Chapter 32: The Huns Fall Into Ambush (Part 1)
Qin Yiren and the others saw it, were overjoyed and cheered in unison: "Shooting Shanyu to death! Shooting Shanyu to death!"
Although the Shanyu had no strength in controlling the Huns and could not make the Huns tied together, he was the nominal supreme leader of the Huns and a symbol of the Huns. Killing him had a great blow to the military morale of the Huns, and it could be said to be a devastating blow.
Shanyu came to take down his horse. This was a great joy, and Qin Yiren and others were not happy.
The situation on the Xiongnu side was exactly the opposite of Qin Yiren and the others' joy. They were all jealous, their eyes widened, their faces were disbelief, and they exclaimed in unbelievingly: "Big Shanyu! Big Shanyu!"
The Shanyu had poor control over the Huns, after all, he was the leader of the Huns and a supreme symbol. With him in the Huns, he had the backbone. If he lost him, the Huns would lose their spiritual pillar. He would not be able to panic.
Look at the Huns' angry look, as if the sky had collapsed.
However, just as they were about to despair, they saw the Chanyu on the ground move, raised his head, shook his head, and said, "What's the matter with panic? This Chanyu is fine."
"The Great Shanyu!" The Huns cried with joy, each with tears in their eyes, as if they saw their ancestors.
"Da Shanyu, are you really okay?" asked a group of ministers.
"It's a pity that my Shanyu's horse." The Shanyu got up and looked at the horse that had lost its breath, which was very sad.
This is his mount. He has been following him for many years. He will follow him in battles and fight in the east and west. He is very caring for this war horse. Unexpectedly, he will be shot and killed by the Qin army today.
The crossbow was really thrilling just now. If it were a little higher, it would not be the war horse that died. It was Shanyu. He was shocked and sweated all over his body, as if he had washed in water.
"Give me a horse." Shanyu shouted at his guards.
The personal guard was loyal to the Shanyu and could die for the Shanyu. After hearing this, someone immediately jumped off the war horse and handed the reins to the Shanyu. At this critical moment of life and death, the war horse is life. This personal guard can give up his war horse without hesitation. He was very moved by the Shanyu. He patted the shoulder of the guard and said, "I am worthy of being a warrior of the Great Huns. This Shanyu will treat your family well!"
"Thank you, Da Shanyu!" This personal guard was moved by the secret actions of the Shanyu and burst into tears.
Those personal guards who did not make the war horses admire him and regretted that they were not that fast?
"Quickly, surround the Great Chanyu," the guard's eyes shone and he roared.
Surrounding the Shanyu in the middle is definitely a good way to protect the Shanyu. The guards listened to it. They agreed and immediately implemented it. In this way, the Shanyu was surrounded by the guards, and there were three layers inside and three layers outside.
"Huh!" Shanyu's hanging heart finally let go, and now his life was guaranteed.
The horse flew on the fly, the Shanyu ran away, and the personal guards rushed forward and behind him, protecting him very strictly.
"The Huns also have loyal and righteous people!" Qin Yiren saw it and admired it very much.
Loyalty and righteousness are not distinguished from our enemies. Even if it is an enemy, as long as he has a loyalty and righteous heart, it is worthy of admiration.
"Yes." Huang Shigong nodded and praised, "It's just that, it will be much more difficult for us to shoot and kill Shanyu."
Shanyu was surrounded by his personal guards. Although Qin Bi was powerful, he could only shoot and kill his personal guards. It was unrealistic to kill Shanyu, which was really unpleasant.
"It doesn't matter." Qin Yiren raised his eyebrows and said, "Just shoot me hard. It's lucky to shoot Shanyu to death. It doesn't matter if he didn't shoot Shanyu to death. There are two next levels."
This makes sense. Shooting and killing the crossbow formation is just the first pass for the Huns to escape. After passing the crossbow formation, they will face the fate of being chased by the Qin cavalry. After passing the Qin cavalry, there is also the pass, which is the most deadly.
Here, it is good to be able to kill Shanyu, but it doesn’t matter if it can’t be killed, because the function of the crossbow formation is to shoot and kill the Huns as much as possible to reduce the pressure for the siege.
"Cheep me! Shoot hard!" Zhu Hai roared with a mountain, and the blue veins on his forehead burst into anger. If the situation had not allowed it, he would have rushed up to chase him.
"Swish!" A sharp sound of breaking through the air sounded, and countless crossbow arrows suddenly appeared in the sky and covered the Huns.
Among them, a large part of them shot towards the Shanyu, covering the sky and like a big net, covering it hard.
"Ahhh!" Screams came one after another, and the Huns were constantly killed by arrows.
The personal guards' casualties were even more severe because this was a special place for the Qin army, so they would not be able to be killed or injured even if they were not severe.
In just a blink of an eye, the personal guards around Shanyu were killed and injured, and the Shanyu was about to be exposed. However, the personal guards immediately made up and surrounded the Shanyu in the middle again to protect them.
In this way, the Qin army's crossbow arrows shot in as if they were not worthwhile, and the personal guards were shot to death one after another, with heavy casualties. Despite this, as long as the personal guards died, the personal guards would be immediately added. Shanyu rushed north under the protection of the personal guards and soon escaped the range of the crossbow arrows.
