Chapter 99: Exclusion of the Southern Huns ([-])
Night came quietly.

Under cover of darkness, the [-]-strong army led by Huang Zhong and Xu Huang arrived at a place fifteen miles outside the court of Meiji Shanyu from Pianguan to rest and recuperate. Royal Court.

Huang Zhong was familiar with this matter the first time. Although he was equally nervous, he was much calmer than the first time.

In the night, the tents in the southern Huns camp were like sleeping giants, emitting faint lights.The sentries outside were stirring in their sleep, because in their minds, the Han people had been driven away by the army.Besides, there are tens of thousands of troops and 20 tribesmen here, and it is impossible for the Han people to be stupid enough to directly attack and kill the royal court.

That is courting death!
However, things were so unfortunate. On this night when they were least prepared, the Han army came.

Not only are they here, they are also elite.

While he was sleeping, he quietly approached the tent, launched a sudden attack, and quickly shuttled between the tents.

This scene seemed familiar, because the last time it was attacked was Xianbei Danhan Mountain.

Noise, confusion, and wailing began to spread.

The tents in the camp were covered with sharp arrows and flames. The flames jumped in the night, illuminating a messy scene.The Southern Huns were awakened from their sleep, their frightened eyes full of helplessness.

The camp was filled with screams and calls for help, like a symphony from hell.The people who were awakened were looking for a way out in a panic, but the figures of the Han army became increasingly clear in the night.

The war horses in the camp ran wildly in panic, trying to find safe refuge.However, the ubiquitous flames of war leave them with nowhere to escape and can only become victims of war.

The flames burned down the tents and provisions, and the smell of burnt and blood filled the air.The former home was now in ruins. The three thousand Huolin Army led by Huang Zhong were like sharp spikes that penetrated the entire camp of the Southern Huns.

The Han army was familiar with the road. They killed people when they saw them and released fire when they saw them. They could hit with one blow and escape on the spot without entanglement.

In one hour, from the third watch to the fifth watch, Qiangqu Shanyu tried his best to organize troops to encircle and suppress the 8000 people of Huang Zhong and Xu Huang, but they all failed.

First, because the fire caused great chaos, the Southern Xiongnu army was unable to form a large-scale counterattack formation; second, the main battle troops who stayed at the court of Meiji Shanyu were not the main battle troops, and the main battle troops were all sent out during the day. , there is no news so far, so there is a big difference in this aspect of the battle; thirdly, this Han army is armed to the teeth and absolutely elite, and is led by a general who can defeat ten thousand enemies. It has strict military discipline and is familiar with what it does. , obviously this is not the first time he has done this.

Qiang Qu could only stand on Meiji City and watch his tribesmen being unilaterally massacred.

He was not implicated in the night attack, not only because he had the most elite royal guards of the Southern Huns around him, but also because he originally regarded the Han people's Meiji City as his own royal court, otherwise he would also suffer at this moment.

However, no matter how much losses there are outside, the panicked people cannot be allowed in, otherwise the Han army will come one after another, and the three thousand guards of the royal court are no match at all. Once the royal court is breached, the consequences will be disastrous.

As the sky in the east turned white, the army that attacked at night retreated on horseback, leaving only chicken feathers on the ground.

When the night attack ended, the camp was in ruins.The surviving Southern Huns lay helplessly on the ground, and the blood and fire became the memory of this land.And the army that attacked at night disappeared into the night like a ghost, leaving only a messy camp and countless dead souls.

Qiang Qu clenched his fists tightly, his eyes about to burst, and he said bitterly: "Put out the fire immediately, treat the injured people, repair the fortifications, kill all the people on duty last night, and put the Tanma twenty miles away from the camp. All those who survived will enter the city tonight!"

It's impossible to do it during the day, because the outside needs to be cleaned up, and the inside needs to be freed up with space and manpower. It takes a whole day to hurry up and slow down. #
"Hahahaha! It's great! General Huang, this battle is very satisfying!"

The person who said this was Xu Huang who was riding away. He did not participate in last year's surprise attack on Danhan Mountain. This was the first time he experienced such an exciting battle. Xu Huang now felt that every cell in his body was full of vitality. "General Huang, why don't you go back and charge for a while? There is not much resistance from the Southern Huns."

That's right, because basically all the elites of the Royal Court of Meiji were sent out, leaving only an army with little combat power. Therefore, the army that attacked at night did not suffer much losses. The army of 8000 people, be careful after the war, died 370 times. Among them, 28 people were killed by the Huolin Army and [-] were injured. [-] people were injured by the Huolin Army. Basically, they were all minor injuries.

"No." Huang Zhong rejected Xu Huang's proposal. "The Huolin Army is a heavily armored cavalry. It has been fighting for two hours now. The weather is hot, the men and horses are exhausted, and they must rest. Besides, General Gongming, 8000 people have been fighting for a day and a night. , This is also our limit. If we continue to fight, the combat effectiveness of the army will be less than [-]%, and the enemy must be on guard. The gains outweigh the losses by going back."

Although Huang Zhong was filled with joy at this moment, he was not dazzled by the victory after all. He always remained calm and made the choice that was most beneficial to the army.

"The lord's army is estimated to be less than a hundred miles away from Meiji. Now that the first phase of our combat mission has been completed, we should regain our strength as soon as possible and join the lord."

"The last will obey!"

Xu Huang regained his composure after listening to Huang Zhong's words. The most important thing for the army is to strictly implement military orders, especially in Liu Han's army, the commander-in-chief has the highest authority.

"Immediately a flying pigeon sent a message to the lord. The night attack was successful. The army took a short rest and then joined the lord."

"Here."

#
Mei Ji.

It took another two hours before the outside was cleared.

Zuo Daqiequ Subulin walked into the king's tent and said, "Chanyu, the Han army attacked the camp yesterday, and the casualties have been calculated."

Qiang Qu stared coldly at Sublin's statistics. More than 3000 warriors were killed and 3 warriors were injured, 40 of whom were seriously injured. 4 horses were lost. The loss of food and grass was estimated at [-] shi. More than [-] people died, and as many as [-] were injured. Most of them were injured due to chaos.

"what!"

The entire Shan Yuting has nearly 30 people, and the [-]-strong army has now suffered more than half of its casualties. Such losses may not be recovered in ten years!

Qiang Qu gasped for air and forced himself to calm down, "Sublin, what do you think we should do?"

Sublin also looked solemn at this moment. The 1 troops that have gone out now are probably in danger. Now the entire Southern Huns, including the guards of the royal court, have less than [-] capable warriors. It can be said that they are in danger.

"We can't stay in Xihe County any longer. If you want, Shanyu, you can write to the Emperor of Han to get his understanding and ask him to make the decision. Otherwise, the Xiongnu will disappear completely!"
