Chapter 16 The Situation at the Border Pass
The Hun cavalry retreated, the camp was outward, compared to the Zhao army, the Huns played more flexibly, galloped on the grassland on weekdays, hunted on horseback and practiced a skill, the individual combat ability of the Hun cavalry should be above the Zhao army, the only thing missing is the formation and strategy, the Hun cavalry fought separately, echoed each other, rushed forward with extraordinary riding skills, from time to time someone bent the bow and arrow to shoot quickly, the speed did not decrease at all, so the ability is amazing.
It was Mu Chen who was coming, led by three thousand cavalry, the distance was getting closer and closer, Mu Chen's eyes widened, the Hun arrows shot at all, his body was crooked and he avoided it directly, and he screamed in his mouth, "Kill Lao Tzu, none of them can run!" The broadsword in his hand was opened, and he directly smashed it into a person, and the Hun cavalry was hit and flew directly from the horse.
Two Hun soldiers attacked Mu Chen one left and one right, a good Mu Chen, the broadsword suddenly accelerated, and the continuous fighting also mastered many skills, hitting a person's body and body quickly turned, the broadsword stabbed out directly from the side to the back, accurately hit the opponent's chest vital point, but instantly killed three people, the cavalry on both sides encountered, the scimitar in the hands of the Huns was shorter than the long sword in the elite hand of the Zhao army, and the process could not be compared.
"Get out!"
The leader of the Huns saw it in his eyes, the Zhao people were really difficult, and the cavalry in front of him was even more powerful, with a lot of casualties in a blink of an eye, plus he was shot by the opponent's bow and crossbow before, and he would lose his money if he continued to fight.
The Hun cavalry rushed outward, Mu Chen and others chased and fought, and after a fight, they had to watch the rest of the cavalry escape, Li Mu put away the big gun, and Mu Chen urged him to step forward, "Hey, see that your marksmanship is not weak, there is time to compare!" โ
"Okay, Li Mu will accompany you at any time!"
Mu Chen laughed, "Arrogant enough, Mu Chen just likes your straight nature, this friend has made a deal!" โ
"Mu Chen", Li Mu said in his mouth, where had he heard this name, it was so familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
Li Mu thought to himself, Mu Chen was proud in his heart, and patted Li Mu on the shoulder, "Brother, don't be stunned, let's go and see the * army first!" โ
"*Army!" Li Mu's eyes lit up, and he finally remembered that Mu Chen was the hero who followed Zhao Kuo of the * army, and it had already spread among the Zhao people, "Zhao Kuo's plan is to set Maiqiu, kill Wei Mu in the left and right, and repeatedly build miracles and true life, and raise troops to break Qin Xian's true skills!" "Finally, it became clear that when I heard Mu Chen's name was so familiar, Mu Chen was Zuo Mu.
Li Mu urged him to step forward, with a look of awe in his expression, Zhao Kuo's name in Zhao State does not know, especially the defeat of the Qin army in the Battle of Changping, forcing the Qin army to negotiate and withdraw from Changping, the most important thing is to defeat Bai Qi, the name of Bai Qi shocked the six countries, Li Mu wanted to fight with him, how could he have been guarding the north and never had a chance.
Li Mu urged the horse to step forward, flew off the horse and bowed down, "The last general Li Mu has seen the * army!" โ
Zhao Kuo got off the horse, smiling, no stranger to Li Mu, at that time, the good general, not even under Bai Qi and the others, stretched out his hand to his waist and took out a wooden sword, Li Mu saw it in his eyes, his eyes were wet, "When did the army see my father?" โ
Zhao Kuo handed over the wooden sword, "This is a father's promise, but it's a pity that it's more than ten years late!" I had the honor to meet General Li that day, and his spirit made Zhao Kuo admire. โ
As explained above, this wooden sword was handed over to Zhao Kuo by a general on that day, and if he went to Wu'an in the future, he would hand it over to a person, surnamed Li Mingmu, that is, Li Mu, the border guard at this time.
Li Mu carefully put it away, which condensed a father's deepest love, weighing as much as a thousand catties, "Xie * Jun!" โ
"What about the casualties of the First World War?"
Li Mu sighed and said: "There are more than 2,000 dead and wounded cavalry, and the loss of nearly half of the troops, but fortunately, the other party's losses are far above ours." โ
"What is the deployment of troops on both sides?" Zhao Kuo had just come to the border and was anxious to know the details of the other party, as the Art of War said: "Know yourself and know that you will win all battles." โ
Li Mu said: "There are 60,000 border guards, and the Huns have more than 100,000 troops this time, most of which are commanded by Da Dan, and the rest are divided into several tribes responsible for raiding and robbing, Li Mu has previously defeated several relatively weak tribes in a row, and was attacked when retreating, and the strength of this tribe should be more than 10,000. โ
"10,000 cavalry is still difficult to deal with, what if you face 100,000!" Fang only saw that the Hun cavalry was fierce, the horsemanship was amazing, and he was also good at the method of bow shooting, and the style of play was flexible.
