"Here we are...... Here it ......."

A group of scouts sped towards the group, shouting loudly.

The corners of Han Xin's mouth rose slightly, can't you run?

Keep running!

"How many?" Han Xin asked calmly.

"I don't know, it's dense, at least more than 50,000! It should be coming soon! The scout hurriedly reported.

He also fought hard along the way, constantly changing his war horse on the way, and even dropped a war horse, which threw the other party away some distance.

But the distance was close, he was running, and the other side was also running.

And the reason why he was able to throw off a certain distance was completely due to the fact that he occupied a small number of people.

'Boom ......'

As soon as the scout's words fell, Han Xin faintly heard the sound of a large group of cavalry running at high speed.

"Prepare for battle!" Suddenly, Han Xin roared.

The soldiers directly controlled the war horses to turn around, took off the cavalry guns on the weapon racks, and sorted out the armor on their bodies.

"Heavy cavalry to the rear!" Han Xin then ordered.

The army began to adjust its bearings.

Although the five thousand men were equipped with five hundred heavy cavalry, the five hundred heavy cavalry would only be given to them if they were acting alone.

In a battle like this, where 30,000 people act together, these 3,000 heavy cavalry are used together.

The larger the scale and the greater the number of people, the stronger the effect of the battle will naturally be.

Let the heavy cavalry take the lead, although it is very good.

But Han Xin felt that it was a bit overkill.

The role of heavy cavalry is to impact and break through defenses.

Instead of going face to face with the opposing cavalry.

The speed of the war horse, regardless of whether it is a heavy cavalry or a light cavalry, if the two collide, no matter who ends up, it will not be very good.

And in order to cope with today, Han Xin has also made all preparations.

If you eat something in your mouth, how can you spit it out so easily?

Therefore, as early as three days ago, Han Xin asked two thousand cavalry to go back with those women.

Han Xin's order to them was to march at least 100 miles every day.

Han Xin personally led 28,000 people to sit in the back, slowly moving southward at a speed of thirty miles a day.

The first is to attract attention, and the second is to buy time for the captives in front to return to Dahan.

Therefore, if the two thousand horsemen had done what they had asked, they would now be two hundred and ten miles south of themselves.

Even if it was the Hun cavalry, the distance of two hundred and ten miles would take more than a day to catch up.

If you take into account that both sides are moving, it will basically catch up in the afternoon of the third day.

But this premise is that the main force led by Han Xin did not engage them, and the Huns could go directly south and catch up as fast as possible.

However, is this possible?

Of course it is impossible.

What is the combat effectiveness of the Han army, Han Xinzhong knows better than anyone that in the face of the 28,000 Han cavalry armed to the teeth, the Huns may not be able to completely defeat them even if they come to 100,000.

And the 2,000 people who were in charge of guarding the captives were actually not good.

Among them were 500 sabre soldiers, considering that their number was too small to be of little use on the main battlefield, so Han Xin asked them to join the team to escort the prisoners.

With 500 swordsmen and 1,500 cavalry, even if this lineup can't bring back the captives smoothly in the end, at least 10,000 Hun cavalry will be able to break their heads.

Besides, it can't be that bad.

It is only six or seven hundred miles away from the Han Realm, and the distance on the side of the captive team is even closer, only about four hundred miles.

Basically, if they walk for another two or three days, they will be able to meet the main force of the Han army led by Guan Ying.

As long as you get in touch with the main force, do you need to worry about anything else?

Guan Ying casually sent some reinforcements over, and the Huns had to scratch their scalps.

Line up and grab a good position.

The grassland is like the waves on the sea, with high and low ups and downs.

The 27,000 Han army seized a high ground, and then stood on it quietly waiting for the arrival of the Huns.

Ahead, a puff of black smoke rises.

A short time later, a second smoke rose.

The third ......

The scouts returning from the front kept circling around the sides of the army, then changed horses, rode one with two, and continued to depart far on either side.

Cavalry field battle to seize the high ground?

Of course, those who don't understand will think that this is a fool's tactics.

But anyone who knows knows that this is the wisest way to play.

While cavalry needs space, other factors are also important.

For example, Han Xin only walked thirty miles a day, giving the Hun cavalry a chance while also allowing his own horses to rest.

And the Huns now don't know how long they have been running, and whether their war horses can still support this battle still needs to be marked with a question mark.

Seizing the high ground, he has more than just vision.

Instead, when they are charged, this slope will provide them with physical acceleration, allowing them to charge at a shorter distance.

The Huns need to go uphill, although the slope is not large, but for the war horse, it is also very physically demanding.

Eventually, the shaking of the ground grew louder and louder.

Even the war horses under the crotch let out bursts of roars from time to time, and their temper became a little anxious.

Sun second-hand palm gently stroked the face of the war horse, and the war horse felt the temperature of the master's palm, and soon calmed down.

