"This is too much!" After King Wusun heard the soldier's report, a surge of anger rushed from his heart to Tianling Gai. He kicked the table in front of him to the ground, angrily pulled out his sword and strode outside. Giving orders as he walked,
"Assemble all the guards and follow me to kill the invading enemies." Originally, he was a little hesitant. Needless to say, the elites of the Zhao army are definitely very powerful, and the Zhao State behind them must not be provoked by the Wusun State.
Although the goods brought by Zhao's caravan are valuable, it is not worth offending a big country. But what Kun Jian said makes sense. If Zhao can send 500 people, he may send 5,000 or 50,000 people in the future... Regardless of whether Zhao has any thoughts about Wusun, no courageous monarch will Hanging the country's survival on the mercy of its enemies.
King Wusun has been struggling and weighing the pros and cons, so he has not taken action yet. Don't think about it now.
Zhao Jun took action first! Five hundred people from Chang District took action first! If King Wusun doesn't fight back, he will be worse than cow dung on the grassland. At least no one dares to step on cow dung!
…
"They are coming!" Just a few miles away from Chigu City, the Zhao Guo caravan heard a violent vibration in the ground behind them. Soon, a black torrent rushed from a distance, getting closer and closer.
"Everyone, form an array! Soldiers in front, merchants in back." Mao Sui ordered loudly. After hearing the order, Zhao Jun, led by Lian An, quickly gathered and rushed to Mao Sui's side.
The merchant also took out the crossbow machine from the frame, loaded the crossbow arrows, and prepared to meet the enemy. These are simplified light crossbows, which are very easy to use. The disadvantages are short killing range and low lethality. They are generally used for self-protection.
They are just businessmen. They have no training and cannot use bows and arrows well. Only these crossbows are suitable for them. They just wait until the enemy rushes in front of them and pull the trigger.
The crossbows used in the army cannot be used well if they are not trained.
"It's a bit difficult!" Lian An said solemnly. There were only four to five thousand cavalry in front of them, ten times as many as Zhao Jun!
If it were just these people, Lian An wouldn't be too worried. But here is Wusun. Once the enemy in front of them cannot be defeated in a short period of time, Zhao Jun will fall into the human sea tactics and completely lose hope of victory.
"Prepare to charge!" Mao Sui ordered. Qian
"Don't you want to talk about it?" Lian An looked at Mao Sui. In his opinion, it would be better to talk about this situation. Zhao Jun is really no match for Wusun.
"If Wusun wants to talk about peace, then the thousands of troops rushing over now are not. Moreover, our army is cavalry, so we must ensure sufficient charging distance, otherwise the combat effectiveness will be affected." Mao Sui said in a deep voice.
"I understand." Lian An nodded and pointed his halberd forward.
"All Zhao Jun, follow me and charge!" Nearly five hundred Zhao Jun, holding bows and arrows, clamping their legs tightly on the horse's belly, with firm eyes, followed Lian An and rushed towards Wusun's army.
Front arrow formation! The war cloud above Zhao Jun's head quickly rolled up and solidified, forming a huge arrow-shaped war cloud that shot towards the Wusun Army.
Looking at the thin war clouds above Wusun Jun's head, Lian An showed a trace of ridicule. People like Qian are not as good as the Xiongnu in using war clouds. Even if the Xiongnu does not master the battle formation, they still know how to strengthen the war clouds and collapse the enemy's war clouds.
Wusun doesn't understand anything.
"What is this!" Looking at the war clouds above Zhao Jun, King Wusun suddenly felt an extremely bad feeling in his heart.
No one answered, because no one in Wusun knew!
"Fire the arrow!" Lian An ordered after the distance between the two sides was only more than a hundred steps.
"Swish, swish, swish!" Such a short distance could only accommodate one volley. Zhao Jun quickly put away his bow and arrows, replaced his sword, and followed Lian An into the Wusun army.
Qian
"Boom!" There seemed to be a loud noise in the air. The moment the massive Wusun Army collided with Zhao Army, it shattered like an egg hitting a stone.
