Chapter 89: The decisive battle is coming (Five)

Zhou Yang was looking for Li Guang and the others, and Li Guang and the others were looking for Zhou Yang, but they met unexpectedly in the formation. Like Zhou Yang, Li Guang was holding jerky meat in his mouth, riding his horse while riding.

"Master!" As soon as Li Guang met, his right thumb was stuck with greasy eyes and stood up: "If the Master hadn't expected the enemy to be the first, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

If Zhou Yang had not trained the halberd formation to resist the attack of the Huns, once the chariot formation was broken, the consequences would be disastrous. Even if all the praises were used, they would not be praised.

"Master, great!" Cheng Buzhi's praise sounded immediately.

When Zhou Yang saw that Cheng Bushi was like them, riding a horse, chewing jerky meat, and speaking a little vaguely.

Without allowing Zhou Yang to speak, Feng Jing arrived again.

Zhou Yang flew off the horse, Li Guang and the others jumped off the horse, sat on the ground, formed a circle, and began to discuss military aircraft.

"Master, after a long time of fighting, we are not at a disadvantage, but we have to worry." Li Guang quickly spoke and took the lead in expressing his opinion.

"Oh." Zhou Yang was very interested.

"The halberd formation is more flexible than the chariot formation, and defense is not a problem. If the Huns want to break through, unless they have a crossbow formation. However, they don't have a crossbow formation." Li Guang looked serious: "I'm worried that if the Huns are unfavorable and withdraw, we will not be able to catch up with the two legs and the four legs of the Huns."

Zhou Yang nodded constantly: "The Flying General is talking about the key points. The halberd formation is flexible and heavy, and is easier to defend than the chariot formation. It is difficult for the Huns to break through our formation. However, if the Huns want to retreat, we will not be able to catch up. There is only one way to intercept the Huns..."

"Great Wall!"

These two words come from Zhou Yang, Li Guang, Cheng Bushi, Feng Jing, Gongsun He, Gongsun Jian, Qin Wuhui and others. The people said in unison, as if one person was talking.

The Huns camped on the back of the Great Wall and did not occupy the Great Wall. If the Han army occupied the Great Wall, it would cut off the retreat of the Huns, and the Huns became sheep locked in the sheep pen, and they would not escape with their wings.

Although the Han army had too few cavalry and many infantry, it was difficult to kill the Huns. As long as the Huns were locked up, it was only a matter of time before the Huns were killed. The destruction of the Huns came sooner or later, and the result was the same.

"But now we cannot occupy the Great Wall." Cheng Buzhi's brows frowned, his face filled with worry: "To occupy the Great Wall, at least five thousand soldiers and horses are needed. Five thousand soldiers and horses are easy to find when marching during the day. Not to mention, the Huns are right in front of our formation, and our troops are all concentrated here and we will divide our troops out. Isn't that telling the Huns that we will occupy the Great Wall?"

Zhou Yang had a headache for this problem.

It was not that Zhou Yang did not expect to occupy the Great Wall, but that he could not distribute troops. To fight and lead the Great Wall and cut off the retreat of the Huns, he would need at least 5,000 troops, preferably 10,000 troops. Ten thousand troops are very impressive for the Han army, which has not had superior military strength. If 10,000 troops were drawn to occupy the Great Wall, it would have a great impact on the Han army.

Now, it’s really uncomfortable to win, but you can’t send troops out.

"Why!"

Li Guang and the others knew Zhou Yang's difficulties well and sighed together.

It’s not that I didn’t expect that it was something that no one could do without the ability to do it.

"When it's dark, the Xiongnu's spirit will be greatly reduced, and the casualties will be even greater. By the dark, 30,000 to 40,000 will be killed in battle, and we will be able to divide 10,000 troops to occupy the Great Wall." Zhou Yang pondered slightly and immediately had an idea.

"Yeah!" Feng Jing deeply agreed: "The decisive battle will not be completed in one day or two, but it will take several days. At the beginning, we could not send troops, but after we weakened the Huns, we could send troops."

This is the best solution at present, and everyone has no objection. After discussing the military planes, Zhou Yang went to inspect the army and saw that the Han army was very morale and everyone was excited, and they shouted that they would fight to the death with the Huns.

