The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 18 Human Wall and Victory

The Huns camp was actually not far away, and it took only a short while to ride a horse.

However, it took a lot of time to treat the wounded of the Bingzhou Army in time and boost morale, so although this is not far away, the Huns are also prepared.

"Bastard!"

After seeing the arrival of the Bingzhou army, the Xiongnu camp really took action again, but seeing this action, almost all the Bingzhou soldiers were so angry that their stomachs exploded!

Originally, this camp of the Huns should be just a medium-sized tribe, but because the Huns escaped from the previous operation, and after the tip-off, all the Huns gathered together, and within half a day they assembled into a large camp.

Not to mention that the Xiongnu did not have any cities like the mainland of the Central Plains, and the so-called camps were mostly concentrated in tents.

It is impossible for such a temporary camp to have any defensive facilities.

This is why Gao Shun is not in a hurry.

The Huns have lost their courage. Even if they regroup and reorganize, it is impossible to withstand another charge in a short time.

But seeing the scene in front of him, Gao Shun knew that he still underestimated the Xiongnu, he never thought that these Xiongnu could be so cruel.

Rows of Han people stood around the camp in panic, their faces were full of horror, and there seemed to be nothing behind them, but the Huns were hiding behind them, and the sharp arrows were like fangs hidden in the darkness. Once someone gets close, they will pounce on them.

"Damn!"

Although Gao Shun was also angry about this matter, Ci did not command troops. What he was more worried about was the threat posed by the Huns' actions.

The Xiongnu were fierce, and the reason why they dared to invade Bingzhou was not only the speed of horses, but also the strength of bows and arrows.

More importantly, once things go wrong, the Xiongnu can even charge out directly regardless of the life and death of those Han people, and it is not impossible to be defeated at that time.

Wei Tao, who was behind the formation, was also very surprised to see the actions of the Huns.

Although these Han people were slaves, they were still human beings after all, but the Huns did not treat them as human beings.

"Five random flowers..."

Gritting his teeth, Wei Tao had a clear understanding of the possible "five chaos" in the future.

As long as there is a chance, I want to change the situation of "five random China", and I will not go to the Three Kingdoms era in vain!
"The whole army is ready to charge."

But at this moment, Gao Shun still gave the order.

"Don't worry about those people, rush over with all your strength!"

Soldiers take obeying orders as their bounden duty, not to mention that when you are dying, even though you are more or less angry in your heart, the Bingzhou sergeant is still ready to execute the order.

"No general! That's my Han compatriot!"

The person who opened his mouth to stop him was Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao who was only in his teens.

"Execute the order! All preparations, kill!"

How could Gao Shun care about it, no matter how much he valued it during the day, he didn't care much at this time, and Gao Shun came out first when he gave the order.

Hearing Gao Shun's order, the Bingzhou army rushed towards the Huns immediately.

Unlike Zhang Liao, Wei Tao didn't hesitate much.

Wei Tao knew that this day would come sooner or later, so he would not be as naive as Zhang Liao.

In the Yellow Turban Rebellion and after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, many princes fought, and the number of people who died at that time was probably millions of times that at this time. If they dare not do anything even at this time, then don't talk about what will happen in the future.

One will be a million bones.

"Kill! Kill and kill all those Huns!"

Hearing Wei Tao's shout, the speed of charging was a little faster.

"Shoot! Shoot!"

When the Huns saw that the Bingzhou army was really desperate to kill them, they finally couldn't hold on, and dozens of arrows shot straight at them.

It has to be said that the archery skills of the Huns were not bad. The dozens of Bingzhou sergeants in the lead were directly knocked off their horses, and they were dead.

It is a pity that this is the end, the speed of the cavalry will not give them a chance to shoot the second arrow. In this moment, they have already rushed to the front of the human wall.

"Go away!"

Those enslaved Han people didn't know why, but they were a bit stupid, and they didn't even know how to dodge the horses that were galloping at high speed.

Since they refused to let go, the galloping horses had no reason to stop, and slammed into them fiercely, directly knocking those Han people away.

As soon as they fell to the ground, many horses stepped on them, trampling them to death.

"kill!"

At the same time, as soon as they entered the Huns' camp, another Huns cavalry rushed up.

The anger accumulated just now by many Bingzhou sergeants was ignited immediately, and the gravity of the swords and guns slashed, killing the Huns immediately and turning them on their backs.

This time the battle will soon end, and there are only a few dozen people left to kill the Huns.

The Huns were not stupid either, they retreated from the camp early on, and the Han people who stayed here worked hard, and even put on a posture of desperate defense.

Looking again at this time, few of the rows of Han slaves were still alive.

