Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 272 Big Han Hussars ([-])

When the Yuezhi people were fighting fiercely with the Huns, [-] Han cavalry troops were rushing westward dozens of miles away.

Zhou Guanfu personally led dozens of scout cavalry from the Han army, and Qiao Zhuang Yuezhi herdsmen were in charge of cleaning out the scouts of the Huns and Yuezhi people in front of the army. In order to ensure the whereabouts of the army, even the Yuezhi people would not let them go.

On the open grassland, dozens of Hun cavalry were wandering aimlessly.

This is a scout team of the Huns. As the overlord of the grassland, the Huns worship wolves very much. Even when the prairie wolves are eating together, they will never relax their vigilance. Usually, they will send a few wolves to be on guard. The Huns followed the habit of the prairie wolf and never forgot to send out scouts.

Suddenly, there was a faint sound of horseshoes on the grassland ahead.

Dozens of Xiongnu cavalry pricked up their ears in an instant, and when they looked up again, they saw two Yuezhi cavalry galloping towards the west. After passing the Huns, he turned his horse's head and galloped back towards the way he came. A dozen Hun cavalrymen suddenly screamed strangely and rushed after them.

For the Huns, the Yuezhi people were their prey, their military exploits.

After chasing for less than a moment, a dozen Hun cavalrymen managed to catch up with the Yuezhi people.

"Fire the arrows!" Accompanied by the shout of the leading Hun cavalry, dozens of Hun cavalry drew their bows and shot arrows on their horses at the same time, and the two Yuezhi men who were galloping in front of them fell off their horses.

Dozens of Xiongnu cavalry laughed and slowed down their horses one after another. When they were about to step forward to check the life and death of the two Yuezhi people, dozens of war horses suddenly turned up from the surrounding wormwood like ghosts, and straddled Those on horseback were no longer Yuezhi people in ragged furs, but big Han cavalrymen in bright red war robes.

"No, it's an ambush!"

"Damn it, disperse and break through!"

"Hurry up and report to Shan Yu, Han Chinese cavalry were found twenty miles to the east!"

At the order of the leading Hun cavalry, dozens of Hun cavalry turned their horses around one after another, trying to disperse and escape, but it was too late. The young general of the Han army who led them gave an order, and dozens of the cavalry of the Han army drew their bows at the same time. The dozens of Huns who were scattered and fled fell off their horses one after another. Only the leader of the Huns bent down to avoid the several arrows shot at him, and escaped from the encirclement with his horse.

The young general of the Han army lightly opened his hand, and the heavy carved bow has been drawn into the shape of a full moon. The next moment, the spiked arrow on the string has been shot out like lightning, and he is urging his horse tens of steps away. The Xiongnu cavalry who were leaving immediately fell off their horses, and the arrow of the young general of the Han army shot directly from the back of his head, and then pierced through the front door.

Dozens of cavalry Han troops took advantage of the situation to encircle and surround a dozen or so injured Huns.

The leading young general of the Han army was none other than Zhou Guanfu. Zhou Guanfu turned his head and waved. Two cavalrymen of the Han army who were proficient in the Hun language came up. Where is the Hun army in Modun now, and how many people have come?"

"Here!" The two Han riders responded abruptly, and took orders to go.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Lu Tai's army arrived, and Zhou Guanfu already knew everything he wanted to know.

Most of the Huns who were captured alive were good enough, and they would rather die than recruit them. However, there are also cowards who are afraid of death among the Huns. The two Han army scouts quickly found a coward from among the Huns. He cut a few Huns alive in front of him, and that Hun's will soon collapsed, and immediately poured beans into the bamboo tube and said everything.

I heard that Moutun brought a full 11 cavalry to Hexi, and enlisted [-] cavalry from the Xiutu tribe and [-] cavalry from the Hunxie tribe on the way. There are [-] cavalry, which is more than five times the cavalry of the Han army. Even if you add the Yuezhi people, your side is still at a disadvantage.

If Liu Bang led the army, or replaced veterans like Zhou Bo and Lu Ze, they would probably back down.

Lu Tai just frowned slightly, and then he drew his sword and shouted: "So what about 11 Huns cavalry? Why are you afraid of millions? In the eyes of this general, the Huns are just a bunch of chickens and dogs!" , Lu Tai drew the sword in his hand forward again, and shouted sharply, "Order the whole army, speed up, and send troops to Guzangyuan!"

"Here!" The messengers behind Lu Tai responded loudly, and rode their horses to send orders again.

Zhou Guanfu and Liu Bi also reined in their horses' heads one after another, yelling and urging the horses to move forward, especially in Zhou Guanfu's eyes, it seemed that there were still two blazes burning faintly. The fighting spirit was fully aroused. At this moment, Zhou Guanfu just wanted to swing his halberd into the Xiongnu army, killing him until the sky was dark and the ground was dark, with corpses strewn all over the field.

In Guzangyuan, the fierce battle is in full swing.

