The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 581 The Battle of Wujin

The scouts of the Huns came and went like the wind, frantically attacking the Han soldiers who dared to approach.

The dense sound of horseshoes and occasional screams continued to follow the wind. The Han army, which was at a disadvantage in terms of cavalry, was obviously severely oppressed.

"The order."

Li Yunze instructed the Hanboks beside him, "All outposts should be withdrawn."

"Here~~~"

Hanbok first ordered his soldiers to convey the order, and then asked with doubts, "My lord, if there is no horse sentry to detect the enemy's situation, I may be taken advantage of by the enemy."

The main job of scouting horses is to spy on the movements of the enemy army, so as to prevent the enemy army from playing all kinds of tricks, while their own side is still ignorant.

"It's okay."

Seeing the Huns pouring in like a tide from a distance, Li Yunze responded lightly, "They are here for a decisive battle, and there is no time to waste."

Harassment, cutting off food routes, and strategic encirclement are useless to the Aries Department at this time.

Because their old battalion was always facing the threat of Chengle County defenders, once the defenders saw through the reality and took the initiative to attack, the old battalion would be gone.

So for the Aries Tribe, it is necessary to win the battle quickly, and then rush back with the main force.

Li Yunze could see it clearly, so he took back the horse outside without any hesitation to avoid meaningless losses.

In fact, for the Han army at this time, the best way is to garrison Wujin, attracting the Huns to come to besiege the city and break it one by one.

It's just that he wasn't sure if the Huns had reinforcements, or when the reinforcements would come.

Anyway, the reinforcements of the Han army will not be able to come in a short time, because the main reinforcements must go to Shangjun, because that is the north gate of Jingzhao Chang'an.

What's more, Li Yunze wanted to defeat the Huns in a wild battle with dignity, kill the arrogance of the Huns, and rewrite the situation that the Han army was hard to win in the field.

Before the start of the battle, Li Yunze made a heavy promise, "Decree to the generals of the army that if you win this battle, you will be rewarded with ten strings and ten bolts of silk! Merit for beheading the army, beheading the general, capturing the flag, and jumping will be counted separately!" "

As the news was passed on layer by layer, the Han army immediately cheered and cheered, and their morale was greatly boosted.

The Huns are not only far inferior to the Han army in terms of equipment, but also in terms of morale.

As for the reason, it is very simple. It is impossible for their leaders and nobles to offer such high rewards.

Li Yunze on horseback raised his arms high, and slowly moved forward, "Array, face the enemy!"

'Boom boom boom~~~'

The dull drum sounded, and many neatly dressed Han army sergeants, armed with their own weapons, began to line up under the urging and scolding of officers at all levels.

The so-called array does not mean that tens of millions of people gather together to form a large array.

This is a war, not a world record in group gymnastics.

Taking the Han army as an example, the formation is usually based on the unit of the village, that is, a small formation of 50 people, and then multiple small formations close together to form a large formation, and more large formations gather together, which is the real meaning on the army formation.

The total number of soldiers from all departments of the Han army is about 7000.

Li Yunze took the soldiers and horses of the Zhongshan State under his own headquarters as the central army, and ordered Wu Yao Duwei Chen Xin's unit to be the front army, Wu Gao Duwei Han Fu's unit to be the right army, and Wujin Zhao Guang's unit to be the left army.

As for the rear team, it is a master team composed of thousands of local peasants.

They were also equipped with weapons, bows and crossbows, surrounded many vans to form a circle to protect themselves, and followed the formation to protect the back of the formation.

Li Yunze didn't plan to use those masters to fight on the front line of the battlefield. When the masters had to go to the front row, they would basically lose.

The army moved forward slowly with the sound of drums, stopping every once in a while to rectify the queue.

After all, it is not a display of horizontal lines and vertical columns, so there will inevitably be deviations when marching on the battlefield.

If the deviation is not corrected, the farther you go, the more chaotic it will be, until finally it is completely scattered and collapsed.

In this regard, the Han army, which has thousands of years of experience in war inheritance, has long formulated relevant military orders, and usually stops at sixty paces to rectify its formation.

In comparison, the Huns on the opposite side are simply a piece of loose sand.

For the nomadic tribes on the grasslands to truly become strong, they had to wait until they had obtained a large number of middle-earth craftsmen and advanced equipment.After learning the combat skills of Middle Earth and having many full-time sergeants for long-term training.

Seeing the Han army's formation gradually pressing down, Xu Bulu also felt his teeth ache.

Although the Han army is not as numerous as him, it is well-equipped and well-organized, and it is not easy to deal with at first sight.

In the past, it must be dominated by harassment, which dragged on until the exhaustion and morale of the Han army collapsed.

But there is no way today, we must finish this battle as soon as possible and rush back.

It's easy to say anything if you win, even if you lose, you can choose to run away decisively.

But no matter what, this battle must be fought.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Bulu summoned several commanders and told them to lead their troops to resist the Han army that was pressing forward.

These commanders were all led by farming-oriented tribes, holding some strange weapons in their hands, crowded together in a mess, preparing to resist the Han army.

Naturally, Xu Bulu couldn't count on these mobs, his real killing move was tens of thousands of cavalry.

It is impossible for the cavalry to charge directly, at least before the Han army's formation collapses, it is courting death for the light cavalry to charge directly.

These cavalry will go around the two wings, harass the two wings and the rear of the Han army, and look for flaws to launch a fatal attack.

As for the Han master in the last place, he, Xu Brun, was able to become a big household not only by his blood, but of course he had the ability.

As long as they can defeat the main soldiers of the Han army, those masters are just a plate of food, and they can eat whatever they want. Of course, they will not waste their strength on the masters at this time.

