General Hu Han who besieged the fort was Sui Yu, the prefect of Wuyuan. It is said that he was descended from Sui He, a hero of the early Han Dynasty. He had 10,000 Hu Han disciples under his command, sent from Shuofang, Wuyuan and other places, and the components were quite mixed. Half were descendants of soldiers and civilians during the Han Dynasty, and the other half were Hu people outside the frontier who had surrendered to the Han Dynasty for a hundred years.

During the reign of Wu and Zhaoxuan in the Han Dynasty, these surrendered Hu also had a fanaticism about the powerful Han families. As vassal soldiers, they actively followed the Han generals to the frontier. In the battle of the northern desert, sealed the wolf and the servants, and even the five generals attacked the Huns. They all acted as guides and vanguards for the Han army and attacked the Huns in ways familiar to the Huns.

However, with the decline of the Han family, the benefits of the Qiang and Hu vassal states were not much passed, and Wang Mang used his own efforts to spend a generation of time to make these Qiang and Hu dynasties, which were almost sinicized, free from their abilities.

In terms of status, Wang Mang regarded him as "not my race", demoted the kings and princes in the name of the tribe leader of the vassal state to one level, and ordinary people were also bullied by cunning officials and controlled them like slaves.

Wang Mang said that he would fight the Xiongnu decisively, and sent twelve 200,000 troops to station the border to eat Bingzhou and drink Bingzhou. However, the people of Bingzhou were in trouble, and each household had to raise a royal army.

In addition, in those years, the Wuyuan in Shuofang was severely drought, so the people were living in poverty. The descendants of the garrison soldiers were all bandits, not to mention the Qiang and Hu vassal states, so they simply joined the Xiongnu team, turned their horse heads, and began to plunder border counties, and serve as the guide and vanguard for the Xiongnu.

After Hu Han was established, they really missed the great man because they had a good life in those years.

But the converts changed their direction and became a favor for the Huns, hoping to distribute more food and slaves when robbing.

When facing his former compatriots, they became extremely vicious. These half-Han and half-Hu Hu soldiers were more cruel and easy to kill than the Huns, and they did not care about the friendship between the Tongzhou. In the early summer of this year, the Huns started the massacre of Meijicheng, while the Hu Han soldiers took over most of the crimes.

According to the private summary of the King of Wei, "The two Japanese devils are more hateful than the Japanese!"

But today, the two Japanese fake enemy who had been arrogant in Henan for a whole year finally attracted a fierce counterattack!

The rumbling drum beats were like thunder from all directions. The soldiers and civilians in the New Qin who were originally huddled in the fort roared out like a rain that had accumulated in dark clouds for a long time, rushing towards the firelight of the Hu Han camp.

The Hu Han soldiers were used to the unblocked movement with the Xiongnu horses supporting them. Each county was invincible under the storm of the Huns. They followed the battle and were quite relaxed and caught off guard against today's counterattack.

Only when they had time to line up in a hurry and the spear was still messy, the soldiers and civilians in the New Qinzhong, who were mainly short-soldiers, came over. White and yellow cloth belts were wrapped around their foreheads or arms to make a difference. The flames reflected their angry eyes, as if they were spraying flames!

The commander of the Northern Territory, Meng Ze, held a ring knife in his hand, took the lead, and slashed directly at the head of the Hu Han soldiers.

Every knife is filled with long-depressed anger!

It is time for the invaders who wantonly destroy their homeland to pay the price!

...

While the soldiers and civilians of the Fort in Mengze led the Wubao to fight with the Hu Han soldiers, the main force of Fuping County led by Zang Nu rushed directly to the Xiongnu camp between Qinqu and Hanqu!

Chao Cuo during the Han Dynasty summarized the advantages and disadvantages of the Han and the Huns: when they dismounted, the swords and halberds were connected, and when they were removed, they could not give the feet of the Huns; when they were strong armor and sharp blades were mixed with lengths, the crossbows were connected, and when they were all in front of them, the Huns' soldiers could not be given.

