A shallow anti-horse fence did not give everyone much sense of security. At night, Hu cavalry began to haunt, and the horse's hooves suddenly sounded, and one after another was whistles.

"It's okay, if the Hu people had enough troops, they would have already attacked the defense horse fence, they are just testing our hypocrisy, even if they want to attack, they will choose to attack tomorrow morning." Li Chongjiu persuaded the businessmen like this, and they were a little relieved. The crowd barely calmed down the army.

Later, when the Hu people saw that there was no movement in the tent, they became emboldened and began to approach the tent and throw arrows far away, and kept throwing torches into it. It wasn't until after the horse fence that a row of arrows was sparsely fired, and the Hu people retreated slightly, and soon the Hu cavalry repeated and continued to harass.

When it was almost dawn, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded, and everyone was not sleeping soundly, and they were all awakened in the middle of the night, and the merchants and men in the caravan all got up, folded their hands, and chanted the gods and Buddhas in their mouths.

In the northwest direction, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and it seemed that a large force of cavalry was coming at dawn when the sky was about to dawn. The officers and soldiers who were on vigil and the dart masters all picked up bows, arrows, knives and guns and stared at the west. At this time, the sound of the bowstring suddenly sounded, and the sound of people falling from their horses was heard in the hazy night, as if someone was fighting, and all the officers and soldiers and merchants were overjoyed.

"It's your own people!"

Wang Mahan, Ying Hefu led 600 cavalry in Huaihuang Town, and 400 Xi cavalry arrived, and as soon as the 1,000 reinforcements arrived, all the caravans were demoralized. And the Turkic cavalry gathered around, seeing this situation is also uncertain, and at this time the Han cavalry suddenly turned to kill them, taking the initiative to seek a decisive battle, Hu cavalry hesitated for a while, and none of them dared to step forward to meet the battle, all of them retreated on all sides.

Inghefer took advantage of the momentum to pursue, just killed a dozen people, ran a few miles, and heard the horn whining in the distance of the grassland, and saw a large force of cavalry appear in the distance, like a black cloud. Seeing this scene, Inghefer and the others hurriedly collected their troops and retreated back to the formation with the cavalry.

"Junhou, it's the wolf flag of the Hun Ministry!" Inghefu reported loudly to Li Chongjiu.

Li Chongjiu didn't have a trace of panic, he immediately pulled out his sword and said, "Cover the caravan, set up a formation and prepare for battle!" ”

"Xiao Jiu, what kind of formation do you use?" Li Hu asked at the moment.

Li Chongjiu glanced back and asked Ying Hefu, "What do you think?" ”

Ying He said: "Cloth the crescent array. ”

While speaking, Li Chongjiu ordered more than 2,000 homeless people to be in one place with the caravan and retreat into the horse fence, and the merchants and men all took up bows and arrows to protect themselves. And Li Chongjiu led the county soldiers, and the cavalry of the dart division marched forward together, and the cavalry of Ying Hefu and Wang Mahan also retreated together, and the two sides met together.

At present, Ying Hefu commands the army and horses to line up, and in terms of arranging troops, this is not a traverser's own skill, Li Chongjiu can only watch from the sidelines at the moment. At this time, Inghefu deployed his three regiments of 600 cavalry on the left flank, led by Wang Mahan, while the 400 cavalry of the Xi tribe and the 200 ironclad cavalry of Li Chongjiu were deployed on the right flank, led by Eto.

In the center, there were two regiments of 400 county soldiers, and the Li Family Dart Bureau had 500 dart divisions, and the dart divisions of the Li Family Dart Bureau were not as good as the Turkic cavalry in the cavalry battle, so they automatically dismounted as infantry formations. The central government is dominated by Li Hu and Su Su. Lee Chong-gu and Ing-Fer are in the rear dispatch.

Seeing that the line of Inghefu was a two-wing cavalry, a lineup of central infantry. Li Chongjiu couldn't help but be a little worried about whether his cavalry would be the opponent of the Turkic cavalry. After all, the last time they defeated the Aqiu Department and the Khitans, their own victory was based on a trick or a surprise sneak attack. And this time it was a dignified field battle, which was a real strength match.

Ying Hefu laughed when he heard this, and said: "Don't worry, we haven't been lazy in the past six months. ”

Li Chongjiu looked at the cavalry on the left and right flanks, all of them were in good spirits, the three regiments on the left flank were the cavalry of the government army stationed in Huaihuang Town, which was a mixture of Xi and Han people, all of them were equipped with leather armor, and even the war horses were protected, and all the cavalry were riding two horses, so they didn't have to worry about horsepower, and they used a nine-bucket bow and iron arrows, in addition to the Sui knife, each horse was also equipped with a small leather shield.

Seeing this, Li Chongjiu nodded, and remembered that such a full moon array is generally a tactic for the central breakthrough, but although there are many infantry troops in his center, if the combat effectiveness, the soldiers of the two regiments and counties are all newly recruited, not to mention the dart division of the Li Family Dart Bureau, and the combat effectiveness is slightly better than those guys and homeless people in the caravan.

In this way, not to mention the implementation of the central government's method of making a breakthrough, it is a great blessing to be able to insist that the central government will not be broken through. After Li Chongjiu asked Ying Hefu this question, a smug smile appeared on the other party's face, obviously there was some treacherous plan.

At this time, with the arrival of the Hun tribe, the various rangers also gathered, and then the leaders of five or six tribes came together under the banner of the Jin, and the two sides seemed to bargain, as if they were in a big dispute over the division of the spoils and who led the main attack of the army, and they could not hold each other. This made the Sui army, which had finished the formation early, very bored.

The Sui army hoped that the other party would finally eliminate the chance of a decisive battle because of the lack of spoils, but for Li Chongjiu and Ying Hefu, they hoped that this battle would be used to hone their soldiers.

The Turkic dispute lasted until late afternoon, and the Han army even used breakfast and lunch. Just when everyone thought it would drag on until nightfall, the Turks seemed to have finally reached an agreement. The cavalry of five or six different tribes gathered under the banner of Hun and began to set up a formation.

From a distance, the strength of the Turks should be around 25,600 men, and the cavalry of the Hun tribe obviously occupies half of it.

At this time, the sun had gradually sunk in the west, leaving only the sunset still shining on the sky above the grassland, and unlike the crescent moon formation of the Sui army, the Turks laid out a bull horn array, and the cavalry on both wings broke forward, and the cavalry on both wings were warriors of the Hun tribe, and in the center were mixed cavalry of five or six other tribes.

Li Chongjiu immediately understood Ying Hefu's thoughts, and all along, the Hu people thought that the Han army was strong in infantry and weak in cavalry, so if the Sui army used the crescent moon formation, the Hu people were outflanked on both wings, and after defeating the cavalry on the left and right flanks of the Sui army, they would then attack the infantry in the center on three sides. Reminiscent of the Battle of Cannae in history, Hannibal also defeated the elite Roman legions.

However, this time the truth was the opposite, Li Chongjiu's command happened to have strong cavalry and weak infantry. And Inghefer deliberately showed strength and weakness, that is, he planned to fight a decisive battle with cavalry on the left and right flanks of the two armies.
