Chapter 290: Shock
As soon as the two cavalry began to fight, the Hun centurion felt that things were a little different from what he thought. The first Qin cavalryman he fought against actually didn't die under his own sword, and when he rushed past him, he also slashed one of his subordinates behind him. This made the Hun centurion, who had always been very confident in his equestrianism, a little unbelievable, although he also slashed on the chest of the second Qin cavalry, but the cavalry of the Qin State had armor and body protection, although the knife was hit, but the substantial damage did not cause much.
The cavalry charged, and the two cavalry rushed past each other in each other's camp, and when the two cavalry had pulled away for a distance, and were ready to charge each other again, the centurion could not believe his eyes.
The cavalry of the Qin army had only been cut off in the first round of the charge just now, and less than ten of them were not dead. Looking at the battle damage on his side, it is already close to thirty percent, that is to say, in the round of killing just now, his subordinates have been killed by the Qin army at least thirty people.
At least this centurion has never fought such a battle before, and the people living on the grassland have never been willing to admit defeat when fighting immediately, but the opponent has a hard armor and body, and his kung fu is not much lower than his own, this is not bullying.
The hornet nodded to the few men who were standing in the confrontation just now, and the five Qin soldiers who were still alive but wounded silently gathered the bodies of their companions and put them on their respective mounts, and then they led their mounts away from the battlefield together, and slowly walked towards Meng Tian and the others who were waiting on the side.
"Is this the strength of the cavalry of the Qin State? This is simply a massacre!" Princess Yinting couldn't help but exclaim after seeing the round of charges just now.
Originally, she thought that the Qin army of more than 50 people was facing a complete Hun hundred-man team, and with such a disparity in strength, even if the Qin army was victorious, I was afraid that these more than 50 people would be defeated. But after seeing the results of the first round of competition between the two sides, she felt that her idea was very wrong, and when she encountered such cavalry, she was afraid that it would only take one round of charge, and this Amerik hundred-man team would be completely wiped out.
Meng Tian watched the confrontation between the two cavalry on the battlefield, he was not worried about the hornets at all, in his opinion, killing five soldiers in the first battle was something that should not happen.
However, Meng Tian did not think that the cavalry they encountered today was also one of the most elite 10,000 teams under Zama Xida, and their combat power was not to be underestimated, the hornet led the cavalry of the Mengjia army to fight with them, and fought them thirty at the cost of five deaths, which was much higher than that of Zhao Guo, who had previously practiced Hufu cavalry shooting.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, what do you think of my Great Qin's cavalry compared to your grassland cavalry?" Meng Tian asked.
Princess Yinting didn't speak, it was Huerdun who spoke. "General Meng, I have long heard that the cavalry of the Mengjia army was invincible when your Qin State unified the Central Plains, originally I just thought that you Central Plains people were not good at fighting immediately. Seeing such a battle situation here today, I believe that the Mengjia army is not in vain. ”
"What's this, I think that our general killed a thousand of you alone, and our general didn't pay attention to this cavalry at all. Xue Bin rode on his horse and said disdainfully, "If I lead the team, I won't need to charge twice at all, and all these people will die." ”
"Xue Bin, Hugh is talking nonsense. Meng Tian scolded, in front of the future Xiongnu Khan, no matter what, he has to save some face for others.
"Look, the second charge is about to begin. ”
While the few of them were talking, the two teams on the battlefield had adjusted their formations and were ready to charge each other again.
"Kill!" As if they had agreed, the two sides tacitly began to charge each other at the same time. Hot e-books
Although the equipment was inferior to the other party, there were no fleeing warriors on the grassland, so this Hun cavalry still chose to confront this Qin cavalry head-on.
The cavalry rushes into battle, there are no bells and whistles to attack, there is just a fight for your life with a sword, on the battlefield, any superfluous actions will only waste your strength in vain, and give the enemy a chance to kill yourself. This is especially true in cavalry combat, where a life is often alive one moment and a corpse under a horse's hooves the next. So the cavalry charge was the bloodiest, but it was also the most spectacular battle.
Just like the two waves on the river slapping together, so did the two cavalry, the two sides came and went, and the sound of the waves was replaced by knives and knives, and the sound of weapons slashing into people's bodies, and the roar of war horses. The strong sensory and visual impact made Xue Bin and Zhang Kui, who were watching from the side, excited, and they couldn't help but want to rush up and fight with the hornets and others.
The battle soon ended, and the cavalry of the Mengjia army annihilated the hundred-strong Hun cavalry at the cost of fifteen killed and ten wounded.
"General, the last general has already wiped out all the Huns. The hornet rode a horse and brought dozens of surviving men down to Meng Tian's horse, then dismounted and knelt on the ground and said, after finishing speaking, he did not forget to throw a provocative look to Princess Yinting and the four of them.
Of course, the four princesses of Yinting didn't dare to say anything, in the face of such an army, I am afraid that even the most powerful warriors on the grassland are not opponents.
Meng Tian nodded, he didn't care about the hornet's provocative action, just said, "Okay, I'll take a big note for you when I go back." Collect the bodies of the soldiers who died in battle and bring them back. As for these dead Huns, you know what to do. ”
"The last will obey. ”
The Qin army's method of dealing with the Huns was very simple, that is, to pile up the Jingguan. The heads of the killed Huns were cut off, the corpses were burned, and the heads were piled up into a hill on the border between Qin and the grassland, so as to deter the Huns who came to invade the border.
On the way to Rock City, Princess Yinting and Huerdun didn't say a word, because they felt dozens of gazes cast at them behind them, and that kind of gaze contained murderous intent, making them feel as if someone was stabbing them with a needle on their backs.
Originally, Meng Tian was still thinking about how to show this Xiongnu princess the strength of the Great Qin army, but he didn't expect that there would be such a surprise Hun soldier who came to send him to death just out of the canyon. Meng Tian was very satisfied with the effect of this battle, he could see the ugly expressions on the faces of Princess Yinting and Huerdun, so that even if this Xiongnu princess sat on the throne of her father Khan in the future, I am afraid that she would not want to use force against the Qin State.
When they arrived at Iwacheng, some of the soldiers who were guarding the city gate saw the general returning, and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to open the city gate. A group of Qin soldiers rushed out of the city gate, lined up in two teams at the city gate, waiting for Meng Tian to come.
"Welcome to the general!" When Meng Tian and Princess Yinting approached, the two teams of soldiers lined up at the city gate knelt down on one knee and said loudly.
Meng Tian was a little surprised, but he quickly figured out that this must be a ghost idea that Brother Meng Li came up with to give these Huns a greeting gift. It's just that after the battle on the grassland, this kind of welcome ceremony feels a bit like a snake.
Despite this, Princess Yinting, who was following behind Meng Tian, was still taken aback. She didn't expect that the Qin people also had this custom of welcoming the soldiers who returned from victory, and this voice was too loud, the momentum of the Qin army was really too strong. At this time, Princess Yetai already understood a little why her father Khan did not agree to go south to attack the Central Plains, and with such an army guarding the border of the steppe, how could she fight?
