Chapter 577 Victory Comes So Unexpectedly

Chapter 577 Victory Comes So Unexpectedly
The scorching sun is like a fire, and its warm light sprinkles on the earth.

Harvested fields, meandering rivers, pastures full of pastures, and undulating hills, occasionally interspersed with patches of sparse or densely planted woods.

The fertile soil of the North is not the almost unchanging desolation in the impression.

On the Yunzhong Plain between the Daqing Mountain and the Manhan Mountain, due to the irrigation impact of the Yunzhong River from the north to the south, this small plain has diverse and rich terrain.

Although before the Huns entered the bandits, the local people had rushed to gather all the food in the city.

But the degree of development here is not high, and there are dense pastures and numbers outside the farmland.

Especially on both sides of the river, there are abundant water and grass, which is the favorite environment of nomadic tribes.

The old camp of the Dazhuo tribe was set up in a Han family village near the river bank.

The village is huge, with hundreds of households, it can be called a town.

The Han people in the village had already fled into the city, protecting themselves with the thick city wall.

The few who did not have time to escape were all killed or captured by the Huns and cleaned up.

This place was chosen very well. The terrain is slightly higher than the surrounding area. Not far away is the Beiyunzhong River, and there is a forest on the other side of the mountain.It is very convenient to fetch water or collect firewood.

The Dazhuo tribe is a vassal of the Baiyang tribe. This time, they followed the Baiyang tribe into Kouhan, looting villages and towns along the way and getting a lot of good things.

At this time, the tribal leader Zhuo La was admiring the captured spoils in the best house in the village.

There are a lot of trophies, from money and cloth to iron farm tools, from pots and pans to needles and brains, basically everything.

Every time they enter Kouhan, it is a carnival feast for the Xiongnu tribe, as long as it is not a top-notch attacking the city.

The main force of the Aries Department besieged Chengle City, more than 200 miles away.

The siege of the city was not to attack the city, but to trap the Han army inside and prevent them from coming out to attack the tribes.

Although I know that if we break through the city, the good things captured will be several times or even dozens of times that of the outside.

But they have suffered a lot, and no one really wants to attack the city.

The vassals of the Aries Department looted and collected supplies.

When these things returned to the grassland, most of them had to be handed over to the Aries Department.

No way, a vassal is a vassal.

Chouji's favorite trophy was wine.

The wine brewed by the Han'er is really a good thing. After drinking it in a jar, the head will feel dizzy, and the whole person will feel ecstatic and comfortable.

That day, he was drinking wine happily, but a tribal warrior rushed in and yelled at him, "Something went wrong, there is a Han Qi coming towards us!"

Just such a sentence made Zhuo's head, which was a little dizzy, instantly wake up.

While waking up, cold sweat also fell down.

Han cavalry!

At this time, the Han army's combat method was still mainly infantry, and the cavalry was a combat force attached to the infantry, which was mainly used for investigation and harassment after the breakup.

The large-scale intensive use of cavalry in combat will have to wait until Wei Qinghuo Qubing rises.

At least in this era, the appearance of the Han cavalry means that a large number of Han troops are about to arrive.

The Zhuo who got up suddenly, eagerly wandered around the room like ants on a hot pot, "I said a long time ago, it's time to go back when the robbing is almost done. If you don't listen, you just don't listen!"

He eagerly asked the warrior, "How many are here?"

"I'm afraid there are no less than a thousand people!"

"What?!" Zhuo's legs softened and he almost sat on the ground.

He has dealt with the Han army all the year round, and he roughly understands the establishment of the Han army.

The ratio of cavalry to infantry in the Han army was basically maintained at one to ten.

In other words, there are tens of thousands of Han troops rushing towards him? !

In the wild battle, the Huns used the method of harassment, and the probability of winning was higher.

But now that people have reached the gate of the old camp, there is no place for you to be harassed.

As for face-to-face head-to-head confrontation. The total number of men, women, old and children in the Dazhuo Department is only [-]. It is estimated that there are not as many soldiers and horses as others.

"Let all the warriors who went out come back! Ask the Aries Department for help!!"

He screamed loudly, but immediately stopped the warriors who were about to go out, "It's too late! The warriors are fighting grass valleys everywhere, and the Aries are more than 200 miles away. It's too late. Go! You can go!" All the people go, get on the horse and take all the people to find the white sheep
Ministry to go! "

Li Yunze, who was fully clothed, rode forward with a strong bow in his hand.

He looked at the Huns camp a few miles away, and he was already ready for the battle.

According to his observation and judgment based on his experience, the old camp of the Huns on the opposite side was not large in scale, and the entire tribe supported ten thousand people to death.

In other words, at most three or four thousand people can be drawn to fight.

This is the number from fifteen to sixty, all mounted on horses and holding bows.

And the real young and strong must be playing grass outside, so the victory rate is very high.

Suddenly, a large number of cavalry rushed out of a village a few miles away. The sheer number made Li Yunze doubt his own experience and judgment.

He took a deep breath, and was about to order his soldiers to dismount and line up.

But he was stunned to see that those Hun cavalry who rushed out without any hesitation in horsepower, ran west without knowing their heads.

Li Yunze's troops came from the south.

Moreover, his eyesight is very good, and he has already seen that not only men, but also women with children in their arms, and even old men are riding on horses.

A lot of people were carrying cloths on their backs and hanging all kinds of gadgets. They didn't have the slightest intention of rushing over, and ran to the west desperately.

