out, and the number of patrolling Xiongnu troops really increased a lot. If they were still attacked under such circumstances, it could only show that the Xiongnu army was out of luck.

When the sky was about to dawn, Zhao Yun's side had already finished preparations. All the soldiers in the army had had breakfast, and everyone was ready to go. The wounded and the dead were placed in the middle of the team. The Northern Xinjiang Army will never give up on its brothers. .

"Are you ready?" Zhao Yun looked at the rising sun and said, "Even if we want to leave, we still have to scare the Huns."

"It's ready." The deputy general replied: "Just wait for the general's order."

"Okay, you lead the troops first." Zhao Yun nodded and said: "I will lead the army to the rear, and pass the order to beat the drum."

Suddenly, there was a burst of battle drums, and there was a lot of commotion in the camp of the white robe army. The Xiongnu army soon got the news that the Xiongnu Shanyu had just fallen asleep, and now he had to get up again to prepare for the battle.

"The enemy is coming." The Xiongnu Shanyu said: "Persist until dawn, do not go out to fight, but occupy the camp for defense..."

Zhao Yun led a thousand cavalry and charged over from a distance. When they got close to the Huns' camp, Zhao Yun shot a burst of fire, and the arrows flew into the Huns' camp, causing screams.

However, the Xiongnu army was tightly defended, and Zhao Yun didn't find any opportunities, so he led his troops away not long after.However, the Xiongnu Shanyu did not believe that Zhao Yun would leave. The cunning of the Northern Frontier Army had been deeply imprinted in his heart. He believed that Zhao Yun would make another move in the future.

The soldiers of the Xiongnu army were busy defending in the camp. Although Zhao Yun led hundreds of cavalry and showed up for a while, there was no other action. However, many people on the side of the Huns believed that the enemy was hiding and looking for an opportunity to make a move. All they can do now is hold on Camp, don't give the opponent the slightest chance.

"Zhao Yun really lives up to his reputation." In the camp, the Xiongnu Shanyu looked at the distance on his horse and sighed: "There are not as many soldiers and horses as I do, and the rest time is about the same as mine. Now that the lord dares to lead troops to attack me, the North Frontier army, powerful."

More than a dozen miles away, Zhao Yun led eight hundred elite horses and galloped wildly. Looking at the rising sun, Zhao Yun pointed to the front and said: "Soldiers, come with me to meet Lu Bu, and see how much of the Bingzhou Wolf Riders are back then." prestige."

Eight hundred elite cavalry followed Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun's lieutenant Xia Houlan had already led the main force to retreat first.In order to prevent the enemy from following him, Zhao Yun cut off the rear himself and frightened the Xiongnu army not long ago. Up to now, the Xiongnu Shanyu still firmly believes that Zhao Yun is really going to fight him desperately.

"Blow the horn." Seeing tents appearing in front of him, Zhao Yun immediately ordered his subordinates to blow the horn.It was already dawn, Zhao Yun had [-] elite soldiers and [-] to [-] war horses, and there was a lot of commotion.

"There is an enemy sneak attack, defending the camp gate." In the Xianbei army camp, the generals are directing their subordinates to defend. Although they don't know where the enemy came from, all the Xianbei army knows that as long as they can keep the camp, the enemy will also attack. You can't do anything with yourself.

"Where is the sound of the horn?" Lu Bu had already got on his horse and commanded his subordinates to prepare for the battle. He thought it was the Xianbei army who suddenly wanted to kill him, and blocked him for a day. He did this move at dawn today, and Lu Bu admired his opponent a little bit. mean.

"It doesn't seem to be coming from the enemy's camp." Zhang Liao said after checking, "The Xianbei army did not send troops to attack, and our camp is safe and sound."

"Huh?" Lu Bu questioned: "Is the old cloth suspicious of soldiers? Heh heh, the Xianbei army will also use this trick?"

Outside the Xianbei army camp, Zhao Yun led his subordinates to gallop past. Some elite cavalry were still riding and shooting on the galloping horses. Since most of the Xianbei army concentrated on the side of the camp for defense, many unlucky ghosts fell to the ground with arrows.

"Light them a torch." Zhao Yun roared, "Let's see if they dare to attack.

The [-] elite division of labor and cooperation, some are responsible for riding and shooting to cover their comrades in arms, while others find opportunities to throw torches at the opponent's camp or tent. Since the white-robed army is on the move, the enemy has no choice but to do it for a while. To make matters worse, the Xianbei army had no idea what this sudden cavalry wanted to do.

"Let's go to Lu Bu's camp." Under the leadership of Zhao Yun, the [-] white-robed troops rushed towards Lu Bu again.Regarding the sudden appearance of the enemy army, the Xianbei army hadn't figured out what was going on, and now they ran away immediately, which really confused the Xianbei army.

"Don't act rashly." The commander of the Xianbei army ordered: "The enemy is cunning. This is most likely a conspiracy by Lu Bu. Pass on the order and the whole army sticks to the camp. Don't give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it."