This is the first time in the history of the Han and the Huns that the Han army did not rely on cities. When there were few cavalry and no superior force, the Han army had the upper hand, which was enough to inspire morale in the army. It would not be possible to have the Han army without being highly motivated.

In the Xiongnu formation, Junchen Shanyu drank horse breasts and chewed jerky meat.

The ministers sat together and began to discuss military aircraft.

"The Great Shanyu, the Han crossbow formation is so terrible. Should we withdraw?"

Some ministers were frightened.

The crossbow formation was really terrible. The elite soldiers of the Shanyu headquarters attacked for half a day and died in battle more than 20,000, but they didn't even touch the corners of the Han army's clothes. It was a complete repetition of the Battle of Hetao that year. When mentioned, the ministers couldn't help but sucked in the cold air.

The military minister Shanyu had no choice but to do anything about the crossbow formation. He was the leader and could not show his fear. He was frightened, but his face seemed to be fine: "Although the crossbow formation is terrible, the Great Huns did not have a chance. As long as we survive today and tomorrow, our Shanyu personally led the elite troops to attack the two wings and backs of the Han army, he would definitely break the Han army's formation."

The elite combat power of the Shanyu headquarters was amazing, far from comparable to other Xiongnu troops. If they could be sent to attack the two wings and backs of the Han army, they might not be able to break the formation. The ministers were not only not happy, but were worried.

What they were worried about was who would Junchen Shanyu send to restrain the crossbow formation?

Whoever controls the crossbow formation will be impatient to live, and who is willing to die?

"Great Shanyu, why don't we adjust our formation now?"

A minister immediately proposed.

While resting, adjust the formation and send the Shanyu headquarters to attack the two wings of the Han army, which can reduce the losses of the elite troops in the headquarters.

Junchen Shanyu did not speak, but pointed at the Han army's crossbow formation.

The ministers looked around and saw the Han army's crossbowman standing next to the powerful crossbow, drinking horse breasts while gnawing on the jerky meat, but not leaving. Many people even stared at the troops in the headquarters.

The purpose is obvious, which means that the Huns can rest if they want to rest, and the Han army can also take the opportunity to take a breath. If they want to change their formation, there is no way! If the Huns do not attack, the Han army will also attack.

This is not difficult to understand. The powerful crossbow formation is the most cost-effective to use against the troops of the Shanyu headquarters. If you exchange Junchen Shanyu and Zhou Yang, he will do the same.

Although it was resting, the Han army still monitored the Huns' every move. If you want to adjust your formation, don't think so!

The ministers gasped.

Junchen Shanyu smiled and said, "You are worried that the troops in our headquarters will suffer too much, right? Zhou Yang has set his sights on the elite troops in our headquarters. How can this afternoon, our Shanyu let the troops in our headquarters attack slowly."

Anyway, it’s a restraint and a death sentence. Why bother to be impatient? It’s the same as fighting slowly.

As long as it is dark and both armies are exhausted, they can quit and fight again tomorrow. Junchen Shanyu can re-arrange their troops and place their elite troops on both wings, and leave the death to other troops to do.

"As long as you break through the Han army's formation, break the crossbow formation, and grab the powerful crossbow, Chang'an will hold it in his palm." Yi Zhi's cold voice sounded, and in just one sentence, it outlined a heart-pounding blueprint.

The power of the crossbow formation was verified by the Huns as early as the era of King Wuling of Zhao. However, over the past hundred years, the crossbow formation has not been created. It is not that the Huns do not want it, but that without the technology, they cannot be created.

The power of the Han army's crossbow formation is not as powerful as that of the Qin army's crossbow formation back then. If it could be taken over, would there be more to say how beautiful the prospects are?

The ministers were excited and their decadent spirit was swept away. They shouted loudly, talking about a bright future.

However, an unexpected incident happened, disrupting the Huns' plans. Not only did the Huns' plans disrupt, but Zhou Yang's plans also disrupted.

In the Huns camp, only a few soldiers were patrolling.

There are only two or three thousand soldiers left, and they are all old and weak.

