The so-called Xianbei and Wuhuan are actually a family.

Their ancestors were Donghu who was defeated by Mao Dun Shanyu.

In the Altaic language, Donghu is called Tungus in transliteration.

The grievances and enmities between the Tungus line and the Han family really run through the entire history book, and have been entangled for thousands of years.

After Donghu was defeated by Maodun Shanyu, its remnants retreated to Xianbei Mountain and Wuhuan Mountain respectively, and became slave tribes of the Huns.

Over time, they also used Xianbei Mountain and Wuhuan Mountain as their clan names.

When Yi Zhixie encountered an unexpected situation, he naturally threw out these slave tribes and used them as cannon fodder to slow down the Han army.

This time the Huns who followed him into the invasion and crossed the Great Wall were more than tens of thousands, and so many soldiers and horses were scattered in various places from Youbeiping County to Yuyang County. It would take at least a few days just to pass on the news to them. .

Moreover, they also looted so many supplies and captured so many slaves. It would take time to transport these out of the Great Wall.

Facing the main force of the Han army's elite cavalry that was about to arrive on the battlefield, Yi Zhixie, who had not yet fully integrated the Huns, did not think he could win against them.

Even if he can win, he will use up all his strength, and when he returns to the grassland, he will end up in the same fate as the military minister Shanyu.

So Yi Zhixie responded like a nomadic tribe, and ran away first.

Escaping also takes time, so it is natural to arrange forces to stop the pursuers.

The Xianbei people and Wuhuan people were regarded by Yi Zhixie as fat meat to stop the pursuit of the Han army.

The reason why they were scattered and looted everywhere was because Yizhi's idea was that the Han army had come, so he couldn't ignore the looting in the countryside, and wait until the Han army dispersed and wiped out those Xianbei people and Wu When Huan was a native, Yi Zhixie had already led the

The horses and the booty are out.

Wei Qing didn't expect his whereabouts to be exposed in advance. In fact, if Wei Qing were to take command 20 years later, after he arrived in Dai County, he would not continue to take the mountain road into Shanggu County, but would simply leave Dai County. , with the cavalry's super machine
Without power, he galloped directly on the flat prairie, heading straight to the gap in You Beiping.

Still young and inexperienced, he wasted a lot of time in the mountains of Shanggu County.

What Yi Zhixie didn't expect here was that when Wei Qing's troops finally arrived in Yuyang County, they ignored those Xianbei and Wuhuan people who looted the village like a stone, but went straight to the gap in Youbeiping .

Yi Zhixie was greatly shocked by this decisiveness.

He now has two choices, either stop, gather strength and Wei Qing's pursuers, and fight to the death on the flat land of Hebei.

Or just abandon the people and supplies that have not been taken away, and run away.

According to the tradition of the Huns, Yi Zhixie chose to abandon the remaining spoils and run away without the slightest hesitation.

Stay here to fight to the death, and naturally needless to say if you lose, I guess even Yi Zhixie has to explain here.

Even if he wins, in terms of the fighting power of the Han army, Yi Zhixie must have won a disastrous victory, the one whose strength was exhausted.

The tradition on the prairie is that strength is the most important thing, and when strength is exhausted, it will naturally be replaced by others. Then his status and reputation, wealth, cattle and sheep, the spoils of this invasion, and even his Yan family belong to others.

That's how their civilization is, so Yizhixie has no choice.

Abandoning the trophies and population that have not yet been sent to the side wall, Yi Zhixie can only comfort himself, "Fortunately, a lot has been transported away before, and this time it is still profitable." '

However, what he didn't expect was that Wei Qing once again ignored the abandoned trophies and the captive population, unswervingly followed and rushed out of the side wall, continuing to chase and kill Yi Zhixie.

Although Wei Qing was not very experienced at this time, he had firmly grasped the core of the problem, that is, not caring about anything, just chasing after the king's court of the Huns!
Yi Zhixie never imagined that the Han army would chase them out of the Great Wall.

He was also enraged, and mobilized his troops to prepare to fight the Han army on the bank of the Liaoshui River.

If you don't fight in Han, it's nothing to escape, but if you go to the grassland and be chased like a dog, it will be a heavy blow to the prestige of the Great Chanyu.

"The rear general."

A former military sentry rode their horses up to Wei Qing and reported loudly, "The Xiongnu Shanyu Wangting, Zuoguli, Zuoxian Wang, Huyan, and Xubu have all gathered troops on the shore. There are many troops, no less than [-]. public."

When Yi Zhi crossed into the bandits before, his royal court was actually only two hundred miles away from the side wall, and Liu Ling led it to receive the looted supplies and people.

When Wei Qing was chasing after Yi Zhi, because he was not familiar with the environment outside the Great Wall, he ran after Yi Zhi, not noticing Wang Ting who was close at hand.

What is catching up now is the fighting force that Yi Zhixie can control, and the population of their Wangting tribe is more than a hundred miles away from the nearest one.

When they invaded Han, the Huns could rely on the looted supplies to survive.

But now that they have returned to the grassland, they need to rely on their own tribe to provide dairy products and meat to survive.

This is the characteristic of nomadic tribes. In terms of tactics, they have strong mobility, but in terms of strategy, they must be supported by the royal court's population and materials.

"it is good."

Wei Qing on the horse nodded vigorously, then turned the horse's head and looked around at the school captain Sima.

He took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "Everyone, we have caught up with the Huns, and today is the day to make contributions!"

"Oh~~~"

The excited crowd cheered loudly, full of fighting spirit.

Don't look at the fact that the Han army has only [-] cavalry, but the opposite side has as many as [-], but these school lieutenants and Sima are very clear that their fighting power is stronger and their chances of winning are greater.