The fierce battle between the Yuezhi people and the Xiutu tribe and the Hunxie tribe has lasted for more than half an hour. Whether it is the Yuezhi people, the Xiutu people or the Hunxie people, they are all exhausted, and the arrows carried by both sides are basically exhausted. It's almost the same, but generally speaking, the Yuezhi people have clearly gained the upper hand.

This is completely understandable. The Yuezhi people are fighting for the survival of their own tribe, at all costs, while the Xiutu people and the Hunxie people are forced to join the war. Obviously leaning towards the Yuezhi people, but it is not easy for the Yuezhi people to completely defeat the Xiutu people and the Hunxie people.

What worries the Yuezhi people in particular is that the Maodun army hasn't moved yet!

In front of the Huns.

Uncle Gong said with a sinister smile, and immediately stepped forward and said to Mao Dun: "Da Shanyu, the heat is almost ready."

"En." Mao Dun nodded heavily, then pulled out his sword and raised it over the top, then drew it forward lightly, and shouted loudly, "Warriors of the Huns, it's time to show your bravery. Yu defeated the Yueshi, and then cut off the head of the Yueshi king and used it as a wine bottle for Ben Shanyu, hahahahaha..."

While speaking, Mao Dun had already urged his mount to move forward slowly.

In an instant, the Hun cavalry behind Maodun started to shout.

The next moment, rows of Xiongnu cavalry urged their mounts one after another, and followed Maodun to move forward slowly.

Looking down from the world, it looks like waves of waves slowly moving forward. With the gradual acceleration of war horses, the slight waves gradually turned into raging hurricane waves. In the trembling of the earth and the trembling of the sky, more than 6 Huns The cavalry rolled towards the chaotic battlefield ahead with overwhelming momentum.

Mao Dun took the lead and galloped at the forefront of the cavalry formation.

Turning around suddenly, I saw countless Hun warriors brandishing short swords, bone spears and horse forks, swearing to follow them to the death. The rows of moving horse heads, the fluttering bundles of horse mane, and those enough to make Qilian Mountain With the sound of swaying horseshoes, and the shadows of swords and spears that dimmed the sky and faded away, who could be the enemy of the great Xiongnu with such a powerful army? !
"Wow!" Mao Dun raised his head to the sky and screamed, and the Hun cavalry who followed behind suddenly split from the middle.

Mao Dun raised his left and right arms at the same time, and pointed lightly to the sides. The Hun cavalry who followed behind them turned their horses around one after another, and cut obliquely along the edge of the battlefield in front. The Xiongnu cavalry quickly wrapped the battlefield of Feifan Yingtian in a fan shape, and the Yuezhi people, Xiutu people, and Hunxie people were all wrapped in the center.

"Ahaha!" Mao Dun raised his right hand high and then clenched it into a fist and then dropped it suddenly. Tens of thousands of Hun cavalry drew their bows and released their arrows. The boundless rain of death arrows then fell on the heads of the Yuezhi people, Xiutu people, and Hunxie people who were fighting to the death.

On the battlefield in the center of the encirclement, the Yuezhi people, Xiutu people, and Hunxie people fell down one by one.

"Uh..." A Yueshi cavalry had just dismounted a Xiutu cavalryman with a horse fork, and was about to put on a fork to pierce the opponent's throat, when a feathered arrow suddenly fell from the air and shot through On his forehead, the Yuezhi cavalry immediately screamed incomparably horribly, and then fell off his horse after only two screams, dying of breath.

The Xiutu cavalryman who fell to the ground laughed and raised his dagger and was about to cut off the head of the Yueshi cavalryman when another feathered arrow fell from the air and pierced his back and neck at once. With strong inertia, it shot from the back of the Xiutu cavalry, and then pierced through the throat, and the Xiutu cavalry died without making a sound.

Not far from the side, two Hunxie cavalrymen felt that something was wrong. When they suddenly looked up, they saw a large number of arrows falling from the sky. They hid under the horse's belly with a wolf howl. , the mounts of the two had already been shot into hedgehogs by the dense arrow rain, and the horses were in pain and frightened, and they threw off their hooves uncontrollably and galloped away.

The two Hunxie cavalry were thrown off their horses, and immediately began to curse the Huns.

Dozens of steps away, King Xiutu waved his long sword vigorously, desperately blocking the rain of arrows that fell from the sky. Occasionally, feathered arrows pierced through the barrier and hit King Xiutu, but were also blocked by the iron armor on his body. However, the Xiutu cavalry who surrounded King Xiutu didn't have iron armor to protect them, and immediately fell into a pool of blood one by one.

"Damn it!" King Xiutu clenched his fists angrily while the rain of arrows stopped, and roared, "These damned Huns are even more ferocious than the wolves on the grassland. The wolves on the grassland are at least They don’t bite their friends, but the Huns don’t even let their allies go, it’s so disgusting!”

In the distance, King Yueshi's face was already pale.

The Xiongnu army joined the battle group at this time, and a round of arrow rain invaded indiscriminately first, but it really killed the Yuezhi people. After the Huns' arrow rain passed, the Yuezhi people's strength was less It has shrunk by more than half, and most of the rest are just wounded and remnant soldiers who are unable to fight anymore. This battle-the Yuezhi people are over!
