When the emperor comes to modern times, history collapses!
Chapter 374 Liu Bang was shocked. Is this how you fight a war?
Maodun led the mighty Xiongnu army to retreat thirty miles away like a tide, and then re-set up camp in an orderly manner.
He stood in the tent with a gloomy face, as if a heavy rock was pressing on his heart.
Until this moment, he still couldn’t sort out his thoughts and couldn’t understand why the Han army, which seemed so weak, would undergo such a drastic change.
As a result, this fierce attack ended in a complete defeat and a horrible outcome.
Tens of thousands of Hun warriors fell on the road of charge, and they could not even reach the enemy.
Maodun, who was full of worries, knew that the situation was urgent, so he immediately summoned his trusted generals to discuss countermeasures.
He frowned, glanced at everyone with a cold gaze, and said in a deep voice: “Everyone, now that things have come to this, what should we do next?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a battle-hardened general stepped forward, clasped his hands and said, “Great Khan, in my opinion, we might as well send an elite team to sneak into the nearby mountains and secretly scout the enemy’s intelligence. We must find out who exactly is fighting against our army this time!”
Another general immediately echoed, “In addition to this, we need to carefully check the weapons used by the other side. Judging from the injuries of some of the wounded, they seem to have been injured by something that looks like a piece of iron. This kind of strange thing has never appeared on the battlefield before, but it is quite similar to the hidden weapons commonly used by some people in the martial arts world. I dare to speculate that it may be a new and powerful and deadly weapon!”
At this time, another person stepped forward and calmly analyzed: “Although we suffered a setback in this battle, we cannot ignore that old Liu Bang is still trapped here and cannot move. I guess their food and grass are running out. Therefore, as long as our army continues to besiege tightly and defeats other Han troops that come to reinforce, victory will surely belong to us!”
For a moment, several trusted advisers expressed their opinions and offered suggestions enthusiastically, and the atmosphere in the tent was extremely warm.
While listening to everyone’s suggestions, Maodun fell into deep thought, thinking hard about a good strategy that could turn the tide of the war.
Looking from afar at the place where Baideng Mountain was, his eyes were filled with cold murderous intent, as if he wanted to swallow up the mountain.
After careful consideration, Maodun decided to abandon the strategy of forced attack until he had thoroughly understood the enemy’s situation.
Fear that rash actions may lead to greater losses and risks.
Although the previous battles had suffered setbacks and the Huns had suffered considerable losses, Maodun still had hundreds of thousands of Hun troops under his command, which made him feel confident.
The previous battle plan was overturned and replanned.
On the one hand, they were preparing to seize a series of strategic locations in the surrounding areas before reinforcements arrived;
On the other hand, tens of thousands of elite soldiers were dispatched to lurk quietly in an area of dozens of miles in radius, closely monitoring any slight movement.
At this time, the scene on Mount Baideng was quite different.
Waves of laughter and joy resounded through the mountains. Zhu Ming allocated a large amount of food and supplies from the era of Emperor Jing of Han.
Not only that, more than a dozen trucks of various fresh meats were transported up the mountain.
When the Han soldiers who had suffered from hunger for a long time saw the mountains of food in astonishing quantities and unlimited supply in front of them, their eyes widened as big as copper bells, flashing with excitement and joy, and they cheered.
Liu Bang stood aside, watching the scene, his eyelids twitching involuntarily.
He secretly wondered whether the granaries across the Han Dynasty could replenish the consumed grain in time.
Emperor Jing of Han seemed to sense Liu Bang’s worries and smiled to comfort him, “Grandpa, you don’t have to worry about this. These grains and grasses are all allocated by my grandson from my place. They are enough for us to eat for three whole days! When my grandson has high-yield crops, there will be enough food. Grandpa can pay it back slowly.”
Liu Bang laughed: “As expected of you, you are our holy grandson. Logically, the emperor cannot take your things, but the emperor cannot disappoint the filial piety of the holy grandson, so I accept it with reluctance.”
borrow?
That absolutely does not exist!
This clearly shows the grandson’s sincere filial piety!
Emperor Jing of Han was just about to open his mouth to explain that he was only borrowing it temporarily and would definitely return it in the future.
However, before he could finish his words, Liu Bang spoke first: “I have heard that you and your father jointly created the so-called Wenjing Reign. Well… In that case, when some time has passed, Grandpa Emperor will find a suitable opportunity and simply make your father the crown prince.”
After he finished speaking, Liu Bang’s bright eyes looked straight at Emperor Wu of Han and Liu Xie.
