Chapter 137: Waiting

The momentum of the Hui army's charge was daunting, and the 100,000 Hui army was overwhelmingly charged, intending to completely collapse the enemy with crowd tactics and spiritual tactics, and they had to seize the opportunity, because the enemy was their enemy who had hit their enemies hard in Hanzhong.

The cavalry brigade of the Hui army also showed an indomitable fighting spirit, more than 4,000 horses, roundabout to both sides, launched a fierce attack on the Huaxia army, although Bai Yanhu knew that the effect of this move was really slim, and he was also strong.

Luoyang only left more than 1,000 people to guard Xianyang City, and the remaining 12,000 people went out of the south of the city to form a large formation to meet the challenge of the return army.

That is of course safe, but it may not be able to attract the Hui army to attack, if the Hui army monitors the city with a force, the rest of the troops quickly transfer to the west, although several county towns are in the hands of Huaxia Tian**, but, in the face of the large number of Hui troops, there is no enough artillery Huaxia army, more than enough guards, insufficient attack,

The main artillery of the Huaxia Army is in the hands of Luo Yang, which is the trump card of the decisive battle.

As soon as he saw the formation of the Hui army, Luo Yang knew that they really did not have a competent commander, at least, they did not have enough military quality, with Luo Yang's own knowledge, he was just a novice for a few months, but after diligent study, he had mastered the tactical principles of the era of alternating hot and cold weapons,

When the firepower is insufficient, the arrangement of troops becomes the best way to exert the energy of scale.

Although the charge of the Hui army seems to be very rhythmic, it is actually a rabble method of warfare, without a core idea, that is, blindly using brute force and rushing it.

The Huaxia army arranged a circular formation to avoid the outflanking assault of the Hui cavalry, which led to the collapse of the large array and the whole army suffered, anyway, as long as the Huaxia army could stabilize the situation, it could win with artillery.

Thoughts are thoughts, Luo Yang, who was full of ambition, still didn't expect that there was really an accident, although the charge of the Hui army was disorderly, but the power was too great, and the advance of the Huaxia army was broken through as soon as it came into contact.

It's not that the Huaxia army is too weak, but that the Hui army is too fierce, and the thickness of the force determines the durability of the battle.

The Hui army went forward one after another, quickly broke through the forward defense line of the Huaxia Army, and wantonly slashed and killed the retreating Huaxia Army soldiers, and at least more than 300 Huaxia Army soldiers were killed in the process of this battle.

The cavalry of the Hui army was also repeatedly attacking the flanks of the Huaxia army, distracting Luo Yang and others.

In addition to the frontal, the Hui army learned the lessons of the decisive battle of Hanzhong City, and tried to disperse the troops as much as possible to avoid artillery fire.

In the face of the cunning and fierce Hui army, the Chinese army was defeated and forced to shrink to the middle of the large array.

The battle lasted for half an hour, and the Luoyang army suffered the price of more than a thousand soldiers being killed, however, resolutely not using artillery,

This is a decoy, indicating that the Huaxia army did not carry artillery, and to make the Hui army charge decisively,

The Hui army was very cunning, although it charged intensively, when it came to the contact surface, it was as scattered as possible, and it was entangled with the Huaxia army.

The vanguard of the Hui army decisively penetrated violently into the formation of the Huaxia army, trying to break up its formation, and then completely encircle and annihilate it.

"King Rui, hurry up and give an order, let the artillery bombard the enemy, otherwise, it will be dangerous." The generals around him can't wait,

Luo Yang didn't know who the enemy's commander was, but looking at this formation, he knew that the enemy was prepared, so he also adhered to the principle and only used infantry and spearmen to fight, hiding the cannon very deeply.

The area around Xianyang is full of plains, in order to conceal the artillery fire, the Luoyang army held a small village outside the city, dug many ravines inside and outside the village, artillery soldiers and artillery were hidden in it, waiting for the moment of decisive battle.

Bai Yanhu looked at the enemy in the village vigilantly, he couldn't tell whether these long-haired troops with different banners were long-haired or not, but when he saw that they were Han aliens from the hairstyle, he was determined to completely eliminate them, and there was not a single scum left.

There are not many enemies, so he is sure of victory, the key is that he is worried about being ambushed by the enemy, the strange shelling and explosion sound under the city of Hanzhong still resounded in his mind, and the sneak attack of the long-haired army that night made him even more frightened and angry.

The Huaxia army was defeated and retreated, and the generals around him frequently urged, "Commander, hurry up." ”

"Yes, the Qing army from the east is coming over soon, we can't afford to delay."

"Dashuai, what are you still hesitating about?"

Bai Yanhu glanced at everyone coldly: "I'm resting for a while and charging in person." ”

"Ahh

Since he saw that the enemy was about to fail, Bai Yanhu couldn't bear it anymore, and personally led three hundred cavalry to chase after the troops.

The wounded left arm, with a faint pain, was cut by sharp shrapnel on the right calf of a piece of flesh, and a white cloth was bandaged, Bai Yanhu pinched the spurs, decisively shouted angrily, and left, behind, three hundred cavalry followed closely,

The Hui army sounded the trumpet of the general attack, and hundreds of gongs and drums were also beaten together, and the dull copper drum shook the whole earth and resonated as if it were trembling.

The Hui army was brave, and the Huaxia army was also quite brave, repeatedly rushing and killing on the positions outside the village, the blood soaked the wet soil, the dense weeds, because of the lack of peasant service in the war and lush like a forest, which gave the Hui army room to lurk and advance,

The first ** return army attack finally pressed the Huaxia army into the village, and the circular formation had shrunk into a point.

The Hui soldiers bravely slashed and killed the lone Huaxia soldiers, although the latter was very brave and could often cut down a few Hui soldiers, but the crowd of the Hui army decided everything, and the chaotic saber instantly drowned a single soldier of the Huaxia Army.

The cold weapon combat quality of individual soldiers, the Huaxia Army is far lower than that of the Hui Army, and once the soldiers of the Huaxia Army are alone, it will become a mortal situation.

Anyway, this was a bloody battle, and the Huaxia army paid great sacrifices in order to lure the enemy into taking the bait, and in just one hour of fighting, it lost more than 2,300 people, almost one-fifth of the total.

Finally, the Hui army launched a full-scale charge, which was completely chaotic, without the initial cautious rules, and was no longer part of the crowd tactics, but all the crowds, which spread over one by one.

Several Hui troops even infiltrated the village, only to be killed by the soldiers of the Huaxia Army who resisted to the death.

At nine o'clock in the afternoon of this day, the sky was overcast, and the dense cumulonimbus clouds piled up in the southeast sky, as if they could be pressed at any time and place, and the torrential rain poured.

This phenomenon is Luo Yang's anxiety, not only to return to the army into the range of artillery, to maximize the damage, but also not to let the heavy rain fall, this kind of flying thunder cannon ignited by open powder, once it encounters heavy rain, all in vain,

Luo Yang was scouting outside the village on horseback, and was almost surrounded by a group of Hui troops.

When it was precarious, Luo Yang saw the good phenomenon of the brigade of the returning army, all pressed up,

In fact, Bai Yanhu also hates rain, if it rains, no matter how brave he is to return to the army, he will be entangled in the mud when he charges, and his power will be greatly reduced.

The artillery fire of the Huaxia Army exploded at the most critical moment,
