Chapter 195: Humiliating the Corps
(a)
In fact, these Han soldiers have been able to ambush safely until now, thanks to the Hun soldiers.
If the Hun soldiers' riding skills were not so high, but they kept tripping against the corpse wall, these Han soldiers would have been exposed long ago; If the Hun soldiers were not so densely arranged, these Han soldiers might have been hit by the Han army's own arrows, but the Hun soldiers were superb in riding, and the arrangement was impermeable, so these Han soldiers could be ambushed safely until now.
Wei Changfeng saw that the soldiers in ambush had attacked, and the red flag was unfurled again.
On the left and right sides, six thousand Han soldiers shouted loudly and killed from the flanks and rear, these soldiers have been sharp for a long time, seeing that the Huns were slaughtered in large numbers but they could only watch dryly, they were already impatient, and now they got the order, and they all rushed forward from the side and back for a while.
Zheng Liu jumped to his feet and shouted: "Raise the crossbow arrows, shoot people, don't shoot horses!" ”
This order made Wei Changfeng say a word of praise in his heart.
Now that the Han army has attacked, of course they can't hurt their own people, the Huns are riding on horses, as long as they shoot on the horses, they won't hurt the infantry of the Han army, this Zheng Liu can react so quickly, he is really a perceptive person, don't look at him He turned out to be a painter, and he actually has a bit of a genius of command.
This sortie of the Han army made the Xiongnu's attack completely defeated. They were lined up so tightly that it was impossible to turn around, their backs were completely unprotected, the bows and arrows of the Han army were in front, and the swords and guns of the Han army were in the back, and they had nowhere to avoid.
The last 10,000 were wiped out.
On the battlefield, the blood has flowed not into a river, but into a tide, the ground is soaked in blood, the corpses are piled up, and people can hardly get off their feet. The soldiers of the Han army happily carried the corpses and piled up three high walls of corpses outside the battle line.
Wei Changfeng was busy doing a series of things.
He began by counting his own casualties.
Those who were slightly injured and able to fight were not counted, and the cumulative casualties were 300.
After this battle, the Huns lost a total of 37,000 people.
If according to this consumption ratio, when the Han army lost 1,500 men, the Huns would have died.
However, this consumption ratio is only afraid that it is not sustainable.
Because there are not many bolts left. Not even a flying spear.
The archers were moving their arms one by one, constantly drawing their bows and firing their crossbows, and their tired arms were about to dislocate.
Zheng Liu's face was sweaty and he ran to report: "There are not many crossbow arrows and flying spears in the car, but with that batch of temporary processing, it should be able to withstand it for a while." ”
Wei Changfeng nodded, turned his head to look behind him, and said with a smile: "It's okay, we can stand up for a while." ”
Zheng Liu looked at Wei Changfeng's gaze and also cheered.
Behind him, a troop of cavalry was hurrying from the direction of the twin cities. They were ordered to go to Shuangcheng to get bows and arrows, although there were not too many bows and arrows there, but there were more than the Han army's accompanying troops, and this batch of bows and arrows arrived at the right time, if it was later, I was afraid that the Han army would be in big trouble.
Wei Changfeng did not take this lightly, he glanced at Bai Qi, who was hurrying by, raised his voice to stop Bai Qi, and ordered: "Draw out a thousand people, specially collect bows and arrows and spears on the battlefield for processing, ignore whatever happens in front of you, and provide as many bows and arrows and spearheads as possible, what is the name of the newly appointed general?" Let him supervise it himself. ”
"It's called stability." Bai Qi replied, "I'll order him to be responsible." ”
Wei Changfeng smiled: "Anwen, this name is good, but you have to tell him that if he dares to procrastinate, his head must be unstable on his neck." ”
Bai Qi smiled, knowing that Wei Changfeng was joking. Who would dare to procrastinate at such a time?
Bai Qi hurried away, Wei Changfeng looked around, and saw that the cavalry transport team had arrived, Zheng Liu was busy directing the loading of crossbow and flying spears, and at the same time replenished the car, Bai Qi ran to inform An Wen to be responsible for processing crossbow arrows and flying spears, Zhang Sizhu was directing the soldiers to carry the corpses, Liu Quan was busy sorting out the formation, placing the wounded soldiers, everyone was busy, and all of them were orderly, secretly applauding in their hearts, thinking that if the generals of the Han army were like this, why worry about the Huns?
He looked up in the direction of the Huns again, and saw that the Hun army once again had no attack formation, this time they actually dismounted and rested, thinking that the commander of the Hun army was hesitating, whether to continue to save his dignity with such a huge loss, or give up his fighting spirit and attack around the attack.
Wei Changfeng thought for a while, beckoned to a major commander, and ordered: "You go and count it, and see if anyone wants to relieve it, bring it to me." ”
Most of the generals asked again to confirm that it was really this order.
This may be the strangest order ever given by all the ancient and modern Chinese and foreign commanders, and it is really strange in the world to recruit people to be relieved.
But Wei Changfeng didn't mean to joke at all, he stood there waiting, and even a little anxious.
