Chapter 195: Encirclement
The horse-slashing warrior was unstoppable, and the huge horse-chopping long knife in his hand flew up and down to form a wall of knives and swept forward!
The Hun cavalry howled and rushed forward, but they were all ground like fresh meat thrown into a meat grinder! The scene was full of flesh and blood, people pressed horses and horses, and the corpses of people and horses accumulated layer upon layer!
The Hun cavalry finally couldn't resist it, their morale collapsed, and they all turned their horses and ran down. A ferocious counteroffensive disintegrated.
At the same time, the Hun cavalry that broke through in other directions were also routed and fled!
There was a brief lull in the fierce battlefield, and the momentum of the Hun army at this moment seemed to be much weaker than just now!
Qingge, who was standing beside Zhang Lang, was very anxious when he saw such a scene, and couldn't help but worry that his army would not be able to break through the opponent's encirclement and be wiped out!
At this moment, the Han army, which surrounded the Huns on all sides, made a move, and they pushed a large number of chain bed crossbows to the front line and lined up, ready to shoot.
The shape of those chain bed crossbows is quite different from ordinary bed crossbows, appearing thicker, more complex, and more connotative.
This kind of chain bed crossbow is a new type of weapon made by Zhang Lang's armory field according to his ideas, which can be said to be far ahead of this era.
Not only does it increase its strength with steel reinforcements, but it also makes extensive use of the spring structure, so that the power of this bed crossbow far exceeds that of ordinary bed crossbows, and is far from being comparable to ordinary bed crossbows.
With enough power, this bed crossbow can not only increase the firing distance of a single gun and arrow to nearly three times that of the original bed crossbow, but also shoot many guns and arrows at the same time, forming a dense rain of guns!
The so-called chain bed crossbow is a bed crossbow that can shoot sixteen guns and arrows at the same time, and the power of each gun and arrow is similar to that of a normal bed crossbow.
In this way, dozens of serial bed crossbow salvos can create a terrifying density of fire across the entire front, inflicting heavy damage on the current enemy forces!
Qingge felt a little strange when he saw that the Han army only launched a large number of bed crossbows, but did not take advantage of the situation to charge and still maintain a state of encirclement.
Immediately, his heart moved, he immediately looked at Zhang Lang, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't charge, do you want to trap our people to death?" ”
Zhang Lang nodded with a smile and said, "Although you are a Huns, your brain is not stupid. You are right, the reason why our army has not launched a charge for a long time is to completely annihilate your army.
If our army launched a charge and raid at the beginning of the war, or launched a fierce attack at this time, it could indeed defeat these 50,000 Hun cavalry.
However, the Hun cavalry came and went like the wind, this place was not a desperate place, and our army was limited, and the final result must be that most of the Hun cavalry escaped! It was easy to win, but it wasn't what I wanted! ……”
looked at Qingge and said lightly: "What I want is a war of annihilation, not a war of defeat." Since these 50,000 Hun cavalry are here, let me stay for them. ”
Infinite fear rose in Qingge's heart, and suddenly, she felt that the man in front of her was even more terrifying than the demon in myths and legends.
Calming down, he stared at Zhang Lang and said in a deep voice: "You won't succeed!" You're not going to get away with it! ”
Zhang Lang smiled.
At this time, the Xiongnu army surrounded in the bluestone valley failed to break through continuously, and most of its morale had inevitably declined, and panic spread among the entire army.
A Xiongnu leader looked at the Han troops surrounding him, and said with some doubts: "Why don't they take the opportunity to attack, and surround us like this?" ”
King Youxian looked at the Han army around him, frowned, and said in a solemn tone: "They know that we don't have much grain and grass with us, and they want to trap all of us by doing so!" This Yuan Mai is really vicious! ”
When the surrounding commanders heard this, they couldn't help but show panicked expressions. The leader Wolf Feng couldn't help but impulsively say, "King, let's continue to attack!" The Han army doesn't want to trap us! ”
Many of the other leaders shouted like impulsive beasts.
King Youxian looked at his own cavalry around him, and he could already clearly feel that his morale was not as good as before, and he had not been able to break through successfully before, so how easy it was to break through at this moment!
Frowning, a desperate impulse surged in his heart, and shouted to Wolf Feng: "Wolf Wind, immediately lead the cavalry under your command to break through to the exit to the north!" ”
Wolf Feng responded, and immediately shouted at his cavalry: "Warriors, come with me, let the people of the Han Dynasty see the power of our Xiongnu warriors!" The six or seven thousand horsemen under his command couldn't help but boil with blood, and let out bursts of bloodthirsty roars.
Immediately, Wolf Feng led the six or seven thousand cavalry under his command to rush straight to the exit of the Qingshi Valley in the north, and at this moment, at the exit, the heavy infantry of the Eagle Yang Army was already in full formation, and the fifty-six chain bed crossbows and the first part of the Cangting Army were also ready.
The battlefield, which had been quiet for a moment, was broken by the rumbling of horses' hooves, and the six or seven thousand cavalry led by Wolf Wind shouted wildly and rushed towards the northern exit.
Zhang Lang, who was on the hill to the south, saw this scene and muttered, "It seems that the Right Virtuous King is planning to concentrate his forces to break through to the north." ……”
Qingge looked at the battlefield in the distance with wide eyes, praying in his heart for his own army.
At this moment, a swishing, sharp sound of breaking the sky suddenly sounded!
The Hun cavalry, who was charging fiercely in the distance, suddenly fell down on their backs! The original wave of charge seemed to have been strongly blocked, and the momentum paused!
It turned out that the fifty-six serial bed crossbows arranged in the north were fired! Fifty-six chain bed crossbows fired a salvo, countless guns and arrows flew out in an instant, and the entire space seemed to be stirred, and those guns and arrows rushed towards the Hun cavalry with indestructible power!
In an instant, the cavalry group and the storm of guns and arrows were intertwined, and the guns and arrows knocked the Hun cavalry to the ground like a devastating one!
There was nothing that could stop the terrible power of the spears and arrows, the horses were shot through, the cavalry was knocked away, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and the people turned on their backs!
The charging momentum of the Hun cavalry seemed to be weakened by half at this moment!
However, the Hun cavalry was not defeated by a volley of the opponent's serial bed crossbows, and plucked up the courage to continue to charge forward, but the power was not as strong as before!
The bed crossbows of the Han army quickly retreated to the rear of the line, while the Cangting army raised a series of strong crossbows and fired a volley at the Hun cavalry who had already rushed to the front!
A huge wind whistle sounded in the air, and the Hun cavalry who were rushing towards the Han army only felt their scalps tingle! Before he could react, he felt a storm sweeping towards him, and many people were hit and screamed and fell off their horses!
This round of arrow rain rushed over, and the momentum of the Hun cavalry was weakened again, and the cavalry group that was impacting seemed to have become a little sparse.
