Chapter 478: Fire Attack Strategy

Those who rushed to the middle of the car formation thought that they were going to pick up the leak successfully, but who knew that they were sent to the door by themselves and gave their lives to the account. Some of the Hun soldiers who ran a little behind found that the situation in front of them was not right, and they couldn't help but want to retreat back and join the large army behind.

However, if you want to retreat at this time, it is unlikely at all. Because Sun Tie and other crossbowmen, who had just retreated to the chariot, aimed at them at the back at this time, and after a wave of arrows went down, their retreat was completely cut off.

The more than 10,000 Hun cavalry behind saw that as soon as the army in front of them rushed into the Huashan army, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, and soon disappeared, and they couldn't help but be terrified.

At this time, their attacks on the north and south ends of the car formation were not smooth. But even so, the only option is to divide the forces and attack both ends first, and these two serious threats must be removed.

As a result, the two ends of the moon array were under great pressure. But there is no way to do it, because the most powerful part of the entire moon formation is located at the bottom of the moon. But this part of the power is to be used against the more than 4,000 people who rushed over.

If you don't wait for those people to be dealt with, it's almost impossible to support both ends of the Lunar Formation. Fortunately, there are a lot of chariots around, and the bows and crossbows are all long-range attack weapons, so they can be used for long-range support.

After the big battle outside the county town started for a while, Liu Weichen finally received the news from the rear. Hearing the sound of chirping in the sky above Li Erhei's army formation before, he felt that something was wrong, but after hearing the news again, he completely understood.

"Hit on both sides! This Huashan army seems to be ready to fight to the death! Liu Weichen let out a long sigh and said lightly.

"If that's the case, it's not necessarily a bad thing for us! After all, if we can eliminate all the enemy forces in this battle, this war will be completely over! The tribal leader next to him, when he heard this, said.

"That's it! Now that our forces have been divided into two halves, we still don't know how the battle will be! The important thing is that we don't know much about what is going on, which is extremely bad for us! The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for us! Go and find out what's going on, and come back to me right away!" Liu Weichen pondered for a moment and said to him.

"Yes, the villain will go and take a look!" The man hurried back in the direction of the camp.

Without knowing the enemy situation in the front and rear directions, it was impossible for Liu Weichen to make too many adjustments. After all, judging from the current situation, it seems that the part of the Huashan Army in front has been greatly affected, and under the pull of the war horse, the car formation has been somewhat shaken.

Although there were many people injured in this way, relatively speaking, as long as this method could be proved to be effective, it would be acceptable to him, and it could be used to deal with similar tactics in the future.

At this time, Li Erhei, in the face of the enemy's pull and pull of the chariot, also took new measures. Because people can't go out and cut those ropes, they have to rely on special means to deal with them.

And this particular means is also a hook sickle. Because of the special structure of the hook and sickle gun, it can be stretched out from the inside of the car and break the rope tied to the flying claws outside.

At the same time, the crossbowmen in the car are responsible for covering them, mercilessly destroying those who come close.

The Hun cavalry, who was desperately dragging the chariot in front and trying to pull it down, suddenly felt that his hand was loosened, and then the whole person fell directly from the horse. Before they could re-mount their horses, the arrows flying behind them took their lives.

Under such a method, Liu Weichen's idea was directly bankrupt and did not play any role at all. Seeing this scene, Liu Weichen's face darkened a lot, because he couldn't think of a better way to deal with these Huashan troops all of a sudden.

There was no way, he had to order the army to retreat temporarily, and after reforming the formation, he confronted Li Erhei's car formation about two miles apart.

It didn't take long for the people who had been sent back to check the situation to finally rush back, and after reporting the situation over there, Liu Weichen couldn't help frowning.

"Shan Yu, judging from the current situation, the Huashan Army is determined to trap us here. The opponent's car formation is too strong, it is almost full of thorns, and it will be too difficult for us to attack inside. The man next to him reminded.

"What can I do? You can't fight it, you can't retreat and you can't retreat, do you have any other way? If we can't solve these Huashan troops in front, when the other side is surrounded on both sides, we will really be trapped to death! "Why doesn't Liu Weichen know this, he's also nerve-wracking! Now, he can only count on these people around him to come up with a countermeasure.

