Chapter 056: The Great War of the Huns
What does it feel like to gallop with thousands of horses?
The earth shook like an earthquake, and it shook people like never before.
The distance of two kilometers, under the dash of the war horse, almost quickly touched.
"Bang bang."
Suddenly.
The Hun cavalry charging in the front row, as if they had hit a wall, even men and horses, instantly turned into a blood mist, and completely dissipated between heaven and earth.
The cavalry that followed closely was also crushed by the power of the gods.
This moment.
Throughout the prairie, the blood mist rolled up in the sky.
Yang Yu's face was indifferent, holding Fang Tian's painting halberd, and he also rushed into the Hun army.
Any enemy who touched his Heavenly Painting Halberd was cut down by him one after another.
Endless cavalry, madly sprinting from the rear of the army, bringing unparalleled impact.
He rushed into the galloping military formation of ten thousand horses and slashed for a while, and then urged the war horse under his crotch to leave the battlefield, circled, and continued to let the war horse run and kill.
In this way, he can kill happily and not have to be surrounded by so many enemies.
Equally.
Long Ji took the 10,000 armored cavalry and stormed into the hundreds of thousands of Hun troops, and began their crazy slaughter.
"Ah Guduo, you lead 20,000 of my Hun warriors, you must not let this Qin continue to charge." Mao Dun looked at the Great Qin generals who were frantically rushing to kill in their army, and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Shan Yu!"
When Mao Dun's subordinate A Guduo heard the order from Shan Yu, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately went to lead the army to besiege and kill this Qin general.
"The rest of the people, leading the warriors of their respective tribes, gave Ben Dan Yu a circle, and raided Meng Tian."
Mao Dunshan calmly gave the order, although he was angry that this Qin general had beheaded the number one general under his command, but he needed to restrain himself.
After all, the Great Qin of the Central Plains is not so easy to deal with, and there is an army of 300,000 led by Meng Tian.
When he talked about Meng Tian, the whole person gritted his teeth.
This man is almost a nightmare for their Huns.
"Yes."
The patriarchs of several other Xiongnu tribes, hearing the order from Shan Yu, did not hesitate, and led their warriors to prepare to bypass the 10,000 Great Qin soldiers and go to fight with Meng Tian and others who were waiting in the rear.
……
Rear.
Meng Tian looked at the changes in the battlefield and sighed: "National Teacher, Zhen Nai God Man, Han Xin, you lead 10,000 iron cavalry, surround the battlefield on the left flank two miles away, don't engage the enemy head-on, cruise to kill the enemy when you see the opportunity, and then retreat after fighting." ”
"The last will obey." Han Xin's eyes were full of excitement when he heard the instructions given to him by General Meng Tian.
He's never commanded so many armies.
In the past ten years, he has commanded a thousand people at most, but he is also very satisfied, he didn't expect that the general actually gave him 10,000 troops this time.
"Fan Xu, you lead 10,000 iron cavalry to assist the national teacher, disrupt the enemy's formation and then evacuate, and then continue to disrupt."
"Xiahou Ying, you lead 10,000 iron cavalry to surround the battlefield on the right flank two miles away, and you must keep a distance of two miles from the enemy, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack."
Meng Tian calmly gave the battle order, looked at the rapidly changing formation on the battlefield, and said in a deep voice.
"The last will obey."
Listening to it, Yingbu and Xiahou Ying couldn't hide the excitement in their eyes at all, they like to rush and kill on the battlefield, they used to be small scenes, but now they are really big scenes!
"The rest, spread out in a fan shape, defend."
One by one, combat orders were issued, and tens of thousands of horses rushed out of the Great Qin army's formation, scattering separately, like three torrents, speeding around.
……
"General."
In the battlefield, Long Ji had already led the armored cavalry to collide with the Huns, and in the face of so many Hun sieges, all the soldiers with armored cavalry did not retreat, but killed more and more cheerfully.
You must know that cavalry is the king of the era of cold weapons, and armored cavalry, as long as it is not the appearance of those special types of troops in later generations, the world is invincible.
"Be careful to let the armored cavalry run and not be surrounded by the enemy."
Yang Yu, who was frantically rushing to kill, saw that Long He had come to his side, and said in a deep voice.
Cavalry that cannot run will have a much lower combat effectiveness.
"The last general knows."
Long Ji is not only a commander, but also a fierce general, his bravery, should be under the umbrella, the surrounding Hun cavalry, can not get close at all.
