Chapter 209: The Little Decisive Battle

Yue Zhan and others led 5,000 heavy armored cavalry and 20,000 soldiers of the Western Army to leave Ancheng, and in the first battle, they had already received news that about 30,000 cavalry from the Huns had left the camp and killed them on their side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

And the 25,000 men they brought with them, in addition to the 5,000 heavy cavalry, there were 10,000 cavalry, and 10,000 infantry.

In fact, this time it was also a test they did, to be specific, it was a bold attempt that Yue Zhan wanted to make. In the previous round of competition, the Western Army had a slight advantage, indicating that the individual combat ability of the Hun cavalry was not as good as that of the Western Army, although it would not be too bad, but at least they would not have an advantage.

This time, Yue Zhan's infantry and cavalry were pulled out, just to try to see if the infantry array could restrain those Hun cavalry, after all, they couldn't put all the treasure on the heavy armored cavalry like gambling, if the Huns found a way to deal with the heavy armored cavalry that day, then they would have no other moves to use.

And although the heavy armored cavalry is amazingly powerful, it will be very useful on the battlefield, but he also has a lot of shortcomings, the conditions for becoming a heavy armored knight in the first place are already extremely harsh, and he needs so many resources, if he is not rich, few people can afford a large-scale heavy armored cavalry.

The biggest disadvantage of the heavy cavalry is that his mobility is very poor, they are like those bulky mountain artillery, the power is huge, but the mobility is not flattering, among all the cavalry arms, the mobility of the heavy cavalry is the worst, which makes him have a lot of limitations.

If one side loses in the war, then the heavy cavalry on their side is the team that takes on the task of the last palace, because they are too bulky and the goal is big, so they can hardly run away, and their enemies will not let them run away, they know how great the combat effectiveness of a heavy cavalry is, so they will find a way to leave them behind and bury them all.

Therefore, Yue Zhan did not dare to bet all the treasures on the heavy armored cavalry, especially now that the Western Army lacks Yunye, their morale and combat effectiveness seem to have dropped a notch, if the heavy armored cavalry does not play its due role, then he at least has other ways to deal with the Hun cavalry, so as not to sit still.

The soldiers of the Western Army, regardless of the cavalry and infantry, now all sit on their horses and go to the place where they and the Huns agreed, sitting on the war horses can save their physical strength, so that they can have enough strength to fight with the enemy when they fight, the most important thing is that now the Western Army is not short of war horses...

An hour passed quickly, and the soldiers of the Western Army soon arrived at the place of the battle, and in the distance, countless smoke and dust rose in the sky, and it seemed that the Huns were rushing to this side.

It seems that going out a little earlier every time is a good habit, and sometimes a good habit can benefit them a lot. Now they have time, calmly arrange their troops, and they will not worry that the Hun cavalry will suddenly attack, they will arrive here now, at least two quarters of an hour, enough for them to set up the battle array.

Yue Zhan commanded left and right, the front was arranged with a phalanx of 10,000 infantry, and the 10,000 infantry were divided into two phalanxes and placed at the front, behind them, there were 5,000 heavy armored cavalry, 5,000 heavy armored cavalry was also located in the center of the battle array, and behind the 5,000 heavy armored cavalry, there were 10,000 light cavalry.

Yue Zhan had his reasons for arranging the formation like this, and even he felt that this was a wonderful battle formation, at least against the light cavalry of the Huns, this phalanx could greatly consume the enemy's vital strength, and could limit the flexibility of the enemy's cavalry, which was extremely beneficial to the Western Army.

The two infantry phalanxes of 5,000 people at the forefront were placed on the side, and his role was actually greater for defense, treating them as moving roadblocks, and when the time came, with their movements, the formation of the Hun cavalry could be disrupted.

And the five thousand heavy armored cavalry behind them is the real highlight, they will definitely let the Huns take the lead in the charge, when they rush over, the infantry in front of them will slowly lean to the sides, making way for the heavy cavalry charge.

By that time, the Huns would find out, it would be too late, and they would only be able to go head-to-head with the heavy cavalry of the Western Army, and the light cavalry would have a head-to-head with the heavy cavalry? Just kidding, it's not like you're hitting a stone with an egg, even if you have a lot of eggs, they'll all break in the end.

When the heavy cavalry was fighting with the enemy, the infantry phalanx began to consume little by little, slowly eating the Huns' cavalry, while the light cavalry of the Western Army, at this time, would circle from both sides, squeezing the Huns little by little, and slowly eating them bite by bite, until they were defeated, then they would really let go of the massacre.

The battle formation on the side of the Western Army has just been set up, and the Huns are about to be killed, Yue Zhan is not panicking, but let the soldiers rest and adjust the state to the best, and they must give these Huns a dismount later, so that they know that in the land of the Great Jin, their Western Army is the most arrogant, and the victory belongs to the Western Army!

When the Huns came, they did not dare to attack immediately, but carefully observed the surroundings, and found that there was indeed no ambush, and they began to slowly become arrogant.

The Xiongnu soldiers originally looked down on the Jin people in the south, thinking that they were too cunning, like foxes, and were not worthy of being a real warrior at all, while the men of their steppe were the real warriors, real warriors, and they would definitely defeat those cowards in the end.

Although they had suffered a small loss in the hands of the Western Army before, in order to stabilize the morale of the army, Brown Hun did not say that he was at a disadvantage, but said that their Hun knights had a slight upper hand in that round of competition and slightly suppressed the Western Army. This made these Hun soldiers even more arrogant, and they didn't take these cowardly Jin people seriously.

Now I see that they dare to fight with themselves openly, and they have set up a position, it seems that they are going to fight to the death with themselves, the key is that they seem to be fewer than themselves, what does this mean, look down on them? It's too long to think it's too long, so you have to stretch your neck and let the warriors of the grassland cut it.

Ridicule is ridicule, the fighting quality of the Huns is still good, although they despise the enemy, but they will never despise the enemy, they also know that the lion fights the rabbit, and it also takes all their strength! Only when all the enemies have been turned into corpses can they celebrate with peace of mind! (To be continued.) )
