Chapter 388: Crazy Attack Tactics
Lao Hei and Mengzi and the rest of the army were ambushed on this small high ground, and Yu Fuluo ordered the army to advance rapidly, which was originally very effective, because the Han army's javelins could not kill a few щ{][lā}
But the guard battalion had been prepared for a long time, and when the Hun army arrived, suddenly several soldiers pushed the prepared stones down, and the stones fell like rain.
The road was blocked at once, and several hapless Hun cavalry were stoned to death.
"Release, quick, throw all the javelins as you can." A squad leader shouted.
Dozens of escort battalions got excited, picked up the javelins around them and threw them down, because the road was suddenly blocked, the Huns below were crowded together and it was difficult to dodge, and they were shot one after another.
"Quick, the archers counterattacked, send a team of soldiers to kill, there are not many of them." This small plateau was too small, and the generals of the Huns knew that there must not be many people above, so they shouted.
And the escort battalion above also knew the current situation, and everyone held up their breath and kept throwing the prepared javelins.
The archers of the Huns began to attack, but across a small hill, although they could shoot, they could not estimate the enemy's position and distance, etc., and there was a hill to block it, the effect was not good, and the enemy's javelins still flew down one by one.
All of a sudden, the Huns lost more than a dozen horses and a few Hun soldiers, and people might be able to dodge, but the horses were large and the space was small, so they couldn't dodge at all.
Lao Hei and Mengzi each prepared six javelins, and they both threw them out with great effort, threw them high, and then fell freely and killed the enemy.
There was chaos under the mountain, although the enemy's screams were sparse, but the roar of the horses was terrifying, a javelin was enough to penetrate a war horse, but it could not die for a while, extremely miserable.
Yu Fuluo had a black face, thinking that he could avoid it by letting the army ignore the attack and keep advancing quickly, but he didn't expect the hateful Han army to be so cunning and often make obstacles and wait for them.
"Withdraw."
The captain of the escort battalion shouted, and the soldiers quickly retreated, took their horses, and left quickly, they didn't even see the results of the battle, but they also knew that this harvest was good, and the screams that kept coming from the bottom of the mountain could be heard.
Lao Hei and Mengzi didn't care about the results of the battle this time, because the time and place did not allow them to check the results, and soon after they stepped on the war horses, the enemy chased after them.
The escort battalions immediately dispersed in a team of five people and drilled into the dense forest, so that the enemy lost his direction, and the Huns were helpless, the terrain was not familiar, and there was really no place to chase, so they could only go back separately.
The day passed slowly, very slowly for Uvro and his men, and the day was spent in constant attacks.
Several times Yuvro sent large armies to encircle and suppress them, but each time there was no success, and at most, a team of five people was outflanked by them, but they also paid the price of several men to subdue them.
This is related to Ye Chen's strategy, strictly ordering the soldiers of the escort battalion to leave with one blow, no matter what the enemy is, they can't stay, under normal circumstances, the soldiers of the escort battalion are all throwing three javelins, and they have already evacuated after the enemy has just reacted.
Unless the enemy is unable to counterattack quickly due to individual terrain, the escort battalion will attack for a while longer.
Yuvro was not even angry now, he had already sent 3,000 men to open the way for the front army, so that their army could advance quickly, but the enemy was more cunning, let the front army go, and waited for the front army to go away before they threw down the obstacles.
The role of the front army can indeed prevent the army from being ambushed, but it is only the ambush of the enemy's army, for a few people, a dozen people, or dozens of people, the effect is not great, even if it is found, it is difficult to catch up, the other party can abandon the horse, burrow into the dense forest, or take a small road.
The Huns have been frightened by the grass and trees, they don't care about chasing away, there are stones, dense forests, and highlands next to them are the objects of their fear, no matter whether there is an ambush above, they will be afraid in their hearts.
At the end of the day, the Huns breathed a sigh of relief, they only marched more than 100 miles this day, and the casualties were not large, only less than 500 casualties, and the casualties of the horses would be more, but only more than 800.
However, although the casualties were few, they were exhausted one by one, more tired than fighting a day's battle, and they did not have a moment of rest along the way, and their spirits were completely highly concentrated.
The front and rear armies did not play any role at all, the Han army attacked their front army, the middle army and the rear army in the same place, after the front army attacked, the guards of the battalion ran away, but as soon as they found that the enemy was not chasing, they returned.
Even if the Xiongnu drove the Han army away, the Han army would indeed not come back, but after the Han army behind caught up, they found that it was a good place, and a new group of people ambushed it.
The Xiongnu were helpless, and they could not send troops to guard these places, otherwise almost the entire road would have to be guarded, and no matter how many men and horses they had, they would not be enough.
Yu Furo sighed by himself in the tent, he was really aggrieved, and now he didn't even have the strength to be angry.
Unlike Yu Fuluo, Ye Chen is full of energy, although he also participated in a day's attack, but he is not tired, the escort battalion has undergone high-intensity training, fighting this kind of battle, the danger is not great, and he can still take time to rest, more than a hundred miles a day, throwing dozens of javelins.
"Tonight go to the camp of the Huns to make a round of attacks, the attack is not to kill and injure them, just throw a javelin outside the camp, tell them that we will come to attack at any time, so that they can sleep comfortably at night, exhaust them, and trap them."
At this time, attacking the camp may achieve good results, but it is not the best time, the best time is to make the Huns more tired, make them tired for a few more days, let them be sleepy on horses, and make them in a trance.
The Huns, who were tired of the day, fell asleep tiredly, but many people did not sleep well, and the shadow of the enemy's attack kept flashing in their minds.
"Ready, put."
Hundreds of soldiers of the escort battalion touched the side of the Hun camp, and there were not many people dispatched this time, anyway, it was just an attack, not really to attack the camp.
"It's not good, it's a javelin, it's a javelin."
"Run, the enemy is coming."
"Ah, it's a javelin."
"This sound of breaking the air is terrifying."
"Woo~"
There was chaos in the camp of the Huns, and when they heard that many people in the camp of the Han army were subconsciously not counterattacking, but wanting to run and hide.
Of course, not all the Huns had such poor endurance, and most of the Hun soldiers were still normal at this time, and they immediately organized their armies and formed formations to prepare to meet the enemy.
But slowly the camp fell silent, and there were just cries, shouts, and runs, but after a quarter of an hour these sounds slowly faded away, because the enemy did not attack at all.
The enemy did not attack, did not attack, but the Huns were frightened, and some of them cried.
Yes, there was no attack, but, you say, can the Huns sleep well tonight?
