After the order was given to Dugen to set off, the leader wore iron armor and held a knife in his hand. Only his slightly pale face was exposed. He rode the famous snow horse and patrolled back and forth by the river. In fact, he had a noble status. For example, he no longer needs to personally charge into battle, but he still acts like a general at all times, knowing that the strength of his warriors will be doubled as a result.
The envoy was sent in the early morning. He estimated that his brother received the news in the evening and set out in the middle of the night. He attacked nearly a hundred miles overnight. When he launched the attack, it should be around the time of Yin. With this in mind, he pillowed Tie Zhou rested under a tree. The soldiers all loved Kuitou, and they knew that he had injured his vertebrae in the battle with Jian Man the year before last. He could not sleep without listening to the wind every day, so they formed a row in front of Kuitou to block him from the river wind. Coming moisture.
When it was Yin time, Kuitou woke up naturally. He obviously slept very soundly that night, and he was full of energy when he woke up. He asked the soldiers around him: "What's happening on the south bank?" He also thought: After all, Bu Dugen was deep into the enemy's territory, so it was understandable that his speed was a little slow. He immediately cheered up and gave an order to his followers: Let all the ministers prepare to cross the river. When the fire lights up on the south bank, the whole army will cross the river.
In fact, everyone was doubtful and said privately: It would be difficult to penetrate the enemy's rear in this way without the blessing of the gods. Bu Dugen marched in the dark, fearing that he had lost his way in the ravine of the Xihe River and did not know how to follow the army. When the sky gradually turned blue from darkness, everyone felt that the matter was hopeless, but Shuluo Yu Qiguang suddenly squinted and said: "The fire is on! The fire is on!"
Everyone heard the words and went to see, there were indeed dots of brilliance emerging from the darkness on the south bank, gradually spreading and expanding in the sky. Everyone saw dots of black shadows moving around, and the sound of killing warriors seemed to ring in their ears. The leader silently recited a sentence in Xianbei dialect: "The living live forever, the dead rest in peace", and then ordered his attendants to blow the general attack call, ordering the entire army to cross the river at this time and respond to the winning troops on the south bank.
At the sound of the trumpet, the soldiers tied one end of the rope to the saddle and the other end to the raft, and several horses dragged it to the river bank in parallel. The water outside Shalingdu was light and rippled. They untied the rope at a very fast speed and pushed the raft into the river. A raft could accommodate two people and one horse, so one person supported the raft and the other stretched the bow. Three thousand Xianbei warriors were on the Mi River. Amidst the sound of splashing water, I took the lead to lean towards the south bank.
Their initial target was the Huns on the right, and naturally there were four thousand Huns soldiers keeping vigil on the south bank. The leader was Su Ji Pu Nu, the Marquis of Su Ji Gudu. He saw a fire coming from behind and a raft coming from the other side. , how do you not know that the decisive battle has come? He had no choice but to draw his sword and said, "How can a Xianbei dog cross the river?" He could only send people to inform Liu Bei of the news, while organizing his troops to go to the river bank to fight.
At this time, the sky was just getting dark. The Xiongnu soldiers held torches, drew their horned bows, and fired arrows into the hazy sky. They were not sure of the distance and strength. Where could the arrows hit? In all likelihood, there was nothing, but instead there was the sound of water gushing into the water, causing the Xianbei people to laugh.
The Xianbei people looked at the torches and knew the position of the Huns. They opened their bows and fired, and the arrows were almost sure to hit. Seeing this, Pu Nu of Suji ordered his tribe to throw down the torches, but it was too late. The river was about a hundred feet wide, and the Xianbei people could not support it. When the raft was more than ten feet away from the shore, the river was less than four feet deep. The Xianbei people jumped on their horses to the river. More than a thousand knights stepped on the water and gathered together. The leader was Shuluo Yu Qiguang.
Shuluo Yu Qiguang put on his black armor, wore a blue dagger on his head, held a short halberd in each hand, and rode in front of the other riders. The river water was cold and up to his ankles. He asked loudly: "Maybe you can kill thieves in the water?!" The knights all shouted loudly three times, and then they gathered together to kill the Huns on the shore.
