Chapter 409: Iron Cavalry War Eagle Army
Lu Yi frowned, the strength of the Huns was really extraordinary, with the absolute advantage of 3,000 people, more than 300 cavalry were still sacrificed, if you encounter a large force of Hun cavalry, what will be the consequences.
The momentum of 3,000 cavalry, it is really difficult to hide from the Huns who have elite scouts on the battlefield, Lu Yi left Zhenlin less than a day, and 3,000 Huns appeared in Lu Yi's field of vision, Lu Yi's scouts are not worth mentioning in the eyes of the elite Hun cavalry, and Lu Yi is difficult to capture the traces of the Huns.
Although the Huns were scattered, Lu Yi knew how strong the Huns on the war horses were, and he didn't expect to encounter the main force of the Huns' brigade on the second day of the army.
"Kill!" Without too many words, the commanders of the two sides gave an order, and the cavalry Huo Ran dispatched.
There were no rumbling war drums, only the sound of horses' hooves, and from a distance, the entire battlefield seemed to be covered with a layer of smoke.
There are constantly cavalry being knocked off the horse, and the iron cavalry rolling behind saw the robe fall to the ground, and resolutely drove the war horse to kill forward, in such a battlefield, the fall of the war horse is equivalent to death, although the Huns left the steppe, but the riding did not fall.
Compared with the sparse arrow rain of the state army, the arrow rain of the Hun cavalry was dense and full of lethality, and the Hun cavalry was full of equestrian masters, and it was easy to avoid the arrow rain of the Han people.
Lu Yi's expression was solemn, holding a big knife, after giving the order, he led the guards to the battlefield, a rain of arrows, more than 200 cavalry of the state army slept underground, Lu Yi was sad and indignant, but also helpless, the Huns were able to shoot arrows on the horses, which was a weakness of the Bingzhou army, and only hoped that after getting close to the Huns, they could gain the upper hand with the sophisticated weapons in their hands.
After a sprint, Lu Yi found that there were only 80 people left in the 100 guards around him, and only about 2,000 of the more than 2,600 cavalry remained, and the battlefield was in a mess, the corpses of the horses and soldiers were lying in all directions, and the Huns also paid the price of nearly 500 people.
Suddenly, Lu Yi realized that the Huns were so brave, but the glory in his bones made him firmly believe that the Huns were vulnerable, and the heavenly power of the Han Dynasty could not be blasphemed in the slightest.
In this battle, the sky was dark, and the sun and moon were dark.
A Han cavalryman was knocked off his horse, and with his flesh and blood, he stubbornly moved forward to block the Hun cavalry, creating opportunities for his companions behind him.
The battlefield, which was originally quite densely populated, gradually became sparse after two hours of fighting.
Lu Yi stretched out his hand to dry the blood on his face, and there were only fifty people left in the continuous rush, and everyone was more or less injured.
At this time, there was a cavalry of about five hundred in the rear of the Huns, all of them were good horses, and what was even more rare was that these cavalrymen were wearing leather armor, although they could only cover important parts of the body, but Lu Yi was sure that this was the most elite cavalry of the Huns, especially the weapons in the hands of this cavalry, which were not inferior to the Han army.
When he saw this team, Lu Yi's face instantly turned pale, the banner fluttering among the five hundred cavalry was Shan Yu's personal guards, for this team, Lu Yi had always heard of it, each cavalry was the elite selected by various tribes, with superb equestrian skills and strong combat effectiveness.
"General, let's retreat!" The adjutant general saw that a team of Huns suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and he stepped forward to persuade him.
Lu Yi's face showed a wry smile, after two hours of fierce fighting, he was already sleepy and tired, and he really led the soldiers to retreat as the adjutant general said, and the loss of troops was not something that the Han army could bear.
"It's General Lu Yi in front, Da Shan Yu has heard of you a long time ago, and you are really a fierce general!" A man dressed as a Xiongnu nobleman walked out of the ranks of the Xiongnu and said loudly.
Lu Yi was depressed, it turned out that just out of Zhenlin, he was targeted by the Xiongnu's Shan Yu, and sent the most elite Eagle Army, at this time there were only more than 1,000 cavalry behind him, and the Hun cavalry paid a greater price.
"Hmph, if you want to fight, you will fight, where is the nonsense!" Lu Yi said loudly.
The Hun generals were not angry, they still had an indifferent look on their faces, looking at the Han army opposite, giving people the feeling that a hunter was staring at his prey, "General Lu and our army have been fighting for a long time, if they send troops to win at this time, I am afraid that people will laugh at it, I am willing to gamble with the general, I don't know if General Lu dares to take it!" β
"Bet on what?"
The Xiongnu general said: "Our army sent 200 people, the Han army sent 200 people, the two sides fought, if the Han army wins, our army will not be embarrassed, let General Lu leave, if our army is lucky to win, please General Lu and me to go on a trip." β
Lu Yi has been calculating for a long time, and now the Han army has only more than 1,000 people, the Hun cavalry on the opposite side adds up to more than 1,500 people, the five hundred Hun cavalry is the most elite Eagle Army, their own side is already sleepy and lacking horses, there is no chance of winning, take this gamble, there is still a little buffer room, if the two hundred cavalry can not defeat the Eagle Army, the remaining Han cavalry has also rested, and there is still a chance of escaping.
