Chapter 1031: Careful Thinking on the Battlefield
The sun began to deflect to the west, and Fei Qian was immediately above the mound, just thrilling to see.
Although the battle between the two sides on the flat ground is naturally not as cruel and tragic as the siege of the city, the thousands of troops and horses gallop against each other, and the life and death of the fight are short-lived, and it is also bloody and abnormal.
The knights on both sides, almost in the blink of an eye, were all cut off the outermost layer!
War is so cruel, and there is no preference because it is different, the so-called god of war's favor is actually more often some excuses to comfort yourself, and more often you still need careful preparation before the war and brave fighting in the war.
Zhao Yun rushed to the forefront, and the spear shook away, blooming into gorgeous blood-colored flowers. The range of his spear attack is wide and large, and it is flexible and changeable, no matter whether the Xianbei on the opposite side is dodging or parrying, it seems to have no effect, as long as it is touched, it must be a bloody wound, and it is easy for everyone to kill the Xianbei army at the moment!
The impact and attack ability of the Han cavalry army is actually not as bad as later generations said. Some descendants believe that the Han Dynasty can defeat the Hu people, just using strong crossbows or infantry chariot formations, but in fact, the Han army is only stronger than the Hu people in this era!
Although in terms of equipment, there may still be some gaps with the well-equipped and well-protected cavalry of later generations, but the courage of the Han Dynasty to dare to fight head-on is even better than that of later generations.
But after all, it is a congenital deficiency, no matter how brave the Han cavalry is, the number of Hu cavalry is still a disadvantage, and the ability to control the scene is inevitably somewhat lacking, so that the Hu people with a large number of cavalry can choose the place of engagement and the way of engagement at will, so it is difficult to be passive in many cases, and it is difficult to chase and fight fiercely if you win, and it is difficult to retreat smoothly if you lose.
Therefore, as long as the Han army cavalry captures the main force of the Hu people, they can generally win a big victory, and if they are hung by the Hu people, they generally end up in defeat.
But to be specific to this, Fei Qianquan has the elite light cavalry and heavy cavalry of the Great Han, and each part is under his command, so the most important thing is to let the Xianbei people stick to the battlefield they have chosen, and don't escape easily!
Therefore, Zhao Yun will inevitably lead not many people, and it is inevitable that more will make Xianbei people timid, so although Zhao Yun has an advantage in local battles, such an advantage is really difficult to last.
The Xianbei army was not only the first two groups of cavalry, but also joined the battlefield with the influx of cavalry on both wings, on the one hand, they supported them with bows and arrows on the flanks, and on the other hand, they continued to compress the space for the Han cavalry.
Therefore, now the Han army cavalry is gradually falling into a disadvantage, if you rush to grab the outer circle, it is equivalent to exposing yourself to the range of the bow and arrow, and continue to go to the inner circle, in addition to expanding the disadvantage of their own numbers, there is no other benefit.
With the change of the battle array, even though Zhao Yun and the Han cavalry around him fought bravely, some Han cavalry had a few arrows hanging on their bodies, and some people were injured, but they still roared again and again, and fought bravely, but because of the gap in numbers, the Han knights were in a short stalemate with the Xianbei cavalry, not only failed to kill them back, but also gradually appeared in a state of exhaustion......
Originally, Yu Xiaowang Tuoba Guo Luo ordered to use a total of only one thousand troops to strangle Zhao Yun's troops, but as time passed, the Xianbei cavalry that slowly joined the battlefield unconsciously exceeded this number. The leaders of various tribes saw that the Han army cavalry fell to a weak position, and they couldn't help but repeatedly order their subordinates to join the battlefield, resulting in the Xianbei cavalry gathering more and more in the center of the battlefield, almost becoming a big pimple.
Although Tuoba Guoluo saw it in his eyes and had the intention to correct it, he was worried that it would be overkill, resulting in the escape of this part of the Han army in the center, not to mention that his main energy was still focused on the tricolor battle flag on the hill, in case the Han army over there rushed out, it was also necessary to adjust and dispatch combat power in time, so it was commanded by these Xianbei leaders in the middle of the battlefield.
These Xianbei leaders had some worries at first, but when they saw the Han cavalry being pressed and beaten, they suddenly gave birth to a kind of strength of the Han cavalry, and it was just such a feeling, if it weren't for the sharp armor, I am afraid that it would not have been able to support it for a long time!
Now the battlefield advantage is all in the expectation of Xiao Wang Tuoba Guo Luo.
