Chapter 373: The Battle Achievement Shocked Liu Bang and Others
Chapter 373: The Battle Achievement Shocked Liu Bang and Others
The old saying that there will always be brave men when there is a big reward has been vividly demonstrated at this moment.
Maodun threw out a few big pancakes.
The performance of the Huns could simply be described as crazy. They were like a group of enraged wild beasts, with red eyes and howling sounds coming from their mouths, rushing forward desperately.
The surging momentum was like a flood that broke through a dam, seeming to swallow up everything in its path.
Standing on a high place, Huo Qubing was like a towering mountain, standing there steadily.
He looked calm and composed, looking down at the Hun soldiers charging like ants below.
The enemy came on with great force, surging like a tide, but there was not a trace of panic or fear on Huo Qubing’s handsome face.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing an extremely cold smile.
“Well, since you are not afraid of death, then come on! This general wants to see who is more powerful! But… I would rather you don’t run away like cowards!”
As the distance between the two sides gradually narrowed, when it reached a certain level, Huo Qubing, who had been keeping a close eye on the battle situation, suddenly lit up his eyes, as dazzling as a meteor across the night sky.
Obviously, the big fish has taken the bait!
Huo Qubing’s eyes were wide open, his hair was standing on end with rage, and his deafening roar seemed to break through the sky: “Hit me hard, and use all your firepower to the maximum!”
Following his order, in an instant, the attack firepower of the coalition forces of all dynasties exploded like a lit gunpowder barrel, and its power increased several times!
For a moment, guns and cannons roared, flames shot into the sky, and countless bullets, with sharp whistling sounds, rushed towards the Huns like a group of crazy wasps, covering the sky and the earth.
These bullets were densely packed, interweaving into a web of death, covering the entire battlefield.
In just a blink of an eye, those Hun soldiers who were originally so aggressive and charging forward fell down in large numbers at an astonishing speed, like a wheat field swept by a strong wind.
Some had their bodies riddled with holes and blood splattered everywhere; some were simply knocked to the ground by the huge impact force, unable to get up again.
Maodun, the Huns’ Chanyu who had been watching the battle from afar in the rear, was panicked. The situation was obviously good, but in the blink of an eye it turned into a horrific bloody massacre.
His eyes widened with a look of disbelief, the anger and shock in his heart were simply beyond words.
Maodun was so angry that he was shaking all over. He tightly grasped the whip in his hand and waved it desperately, while shouting hoarsely at the top of his voice: “Damn it! We have been fooled! Quick, give the order to retreat immediately, and let all the warriors in front retreat!”
However, now that things have come to this, how easy is it to get away with it unscathed?
The firepower of the Wanchao coalition was so fierce that it was like a net of death, constantly reaping the lives of the Huns.
The Hun soldiers who tried to escape were either hit by bullets and fell to the ground dead, or were blown to pieces by artillery fire.
The battlefield was filled with the strong smell of gunpowder and the pungent smell of blood, and the shouts and screams were heard one after another…
The military advisor standing next to Maodun was also shocked by the tragic scene and thought to himself, “What kind of magical weapons are these Han people using? They obviously no longer have traditional bows and arrows, but why can they continue to fight so continuously and efficiently?”
Just when the military advisor was puzzled, Huo Qubing, who was far away, had already seen all the changes on the Huns’ side.
He smiled contemptuously and said sarcastically: “Hehe, you’re thinking of running away now? It’s too late! Follow me and chase them, don’t let any of them go!”
After saying that, Huo Qubing jumped down and led the highly motivated coalition forces of all dynasties behind him to chase after them like a tiger descending from a mountain.
Seeing his men falling in a pool of blood one after another, Maodun’s heart felt as if it was burning with anxiety.
However, faced with such a tragic battle situation, they were helpless and could only watch their troops retreat.
In desperation, Maodun had to lead his remaining subordinates to flee in panic. They fled in all directions like frightened birds.
At this time, the Hun army had already attacked halfway up the mountain with great momentum, getting closer and closer to the top of the mountain.
Because the retreat was too hasty, many Hun soldiers lost their balance in panic and rolled down the hillside. For a while, screams were heard one after another, and countless people fell and were injured.
