After the Huns suffered more than 100 casualties, no one dared to approach or stay as a target, so they could only attack and harass from a long distance meaninglessly.

In this case, the advantage of the crossbow over the bow becomes apparent.

The lethality of the bow was weaker than that of the crossbow, and the Huns' riding bow was not as long and strong as the infantry bow of the Tuntian army, so it was difficult to kill and injure the Yuan army in a hundred steps.

However, Yuan's crossbow could be reloaded slowly, and then aimed at the cavalry whose horses had a large physical exertion and slowed down.

Moreover, because they could use the strength of their backs and feet to assist in pulling crossbows, these crossbowmen were completely superior to the Huns in protracted warfare.

Zhang observed the overall battle situation and saw at a glance that the two wings only looked amazing, but in fact it was difficult to advance an inch.

If it weren't for the Tuntian army in the middle to show some strength, it is estimated that it would be at an all-round disadvantage as soon as it came up, and it would turn fraud into real defeat.

Yan Liang's side has long seen that the positive situation is unfavorable, and of course he has a way to deal with it

Among the people who led the troops this time, he may be a little behind Guo Tu in terms of strategy and art of war, but in the polemic array charge, he is the first in the entire Yuan army.

"Roar!"

"Knock knock!"

The terrifying roar brought the sound of rapid war drums.

Looking at it, Yan Liang had already turned over and dismounted, and with five hundred heavy infantry, he formed a phalanx and rushed out!

Yan Liang rushed to the first one, his bright light armor was very dazzling, separated by countless arrows, like a god descending from the earth, no one could stop him.

The heavy infantry behind were all dressed in armor, holding swords and shields, ignoring the rain of arrows and rushing directly to the Xinxi Liang army.

Li Tong, Liu Pi, Gong Du, and Zhao Ang, seeing Yan Liang taking such a few people to attack directly, thought that he was going crazy and sent to death. They directly commanded their subordinates to rush up and try to besiege and annihilate Yan Liang.

The shield spearmen of the Tuntian army formed a formation and tried to use the spear formation to suppress the Yuan army with the advantage of longer weapons and more dense numbers. Then look for flaws, and gradually use the swiftness of the stab, killing in one fell swoop.

However, the 500 warriors in heavy armor were not afraid of the besieging Tuntian soldiers.

They don't have the usual sword and shield soldiers, and their moves are mainly defensive. Instead, he used a shield to protect his head and vital points, and directly swung his knife to kill without his life.

These attacking sword and shield soldiers also maintained a formation of three people, with the first person rushing to the front, and one person on the left and right sides and one person in the rear.

They specialize in sticking to extremely close distances, taking advantage of the knife's close-range combat.

The disadvantages of the one-handed spear at this time are highlighted, it is not like a two-handed thrust like an ultra-long spear, it can penetrate the enemy with a single blow, and it is not like a fighting weapon such as the ring head knife, which can have an advantage in body fighting.

Some of the soldiers immediately threw away their shields and held spears in both hands, believing that they could pierce the armor with the strength of their hands.

However, in addition to armor, these heavy infantry of the Yuan army also had shields, and a little length advantage had limited effect under the effect of the first blow of Yuan Jun's brave closeness and shield, and could only maintain an undefeated situation.

Yan Liang's side was even more unstoppable, and it was likely that there was still a layer of armor under his Mingguang armor, so no matter how the spears and bows and arrows of the Xinxi Liang Army around him attacked, they would not be able to cause serious damage.

However, Yan Liang's big knife was wielding and flying, as long as it encountered an obstacle, the spear would be broken and the shield would be broken, and he would either be killed or injured.

Li Tong, Liu Pi, Gong Du, and Zhao Ang knew that Yan Liang was brave, but as long as they took him, the battle would be won.

So the four of them went up together and besieged Yan Liang.

Li Tong has superb marksmanship, brave and good at fighting, Liu Pi and Gong are both famous righteous men for a long time, Zhao Ang was born in a famous family in Tianshui, both civil and military. Four people go up together, and normal people are absolutely in a hurry and can't resist.

