"Looking to borrow troops from me?"
Delivered to Li Duwei Mansion.
Zhang Qi looked at Huo Qubing in surprise.
The latter nodded and held his hand.
"Yes, Captain, my uncle sent me here just to borrow troops.
Now that the Huns have penetrated deeply, His Majesty has secretly ordered me to fight against the Huns in Beiping! "
"Really."
Zhang Qi's eyes moved slightly, and he instantly realized that Liu Che was using the people of the border counties as bait to capture the hundreds of thousands of Huns who entered the customs in one fell swoop.
With a serious look on his face, Zhang Qi stood up: "Wang Li!"
"The general is here!"
"Did you hear that?"
"I heard."
"Okay! This time General Wei Qing borrows troops, you will be the main general, leading three thousand cavalry and two thousand chariots to reinforce Youbeiping, and follow Captain Huo's orders."
"The last general takes command!"
After giving the instructions, Zhang Qi looked at Huo Qubing with a smile: "I'll lend you five thousand troops. I won't have any more. There are many places in Liao that need to be defended."
"Thank you, Lieutenant, and I will understand!"
Huo Qubing was very grateful for Zhang Qi's ability to borrow troops. Five thousand soldiers was already a considerable force, and he was very satisfied.
Not long after, Wang Li, after having a secret talk with Zhang Qi, led 5,000 Liaodong Army soldiers and 800 Yu Linlang who accompanied Huo Qubing straight to Youbeiping.
When they arrived at Youbeiping and repaired, the Huns also happened to enter the shooting range of the Pinggang vehicle formation.
"Enemy attack!!"
"Fire the arrow!!"
The Han generals shouted.
Countless crossbow bolts were fired, and the Huns cavalry stopped sideways with their bows and horses in hand, and launched a counterattack.
Although this Han army was different from the previous Han armies in other border counties, the Huns were not afraid. After being shot down by more than a dozen people, he began to counterattack.
The Huns had experience with the Han army's chariot formations. They sent their knights with the best riding skills in the army to advance and retreat constantly, attracting the Han army's attention and consuming crossbow bolts.
Although the vehicle formation is safe, it has a very critical weakness when facing the Huns, and that is the amount of ammunition.
Once the crossbow arrows are used up, when faced with the Huns, who are very good at shooting, even if they have a bunker, they will be gradually eaten away by continuous shooting.
Not to mention that once casualties occur in the army and morale collapses, the vehicle formation will self-defeat.
Wei Qing doesn't know this?
No, he knew that the car array deployed in Pinggang was just a way for him to attract the attention of the Huns.
As early as after receiving the imperial edict, he had already divided his troops, and the purpose of doing so was naturally.
"Report!"
"Great Chanyu, a large number of Han troops appeared on the north side!"
"Report!"
"Great Chanyu, a large number of Han troops appeared on the south side!"
The previous deployment was for encirclement.
The flag of the Han Dynasty was flying.
The stage belonging to Wei Qing has begun!
As an important border defense county, Youbeiping has no less than 30,000 to 40,000 border guards all year round. In addition to the 20,000 new soldiers brought by Wei Qing, the 60,000 Han troops woven hundreds of thousands of Huns cavalry into a net from three directions.
Surround three and one!
Now, it depends on who cherishes his life more.
"attack!"
In the middle of the Han army, Wei Qing waved his command flag, and then the flag waved, spreading news around.
"Warriors of the grassland, let these Han lambs see the bravery of the grassland people!"
"Kill the enemy!"
Under the same conditions, the confrontation of the army is the confrontation of morale. Yi Zhixie did not say anything about retreat, but organized an attack at the first opportunity.
The Xiongnu Ten Thousand Cavalry System required that his orders only need to be issued to the leaders of each department, and the rest depends on the response of the Xiongnu kings.
Youbeiping became lively, and blood and fighting became the main theme here.
With property in their possession, the greedy Huns showed amazing fighting will.
In the Han army, the good men who Wei Qing spent two years training now showed a completely different desire to fight than the regular border guards.
They were stable, orderly, and did not have too much fear in their hearts when facing the Huns.
The confrontation continued, with arrows coming from both sides.
The Huns' tactic was not to engage in direct confrontation, but to use bows and arrows to consume the effective strength of the Han army.
Under the pressure of arrows, the Han army could only stop and exchange fire with the Huns.
The two armies fought for about ten minutes, and the total casualties were only a few thousand.
But the consumption of arrows was astonishingly high.
The rear of the Chinese army.
Huo Qubing arrived and climbed up to gaze at the battlefield, having a clear view of the stalemate on the battlefield.
"General Wang Li, what will happen to him if the captain is here?"
Huo Qubing glanced at Wang Li beside him and asked.
Wang Li looked at the situation on the battlefield and smiled: "If the captain is here, he will lead us to attack from behind the military formation, and use the cover of the military formation to go straight to the Huns' tent."
"No, that's right there."
Wang Li was already very familiar with the Huns. He saw where the Chanyu was at a glance. Although he couldn't see clearly from a distance, but judging from the density of people and the movements of the Huns in all directions, he reached out and pointed. refer to.
Huo Qubing's face turned red with excitement. He took out the supervisor's token from his waist and handed it to a Yulin Lang.
"The matter of borrowing soldiers to cure his illness has been completed. Will Lang Guan go to return to his uncle or come with me?"
Habayashi looked at the young but bold young man in front of him and laughed: "The supervisor's token is in your hand. Until the supervisor comes back to life, the Habayashi army will obey your orders."
He had already guessed what Huo Qubing wanted to do. As the absolute elite of the Han army, none of these Yulin Langs were afraid. On the contrary, everyone looked relaxed.
For a period of time, their Majesty suffered huge checks and balances in the court, and was unable to realize his ambitions. He had to hunt and play in Shanglin Garden every day.
But it was also during that time that their Majesty led the Yulin Lang who guarded the emperor and Wei Qing and a group of young generals to conduct daily drills with the Xiongnu as the imaginary enemy.
Therefore, when it comes to theoretical knowledge about the Xiongnu, Habayashi Lang is the top expert in the Han Dynasty. Unfortunately, their duty is to protect the emperor and cannot be transferred to the front line.
Given the opportunity this time, they will naturally not give up.
"good!"
Huo Qubing was even more excited.
"General Wang Li, what about you?"
One last question.
Wang Li chuckled, appreciating this young man's courage even more in his heart.
"The captain asked me to obey your orders, so I don't dare to ask for your ears!"
"Haha! That's great, gentlemen."
"Wait a minute."
Wang Li stopped Huo Qubing, who was about to give orders, and shook his head slightly. He was still too inexperienced, so he whispered in Huo Qubing's ear.
Huo Qubing was a little embarrassed, but he still listened to the opinion and immediately gave the order.
"Li Ze, chariots are not as fast as cavalry, you guys go first!"
"promise!"
A Yulin Lang leader named Li Ze accepted the order and led two thousand chariots and soldiers ahead.
Taking advantage of the cover of the military formation, the chariots and soldiers advanced rapidly from the rear.
After about a quarter of an hour, Huo Qubing glanced at Wang Li, who nodded.
A ferocious smile appeared on his face and he shouted loudly.
"Gentlemen! It's time to make great achievements!"
"Follow me and crush the enemy army!"