Although the Han army cavalry is elite, but after all, the number is small, and if you deal with this side, you can't deal with that side, and the situation in front of you is obviously that the Han army has to transfer the Han army cavalry to fight the fire elsewhere, so it has to take out only a few hundred horsemen and horses to forcibly delay the advance of the Xianbei army in such a dangerous place!
But even if you add the Han army foot soldiers on the hill, how can this little force stop the hooves of the Xianbei cavalry!
If all these elite cavalry of the Han army who can roam and move on the battlefield are eliminated, then it means that these Han army foot soldiers can be manipulated at will!
Standing on a hill, although there is some terrain, what can it be?
Presumably, the other soldiers of this Han people have to disperse to defend everywhere, as long as these Han cavalry are defeated, even if they don't fight, surround them for two or three days, and after cutting off the water source, the Han army foot soldiers will collapse without a fight!
Then you can go to the Han land to take it wantonly, as Yu Xiaowang said!
Fei Qian watched the changes in the battlefield, and couldn't help but be a little anxious, and his hand tightly grasped the hilt of the long sword. Although Fei Qian was very confident in Zhao Yun, there was no eye for the sword and gun on the battlefield, and seeing Zhao Yun surrounded by a large group of Xianbei cavalry, it was inevitable that he would have some nervousness and worry.
What if Zhao Yun was too involved in killing and missed the opportunity to break through?
"Someone!" Fei Qian stared closely at the looming figure of Zhao Yun on the battlefield, and seeing the situation on the battlefield gradually deteriorating, he couldn't help but raise a hand and said, "Order......
Before Fei Qian finished speaking, he saw Zhao Yunhu roar in the middle of the battlefield: "Retreat!" Hurry back! Immediately, the spear in his hand was like a living hydra, and almost instantly attacked the different Xianbei cavalry around him at the same time, and the surrounding congestion was gone!
Before the Xianbei cavalry could react, Zhao Yun had already taken the Han cavalry beside him in front, brandishing his spear, and killed a bloody path, covering his subordinates to retreat towards the position of the small hill where Fei Qian was, and the few archers left on the hill also desperately opened their bows and arrows to meet the retreat of the robe......
In the short battle, the Han army had fifty or sixty horsemen, and the Xianbei cavalry lost even more, in the center of the battlefield, there were human corpses and horse corpses everywhere, and some soldiers and horses who were seriously injured and did not die immediately lay on the ground and mourned and screamed. The original green grass has now been dyed red, and this color has quickly turned purple and black, and the deep imprint has penetrated into the soil......
Zhao Yun hung three or four arrows and retreated, his martial arts and courage really left a deep impression on the Xianbei people, and he didn't dare to get close to him at all, although it was convenient for Zhao Yun to escape, but the arrows thrown from a distance were impossible to prevent, fortunately, the armor of the ordinary soldiers of the Han army was originally of high quality, not to mention the armor of generals like Zhao Yun. Therefore, although there were arrows hanging on the air, most of them did not hurt the body.
Zhao Yun couldn't help but turn around on the horse, only to see that the Xianbei army was still surrounding and slashing those Han army horsemen who failed to rush out in time, and couldn't help but let out an earth-shattering tiger roar angrily: "Go!" Come on! ”
Zhao Yun angrily pulled out his longbow and threw a few arrows at the Xianbei cavalry who were chasing and shooting at him, and suddenly shot down the horse one by one, and suddenly frightened the formation of Xianbei's pursuit to be soft!
After Zhao Yun finished shooting these arrows, he gritted his teeth, put away his bow, waved his hand without saying a word, and led the rest of the Han army to retreat straight towards the location of Feiqian's small hill.
At this time, the cavalry on both wings of Xianbei was already outflanked very closely, and when they saw that the Han army cavalry almost wiped this side and slipped over, they immediately screamed, as if a duck with wings to the beak had grown wings and flown away, and subconsciously followed Zhao Yun's troops with their teeth and claws.
Fei Qian on the hillside was not surprised to see this, as long as the Xianbei people could chase about half, this victory would be in their hands!
But then the sound of the Xianbei people's horn sounded again in the distance. This time, the voice did not have the slightest sense of excitement and progress, and it seemed a little slow and sluggish. Huang Xu was on Fei Qian's side, and suddenly pointed at the Xianbei army with his hand and said, "Junhou, the Xianbei army is no longer chasing!" The Xianbei team is slowly closing in, ready to turn back! ”
Fei Qian's heart sank sharply, and when he looked up, he saw that Xianbei's army was gradually slowing down their horses, preparing to turn around in the gap!
In the Xianbei army in the distance, behind several Xianbei people who held horns and whistled to the sky, it seemed to be the Xianbei Xiaowang!