What is the best way for these people around, but the situation is grim, and at this time, they can only think about it quickly. And just as they were trying to figure out a way, the rear battalion, the army kept sending people over to ask for instructions, wanting to know what to do next.

"Yes, although the opponent's car formation is strong, it must be fire-resistant! Let's prepare more butter to ignite the fire, and then send warriors to pour it into these chariots, and then set them on fire. As a result, a fire broke out in the car formation, and those Huashan troops must have collapsed without a fight. Thinking about it, the leader of a small tribe suddenly patted his head and said.

Hearing this method, Liu Weichen and the others couldn't help but light up, and after thinking about it carefully, they suddenly felt that it was very feasible.

After all, those chariots of the Huashan Army were not made of iron, but of wood. Even if it is wrapped in a layer of iron sheet, as long as it is stained with butter, it will definitely burn.

"If it's really a clever plan, if this plan can be successful, this single Yu will seal you as ten thousand households! Come, send an order to collect the troops, and go back to the camp first! Prepare butter to ignite the fire in the secret army, and use it all together when the next battle begins! Liu Weichen was overjoyed and agreed.

Soon, the Xiongnu army began to retreat. However, this retreat was still orderly, so Li Erhei and the others did not pursue it.

The same thing happened outside the city. The army of more than 10,000 people directly gave up rescuing the thousands of enemy troops who rushed over first, and slowly retreated to the camp.

Hu Tian and the others did not pursue, and waited until the enemy troops retreated, and did not have any intention of retreating, but stationed on the spot.

First, it is to destroy the enemy troops who rush over, and on the other hand, because this formation is not easy to form, if it is withdrawn now, the next enemy army will definitely not give a chance to set it up.

"How? Is it all cleaned up? In the evening, Hu Tian met with Sun Tie and asked.

"Well, all the enemy troops that rushed into the formation have been cleared. After this battle, the Xiongnu lost at least 3,000 people, and if you count General Li's side, it should add up to seven or eight thousand people! Sun Tie nodded and said.

"That's good, this at least shows that our tactics are right, just to restrain the Huns' cavalry. Otherwise, this battle would not have gone so smoothly. Now it seems that Liu Weichen has gathered all his forces together, and the question in front of us is what to do next! When Hu Tian heard this, he was quite happy, and after thinking for a while, he continued.

"What do you think we should move the formation forward and go directly to block the door of their camp?" Sun Tie asked.

"It's not easy! Once our car formation is formed, although it is not impossible to move, but if we leave the city behind us, I am afraid it will not be so advantageous. Again, General Li's side doesn't know if it will move forward, if not, we can't act on both sides at the same time, I'm afraid it will be a little inconvenient! After Hu Tian thought about it for a while, he felt that it was not feasible.

"Then let's not move! Leaning on the city behind us is also a big reliance for us. The most important thing is that if we are not close to General Li's side, if the Huns want to attack both of us at the same time, they must divide their troops. This is still very beneficial for dispersing their forces and reducing our pressure! Hearing this, Sun Tie also thought about it carefully, and finally decided that it would be better to stay still.

It is said that after Liu Weichen returned to the camp, he immediately began to prepare quietly. Butter is nothing to them, because when nomads travel, they often bring not dry food, but live cattle and sheep.

Because this kind of thing will go on its own, it can save the trouble of transportation. Another one, live cattle and sheep can also provide milk and goat milk, which can also be used for drinking at ordinary times, especially in the case of lack of water, this thing can solve a temporary emergency.

"Alone, after this battle, our losses on both sides totaled more than 8,000 people, and if you count them, they are almost one-third of the army. Fortunately, we will withdraw our troops quickly, and if we continue to fight, I am afraid that our army will be completely finished. The Huashan Army's car formation is really powerful, according to the subordinates, it is better not to start a battle with them lightly before they are completely prepared. After checking the situation in the camp, the generals around him immediately came to report, and the worry on their faces was very obvious.

"I know, pass the order, immediately speed up the preparation, be sure to prepare everything before the day after tomorrow! When the time comes, let's fight to the death with the Huashan Army and avenge this great revenge! Liu Weichen said coldly.
