Xi Shen and Wu Xian were not the only ones to discover this.
In fact, after the front team of the Flying Leopard Army crossed the river safely, Tian Chou, who had been watching the other side, also noticed something was wrong.
He said tremblingly to Zhang Chong beside him:
"Your Majesty, it seems we have fallen into a trap."
At this time, Zhang Chong seemed to have foresight and asked directly:
"Are you saying that the Wuhuan people deliberately mobilized the Flying Leopard Army to cross the river and go south?"
Tian Chou was surprised and didn't understand why King Zhang was so calm.
Jushu next to him explained to this newcomer:
"Zitai, don't worry. The king naturally discovered that this is a conspiracy of the Wuhuan people. If our army is not divided, the Wuhuan people on the south bank will definitely take advantage of our army to fight, cross the river and go around our army. . And what about the division of our army? They can divide the strength of our army on the north bank. Previously, the king was just choosing the lesser of two evils, so he divided his troops."
But Tian Chou wondered, after all, whether he could see it or not, the strength of the troops on the north bank was indeed reduced by half. Now there are only about a thousand troops on our side, but looking at the opposite side, there may be five or six thousand Wuhuan Cavalry.
Jushou saw the impatience and fear of this descendant of the border county, laughed loudly, and then used the tone of an experienced person:
"Zitai, don't worry, don't be distracted, don't hold on. Let's watch it together with my disciples."
Jushou has already said this, Tian Chou can say more.
He could only look at King Zhang in front of him, and saw that he was still so calm and composed, as if he had not fallen into the trap of the Wuhuan people, but that the Wuhuan people had fallen into our trap.
It's really unbelievable.
……
At this moment, Zhang Chong, holding the fine steel horse, was quietly observing the Wuhuan people opposite.
The Wuhuan people on the opposite side may have brought their cattle and sheep, and the air smelled of cow dung, sheep dung, and eggs.
Looking at the noisy and scattered Wuhuan people, Zhang Chong did not attack impulsively, but kept searching for something.
Han Dang, who was in front of Zhang Chong, turned around at this moment and saw Zhang Chong constantly looking at the battlefield, thinking that the king was counting local flags.
So Han Dang couldn't help but said:
"Your Majesty, although these Wuhuan people are also familiar with flags and drums, they are not like us. They still use tents and tribes as units."
With that said, Han Dang took the lead, pointed to a flag on the opposite side and said:
"Your Majesty, look at that sheep-headed flag. According to our Han family system, there is at least a hundred-man cavalry underneath it, but it is not the case for the Wuhuan people. There may be two hundred people below, or even only twenty people. , it all depends on how many troops this sheep-headed tribe can send.”
Of course, Zhang Chong was not looking at the flag. His eyes could see the fighting power of the Wuhuan people on the battlefield. He was looking for where the Wuhuan people's force was most concentrated, and that was where Taton was and the direction of his main attack.
But it was naturally difficult to tell Han Dang this. At this time, Zhang Chong suddenly remembered that Han Dang was from Liaoxi and a border warrior. No wonder he knew the Wuhuan people so well.
So Zhang Chong suddenly asked Han Dang:
"Old Han, you said you would fight this battle, how do you fight it?"
Han Dang was stunned by these words. How could he hit him? He has never commanded a cavalry battle involving more than a hundred people, and the current cavalry battle involving tens of thousands of people on both sides really exceeded his experience.
But Han Dang still tried to seize the opportunity and thought about it:
"Now the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. If we want to win, we can only find Taton and many famous Wuhuan kings. Only in this way can we have a chance of winning."
However, when Han Dang said this, he said again:
"But I just looked at the battlefield, but I didn't find where Wuhuan Tadun was. I guess he himself also expected that he would be the only losing point in this battle, so he didn't show off."
Speaking of this, Han Dang sighed:
"It's a pity. It would be great if we could find out where Taton is."
Hearing Han Dang's words, Zhang Chong laughed.
Because he has discovered where Taton is!
So he moved his iron horse with one move, and Ju Shou and Tian Chou were behind him, and they rushed forward with five hundred generals.
……
Hegu Danggui, who is in front of Wuhuan on the north bank, stands on horseback under the wolf's head.
He was hesitating.
When he led his troops to the front of the formation and saw the finely armored Taishan Army on the opposite side, he realized that he had been tricked by Taton.
So at that time, he wanted to lead his troops to retreat, but Taton's cruelty exceeded everyone's expectations. He even claimed that whoever led the troops to retreat would be hanged.
This makes Hegu Danggui fearful. However, he has at least three ways to withdraw safely without being punished.
But until he saw the Taishan Army on the opposite side once again divided half of its troops to the south bank, Hegu Danggui hesitated.
Because a huge hesitation was placed in front of Hegu Danggui.
That was the opportunity to take charge of Wuhuan.
Hegu Danggui is a very smooth person, and he can always unite more Wuhuan chiefs. But Hegu Danggui has always been in second place because he is good at distributing benefits, but cannot win benefits for everyone.
Therefore, he could only succumb to Qiu Liju and Taton forever.
But now, the opportunity has come to address his weaknesses.
