Chapter 328: An Invincible Curse
No one in the hussar battalion could question Qin Cheng's authority, and the old pawns before naturally did not have to worry, and those new pawns, Qin Cheng needed to teach them what the iron military discipline of the hussar battalion was, and what absolute obedience was.
When necessary, Qin Cheng didn't mind killing a hundred people.
There were about 3,000 Hun cavalry rushing out of the town, and they converged with the retreating more than 1,000 Hun cavalry and began to attack Ma Dashan and Le Yi together.
"General Le, follow up!" Ma Dashan let the surrounding heavy cavalry assemble in an orderly manner, and then turned around and shouted at Le Yi who was not far away.
"Less nonsense, go you!" Le Yi unloaded the right arm of a Hun cavalry in front of him with a knife, and responded to Ma Dashan's words, while beckoning the light cavalry to cover the assembled heavy cavalry. The Hun cavalry was not neatly defeated, so many remained on the battlefield.
Ma Dashan grinned, pointed his long knife at the Hun cavalry who rushed out of the town, and shouted to the hundreds of heavy cavalry gathered around him: "Heavy cavalry, charge!" ”
Most of the heavy cavalry that had withdrawn from the melee in an orderly manner, followed closely behind Ma Dashan when he was in the lead, and with the unique strong charging posture of the heavy cavalry, they crashed into the Hun cavalry that had joined forces in front.
"Light Ride, Charge!" At the same time as the heavy cavalry rushed out, Le Yi's long knife was drawn forward, and more than half of the two thousand light cavalry gathered behind him, and then under the cover of the heavy cavalry, they rushed towards the military formation of the Hun cavalry on the opposite side.
The heavy cavalry tore apart the army formation, and the light cavalry or followed up to expand the results of the battle or outflank the two wings, which was the most common cooperative attack method of the hussar battalion's light and heavy cavalry, and it was also the reason why Qin Cheng was confident that he could use 3,000 cavalry to fight against the Xiongnu's 5,000 or 6,000 cavalry.
Now the situation is very clear, the three thousand Hun cavalry outside the town is the bait, if the hussar battalion rushes up together regardless of the reason, just thinking about instantly wiping out this team, then the three thousand Hun cavalry in the town will rush out, and the six thousand Hun cavalry will seize the opportunity to bite the hussar battalion army to the death, providing an opportunity for the Hun army to rush out of the mountain roads on both sides to provide an opportunity to attack on both sides. If this is the case, the situation facing the hussar battalion will be extremely bad if it is attacked on both sides and the center will blossom.
"General, look!" On this side, Qin Qingzhi suddenly stretched out his hand and shouted at the battlefield in front of him that was fighting fiercely.
Qin Cheng and Liu Mu turned their heads to look, and saw that in the melee battlefield, a large group of Hun cavalry had separated and rushed towards the place where Qin Cheng and the others were arrayed, and the momentum was very fierce.
"The Lord is coming." Liu Mu said in a deep voice.
Qin Cheng nodded, staring at the group of Hun cavalry who came like wolves treading water, and as they approached step by step, Qin Cheng slowly pulled out the ring head knife.
However, without waiting for Qin Cheng to order, an earth-shaking shout suddenly erupted from the group of Hun cavalry: "The Great Hun Beihai King is here, where is Qin Cheng?" Come out and die! ”
The shouts were quite neat, and it was rare that the momentum was like a rainbow.
Qin Cheng listened, and the action of drawing the knife froze slightly, and he felt a sense of irony.
Unlike Qin Cheng, the willow wood Qin Qingzhi beside him, and the three thousand hussar battalion soldiers lined up behind Qin Cheng were enraged, and they all gritted their teeth with hatred as they stared at the Hun cavalry rushing in front of him.
Qin Cheng raised the drawn ring head knife, swung it forward, and shouted: "Hussar battalion, charge!" ”
The soldiers of the 3,000 hussar battalions, who had been motionless in the face of the tragic battlefield close at hand, drew their long knives one after another when they heard the order, and a long and loud knife roar resounded in the sky, and 3,000 snowy and cold long knives neatly snatched out of their sheaths. In the next moment, the three thousand long knives all fell on the horse's buttocks behind the knight, and with the sound of neighing, the twelve thousand horses' hooves left the place and began to step on the rhythmic rhythm, kicking countless fine dust, and slowly galloping.
Quiet as a virgin, moving as a rabbit. The three thousand hussars and iron horsemen led by Qin Cheng ran a few hundred steps, and then raised the speed, and suddenly there was a bit of momentum of strong winds, clouds flying, and mountains and rivers trembling. And at this moment, the thousands of Hun cavalry led by the king of the North Sea, Dan Wolf, are also about to arrive in front of them. Many cavalrymen on the edge of the two armies were treading water, and the splashing white water was even higher than the heads of the cavalry, hitting the sergeant's face, but it was a little agitated.
"Hussar battalion, forward!" When he was only a few hundred paces away from the Hun cavalry, Qin Cheng shouted again.
The voice fell, and the thousand heavy horsemen who were running in the front rushed straight forward, and the Qin halberd, which was one zhang eight long, its cold blade was like a death sickle, aimed at the Hun cavalry in front of them, driving the war horses to meet them.
