Fu Qin starts with a plan

Chapter 444
Wang Li and others left the Jiuyuan Great Wall, with 2 horses, heading north all the way.

Because the Great Chancellor Yu Modun continued to recruit soldiers from various tribes, the tribes gathered all the young and strong men on the grassland almost like a squeeze.

Today's grassland tribes are all old and weak, women and children, just like the wolf den when the pack of wolves went out to hunt.

Han Xin mopped up Youxian King's court, making Maodun so angry that he sent tens of thousands of wolf riders to chase Han Xin.

Since Han Xin's headquarters had less than five thousand soldiers and horses, and he stayed on the grassland for a long time to sweep up the Xiongnu, it was inevitable that the Qin army would be somewhat dissatisfied.

Therefore, after mopping up the Youxian King's court, Han Xin led his troops and fled with important resources.

Not long after Han Xin left, Wang Li came again.

The so-called stealing a house is fun for a while, and stealing a house is always fun.

Wang Li also wanted to experience Han Xin's happiness, so he received Zhao Kun's order to sweep away all the Huns immediately.

At this time, they had already encountered the first Hun tribe on the grassland.

The old and young women and children in the tribe looked at the billowing smoke and dust rising from the south, their faces full of doubts.

Their husbands, fathers or sons have just left, and it stands to reason that they shouldn't be back so soon.

But now that they came back suddenly, they had to have the idea that the Qin people were vulnerable.

However, just when they were puzzled, Wang Li pulled out his sword suddenly, raised it high and shouted: "Wind!"

"wind!"

"Gale!"

Wang Yan and Wang Yue also drew their swords and shouted, and then the [-] Thunder Riders roared.

"??!!"

When the Huns women and children heard this strange cry, their hearts immediately became cold.

Obviously, this is not Hun language.

Some old Xiongnu recalled these familiar slogans, and couldn't help flashing in their minds the scene when they were driven out of Hetao by the Qin army.

"Not good! It's from Qin! Run!"

The old Xiongnu yelled for the women and children to run quickly, picked up bows and arrows and weapons, turned over and rode on their aging horses.

"Stubbornly resisting, courting death!"

Wang Li looked at the old Xiongnu rushing towards him, smiled coldly, and immediately waved to Wang Yan: "Cousin, you bring an army of troops to encircle and suppress the fleeing women and children, and Wang Yue and I will deal with these old Xiongnu."

"it is good!"

Wang Yan responded, raised his hand and waved, and a group of soldiers and horses immediately left the team and went straight to the Huns women and children.

"Damn! Damn Qin people!"

Seeing this, the old Huns wanted to stop them, but it was too late, they could only roar incompetently.

Wang Li ignored their chattering, and charged directly at them with the five hundred Thunder Riders beside him.

"Fight them!"

The old Xiongnu roared, took out his bow and arrow, and shot wildly at Lei Qi.

However, many arrows were shot in the air.

Because the old Xiongnu was getting older and his blood was declining, the arrows he shot had no power at all.

Moreover.

The armor of Thunder Riders is extremely strong, invulnerable to swords and guns, and their arrows and weapons cannot hurt a single bit.

After a charge, the old Huns were wiped out.

Only the old horse was left to circle around the corpse of the old Hun.

At the same time, Wang Yan successfully blocked the escaped Hun women and children.

Soon, Wang Li and Wang Yue joined Wang Yan.

The three of them looked at the besieged Hun women and children, frowning slightly, thoughtful.

After a while, Wang Yan looked at Wang Li and asked, "Cousin, how do they deal with it?"

Wang Li thought for a while, and immediately turned his heart to the side, and made a beheading gesture.

Seeing this, Wang Yan didn't say much, and nodded to Lei Qi beside him.

All of a sudden, hundreds of Thunder Riders got off their horses, drew their swords from their waists, stepped forward and grabbed the Hun women and children, and wiped their necks with the sword.

