Chapter 250: First Contact
According to the plan, Guo Jia took Zhao Yun's cavalry first, and Yu Ban followed behind with a large group of infantry.
The cavalry met the direction of the Huns, and the infantry advanced slowly.
The reason for this distribution, Guo Jia has his own considerations.
The Southern Xiongnu is the biggest threat to the Han border, and they will come out to plunder every year, when the Han was strong in the past, they were all carried out quietly, and now the Han is weak, and they have made a big show.
The Southern Xiongnu bordered Yunzhou, and their little prince died in the hands of Guo Jia, and the two sides can be regarded as enemies as deep as the sea, irreconcilable, and if you don't die, you will die.
Besides, Guo Jia intends to be with the world, so naturally he will not let this hidden danger be behind him.
This time, Guo Jia wants to completely eradicate this cancer.
Now the Southern Xiongnu are almost pouring into the nest for revenge, which is a great opportunity.
However, the Southern Xiongnu had 30,000 archers and were agile and mobile, so it would be difficult to annihilate them in one fell swoop.
So Guo Jia wants to completely arouse their anger.
"Report, the Huns' squad was found ahead."
There have long been Malay newspapers.
Daijun has become an empty city, and Zhao Yun has already released the Tanma.
As soon as there is a stir, the horse will come to report.
"Small troop!"
Guo Jia couldn't help frowning.
"Scouts against?"
No!
Tanma said firmly: "It seems that they are chasing someone." ”
Hunt down whom?
Hearing the news, Guo Jia immediately became interested.
What kind of person actually provoked the Huns to chase and kill?
Although he didn't know who it was, Guo Jia's intuition told him that this person was very important.
"Zilong, immediately lead Bai Ma Yi to meet him, and he must keep this person."
Originally, the commander of the 5,000 cavalry was Zhao Yun, but as soon as Guo Jia came, Zhao Yun retreated to the second line.
Of course, Zhao Yun was also willing.
For this lord, Zhao Yun still admires it very much.
Promise!
Zhao Yun answered, and led his elite cavalry to meet him.
There was still some distance from the main force of the Huns, so he was not worried about running into it.
……
Whoosh!
The Huns kept shooting arrows.
There was a big man in front of him, lying on the back of a horse, and he had already been hit by a few feathered arrows on his back.
Occasionally, the big man also turned around and shot an arrow, he shot an arrow and a person must fall off the horse, seeing the power of the big Han's cavalry, the Huns did not dare to chase too closely, and the two sides chased each other all night.
When the Great Han shot another Hun cavalryman, the arrow was already empty.
After a night of pursuit, he had run out of ammunition and food, and if it hadn't been for the two horses taking turns, he would have fallen into the hands of the Huns by this time.
Seeing that the Han had no arrows, the Huns immediately became excited.
They chased after them with all their might.
Although the Han horseman's cavalry shooting is good, the Hun soldiers who grow on horseback are not vegetarians, but the Han shoots back, they shoot along the way, and they suffer a little loss in the wind.
Now, the big Han has no feathered arrows, and it is a good opportunity for them to capture them alive.
At this moment, the big man's horse suddenly neighed, and then collapsed to the ground. I couldn't even hold it up with another horse.
The big man rolled and fell to the ground.
The action touched the arrow wound, blood gushed out, and there was a sharp pain in the back.
Finished!
Looking at the Hun soldiers who were getting closer and closer, Dahan couldn't help but flash a burst of despair.
In the end, did you not escape from the poisonous hands of the Huns?
A burst of unwillingness flashed in Dahan's heart, so he had to clench the scimitar in his hand.
As a last resort, I can only fight hand-to-hand.
Seeing that the big Han horse had fallen, the Huns behind him had a cruel smile on their faces.
In this case, there was no need for them to chase so closely, but instead slowed down the speed of their mounts and surrounded the big man in the middle.
This person pretended to be dead and escaped the slaughter of the Huns, and when the Huns were in the aftermath, he killed two people and fled.
When the Huns found out, they immediately sent two ten-captains to chase after them.
Originally, the Huns didn't pay attention to this fish that slipped through the net.
But to their surprise, in the process of chasing, the Huns were constantly shot, and more than 20 people were soon wiped out.
This matter reached the ears of Qiangqu Khan, and he immediately ordered this Nanban to be captured alive and come back to break the corpse into thousands of pieces.
So, the Huns sent a team of 100 people to chase after the Han, and the two sides chased all night, and they shot and killed more than 40 people.
In the end, the Han ran out of arrows, so he had to catch the arrows while fighting, looking back and reflecting the Huns.
And just like that, more than two dozen people were still killed.
"Vana Nanban!"
The leading centurion shouted in a crappy sinicization: "Surrender and die!" ”
Qiangqu Khan said that he must be caught alive.
That's why they didn't shoot this man with arrows.
Hum!
The big man sneered and picked up the scimitar.
"There are only Han people who died in battle, and there are no grovelling people."
Bastard!
The centurion was furious, and he also put away his bow and arrows, drew his scimitar and rushed towards the big man.
Nearly half of his own team of 100 died at the hands of this big man.
This made the centurion very unhappy.
You know, these people are all from his people.
Although the Great Khan said that he wanted to live, he did not say that he could not lack arms and legs, so he cut off the hands and feet of this person and handed them over to the Great Khan.
Seeing that the centurion was reunited, the remaining soldiers also drew their swords and rushed over.
Even if the Han Dynasty is superior in martial arts, it is not the opponent of dozens of cavalry.
The cavalry was getting closer and closer, and the Han was about to be drowned in the charge of the Huns.
At this moment, a spear suddenly flew in, piercing the centurion in an instant, and continued to plunge into the belly of the second man, and then through the belly of the second man, and inserted it into the body of the third man.
Three people were stabbed to death with one shot.
Everyone was shocked, and even the big man showed a shocked look.
At this time, they noticed that a group of cavalry rushed over at some point, all white horses, led by a sturdy man.
The spear he had in his hand was now gone.
At a critical time, Zhao Yun's White Horse Yicong finally arrived.
The cavalry of the Han Chinese!
The Huns immediately recognized it, and there must have been one or two thousand people, to say the least.
The deputy hundred households sounded the horn, and the Hun cavalry retreated like a fly.
They are very cunning, and they will not fight hard in the face of superior forces.
Zhao Yun galloped over, swept past the centurion's corpse, and retrieved his spear.
It turned out that the situation was urgent just now, and he hurriedly threw his spear.
Zhao Yun's arms had the strength of a thousand jun, and a shot flew out and could actually penetrate the bodies of three Huns.
"Are you alright?"
Zhao Yun's gaze fell on Dahan's body, and he couldn't help but flash a burst of amazement.
What a man.
This person is more than eight feet tall, with a dignified appearance, although he is surrounded by the Huns, he is still very calm.
"Thank you for saving the general's life, I don't know which assassin's subordinate the general is?"
Seeing Zhao Yun's men, Dahan hurriedly made a standard military salute.
He is still very grateful to his life-saving benefactor.
