General Qin

Chapter 599

The night was dark.

Because it was the last day of September, the sky was dark and there was no trace of the moon, only a few stars flickered, casting a faint light on the earth.

The gust of wind on the grassland was blowing, and the shrill howling of wolves could be heard faintly.

The dark moon kills the night, the wind is high and the sky is set on fire.

A large-scale prairie cavalry was quietly approaching the prey in the distance. The sound of the huge wind covered the sound of the horseshoes running, and the dark night covered them with a layer of invisibility.

About five or six miles away from the camp where the Qin army was located, the prairie cavalry stopped and waited for the scouts in front to report the specific situation.

Half an hour later, several Xiongnu scouts returned and reported to Touman Shanyu: "The camp of the Qin army has not changed. They are in the same position as Zuo Guduhou said. However, there are some soldiers in the camps of the Qin people everywhere." There are bonfires, and there are people keeping watch at night, we dare not approach, so we can only watch from afar.”

"Okay, the camp of the Qin army has not changed. It seems that Zhao Tuo was tricked by my trick of false surrender, and he really stayed here waiting for me to surrender. Hahaha, what a Qin man!"

"Zhao Tuo, Zhao Tuo, you too will be tricked by me one day!"

Touman Shanyu chuckled, since there were no major changes in the Qin army camp, he could launch an attack according to the plan he had made before.

"The Qin army is divided into five camps. Zhao Tuo's big tent is located in the central army, and there are barracks guarding the east, south, west, and north sides."

"I will attack the east, west, and north of the Qin camp with 60,000 cavalry separately. As long as I attack the Qin camp and slaughter wantonly, the Qin people will be attacked in a hurry, and they will rush towards their central army in confusion and panic. "

"When the time comes to face the three-way army's attack on the Chinese army's camp, and it will be in the middle of the night, even if Zhao Tuo is powerful, it is impossible to restore the situation and regain control of the army. Under the attack of my three-way army, the Qin people will They can only be routed and run southward, breaking up their camps in the south, so that they don’t have to worry too much about the troops they have deployed in the south.”

"So I will send 20,000 cavalry to hide in the south. I will not launch an attack at first, leaving a way for the Qin people to escape, and let their defeated army flee to the south. When the Qin army begins to be defeated, the 20,000 cavalry Then come out to chase and intercept, in order to kill and injure the Qin people, it would be even better if we can catch Zhao Tuo in the chaos!"

Touman Shanyu summoned several generals under his command and began to assign the various ministries to the battlefield.

Although he has never learned Zhu Xia's art of war, he also comprehended the "encircle three and lack one" style of play in the actual combat on the grassland, leaving a way for the enemy to survive, which can quickly destroy the enemy's morale and prevent them from desperately resisting in a desperate situation.

Su Jiasha asked Zhao Tuo to take 20,000 Yueshi cavalry to the south on the grounds that he had a big enmity with Zhao Tuo, and carried out the task of chasing and intercepting the defeated Qin army.

Touman Shanyu saw through Su Jiasha's careful thinking, and took charge of the task of chasing and defeating the defeated army in the south, with the greatest reward and the least risk.

For the sake of her followers, Su Jiasha chose a task that could preserve her strength.

Touman Shanyu promised, in his opinion, anyway, after this battle is over, he will marry Su Jiasha and take the 20,000 Yuezhi cavalry into his hands completely, so retaining the strength of the Yuezhi cavalry is also preserving He is more independent than his own strength, so it is naturally possible to do so.

Soon, the attack direction of each department was assigned.

Wu Luxu, king of Zuo Guli, attacked the Qin camp in the west, Xu Budang, king of Right Guli, attacked in the east, and Su Jiasha, a noble daughter of the Yue family, was in charge of the south.

In the north direction, Huyan Tiao, the Marquis of the Left Bone, launched an offensive.

As for Da Shanyu himself, he led the last 20,000 elites to command the overall situation in the periphery, as a reserve force, to guard against any situation that may arise at any time.

"This brat Zhao Tuo is very insidious. It's hard to guarantee that he won't come up with some tricks. I have to reserve my troops as a precaution."

Tou Manchanyu thought this way, he was still a little afraid of Zhao Tuo, who was scheming one after another.

At this time, the tasks were assigned, and Wu Luxu, Xu Budang, Huyan Tiao, and Su Jiasha each assembled their troops and began to act separately.

The Xiongnu army, like a pack of wolves hunting on the grassland, launched an offensive from four directions under the cover of night.

...

On the edge of the Qin Army's East Camp.

The sky was full of stars, and a bonfire was burning on the ground. Due to the scarcity of wood in the grassland, the number of bonfires of the Qin Army was not many, and they were not burning vigorously enough, barely illuminating the surrounding ground.

"The general has ordered that the Huns are very likely to attack us tonight. This is a matter of life and death. Please cheer me up and keep your eyes open!"

Wang Ling patrolled the area he was in charge of, calling out to his Qin pawns as he walked, to prevent anyone from dozing off.

Xi Juan yawned, then raised his hand and slapped himself.

When he was slightly awake, he looked up and looked around, and saw the darkness outside the car formation. With his eyesight, he couldn't see very far. In addition, the wind howling on the grassland made him unable to detect the situation a few meters away from the car formation. .

A pawn also took a look outside and muttered, "It's such a dark sky, and the wind is so strong, if the Huns really took the opportunity to touch it, we might not be able to see it clearly.

Xi Juan laughed and said, "They will call, don't forget the barbed wire that was sprinkled during the day, think about what it would be like for the Huns to step on it."

