Three Kingdoms open plug-ins everywhere

Chapter 177
Chapter 170 VII

Facing the army of the Huns rushing like a flood of beasts, the Donglai cavalry was collectively silent, their eyes were staring ahead, and their bodies were also full of enthusiasm.

As the captain of the Sixth Army, Zhao Yun was at the front center of the entire team, holding a command flag in his hand.

Under the sound of rumbling horseshoes, all passwords are easily confused, and only Lingqi can send out signals without interference.

Just like the banner of a general, among the fighting enemies and ourselves, only by following the banner can we gather combat power and guide the direction.

Visually measuring the distance, Zhao Yun waved the command flag, and immediately four thousand cavalry captains of the Sixth Army drew up their bows one after another. After a breath, Zhao Yun waved forward twice.

Four thousand sharp arrows flew out, drew an arc in the air, and fell into the galloping Xiongnu army.

Immediately, countless Huns fell off their horses and were trampled to death by their own horses.

After the first wave of arrow rain from the Han army, the Huns also began to draw bows and shoot arrows.

The bows and arrows of the Huns are much simpler than those of the big Han, and their shooting range is far less than that of the sophisticated bows of the Han.

Thousands of arrows flew out and rushed towards the Han army.

The Han army was prepared and raised their shields to block.

Countless arrows shot at the leather shield.

However, many Han soldiers were shot by crude arrows and fell off their horses.

Then the second wave of arrows from the Han army shot out, and countless Huns shot off their horses because they couldn't avoid it.

The Huns made a second wave of arrow rain, but at this time the Han army moved, the army began to move forward, and the horses began to run.

The second wave of arrows from the Huns either shot too close and stuck on the leather shield of the front guard, or fell behind the Han army. Only a few hundred arrows wounded the Han army.

And Zhao Yun's third wave of arrows shot through the air, also hitting the Huns' rear.

The two armies greeted each other, and the distance between them was only five or sixty meters. Both sides retracted their bows and replaced them with melee weapons.

At this time, Xu Huang's command flag was waved, the guards put down their leather shields, the first two rows were replaced with new shorts, and the two rows behind also put down their leather shields and picked up javelins.

These javelins were all learned from the Roman squad, which combined the tactics of Roman cavalry warfare.

"put!"

With a roar, Xu Huang's command flag waved again, and all of them fired at once.

"Shhhhhhhhhhh...!"

"Puff puff……"

The Huns who rushed to the front thought that they could really compete with the Han army, but they didn't expect the Han army to stay behind and put two rows of short slaves in the front.

The moment they saw the short crossbow, all the Huns had a bad feeling.

The Huns who had seen the power of the short slaves suddenly showed panic on their faces.

The short range is not far, but it is fast, and can shoot ten rounds in an instant, and it is continuous.

A thousand new short crossbows shoot out ten thousand dead arrows.

Ten thousand sticks kept coming like locusts.

The three or four rows of Huns rushing to the front were all hit and fell down, and there was a gap.

The thousand javelins in the hands of the government guards took the opportunity to throw them out, and then shot the Huns in the fifth to seventh rows off their horses.

"kill!"

Having received the expected effect, Xu Ding and the soldiers immediately became more morale, brandishing their weapons and rushing into the blocked Hun army, stabbing left and right.

There was a bloody battle, countless heads fell from their shoulders, and countless corpses fell under the horses.

Although the Huns had a large number of troops, their momentum was weak from the beginning of the battle. The entire front was emptied, and the troops behind were shocked and stunned.

In addition, Xu Ding, Huang Zhong, Tai Shici and others are all mighty, killing stars reincarnated.

The soldiers below had stirrups, and they stood on the horse and shot as they wanted without any scruples.

Fighting all the way, the Xiongnu army was directly split in half, and it was impossible to stop it.

The Xiongnu's troops did not place much emphasis on coordination and formation, and now they are in a mess, unable to form a joint force to fight the Donglai cavalry.

Four to five thousand people were quickly beheaded, and the troops began to flee south in a rout.

"Kill!" Turning around, Xu Ding led his men to charge again, this time completely defeating Luan Tihu Chuquan's remnants.

