At this time, it was the fourth watch.
The fourth watch is the time when people sleep the deepest, and it is also the time when the vigilance is the weakest, even the soldiers who are responsible for patrolling and guarding at night are also drowsy, of course, the best time for night attacks.
Under the cover of night, a huge wave of snow as shining as snow rolled in, and under the light of the stars, only a snow-white light could be seen between the entire southeast heaven and earth, and it was only three or four hundred steps away from the camp of the people of the Western Regions at this time.
It was the three-way iron cavalry of the Gongsun Army that came: the White Horse Yicong, the Moyun Cavalry, and the Flying Wolf Cavalry, with a total of 30,000 troops.
The shiny aluminum armor is indeed not suitable for night attacks, but the people of the Western Regions did not expect that they had 180,000 cavalry stationed under the city, and there would be people who would dare to come to the night attack.
Zhao Yun is not only the commander of the White Horse Yicong, but also the commander of the three armies, raised his head, looked at the Western Regions Army camp in front of him, which surrounded the three layers of the outer three layers of Lufu City, and turned around and shouted: "Kill" "Kill" With the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the 30,000 iron cavalry accelerated at the same time, rushing towards the Western Regions army camp like an iron stream.
At the gate, those guards who were dozing off suddenly saw the dust in front of them, the sound of hooves was like thunder, and a piece of horse army with white flowers rushed in like a demon god, and all the sergeants were stunned for a while, and they all opened their mouths wide, looking at this group of divine soldiers who fell from the sky with incredible expressions, and they forgot to shout.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, trumpet, trumpet," I don't know who was the first to exclaim.
It's a pity that it was too late, Zhao Yun led the white horse Yi to roll in, instantly drowning the guard team of more than a dozen people, the trumpeter who was about to blow the trumpet just put the long horn to his mouth, and was picked up into the air by Zhao Yun, who was in the lead, and the horn fell to the ground, and was trampled by the white horse Yi who followed closely.
The gate, which was several meters wide, was also viciously waved by Wen Chou with a steel gun, and a shot swept to the pillar and fell to the ground.
Titicaca After all, the gate was too small, and before the Gongsun army rode a horse directly to drive the enemy's antlers, the short ones were directly trampled by the horses, and the taller ones were slashed down by a long knife with a snowy handle.
The iron cavalry of the Gongsun army rushed into the camp of the Western Regions Army unimpeded.
Kill In the camp of the Western Regions Army, the flames soared into the sky, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.
In front, Bai Ma Yi went on a rampage, slashing and killing everywhere, and tens of thousands of iron horsemen in the back were under the leadership of Yan Liang and Tai Shici and others, slashing and killing while setting fires.
Woooooooo Knock knock The sound of trumpets was incessant, and the drums of war rose to the sky.
In the camp of the Western Regions Army, there was chaos, and the exclamations and screams were endless.
The Western Regions Army in their sleep never expected that the Gongsun Army's iron cavalry would rush into their camp from behind without warning.
Some soldiers were still asleep, or still dressing, they were slashed and killed by the swarming Gongsun army, even if those soldiers who had already lifted their weapons and arranged their clothes and armor, panicked out of the tent, but could not organize effective resistance, and were rushed by the roaring white horse Yicong, and the flesh and blood flew sideways.
However, the 180,000 army's Western Regions military camp was as vast as a smoke wave, how could it be so easy to collapse it all at once, and soon the sky above the Western Regions military camp was loud with horns and war drums.
At this time, the Western Regions coalition army each had its own main general, and the 180,000 coalition troops were quickly assembled under the convening of the main generals of various countries, especially in the southwest and north directions, tens of thousands of cavalry had been organized, and the soldiers and horses in the southwest direction were the densest, which was where the army of Wusun was assembled.
The cavalry of the Western Regions is already equipped with double stirrups, which is not as good as the foot soldiers and those cavalry without horses a few years ago, although the combat effectiveness is not as good as the cavalry of the Gongsun Army, but the enemy army is six times the enemy after all, once it is wrapped in dumplings, even if it is barely raided, it will suffer heavy losses, let alone resist hard.