Wusun Jun, who had no stirrups or saddles, kept falling off his horse and never stood up again. The soldiers of Zhao State who survived the meat grinding mills in the Central Plains were not at all what the so-called elites of Wusun State could resist.
Even when facing an enemy ten times his own, Zhao Jun did not show any fear. charge! Qian charges!
charge! Zhao Jun waved his sword and harvested the lives of Wusun soldiers like wheat.
"It's been a long time since I've killed so freely." Lian An swung his halberd and cut off several Wusun soldiers in front of him. He laughed, but with the blood on his face, he looked extremely ferocious.
"Ren Zhao, die." Kun Jian finally rushed to Lian An and slashed at Lian An with his sword.
"General Wusun!" Lian An's eyes lit up! The reason why Kun Jian's identity is so certain is that among the four to five thousand Wusun troops in front of him, less than half are wearing armor, and all of them are leather armor.
Of course, it may be related to the fact that cavalry are not suitable for wearing iron or bronze armor. However, Lian An believes that Wusun cannot build it, or even won't build it at all, because most Rongdi are like this.
But Kun Jian was wearing bronze armor!
"Dang!" A simple and rough collision, the two of them passed side by side. Lian An confirmed Kun Jian's strength. Like him, he was at the pinnacle of the Gangyuan Realm. His inner energy might be thicker than his, but he was far behind him in other aspects.
He was born with an extraordinary father who taught him martial arts, a father who was one of the top generals in the Central Plains who taught him the art of war, and guidance from his father's friends. He also experienced several battles in which the number of participants in the battles totaled hundreds of thousands or even millions.
Qian Kunjian has nothing but passion!
"You are very good. If you were born in Zhao country, your future achievements will definitely surpass mine. It's a pity that you were born in Wusun..." Lian An said seriously.
But Kun Jian couldn't understand what Lian An was talking about. Both Zhao Jun and Wusun Jun were charging. After the brief confrontation, the two did not stop, but continued to charge forward.
Although Wusun's army has a large number of people, the number of people who can face Zhao's army at the same time is fixed. Zhao Jun was like a red-hot iron, rushing through the snow. Wherever he went, the snowflakes melted.
The war clouds above turned from golden to blood red, like a vast ocean of blood completely swallowing up the Wusun army. More than an hour later, the Wusun army withered away like the lotuses in autumn, leaving only Kun Jian and more than a thousand soldiers to resist desperately.
"Your Majesty, retreat and let the Zhao caravan leave." Dalu Yoshihiko said timidly. Over the years, he has never seen such a powerful legion. Less than 500 people killed 5,000 Wusun Guards, and his own losses were less than 100.
This was the Guards, the most powerful army in the entire Wusun, and was defeated by less than one-tenth of its own legion.
No wonder it can reach here from Zhao State across tens of thousands of miles. This kind of army does not need to be large, even if it is only 10,000, it is enough to sweep across the entire Wusun.
Although Wusun claims to have an army of 200,000, everyone knows how much water there is inside. Qian
"Your Majesty, if it were before, I would have suggested that your Majesty let them leave, but now... we have completely offended the State of Zhao. The only way is to eradicate the roots. As long as everyone is left here, there is absolutely no way for the State of Zhao to be thousands of miles away. I know it was me, Wusun, who did it." Wusun Xiang said sharply.
"What the Prime Minister said makes sense, but... we may not be able to keep these Zhao people. Just killing a hundred Zhao people will cost nearly four thousand soldiers. If we keep all these people, we will lose tens of thousands." Even if all the goods are snatched by then, I, Wusun, will still suffer a loss." King Wusun shook his head.
"Your Majesty, that's not the calculation. Previously, the Zhao army was able to recharge its batteries, so it was able to replace the 4,000 Wusun soldiers with a loss of one hundred. But now, almost everyone in the Zhao army is injured, and the men and horses are exhausted. At this time, there are more than 300 soldiers left. Their combat effectiveness is not as good as the more than 100 soldiers before. As long as I, Wusun, send thousands more people, I can keep all the Zhao army here." Wusun Xiang said with a smile.
