Qiang Qin

The people who were shot had been buried underground, but there was no sadness on their faces, but joy and surprise on their faces.What could be more heart-pounding than suddenly meeting your brother in enemy territory?

After confirming each other that the other party was a soldier of Daqin like himself, everyone immediately stopped fighting, and then started chatting with each other.Knowing that these people who came were actually Zi Du and the people he led that his group was still talking about a few days ago, all the people who followed Chao An were very excited.In their hearts, only Zidu and other [-] people have all been buried on the grassland. In their hearts, these people are already their idols. Unexpectedly, these people not only did not die in battle, but also appeared on their own. In front of them, this cannot but make everyone feel rejoiced.

Zidu told the story of his battle with the Huns on the grassland, and then said: "Now I am rushing back to Xianyang to present the news and tokens that King Yueshi promised to join hands with us to fight against the Huns. Your Majesty, why did you come here, and why are you still so vigilant, and when you see us, you can't help but hurt people?"

"The emperor has accepted the advice of the ministers and no longer intends to destroy the Huns by force..." Chao An explained Fusu's new decision, "...the purpose of ordering me to come to the grassland this time is to fight with the Huns." The Yuezhi joined forces, and after inflicting heavy losses on the Huns, we can discuss with them a peaceful solution to the enmity between us. Now General Peng has brought the news that the Yuezhi King agreed to cooperate, Then I don't have to rush to the Yuezhi, but I can return to Xianyang to report to the emperor."

Only then did Zidu know why such a group of people appeared here, and it turned out that they also wanted to go to Yuezhi. "Lord Chao hasn't told me why you shot us when you saw us, but because your whereabouts have already been known by the Huns?"

Chao An sighed, and told the story of how he and others met the Huns cavalry a few days ago and killed them all, and then said: "Kill these cavalry cruising on the grassland, the Huns will soon find out , when the time comes, the Huns will definitely send troops to catch up from behind. We were also too worried and scared, so we rushed to attack after seeing the general and his party without paying close attention, and several soldiers died of exhaustion. It’s really ashamed to be here.”

Zidu was also stunned when he heard the words, he didn't expect that the matter was more serious than what he thought.Since Chao Ang and the others killed a group of Huns cavalry, the Huns would definitely not let them go, and this is a grassland after all, and my people are not as flexible and familiar with the environment as the Huns whether it is fighting or fleeing. Big trouble.After thinking for a while, he said: "Now we have no other way, although we can continue to go to Yuezhi, but we don't know whether the Huns have deployed troops in the direction leading to Yuezhi, so now we Even if you know that the road back to the Central Plains is full of dangers and traps, you still have to make a dash for it. The only advantage for us now is that the Huns must never have thought that the two of us would meet here, and they must only think of you as a hundred people That’s all, in this way they might disperse their troops and give us an opportunity to take advantage of it.”

Chao Ang nodded in agreement and said, "That's right, now we can only make a dash for it. I hope that the Huns will really disperse their troops to track down our whereabouts as the general said, so that we can stand out with superior forces. That's right. We are not careful, otherwise General Peng and you can return to Xianyang safely."

"Now is the time, why bother talking about this. Besides, we cannot guarantee that we will not be discovered by the Huns after we enter the grassland. Now we should discuss and determine the most convenient route." Zidu hurriedly said.

The two of them, together with the warriors sent by King Yuezhi to the Central Plains and a few warriors familiar with the grassland, drew a sketch of the grassland with their swords on the muddy ground by the river, and discussed how to find the most suitable one. Easy road.It wasn't until the sun set in the west that they decided on a path, and then everyone ate dry food and fell asleep.With the addition of several hundred people like Zidu, the people of Qin felt more at ease, and slept until dawn.

The sergeants, who had rested for a whole day, had recovered to their best condition. After carefully checking the crossbows, swords and other weapons, they embarked on the road back to the Central Plains under the leadership of Zidu.

As soon as they set off together, a Hun cavalry of hundreds of people came towards them, but it was the Hun who followed the trail of Chao An and others and killed them.When they saw a group of people by the river from a distance, they paid attention, their arrows were unwound, and their knives were unsheathed, ready to fight.But they didn't expect that the number of enemies here would be several times greater than what the man who escaped from death said. When they charged up and were about to siege the enemies, they found that they were surrounded by the enemies .