Yang Yu didn't care about him, but chose to continue to rush and kill, experiencing the thrill of killing enemies on the battlefield.
In the first wave of fierce charge, he used the mental power that he had not used for a long time, and instantly caused the Huns who were charging at the forefront to die instantly with their war horses, which could be regarded as disrupting the rhythm of the Hun army.
For the rest, let this group of Hun cavalry test the armored cavalry he spent a lot of money to build and surpass this era.
This battle.
The smell of blood filled the battlefield, staining the sky red.
The shouts of killing shook the sky.
It wasn't until dusk that the war came to an end.
Inside the Qin army's tent.
Yang Yu sat on the main seat of the camp with a sour body, and the armor on his body was already stained with the blood of the enemy.
"General, the losses of the armored cavalry have been counted, our army has lost 4,568 people, and the remaining 5,432 people remain, but more than 4,500 soldiers have been killed, and about 20,000 enemies have been killed head-on, and the Hun cavalry who have fled have not been pursued."
At this moment, Long He walked into the big tent from the outside covered in blood, and reported the loss to Yang Yu with a heavy face.
"Whew~"
Hearing the loss reported by Long He, Yang Yu took a deep breath, looked at him with a gloomy face, and said, "That's how you explained to Ben Shuai?" ”
"General......
Hearing this, Long Ji looked ashamed and knelt on one knee.
It was not that he was incompetent, but that there were too many enemies for them to charge, and once they charged, the Huns stuck to them as if they were dogskin plasters.
Many of the soldiers were killed by the Huns when they were evacuating the battlefield and preparing for the second round of charge.
"Get up! Collect the corpses of the soldiers, the horse leather shroud, the fallen leaves return to the roots, and the equipment cannot fall into the hands of the Huns, and the pension will be discussed after the war. ”
Yang Yu said in a deep voice: "Injured brother, let the accompanying doctor treat it as soon as possible, remember, even if there is only the last breath left, you must give Ben Shuai all the strength to rescue him." ”
"No."
Long He stood up from the ground and said, "The last general will personally supervise it." ”
"General Meng, report on the battle."
Yang Yu's eyes fell on Meng Tian and the others next to him, asking about the situation.
"Yuguo Division, this time our army has captured a total of 80,000 enemies, captured nearly 120,000 enemy troops who have fled from the army, about 80,000 war horses, and our army has more than 23,000 killed, more than 37,000 wounded, and some other materials in addition to armored cavalry."
When Meng Tian heard the battle damage of the armored cavalry, he only felt that the pressure was greater than that of the mountain.
The armored cavalry was a frontal attack on the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Huns, with losses of less than half, and the number of battleable soldiers was as high as nearly half.
He cleared the rout behind him, and he actually lost so many people, which was really a loss of death.
"Hey......"
Hearing this, Yang Yu sighed, the war is so cruel, and said: "The corpses of the fallen soldiers must be collected well to prevent the occurrence of the plague, and the full pension must be given to the families of the dead in person, and those who are injured and unable to continue fighting must also be given a full pension. ”
"The national teacher can rest assured, who dares to do anything in the pension of the fallen soldiers, I Meng Tian is the first not to agree, if I Meng Tian does not deal with it well, the head of the item, although the national teacher takes it away, I Meng Tian will never say anything."
After hearing this, everyone present froze in their hearts, and naturally did not dare to stretch out their hands casually.
If they stretch out their hands indiscriminately, does that mean that they will die in battle in the future, and others will dare to do something in their pensions?
"The strength of the Huns is less than 200,000, tomorrow, Meng Tian, Han Xin, Fan Xu, Xiahou Ying, you each lead 10,000 lightly armed cavalry, attack these five places for Ben Shuai, push it sideways, if you can capture the prisoners, you will capture the prisoners for the Ben Shuai, and the old people will all be cut down, leaving women and children and young adults with labor, you know what I mean?"
Yang Yu stood up from his seat and pointed to the five directions on the map behind him.
Great Qin is now in a period of development and needs a large amount of labor, and unfortunately, these nomads have become his target.
"National teacher, if we capture the prisoners, our food will definitely not be enough."
Fan Xu frowned and said.
Light cavalry, they marched and fought with only dry rations, how could they take so many prisoners?
"Stupid." Xiahou Ying held his forehead and hurriedly dragged Fan Xu, can you not be ashamed, the cattle and sheep of the nomads are not enough for you to eat?
"Fighting on the prairie, do you need me to teach you how to do it?"