At the same time, the two thousand light horsemen, whose speed was faster than the heavy cavalry, suddenly increased their speed, broke away from the military formation, one left and one right, and circled the two wings of the Hun army formation in front, like a giant stretched out his arms, trying to strangle the Hun army formation between his arms and trap him.
At a distance of only a few hundred paces, when the red wolf saw the changes in the military formation of the hussar battalion, it was too late to react. He didn't intend to react either, in his red eyes, the Han army in front of him was just a flock of lambs to the slaughter. With his extraordinary martial arts of the King of Beihai, he believed that as long as he killed the other party's main general, that is, the Qin City that made many Huns frightened, the Han army in front of him would inevitably be defeated!
It was precisely because he had made up his mind that in the midst of the chaotic army, he decisively led people out of the formation and rushed towards Qincheng.
In a brief battle with the hussar battalion with 6,000 cavalry against 6,000 Hun cavalry, Dan Wolf discovered two important issues related to the victory or defeat of the battle.
First of all, he found that the combat power of the cavalry of the hussar battalion was far beyond his imagination, although Princess Icher had warned him before coming, but he could not have imagined that the armor of those cavalry who rushed to the front was so thick, and the blades in their hands were so strong, that is, even the war horses were covered with armor! A charge down, it is very simple to tear a hole in his military formation, no matter how you block it!
Although the wolf is arrogant, he is not without brains, so he can clearly foresee what direction the next battle will develop if he doesn't do something.
When the wolf was in a hurry, he saw Qin Cheng, which had stayed a few miles away and had not moved, in the melee. The yellow flag with the word "Qin" fluttering in the wind exposed the identity of Qin Cheng, the so-called handsome does not leave the flag, the flag does not leave the handsome, where the yellow flag is, the hussar battalion master will naturally be there. When the wolf found out about this phenomenon, he immediately became excited, he was confident in his skills, he knew that as long as he killed the commander of the hussar battalion, he would be able to save the unfavorable situation on the battlefield!
Without the slightest hesitation, Dan Wolf left some people to drag the six thousand hussar battalion iron horsemen, and he took some of the people out of the battlefield and killed directly towards Qincheng!
At this time, he stared at Qincheng with cold eyes, which was close to the Hun army, and did not know that the opponent's army had secretly aimed a sharp blade at him, just like when he killed the Huns' left bone and retreated from the Huns' chasing army, and now there are also Hun soldiers who want to kill themselves and retreat from the hussar camp.
People who are in unfavorable circumstances are always more likely to have desperate thoughts than those who are in good circumstances, and often the more unfavorable the situation, the greater the determination to do so.
It is the king of the North Sea Dan Wolf did not intend to pay attention to the hussar battalion light cavalry that threatened his two wings, the more arrogant the person will not allow himself to fail, the Dan Wolf just wants to pounce on his two or three thousand people, break through the Han army's military formation, and then kill Qin Cheng, when the time comes, all crises will no longer exist, the battlefield situation will be reversed, and the curse that the Huns have been invincible against the main force of the Han army in recent years will also end in his hands!
Thinking of this, the battle intent in the heart of the Dan Wolf became a lot stronger! Because it would be a great honor, an opportunity for his name to resound in the grassland!
"Rush for me, kill Qin Cheng!" The wolf roared.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
When the two armies intersected, the shouts became monotonous, and only this simplest word could express the hearts of the officers and men of the two armies at this moment. At this time, in the hearts of all the sergeants, there is only one word left in the world, and that is to kill!
Qin Cheng's hand holding the long knife was bruised because it was clenched too tightly, and the sweat of excitement wet the handle of the knife, and with a heartfelt roar coming out of his throat, the long knife in his hand cut a beautiful arc through the air, slashing into the body of one of the other Hun centurions while cutting a hole in the air! The galloping war horse made Qin Cheng, who wielded the knife, not need to be forcefully brought out after swinging the knife, and the blade that was stained with blood and became hot bit a large piece of flesh and blood on the centurion's body!
The Hun centurion, who was slashed by the blade, originally had blood flowing rapidly in his body, and at this moment his body opened a hole, and those excited blood rushed out of the body that had bound them all his life, and flew into the air with the intention of embracing the blue sky in a short period of freedom!
Behind these jets of blood, the skin of their master's body turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the centurion's blood gushed out much faster than usual because of the jolting of the horse's running, and the wound was cracking and expanding.
When the centurion's pupils widened and the scream was just halfway out, Qin Qingzhi, who was closely behind Qin Cheng, easily slashed his neck with the long knife in his hand, bringing out a smooth blood line! The centurion's body shook twice on the horse's back, and then he fell stiffly. And the war horse that grew up with him and accompanied him on the expedition was still galloping with his life, until he rushed out of the battlefield, and the war horse felt that the master on his back was gone.
The war horse glanced back at the chaotic battlefield behind him blankly, trying to find his master's figure from it, but it was only a piece of blood red that reflected each other!
"Qin Cheng?!" Qin Cheng rushed in front of a fierce sergeant, the robe had the luxury that ordinary Hun sergeants did not have, he swung his knife and touched the ring knife in Qin Cheng's hand, his cold-blooded eyes stared at Qin Cheng's face, and he screamed, as if asking and drinking.
Qin Cheng didn't speak, and the two staggered past in the blink of an eye, unless they deliberately stopped the war horses to fight, the cavalry would never be able to swing a second sword at one person at the same time.