If he leads his own warriors to annihilate the Han people on the opposite side, he will win the supreme martial arts honor, and by then his last shortcoming will be gathered together.
As long as he was supporting Qiu Liju's youngest son, Taton, the Han-named Chanyu, would abdicate in favor of others.
It was precisely this temptation that was so great that Hegu Danggui, who had always wanted to preserve his strength, began to dare to fight.
He took a look at the knights surrounding him under the wolf's headband. These people were all wearing Han armor, holding horse shafts in their hands and holding horned bows. They were the most elite wolf-riding warriors in the Hegu tribe.
They Gaoche people have had enough to toss and turn for survival. They are more sober than any other nation. Without the support of force, the fate of the ethnic group is destined to be tragic. But now Hegu Angelica is going to gamble with the core strength of the Hegu tribe, and bet on the new future of a ethnic group.
Faced with this kind of decision involving the fate of the ethnic group, even Hegu Danggui's palms were sweating.
He is already old. He has already survived two generations of Wuhuan Chanyus. Now that he is out of bed, he really has no confidence to survive again.
Thinking of this, he became furious and finally made up his mind.
But just when Hegu Danggui was about to give the order to blow the trumpet, suddenly there was a constant noise in front.
Before he could react, he saw that the warriors who were originally surrounded by the wolf's head were being knocked away.
Yes, it was knocked away.
When the entire front was as miserable as a wheat field ravaged by a storm, Hegu Danggui finally saw the person opposite.
It was a knight whose whole body reflected light, and then he fell into darkness.
Before I died, I heard this sentence:
"Not this!"
……
Zhang Chong's faceplate was covered with blood, and a lot of blood was splashed into the holes in his eyes, which made Zhang Chong's vision increasingly blurry.
Just now, he led Cai Que, Guo Zu, Han Dang and other cavalrymen to charge into the formation.
Those Wuhuan people didn't react at all, and they were torn apart by Zhang Chong and poured in.
Before walking two hundred steps, he saw a chief with a miscellaneous appearance from the northwest standing on horseback under a large banner. Seeing this appearance, Zhang Chong immediately realized that he had found the wrong person.
Even though he had never seen Taton, he knew that he was a yellow-skinned one.
So Zhang Chong easily beat the man to death, and then pulled out the wolf-headed banner.
Then Zhang Chong looked around and saw many large cars parked beside the big banner.
After that, without turning around, he said to Cai Que and others beside him:
"Burn all these big cars! It's the first time I've seen someone bring a convertible to the battlefield."
Cai Que and others shouted, then they took out a fire stick and set fire to these carts.
Thick black smoke rose, making the battlefield on the north bank even more chaotic.
The Wuhuan people who were dismounting and waiting nearby suddenly saw the thick smoke and mounted their horses to support.
But when they got here, they saw only corpses everywhere and burned-out carts, and no trace of the enemy.
And they also found the remains of He Gu Angelica.
Seeing the chief whose entire chest was caved in, these people were in a daze. They realized that things were bad.
So, they carried Hegu Danggui's body and rushed towards Taton, but they didn't know that they were pointing the direction for Zhang Chong.
……
After confusing the Wuhuan people with thick smoke, Zhang Chong led the cross-collision general directly to the north, went around behind a low hill, and then waited.
Sure enough, the nearby Wuhuan people quickly came to support, and some of them actually brought the corpse to find Taton.
Seeing this, Zhang Chong shouted:
"Everyone, in today's battle, martial arts belongs to everyone! Kill!"
In this way, Zhang Chong followed the team of Wuhuan people who reported the news, and rushed with five hundred generals.
At the same time, on the front, the remaining five hundred cavalry, led by the cavalry general Le Jin, also launched an attack.
Their task is to attract attention for Zhang Chong coming from behind.
So, Le Jin, holding a spear in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, shouted to the cavalry troops who had prepared behind him:
"Now, we, the cavalry army, attack!"
As the sun gradually set, Le Jin led the 500 cavalrymen. From the very beginning, they unleashed their horse speed and sprinted wildly, creating a posture where the main force came out in full force.
Today's battle is when their cavalry army becomes famous, and it also lets everyone in the world know that our Taishan Army's unparalleled cavalry warriors also have a share in the cavalry department of our guard army!
Le Jin, who shouldered such ambitions, roared loudly:
"Won victory!"
His mouth was filled with wind, and his voice followed the wind. The armored knight behind him also shouted:
"Won victory!"
As a result, the five hundred riders rolled up the wind and waves and crashed into the front of the Wuhuan people.
……
Behind the Wuhuan people, there was also a wilderness. The palace warrior beside Taton said to Taton:
"Chanyu, Taishan's army has moved. They are rushing towards our army! There is no backup, and the whole army will attack when they come up."
Tadun, who was under the iron mask, nodded and gave an order:
"Let Guimaxi lead his troops to resist, and I will ask the palace warriors to support him later. Tell him again that these Han people have no reinforcements and no backup. As long as he does not collapse, these Han people will die!"
The palace warrior received the order and rode to the front line.
Then, the place fell into silence again.
