Chapter 818: Burning Grain
Finally, reason prevailed over courage, and in the face of the increasingly persecuted iron cavalry of the Chen army, the Turks finally understood. In the dark night, the Turks, who abandoned their horses and fought with bows, could not compete with the Chen cavalry that killed like a landslide and the ground cracked.
In the dark night, the Turks couldn't see how many of the unstoppable, tidal iron cavalry torrent fell to the bottom, only felt that the camp was full of Chen Jun's black armor and banners. The bravest of the wolf soldiers were still desperately resisting, but the rest of the Turkic soldiers had begun to crumble.
The Turkic Khanate had a large number of generals, dismounted for the people, and mounted for the soldiers, but in fact, the huge Turkic soldiers were also divided into three categories. One of them is the detachment, which is the most elite and brave soldiers and horses of the Turks, and the cornerstone of the Turks. These so-called wolf soldiers were also the bodyguards of the Turkic Khanate, and these people were generally the cornerstone of the army in the Turkic Khanate, not only serving as the Khan's bodyguard, but also serving as the middle and lower rank officers of the tribe during wartime.
However, the Turkic army has a large number of soldiers, and although it is an elite soldier, it is limited in number, and the real most in the Turkic army is the one who controls the strings. The so-called people who control the strings are actually the auxiliary soldiers and horses of the Turkic vassal tribes. For example, the soldiers and horses of the Ganelo army led by the assassin are the ones who control the strings. Of the 400,000 Turkic armies, the majority were those who controlled the strings. These people were originally vassal tribes, and they were usually inferior to the Turks in the steppe. When there is a war, it is also a low-class existence. Similarly, when it comes to combat effectiveness, the men who control the majority of the troops are actually the weakest part of the entire Turkic army.
In addition to the two major parts of the wolf soldier and the string controller. There was also a part of the Turkic army, which accounted for nearly half of the entire army, and it was Tuoqi. The so-called Tuo. In fact, it is the Hu people in the eyes of the Turks. In the eyes of the Han Chinese, the Turks are the Hu people, but in the eyes of the Turks, such as the Sogdians with the surname Zhaowu Jiu in the Western Regions, are the Hu people. The Zhaowu surnames of the Western Regions, who had long been subjugated by the Western Turks, would draw elite soldiers from various countries to form the Hu Department at the time of each battle.
This huge number of Hu tribes is only slightly worse than the attached wolf soldiers in terms of combat effectiveness, but its combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the vassal tribes. Really counted, Hu Bu is the largest fighting force among the Turkic soldiers. However, the general Ye protects the Hu Department and serves as many Hu generals, but the Hu Department is also the most prominent one in the Turkic army. On the one hand. Tong Yehu needed Zhuhu to help him fight, but on the other hand, Zhuhu's promotion made him have to move the army and constantly change the generals. In the end, he even had to use the children of the Ashina family to divide the ten sets to supervise the Hu Department.
After the Tongye Hu was divided into ten sets, the Hu people had more tight spells on their heads, although Hu Bu complied a lot, but secretly, Hu Bu became more and more dissatisfied with the Turks.
At this time, in the face of the cavalry of the Chen army coming from the mountains, the soldiers surnamed Hu surnamed Zhaowu, who accounted for most of the majority of the Turkic army, went to the Chinese military camp because most of the Hu generals of the tribe went to the Chinese military camp, and there was no one to control at this time, and how could anyone be willing to fight desperately. With a shout, the Hu soldiers, who accounted for most of them, turned around and fled.
Hu's soldiers and horses scattered. The vassal tribes, who were already low in combat effectiveness, immediately dispersed.
At this time, whether it was the desperate and bloody wolf soldiers, or the newly arrived Que Dushe, they all felt that their situation was not good. Chen Cai, who had been killed like a tide, had already broken through the formation in front of him, and most of his 30,000 horses had already run away.
When the army is defeated, and when there is a fierce battle, even a small part of the soldiers and horses begin to disperse, it is a precursor to a great rout. Que Du was sweating profusely, the front army had begun to disperse, and next, the troops and horses under his command were afraid that they were already powerless.
Panicked cries rang out from the positions on the Turkic side: "Run, the Han cavalry is coming!" ”…,
"Don't go back. Kill this set forward. Cut off the retreater," Que Dushe kept chanting with his scimitar, but more and more Turkic soldiers and horses fled backwards from his side, and even he was gradually wrapped in the rear.
"The Silver Wolf Guard is ready to fight!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the little Khan of Yili, who came in a hurry, immediately ordered. Among the Turkic army, only the wolf soldiers were the strongest. Among the wolf soldiers, the golden wolf knights who guarded the Turkic Great Khan were the bravest. The little Khan of Yili was the little khan of the khanate. At this time, it was impossible to mobilize the guards of the Tongye Guard, but he brought all his guard wolf soldiers and silver wolf guard cavalry.
In the face of such a brave Chen cavalry offensive, Yili Little Khan had no choice but to take his own guards on top in a hurry.
Yili Little Khan's idea was good, but unfortunately in the dark night at this time, the soldiers and horses set by Que Du had already broken up in chaos. The silver wolf guards wanted to step forward, but the soldiers and horses set up by Que Du kept rushing to the soldiers, you push me, I will block you, and for a while, the forty or fifty thousand Turkic soldiers on the south side of the camp were like headless flies, huddled together.