After all, if even the grandson has expressed his love so filially, then shouldn’t the great-grandson or even the younger generation who is many generations apart from him also show some appreciation?
Emperor Wu of Han sighed softly and said helplessly: “Father has already said so, so I will just cover the meals for three days.”
Seeing that both of them agreed, Liu Xie couldn’t refuse anymore, so he just bit the bullet and said, “I…I’ll do the same.”
Hearing everyone’s response, Liu Bang nodded with satisfaction, a smile on his face: “Haha, very good, very good, since you are so thoughtful, then I will no longer refuse, and I will accept your rare filial piety for the time being.
However, I am curious. I heard that each dynasty has produced a large number of emperors. Our Han Dynasty has been passed down for more than 400 years and has experienced many emperors. Logically, there should be a large number of emperors. Why didn’t any other Han emperors come today?”
“Grandpa Emperor, so far only a few of us have shown up, the others are nowhere to be seen!”
Hearing this, Liu Bang couldn’t help but show a trace of regret on his face.
He thought to himself: If there could be a few more emperors of the Han Dynasty, wouldn’t I be able to receive a lot of filial piety?
In this way, it would be a good thing!
Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, an hour and a half had passed.
Looking around, you can see many big Han soldiers lying lazily on the ground.
Everyone’s belly was bulging, like a blown-up balloon.
During the days of being besieged by the enemy, the army was in short supply of food and fodder, and the food supply to the soldiers was extremely limited every day.
At this moment, food is no longer rationed!
So, these soldiers naturally ate to their heart’s content.
Although the soldiers in charge of cooking repeatedly warned everyone not to eat too much or too fast and that meals would be served in this way in the future, this advice obviously did not have much effect.
The soldiers continued to do as they pleased. Not only did they fill their stomachs, but they also stuffed their arms with steamed buns, pieces of delicious meat and other food.
After all, no one can predict whether they will run out of food again in the future, so it is always a good idea to stock up on more food so that they can get through the difficult times.
Inside the tent, Zhu Di’s burning gossip heart could no longer be suppressed. He approached Liu Bang with curiosity on his face and couldn’t wait to ask him about the Chu-Han Contention and some unknown secrets of the early Han Dynasty.
Unlike other emperors, Zhu Di seemed to have a strong interest in traveling between dynasties, and was always keen on inquiring about various unofficial historical rumors and secret anecdotes.
“Nonsense, how could I throw my own daughter out of the car? This must be a smear campaign!”
When asked about pushing his daughter out of the car, Liu Bang retorted loudly as if his tail was stepped on.
“Haha, should we ask Xiang Yu here?”
Liu Bang stroked his chin and said, “I don’t think Xiang Yu here knows this. Looking at his appearance, he is obviously smaller than when he was fighting for supremacy.”
Zhu Di said regretfully: “It seems that there will be no answer to this historical question for a while.”
The few of them continued chatting.
Suddenly, the walkie-talkie on my waist rang.
“Reporting to the commander, the Second Special Operations Team has sent a message that they are now lurking less than five miles away from a Hun camp. There are about tens of thousands of Huns stationed there.”
Zhu Di stood up suddenly.
“Okay, now that we’ve had enough to eat and drink, we’re just worried about having nothing to do. Tell them to stay hidden. We’ll send a large army over at 16:.”
Walkie-talkies have a limited range.
However, almost every scout has a walkie-talkie and is scattered around. Although it may not be able to transmit intelligence in real time, it is much more convenient.
Soon, Zhu Di assembled 50,000 troops.
“I haven’t exercised for a long time. This time I will lead the team myself. Old Liu, do you want to go for a visit?” Liu Bang laughed: “Of course.”
After Fan Kuai and his men looked at each other, they stood up and said, “General, we, the generals, also want to lead the troops to fight.”
Zhu Di waved his hand and said, “You guys just go and watch the battle, forget about leading the troops, otherwise if you rush forward and shoot, you may easily injure someone by mistake.”
Zhu Ming took out the roster.
After determining who the second special forces team is.
Open the transmission channel.
Zhu Di led an army of 50,000 into the city.
The surroundings are desolate.
Zhao Yun, the captain of the second special forces team hiding here, is keeping a vigilant eye on his surroundings.
Suddenly, a large number of dark figures appeared around me.
Knowing that it was Zhu Ming who came with a large army.
“I have met the Marshal, the Potato King, and Emperor Gaozu of Han.”
“Where is the Hun’s camp?”
Zhao Yun pointed into the distance with a serious look on his face, the spear in his hand flashing with cold light, as if he couldn’t wait to charge into the battle.
