Since he wanted to exterminate the clan, how could Xu Rong really leave a way out for Hu Chuquan? The reason why he let go was to avoid the Huns fighting to the death caused greater casualties. However, this side was intercepted by Zhao Yun outside the city. The trap had been dug up when the horses were chaotic in the city. Hu Chuquan rushed out of the way and was stopped by Zhao Yun.

Cold sweat kept oozing out of his forehead. How could Zhao Yun, Hua Xiong, and Zhang Liao, the generals Hu Chuquan, not know about it?

Especially Zhao Yun, the Huns believed that power was the supreme. Zhao Yun led his army to march several times and shot a silver spear. I don’t know how many Hun warriors hated him. Hu Chuquan had seen Zhao Yun with hundreds of people kill tens of thousands of people’s cavalry formations. His bravery left a deep impression on Hu Chuquan.

Zhao Yun was not many people, and with the glimmer of dawn, there were only two or three hundred people, but they were blocked at the city gate, surrounded by dense horse pits, and the cavalry could not rush through them and could only fight in the field.

There were more and more shouts of killing behind him, and a large number of Huns were driven here to escape from this seemingly gaping position. Hu Chuquan gritted his teeth and dragged them down. When the Han army's large group of troops arrived, there was really no place to escape. He gritted his teeth and said, "Dropping off the horse and rush!"

The city gate is not big. Although Zhao Yun only has two or three hundred people, if he shoots, he will definitely suffer a loss. The Han army's use of bows and arrows is more than one level stronger than the Huns. At that moment, the tiger roared, but did not rush up directly, but directed people to rush up.

"Kill~" A group of Huns jumped off the horse's back and rushed towards Zhao Yun with their weapons.

"Shoot the arrow!" Zhao Yun snorted coldly, and the three hundred soldiers behind him were divided into three rows. Everyone held a two-stone crossbow and began to pour crossbow arrows towards the city gate.

It was not a sequel. Zhao Yun divided the crossbow soldiers into three rows, one row for each hundred people. After the first row was shot, he quickly retreated and installed crossbow arrows, and fired in the second row. After the third row was shot, the first row had completed the installation of crossbow arrows and could continue shooting.

This kind of shooting method has been used since the pre-Qin period, and the effect is very good. For a time, arrow clusters flew, countless Huns rushed over, and then fell on the way to charge. The distance between thirty and fifty steps was very powerful. The arrow cluster was also new, with a blood groove on it, and it had a strong penetration power. It can usually penetrate the bodies of two or even three people. It was blocked by three hundred crossbowmen at a distance of less than fifty steps.

There were also smart Huns who fired arrows and counterattacked, but these crossbowmen were different from ordinary crossbowmen. They were wearing vine armor and were invulnerable to swords and guns. Unless they could shoot on the face, ordinary attacks would not have any effect. What's even more sad is that the Huns kept pouring out of the city gates. There were only a dozen people who could shoot arrows, and they could not form arrow formations, so the damage to the Han army crossbowmen was naturally even more minimal.

"Get on the horse and charge!" However, although he was unable to rush over, the trapped horse pit was blocked by the corpses of these people. Hu Chuquan was overjoyed when he saw this and did not care about the fallen soldiers. He turned over the horse and led the cavalry to step on the bodies of the Hun soldiers and began to charge.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun knew it was difficult to stop it. He immediately whistled and took three hundred crossbowmen to get out of the way, allowing these Huns to rush over.

Although he didn't understand why Zhao Yun let them go, he thought that only 300 crossbowmen could not stop the charge of the Hun warriors. Hu Chuquan didn't care about going to entangle with Zhao Yun anymore. The fighting sounds behind him were very close. He must escape as soon as possible and go to Jilu Village first. There was still a group of people there. Although there were not many, only five thousand warriors, there were these people who escaped to the grassland and could build a large tribe by themselves. Hu Chuquan had figured it out. Instead of going to join others, it would be better to raise the banner and work alone. Even if there was no previous glory, it would be better to live under someone's face.

The people from Jilu Village were not recruited together at the beginning. Now it seems that this decision was so wise!

Zhao Yun made way for the main road, but did not leave, but shot from the back. Now Ye Zhao's army began to refine the troops. In addition to basic training, these crossbowmen trained the most, namely the training of archery and crossbow formations. They are elite crossbowmen in the army. Each person bears six capsules, and each capsule has twelve arrows, totaling 72. As long as there is no dead light, they can continue to shoot arrows to shoot these arrow clusters.

It is also a new type of crossbow machine to launch arrows. Because it uses the principle of pulleys and machine wraps, the power required to launch arrows is much less. Otherwise, it is not easy to shoot a bag of arrows based on the power required by the old crossbow. At this moment, it is generally easy for these specially trained crossbows to eat.

"Boom~"

In front, a swaying mountain was shaking, and a large number of cavalry fell to the ground.

Hu Chuquan spit out the grass mud in his mouth in bad luck. The Han people actually dug a large area of ​​horse traps here, which is to drive them out!