As long as he can win, he will naturally be rewarded when he returns to Chang'an City.

Wei Qing calmed down the turbulent emotions, and began to make combat arrangements, "Gongsun He, you have twelve songs, and charge from the left."

Gongsun He saluted immediately, "Here!"

"Li Xi, you have fifteen songs, rush from the right."

Li Xi also immediately took orders, "Here!"

"The rest of the trilogy, follow the general to fight, and go straight to the Xiongnu's army!"

"Here!!"

Han military system, a song of 500 people, led by the military marquis.

Several songs are divided into one, which is unified by the school lieutenant and the army Sima. This is the origin of the word "partial song".

The titles of generals in this era are very valuable. For example, only Wei Qing has the official title of a general in this era, and even if he is a long history who assists in command, Sima and others can't mix up the title of a general. .

The Han army, which was at a disadvantage in numbers, took the initiative to attack the Huns.

This surprised Yi Zhixie.

What surprised him even more was that the cavalry, who used to play a supporting role in the Han army, now showed unprecedented combat effectiveness.

Almost all the cavalry of the Han army are equipped with armor, and they are skilled in techniques and tactics, well-trained and well-equipped.

The Huns launched a counter-charge, and tens of thousands of cavalry galloped on the banks of the Liaoshui River.

As soon as the two sides fought, the horsemanship ability that the Huns were originally proud of was washed to pieces.

The Han army has stirrups and saddles, freeing their hands, and their ability to control horses is not weaker than those of the Huns who grew up on horseback.

They brandished weapons, and the Huns who only had leather armor had almost no chance of being hit when they were hit.

However, the Han army had many iron armors, so it suffered very little damage.

After rounds of hedging, most of the Huns who fell to the ground were Hun cavalry.

When the battle between the two sides gradually fell into a state of anxiety, Wei Qing personally led thousands of armored cavalry to appear on the battlefield, and thousands of cavalry with horses and horses came straight towards Yizhi diagonally.

Looking at the Great Wall of Steel in the distance with dazzling metallic luster in the sun, Yizhi's mouth was parched and his heart was beating violently.

Without hesitation, he ordered the Lan clan in front to fight.

Then, Yi Zhixie watched as thousands of warriors from the Lan clan quickly melted into the metal Great Wall.

The light cavalry with bows and arrows as the main weapon confronts the armored cavalry equipped with armor and horse armor. Only those who can fight will win.

Li Yunze supported this armored cavalry for the sole purpose of crushing the Huns in a decisive battle.

And now, it's time for results.

Yi Zhixie finally woke up.

He finally understood that the Han cavalry who had been armed from the soles of their feet to Tianlinggai could not be defeated by the current Huns.

Arrows and weapons greeted the past, but they stood still, how could they fight like this!
Even the horses are equipped with horse armor, so it's useless to try to shoot them.

Yi Zhixie, who came to her senses, immediately made a decision.

"withdraw!"

The low sound of the horn resounded through the entire battlefield again.

If the Huns were all infantry, then these tens of thousands of people would have to be accounted for here today.

If the Huns had mixed cavalry, at most only some of the cavalry could escape.

At this time, the Huns, who were mainly cavalry, escaped many people.

After all, the battlefield is too big. When everyone is running on horseback, it is really not easy to catch up.

However, there were still some gains. The main forces of several large tribes of the Huns were blocked by the armored cavalry personally brought by Wei Qing, and together with Li Xigong and Sun He gathered troops, they forced more than ten thousand Huns to the shore of the Liaoshui River.

The Huns who couldn't escape ran straight into the Liaoshui with their horses by their necks, some jumped off their horses and took off their clothes, and some knelt down and begged for mercy. Army formation.

This battle went from the three pole battles in the sun to the sunset, the first super-large-scale cavalry duel in the Han-Hungary War, and ended with the Han army winning a complete victory.

In this battle, Yi Zhixie mobilized all combat power, so there were no old and weak women and children to make up the numbers, all of them were real combat exploits.

It is impossible to count those who drowned in the Liaoshui, but those who were killed on the battlefield alone exceeded [-] levels, and thousands of prisoners were also captured.

Counting those who were drowned, those wounded among the escaped Huns who died in the following days, etc., in the Battle of Liaoshui, the Huns lost at least 3 people!

These are the real young and strong main force.

Wei Qing chased after him again, but Yi Zhixie fled to the northeast where there are swamps, lakes, forests and rivers.

The Han army lacked supplies and did not understand the terrain and environment, and finally had to retreat with regret.

At the same time, outside the border wall of Shanggu County, thousands of Han militiamen were complaining and getting angry.

They were militiamen who went out with the army and wanted to earn outstanding military exploits, but their leader, Li Guang, lost his mind in the mountains, and unexpectedly left all his men outside the Great Wall in a daze.

The war between the Han and the Hungarians has resumed, not to mention the Huns tribe, not even a wolf on the grassland.

Countless time, money and energy were wasted, but in the end, nothing was achieved.

Everyone naturally wanted to complain, and the target of the complaints could only be Li Guang, who led the team.

At dusk that day, the dark-faced Li Guang sat by the fire to warm himself up, feeling extremely bad.

There were rumors in the army that he, Li Guang, wanted to use his military exploits against the Huns to regain the title he had lost, and even wanted to become a marquis based on it.

So after losing his way one after another, everyone secretly called him 'Mihou' behind his back.

This kind of humiliation naturally made Li Guang furious, and his anger reached the extreme.

"Father!"

Li Guang's eldest son, Li Danghu, rode his horse and rushed to the fire. He got off his horse and gasped, shouting, "There is a tribe of Huns more than ten miles ahead!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Guang jumped up immediately, "Take someone's bow!"