Zhao Yun frowned, thought for a moment, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Pass the order, kill to the southwest, and retreat after attacking this wave."
With the sound of the order, in the firelight, more than 30,000 iron horsemen followed closely behind Zhao Yun, rolling towards the southwest direction of the Wusun army's soldiers and horses assembly place.
"Kill the Dogs" "Kill the Dogs" Thousands of Han soldiers, roaring and shouting, faced with the collapsed Western Regions rout, raised their butcher knives high, ran all the way, and soon killed to the southwest.
Tai Shici led more than 10,000 Moyun cavalry and rushed to the left flank of the enemy.
Yan Liangqin led more than 10,000 flying wolf riders and swept towards the right flank.
Zhao Yun led 5,000 white horse followers to attack the enemy from the front, and rushed forward with an unstoppable momentum.
The generals were brave, the soldiers used their lives, and in the raging Han army, the sound of shouting and killing rose to the sky, changing the color of the heavens and the earth.
In the earth-shaking shouting and killing sound, the long-standing battle intent finally broke out completely at this moment.
On the left flank, Tai Shici waved his spear and shouted angrily, and when he rode into the enemy formation, the spear edge passed, and countless soldiers from the Western Regions were ruthlessly picked up half of the army.
The long-awaited Han Iron Cavalry Athlete, like a huge sharp arrow, followed Tai Shici and tore towards the Western Regions Army that was turning on his back.
On the right wing, Yan Liang's spear shadow flew like lightning, and the spear blade passed through, and endless blood was carried into the sky by him.
In the rain of blood, 10,000 right-wing iron horsemen, like wolves entering the flock, frantically slaughtered those defeated soldiers in the Western Regions who fled.
In the place of the Chinese army, Zhao Yun held a bright silver spear of gentian, and his crotch shone on the night jade lion, like snow-white lightning.
Flying out.
The lightning was left and right, and thousands of white horses and iron horsemen were roaring and following.
More than 5,000 white horse righteous followers, like a giant spear that shakes the sky, carries the power of destroying the world and destroying the earth.
Rumbling forward.
Crashing, crushing, tearing The rolling iron rider will block the eyes.
All living creatures were to be shattered.
The 40,000 or 50,000 Wusun troops that had just been assembled suffered heavy casualties in an instant, and they did not even have time to escape, and fell into the tragic predicament of being slaughtered.
In the chaotic army, Tie Mi, the general of the Western domain and the left general of the Wusun Kingdom, watched his Wusun generals and soldiers, like fragile weeds, be harvested by the Han army hundreds of lives.
For the first time in his life, Tie Mi's heart was truly shocked, far more than the last time he was attacked by Ma Dai.
However, with half a pillar of incense, Zhao Yun and others led more than 30,000 Gongsun Army iron cavalry, and they had already broken the formation that the Wusun Army had just assembled and rushed out.
When he turned around, more than 30,000 iron horsemen were already four or five miles away, and the shining aluminum armor stood like a hubo under the night.

At this time, Ma Chao led more than 18,000 Xiliang iron horsemen who had been assembled, and he had just rushed to the southwest.
Seeing that the enemy army had rushed out of the camp, although Ma Chao was angry in his heart, he was also calm, and immediately ordered the army to blow the horn and assemble outside the gate.
Soon, the soldiers and horses of the Western Regions gathered more than 100,000 soldiers and horses outside the Yuanmen, and the remaining tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were arranged to extinguish the embers and organize the camp.
About 120,000 iron horsemen, lined up for miles, one by one torches gathered together like a sea of fire.
On the other side, the silver-white lake was still standing, staring at them coldly, like a white snow leopard, ready to pounce at any moment.
In this half-hour raid, at least more than 10,000 soldiers and horses from the Western Regions were killed, and a lot of military rations and baggage were also burned, and after the opponent's sneak attack was successful, they still stopped in place and waited for them to assemble.