There was a dense scream behind him, and Hu Chuquan didn't even want to see him. No wonder Zhao Yun didn't stop him at all. He turned out to be waiting here, and he didn't care about calling the Han people cunning and insidious. After Hu Chuquan got up, he rolled forward and ran forward. Anyway, there were a large number of people behind him, and Zhao Yun had only two or three hundred people. He could not kill so many people.

Zhao Yun really didn't chase him. He took the three hundred crossbows and retreated while shooting. After retreating to a safe distance, he lined up in a row to shoot arrows at the fleeing Huns. In Ye Zhao's words, this is called tax collection. When the enemy is not interested in fighting, there is no need to chase the enemy. He just shoots arrows at the passing enemies, which makes it easier for the enemy to escape, but in fact, the damage caused may be more than chasing the enemy. Because of this design, every time it is shot at the densest place in the crowd, the cluster of arrows with blood grooves can make people bleeding as long as they are shot, and they basically cannot survive. In this way, the actual damage caused by these three hundred crossbowmen is ten times or even more than the number of people.

After almost all the Huns escaped, half of the three hundred crossbowmen's arrow bags were not shot.

Xu Rong took his men out of the city, but did not pursue him. Looking at the bodies that were almost piled up on the ground, Xu Rong ordered people to start cleaning up the battlefield. As for Huchuquan who escaped, someone would clean up the Huns who even lost their horses. It was a dream to run away with their legs.

"Xiaozhi's plan is very good." Xu Rong brought Zhang Liao and Hua Xiong who were moving in, and Zhao Yun, who had been moving in, and Fa Zheng also came with his troops. Xu Rong exclaimed at Fa Zheng.

Originally, according to Xu Rong's estimate, this battle would have to be fought at least two more games before the Huns could be completely cleared out, but the casualties of the Han army would never be low. However, Fa Zheng's strategy saved Xu Rong a lot of effort.

"A general can only achieve such victory after strategizing. Zheng dares not be greedy for merit." Fa Zheng nodded and smiled.

"Rewards for merits are the rules in the army. Don't be humble in Xiaozhi. If Xiaozhi does not offer advice in this battle, we can defeat the Huns, and our army will suffer heavy casualties. After returning to the court, we will ask Xiaozhi for merits." Xu Rong was in a good mood and laughed loudly.

"However, the tactics in the army also opened his eyes, as if they were similar to the pre-Qin battle formation, but they were different!" Fa Zheng did not be pretentious anymore, but exclaimed.

The pre-Qin period swept across the six countries with advanced crossbows and eventually unified the world. This time, Xu Rong commanded the army, and was mainly crossbow formations, especially Zhao Yun's tax-collecting offensive method. If it weren't for the precious items of such elite crossbow soldiers and blood-trough crossbow arrows, it would be impossible for the Huns to leave this time.

However, if Zhao Yun had not only had 300 people, Hu Chuquan would not dare to be so careless and ignore Zhao Yun and break through directly.

"General!" In the afternoon, Zhang Liao came out of the city and said to Xu Rong: "In the battle last night, 30,000 Xiongnu soldiers and horses were killed, but nearly 50,000 Xiongnu soldiers and horses were captured. These prisoners..."

Even in the reversal, the 50,000 army at the beginning was only more than 30,000, and there were nearly 50,000 prisoners of war, which was difficult to deal with.

"Conquer his weapons and tie his hands and feet. In addition, gather all the men in the city and dig a big hole outside the city. Remember, it must be big enough!" Xu Rong said to Zhang Liao.

"Here!" Zhang Liao nodded and took the order and left.

Zhao Yun thought of something, looked at Xu Rong, opened his mouth, but finally said nothing, sighed silently, bowed to Xu Rong and said, "General, we have been in a row to fight, and I am a little tired. Please allow me to rest for a day."

Xu Rong glanced at Zhao Yun deeply, shook his head and sighed: "Zilong, the lord attaches great importance to you. Our army will inevitably fight against foreign races in the future. There are some hurdles, you must go through it."

Zhao Yun nodded, then bowed and said, "Please be sure of your kindness, General."

"You are allowed to have three days off and see me again in three days." Xu Rong nodded and waved.

"Here, I'll leave!" Zhao Yun bowed and turned around and left.

Fa Zheng frowned and looked at Zhao Yun, and said in confusion: "Why is General Zilong..."

"Zilong is too kind and has the resources of good generals, but sometimes, too kind and forgiven is not suitable for leading the army alone." Xu Rong now admires Fazheng's ability, so he is not as cold as he was at the beginning, explaining: "What kindness does not control the soldiers. If Zilong's character cannot overcome this hurdle, the lord may not be able to let him stand alone."

Be kind and forgive?

Fa Zheng nodded silently, but did not agree with Xu Rong's statement. Renshu is not a bad thing, and Ye Zhao did not kill all the wars in the past like this time. Ye Zhao was very tolerant of the Han people. Just like the Yellow Turbans, Ye Zhao had always killed only the evildoers to the Yellow Turban Army. Even Fa Zheng heard that when Zhu Ye wanted to massacre the Yellow Turban Army, Ye Zhao almost fought with Zhu Ye for this.

Ren Shu also depends on the partner. In Fa Zheng's opinion, Ye Zhao should just let Zhao Yun adapt here. With Zhao Yun's ability, he will definitely be the only one in the future.
