Zhubei (7)
However, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. If you are not careful, you will fall into a trap and fall into a situation of no return. Xiang Yu quickly asked Xiang Fei to send a scout team of thousands of people to investigate the situation of the Huns in detail. If anyone can find out the whereabouts of Han Xin's army, he will immediately get a reward and title. In this way, the scouts were very excited. Their military merits were not as good as those of the soldiers who charged forward, so there were not many opportunities to be promoted. This was different this time. His Majesty the Emperor spoke in a golden manner and could find accurate information, he could get a major reward and title. This was probably the only opportunity for the scouts to be promoted.
Within half a day, information arrived. It was said that the Huns were in the east, and the two battalions in the west had already withdrawn and retreated to the north. The Nan camp was also ready to move, almost everyone was in charge and was about to withdraw and leave. However, no news about the Shanyu royal court came. After all, it was the Huns' nest, and the guards were so strict that they did not dare to go there to die no matter what.
Xiang Fei and others all knelt down and said, "The fighter will die a moment, I hope Your Majesty will be a sage."
Xiang Yu thought for a moment, thinking that even if the enemy was cheating, he was not afraid. Now the two battalions retreated and just happened to besiege the southern camp. If the enemy returned to the rescue, Han Xin's army had not arrived. If the two battalions of Huns went north and refused to rescue, then Han Xin's army successfully attacked, and was afraid that they were chasing the old Shang Shanyu.
"All the generals obeyed the orders," Xiang Yu stood up and shouted loudly, "Start the troops and horses quickly and surround the Xiongnu's southern camp. If the enemy has already set off the camp, fight quickly and do not let them return north."
"The last general and others obey the order." Everyone said in unison again.
The Chu army rushed forward with 30,000 elite cavalry and rushed towards the southern camp of the Xiongnu. It was just as they saw that the Xiongnu had left the north gate of the camp and drove north. It was Xiang Yu himself who led the cavalry. Seeing that the Xiongnu wanted to leave, he waved his halberd and commanded the entire army to advance quickly, and finally caught up with the tail of the Xiongnu army. Seeing that the Chu people came, the Huns had to turn around to fight, but the front troops still headed north and did not look back.
Xiang Yu went on the battlefield to kill the enemy. The Chu soldiers were full of fighting spirit. The thousand people who stayed to deal with the Chu army were soon eaten by the windstorm of the Chu army. Seeing the soldiers fighting for the enemy's heads, Xiang Yu hurriedly shouted: "No need to fight for the heads. In today's battle, everyone will remember a great achievement. Everyone will receive a reward of a lot of money. Be sure to catch up with the thieves and kill them clean."
When the Chu soldiers heard the emperor's order, they were excited again. They wished that the war horses they had stepped on had four legs so that they could rush up to chase the Huns in front. However, the infantry behind the cavalry looked depressed. Their legs could not escape the four legs of the war horse. This great contribution today would probably be difficult to enjoy.
It was difficult for the Huns to move quickly with their baggage, and they were soon chased by the crazy soldiers of the Chu army. As a last resort, the Huns left more than 3,000 people to block the Chu army. Seeing this, Xiang Yu hurriedly ordered: "Leave ten thousand soldiers and horses to surround the enemy, and the rest of the horses followed me to kill them."
The Chu army was well-trained, and immediately led 10,000 cavalry by two deputy generals to surround the three thousand Huns, while the rest followed Xiang Yu and continued to pursue them.
As he was about to catch up with the Huns, Xiang Yu ordered each person to take out his bow and shoot the Huns with arrows. Originally, the hit rate was not very high when shooting arrows on the horse's back, but under the current circumstances, as long as the arrows were shot at the group of Huns, some people would definitely be caught and fell off the horse, and there was no need to worry about wasting arrows.
The Chu army was as arrows as rain, and people in the Huns brigade were frequently caught and fell down, but the Chu army did not slow down and rushed over quickly. When they approached the Huns, everyone inserted their bows, took out their spears and swords, rushed into the Huns, and killed them for a while. The Huns had no choice but to turn around and respond. The two sides quickly strangled together, flying flesh and blood, screaming in succession.
Xiang Yu, who was used to such cruel scenes, had a poem about "A general succeeded in thousands of bones" in his heart. He couldn't help but feel sad that his imperial hegemony was indeed built on the vast amount of bones. Whether it was the Chu people or the Xiongnu people, they all lost their most precious life in this war that could not tell who was just and who was injustice.
However, according to the development of history, no matter who enters such a historical stage, it is impossible to avoid the creation of these bones. In other words, bones must be created. The difference is that there is often only one person who can ascend to the throne of success through the road of bones. He must become the winner. Only when he wins, can he convey the advanced concepts of later generations to this era and allow more people to live a stable and happy life.
Now he was relieved and waved his long halberd and no longer showed mercy. If his halberd cannot take the other person's life, then the other party's sword would have to take his own life. Human beings are at this stage, just like creatures in nature, in order to survive, they must kill their opponents. Darwin said that survival of the fittest is true.
