Chapter 495: Probing and Attacking the Camp
In the wasteland, Ju Yi sighed, followed Letitia to the northeast and saw that they were indeed the Huns.
Moreover, he was a Northern Hun who had not given up the glory of the Hun Empire. Others might admit their mistakes, but he would never do so.
He had never seen the real Huns, but the instinctive stress reaction of his military spirit had already made him confirm the existence of the Northern Huns.
Ju Yi is not stupid. Since the Huns are still alive, the Han Dynasty will definitely find a way to crush them in the end.
Ju Yi was hesitating. He was wondering whether he should rush forward.
Those were the Huns, the Huns who featured prominently in history books. It would be no problem for anyone to be granted a title of nobility or prime minister if he killed a bunch of Huns.
But he knew very well that since Great Britain called the Huns an empire, it meant that the Huns still had strength.
A rotten boat still has three nails. Ju Yi was very sure that the Huns were definitely not that easy to defeat.
But for Ju Yi, this battle is a very great opportunity, especially in such an icy and snowy environment.
The main force of the Huns is definitely the cavalry, and Ju Yi doesn't even need to think about this.
Any commander who has systematically studied military books and the military technology tree will be familiar with the Huns' military forces. That was a series of military forces that was finally determined after hundreds of years of fighting between the Huns and the Han Dynasty.
Any types of troops that cannot fight will be expelled from the battlefield early on, and the ones left are definitely those that are most suitable for both sides to display their strengths.
The main force of the Huns was the cavalry.
In such an icy and snowy environment, the cavalry would be greatly restricted, but those who climbed first would not.
Ju Yi felt the call of mission. They were the first to ascend the battlefield without any worries, and as heavy crossbowmen had a fatal restraint on light cavalry, it seemed like this was the moment for him to make a name for himself!
"Go, head south, find the local chief, and ask him to pass this letter back to Luoyang. Only the general and the prime minister can read it."
Ju Yi didn't hesitate for long . He called Leticia and handed her a letter.
Ju Yi was very sure that as long as he didn't have the right military soul or broke through the boundary, he would never be able to break the blockade of the military soul power.
Letitia was bewildered. She had just surrendered, and yet she was entrusted with such an important task so soon?
"Once you're done, you will be my Han subjects from now on!" Ju Yi painted a pie for Letitia.
It’s not that Ju Yi doesn’t want to find other people to go, but the halberd soldiers and the vanguards all have to go to the battlefield, so it’s really not appropriate to withdraw manpower.
If too many people are assigned to deliver letters, it will affect their frontal combat effectiveness.
There are fewer people assigned to deliver letters, and the road is not very safe.
The task of sending letters for help can only be entrusted to the newly surrendered guys like Letia.
Although the strength of Letitia and others is average, they have more than a dozen monsters with internal energy, and ordinary barbarians dare not cause trouble for them.
Asking them to deliver the letter was also a chance for them to join the Han Dynasty. Discovering the Northern Huns was also a great achievement, and it was Ju Yi's reward to these elves.
Ju Yi knew very well that he was not going to fight for his life this time, he just went there to see the situation, it would be even better if he could gain something.
Ju Yi was making a lot of calculations, and it all depended on how much credit he could get from this huge achievement.
By then, with the testimony of elves like Letitia, his contribution would be confirmed. Even if these elves had not disappeared and the letter was not delivered, it would not be impossible for him to go back and deliver the letter himself to claim credit.
However, when it comes to asking for credit, it’s better to get help from others.
Letitia and others were quickly sent on their way by Ju Yi, and then Ju Yi immediately led his troops towards the target.
Relying on his powerful vision and observation skills, Ju Yi carefully led his troops to the vicinity of a super-large tribe.
The war eagles hovering in the sky gave him a headache. With these guys around during the day, it was impossible to launch a surprise attack and catch people off guard. They were discovered before they even got close to the camp.
He had no way of getting close to the reconnaissance camp and could only rely on his clairvoyance to roughly peek at the camp's layout and quietly wait for night to fall.
By the time the moon was almost at its zenith, the army was finally in position.
"The weather is so nice tonight! God is really helping me!" Ju Yi looked at the moon in the sky, his back teeth showing with joy.
The moonlight was neither bright nor dark, but a little dim to a certain extent. However, it did not affect the vision of the vanguard, and it was simply perfect for a night attack.
As the vanguard of the first wave of death squads, the Halberd Soldiers certainly could not have problems with night blindness.
Following Ju Yi's orders, the vanguard and the halberd soldiers quietly deployed their troops in the dark. Fortunately, the soldiers did not have night blindness, otherwise such a small deployment at night would be enough to kill 99% of the commanders.
"Hu, I'm ready. Now it depends on my luck!" Ju Yi said as he looked at the Hun camp with little lights in the darkness in the distance.
…
In the tribe of King Zhuiri, inside the king’s tent.
"King, the subordinates reported that they have recently discovered many unknown small forces nearby. Should we deal with them?" Helian Tie asked the burly man sitting in the main seat, King Zhui Ri, one of the twenty-four kings of the Xiongnu.
"You should take some people there in person tomorrow, bring more people, and bring back all the usable supplies!" Sun-chasing King Helian nodded, and did not take Helian Tie's request seriously.
For them, there are few opponents worthy of attention on this continent, and other forces are just their granaries.
"Yes, sir!" Helian Tie stood up and saluted. This was a good job. If he did a good job, the tribe he belonged to would have a much better winter.
King Zhui Ri looked at the information on the table helplessly and continued to give instructions.
"Remember to bring back those corpses as well, and hand them over directly to the demons when the time comes!"
"I will obey the king's order!" Helian Tie was a little dissatisfied, but he respected King Zhuiri very much, so in the end he could only express his acceptance of the order dryly.
King Zhuiri glanced at Helian Tie and said nothing. He could understand Helian Tie's feelings.
He didn't know what the Chanyu was thinking. Cooperating with a group of demons, these demons could no longer be considered human. Could he really help them?
However, the Chanyu was the most capable among the Huns after all, so he could only suppress his complaints and carry out the Chanyu's orders.
"Boom~"
When King Zhuiri was thinking about how to get more supplies for the winter, a sound like a tsunami came from outside the king's tent.
"What's going on?" King Zhui Ri stood up and strode out of the tent.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The camp outside was still in chaos. Although , had every man mobilised as a soldier, this was the first time they had encountered a surprise attack in decades. For a moment, the entire camp was in chaos.
Especially in the dark, the Huns fell into chaos for a while.