Two or three thousand soldiers were distributed in the huge camp, sparse and the camp was very empty.

The most conspicuous thing in the camp was not the tent after tent, but the jerky meat piled into mountains. The Junchen Shanyu ordered the jerky meat to be handed over and piled up together. He originally wanted to imitate Xiang Yu and burned it to inspire the morale of the army, but changed his mind at the last moment.

However, Junchen Shanyu did not say how to deal with jerky meat. The left-behind soldiers did not dare to take the initiative without authorization, and they still piled up the jerky meat together. However, they occasionally sent people to check and drive away the hungry eagles.

In a tabernacle, there were more than a dozen Hun soldiers sitting around, drinking horse breasts and eating jerky meat, very unhappy.

They are strong and powerful, and are completely different from the old and weak who are inspecting.

The most conspicuous one is a man with a cheeky face. His eyes are bright, like the scorching sun above the nine heavens, with a unique brilliance on his face.

"There are hukas coming!"

The big man raised his ears and reminded him softly. Although his words were soft, they had the power to shock people's eardrums. You can tell at first that this was a rare master.

The dozen people who were originally joking immediately closed their mouths. After passing the old formation, the sound of hooves came, and several riders passed outside the tent.

As soon as the Huns passed, the crowd started to joking and eat and drink again.

"Shima, why don't you let us follow us on the battlefield?" a man asked curiously.

If Zhou Yang was here, he could recognize him at a glance that this person was Li Fang.

That big man is naturally the famous hero.

"Whoever kills that eunuch is more important than helping the court defeat the barbarians?" Ju Meng's voice was very stable and his tone was not high, but everyone seemed to be talking in his ears.

The Bank of China said it was hateful and must be eliminated. However, it was not very important than defeating the Hun army.

"Why do you want to help the court defeat the Huns?" Li Fang asked hurriedly, his eyes very bright.

"We have been infiltrating the Huns camp for several days. However, the precautions for the castration were tight and we could not take action." Ju Meng felt a little regretful, and the topic changed, and it was a little higher: "Today, we will catch an excellent opportunity. Didn't the Huns pile up jerky meat together?"

Li Fang was enlightened: "Zhou Yang certainly didn't know about this. We will report it now. Zhou Yang sent an elite soldier to sneak in. He only needed a fire to burn the dried meat. Without the dried meat, what should the Huns eat? Is this war still necessary to fight?"

As soon as he said this, the crowd cheered in unison.

How important is it to burn the enemy's food and grass? It doesn't need to be said. Jerky meat is the food and grass of the Huns, and it is still piled up together. Where can I find such an opportunity?

"This is useless." Ju Meng waved his hand and stopped them from shouting: "It is difficult to send troops to the Huns to come in front of them. Unless they are ambushing nearby in advance."

"What should I do?" Li Fang was a little anxious.

"We will do this!" Ju Meng's words are not astonishing as they are.

"We?" Li Fang almost jumped up: "How much can we burn with just our handicraft?"

"Haha!" Ju Meng smiled happily: "This kind of thing, if it is wind, it is rain. One pound of burnt, the Huns thought they burned ten pounds. Ten pounds, the Huns thought they burned hundreds of pounds. After burning hundreds of pounds, the Huns thought they burned ten thousand pounds. They didn't need to burn them all, and they didn't even need half of them. They just need to make an opportunity."

With a move of his right hand, everyone came over and Ju Meng muttered for a while.

"That's great!" Li Fang and the others screamed excitedly, with endless excitement on their faces.

Zhou Yang stood up to the watchtower, and the soldiers pushed the winch. Zhou Yang slowly rose to the highest point, and the cloud car stopped.

Looking around, the Huns were still sitting on the ground in groups of three or five to rest, and some even slept with their heads in their arms.

It seems that Junchen Chan wanted to delay time. No wonder no one would be willing to send the most elite troops to die.

Zhou Yang's thoughts changed and he understood his intention. He smiled slightly, and wanted to delay time, but there was no way.

The flag in his hand was unfolded, and the war drums in the Han army pounded, trembling fiercely.

"The Han army is mighty!"
