Faint shouts of killing came like a tide, the fire was shining, and grenades were dropped from time to time in the fire.
"Boom! Boom!" In the light of the fire, I saw the nervous and skillful cavalry, throwing down the grenade.
Strictly speaking, the power of the grenade is not great, but after it exploded, flesh and blood limbs flew out and fell, and the huge sound and fireworks everywhere immediately caused the surging crowd to make a tragic noise. The first time they encountered a Han night attack, another huge thunder made them panic.
The crackling fireworks swirled and burned, mixing with sweat and the smell of burned corpses, filling the battlefield.
"Kill!" The generals could be seen looming around, encouraging and commanding, leading the killing.
"Boom, boom, boom!" From time to time, handguns and mines exploded, smoke filled the fence, and the camp was a mess, and chaos broke out.
On the city wall, Fan Liuhai was dumbfounded. He looked at it with a telescope and murmured: "I really asked him to do it. He defeated one hundred thousand enemy troops. He is a blessed general!"
Of course Fan Liuhai knew what Wu Xingzong was thinking.
Seeing that the world is peaceful and only the barbarians are left to kill, if we don't take advantage of the last opportunity to fight, everything will be settled, and it will be hard to find opportunities again.
This is an opportunity to make a contribution!
Fan Liuhai was also willing to give him this opportunity, but as Hu Ying was expected to be on guard, Wu Xingzong could at best take the opportunity to harass him and kill a few hundred people, which would be considered a victory.
Not wanting to break through the camp all the way, they first broke through the defense line, and then swept into the entire camp. The Hu soldiers reacted very slowly and chaotically, and they seemed to be completely disorganized. While the army was attacking, they set fire and spread rumors, and the Hu camp suddenly became a mess.
After being stunned, Fan Liuhai loudly ordered: "Come here, hurry up, raise your troops immediately, and attack together!"
This is a rare opportunity, Fan Liuhai immediately issued an order.
After a wave of troops rushed forward, the night was completely chaotic, and there were sounds of killing everywhere.
An hour later, Hu Camp was in a mess.
"The whereabouts of the Hu Khan are unknown. Did General Wu lead people to pursue them?" There were flames dancing in the dilapidated camp, and wisps of black smoke swayed gently in the wind.
Fan Liuhai, wearing bright armor, inspected the ruins of the camp and asked the person in front of him with a serious face.
One of the generals left by Wu Xingzong to tell the story hurriedly replied: "General, that's exactly what happened! General Wu has personally led his troops to pursue the Khan. Because someone needs to report this to the general, I was sent here to wait for the general!"
After hearing this, Fan Liuhai nodded and looked around again, feeling quite emotional.
When the army arrived, the Hu people were in chaos. Seeing the army coming from the city, the Hu people scattered and fled. Fan Liuhai had to sigh with emotion. The Hu people who used to be quite capable of cavalry were so vulnerable.
"I can't believe that the Hu people were defeated like this" Zhang Yu and Li Ting, you two will lead the people to clean up the battlefield. Xu Youliang, you will lead the people to take care of the prisoners and register them. I have some use for this prisoner. I will use it to them We must strictly monitor them, and we must not let high-ranking barbarians get away with it. "Fan Liuhai ordered.
This attack killed no more than 10,000 people and took only 16,000 prisoners. There should have been at least 90,000 people, so the losses would have been at least 60,000, but they fled in all directions.
Three people immediately came out from behind to lead them, and they all handed over their hands.
"The general understands!" The three people who received the order responded. They had no objection to the general's order.
The emperor's decree intends to establish the Eight Banners system for the Hu people, and recruit the Hu people to use the Hu people to control the Hu people.
Later, when they were in Bingzhou City, the general had already ordered that any Hu captives who were willing to submit would be incorporated into the Eight Banners without killing them.
These 16,000 prisoners laid down their weapons and surrendered. If they were incorporated into the Eight Banners, they would be the Second and Third Banners. Although they were very prejudiced against the Hu people, they still obeyed the general's orders.
Fan Liuhai looked at the general in front of him who was reporting everything to him, and ordered: "Zhang Jing, since General Wu ordered you to stay, you must cooperate with the three of them here without making any mistakes!"
"The general will understand!" This general will respond immediately.
After Fan Liuhai briefly explained a few words, he immediately led the army in person and pursued the Hu people in the direction of their defeat.
"Dahan, please drink some water!" This place is a hundred miles away from Guancheng. It is located in a remote place, not close to the official road. There are many woods nearby. Even if you pass by here during the day, it will be scary. , few people come here.
And Hu Jun, who had been running wildly to protect the Khan for an unknown length of time, had to rest in this remote place.
Dahan, who was being protected, had just woken up and his face was flushed. Compared with his pale face, his face at this time was even more worrying.
Qianhu Saiba hurriedly handed over the water bag in his hand.
At this time, the Great Khan was not wearing armor, because he was carried on horseback by his loyal subordinate Seba in a semi-conscious state, and escaped on the same horse. He is still weak and wearing a loose robe with hair flowing. , very embarrassed.
