Long live the general

In mid-April, the sun shines on the hard edges of the beacon, and the weather gradually warms up. Wu Xing, a soldier on the beacon, is wearing armor and looking into the distance.

What he was thinking about was the family letter sent by his brother yesterday. His brother was selling cloth in Shangyang City to support his parents.Wu Xing sent part of the food and salary home every year, and his brother often made some new clothes for him.

In the letter, the elder brother said that the business was very good during the Lantern Festival today, and he deliberately left a piece of brand new fabric to make a new suit for Wu Xing.It's spring plowing, and the farming is busy. The good news is that my sister-in-law is pregnant. Today is my mother's [-]th birthday. She is going to host a birthday banquet for her neighbors. I don't know if Wu Xing will come back...

It's all trivial things, Wu Xing once again counted how long it would take for him to go home. The fields at home were cultivated by his parents and sister-in-law. After returning, his parents would not have to work so hard... He thought so Then, I saw a cold light suddenly flashing in the distance.

The wind also became chilling, the grass leaves rustled, and the sunlight suddenly became extremely dazzling.The ground was shaking slightly, and the spear in his hand trembled. Wu Xing looked into the distance, and at the edge of the dim and piercing vision, the black cavalry of the Huns gradually appeared in the field of vision. At first, it was just a distant black line, and soon , you can clearly see the knives and arrows shining with cold light.

Da da, da da, da da.

The neat sound of horseshoes was getting closer, and the smoke and dust raised by the horseshoes blurred the boundaries of the sky, blowing towards the face with the breath of death.

Wu Xing's heart tightened, and he shouted: "The Xiongnu invaded the frontier!"

He grabbed the torch on one side, and tremblingly lit the beacon.

A thick smoke slowly rises from the beacon tower!

Fear seized Wu Xing's mind. The terrible legends about the Huns he heard in the past made him sweat and tremble with fear, but he was a soldier of Dayue, and behind him was Shangyang City, where his family lived... Wu Xing grasped it tightly with trembling hands. The bow and arrow next to him, just as he was about to raise his bow, a sharp arrow from the horizon roared, piercing Wu Xing's throat.

How could such a long distance be possible...

He fell to the ground, Suichang picked up the bow and arrow in his hand, and stared into the distance with a dozen soldiers in the beacon, their necks were cold, and their hearts were beating like drums. They knew that they would die here today.

The function of the beacon is only an early warning, so that the captain in the rear has time to mobilize the defenders.The longer they stand, the safer those behind them will be.Although everyone is constantly clamoring to escape in their hearts, where can they escape?

After that arrow, hundreds of sharp arrows flew towards the beacon, drawing sharp arcs in the air.

The Hun who commanded the archery rode on a horse. His name was Huyan Baya, and he was the youngest son of Huyan Qieche. He was very young, but after several wars, he was already an experienced commander of thousands of cavalry.

Hu Yan pulled his teeth and wore a sable hat decorated with feathers, covering his head so that the sun could not shine into his eyes.There were several screams from the beacon, Hu Yan pulled his teeth and didn't pay attention to the beacon with only a dozen people guarding it. He swung his arm heavily, and a thousand cavalry rushed towards the desert with the momentum of destroying the mountain. Fengsui rushed over.

The dozen or so soldiers in the beacon held out for less than a quarter of an hour. Hu Yan pulled out his teeth and took the lead, beheading Sui Chang's head and hanging it on the horse's back.

Hu Yan pulled his teeth without even stopping, and led his cavalry to continue galloping. Their goal was Shangyang City behind.The beacon tower left behind by them was dead silent, and a dozen lives were all turned into flesh and blood, dyeing the soil and city walls a dull blood red.

But another beacon has already lit up the beacon.

Shangyang City is just a small city. The highest military commander here, surnamed Wang, hastily put on his armor and organized the soldiers to fight.Shangyang City had 1000 defenders. According to the news from the beacon fire, there were [-] Hun cavalrymen.

Although he had an advantage in numbers, Captain Wang knew that he could not defend. For the people of Dai Viet who had lived under the shadow of the Huns for a hundred years, the Huns were invincible.

The bow and arrows of the Huns, the steeds of the Huns, the strength of the Huns, and the bloodthirsty nature of the Huns-every Dai Viet people are terrified!

Before leaving, Captain Wang hurriedly said to his wife: "Take the child and leave, let him study hard in the future... Don't wait for me to come back, take care."

"No!" His wife grabbed his cuff: "You are gone, what will I do with my child..."

"I died fighting the Huns. The imperial court will give you a pension of [-] yuan. In the future, the child can also be nominated as an official. His father died for the country, and the descendants of the royal family can straighten their backs."

He pulled away his wife's hand and walked out with a big knife. His wife cried out behind him: "Wang Lang, you have to come back alive!"

"I am the captain. Shangyang City has fallen, and I have no face to live on..." Only he could hear this sentence.

The speed of the Xiongnu was extremely fast, and they could travel six hundred miles day and night. In the blink of an eye, they came to Yangcheng with soldiers intent on killing.

Wang Duwei led the army to fight against the Huns. Three thousand infantrymen were under the iron cavalry of the cavalry, and they had no power to resist.That speed and strength enabled the Hun cavalry to fight ten against one. With the speed and strength of the horses, they easily pierced through the bodies of the soldiers of Dayue. In front of the city, the Huns cavalry sharply and quickly destroyed the line of defense.