Su Ji Pu Nu was furious when he saw this, and said to his left and right: "Xianbei thinks we have no Xiongnu?" He also ordered the soldiers along the coast to gather in formation and hold their spears high to meet them. Xianbei's horses were walking in the water, and the river bank was slippery. , the Xianbei knights were unable to speed up the charge. As soon as they rushed onto the sandy ground on the river bank, Suji Punu came up with a spear. The Xianbei knights were few in number. After several fights, they could not withstand the arrow rain from the rear formation, but were forced into the river. .
When Shuluo Yu Qiguang saw this, he smiled and said: "I know how to fight, I wonder if I have the courage?" Then he asked the cavalry to stand side by side with him, and threw the iron halberd in his hand towards the spear formation. The iron halberd weighed eighty kilograms. , hit the soldiers, breaking the chest, abdomen and ribs with one blow. Shuluo Yu Qiguang threw out all the four iron halberds he carried, forcing the gun array to open a gap. He immediately mounted his horse, drew his sword, and rushed into the army formation from the gap. The Su people had no enemy against him. He killed seven or eight people to the left, then turned back to the right and killed about ten people. His whole body was stained with blood. , all Su people were afraid, saying it was a blood-stained tiger, and it was just washed away by him.
Seeing that his followers were unable to stop him, Suji Pu Nu was also very anxious. He pointed at Shuluo Yu Qiguang, turned to his attendants and said, "This man must be one of the few warriors in Xianbei. As long as he shoots this man, he can kill him." Retreat the enemy!" Then he ordered his troops to shoot arrows in response. Suji Punu himself was also a famous archer among the Xiongnu. He opened his three-stone bow, mounted an arrow with a red-feathered three-edged arrow, and aimed at the bright green Douchun in the crowd. He let go and saw the red arrow-feathered arrow. Shaking on the back of the bag.
Before Su Ji Pu Nu could laugh out loud, he saw the man who was hit by the arrow saying angrily: "Who shot me!" Qi Guang looked around in the crowd with the arrow feathers on his head, and saw Su Ji Pu Nu holding a bow with him. Looking at each other, he immediately got rid of the powerful enemy, thinking that Su Ji Pu Nu was coming to kill him. It was the first time that the Su people saw a warrior who could fight with arrows, and they all changed their words: This is not a blood-stained tiger, this is a man-eating ghost!
Su Ji Pu Nu was also frightened. Seeing Shu Luo Yu Qi Guang killing him in front of him, he did not dare to fight anymore and just wanted to escape on his horse. Shu Luo Yu Qi Guang slashed the horse's legs with his sword, and Su Ji Pu Nu immediately fell off his horse. , rolled on the ground and looked up at Qi Guang. Qi Guang was holding the knife at an angle, with blood dripping all over his body. He smiled at him and said, "You were very accurate, and you hit me in the forehead. Unfortunately, you don't have enough strength. Take this arrow back." stop!"
Suji Punu heard this and took off the arrow. He saw a small hole between his eyebrows. He needed three more points to kill him. When Shuluo Yu Qiguang saw him lying on the ground in a daze, he couldn't help laughing. Then he chopped off his head with a knife and hung it on the saddle. The Xianbei knights followed, and the sound of "Wan Sheng" could not be heard.
But Su Ji Pu Nu finally bought enough time for the Han army. Shu Luo and Qi Guang charged and killed this group. For half an hour, they were unable to fight anymore. They could only wait quietly on the river bank for subsequent reinforcements to cross the river. , Ou Tuoquan and others have summoned 30,000 soldiers from the camp and lined up on the south bank to prepare for the battle with Xianbei.
But for the Han army at this time, Bu Dugen was the one that needed to be solved urgently. They set fire to the rear camp, and the fire had spread to the central army. For the soldiers on the left who were facing the enemy, they did not know how many enemy troops there were, and no one had anyone to direct them to gather to fight against the enemy. Some generals thought that a big battle was imminent, so the army bombed the camp and tried to He went directly into the camp to appease the soldiers, but was bumped into by a Xianbei warrior and lost his head for no apparent reason.