At this moment, the Turkic soldiers in front shouted in panic again, and the ironclad torrent of Chen Qi had already flown down.
Nearly 10,000 elite cavalry of the Chen army began to charge again, Luo Shixin and Qin Qiong left and right, like two iron fists slammed in. The military flag hunted in the wind, the black eagle seemed to spread its wings and fly, and under the black eagle military flag, the spear stabbed and the saber waved. The black-clothed and black-armored Chen cavalry held a riding spear and a saber, and rushed into the sea of Turks with no indomitable spirit. This momentum is like a storm, invincible, and destroys everything.
In the face of this huge shock wave, not only the soldiers of the vassal tribes and the Hu tribe turned around and fled, but the most elite attached wolf soldiers, at this time, they were also terrified, trampled into mud by spears, sabers, and iron hooves.
The frightened Turkic soldiers turned and fled, but the orders of the little Khan were like a mountain, and the silver wolf cavalry kicked and beat the belly of the horses, squeezing forward with all their might, pushing them forward. The two streams collided, and the queue became a mess. The soldiers who had fled in front of them kept shouting in horror: "Retreat, let us go!" ”
The one behind was shouting: "Go up, go up, cowards, come forward and kill those Han people to receive the reward!" Chaos is like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, expanding circle after circle.
The autumn wind is bleak, and the war horses neigh.
The night was lit up by the bright blades of the snow, and the roar of the warriors shook the earth. Just when Luo Shixin and Qin Qiong's desperate fierce charge attracted the Turks to move more and more soldiers and horses to the vicinity of the southern camp, Daniel Zhang led 20,000 elite cavalry to the northwest camp.
20,000 elite horsemen, they produce black cloaks and black armor, like the demon cavalry that came out of hell. In the darkness of the night, they are majestic and brave. Along the way, those scattered Turkic soldiers and horses, as soon as they met them, often did not have time to escape, and were overwhelmed by this army like a storm. They were not afraid of swords and spears, and it was not a matter for blood to gush from their torn armor.
Even if they were hit by arrows, they would be swept away casually without any care, that kind of crazy momentum, as if they didn't know what pain was, and why they were afraid of death. 50,000 cavalry dared to break into the Turkic 200,000 battalions, and now the 20,000 cavalry are even more irresistible in the face of the thousands and hundreds of small groups of soldiers and horses that are approaching the Turkic Chinese army.
Under this momentum, the small Turkic troops and horses along the way were often defeated with one blow, and they did not encounter anyone who dared to stay and fight to the death with the Chen army. And Daniel Zhang did not care at all in the face of those scattered Turkic cavalry, as long as he did not block their way, he rushed through.
Intimidated by this madness, all the Turkic cavalry who stood in front of them often scattered and fled as soon as they saw them, and none of them dared to believe that they would stop them. …,
Daniel Zhang was at the forefront of the shock array, and he took the lead, slashing and stabbing along the way, blocking the people. On his side, there were two brothers Zhang Biao and Zhang Meng who had just arrived to join him. Except for the two brothers, Shen Guang, who also infiltrated the camp, was nowhere to be found.
The three brothers of the Zhang family who met and converged were even more imposing, and the three of them jumped into the Turkic array with their horses and guns, holding a lance in one hand and a knife in the other. God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha, and no one can get close to him within the three zhang of the three brothers. In front of their horses' hooves, the fierce Turks seemed to have been transformed from wolves to lambs in a hurry, and fled in all directions, shouting in fear.
The three brothers were not particularly tall and mighty, but at this time, the three Zhang brothers, who were covered in blood and blood, were simply not human beings in the eyes of the Turks, but three angry gods.
The torrent of 20,000 elite horsemen, following their backs, attacked in depth and expanded the results. The enemy died by touching his sword and sword, by touching his spear and spear, and by the Turkic soldiers and horses falling to the ground in patches and pieces, as dense as the wind blowing wheat waves! The dense queue is like a sharp knife, cutting deep into the huge and bulky enemy's body, making the enemy bleed with every movement! In the face of this invincible offensive, the enemy's strong armor and sharp soldiers were all beaten to pieces, one after another seemingly brave Turkic hundred-man team, and the thousand-man team were defeated to the ground, and the scattered soldiers scattered in panic to avoid fleeing for their lives.
Countless spear tips shimmered in the darkness, like sparks on the prairie.
The three brothers of the Zhang family led 20,000 light horsemen all the way to rush wildly, and while the Turks were still paying attention to the fierce impact of the 10,000 death squads of Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin, they had already killed all the way from the south to the northwest, and quickly arrived at the Flying Tiger Camp and found the Turkic grain and grass camp.
The Turkic food and grass camp was in a small valley, and a small stream in front of it was a natural obstacle. There are also many horses and deer feet all around, and even a lot of Diao Dou arrow towers have been set up, and the whole valley is a village of its own, and the defense is tight, which is not the same as the Turkic camp.
However, Daniel Zhang came suddenly, and although the Turkic guards in the valley also strengthened their defenses, they never thought that there would really be Han cavalry who could break into the 200,000 Turkic camp to attack his grain and grass camp. For a while, he only hurriedly gathered less than 5,000 men to guard the village. (To be continued.)