The Xianbei people do not have their own etiquette norms, and many things are copied from the Han people, but it is not easy for the Hu people to get the golden drum, so most of them are replaced with horns. Thousands of people will send orders to two people, and ten thousand people will be four, increasing in turn, to the Xianbei King Budugen, the division number is sixteen people.
Although Xianbei Xiaowang did not play his own banner, the number of such divisions was inadvertently exposed......
"This guy!" Fei Qian said, "Sure enough, it's here! ”
As a Fei Qian who has fought with Hu people many times, he is already quite experienced. If there was no order from Yu Xiaowang on the scene here, then these Xianbei tribesmen who were originally scattered would not have been able to form any decent formation, let alone play such a delicate coordination as now.
According to the temperament of the Hu people, greed and short-sightedness are normal, most people are martial arts and bravery, and there are not many people who have a sense of the overall situation and take the strategic route, and unfortunately, this Xianbei Xiaowang is one of them......
Huang Xu said anxiously: "Junhou, what should I do?" Do you want to let Captain Zhao turn over and lead it again? ”
Hearing this, Fei Qian also hesitated for a while.
Seeing that the Xianbei people gradually collected the speed of their horses and began to walk back gradually, countless eyes were cast on Fei Qian, waiting for his orders. By Fei Qian's side, the soldiers also held the flag tightly, as long as Fei Qian gave an order, he could wave the flag, beat the golden drum, and notify him to go out!
What to do?
The brigade of the Xianbei people in the distance is slowly gathering and regrouping into a formation.
The commanders of the Xianbei people are not fools who automatically lower their IQ as soon as they go to the battlefield, they are also veteran generals who have been in battle for a long time, and they have also survived from the fight of one tribe to another, how can they be mindless people who obediently cooperate with everything?
Zhao Yun led the army and walked away, seeing that he could not close the whole credit, these Xianbei people did not greedily chase the team of hundreds of people, and exposed their flanks, but approached step by step, standing firm, and not revealing flaws.
Don't blindly win, but only seek to be undefeated, this is the proper bearing of a general of the unified army!
But such an enemy general has increased his difficulty!
What should I do?
Send Zhao Yun back again?
No, let's not talk about whether such a move is too obvious, just to say that Zhao Yun has just commanded the Han army and cavalry, and his physical strength is also consumed, even if it is Zhao Yun Wuyong, but this is not Changbanpo after all......
If you don't find a baby for Zhao Yun to hold, maybe you will add some of Zhao's inexplicable BUFF?
Ahem......
Fei Qian frowned, carefully observing the situation among the Xianbei brigade on the opposite side.
Behind the Xianbei soldiers holding horns in the distance, it seemed that he vaguely saw a few people behind him, pointing something here, although the distance was too far to see his eyebrows or something, but Fei Qian faintly felt like he heard the ridicule of these Xianbei people......
The Xianbei cavalry on the original two wings gradually gathered inside, but they only sent some rangers to protect the periphery, watching Zhao Yun and the others flee, but there was no intention of chasing......
The Xianbei rangers spread out to the sides, keeping the sentry and the guard......
What are Xianbei people thinking?
What would I do if I were a Xianbei person?
Fei Qian's brows furrowed tightly. Things have come to such a point, it is no longer feasible to abandon the layout here, and choose another battlefield, since it is already known that Yu Xiaowang on the other side is in the military array, then it is inevitable to let these Xianbei people be buried here!
But for such a cautious Xiao Wang, what kind of method should be used?
Well......
Caution?
Caution......
Fei Qian shouted loudly: "Zichu! You quickly go to the back of the hill and lead 400 cavalry out of the battle to cover Captain Zhao's turn! Order Captain Gan to lead the troops not to move! ”
"Junhou, this ......" Huang Xu hesitated a little, although he can ride a horse, he will not lead the cavalry, and the other is that he belongs to Fei Qian's personal guard, he left, what should I do with Fei Qian's side?
"It doesn't matter! Depending on the situation, the Xianbei people still need to form a team, and they won't be able to attack for a while......," Fei Qian said, "Wait for you and Captain Zhao to join forces, and then leave the banner over there, and quietly retreat yourself...... Then tell Captain Zhao to let his cavalry slowly press forward! Remember! It's a slow forward press! ”
Isn't Xianbei Yu Xiaowang just cautious, isn't he just worried that there will be something wrong with him here?
Good!
Then I'll flip one of my hole cards and throw them on the table!
Didn't you guess I had an ambush here?
Good! Now I'll show you, I do have an ambush here!
So now, it's your turn to believe it or not......
