"General Meng, you see, the only way to cross such a fast river is this bridge. In other words, this is the only way to Punta City!"
Ying Feiyu stretched out his little hand and pointed at the bridge not far away.
"That's right!"
Meng Tian nodded, but still looked puzzled.
"We can indeed have some advantages in the city, but the terrain of Punta City is open. No one knows from which direction the Huns army will attack the city after crossing the river. It is extremely unfavorable for laying mines!"
In addition to artillery, another key to Ying Feiyu's victory is mines.
Setting up an ambush with mines and taking them by surprise can produce better results!
There are four gates in Punta City. No one knows where the Huns army came from. They can't lay mines all over the city in the east, west, north and south, right?
"Then... the young master means to set up an ambush here?"
Zhang Han understood immediately.
Since coming to the Huns, he has been leading the artillery to lay mines, and when he heard that he was about to set up an ambush, his eyes immediately lit up!
It's so satisfying to watch the enemy fall into the trap set by his leader!
"That's right, the Huns have suffered such a big loss. They all hate us to the core. If they want to skin us, they will definitely attack us fiercely. Choose this shortest road into Punta City. You can lay mines here. Setting up artillery in the valley and holding them in the valley and bombarding them is equivalent to not having a dog to fight with and not running away!"
Xiao Zhengtai briefly stated his plan.
"Okay, young master, don't worry!"
Zhang Han understood immediately, showed a proud smile, rode back, and summoned artillery to set up an ambush.
"The Xiongnu hastily mobilized its troops. There must be many troops within the tribe that have not yet been assembled. After the Xiongnu army is destroyed, we will dismantle the 300,000 troops, divide them into ten groups, and devour the entire Xiongnu army!"
After giving the order to set up an ambush, Koshota continued.
"good!"
With the victory in the last battle, Meng Tian and his generals could only nod although they were worried.
After all, he is the real coach!
"Let's go back!"
After surveying the terrain, Xiao Shota felt that this was the most suitable place. After deploying it, he returned the same way and discussed the attack route after destroying the army.
Although the land of the Xiongnu is barren, with only deserts and grasslands, the territory is vast. If you want to completely wipe out the entire Xiongnu army, you still need to carry out carpet-like cleaning. This cannot be explained in a few words and requires detailed discussion!
…
Only one day later, an army of 300,000 soldiers sent by the Huns had arrived at a tribe near Punta.
Among these 300,000 people, nearly 100,000 are criminals in prison, and some are common people from various places!
There is no way, the 80,000 people who have gathered have been wiped out by the Qin army, leaving only a few hundred thousand.
Some people still need to be stationed in the royal city to prevent sneak attacks. In desperation, they had to temporarily gather people and criminals from all over the country and promised them that as long as the battle was over, the people would get generous rewards and the criminals would be released without charge. Only then did they gather these three people. One hundred thousand people!
The general leading the army was Moge. Due to the strength of his troops, he was not yet confident that he would win this battle. But when he saw the Qin army leaving Punta City and all standing five miles outside the ferry, his confidence suddenly increased!
Before that, he was worried that the Qin army would stick to Punta and give them a condescending attack.
The city wall is strong and difficult to attack, and it will probably consume a lot of troops and time!
Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Qin actually sent an idiot commander to go on an expedition. The city wall was not guarded, and he actually let these troops come to the river to confront him head-on.
In addition, they also abandoned the vantage point on the other side of the bridge and retreated five miles.
Even a new recruit who has just entered the military camp should know that when the army is crossing the river, it is the best time to make a move.
The width of the bridge is limited, and not many people can cross it at one time. Just hold the other side!
Unexpectedly, the Qin army actually gave them a five-mile gap. Could it be that they didn't want to take advantage of others' danger and let them cross the river safely before engaging in a head-on confrontation?
"Humph! They Qin people just love to do these fancy things. Since they care about face and don't want to take advantage of others, let's not be polite and just kill with me and drive these two-legged sheep out of our Huns' territory!"
Mog snorted twice, took out the scimitar from his waist, raised it above his head, and shouted loudly.
After the order was given, the archers took the lead in crossing the stone bridge and safely reached the other side. They lined up in a defensive posture to protect the Huns army that was about to cross the river and prevent sneak attacks.
Until all 30,000 archers crossed the river safely, there was no movement from the Qin army, which made Mog even more convinced of his idea.
It's just that the Qin army is being hypocritical and won't take advantage of it, so they have to fight hard!
This is definitely a good thing for the Huns!
"Hehe! The Emperor of Qin actually sent a fool here...! Charge with me!"
General Mog showed a proud smile, clamped the horse's belly, and took the lead in crossing the river.
"Kill...!"
The cavalry behind him immediately responded, shaking the scimitar in his hand, and followed Mog and rushed towards the other side of the river.
More than 200,000 cavalrymen rushed towards the Qin army five miles away with red eyes, as fast as lightning. At such a speed, those Qin troops would be crushed and dispersed by the horses' hooves, and would lose their combat effectiveness!
What black balls did the soldiers who escaped from Rueca say they had?
Now it seems that it is pure nonsense!
They had rushed to the other side of the river, and no ghosts or gods were seen to help them. The black ball exploded!
When he returns to the royal city, Shanyu must kill those guys who are alarmist and shake the morale of the army!
"Alas...! The young master is really good at predicting things, and he got it right this time!"
Zhang Han shook his head helplessly, but his face was full of smiles.
They had no doubts about Ying Feiyu's battle plan, but there was a little hiccup when setting up the ambush!
He led the artillery to bury the mines at the bridgehead, so that they would be triggered after the Xiongnu army crossed the river, and the first person to be killed would definitely be the general leading the army.
Without a leader, the army will be in chaos. When the time comes, they will lead the Qin army across the bridge and kill them without leaving a single piece of armor behind!
However, Ying Feiyu disagreed and forced them to retreat three miles, saying that once the first to cross was not the general but some infantry, these Huns would find that there was an ambush and would not dare to cross the bridge, losing their best chance of fighting!
For this reason, they also made a bet of one thousand gold to see whether the general of the Xiongnu army would cross the river first or whether he would order other infantry to cross first!
Now it seems that his thousand gold pieces are definitely lost!
Who would have thought that this general who led the army was so cunning, even though his Qin army was so far away, he would be so cautious and let the archers cross the river first to protect the army behind him!
"Light the torches and be ready at any time!"
Seeing that the Xiongnu army finally launched a charge, Zhang Han gave the order.
"yes!"
After receiving the order, the artillery immediately went to prepare.