"Okay, I promise!" Lu Yi said loudly.
"General Lu is really a happy person!" The Hun general Daxiao said, and immediately rushed back to his own camp to select the elite of the army.
Lu Yi's face was gloomy, and he slowly rode his horse in the middle of the team, and the two hundred cavalry sent to fight with the Hun Eagle Army definitely had no reason to survive, he felt dull in his chest, and personally sent a robe that trusted him to the tiger's mouth, and he felt that his heart was dripping blood.
"General, send me." "General, let me go, whoever robs me, I will fight with him." "General, what are those Huns, let me go."
Lu Yi could no longer hold back the tears in his eyes, "Brothers, I, Lu Yi, am sorry for you and brought you to death, if there is an afterlife, we will still be brothers!" β
"General......" Many soldiers also wailed and cried.
When a soldier chooses to be a soldier, he must have the consciousness of a horse leather shroud, and all the soldiers have no resentment about anything.
Under Lu Yi's deliberate delay, it took half an hour to select two hundred cavalry.
The commanders of the two sides gave an order, and the four hundred cavalry began to fight, the Han army was brave, and the Eagle army was the elite of the single man.
The Eagle Army is worthy of being elite, every cavalry can be called brave, just one face, more than 50 Han cavalry fell off their horses, and the loss of the Eagle Army was only a dozen.
When there were only more than 20 Han cavalry left on the battlefield, Lu Yi had already secretly ordered the soldiers to prepare for retreat, and the bravery of the Eagle Army exceeded the expectations of all Han generals, and the death of more than 170 cavalrymen was exchanged for the death and wounding of more than 80 opponents.
The faces of the Xiongnu generals showed a happy look, and they fought with the Han army head-on, defeating it openly, and the fear of the Han army in the hearts of the Xiongnu soldiers will be minimized, which is also the intention of Da Danyu, as for the Han cavalry in front of them, they will sleep under this land.
When a Han cavalry fell from his horse, a discordant voice suddenly sounded on the field, "Could it be that the Huns have always been so despicable, what two hundred people fighting, bullshit!" β
I don't know when, a group of Han cavalry with a number of about 300 appeared on the left side of Lu Yi, the first general was more than eight feet tall, and a long knife in his hand, in the afterglow of the setting sun, eye-catching, not ordinary at first glance.
The person who came was Huaxiong's department, although there were only three hundred people, from the appearance to the present, except for the sound of horses' hooves, there was no noise, looking at the eyes of the Hun cavalry and the previous Eagle Army looked at the state army, careful observation, you can find that these cavalry have blood stains on their bodies, obviously after a battle.
Seeing the banner behind the general, Lu Yi's body was shocked, and his face was happy, Xiliang Army!
The Huns had a good strategy, making dumplings for LΓΌ Yi's 3,000 cavalry, but ignoring the other cavalry on the battlefield.
The Hun generals are no longer bright, obviously he also knows about the Xiliang Army, and the Xiliang Army came to the battlefield, which means that the Hun cavalry on the periphery has been eliminated, but he has no idea.
Hua Xiong snorted coldly, turned the iron long knife horizontally, and said loudly: "Since you Huns like to play soldier battles, today I want to see how the Hun cavalry was defeated." β
Hearing Hua Xiong's extremely arrogant words, the Xiongnu generals were also furious, the soldiers he led were the most elite eagle army under his tent, how could they be insulted like this, and they would immediately wave their troops to cover up and kill.
"My lord, there are 500 cavalry of the Han army on the right, and the 500 cavalry we ambushed were killed and retreated by the Han army." The scout hurried to the side of the Hun general and whispered.
When the Xiongnu general heard this, he kept scolding in Xiongnu language, pulled the scout over, and said angrily: "How many Han cavalry are there?" weishenme didn't find it before? β
The scout's face turned red, and he tried to say: "The Han cavalry killed all the scouts sent by our army, and the villain also escaped by luck. β
Seeing the blood stains on the scout's body, the Hun generals suddenly realized that the Huns, who still had an absolute advantage, had fallen behind, and maybe there would be a hard battle next.
The Han cavalry in front of him is the Xiliang Army, and it is rumored to be a miraculous skill on the grassland, and the Huns have naturally heard of it.
"Okay, how many people are sent by both sides?" The Hun generals thought for a long time and agreed.
Hua Xiong daxiao said: "Bet on the three hundred cavalry of the Eagle Army!" If you win, the Han army will not be embarrassed, let you wait to leave, if you lose, hum, just wait to die. β
When the same bet was made, the Hun generals felt unprecedentedly heartbroken.
Lu Yi's face gradually returned to calm, the Eagle Army of the Huns, the Xiliang Army appeared here at the same time, what does it mean, he is also a battlefield general, after a little thought, he understood the seriousness of the matter, the scout sent out weishenme did not come back for a long time, only cared about fighting, but left this matter behind, the cavalry on the battlefield roared back and forth, but there were also shortcomings, as expected, the Huns had surrounded their three thousand people this time, no matter how they chose, there was only one way to perish, thinking of this, Lu Yi was in a cold sweat.
The Xiongnu generals were shocked, but they didn't expect the Han army that had just arrived to know their identity.
