Chapter 339: The Battle of Maocheng (5)

Xin Ping's intuition made him feel that in this confrontation with the New Han Army, he still had some aspects that he did not consider, or rather, there were some places that he really did not expect. However, now, he was almost certain that things must be as he thought, and the New Han army would definitely come around from the mountains and attack the weak link of his Maocheng defense.

It is conceivable that he will pay all his attention to the north and east of Maocheng, and the adjustment of military horses is also focused on the north and east of the city, while the west of the city is almost not fortified, in case the west of the city is killed, by the new Han army from the mountains, close to the west of Maocheng, when the time comes, the new Han army suddenly attacks the city, even if they want to adjust the defense, it is too late to send military horses to defend the city. Once the city was broken into by the New Han army, Maocheng was declared lost.

Xin Ping thought of this possibility, and while he was excited, he also broke out in a cold sweat. I hope that before the New Han Army has been killed, my own people will grasp the whereabouts of the New Han Army, and then make targeted arrangements to eliminate the invading New Han Army in one fell swoop.

How so? I don't know if Xin Pingshi is ill-fated, when he has already figured out this problem, it is already too late, the current New Han Army, under the leadership of Zhao Yun, has already bypassed Maocheng, and went out of the mountain in the dark, and has already hidden around Han Meng's cavalry camp, in addition, the more than 20,000 New Han Army still has time to rest for more than an hour, until the sky is bright.

Perhaps, Xin Ping has now guessed that the New Han Army will take this action, and has guessed that the New Han Army may come in from the mountains, but he never expected the goal of the New Han Army. But it was not to attack his Maocheng, but to destroy Han Meng's cavalry of 50,000 men, which posed a greater threat to the New Han Army.

This time. Han Meng had just come out of Maocheng, and the sky had just revealed a touch of fish belly white.

This cavalry battalion of Han Meng. Relatively speaking, after all, they are all in the rear of the front line, and there is a Mao City before it. Therefore, no one thought that there would be any danger to his cavalry battalion, or it can be said that when he built this military camp after Han Meng listened to Xin Ping's Jianyi and he built an army of pure cavalry as a raid army. He didn't even consider the possibility that his military camp would be attacked by the New Han Army.

Therefore, this cavalry camp can only be regarded as a temporary military camp, which is quite poorly built.

Of course, this military camp occupies a large area, and it is almost a camp where all a small slope is classified as a cavalry camp. They are here, mainly to facilitate the dispatch of troops to raid the invading New Han army, so. Their horses were kept in front of the camp, east and south of the camp, and their tents. Rooted in the back of the hillside, as far as the eye can see, the layers break up the mountain. On the top of the hill is Han Meng's Chinese army tent.

When it's time to send troops. The army assembled and rushed to the front of the camp to fetch the horses from each other. Then they got on their horses and went out of the camp.

When Zhao Yun arrived at this Yuan army cavalry camp in the middle of the night, when he saw the situation of this military camp, he had never been smiling, and he couldn't help but let out a chuckle when he was quite cold.

Well, it may be to facilitate the relationship between their own cavalry and this cavalry battalion, in front of this barracks, there are no general defensive equipment at all, such as antlers, traps or whatnot, there is no at all. Their camp was simply fenced off with some wooden fences.

Without those things, that is to say, the officers and soldiers of the New Han Army could directly rush to this cavalry battalion of the Yuan Army without any obstacles. Break through the fence of the camp and go inside.

In addition, Yuan Jun's war horses are all in Qianzhai, and you can see at a glance that tens of thousands of war horses are all there. It is conceivable that once Zhao Yun and the others launch an attack, they must first let these war horses go, so that this Yuan army, without war horses, is an ordinary infantry. The cavalry that lost their horses greatly reduced their combat power, even if they had half more men than the soldiers led by Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun was also confident that they could defeat the Yuan soldiers here in one fell swoop.

Of course, Zhao Yun naturally wouldn't let those war horses go, but thought that he could use these war horses to attack the Yuan army barracks behind the barracks first. Well, tens of thousands of war horses, rushing over and trampling on the Yuan army barracks, that kind of scene is like tens of thousands of troops rushing over, I believe its lethality is amazing.

