Section 1545 Asymmetrical Battles (2)
It's just an asymmetrical war!
Almost all witnesses, at this moment, have such a thought in their hearts. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The cavalry of the Han army, like a nimble butterfly, played a death song with speed and accurate shooting.
In just a quarter of an hour, the Linhu people's interception cavalry had completely lost their combat effectiveness.
More than 900 horses fell on the battlefield, and thousands of Linhu cavalry lost their mounts.
What is even more terrifying is that the Han army was unharmed.
"This is simply an adult beating a child...... Chen Xu, who was watching the battle from afar, put down the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, triumphant and full of pride.
At this moment, Chen Xu is like the commander of the Mi Army during the Gulf War, arrogant and invincible!
And the Linhu people completely collapsed.
Because, they found that the opponent they faced was not at the same level as them.
These cavalry of the Han Dynasty are like heavenly soldiers and generals, invincible legions in myths and legends.
They walked with the wind, chanting of death and praising war.
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves, every time it sounds, it will shake the hearts of the Linhu people, and the vibrating bowstrings, like a whisper from hell, will make the hearts of the Linhu people tense every time they pull it open.
"It's over......" The slanted slave looked at his army, his face was like ashes, and he finally understood why the whole grassland was singing that 'the Han cavalry is less than 10,000, and the 10,000 are invincible'.
This army is no longer something that any people with bows can fight!
Their riding skills are better than any nomad, they are real riders!
Their archery skills are incomparable, like art!
What's even more exaggerated is that their tactics are simply incredible!
Even if the oblique slave is unwilling, he can only admit that the Han army has redefined the cavalry and made this branch of the army reach its peak!
And the Xianbei people and the Wuheng people witnessed this moment.
Their mood rushed to the clouds all at once.
From the previous despair, to the hope of victory!
"Warriors! Master Wang has come to save us! At this moment, Qiu Kegu shouted loudly with tears streaming down his face like the king of Kuwait: "The king will soon defeat the Limhu people, and we are victorious!" ”
"Hooray! Long live Han Tianzi! The Xianbei cavalry and the Wuheng cavalry raised their arms and then entered the battle with completely different attitudes.
The Lin Hu cavalry immediately felt the pressure.
In the era of cold weapons, the impact of morale on the army is absolute.
An army with a will to fight and high morale and an army with low morale and emotional breakdowns, those are two different things!
The Linhu cavalry suffered a heavy defeat at once!
In just a few moments, hundreds of Linhu cavalry were killed by the counterattacking Wuheng Xianbei cavalry.
……………………
In just two quarters of an hour, Dan Lin Yu went from heaven to hell.
He looked around, and the whole world was collapsing.
Ahead, the 2,000 cavalry he sent to intercept the Han Dynasty cavalry had completely collapsed.
The soldiers, who were severely defeated by the Han army, scattered and fled in panic, and countless war horses were killed in the entire meadow.
A hundred and ten unfortunate men, wailing in agony on the ground, poor men who had been overturned by their own mounts, and who had been trampled badly by the panicked horses of their allies.
The oblique slave department no longer exists.
In the grasslands, there is no army that can still hold on to fighting after losing more than half of its combat strength.
And the devilish Han cavalry, who did not pay any attention to the collapsed Linhu cavalry, completed the reorganization hundreds of paces away.
The neat queue came with a magnificent momentum.
The knights sang war songs, and the chanting of "The Stone of Graduality" resounded through the grassland.
Although Dan Lin Yu couldn't understand what the Han army was singing, the melodious melody and high chanting made him understand that the Han Dynasty was already celebrating victory!
Victory?
Wait a minute!
The Han Dynasty thought they had won?
No!
Dan Lin clenched his fists, he wouldn't admit defeat!
"These Han Dynasty people can only shoot from a distance, not close combat!" Dan Lin looked at the Xianbei and Wuheng people who were entangled by him, and he shouted loudly at his army: "We are more than three times more numerous than the Han Dynasty army!" Even if three for one, it will be the Han Dynasty that will fail! ”
Trying to boost morale and restore the morale and confidence of his army, he pointed to the entangled Wuheng cavalry and Xianbei cavalry and said: "You have all seen that as long as we seize the opportunity, we will definitely be able to defeat the Han Dynasty!" ”
The Linhu cavalry finally picked up some confidence, at least, they were not afraid in front of the Xianbei and Wuheng people.
Unfortunately, the confidence of the Linhu cavalry soon collapsed completely.
