Chapter 50: Flying the Kite of the Khan of Jieli (4)
"Damn, these Han cavalry are really hell! You can't shoot them! Jieli gritted his teeth and said.
Jieli's lieutenant general didn't have a good way for a while, this group of Han cavalry, they couldn't catch up, they couldn't shoot arrows, and even if they shot, they couldn't shoot to death, this was too cheating. It was the first time that Jieli suffered such a loss, originally the grassland nomads were almost pressed and beaten by the farming peoples of the Central Plains, but now Jieli was actually bullied by a Han Chinese in their best cavalry. Now Jieli has a feeling that he is sorry for his ancestors, and he is very sad.
"Shoot, keep shooting me!" Jieli and Li Junxian both shouted.
It didn't take long for both sides to start shooting at each other again. But the result was obvious, Li Junxian shot directly at the Turks, and shot arrows in the back, and the Turks rushed towards the arrows, and the power of Li Junxian's arrows was maximized. And the Turks had to shoot to be able to shoot the cavalry under Li Junxian's command, but because of the great loss of the power of the hanging arrows, and Li Junxian and they were wearing several layers of silk clothes, the lethality was very limited!
"Khan, it's not good, our war horses can't stand it anymore!" Said the adjutant general.
"What?" Jieli asked in surprise.
"Khan, some of our horses' hooves have begun to fall off. The terrain of the Central Plains does not need our grassland, there is rough ground everywhere, so our horses will be lost due to cracked hooves when we run too much. If we continue to run like this, our horses will probably be injured in their hooves. Once the horses' hooves are injured, then we are in danger. The adjutant admiral.
"Poof!" As if in response to the lieutenant's words, one of the Turks' cavalry horses fell to the ground, which was caused by the keratin on the outside of the horse's hooves falling off, and then the horse's hooves running on the rough ground.
Jieli glanced at Li Junxian's cavalry in front of him, and said fiercely: "Since we are the end of the strong crossbow, and they Han people should also be the end of the strong crossbow." Since our horse's hooves are going to be damaged, most of Li Junxian's little white-faced horse's hooves will also be unlucky. Now it depends on who persists to the end, we have more people than them, even if we fight to consume them! ”
Jieli's method actually seemed feasible, but he didn't know that Li Junxian had already beaten the horseshoe for the war horse under his command, so he was not afraid of the horse's hooves being injured at all. Jieli is probably going to have cups again, which is caused by information asymmetry and asymmetry in science and technology. The Han people currently have better equipment, better tactics, and better horse harness than the Turks, so it is almost certain that the Turks will suffer.
"Shoot!" Li Junxian shouted again, and the Turks fell in response.
Jieli continued to chase for a long time, but he did not wait for Li Junxian's horse's hooves to be damaged, but the non-combat attrition of the Turks continued to increase. The Turks now had to meet not only the archery of Li Junxian's light cavalry, but also the non-combat attrition caused by the damage to the hooves of their horses. This attrition was tragic, and once it flew off the horse's back, it was either dead or wounded. In this case, Li Junxian's cavalry could easily target the Turks who landed on the ground.
"Hey!" Jieli continued to sigh.
At this time, the adjutant general, who had more practical combat experience than Jieli, saw that there were fewer and fewer cavalry around him, and immediately said: "Khan, most of us have fallen for the tricks of the Han people!" You see, we chased and killed Li Junxian, the little white face, for dozens of miles along the way, but how many of us can really kill each other? However, our losses are several times that of theirs, and even now our various attritions have reached 4,000, which is almost the number of those little white-faced people under Li Junxian's command. We've lost so much, but they're probably losing a hundred or two hundred men at most! If this continues, I'm afraid we haven't eliminated each other yet, and we're all going to lose ourselves! ”
Jieli immediately looked around, and the number of his cavalry was much smaller, and he could clearly see that it had decreased. Jieli broke out in a cold sweat, how could he not know that he had fallen for Li Junxian's kite tactics? This tactic was the first of its kind in this era, so it was normal that Jieli Khan did not find out. But now that I found out, Jieli Khan couldn't do stupid things.
"Immediately give the order, and meet the teacher immediately!" Jieli said.
Jieli is worthy of being the lord of a country, and his courage is still very strong. Although Li Junxian killed more than 30,000 of them, Jieli vowed to kill Li Junxian. But now that things are out of the question, don't think about anything, hurry up and join the division, otherwise if you continue to pursue, your own Khan's own soldiers will be consumed here by Li Junxian.
"Khan, Li Junxian, this little white face killed 30,000 of our Turkic warriors!" The adjutant said helplessly.
"Mouthy, retreat quickly!" Jieli said angrily.
"Turkic warriors, return to the division, retreat!"
Although the Turks hated Li Junxian very much, since the khans had already ordered them to go back, they naturally could not disobey. In the steppe people, if he can become a khan, then his authority is very useful. Although it was not without internal struggles for power, it was only when the old khan died. Now Jieli's authority is very powerful, and his subordinates have no choice but to give up pursuing Li Junxian.
"Little white-faced Li Junxian, I'll let you go this time. I have a heart of love and talent, and what I value most in Turkic is a person like you who is both wise and brave, I hope you can seriously consider it! Jieli shouted.
However, it was Li Junxian's arrow that greeted Jieli.
Jieli dodged the arrow and cursed secretly: "Don't be ashamed!" ”
However, since Jieli was already planning to retreat, he would not say anything more, and retreated directly with those Turkic cavalry.
"General Li, Jieli has retreated with the cavalry! Should we go back to Chang'an? After this time, I'm afraid the Turks won't send people again. If they haven't been taught a lesson, then I don't believe that Jieli can still be a khan! Dugu Yanyun looked at Jieli and said.
After Li Junxian heard this, he suddenly asked: "General Dugu, are you interested in making a big vote with me?" ”
"Big?" Dugu Yanyun was puzzled.
"Let's go get Jieli back!"
"Catch Jieli?"
Dugu Yanyun was excited, he didn't expect Li Junxian to be so bold and want to chase Jieli in turn. However, this is not impossible, because the Turkic spirit has been almost exhausted. Even the war horses of the Turks are already at the end of their crossbows. The horseshoe, in particular, is almost all over. Even, because the Turks used the trick of stabbing the horse's buttocks, the physical strength of the war horse was greatly lost. And Li Junxian has a horseshoe to protect the horse's hooves, and he did not use the method of stabbing the horse's butt to quench his thirst, so although the physical consumption of the war horse is not small, it still has an advantage over the Turks in general.
"Good! Let's go! Dugu Yanyun agreed.