The first person to react was Hudu Gudu Hou Hudu Xiuli. There was a thin stream flowing through his camp. He ordered his men to soak the wood for the camp in the running water and then pile it to the place where the fire was about to spread. After two moments of repetition, the fire finally stopped spreading towards the Chinese army.
Seeing that the fire was extinguished here, the defeated soldiers in the rear camp rushed towards this place without shouting. But the Xianbei knights followed. Hudu Xiuli killed several people, but he still couldn't stop the deserters from collapsing, but he couldn't retreat here. If he retreated, he would most likely extinguish the fire. Once again, once the Chinese army collapsed, it would be difficult to organize a counterattack, and the battle would be a complete failure.
While the Xianbei knights were chasing after him, Liu Bei finally reacted. He pulled out five hundred Tiefu knights from the army, all dressed in mysterious armor. He also wielded his sword and wore a special Mingguang armor. He encouraged these soldiers and said: "The main force of the enemy is crossing the river. There are not many who can harass the flanks of our army, but they are definitely elite. Our army has lost the opportunity, but the advantage is still there. As long as we repel this flanking enemy , our army has won this battle, can you all follow me and fight back?"
He asked his followers to fly the flying tiger flag with a cloud pattern, and all the Tiefu knights shouted in agreement. Liu Bei held his sword in front, and five hundred horsemen made a half circle around the camp, riding on the ruins of the burning and collapsed camp walls. The horses were flying like the wind. The defeated soldiers saw Liu Bei's flag in the morning light. Although they were still running for their lives, they He made way for Liu Bei to lead his army to meet the Xianbei knights.
At this time, Bu Dugen had rushed through three formations in succession, and successively defeated the Yuwen Department, the Shizhu Department, the Xianxian Department, and the Qufu Department. Yuwen Qiwei was lucky enough to escape from Tuoba Jiefen's sword, but he could not escape the Xianbei knight's reply. The horse's hoof was shot off by an arrow, and was then trampled into a puddle of flesh. Dugu Liwei was directly blocked by the defeated troops and had no way to escape, so he cut off the head of Dou Bin, the leader of Wuluhui tribe. The other Gudu princes were chased away like corpses, and Qu Fumeng Falcon was not spared either. .
At this time, Bu Dugen could not help but be overjoyed when he saw the cloud-patterned flying tiger flag coming. He smiled and said to the surrounding troops: "That is Liu Bei, the commander-in-chief of the Han army. He was lucky enough to escape in Sangqian, and now he has come to Shaling again." You gave us a gift!”
However, the Xianbei people attacked all night and continued to fight in the Han camp for an hour. In the end, their strength was exhausted. Liu Bei came in anger and fought with Bu Dugen's vanguard, defeating the enemy's line dozens of steps in a row. Liu Bei wielded his two swords, thrusting from left to right. His hands were two feet longer than ordinary people, and he specialized in cutting off the fingers and wrists of enemy knights. Several Xianbei knights suffered a lot, having more than ten fingers cut off in a row, and their spears, halberds, and knives fell off. One place.
Bu Dugen was shocked when he saw that the front line was at a disadvantage. He turned to his soldiers and said, "He is the commander-in-chief of the Han army and a heroic man. He cannot be ignored. Where is Su Liujin's black crotch?"
The soldiers immediately waved the flag and blew the trumpet, urging Su Liujin Heiqiao to move closer to the formation. At this time, Su Liujin Heiqiao was holding a broadsword and was chasing the remaining soldiers on the flanks who had not yet fled. In his ears, he could not only hear the sound of Bu Dugen's trumpet , on the mountains to the south of the Han army, there was also a faint sound of golden drums.
At this time, the sun had completely risen and it was already bright. Chen Chong was on the top of the mountain looking at the river bank where the fighting was taking place, overlooking the rear camp that was about to be defeated. Behind him, 20,000 Baibo soldiers were already ready to go. Yang Feng, Hu Cai, Han Xian, Gao Zhun, Xu Huang and others are waiting for his order.
