Chapter 276: Falling Apart

Walking heavily among the corpses everywhere, every time you step down, you will feel your feet sinking slightly, which means that the blood has soaked the ground and softened the soil.

When He Lanxiong appeared on the battlefield with several hundred cavalrymen, it had been a whole day since the massacre. He didn't dare to show his face until it was confirmed that the Qin army had already left. In front of him, even a bubble couldn't be turned over.

In front of him was a Shura field, an eighteen-story hell. Except for the soldiers who died in fierce battles, most of them were chained together one by one and fell there in groups. These people had already put down their weapons, but in the end There was no escape from death. The Helan soldiers following behind He Lanxiong could barely move. This was the first time they saw so many corpses stacked together, and this was their comrade.

He Lanxiong saw Li Juguiyao, the guy he had vowed to trample on and humiliate severely, his bright armor was still so conspicuous in the crowd of dead bodies, there were dozens of blood holes on his body, among those she His feather arrows have been pulled out, those bloody holes are so terrifying, he is lying there on his back with his hands tied behind his back, his eyes are wide open looking at the sky, he can't rest in peace.

Although he hated Li Tingguiyao to death in his heart, He Lanxiong felt no joy in his heart at this moment. He slowly knelt down among the corpses of the Huns all over the ground, howled to the sky, and tears flowed from his eyes uncontrollably shed.

"Patriarch, let's go, maybe the Qin army will rush back again sometime!" Someone walked up to He Lanxiong and said in a low voice, this time, they were able to get out of the catastrophe, thanks to He Lanxiong's instant support Inspired, he thought of the battle that made him famous with Gao Yuan two years ago. The soldiers slowly gathered around and looked at He Lanxiong with admiration and awe. If they had acted together with the large army , then now, those lying here will definitely have their corpses.

"The people of Qin won't come anymore, they must be besieging the king's army!" He Lanxiong slowly stood up straight, wiped off the cold water on his face, and looked at the direction where Qin's army was going. Court location.

"Collect feathers, clean water, eat food, let's go!" He Lanxiong looked at the hundreds of cavalry under his command.

"Patriarch, where are we going?"

"Where are you going?" He Lanxiong smiled bitterly, "Where else can we go, let's go home. Bring as much feather arrows and fresh water and food as possible, and don't want anything else!"

Hearing He Lanxiong's words, everyone stared at each other. After a long while, someone dared to say: "Patriarch, those belongings?"

"No more!" He Lanxiong yelled: "What time is it, are you still thinking about property? You want money or your life, don't you know how far we are from our old camp after crossing Huolan Mountain? Drag these Things, can we run fast? On this road, can you guarantee that you will not meet the Qin army? Lost, lost. "

Seeing that He Lanxiong was bursting into anger, all the subordinates were silent, yes, compared to life, property is nothing.

Seeing his subordinates quickly rummaging through the dead bodies for feather arrows, clear water, and dry food, He Lanxiong turned his head to look in the direction of Wang Ting. He knew that the King of the Huns was finished, in other words, the Huns were also finished. Qin Jun this time The attack was completely a replica of Gao Yuan's attack. He Lanxiong could even deduce that the Qin army was definitely not waiting for the Huns cavalry at the royal court. one strike.

Several hours later, the hundreds of cavalrymen of the Helan tribe who had escaped by chance hurried on their horses and disappeared into the vast grassland under the leadership of He Lanxiong.

On the other side, Wang Xiao, who had just killed tens of thousands of captives, led the Qin army all the way to the depths of the grassland, killed tens of thousands of Huns, and let them capture a large number of horses. save their energy to the greatest extent.

"Father, the soldiers are too tired, and more and more are falling behind. Can we let them take a rest first, sharpen their knives and chop firewood well? How can we still have the strength to go into battle even if we arrive at the battlefield like this? "Wang Jian looked at the team dragging like a long dragon, and said to his father Wang Xiao worriedly. Wang Xiao's approach was completely contrary to the military law that he had been given to him. During this journey, the Qin army hardly rested. During the day, he only rested for two hours at most, and the rest of the time was spent on his way. During the time he was talking, Wang Jian saw that several soldiers fell off their horses due to extreme exhaustion. .

Wang Xiao glanced at his son and smiled, "Do you think that what I am doing now is completely contrary to the way of the art of war?"

"Yes, father!" Wang Jian lowered his head, although he thought so in his heart, he didn't dare to speak out against his father.

"Son, soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. The so-called art of war is just for your reference, not for you to memorize. Any art of war must be determined in light of the reality and needs of wartime. Just like we are rushing desperately now, It seems to violate the law of war, but it is more in line with the needs of this battle!" Wang Xiao looked at his son and said: "We don't need to fight, we just need to appear behind the Huns, and we will be the last to crush them. a blade of grass."

"My child understands!" Wang Jian nodded as if he understood something.

