Straight man of steel

Chapter 405
Zhang Yuan was also stunned. The avant-garde prince came directly?

After Gongsun He heard Gongsun Ao's shout, he also stood up and searched among the chaotic crowd.

"General, it's Yu Dan, it's Yu Dan!
Yeah yeah, the Huns are crazy, they're crazy!
It's Yu Dan! "

Zhang Yuan didn't feel that the Huns were crazy, he felt that he was going crazy!

The Huns were so self-confident that they even sent their prince as the vanguard in this kind of tough battle.

Do they think they can escape after entering?

To be honest, if there is no Yu Dan, Zhang Yuan and Gongsun He may not fight recklessly with the Huns in order to reduce losses.

But Yu Dan is right in front of him, and most generals of the Han army will choose to exchange the 16 Han army in front of him for the Hun prince.

Remember when Huo Qubing went out to fight, why did he meet the main force of the Huns at the beginning?He found it himself?Or did the Huns take the initiative to find him?

Wei Qing's nephew is also Liu Che's nephew!
This will drive all the Huns crazy!

The same Yu Dan can make Han Jiang go crazy, usually there is no chance, but now Yu Dan himself sent him to the door, let him run away, when will there be such a great opportunity.

"Your Majesty told me that there is still a need for a Hun actor to dance, and I think Yu Dan is very good!
Pass down the order to catch Yu Shan alive, everyone knows what a reward is for catching Yu Shan alive!
General Gongsun He, I will give you command here, I will go to the platform and find a way to trap Yu Dan here! "

"General Ranger, do you have any idea?"

"Yes, but I don't know if it can be done, and you have to work hard here.

Let's work hard together, we will be the first to catch Yu Dan! "

"General Ranger, the last general requests to go into battle and be captured alive!"

Gongsun Ao suddenly knelt on the ground and asked Zhang Yuan to fight.

Zhang Yuan thought for a while, Gongsun Ao didn't have much IQ, but Yongwu was probably the number one among such a group of people, and the prince of the Huns would not be weak in force, so it was a good choice for Gongsun Ao to follow Yu Shan.

But what Zhang Yuan was worried about was that he didn't want to give this military achievement to Gongsun Ao. Zhang Yuan definitely didn't want to go back to Chang'an. Gongsun Ao's sand sculpture was the first achievement.

"General, the general will not compete for military merit in the end."

Gongsun Ao, who had always been dull, suddenly became smart at this time. Half or even one-third of the credit for capturing Yu Shan alive was enough to make him a Marquis, so why compete with Zhang Yuan.

"Okay, I hope General Gongsun Ao can be captured alive!"

The reason why Gongsun He did not die was because it no longer meant much to him. In fact, the credit for killing King Loufan belonged to him, Gongsun He. With this, he could be granted the title of marquis. No matter how much he had contributed, Liu Che would not give him more rewards. Otherwise, the reward will soon be unrewarded.

After Gongsun Ao left, Zhang Yuan ran to the platform to teach the peasants how to adjust the angle of the three-bow bed crossbow.

The bed crossbow is extremely powerful, if it is not aimed at people but at the ground, it can completely form a wall of arrows.

Zhang Yuan thought it was equivalent to rushing to the inside alone, and then let the three bows and bed crossbows be fired together, blocking Yu Shan to death in the crowd.

"Yes, yes, that's the angle. Only the main arrow is installed, and the others don't need to be installed."

Zhang Yuan's purpose is not to kill people, so naturally he doesn't need all arrows.

Soon the formation of the Han army changed. It was still a square formation around it, but it was round around Yudan.

The strength of the army array made Yu Dan change from active to passive, and the barrel army array has been slowly moving south.

Yu Shan also realized what had happened, and the eyes of the Han soldiers around him were red.

I knew that these were slaves of the big man.

A group of slaves, merchants, son-in-laws, craftsmen, a group of people with the lowest status.

What is Yu Dan?The title of Marquis!
How to keep people from going crazy?
He has reached the sky in one step, and now he is in front of people like them, who are at the bottom of society.

It is not an exaggeration to describe the current situation as a vicious dog.

"Crazy, all crazy!
Han people are crazy! "

The Battle of Mayi took place at night, and no one could tell who was who, and Yu Dan had never seen such a crazy Han army.

"Protect me and rush out, break out!"

"Hahaha, little Yu Shan, yeah, here you go, don't run away!

Fight with Yeye for [-] rounds! "

When Yu Dan was thinking about retreating, Gongsun Ao finally appeared and stopped directly in front of Yu Dan.

Gongsun Ao's voice is very familiar to Shan, and the two had met once during the Battle of Mayi.

