Chapter 254: Maudun's Demon Moth

Not really.

Although the Hun army can already see more clearly, but the distance from the charge is still far away, and now the horn is constantly sounding in the Hun army, what is going on?

There must be a demon when something goes wrong, what kind of demon moth is Mao Dun doing?

Maudun was indeed messing with the demon moth, and it was really beyond everyone's expectations.

Ten miles away from the Han army, the Xiongnu began to divide their troops. The Xiongnu's brigade suddenly slowed down, and from the team of 10,000 people, in a blink of an eye, the Xiongnu army in front of only 30,000 people remained, and the other 70,000 people were each 10,000 people, and they went around left and right.

Wei Changfeng's head buzzed.

If it had been before, he only had cavalry in his hands, and he could either divide his troops in the same way, or still gather together, and wait for a short surprise attack when the Hun army approached from all directions. But now he has 10,000 marching locomotives and 50,000 infantry in his hands, and if he counterattacks with cavalry, it is 40,000 against 100,000 people.

"Line up your defenses!" Wei Changfeng shouted.

The generals agreed one after another, commanding the Han army to line up the defensive formation, but their faces were a little anxious. Because what they are doing now is making the mistake of the previous Han army: facing the cavalry, defending with an infantry phalanx!

If they have 300,000 or even 500,000 people, they can still prevent this, but it is difficult to win, but now they only have 100,000 people, and although they have crossbows to help, it is still very difficult to defend against 100,000 people with 100,000 people.

Bai Qi's face was pale, and he rode back and forth, constantly urging the soldiers to line up, but he also knew in his heart that this time they had fallen into passivity. The problem is, whether he is or the other generals, no one has any good way, at least not for now.

The sound of the horn sounded again, the shouts continued in all directions, the dust was flying, and the seven Huns approached the Han army from four directions, front and back, left and right. They did not rush together, but one after another, or one team suddenly attacked, or two or three teams attacked at the same time, rushing and leaving immediately, never stopping. As a result, the Han army's repeater crossbows were not only greatly reduced, but also very seriously consumed.

"Take turns back!" Wei Changfeng saw that the situation was not right, he was not a madman, he couldn't fight to the death, at least for now, there were only these people in his hands, even if the reinforcements arrived according to the time of the military department, it would take another half a month to do it. He couldn't trade the lives of 100,000 people for time, so he decisively ordered to retreat.

The trumpet sounded again.

The impact of the Hun army began again, this time the impact was deeper, and several times rushed into the Han army's formation, but it was not entangled with the Han army, and it was still a retreat.

The formation of the Han army became scattered under the continuous impact of the Xiongnu army.

Seeing that the situation was critical, Bai Qi suggested to Wei Changfeng: "The last general will lead people to fight back." ”

Wei Changfeng hesitated.

This method is not impossible, the problem is that the counterattack can only be a short assault, once it is far away from the main force, it will fall into the encirclement of the Hun army, and a short assault is only afraid that the effect will be limited.

Another group of Xiongnu troops broke through and rushed straight into the ranks of the third row of the Han army before they were forced to retreat for the crossbows.

"Okay, you go, one blow retreats, don't stay." Wei Changfeng finally made up his mind.

The drums sounded, and Bai Qi and Zheng Kejin each led a team of 10,000 people to meet the nearest Hun cavalry.

The position of the Xiongnu army was chaotic for a while, and then began to change, the Xiongnu army counterattacked by the Han army fought and retreated, and the Xiongnu army on both sides quickly outflanked, which not only threatened to attack the flank of the Han army, but also prevented the main force of the Han army from aiding. However, several other Xiongnu armies continued to attack the Han army, and they went deeper.

Wei Changfeng sighed.

This result was not only expected, but also expected by Bai Qi, but in the face of the continuous attacks of the Huns, he could not be trapped and had to attack.

"General Bai and General Zheng are ordered to withdraw their troops." Wei Changfeng ordered.

Before the order was passed down, suddenly a low trumpet sounded, and the 70,000 troops of the Huns almost simultaneously rushed towards the Han army, while the 30,000 Huns who had not moved in front attacked the 20,000 troops of the Han army!

Wei Changfeng shouted.

Good yin means!

Now the Han army has 80,000 people, the formation is scattered, attacking with 70,000 people, even if it is not successful, the Han army will be in chaos, and the other side will attack 20,000 people with 30,000 people, taking the advantage, both sides attack at the same time, the Han army can not care about the left and right, and the front and back can not be considered, it is really difficult.

"With a repeater!" Wei Changfeng shouted urgently.

The repeater released two waves in succession, and then stopped.

Wei Changfeng didn't ask why, because he knew why: the crossbow arrows carried by the sergeant were used up!

Naturally, there are crossbow arrows in the army, but what the soldiers can carry is limited, and now the Huns are attacking from all directions, and the consumption of crossbow arrows is too large, and the soldiers continue to resist the rotational attacks of the Huns, and they have no time to replenish the crossbow arrows for a while.

For a moment, Wei Changfeng had the idea of letting the Shenji Battalion go up. However, the Hun cavalry had already attacked in front of the formation, and if the Shenji battalion went up, they would move too slowly, and the size of the Shenji locomotive would not only disrupt the defensive position, but also probably not have time to rush in front of the Hun army to break through the Han army's defense line, so they could only give up this plan.

But, how? Could it be that the Han army front was rushed away?

