Chapter 118 One arrow shoots the king (1)
To be honest, Situ Yuanxiao really looked untrustworthy. Zhao Zimu couldn’t help from quietly suggesting letting her lead a hidden troop to ambush at the head of the mountain. Afterwards, she could pretend to fail and flee to weaken the Xiongnu’s guard. However, how would Situ Yuanxiao listen to her? The reason was simple: because she was Lin Qing’s subordinate.
Zhao Zimu had no better methods to use against this willful prince for the time being. When someone became wary of another, their wariness wouldn’t be so easily to eliminate. Not to mention, that from their identities, they were enemies.
Withdrawing her kindness, Zhao Zimu waited silently for the arrival of the Xiongnu. She also wanted to see how far Situ Yuanxiao could take them.
Rolling stones and logs had been prepared on both sides of the valley. There were more than two thousand archers in ambush on both sides. As long as the Xueyan tribe pass the entrance of the mountain, there would absolutely be only death.
But would things really be like what Situ Yuanxiao expected?
When three thousand people arrived at the valley, Xueyan tribe suddenly stopped. After a person who looked like the leader of the Xueyan tribe spoke to his subordinates, he ordered a dozen people to explore the valley alone. Of course, this was reported by the spy sent by Situ Yuanxiao.
Situ Yuanxiao’s face became ugly instantly after hearing the report. With so many people deployed on both sides of the valley, it was too late to change the order. If discovered by the Xiongnu, everything he did would be wasted.
Without thinking about it, Zhao Zimu gave him a hard kick and said with sharp eyes, “Are you still not ordering everyone to retreat? If you continue like this, do you want people to make dumplings of us?!”
Zhao Zimu spoke the truth. It was easy to hide an army when the enemy was unprepared, but if the enemy was already on guard, how difficult would it be to find a trace of the army?
Moreover, even though this valley was dense, the broken branches, leaves that were cut along the way and the marks that many people have stepped on here couldn’t be eliminated at all. Once the enemy was determined to investigate the situation on both sides of the valley, it would be easy to find them.
Furthermore, the biggest advantage of the Xiongnu cavalry was their speed. If they discovered them, it was hard to guarantee that they wouldn’t seize the opportunity and run rapidly to the other side of the valley to block their way. With the military strength of the Xiongnu, they could catch a turtle in a jar. Everything will be too late then.
Situ Yuanxiao looked stunned at her and then a flame spurted out of his eyes. No one had dared to treat him this way before! To be precise, it should be kick!
He had been kicked!
“Zhao Zhong!” Although Situ Yuanxiao was angry, he still suppressed the anger in his heart. Although, he couldn’t think so clearly now because of the anger, but he still has the temperament a commander. He didn’t rush put to fight Zhao Zimu regardless of the situation. If that being the case, they don’t have to wait to fight the Xiongnu. There would be chaos already with an internal fight.
Situ Yuanxiao still wanted to wait a bit more because as long as they were lucky to not be found by the Xiongnu, they could kill them by surprise according to their original plan. Hence, Situ Yuanxiao was unwilling to change his plan.
However, he didn’t see the expression of his subordinates. Nervousness and fear were all written on their faces. Could such military spirit really escape the detection of the Xiongnu?
There was no fluke in war. A moment of carelessness may cause the entire army to be wiped out. In a moment of desperation, Zhao Zimu had no choice but to secretly take her hundred men and hide them in the opening of the valley, so, that when they were attacked by the Xiongnu, they would have away out.
It happened as Zhao Zimu thought. The Xiongnu discovered these people before the battle was started. Several Xiongnu who were ambushed, quickly rode out to give the other Xiongnu a signal.
The war was on verge of breaking out. The Xiongnu really took advantage of the cavalry’s convenience and speed just as Zhao Zimu thought and went around to the exit on the other side and made dumplings of the people laying in the valley. The Xiongnu even have the tendency to kill them all.
At this time, Situ Yuanxiao also realized how bad things had gone. He immediately let all the people retreat out of the valley, but would it be that easy? There were thousands of cavalries waiting in the front and back of the valley. One round of arrows and one charging in of the group could kill all these people of Situ Yuanxiao’s army.
Situ Yuanxiao finally realized the seriousness of the matter at this time and led the army, wanting to leave out of the valley desperately. The war had begun and people had begun to die.
The lush-green valley gradually became stained with the redness of blood. The bloody smell caused by killing slowly diffused throughout the valley. The sound of people shouting and the sound of the horses rang throughout the valley.
Although, Situ Yuanxiao had also been on the battlefield before, but he had always been in the middle position. It wouldn’t be his turn to fight personally until the last moment. Even if a thousand people were killed in front of him and the blood flowed, he didn’t have a trace of fear.
However now, when the Xiongnu’s machete cut at him time to time again and when his personal guards fell on by one, he really realized that the war turned out to be such a cruel thing. He had been careless.
When more than half of Situ Yuanxiao’s men had been killed or injured, they hadn’t rushed out of the valley yet. The sad thing was the Xueyan Xiongnu tribe have hardly suffered any damage and the Xiongnu ambushing on the other side was already moving forward; an assault from the front and the back and it looked like it wanted to cut Situ Yuanxiao into a meat pie.