Getting together again now is really a jealous enemy, but Yu Shan is not a person who is not afraid of death, his obsession with running away far exceeds his obsession with competing with Gongsun Ao.

Yu Dan just avoided Gongsun Ao, and the Huns cavalry around him kept rushing towards Gongsun Ao without fear of death to give Yu Dan a chance to breathe.

Zhang Yuan on the platform calculated the distance, and estimated that it was about the same. If he delayed and let Yu Dan run away, it would be a blood loss!
"Okay, just shoot straight from this angle!"

"Here!"

The rope controlling the three-bow crossbow was cut directly.

The arrow, more than one meter long and with barbs, shot out with a whoosh.

The sound of piercing the sky suddenly joined the ensemble.

The Huns suffered two big losses under the three bows and crossbows, and they all felt chills in their waists.

Why did the waist feel cold instead of the neck? It was all because the steel feathers at the tail of the arrows of the three-bow bed crossbow could cut them in half.

But this time their fear was unnecessary.

Except for some unlucky Hannu troops and Hun cavalry who were pierced by arrows, not many people were hurt.

But as the arrows shot more and more, a one-meter-high steel black wall appeared out of thin air on the battlefield.

War horses of this height can jump over in one leap, but they need to run up and sprint. The Huns cavalry were in a melee with the Han army and had no conditions for running up.

Therefore, the wall Zhang Yuan gave them was fatal to them.

"What's wrong with the Great Chanyu, the prince has fallen into the Han army's formation!"

Naturally, it was impossible for the Xiongnu to just let Yu Shan do nothing. They were always watching the changes on the battlefield, but the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly.

By the time the Huns realized something was wrong, Yu Dan could no longer run away.

"what happened?"

"The Han people may have discovered the identity of the prince, and they surrounded the prince desperately to prevent him from escaping."

It's better to die, Zhang Yuan, you have to work harder!

Yi Zhi leaned aside and kept cursing Yu Dan, this was the closest he was to the position of Great Shan Yu.

After Yu Shan was defeated, the military ministers had no particularly outstanding sons. In the end, the position of the Great Shan Yu almost belonged to Yi Zhixie.

Moreover, the position of King Zuo Xian was vacant, and Yi Zhixie, King Zuo Gu Li, could take over as the king.

As for the rest of the uncles of King Youxian and King Youguli, who were military ministers, they were almost dying of old age, and they were even less competitive.

"Pass my order to dispatch another [-] cavalry to rescue my prince!"

"Yes!"

Chu Da was also gloating at the scene, and he reckoned that Zhang Yuan's idea of ​​Yu Dan going to Jianzhang Palace to dance was about to come true.

"Untie Chu Da!"

The military minister suddenly chose to untie Chu Da at this time, which made Chu Da feel a little awkward.

When the cloth strip inside his mouth was pulled out, Chuda immediately thanked him.

"Thank you, Da Shanyu, for not killing me!"

"I wronged you before, don't get me wrong, I just want to test that Ranger General Zhang Yuan.

I heard that he has a good relationship with you, but now it seems that the relationship between the two of you is not very good. "

It seems that the military officials of the Xiongnu Grand Chanyu have investigated Chu Da to the bottom.

Fortunately, the big man is also hiding everything, otherwise there is really no way to get through.

"What Da Shanyu said is that the Han people like to steal and play tricks the most. Zhang Yuan and I are also superficial brothers. When it comes to mutual interests, the little affection will naturally dissipate with the wind."

"Oh, hehe, superficial brothers are interesting and interesting!"

The military minister tried to hide his inner panic with a smile. His own son was about to be captured alive by the Han people. How could he not panic.

Why he thought of Chu Da at this time was because he was also worried that Yu Dan would surrender to the big man if he was caught.

In short, the military officials would rather die in battle than hear the news that Yu Shan surrendered to the big man.

If Chu Da and Zhang Yuan knew about his idea, they would probably die of laughter.

Not only will he surrender but he will also dance.

The Huns sent another [-] cavalry. In fact, the pressure on the Han army was not particularly great.

Why did Gaoque become the first line of resistance against the Huns from the pre-Qin period?

This terrain was completely unsuitable for a large-scale cavalry charge. Fifty thousand Xiongnu cavalry had already been in contact with the Han army earlier. It would be in vain for the Huns to send another fifty thousand.

This does not mean that the Han army was not threatened, but the innermost barrel formation surrounding Yu Shan would not be hit by the impact of the [-] cavalry.

The 5 Hun cavalry coming from behind could only put pressure on the Hun cavalry in front. Originally, Yu Shan ordered to retreat, but in the end [-] Hun cavalry came and drove them forward vigorously.

Are you angry?
If Yu Dan could escape, he would end up with [-] cavalry on his side in front of him, and the speed of his escape would be slowed down along with him.

