Volume 2 Tragic Song Hu Jili Chapter 206 The Battle of Yishui Grassland
When Xiao Jinxing led 5,000 men and horses to the front and back of the Huaxu people, these Huaxu talents slowly divided a cavalry team of about 10,000 people and set up an array to meet Xiao Jinxing's reinforcements.
Xiao Jinxing stopped his horse, and after observing it, he ordered the whole army to be ready to surprise this cavalry team of Huaxu people at any time.
It's just that after the order was given, he subconsciously looked at Ayi'er with a calm face.
But Ayi'er smiled at herself through the veil unexpectedly.
Xiao Jinxing understood what this smile meant, so the trace of guilt in his heart was forcibly suppressed.
Xiao Jinxing also smiled at Ayi'er,
Then, after waiting for all the cavalry under his command to line up in array, he ordered the whole army to charge the Huaxu cavalry.
In this battle, Xiao Jinxing has to strike first!
Since the Huaxu people felt that they were small in number and despised themselves, he used the arrogance of the Huaxu people to tell them the truth that the arrogant army would be defeated.
Xin'er was summoned by Xiao Jinxing to Ayi'er's side to protect her aunt, so she was unable to participate in this charge.
In fact, since the last time she came back from the grassland, Ayi'er has often wronged Xiao Jinxing for this matter, and Xiao Jinxing is also afraid that Xin'er really dares to rush into the battlefield.
Even though he knew that Xiao Xin'er could use her dexterity to surprise and attack her unpreparedness in the fight, ordinary people were really not her opponents.
But the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, how dare Xiao Jinxing risk Xin'er's life again.
Xin'er, who was extremely disappointed, pursed her lips and kept telling something beside Ayi'er, but Ayi'er always looked at Xiao Jinxing who stood like a mountain in front of her with a smile.
Outside the Xijing of the Qin Kingdom, when he was at his most desperate, it was this soulless man who jumped into the icy river without saying a word after hearing his pleading.
In the yurt of the Yu tribe, when he was most conflicted, it was this man who exuded wisdom and courage who chose to embark on a different life path for the sake of himself and Xin'er giving up the peace he hoped for.
On the way to Huaxu Grassland, when he finally made up his mind, it was this man with countless responsibilities and commitments who chose to understand and respect himself.
What woman doesn't look forward to marrying such a hero in her heart.
But Xiao Jinxing, a man who never talks much but is willing to give all his efforts for himself, is destined to be just a hurried passer-by that Ayier will never forget.
The complaints in Xin'er's ears never stopped, but Ayi'er didn't listen to a word at all. She just squeezed Xin'er's hand tightly and said silently in her heart:
"Are you really not going to ask me why I'm going back?
How sad you must be for the efforts you made for me and Xin'er to get my ruthless departure. ”
"Hey, auntie, your face seems to be ......"
Xin'er, who was suddenly clenched by Ayier's hand, stopped talking and looked at Ayier's face strangely, but happened to see that the originally pitted face under Ayier's veil was as flat as a grassland and as white as mutton fat.
Although through the veil, the watery eyes and the high bridge of the nose under the veil are accompanied by the white skin like jade, Ayier is like a fairy falling into the dust, without a trace of dust.
Where is this still an ugly aunt, and where is Xin'er's familiar Ayi'er.
"Shh
Ayi'er stretched out a finger like an onion on her lips, made a silent gesture to Xin'er, and then pointed to Xiao Jinxing who was looking at the battlefield in front of her
Xin'er suddenly became excited, and nodded excitedly.
Although she was full of questions, she was still very happy for Ayi'er when she saw her aunt's face become so beautiful.
"When will I be as beautiful as my aunt?"
"Ulla, Ulla!"
The shouting and killing sound in the distance shifted Xin'er's attention to the battlefield again, but Xin'er was in a good mood because of Ayi'er's transformation and looked at the battle in the distance.
From her face, there is no worry about her side fighting more with less, but only the confidence of victory.
The cavalry sent by the Huaxu people to meet them was not only 10,000, but as many as 12,000 people, which was all the cavalry they could send.
The confusion was only an inevitable circumstance of their mobilization of cavalry from all over the place.
But in any case, the Huaxu people's lack of attention to reinforcements from the Yu people is still obvious.
It was 5,000 cavalry to help, but the Huaxu people always let them march smoothly until they came to their own side.
Despite this, when Xiao Jinxing's 5,000 cavalry had already charged in front of the Huaxu people, the Huaxu cavalry had also lined up and immediately killed Youyuren.
Seeing the cavalry of the Huaxu people slaughtering towards him, the cavalry of Youyu still slowly rushed towards the enemy with firm steps.
Both sides discharged the usual horizontal formations of the grassland, and as they got closer, they began to attack faster and faster.
It's just that Hua Xu's cavalry horizontal formation is different in Xiao Jinxing's opinion, they look extremely dense, as if they don't care much about the width of the horizontal formation.
