Chapter 179: Tao Qian's Danyang Soldiers

Sunny. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info is the throat of the Han Dynasty's foreign traffic, and it is also the place where the Silk Road must pass.

It has been more than half a month since Changtian came out of Longguan, and he has not found a good opportunity, but he has only strangled a few small enemy soldiers.

Bian Zhang Han Sui slowly gathered the fleeing men and horses back, and after recalling most of the stragglers, the rebels came to Meiyang and set up camp, preparing to confront the Han army again.

The reason why they dare to do this is because they know that Dong Zhuo will not use iron riding, they know that Dong Zhuo wants to raise his own dignity and will not really kill his side, as for why they know, it may be the reason why some people have always had a tacit understanding between them.

Seeing a large number of Qiang soldiers set up a large camp, Chang Tian knew that he had to rely on his own soldiers and horses to attack the Qiang soldiers' camp, and there was absolutely no possibility of victory, so he temporarily stopped fighting, and even the small group of enemies around him did not fight, waiting for the time to come.

In history, Meiyang's victory was because of a meteor, which is quite similar to the battle of Kunyang of Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu's meteorite smashed right near Wangyi's camp, frightening almost all the enemy soldiers and prostrating on the ground, so Guangwu won a great victory.

Meiyang's meteorite did not fall on this side, but the tail of the comet, which was dozens of zhang long, still frightened most of the enemies and their livestock, so Han Sui and the others prepared to withdraw their troops and retreat to Yuzhong overnight to hold on.

Dong Zhuo saw the opportunity for them to withdraw their troops, joined forces with Bao Hong, the right Fufeng, and chased after them with all their might, defeating the enemy.

Of course, this is history, and there is no such opportunity here, so there is still a tough battle.

A few days later, Zhang Wen and Dong Zhuo also led their troops to Meiyang, set up a large camp with the enemy several miles apart, and started a confrontation.

camped so close to the enemy, obviously he didn't take the other party in his eyes, in fact, Zhang Wen really didn't take the other party in his eyes.

Bian Zhang and Han Sui naturally would not let go of this opportunity, and rushed out while the Han army was camping and killed them.

And this attack is not a temptation, but an all-out attack.

The so-called temptation is when the two armies face each other, they will try to find out the weak links of the other side, and then go down with a drum.

Now this kind of display is clearly a good opportunity to break the enemy, even those who will not fight again will not miss it, so the cavalry on both wings of the Qiang soldiers all dispatched to kill Zhang Wen and them.

"Kill them all, go straight to Chang'an, and loot for three days!" Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou, who were born in the northwest, shouted without any scruples.

Bian Zhang and Han Sui still frowned at this kind of order, and at the same time they were glad that they had changed their names.

These two were originally named Bian Yun and Han Yue, although they were forced to be the boss of this anti-thief, but the court would not pay attention to these, and of course they had to sign their names.

So the two discussed it, it was better to change their names to cover people's eyes.

They each changed their characters and names, one changed from Bian Yun Zi Pingzhang to Bian Zhang, and the other changed from Han Yue Zi Wensui to Han Sui Zi Wenyue.

Fortunately, the ancients took words that were related to the name, or connected, or relative, or complementary to each other, so there was nothing inappropriate after changing it.

After this period of giving orders, these two people gradually got used to this feeling of holding power, and felt that it was quite good, now that they have the opportunity, why not try to make the power bigger?

In fact, the two themselves are not good people, after being forced, they were forced to agree to Li Wenhou in the face of the fear of death, and then they even took the initiative to repair the book to Jincheng Taishou Chen Yi, so that he could redeem himself, but Chen Yi was killed as soon as he arrived, and the thieves also took advantage of the situation to capture Jincheng, and also killed Leng Zheng, the captain of Huqiang.

The desire for power slowly filled the hearts of the two people, and Han Sui was secretly planning a plan to concentrate all the military power in his own hands.

When the Qiang soldiers heard Beigong Boyu's words, they were naturally very excited.

Because in order to stabilize the morale of the defeated soldiers, Bian Zhang Han Sui had already told all the Qiang soldiers and thieves about the terrible Xiliang Iron Cavalry that they would not participate in the war again.

Therefore, now the Qiang soldiers do not have much sense of fear, and they directly and unscrupulously kill the Han army.

Of course, Zhang Wen's side will not be defenseless, in fact, he is waiting for the opponent's attack.

He quickly gathered some of his soldiers to deal with the battle, while the rest continued to build camps with auxiliaries and civilians.

This time, Zhang Wen was not prepared to commit all his troops, and it was not yet time to annihilate the enemy, as long as he repelled them.

He only allowed himself to bring the tens of thousands of soldiers to the battlefield.