Huyan pulled out his teeth and broke into the city, wantonly looting and massacring the soldiers and civilians in the city, killing anyone he saw, the whole Shangyang City was filled with the stench of blood and decay.

Huyan pulled his teeth and tied up Captain Wang, dragged him behind the horse, and let him watch the Xiongnu massacre the city.When there was no more sound in Shangyang City, Hu Yan pulled his teeth and sat on the horseback, laughing loudly: "My father always said, be careful when fighting with the Dayue people, but I think they are under my Hu Jun's iron cavalry. , weaker than a lamb on the prairie!"

When a wolf comes out, a thousand sheep leave.The Huns often compare themselves with the cavalry of the Huns and the infantry of Dai Viet in this way.

He raised his long knife and said, "I am a bearded man, an invincible wolf, the only king! When the soldiers of Dayue saw us, they could only kneel down and beg for mercy!"

The Huns cavalry echoed one after another, their eyes and voices were full of contempt for the Central Plains people.

Hu Yan pulled his teeth and suddenly pulled the rope, causing Wang Duwei to kneel on the ground, and said sharply: "Kneel down, Central Plains people!"

Captain Wang was covered in blood. He gritted his teeth and looked at him. He bent his legs and wanted to stand up. Another Hun soldier kicked him in the back. Captain Wang immediately lay on the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The Huns burst into laughter, and Huyan pulled out his teeth and laughed too: "You people from the Central Plains are only worthy to lie down in front of me."

Pointing his knife at the weak and dying Captain Wang, he said, "I'll give you one more chance, kneel down!"

Captain Wang raised his head: "I only kneel to the masters of heaven and earth!"

He spoke Hu language, Hu Yan pulled his teeth and looked at him in surprise, there are not many people who can speak Central Plains dialect and Hu language, if you can bring him under his command, it will help him get more information about Dayue.

"If you are willing to be my translator, I can spare your life and reward you with a hundred cattle and sheep." The blade of Hu Yan's tooth was getting closer and closer to him, and his eyes were fixed on him: "In the big When Hu is an official, it is better than being big. Because in this land, Dahu is the most powerful royal court, and you no longer have to worry about dying. As for your Chang'an City, it will be captured by us soon. Inside Chang'an City Let us take whatever you want, even your emperor will beg for mercy under Dahu's sword and horse..."

Captain Wang staggered to his feet, staring at Hu Yan and pulling his teeth.

"The Xiongnu thieves! Blood for blood, blood for blood! One day, your blood will be used to establish the reputation of Dai Viet!"

He rushed forward and bumped into the blade of Hu Yan's tooth-pulling knife, blood burst and splashed on the faces of the Hun soldiers around him.

Hu Yan pulled out his teeth and retracted the scimitar, slowly wiped the blood on the blade with his clothes, and said coldly: "Dayue people, this is the only bone left."

"Unfortunately, in front of the big Hu's cavalry, backbone is just a joke."

The news that Shangyang City was looted and slaughtered spread to Xihebian County.

When Huo Yi came to the familiar Xihebian County with [-] cavalry, seeing that everyone in Xihebian County was in danger and the wind was jittery, he already had a bad feeling in his heart.

Tao Jiamu told him the news about Shangyang City: "The leader of the team is called Huyan Pulling the Tooth. After the looting, they withdrew."

Huo Yi's heart was bleeding, he clenched his fists tightly, and said, "I'm late."

"This is news from five days ago." Tao Jiamu said, "The cavalry of the Huns came and went like the wind, and it only took one day to slaughter the city... You can't catch up."

Seeing that Huo Yi's eyes were bloodshot, Tao Jiamu knocked on the table: "The Huns usually invade in autumn and winter, but this time they came to plunder in spring and summer. Huo Yi, their behavior is very suspicious."

"Why?" Huo Yi believed Tao Jiamu's analysis that the Xiongnu seldom moved in spring and summer.

"I don't know yet, but you must be careful." Tao Jiamu said: "This is the first time that the Dai Viet army has entered the desert to fight, and in the desert, those small countries are all vassal states of the Huns, so proceed with caution, General Huo. "

"I know." Huo Yi said.

He was good enough? He acted cautiously, and Tao Jiamu knew him well enough to be able to tell his friends for many years like this, which showed that in Tao Jiamu's heart, the risk of this battle was extremely high.

They don't know where the Huns are. If they encounter a large army, it will be more or less ominous.

This expedition, in the eyes of many people, is no different from sending to death.

Although I really want to set off that day, it is best to catch up with Huyan's army.But from Chang'an City to Xihebian County, this army was very tired after marching day and night, and Bian County was their last station.

Huo Yi let the army rest for a day.

The next day, in the morning light, Huo Yi led his army away from Xihebian County, deviated from the original plan, and headed towards Shangyang City.Ten thousand cavalry hovered over the desert like black clouds. In the strong wind, their speed was extremely fast. After reaching the deathly silent Shangyang City, Huo Yi followed the traces left by the Huns cavalry.

He wanted to catch up with this army, not only to avenge Shangyang City, but also to learn more about the whereabouts of the Xiongnu.

The author has something to say:

The Huns called themselves Dahu.