Blood spurted from their necks, Wang Li silently turned his head to look at the cattle and sheep in the Xiongnu tribe.

"Brothers, these cattle and sheep will be our food for the next few days, so bring as many as you can!"

After finishing speaking, Wang Li rode to the cattle and sheep on the grassland, picked up a riding crossbow and shot an arrow at one of the white sheep.

The rest of the Thunder Riders were also unceremonious, and started slaughtering cattle and sheep like a hunt.

Immediately afterwards, with the help of various utensils left by the Huns tribe, everyone began to roast cattle and sheep to fill their stomachs.

After eating and drinking, they rested overnight among the Huns.

In the early morning of the next day, just after dawn, Wang Li led his army again, heading towards other tribes.

For a period of time, Wang Li and others encountered five Hun tribes.

Likewise, they did not leave any chance of survival for the women and children of these tribes.

They went deep into the grasslands and raided the various tribes of the Huns, and any survivors might reveal their position.

For the safety of all the soldiers in the army, Wang Li would not care about the blood stained on his hands.

What's more, when the Huns swept the border of the Central Plains, they did more than they did.

The so-called blood for blood, tooth for tooth.

Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

Wang Li has always maintained the quality of a soldier, that is, selflessness on the battlefield.

After traveling on the grassland for more than ten days, there was no sign of Han Xin and others.

Wang Li was worried in his heart, but he didn't mess up his position. He never procrastinated in what should be done according to the plan.

Now, their goal is the royal court of King Youxian of the Huns.

King Youxian failed to sneak attack on Longxi County, so he was defeated and fled to the Western Regions. Wang Li came to the grassland this time, in addition to mopping up the Huns, he also had another purpose to steal King Youxian's family.

Soon, Wang Li learned the approximate location of the royal court from the dying Hun woman.

The [-] Thunder Riders continued on the road.

As they got closer and closer to the royal court of King Youxian, there were more and more Hun tribes around them.

Old Huns herding sheep or horses can be seen almost everywhere.

At this time.

Wang Li changed his tactics. Instead of killing a tribe when he saw it, he lured him with money and asked the old Xiongnu to take him to the royal court.

At the same time, he also distributed the cattle, sheep and horses he had looted to the surrounding Huns tribes.

Not long after, some old Huns scrambled to lead the way for Wang Li and the others.

The old Xiongnu was used to the cruelty of the various tribes of the Huns, and he was also afraid of the thunder of the Qin army. What he thought was, anyway, the Qin people don’t plunder their own tribes, so why bother with other tribes!
There are more than [-] cattle, sheep and horses in the palace of Youxian King, which one is related to him?

Moreover, the people of Qin also benefited themselves. Isn't this a hundred times better than Da Chanyu sending people to squeeze his own tribe at every turn?
Led by nearly a hundred Hun traitors, Wang Li and other [-] thunder riders came to the place less than five miles away from the court of King Youxian.

At this time, the warriors left by King Youxian to guard the royal court discovered the cavalry of the Qin people.

Wang Li looked at the Youxian King's court not far away, turned his head and said to the old Xiongnu who could speak the Central Plains dialect: "Go back and inform your clansmen that we have broken the Youxian King's court;
You will only take away one hundred thousand livestock, relatives and slaves of King Youxian, and the rest will belong to you! "

After Wang Li's words were translated, the Xiongnu traitors who led the way instantly smiled, nodded immediately, and rushed away.

Wang Li watched these Hun traitors leave with a sneer on his face.

These things that the Xiongnu took by treachery were only temporarily stored for the Qin State. When the Xiongnu Da Shanyu, the Left and Right Kings and other tribes were wiped out, they would return them, and there was no need to worry about losses.

At this moment, the warriors staying in the court of King Youxian quickly assembled to resist the attack of the Qin army.

but.

There were no more than seven or eight hundred warriors staying in the royal court, and the rest of the royal court were either relatives or concubines of King Youxian, or family members of elite warriors under King Youxian's account.