But Yan Liang was not only fearless, but extremely excited. Every blow of his broadsword was powerful and heavy, except for Li Tong, the rest of the people took his move, and they had to slow down for a few breaths before they could readjust their combat movements.

Zhang was in the position of commander-in-chief, and knew that if he continued to fight, it would not be a deception, but a decisive battle.

He looked at Yan Liang's left and right flanks, and there was little pressure on the Huns, and the front was also turned around under his brave assault.

Zhang Ji ordered, "Mingjin collects the troops, and let the two cavalry that have not yet been put into battle cover the orderly return of the army to the camp." ”

"Bell, bell, bell!"

The sound of gold sounded, and another herald rushed to the front line, calling for the left and right flanks to withdraw.

In addition, two small cavalrymen stepped forward, ready to threaten Yuan Shaojun's prominent soldiers and horses from the flank to cover the retreat of the army.

"Cut! Look down on me too much! ”

Yan Liang suddenly exerted his strength, and the big knife knocked Gong Du's spear away with a single blow, and another sweep made Liu Bi unable to dodge, so he had to jump off the war horse.

On the side, Zhao Ang wanted to be saved, but he didn't want Yan Liang to rush over, and he hit it with iron armor all over his body, and he actually put down his war horse.

Seeing that Zhao Ang was about to be beheaded with a knife, an iron spear was shot several times in a row, forcing Yan Liang to withdraw his knife to defend before the three of them escaped.

This person is Li Tong, who is the strongest martial artist among the four.

However, the four of them went up together, and they still rode horses to deal with Yan Liang on foot, but they couldn't beat them. Now that the rear has been ringing gold, of course he does not dare to fight, and immediately retreats.

Yan Liang saw the enemy retreating, regardless of the number of opponents several times his own, he directly pursued and killed on foot, so that the rear team of the Tuntian army had to stop.

Liu Pi, Gong Du, Zhao Ang and others did not dare to fight Yan Liang again, and Li Tong weighed his own strength, intending to cover the retreat of the army with death.

"Phew"

A loud horse whistle sounded, and a team of heavy cavalry suddenly appeared on the side of Yan Liang and the others. The cavalry, all in heavy armor, the front row of people charged with guns, and the back row first rode and shot, and then swung their knives into the formation that Yan Liang was still pursuing.

The heavy cavalry and the heavy infantry collided, and suddenly the people turned on their backs, and the scene was extremely chaotic. Due to the superior position and formation, the heavy cavalry caused a lot of losses to Yan Liang's heavy infantry.

Seeing this, Yan Liang hurriedly slashed his broadsword and killed several dreadnought heavy cavalry, and the shield spearmen and crossbowmen in the rear team also followed up to kill the enemy, blocking the momentum of these heavy cavalry.

This group of cavalry is also the Tuntian Army, they are usually engaged in herding, and they are becoming more and more proficient in the training, breeding, and medical care of horses, and they can be formed into second-rate cavalry in wartime.

However, their heavy cavalry was not numerous, and it was difficult for the light cavalry to exert their might in such a scorching battle formation, so they had to shoot a burst of cavalry to cover the infantry of the brigade and retreat.

Yan Liang still had to pursue, and another archer cavalry appeared on the other side, seeing that the banner turned out to be "Gongsun", he had to maintain the formation of big shields and crossbowmen, pressing them little by little, forcing them back.

It turned out that this second group of cavalry was a group of Youzhou cavalry convened by Gongsun Xu, and they also participated in Tong Yuan's siege of Shangdang and the battle to rescue his father Gongsun Zan as a reserve force.

Yan Liang pursued slightly, but a large number of cavalry followed him on both flanks, and finally captured a small amount of ordnance and banners, and returned to the camp victoriously.

Zhang Ji's whole army retreated to the mountain camp, and the losses in this battle were not large, and finally withdrew from the battlefield in advance to implement the plan of deception, and deliberately lost some of the ordnance, making Yan Liang think that they had these strengths.

Li Tong, Liu Pi and others fought well head-on, but the four generals couldn't beat Yan Liang, and they did feel a bit of a real defeat.