Luan Tihu Chuquan saw that the situation was not good, he clamped his legs and urged the horse to retreat.

"Chase!"

Xu Ding led the brave Donglai army to drive the defeated Xiongnu army to the south.

They didn't withdraw their troops until the end of the battle.

Along the way, there were countless corpses of the Huns, and there were even more unmanned war horses.

At the end of the chase, the Donglai Army's [-] troops were divided into three or four groups, and pursued from all directions.

When it was dark, they all returned to gather.

Seeing that everyone had returned, Xu Ding asked, "Is there any beheading of Hu Chuquan?"

All the generals shook their heads, expressing that they had not found Huchuquan, the Right Wise King of the Huns.

"Fortunately for him, I will definitely not let him escape." Although Hu Chuquan, the Right Wise King, was not beheaded, the battle was fruitful.

After the final count, about [-] people were killed and wounded by the Youxian King of the Huns, and four to five thousand horses were captured.

The Youxian King of the Xiongnu suffered heavy losses and could not recover within a short time.

Of course, the most important thing in this battle is to allow the Donglai Army to defeat the Xiongnu army that is three times its size from the front.

Let the Donglai army build up a strong self-confidence.

Some people will say that Donglai soldiers won by relying on the new short crossbow and using a large number of crossbow arrows, which is somewhat ineffective.

But those who say this can only say that they are mouth guns.

This kind of thing is not surprising for a big man, and soldiers are also tricky.

War is to use one's own advantages to win. If one wins with one's own technological civilization, what can be refuted.

The result of this battle was quickly passed on to all parties.

The Donglai cavalry drew their swords out of their sheaths and succeeded in the first battle, destroying the Huns Youxian King's tribe head-on. For a while, all parties expressed different opinions.

Zhongyang City!
"Hahaha! Bokang is amazing. He defeated the Xiongnu Youxian King in the first battle and won a complete victory. It is really exciting."

Thanks to Xu Ding's great victory, the Xiongnu army left by King Zuoguli in the south of Xihe County was afraid that Xu Ding's Donglai soldiers would go south and attack them with Cao Cao, so they withdrew to the north and returned to the army.

So Cao Cao took over Zhongyang City, the army took over the southern part of Xihe County, and at the same time sent people to temporarily keep the horses captured by Donglai soldiers.

While practicing riding skills in Xihe County, a group of people looked around for the shadow of the Huns, and took the initiative to attack the scattered Huns, especially the Huns from the Youxian King's tribe.

The Huns in this group were so frightened that even the pawns led by Cao Cao had to avoid them.

"What? Six thousand cavalry from Donglai defeated eighteen thousand cavalry from the Youxian King's tribe. Huchuquan is a rebellious son who is incompetent and deserves to die." Shanyu Luanti Qiangqu, the Xiongnu, had the urge to tear people apart when he heard the news.

One to three!

He even lost to the Han.

The key is the Han cavalry in the Central Plains.

Can the Han cavalry there be called cavalry?

If it is the same force that loses to the Han cavalry in Bingzhou, it can still be justified. After all, the Han people here grew up on horseback, practiced riding since childhood, are good at bowing horses, and often fight, with rich experience.

"Shan Yu, shall we continue to attack Wuyuan County?" Zuo Xianwang Luanti Yu Fuluo asked.

Now the two tentacles going south have been cut off by the Donglai army, and they will attack Wuyuan in one direction, it seems that the harvest will not be great.

Luan Tiqiangqu did not answer this question, but continued to ask: "Where are the Donglai cavalry now!"

One of his subordinates, General Zuo, said: "According to King Zuoguli's news, after the Donglai cavalry went north along the Qin Zhidao, they went down the straight road near Dongsheng and disappeared."

"Gone!"

Luan Tiqiang frowned into the word Sichuan, and his face was so dark that he could splash ink, as if he wanted the tranquility before the eruption of the volcano.

"That's right, Shan Yu, the Donglai Army lost the news. The Zuo Guli King's Department was worried that Wang Ting Meiji would be attacked, so they didn't dare to send troops to search, so they had to retreat there." The Zuo General explained.
