Hanhou

When Zhao Jia led his men to create chaos for the Huns, the defenders of the fortress launched a desperate charge and bit the Huns who entered the fortress to death.

Hu Qi, who had not climbed the brick wall, found that he was in chaos behind him, and he couldn't attack for a long time in front. He began to hesitate in his heart, not sure whether to continue to attack, or turn around and go back to support the headquarters.

At this moment, a cavalry of more than a thousand men came from the south, half of them were dressed in leather armor, and the half were only in short brown. .

Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, Zhao Jia decisively threw out the last poisonous chimney, and led his subordinates to retreat quickly.

The Huns were obscured by the smoke and couldn't control their horses. They collided with each other, and the chaos spread from the edge to the center.When the Han cavalry charged again, a few Hu cavalry fell off their horses in the chaos, and died under the hooves of their own horses for no apparent reason before fighting the Han army.

Zhao Jia's troops were too small, and he was not a soldier in the army. Facing thousands of Xiongnu, it was not easy to persevere until now.

After breaking away from most of the Huns, there were less than [-] Xiangyong who followed Zhao Jia to fight, not to mention border residents who had no armor and only a short brown suit.While galloping on horseback, Xiangyong shot empty arrow pots one after another, and was intercepted and surrounded by the Huns, unable to escape. He was seriously injured and fell off the horse in the fight, and was trampled into a pulp.

After the initial confusion, Xu Buyong found that there were not many Han cavalry, so he adopted his nephew's suggestion and sent out several cavalry, intending to divide and encircle the Han cavalry and slaughter them all.

This tactic does not seem to have much technical content, but it is quite effective when the force is superior.

It was precisely because Hu Qi went out and intercepted the disadvantaged Han cavalry that the casualties of Zhao Jia's troops increased sharply.If the support army hadn't arrived in time, Zhao Jia would have no doubt that the more than 200 people who followed him would have spilled blood on the grassland and buried their bones in the battlefield.

"Lang Jun, the Huns are coming again!"

More than a thousand Han troops rushed to kill, tearing a gap in the Huns' flank.Zhao Jia took the opportunity to gallop away, trying to get rid of Hu Qi who was pursuing him, and join Xiong Bo and Hu Bo's team.However, there was chaos on the battlefield, the sound of the whistle could not penetrate, and there was no trace of Hu Bo and Xiong Bo.The Huns chased too tightly again, and could not get rid of it from beginning to end.

Zhao Xin and Zhao Po Nu kept firing their bows, the two pots of arrows were shot empty, and the remaining pot of arrows would be exhausted.

Zhao Jia looked back sideways, and found that there was a distance from most of the Xiongnu, and there were only about [-] Hu Qi who were biting behind him, so he pulled the reins suddenly and let out a loud whistle.

"Kill it back!"

You can't get rid of it if you continue to run, it's better to turn around and fight back!

The purpose of going to the battlefield is to kill the enemy. The Xiongnu also carry a head on two shoulders. The number is not much different. Fighting face to face may not be impossible to win.

Hanging the ox horn bow on the horse's back, Zhao Jia drew out his long saber, and more than 20 Han riders turned their horses one after another, all with sharp blades in their hands.Zhao Xin and Zhao Ponu followed closely beside Zhao Jia, staring fiercely at Hu Qi, tightly clenched the long knife, and licked their dry lips.

Seeing that Han Qi was turning around, Hu Qi did not slow down, but brandished a Guduo dagger, flicked the reins desperately, and rushed up with strange screams.

The bay red horse kept snorting, Zhao Jia leaned forward slightly, and lightly kicked the horse's belly with his heels.

The war horse neighed, its speed changed from slow to fast, and then it spread its four hooves and charged forward.More than twenty Han cavalry were scattered around Zhao Jia, charging forward like a goshawk with its wings spread.

"kill!"

The distance of [-] meters is within seconds.

The two cavalry collided fiercely, the wailing of the horses was covered by the sound of the blades striking, blood spattered as the blades were swung.

The nose was filled with blood, Zhao Jia gave up thinking, and instinctively swung the long knife, killing all the enemies in front of him.Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he found that he had penetrated Hu Qi's team, turned around, and left several corpses in the center of the battlefield, both Hu Qi and Han Qi.

"kill!"

Without hesitation, and it was impossible to hesitate, Zhao Jia rode forward again.The long knife cuts a gap and embeds in the enemy's shoulder. If it can't be pulled out, it simply lets go, draws out the short knife and continues to fight.

The war horses staggered past, and several of them fell off their horses.

The injured arm became numb, and the blood flowing from the side stained the armor on his body.Without looking back, Zhao Jia knew that there were less than ten Han Qi behind him, and there were nearly twenty Hu Qi on the opposite side.

