Chapter 1569: The Qiang people go to war
Since Pang De led the army to Fuping, the most active on the battlefield is the scouts, Fuping's defeat, so that Dian Ling realized the importance of scouts, the initial Qiang people rebelled in Liangzhou, was extremely cautious, when leading the troops to fight, the scouts in the army were all over the battlefield, how many years have passed, the Qiang people won the victory of one battle after another, so that the Han army and the Han people only fear after seeing them, and arrogance gradually breeds.
The scouts on both sides are elite soldiers, but the army scouts with stirrups and horseshoes are far from being comparable to the scouts of the Qiang people, in the process of scouts fighting, the losses of the Qiang people are not small, after Dian Ling knows this situation, he has deepened his understanding of the Han army, but he regards all this as the credit of the Xianbei people.
The Han people were cunning in the eyes of the Qiang people, and the Xianbei people failed, in their opinion, more because the Han people were good at using stratagem, which was also one of the most feared places in the process of fighting the Qiang people with the Han army.
The one who guards Lingzhou is the first warrior under the command of Dian Ling, Na Yan.
On the city wall, after Na Yan saw the army outside the city, the corners of his mouth showed a sneer, after the Han army arrived outside the city, they didn't even dare to show off their might outside the city, and directly set up camp, which can be seen that the Han army was afraid of them.
"Command the lieutenant generals of the army, follow this general out of the city to kill the Han army." Na Yan commanded.
"Chief, the soldiers of the Han army are extremely brave, and the leader of Dian Ling told me that we should not fight easily." A general persuaded.
Na Yan snorted coldly: "It's just an army of the Han people, what is there to be afraid of, you are the warriors of the Qiang people, are you afraid when you face the Han army?" ”
When the surrounding generals heard this, their anger overflowed.
Pang De obviously did not expect that the Qiang people would dare to fight at such a time, and in the past, all the cities under the command of the King of Jin would close the gates, for fear of heavy losses after going out of the city to engage the enemy army.
"General, the Qiang people in the city have come out." A lieutenant rushed into the tent with an excited look.
Pang De, who was discussing military affairs with Niu Fu and Yang Qiu, was slightly stunned, the Qiang people were fighting at this time, so he didn't react for a while, and immediately thought of the Qiang people's behavior, and his heart was relieved, the Qiang people thought they were the most elite warriors, and they would not be afraid of the enemy's strength, because in their opinion, only the Qiang people were the most powerful existence.
"The last general will fight." Ushisuke hugging fists.
Since learning that he had defected to Lu Bu, Niu Fu had a deep understanding of the system of the army under Lu Bu, and if he wanted to achieve a higher position in the army, he had to rely on military merits, and Li Ru had a high status under Lu Bu's account, which made Niu Fu see hope.
"Okay, General Niu will go to war, and he will naturally be able to defeat the Qiang army." Pang Dedao, Niu Fu's identity, he naturally has an understanding, Niu Fu has been in Liangzhou for many years, and has a lot of understanding of the Qiang people, and Niu Fu was in Beidi County before.
Accompanying Niu Fu in battle was the army of Anding County.
3,000 Han troops, against 2,000 Qiang soldiers.
In the Anding army, there were a thousand cavalry, but only five hundred cavalry came this time, and the general of the cavalry was Yang Qiu.
Looking at the Qiang soldiers who were killed, Niu Fu did not hesitate to give the order to charge, and when dealing with the Qiang people, there was no situation of shouting before the battle.
The 3,000 Han army soon came into contact with the Qiang people.
The soldiers under Niu Fu are naturally the elite of the Anding army, but they have a big gap in combat effectiveness compared to the army brought by Pang De from Chang'an.
When facing the Qiang people, the Han army was faintly at a disadvantage.
Yang Qiu, who was in charge of the plundering array on the side, was surprised when he saw this situation, what kind of combat effectiveness his soldiers had, Yang Qiu naturally knew that these soldiers had received strict training.
"Kill!" Yang Qiu led the cavalry to kill the Qiang army.
Among the Qiang people who fought this time, there were 300 cavalry, and when they saw Yang Qiu killing, the Qiang cavalry came up one after another.
The courage of the Qiang people is reflected on the battlefield, and when fighting, the Qiang people can be described as fearless of death.
Under the constant command of Niu Fu, the Han soldiers gradually became at a disadvantage.
Niu Fu was a little anxious in his heart, originally thought that with the army in his hand, it was enough to defeat the Qiang people, but he didn't expect that they had an advantage in numbers, but when they fought against the Qiang people, they did not have the upper hand, and now, more hope depends on whether the cavalry led by Yang Qiu can break through the cavalry of the Qiang people.
If Yang Qiu can win the battle against the Qiang cavalry, then his own army can win the battle with the help of the cavalry.
This was the first time that the Han army led by Pang De had fought head-on with the Qiang people, which was of great significance, and if it failed, it would have a great impact on the morale of the army.
Na Yan was excited, these Han troops were powerful, although they were beyond his imagination, if they continued according to the situation on the battlefield, they would definitely be the ones who won the victory, and when the time came, Na Yan would be able to lead the warriors after the victory to destroy the Han army's camp.
On the way to Fuping, the cavalry in the army was extremely excited about the existence of stirrups and horseshoes, because they were able to make unimaginable movements on their horses.
After the five hundred Han cavalry came into contact with the Qiang cavalry, they showed strong combat effectiveness, Yang Qiu, who had a spear in hand, was an extremely dazzling existence on the battlefield, Yang Qiu was not weak in martial arts, and the role of stirrups gave him a stronger combat effectiveness.
The leader of the Qiang cavalry fell off his horse with a shot from Yang Qiu, which caused a lot of panic among the Qiang cavalry, and the Han cavalry was demoralized and launched a more fierce attack on the Qiang cavalry.
The role of the stirrup has shown a powerful role on such a battlefield, but anyone who can become a cavalry among the Qiang people must have extraordinary skills among the Qiang people, but they are a little clumsy in the face of the Han cavalry, and often the death of two Qiang cavalry can be exchanged for the fall of a Han cavalry.
On the battlefield, the Qiang cavalry was already at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and after half an hour, the Qiang cavalry had already lost seventy-seven or eighty-eight, while Yang Qiu led two hundred cavalry to attack the Qiang army.
The Qiang army, which originally had an advantage in the battle of infantry and pawns, was changed because of the arrival of the cavalry led by Yang Qiu, and the role that two hundred cavalry could play in such a battlefield could not be ignored.