Not only were Zhu Ma Chao furious, but even the soldiers and horses of other Western Regions countries were also really angry.
It was just a sneak attack by the enemy, and it was simply a naked provocation to confront them with no more than a quarter of their troops Ma Chao smiled coldly and shouted: "Pass the order, plug the horse's ears with cotton, and let Lao Tzu catch up, and you can't turn back without killing all the thieves."
More than 30,000 cavalry of the Gongsun Army came on light horses, indicating that there was a supply of grain and grass at most more than 100 miles to the south, otherwise it would be impossible for these cavalry to cross the no-man's land and come to attack the enemy army six times as numbered.
And Ma Chao was apprehensive about the thunder in the past, knowing that this huge explosion was fatal to the war horse, and it was easy to cause chaos, so he had already asked the cavalry to prepare cotton.
The next moment, the horn of the attack rose to the sky again, and the 120,000 iron cavalry of the Western Regions accelerated in unison, following behind Ma Chao, like a river bursting its embankment, and rushed towards the cavalry of the Gongsun Army.
The cavalry of the Gongsun army on the opposite side was arrayed like a mountain, and in the face of the surging enemy army, they were not moved at all, but just stood quietly.
The cavalry of the Western Regions rushed closer and closer, and gradually reached within five hundred steps, Ma Chao and the cavalry of the Gongsun Army had been fighting for nearly two years, how could he not know the tactics of the cavalry of the Gongsun Army, and shouted loudly again: "Raise the shield" In a field battle with the Gongsun army, it is a matter of common sense that you must first guard against its crossbow arrows.
It's just that even if you remind it in advance, it's not very useful, except for the big iron shield in the hands of the Xiliang cavalry, the wooden shield in the hands of the people in the Western Regions is just an ornament, but Ma Chao can't care about it so much.
Sure enough, just when the cavalry of the Western Regions rushed to within two hundred and fifty steps between the two armies, the opposite side immediately broke through the air, and countless crossbow arrows were like meteor showers, cutting one arc after another in the air, pouring towards the cavalry army of the Western Regions.
In an instant, there were screams, broken flesh and bones, and neighing horses, and countless Western Regions cavalry fell from their horses, and then they were trampled into pulp by the rear army.
A round of divine arm crossbows was fired, shooting out more than 30,000 crossbow arrows, causing the cavalry of the Western Regions to fall another six or seven thousand.
After shooting the crossbow arrows, the cavalry of the Gongsun Army put away the crossbow arrows in a hurry, turned the horse's head in a neat and orderly manner, and then fled away without expectations.
"Chasing" Ma Chao's eyes were round and he roared.
Thundered Under the moonlight, the whole grassland was full of horses' heads and torches, and the silver light in front of it was like clouds and snow, and there was no sound in the whole sky except the sound of horses' hooves.
The two armies chased and fled, and soon reached twenty or thirty miles away, at this time the sky was close to the fifth watch, although the sky was already bright, but it was still hazy, and the visibility was no more than a mile, and the cavalry of the Western Regions could just see the shining silver light in front.
A mound appeared in front of it, stretching for more than ten miles, and the cavalry of the Gongsun Army soon crossed the mound and disappeared behind the mound.
Seeing the sudden disappearance of the enemy army, Ma Chao had a hint of ominous premonition in his heart, but under the whip of the horse, he could no longer afford to think about it.
After all, if the troops are withdrawn and returned, the morale of the whole army will be greatly reduced, and it will be even more difficult to break through Lufu City, and according to Gongsun Bai's usual tricks, if he turns back to attack Lufu City, then the cavalry of Gongsun Army will inevitably come to the tail, and there is no way to attack the city with peace of mind.
At this moment, there is only one way to desperately pursue, and there is no other choice Ma Chao to urge the horses under his crotch at the moment, urging the generals to whip up their horses, rush up to the mound, and catch up with the cavalry of the Gongsun Army.
Woooooooo Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to the mound, only less than three hundred paces, a vigorous and powerful trumpet suddenly sounded above the mound.
