Chapter 112 Hunting Ground
The strong wind mixed with snow particles hit the face, as if it was as painful as a stone. [The Hun men put their leather masks on their faces, revealing only a pair of greedy eyes.
Amu led his thousand cavalry along the Luliang Mountains. They had walked this path before. Now, I am naturally familiar with it when I walk it again.
There are wind and snow everywhere on the grassland, and I have nothing to do at home. The hay for winter is already prepared, and now is a good time to invade the south. In the warm winter nest, there are my dad, my mom and beautiful girls. They are all waiting for them to plunder the necessities of life from the Han territory.
"Master Qianqi, why don't we go to Yulin? It's faster for us to rob the place. The order of the Great Shanyu would not allow us to go deep into the Han territory."
The new Baiqi Wuzhu looked at the vastness of the world, and did not understand why Master Qianqi chose to break the sky. He had to go deeper into the Han realm and then cross the ridge in front of him to get the plain. It was only a hundred miles away from Taiyuan.
"What do you know? The delicious meat in Yulin has been gnawed by other people, and now it is full of hard bones. If you are willing to use your head to hit the city wall, you can go around Yulin. Maybe you will encounter any soldiers. Then you will see if they eat you or you will eat them."
The old-fashioned Baiqi Wensen scolded this new guy. To him, the young black pig was just a child, and he was as young as a wolf cub. He dared to bite him when he saw a leopard.
The Han army has made a lot of progress over the years, especially those chariots equipped with large chariots. The carriage boards are nailed with iron plates, and the Huns' bows and arrows are difficult to penetrate. However, the Han army hidden in the carriage can accurately shoot the Huns with crossbow arrows through shooting holes. After all, in a carriage without bumps, it is more accurate to shoot on horseback than riding on horses.
Several Han troops who came out to loot met the Han army's chariots, and in comparison, all suffered heavy losses. In the end, relying on the fast horse, the Han army could not catch up and fled.
"The Han army has gone to Hetao, and this Taiyuan must be empty. Our thousand people are not qualified to plunder Taiyuan, but the nearby villages and counties are not a problem. The Han people say that they should avoid the real and be empty, which is what Master Zhongxing Yue said. Today I will take you to avoid the real and be empty."
Amu's eyes seemed to hold up a village in the distance like a wolf. Although it was located at the foot of Luliang Mountain, it was rarely robbed by the Huns because it was very close to the Taiyuan stationed troops in Dayi.
Many residents were emitting smoke from the chimneys, and the curling smoke quickly disappeared in the wind and snow.
"Around the four sides, the black pig followed me. After entering the village, you will not be allowed to kill someone and let a living. Did you hear it?" Amu licked his lips excitedly.
Wensen knew that Amu wanted to slaughter the village again, so he quickly persuaded him: "Master Qianqi, Da Shanyu has issued an order to plunder the population as much as possible. We don't let us slaughter the village and kill people. If you do this, Da Shanyu will blame him..."
"You don't think about it. The mountain road is so steep. Why do we take away so many burdens? Besides, Taiyuan City is a big city. There are elite Han troops stationed inside. If one person leaves, they will go to report the news. At that time, will we throw away the spoils and escape, or will we be wiped out by the Han army here."
Amu's tone was harsh. He did not allow anyone to question his decision before the war.
"I don't mean that, I..."
"Don't talk too much, go west. When it's dark, attack."
Although Wutong was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey Amu's general order. The Huns were of strict hierarchy. If they dared to disobey Amu, they would chop off his head without hesitation.
But Amu didn't notice that someone was looking at their team on the top of the mountain in the wind and snow.
"It's the Huns, hurry up and report to the general. I'll continue watching here." The young scout touched the snow water on his face and ordered his subordinates who were younger than him.
Amu didn't know that there was a 20,000 army stationed fifty miles away. The general who led the team was Han Yan, the famous man in the eyes of the current emperor.
When Han Yan arrived in Taiyuan, he sent scouts and moved the army in Sun City to the foot of Luliang Mountain. The Han army now is no longer like before, and can only hide behind deep ditches and high walls. The use of four-wheeled carriages has given the Han army the capital to fight with the Xiongnu army. What's more, the people who have disturbed the border recently were small groups of Xiongnu, and at most they were just a team of thousands of people. His 20,000 people under him were not allowed to be eaten by the Xiongnu.
"The general's scout came to report that a team of Huns marched along the foot of Luliang Mountain. It seemed to be trying to attack Yaojia Village." The speaker was Su Jian, the captain of the Tunqi, and his son Su Wu was following behind him.
"Oh, Yaojia Village." Han Yan hurriedly searched for the location of Yaojia Village on the map. This map was asked for by Wei Qing, and the villages were marked with extremely detailed details.
"Here!" Su Jian didn't wait for Han Yan to find it, so he pointed out the location of Yaojia Village. He has been stationed in Taiyuan for many years and is very familiar with the nearby areas.
