Chapter 604 Wuhuan People Go South

After Xu You and Tadun reached an agreement, they immediately wrote a secret letter and ordered the five scouts to change horses and horses along the way. The three horses galloped back and forth towards Yecheng. More than a dozen war horses galloped almost day and night, and it took less than five days to reach Yecheng, but half of the horses were exhausted.

After Yuan Shao saw Xu You's secret letter, he immediately ordered the officials and troops from Yuyang and Shanggu to withdraw to Youbeiping, under the command of his second son Yuan Xi.

On July 16, Tadun swore an oath at Bailang Mountain and set out, commanding an army of 50,000 people. The troops were divided into three groups and invaded Hebei. Tadun himself led 23,000 cavalry and joined the invaders from Shanggu County. His Excellency Su Puyan led 15,000 cavalry and joined the invaders from Yuyang County. Another group of 12,000 cavalry was commanded by Wu Yan, who also came from Yuyang County. The invasion of Yuyang County was by a different route than that taken by Su Puyan.

Shanggu County, Ning County, Sanchuan Township.

The calm ground suddenly shook violently, and loess was flying in the distance, and dust was everywhere, as if there were some huge monsters and monsters rushing from afar to set off a sandstorm that would destroy the world.

Boom!

As we got closer, we realized that they were not monsters and ghosts. What was shrouded in the yellow sand was a group of cavalry. They looked different from the Han people. They had rough faces, large pores, thick hair, and left-folded hair. They were on the grassland. The Wuhuan people.

This is a partial army of the Wuhuan people, with about five thousand people. The leading general is tall and thick, wearing a tattered leather jacket, and under the leather jacket is a pierced armor, which attracts people from time to time. The surrounding knights looked enviously.

Not everyone among the Wuhuan cavalry can wear armor. The Wuhuan people lack craftsmen, so it is difficult for them to produce their own armor, and most of them trade with the Han people. However, the Han people were fine with other items, but military supplies such as armor were strictly prohibited from trade. Once someone was found hiding armor, it would be tantamount to rebellion, let alone selling it to the Wuhuan people.

This Wuhuan general, who was wearing crotch armor, holding a golden gourd, and carrying a riding bow, was Tadun's confidant Nanlou. He was a rough and brave man, and he was loyal to Tadun, so he was very popular. I believe that this time the troops were dispatched and they were ordered to be the vanguard.

"Sir, there is a Han village ahead."

A Wuhuan scout came forward on horseback, stopped his horse after a dozen steps, and shouted to Nanlou.

"Han village?" Nanlou chuckled, held the golden melon bone, and looked around. The Wuhuan cavalry beside him also had salivating expressions on their faces. They all showed their weapons and looked at Nanlou, just waiting. He gave the order.

"Yes." Nanlou nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered: "Gaisupu!"

"I'm here, what are your orders, sir!"

After giving the order, a brave man rushed out from the Wuhuan cavalry, holding a big ax, and rushed to Nanlou impatiently.

"You lead a team of 100 people to massacre that Han village." Nanlou sneered: "After occupying this village, I will take a short rest, then go straight to the county seat, break the county seat, the gold and silver jewelry inside, Han women They are all ours!"

"Yes!" Centurion Gaisupu was overjoyed: "My lord, please stay here for a moment. A mere Han village will be razed to the ground in less than an hour and a half."

Many Wuhuan officers on the side were quite jealous and lamented Gaisupu's good luck in not being able to be ordered to attack by Nanlou.

"Gaisupu, be careful. Don't die on the belly of a Han woman before you can enter the county."

Gaisupu laughed loudly: "I think you want to die on the belly of a Han woman, right?"

As soon as these words came out, all the Wuhuan cavalry laughed heartily, and Nanlou also laughed.

"Children, massacre the village!"

Gaisupu raised his arms and shouted loudly, turned around and left. Nearly a hundred people immediately jumped out of the Wuhuan cavalry formation and rushed out after Gaisupu. Gaisupu's centurions galloped on horseback. They all had one person and two horses, so there were two hundred horses galloping across the earth for just a hundred people, and the momentum was not small.

As we kept running, a Han village gradually appeared in front of us. It seemed to be meal time, so smoke was rising from the chimneys of every house. The men, who had worked hard for a day, carried hoes and walked home with tired smiles. They were chatting with each other, and someone's watchdog in the village seemed to have seen his master coming back, wagging his tail excitedly and walking back and forth.

Working at sunrise and resting at sunset, men farmed and women weaved, talking about mulberry and hemp. This would have been a warm and ordinary scene, if not for the annoying sound of horse hooves.

"Oh ho!"

"Kill the Han people!"

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, hundreds of Wuhuan cavalry came from afar and stared at the Han man in front of them with excitement in their eyes.

The farmer carrying the hoe was shocked when he saw them, and his face turned ashen.

"What's great! The Wuhuan people are here."

"Run quickly, they want to kill people!"

"You silly boy, what are you still doing here? Let's go!"

Seeing a group of Wuhuan people rushing over, the farmers walking in twos and threes suddenly became confused, dropped their hoes and ran away. Some young farmers were so frightened that their legs became weak for a while. The experienced farmers hurriedly grabbed them and urged them to run away.

A Wuhuan man stretched his bow and nocked an arrow, aiming it at the back of a panicked farmer. Although he was constantly bumping on the horse's back, his hands were extremely steady and seemed motionless.

Whoosh!

"ah!"

The running farmer was hit by an arrow. The bone arrow penetrated his back fiercely, and the arrow came out from his chest. He fell heavily to the ground, bleeding profusely.

"Shoot a Han to death!" the Wuhuan people roared excitedly, raising their arms and shouting. The surrounding Wuhuan people were equally happy when they saw this, and they looked up to the sky and roared, extremely excited.

Whoosh whoosh!

The Wuhuan people grew up on horseback and were good at riding and archery. Although they were constantly bumping on the horseback, practice made perfect, and their archery skills were extremely accurate. They could almost hit the target within fifty steps. Dozens of Wuhuan cavalry were running and shooting. Most of the peasants who were running were shot to the ground, hitting their vital points. They wailed for a while and then stopped. Their bodies were just twitching slightly with the inertia, and the blood oozing out of the wounds became more and more. There are fewer and fewer people coming, but the ground is getting redder and redder.

"Woof woof woof!"

"Giggle!"

The Wuhuan people were massacred, and the village was naturally in a state of chaos. A guard dog saw its master shot to the ground and jumped out in anger.

"Ouch!"

The dog was eager to protect its owner and jumped out into the air. It bit Wuhuanren's leg with two rows of open teeth, cutting open the skin and flesh. The Wuhuanren screamed in pain and grabbed a hammer and hit it hard. On top of this dog's head.
