The dark sky enveloped the grasslands beyond the Great Wall.
On the vast grassland, two scouts were nearly ten miles away from the main army.
After parking the motorcycle on the grass and observing the surroundings through binoculars, one of the scouts asked the other, "What do you see?"
Another scout lowered his binoculars, about to shake his head, but couldn't resist taking another look. He was immediately shocked, pointing into the distance: "Look! The Huns!!"
...
The massive motorcycle army marched across the grassland, densely packed like ants.
In the center of the army, a black square box was clearly visible.
This black box is about the size of a small house, but strangely, it can crawl very quickly...
Even more bizarrely, it is faster than a thoroughbred horse!
General An Dingguo, riding his motorcycle with his white beard fluttering in the wind, approached the rapidly moving black box and shouted, "Grand Preceptor! The scouts have spotted the Xiongnu!"
Because of the strong wind, Qin Chuan, who was sitting in the driver's seat of the off-road armored vehicle, couldn't hear what he was saying at all, so he had to turn off the engine.
After rolling down the car window, Qin Chuan looked at An Dingguo and asked, "General An, didn't you just say that you've discovered the Xiongnu?"
An Dingguo stopped his motorcycle, smoothed his gray beard, and said, "That's right, Grand Preceptor, shall we fight?"
How many of them are there?
"According to the scouts, the Xiongnu only number four or five hundred, but they are holding thousands of our people captive, along with thousands of cattle, sheep, donkeys, and other livestock!"
"Attack! Charge forward with the whole army!"
Qin Chuan was eager to fight. After searching for a long time, he finally found the Xiongnu. Why not fight? There was no reason not to fight!
An Dingguo frowned slightly. "But what if the Xiongnu slaughter our people?"
"this……"
Qin Chuan, who was in the car, also hesitated; this was indeed a difficult problem.
If the army were to advance, the Xiongnu would see no way out and, before they died, would surely massacre countless civilians.
An Dingguo thought for a moment, then clasped his hands and said in a deep voice, "This humble general believes that we should not send the entire army to attack. Instead, we should use three elite squads of several hundred men each to surround them from three sides, giving them a way to escape. After we have rescued the people, it will not be too late to pursue them on horseback..."
After listening to An Dingguo's words, Qin Chuan nodded: "You call this 'a siege must have a gap'? You've thought it through very well. Let's do as you say!"
"yes."
An Dingguo immediately dispatched three elite squads, each with over three hundred men, to advance from three directions on "iron horses".
"Ah Niu, hold on tight, let's go take a look!"
Qin Chuan started the off-road armored vehicle and increased its speed.
After riding his motorcycle out of the pass, he discovered that the vast grassland was all flat, making it safer to drive an off-road vehicle, so he simply switched to an off-road armored vehicle.
The soldiers were slightly surprised, but they accepted what they were seeing.
After all, the Imperial Advisor could even obtain "Iron Horses," "Divine Bows," and "Thousand-Mile Eyes," so they weren't as shocked by any other amazing equipment he might bring out.
"Grand Preceptor, I've heard that the Xiongnu are bloodthirsty and extremely cruel. Wouldn't it be too dangerous to go there like this?" Li Aniu asked cautiously from the back seat.
"Danger?"
Qin Chuan sneered, "The Huns are the ones who are dangerous. My off-road armored vehicle can withstand arrows, swords, and axes without a scratch. I can run them over and kill them!"
Li Aniu looked surprised, but he didn't doubt Qin Chuan's words at all.
...
On the vast grassland, a light cavalry force of about four or five hundred Xiongnu men, escorting more than a thousand civilians and thousands of cattle, sheep, donkeys and other livestock, moved slowly.
"Damn barbarians!"
With a crack, a Xiongnu cavalryman lashed his whip across a civilian, striking him until he collapsed to the ground, groaning in pain.
The Xiongnu cavalryman said in Chinese, "If we don't reach our destination before dark, we'll wipe you all out."
"Spare me! Spare me..."
The common people knelt down and begged for mercy.
Clap clap clap clap!
The whips whistled through the air as they lashed the backs of the people of Daqian, causing them pain, but their steps quickened even further.
"Damn barbarians..."
The Xiongnu cavalrymen kept muttering curses, completely unaware that they had already fallen into Gan Jun's encirclement...
By the time they discovered the arrival of the Gan Jun, three elite Gan Jun squads had already formed a three-sided encirclement from a distance of one mile.
"Southern Barbarian army spotted!"
Ayemumu, the commander of a thousand Xiongnu cavalry, heard a report from his subordinate.
Ayemu looked around and saw several hundred soldiers in each of three directions, riding strange contraptions, closing in on them...
"What is that?"
Ayemumu answered with a motorcycle, but none of his subordinates could answer the question correctly.
"Foolish southern barbarians! Do you think you can defeat our Xiongnu cavalry with some fancy tricks? Form ranks! Leave 30 men to guard them, the rest of you cavalry, charge with me!"
Ayemu gave the order, leaving only 30 cavalrymen to guard the large number of civilians and livestock that had been plundered.
The remaining cavalrymen all rode out and formed a charging formation on the grassland, ready to meet Gan Jun.
The three squads of officers slowed down their motorcycles and stopped 500 paces away.
Gan Jun took out his composite bow, drew it, and aimed an arrow at the head of a Xiongnu cavalryman through the optical sight.
At this moment, Qin Chuan also drove his off-road armored vehicle to the rear of one of the small teams to observe the battlefield situation.
