Chapter 125: The Beginning of the Decisive Battle

The scorching sun rose into the air, twenty miles southwest of Lingzhi, and the Han army that had just marched to Lingzhi was set up here, but the time was still short, and the camp was not perfect.

"Woo! Woo! Woo......"

"Xianbei people are coming......"

The loud horn sound resounded through the barracks, and then the mournful shouts of the Han military captain pierced the sky, only to see the servants and miscellaneous servants in a mess, but the well-trained Han army elite soldiers had already assembled in armor, and drove out of the camp in an orderly manner, arrayed in the open space outside the camp, but felt that the array was full of forests and killing opportunities.

Soon, the earth shook, there was a horse hooves in the distance, 20,000 Xianbei cavalry under the leadership of Tan Shihuai, reined in the horses, and saw the Han army several miles away waiting in formation, they were all dressed in bright armor, the military formation was strictly disciplined, and a soaring murderous aura came to the face.

Han and Xianbei, farming people and nomads, nearly a hundred years of feuds, once again began a field duel......

The three tribes of the Xianbei army to the east, the middle and the west were divided into the left, the center and the right. Tanshi Huai bowed his head lightly, nodded at the commander of the Xianbei tribe in the central part of the country, and went to attack.

After a while, I saw Tan Shi Huai signal to the left and right, and then I saw a strong and fierce Hu man behind him dismount and go out on foot, he reached out and touched his tongue, unloaded the iron tire bow on his back, and drew a thumb-thick wolf tooth arrow from the quiver and put it on the string, and in a trembling crunch, the two stone strong bows in his hand had been filled.

After the Hu man's fingers were easily opened, after a trilling sound that could shatter the eardrums, a continuous and terrible scream sounded, and the arrows shot far away in the direction of the Han army, and finally landed in front of the Han army.

"Kill!"

"Kill ......"

Que Ju shouted, and more than 10,000 cavalry of the Chinese army followed closely behind, howling and charging with horses, marching towards the Han army.

The Xianbei Left Army, Micah had a hideous face, and when he saw the arrows of the Chinese army shooting, a vengeful anger arose, and he glanced at the other eastern tribesmen, and then shouted: "The arrows of Lord Tanshi Huai have been issued, the warriors of Da Xianbei, kill with me!" ”

"Kill ......"

The three thousand Xianbei cavalry behind him responded violently, with an indomitable momentum, howling one after another, and riding forward.

The same scene also happened in the Xianbei Right Army, where the western Xianbei Lord Rilu deduction and several other tribesmen also rushed away with 3,000 cavalry. Several western tribesmen were the only ones missing, who was not well due to injuries and illnesses, and was kept in the camp by Tanshi Huai, with more than 1,000 old and weak wounded soldiers, staying in the camp.

The Han army in the army, a vigorous banner hunting and hunting in the wind, embroidered with a majestic "Han" character. Under the banner of Hunting and Hunting, Zhao Bao, the Taishou of Liaoxi, stood solemnly in the wind, and looked at the 20,000 Xianbei riders on the opposite side. He has fought with the Xianbei people many times, how can he not know what his intentions are, but he wants to use more than 10,000 iron cavalry of the Chinese army to chisel through his own military formation, plus the scattering of the left and right wings, interspersed with assaults, it seems that he wants to fight quickly.

Zhao Bao's expression was indifferent, he glanced at the Xianbei Zhongjun and found it, and then said in a deep voice: "Order, crossbowmen, Zhang crossbow, shoot Hu Qi!" Shieldmen, spearmen, march forward! Archers, draw bows, enemy troops, 10,000 arrows at once! After a pause, he said, "Order the cavalry to wait for the opportunity to guard the left and right wings." ”

"Brush! Brush! Brush ......"

The drums were beating, the horns were excited, and the heralds waved the command flag in their hands fiercely, and they kept in touch with the rest of the Han army.

"Crossbowmen, Zhang crossbows!"

A loud horn sounded, the crossbow captain of the Han army drew the sword in his hand, and shouted hissed, and three thousand elite crossbowmen armed with strong crossbows took a deep breath, and then raised their crossbows. I saw them sit flat on the ground, lay the crossbow flat in front of them, put the left and right soles of their feet into their thumbs, and then split the crossbow, pried up the waist hook, and hooked the crossbow string. Then pull the waist hook with both hands, kick the soles of the feet forward, and the splitting body falls backwards, and with the same force, the crossbow string opens and hangs it on the machine.

As long as the general gives an order, these battle-hardened and indifferent killers will not hesitate to pull the crossbow machine, show their sharpest fangs, and mercilessly slaughter all the enemies in front of them.

"Shield soldiers, stand in front of the formation."

Almost at the same time as the strong crossbow is the shield troops, under the order of the Han army shield captain, and then a horn sounded, only to hear a few neat footsteps in the military formation, then saw two thousand heavy armored foot soldiers under the guidance of the general out of the military formation, in front of the formation left and right standing position.

"Click......

Two thousand heavy armored foot soldiers looked coldly at the Xianbei cavalry rushing in front of them, and inserted the big shield in their hands heavily on the ground, making a loud noise, and in an instant, three solid walls were already lying in front of the Han army's formation, if the Xianbei iron cavalry wanted to chisel through the Han army's formation, then they must rush over from here and destroy the shield wall in front of the formation.

"Spearmen, array!"

With another trumpet, countless elite spearmen of the Han army, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly ran forward and lined up behind the shield wall of the heavily armored foot soldiers. They were resolute, accustomed to the cruelty of the battlefield, and knew the danger of holding spears in front of the battle, but they still ignored them.

"Raise your spear!"

The spearmen of the Han army raised the sharp arrow in his right hand and shouted loudly, and the spearmen in a neat line raised their spears in their hands one after another, and the spearmen in the front row advanced through the gap in the shield wall composed of shield soldiers, and advanced a sharp horse-rejecting spear to the outside of the shield wall.

Suddenly, in front of the entire Han army, it was like a steel needle covered with thorns, with a hideous and terrifying cold color, and the tip of the spear with cold light was like death, waiting for the Xianbei cavalry to attack. Undoubtedly, if the Xianbei people want to cut through the Han army's military formation, it is impossible not to pay a huge price.

"Archer, draw the bow!"

Immediately followed by the three thousand archers in the rear formation, under the order of the Han army archer captain, with the loud horn, quickly and indifferently and skillfully pulled the bow and arrows, according to the experience of countless kills and pokes, adjusted the angle of the bow and arrow in the hand to the best angle, and then in a piercing crunch, the longbow has been drawn into a round of full moon, and a sharp feather arrow has been ready to fire......

"Liutao, Hutao, Military" has a saying, "10,000 soldiers, 6,000 strong crossbows, 1,000 halberd shields, 2,000 contradictions, repair and attack tools, sharpen weapons and skillful hands 300 people, this move is a large number of soldiers and military also", the Han army sent 10,000 people to fight, although the people in the border counties are not good at halberds, but the contradiction of 4,000 is not a big problem, plus 6,000 bows and crossbows, in this frontal military battle outside the fortress, the greatest power of the military array can be brought into play.

Even if the opposite side is a surging nearly 20,000 Xianbei cavalry, since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu, the Han army has never been afraid of anyone in a head-on decisive battle with foreign races.

This is the strong Han, the dynasty that the Han people in later generations are proud of, and they call themselves Han people with the name of "Han", which has never changed for thousands of years. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