In fact, Zhao Yun rushed here and saw the situation of the Yuan army's cavalry battalion, and Zhao Yun knew that he had won the battle. Just wait for his soldiers to rest for a while, recover their bodies, and as soon as the sky is light, they can launch an attack on this cavalry battalion of the Yuan army.

When an arc of red wheels appeared on the eastern horizon, and the glow of the sun spilled out, the clouds and mist of the earth were like surging clouds, and its churning spectacle was visible to the naked eye.

What made Zhao Yun also feel a little surprised was that the front camp of the Yuan army barracks, that is, the area where the war horses were held for several miles, was a more low-lying area, originally, when the sun came out and the fog would dissipate, that area was shrouded in dense fog, and the entire Yuan army cavalry camp could only see the layers of Yuan soldiers' military tents on the small slope, and the war horse camp below, only a silhouette could be vaguely visible.

The soldiers of the New Han Army have already rested, even if it is just for them to rest on the spot for more than an hour, but it is enough. Zhao Yun asked the soldiers to eat a little dry food first, and after they were full, it was the time to act.

This Yuan cavalry battalion is very large, Zhao Yun knows that he only has 20,000 soldiers, and it is impossible to surround the entire Yuan army cavalry battalion, so he just let the 20,000 soldiers take the battalion as a unit, divide it into about ten roads, and launch a surprise attack on the Yuan army barracks from all directions.

Of course, after Zhao Yun found that Yuan's war horses could be used by himself, he decided to drive the war horses to trample on the Yuan army's barracks first, so that when the war horses formed a flow and rushed to a place, that direction could not let the New Han army surround and kill, so as not to let his army suffer the impact of the war horses. Therefore, the New Han Army in that direction, Zhao Yun ordered them that when the time comes, they do not need to participate in the attack on the Yuan army barracks, they are only responsible for capturing the war horses that rushed out of the Yuan army barracks.

In the second half of the night, Zhao Yun had already observed the firelight in the cavalry camp of the Yuan army. Yuan Jun's war horses were guarded by thousands of people. They guarded it in batches, in the middle of the night. I just saw Yuan Bing changing guards.

Thousands of Yuan soldiers are guarding the war horses, after all, war horses are different from ordinary horses, in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of war horses, they also have to be fed forage in the middle of the night. The Yuan soldiers who took care of it estimated that their main task was to feed the tens of thousands of war horses.

These thousands of Yuan soldiers are scattered among the war horses to feed the war horses, then. It seems that the thousands of Yuan soldiers are not very conspicuous.

In this way, Zhao Yun was not afraid of being discovered by them at all, and at that moment, he gave an order, and there were three battalions of thousands of soldiers of the New Han Army, and they rushed to the front camp of the Yuan Army's cavalry battalion with him.

Even if it was a mixed army trained by Tai Shici, one or two battalions of it were cavalry, and of course, this time these cavalrymen did not come on war horses. Then, these tens of thousands of Yuan Jun's war horses just came in handy.

Zhao Yun took the lead, and rushed to the front of Yuan's military camp like a lightning flash. He didn't directly break into the gate of the main camp guarded by many Yuan soldiers. Instead, they break in directly from the side. With no barriers, he could rush directly beyond Yuan Bing's fence.

Before, some of the arrows were on top of the tower. Some of them were sleepy-eyed and beat the sentries repeatedly. However, they had not yet seen the dark shadows in the fog outside the camp. They were shot to death by the archers of the New Han Army.

Of course, when they were shot, there was actually some noise, and now, after all, it was broad daylight, and it was impossible to kill the enemy as close as at night, and the enemy did not know it. However, the sound of Yuan Bing, in this open Yuan Bing camp, did not seem to cause much repercussions. The occasional scream also stopped abruptly.

In the camp where the war horses were kept, there were occasionally some abnormal sounds, and those Yuan soldiers who had not yet gotten up, and the Yuan soldiers who were sleeping lazy at the end, their vigilance was far less than usual. In their hearts, the Yuan army, who didn't think that anyone would attack the camp, didn't make any changes.