Because, behind them, billowing smoke was burning.
Hundreds of Han cavalry, on the flanks of the Linhu people, constantly attacked the homes of the Linhu people with rockets.
This kind of rocket made of whale oil was constantly scattered on the dome of the Linhu people and all kinds of grass and wood, and immediately set these places on fire.
The fire soon spread, and there was a panic in the camp of the Linhu tribe.
"It's time to give them the final blow!" Seeing this, Chen Xu waved his hand and said.
So, as the general flag of the Han army pointed, thousands of horsemen thundered and swept like a storm.
At the same time, Zhang Gudu's department also encountered the main force of Lin Hu who surrounded and entangled the Wuheng people and the Xianbei people.
Accurate archery skills and superb riding skills immediately made Dan Lin Yu feel despair!
In addition, the lair was attacked, and it was chaos.
Dan Lin Yu could only choose to lead his troops to retreat, but now it was the turn of Wuheng and Xianbei people not to agree.
In the previous battle, the Wuheng and Xianbei people, who had suffered heavy losses, now urgently needed combat exploits and heads to make up for their losses.
They entangled the main force of the Linhu cavalry and did not let it break.
With the Zhang Gudu Division, let the Lin Hu cavalry feel what hell is?
A quarter of an hour later, the main force of the Han army arrived, and the Linhu cavalry fell into complete despair.
Dan Lin looked back at the burning camp and the panicked tribesmen.
Then he looked at the screaming and fleeing soldiers and the collapsed nobles, and he stared blankly at the world.
He couldn't understand why the two Han armies before and after performed so differently?
Obviously, the previous Han army, although well-equipped, was not invincible, and it could even be said that there was every hope of defeating.
But the army behind ......
But it was more powerful than he could have imagined.
Their superb archery skills and perfect riding skills seem to be comparable to the Hun ace he has ever seen - the Condor Archer!
A whole cavalry made up entirely of condor archers!
Even the Hun Empire in its heyday, the invincible army under Lao Shangdan Yu had it!
What is even more terrifying is that the tactics of these Han Dynasty cavalry are extremely vicious.
If you can shoot a horse, you can't shoot a man!
This is a vicious choice that makes the Linhu people completely desperate!
Having lost their horses, the Linhu people are like a lamb to the slaughter.
There is no choice but to wait for death!
"King, let's run!" The oblique slave cried and led people to run in front of Dan Linyu: "If you don't run, it's too late!" You are the last prince of the Danlin people and the last heir of the right Tu Lu! You can't die here! ”
"Run?" Dan Lin laughed: "Heaven and earth are so big, where can this king go?" ”
Now, his tribe is screaming in flames and chaos.
His army, crumbling in despair and helplessness.
And the main force of the Han Dynasty has also galloped in.
The demise of the Linhu tribe is today!
Even if he could run away, where would he go?
The ancestral land of Munan is now under the control of the Han Dynasty, and the nomadic land of Nanchi can no longer be returned.
Go to Changlin or go to the worm?
To be a minion in these tribes?
Dan Lin is not willing to die of stinging!
He is the last prince of the Danlin people, the descendant of the spirits in the forest, and the righteous brother of Yin Zhixian, the adopted son of the Xiongnu Youxian King.
"Then let's descend......" The oblique slave said: "The slave heard that the bastard, and that bastard, is now mixing very well in Longcheng, and the slave of Lou Fu is also doing well in the Han Dynasty, with the status of the king, even if he surrenders, the emperor of the Han Dynasty must at least be a marquis!" Perhaps, with the support of the Han Dynasty, the king can become a single ......"
"Hahaha......" Dan Lin stinged up to the sky and roared.
Surrender?
This is indeed a wonderful temptation!
The people who draw the bow never shy away from surrendering, and even take pride in serving the strong.
But......
He can't fall!
He is the adopted son of King Youxian, the righteous brother of Yin Zhixian, and is in the top ten of the list of hatred lists of emperors of the Han Dynasty!
Even if the people of the Han Dynasty forget it for a while, one day, someone will tell them - who is Dan Linzhen?
At that time, new hatred and old hatred, settle the ledger together, that sour......
"Only King Linhu who died in battle...... There is no surrender of King Linhu! Dan Lin said to the slanted slave: "King Zhao Wuling of the Han Dynasty can't let the great Danlin people bend their knees and surrender, and the current Han Dynasty people can't do it!" ”
He turned his head to the slanted slave and said, "It's you, my loyal slave, you go!" Take people away, go to the north of the curtain and tell the fox deer and Juli Lake, there are no 400,000 iron horses, don't cross the bow and Lu Shui! Absolutely not! ”
Although Dan Lin still can't understand why the difference between the two Han armies before and after is so big.
