Chapter Seventy-Nine, The First World War

In the spring of the second year of the early peace of the Han Dynasty, on a gloomy day, on the southern boundless plain of Meiji County, under the dark clouds, there was a crowd of people who were pressed by black, and the armies on both sides confronted each other, which naturally created a tense atmosphere.

On one side is the solemn and neat phalanx army of the Han people, and on the other side is the army of the Huns who seem to be patchwork and even very different in height.

But at this time, they were as opponents and enemies, and the Han army had more than 43,000 people, plus Lü Bu and the remaining hundreds of light cavalry, the number did not exceed 45,000; The Xiongnu were 100,000 troops, and only a very small part of them were killed by Lu Bu's more than 2,000 light cavalry just now, but this number was more than twice that of Lu Bu's army, which had an absolute advantage over them.

Of course, the war does not depend entirely on numbers, but the cavalry of the Huns must not be underestimated, especially in this plain, Lu Bu's army can only fight with them, fortunately, Lu Bu has now only 3,000 pairs at the beginning to now is slowly popularizing the whole army with treasures such as double horse pedals, so these cavalry under his command will not necessarily be inferior.

At this time, Lu Bu was still recuperating, and this time it was really the first time since he was reborn that his body was completely overdrawn, and it can also be seen that the situation is dangerous, but if there is no such danger, it may not be possible to achieve today's goal, and in the next big war, it is temporarily Jia Xu who will preside over the war command with full authority.

He sat on the horse, looked back at the army behind him, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were full of determination, knowing that after Lu Bu was safe, the last and heaviest stone in his heart was finally put down, but at this time, there was not much burden, and he was able to start fighting with the Hun army.

At this moment, many sergeants of the Hun army seem to be a little confused in their eyes, after all, their commanders of the three armies have not yet shown signs of sobering up, although they all say that their lives have been saved, but they have not woken up, after all, it is difficult for people to feel at ease, and unlike Lu Bu, Lu Bu left his courageous attitude in the hearts of all the soldiers. Let their hearts be full of courage and fighting spirit; And the boss of the Huns, Hu Yan helped Luo, but was indirectly knocked unconscious by Lu Bu. Such a gap can also easily cause a gap in each other's hearts, not to mention the impact of the collapse of the military flag.

This qiē is naturally within Lu Bu's calculations, and it can be said that although he did not participate in this battle today, he has his figure and influence everywhere behind.

At this moment, Jia Xu said lightly: "Let's start!" ”

"Knock, knock, knock ......" heralded the beginning of the war, and the drumming of the Han army was bare-chested, and two black and thick arms waved a pair of drumsticks rhythmically. Each stroke was almost superimposed on the previous one, so that the drum surface of the war drum could not help but follow a faint imperceptible rhythm.

"Kill!" This sound seemed to roar out of the soul of the Han army, and it also seemed to be engraved into the soul of the enemy Xiongnu army opposite them.

The cavalry charged, paying attention to the momentum first, and the first voice to win people, this point is undoubtedly the Han cavalry with unified leadership and can maintain a certain order even in the sprint and practice the general's orders. But Jia Xu was frowning at the moment, obviously he was not so optimistic about the result of this charge.

In fact, he didn't really see the battle of the Southern Hun cavalry, and he knew that he got it from Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, which must have its subjective factors, and from the perspective of a strategist and from the perspective of a general, there must be a big difference between looking at an army from the perspective of a general, this time is the first time he really saw the sprint of the Hun cavalry on the spot, that kind of scene. It is undoubtedly very stimulating to the adrenal hormones of people. Of course, Jia Xu didn't know this, but he knew that he was also deeply affected by the scene in front of him at this moment. Perhaps this will be an unforgettable scene for the rest of his life.

The Huns are not tall from the head, although they also have eight feet of big men, but that is only a very few, and most of them are generals, ordinary soldiers are basically six or seven feet long, but here it has become their advantage, because the body is relatively short, the center of gravity is relatively low, so when riding a horse, they can better make some difficult actions that require physical cooperation, which is also the innate condition of the Hun cavalry relative to the Han cavalry.

However, it is not impossible to make up for it, the Huns' riding skills have an advantage, but there is no unified discipline, although the cavalry does not seem to need any unity and discipline when charging, but this is not necessarily beneficial in the war, at least such as the Lu Bu army with a phalanx to arrange the hierarchical and orderly offensive system, they also have a certain impact, and the Lu Bu army cavalry is fully equipped, and the double horse pedal is simply a horse war weapon, not only to make up for the gap with the other party's horsemanship, and even exceed, This will work both in speed and when fighting on horseback.