"Where is Lu Bu?" Zhao Yun came to the position fifty steps outside Lu Bu's army camp alone. There were already hundreds of archers holding bows and arrows at Zhao Yun at the gate of the camp. However, Zhao Yun completely ignored these soldiers.

"Bold thief, dare to call my general by name, believe it or not..." The captain at the gate of the camp saw Zhao Yun being so rampant, and thought he was sent by the Xianbei army to fight, so he couldn't help being angry After cursing a few words, he found that the feathers on his helmet flew off before he could finish his sentence.

"What a pair of dog eyes, they don't even recognize me, hmph,,,,,,"

Zhao Yun put away his bow and arrow. He just wanted to scare the captain. If he wanted to kill someone, the soldiers at the gate of the camp would have already suffered.

"Hahaha,,,,,," a wild laugh came: "Zilong, why bother to be angry with my sergeant, I didn't expect you to come to me early in the morning, could it be that you have something to ask me for?"

"Fengxian, you think highly of yourself." Zhao Yun said with a smile: "I saw that it would be dangerous for you to be stationed here, so I made a special trip to take a look and tell you by the way, I'm leaving, do you want to leave?" Come with me."

"Oh? Are you going to leave so soon?" Lu Bu rode his horse out of the camp, stopped twenty paces in front of Zhao Yun, and said, "Why, the mere Huns scared you?"

"Hahaha,,,,,," Zhao Yun looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "Feng Xian, I haven't seen you for a long time, I can't believe that your ability to tell jokes has improved a lot. You also said that you are just a mere Hun. How can you stand against me?" ?My elite white robes are enough to kill the Huns.

I won't talk nonsense with you, the Xiongnu army still has more than 2 soldiers, and the Xianbei army also has more than [-] soldiers and horses. Moreover, my subordinates also inquired that there seems to be another route of soldiers and horses nearby. I didn't expect such a small place to be so lively .

It's a pity, I'm not in the mood to play with them here. I saw that you were trapped here and seemed helpless, so I stopped by to take a look. It seems that you haven't figured out your situation yet.

Forget it, it's up to you if you want to stay, anyway, I'm leaving first.By the way, maybe the Xiongnu will rush over soon. At that time, hey, I am afraid that you will have to face more than 3 grassland cavalry alone. I think the title of God of War in Bingzhou is not boasted. I will wait for the good news that you defeated the enemy. Maybe my lord can give you some rewards at that time, haha,,,,,, "

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Lu Bu's answer, Zhao Yun rode away on his horse, followed by eight hundred elites. After a while, all 800 people on Zhao Yun's side left completely, leaving Lu Bu alone outside the camp to think. curse.

"The whole army is on alert and ready to evacuate." Lu Bu roared after returning to the camp: "Quick, hurry up."

"My lord, what happened, do we need to be in such a hurry?" Zhang Liao ran over and asked, "The Xianbei military camp is not far from us. If there is any action on our side, they will find out soon."

"If we don't leave now, I'm afraid we really have to deal with tens of thousands of grassland cavalry alone." Lu Bu snorted coldly, "The most important thing is that Cao Cao's cavalry is also nearby. If we let them know that Zhao Yun has led his troops to leave, they will definitely join forces. The prairie cavalry stumbling me, our army is too small to fight recklessly, so we have to leave."

Lu Bu is ready to leave, but the Xiongnu army and Xianbei army are still defending in the camp to deal with the enemy troops that may appear at any time.

"Report,,,,,," a scout ran into the camp of the Xiongnu army and roared: "Report to Shanyu, the drums in the camp of the white robe army are constantly beating, and there are often war horses neighing."

"It seems that you really want to risk your life." Xiongnu Shanyu nodded and said: "Hmph, I don't believe that your white-robed army is made of iron. If you want to risk your life, I will not play with you until you lose all your vigor." At that time, I see what you are fighting with me, hahaha,,,,,, "

The Xiongnu Shanyu's move was really good. Now he has finally learned to use his brain to fight. In the past, when he fought against the Northern Xinjiang Army, the Xiongnu Army always attacked first, and the Northern Xinjiang Army always adopted a defensive and counter-offensive strategy.

After many fights, the Xiongnu Shanyu also discovered the trick, especially after suffering a big loss in Hetao last time, the Xiongnu Shanyu finally began to reflect on his own shortcomings.

The ferocity of the prairie cavalry is nothing to say, but why is such a fierce prairie cavalry repeatedly defeated by the northern army, and many times by the infantry of the northern army.

It is said that cavalry is the nemesis of infantry, but when it comes to confronting the northern army, this sentence does not seem to be very effective.Last time in Hetao, the Xiongnu elite were even chased and beaten by Gao Shun's infantry, completely losing the prestige of the grassland cavalry.

After learning from the pain, the Xiongnu Shanyu finally realized that there was a problem with his tactics, or in other words, there was a problem with the offensive methods that the prairie cavalry had been adopting.

Attacking first does not necessarily give you an advantage, and those who defend first can often save enough strength to counterattack.The Xiongnu Shanyu knew this very well, and the defensive counterattacks of the Northern Xinjiang Army always restrained himself, so he decided to study hard.
