Chapter 304: The Great War Resumes Again

Dingxiang, Wujin County.

Zhou Cang was ordered to resist Da Xi Xianbei here. Five hundred light cavalry, five hundred heavy cavalry, stick here day and night, so that the Daxi Xianbei cavalry cannot go south.

Daxi Xianbei's 3,000 cavalry saw that the Han army had few cavalry and tried to attack.

The heavy cavalry was in the center, and the light cavalry was on the flanks, and they fought against the Daxi Division.

The first time the Daxi Department fought against this kind of armor and cavalry, they were hit head-on. Coupled with the guerrilla attacks on both flanks, Daxi Xianbei suffered heavy losses and retreated in embarrassment.

Even the leader of the Daxi tribe died in the rebellion.

With this defeat, Da Xi Xianbei did not expect to rescue Gu Xianbei again.

A thousand Han troops can defeat them with three thousand cavalry, how can they win?

The war horses of the Han army only showed their eyes and four hooves, and they were invulnerable at all!

The retreating Daxi Xianbei cavalry all planned to return to the tribe and lead the tribe to leave Dingxiang, or shield elsewhere, or take refuge in the western Xianbei.

Knowing that it was difficult, they were willing to retreat.

……

Dingxiang, Wucheng.

In the afternoon of the same day, Guan Yu led 6,500 horsemen to appear in the north of Sugu Xianbei.

Su Gufang was frightened, he was originally like an ant on a hot pot, and now there are so many Han cavalry, they still have a way to live?

On the same day, Guan Yu did not give the order to attack Sugu Xianbei.

Rather, it is to let the soldiers set up camps to rest and recuperate.

The horses graze and drink water by the clear water.

Guan Yu personally led a group of cavalry to blatantly bypass the west of the Sugu Xianbei, and after still dropping dozens of heads to the Sugu Xianbei, they joined Xu Huang in the south of the Sugu tribe.

After Guan Yu's cavalry left, Su Gufang sent someone to pick up the dozens of heads.

He didn't dare to imagine it, but he still managed to identify the heads.

He was relieved to see a few faces he didn't know first, and when he saw Hanjie's head, his expression was shocked.

Next, he saw several familiar faces, all of them nobles from the Balin and Subu tribes.

Finally, he fixed his gaze on Balinkang's skull.

What does this mean? It goes without saying.

The reinforcements from Yunzhong County are very likely to be wiped out.

The 3,000 cavalry of the Daxi Division, even if they came to help, it would be difficult to turn the tide of the battle.

Run away? There is no more chance. Their people are here, and even if the soldiers run away, what will happen to them?

In the upset and irritable of the bones, night fell.

That night, he often heard the roars of the war horses of the Han army in front and behind, and he thought that the Han army was going to attack the camp at night, so he ordered the tribesmen to strengthen the fence and tie the horses to the tent, ready to meet them at any time.

But after waiting all night, the Han army did not move, and Su Gufang did not sleep all night, and the fate of Ba Linkang and Han Jie made him feel cold.

In this situation, the bones have become a little grassy.

Before the two sides could start the war, the Xianbei soldiers were exhausted.

In the early morning, smoke rose from the formation on both sides of the Han army.

An hour later, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and others set out as a whole army. Run towards the Bone Tribe.

In Xu Huang's department, a loud and urgent horn sounded, and the army in Xu Huang's camp was dispatched.

One team and one team, the departments are connected. Neat.

The 9,000 Han troops in armor are like the maple forest in autumn, in full swing.

The soldiers were given the order to carry bows and spears, quivers, and shields to march towards the Bone Tribe.

Half an hour later, Xu Huang's army appeared a mile away from the fence of the Xianbei tribe.

And the cavalry led by Guan Yu had already appeared a mile away from the Xianbei tribe, and they seemed to be waiting for Xu Huang, ready to go out together.

At this time, Su Gu was holding his breath, and he seemed to have experienced the wind and rain, and he was extremely haggard.

They are nomads, good at riding and shooting, and now they are blocked at the door of their homes.

Just when Su Gufang was about to order his cavalry to go out of the camp to meet the Han army. The Han army raised the horn of attack.

Suddenly, the Han army drums and horns sounded, and the banner hunted in the wind.

Xu Huang's army, which was originally as calm as a pine, began to move.

The 9,000-strong army marched forward in orderly steps, like a mountain wall.

The Han army in the front row held a huge shield, and the soldiers in the first three rows were all heavily armored, and their formation did not become chaotic because of the march, but more solidified.

"Kill!"

Every time the Han soldiers took three steps, they shouted "kill". It was a calm rumbling attack.

Especially the hoplites in front, the stride was very arrogant and unstoppable.

This kind of shouting contagious and motivating each other, little by little, the inexplicable fear in the hearts of the Han army was dissipated.

Looking at the Han army coming majestically, Su Gufang's eyes turned from anger to shock, and then from shock to fear.

For the first time, he was afraid of the Han army's infantry.

The phalanx that slanted down seemed to be invulnerable, and it was fearsome to look forward to.

"My lord, it's not good. Those Han slaves have rebelled, and they are attacking our people. ”

A Xianbei man crawled over and reported to Su Gu in a panic.

"What!"

The bones were angry.

There are more than 3,000 Han men, women, and children enslaved by their Su Gu tribe, and these people can definitely make their situation worse if they resist.

Send someone to suppress? Where else are the people?

The men of the tribe who were over fifteen and nearly fifty years old came to resist the invasion of the Han army, and there were only 10,000 people.

There were far fewer men and horses than the Han army. The elite spirit of the Han army is compelling, and it is even more terrifying.

When Su Gufang made a decision, Xu Huangjun approached three hundred steps, and his murderous shouting of killing shocked their souls.

To the north, Guan Yu's iron cavalry also began to attack.

"Boom!"

Thousands of troops and horses galloped, and a soldier took out his bow and arrow, and shot it into the sky.

"Whoosh ......"

Arrows flew wildly in the air, dragging a rain of arrows with a long sound like locusts crossing the clear sky.

In the Xianbei camp, people kept falling from arrows.

The moment they had previously given up on using cavalry to confront the Han army, they had already lost.

It is a tragedy for a nomad to lose his horse.

They fired arrows to counterattack, but in the Han army was led by cavalry wearing Mingguang armor, and the lethality of Xianbei arrows was limited.

When the Xianbei people did not rain three rounds of arrows, Guan Yu and Xu Chu led their soldiers and horses to rush to the fence gate.

The wooden gate couldn't resist Guan Yu's slashing at all.

Bang!

The gate was destroyed by Xu Chu and Guan Yu together.

As soon as Guan Yu and Xu Chu entered the gate, dozens of Xianbei people flocked to meet them.

In front of the two top generals, these dozens of people were not enough to see at all, and the war horses passed sideways and scattered directly.

The fence was constantly destroyed, and more and more Han troops poured in.

The screams and screams are touching.

At the same time, Xu Huang led the army to a hundred steps to the fence of the Su Gu Department.

"Shoot the arrows."

He shouted and ordered the arrows to be released, he wanted to see if the dense rain of arrows could break the Han army away.

"Block!"

A rain of arrows with the sound of breaking through the air flew down.

The Han army in front held up a large shield, and the Han army in the rear held up a small shield.

A rain of arrows was all stuck in the shield.

After the rain of arrows, the Han army approached the camp in an orderly manner, although it was slow, but it was as steady as Mount Tai.
