Chapter 495 Blood soaked in Yanze

connection: close

The foothills of Yanran, Iron City. Please be familiar with the domain name

When the day was the general, the fierce battle finally came to an end. Almost all the more than 3,000 Hun guards died on the spot. Only hundreds of Hun cavalry chose to escape when they saw the situation was over. However, they should not have been timid and afraid of the war, but went to Maodun to report the news. After all, such a big change occurred in Mobei, someone had to rush to report the news.

The desperate counterattack of the Huns caused great casualties to the Chu-Yan coalition, especially the more than 3,000 Huns guards were all equipped with just-made iron weapons, which greatly increased their combat power. After the fierce battle, the three thousand Yan cavalry that rushed in the front almost completely destroyed, and the Chu cavalry also suffered more than a thousand casualties!

More than 3,000 Huns guards killed and injured more than 4,000 coalition forces!

This is still a coalition of the Chu cavalry and the Yan cavalry. Although they had just passed a long and urgent marches for more than a month and experienced the bloody battle of the Shanyuting, no matter what, they were all fierce in battles, and they suffered so many casualties under the siege of absolute superior forces. What does this mean?

This shows that the Huns equipped with sharp iron weapons are very terrifying in the field!

Looking at the blood-soaked desert and the corpses lying all over the ground, Bi Shu couldn't help but feel nervous. The facts proved that the king's worries were not redundant. Once the Huns were equipped with sharp iron weapons, they were like tigers with wings. Even if they were the sharp-eyed people in the imperial guards' cavalry, they were no match for the Huns in the field battle.

When looking at the hundreds of blacksmith stoves in the iron city ahead, Bi Shu must admit that the king's strategic vision is absolutely unmatched. When others still don't feel anything, the king noticed the threat from the Huns from the end, and did not hesitate to consume national strength, and missed the opportunity to take advantage of the Han Dynasty to take advantage of the situation, and also joined forces with the Han Dynasty to wipe out the Huns first.

What is to observe thousands of miles? This is to observe thousands of miles. What is to look forward to the foresight? This is to look forward to the foresight!

Bi Shuzheng was deeply moved. But suddenly there was a huge noise in front of him. When he looked up quickly, he saw Prince Yan Zangyan and the last three hundred cavalry were slaughtering the blacksmiths in the iron city. More than 20,000 Central Plains blacksmiths (a small number of blacksmiths and a large number of apprentices) who had been watching on the wall before were running around.

Obviously, Zangyan's eyes were already red, so he exhaled his anger on the heads of these blacksmiths in the Central Plains.

This idiot. Bi Shu couldn't help but curse Zangyan in his heart, and didn't look at what time it was and where it was? You should know that this is an iron city deep in the desert. Once the Yan army's killing scares these blacksmiths and then lets them escape into Yanran Mountain, it will be difficult to gather them together!

If these blacksmiths were allowed to stay in the desert, even if the Huns could not escape this disaster and fell into decline, the next nomadic people occupying the desert would become rapidly powerful with the advanced iron smelting technology brought by these blacksmiths, and once again posed a fatal threat to the Central Plains dynasty. In this way, the Chu-Yan coalition's plowing and sweeping xue would become meaningless!

Bi Shu ordered Hu Yan to say, "Hu Yan, you will lead troops to stop the prince Yan, and then send a large number of scouts to block the Iron City. You must not let a blacksmith leave the city!" "Hey!" Hu Yan responded with a loud bang and took the order.

Bi Shu breathed a sigh of relief and walked slowly down the unbuilt city. Now he should consider how to deal with the more than 20,000 blacksmiths, as well as the large number of Central Plains Furu from the Shanyu Court. If possible, Bi Shu certainly would not mind taking them back. However, if he wanted to bring more than 300,000 Furu and the craftsmen returned, is it really possible?

If Maodun's army returns quickly and intercepts the craftsman again, the consequences will be unimaginable!

For a moment, Bi Shu fell into a fierce battle between heaven and man, and reason told him that he must execute all the Central Plains Furu and craftsmen who were captured by the Huns from Mobei without hesitation. However, Bi Shu really couldn't make up his mind. If the Huns were killed, they would be killed, but these hundreds of thousands of people were all robes.

Juyanze, Xiongnu camp.

Under the thunderous attack of more than 30,000 Han cavalry, more than 10,000 Hun cavalry who were successively invested in the battle quickly retreated. Although this Hun cavalry had more than 10,000 cavalry, not many were equipped with iron weapons. Therefore, their performance on the battlefield was far inferior to that of the Huns guards who broke into the Iron City, and basically did not pose too much threat to the Han cavalry.

In the era of cold weapons, there are many factors that affect the combat effectiveness of an army. The most important factor is of course training, followed by morale, that is, fighting will, and finally the advantages and disadvantages of equipment. However, when the morale between the two sides of the war is almost a little different, the advantages and disadvantages of equipment immediately become the decisive factors.

In terms of training alone, the Chu cavalry and the Han cavalry were all well-trained, while the Huns lived on horseback since childhood. Riding horses and arrows was their instinct. Therefore, the three armies were not much different in this regard. If they had to compare the advantages and disadvantages, the Huns should have a little advantage, but they were also quite limited.

