Chapter 448: Fierce Battle

In the middle of the military formation, Gao Shun looked at the Hun cavalry who rushed into the vicinity, his face remained unchanged, he remembered Zhang Liao's words, as long as the crossbowmen released more than three waves of crossbow arrows, the impact of the enemy's cavalry was not enough, because their fallen corpses had become the best obstacles, enough to slow down the speed of the cavalry.

Isn't this the case now, the Hun cavalry is still in the dark, but the speed of their charge has no impact on the army formation, and the next thing is the handover.

And in the handover of short soldiers, the most powerful is the repeater.

The repeater is different from other crossbows and bows and arrows, its arrows are made of iron, have no arrow feathers, and the range is not far, but the repeater sacrifices range, and the most powerful thing is the burst speed.

The repeater is not able to shoot ten arrows at one time, but ten crossbow arrows have already been loaded in the crossbow box, and each time the trigger is pulled, an arrow is issued, and then an arrow is ordered to enter the groove under the action of gravity, and the trigger is pulled again, and then released, so that the arrows are fired one after another without stopping.

At close range, the lethality of the seven hundred crossbows was extremely terrifying, the war horses neighed and wailed, and the Huns fell or were injured one by one.

However, the Hun soldiers have always been fierce, and many people rushed over with a roar regardless of the arrows on their bodies, wanting to break their shields, and in response to them was another order from Gao Shun: "Attack with swords and axes!" ”

A thousand axemen rushed out from behind the shield and slaughtered the approaching Hun cavalry.

And the shield still tightly protected the arrows of the crossbowmen and archers.

The Hun cavalry on both flanks were shocked to see the heavy losses of the army in the middle, and they shouted that they would attack the flanks of the large array and outflank the rear.

But they were greeted by traps on both sides of the Great Array!

Zhang Liao likes to use the trap pit the most, how can he not use it now? The rejection of horses on both sides of the army formation was used to confuse the Hun cavalry, so that they did not think of trapping in the horse pit at all, losing hundreds of horses, and not daring to rush forward.

In desperation, the Hun three-way cavalry merged into one road and pressed up from the front.

In the handover of short troops, the crossbow carts are useless in the military formation, but the shield array, sword and axe hands, archers, crossbowmen, and crossbowmen are still there.

In this battle, Zhang Liao arranged more than 3,000 crossbowmen in the military array, and its lethality was extremely amazing, causing nearly thirty percent of the casualties to the Hun cavalry.

However, when the Hun cavalry was neutral, they rushed out of several elite armies and chiseled through the military formation!

The leaders of the Huns are often the strongest in the army, Hu Yu is still in command of the Chinese army, and these three thousand horsemen with their thousands of commanders, hundreds of chiefs and the most elite cavalry, rushed to kill, wanting to tear apart the military formation.

Their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated, Wentu attacked the shield array, they used their own corpses and war horses to cover, rushed to the front, the sword and shield soldiers in front of them fell into a bitter battle, and the elite troops of the Huns pounced on the crossbows and archers.

Seeing this, Gao Shun immediately ordered 3,000 traps to attack.

The soldiers in the camp had no shields, only spears, they were all well-armed, wearing heavy armor and heavy helmets, not afraid of arrows, forming a single body, charging in the back of the Hun cavalry!

The foiled deer who rushed forward bravely was stopped by the trapped camp, and it was difficult to advance an inch, and the trapped camp was like an iron-armored hedgehog, causing them to retreat again and again.

The ferocity of the broken deer is useless in front of the trapped camp, in history, the seven hundred trapped camps have defeated Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, not to mention that there are three thousand now, not to mention that the broken deer is far inferior to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

The trapped camp is one, not something that can be resisted by individual bravery, and the deer charged fiercely several times, but was injured and snatched back by the guards.

Annoyed and angry, the deer shouted and fired his arrows, but the Huns' arrows shot into the trapped camp, and even if some soldiers died, they could not disturb their formation in the slightest.