Li Yunze was also a little dazed by this scene of divine manipulation.

Fortunately, he figured it out quickly, and burst out laughing.

Zhao Yan, who had finally improved, rode his horse forward at the right time, "Why are you laughing, Your Majesty?"

"I'm laughing at Brother Pig cough, I'm laughing at how cowardly these Huns are! Seeing that I'm coming with a large army, I don't even dare to fight, they all ran away!"

"Hahahaha~~~"

When the news came out, the entire army was naturally cheered.

Although it is said that Zhuoji fell into the habit of thinking, and was scared away by the tens of thousands of troops in his imagination.After all, the large-scale separate attack of the cavalry of the Han army has basically never happened.

But to scare away is to scare away, there is no doubt about it.

The so-called cavalry brought by Li Yunze had only received several months of horse riding training.

The only thing they learned was to be able to ride a horse. As for cavalry combat, they couldn't do it at all.

But after all, they were the regular army of the Han army, and they all came on horseback. The clumsy drinker lost his judgment, and even chose to escape without carefully observing the enemy's situation. It was his own bad luck, and Li Yunze could not blame him.

Li Yunze, who had a windfall, immediately waved forward, "Rush in!"

The morale-boosting soldiers of the Zhongshan Kingdom broke into the Huns' camp with great enthusiasm, not only seized a lot of supplies, but also arrested thousands of old and weak people who hadn't had time to escape, and even the cattle that were grazing by the river not far away. The sheep and horses were also taken together.

"Wu Gang!"

Li Yunze summoned the Zhongshan State Lieutenant, and immediately ordered "Arrange a group of crossbowmen to lie in ambush, and then find someone to pretend to be the Huns to graze the herds outside."

Wu Gang didn't understand, what's the meaning?
Li Yunze also patiently explained, "This tribe must have a large number of people going out to fight Caogu without being notified in time, and they will all be wiped out after wave after wave. This kind of good opportunity is rare, we must seize it."

"Here~~~"

The judgment I made based on my own rich experience was not wrong. In the next two days, many warriors from the Great Clumsy Department who went out to fight grass came back one after another.

Not surprisingly, these warriors, ranging from dozens to as many as two or three hundred, were quickly eaten by mouthfuls.

The reason is also very simple. On the one hand, the organizational ability of the Huns is actually very poor, especially the vassal tribes are not as rigorous as the full-time regular army.

On the other hand, it was because Zhuo escaped too hastily, and did not notify the people who were going out at all.

The last and most important reason is that the warriors of these vassal tribes never thought about their hometown being stolen without bloodshed!
In two days, more than a thousand unsuspecting warriors were eliminated one after another, but their own losses were minimal.

Unprepared, waves of crossbow arrows shot past, and a large number of Han soldiers who had already installed their halberd rings as spears or rifles surrounded them and stabbed them randomly, with almost no chance to fight back.

While eliminating these grass-throwing warriors, the trophies they brought back naturally fell into the hands of the Han army.

Among them were many Han people who were taken captive, and even a Han army sergeant.

"You are all Wu Yao, Wu Gao's sergeant?"

In the innermost and largest courtyard, Li Yunze was asking the captured Han army sergeant, "Why were you arrested?"

The escaped sergeant knew that the man in front of him turned out to be the king of Zhongshan Kingdom.

Although he wondered why the King of Zhongshan Kingdom appeared here, he still answered the question respectfully, "My lord, I was ordered to send messages to Chengle and Wujin."

"What's the content?"

Facing the questioning, the sergeant hesitated a little, but he still said, "Captain Wu Gao Han, Wu wants Captain Chen to join forces with [-] troops to rescue Chengle, and meet with Captain Zhao Wujin."

The so-called Chengle is Chengle County, which is the county seat of Dingxiang County.

As for Dingxiang County, in fact, the original Yunzhong County was divided into two and separated.

Its location is roughly 200 miles southeast of this place, backed by the western foot of Manhan Mountain, and south of the mountain is the Nanyunzhong River.

This place is not unusual. What really interested Li Yunze was that the governor of Dingxiang County stationed in Chengle City was the "undefeated general" Cheng Bushi known as "invincible everywhere". .

Before the rise of Wei Huo, the most famous generals of the Han Dynasty were Zhou Yafu and Dou Ying.

In the Great Wall Army, the most famous generals are Li Guang, Wei Shang and Cheng Bushi.

As for Feng Tang, he offended the emperor Liu Qi, was kicked to the state of Chu to be the prime minister, and was soon dismissed and returned home.

Needless to say, Li Guang, the famous parachutist, is now the prefect of Shangjun, in charge of the defense line in the north of Jingzhao Pass.

As for Wei Shang, he was the governor of Yunzhong. When he was guarding Yunzhong, the Huns were afraid and did not dare to approach him.

It's a pity that Wei Shang passed away a few years ago, otherwise the Huns would not dare to cross the cloud and go deep into Dingxiang County this time.

Another thing is that I don't know Cheng.

This person is not well-known in the history books, but he is known as Invincible, and he is an important general of the Great Wall Corps.

Li Yunze was thoughtful, and asked the sergeant, "Wu Gaowu wants soldiers and horses, is it difficult to advance because of obstacles on the way?"

The sergeant was surprised, and quickly responded, "Exactly."

Raising his hand and stroking his chin, Li Yunze sensed a fighter!
