The Wuhuan people were originally lax in military discipline, and they were concentrating on attacking Liucheng.
Just being attacked by Zhang Liao and other thousands of cavalry, they fell into chaos!
For a time, the commander could not find his own army, and ordinary soldiers could not find the commander either!
Zhang Liao seized this opportunity and fought bravely with Cao Chun, Xian Yufu and others, beating the Wuhuan people back steadily!
However, although the Wuhuan people were in chaos, their numbers were there after all.
Good times don't last long.
Cao's army, which was dominated by cavalry, was gradually surrounded by the Wuhuan people after fighting for a while.
The sword in Zhang Liao's hand flew up and down, cutting down several enemy soldiers in a row!
He panted to regain his strength and looked around.
I saw a vast battlefield. Except for Cao Chun and Xian Yufu beside me, all I saw were Wuhuan soldiers!
"General Wenyuan, this is not good!"
Cao Chun rushed over and shouted loudly.
Needless to say, Zhang Liao also understood this.
Their charge just now was successful, but they just took advantage of the Wuhuan people's formation being out of order.
If the Wuhuan people were given some more time, with Cao's army's small strength, I'm afraid they would all be trapped here!
Thinking of this, Zhang Liao looked at the Wuhuan King's flag not far away.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice,
"I also ask General Zihe to clear the way for me. Let's see how I capture the enemy's spirit and destroy their morale!"
"good!"
Cao Chun nodded in agreement, and immediately commanded the tiger and leopard cavalry beside him to charge forward!
Tadun Shanyu was not a fool. He could see at a glance that Cao Jun was coming for him.
"Quick, stop them!"
The surrounding Wuhuan cavalry, under his command, rushed towards the tiger and leopard cavalry in a swarm!
Although their individual combat capability is far inferior to that of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, fortunately there are many people, and they are able to desperately block the impact of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!
However, this is enough for Zhang Liao!
He roared angrily, urged his mount, and rushed out from behind Cao Chun and Hubao!
I saw horses like flying shadows and spears like thunderbolts.
This sudden change caught the Wuhuan people completely off guard.
By the time they reacted, Zhang Liao had already chopped down more than a dozen Wuhuan people and rushed to be more than ten steps away from Tadun Shanyu!
Tadun Shanyu was shocked and turned pale.
"Kill him for me!"
The remaining dozen or so royal guards on the left and right all rushed forward, waving their weapons.
But Zhang Liao showed no fear on his face, riding on horseback and slashing left and right with his long sword!
Although the royal guards were elites from various tribes, they were not enough in front of Zhang Liao.
In just a few breaths, there were more than a dozen corpses on the ground.
Zhang Liao also took advantage of the situation and rushed in front of Tadun Shanyu, and the sword in his hand had already struck at Tadun Shanyu!
Although Tadun Shanyu was the commander of Wuhuan, he was not timid in fighting.
Seeing Zhang Liao's attack, instead of running away, he raised his scimitar with ferocity and tried to fight to the death!
"clang!"
When the two weapons collided violently, Tadun Shanyu realized that he was somewhat ignorant of the heights of the world.
He felt a numbness in his arm and secretly complained in his heart.
This guy is so brave!
Tadun Shanyu felt timid in his heart, and his movements slowed down by half a beat!
Zhang Liao noticed this keenly, so he swung his long knife and slashed it diagonally towards Tadun Shanyu's ribs.
Just when Tadun Shanyu stretched out his sword and tried to block it, Zhang Liao suddenly raised the long sword and swung it sideways!
This sudden change caught Tadun Shanyu off guard!
With just a "click", his huge head rolled to the ground!
Zhang Liao picked up Tadun Chanyu's head with the tip of his knife and shouted sharply at the Wuhuan people,
"Tadun is dead, why don't you surrender quickly?!"
Although most Wuhuan people can't understand Chinese, they all recognize Tadun Chanyu!
When they saw Tadun Chanyu being beheaded, the Wuhuan people were instantly in an uproar!
You must know that Shanyu is more than just a leader to them.
Wuhuan people believe in heaven and earth ghosts and gods, and Chanyu is the incarnation of the gods.
Now that even the gods have been beheaded by the Han people, how can we still fight this battle?
Seeing that Zhang Liao was so brave and killed Tadun Shanyu directly, Cao Chun was so excited that he immediately ordered Cao Jun, who was proficient in Wuhuan language, to loudly announce the news of Tadun's death!
Yang Ling slaughtered Liucheng and built Jingguan with the heads of Wuhuan people.
They even destroyed their altars and dug up their ancestral graves.
While the Wuhuan people were angry at Yang Ling, they were also a little afraid in their hearts.
I was ambushed today. I was originally uneasy. After knowing that Tadun was killed, I completely lost my fighting spirit!
Cao Chun, Xian Yufu and others seized the opportunity and fought hard!
For a moment, the Wuhuan people were chased and ran away, and collapsed instantly!
Seeing this situation, Yang Ling on the city wall couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
This Tadun still failed to escape the fate of history, and was still killed by Zhang Liao's formation!
…
Following the death of Chanyu Tadun, nearly 100,000 Wuhuan people were leaderless.
Yang Ling commanded Cao's army and launched a fierce attack on them!
The Wuhuan people were defeated and could no longer form effective resistance.
Most of the Wuhuan people fled in all directions, and the rest chose to surrender to Cao Jun!
This battle started when the Golden Crow rose in the east and ended when the sun set in the west.
After counting, the Wuhuan people suffered nearly 20,000 casualties and more than 10,000 prisoners. Dozens of Wuhuan nobles, including Tadun Shanyu, were killed!
This battle can be described as a complete victory!
That night.
The lights in Liucheng are brightly lit.
Yang Ling specially ordered a banquet to reward the soldiers of the three armies!
"Today's great victory is all thanks to the bravery of all the soldiers to kill the enemy!"
Yang Ling picked up the wine glass and laughed,
"Let me toast you all first!"
After saying this, he drank it all in one gulp.
Everyone did not dare to neglect and drank all the wine in their hands.
After putting down the wine glass, Tian Yu said with a smile,
"The military advisor is too humble. Speaking of which, it's you who is the one who plans the strategy!"
"That's right. Without a military advisor, I'm afraid we still wouldn't be able to reach Liucheng."
Yan Rou agreed.
The rest of the people also nodded in agreement and looked at Yang Ling with respect.
If Yang Ling hadn't found Tian Chou and rushed thousands of miles from the ancient road to Liucheng, how could there have been today's great victory?
After everyone joked and laughed again, Tian Yu said softly,
"Now that Tadun Shanyu is dead, I wonder what the military advisor plans to do with the Wuhuan people?"
Yang Ling thought for a while and said to Zhou Cang,
"Go and bring the floor class up."
Zhou Cang took the order and left. After a while, he returned with a young man from Wuhuan.
"Lou Ban... met... met the envoy of the Celestial Dynasty..."
Lou Ban saluted Yang Ling with a fearful look on his face.
His father Qiu Liju was originally a Chanyu of Wuhuan in western Liaoning.
But when he was about to die, considering his young age, he asked his nephew Tadun to become the chanyu on his behalf.
But I didn't expect that Tadun was extremely brave and resourceful. In just a few years, he could twist the scattered Wuhuan into a rope.