Li Jinglong was holding a telescope and staring at Maodun closely.
When he saw Maodun approaching the foot of the mountain and about to dive into the woods, he quickly turned to Huo Qubing beside him and asked anxiously, “General Huo, should we take this opportunity to give Maodun a headshot and completely solve this big problem?”
Huo Qubing shook his head slightly and replied calmly: “Don’t worry. The Xiongnu soldiers are already fleeing in all directions. Even if there are hundreds of thousands of pigs in front of us, it is not easy to catch them all. Let’s spare Maodun’s life for now and let him gather the scattered Xiongnu remnants together to save us trouble.”
Li Jinglong couldn’t help but say after hearing this: “As expected of the famous Champion Marquis in history, he is very thoughtful. I wonder what Maodun would think when he knows this?”
“I guess he wants to ask if there’s any hard work pay.”
At the same time, Liu Bang, who was witnessing the development of the battle on the mountain, finally relaxed his tense nerves a little.
Before this, when he saw the Hun army pressing forward step by step, he had already made the worst plan in his mind, and was ready to send Fan Kuai and other brave generals to fight in the battle.
Unexpectedly, although this coalition army composed of many dynasties was not equipped with traditional swords, bows and crossbows, the powerful power displayed by the guns in their hands was truly jaw-dropping and far exceeded everyone’s expectations.
In the blink of an eye, the Hun soldiers fell down one after another like wheat fields blown down by the wind.
Its speed is beyond imagination and cannot be achieved by ordinary bows and crossbows.
The battle situation, which originally seemed to be extremely unfavorable to their side, unexpectedly changed drastically in an instant.
Liu Bang stared at the scene in disbelief with his eyes wide open. He couldn’t help but exclaimed sincerely: “Is this the hot weapon musket you mentioned before? It is indeed extremely powerful!”
Emperor Jing of Han, who was standing by, did not show the slightest surprise at the defeat of the Xiongnu. After all, it was incredible that the coalition forces of all dynasties, armed with such powerful firearms, could not win.
“Grandpa Emperor is right. These weapons that look like simple sticks are actually called firearms, which are a relatively common type of firearms. They are much more powerful than bows and crossbows, and are very efficient when used to kill enemies!”
Liu Bang could not help but sigh and said, “Alas, if I had such a sharp weapon when I attacked Xiang Yu, I would not have to go through such a difficult battle.”
At this moment, Fan Kuai and several other famous Han generals, who were on Mount Baideng and anxiously waiting to join the battle, were all shocked after seeing this scene.
When the battle just started, they saw the Hun army coming with great momentum and they couldn’t help but feel a sense of foreboding.
However, when they found out that the coalition forces of all dynasties did not care about the Huns at all, their mood instantly plummeted to the bottom. They felt a chill rising from their spines, and they didn’t know how many times they had greeted Huo Qubing’s ancestors.
No one expected that this battle would take on such a shocking outcome.
As the battle progressed, people became more and more surprised, their mouths opened so wide that an egg could fit through them!
It was so easy that it made people feel that the coalition forces of all dynasties were not fighting at all, but were just doing daily training with ease.
The soldiers of the Wanchao coalition were all calm and composed, their steps were steady, their movements were clean and neat, and their coordination was seamless.
What is even more amazing is that there is not even a trace of panic on the faces of these soldiers.
Those with good eyesight could even notice that some people seemed to have a look of comfort and enjoyment on their faces, as if this battle was just a piece of cake for them.
The final result of the battle stunned everyone present. The allied forces easily suppressed the Xiongnu army, and their own casualties were almost negligible.
You know, Xiahou Ying and others are all experienced warriors. They have experienced countless battles, big and small, but they have never seen such a disparity in the battle situation.
The gap between the two sides is obvious, they are not on the same level at all.
During this period of time, they have deeply experienced the powerful strength of the Huns.
Every time we fought with the Huns, it was dangerous and we could lose our lives if we were not careful.
Therefore, in every battle they could only defend desperately and dared not slack off in the slightest.
In order to hold on until now, they have tried their best and used all possible strategies and tactics.
However, even so, several people had no idea whether they could hold on until the reinforcements arrived.