On the other side, Wang Chu, who was yawning in front of the bonfire, also laughed when he heard this: "In addition to the barbed wire, there are also trenches dug outside, and there is also a horse trap that the general ordered to dig outside. I am in a coma. I glanced at it from time to time, it was really densely packed, if there were cavalry rushing over, I'm afraid they would all break their horse's legs and open their mouths to shout..."

"Ahhh!"

The shrill screams came at the right time, one after another, as if responding to what Wang Xi said.

"Enemy attack!"

Wang Ling, who was patrolling, yelled, picked up the horn hanging on his waist, and blew.

In the Qin camp, horns sounded one after another.

The reprimands of Qin generals at all levels immediately sounded, and in the tents all around, Qin soldiers who were sleeping in armor and sleeping on their swords were awakened.

With weapons in their hands, they filed out of the tents, and under the leadership of military officials at all levels, they went to the positions where they had been training during the day.

For tonight's situation, they had already conducted drills during the day.

Everything seems to be in order.

...

Outside the Qin army's camp, the desolate horns of the Huns rose and fell in the wind.

This is the signal for the Huns to launch an attack together.

But at this moment, in the sound of the high-pitched horn, there were constant screams and curses from the Huns, and the neighing and screams of war horses reverberated, making the offensive horn seem a little weird.

"Zhao Tuo is treacherous!"

"Insidious Qin people!"

"Shameless!"

Wu Luxu and other Xiongnu nobles kept cursing.

It was different from what they imagined, when 60,000 cavalry attacked the Qin camp, smashed through the chariot formation, massacred the sleeping Qin people, and drove the defeated army to attack the Qin people's middle camp. The night attack of the Xiongnu at this moment is a bit like a pack of wolves jumping into a trap on their own initiative, which is ridiculous and ridiculous.

The people of Qin didn't know what was sprinkled on the ground, and the galloping horses of the Huns would all scream in pain when they stepped on it.

Some war horses fell to the ground, some stood up and neighed, and fell off the Hun warriors on horseback. The Hun warriors who fell to the ground also rolled on the ground in pain as if their buttocks had been poked into something. , the more it rolled, the more it screamed, until it was trampled into rotten meat by the horse's hooves behind it.

At the same time, in addition to setting hidden weapons on the ground, the Qin people actually dug many large and small deep pits outside the barracks. When the horses galloped and stepped into these deep pits, most of the horses' legs would be broken on the spot, and the horses howled. Falling to the ground, the scene really made the audience cry.

When the Huns filled the pit with the corpses of their troops and exhausted their hidden weapons, and came to the front of the Qin army's chariot formation, they discovered that there was a large and deep trench in front of the chariot formation, which was not theirs at all. It can be rushed through on horseback.

Touman Chanyu, who was far away from the camp, could hardly see the distant scene clearly, but the fast horse in front had already brought the news that the Qin people had set a trap.

"What a treacherous Zhao Tuo, who has more eyes than the Huns and raises more cattle and sheep, and actually planted such things outside the camp."

Touman Chanyu pinched the blood-stained barbed wire, with a cloudy face.

He was not sure that this was a trap specially set by Zhao Tuo after he saw through his plan of false night attack. Or Zhao Tuo didn't see through it, and just took defensive measures out of a precautionary mentality.

No matter what it is, Touman Shanyu is now in a difficult situation.

Full of confidence, he used the tactic of feigning surrender, and summoned 100,000 cavalry to attack the Qin people at night.

Hundreds of thousands of grassland people had full trust in him, and they all wanted to follow Da Shanyu to smash the Qin camp, avenge with the blood of the Qin people, and at the same time plunder another wave.

In this case, retreat before the start.

A bunch of Qin people's traps scared him away, so he decided to hang around on the grassland in the future.

Can he, Mandanyu, still sit in this seat?

"It's already here, it's a pity to leave, the chance of night attack is not always available."

"Let's try again. If the situation is not right, we can leave. We are all cavalry, and it is the grassland in the dark night. As long as we want to leave, the people of Qin can't stop us."

Touman Shanyu comforted himself, and then looked at the 20,000 royal elites who surrounded him.

His elites are all by his side, and those who attack the Qin formation are all other tribes, so it doesn't hurt to try.

Touman Shanyu made up his mind completely, and ordered to his cronies: "Send me an order to Wu Luxu, Xu Budang and Huyan Tiao, the Qin army's trap is difficult to break, so dismount from my horse and enter the Qin camp! "

"A Hun warrior without a horse can also kill a lot in the sheep pen!"

...

The camp of the Qin Army's Central Army is located, and the flames are bright at the moment, and the heavily armed Qin soldiers guarded a Qin general with torches.

This Qin general was nearly forty years old, and he was tall and mighty. He stepped up to a high platform in the middle of the camp, climbed up and looked into the distance, looking at the flames of the surrounding military camps and the shaking shadows fighting each other.

He said coldly: "The general's prediction is correct. The Huns really came to attack at night. The barbarians in the grassland are treacherous and cunning. It's really unbelievable. They should be wiped out."

"What General Yang said is that the barbarians are naturally unbelievable. But it is precisely because of their intention to feign surrender and attack at night that they gave us a chance to win. If the general can succeed, we have to thank the one who wanted to Touman Shanyu who plotted a false surrender, heh heh."

Li Shiqi smiled.

Standing on the high platform in front of him was Yang Yuan, the chief general of the Northern Division, who was ordered by General Zhao Tuo to temporarily take over the defense of the entire Qin Army camp.

Yang Yuan nodded slightly, his eyes skipped the scene of fighting in the dark night, and looked towards the north shrouded in darkness.

"General, you should be in Manchester City by now, right?"
