Chapter 65: Providence (Part 1)

The Xianbei cavalry could only desperately approach, and then stabbed these heavily armored knights of the Han army with iron spears, only to find that their iron spears could not penetrate the heavy armor of the Han army at all, but the horse lance of the Han army could smash themselves and vomit blood.

The chariots and heavy cavalry of the Han army, led by "Lu Bu", easily chiseled through the Xianbei cavalry in front of the left flank of the Han army. Then it was interspersed with the rear team of the Xianbei people who had not yet dispersed, and it was still crushed.

Everything that stood in the way of progress was directly knocked over, and "Lu Bu" even knocked off a commander who was in command.

Next, the Xianbei cavalry in front of the right flank of the Han army ran into it from behind, and the soldiers of the Han army who witnessed all this were excited, and the slogan had unconsciously become "Long live Lu Bu!" "Long live the Han Army!"

Not surprisingly, it easily swept the Xianbei cavalry on the right flank, and finally the chariot and heavy armored iron cavalry, under the leadership of "Lu Bu", successfully swept the Xianbei cavalry in front of the Han army, and returned to the rear of the formation from the right flank.

It's not that they don't want to go back and sweep again, but the weight of the chariots and heavy armored cavalry is too great, even if the war horses are all Hexi horses and good horses from the Western Regions, they are overwhelmed and don't have the physical strength to do it again.

This attack lost five chariots and nearly a hundred heavily armored knights, but they killed no less than 2,000 Xianbei cavalry, and directly crushed this wave of attacks of the Xianbei people.

The Han infantry boosted their morale, took the opportunity to storm the Xianbei people who were still a little dazed, and also killed many Xianbei people, and finally the Xianbei people receded like the sea at low tide, leaving corpses in the ground.

The defeated Xianbei people regrouped around Helian, and the royal court guards had all passed through the trench, and finally stayed away from the already scorching land, and they were all very comfortable.

He Lian looked at the 30,000 royal court guards who had finally gathered around him, and he was distressed and wanted to cry without tears.

He didn't feel that the situation was wrong until now, there were tens of thousands of cavalry in Lu Bu's army, but after fighting for so many days, except for Zhang He's five thousand Hejian elite cavalry, it was these terrible heavy armored cavalry just now.

Helian, who has backward iron-smelting technology and lack of materials, definitely belongs to "poverty limits his imagination", he never thought that the cavalry could be equipped like this, this is definitely the king of the cavalry, why didn't he think of it earlier?

He Lian, who had no way to retreat, could only choose to continue the attack, "Don't use any ranger tactics, all rush into battle, and we must fight a bloody way out of the hands of the Han army, otherwise we will be wiped out here." He yelled at the captains.

After fighting against the water, the warriors who are the most capable of fighting among these Xianbei people have also understood their situation, and they do not need to mobilize again, they have already made up their minds to die.

The previous fear and vacillation have gradually receded, and the royal court guards that crisscrossed the grassland and defeated the Huns have returned.

It seemed that he felt the change in the opponent's aura, and the atmosphere in the Han army formation became more solemn.

Jia Xu also had a solemn expression, or at the last moment, this time, but there are no hole cards, let's fight, look at this day, it's time to go, Lu Bu's side should almost be in place. "General Gao Shun, release the last carrier pigeon."

Next, let's fight to the death, Zhang Liao's chariot battalion and the wolf cavalry of the broken army only have the power to charge once, and they are no longer able to fight, and now only Zhang He's Hejian elite cavalry can still come in handy.

The Xianbei people finally finished adjusting, shouting the slogan of "Xianbei will win", and a group of Xianbei iron cavalry rushed to the phalanx of the Han army, with the tragedy of "the strong man is gone and will not return". He Lian also urged the war horse and joined the last row of attack with his own personal guards.

"Steady!"

"Don't be afraid if you die, Master Lu Bu will support us in the family!"

"Death can't let the Xianbei earth dog rush over, think about your wife and children, parents and sisters!"

Officers at all levels encouraged their men in their own way. After such a long time of fighting, life and death have really been put aside, especially Lu Bu's military merit rewards and generous pension system are there, and there are no worries, so he can naturally go all out.

Finally, I am afraid that in today's world, the cavalry with the strongest combat effectiveness and the infantry with the strongest combat effectiveness collide again.

The Xianbei people are desperately rushing forward, trying to squeeze out a way to live, and the Han army is sworn to defend this last line of defense, both sides are the same not afraid of death, the same desperate, the Xianbei cavalry has also shot their feather arrows, all are hand-to-hand combat, and the Han soldiers are stubbornly maintaining the formation.