The fierce battle was in full swing, and the trapped camp was like a thorny punch, smashing into the Hun cavalry, crushing the elite of the Huns, and then rushing towards the Chinese army.

The north of the city of Mayi has become a bloody meat grinding field, and the people in the city are all panicked when they hear the sound of the earth-shaking battle outside.

Under the city gate, Zhang Fan, Su Wu and others were waiting, and when they heard the sounds of fighting and screams outside the city, they were also very uneasy, but Tang Wan, Cai Yan and Yin stayed at home to take care of Zhang's mother.

Before the war, Zhang Liao had asked them to go back to Hedong, but they refused, worried about Zhang Liao, and thought that the place where Zhang Liao was was the safest place.

Outside the city, Zhang Liao looked at the battlefield with a calm face, beside him, Guo Jia, Xu Shu, Shi Tao, Fa Zheng, and Sima Yi were all in the army, Zhang Liao brought them over, it was to let them feel the real battlefield, only by experiencing this, can they grow up as soon as possible.

And Xu Shu and the others did not disappoint him, all of them looked calm, showing extraordinary heart and courage.

On the contrary, the leaders of the Hu people under the head were all shocked, they were not only afraid of the bravery and ferocity of the Huns, but also shocked by the strength of the soldiers and horses of the Bingzhou, and the battle lasted only an hour, and the cavalry of Hutu lost nearly half!

Many people were shocked by the terrible crossbows, but those with combat experience were shocked by the speed of the crossbow arrows in Zhang Liao's army, and before the battle, there were almost wave after wave without stopping at all, that was not at all three thousand archers could be sent in a short period of time, there was only one possibility, that is, those crossbows were very special.

The battle lasted for more than an hour, and the Huns' cavalry had long been unable to impact, and could have outflanked and galloped from both wings, but the ubiquitous trap made them desperate, otherwise the cavalry rushed into the trap pit, and without Zhang Liao fighting, they would be finished by themselves, and it was not easy to make a detour to attack Mayi City.

So they can only grit their teeth and fight with Gao Shun, losing the advantage of cavalry running, there is no matching formation, even though they are numerous and fierce, but for a time they do not have the upper hand at all, crossbowmen and shield arrays, like meat grinders, advancing step by step, devouring the Xiongnu's soldiers and horses.

Gao Shun's trapped camp was even more courageous, and almost rushed into the enemy's army several times, causing Huyu's Shuai Qi to retreat again and again, until Su Li and Wentu came back to help, which made him breathe.

In the formation of the Huns, Hu Yu looked at the Huns who were not dead, and wanted to make them retreat, but they were tightly bitten at this time, and they could not escape at all, unless the rear army retreated and abandoned the front army, but in that case, their 20,000 soldiers and horses were afraid that they would not be able to return even 5,000, and he was unwilling.

Retreating some distance again, Hu Yu, who was sitting in the middle army, saw the banner of the Bingzhou Mu sitting in the rear of the town in an instant, as well as the tables and chairs, the banquet, and the leader of the Hu people, and he immediately understood that those people were the Hu tribe that responded to the order of the state pastor, and the Zhou pastor.

He was furious, and immediately ordered Su Li, the commander of the ten thousand cavalry who had just come to help: "Su Li, lead two hundred elites, sneak through, attack the rear and the state pastor and those traitors!" ”

Su Li, who was covered in blood, looked at the rear and the state pastor's banner, showed a cold smile, gave an order, threw away his helmet and robe, pretended to be an ordinary soldier, and immediately scattered with two hundred elite guards, mixed in the army, and stole to the rear.

Whether it is Hu Yu or Su Li, they dare not send more people to sneak attack, two hundred cavalry is not more than no less, if the scale is large, the movement is large, but it will cause the enemy's suspicion and blockage, after all, the rear is the foundation of the state pastor, and the defense will not be relaxed.

Now, in the midst of this chaotic battle, the 200 of them are scattered and interspersed with the past, but they are extremely hidden.
