Three hundred and twentieth nine chapters back

The people who were shot and killed have been buried underground, but there is no look of sadness on the faces of all the people. Instead, they are full of surprises. Is there anything that can make people feel more excited than suddenly meeting their brothers on the enemy's territory?

Woolen cloth?

After confirming with each other that the other party was a general of Great Qin like themselves, everyone immediately stopped fighting and started chatting with each other. They learned that these people who came were actually the ones that their group had been talking about a few days ago.

Du and the men and horses he led, and all the people who followed Chao An were excited. In their hearts, they thought that Zidu and the other 30,000 people had all been buried on the grassland. In their hearts, these people were already themselves.

Idols, unexpectedly these people not only did not die in the battle, but also appeared in front of them, which could not help but make everyone feel happy and excited.

Zidu told the story of his battle with the Huns on the grassland, and then said: "Now I am rushing back to Xianyang to present the news and tokens that King Yuezhi promised to join forces with me, Da Qin, to deal with the Huns.

Your Majesty, why are you here and why are you so vigilant, so that when you see us, you can't help but hurt people?"

"The emperor has accepted the advice of the ministers and no longer intends to destroy the Huns purely by force..." Chao Ang told Fusu's new decision, "...this time I was ordered to come to the grassland to fight with

The Yuezhi people have joined forces, and after inflicting heavy losses on the Huns, we can negotiate with them to resolve the hostility between us in a peaceful way. Now General Peng has brought the news that the Yuezhi king agreed to cooperate and join forces.

Then I don't have to rush to Yuezhi anymore, but can return to Xianyang to report to the emperor."

Only then did Zidu realize why such a group of people appeared here. It turned out that they also wanted to go to Yuezhi. "Master Chao hasn't told me yet why you want to take action when you see us, but because your whereabouts have been known to the Huns.

?”

Chao An sighed, and told the story of how he and others encountered the Huns' cavalry a few days ago and killed them all, and then said: "Kill these cavalry wandering on the grassland, the Huns will soon find out

, when the time comes, the Huns will definitely send men and horses to catch up from behind. We were too worried and frightened, so we took action without looking carefully after seeing the general and his party, and several soldiers died from exhaustion.

It’s so shameful to come here.”

Zidu was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the matter was more serious than he thought. Since Chao Ang and others killed a group of Huns' cavalry, the Huns would definitely not let them go. And this is a grassland after all. People like him

Whether fighting or escaping, they are not as flexible and familiar with the environment as the Huns. Now they are really in big trouble. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Now we have no other way, although we can continue to Yuezhi.

But we don’t know whether the Huns have deployed troops in the direction leading to Yuezhi, so now we have to go for it even if we know that the road back to the Central Plains is full of dangers and traps. The only advantageous place for us now

Even the Huns must not have imagined that we two would meet here, they must just think that there are still a hundred of you, so they may scatter their troops and give us an opportunity to take advantage of."

Chao Ang nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, now we can only make a breakthrough. I hope that the Huns will disperse their troops and pursue our whereabouts as the general said, so that we can stand out with superior strength. That's right.

We were not careful, otherwise General Peng and you would have been able to return to Xianyang safely."

"Now that the time has come, why bother talking about this anymore. Besides, we can't guarantee that we won't be discovered by the Huns after entering the grassland. Now we should discuss and determine the most convenient route." Zidu said hurriedly.

The two of them, together with the warriors sent by the Yuezhi King to the Central Plains and a few warriors who were familiar with the grassland, drew a sketch of the grassland with their swords on the muddy ground by the river, and discussed how to find the best path.

A convenient road. They didn't decide on a road until the sun set in the west, and then everyone ate their dry food and fell asleep. With the addition of hundreds of people like Zidu, the people of Qin felt even more confident.

, and slept until dawn.

The sergeants who had rested for a whole day had returned to their best condition. After carefully inspecting their bows, crossbows, swords and other weapons, they set foot on the road back to the Central Plains again under the leadership of Zidu.

As soon as they walked together, a Huns cavalry of several hundred people came in their direction, but it was the Huns who were chasing Chao Ang and others. They saw the riverside from a distance.

A group of people on the mountain paid attention, with arrows on strings and swords unsheathed, ready for battle. However, they did not expect that the number of enemies here would be several times greater than what the man who escaped death said. They rushed to kill

When he went up to surround and kill the enemy, he found that he was surrounded by the enemy.

