Chapter 96: The Massacre of the Southern Huns ([-]) Five days later, all the armies had arrived at the designated positions and made preparations. In order to prevent the news from leaking, all armies marched day and night, and pulled scouts ten miles away from the main army to investigate.
Fifty miles away from Meiji County, in order to prevent the Southern Huns from discovering the situation, Duan Zhao led 3000 troops from his headquarters to attack the enemy. Although there were only 5000 troops stationed in Xihe County, the maximum force Duan Zhao could deploy was only [-].
Shan Yuting.
As a Shanyu of the Southern Xiongnu, Qiangqu received information yesterday that Duan Jue, the governor of Xihe, led his troops to attack the Southern Xiongnu.
"Are you sure there are only 3000 people?"
Qiang Qu still didn't believe it. Although Duan Jiong was famous among the Hu people, the Southern Xiongnu had [-] warriors. If the old and young warriors were added, they could gather an army of [-]. What on earth could the Han people be so crazy about? How dare you bring only this few people to raise an army to question the crime? "Yes."
The spy lowered his head and replied.
"Hmph! How much the Han people look down on us! Chanyu, although Duan Jiong has a reputation for being fierce, I, the Huns warrior, will not be so cowardly!"
"Yes, for 3000 people, I, the Huns, have tens of thousands of armor, how can we be afraid of him!"
"Chanyu, at the end of the day, I will ask for a battle. At the end of the day, the general is willing to lead 3000 men and horses to capture Duan Jiao and present it in front of the royal court."
"."
The leaders and generals of the Southern Xiongnu tribes were all impassioned and wanted to mount their horses immediately and capture Duan Juan. Only Qiang Qu remained silent, not for anything else but because he was thinking about the meaning of Duan Juan's coming this time. After all, Duan Juan was not A person, his arrival represents the attitude of the King of the Han Dynasty, and this man's attitude is the key.
Qiangqu Shanyu had three sons, namely Yufuluo, Huchuquan, and Qubei. The eldest son Yufuluo was a reckless man, but his son Liu Bao was a smart boy. "Huchuquan, tell me, what should I do?" what to do?"
Relatively speaking, Qiang Qu admired his calm second son more. He Huchuquan thought for a moment and said, "Chanyu, I think Duan Jun's attack this time is also a test for us, just like the last time we massacred the village."
"Ah."
The Chanyu of Qiangqu nodded, and the massacre of the village was also Huchuquan's suggestion, which was to test the attitude of the King of Hejian towards the Southern Huns. This time Liu Han sent Duan Juan to lead 3000 people to crusade, which was also a test. Do the Southern Xiongnu dare to fight? If the Southern Xiongnu dare not fight, the Han people will further compress the territory of the Southern Xiongnu in the future. If the Southern Xiongnu dare to fight, it involves the second purpose, to see how powerful the Southern Xiongnu is.
"Fight, we must fight. Not only must we fight, but we must work together to annihilate the three thousand invading Han troops with an overwhelming advantage. Otherwise, if the Han troops find out about us, they will not just be the three thousand cavalry from Xihe County next time."
This was Qiangqu Shanyu's final decision.
Looking at the people under his command, Qiang Qu had no reason to be afraid, "King Guli on the left is Yu Fuluo, and kings on the right Guli are Huchuquan, Xubugen, and Huyanfu."
Qiang Qu called out the names of the two sons and dozens of tribal generals in the main tent, and all the people he called stood out one by one. "The Han art of war says: 'If you are ten, you are to surround it, if you are five, you are attacking, and if you are twice as many, you are dividing it.'" ', I ordered you to lead an army of [-], which is twenty times that of the enemy. There is only one request: to annihilate the invading enemy as quickly as possible!"
"Here!"×N Hu Chuquan: "Chanyu, what should I do with Duan Juan? Do you want to capture him alive?"
Yu Fuluo: "Why are you catching him alive? If you just kill him, it will be over!"