Han Qi was soaked in blood, the blood flowed from the blade, and the handle became slippery. He immediately tore off a hem of his clothes, wrapped the weapon around his hand, and prepared for the next charge.

Although Hu Qi is fierce, he is still human after all.No matter how strong the combat power is, when encountering an enemy who is risking his life, he will also hesitate, and even become timid.

They came to Han to loot, not to die.

They went south to live, not to be hacked to death by the Han army!

Han Qi fought to the death to defend the soil and protect their relatives, and he would not hesitate to lose his life; Hu Qi didn't want to die in vain, and his will was shaken.

One ebb and flow, the balance of victory began to tilt.

The narrow road meets the brave to win!

Bloodshot eyes appeared in Zhao Jia's eyes, and he didn't think about anything else. There was only one thought in his mind: rush forward and kill all the enemies in front of him!

"kill!"

Han Qi charged again, but what was unexpected was that Hu Qi had no intention of fighting and turned around and fled one after another.

The roles of prey and hunter changed at this moment, and the chaser changed from Hu Qi to Han Qi!

On the border of the Han Dynasty where wars are raging everywhere, eight bloody Han cavalry are chasing after more than a dozen Hu cavalry, like a group of fierce beasts locking their prey, and will not stop until they bite each other's throats!

During the chase, Zhao Jia unexpectedly joined Uncle Xiong's team, who was being hunted down by the Huns. There were less than [-] people left in the team of more than a hundred people, but there were more than two hundred enemies chasing them.

The situation was urgent, Zhao Jia immediately gave up the pursuit, joined Xiong Bo, and faced the chasing Hu Qi together.

During the fight, Hu Bo's troops also arrived miraculously, and the casualties were equally heavy. Those who survived were covered in bruises, as if they had rolled through a pool of blood, with endless killing intent in their eyes.

The Hundred Chiefs of the Xiongnu had experienced countless battles and small battles, and had several confrontations with the Han army. Zhao Jia's troops shocked him.

He was [-]% sure that the Han cavalry on the opposite side were not soldiers of the Han army, but most likely a team that was put together improvised.However, it is such a miscellaneous army that has the momentum no less than that of a soldier.The reason why he is so strong is clearly because he has the will to die, and the moment he stepped onto the battlefield, he didn't want to go back alive!

When fighting against such an opponent, one must fight with one's life if one does not want to be overwhelmed by the opponent's aura.But in this way, even if they can win, their own losses will definitely not be small.

Thinking of King Zuoguli's order, Baichang began to hesitate in his heart.

Is it fighting or retreating?

The key is whether it is worth it to work hard here.

Before Baichang could make up his mind, Zhao Jia had already made the choice on his behalf.

Uncle Xiong blew the horn, and Han Qi, regardless of life and death, charged again.

Several young and strong men lost their arms in the battle. They only clamped the horse's belly with their legs and held a knife in one hand. They followed Zhao Jia and the back of the leader who led them to fight, and rushed towards the enemy fiercely.

They are fearless in the face of death.Exhaust the last fire of life, but also burn these bandits from the north to ashes.

"go!"

Regardless of life and death, Han Qi just wanted to kill all Hu Qi.

Baichang waved Guduo and knocked a Han rider off his horse. After rushing away from the team of Han riders, he did not turn around and charge again, but led

More than 100 cavalry galloped in the direction of the headquarters.

Seizing the opportunity, Zhao Jia opened the ox horn bow, shot all the quiver empty, and took away the lives of three enemies.Then he pulled the reins, signaled the team to pause, and gave up continuing to pursue.

"Don't chase anymore." Zhao Jia put down the ox horn bow, looked at the Hun banner that was being torn in the wind, his pupils were as black as ink.He didn't want to stop, and didn't want to let go of the enemy in front of him, but his rationality smashed his emotions at this moment, and told him clearly that there was no benefit in acting recklessly, and he could only let the survivors die in vain.

However, it is not reconciled after all.

At this moment, the fire in the fort was extinguished, the smoke was blown away by the wind, and the sound of horns came one after another, obviously more reinforcements had arrived.

"Ao is still in the fortress." Zhao Puonu said.

Zhao Jia didn't speak, and tore strips of cloth from the hem of his clothes, and tied up the wounds on his side and left arm.Lead the people back to the battlefield, retrieve the lost weapons, and cut off the heads of the Huns.

"Go to the fortress!" Zhao Jia gritted his teeth, "Go around the elm forest."

"promise!"

Xu Buyong led more than [-] people to attack the fortress, but was unable to capture it for a long time. Instead, he was held back by the defenders and Zhao Jia, surrounded by reinforcements, and the situation took a turn for the worse.

At the same time, Yizhi sloped his army to attack Yunzhongcheng, and was intercepted in Hushi where the Qiang tribe was stationed.

