Chapter 1555: The Best Time
Therefore, after Zhang Xiu led his troops to break through, the two armies that had sprung up on both wings of Zahu were like open arms, ready to surround Zhang Xiu's army like Zang Ba before. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhang Xiu sneered, immediately deflected the horse's head slightly and rushed towards the left, and then did not wait for the cavalry on the left flank of Zahu to extend out and hit it head-on with the momentum of a comet hitting the earth, cavalry to cavalry!
At a distance of one hundred paces, Zahu instinctively showed his ability to ride and shoot, and the Xiliang Iron Rider also took out a single-arrow crossbow hanging on horseback, and this configuration of the Xiliang Iron Rider has never changed.
Relying on its own strong defense to offset most of the arrows, and pulling the trigger at the moment when he felt that the distance was about the same, the powerful power of the single-arrow crossbow was enough to shoot through most armor, and the leather armor of the miscellaneous beard had no defensive effect at all for this powerful crossbow machine.
When the miscellaneous hues were shot down like wheat harvested, the soldiers of the iron cavalry hung the crossbow machine on the back of their horses again, and then held their guns in both hands, and rushed towards the enemy without fear, they knew very well that at this moment their momentum had crushed the other party!
Without the foot of purple light that stretched out, the length of the spears on both sides was almost the same, but at the moment of charging in the opposite direction and colliding, the superiority of the two sides was revealed.
At the moment when the horses were staggered, both Zahu and Tieqi had fallen from their horses, but the difference was that the number of Xiliang Tiecai falling off their horses was far less than that of Zahu, and the hedging of this kind of cavalry was only a few tens of seconds, and Xiliang Tiecai was only left with the remnants of cavalry extending out with their backs to the left wing of the opponent.
Le Ma turned his head, Zhang Xiu's intercostal armor had already appeared a scratch, and the soldiers behind him were also gasping, and more than a thousand people had fallen in the middle of the two sides in just a few tens of seconds, but this was nothing, Zhang Xiu had already jumped out of the encirclement, and Zahu had no possibility of encircling it again.
Similarly, Zang Ba and others were all dragged out by Zhang Xiu, although Zhang Xiu knew that these people were Liu Bei's people, but on the one hand, Zhang Xiu still remembered his uncle's confession before his death, and on the other hand, he did feel that there was no need to harm his own people in the national war.
So when he could be rescued, Zhang Xiu fished out all of them, and didn't leave a single hair for Zahu at all.
"You withdraw first, and I'll leave it here." Zhang Xiu turned his head sideways and said to Zang Ba and the others.
"No, we'll stay and help you, Zahu is getting stronger and stronger, and they have almost entered a period of transformation." Xu Shu shook his head and said, "And our reinforcements will come soon." ”
"Although you still have more than 2,000 people, but everyone is injured, they can't last long, and to be honest, there are so many miscellaneous beards, except for the battle in the Northland, I really haven't seen it." Zhang Xiu said helplessly.
In fact, what Zhang Xiu wants to say most is that Zahu is a little wrong now, if it is according to what he saw in Jincheng at the beginning, the two sides may not be able to deal with this Zahu who is only fifty or sixty thousand, after all, Zahu who is not strong-willed, if he is hit hard in an instant, it will collapse completely, but this time is very different.
"At the beginning, there were only more than 30,000, but now there are almost more than 50,000, you must know that there are almost 130,000 or 40,000 people behind us, although the infantry accounts for a lot, but they are also rushing here." Xu Shu said with a wry smile, "Our role is actually bait. ”
"Xun Junshi also told me, so I have two reinforcements behind me, plus your reinforcements all the way, to say the least, there is also a fifteen thousand, even if Zahu is different now......" Zhang Xiu couldn't go on, fifteen thousand dozen fifteen thousand was really a joke.
Although it is true that the elite of the Han army has a dozen ten, but that is more than a few thousand and tens of thousands, it is a rout of the miscellaneous hu, this kind of record, whether it is a white horse or an iron horse, has been beaten, but 15,000 to 150,000, that is really not a difficulty.
"No matter, let's fight first!" Zhang Xiu's eyes were slightly solemn after seeing that the Zahu soldiers were organized again, and it was obvious that the fools understood the difference between this Zahu and the previous parallel goods.
The biggest gap between Zahu and the Han army in this era is not in quality, but in mentality and organization, it can be said that the biggest impact of the appearance of the Northern Xiongnu in this era on Zahu is not to unify the northern Zahu, but to make Zahu have the qualification to covet the throne.
This is also an important reason why all the people of insight in the world want to teach the Northern Xiongnu and Zahu to be people, because the practice of the Northern Xiongnu has shaken the foundation of the Han Empire, 400,000 goats are just meat dishes, but 400,000 wild wolves are really a real threat.
Therefore, it is very necessary to completely beat them into vegetative people before Zahu awakens, although Zahu said that because of the fear of the Han Empire, the two sides have not had a large-scale war for many years, to say that this is a good thing, but everything is divided into two sides, there are advantages and disadvantages.
The two sides have not had a large-scale war for many years, resulting in the continuous growth of the population, and the Han Empire did not carry out Sinicization education for these seemingly subservient Zahu, which led to the Zahu Although they were submitted, the population was rising.
That's how millions of Qiang people came, millions of Xianbei also came like this, and about a million Karasuma was also raised because there was no large-scale war, if he washed the prairie in blood like Emperor Wu at the beginning, even if he wanted to rebel, he could pull out 100,000 soldiers and horses!
Under the current huge population base, even if Zahu Qing has suffered huge losses in the previous battle to the south, but the Xiongnu forcibly extracted the population to form an army regardless of the future, to be honest, hundreds of thousands are really not much.
Just like the Han family, if you don't care about life and death in the future, with the current population of more than 40 million, in fact, young and middle-aged people can pull out more than 7 million, and all of them can be called tens of millions of troops without even using fraudulent names, but if you do this, you will be wiped out after doing so.
The Northern Xiongnu naturally don't need to be polite to other Hu people, they are pulling cannon fodder, in addition to their own headquarters need to be cherished, for Huyanchu, there is no problem with how many Hu Hu die, as for what you say, what do you want in the future?
It can be said that after this battle, if the Han family in the north does not care about fending for themselves, it is impossible to breathe a sigh of relief without fifty years, and the young and middle-aged people will be left with women and children, as for the old, in fact, the Hu people do not respect the old ones, they are all directly thrown in the ice field to fend for themselves.
This is also an important reason why the top wise men of Cao Cao and Liu Bei strongly support this battle, and it is very clear to them that this is the best chance to solve the Hu people.
Wipe out all the young and strong people on the battlefield, and then move all the women and children in the north into the Central Plains, as for the young people who are on the battlefield, whether they are destroyed on the battlefield or captured as prisoners, it can be said that the biggest problem has been solved.