Zhao Yun's coiling dragon spear stabbed out, and with a bang, it directly broke a big hole in the wooden fence surrounding Yuan's barracks, and then the people went inside.

Inside, there were Yuan soldiers who were stunned because of the sound and movement, but they met Zhao Yun, and all the Yuan soldiers encountered by Zhao Yun were stabbed to death by Zhao Yun, and there was no way to even shout.

Zhao Yun loved white horses, and at a glance, he saw that among the countless war horses of the Yuan army, there was a particularly tall and divine white horse, and he jumped directly on the back of the horse and took it for himself.

At this time, the Yuan army barracks finally realized that something was wrong, because there were more and more screams.

Especially the Yuan army sentries on the hillside, they vaguely saw the movement of the war horses below. At this time, the fog is still relatively heavy, but it does not mean that you cannot see things.

With the screams of someone and the neighing of war horses for a long time, the Yuan soldiers on the mountain finally beat the drums.

For a while, the entire cavalry battalion of the Yuan army moved. The tents of the Yuan soldiers on the hillside, the doors of the military tents were opened, and the Yuan soldiers, who had not had time to dress neatly, rushed out of the tents with weapons and assembled urgently.

Among the tens of thousands of war horses in the front camp, there were thousands of Yuan soldiers, and they finally saw the soldiers of the New Han Army who came to sneak attack, and they were so shocked that they shouted loudly to warn. They were scattered in the war horse camp to take care of the war horses, and the New Han army came in, and it was indeed impossible to find them among the tens of thousands of war horses and kill them for a while. These Yuan soldiers, seeing the soldiers of the New Han Army, only a very small part of them were able to muster up the courage and pounce on the soldiers of the New Han Army, but more importantly, they jumped on their horses and fled behind.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun was not in a hurry to kill the Yuan soldiers who were mixed in the war horses, and immediately ordered his people to snatch the war horses, and after seizing the war horses, they began to gallop back and forth, driving the war horses to the rear camp of the Yuan soldiers.

War horses are social animals. Disturbed horses, they are more accustomed to gathering together, forming a herd, and then galloping in one direction.

There were so many war horses, and thousands of soldiers of the New Han Army who rushed into the camp of the Yuan army with Zhao Yun were almost all handed. The soldiers on the horses, they galloped back and forth with swords and guns, cutting the reins of the tied horses, so that the horses could move freely, so that they could be driven in the same direction.

Soon, countless war horses of the Yuan army were liberated and driven to move by the soldiers of the New Han Army.

Most of these horses of the New Han Army are also familiar with the habits of war horses, and some guys are running fast in order to make war horses. Directly stabbed a sword in the buttocks of some war horses, so that. A warhorse that is frightened and pained will go crazy. will rush forward regardless of a qiē.

In fact, it turned out that thousands of Yuan soldiers who were taking care of the war horses, and most of them saw that when the New Han army attacked the camp, they grabbed their horses and fled, and subconsciously, they all fled in the direction of the crowds and to the back of the barracks. In this way, those ownerless war horses were driven by the New Han army and led by those fleeing Yuan soldiers. Slowly, a torrent formed, rumbling straight towards the hillside camp behind.

Tens of thousands of war horses moved in unison, and the rumbling sound was like thunder, and there was a momentum of the sky falling apart.

"Kill!"

At the same time, the soldiers of the New Han Army who came in from both sides of the Yuan army camp also shouted in unison and rushed into the camp.

At this time, tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers were killed. To the sound of urgent drums, they came out of their tents and gathered together. However, they are not yet fully assembled. But they were all dumbfounded, because they stood on the top of a slightly higher hill and looked down. I saw the war horse that was originally theirs, the horse that was originally their journey. At this moment, they seemed to be crazy, and they rushed up to their camp in a dense manner.

In the beginning. The speed of the war horses running in front was not too fast, but even if it was not fast, the tent that blocked the torrent of these war horses in front of it was broken through in the blink of an eye and was knocked to the ground under the impact of the torrent of these war horses.

