Chapter 440: The Confused Wuhuan Great Chanyu, Dian Wei's Killing Feast
Xu Chu, Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun also lay on the grass and gradually fell asleep. After nearly a week of running and fighting, they had not had a good rest. Now they could finally have a good rest, and several of them fell asleep very quickly.
In the middle of the night, Xu Chu, who was sleeping soundly, put his ears to the ground, but suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance. This sound of horse hooves made Xu Chu, who was sleeping, instantly open his eyes. What caught his eye was, It's the particles of dust that are jumping due to the sound of horse hooves.
Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun beside him also opened their eyes one after another, and they also heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the distance.
"Enemy attack!"
Cao Ren immediately stood up and roared, and his whole body became tense instantly. This roar also woke up the sleeping soldiers. They all raised their heads to look at Cao Ren, and then suddenly turned to look at the source of the sound. They all raised their spears and mounted their horses to meet the unknown enemy.
Being in the hinterland of Wuhuan, they had to be vigilant. Anyone who appeared here would be their enemy. Before they were ready, a dark cavalry appeared in front of them in the distance.
"They seem to be Wuhuan's cavalry."
Cao Ren narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the huge cavalry camp in front of him. Only a small number of the cavalry were wearing iron armor, and the rest were wearing regular clothes. Coupled with the difference between the appearance of the Hu people and the Han people, it was easy to identify the race of the other party. , just like now, Cao Ren recognized the identity of the opponent's Wuhuan cavalry at a glance.
"I guess they are chasing Huang Zhong and others. Let's communicate with them and tell them that we are not the same group as that group of people."
"Okay, I'll go communicate."
The deputy general beside Cao Ren nodded, drove his horse forward, came to the front of the camp, stood in the middle of the armies of both sides, and said loudly.
"We are under the command of Prime Minister Cao, the current Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty. We are enemies of those who attacked you some time ago. Please retreat quickly."
The deputy general's words were full of disdain. In his opinion, the Wuhuan cavalry were just a group of barbarians, and they were not worthy of saying anything.
In the Wuhuan cavalry camp, a man who looked like a weak scholar was in the leading position. It was the Wuhuan Great Chanyu who had just died of two younger brothers. He was now leading all the Wuhuan cavalry to hunt down Huang Zhong and others. Just to avenge his two younger brothers, he has been blinded by hatred.
When he saw a large number of Han cavalry appearing in front of him, he no longer wanted to listen to what the other party said. Even if the other party said that he was not the same group as those who killed his brother, he was not willing to listen anymore.
"They are all Han! They are all invaders. No matter if they are in a group or not, kill them all. Kill them all by me!"
Wuhuan Shanyu shouted at the top of his lungs.
"If it weren't for the unscrupulous invasion of you Han people, how could my two younger brothers have died!"
Seeing that the Wuhuan cavalry had no intention of stopping, the lieutenant general was a little panicked. Although he had been trying to comfort himself in his heart to calm himself down, he was still a little panicked in the face of so many troops.
"We are under the command of Prime Minister Cao of the Han Dynasty! Stop the charge immediately! Otherwise, don't blame us for taking action!"
However, what responded to him was just sharp arrows flying at high speed one after another.
These archers are all wealthy men on the grassland, because there is little iron ore on the grassland, and even armor cannot be made much, but they are willing to make arrowheads for them. This shows that they must be deeply involved in black and white. Huan Dayu trusted them, and they were indeed Wuhuan Dayu's personal soldiers, responsible for protecting his safety. Now they were brought here by Wuhuan Dayu to avenge his two younger brothers.
The opponent's continuous shooting only lasted for a short while. After all, they really didn't have any extra iron ore to make enough arrows for their use. Most of the arrows were recycled, including the ones they just shot. Arrows, they also have to take them back, otherwise, they will face the embarrassing situation of having no arrows to use next time.
Seeing that the opponent not only did not stop charging, but instead launched an attack on himself, the deputy general became furious immediately. He shouted angrily and blocked some of the opponent's arrows with his spear. Cao Ren also had a panoramic view of this scene, his eyes showing A hint of coldness.
"Since they are looking for death, let them die."
Cao Ren waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to take action. Huang Zhong and Ma Chao failed to capture it, so they could make up for some losses by capturing the Wuhuan Palace and plundering the gold and silver treasures and men from the tribes under their command. , You will not return empty-handed, and you will avoid Prime Minister Cao being angry when you return.
