The Three Kingdoms

First of all, the Xiongnu army gathered most of the main force in the west and north to attack Cao Xing's two armies in Jiuyuan City. After defeating Jiuyuan, they withdrew to the southeast.

If the Huns choose to withdraw their troops at this time and then take a rest on the spot, they will take advantage of it.

But they were not greedy enough. Faced with Wu Jun's defeat, they didn't think about it at all. Without saying anything, they led the army to follow closely and sent troops to pursue Wu Jun.

What I didn't expect was that instead, I fell into an ambush that Zhao Yun had set up in the southeastern suburbs in advance.

Zhao Yun led the main forces of the two entire armies of the Blood Wolf Legion and had been waiting for a long time in the eastern and southern suburbs. Taking advantage of the unprepared state of the Huns' pursuit, they ambushed halfway, and the unprepared Huns retreated steadily.

In one night, tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops were beaten and defeated on this plain and hillside battlefield, and even the leaders of two of the big tribes were beheaded by Zhao Yun.

Several large tribal soldiers and horses of the Xiongnu royal court were killed by him, and their blood flowed into rivers.

This battle lasted from sunset in the evening until late at night, and then from late at night until dawn.

Zhao Yun fought this battle fiercely, causing at least [-] Huns to fall. All the casualties in the city before were recovered, and he had a lot of advantages, forcing the main force of the Huns in the city to shrink back.

"Order the troops to clean up the battlefield!"

Zhao Yun was riding on horseback, and when he heard Cao Xing's report, he lowered his head, glanced over, looked at the endless hell-like battlefield around him, and said in a deep voice: "After cleaning the evening battlefield, all the soldiers , with me standing on this hillside as the center, I set up camp in a triangular protective formation, and started to bury the pot for cooking. .20 Sixth Army and No.20 Ninth Army, I know you have suffered a lot of casualties now, but in a day or two at most, you have to recover a certain amount of combat power!"

At this time, it is already the beginning of the decisive battle, and any force is very important.

"Yes!"

Pang Tong, Cao Xing, Mu Ye, and Ye Da, the generals at the rank of chief general gritted their teeth and hurriedly bowed their heads in response.

Especially for Cao and Muye, the battle in Jiuyuan City had caused too many casualties for them, and it had almost hurt the vitality of their two armies.

But they knew very well in their hearts that the decisive battle in Jiuyuan had just begun, and it was impossible for them to retreat and take a good rest here, so they could only grit their teeth and hold on.

Because this battle is very important, even related to the safety of the entire northern Xinjiang in the future, if you can't bear it, you have to bear it.

"Commander, all the cavalry divisions we guarded around have been withdrawn, but the Huns cavalry are also pressing up from behind, and they are less than ten miles away from us. For the cavalry, they can charge at any time!"

Pang Tong raised his head, looked at it, and said in a deep voice.

"Press it up and press it up. Since I have taken back the cavalry, I am prepared!"

Zhao Yun jumped off the horse, threw the silver spear to the guards, and walked up the hill with his cloak fluttering around, squinting his eyes slightly, looking down at the distant Jiuyuan City: "If we retreat, they will surely We will advance, as long as we can stay stable, then we have to change our strategy and give up the opportunity to attack. All soldiers will start to use defense as offense, fully shrink the defense line around these four sides, build fortifications, and then circle around Jiuyuan City with the Xiongnu army !"

They fought the ambush last night very well, but at the same time it also angered Hu Chuquan's last patience.

Zhao Yun knew that when his forces were exhausted, it was time for Huchuquan to launch a siege.

Their next strategy is just one word, drag!

Procrastinate!

It's not that you can't lie to you by splicing their troops, but if you put them together, the whole army will be wiped out.

As long as they can drag the battle until Lu Bu's main force and Sun Ce's main force rush forward, and under the attack from both sides, come to a center to bloom, then the Huns will lose this battle.

They are considered to have completely achieved the goal strategy of this battle.

"Commander, Hu Chuquan has already heard the news here, I guess his main force will be all over soon!"

Pang Tong said worriedly: "Jiuyuan City is located in the north, we are in the southeast, and the main force of Huchuquan is in the west, but he can move to the south. At that time, he will form a north-south attack with the Xiongnu army in Jiuyuan. The terrain here is flat and suitable. The cavalry charges, and the space for movement is too small, I am afraid it will not be able to stop it for a few days!"

"North and South attack is certain!"

Zhao Yun smiled bitterly: "Our main force has completely exposed its traces in order to ambush this battle. As long as Hu Chuquan has an iǎniǎn military strategy, he will definitely seize this opportunity, and then use all the Huns' full strength to wipe us out. Now we The casualties were too great, and the strength of the entire four armies was actually less than 10,000 soldiers, so if you want to fight against their [-]+ main force, it is undoubtedly a bit of an egg hitting a stone!"

Under the offensive and defensive battle of Jiuyuan City, No.20 Sixth Army and No.20 Ninth Army suffered heavy casualties, almost half of them suffered casualties, resulting in too much weakening of their forces today.

The Blood Wolf Legion has 10,000+ main forces. Except for the No.20 Eighth Army, the other four armies are here, but after cleaning up iǎn, there are only [-] soldiers left in total.

So Zhao Yun was a little worried.

"Commander, what should we do next?"

Cao Xing's face changed slightly, he took a step forward and asked.

"Shi Yuan, can their main force make any moves now?" Zhao Yun asked after pondering for a while.

He had to figure out Hu Chuquan's reaction and was dealing with it.

"At present, they should still be in the west!"

Pang Tong said: "Hu Chuquan's character is a little too cautious, he will not rush to send troops at this time, at least he must confirm our tracks before sending troops with all his strength, that is to say, we still have a day or two Time to relax!"

"Two days is enough for us to breathe a sigh of relief!" Zhao Yun said.

"Report!"

A scout cavalry came flying from the west on horseback.

"Say!"

"Report to the commander!" The scout cavalry rolled over and cupped their hands to report: "On Chidao, thirty miles away from the western suburbs of Jiuyuan City, a large number of Huns marched. They came straight towards us from the south!"

"banner?"

"The Court of the Huns!"

"It seems that Hu Chuquan's personality has changed a lot!" Zhao Yun sneered.

"It should be that the Xiongnu army captured Jiuyuan City and gave him confidence and made him decisive. This is not good for us!"

Pang Tong thought for a while, and then said in a deep voice: "From this point of view, two days are gone, and we have at most one day to prepare, and the most bitter bloody battle will follow!"

"Ok!"

Zhao Yun nodded, with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "I don't know where Lu Bu's main movement is now, I'm afraid we won't be able to delay it for a few days, Jiuyuan City will be in the north, and the west will be surrounded and killed. We have nowhere to go!"

The development of the battle situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to Wu Jun.

He somewhat underestimated the combat capability of the Huns army.

Under the desperation of the Xiongnu army, the fighting power was very strong, which was beyond his expectation. If it was just the blood wolf army, maybe it might not be their opponent.

He hoped that Lu Bu's reinforcements would arrive in time, otherwise this battle might be a bit dangerous.

……

One day after the war in Jiuyuan City subsided, the bloody battle resumed.

Da da da! ! ! ! !