For a while, it gives people the feeling of turning on their backs. Those war horses, knocked down things, they suffered pain again, and a steady stream of war horses squeezed over behind, and there were some Yuan soldiers who fled from below. These war horses, almost instinctively, suddenly galloped with their hooves in a hurry.

The tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers on the hillside were really dumbfounded at this moment, even if most of the Yuan soldiers, they didn't know what was happening now for a while, but with the shouts of killing bursting out from around their camp, they also understood at this moment that they were now being attacked by the New Han Army.

And this is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is the war horses in front of them that are madly rushing towards them. Tens of thousands of war horses, at a glance, the black pressure is overwhelming, these war horses rushed over, but they can't recognize them as their masters, if they are directly crushed by these war horses, then there is still life?

"Run!"

I don't know who shouted first, but the Yuan soldiers who were not completely assembled, they turned around and fled. It's not okay if they don't escape, even in the face of the charge of the New Han Army, they may still have a little way to live, or they will fight to the death with the New Han Army, at least they can fight, or there is still a little hope of survival. Otherwise, when they saw the New Han Army, they would directly kneel and surrender, according to the tradition of the New Han Army, for those who surrendered on their knees, they would generally not kill indiscriminately, so they could still live. However, now in the face of the herd of war horses rushing over like a tide, do they dare to say that they will fight? You know, these war horses don't care if you surrender on your knees, these war horses will definitely not spare them and trample on them just because they see them kneeling and surrendering.

Therefore, if they don't escape, they will only be trampled into pulp by this war horse array.

However, even if they turn around and run, can they run through the crazy war horses that have already run at a speed?

A heart-wrenching and unbearable picture appeared, even the initiator of this attack on the camp, the soldiers of the Xinhan Army, saw such a situation, and couldn't help but feel a sense of compassion in their hearts.

Well, tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers who turned around and ran away were covered by the torrent of crazy war horses before they ran far at all.

That's right, it's cover, originally, you can still see Yuan Bing running in front of him, but he disappeared all of a sudden, and was trampled under the feet of all the war horses. For a while, the screams were continuous, and the crying was infiltrating.

The heavens and the earth shone brightly, and under the sun, all the fog was dispelled. However, the scene in front of the eyes of the New Han Army made them, the initiators, feel a little chilled.

The horses rushed up completely, crossed the small hill, and all that was left behind was a field of flesh and mud, a field of red and terrifying flesh and blood.

There is no need to fight, tens of thousands of Yuan soldiers were so rushed by the torrent of war horses, even if there were Yuan soldiers who were able to escape and were not trampled to death by the war horses, they were already frightened.

To be honest, in such a situation, even Zhao Yun did not expect it, and he never thought that he would defeat the cavalry of the Yuan army with tens of thousands of horses so lightly.

In Zhao Yun's heart, he originally thought that by taking advantage of the impact of the war horse, he would break through the Yuan army camp, break away the Yuan army soldiers in the Yuan army camp, and then lead people to cover up and kill, so that he could destroy the main army of the Yuan army of tens of thousands in one fell swoop. However, I didn't expect that as soon as this war horse torrent hit, this Yuan army would be destroyed.

The battle was won, but there were no soldiers of the New Han Army cheering, after all, the situation in front of him was too tragic. They all didn't come back to their senses a little.

Zhao Yun rode his horse to the top of the hillside, and on the other side, the rumbling herd of war horses had already rushed out to a far place, and there were soldiers of the New Han Army who were capturing those crazy war horses.

Looking around, there were still many Yuan soldiers kneeling on both sides of the Yuan army's camp in a daze, that is, they saw the opportunity early and fled to both sides, avoiding the trampling of the torrent of war horses. However, they have long lost the courage to fight.

According to visual inspection, the trampling of the torrent of war horses, Zhao Yun estimates that at least more than 10,000 Yuan soldiers who trampled to death were killed, and this result was really a bit amazing.

"Surrender or kill!"

Although the battlefield made people feel unbearable, Zhao Yun still stood on the top with a cold face, raised his gun and shouted.

"Surrender or kill!"

The soldiers of the New Han Army around them also shouted in unison. (To be continued......)