The fortress made of cement and blue bricks was extremely strong, which caused a lot of trouble for the Huns cavalry. A fierce battle left more than a thousand corpses in front of the fortress.Reluctantly, Yi Zhixie led more than [-] cavalry, relying on their superiority in numbers, they forcibly ran over the fortress and approached Yunzhong.

As the enemy continued to approach, the drums of war in the barracks were rumbling.

Amidst the sound of drums, the infantry of the Han army lined up.

In the front are strong men eight or nine feet tall, holding large shields, and accompanied by the order of the team leader, they lined up and walked out of the gate of the camp.There is a forest of halberds behind the shield, and there is also a four-meter-long chieftain's spear, which requires two or three people to carry it together. The front end is sharp enough to penetrate a war horse.

The saber player hides behind the long halberd, biting the cork in his mouth, holding a saber that is as thick as a forearm as he holds the handle tightly.

The archers lined up behind the formation, sticking their arrows into the ground.The crossbowman lay on his back, with the strong crossbow resting on his legs, and at the same time stretched the strings of the crossbow.

Strong fighters are located on both sides of the battle formation, and each of them has several poisonous smoke pipes hanging from their waists, and is equipped with a trigger made by a craftsman, which can throw the poisonous smoke pipes farther.

As the sound of the drums changed, the strong men in the front row shouted and firmly planted their shields on the ground.

The sound of the horn broke through the sound of the drums, Wei Yue led the cavalry in the clouds to bypass the battle formation, the warriors and herdsmen of the Qiang tribe actively followed, and followed behind the cavalry of Han.

More than ten thousand Han troops lined up in front, with their halberds and spears on the ground, the back of their swords hitting their armguards, the banners were fierce, and the momentum was astonishing.

Yizhi climbed up a mound obliquely, looked at the Han army in formation, as if he saw an impassable city wall, and couldn't help being frightened.

"Your Majesty." Yi Zhixie did not give the order for a long time, and Zuo Guduhou had no choice but to remind him.

The sound hit her ears, and Yi Zhixie froze immediately, suppressing a trace of uncertainty in her heart, and ordered the warriors to blow their horns to charge the Han army.

In Yunzhong County, the flames of war raged, Yi Zhixie's army and the Han army head-to-head, and suffered heavy casualties in the first confrontation.Neither side had any intention of retreating, and the battle quickly fell into a stalemate.

Zuo Xianwang Yu Shan led his army to attack Yanmen County. He thought that it would be the same as last time. He attacked all the way to the county town, burned, killed and looted wantonly, and returned north to the grassland with the spoils.

The idea was good, but the reality gave him a blow to the head.

Zhidu, the new prefect of Yanmen, made a strategy for the grassland at the beginning of his tenure, which can be summed up in one word: kill!

The two powers are fighting each other, everything depends on strength, and the rest can only be used as embellishment.

From Zhidu's point of view, benevolent education can only lead to more greed due to the nature of jackals and wolves in the prairie. Only by raising the butcher's knife and killing them until they are convinced can they kneel down and dare not make a sound bark.

In view of the fact that the population of Yanmen County is still recovering and the conditions are limited, Zhidu has formulated a strategy that is completely different from that of Wei Shang.He did not stop the enemy outside the county, but moved all the people near the border, emptied the village, and made a look of being powerless to meet the enemy and shrinking the defense.Secretly gathered heavy troops in Woyang County, and the prisoner proposed death penalty, issued leather armor weapons, and ordered him to guard the barn.

"If you die in battle, you will be exonerated. If you have meritorious service, your family will get the land."

From the very beginning, Zhidu clearly told these prisoners that the barn was the bait, and they were going to die.Except for two or three people, these desperadoes had no complaints at all, and a few murderous men who gathered together as thieves even grinned and said: "If we commit a serious crime, we should be beheaded. If the Lord allows us to kill the enemy and atone for our sins, can we still be killed?" In terms of merit, if we risk our lives, we will definitely live up to the envoy!"

Zhi didn't say much, and ordered the slaughter of cattle and sheep to feed everyone.

The prisoners had enough food and drink, put on leather armor, put on their weapons, put away their fire igniters, and were sent to Woyang County on the same day.

Zhidu boarded the top of the city and watched the team go away.

As early as when the Xiongnu went south, he sent news to Liu Rong. The latter sent a cavalry boy to send Yunmei to the county, but he stayed in Woyang County.

"Rong invites you to guard the frontier, defend the land and defend the people, and fight against the enemy."

Just a dozen or so words, falling on the wooden tablet, the muscles and bones are strong, as if there is a thousand-weight force.

The wind became colder and colder, and the departing team turned into black spots, and their backs could no longer be seen.

The strong wind blew up the banner on the top of the city, rustling.

Zhidu cleans up his clothes and bows to Woyang.Then he turned around and stepped down the city wall, never looking back.
