Chapter 61: The Cavalry Charges

The sound of "booming" horses' hooves sounded, and the men and horses on both sides charged again.

"Dispersed ......"

Having learned the lesson of being shot last time, LΓΌ Bu immediately ordered his soldiers to disperse as he charged.

Once the personnel were separated, the cavalry did not have much accuracy in their bows and arrows on their horses, and the lethality caused was not as bad as before.

Sure enough, this time, because the number of Xianbei people was too small, and they were still in the charge, the bow and arrow lost its accuracy, and a round of bows and arrows was shot down, but it only caused a loss of three or three.

As soon as the men and horses on both sides came into contact, the sounds of fighting, screams, and the neighing of war horses suddenly resounded throughout the battlefield.

With the advantage of eight to one, the Han soldiers launched a merciless massacre against the Xianbei people. The few hundred remaining Xianbei people fell from their horses and died with just one charge.

And under the counterattack of the Xianbei people, the Han army also paid more than 200 lives!

Lu Bu looked at the corpses all over the ground and the tired soldiers behind him, with the current situation of the tired soldiers, it was impossible to pursue Budugen.

Turning over and dismounting, Lu Bu glanced at the Han women all over the mountains, and ordered the soldiers under his command: "Gather everyone together and clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, if Zhao Yun and the others catch up after a while, they will share some of their spoils......"

Just as Lu Bu was cleaning up the battlefield, Zhao Yun arrived at the battlefield with more than 4,000 light cavalry.

All white horses and white robes, each soldier is equipped with a spear, a knife, and a repeater. Not to mention combat effectiveness, just appearance, even Lu Bu was envious for a while.

Subsequently, Pang De, Zhang Liao and others arrived one after another, looking at the battlefield full of corpses and being silent for a long time.

Mu Yi rode on a jujube red war horse and came to Lu Bu with more than three hundred personal guards and asked about the whereabouts of the Xianbei people.

"General Lu, I don't know where the rest of the Xianbei people are now?"

Lu Bu pointed to the north and said, "The Xianbei people in the brigade have fled to the north, leaving two thousand cavalry here to break off!" If it weren't for the fight, it is estimated that a certain person would have caught up with Budugen by now! ”

Mu Yi nodded: "Well, General Lu let the brothers rest first, and General Ben led people to chase after him first, which harmed the people of the Han Dynasty, how could they leave so easily." ”

The 20,000 cavalry pursued directly to the north without stopping.

Budugen fled more than 30 miles with the army, and a scout hurriedly came to report: "Report ......"

"Report to the leader, the Han army has caught up! It's only five miles away! ”

Hearing this, Bu Dugen reined in his war horse and frowned: "Why is the speed of the Han army so fast? How many people are coming? ”

The scout didn't even want to answer: "About 20,000, all cavalry!" ”

A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Bu Dugen's mouth: "Just 20,000 people dare to pursue 40,000 Xianbei cavalry, I really don't know how to write dead words!" Tell the three armies to prepare for battle! ”

Mu Yi led the army in hot pursuit, and finally caught up with Budugen in an open wilderness.

However, at this time, Budugen has already lined up in formation, and it is possible to start a fight at any time.

The two sides confronted each other at a distance of two hundred paces, and Budugen urged his horse forward and shouted in front of the two armies.

"Which general is the Great Han ahead? A certain has already evacuated with troops, why bother chasing after him? The general might as well return with his troops, and he is willing to offer half of the wealth he brought with the army! "Bu Dugen really doesn't want to go to war with the Han army. If this battle is really fought, his men will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and even if they return to the grassland, they will only be annexed by other tribes.

Mu Yi also urged the horse forward, and the five-hook god flying silver spear in his hand pointed at Budugen and said: "What a shameless barbarian, bribing this general with the wealth of the big man, can you still be a little shameless?" When you were brutalizing the Han people in Yanmen, did you ever think that they were innocent? What mistakes did those old people and children make? These animals, which even the elderly and children have killed, are not worthy of living in the world at all, and even if they are blood-stained horse leather shrouds today, they must let these animals pay for their blood debts! ”

After speaking, Mu Yi directly hit his horse and returned to his own formation, and immediately asked the herald to convey one order after another.

The herald waved a large flag in his hand, and after seeing the order given by Mu Yi, all the generals who led the troops took action.

Zhang Liao Gaoshun led 10,000 soldiers to guard the Chinese army, with the shield hand in front and the pikeman behind, and the spears stretched out from the gaps in the shields and laid down a phalanx. Zhao Yun led 5,000 light cavalry to guard both sides, and Pang De's 5,000 heavy cavalry lined up at the front.

Budugen can be seen clearly, these Han soldiers have been chasing all the way, and it is clear that they have no intention of letting themselves go.

As a result, Bu Dugen could only give an order to send a cavalry of 10,000 people to charge, preparing to break through the formation of the Han army first.

Originally, the Xianbei people thought that it would be the thousands of cavalry at the front who would fight them head-on.

But who would have thought that when the distance between the two sides was about to be a stone's throw away, Pang De's 5,000 cavalry was divided into two teams under the command of the Chinese army, forming an encirclement towards the 10,000 Xianbei people.

Immediately afterward, waves of arrows rained out from Mu Yi's Chinese ranks.

The speed of the arrows continued to shoot wave after wave, so that the 10,000 Xianbei cavalry had no chance to return fire at all.

Mu Yi's Chinese army had 5,000 soldiers holding a salvo of repeating crossbows, each of which was loaded with ten arrows, and 5,000 people shot them in one go, that is, 50,000 arrows.

The shooting speed of the Han army stunned 10,000 Xianbei people at the beginning, and before they rushed in front of the opponent, more than 3,000 people were hit by arrows.

Some of the horses fell to the ground, and the horses that rushed up also tripped over, and the tragic scene was like hell on earth.

But at this moment, the five thousand men and horses that Pound had outflanked actually stood up one by one, and each of them stepped on their horses, as if they were now on the flat ground.

Five thousand people armed with repeating crossbows aimed at the Xianbei people and fired wildly. One by one, the Xianbei people could only let out heart-rending screams, and finally fell off their horses one after another and died!

With the roundabout shooting of Pound's two flanks, 5,000 people and 50,000 arrows were shot, and the Xianbei people who rushed forward were less than 3,000.

At this time, the 3,000 people were already frightened, and there was still a fighting spirit there.

Just as they hesitated, the Chinese army waved the flag again and issued an order.

Zhao Yun, who was guarding the two wings of the Chinese army, led the "Flying Tiger Battalion" under his command to rush out. The same flanks were flanked, and the crossbows were constantly firing.

At this moment, the only surviving Xianbei people were shot by Zhao Yun again, and less than 500 people rushed to the front of Mu Yizhong's army.

By this time, Pound had already made a detour and guarded the flanks of the Chinese army, and the soldiers had also finished loading the crossbows with arrows.

As soon as the five hundred Xianbei cavalry rushed to the shield-bearers standing in the front row, they were pierced by spears. Just one charge, 10,000 Xianbei people were wiped out.

And the loss of Mu Yi's side was only that the shield player in the front row was hit by the war horse that rushed to the front line after his death, and less than fifty people actually died.
