Chapter 78: The Horror Yellow Turban Chief
As most people expected, this was one of the main forces of the three Hun forces.
They came all the way and ransacked the two major county towns and plundered a lot of people. The most important thing is that there are indeed some spineless among the Han people, and in the midst of life and death, they choose to take refuge in the enemy, even if they are barbarians!
This part, organized into groups, is primarily responsible for the management of these captives. After all, the population of the Southern Xiongnu is not very large, and almost all men have to practice martial arts and arrows, and some slaves are always required to undertake trivial chores at home. In the past, it has basically become a common practice to kidnap Han Chinese to become herding slaves or something, and whoever has more herding slaves in the family will be more respected.
Those who could afford to get many slaves were definitely warriors among the Huns. The people on the grassland will always maintain a sense of reverence for the strong, after all, what is implemented here is the absolute law of the jungle.
"King Gu Li, the predetermined meeting place is in front, and beyond that hill is Shan Yu's camp!" A cronie Qianhu came to the commander's side and pointed ahead.
"Haha, I haven't seen my father Khan for a few days, and I don't know what their record is!" The current King of Guli is the son of Subu, and he is eager to meet Subu soon and show him his achievements.
In the Xiongnu, King Guli has always been the son of Shan Yu, in charge of military and administration. This guy can get into this position, but he is not a reckless man. In fact, it can be seen from the captives that Subu almost only left young women, and children who did not exceed the chariot, but this king of Guli took over both men and women, and even allowed Chinese traitors to take refuge. From this point, it is not difficult to see that he already has some basic abilities to control Huaxia, of course, he can only be regarded as the basic of the basics.
The team got closer and closer, and when they saw that they had climbed over the hills, they could see Shan Yu's camp.
But they didn't want to, just as they were approaching the hills, a troop suddenly stood up behind the hills, but it was a bow and arrow unit of the Han army. It's just that the two sides are more than two hundred steps apart. In general, there is simply no such archer unit that can attack at this distance. However, that's the old calendar!
Do you still remember the bow and arrow pulley set that Fang Yun drawn? After the experimentation and refinement of the craftsmen, the first 1,000 pairs of compound bows were created. Limited by technical and technological issues. After that, more than 300 pairs were broken one after another, and at the same time, 100 pairs were added one after another, and there were still 800 compound bows to use.
These compound bows are three-stone strong bows, and if they were afraid before, only a few people could pull them. But with the help of a block of pulleys. A qualified soldier can easily pull, and can shoot twenty arrows in a row without changing color.
For the three-stone strong bow, the distance of two hundred steps is not a problem at all. This is a real long-range firing unit, and its range of attack has reached that of the historical British longbowmen.
But the difference between China and foreign countries is that foreign countries can get ransom by capturing nobles in war, after all, there is no difference between medieval Europe and the Spring and Autumn period of China, and countries are relatives from country to country.
In China, the civil war is all made of flesh and blood, and the foreign war is even more endless. There is no such thing as a ransom at all. The big snake is bitten by the snake instead of dying, and the grass is not removed from the roots, and the spring breeze blows and grows again, which is still very clear to everyone.
Therefore, unlike the longbowmen who were eliminated in the later stage, Fang Yun's strongbow troops were real killing weapons!
Rarely, in the case of the first shot, all the soldiers can even put three arrows on the bowstring. A force of 800 strong archers can fire more than 2,400 arrows in one shot in the first round!
It's a pity that the number can't go up. Otherwise, a strong archer force of 3,000 people suddenly shot out tens of thousands of arrows, which is called a veritable 'rain of arrows'. For now, though. The arrows shot by these 800 people were enough to frighten the Huns.
It was more than two hundred paces away, and the arrows shot out in a projectile, drawing a perfect arc in the sky, and then flew towards their position. Interestingly, the front row. But it was a direct frontal shot, more than 300 arrows, directly at their vanguard.
At that moment, there were at least nearly 1,000 casualties of varying degrees, and the most important thing was that many people fell directly off their horses and were trampled to death by their companions who rushed from behind. Even this concentrated firing caused the entire Hun army to be in chaos.
"Assault!" I don't know where there was a loud shout, and then two cavalry units suddenly came out from both sides of the hill and killed them directly towards their headquarters.
At the same time, the archers directly in front had retreated, and in their place a Han army was coming towards them.
The matter has come to this point, if you haven't thought that the Han tent was captured by the Han army, then King Gu Li and others can be regarded as really stupid. It's just that they never thought that this was a dignified Xiongnu Han tent, how could it be captured so easily by these Han people?
Seeing that the cavalry of the Han people began to move closer to them in a closed way, King Gu Li had to plan for his next move, otherwise the situation would appear passive.
The most important thing is that there is less and less range of movement around you, and if you don't move, you are afraid that the horse will not be able to run. The cavalry that lost its speed was inferior to the infantry, and the Huns knew this even if they were stupid!
"Keep charging and fight your way with me!" There were cavalrymen on the left and right sides, and quite a few of them had already taken down their spears from behind, and it was not difficult to guess from the way they were about to throw that they were weapons for throwing.
Cavalry is enough of a headache, but if a cavalry can attack in a medium and long range while running, it will definitely be a nightmare for all soldiers. Besides, there is not enough space these days, and it is easy to reduce the horse's speed if you make a U-turn. Rather than this, it is better to attack the infantry in front of you head-on, take advantage of the cavalry, and quickly fight a bloody way, which is the safest result.
As for the infantry and prisoners behind them, let them bless themselves! Especially those Han people, after taking refuge in themselves, should also think of the risk of being exterminated by the Han army, right?
The army let go of its speed and slashed straight ahead, the silhouette of the enemy becoming clearer and clearer.
It was a heavily armored unit, each with a large knife in their hands, and the only weakness should be the head, no helmet and only a yellow turban. King Gu Li couldn't even figure it out, since he had the money to change them into armor, why didn't he change his helmet as well, obviously his head needed more protection than his body......
The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and King Gu Li was even ready to kill a few Han Chinese.
But he didn't want the other party to still maintain the formation, and there were obviously a few people, but he calmly raised the big sword in his hand and faced their cavalry troops. In the eyes of King Gu Li, this is simply an act of sending to death.
However, I saw that they seemed to be in no hurry, waving the big knives in their hands. Weapons, armor, bodies and horses, the Hun soldiers only felt that at that moment, everything was cut in half......
As for the infantry of these Han Chinese, they were still so freehand, so relaxed, and further started a new massacre! (To be continued.) )
PS: The Yellow Turban Commander is a LV5 class, but it will be more difficult to advance in the future, and it will require a lot of combat accumulation, which can be regarded as a weakening. Each Yellow Turban Commander is equivalent to a third-rate general, or even a second-rate general, and the 'bloodsucking' talent is inevitably powerful. That is, it is limited by the domination of the protagonist.,So there's no way to recruit a large number of people.。
The second one is sent!
