Chapter 476: The Great War is in the Swing

As soon as the strong crossbow came out, the Hun soldiers who ran in front immediately fell directly to the ground one by one, and were trampled by a large number of cavalry who rushed over, and then more people fell. In such a great war, the life and death of the individual has become insignificant. For the Hun cavalry, they could only rush forward, and the only hope was to rush to the front of the Huashan army in the shortest possible time. Either kill all the soldiers of the Huashan Army, or overturn all these chariots in front of you, and then kill the Quartet.

Because there were too many people coming this time, it was much more difficult for Huashan Army. Although it is said that the strong bow and crossbow are in the hand, it is not easy to contain the enemy's offensive when the enemy army is relatively scattered.

It's not like before, the enemy is already trapped in a small space, so it's very advantageous to do anything about it. Now facing so many enemies, the number of people on Li Erhei's side is too small, so he has to find another way to deal with it.

The best thing to do is to bring these enemies together as you did before. But the problem is that you have to score steps, not all of them all at once, otherwise the whole formation will inevitably collapse.

"Let the enemy in!" Li Erhei watched the enemy run wildly in front of the formation, and ordered.

Soon, the command flag of the Huashan Army waved, and there were some new changes in the two car formations in front. Their attacks began to focus on the enemy forces on both sides, and for the Hun cavalry in the middle, they basically let go directly.

In this way, the flanks of the 10,000-strong Xiongnu army were subjected to a fierce attack, which in turn prevented their forward attack. At this time, the enemy army in the middle part was not greatly hindered, so there was a speed difference in the Hun army.

The part of the enemy army in the middle quickly broke away from the whole army, and rushed into the chariot formation like an arrow from a string. Looking at that posture, it seems that he is directly heading towards the car formation where Li Erhei is.

"Quick, immediately order the others to follow, and don't get too entangled with the two car formations in front of you. As long as our army enters the three car formations, we will be able to burst their formation! As soon as Liu Weichen, who was in the back, saw that this was the case again, he immediately ordered.

The lessons ahead are not far away, and the corpses on the ground are still piled up there, Liu Weichen can't let Huashan Jun shoot like last time. But such a great opportunity cannot be missed, so the best way is for the whole army to rush over, and it is best if the army of 10,000 can be killed.

Whether it is Li Erhei or Liu Weichen, they all understand that one of the weaker aspects of this vehicle formation is that it is relatively bulky after all, and it is not as mobile and flexible as the cavalry.

And this also determines that the gap between the car arrays is relatively fixed. It's like a cup, but if you keep pouring water into it with a limited capacity, it will only overflow in the end.

In the case of the car formation, if there are many people, it will eventually collapse. As long as this chariot formation is dispersed, it will not be so effective to deal with these cavalry.

The Hun general who led the army in front also discovered this at this time, not to mention, he had also watched the battle from behind before. Therefore, under the circumstances at this time, without waiting for the military order to be conveyed in the rear, the method of operation has already begun to be changed.

Most of the troops had already been concentrated in the middle, and they rushed towards the middle in one go. But unlike before, the people who rushed to the front this time, when they reached the middle, jumped off their horses uncharacteristically.

Cavalry abandons their horses and fights on foot, this kind of thing is relatively common in the Central Plains forces, but for nomads, it is really a very rare thing. Li Erhei felt a little strange at first glance, but after seeing the actions of these people, he understood.

Because these Huns who reached between the two chariot formations first, holding a small cowhide shield in one hand, resisting attacks from both sides. On the other side, they quickly climbed onto the corpses of the Hun soldiers before, and jumped directly to the middle of the chariot formation on both sides from above with the help of this height.

"It's a little more clever, and he actually used the corpses of his comrades as stepping stones, thinking of jumping directly into the car formation and destroying the car formation from the inside!" After Li Erhei saw it, he couldn't help but sigh.

After all, since the end of the previous battle, it has not been an hour until now, and the other party has already thought of destroying it from the inside, and I have to say that Liu Weichen and they are not completely brainless.

After all, no matter how strong a fortress is, it is relatively easy to break through from the inside!