Xu Bulu issued orders one after another, and dispatched a group of troops to resist the advance of the Han army's left and right wings.

As for himself, he led tens of thousands of people to sit in the rear, waiting for the opportunity to join in.

The front of the Han army is under Chen Xin's department, and its equipment is still dominated by long halberds. The first few rows are more than a thousand long halberd soldiers, followed by long halberd soldiers who are in charge of protecting swords and shields, and behind them are bows and crossbows. hand.

These are frontier troops, skilled in tactics and skills, and their morale is also very high under Li Yunze's high rewards. The most important thing is that the armor rate of the Great Wall Legion has always been very high. Thirty percent.

Iron armor is the most important strategic resource in this era.

The cavalry of the Huns rushed forward, throwing bows and arrows to harass them when they were dozens of steps away.

Arrows rained all over the sky, and with enough numbers, there were still many unlucky Han soldiers who were shot at unarmored parts.

They screamed and fell to the ground, but the big formation would not give them any preferential treatment, and the people in the back row would immediately step forward to replenish them and continue to move forward with the sound of the drums.

The crossbowmen of the Han army were also counterattacking. Their crossbows had a long range and great power, and they fell on the almost armored Hun cavalry, causing great damage.

On the battlefield where the arrows flew horizontally, the large formations on both sides were constantly approaching.

When the distance between the two sides was only a few miles away, a large number of Han soldiers suddenly rushed out of the gaps in the many small phalanxes of the Han army's front army, shouting and rushing forward.

This is not a loss of formation, these are jumping soldiers selected in front of the station!
The so-called "jumping soldiers" means that when the two armies meet, before the formation of the army is finally adjusted, a wave of troops is needed to attack the enemy. While disrupting the enemy's formation, it buys enough time for the main force to finally stabilize the impact.

These jumping soldiers are all selected on the basis of voluntary registration, and they are all elites who are not afraid of death.

And the skill of jumping and swinging has always been regarded as the first among all skills.

Basically, as long as you can survive, you can get promoted and make a fortune.

Without this premise, no one would be crazy to be a death squad.

In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of the jumping soldiers, Li Yunze not only recruited more from the Zhongshan national soldiers he brought, but even provided almost two hundred sets of iron armor, and equipped the jumping soldiers with a total of less than 400 people with iron armor.

Before setting off, the jumping soldiers, who each drank a bowl of wine, went straight to the front of the Huns with red eyes holding various weapons.

At this distance, the cavalry of the Huns had no time to react, and it was difficult to break through the blockade of the crossbowmen of the Han army. They could only watch helplessly as the jumping soldiers crashed into the formation of the front army.

Some of the jumping soldiers carried infantry bows, and they all shot arrows frantically at a distance of twenty or thirty steps. After shooting empty quiver, they rushed forward with their companions holding up their shields and knives.

All kinds of weapons of the Huns swept over, stabbed, chopped, and smashed. At the first wave of impact, at least 80 to [-] jumping soldiers fell to the ground.

But the rest of the people rushed into the formation of the Huns smoothly, waving all kinds of weapons in their hands wildly, reaping the lives in front of them.

The combat effectiveness of the infantry of the Baiyang tribe is really poor, not even as good as the Tutuan peasants of the Han army.

Because their burdens are heavy, they not only have to farm, but also take care of livestock, and do all kinds of work for the nobles. They have almost no free time from morning to night, so naturally they don't have to sharpen their martial skills , Time to train battle formations.

Its combat effectiveness is probably stronger than that of the beggar army in the late Ming Dynasty.

The elite jumping soldiers successfully disrupted the formation of the Xiongnu's front army, killing countless people, and at the same time gradually plunged the Xiongnu's front army into chaos.

They all came to win military exploits with a mortal heart. The iron armor on their bodies had amazing defensive power, and the explosive fighting power made the Huns terrified.

Suburu was shocked!
He knew that the Han army was elite, but he didn't expect it to be so elite!

The former army composed of thousands of people was almost about to collapse.

He had no choice but to urgently arrange the captains around him, and lead the reserve team forward to reinforce and stabilize the formation.

There are still more than a hundred steps between the two sides, and the Huns are already in chaos, which casts a shadow over Xu Bulu's heart.

"Han Jiazi, can you really be so tyrannical?" '

The jumping soldiers who were frantically fighting in the Huns army suddenly heard the sound of drums behind them, and they were relieved immediately, the red blood in their eyes quickly faded, and they ran back desperately.

The power of jumping has been obtained, and now I have to run away.

Of the nearly 200 jumping soldiers, only less than [-] escaped successfully. The terrifying battle loss rate is also the reason why the jumping skill is the top of all merits.

At this time, the front row of halberd soldiers under Xin Zhao's command was only the last thirty steps away from the Huns on the opposite side.

As the drums sounded, the sergeants in the front row stopped against the rain of arrows and made final adjustments.

The Han army maintained its strict formation, while the Huns on the opposite side were already crooked and messy.

Even though the jumping soldiers had already withdrawn, they had no time to reorganize.

As the drums sounded again, the halberd held high by the Han army fell, and the halberd was pointed at the opposite side with both hands.

"Wind! Gale! Gale!"

As the Han army shouted obscenities in unison, they began to move forward.

The steps are very small, almost like small steps.

But the pressure brought to the Huns on the opposite side was like Mount Tai.

Li Yunze, who was on horseback, could see clearly that the front line of the Huns was scattered and lacked long soldiers.

He immediately ordered "No need to test, attack!"

The sound of the drum sounded, and the halberd soldiers of the Han army, who had already approached within ten steps, gave up their tentative actions and directly stabbed the halberd in their hands towards the opposite side.

In an instant, the shadow of the halberd was like the wind, and the blood gushed like a spring!