"I finally escaped!" Shanyu let out a long sigh, and touched his forehead, and he bought a lot of sweat, which showed that he was thrilling to escape this time.
Looking at the personal guards beside him, Shanyu's heart sank. His personal guards were already dead. If he could not escape the Qin army's crossbow formation, he would probably be shot and killed.
His heart was very painful. These personal guards were all elites from all over the world, and everyone had great skills. More importantly, they were loyal to the Shanyu. The Shanyu was their heaven and their land. They had to do whatever the Shanyu wanted them to do. Even if they killed their wives, children and parents, they would not frown.
It is not easy to form such a loyal, reliable and extremely elite guard. After experiencing these casualties and injuries, if you want to return to the grand occasion of the past, you still don’t know that it will be the year of the Monkey and Horse Month.
As the Shanyu escaped, many Hun ministers were also inspired by the Shanyu's personal guards to protect the Shanyu and ordered their personal guards to protect themselves in this way, so they could escape.
Of course, the personal guards suffered a particularly great loss. Some ministers died under the Qin army's crossbow target because of the personal guards.
Looking back, Shanyu's good mood disappeared and he almost loaded it off the horse's back.
I saw that the road where he escaped was no longer a road. It was hell on earth, which was even more tragic than the Shura slaughterhouse. Countless Hun corpses were piled up into mountains, with corpse mountains and surging blood. It was so shocking and so terrifying.
This is a bloody road!
It is a bloody road paved with the bodies and blood of the Huns!
This scene is even more tragic than yesterday's battle and shocking.
"Grand Shanyu, go quickly!" A minister hurriedly reminded him.
"Yes." As the Xiongnu, the Khanyu did not bring welfare to the Xiongnu, but caused disaster to the Xiongnu. This made him feel very uncomfortable. The Chanyu's nose was sore and he really wanted to cry loudly. However, he had to resist the urge to cry, slapped his horse and galloped northward.
A group of ministers hurriedly followed behind him, and Shanyu began to run for his life again.
Touman frowned while galloping on the horse and began to ponder.
Shanyu saw it and asked, "Prince, what are you thinking?"
"Da Shanyu, this is not right." Touman felt something was wrong and said, "Qin Yiren was waiting for us in the north and even set up a crossbow formation. This is obviously not right."
"What's wrong?" Shanyu said disinterested and said, "The north is the home of the Great Huns warriors. If the Great Huns warriors don't return to the north, where else can they go?"
"Yes." This statement was immediately approved by a group of ministers, and he said: "No matter how high or far the eagle is flying, it must return to its nest!"
"I can't figure out what's wrong, either." Touman shook his head.
He just vaguely felt something was wrong, and he couldn't tell me what was wrong.
"Rumor!" While running away, a shocking sound of hooves sounded, which made the ground tremble.
"This is..." Shanyu and the others were very surprised. Looking at the sound, they saw a black wave sweeping over.
"The Qin army's cavalry?" After seeing it, the Shanyu and the others saw it clearly, were too shocked, and almost fell from the horse's back.
The Qin cavalry led by Li Mu came. Under Li Mu's command, the Qin cavalry lined up in an orderly battle formation, rushing like a tide, with a shocking momentum and murderous aura.
"That's Li Mu, this dog thief!" When Shanyu saw Li Mu, he felt resentment soared into the sky and almost burst into flames.
Li Mu dug up the ancestral tomb of the Xiongnu, and Shanyu would never forget it. He wanted to avenge revenge at all times. When he saw Li Mu, could he not be angry? Can he not be angry? Can he not want to avenge?
"The Great Shanyu, it's not the time to take revenge before you, run away quickly!" Some ministers were afraid that the Shanyu would not be able to help but act unwisely.
"Huh!" Shanyu took a long breath and forced himself to calm down. He looked at his group of people, all of whom were like a devastated dog, dejected and had no fighting spirit. If he was caught up by the Qin cavalry, he would definitely die.
Just now, he had just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth again. How could the word "shock" be so shocked? Shanyu was soaked in a basin of cold water on his head. His anger was extinguished in an instant, and he slapped the horse on his back and ran wildly.
The Hun ministers hurriedly followed, looking at their appearance, and they wanted to have their ribs and fly away.
Those who escaped slowly immediately became the dead soul under the sword of the Qin army.
"Swish swish swish!" The Qin army shot and killed with a crossbow from afar. The sharp sound of breaking through the air sounded like a piece, and dense crossbow arrows appeared in the sky and covered the Huns, and countless deaths and injuries were heard.
The Qin army not only had powerful crossbows, but also used handbows for individual soldiers. Although the power of the handbows is not as powerful as the crossbows, it is also a powerful weapon to suppress the Huns' cavalry and shooting. Its range is farther than that of the Huns' bows and arrows and has stronger penetration. How could the Qin army not prepare for such a powerful weapon? In order to fight the Huns, the Qin army used a large number of handbows, and the cavalry was one by one.
After shooting with a crossbow, the Qin army's bows and arrows were powerful. The Qin cavalry's archery skills were great and they shot a lot.
Speaking of the way of riding and shooting, the Huns are the greatest authority in this regard. Their riding and shooting are definitely not under the Qin army. However, at this time, the Huns were like dogs with no fighting spirit. They dared not fight with the Qin cavalry, but they could only escape.
After the bow and arrow, the Qin army's sword was slashed and killed the Huns.
