Han Khan

Chapter 80: Hunter Becomes Prey
Zhang Sheng saw more than 4,000 cavalrymen rapidly chasing Koza into the camp. They were extremely fast, running on their horses and shooting arrows at this side.

It seems that these Tatars really intend to take advantage of the situation after they know that the Jin Han people have occupied the Great Lakes Basin.

Having not rested all night, they were prepared to take advantage of their rest and defeat the Jin Han people in one fell swoop, seize the Great Lake Basin and the livestock and population of the Jin Han tribe, as well as the Naxingguchuwuti people captured by the Jin Han people.

What a good plan!

Zhang Sheng was filled with hatred towards these Tatars!

"Disperse, disperse, don't step on the traps and trenches!" Koza said to the guards and light cavalry beside him.

Upon hearing this, the guards and light cavalry immediately divided into two columns, like a circle, and calmly rushed into the camp built last night.

Of course, there were some fools who disobeyed orders and immediately fell into the trench outside the camp and never got up again.

After rushing into the camp, Koza and others quickly dismounted, turned into infantry, and kept shooting at the pursuing Tatars!
Many Tatar cavalrymen who did not stop because of their fast speed fell into the trenches immediately or were stabbed to death by sharp chevaux de frise.

Yin Shanxiong, who was on the south side of the camp, saw the Tatars entering the camp. He immediately put down his iron mask and led the 900 elite cavalry behind him to gallop eastward.

They want to block the enemy's retreat to the east!
At this time, Zhang Xibao in the north also shouted loudly to the nine hundred elite armored cavalrymen behind him: "The emperor's guards, the holy warriors of Lord Haotian, for the emperor, for Haotian, follow me to charge and kill the enemy!!!"

"Haotian is great!"

All the Jinhan people followed suit and shouted: Haotian is great...

The enemy was a little panicked for a moment, but after seeing that there were only about 900 cavalrymen, they calmed down!
But it also gave Koza and others the opportunity to distract the enemy's siege!
Even though their arms were very sore, they were still trying hard to aim at the enemy and shoot the arrows in their hands.

There were not many elite Tatar soldiers wearing armor. Most of them were clan leaders and their naqours. The rest were only wearing cow, sheep or horse hide coats, which could not be called armor.

The 900 guards and 700 to 800 light cavalry led by Koza were protected by fences and trenches in the camp. They were not on horses at this time, and the accuracy and intensity of their shooting were much higher than that of mounted archers.

So many Tatar cavalrymen in the front row fell off their horses. Seeing this, a Tatar leader wearing a fur felt hat and iron armor sent a group of cavalrymen with lassoes to rush towards the camp. They were going to use the lassoes to pull open the chevaux de frise.

At this time, a regiment of armored cavalry led by Zhang Xibao on the north side was already on the enemy's right side, shooting arrows continuously.

The leader seemed a little angry and humiliated, and he quickly sent troops to attack and drive away Zhang Xibao and his men.

He was determined to capture the tens of thousands of Guchuwuti captives not far away and incorporate them into his own tribe.

But what made him dumbfounded was that those Kuchuwuti people who were captured by this unknown tribe actually walked towards him unarmed.

It turned out that behind these tens of thousands of prisoners, more than a thousand cavalrymen were driving them forward and forward.

The Tatar leader Timur looked at the scene in shock. He understood that these two or three thousand people were just cannon fodder and the enemy didn't care about their lives at all.

Looking at the desperate Guchuwuti people who were getting closer and closer, walking quickly towards this side, some of them who fell behind were killed by the cavalry of the tribe behind them with bows and swords.

"Too cruel!!"

Timur knew that he could not defeat this tribe that had not rested for a day and a night with just over 4,000 cavalrymen.

He couldn't allow his tribe to suffer any more losses. He had to withdraw his troops before they suffered too much. Otherwise, the elders in the tribe would never let him go.

But when he was about to order a withdrawal, the guards led by Zhang Xibao gave up using bows and arrows to shoot the enemy.