To put it bluntly, in the case of insufficient cavalry, do not fight with them in the flat and vast wilderness. These two canals around Fuping County, the special terrain listed by the fort, coupled with the cover of night, is the only opportunity to annihilate the invaders!

However, the Huns with horses were much more mobile and flexible than the Hu Han soldiers without horses. When more than 10,000 military and civilians in Fuping County rushed to the Hu camp in a fierce manner, they saw empty felt tents and bonfires that had not yet been extinguished. The horse hooves outside the camp were messy. The Huns's little king took tens of thousands of Huns cavalry in a short time.

"Chase!"

Zang was very anxious: "According to the agreement, all the forts will also be blocked from the bridges. The barbarians must cross the Han Canal to escape. Be sure to catch up with them by the canal!"

"When we followed the king to cross the river and attack Hu, we fought in the ditches, causing the Hu horses to sink into the mud and lose their mobility. We fought with them in close combat and achieved great achievements!"

However, the two legs were still less than four legs. When Zang Nu took the people panting and chased them to the edge of the Han Canal, he only caught hundreds of horseback riders who had broken the rear and trapped them in the ditches. The Huhu troops abandoned the two Japanese soldiers, Hu Han soldiers, and all went to the wilderness outside the canal, and were running a whole team several miles away.

"Weiwei, kill us!"

After a night of fierce battle, the people of Xin Qin, who had already aroused blood, asked for a fight, but Zang Nu shook his head. This was a long war, and we must never attack Hu's strengths with our own shortcomings. We must not be anxious.

He sent thousands of people to support Mengze, but his eyes could not be moved away from the Zuo Guli King flag in the Huns.

"As for whether the Hulu leaves or stay, it depends on when General Geng will arrive!"

...

"King Zuoguli" Wudasha Hou straightened the helmet on his head, turned around, and watched the heads of several Xiongnu people who had cut down in the Han Canal and inserted them on the tip of the spear to provoke the people in the new Qinzhong who kept shouting. He was still scared.

He never expected that the Chinese man, as soft as a sheep, would launch such a fierce counterattack, and the number of people was far beyond his imagination. Could it be that every man in the New Qin Dynasty became a soldier?

Like a little wolf whose horns were pushed to the stomach, Wuda Shihou was scared and embarrassed and angry.

But he also understood that fighting in the Han Canal could not play the strengths of the Huns at all, so he could only send cavalry teams to investigate around the periphery to see if he had the opportunity to find a weak point and rush in and rescue the trapped Hu Han soldiers.

The advantage of the Huns is that the horse team is galloping and shooting, and requires good vision and light. Wudashi Hou kept looking to the east, hoping that the rising sun would rise early.

However, when the fish belly turned white in the east, the experienced cavalry beside Wuda Shihou frowned.

He seemed to hear something.

The older Huns then jumped off their horses, lay on the ground and listened for a while, and their expression changed.

They come from the east, causing the surface to tremble slightly and make the mounts feel uneasy.

It was the sound of hoofs.

It's a thousand troops!

At this time, with bursts of exclamations, Wudashi Hou could also see the visitors from afar.

The leading one was the more than a hundred cavalry and Hun scouts in the east. They were trying hard to speed up to avoid chasing. The other party came too fast and too fast, and they couldn't even get enough rewards.

Behind him, the dust on the wasteland was boiling wildly, with thousands of horses galloping, and the light cavalry was urging. It was obvious that there were only three thousand, but it came out of the momentum of ten thousand cavalry!

They stopped three miles away, and Geng Yan, the leader, stopped his horse. The general was covered with black armor, red crimson robe, and a yellow turban was wrapped around the iron. In the New Qin Dynasty, this was the symbol of the "Fifth Battalion". When he saw it, he knew that his own people were coming.

