Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 233 I still have to fight (Happy Chinese New Year, book lovers)
In terms of the total strength of this group, there are more than 4600 Hun cavalry in total, and they naturally would not emerge from the ground.

In fact, it was just the army sent by Punu Shanyu, the current king of the Huns, more than a month ago; after a long journey, they finally came to Khotan.

Among them, the specific composition includes 1000 elite cavalry of Punu Shanyu Jinzhang.

The Baiyang King, Zhelan King, Fuli King, and Luhu King under Minmin Tedahu led hundreds of cavalry, totaling more than 4600 people.

Zhaernen, the chief of the Huns, acted as the supreme commander of this team.

Along the way, especially after entering the Western Regions; like Yang Dongli and others, they all adopted the method of hiding and marching.

The difference is that people from modern planes such as Lao Yang along the way are not as cruel as the Huns; only when they encounter horse bandits and sand bandits, they will be killed directly.

If you encounter herdsmen, you will just grab them and move with the army, so as not to leak the news.

In the past few days, they have only restricted their actions, and have not robbed them of the cattle and sheep that they depend on for survival. Even the food is provided by the army.

They even released these herdsmen after they received the beacon summons just now.

But it is a completely different approach for the Huns. Since entering the Western Regions, they will bypass far away except for some cities.

The barbarians you meet along the way don't care who you are or which country you belong to?All of them were killed and clean, and all the cattle and sheep were used as army rations.

It can be said that the way they came here was full of thick blood.

And the army of the Huns, although it is only now that they have arrived here.

However, the news of their arrival passed through Kuaima with a small number of people, and notified Ke Biya, the unrestrained envoy of the Huns who was resident in Khotan, in advance.

Therefore, during the attack of Khotan's soldiers before, Kebiya saw that the situation was very bad.

In the first moment, he risked his life to fight a bloody road, so as to join this army of his own.

Because as long as he joins the army, not only can he survive, but he can also easily reverse the original bad situation.

The Huns' army of 4600 people, among which there is even a thousand-man team of the Golden Tent, can already be regarded as a terrifying force in the Western Regions.

I am afraid that only a few small countries in the Western Regions can unite to have the power to resist.

If you want to defeat them, you need more small countries to unite.

Fortunately, at the moment when the war horses were running to death, he finally met the vanguard of his own army; after he got down safely, the first thought in Kirby's mind was not revenge.

Instead, he came back with an army and snatched the glass handicraft from Ban Chao.

As expected by Hu Biao and others, these Huns who used wolves as their totems could not refuse such a treasure at all.

Even the importance of this treasure is far higher than killing Ban Chao for revenge and destroying Shanshan.

Because in the eyes of the Huns, such a magical treasure can only be condensed after the Sirius God left a part of his soul in the world.

Therefore, after hurriedly explaining the importance of the glass wolf handicraft to the leader Zhaer Nen Wanfu.

Zharnen also understood one thing: whether he can kill the envoy of the great Han this time, destroy Shanshan and restore their reputation as the Huns in the Western Regions, this point is no longer important.

The most important thing is that the god statue that Sirius God left behind in the world must be obtained.

As long as he got it and successfully brought it back to the golden account, then he and Ke Biya would never have to worry about their prosperity and wealth for the rest of their lives.

Anyway, the two of them were sinners of the Huns, and being put into bags and trampled to death by horses was the best result.

After making up their minds, the two led the army and rushed back.

When on the way, when they suddenly saw the traces of Ban Chao and others, they were as excited as if they saw a flying wild dog, and chased them desperately.

Fortunately, just like Hu Biao and others didn't know the existence of these Hun army beforehand; they also knew nothing about the existence of Yang Dongli's army of bald robbers.

When the two sides bump into each other suddenly, it will be very exciting.

******
This was indeed the case. After Hu Biao and others fled for twenty miles, the army led by Lao Yang and others finally appeared.

After seeing the size of the Huns' army, poor Comrade Yang almost peed out of fear.

The main reason is that among the large army under his command, the cannon fodder of more than 1600 people is all placed around at this moment.

Today, there are only 118 confidants and indigenous subordinates, and more than 1200 war slaves.

This is still worrying about the 1200 war slaves. If they are released rashly to search for the Huns' envoys, some of them may take the opportunity to run away.

Otherwise, the number of people around him can only be fewer.

Therefore, even if Yang Dongli led more than 1300 people behind him, when he passed the method of observing the army and vaguely estimated that the number of the Huns in front of him was at least 4000, he was panicked.

Looking at the past from a distance, I saw that the central army of the Huns was very elite, and the troops on the two wings seemed to be much stronger than the cannon fodder under his men.

In short, after some cursory observation.

Yang Dongli could find out that the elite Huns in Yishui on the other side were more than three times their strength, so this battle was very difficult to fight.

It can only be to order the entire army to stop advancing and prepare for battle.

Let the several messengers around you blow the bullhorn so loudly that the cannon fodder who had been scattered before quickly gather together so that they don't get knocked out one by one.

As for whether they can be gathered in time, will those fishing guys run away immediately seeing the momentum of the Huns?
Frankly speaking, Yang Dongli is not very clear, he can only hope that the situation will not be too bad...

Fortunately, Zhaernen, the ten thousand husband of the Huns, and Ke Biya, the envoy, were in high spirits, and suddenly saw the army that suddenly appeared.

Facing these weird opponents that suddenly appeared, I was also very compelled for a moment, and immediately sounded the clarion call for the whole army to stop advancing.

In this way, the armies of the two sides stopped and confronted each other with a distance of about five or six miles.

It's not that they stopped fighting, but that the war horses on both sides are already quite weak after running for a long time; before the battle, the war horses must be slowed down to recover their horsepower.

Immediately, almost everyone on both sides jumped off their horses in the first instant.

Not only did he tidy up his weapons and armor, but also put the weapons in the most convenient place for him, so as not to let him make mistakes in the fatal battle that he was waiting for.

He even took out handfuls of fine horse feed such as beans and wheat grains from the bag, and fed them together with the water in the water bag.

It doesn't matter if you are not full, these war horses can't be hungry.

Anyway, it is to make the best use of his war horse in the upcoming battle.

And in such a process, the cannon fodder of Hu people from small tribes who were scattered to the surroundings continued to return to the area where Yang Dongli was located.

In a panic, he joined the army.

After such a process, after about half an hour, no one continued to come back.

Yang Dongli, Feng Rui and the others made a careful count and found that there were only a hundred or so people. They didn't know if they were too late to return, or they ran away early and didn't come back.

But just these people who came back also brought their current total strength to about 2900.

It was also after seeing this large number of people, although Ban Chao and Hu Biao were a little surprised, how did Yang Dongli and the others recruit so many people.

But more importantly, after seeing so many soldiers and horses, and some people's excellent equipment, they felt that they could do it again.

2900 against 4600, with a gap of 1700 troops.

Except for a small number of personnel, the Huns are obviously more elite.

Although our side has many disadvantages, it is not without advantages. For example, in terms of equipment and tactics, it is obviously much stronger than these Huns.

What the hell!After the above thoughts flashed through their minds, Hu Biao and the others cheered up again: They may not necessarily lose this battle, they still have to fight...

　PS: In the new year, I wish all book lovers good health, brilliant career, and safe and happy families...