Due to the effect of the medicine, Dahan woke up once on the way to escape after the defeat, but when he learned that the camp was broken, he immediately vomited a mouthful of blood.
At this time, I woke up again and struggled to speak. I lay half on the blanket and barely drank two sips from the water bag handed to me by Seba. I shook my head and stopped drinking.
He asked in a low voice: "Sai Si, how many more people do we have?"
"Great Khan, there are still 20,000 more!"
The camp collapsed, and the 90,000-strong army immediately fell apart, leaving only 20,000 people following.
"Twenty thousand!" Dahan gasped fiercely, unable to breathe for a while.
The atmosphere was depressing for a while, even Seba didn't know what to say to comfort the Khan.
Such an embarrassing escape is really ugly.
After the Khan fell asleep, the embarrassed general sat around in silence, discussing.
Temporarily resting here, the surrounding soldiers hurriedly ate the dry food they had brought with them, drank water, and fed their horses. It might not take long before they would continue on their way, so they all tried their best to take the time to rest.
You can¡¯t stay here for long. It¡¯s better to return to the sphere of influence and make plans again.
"My lords, what should we do next? Is there any chance to save the situation?" Saiba, as the most prestigious person in Qianhu, who has no identity, took the lead in breaking the deadlock and asked.
"Lord Saiba, you have seen the current situation. It is the blessing of the immortal god to protect the Great Khan from returning to the grassland safely. Is there still a chance to repel the Han people?"
The person who took over Saiba's words was also a Qianhu, a little older than Saiba, because he had not always been the most respected by the Khan, and he did not have the same prestige as Saiba. But he was also Qianhu, and what he said made everyone fall silent.
"You are right. The most important thing for us now is to escort the Great Khan back to the grassland safely. If the Great Khan" Saiba glanced at the crowd, a trace of disappointment appeared in his eyes, and he gave up the idea of ??counterattack. , was silent for a while, then sighed.
These people are all direct descendants of the Great Khan, but in fact their backgrounds are small. If they fail to protect the Great Khan, not only will they die, but their family members will also not be able to escape the fate of being used as slaves.
"Report!" While there was silence, a fast horse suddenly galloped from a distance.
"It's the sentry sent out just now. Could it be that some pursuers have arrived?" Seeing the man's clothes and speed, Seba stood up suddenly.
When the generals saw this, they stood up slightly and put their hands on the handles of their sabers.
"What happened?" The Khan was asleep. Naturally, these generals were responsible for many matters, and Seba, as the representative, was the one who asked, and this soldier was also the soldier he sent out to patrol.
"Report to Thousand Households! A Han army was found in the south, marching towards here at a fast pace. They are all cavalry. It is estimated that there are more than 7,000 people!" The soldier jumped off his horse, knelt down in front of a few people and reported quickly.
"Seven thousand people" Seba was silent for a moment and asked the generals around him: "They are fewer than us"
?It means asking if the whereabouts are discovered and whether to fight.
In the past, these Hu generals were not afraid of not only 7,000 Han troops, but also 70,000, but now, all the generals looked at each other with hesitation.
"Lord Saiba, I am not afraid of another confrontation with the Han people, but my fate"
"Yes, Master Saiba, the Han people can fight later, but Dahan's body can't hold on anymore. If something happens again, we won't be able to repay it even if we have a few lives!"
¡°Lord Seba, it¡¯s better to withdraw!¡±
Seba¡¯s not-so-handsome face was twisted, his eyes were deeply disappointed, but he had to say: "Come on, pull it up immediately!"
Twenty thousand people left in a hurry and continued to flee.
"Retreating without a fight directly caused the morale of the Hu people to become even lower.
The sweaty body was in good and bad moods. When fleeing, he would sometimes wake up and sometimes fall asleep again, which made Seba feel very bad.
? ?Ba knew that when the Great Khan woke up halfway, he heard that he had given up a counterattack opportunity and was very dissatisfied with himself.
But in this team, there are ten thousand households and ten thousand households. Most of these people have the intention to retreat. If the Khan can still take charge, he can suppress these people and give the Han people a counterattack at the right time. But It was obvious that Dahan's body couldn't hold on any longer. Even for Dahan's sake, he had to rush back to the tribe as soon as possible.
"General, I just received the military report from General Wu. I caught up with him, killed 1,500 enemies, and captured 500 Hu people!"
Fan Liuhai was leading an army to pursue the defeated Hu people, and Wu Xingzong sent his soldiers back to report the news.
"Five hundred prisoners?" Fan Liuhai was very happy to hear this.
The 16,000 Hu people captured in the front were taken back and handled properly. It was just right for them to be incorporated into the Third Banner.
And there are prisoners along the road, which shows that the Hu people have collapsed.
Fan Liuhai immediately ordered a captain: "Go and take care of these Hu captives. If any of them are unwilling to surrender, immediately kill them on the spot."
The captain responded immediately.
Fan Liuhai glanced at the three thousand troops behind him and ordered: "Chase, catch up, and catch the Khan!"
"No!" the general behind shouted loudly, this is a great achievement. (To be continued