Jia Xu sent the last fresh force, Zhang He's 5,000 Hejian elite cavalry, rushed out from the right flank, straight to the back of the Xianbei army, and Lian also divided 5,000 cavalry from the rear team to stop the Han cavalry, after all, the front is limited, and it is impossible to invest all the troops.

It was just that in addition to the melee between cavalry and infantry, a regiment of cavalry and cavalry was added.

Both sides have exerted all their strength, and they are still very stale, but the Xianbei people are still beginning to have an advantage little by little, after all, in addition to the two infantry brigades in the Han army, most of the rest of the state reinforcements are county soldiers, and their combat skills, personal physical strength, and physical fitness are far inferior to the Xianbei elites.

The previous resistance was only supported by reasonable formation, advanced equipment, and excellent tactical command, coupled with full of enthusiasm, but the physical strength finally had its limit, and more and more county soldiers fell, but they were not ashamed, because none of them escaped.

Seeing that the Han army's defense line began to loosen, Jia Xu was hesitating whether to let Zhang Liao lead the heavily armored knights who broke the army and rode wolf to fight to the death, and as for what to do in the future, he couldn't care about it.

He Lian also saw the loosening of the Han army, and the opportunity to escape strongly stimulated him, and he also put his own personal guards into the attack, his personal guards are equivalent to a simplified version of the heavy armored cavalry, and the combat effectiveness is still very strong, and the Han troops in front of them have fallen, and they are about to break through the defense line of the Han army.

Suddenly, the rumbling war drums sounded in the rear of the Han army, and a large group of Han infantry and some people in civilian costumes rushed up.

Jia Xu looked at these reinforcements in surprise, it turned out to be the 5,000 Sili infantry led by Sima Fang, and the 3,000 Sili infantry led by Guo Xun, and there were thousands of young people.

Sima Fang and Guo Xun were the reinforcements that Jia Xu sent to invite when the Xianbei people arrived, and finally arrived in time at the critical moment, and those people were the people who had been fighting with the Han army these days and helping to assist.

The defense line of the Han army was stable, and the Xianbei people fell into despair, and the Han army in front suddenly increased by tens of thousands of people, and they couldn't rush through anyway.

He Lian looked helplessly at the rear, after a night of burning, the wall of fire and the heat behind him seemed to be gradually decreasing, and he couldn't wait any longer, maybe Lu Bu was on his way to surround him.

Those bastards from other tribes have been slow to appear, it seems that they have all betrayed themselves, and the Han people have an old saying, "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood", as long as you live, you have a chance to make a comeback.

Thinking of this, Helian did not dare to delay and ordered the withdrawal of the army, and the Xianbei army finally sounded the sad horn of withdrawal, and the surviving royal court guards turned their horses' heads one after another and withdrew in the direction they came.

Helian, who had been in the rear, was at the forefront of the retreat, and he desperately escaped the trench, passed through the abandoned chariot array, and came to the place where the camp had been.

After here, it is the wall that has been burned out, and there is no obstruction, the Han army is all infantry, and it is impossible to catch up with him.

But when the war horse under the crotch arrived here, it hesitated, it turned out that the ground here was fiery red, and the temperature was frightening, and the horse did not dare to take a step.

At this time, more Xianbei cavalry arrived here, and they also stopped, and the shouts of the Han army were faintly heard behind them.

He Lian looked up at the sky, could it be that Changshengtian had abandoned himself?

When He Lian was desperately trying to push the war horse to the ground and fill in a path, he suddenly felt a cold nose, and a drop of water fell from the sky.

When it rained, it rained lightly in the sky, and it became heavier and heavier, and the hot ground met the rain, producing a lot of steam, as if it were fogging, and the temperature of the ground was also dropping rapidly.

The road of the heavens is endless, and Lian shouted excitedly: "Thank you for the immortal heaven, the immortal heaven blesses!" While driving the war horse down the hillside, there were still 20,000 royal court guards left to follow closely.

Jia Xu and Fu Zhu and others also reluctantly drenched themselves in the rain, and they couldn't care about using umbrellas to avoid the rain.

"This is really providential, I hope General Lu Bu can block them, General Gao Shun, order the whole army to attack, pursue the enemy, Lord Sima Fang, Lord Guo Xun also ask you to stay in the camp, Zhang Liao, you lead the chariot battalion, and the wolf cavalry of the broken army also stays in the camp. Let's catch up and take a look. ”
