Chapter 269 The Eve of the Battle!
Du Changjing now knows that the infantry stationed in the Great Wall of Jin northern had replaced the cavalry, because when the scouts investigated, they said that 30,000 Xiongnu infantry were stationed in the Great Wall. Now it seems that the Huns used the war horses of the Jin army to turn 30,000 infantry into 30,000 cavalry.
After knowing that the Huns were cavalry, Ma Dadan and Zhao Hua also understood the reason why the Huns were powerful.
They have this ability, and the Huns have never lost before when the cavalry fights.
"The scout didn't report such an important matter, so where is the scout's captain?" Du Changjing shouted expressionlessly!
"The last one will be here!"
A cavalry captain in his thirties walked out of the array and came to Du Changjing. The cavalry captain was Zhang Tong, the captain of the scout camp.
Zhang Tong jumped off the war horse with a pale face, and knelt on one knee in fear and fear, "I will atone for my sins, please forgive me!"
"Come on, drag it down and kill it!" Du Changjing waved his hand coldly, his tone was cold and emotionless.
When he sent scouts to inquire about the news about the Huns, he didn't know how many scouts were found or were directly arrested. At that time, he endured it and did not surrender it, but now he has not even reported such important information, so he can't bear it anymore!
If he had known that the Huns had changed their troops, he would not have led his troops to rush over. Now, because of a mistake in the scout camp, he pushed 70,000 cavalry into the fire pit. He was really not afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs.
After the words came, the two cavalrymen jumped off their horses and walked towards Zhang Tong. Zhang Tong was so scared that he trembled all over. He quickly bent down his other knees, knelt on both knees and begged for mercy and shouted: "General, please spare your life!"
Facing Zhang Tong's begging for mercy, Du Changjing's expression was not stirring, and Zhao Hua and Ma Dadan did not plead with each other, obviously also knew the importance of this.
If he can neglect this today, he can lie about military affairs tomorrow!
"puff!"
Blood sputtered out, and a head rolled on the green grass, and the scout camp lieutenant was killed.
The soldiers and generals who witnessed this scene with their own eyes fully felt what military law was. The scout who reported the news was so scared that he swallowed his spits. He did not expect that the boss of his camp would die like this.
After Zhang Tong was beheaded, Zhao Hua couldn't help asking: "General, what should we do now?"
There are only two ways in front of the Qin army now. The first is to withdraw the army and the second is to fight to the death, and fight to the Huns' cavalry head-on!
If you choose the former, the morale of the army will inevitably decline, and there will be no such good opportunity again. If you can annihilate the Huns in one fell swoop, Du Changjing's plan will be completely broken. If you choose the latter, even if the Qin army wins, the casualties will definitely be severe. By then, you will be unable to block the main retreat of the Huns.
Du Changjing frowned and felt a little annoyed, but he did not reveal that the transformation of the Huns' troops really broke his beautiful plan. If he had known this, he would have mobilized half of the troops in Wujin Pass before attacking the Huns at night to block the Great Wall. Otherwise, after fighting with the Huns' cavalry, he would have no power to stop the Huns' main force.
I am really not afraid of opponents like gods, but I am afraid of teammates like pigs. No one reports on such important matters, and Changjing was helpless.
"If you retreat, how can you seize the Bailan Grassland? How can Your Majesty explain to you all the ministers?" Du Changjing murmured to himself expressionlessly, his eyes becoming more and more firm.
Ying Chang spent his time convincing the court officials to support his actions. If he retreated without fighting, he would be able to explain to Ying Chang, but how could Ying Chang explain to the ministers? When he has ideas, can Ying Chang still convince the ministers to support him?
The mistakes of the scout camp are mentioned in the Great Wall camp, which is Zhang Tong's responsibility. In the court, it is the responsibility of him who is the Changjing. Responsibility is the crime, and making up for the merits and demerits is the kingly way!
"Send the order and line up to meet the enemy!" Du Changjing shouted loudly with a firm look!
"Let the enemy line!"
"Let the enemy line!"
Zhao Hua and Ma Dadan and many other commanders immediately sent orders. After the order was conveyed, the army quickly changed. After about half a stick of incense, 70,000 cavalry formed an arrow-shaped formation, which was the standard offensive formation.
"call!"
"call!"
There were bursts of heavy breathing sounds coming from the army, and almost every soldier was sweating nervously and spitting at times. Under this circumstance, the atmosphere of the army became more and more tense, and Zhao Hua and Ma Dabang became nervous.
Du Changjing's expression was not shiny at all, his face was as quiet as water, and his sharp eyes were looking into the distance, exuding a chilling murderous intent.
In this battle, you must do your best to win and win at the least cost!
Time passes slowly, three minutes from Shenshi!
When the sun sets in the west, the clouds turn red, making the earth covered with a layer of red clothes. If you see this scene, you will be amazed. However, when the 70,000 Qin soldiers saw this beautiful scene, they felt depressed, as if the red clouds were gathered in blood.
Rumble...
In vain, a faint sound of thousands of horses galloping came from the front. A trace of haze flashed through Du Changjing's eyes. He subconsciously took a deep breath and raised his spirits. Any soldier who heard the sound of thousands of horses galloping could not help but hold the spear in his hand tightly, staring at the front without blinking, making it difficult to breathe.
Huns! Here comes!
After a while, the soldiers in the front row of Qin army saw a group of Xiongnu cavalry coming on horseback!
They are tall and strong, with a large and round head, wide face, wide nose, high cheekbones, thick beard, and only a small thigh of hard beard under their jaws. They wear earrings with long earlobes, leather hats on their heads, thick eyebrows and almond eyes, and bright eyes.
He was wearing a loose robe with long legs and split on both sides. He had a belt tied around his waist. Both ends of the belt were hanging in front. Due to the cold, the sleeves were tightened at the wrists, a short fur surrounded his shoulders, and long leather boots were worn. He held a sharp scimitar in his hand and looked at Qin Jun like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
The Huns looked arrogant and looked like they looked like high-ranking people, and there was nothing else in their eyes except disdain.
"stop!"
When the 27,000 Huns' cavalry were five hundred steps away from the Qin army formation, Lin Lingui raised his scimitar and shouted loudly, and stopped the war horses at the same time. The other Huns also quickly tied the war horses and forced the war horses to stop.
Lin Lin Gui looked at the Qin army formation that was waiting for us in a high position, and couldn't help but raise an arc on the corner of his mouth, and said with a sarcastic smile: "I said why haven't I seen the Qin army for a long time? It turns out that the Qin army is waiting for us here. I really have the courage to fight against my grassland warriors and cavalry!"
"Little leader, we are running for fifteen miles in a row. Do you want to take a break?" A powerful Wanhu captain Nok Si came over and asked.
Nock Si is one of the top ten warriors in the Linlin Division!