At this moment, Fan Kuai breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and said, “It seems that we have thought too much before. This army must be an absolutely reliable friendly force!”
The words were filled with surprise and relief.
Xiahou Ying agreed: “With the strength he has shown so far, it won’t be that difficult for him to deal with us, the Han people.”
This battle also made several generals under Liu Bang let down their guard.
Huo Qubing did not lead his troops to pursue very far.
Go back to the hillside and start cleaning up the battlefield.
The Hun corpses were burned on the spot.
Otherwise, a plague will break out and the consequences will be disastrous.
On Mount Baideng, Liu Bang’s tent was extremely lively, with bursts of laughter and joy emanating from it.
Liu Bang smiled and clasped his fists, saying, “Today is really an eye-opener for me! I never thought that your subordinates would have such powerful strength. The Huns are no match for them. I am really envious of them!”
Zhu Di raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile and responded: “Old Liu, there is no need to be envious. In my opinion, in a few years, you can also be equipped with the same advanced weapons as us.”
“Really…really?”
Liu Bang opened his eyes wide, his face full of suspicion, as if he couldn’t believe what he had just heard.
After all, how could such a powerful weapon be easily handed over to others for use?
Isn’t this just asking for trouble?
Emperor Jing of Han said, “Grandpa Emperor, it is indeed true! My grandson has basically replaced all of his weapons with firearms and cannons. As for cold weapons such as swords, spears, and crossbows, they still exist but are rarely used.”
Hearing this, Liu Bang was immediately very excited and shouted excitedly: “That’s great.
If the Han Dynasty had these hot weapons to help, it would surely be able to wipe out the Xiongnu in one fell swoop and avenge its previous humiliation!”
At the same time, Liu Bang was thinking secretly in his heart.
If we have hot weapons, what’s the point of using the feudal system and laissez-faire to rule?
When the time comes, I will let the world see what it means to be domineering.
Anyone who dares to disobey will be shot!
Thinking of this, a look of pride appeared on Liu Bang’s face.
“Brother Zhu, what should we do next?”
Zhu Di smiled slightly and said, “We just need to wait slowly. I see that you are short of food and grass, and many soldiers look malnourished. The most urgent thing is to get some food so that the soldiers can have a good rest.”
“Thank you, brother. No matter how much food you eat, I will make up for it when we get back.”
“Hahahaha, Xiao Zhu, did you hear that? Someone is going to reimburse you.”
Zhu Ming chuckled and said, “Notify them that they can eat as much as they want today.”
Maodun led the defeated soldiers, who were in a mess and had lost their armor, and rushed into the dense and deep forest at the foot of the mountain in a panic.
Only after confirming that there were no pursuers behind him did the heart that had been hanging in his throat finally settle down a little and he let out a long sigh.
“Damn it! What on earth is going on?”
Several counselors nearby could no longer suppress their anger and confusion and started shouting.
“Khan, the army that is fighting against us today cannot possibly be the subordinates of old Liu Bang.” One of them analyzed with a frown.
Another counselor immediately echoed: “That’s right, Khan, the weapons and armor they use are completely different from the equipment commonly used by the Han army.”
“Yes, Khan. There is another very strange thing. The weapons of these guys are too strange. They look like sticks, but they can easily kill our soldiers from a distance without relying on arrows. It is really incredible.” Someone else added.
“Khan, the situation has changed and the situation is unclear. It is better to withdraw the troops.”
After hearing this, Maodun did not express his opinion immediately, but fell into deep thought with a gloomy face.
After a long while, he slowly said, “What you said makes sense. But before that, the most urgent thing is to find a way to quickly gather those subordinates who have been scattered in the chaos and regroup our forces.”
Looking in the direction of Baideng Mountain.
Liu Bang was there.
With Liu Bang as the big fish, Maodun finally did not withdraw his troops.
However, the situation was unclear and Maodun was wary, so he withdrew his camp thirty miles away and sent people to investigate.
It is dozens or even hundreds of miles away from Maodun.
Many motorcycles are speeding.
If you look closely, you can see that these motorcycles seem to have drawn a huge circle, surrounding the Hun army.