While he was thinking about it, a Hun cavalry came towards him roaring. Xiang Yu suddenly realized that he was about to defeat him by wielding his halberd, but he saw a guard taking the lead, and the long spear sealed the throat of the visitor. The scimitar of the visitor also chopped the loyal guard's neck. The two fell down from the horse, and their four eyes were rounded.
Xiang Yu shouted violently and activated the war horse under his foot. Unfortunately, he did not bring the Wuzhi, otherwise he would have been the first to charge forward and become a model for the entire Chu army. If His Majesty the Emperor personally charged forward, the momentum of the entire Chu army would reach an unparalleled level. In ancient times, the momentum of an army could often determine the victory or defeat of the battle.
In the war between Song and Liao, the Song people were more defeated and won fewer victory. However, once, in the first year of Jingde of Emperor Zhenzong of Song, the Liao people invaded the south in large numbers. The Song Dynasty Prime Minister Kou Zhun urged Zhenzong to lead the army to march in person. As a result, Song Zhenzong arrived in Chanzhou. When the soldiers of the Song army saw the Huanglong Banner on the city tower, they immediately shouted long live and their morale was greatly boosted. Song and Liao sides fought in Chanzhou for more than ten days, and the situation was very beneficial to the Song army. The Song army defended the town behind the Liao army and shot the Liao general Xiao Talin to death at the city of Chanzhou, causing the morale of the Liao army to plummet.
A cowardly Emperor Zhenzong of Song was able to inspire the weak Song army's momentum just after reaching the front line, let alone the brave and invincible Xiang Yu, who personally drove his horse and swung his stern to kill at the forefront. None of the Chu soldiers were responsible for ten, and they killed the Huns in a row, and they had no power to fight back. When they were in a deep battle, the Huns suddenly abandoned their baggage and retreated lightly.
Xiang Yu rushed left and right with his nearly 100 guards, and no army could withstand their footsteps. In order to completely eliminate the Hun army, Xiang Yu led his guards to advance all the way north. They were preparing to rush to the north and intercept the way of the army. But the more north the Huns were soldiers, densely packed like an ant nest pried open.
Some of them were dressed in a gorgeous manner, and more than a hundred strong warriors were moving around several brightly dressed Hun nobles. Xiang Yu held down his war horse and asked the Equator beside him: "In your opinion, what kind of nobles are the Huns dressed in such a costume?"
Borichi looked closely and replied, "Go back to Your Majesty, that is the Huns Hu Xie King and his family."
"Are you sure?" Xiang Yu asked without looking back.
Bo Richi nodded and said, "That's right, the villain had seen King Hu Xie before, it must be him, it must be him, it's absolutely impossible."
Xiang Yu couldn't help but smile. There was a big fish in front of him. How could he escape? Xiang Yu plucked his horse and swung his halberd, and rushed towards the group of people. Seeing this, the guards behind him quickly followed. Now, when he looked at the Huns, there were only a hundred people who rushed towards King Hu Xie and his family. The hundred guards of King Hu Xie were not vague. They came up and protected King Hu Xie and their families to retreat first. King Hu Xie was not polite, and allowed his guards to go to the enemy, and he fled.
He received the military order from the Great Shanyu, and ordered him to immediately lead the former king of the Shanyu king. If he was slow for a while, the Great Shanyu would have no reason to survive in anger.
Xiang Yu took the lead, and took a halberd straight to the Hun who rushed to the front. The halberd that wanted to use a knife to seal Xiang Yu's halberd. When the scimitar just touched the halberd, it was a powerful airflow that aroused the blade. The man's mouth hurt, and the knife in his hand came out. The key reason why his halberd escaped was that Xiang Yu's halberd had pierced his chest. Xiang Yu exerted force suddenly, lifted the man in the air, and then threw him to the ground with a sudden move.
The other Huns were shocked. Unexpectedly, a fierce Hun warrior died after less than a move under the Chu people. If the Chu people were so powerful, wouldn’t they come to die?
Many people were frightened and wanted to escape with their legs. It was not that they didn't want to do this, but that it was too late. The Chu people rushed to the front like the wind. Taking advantage of their moment of dazedness, they called out mercilessly. One charge came, and the Huns were killed and injured. The hundred guards of Hu Xie Wang were left.
However, Xiang Yu's target was not on those guards. Killing them all, he just killed a few more Hun soldiers. If he caught King Huoxie or cut him down, it would be a great contribution. These Huns would be terrified and would not dare to be enemies with the soldiers of the Great Chu. Solving this battle so quickly and annihilated King Huoxie's troops would cause a half-dead blow to the old Shang Shanyu.
King Hu Xie also felt that these people seemed to be coming for him, but he wanted to protect his family and was unable to escape. Seeing that his guards were killed and injured, the Chu people chased after him again. As a last resort, he had to echo the battle.
Seeing that this "big fish" turned around to face him, Xiang Yu couldn't help but feel proud and roared, like a thunderbolt blew up in a sunny day. The halberd was like a black dragon, and he ran towards the throat of Hu Xie King. (To be continued.
