The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 168 The First Battle
[-] Xianbei iron cavalry came surging in with fury.

The four hooves of the war horse under the crotch are strong and fast, and it is surrounded by thunder, and it gallops across the plain of Niu Sheye, which is deafening.

On the ground covered with thick snow, a wide avenue of more than ten feet was opened, showing the original emerald green color of the wilderness.

The position of the central army of the Han army, Gao Shun rested his hands on the railing of the chariot, his eyes were deep, and beside him was a majestic banner engraved with the word "Han".

The Xianbei people are here!
The generals of the Han army were visibly agitated at this moment. Before going to the battlefield, they all drank the death wine in large bowls. Even if they never returned, they would never regret it.

But at this moment, facing the majestic Xianbei iron cavalry, saying that they are not afraid at all is purely deceiving themselves.

The horseshoes stomped on the ground and rumbled like thunder. The hearts of the Han soldiers were beating violently, and they were tightly clutching the weapons in their hands because of nervousness and anxiety.

"What are you panicking about!"

Gao Shun's majestic voice was like a bell, and his well-defined facial features became more resolute in the howling cold wind.

"General Gao, the last general requests to fight this vanguard of the Xianbei people." Fang Yue urged his horse to come to Gao Shun, holding a pear flower spear in his hand, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

Young and frivolous, full of passion.

Gao Shun didn't reply to Fang Yue. The [-] cavalry soldiers from Xianbei were obviously here to take the lead and find out the details.Bu Dugen would not be so stupid as to directly overwhelm the main force. When he was absolutely sure, he would dispatch the whole army to deal the most fatal blow to the Han army.

In fact, fighting a war is just like playing cards. When you see a move, you will dismantle it. Soldiers will block you, and water will cover you.Only a fool would use four double kings at the beginning of the game, and put all his wealth in a desperate attempt.

The hoofbeats were getting closer and closer, and the Xianbei people were less than half a mile away from the Han army.

The enemy is ahead, but he can't step forward to show his skills.

Fang Yue's heart jumped up and down, as if scratched by a monkey.He originally wanted to go up and earn a good start for the Han army, and to overwhelm the Xianbei in terms of morale, so as to increase the prestige of the Han army.

But Gao Shun, an idiot, just refused to speak.

If you wait like this, you will only be passively beaten.

"Pass down an order from my general that when the enemy invaders reach 150 paces, the archers of the former army will shoot in volley."

Hearing Gao Shun's order, Fang Yue's face was dull, and then he was amused, his attitude was not as kind as before, and his words were quite sarcastic: "General Gao, you know that the Xianbei cavalry How fast is your forward speed? Do you want to be suppressed by the five thousand archers in front? Can you suppress it, and you are almost dead!"

"They can't get through." Gao Shun said in a low voice, with deep eyes, and an inexplicable confidence on his face.

At that time, Fang Yue really wanted to question Gao Shun, where did this confidence come from.

But he held back, and for the sake of the overall situation, he continued to persuade Gao Shun earnestly, hoping that Gao Shun would find his way back: "I know you have 20 arrow feathers, but have you ever thought about it, 150 paces, cavalry is two In the blink of an eye. Before the arrows are shot, the Xianbei people have already charged in. By then, our cavalry will lose the initiative, and they will be useless if they can’t play a role.”

Gao Shun withdrew his gaze, glanced sideways at Fang Yue, and said lightly, "I know."

Then, there was no more text.

you know?
If you know it, hurry up and send cavalry to meet it!

But Gao Shun didn't do anything, Fang Yue was really angry this time, and shouted at Gao Shun on the spot: "Gao Shun, will you command the army?"

At the same time, the [-] riders of the Xianbei were less than [-] steps away from the Han army.

The archers of the Han army at the forefront have set their arrows to the string, pulled out the hard bow, raised it at a forty-degree angle, and pointed it at the sky.

Seeing this, Li Li, the leader of the Xianbei army, couldn't help laughing: "Boys, the Han people are so stupid that they even tried to block our cavalry with bows and arrows. Today we will teach them what riding and archery is."

After all, Ge Li took the lead to take the horn bow from the horse's belly, and then took out the sharp arrow from the quiver, and opened the bow to shoot the Han soldiers in front.

The infantry tactics are rigid, and the defense is extremely weak. Once the enemy gets close, there is only fate left to be slaughtered.

This is not the case with riding and shooting. Not only is the style of play changeable, but it is also fast and flexible. Coupled with the speed bonus of the horse under the crotch, the shooting range and lethality of the bow and arrow have been greatly improved.

The [-] Xianbei cavalry drew their bowstrings and aimed at the Han army, and the sharp arrows were about to come out.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

Li Li, who was riding in the front, neighed in pain under his crotch, his front legs moved, and he knelt down on the ground. The huge inertia threw Li Li on the horse's back, and turned over several times in a row. Get lost.

The [-] cavalry behind him were not spared either. Following Ge Li's precedent, they fell to the ground one after another, and were also thrown off by the horses under their crotch.

"What the hell are these Xianbei people up to?"

Fang Yue, who was in the Han army, clenched his spear tightly, and was ready to fight to the death, but in this sudden change, the Xianbei people fell off their horses one after another, as if they had seen a ghost.

Not only him, but all the soldiers of the Han army in the entire army are also inexplicable. Could it be that the gods are manifesting themselves?

After Li Li regained his composure, he saw that Ai Ma was already lying on his side on the ground, his whole body twitching non-stop.

He hurriedly climbed over, and after looking around, he finally found the problem. On the left front hoof of the horse, there was a black four-pointed sharp thorn, each three inches long.

"Barbed caltrops!"

Lie Li roared angrily, his pair of bronze drum eyes almost burst into flames, he obviously recognized this thing.

This kind of thing is not too difficult to make, and it is one of the effective means of defense and suppression of cavalry.

In the past, as a cavalry general, Li Li would never have made such a low-level mistake, but because of the ten-day heavy snowfall, the snow on Niusheye was a foot deep, and a small three-inch long thing was thrown in it. With the naked eye, you can't see it at all.

He reached out and fumbled twice in the snow in front of him, and sure enough, he found another one.

What a sinister method!

Lie Li gritted his teeth. Once a war horse injures a foot, it is equivalent to a person being permanently disabled, and will not be able to go to the battlefield in this life.

What is the most important companion of a cavalry?
There is no doubt that it is a war horse.

After learning that there were barbed caltrops hidden in the snow, the cavalry in the rear instinctively reined in the horse ropes. As a result, the greatest speed advantage of the cavalry was completely wiped out.

"General, look!"

A young cavalry pawn who rolled down beside Ge Li pointed to the sky with a face full of astonishment.

Densely packed arrows are flying towards this side, like the countless autumn migratory locusts, and the flight trajectory is in the shape of a large arc.

"Don't be afraid, the farthest Chinese bows and arrows are only a hundred steps away. Now we are about 150 steps away from the Han army. Even if they fly in front of us, they have no lethal power. At most, they will only scratch the skin. Don't..."

Before he finished speaking, a black feather arrow directly pierced through the head of the young man in front of him, splashing blood on Li Li's face.