Geng Yan pulled out the Hundred Refining Ring Knife in his hand, raised it high above his head, and headed to the west. The knights also did it one after another. As the rising sun in the east rose, three thousand swords reflected the rising sun, dazzlingly shining!

"Today is my first battle of the Bingzhou Military Cavalry!"

...

The soldiers and cavalry in Bingzhou were mainly recruited by the Xiongnu and Hu Han, who were destroyed by the family and their families, and the requirements were that they were more than seven feet and five inches tall, could ride horses, shoot footsteps, and have good arm strength.

If there is one such person in the inner county of the Central Plains, one or two people can be found in Shangjun and by the Xihe River.

After four months of training with stirrups and high saddles, he still looks like a cavalryman.

Today, the first person to launch a charge under Geng Yan's order was a cavalry called "Meiji Boy". There were hundreds of them, all of whom fled to Shangjun after the massacre of the city in Meiji County. The leader was the little guy who rode a bamboo horse and a companion to deceive the Bingzhou Mu Guo Jizi to eat. Now he has grown up.

Meiji boy was one of the most brave people under Geng Yan's command. He only had two requests: one was to recover his hometown Meiji County as soon as possible, and the other was to lead the war to the Wuyuan in Shuofang and even the hinterland of the Huns!

"In the past, I rode a bamboo horse, but now I ride a real horse!"

"Invade the Huns in the future and ride a mare!"

The Meiji teenagers acted as the beak of the Yan Ling formation. When they were hundreds of steps away from the enemy formation, they activated their war horses and began to accelerate!

Compared with the Bingzhou military and cavalry, the tactics of the Huns have not made any progress compared to one hundred years or two hundred years ago.

The enemies of the Huns on the grassland were mainly Wuhuan. The method of large-scale battle between the two sides was generally to organize thousands of cavalry into batches, and attack in turn to attack and shoot. After the front team shot for one round, they moved sideways, gave up their positions, and then advanced again. If the enemy encountered an arrow, they rushed in directly and ended the battle with a knife and a short spear. If the enemy was not messy, they would shoot repeatedly, and at the same time tried to surround, dismount and shoot, and consumed little by little.

But the Huns have almost forgotten how the Chinese cavalry fought for decades.

Wudashihou, the king of Zuoguli, remembered that an elderly man who had participated in the war in the Western Regions under the command of the Shanyu of Zhizhi, said that the Han cavalry did not like shooting, but like the Qiang people, they loved close synapses.

As expected, after encountering the enemy cavalry today, Wudashi Hou saw the flag on the opposite side shaking gently, and sent more than a thousand cavalry to form a geese feather formation. When it reached about hundreds of steps, it not only did not slow down, but accelerated forward!

The Marquis of Wudashi also hurriedly dispatched two thousand cavalry to stop him, but the other party rushed over with the rain of arrows from the Huns and stabbed them straight!

For the first time, I had a little unfamiliar movement and a very stimulating mood, but I only don’t lack courage!

Seeing that the enemy's armor was sophisticated, the Huns immediately scattered and opened, but some people still couldn't avoid it. Countless sharp blades instantly inserted into the front row, making the Hu cavalry who had only had time to shoot two rounds of arrows overturned the horse.

The Bingzhou cavalry that rushed to the back row used a ring knife, wielding the scattered Hun cavalry, fighting together in close combat.

The Huns had too close enough to shoot the bows and arrows, so they could only pick up the straight blade and confront the short spear.

Thousands of riders ran and trampled on the fields, and the earth was shaking, causing dust to fly, gathering with the wind and dust in the north, covering half of the sky. The enemy and we were shouting, and the sound of horses was like thunder. Everyone fought hard, either fighting on horses or wrestling after losing their horses.

The advantage of the armored soldiers was revealed, and the Huns gradually fell into a disadvantage. The Bingzhou soldiers and cavalry advanced forward like unstoppable. The two thousand Huns were like weeds that were crushed, and were quickly divided, and the horses that had lost their masters ran around...