In a few moments, seventy or eighty people were brought up. In fact, there are more to be relieved, but everyone is busy, and some people have no time to report even if they want to relieve themselves.
Wei Changfeng saw that there were not many people, and he was a little dissatisfied, so he ordered: "Go, find another hundred people to be relieved." ”
(2) As soon as these words came out, even the soldiers who wanted to be relieved laughed.
General Dingyuan is really caring, and he can't even do it if he wants to relieve himself.
Since General Dingyuan has an order, what else is there to say, and after a while, nearly three hundred people came to report.
Wei Changfeng nodded with satisfaction and said to the more than three hundred people: "Come with me." ”
Everyone followed Wei Changfeng inexplicably, not knowing what General Lu Dao Dingyuan was going to do.
Wei Changfeng led everyone through the battlefield, crossed the first and second corpse walls, and came to the third corpse wall, and said to everyone: "Look at it, follow me!" After that, he rushed in the direction of the Hun army, unbuttoned his pants and urinated on the corpse wall.
The soldiers around him cheered in unison and unbuttoned their pants, and some of them were even more unbearable.
Bai Qi was patrolling back and forth, first listening to Wei Changfeng looking for a solution in his heart, he felt that something was wrong, and then saw Wei Changfeng take everyone to the corpse wall to pee, he was shocked, and hurried over, and fell two heels in a row, he rushed to Wei Changfeng in a hurry, and said to Wei Changfeng: "General Wei, no!" Insulting corpses is a big taboo! ”
Wei Changfeng smiled while tying his pants: "It's over." When he saw that the soldiers had finished disarming, he immediately ordered: "Pull the corpses from behind the battle, strip them naked, pile them in the front, and pile them into a pile of corpses." ”
The soldiers laughed loudly and ran to carry out the order, and the white forehead was sweating: "General Wei, you can't do this!" This is not an insult to the Huns, but your prestige! ”
Wei Changfeng's expression also became serious, and he replied softly: "Brother Bai, I can't help it. The prestige is my own, but if this battle is not successful, death will have to be borne by all the soldiers of the Han army. ”
Bai Qi closed his mouth.
This is the second time that Wei Changfeng has called himself "Brother Bai" in public, a sentence of "Brother Bai" already contains a thousand words, since they are brothers, then, he can only trust and support Wei Changfeng.
In fact, he also guessed in his heart that Wei Changfeng's purpose in doing this should be to attract the Huns to attack, and the main force of the Han army hurriedly went south, and on the surface it seemed that it had retreated, leaving only Wei Changfeng's department and the defeated troops here, in order to block the Huns, but in fact, of course, Fang Zhenhai would not retreat like this, and General Fang must have attacked the Huns from the side. At this time, Wei Changfeng was needed to attract the main force of the Huns.
He understood Wei Changfeng's intentions, but it was really sad to let people say that General Wei insulted the corpse in the future, so he persuaded him, but what Wei Changfeng said was indeed the truth, in addition, what else could be done to attract the main force of the Huns?
Bai Qi sighed and said to Wei Changfeng: "Next time you do this kind of thing, please tell me and let me come." ”
Wei Changfeng laughed a little mischievously: "I won't give you this skill." ”
Bai Qi could only smile bitterly and shake his head.
If it is a merit, no one will fight with Wei Changfeng, they will only let it, but if it is too much, I am afraid that they will compete to bear it.
Wei Changfeng saw that Bai Qi was a little distracted, and said to Bai Qi: "The defeated soldiers in the back should be almost sorted out, right?" You take someone to pick a batch of good weapons on the battlefield and send them, and those who can fight will be transferred, and those who can't fight will be sent to the twin cities. ”
Bai Qi agreed and went to make arrangements.
Wei Changfeng slowly turned back over the corpse wall, and saw the Han soldiers carrying the corpses of the Huns one by one, and his heart was also a little blocked.
This was his own order, and it was he who asked these soldiers to insult the corpses of the Huns so much, and he knew that he had to do this, and he could only do it, but that didn't mean he liked it.
He sighed and slowly returned to the Chinese military flag.
In the direction of the Huns, the horn sounded again, but this time, the horn blew very strangely.
The voice was neither the long "woo~~~~" of the general attack, nor the short "woo, woo, woo" of the rapid attack, but a flowery voice, which sounded like "woo~~~~~ lur~~~~", which sounded poignant and sad.
This strange horn sound not only attracted Wei Changfeng, but also other Han army generals, and everyone looked up one after another.
The Huns did not get on their horses to prepare for battle, on the contrary, vaguely, the Huns could be seen kneeling towards the Han army!
More than 100,000 people knelt down one after another, and then a desolate song sounded, and the song was sung in unison to dozens of people, then hundreds, thousands, and finally hundreds of thousands of people in unison.
In the chorus of more than 100,000 people, this song seemed grander and more sad, and it sounded as if the whole earth was singing a lament.
"What's going on?"
"Are they begging us for mercy?"
The soldiers of the Han army asked questions one after another, but no one knew what was going on.
Wei Changfeng's heart felt faintly bad.
He heard a determination in this song, a determination to fight to the death! This is not a begging for mercy, this is most likely the Huns are going to fight hard!