Qiang Qu thought for a while, "Wouldn't it be wonderful to capture him and send him to the King of Hejian?"
Everyone laughed when they heard this, "Here!"
# Thirty miles south of Meiji The weather in June made the warriors in armor feel hot even in the the vast battlefield, Duan Jiu had 3000 men and the Southern Huns had 6 men. The numbers of the two armies were not at the same level.
The cavalry of the two armies faced each other, and the battlefield was as majestic as a giant the sky, the scorching sun hung, shining on the earth. The light reflected the armor of the cavalry, shining with dazzling light.
The air was filled with tension, no one spoke, only the breathing of the war horses and the slight collision of the armor echoed in the silent air.
As time went by, the sun gradually climbed higher and illuminated the entire cavalry began to stir, knowing that the battle was about to begin.
"Young Southern Huns, does anyone dare to stand up and fight me?"
Duan Yan took the lead and started fighting in front of the was seen standing in front of the team wearing battle armor and holding a sun shines on his shining armor, like a star in the sky, shining with majestic light.
His eyes shot out a firm and cold light through the slits in his helmet, staring closely at the enemy in the distance, showing his general style. "I'll meet you!"
The battlefield was unreasonable and barbaric, which was exactly what Yu Fuluo longed for. Before anyone could say anything, he couldn't wait to ride out of the battle, holding a long spear, and headed towards Duan Jiong.
"Old man, I don't respect the old and love the young, drive!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
In front of the two armies, the distance of dozens of steps was reached in an instant.
"clang!"
"clang!"
"clang!"
Duan Jiong and Yu Fuluo fought for more than ten rounds in just one cup of tea. The spears in their hands were going back and forth, and they were evenly matched. When the battle was in full swing, Duan Jiong deflected Yu Fuluo's spear with one shot. , pretending to be defeated, fled back to the formation on horseback.
"The enemy force is strong, retreat!"
"Old thief go away!"
"Hugh let the old thief go!"
At this moment, Yu Fuluo only wanted to kill Duan Jiong, and he was out of touch with the army. Seeing this, Huchuquan waved his hand and shouted: "The whole army attacks, surround and kill Duan Jiong!"
The cavalry of 6 people immediately launched into action. For a time, there was a sound of horse hooves, the earth trembled, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
In this way, the [-] Han troops and the [-] Southern Xiongnu troops fled and pursued each other, covering a distance of fifty miles in one hour.
"stop!"
The Southern Xiongnu army marched to Guluo City and stopped marching under Huchuquan's order. Of course Huchuquan knew the terrain ahead. There were countless steep and gentle slopes, which were perfect places for ambush.
"Why did you call to stop?"
Yu Fuluo heard his younger brother behind him shouting to stop, so he clapped his horse and rushed back.
"Brother, the terrain here."
"Hmph, how could I not know, but even if there is an ambush, so what, Duan Hao can only hold 5000 people to death. Hu Chuquanyou said, there are 6 people behind us. Even if he has an ambush, can he survive? I think this is an excellent opportunity to annihilate the Han army in Xihe County. Since there is an ambush, I will rush out and take the head of the old thief Duan Jiao. "
Hu Chuquan thought about it carefully. The Han army could only hold out 5000 people. He now has an army of [-]. Even if it is dangerous, he is not afraid.
"Take your time. In this way, I will lead 5000 people to explore the way for the vanguard first, and you will lead the rest of the people to follow. If the delay continues, the old thief Duan Yan will really run away!"
Yu Fuluo's words were reasonable. In addition, he asked himself to be the vanguard. If Hu Chuquan disagreed, it would be unreasonable. "Brother, don't worry, I will lead the army to follow closely. Even if the old thief is so wise and almost a monster, he will not be able to do it." Faced with absolute strength, the Han people can only fail."
"drive!"
The two of them stopped talking. Yu Fuluo led 5000 people and stepped through the ruined city gate one by one.