Zhu Di, who was standing aside, raised the telescope in his hand steadily and looked in the direction Zhao Yun pointed.
Through the lens of the telescope, their vision gradually became clear, and as expected, the outline of the Hun camp could be clearly seen not far away.
“Well, this is a really big place!” Zhu Di put down the telescope and squinted his eyes to estimate the distance. “From here, it should be less than two miles away.”
Zhao Yun could not contain his excitement and said, “General, I heard that the battle will start at 16: today. I am afraid of missing the opportunity, so I quietly moved closer. But if I go any further, I am afraid the enemy will notice me.”
Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction and praised: “Well done!”
Fan Kuai and several other battle-hardened generals also gathered around. They opened their eyes wide and looked around in astonishment.
They were originally on top of a mountain, but in the blink of an eye they were in a relatively flat, desolate and open area.
When their eyes fell on the Hun camp in the distance, they were so shocked that they could not close their mouths.
Although these brave generals had experienced countless battles, they had never seen a way of fighting like this before.
Several people knew in their hearts that the outcome was already decided.
What we need to focus on next is how brilliant the final outcome will be.
The Hun spies scattered around soon noticed the sudden appearance of the Wanchao coalition army.
They were terrified, and their faces turned pale as if they had seen a ghost.
If only one or two people or a handful of people approached quietly, it might be possible to conceal the truth, but now there were tens of thousands of cavalrymen who appeared less than two miles away from the camp like a force of gods descending from the sky. This was truly beyond their comprehension.
“No, it’s an enemy attack!”
“Send the message back quickly!”
“Whoosh!”
A few faint sounds.
The Hun spy fell down immediately.
The arranged sharpshooter shot and killed several Hun spies with a silenced gun.
Zhu Di shouted, “Push them forward, don’t let any of them escape!”
The Huns had a lot of cavalry.
Most of the people who came this time were cavalry.
Such a close distance can be reached in a blink of an eye for those well-trained and lightning-fast cavalrymen.
At this moment, the Huns were still immersed in rest, completely unaware of the impending catastrophe.
The Huns thought that they had deployed many smart and capable spies within the area of dozens of miles. Even if they were really attacked by the enemy, they would be able to receive the alarm in time and quickly arrange a tight defensive formation to deal with it.
What they never expected was that Zhu Ming was completely unreasonable and suddenly appeared nearby with a huge army using magical teleportation techniques!
In an instant, as the coalition forces of all dynasties launched an attack with the force of thunder, tens of thousands of majestic and powerful horses galloped wildly at the same time. The sound of their hooves was like rolling thunder, shaking the earth.
Such a shocking noise immediately aroused the vigilance of many Huns, and they all turned their heads to look in astonishment.
When they saw the tens of thousands of cavalrymen rushing towards them with overwhelming momentum, they were all frightened to the point of turning pale and their souls flew away.
In a blink of an eye, the entire Hun camp fell into chaos.
Many Hun soldiers who hurriedly stood up and prepared to find their horses collided with each other. The chaotic scene made it impossible for them to organize any effective counterattack.
The allied forces of Wanchao advanced as fast as lightning. The soldiers, holding advanced rifles, pulled the trigger without hesitation and started shooting.
For a moment, gunshots resounded through the sky, and dense bullets poured down like raindrops.
Groups of Huns were seen falling to the ground screaming after being shot. The camp, which was already in a state of panic, became even more noisy and chaotic.
The battle was one-sided from beginning to end.
More and more Huns were terrified and without hesitation dropped the bows and arrows in their hands, knelt on their knees, surrendered, and waited obediently for their fate of becoming prisoners.
From the time the allied forces of all dynasties were successfully teleported here to the time the battle was finally settled, the entire process took less than a quarter of an hour.
The Huns were defeated.
There were several thousand casualties and forty thousand prisoners.
Liu Bang couldn’t help swallowing and said, “I didn’t expect that we could fight like this. The famous Xiongnu cavalry was vulnerable to a single blow.”
Fan Kuai and several other powerful generals wondered if they were dreaming and pinched their thighs hard.
Having fought with the Huns many times, the men knew very well how powerful the Hun cavalry was. Even in their dreams, they had never thought that they would be defeated so easily.
“I think beating my son is easier than this.”
“I never thought that we could fight like this. With this teleportation skill, who can be our opponent?”
“I was worried before, but now it seems that I was overthinking. Of the hundreds of thousands of Huns that went south this time, I don’t think many will return.” (End of this chapter)