On this day, the Huns finally recalled the horror that was once dominated by Chinese people.

Wudashi Hou looked at this scene in surprise, and he also saw some tricks: "Why do these Chinese cavalry look as skillful as the Hu people, and can activate war horses while skillfully manipulating weapons?"

You should know that even soldiers of the Hu Han regime had the opportunity to ride a horse since childhood, they had to stop the horse before they could shoot a bow and shoot a crossbow. Some riding skills were not good, and they even had to hold the horse's neck tightly so that they could not fall off when they were galloping at a rapid pace, let alone make various difficult tactical actions immediately.

It seemed that the horse was a bit strange, but Wuda Shihou didn't care about it too much. With the time of two thousand cavalry blocking, he had already divided the seven thousand cavalry on the left and right into two wings and surrounded the Bingzhou soldiers and cavalry.

After all, they have a three-fold advantage in numbers. As long as they keep a distance and do not fight close together, they can consume the enemy to death. The Huns did not lose much horsepower, but the Bingzhou soldiers and cavalry were different. Even if they marched one by one and two horses, they were quite tired from a hundred miles away.

However, before the Huns could unfold calmly, there was a sound of shouts and drums behind them!

Wuda Shihou, who had been attracted by the Bingzhou military cavalry for a long time, looked back suddenly and remembered the enemy behind him.

But he saw more than a thousand cavalrymen who had been arranged to be behind him to retreat from the canal in a mess. Behind him were countless New Qin soldiers and civilians, crossing the ditches with spears and surrounding the Huns!

The battlefield is not wide, and once it is attacked from both sides, the Huns will lose space to play their strengths in shooting.

Wuda Duke understood that the special two canals surrounding the terrain in Fuping County was a natural trap, and they had been so smooth in the past year that they jumped in by themselves!

"withdraw!"

The nature of the Hu people is to advance if it is beneficial, and retreat if it is unfavorable. He does not feel ashamed at all. His ancestor Yizhixie Shanyu escaped with a six-mule cart in the Battle of Mobei. The speed of Wudashi Hou was not slow. He issued the correct order. More than 8,000 cavalry left in the headquarters to urge horses, abandoned the Hu Han soldiers trapped in the Han canal and retreated to the north.

"Come and chase." Wudashi Hou, the king of Zuo Guli, turned his head and looked at the Wei generals behind him. Once the pursuit was launched, the enemy infantry and cavalry were completely out of touch, and the Huns could consume and destroy the Bingzhou soldiers and cavalry little by little in the rhythm of their own good sports war!

However, from the beginning to the end, Geng Yan stayed under the flag and used the scout on his back to convey the message back and forth, and dispatched the killing. He sat straight on his horse, and the red cloak behind him drooped down to cover the horse's body, like a sculpture that remained motionless.

The soldiers and cavalry in Bingzhou were eager to try: "General, are you pursuing?"

"No."

A few years ago, Geng Yan would rush up without hesitation, pull out his sword, let the war horse step out of thunder, and kill all enemies under the horse!

But Geng Yan couldn't. He was now the chief general in charge of the center, not the commander who was rushing to attack. He needed to listen to all directions, judge the enemy's intentions, wave the commander's flag, and respond calmly.

Once he made a mistake in his choice, the newly formed Bingzhou soldiers and cavalry under his command would suffer a catastrophe, not to mention that after a day and night of attack, the people and cavalry of Bingzhou were exhausted, and the soldiers and cavalry of Bingzhou could not catch up with the Huns.

They are the strong shields and shields that protect Bingzhou, so they must have the awareness of defending but not attacking. The current Bingzhou soldiers and cavalry can only fight defensively and counterattack, and they have no qualifications to fight thousands of miles with the Huns.

"The Buqi followed Yubei to guard against the return of the Huns. The rest of the people went to the Han Canal to assist the soldiers and civilians in the New Qin Dynasty to wipe out all the Hu Han soldiers!"