And the person with the highest status in the royal court is the uncle of King Youxian, Azanu.

When Azanu learned that the Qin army was attacking, his first reaction was to flee the royal court with his relatives.

Seeing that Azhanu had no intention of fighting and guarding, the Hun warriors who stayed behind changed their thinking instantly, and no longer thought about how to resist the attack of the Qin army.

Just when Azanu was about to escape with his favorite wife in light clothes, Lei Qi, under the command of Wang Li, had already started to charge towards the Youxian King's court.

The blazing sun on the grassland shone on the fine armor of [-] Thunder Riders, emitting a strong light, making it impossible for the Huns to see the situation of the Qin army clearly.

The women and children of King Youxian's royal court had never seen such a situation before. Seeing that the warriors staying behind in the royal court fled without a fight, they suddenly lost their backbone.

In their eyes, holding a group for warmth is far better than staying alone.

Who knows how Qin Jun will treat them.

Lei Qi's horse galloped into the court of Youxian King.

More old and weak women and children came out of the tents, and they were greeted by Thunder Cavalry Blades.

at this time.

Wang Li turned his head to Wang Yan and Wang Yue and said: "It seems that the Hun warriors staying in the Youxian King's court want to escape, you each bring a soldier and horse to outflank the left and right sides, and completely surround the Youxian King's court!"

"It's best to capture the royal family in the royal court alive this time, but if they dare to resist, they will be killed."

"promise!"

Wang Yan and Wang Yue took the command, and each of them brought a soldier and horse to outflank the past, blocking Azanu who was about to escape on the road.

On the other hand, Wang Li directed Lei Qi to "plow the ground" from the front.

Those who wanted to resist in the royal court, regardless of the old and weak, women and children, were ruthlessly beheaded by Lei Qi.

The rest were the Huns women and children who were afraid and knelt on the ground tremblingly to express their submission to Lei Qi.

Soon, Wang Yan and Wang Yue returned with the bound Azanu, and there were more Hun leaders and warriors behind them.

At the same time, there were several female slaves who looked like people from the Central Plains.

Seeing this, Wang Li frowned slightly, and immediately looked at Azanu, took a look, and waved directly: "I will take it away!"

Seeing Lei Qi dragging him forward, Azanu said in horror, "I am willing to surrender, I am willing to surrender to Qin!"

Hearing what Azanu said, the female slave hurriedly translated it to Wang Li.

Wang Li laughed lightly after hearing this, and said disdainfully, "It's already in my hands, so you still have the right to negotiate terms with me?"

"take away!"

Lei Qi heard the words and dragged Azanu away who was screaming crazily.

Wang Li didn't say much, and directed Lei Qi to tie up the captive Xiongnu leaders and royal family, and at the same time sent another group of people to collect the cattle, sheep and horses around the royal court, preparing to bring the gathered spoils back to Jiuyuan.

Afterwards, Wang Li brought Wang Yan and Wang Yue to the gorgeous tooth tent in the court of King Youxian.

The three of them chuckled and chopped down the white wolf flag, which symbolized the power of Youxian King, and tore the overturned white wolf flag from the flagpole, and kept it as a trophy.

Immediately afterwards, the three of them planted a black flag with the characters of Qin on the side.

And wrote on the tooth tent with the blood of the Huns: "Wang Li, Wang Yan, Wang Yue led the Thunder Riders to smash the court of the Right Wise King!"

After finishing writing, the three of them looked at each other and smiled, waiting for the Thunder Rider under him to collect the spoils.

When Wang Li and the others left the Youxian King's court, the original team of 2 people had turned into a team of more than [-] people.

The captured Xiongnu women, children, old and young, driven by Lei Qi, left the court of King Youxian, which had been dilapidated in a day.

"Dear General Qin, we are willing to serve you."

When the traitors of the Huns saw Wang Li and others returning with a full load, they hurried forward to salute.

"Ha ha."

