Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 185 The Huns Attack

Zhang Chunhua was very unwilling.

This Zhang Dutong can teach his brother Zhongda, but he can't teach himself.

In the next few days, she followed Zhang Sui from time to time.

Zhang Sui was almost losing his temper because of her following him.

Just when I was beginning to feel overwhelmed, someone from the Sima family arrived.

After Zhou Sheng from Chaoge County received the letter from Yan Liang, he temporarily let go of his hatred.

He knew that Yan Liang was one of the two generals most trusted by Yuan Shao.

Now, Yan Liang is leading the cavalry in Yewang County and can reach Chaoge County at any time.

Although he was a powerful person in Chaoge County.

However, at this distance, he really didn't dare to collide with Yan Liang's cavalry.

If he angered Yan Liang, when the enemy cavalry arrived, his entire family would suffer.

The people sent by Sima Fang asked Sima Yi and Zhang Chunhua to leave with them.

When Sima Yi left, he seemed reluctant to leave.

Zhang Chunhua looked at Zhang Sui with resentment on her face.

Zhang Sui watched the two men leave with the Sima family and then heaved a sigh of relief.

If he doesn't leave, he'll go crazy.

Even if he was beaten to death, he would never teach Zhang Chunhua to write about Liu Bei.

It’s okay to fool Sima Yi.

If you fool Zhang Chunhua, she’s a woman, you don’t know how it will end in the future!

On the eleventh day after Sima Yi and Zhang Chunhua left, the cavalry training ended.

The Huns are coming again!

According to the battle report from the scouts ahead, the Huns have sent nearly 10,000 cavalrymen to attack this side.

Obviously, the Huns were not good at intelligence and did not know that cavalry had been deployed in Yewang County.

The military supervisor Ju Su was stationed in Yewang County and sent Wen Chou with 3,000 infantrymen out of the city to prepare to fight the Huns.

The purpose of this battle against the Huns was not to kill them, but to give Yan Liang's cavalry an opportunity to observe and let them quickly become familiar with the Huns' combat style.

Although there were various books recording the battles of the Huns before.

But books are books after all.

How can it be better to see it with your own eyes?

Yan Liang, along with the three generals and six minor generals, rode away on horseback and rushed to the west of Yewang County to join Wen Chou's army.

Zhang Sui followed Yan Liang and others to command the rear army.

Wen Chou led an army of 3,000 and marched less than three miles forward when they encountered the vanguard of the Xiongnu cavalry.

The Huns obviously did not expect to encounter infantry during their invasion of Henei County!

Moreover, there aren’t that many people!

Just three thousand soldiers.

They have 10,000 cavalrymen coming this time.

By killing these 3,000 infantrymen, they could seize a large number of weapons and even some armor.

These are what the Huns urgently need.

This group of Huns was originally summoned by General He Jin to kill the Ten Eunuchs.

Because of the rush, they didn't bring much food.

The Huns also lacked sufficient food and fodder.

Who would have thought that when they arrived near Hedong County, before they reached Chang'an, they discovered that General He Jin had been killed.

The entire court was in chaos, and it officially entered an era of war among the princes.

They could neither reach Chang'an nor retreat.

Because their way back was blocked by the princes.

They could only collude with Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County.

Because Hedong County was completely unable to provide sufficient food and fodder, this group of Huns continued to invade the nearby Henei County, robbing women, supplies, and people from Henei County as slaves, and even killing government officers and soldiers, seizing weapons and combat supplies.

Now, these three thousand people are in front of them and are the hot cakes in their eyes.

In their view, these three thousand people must be the troops organized by the aristocratic families of Hanoi County.

It's just to send combat supplies.

The vanguard troops directly surrounded the army and sent people to urgently ask for help from the army in the rear, preparing to surround the army and completely defeat it, and then continue to invade Hanoi County and rob supplies.

Wen Chou immediately ordered 3,000 infantrymen to stop and surrounded the outermost area with 30 chariots.

