Chapter Five Hundred and Ninety Seventh: Evacuation
It is not an exaggeration to describe this battlefield by region.
Zhang Yu and his party are used to seeing life and death, but they have never been involved in such a tragic battlefield.
The soaring bloody smell made their faces look bad.
"Zilong and Elai brought soldiers and horses to collect the surrounding horses." Zhang Yu ordered.
There are a large number of war horses scattered around the battlefield. These are the war horses Zhang Yu refers to, and he wants to use these war horses to supplement himself.
About 400,000 soldiers and horses died in the battle, so there would naturally be many horses around. Zhang Yu didn't plan to leave enough time for Xianbei or the Huns to clean up the battlefield. Apart from other things, the horses were collected and brought back, so it was his own military expenses.
After collecting for a while, it became dark. Zhao Yun and the others collected more than 50,000 war horses, and many war horses were scattered around.
Now that it was getting dark, Zhang Yu asked the soldiers to rest. They built the camp more than ten miles away, and no one could bear the soaring blood.
The other two horses left the field sadly at this time.
"How did this happen, how did this happen, I am ashamed of the king." Baltu became a little out of order along the way.
What the grassland values most is strength. Many of his 300,000 troops are mobilized by his own tribe, and now there are only more than 20,000 troops left.
Even if Yu Fuluo didn't chop him up, he would be torn to pieces when he returned to his tribe.
What kind of Youxian King has long since ceased to exist.
He couldn't figure it out now, why this happened, changing from a hunter to a prey was really unacceptable.
But so what if you don't accept it, the current situation is like this.
It was difficult for Baltu to accept, and the most important thing was that his mission was not completed.
Not only did Zhang Yu not be killed, but Xianbei was only severely injured, and Xianbei was still strong.
How could he accept such a situation.
With an army of 300,000, there were only more than 20,000 troops left in the end, which was almost the same as the entire army was wiped out.
On the other side, Kirby could be in much better shape.
Needless to say, they also suffered heavy losses and injuries, but after all, they repelled the enemy and severely injured the enemy.
Although Kirby still hasn't understood why Zhang Yu betrayed him at a critical moment.
Kirby can be regarded as a hero, a hero of Xianbei.
He led the army to repel the enemy, and then defended the homeland.
The next day, before dawn, Zhang Yu and the others woke up.
Zhao Yun and the others continued to look for war horses, and there were a lot of war horses around.
"My lord, I'm afraid it will take two days to get all the horses together," Huang Zhong said.
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "The speed is too slow, the Xianbei people must still be around, they are afraid that we will continue to search for their tribe, so they will definitely keep an eye on us, send a few people to find us, and give us 50,000 horses , let's go."
In Zhang Yu's view, the other party will definitely agree to this deal, and if he dares to disagree, he will beat them.
Xianbei no longer has much strength. Although they still have a large population and many people who can fight on horseback, it will be difficult to unite again.
This time it was Kirby who was able to organize several tribes to put together soldiers and horses. It was too late for them to get together again, and it was not so easy at the same time.
Sure enough, after Zhang Yu sent people there, he found them in more than an hour, and then passed the word back.
Two hours later, Kirby received the news that Zhang Yu wanted a war horse.
"Your Majesty, this is too deceitful. You thought we were afraid of them." A general next to Kebi Neng scolded angrily.
"No, give it to us. Now I understand that these Han people are more terrifying than the Huns. They are not in the same group, and the Han people don't want us to be wiped out by the Huns." Kirby said.
"Fifty thousand war horses. What a fortune this is," said the general.
Kirbyneng and the others hadn't reached a conclusion yet, and a scout came to them again and reported, "Your Majesty, those Han people said again that they must be given 50,000 horses today, and they will leave after receiving the horses. Give us a lot of good weapons and equipment, but we must bury the bodies of all the people and the horses, otherwise there will be a plague and we will be in danger."
Weaponry.
Hearing these four words, the eyes of many Xianbei generals and soldiers glowed. They naturally knew that the Xiongnu's weapons and equipment were very good. If they had all these, their strength would definitely increase by then.
They had no choice but to ask people to notify the tribe to prepare horses, and try to give Zhang Yu 50,000 horses to them within one day.
A day later, they had collected 50,000 horses, and Zhang Yu sent thousands of people to fetch them back.
Xianbei has been on guard, they are still afraid of Zhang Yu and the others.
But Zhang Yu didn't have time to deal with them at this time, but left with his horse.
This time Zhang Yu and the others got a total of 140,000 war horses, plus the previous war horses, enough for one of them and two horses.
With one man and two horses, Zhang Yu was willing to delay, let Huang Zhong and the others put their heavy cavalry equipment on the horse, and then ran.
After Zhang Yu and the others left, Xianbei could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
But when they arrived at the battlefield and prepared to bury the body, it was another painful torture.
The battlefield at this time still exudes a strong smell of blood, and it will stink soon, making it even more uncomfortable.
Originally, they had never thought of burying the corpse, but they heard Zhang Yu warn them that if they didn't bury the corpse, there would be a plague, and everyone on the grassland would die.
In this way, they could only endure the stench and bury the corpse.
They called tens of thousands of people from the tribe to help, but with so many corpses, people and horses, they couldn't do it in a few days.
When Zhang Yu and the others had just left the battlefield and were heading southeast, a big battle broke out in the direction of Jiangdong.
Yuan Shu and Sun Ce attacked in two directions, and hundreds of thousands of troops came to kill them.
After the army came over, Zhang Yu's army immediately withdrew from Chao County, and then headed for the Yangtze River.
Gao Shun took his troops and gave up some of the previously occupied places, including half of Jiujiang County.
That was the territory that Yuan Shu had robbed before, and now they give up all of it.
After giving up, Gao Shun withdrew his troops to the other side of the Yangtze River, the side he controlled.
This time the war started too suddenly, and they hadn't prepared much before, so they could only retreat first.
No one is happy that the ground that has just been laid down is about to be spit out again like this, but there is no way, they must retreat.
After Gao Shun and the others retreated, they stationed directly on the banks of the Yangtze River.
To kill the enemy, he had to cross the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River is not so easy to leap, let alone an army of hundreds of thousands.
Zhang Yu and his troops patrol the Yangtze River every day, and they know every section of the Yangtze River like the back of their hands. Gao Shun and the others naturally know the situation here very well. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