The two of them have been together for more than a year, even if the war horse is just a livestock, but in this period of more than a year, the relationship has also been cultivated.

'Buzz ......'

'Buzz ......'

'Buzz ......'

A dull horn sounded, and the tone was steady and powerful, and it was continuous.

Naturally, the cavalry unit could not use the infantry's set of battle orders, and the cavalry carrying huge war drums on their backs also affected their actions.

So they used horns instead of war drums, although the sound didn't feel very loud.

But the sound of the horn could penetrate farther, and even the air around it could be felt as if it were vibrating.

Sun Er patted the war horse, and then drew an arrow from the quiver in front of his right foot with his right hand.

"Third child, it's time for us to exert our might!"

The third is the name that Sun Er gave to this war horse, anyway, there is no culture, Sun Er almost raised him as a son, but it is more important than his son, and then there is the name of the third child, in fact, it is called Sun San.

The third child understood his master's words, roared twice, and then slowly moved forward.

The whole force was moving forward, at first only slowly, then faster and faster.

With the help of the downhill, the war horse kept speeding up.

Sun Er is not in the front row, so they have more tasks than the front, responsible for archery.

Because the front row may come into contact with the opposing cavalry at any time, and the speed of the war horses is very fast, if you shoot arrows, you will basically have to fire one or two to go to close combat.

It's inconvenient and uncertain.

Therefore, in the cavalry tactics of the Han army, the first five rows did not use archery.

From the moment of the charge, it was only necessary to hold the cavalry gun tightly.

When the cavalry guns were lost, they used ring-headed knives.

The back row touched the enemy relatively late, so he took on the task of archery.

Of course, basically the middle ones are shooting arrows, and the back row can't use them at all, because the arrows they shoot may hit their own heads.

'Whoosh ......'

Seeing that the distance was almost up, Sun Er quickly opened his bow and shot, shooting diagonally upward.

In a battle of this scale, any accurate archery is a floating cloud.

What really works is how many arrows you can fire in the shortest amount of time.

The more arrows you fire, the harder you can suppress them.

With the assistance of a full set of horse harnesses, the Han cavalry was able to be not much weaker than the Huns in equestrianism.

Of course, this refers to those flowers.

In such large-scale battles, flower jobs are often the least reliable.

What is really reliable is who can do more steadily on the war horse, and who can use more strength on the war horse.

Obviously, in this regard, the Han army has the upper hand.

With the combination of Takahashi's saddle and stirrups, he can make a person who has never ridden a horse sit firmly on it for the first time and adapt to running at high speed.

So, imagine for yourself how scary it is.

After three rounds of shooting, the front one is almost close to each other.

Sun Er directly put away his bow and arrows, and took down the cavalry spear from the weapon rack.

The cavalry in the rear continued to fire, and the Han army had done a rigorous study of the shooting during the ride.

So you can guarantee when you can stop shooting without hurting your own people.

Sun Er held the cavalry spear tightly with both hands, and stared at the front with his eyes.

The pressure on the front row was enormous, and there were enemies everywhere in front of them.

Those in the back row need to concentrate because there will be missed enemies in front of them.

After all, the front row can't finish all the enemies, and they are not gods, let alone three heads and six arms.

The head of a cavalry gun was particularly long, similar to a half-cut sword attached to it.

It can be stabbed and chopped, although it is not as versatile, but it is almost the same.

Sun Er controlled the war horse, and kept a distance from the Huns on the opposite side as much as possible.

Not only Sun Er, but the entire Han army did this.

The cavalry gun is three meters long, removing the place where the soldier needs to hold it, and the usable length of the front section is about two meters, and the weapon has a length advantage and does not know how to use it, so there is no need to fight this battle.

And Sun Er only needs to follow the person in front of him all the time, and stagger the distance of the horse's body.

This is done to prevent a rear-end collision after the person in front of you has fallen from the horse.

Soon, Sun Er saw the opportunity.

He saw a Hun cavalryman with a cut on the arm, and the wound was not deep.

There are many enemy troops like this in front of them, of course, not because the people in front are not strong, but because of the needs of the battle.

Confirming the target, Sun Er followed the direction of the team, slightly fine-tuning the distance.

Holding the cavalry spear in front of him with both hands, his eyes staring at each other fiercely.

It wasn't until the distance was about to get close that he stabbed the cavalry gun out of his hand.

'Poof......'

The head of the spear pierced into the opponent's abdomen steadily, and Sun Er's wrist quickly turned, following the direction of the movement of the two war horses, and using the maneuver of the war horse to pull out the cavalry spear from the opponent's body.

At the same time, this opportunity was also used to increase the wound area of the enemy's wounds.

The two horses passed head-on, and the cavalry spears were pulled out without much effort, and blood sprayed out instantly.
