Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 94 The Huns are defeated

In a camp in the south of the central prairie, a Hun hurried into the tent and said, "Report to the governor and Marquis Gudu who suddenly defected, and our army's food and grass have fallen into the hands of the Donghu people."

"Rebel? How could the children of the Lan family rebel."The governor of the Xiongnu was shocked suddenly, his tone full of disbelief.

The Huns quickly raised their heads and looked at the governor: "The Marquis of the Gudu is under the command, and more than [-] soldiers and horses have been killed."

"Lan Zhengqing...".The eyes of the governor of the Xiongnu almost burst into flames. There were [-] soldiers and horses from the Donghu in front of them, and Hou Lanzhengqing, the capital of the bones, defected behind.Attacking back and forth, he suddenly fell into a crisis.

All the generals were furious, and challenged the governor of the Xiongnu one after another: "The governor's current plan is to defeat Lan Zhengqing, a villain, and take back the food and grass.

"As a descendant of the Lan family of our clan, he turned his back on the frontlines, and the general can't wait to crush him to ashes."

"At this time, recapturing food and grass is the top priority. As for the Donghu army ahead, we should avoid their edge first to avoid being flanked by the enemy on both sides."

Listening to the remarks of the generals, the Xiongnu governor seemed to think of something, and subconsciously asked: "Why did Lan Zhengqing defect?".

"The offshoot of the Lan family has always been rejected by us, so it makes sense to turn against them at this time."The general of the Huns explained to the governor.

The governor of the Xiongnu shook his head slightly: "Based on what the governor knows about him, if it's just these things, he shouldn't turn against him."

"Lan Zhengqing's family members are all in the large tribes in the west. Perhaps those family members were captured by the enemy and turned against each other when they were desperate."The Hun general continued to explain.

enemy?The governor of the Xiongnu was suddenly surprised: "Not good, send an order to assemble the whole army. Immediately send troops to Lan Zhengqing's troops, and try to defeat the Donghu army ahead before they can react."

"The governor here?..."The generals hesitated, not understanding the meaning.

The governor of the Xiongnu was in a hurry: "There must be an Donghu army behind Lan Zhengqing's troops. At this time, our troops may fall into the calculations of the general of the Donghu. You must quickly gather troops and horses, and only the Donghu army in front , before the reaction. Destroying Lan Zhengqing's troops in one fell swoop, our army can turn defeat into victory."

"Follow orders".A group of generals filed out, and after a while, a long horn sounded.The governor of the Xiongnu took the lead and led the army to roar to the rear.

In the night, the two armies collided fiercely, and the sound of swords and soldiers rang out all at once.The governor of the Xiongnu looked at Lan Zhengqing with red eyes, raised the bronze sword in his hand and went to kill Lan Zhengqing: "This governor thinks that there is nothing wrong with you, Lan Zhengqing. Why do you want to do that?" Join the enemy in battle".

"You know in your heart whether this statement is true or not. If it wasn't for being excluded by others, why would I be kicked here from the royal court?"Lan Zhengqing seemed to want to vent the anger of being excluded all these years, exhausted all the strength in his body, raised the sword in his hand and stabbed at him.Immediately afterwards, the two swords collided fiercely.

The two let go at the same time, and the horse took a few steps back.Seeing this, the soldiers of both sides rushed forward to guard their respective generals behind them.The governor of the Xiongnu looked at Lan Zhengqing and the soldiers standing in front of him: "If you can wake up now, the governor of the Xiongnu can let the past go, otherwise our army will crush all of you into powder."

"I'm afraid the governor will be disappointed."Lan Zhengqing didn't know that this was an expedient measure for the governor of the Xiongnu, so he directly refused.

A sneer flickered on the corner of the Xiongnu's mouth, and he looked around: "Whoever can take the head of Lan Zhengqing for this governor, I will give him a credit. At the same time, I will reward a thousand sheep and a thousand horses."

"The head of Lan Zhengqing must be taken for the governor."The eyes of the Xiongnu soldiers were red, as if Lan Zhengqing in front of him was not alone, but a herd of sheep and horses.

Before the words fell, the Xiongnu soldiers went directly to kill Lan Zhengqing.All of a sudden, the sound of swords and soldiers rang out.When the two sides were fighting, a cavalry galloped quickly behind Lan Zhengqing's troops.

Seeing Zhou Yafu riding a war horse, he quickly reported: "General, Lan Zhengqing's troops are gradually running out, will our army support?"

"Wait……".Zhou Yafu was unmoved and calculated silently. After a while, he looked at the soldiers beside him: "Send a message."

"promise".The soldier beckoned, and an eagle flew in the sky.Then he carefully took out a piece of silk from his clothes and tied it to the eagle's leg.With a slight lift of the hand, the eagle flew into the air.

The eagle galloped through the air and flew into a camp.When a soldier saw the eagle landing, he hurried over to untie the silk scroll, and then ran into a tent: "General, military adviser, letter from the major general."

Zhou Bo took over the silk book, looked at it carefully, and then showed a gleam of joy, and handed the silk book to Chen Ping: "Lan Zhengqing, the bone capital of the Xiongnu, led [-] Hun cavalry to surrender. Zhou Yafu's troops took him as the vanguard and raided the Hun governor. department".

"Brother Zhou, it seems that my department is also on the move."After Chen Ping finished reading, his eyes turned to Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo nodded slightly, and just about to give an order, he thought of something: "There are still [-] soldiers and horses in front of the Huns, and we have to go to wipe out the Huns. I will give you [-] soldiers to defend here. Keep this place safe."

"Brother Zhou, don't worry, the Huns are just a bird in a cage, and there will be no waves."Chen Ping assured Zhou Bo.

Zhou Bo made up his mind, and then walked outside the tent.Drums rang through the sky, and an army galloped to the rear.

At the place where the two armies were fighting, Lan Zhengqing looked at his own soldiers who were about to be defeated, and felt a trace of despair in his heart.It seems that the chief general of Seoul really wanted to make himself cannon fodder.Otherwise, why at this time, have not sent troops to support.That's all, as long as the family can be preserved, what else is there to expect.

Just when he thought this was the place of death, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes from the front and back, and two Donghu troops with Zhou character banners came from the front and back.The troops of the Xiongnu Metropolitan Governor were defeated in an instant.

Looking at the battlefield full of corpses after one night, Zhou Yafu remained silent.At this time, the sound of horseshoes came, and Zhou Bo came slowly with several cavalrymen on horseback: "Father, our army has cleaned up the battlefield. Do you want to return to the army immediately and attack the Huns' Da Danghu?"

"I don't know what kind of expression the general will have when he learns that our department has taken down two large tribes in one fell swoop."Zhou Bo didn't answer immediately, but asked instead.

Zhou Yafu was dumb, and when he was about to speak, he heard footsteps.

Lan Zhengqing came galloping with several Xiongnu generals slapping their horses: "See the two generals, I don't know whether to gather the army immediately at this time."

"Rally now".Lan Zhengqing's inquiry interrupted the conversation between the two, and Zhou Bo gave the order immediately.

Lan Zhengqing saluted on horseback, then turned around and galloped forward.After a while, the drums sounded, and soldiers began to gather.

Zhou Bo watched the phalanx behind him assemble, then he slapped his horse hard and galloped away in the direction the troops came and went.
