14, counterattack
Xu Huang followed Yan Xing's patrol just after the patrol was completed. There was already chaos outside Yan Xing's camp. The heavy sound of horse hooves sounded everywhere, mixed with the sound of thick horns. The momentum was quite terrifying. The big bull's face changed slightly. He looked back and said to Yan Xing:
"Military waiter, the Huns' cavalry are here!"
"Don't panic. If the enemy does not attack, it will cause such a big noise. Most of the time it is bluffing, so there will definitely be not many people coming to ride!"
Yan Xing looked calm, waved his hand, turned his head and looked towards the direction of the camp gate. At this time, the shouts of killing sounds sounded violently from the camp gate. Yan Xing then turned his horse's head and said:
"Let's go and see what these Huns have, and dare to come and attack our camp!"
Seeing that Yan Xing had already set off, the personal guards around him quickly turned around and once again escorted Yan Xing in the center, and the group came towards the camp gate.
In the darkness of the camp gate, under the firelight outside the camp, there were shadowy Hun cavalry whipping and setting fires everywhere. The horses galloped in a big way, and it was impossible to tell how many Huns were coming.
On the contrary, because of the appearance of the Huns, some soldiers in front camp who were still running around had to avoid the trampling of the Huns' iron hooves and escape to the camp on Yanxing. The Huns also intended to drive the defeated soldiers to this side, snatch the horses and call, and chopped the Han soldiers who were behind and left behind. The cavalry team spread into arcs, like driving cattle and sheep while grazing on the grassland, driving the defeated soldiers to the camp on Yanxing.
"Tun General, will you shoot an arrow?"
Seeing the driven out of the scoundrels running towards their Yingpan gate in panic, Hutou looked a little nervous. He swallowed his saliva and pointed his bow at the front and ran. The scoundrel who had already entered the range of the scoundrel hesitated for a moment, and turned his head to ask Yan Xing, who was standing beside him.
"Let's wait until the Hun cavalry behind also enters the range and shoots again. Tell the brothers around you to raise their bows and shoot, and greet the cavalry behind the crowd!"
Yan Xing stared at the crowd that was approaching outside the camp with his eyes fixed on his eyes. His eyes were very good. He could see clearly the situation ahead in the flashing fire lights. Many of the fleeing soldiers had lost their clothes, running naked or with their feet. They were probably assaulted by cavalry in their sleep. The Huns in the rear followed closely behind, maintaining their horse speed, not being too slow, maintaining the cavalry's charge formation, ready to launch the next round of charge at any time.
Hutou quickly turned around and shouted to the soldiers holding bows and arrows on both sides, holding arrows and aiming at the people coming. The archers who received the order turned to the soldiers beside him. After a while, the archers behind the fences along the camp gate raised their bows and put arrows on, preparing to shoot, and shot them at the back row of the crowd.
"Send the arrow!"
Yan Xing had been estimating the distance of the back row of the running crowd. After estimating that the crowd in the back row had also entered the range, Yan Xing whispered beside Hutou. Wen Ling's Hutou people instantly released the bowstring at the adjusted angle, and the "buzzing" bowstring sound sounded. Several arrows roared into the air and landed in the back row of the running crowd.
The sharp cluster of arrows shot down from the air. Although some arrows were shot into the air and penetrated to the ground, some of them only shot the running soldiers, and one arrow happened to hit the mount of a Hun cavalry who was driving the crowd. The horse that was caught in the arrow neighed and raised its hooves. The Huns who could not control it were accidentally thrown out of the horse. The seriously injured mount rushed to the side for a while and knocked over several people before they fell to the ground, hitting a pile of burning tents, causing Mars to scatter.
"I'm beaten!"
Hutou raised his arm and said with a smile. The arrow he happened to hit, but it was enough for him to show off. Yan Xing took all this into his eyes and immediately ordered it.
"Everyone is out!"
"Everyone is out!"
"Everyone is out!"
The soldiers around him conveyed his orders loudly. Wherever the sound went, the fences along the camp gate heard a "buzzing" sound of bowstring vibrating sound. A wave of arrows flew into the air with the sound of bowstrings and fell into the back row of the crowd.
The arrows shot down, and the people in the back row suddenly screamed as they were overturned. The scattered soldiers who fell to the ground were startled to feel excited and did not dare to run towards the camp. Instead, they turned to avoid the iron hooves of the Hun cavalry and fled to both sides.
Although not many Huns were shot in the arrows, after suffering this wave of arrow rain, several cavalry were shot down. At this time, another sound of arrows breaking through the air, bluffing. The few Hun cavalry had to urge their mounts when they heard the sound, and followed them back and began to retreat on both sides.
Most of the defeated soldiers behind scattered, and the running crowd suddenly became evacuated. Only the defeated soldiers in front were still running, hoping to escape to this fairly complete camp, get the protection of the soldiers behind the fence, and avoid these nightmare Hun cavalry.