"If we don't charge..."

After all, Zhang Liao was only a boy in his teens, so he just couldn't bear it, and now he felt even more uncomfortable.

"If we don't charge, we will die!"

But he didn't want the other people next to him to answer coldly.

"You have also seen the archery skills of the Huns. Every three arrows took the life of one of our brothers. If we were not fast enough to break through the opponent's defense, then we would be the ones lying down now!"

Originally, it was only one or two people around, but after hearing the dispute on this side, at least half of the people looked at Zhang Liao with strange eyes.

In particular, someone also noticed that Zhang Liao was in the formation, but when he was already in the back position when he charged, his face was even more displeased.

Think about it too, this is a battlefield, who is going to the battlefield who is not fighting with his life, who is willing to go to the battlefield with a guy who is slowing down and even suspected of framing his colleagues?

No matter what Zhang Liao's reason was at the time, at least now he is such an image in the hearts of many Bingzhou sergeants.

"But……"

I have to say that Zhang Liao's ability is indeed good now, but unfortunately he is too young, even at this time he still wants to argue.

Fortunately, before he could speak again, Wei Tao grabbed him and spoke first.

"Everyone, now that this battle has been won and the support of several tribes has been lost, even though the Xiongnu escaped, their strength will definitely be greatly reduced, and they may not even be able to survive this winter. In the next ten years, I am afraid There is no trouble for the Huns. For my great achievements, Lord Jianyang must have a reward, why bother to quarrel over such a trivial matter?"

Hearing Wei Tao speak, the person who wanted to blame Zhang Liao didn't say anything after all.

"Furthermore, after this incident, everyone was promoted and made a fortune, and they will all contribute to Lord Jianyang in the future, so why make them so unfamiliar."

This time Wei Tao's performance was very eye-catching, and played a key role several times.

What's more important is that Wei Tao is different from Zhang Liao, Wei Tao is from Chen Liuwei's family, a powerful family, and he is valued by Lu Bu and even Ding Yuan.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, eunuchs, relatives and aristocratic families were the three pillars of the Han Dynasty.

Perhaps in the center of Luoyang, the aristocratic family, even the fourth generation and third father of the Yuan family, still has to retreat when facing eunuchs and relatives, but in terms of locality, it is controlled by the aristocratic family.

If it wasn't for his status as a disciple of an aristocratic family, could Wei Tao participate in Lu Bu's father recognition meeting so easily?

Even if they don't know the relationship, but as long as they can think of this, these sergeants will give Wei Tao some face.

Even the current Wei Tao is nothing more than a small boss, even the sergeants who are on the same level as him or even higher.

What's more, what Wei Tao said is true, promotion and fortune are just around the corner, and there is no need to go too far because of this matter.

As for Zhang Liao, he naturally knew that Wei Tao was doing it for himself, and he was also moved by it, so he stopped talking.

"Clean the battlefield and bury all the corpses."

Although tired, Gao Shun's order to clean up the battlefield was issued soon.

This time the Xiongnu apparently fled hastily, and many supplies were left behind, and there were countless cattle and sheep.

But this time it was different from the previous ones. Before chasing the Huns, many things had to be discarded directly. Everyone just got some gold and silver.

These gold and silver were obtained from the plunder of the Huns going south in previous years, and they were not much distributed to everyone.

But that was only because the more valuable things were taken away, but this time the Huns left very urgently, except for taking people away, basically nothing was taken away, and everything was left behind.

In addition, if all these sheep and horses are brought to the state, at least they can cover the tax of the state for half a year.

The spoils this time can be said to be very rich, but after all, it is a combination of all the property of several border tribes, and it is also owned by the state they have plundered over the years.

What's more, everyone knows one thing, so this time the reward must be very generous.

This point is that Wei Tao, who already knows the greedy nature of Lv Bu and Cao Xing and other generals, has to admit that it is the same for those who have meritorious service, whether it is Lv Bu, Wei Xu, Song Xian and others. Never stingy.

But even so, it was a rest, because the Huns had already been beaten and retreated, so this day was fine, and the Bingzhou Army recovered a lot.

However, unlike the Mercedes-Benz that travels hundreds of miles a day, it is much slower to return with a large amount of supplies, but with a large army escort, I am not afraid of any unscrupulous people who dare to come.

With this in mind, on the way back, all the Bingzhou sergeants went into battle lightly and relaxed a lot.

Although Gao Shun also has outstanding prestige and rich experience in warfare, he also understands that if he continues to suppress, it will easily cause dissatisfaction in the army.

So in addition to ordering people to patrol around the team, and dispatching everyone to investigate first, they were allowed to let them go without doing much to stop them.