The reason is that Zhang Wen wants to deter Dong Zhuo and his generals, as well as the original Han army in Longguan, to show his strength, only in this way can these people under the command of Huangfu Song and Dong Zhuo listen to the Han army and better accept his orders.

Zhang Wen is confident enough that the people he brought are good enough to handle this battle.

Dong Zhuo, who was already a general because of his meritorious service in retreating from the enemy, rode on a horse but didn't know where to look, and there were only 3,000 flying bear troops and his headquarters around him, Dong Zhuo had no intention of participating in the war, and Zhang Wen did not give him an order.

Zhang Wen's deputy is the general Zhou Shen, this person is useless, and of course Zhang Wen never expected him to be.

"Gongzu, it's up to you." Zhang Wen said to Tao Qian.

"Zhang Cheqi rest assured, it's just a traitor, and the elite soldiers of Danyang in Qian's headquarters are enough to repel these thieves." Tao Qian clenched his fists and said.

"Array up to meet the enemy!"

Behind Tao Qian, thousands of uniformly dressed and strong soldiers, all with cold expressions, resolute faces, and fully armed, they walked forward together, facing the onrushing Qiang cavalry, their faces were calm, and they opened their formations.

The Danyang soldiers, who were waiting for the battle, did not set up a gun and shield array to block the Qiang cavalry at the beginning, but put down the shield and took out the bow and arrow on their backs.

The Danyang soldiers are a very strange class, they are proficient in bows and crossbows, swords, guns and shields, so they always go into battle with both ranged and melee weapons.

And no matter what you use, you are very skilled, even very proficient, and you are worthy of being a special class.

Li Ling, who led 5,000 infantry to fight the 80,000 cavalry of the Huns, brought 5,000 Danyang soldiers, which shows the strength of Danyang's elite soldiers.

Thousands of Danyang soldiers, at the same time, pulled up the strong bow, at the Qiang cavalry that was rushing over, projectile out, and then did not look at the opposite side, again full of projectiles, like this three times in a row, all the Danyang soldiers at the same time abandoned the bow, picked up the shield and clenched the spear, waiting for the impact of the enemy.

Under the cover of the perverted arrow rain of the Danyang soldiers, the Qiang cavalry suffered many casualties.

The Qiang cavalry is not the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, they themselves do not have much armor to cover, and their defense is much worse than that of the Iron Cavalry, of course, the advantage is that they are relatively fast.

But in the face of this, the attack power is obviously far more dense than the arrow rain of ordinary shooters, and there are naturally not a few dead and wounded.

The front of the cavalry was blocked, and the rear army would never feel better, so in order to avoid a stampede, most of the rear army turned their horses' heads and charged towards the diagonal spur in two ways.

They wanted to rely on their speed to crash into the military formation of those Danyang soldiers from the side.

Seeing this, Gongsun Chan wanted to move, but Zhang Wen stopped him.

"Gongzu can deal with it, but it's not yet time for you to attack."

At the same time, Zhang Wen also ordered the two wings to carry out rescue shots to reduce the impact of the Qiang cavalry.

After a period of confusion, the front team of the Qiang cavalry also relieved itself and rushed towards the Danyang soldiers again.

Looking at the enemy infantry that was less than 10,000, the Qiang cavalry were all thinking, they were just some infantry, what qualifications did they have to compete with the cavalry. Didn't those cavalry disperse several times the number of their own army formations last time, and they will do the same this time, not to mention that their own number is much more than that of the other side, what are they afraid of.

So the Qiang cavalry attacked at the same time in three directions.

The cavalry was very fast, and the collision was only in the next moment, and everyone on the battlefield was looking at it, even Changtian, who had been ambushing in the distance.

The Danyang soldiers all knelt on their right knees, pressed their left arms and shoulders against their shields, and held their spears tightly in their right hands, firmly pressing the end of their spears to the ground.

"Boom"

The two sides met, and the collision began.

However, the continuous collision was followed not by the screams of the Danyang soldiers, but by the neighing of horses.

The scene in front of him surprised everyone, only Zhang Wen was smiling as he stroked his beard.

Only a very small number of Danyang soldiers were repulsed in this charge, almost all of them firmly resisted the powerful impact, and none of them died, and all the cavalry front troops were blocked.

The troops behind were shocked, and they quickly turned around and ran to the side, ready to look for an opportunity to rush back again.

It's okay to be blocked, as long as you wait for the front army to disperse, and then come again, you will definitely not be able to stop the other party by forming a chain of collisions.

Of course, this is just a good idea.

The Danyang soldiers perfectly blocked the impact of the Qiang cavalry, and they seemed to have enough spare strength.

"Kill!" Tao Qian, who had been standing in the center of the military formation, did not wait for the other party's reaction and ordered without hesitation.

The slaughter began instantly.