In terms of morale, the three armies seemed to be different, and they were not short of the will to fight to the death.

However, in terms of equipment, the Chu army cavalry equipped with ring-headed swords are undoubtedly the strongest, followed by the Han army cavalry using double-edged heavy swords, and finally the Hun cavalry using wooden horse forks or bronze daggers. However, the gap between the Chu and Han armies is limited, and the Huns are a whole era behind the Chu and Han armies, and their disadvantages are obvious.

Because of this, the Chu cavalry was very difficult to win against the Huns guards equipped with iron weapons, while the Han cavalry was relatively easy to win against the Huns guards equipped with only bronze weapons.

Zhou Guanfu was soaked in blood and returned to Bai Mo on a red dragon horse. While chāing the bloody halberds behind him, he said excitedly: "Prime Minister, we have made a lot of money this time. Finally, we have roughly estimated that there are at least millions of cattle, sheep and livestock here, and more than 100,000 war horses, hahaha... "Bai Mo smiled slightly and said: "The war horses can be taken away, but the cattle and sheep may not be taken away." Seeing Zhou Guanfu's shocked look, Bai Mo explained: "Juyanze is only four or five hundred miles away from the Yuezhi royal city. After Maodun learned the news, he will definitely bring the army to help quickly. We drive the cattle and sheep and cannot walk fast, and we will inevitably be caught up by them. So although there are many cattle and sheep, we can only endure the pain and give up. "Zhou Guanfu said annoyedly: "This is a pity." But it cannot be left to the Huns.

. "There is an inexplicable cruelty in Bai Mo's eyes flashed by and said in a deep voice, "You will lead the troops to slaughter all the cattle and sheep, tie them behind the ponytail and drag them to the decay, and then throw them into Juyanzeli. " "There is only this." Zhou Guanfu nodded and asked again, "What should I do if there are hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu Furu?" Bai Mo was sober, and a cold murderous intent suddenly burst into the corner of his mouth, saying, "Kill them all, no one left!" If possible, Bai Mo would not mind bringing these hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu Furu back to Guanzhong, and no matter what, this can greatly supplement the population in Guanzhong. This can be said to be beneficial but not harmless. However, Maodun's Hun army will soon catch up, and time really does not allow it.

"Now!" Zhou Guanfu replied with a loud bang, turned around and left.

In the conflicts between different civilizations in the cold weapon era, genocide was actually the norm, because both sides knew very well that in order to make the other party surrender, the number of strong men on the other party must be controlled below a dangerous level. Therefore, Zhou Guanfu did not think that Bai Mo's military order was inappropriate.

"Wait." Bai Mo suddenly called Zhou Guanfu again.

"Prime Minister?" Zhou Guanfu turned around and asked in surprise.

Bai Mo was in a while and finally said, "Think carefully, it would be better not to kill all hundreds of thousands of furu and millions of cattle and sheep. In this way, killing most of them will only leave a small part for the Huns!" "Leave a small part?" Zhou Guanfu asked in confusion, "Prime Minister, why is this?" "Don't ask why." Bai Mo shook his hand and said, "Just do what I told you." Zhou Guanfu answered again, turned around and turned away. Before a moment, the endless wailing sound of the Huns and the endless whine of cattle, sheep and livestock sounded, and the blood flowing from millions of people and animals almost soaked the entire Ju Yanze into a sea of ​​blood...

Mize, the Xiongnu camp.

The figures of Maodun's Shanyu were shaking in the big tent. Uncle Gong said he was busy applying the Maodun golden needle on the soft couch. In front of the couch were the tribal leaders such as Gu Nuoyan, the right wise king, and each of them looked nervous. The air in the big tent was almost frozen. No one knew what happened to Shanyu. Why was it like this?

It took half an hour before Maodun finally sighed quietly and slowly opened his eyes.

"Da Shanyu!" "Da Shanyu, do you feel better?" "Da Shanyu, what's wrong with you, ah?" Maodun just opened his eyes. The right wise king Gu Nuoyan, the left wise king Gao Aduo, the right wise king Kayitu, the left wise king Munata, the right wise king Qilunqing, the left wise king Duomuxiu, the right wise king Ming Acha, and the dozen or so Hunnu kings, including the soft couch and asked about their well-being.

Maodun shook his right hand with some difficulty, and everyone closed their mouths in unison.

The entire tent suddenly became silent. Looking at the tribal leader and the little kings of various tribes who looked respectful in front of the bed, Maodun suddenly felt an unprecedented worry.

Maodun had already felt the call of his father Toman Shanyu, and he knew that he would not live long.

Maodun took office by killing his father Toman Shanyu. In order to consolidate his throne, he successively killed his stepmother, half-brother and a large number of ministers. In his lifetime, no one dared to challenge his authority. Even a peerless hero like Hu Yan Zhengde could only escape from the Central Plains.

The question is, what if he died?

If the Zuoxian King Ji Xiong, who was of course the heir to the Great Shanyu, was still alive, the Huns were certainly not as good as Luàn. Unfortunately, Ji Zu had already died before Maodun, while Ji Zu's two sons Junchen and Yi Zhixie were still young. Will the ministers in front of him willingly serve the Military Minister or Yi Zhixie as the Great Shanyu? (To be continued.