Li Mu hesitated, "* Army, the last general has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not?" โ
"It's okay to be straight!"
Li Mu coughed, "The last general has fought with the Huns several times, mostly small-scale attacks, it is the first time that more than 100,000 troops have been raised in this way, the Huns are not only amazingly powerful, but also deeply strategic and ambitious, and the target of this attack should be Daijun!" โ
"Daigun?"
Li Mu nodded, "In order to deal with the attack of the Huns, Dai County was specially set up that day, and fortifications were built during it!" โ
"In that case, why don't you deploy troops in Daijun, but instead deal with the Hun cavalry here?" Zhao Kuo raised doubts in his heart.
Li Mu sighed and said: "Li Mu had the intention to use Daijun as bait that day to induce the Hun army to attack Daijun, and when the two sides fell into a stalemate, suddenly surprise soldiers attacked the Hun camp left and right, and then the Huns will be chaotic, and they can set up ambushes along the way to eliminate the main force of the Huns to the greatest extent!" โ
"Wonderful! It can be done, so why not? โ
Li Mu's face was embarrassed, "Li Mu only has 5,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and now it is less than 3,000, so it is difficult to succeed." โ
Zhao Kuo laughed when he heard this, and finally figured out Li Mu's true intentions, even if he was also surrounded by Li Mu, such a good general, who knew how to conspire and wonder, why not entrust him with a heavy responsibility, so it was really a condescending talent.
Li Mu didn't know why, but saw Zhao Kuo laughing loudly, "Li Mu is just a false statement, *Jun is laughing!" โ
Zhao Kuo shook his head, "What if you give you 50,000 troops?" โ
Li Mu's eyes lit up, 50,000, this is something he never dared to think about, his expression was firm, "You should destroy the Huns and raise the divine power of Zhao State!" โ
"Good! Come with me at once. โ
Single table Hun camp, the tribal leader wolf bรจi to get back, more than 6,000 people killed and wounded in a battle, can not help but feel heartache, fly off the horse and go straight to the big tent, open the curtain, a number of tribal leaders are there, eyes come, there are many ill-intentioned people, the two sides have a holiday with each other, in order to compete for the grassland cattle and sheep on the day.
"General Mu Ermu, the warrior of the Huns, welcome back!"
Holmu strode forward, "Da Danyu, the eagle on the grassland, Holmu is willing to swear allegiance." โ
Da Shan Yu nodded, "Several tribes have been attacked by Li Mu in a row, and your tribe should be behind the attacked tribe." After speaking, there was a gloomy look in his eyes, and these clan leaders were the most difficult to control on weekdays.
Holmu said: "Da Shan Yu is right, Holmu led the tribe to capture several villages, and suddenly found the traces of Li Mu of the Zhao army, and simply besieged Li Mu with a large army!" โ
Da Dan leaned forward, his eyes shining brightly, "Besiege Li Mu, go on!" โ
Huo Ermu coughed, "Li Mu led the crowd to retreat into a deserted village, fought for a full day, and saw that he could attack the opponent's camp, and he didn't want to suddenly kill a team of Zhao troops, so he was so powerful and suffered a big loss!" After speaking, he picked up the wine bag and drank half of the bag, one was thirsty, and the other was depressed.
Da Shan Yu sighed after hearing this, "It's a pity, Li Mu is a talent, it is difficult to deal with coming and going like the wind, how many people did you lose in a battle?" โ
Holmu put down the wine bag, "More than half of the dead and wounded!" The words fell as the words fell, and the eyes of everyone in the big tent were cast almost at the same time, and the hall had a large area of fertile grass under his hands, and now that he had lost so many horses, it was inevitable that people would be worried.
"So many, how many people are there to reinforce the Zhao army?"
Hall blinked, "There should be more than 10,000, after escaping, I secretly observed, there is still a Zhao army flag in the rear, and there is a Zhao character on it." โ
"Zhao!" Da Shan Yu nodded, "It should be that Handan sent reinforcements, and the main force of the border pass is still hiding in the fortress!" โ
One person was born with a fierce face, strong arms, a famous strong man among the Huns, "Da Dan Yu, no matter who comes, no matter who comes, he can't stop the Hun cavalry, and he is willing to lead the people and horses of his headquarters to attack the reinforcements of Zhao State overnight, and defeat Li Mu in one fell swoop."
"Yes, raise troops immediately."
Da Shan Yu waved his hand, his brows furrowed, and he still whispered in his mouth, "Zhao, Zhao, could it be the person named Zhao Kuo, if it is really how to deal with it!" โ
"Zhao Kuo!" Hearing Da Shan Yu mention Zhao Kuo's name from a close distance, he couldn't help but gasp, Zhao Kuo was powerful in the world, even if the Xiongnu tribes in the northwest had also heard of it.