If you look closely, you will find that there are countless small horizontal formations in the horizontal formation discharged by the Huaxu cavalry, and there is a distance between each small horizontal formation.
In doing so, it seemed that their cavalry array charge was far less dense than the one in the other tribes. But the obvious benefit is that such an array is extremely flexible.
Xiao Jinxing looked at it from a distance and immediately understood, isn't the formation of the Huaxu people the infantry phalanx commonly used by the countries in the Guannai.
Moreover, the reason why the Huaxu people discharged such an array, Xiao Jinxing could also guess a rough idea, they must have been frightened by the wedge-shaped battle formation after fighting with the Zhezhe cavalry, so they made a passive change.
Although the flexible "phalanx" can indeed play a certain role in counteracting the wedge-shaped cavalry charging array, Xiao Jinxing sneered and said:
"I only sharpened my gun before the battle, I'm afraid it's a little late.
Besides, I'm not going to use a wedge battle formation today. ”
Finally, in the midst of another shout of "Ula", I saw that the cavalry of the two sides was about to rush together.
The cavalry at the forefront of the formation on both sides could even see each other's expressions, but the Huaxu people were extremely surprised to find that the soldiers in the front row of Youyu's cavalry were all holding bows and arrows to charge.
"What are they going to do?
Are they going to charge with arrows? ”
The Huaxu cavalry saw clearly that the cavalry on Youyuren's side seemed to be holding bows and arrows, so they laughed out loud.
At the same time, they also raised the weapons in their hands, smiling at the people who were in danger and showing murderous aura.
"Put!"
"Boom!"
With a volley of Yu cavalry when the two cavalry were only two hundred paces away, the Hua Xu people saw a black curtain falling from the sky in the gap between the charge, and the Hua Xu people subconsciously climbed on the horseback.
Although they are also a little afraid of the oppression brought by the flying arrow, they are a little dismissive in their hearts.
At such a close distance, a few arrows could be shot by a Yu person, and an arrow shot at a distance of two hundred paces could hit several people.
Sure enough, a moment later, when the Huaxu cavalry looked up again, they saw a piece of arrow feathers inserted in the ground in front of them, but the Huaxu cavalry was not shot a few.
But when they looked at the people in front of them who were about to meet, they suddenly found that they were gone?
"Gone, what about the people?"
In an instant, many people had the illusion that the people who were in danger had disappeared after shooting the arrows.
But more people clearly saw that after shooting the arrows, those Youyu cavalry were divided into left and right sides and wrapped up towards the periphery of the Huaxu cavalry charge.
"Is someone crazy?
The number of people is not half of us and they want to surround us? ”
The Huaxu people watched the strange enemies do strange things.
But in an instant, they couldn't react quickly, so they could only rush forward while watching the Youyu cavalry on the left and right constantly fire arrows at the Huaxu cavalry who only held short weapons in their hands.
And this time, the Huaxu people were not as lucky as they were in the first round of archery.
Between the two sides at high speed, those people with arrows were like the god of death harvesting life, plundering the lives of one after another helpless Huaxu cavalry.
The two sides all staggered, and after continuing to run forward for a distance, the Hua Xu people were ready to turn their horses' heads and charge again. It's just that Hua Xu's cavalry had an extremely ugly look on their faces.
The leader of the Huaxu people nervously made new arrangements, but before they could make proper arrangements, the cavalry of the Yu people rushed up again.
Seeing that there was no time to make changes, the leader of their troops immediately ordered the soldiers to rush forward in two directions against the two groups of Yu cavalry.
Only this time, just like the previous time, the people who had been divided into two ways separated again, and continued to harvest life with bows and arrows on the flanks.
Except for some soldiers who couldn't bear the frustration of passively waiting for death and rushed out of the battle column to shoot some people with bows and arrows, the rest of the men and horses were tired of running and killing by the neck.
And those Huaxu cavalry who rushed out of the array, they could only give a drop in the bucket to the Yu people, and the vast majority of them would soon be besieged by several Yu people and shot to death in the wilderness as soon as they broke out of the queue.
After several battles back and forth, the leader of the Huaxu people finally made a bold decision.
He ordered all of Hua Xu's men to break out of the array and fight separately.
After the order was issued, the long-standing resentment of the Huaxu cavalry was instantly released.
Throughout the Yishui grassland, the Huaxu people rushed towards the people around them as if they were crazy.
But what made them quite helpless was that those risky cavalry saw this but did not engage in battle, and they immediately turned around and ran without the slightest hesitation.
In a short time, there were shocking scenes on the grassland, and everywhere there seemed to be a Yu cavalry being chased by two or three Huaxu people behind him.
But in the process of chasing, Youyu people showed a more desperate performance, they ran and sent cold arrows to the Huaxu people behind them, the accuracy of the cold arrows was obviously after more than a year of training.
This fragmented battle quickly caused more casualties among the Huaxu.
