Chapter 1214: Victory in the First Battle
"Qi Yu Da Danyu, the Han general Liu Yin led an army of 230,000 to cross the river to the north, and has now killed Julu, which is not far from the letter. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "The Xianbei Sentinel Cavalry Detective heard the movement of Liu Yin's army and urgently reported to Murong Shigui.
It is not difficult to find out if there is news about Liu Yin's army, and the more than 200,000 troops are spreading out, and the momentum is shocking, and it is impossible to hide it from people.
Murong Shegui was not surprised at all, perhaps he was looking forward to Liu Yin's arrival, the war was in full swing in Jizhou, and the Ji Han court did not send troops to reinforce it, so it could be regarded as a strange thing.
However, Ji Han's army is still far away on the Huai River, and it is obviously not an overnight thing to transfer north to Jizhou in a hurry, originally Murong Shegui thought that it would take a month for the Han army to arrive, but he didn't expect that the Han army only took half a month to kill, and the speed was still incredible.
You must know that more than half of the Han army is infantry, cavalry only accounts for a small part, the infantry's marching speed is relatively slow, and it can't be compared with cavalry at all, cavalry can do hundreds of miles a day, but no matter how fast the infantry is, it can only maintain the progress of dozens of miles a day, and the difference between the two is the difference between cloud and mud.
didn't expect Liu Yin's Han army to come so quickly, which was completely unexpected by everyone.
Rao is like this, Murong Shegui is not surprised at all, the sooner Liu Yin arrives, the happier Murong Shegui becomes, waiting for this opportunity to take revenge Murong Shegui has been waiting for three years, today he can finally fulfill his wish, and it is too late for Murong Shegui to be happy.
Choosing Xindu as the main battlefield, Murong Shegui was carefully considered, this time the people and horses brought by Murong Shegui are all cavalry, and cavalry combat, the most ideal battlefield is the plain area, Xindu here is low-lying and flat, as far as the eye can see, it is very suitable for use as a battlefield.
Xindu is the state city of Jizhou, and there is an army of the Han army in the city, Murong Shigui believes that Liu Yin will not die without help, as long as Liu Yin dares to come to Xindu, then his certainty of success will be doubled.
This depression will surely become Liu Yin's burial place.
Murong Shegui showed a sly smile, his previous repeated attacks on Xindu City retained his strength, otherwise with a force of more than ten to one compared with the enemy and me, he would not be able to take a small Xindu City, Murong Shegui still has the face to stay in Jizhou, and go back to the grassland as soon as possible.
The reason why he besieged the city of Xindu but did not attack, attacked but did not overcome, there was only one purpose, to introduce Liu Yin to his designated position, this move is called "please enter the urn", they all say that Hu people are brave and unscrupulous, that is just a prejudice, how can a big man like Murong Shegui have only muscle strength?
Murong Shegui looked around at the generals under his tent, and said in a deep voice: "Who can be the vanguard and fight this first battle with the Han people?" ”
Murong Tan, who was eight feet tall and looked like a black tower, stood up proudly and said, "The last general is willing to go." "Murong Tan is Murong Shegui's nephew, his body is like an ox, his strength is endless, and he is known as one of the top ten warriors of the grassland.
"Murong Tan, I order you to lead 20,000 elite horsemen to Julu, give Liu Yin a dismount, frustrate the spirit of the Han people, and let them know how powerful our Murong clan is. Remember, Xu Sheng is not allowed to lose, it has broken the momentum of our army, and Hugh blames the ruthlessness of the clan rules! "Murong Shigui is solemn and authentic.
Murong Tan pressed his hand to his chest, bent down and saluted Murong Shegui: "Obey Da Dan Yu's order, and the final general will take Liu Yin's head back." ”
Murong Shegui smiled and didn't speak, Murong Tan was young and frivolous, how could he know how Liu Yin's head could be so easy to take, but this time, Murong Shegui didn't have the slightest doubt about winning a small victory. Although Murong Nai died in Jizhou three years ago along with 70,000 cavalry, Murong Shi later learned that it was completely caused by being trapped in the terrain, and no matter how elite the cavalry fell into the quagmire, it was destined to be useless.
After Murong Tan was ordered, he immediately ordered 20,000 elite horsemen, left the Xianbei camp, and galloped south.
In the vanguard of the Han army, it was Luo Shang of the Tiger Cavalry Army, and the general of the other armies of the Han Army did not move, only the Tiger Cavalry Army, which was replaced by the Protector, and the original Protector was Fu, and now he has been transferred to the Tiger Guard Army of the Forbidden Army, shouldering the heavy responsibility of defending the palace.
Luo Shang took over the famous Tiger Cavalry Army, which invisibly also brought him a lot of pressure, the Tiger Cavalry Army is good at fighting vanguards, this time is no exception, just marched to Pingxiang, and the Xianbei Army to the south is a narrow road to meet.
It was a skirmish, with little preparation on both sides, and they collided head-on in a swift motion, sending sparks flying in all directions.
Murong Tan was arrogant and wanton, with 20,000 cavalry is roaring, the Xianbei people basically did not pay attention to any formation, and completely relied on their personal ability to break through alone, once the chisel was interspersed with the opponent's defense line, the next battle would become extremely easy.
When he saw a Han army on the horizon coming out, Murong Tan was extremely excited, and led the Xianbei cavalry to launch a charge, wanting to catch the Han army by surprise.
But the formation of the Tiger Cavalry is so tight, even in the march, it can completely maintain the same formation, and with a slight change, it will conjure up a serious battle formation of eight hundred.
The distance within the visual range is not too long for the cavalry, if the horse gallops, it will come in an instant, Murong Tan seems to be full of confidence, thinking that with this round of impact, he can penetrate the formation of the Han army, but he did not expect that this kick not only did not break anything, but kicked it to the iron plate.
Murong Tan was greeted by a fierce rain of arrows, and the Han army archers and cavalry soon entered a state of battle, and thousands of arrows flew together, and countless Xianbei cavalry were hit by arrows one after another and fell off their horses. The Xianbei cavalry was originally arrogant and empty-eyed, but when they suffered this head-on blow, like a basin of cold water, everyone was dumbfounded.
Just when the momentum of the Xianbei cavalry was weakened, the Han cavalry rushed up from both wings, and the Han army was neatly lined up and well organized, like a sharp knife, suddenly inserted into the heart of the enemy.
The attack of the Han army was swift and powerful, the Xianbei cavalry was caught off guard, and immediately summoned a comprehensive suppression, so that they could not even breathe, and soon, the Xianbei cavalry began to collapse, many people turned around and fled, and the entire Xianbei army was self-colliding, trampling on each other, and chaotic. Under the strong and powerful attack of the Han cavalry, the Xianbei cavalry collapsed on the whole line, and the defeat was decided.
No one would have thought that the contest between the two sides would kick off like this.