The deputy general took the lead and attacked the opponent's cavalry. The opponent had just launched an attack on him without any explanation, which made the deputy general completely angry. He held a spear and started a massacre in the enemy's camp. He, a second-rate general, and Cao Cao With the bonus, it is definitely easy to deal with these Wuhuan cavalry.
With all 18,000 cavalry joining the battle, the offensive of Wuhuan's 80,000 cavalry was blocked, making it difficult for the battle line to move forward any further. Wuhuan's great Chanyu looked at the scene in front of him with a little red eyes.
"Kill me! But there are only 20,000 people, how can they stop the 80,000 cavalry under my command?"
His roar reached the ears of Cao Ren and others. They looked at each other in surprise, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha, 80,000 cavalry? Is this also called cavalry? Hahaha, this is really hilarious."
"It doesn't even have full armor, and the weapons they use are all made of wood? It's really ridiculous. It's even a cavalry. This can't even be considered a cavalry."
"Even if we bring the Yellow Turban Army here, we can crush these people. It's just that it's more difficult to kill them."
The three people's wanton ridicule made Wuhuan Great Chanyu blush and grit his teeth.
"It's OK if I can kill you."
Cao Ren shook his head and ignored them. He rushed into the enemy camp with Xiahou Dun and Xu Chu. When the three of them entered the enemy camp, it was a real massacre. As their weapons were swung, Wuhuan cavalry fell one by one. In front of them, these Wuhuan cavalry were no different from the weeds growing wantonly in the fields. Facing three people, let alone fighting back, even attacking became a luxury.
After being promoted to famous generals, they have gradually left the category of human beings. If they were soldiers like Gu Rubing and Cao Cao, they might be able to kill a famous general by relying on numbers, but like Wuhuan cavalry, wanting to kill a famous general by relying on numbers, and only 80,000 cavalry, that is nothing but a foolish dream.
Seeing his 80,000 troops, which were like paper in front of the enemy, Wuhuan Great Chanyu was like dreaming at the moment, dizzy. He originally thought that he had 80,000 cavalry, and even if the enemy fled back to Bingzhou, he would have the capital to chase them, but now, reality is not what he wants.
"Stop! Stop! Our target is not you, this is a misunderstanding!"
Seeing his cavalry begin to decrease at a very fast speed, Wuhuan Great Chanyu was anxious. This was the full strength of their entire country. As a result, because of his misjudgment, he was about to face the situation of annihilation. At this critical moment, Wuhuan Great Chanyu finally couldn't care about his face and shouted loudly.
"I heard that Han Dynasty Prime Minister Cao and Han Dynasty King Lie have been resentful for a long time. Our enemies are the same, and we should be friends!"
He certainly couldn't watch all his subordinates die in the hands of such a group of people who had no hatred or resentment. He couldn't accept it. After hearing the voice of Wuhuan Great Chanyu, the deputy general in the battle immediately cursed.
"Fuck, what the hell were you doing? The fight has already started, and you want to stop now?! It's not that easy!"
The deputy general waved his spear and wandered among the Wuhuan cavalry, killing at least one enemy with each spear.
"This is a misunderstanding! A huge misunderstanding!"
The Wuhuan Great Chanyu said urgently. For every minute of delay, hundreds or thousands of his men would lose their lives. The 80,000-man army had lost more than 10,000 men in just a quarter of an hour. At this rate, it would take less than an hour for his army to be wiped out.
On the other hand, the other side had only lost a thousand men since the start of the war, and because the other side's three generals joined the battlefield, the loss ratio of both sides was gradually increasing, and the speed of his losses was still increasing.
"Retreat!"
Seeing that the other side had no intention of stopping the fight, the Wuhuan Great Chanyu immediately issued an order to retreat. Staying here and continuing to fight was tantamount to a bad strategy.
"Retreat? Who told you to retreat? I'll kill you first!"
The deputy general, who was originally going to be punished for failing to surround and kill Ma Chao and Huang Zhong, was hit by a bow and arrow by the Wuhuan Great Khan. At this moment, he was furious and stopped slaughtering the Wuhuan cavalry, but turned to kill the Wuhuan Great Khan.
