The Third Night: The Founding Battle of the Northern Wei Dynasty (3)
However, Tuoba Jue, who grew up on the grassland since he was a child, looked calm, and watched the Dugu Hun cavalry gradually approaching steadily. When the other party approached a certain distance, he gave an order and led the cavalry of the Tuoba Department to charge.
At the same time, the cavalry of the Helan and Murong tribes on the left and right flanks also poured out almost in no particular order. This is not to say how good they are tacit understanding, but they are accustomed to cavalry warfare, they all know a truth, that is, cavalry charges should pay attention to a suitable time, too late will not be able to increase the speed, too early will the horse is easy to get tired.
Therefore, the timing of the coalition army's dispatch is just to increase the speed of their own war horses to the highest before they can hit Dugu Xiongnu head-on, so that Tuoba Cave will suffer because of the long distance of the war horses and the long charging time.
For this truth, the people of the East China Sea also understood it after the fact. At this time, they were closely following the flank of Tuoba, and they rushed forward together.
In this era, the Hu people in the north have not yet been sinicized, and they do not know what the art of war and formation, they rely on the strength of the soldiers and horses to ravage the north, and only know how to line up the cavalry with a long snake, full of mountains and valleys. Just like the idiom created by Fu Jian in the Battle of Weishui three years ago - throwing the whip and breaking the stream, it is the best interpretation of the Hu people's riding method.
In this battle, the Dugu Xiongnu borrowed from Tuoba Cave was about 10,000 horsemen, and Murong Xianbei brought by Murong Lin had 6,000 horsemen, Tuoba Jue's headquarters had about 4,000 horsemen, Helan had 4,000 horsemen, and the rest of the troops attached to Tuoba had a total of about 6,000 horses. Therefore, there are 30,000 iron horsemen hoarded in this basin north of Takayanagi at the moment, and when the two sides hedge, it is really like two torrents that collide head-on.
In the war of the cold weapon age, this kind of unfancy cavalry hedging is the most iron-blooded, and only those who have experienced such a war can most deeply appreciate how small the power of the individual is. In the collision of two torrents of flesh and blood, either one is insignificant.
It's like a stubborn rock on the ground, maybe the hooves of the first horse can't hurt this stone, but when the iron hooves behind it continue to step on, there will be some small cracks in the stone. Thirdly, fourthly, and even more iron hooves are stepped on, and the crack is enlarged, and the stubborn stone is trampled into dust, dirt, and finally dust behind the horse's hoof.
A moment later, when the war horses of the Northern Wei coalition army finally reached their highest speed, the distance between them and the Dugu Hun cavalry was only less than 100 meters. With both sides at top speed, the distance was completed in less than three seconds, and the two torrents of flesh finally collided together.
For a moment, the crisp sound of weapons clash and the muffled sound of wounded horses colliding out of control replaced the roar of horses' hooves trampling the ground. Whether it was the Huns or the Xianbei people, they were all brave people, and the knights were aroused to the blood surname, and they simply forgot what fear was, and successively filled the front line like a meat grinder.
The cavalrymen were either killed, or simply wounded and fell off their horses, and then trampled by tens of thousands of iron hooves, trampled into flesh, truly interpreting the idiom of liver and brain, and integrated with the land of Gaoliu, becoming a part of the land of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and laying the foundation for the establishment and rise of the Northern Wei Empire.
In the dream of the East China Sea team, the people were involuntarily engulfed in this torrent, and they involuntarily slashed their martial forces to strangers they never knew. At this moment, they had forgotten about the question of proficiency, but they were subconsciously fighting with this iron-blooded will.
This pure cavalry battle ended as quickly as he began. After the two torrents hit each other wave after wave, they are like waves in the bay that collide with each other, the weaker side breaks up into a wave, swallowed up by a powerful opponent, the only difference is that the waves here are flesh and blood.
Tuoba Cave was completely defeated, and went north with the remaining hundreds of horsemen, just as he originally planned, to take refuge in Liu Weichen of the Tiefu Department. However, he lost even more completely, because the enemy of his enemy is not necessarily a friend, and he may still be an enemy. Liu Weichen, who hated everything in the Tuoba tribe, killed him because he was the son of Tuoba Shiyiqian.
Murong Lin led the reinforcements back to Zhongshan, while the rest of the tribes attached to the Northern Wei Dynasty also dispersed. At the end of the summer of 386, the founding war of the Northern Wei Dynasty came to an end.
It was not only the East China Sea that received the baptism of war, but also the young Daowu Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty who had matured in the war, and he began to think about the relationship between war and profit, which Sima Fuqiang often told him, and only by using interest could the northern tribes unite under his command. At the same time, in order to realize this benefit, he had to change the status quo in the north and integrate the Han Chinese into the state system of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
He began to implement the policy of "dispersing the tribes" and "dividing the land and settling" in his own territory, and included all ethnic groups in the Northern Wei Dynasty to strengthen the centralization of power. In addition to the animal husbandry that the Hu people had always relied on for survival, and at the same time vigorously promoted the farming of the Han people, and when Murong Xianbei and the Dugu Xiongnu were still busy carving up the territory of the former Qin, the Northern Wei Dynasty quietly accumulated national strength.
======================== the dividing line between dream and reality =======================
The Tokai team ended the Battle of Takayanagi and returned to the real world with a rating and 1,600 points per person after this long war dream that lasted for nearly three months. The four elements to achieve the evaluation and improvement are "offering a plan to quell the rebellion", "subduing Helan", "asking for help for thousands of miles" and "encircling and destroying the cave".
It can be said that Sima Fuqiang is really working hard this time, and he has taken over this battle from beginning to end of his advice and birth and death, and he has finally gained every point of hard work, and the dream world has given enough evaluation and reward. Seeing that the whole team has a total of more than 10,000 points, which is enough to wake up Huang Zhi and have a slight surplus, you can consider upgrading several of the team members who have accumulated enough skill proficiency in this battle.
The first time they woke up in the collective dormitory, everyone turned their heads to look at Huang Zhi, who was lying there quietly waiting for points to save his life. After all, they had stayed in the dream for three months, and they all had a subconscious worry in their hearts, they were really afraid that they would not have time to come back to save Huang Zhi.
Li Sha immediately did another routine check for him, confirming that he was still in that half-dead state, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Then they thought that they could save him tonight, and everyone was in a good mood, and they couldn't help but look forward to the coming of the night.