"So it's this place, so I'm easy to find." Han Yan muttered to hide his embarrassment.
"General, we will definitely be able to repel the Huns when we set out immediately. Otherwise, there will be more disasters in Yaojia Village." Su Rong knew that the Huns would attack as soon as they were at night. In fact, snowy nights are not much different from daytime. There will be strange red fields in the world. Very good view.
Han Yan had another plan in his mind, and it was not difficult to save Yaojia Village. The difficulty was to annihilate the Huns. This time he came to Taiyuan not to save a village. But to make gilded, it was a foregone conclusion that he was named a marquis after gaining military merits.
The best military merit is to kill this Xiongnu Thousand-man team. Now that we can only chase one out of one, it is absolutely difficult to achieve the goal of large-scale annihilation of the enemy. It seems that the villagers of Yaojia Village are going to sacrifice.
Han Yan had made up his mind and said to Su Jian: "Captain Su takes your troops to get stuck here. The Huns came out along the mountain path. There are not many paths that can be used with the steep Luliang Mountain. You should set off now and find this path to block it. This general wants to keep these Huns coming and going."
Su Jian looked at the place Han Yan pointed at, and felt that Han Yan was right. However, the people of Yao Village were in their lives, and if they were not saved at this time, I would probably be "General, then Yaojia Village..."
"It's okay, I will take the central army in person to set out. Annihilate the enemy in Yaojia Village. You just need to defend the Xiongnu's way back."
Seeing Han Yan say this, Su Jian thought he would rescue Yaojia Village. After saying goodbye, he took Su Wu away, rectified the army and rushed to Luliang Mountain Pass.
Han Yan was not in a hurry. According to the war reports reported from various places, the Huns usually rest for a while after plundering villages and towns. These Huns were rushing out of the Luliang Mountains in heavy snow, and they must be very tired. After plundering, they would definitely rest in Yaojia Village for one night. They took advantage of their rest and annihilate them in one fell swoop. Even if there were fish that escaped the net, they would probably not be able to pass Su Jian's level. This military merit would not be able to fly out of their palms even if they grew wings.
"Send the order, all officers above the military lieutenant will come to the Central Army tent." Han Yan looked at the map for a while and ordered to the Central Army lieutenant.
A chaotic night sky suddenly sounded a wolf howl, and it was so sarcastic and melodious that it spread from afar. The Huns who had already ambushed around raised their horse whip and urged their horses to rush into Yaojia Village from all directions.
A shrill scream followed, and Amuzhi's army was quite strict with his subordinates faithfully executed his orders. From the 80-year-old woman to the naughty boy in the cradle, they could not escape the knife, and the short and high-pitched screams sounded from time to time in the night sky.
Often, the screams were only half gone and silent, because the person who made the voice had already separated his body and head.
The only thing that was spared was the dogs in the village, and these guys barked wildly. But as long as they didn't bite the Huns, they would never kill any dog at will. Dogs are friends of the Huns. For them, the life of the Han people is not as good as that of the dogs.
Of course, women are left behind. Especially young women, they are often the group of people who are killed in the end.
Amu watched his subordinates waving their butcher knives, and sometimes blood would splatter on his face. The cold air in the heavy snow could not eliminate the pungent smell of blood.
Whenever I saw this scene, Amu's heart felt so painful that his whole body was tight. Perhaps the Han army also treated his family like this back then, treating his mother, sister, younger brother, sister, and his beloved Guer Biesu.
Where are you, Yiren in the sky? Do you know that your brother Amu is thinking about you. A sharp howl of a woman sounded in his ears, and the sound was like a bobcat with her tail stepped on. Her Hanfu had been torn apart, revealing the two white balls of flesh on her chest.
In a trance, Amu seemed to see Gu'er not speeding. The tall Amu rushed into the room and kicked the guy who was lying on the girl and gnawing wildly.
The Hun man had just raised the knife in his hand, but he found that it was his master Qianqi who kicked him away. His personal guard was glaring at him, and the big knife in his hand was already raised high. He hurriedly threw away the knife in his hand, knelt on the ground and let the guards punch and kick him, and then drag him out like a dead dog.
Amu looked straight at the half-naked girl. The Han girl was so scared that she was stunned. "Don't speed Gu'er, don't speed Gu'er!" Amu rushed up like the Huns just now.
The guards looked at each other one by one. They didn't understand what happened to Lord Qianqi, who never touched the Han girl. The girl didn't seem to be as beautiful as the country, so the guards retreated one after another and beat the unlucky Hun soldier bored.
After a while, the woman's loud screams came from the hut. The personal soldiers smiled wickedly, and from time to time kicked the unlucky guy with a bruised nose and swollen face on the ground.
Amu vented all his strength on the woman under his crotch, wishing he could smash the woman's body to the ground. The impact caused the woman to roar with a loud voice, and a shrill scream ended everything. A sharp dagger was inserted into the woman's towering chest, and Amu pulled out the dagger.
