Chapter 309 Turn defeat into victory
Bama grabbed the soldier and was so angry that his eyes were splitting. "Aren't there a hundred thousand slaves in the rear? How could the Jianwei army be allowed to come in?"
"Those slaves are useless, and they can't stop the Jianwei cavalry at all. The defensive line formed by the Jianwei cavalry was broken through in one charge." The soldier said with a grimace.
"General, run away quickly. If you don't leave, it will be too late!"
Hearing this, Bama became even more angry and slapped the soldier on the head, knocking him to the ground.
"So what if he breaks through my main camp? I still have the left and right camps, with a combined force of 100,000, and I can still destroy these useless gangsters!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another soldier ran in, half-kneeling and cupping his hands, saying: "Report to the general, the remnants of the Dagan Front Army gathered and launched a sneak attack on our left camp. The left camp suffered heavy losses, and the Dagan Eighth Army successfully broke through. Got it!"
"Pfft!" Bama spit out a mouthful of blood immediately, her eyes full of unwillingness.
After he used the reserve battalion and cavalry to defeat Lu Xiaoming's former army, in order to support the left and right battalions as quickly as possible, he did not let the cavalry continue to pursue the fleeing Daqian soldiers.
This resulted in that although the former army led by Lu Xiaoming suffered heavy losses, many people still managed to escape.
After Lu Xiaoming escaped, he quickly gathered the remaining troops and gathered nearly 20,000 people, all the while keeping an eye on the Xiongnu camp.
Now that the 100,000-strong army in Jianmen Pass was attacking, Lu Xiaoming naturally could not stay idle. He immediately led the gathered 20,000-strong army to launch a sneak attack on the Xiongnu Zuoying.
The Xiongnu's left camp originally had 50,000 fewer troops than the Eighth Route Army. Although it surrounded the Eighth Route Army, it was still very difficult.
Lu Xiaoming's sudden sneak attack instantly tore a hole in the encirclement.
After the breakout, the morale of the Eighth Route Army was greatly boosted. They cooperated with Lu Xiaoming to attack the left camp of the Xiongnu, and soon defeated the 50,000 Xiongnu in the left camp.
Bama's face was ashen, and his heart was full of unwillingness. He was almost able to annihilate Daqian's army, but unfortunately he failed in the end.
At this time, the main camp was breached, and the left camp was too busy to take care of itself. Only the right camp was left to fight alone. He lost this battle!
Bama was not an indecisive person, and when she saw that there was no hope of a comeback, she immediately stopped staying.
"Blow the shofar and ask everyone to retreat to the main camp. Notify the cavalry and ask them to retreat toward the Chimu River!"
After saying these words, Bama immediately ran out of the king's tent. At this time, there were soldiers outside the king's tent who had prepared horses for him.
Bama didn't have much to worry about at this time. He retreated everyone back to the main camp in order to hold back the Jianwei cavalry who had broken through the main camp, so that he and the remaining soldiers of the cavalry could escape.
Bama immediately got on his horse, turned around and ran away. This scene happened to be seen by the blue tiger who was charging all the way.
Although Lan Hu didn't know Bama, he saw Bama running out of the king's tent with his own eyes, so he must be an important person.
Thinking of this, Lan Hu immediately chased after him on horseback.
Bama was also a famous warrior of the Huns when he was young. Although he is old now, his courage is still there.
Bama was also unstoppable along the way, killing dozens of Jianwei cavalry in succession, and fought his way out of the main camp.
At the same time, other Huns troops who received the order were slowly moving closer to the main camp.
Although the Xiongnu suffered heavy losses, there were still tens of thousands of soldiers left. If the Jianwei cavalry continued to stay in the main camp, they would probably be sacked.
Thinking of this, Lan Hu had to give up the pursuit of Bama and quickly mobilized the Jianwei cavalry to fight towards the front battlefield, intending to join the 100,000-strong army led by Zhu An.
At the same time, on the frontal battlefield, Zhu An took the lead, holding a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, killing Hun soldiers one after another.
Although his body was covered in blood, there was no fear in Zhu An's eyes, only full of murderous intent.
The cowardly Zhu An has become a thing of the past. At this time, Zhu An only has one idea in his mind, which is to eliminate all those who stand in his way!
At the same time, because the prince personally went into battle, all the Daqian soldiers were fearless and fearless, their morale was high, and their combat effectiveness was doubled compared to usual!
The total number of soldiers in the reserve camp and the main camp is less than 50,000, and they will soon be unable to resist.
As Lan Hu led his men to kill from the rear, the main camp's frontal defense line was completely breached, and the Hun soldiers stationed in the main camp were killed to a bloody pulp.
Soon, the Xiongnu soldiers from the left and right camps also came closer, followed closely by the Eighth-Nine Army and Sanyang Army, completely surrounding all the Xiongnu troops in the main camp.
At this time, all the Hun soldiers in the left and right camps suffered heavy casualties. Their total number was less than 60,000, and their morale was extremely low.
Although the Eighth Army and the Sanyang Army also paid a heavy price, they only reduced their numbers by less than one-third. With the addition of Zhu An and Lu Xiaoming's troops, there are still more than 250,000 Daqian soldiers left. .
Such a huge disparity in military strength left the Huns soldiers with no fighting spirit. In addition, the general Bama had fled, and many Huns soldiers chose to lay down their weapons and surrender.
Zhu An did not kill them all, he graciously accepted the surrender of the Huns army, and those Huns soldiers who did not surrender were beheaded on the spot!
After counting, there were more than 53,000 Xiongnu soldiers who surrendered. All of them were escorted back to Jianmen Pass by Zhu An.
The Huns captured countless Dagan people as their slaves, and this time Zhu An also wanted to let them taste what it was like to be slaves!
Finally, Daqian defeated the Xiongnu, and the more than 200,000 soldiers in Jianmen Pass cheered and admired Hao from the bottom of their hearts.
Although Yu Hao was not present, they defeated the Huns according to the plan made by Yu Hao. This is the real strategizing and victory thousands of miles away!
At this time, in the hearts of the soldiers at Jianmen Pass, Yu Hao was a god-like existence!
Of course, Zhu An's status in the hearts of the soldiers has also been greatly improved.
After all, in Zhu Song's dynasty, Zhu An was the only prince on the battlefield.
Although Zhu An was powerless, he seemed to be a different person after he entered the battlefield. Every time he charged, he was at the front.
If not for being moved by his fearless spirit, Daqian's army, which was about to be defeated, would not have turned defeat into victory so easily.
His performance on the battlefield won the respect of many soldiers, including Lu Xiaoming and Lan Hu.
As the second generation officials in the court, they naturally knew what kind of person Zhu An was. Let alone asking him to kill someone, Zhu An would not even dare to ask him to kill a chicken.
But there must be forty or fifty Huns who died in Zhu An's hands today!
Even some battle-hardened veterans may not have such a record!
At this time, Zhu An's prestige in the army instantly reached its peak, even surpassing Liu Changdao, the commander-in-chief of Jianmen Pass!
Zhu An also saw the transformation of the soldiers, which also magnified Zhu An's ambitions infinitely.
At the same time, a crazy idea suddenly emerged from Zhu An's mind: "Lu Xiaoming, mobilize the troops and leave 50,000 people and wounded soldiers to continue guarding Shaheguan. The others will escort the Huns' prisoners of war back to Wuhan with this prince."