The Qin army here is one of the best fighters whether it is protecting Chao An or following Zidu. As soon as they saw the Huns cavalry killing them, they had already dispersed and rushed up from both sides. Surrounded these Huns.

It turned out that the Huns, who were only thinking about killing the enemy, were stunned for a while. They rushed forward to face the Qin soldiers who were waiting in full battle. Their left and right sides were attacked by Qin soldiers at the same time. After a while, the Huns fell into a trap. disadvantage.Then their formation was dispersed and cut off by Qin Bing.The next thing was much simpler. Everyone in Qin Bing hated the Huns, so naturally they would not let them continue to live.In less than half an hour, the [-] or so Hun cavalry were wiped out.

After killing all the Huns, Zidu ordered the soldiers to go back on the road. At this time, the sun had not yet set in the sky.

They headed east first, instead of rushing to leave the grassland all the way south, they entered again where the Huns gathered most densely.This is a strategy they thought of last night, that is, since the Huns already knew that Chao Ang and the others were on the grassland, they would definitely immediately think of blocking the way back to the south. On the other hand, the Huns must be able to guess that their goal is in the west, so it is not safe to go west.On the contrary, the hinterland of the Huns themselves may be the weakest place for their search. After they get there, they can find another way.

After a few days, everyone felt that this strategy was very successful.They didn't meet too many Huns cavalry along the way, and when they saw that they were heading east, those cavalry didn't have any doubts about them, so they just watched these hundreds of people left.This made all the sergeants very excited, and they said it was God's blessing.Lian Zidu and others also found this incredible. When they saw the cavalry of the Huns, they were prepared to fight, but the result was like this.

In fact, this is because they don't know the current situation on the grassland. There are only less than 3 cavalry left on the grassland now, so Mouton is still leading [-] horses to plunder the villages and towns in the Central Plains.In this way, they cannot send too many troops to search for the whereabouts of the enemy who killed their own people.After all, Zidu's massacre of the Huns a year ago still made them jealous. They were deeply afraid that this was a plot of the Qin people. After transferring their army away, those ordinary tribesmen would be killed.And judging from the information they got, the number of enemies that penetrated into the grassland is not too many. As long as a certain amount of troops are deployed in the south and troops are sent to chase west, these people will naturally not be able to escape.

Their reactions were all predicted by Zidu and others, so they were able to walk through the hinterland of the grassland without attracting the attention of the Huns.Qin Jun, who had been rushing all the way for several days, stopped when he was approaching Shanyu's big tent.Then they began to travel day and night, carefully avoiding the Huns and leaning toward the south.

After a few days, they were getting closer and closer to the edge of the prairie. Seeing that they were about to leave the prairie and return to their hometown in such a thrilling manner, everyone had relaxed smiles on their faces.That night they continued to head south under the shining starlight, only to find that a very large team loomed in front of them. Judging from the sparse formation, it was the army of the Huns, and judging from the appearance of their camps Looking at it, the number of this army is no less than 3.

Seeing the Huns army in front of them, everyone was dumbfounded. They didn't know where they came from, and how they appeared on the only way back to the Central Plains.Although it was the third watch and the weather was still cool, Zidu still broke out in cold sweat on his back.He knew that this was the only way they had to go, and it would be impossible to bypass this place, and the detour might also alarm the Huns there.The only way now is to take the risk of passing by them. If this army is awakened, I am afraid that people like themselves will only end up being trampled into flesh.

Zidu whispered to the people: "Now we have to pass by the side of the Huns, and our horses' hooves are too loud to be noticed by them, so we have to abandon our horses and go. This is far from my Daqin Nine Yuan County is not far away, as long as we run with all our strength, we can rush out of the grassland and return to Jiuyuan County before dawn. But this distance is not too short, it is time to test us, do you dare to give it a try?"

All the Qin soldiers nodded silently after looking at each other.Zidu said: "In this case, everyone should take their weapons with them, discard everything else, and then quietly pass by the Huns' tent." He was the first to jump off the horse.The other Qin soldiers also jumped off their horses, and followed him quietly forward.

This is a gambling adventure, they can return safely if they win, otherwise they will have to die here...