They picked up the lances hanging on the saddles and began to move slowly towards the Tatars. As the distance got closer, the spears that were originally upright like an ordinary forest were laid flat one after another. The speed of the war horses became faster and faster, and they charged towards the center of the Tatar army.

Timur hurriedly shouted: "Retreat, retreat to the left." After that, he took a few nakers and more than a hundred cavalrymen, turned his horse's head and galloped to his left, that is, the south.

Seeing this, Koza in the camp hurriedly led the guards and light cavalry on horseback, ready to chase the enemy.

Zhang Sheng quickly stopped him and said:
"Don't chase the enemy. You have been exhausted. Now you take care of these Kuchuut prisoners. Bonek and I will lead the guards and cavalry behind us to chase the enemy!"

"I obey your command!" Upon hearing this, Koza nodded and took over the responsibility of guarding the prisoners of war with the cavalry.

The 900 guards led by Zhang Sheng and the ten centurions of cavalry had already rested their bodies and replaced their war horses.

"My guards, Jin Han's newly promoted centurions, decanters, and warriors, let's charge at the enemy and kill them all.

Do not be afraid of death. Haotian will be in the ninth heaven to welcome the warriors who fight for the Holy Religion and the Emperor. There you will have endless wine to drink, endless food to eat, and endless bliss to enjoy!

So, my warriors, do not be afraid, for your emperor is right before your eyes.

I will always be at your forefront, charging forward with your Emperor!

Haotian is so great! ! "

After hearing Zhang Sheng's fanatical words, these warriors shouted loudly with fanatical expressions.

They rushed towards the Tatars, constantly drawing arrows and throwing them into the air.

As the distance got closer, they put their bows back into the pouches at their waists, picked up their lances, aimed at the Tatars in front of them, and prepared to charge hard!
But these Tatars were also proficient in the art of turning back. They shot arrows backwards as they retreated!
And without the trouble of the weight of armor, he ran actually faster than Zhang Sheng and the others!

At this time, Yin Shanxiong and nine hundred other people, who had been guarding the Tatars' retreat route, were riding on horses, drawing their bows and arrows. The dense arrows shot from behind directly frightened the retreating Tatars.

The Tatars' retreat was not intended to be a real escape, but to attract the army led by Zhang Sheng, who was chasing them desperately, and then turned around and gave them a heavy blow.

But unexpectedly, they were the other party's prey at this moment!
From the north, east and back, three elite cavalry units surrounded them because they did not notice the presence of Yin Shanxiong and others.

So they had no time to attack, and their retreat was instantly interrupted. Three elite cavalrymen surrounded them in the middle.

They did not rush forward to attack the Tatars, but instead surrounded them from a distance and shot arrows at them, causing the Tatars to fall off their horses one after another.

At this time, the fighting style of both sides was completely cavalry and archery. When the Tatars were moving too fast, Yin Shanxiong and others in the front would turn back in time to block them.

The Tatar leader Timur also realized at this time that the enemy was surrounding and attacking them in a hunting manner.

As more and more tribesmen and men fell off their horses, he became more and more anxious.

He regretted very much, regretting his greed that had provoked this powerful enemy. Because of the enemies' iron armor, it was difficult to kill them with the arrows in his hand.

He thought that this unknown tribe must be very tired after fighting all night. If he raided them at this time, he would not only be able to occupy the fertile pastures in the Great Lakes Basin, but also gain more subjects and livestock.

Unexpectedly, the enemy set a trap for him. He led 4,000 troops to attack, but was surrounded and beaten by more than 3,000 enemies!
Looking at the tribesmen and troops falling off their horses one after another, the enemy's lethality was really too strong.

"woo woo woo woo!!!"

As a dull horn sounded, Yin Shanxiong and others, who had been blocking the Tatars in the front and slowing them down, put back their bows and arrows, picked up their lances, and then quickly rushed out for a distance, turned their horses' heads and charged towards the Tatars!