The Qin troops here, whether they were protecting Chao Ang or following Zidu, were all elite warriors. As soon as they saw the Huns cavalry coming to kill them, they dispersed and rushed up from both sides.

surrounded these Huns.

The Huns who were originally thinking about killing the enemy were stunned. They rushed up to face the Qin soldiers who were waiting for them. They were attacked by Qin soldiers on their left and right at the same time. After a while, the Huns fell into

Disadvantage. Then their formation was broken up and cut off by the Qin soldiers. What happened next was much simpler. Everyone in the Qin soldiers hated the Huns, and naturally they would not let them continue to live. Less than

In half an hour, these three hundred Huns cavalry were completely wiped out.

After killing all the Huns, Zidu ordered the soldiers to go back on the road. At this time, the sun had not reached the sky.

They went east first. Instead of rushing south to leave the grassland, they once again entered the place where the Huns gathered most densely. This was a strategy they thought of last night, that is, since the Huns already knew about Chao Ang and others

If people are on the grassland, they will definitely think of blocking the way back south immediately. And from the traces of their progress, the Huns must also guess that their goal is to the west, so it is not safe to go west.

.On the contrary, the Huns' own hinterland may be the weakest place for their search. Once there, they can think of another way.

After a few days, everyone felt that this strategy was very successful. They did not encounter too many Huns cavalry along the way, and when they saw that their heading was towards the east, the cavalry did not have any impact on them.

Suspicious, he just watched these hundreds of people leave. This made the sergeants very excited, saying that it was God's blessing. Even Zidu and others found this unbelievable. When they saw the Huns' cavalry,

They were prepared for war, but this was the result.

In fact, this is because they don't know the current situation on the grassland. There are less than 20,000 cavalry left on the grassland now, and Modu still leads 30,000 horses to plunder villages and towns in the Central Plains. In this way, they cannot

They sent too many troops to search for the whereabouts of the enemy who had killed their own people. After all, Zidu's massacre of the Huns a year ago still made them wary. They were deeply afraid that this was a ploy of the Qin people.

After their own army is mobilized, those ordinary tribesmen will be killed. And judging from the intelligence they received, the number of enemies who have penetrated into the grassland is not too large. As long as a certain amount of troops are deployed in the south, they can

They sent men and horses to pursue them all the way to the west, but naturally these people couldn't escape.

Their reaction was anticipated by Zidu and others, so they were able to walk through the hinterland of the grassland without attracting the attention of the Huns. When they were almost approaching Shanyu's tent, the Qin army, which had been rushing along for several days, stopped.

came down. Then they began to walk day and night, carefully avoiding the Huns and moving towards the south.

After a few days, they were getting closer and closer to the edge of the grassland. Seeing that they were about to leave the grassland and return to their hometown without any danger, everyone had relaxed smiles on their faces. That night they continued

Walking towards the south under the starlight, I found a very large team vaguely appearing in front of me. Judging from the sparse formation, this was the Huns army, and judging from the appearance of their station, this

The number of the army was no less than 20,000 to 30,000.

Seeing the Huns army in front of them, everyone was dumbfounded. They didn't know where they came from and how they could appear on their way back to the Central Plains. Although it was the middle of the night, the weather was still cool.

, but cold sweat broke out on Zidu's back. He knew that this was the only way for them to go. It would be impossible to go around here, and the detour might also alarm the Huns there. Now the only way

The way is to risk passing by them. If this army is awakened, I am afraid that people like myself will only end up being trampled into pulp.

Zidu whispered to the people: "Now we have to pass by the Huns, and the hoofbeats of our horses are too loud to be noticed by them, so we have to abandon the horses and go. This is far away from our country, the Qin Dynasty."

Yuan County is not far away. As long as we run with all our strength, we can rush out of the grassland and return to Jiuyuan County before dawn. But this section of the road is not too short. It is the time to test us. Do you dare to give it a try?"

After all the Qin soldiers looked at each other for a few times, they all nodded silently. Zidu said: "In that case, everyone will take their weapons with them, discard everything else, and then quietly pass in front of the Huns' tent together.

"As he said this, he was the first to jump off his horse. The other Qin soldiers also jumped off their horses, and then followed him and quietly moved forward.