Seeing this, Wang Li chuckled lightly, waved his hand and said, "Go, the rest is yours!"

The Xiongnu traitors were waiting for this sentence, and bowed again and again: "Thank you for your kindness, General Qin, and may Longevity bless you."

After finishing speaking, without further ado, he rushed towards the court of Youxian King like a wild dog.

When they were almost done searching, Wang Li ordered Lei Qihuo to burn down Youxian King's court.

The fire spread, and the flames soared into the sky.

After a while, Wang Li took a deep breath and said, "If Xiang Yu's coalition forces were to attack Xianyang that day, I'm afraid the situation in Xianyang would not be better than it is now."

After saying this, a gratified smile appeared on his face.

"Fortunately, the young master was brave enough to defeat the Allied Forces of the Six Nations. Now that Daqin has recovered, I believe that it won't be long before Daqin's former glory will be revealed, or it will be even better than before."

While speaking, Wang Li's eyes burst into light, and his fists were only clenched.

The front line of Yunzhong County.

After Mao Dun Shanyu was repelled by the Qin army and provoked by Zhao Kun, he had not moved for several days.

This made Zhao Kun in the pass not help vigilant.

In Zhao Kun's view, as the supreme ruler of the Huns, Mao Dun would never let it go if he was ridiculed and provoked like that.

Even he himself, when being provoked and ridiculed by others, would inevitably get on top.

Not to mention the great Chanyu Modun who vented his anger on the translator when he was furious.

Now there is silence outside the pass, and the Huns did not attack or transfer at all.

From this point of view, Mouton Chanyu should be planning something.

When the Xiongnu army did not move, Zhao Kun was not idle. He sent people to mobilize more arrows and ordnance.

At the same time, Li Xin's [-] Liaodong Army was called to Yunzhong County.

When Zhao Kun learned that Li Xin had equipped these 1 people with muskets, he immediately laughed and said: "With these 1 people, I am afraid that even if there are 10 more Huns, it will be difficult for our army to conquer the pass."

After a few days of peace and quiet, suddenly clouds of black smoke rose outside the pass.

After hearing the news, Zhao Kun immediately ran to the city wall to check the situation, but found that under the black smoke, he couldn't see the movement of the Huns clearly.

Moreover, the black smoke became thicker and thicker, and even Zhao Kun couldn't see the situation ten feet away clearly.

Seeing this, Zhao Kun instantly understood the plan of the Huns.

They were afraid of the crossbow arrows of the soldiers of the Qin army, and wanted to weaken the combat power of the Qin crossbow by blocking their sight.

At the same time, thick smoke can be used to obscure their actions.

"Attention the whole army, beware of the Xiongnu's sneak attack, cover your mouth and nose with a wet handkerchief to prevent inhalation of excessive smoke!"

Hearing Zhao Kun's order, the soldiers of the Qin army immediately started to act.

Everyone quickly took out their square scarves, dipped them in water, and tied them on their faces as simple masks to cover their mouths and noses.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Kun walked to the bed crossbow and signaled the Qin army to string the bed crossbow.

And he aimed the bed crossbow into the thick smoke, and fired the crossbow suddenly.

"Ahhh-!"

With several screams, Zhao Kun was sure that the Huns had already started to attack.

"The crossbowman is on the string, and shoots intensively into the thick smoke. Don't be stingy with the crossbow arrows, let me shoot hard!"

Zhao Kun loudly ordered the crossbowmen of the Qin army to fire arrows. Seeing this, Ge Ying immediately beat the drums.

The soldiers of the Qin army immediately entered a fighting state.

Countless crossbow arrows were shot into the thick smoke, and the Hun warriors who were covered by the thick smoke fell down instantly.

However, the thick smoke obscured the sight, and the Qin Army's crossbowmen could only fire by feeling, and the hit rate was greatly reduced.

The Xiongnu warriors also took the opportunity to quickly rush under the city wall and started today's siege battle.