"Here comes the live target, all the arrows are loaded, and the angle is slightly raised.

Give me all the arrows today! "

"Here!"

The platform where the three-bow bed crossbow is located is not far from the battlefield, but on the hillsides on both sides.

All the trees on the road that the arrow must pass through have been cut down.

The position of the Gaoque pass is fixed, and the Hun cavalry can only rush in this direction if they want to attack, which provides convenience for the heavy and large weapon such as the three-bow bed crossbow.

Zhang Yuan saw that the Xiongnu had come to support him, so he re-arranged tasks for the peasants, and then quickly returned to Dianjiangtai.

There was no trace of nervousness on Gongsun He's face.

The simultaneous attack of 20 Xiongnu cavalry may destroy the Han army in one fell swoop, penetrate the military formation, cross the pass and enter the Hetao area.

But you come here in waves, aren't you just giving away heads?

Of course, the consumption of the Han army is also very large, almost in a ratio of one to one with the Huns cavalry.

But the Han army consumed the slave army with the worst combat effectiveness, while the Huns consumed the most elite cavalry.

The [-] regular army with [-] full body armor and extremely well-equipped weapons is still shooting back.

These 2 people are enough to withstand [-] Huns cavalry. If they are assisted by three bows and crossbows, they can fight hard against [-] cavalry.

"General, your arrow wall is beautiful.

Yu Dan had nowhere to escape this time. "

"Well, it depends on Gongsun Ao.

When Gongsun Ao caught Yu Dan, the Huns would either go crazy and attack us, or they would retreat first to find other countermeasures. "

"I'm afraid that they will go crazy and attack continuously for twelve hours. We won't be able to resist for a day."

"Look again, we are not that weak. We have the Yangshan Mountains at our back. At worst, we can retreat to the Hetao and fight guerrillas with them."

"What guerrilla?"

"The Huns have to cross the Yinshan Mountains and have to cross the Yellow River. If we take one step forward and one step back, we can still have a fight with them on the bank of the Yellow River.

But it depends on whether the military officials are willing to part with it. The 20 Huns cavalry are more than the total number of people in the tribes of King Loufan and King Aries combined.

After capturing Yu Dan, we found a head similar to Yu Dan and hung it on my banner.

The military official knew that Yu Dan was dead, so he shouldn't be so crazy. What he was worried about was Yu Dan's surrender.

If he was really worried about Yu Dan's life, he wouldn't have brought Yu Dan to us as a vanguard general in the first place. "

None of the military officials expected that Zhang Yuan had completely guessed his thoughts.

In fact, it is still a matter of knowledge. Emperors have been like this throughout the ages. They would rather their sons die in battle than surrender in humiliation.

Surrender would be a huge blow to the entire country and nation.

This is why Liu Che is keen to capture the leader of the Huns alive, and let the Huns do things under his own hands.

On the one hand, it is to show your mind, on the other hand, it is to show your strength and humiliate the Huns.

"I didn't expect you to think about our future."

"There is no way, our Han army can't be wasted in this place.

There are still many big battles to be fought in the future, and we will lose our old base at the beginning, and it will become more and more difficult for us in the future. "

"Yeah, look, Gongsun Ao has changed his formation!"

Yu Shan hadn't been captured alive for a long time, and the ruthlessness in Gongsun Ao's bones also came out.

He immediately ordered the surrounding soldiers to take out iron ropes, and nearly 20 steel ropes were stretched straight in the barrel array.

These soldiers with steel cables were all running in the direction of Yu Shan.

Even if there are people among them, they will not be merciful at all.

Gongsun Ao's intention was simply to confine Yu Dan to a place so that he could not move.

Catching people is much harder than killing people.

If you want to kill someone, just shoot an arrow 360 degrees without blind spots.

The Huns did not have the habit of carrying shields, so they could not withstand such an attack.

But capturing alive is a lot of timidity.

Gongsun Ao not only used steel cables, but even took out a giant shield as tall as a man.

At the front is a huge shield, and behind it are chains.

There are formations like this all around.

There are fewer and fewer people inside the giant shield, not only the Huns, but also the slave army of the big man.

Gongsun Ao's method is still very effective.

Yu Shan had no way to escape.

Soon the giant shield formed a two-meter-square place.

No matter how hard Yu Dan struggled inside, he couldn't move the shields.

Because the outside of the shield has been surrounded by steel cables.

This is the way to deal with beasts, but now it is applied to singles.

"Brothers, the prince of the Huns was captured alive by us, hahahaha!"

Gongsun Ao is now in high spirits.

The trapped Yu Dan was directly dragged to the general's platform by the Han army.