"Brothers in the front camp, there are no arrows on the battlefield. Those who want to survive should quickly escape to the open spaces on both sides of the camp—"
Yan Xing looked at the fences near the fence and shouted loudly, and the soldiers beside him also shouted to the fences outside the camp. At the same time, the scattered arrows fell on their heads.
The soldiers in the former camp who had finally escaped from the camp immediately started to curse, but now it is important to escape, and there is no time to argue with the generals and officials in the camp who are unwilling to shelter them. Amid the cursing, the defeated soldiers scattered to both sides. After the people and horses ran and trampled on the open space outside the camp, it was in chaos, but as the crowd scattered, it was empty again.
The two centurions under Xubugen were driven away by the opportunity of chaos in the soldiers and attempting to break through the camp of Yanxing by the soldiers. They were about to circle around and attack the granary and supplies of the Han army's rear camp, and they happened to pass through this camp stuck on the main road.
The two of them had limited troops and did not dare to attack the camp where Xu Kun was next to them. Seeing that Yan Xing's camp was not big, they wanted to drive away the defeated soldiers and use the chaotic crowd to break through the camp gate. Then the Xiongnu cavalry who were waiting for an opportunity to assault the attack came to a round of charge, and they could take down the camp with a small number of camps without having to go around and break through the camp and take the camp where food and supplies were piled up in the rear.
But unexpectedly, although this camp looked small, its troops were quite powerful. Not only did it set up a timely formation to prevent the attack of their Hun cavalry, but it also responded to Youzhang and acted ruthlessly. It forced the Huns to drive away the Huns' plan to drive the defeated soldiers to attack the camp, and also let the Huns' cavalry who were preparing to take the opportunity to attack and seize the camp suffered a loss.
The two centurions who suffered a small loss held a breath of anger in their hearts. Since they followed Subugen to camp, they had been unobstructed along the way. Wherever they passed, the Han army was invincible. Unexpectedly, they fell into a fight in front of this small camp. The two were joining forces and gathering their cavalry together, and immediately met and discussed whether to take the cavalry to seek weak mouth from the side and rush for another wave.
Before the decision was made, the nearby large camp plate had already sounded golden drums, and the sound of people running and horses shaking the four fields, as if a large group of people were about to go out of the camp to fight. Soon, the small camp plate also sounded golden drums, and the momentum was also strong, and the sound of people running and horses was running continuously, as if they were about to rush out of the camp to fight to the death.
The two centurions had not many people under them. They were entirely relied on the sudden attack of the Han army and were caught off guard and drove away the scattered front camp soldiers to the inside of the Han army camp. Because the camp of the central army was attacked by Xubugen and his men, and the other Hun cavalry set fires everywhere, causing a lot of momentum. The Han army battalions, which lacked coordinated command and were not sure about the enemy situation, could only temporarily close the camp and defend themselves, which made the bluffing Hun cavalry so rampant.
Now that he heard that the troops and horses were about to come out of the camp in these two camps, he felt that the momentum he had created had been revealed. When the two centurions decided, the situation had turned around and became unfair to the Huns. He quickly commanded the remaining troops and turned around and fled to Subuzhong, who besieged the Han army's military camp.
When Yan Xing arrived at the camp gate, it happened that Yan Xing and his soldiers used bows and arrows to repel the first wave of attacks that drove the Huns to drive them away. He also bluffed the Huns. He retreated quickly if it was unfavorable. He was planning to mobilize troops and horses, and then he pushed down the fences from both sides of the camp gate and took the opportunity to fight out, and captured all the Huns who had leaked their momentum. The sound of advancing golden drums sounded at the camp on Xu Kun's side.
This is a signal of a joint march that the two sides have agreed to. Perhaps Xu Kun is afraid that he will make mistakes on his side, or perhaps Xu Kun has seen through the bluffing posture of the Huns. Yan Xing then lit up Ganling, Ma Lin and others who had gathered to wait for the troops, moved the chariot behind the door, and rushed out with the sound of the advance of the golden drum.
He looked back at Xu Huang who was following him. At this time, the young man also held a spear and jumped forward. Although he had just passed the battle formation, he also faintly exuded a brave and confident style of brave general on his body.
Yan Xingzhan smiled and said to Xu Huang:
"Gongming, dare to follow me to kill the enemy!"
When Xu Huang heard Yan's words on the horse, he was even more radiant. His tiger's eyes burst out with brilliance. He responded loudly, jumped onto the horse and held a spear, and guarded Yan Xing. Yan Xing looked at his agile back, laughed loudly, and shouted loudly to the soldiers who were rushing to the forefront:
"The athletes in the army, kill the barbarians!"
"Kill Hu, kill Hu!"
Chapter completed!