"Defeat the Huns quickly, and then return to Hangu Pass. If Hangu Pass is still there, the worst result is that we return to rescue Xianyang. Every time we buy now, it will make us safer in Daqin "Wang Xiao waved his hand, "Go, urge our soldiers, let the soldiers sing the battle song, cheer up and move forward, keep moving forward until we meet the general!"

The majestic battle song rang out on the grassland, and tens of thousands of people sang in unison, the momentum was extremely astonishing. Amidst the reverberating battle song, the exhausted Qin army mustered all the strength in his body, and continued to advance all the way forward.

The Green Sea is a huge freshwater lake in the area controlled by the Huns, and it is also the source of life for the Huns to survive, and this is also the place where Li Xin chose to die for King Yemang of the Huns.

The Green Sea is more than a hundred miles away from the location of the King's Court of the Huns. At this time, the King's Court of the Xiongnu has turned into a pile of ruins in the raging fire. Li Xin's tactics are the same as when Gao Yuan annihilated Rato Bay's tactics were the same.

When the exhausted Huns came here, they would definitely stop to recuperate, eat, rest, and replenish water sources. This is the best time for the Qin army to launch an attack.

The most exhausting time for a person is not during a long journey, but after a long journey and after a short rest. Li Xin is well aware of this, so he chose the battlefield of the Green Sea, which the Huns cannot live without. side.

When tens of thousands of Huns cavalry stopped to rest on the Green Sea, when the Huns saw the flying flag of the Qin Army suddenly appearing from the distant horizon, and saw the soldiers of the Qin Army slowly approaching from all directions, their breaths Almost stopped.

Mounting, impact, the howling of sharp arrows, the shouts of soldiers, and the collision of weapons all resounded through the Green Sea not long after. As the battle progressed, the extremely clear water of the Green Sea turned red little by little.

King Yemang of the Huns and several of the largest tribal soldiers of the Huns were surrounded by the Green Sea on three sides, and behind them was the boundless lake of the vast Green Sea.

At this time, Li Xin had 100,000 infantry and 20,000 cavalry, while Ye Mang had only 50,000 cavalry left. The only thought that supported their hard work was that they were still behind them, and there was an endless stream of blood from Zhao Guodai. The Xiongnu cavalry returning from the county, as long as they arrive and attack from inside and outside, there is hope of defeating the Qin army.

So when the Qin army led by Wang Xiao appeared in the green sea, the last thought of the Xiongnu soldiers was also shattered. After the hope was shattered, the next thing was to be defeated. When he appeared on the bank of the green sea, the great battle had already been declared over.

Yemang summoned up his courage and led more than ten thousand royal cavalry to break out of the encirclement, while most of the others were almost wiped out by the green sea. Only a very few escaped from the sky, but these people who had dominated the grassland for countless years The big tribe, from now on, has also been declared to be a term in the long river of history.

On the bank of the green sea, under the banner of the Qin Army's Central Army, Li Xin finally showed a smile on his tense face as he watched the Huns cavalry that had been disintegrated. For this huge plan, the country has concentrated all its efforts and carried out a series of countless strategic deceptions. Today, it has finally achieved fruitful results. From today onwards, the Xiongnu will no longer be an unstable factor in Qin's backyard. , It is no longer possible for them to accept bribes from the six countries of the Central Plains and not make trouble when the Qin army is preparing to march eastward.

"Yingying!" he shouted loudly.

Behind him, a young general in his early twenties came out, "The end is here!"

"Did you see that Ye Mang has broken through?"

"I see!"

"Do you recognize him?"

"I can recognize it even when it turns into ashes."

"Very well, all the 20,000 cavalry of our army here will be paid to you. From now on, you will keep biting Yemang until you bring his head back to Xianyang. As long as this goal is achieved, we will spare no effort. cost."

"Understood, General!" Yingying's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Yingying, do you know why?" Li Xin's tone softened suddenly, and he asked softly.

"General, because Yemang is a banner of the Huns, if he does not die, he will definitely gather the Huns to his banner again, and a wounded wolf will be more vicious, so we must take down the wild wolf. Once Mang Yefang dies, the Huns will have no one to call on the heroes of the county, and the grassland will be torn apart, and they will never pose a threat to our Great Qin again." Yingying said loudly.

"You're right!" Li Xin said with a smile: "That's exactly the case, so Yemang must die, we can't kill the Huns completely, then let them fall into fragments forever, and the future In the village, as long as there is a powerful tribe that has the potential to unify the Huns, we will kill them in the cradle, so that they will never come out."

"The general is wise."

Li Xin laughed suddenly, "The most important thing is you, Yingying, this attack will be your first time commanding a battle, I hope you won't ruin your father's reputation." He lowered his voice and said in a low voice : "Bring back Yemang's head, and your status will be unshakable. We Qin people have the most important military merits."

"Thank you, General!" Yingying's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light. Yingying is the third son of King Qin Wulie. (To be continued.