Of course, it is not easy for Guangguang to break through the Hun cavalry with this, judging from the current scene, the attrition speed of the Lu Bu army is about the same as that of the Hun army, but this is only the beginning, as the armies of both sides are all gathered together, a big melee began, at this time, no matter what military discipline and order, the two sides only care about rushing forward, only know to attack when they see the enemy, as for when there will be a black hand behind the back, no one can predict, and can only passively accept.

Wars, especially cavalry wars, that's what happened.

Hu Yan helped Luo to fall into a coma but played the role of the temporary commander Lan Hulu Ye is not incompetent after all, he did not blindly press all the 100,000 troops in one fell swoop, but first confronted the other party with the same number of troops, and his Lan clan's soldiers and horses are among them, so that the other generals have nothing to say, they can only listen to his arrangement, which makes the Han army a little scruples here, worried about when to let the remaining half of the new army into the battlefield, which may affect the situation of the battle at any time.

When the same number of people faced off, it seemed that the number of casualties on both sides was about the same, but because of the difference in morale and other aspects, in fact, the Hun army had fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage, and in the end, there were signs of rout, which was still in Jia Xu's jealousy that the 50,000 people left behind did not make a ruthless move, but Lan Huluye could sit still, and seemed not to worry at all, and he did not put the 50,000 troops behind him into it for a long time.

The few generals next to him have already worn out their mouths, basically all of them are the tribal leaders who are fighting on the front field with their own soldiers at this time, Kelan Huluye doesn't care about them, at least for now he supports and opposes five or five waves, he can delay the time like this, of course, he has his own considerations, but he doesn't mean to.

And at a certain moment, the Hun army on the field was about to collapse, and there began to appear soldiers who still wanted to run back even if there was a sword and axe hand in the rear that was ordered to retreat, and they still wanted to run back.

However, the Lu Bu army over there is becoming more and more courageous, seeing this, Lan Hulu Ye finally made the most important decision of his battle, the whole army pressed, including the 50,000 fresh troops, and suddenly the crowd was crowded, even in the vast plains, it seems that you can see either the Xiongnu or the soldiers of the Lu Bu army everywhere, the two sides are fighting each other, swords and swords, flesh and blood flying.

Until this time, the numerical superiority of the Xiongnu army was slowly manifested, and it became more and more obvious with the passage of time, and half of them were in a state of rest before, and their physical strength was well preserved, and it was very easy to deal with the Lü Bu army, which had already consumed almost all the energy to deal with the same number of enemy troops.

This time, there is no doubt that Lu Bu's army fell into the disadvantage, but it is conceivable that the Hun army has not completely come out of the shadow of the commander's coma and the fall of the military flag, so it will not let Lu Bu's army lose too ugly.

To put it bluntly, the current Hun army is still commanded, and Lan Hulu Ye's scheduling does have a set, and those ordinary Hun soldiers, although their morale is not good, but their Su zhì, their number of these advantages are still there, plus they are still in the Meiji grassland, in the place they are familiar with, galloping day and night, the combat effectiveness they can exert is naturally not comparable to the previous Yufu Luo army.

Although it could have been predicted a long time ago, although it was understandable, Jia Xu still couldn't help but be disappointed in his heart, and then spit out a breath of turbidity, raised his hand and patted it: "Collect the troops!" ”

Lu Bu's army retreated with a neat pace, after all, the Hun army did not dare to pursue lightly, although they had the upper hand just now, and it was not impossible to really take advantage of the victory to pursue down, but who knows if these cunning Han people had ambushes, and whether they deliberately showed weakness just now?

Although the Xiongnu army from generals to ordinary soldiers have the confidence to sweep each other, but when facing off against the Han people with "rich criminal records", they really have to be careful and careful, not to mention that they still have internal pain in their own now, and before Hu Yan helps Luo wake up, or change the commander to replace him, they still can't achieve a unified order, and the pursuit is meaningless.

Lan Hulu Ye, who was looking at this qiē from afar, was also relieved, he was really worried that his side would lose when he was fighting just now, although he had confidence in himself, but there were always some crows around him who could not stand it, but now that the qiē was finally over, although it was only a temporary end, Lan Hulu Ye believed that with today's battle, he could initially establish his prestige and enhance his prestige during the period when Huyan helped Luo to fall into a coma and his temporary replacement. A lot of things after that just started out naturally. (To be continued.) )