But he already understood that the strength of the cavalry of the Han Dynasty was not blown out.
This army, compared to the army of the people who draw the bow, is not a class at all.
There is a huge generation gap between the two not only in terms of equipment and tactics.
Even in terms of technique and tactics, there is a huge gap!
The cavalry of the Northern Huns was less than 400,000, and they rashly crossed the bow and Lushui, which was no different from sending them to death!
The cavalry of the Han Dynasty will easily beat the army of the Northern Xiongnu into slag!
Just like how easily they wiped out the Linhu tribe today.
And the Northern Xiongnu are now the last hope of the entire people who draw the bow.
If they fail, the people who draw the bow will cease to exist.
The Han Dynasty will rule the world until the end of time!
………………………………
In the spring of the eighth year of Yuande, February has been hail (the sixth day of the first month) in the afternoon at three o'clock (about 16 o'clock).
The last Linhu king, Dan Lin, died in the upper reaches of the Xiliao River.
The remnants of just over 2,000 men fled the battlefield, and the rest died or surrendered.
Lin Hu, this ancient tribe, has finally come to an end.
When the news came out, Munan was terrified, and countless people were terrified and their necks were cold.
…………………………………………
On the other side, Zhidu commanded the loyal army, the Loufu army and some of the servants and cavalry of the Great Wall, about 20,000 horsemen, all the way from Shunde to Nanchi.
It took ten days to complete an armed parade.
Along the way, countless tribes eat pulp pots to welcome the king.
The tribes, large and small, cried and shouted, wanting to join the warm embrace of their father in the Han Dynasty.
Zhidu was as good as a stream, and while sending people to settle these Guiyi tribes near the Great Wall, he continued to march.
The other tribes that were unwilling to surrender were like frightened birds, and they retreated in an instant.
More than 3,000 cavalry of the Zhidu Division, under the leadership of Zhao Lian, the commander of the cavalry, arrived in the territory of Erenhot in the spring of the eighth year of Yuande in February (11th), and immediately seized the most important strategic place here - the salt lake under the guidance of Lou Furen.
In fact, the Mongolian name of Erenhot in later generations was Eringdabu Sannaoer, which means colorful salt lake.
At this time, salt is an absolutely indispensable and important resource for all parts of the grassland.
Neither man nor animal can live without salt.
Without salt, all the tribes would have to wait for death.
This place is the most important natural salt pond in the north of the south of the curtain and the west of the Xilin Gol grassland.
It is the main source of salt for all parts of the country.
After occupying this place, the Han army controlled the entire Xilin Gol grassland and the northern Munan.
At the same time, the news of the defeat of the Linhu tribe also spread throughout the southern part of the country.
Within a day, a large tribe with a population of more than 40,000 was wiped out in front of the Han army.
This incident deeply shocked the nobles of all the tribes.
It deepened the fear of the Han dynasty among the ministries.
Even the most stubborn nomads have to think about their future and survival.
For the people who draw the bow, it is never shameful to submit and serve the strong.
If it weren't for the Han family's forced policy of organizing households and uniting the people, I'm afraid that by now, most of the tribes would have knelt down.
Even the toughest creep can only obey his inner instinct of submission to the strong.
Today, in the face of the big question of life and death, more people's knots continue to crumble.
The Changlin tribe immediately fell into a storm.
Every day, aristocrats with their armies and herdsmen fled the control of Changlin Dangtu.
In just seven days, thousands of people from the Changlin tribe fled.
The rest of the people are also panicking.
Many people, shouting 'swear to the king' in front of them, are quietly planning to flee and return to Han.
This made Changlin Dangtu angry and helpless.
After all, the Changlin tribe has too little heritage.
It is simply impossible to unite people at such a critical moment.
What's even more terrifying is that the nobles below are all secretly planning to kill Changlin as a slaughterer and take his head to the Han Dynasty to receive a reward.
Under the crisis, Changlin Dangtu had to choose to go north to join the Worms, even though he actually hated the Worms very, very much.
At this time, the news of the Han army's control of the salt lake came, and when Changlin Dangtu heard the news, he suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
He understood that now, whether it was him, or the worms, or anyone else who was unwilling to submit to the Han Dynasty, they had to fight.
Because, without salt, everyone would have to die!