All the chariots were overturned.

Behind the chariots was a shield wall, and behind the shield wall were long-handled weapons.

The Hun vanguard continued to launch attacks around the 3,000-strong army.

However, they were unable to break through the defense.

Until the next 7,000 cavalry arrived to help.

Ten thousand cavalrymen surrounded the three thousand troops and continuously launched attacks.

Wen Chou led the army to hold out firmly on the defense.

Yan Liang signaled the three major generals and six minor generals to remember the fighting style of the Xiongnu cavalry.

The siege lasted nearly half an hour.

The three thousand infantrymen were unable to hold out and began to suffer heavy casualties.

In the direction of Yewang County in the rear, more than 5,000 archers rushed out.

This step was obviously unexpected by the Hun cavalry.

There are more than 8,000 archers in front and behind, and it is unknown how many enemies are inside the city.

If we continue the siege, we might suffer heavy losses.

The Xiongnu cavalry were quite unwilling and had no choice but to withdraw.

The archer infantry reinforcements from Yewang County gave chase.

However, their speed was far behind that of the Hun cavalry.

Not long after, ten thousand Hun cavalry quickly left under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Zhang Sui followed Yan Liang and others back to the military camp.

The military supervisor Ju Su also came this time.

Everyone gathered around the military inspector Ju Su to study the combat methods and evacuation of the Xiongnu cavalry.

Afterwards, the three thousand cavalrymen underwent a month-long intensive training against these Huns.

A month later, the Huns were obviously unwilling to give in and attacked again.

Ju Shou and Wen Chou continued to fight back as they did last time.

The Huns had to retreat again.

A month and a half later, the Huns attacked again!
This time there are not only 10,000 cavalry, but also 10,000 infantry from Hedong County!
There are also various siege weapons.

It is obvious that Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County, also took action.

However, with the help of the high and thick walls of Yewang County, the 10,000 infantry of Hedong County and the 10,000 cavalry of the Huns did not gain any advantage.

The army attacked the city for nearly an hour but failed to shake the city wall of Yewang County.

In the end, the 10,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry of Hedong County had to leave in disappointment, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.

July 12, the second year of Xingping.

Zhang Sui was training vigorously with the cavalry when a secret report came from the direction of Hedong County: The emperor, supported by countless ministers, fled all the way to Hongnong Port!

Li Jue and Guo Si led their troops in pursuit.

According to reports from spies, with the strenuous mediation of General Dong Cheng, the emperor is preparing to cross the river from Hongnong Port to the north and temporarily seek refuge in Hedong County!
The military supervisor Ju Shou made a decision immediately and all the troops rushed to a high ground by the river in Yewang County.

Yan Liang, accompanied by three major generals and six minor generals, rushed to the destination. Military inspectors Ju Shou, Wen Chou and more than a dozen others had already arrived.

From a distance, you can see countless small boats gathering in the direction of Hongnong Port.

Ju Su pointed in the direction of Hongnong Port and said in a deep voice: "Commen, I have called you here today for no other reason."

"It is to let you witness the fall of the dynasty."

"This court can no longer be saved."

"If we want to live in a peaceful and prosperous world, we can only gather under the banner of our lord."

The generals remained silent.

Time passed bit by bit.

Until dusk, thousands of small boats were densely packed at Hongnong Port on the opposite bank in the distance.

Some of the noble families near Hongnong were urgently dispatched.

There were also emergency assistance from Hedong County on the other side of the river.

Ju Shou looked at the Hongnong Port across the way. There was no one ferrying people there at this time. He sighed and said, "If we want to escape to Hedong County, we have to transport people across the river as soon as the boat arrives."

"But they want to gather all the boats together and wait to cross the river together."

"Once Li Jue and Guo Si arrive, the consequences will be disastrous."

"The emperor is incompetent."

"The civil and military officials around me are all pedantic."

Ju Su's face turned pale as he said, "With a court like this, what hope do we have?"
