Seeing that the Huns had basically all entered the formation, Li Erhei immediately ordered: "Change the formation, trap them, and destroy them!" With the banner behind him, the entire formation immediately began to change. Originally, it was a zigzag formation, but suddenly all three square military formations moved, each of which seemed to be a bird with its wings suddenly spread, and at this moment, a large car broke away from the formation.

Then, the carts moved closer to the middle, and each of the two carts seemed to be holding hands with each other, quickly and calmly connecting together.

So, not long after, although the entire zigzag formation was still there, there was an extra ring in the middle, connecting the three square military formations that were originally separated.

The distance between the three phalanxes was about two miles, and at such a distance, it was not a loose choice for three thousand cavalry. I didn't think it was sealed before, but now that the encirclement was suddenly closed, the space inside immediately became cramped.

Originally, logically speaking, the speed of the change of the car formation was far less than the impact speed of the cavalry. As long as the Hun cavalry accelerated their charge, they were likely to rush out of the range of the chariot formation at the beginning.

But the mistake is that the Hun general who led the troops did not realize this at the beginning, or there was already a contempt in his heart from the beginning. So, at the beginning, it was a lot slower.

In addition, when Li Erhei changed the formation, it was naturally impossible for the enemy to take the opportunity to run away. Whenever someone tries to rush out of the gap between the three formations, they will be hit by two formations on both sides at the same time.

Imagine how ordinary light cavalry could rush out in the midst of this rain of arrows. If it's a hoplite, it's not too much of a problem. The fighters were fleeting, and the Huns did not rush out at the beginning, and in the end they could only fall into this encirclement.

When the Hun cavalry saw that they were surrounded by it, they became a little busy for a while. All the war horses were almost huddled together, clashing back and forth within this encirclement, as if they were spinning in circles, ready to find the weak point of the encirclement and break through.

However, these big cars in front of them are not lower than them, so if you want to jump out directly, it is unlikely. And the bows and arrows in their hands, or other weapons, did not have much effect in the face of these strong shields and carriages.

Except for some sharpshooter-level soldiers, they can shoot arrows directly through the gap between the shield compartments~ into it. However, even so, they still had to face the armor on the soldiers of the Huashan Army.

In other words, even if the Hun soldiers went through layers of difficulties and finally attacked the soldiers of the Huashan Army, they would not be able to cause any damage to them at all.

"Shoot the arrows!" The enemy was completely trapped, and Li Erhei no longer had any hesitation, and then gave an order.

As the order was given, extremely sharp arrows flew out from each cart, which was almost something that did not need to be aimed, and was placed directly in the middle.

In such a narrow range, although the Hun soldiers tried their best to block, they could not resist so many pervasive arrows.

For a while, the entire encirclement was full of screams, and one by one the Hun cavalry fell from the top of the war horse after being hit by arrows. Faced with such a desperate situation, many of the Hun soldiers panicked and rushed towards the chariot formation, wanting to break away from the encirclement.

But this was doomed to be futile, because they could not even pass the spear array in front of the chariot, and before they could touch the carriage, they were directly stabbed into hedgehogs.

On Liu Weichen's side, not long after seeing his soldiers and horses enter the car formation, the front two car formations directly stretched out, and then directly connected together, completely closing the retreat of the three thousand men and horses.

At this point, the situation is already clear, and his 3,000 men and horses have already fallen into the encirclement. If you can't break out of it, I'm afraid that the end of the whole army is doomed.

"Shan Yu, the situation is not good! Judging from this situation, if we don't send troops to help quickly, I'm afraid these 3,000 men and horses will be finished! A clan leader next to him reminded.

Everyone knows that after being surrounded by chariots like this, the advantage of the war horse can be said to be completely lost. And once this advantage is lost, those people inside will have to be slaughtered.

Liu Weichen's face was gloomy as water, how could he not see the situation in front of him. However, at this time, his purpose of testing the Huashan Army was basically achieved, at least, he already understood how the Huashan Army's chariot formation dealt with his cavalry.

"Although the Huashan Army's rook formation is extremely strong, and our soldiers can't attack them, they also have a weakness, that is, the space between the rook formations is too small. It would not be a problem to deal with the 3,000 men, but if there were a little more of them, they would not be able to surround them. The order was sent down, and 10,000 troops were immediately mobilized from the camp to storm the enemy formation with all their strength and rescue the 3,000 men and horses! After thinking about it, Liu Weichen ordered.