The advantage of the car formation is that it protects the Huashan Army soldiers inside, so that they can counterattack without being attacked by the enemy. And if there is a scuffle inside after losing this layer of protection, the operation of the car formation will inevitably be affected.

Although it was said that the bloody battle of the shirtless army was more advantageous to the soldiers of the Huashan army, it was likely that the Hun soldiers would increase the casualties in vain. But from another point of view, as long as the operation of the chariot formation is affected and the Hun soldiers and horses of the brigade can enter the formation, for Liu Weichen, this little casualty is obviously acceptable.

However, the reality is always very cruel, when these soldiers jumped directly from the pile of corpses, thinking that they could enter the Huashan military chariot array, they were greeted by sharp spears that rose straight up.

The tip of the spear flashed with a cold light, and some people who had just jumped over had no way to control their bodies, so they were directly pierced by the spear.

Then, the soldiers of the Huashan Army in the car formation worked together and threw the spear in their hands outward, and threw the corpse to the pile in the middle.

In this way, those who came first did not achieve much success at all, although it had some impact on the overall defense, but it was also harmless.

On the contrary, this approach achieved another rather unexpected result, that is, because more and more corpses were piled up in the middle, but the road for the Huns to rush to the rear of the car formation was blocked.

Not only was their way forward blocked, but even the road where Li Erhei's car formation moved forward was also blocked! In this case, the position of the battle will have to be placed in front of the two armies.

And such a result was obviously unfavorable for the Huns, because they did not have the means to break through the two car formations.

"It's a chess move! I forgot about it before, and after the road in the middle was blocked, I couldn't even get out. Li Erhei shook his head, a little helpless.

Liu Weichen's side also quickly discovered this, which was tantamount to blocking his own way forward. He can't help it, he can't say that he will make a gesture to the Huashan army on the opposite side, everyone pause, and wait until these corpses are moved away before coming to the big battle!

"Let them come back first, and then fight after regrouping!" After thinking for a while, Liu Weichen ordered.

Soon, the sound of the horn sounded again, and after hearing this sound, the Hun cavalry, which had been constantly shooting, retreated one after another. Retreat to more than two miles away from the Huashan military vehicle formation and begin to regroup.

"Clean up the corpse in front of you!" When Li Erhei saw this opportunity, he immediately ordered.

"But..... General, it's not appropriate to clean up at this time! If the enemy takes the opportunity to kill, won't we be caught off guard? A general next to him couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this.

"It's okay, for the Huns, this is also a trouble, so they shouldn't rush over at this time. Besides, I'd love to see them rush right now! Li Erhei said lightly.

Hearing this, the surrounding people did not say anything more, and the military order was quickly conveyed. Hundreds of soldiers quickly ran out of the rear and began to carry the corpses of the Hun soldiers.

The bodies were uniformly transported to the south side of the woodland, not far away. In short, it will not hinder the movement of the first two car formations.

Sure enough, as Li Erhei expected, the Hun army on the opposite side did not make any movement at all after seeing the movements of the Huashan army. It can even be said that they deliberately delayed the operation.

There seems to be a tacit understanding between the two sides, and they are ready to wait until these corpses are cleaned up before they start fighting.

Soon, the chariot array was already cleaned up, and the Huns, who saw this scene, immediately rushed over again. It was still a big frontal impact, but the distance between the cavalry was much larger than before.

Obviously, they were trying to minimize casualties during the charge. But this time, they did not rush to the rear, but first concentrated their forces to kill the passage in the middle.

Their target was aimed at the adjacent inner side of the two car formations in front, while the two flanks were constantly attacking the outside of the two car formations with less force. Not only have the methods changed, but even the means have changed.

Because as soon as they arrived, they no longer rushed directly into the passage between the two formations as before. Instead, they quickly ran over, and after avoiding Hua Shanzhi's attack, the soldiers threw ropes with flying claws into the chariot formation.

As soon as the claws caught the cart, they turned around and ran back in the direction they had come, and the ropes tightened. Obviously, they want to use this method to pull down all these big cars in front of them.

This thing was really an unexpected thing for the Huashan army, after all, they really didn't expect the enemy army to carry this kind of thing before.