"The cavalry intercepted the enemy troops, and the infantry retreated, retreating to the rear of the Shenji battalion!" Wei Changfeng ordered.

This order meant that he was forced to divide the Han army into two parts, one part of the slow-moving infantry and Shenji battalion, and the other part of the cavalry.

This is something that Wei Changfeng has always disliked, because in this way, it is very likely that he will fall into a situation of fighting on his own, but the shape is forbidden, and now he can only do this.

The retreat speed of the Han infantry obviously could not catch up with the advance speed of the Hun cavalry, and before the Han infantry completely retreated behind the god locomotive, some Hun cavalry had already taken advantage of the situation to rush over. Seeing that if the arrows were not released, they would be rushed to the side of the god locomotive by the Hun cavalry, and the low-level generals of the god locomotive did not wait for the order of the superiors to give orders to release the arrows, and for a time the arrows rained down, although the Hun cavalry was stopped, but many Han soldiers also died under their own arrows.

Wei Changfeng gritted his teeth and commanded the battle, he knew that these generals were right, if the divine locomotive formation was broken through, it would not only be the Han army that had not retreated into the formation that was killed. But he also knew that this time, he was defeated. Although the loss of numbers is not serious, the situation is already very serious, and if it continues to be supported, I am afraid that the situation will be more difficult, but how can he retreat?

Wei Changfeng was embarrassed by himself, and suddenly there was an uproar in the back camp, Wei Changfeng turned his head sharply to look, but saw a small group of Hun cavalry bypassing the Han army defense line at some point and breaking straight through the rear camp!

Wei Changfeng's face changed greatly.

That area is where the craftsmen are concentrated, if the camp is set up, the repair of the god locomotive, ordnance manufacturing, etc. will be carried out there, although it is not camped now, but it is the safest place in the army, and a large number of ordnance is there, especially crossbow arrows and flying spears!

There is no need for the Hun cavalry to occupy there, as long as there is a fire, the crossbow arrows of the Han army will be burned to the ground!

Wei Changfeng looked around, and saw that there were no more troops to mobilize, so he had to order the guards around him: "All of them attack, go to the back camp!" ”

The captain of the guard was shocked, at such a time, all of them left General Wei, what about General Wei's safety?

"General Wei......" He just shouted three words, and Wei Changfeng shouted: "Go quickly!" ”

The captain of the guard gritted his teeth and shouted, "General, be careful!" "With three hundred guards, he hurried towards the rear camp.

Wei Changfeng took a deep breath, and was about to withdraw to the god locomotive to continue commanding, when dozens of Hun cavalry had already rushed in.

Wei Changfeng sighed.

He has a sword in his hand, a slender horse, and a crossbow behind his back, these dozens of Hun cavalry are no big threat to him, but if he gets into a fight, who will command the battle? If he retreats immediately, of course, he can get rid of the Hun cavalry, but his side is the banner of the Chinese army, if he retreats, the banner will fall, and if the banner falls, what will be the morale?

Before he could figure out how to deal with it, the standard-bearer holding the banner on the side suddenly shoved the banner into Wei Changfeng's hand and shouted, "General, retreat quickly!" ”

Wei Changfeng was stunned for a moment, and then understood that this flag bearer meant to let Wei Changfeng retreat with the flag, and although the flag retreated, it did not fall, so that it would be the best of both worlds. But what about the flag bearer?

The standard-bearer didn't give Wei Changfeng a chance to think. Although he is extremely powerful, he has always been the flag bearer, never engaged with the Huns, seeing others continue to kill the enemy, he is also hot, but the banner of the Chinese army is extremely important, so he can only envy, now, he has a chance.

The standard-bearer shouted angrily and drew his dagger from behind his back. Since he held the flag, he could not carry a long weapon on his body, only a short knife, and he held the short knife and rushed forward against the Hun cavalry.

Wei Changfeng sighed. I knew that this standard-bearer was going to die. But at this time, he didn't have time to mourn for this flag bearer, he held the flag, turned around and rode his horse, and retreated into the god locomotive after only a few ups and downs, and there were soldiers on the side who had already grabbed up to receive the flag.

At this time, the shouting and killing in the rear camp was loud, the guards had engaged with the Hun cavalry, in front, the Han army could retreat has basically retreated into the god locomotive, the god locomotive continued to release arrows, the Hun cavalry did not dare to approach for a while, but they refused to stay away, only outside the god locomotive.

"What's that?" A soldier suddenly shouted.

Wei Changfeng looked up, but saw hundreds of Hun cavalry approaching with thick torches in their hands, which seemed to be about to burn the god locomotive.

He turned around sharply to find Li Quan, and under normal circumstances, Li Quan should order a flying spear attack at this time to shoot down these torches in advance, but Li Quan was not in the command position!

Cold sweat dripped down Wei Changfeng's forehead.

Where did Li Quan go? Did you die? Or captured? At this time, he didn't have time to ask, so he could only give an order instead of Li Quan: "Flying spear attack!" ”

The sound was loud, the flying spear was shot out, and in a blink of an eye, hundreds of Hun troops fell, and those torches could not get close for a while, but the Hun army had surrounded the god locomotive array at this time, and kept circling around the god locomotive, as long as one was not careful, there would be torches thrown over, although the god locomotive was protected, but after all, it was made of wood, and it was impossible not to light it, and the soldiers of the god machine battalion were busy for a while.