"Yes, my subordinates will give orders!" The generals next to him immediately went to work.

"Also, it should be noted that the Huashan army in the county will take the opportunity to kill and support the Huashan army in the east, and order the remaining army to drive out of the camp and list the Huashan army outside the city to deter the Huashan army in the city. Wait until we solve the Huashan Army here, and then deal with the problems over there! Liu Weichen then ordered.

Obviously, he has now thought it through, and he has already made a difference in the combat methods of the Huashan Army. What he has to solve first now is Li Erhei's soldiers and horses who threaten his retreat.

Logically speaking, there is no problem with such an arrangement. After all, if Li Erhei's soldiers and horses have not been solved, if there is any problem along the way, or if he can't attack for a long time and wants to retreat and go back, I'm afraid he won't be able to leave!

And Liu Weichen's army was being mobilized, and before it reached the outside of the city, the Hun soldiers in the chariot array were already almost killed or wounded. After all, in this almost one-sided situation, they have no power to fight back.

After all, Liu Weichen's reinforcements still did not arrive in time, and when they were still on the road, the Hun soldiers in the car array were already dead and wounded. In addition to the corpses in one place, what remained were ownerless war horses.

"Change the formation, restore the formation, and clean up these war horses!" Li Erhei immediately ordered.

As the new order was given, the bloodthirsty spears were put away, and the carts quickly retreated. Many soldiers disembarked from the chariots and went to the battlefield to drive the surviving horses to the rear.

It didn't take long for the three square car formations to reappear in front of everyone as before. It's just that this time is different from the previous one, in that there are a bunch of corpses between the three car formations.

Almost no one survived, after all, in that kind of chaotic situation of arrows, basically everyone was hit by several arrows in their bodies, so it's no wonder that they survived!

Seeing the piles of corpses like a hill, the Hun army that had just arrived suddenly turned green. After all, it was a completely different feeling to pile up the corpses and lie on the ground scattered.

The Huashan Army's car formation was still strong, but it was only stained with more blood, and it seemed that it was not moving at all, as if it had not moved for half a minute. But in the eyes of the Huns on the other side, this is like a fierce beast with its mouth wide open and ready to swallow itself at any time.

"Rush! Avenge them! Soon, there was an angry shout from the Hun army.

Immediately, the Hun army moved, and the scene of tens of thousands of cavalry charging was really not an ordinary shock. Rao is a veteran of the Huashan Army who has experienced a hundred battles, and under this loud sound like thunder, he felt the tremor of the earth under the end, and he couldn't help but feel a slight sinking in his heart.

In comparison, the surging Yellow River not far from the north is probably the most calm, after all, this is not the first time that this river has witnessed such a big battle!

It was the first time for Li Erhei himself to face such a large-scale cavalry charge, and he only had 6,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. Although there is a big car to rely on, it is the first time to use such a tactic after all, so I feel a little nervous in my heart.

"Shoot the arrows!" As the armies of the two sides got closer and closer, when the other party finally entered the firing range, Li Erhei shouted loudly.

The next moment, a rain of arrows flew out of the chariot and flew towards the Hun soldiers who rushed over. This rain of arrows is very dense and powerful. As soon as it flew out, a peculiar whistling sound immediately formed.

"Crossbow! They have a powerful crossbow in their hands! Liu Weichen, who was not in the rear behind him, couldn't help but listen carefully when he heard this voice, and then said with a shocked face.

The bow and crossbow have always been the nemesis of cavalry, after all, no matter how fast your horse runs, can it fly faster than an arrow? Moreover, when you react, I'm afraid it's too late.

Especially the strong crossbow in it, as long as this thing has enough strength, it doesn't take too long to train to be able to use it freely. Think about the time when Meng Tian expanded the land and expelled the Xiongnu, one of the most powerful reliance was the Qin crossbow that made the world fearful.

Although Liu Weichen had not seen the power of Qin's crossbow, and he didn't know whether the strong crossbow of the Huashan army on the opposite side was comparable to Qin's crossbow, but at this time, when he saw this momentum, it was already extraordinary.