Compared with the situation where the Wuhuan cavalry were slaughtered, the situation of the Dongxian King who volunteered to resist Dian Wei's advance was not much better. He also had 80,000 cavalry under his command, but faced nearly 23,800 cavalry, including 3,800 tiger and leopard cavalry, which could fight one against a hundred. Even if he fought with the third-rate generals under the Dongxian King, he was not inferior. Fortunately, there was only one famous general, Dian Wei, and he also had four court kings under his command, all of whom were first-rate generals, which temporarily blocked Dian Wei's attack.
However, the situation is not optimistic, because the four court kings are now completely relying on their large numbers to avoid being defeated by Dian Wei immediately. The four people besieged Dian Wei alone. Not only did Dian Wei not have any scars on his body, but they were covered with scars. Among them, the king of the Southern Court was hit by Dian Wei with a halberd, leaving a huge scar on his back, and the warm blood that flowed out stained the cold and fragmented armor.
"What kind of perverts are they? They can fight against my 80,000 troops with more than 20,000 people. When did the combat power of the Han Dynasty become so strong?"
The King of Dongxian said with some horror. Among their five major courts, only the King of Nanxian usually has a lot of interactions with Liangzhou, but he has never heard the King of Nanxian say that the strength of the Han Dynasty has now developed to this point. In his impression, when his father took him to fight the Han Dynasty a few years ago, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty were not as good as they are now, not even half of them, or half of half of them.
The most shocking thing to the Eastern Wise King was Dian Wei. Just when he was shocked, the Western Court King, one of the four court kings who was in charge of besieging Dian Wei, had his arm cut off by Dian Wei. The severe pain made the Western Court King lose his mind and was almost cut in half by Dian Wei. Thanks to the Eastern Court King who pulled him up, he didn't die on the spot.
The two so-called war gods who fought with Cao Zhang had their heads cut off by Cao Zhang at this moment, and were brought to the front of the battle and thrown into the sky.
"The left and right war gods are dead, and next is your four court kings, and then next is you! Why don't you surrender quickly?!"
Cao Zhang shouted at the top of his lungs, but the Wuhuan cavalry did not respond at all. Cao Zhang was stunned for a moment before he realized that the other party did not understand the language of the Han Dynasty at all, and he himself did not speak the Hu language, so he did not continue to disrupt the other party's morale. Instead, he waved his sword and rushed into the enemy crowd, while moving closer to Dian Wei to see if he could help Dian Wei.
Dian Wei watched the four people who besieged him gradually fall into a disadvantage, smiled slightly, and the aura on his body suddenly disappeared. A strong wave of aura was centered on Dian Wei and dispersed in all directions. The four kings of the four courtyards were blown back a few steps by this powerful aura wave. When they looked up again, they saw that Dian Wei, who was originally in the center of their encirclement, had disappeared at this moment.
The next moment, the seriously injured King Nanyuan only felt a flash of red light in front of his eyes, and then he lost all consciousness. The other three looked at the position of King Nanyuan in horror. Dian Wei, who had just disappeared in the center of their encirclement, suddenly appeared behind King Nanyuan, holding a halberd in one hand and King Nanyuan's head in the other. King Nanyuan's eyes were wide open, and he was killed inexplicably.
Dian Wei's body was glowing red, which was a unique symbol of his skills. After the two skills of Endless Fury and Ancient Evil were activated at the same time, Dian Wei's attack power reached a terrifying value. Even against some famous generals, it was easy, not to mention these foreign first-class generals who did not have the bonus of a powerful lord.
In front of Dian Wei who had activated his skills, they were no different from second-rate and third-rate generals. It was nothing more than one more halberd or one less halberd. Only first-rate generals like Zhao Yun and Sun Ce, who had special characteristics and could provide huge attribute bonuses, could fight against Dian Wei for a few moves, but both of them were promoted to famous generals.
In other words, all the first-rate generals in the world today were no different from second-rate generals in front of Dian Wei who activated both the skills of Endless Fury and Ancient Evil at the same time.
"Kill!"
The King of the East Courtyard, who had the strongest combat power among the four, roared and took the remaining Kings of the West Courtyard and the North Courtyard to kill Dian Wei, wanting to trap Dian Wei among them and not give Dian Wei a chance to kill. If Dian Wei killed him, their King of the South would be in danger.
But before the King of the East Courtyard could touch Dian Wei, Dian Wei's figure disappeared again, leaving only a residual shadow on the spot. The residual shadow flew away, and the next moment, the King of the North Courtyard had been beheaded.
