The heavens start from saving Daming

Chapter 582 The Battle of Wujin

The sound of drums and horns echo each other, and various soldiers come and go where the infantry on both sides meet.

The Han army used standard weapons, and they were very proficient in cooperating with each other after long training.

The Huns have all kinds of weapons. Although there are many brave men, they are at a disadvantage in the situation.

The crossbowmen on both sides were not idle, maintaining their strength and shooting arrows round after round.

Archery is not about clicking the mouse in the game and shooting as much as you want.

Even for a well-trained archer, there is a limit to the explosive power of his arm in a short period of time. Usually, after shooting twenty or thirty arrows in a row, his arm will be weak and weak to shoot again.

So there are very few quick shots, and they are all rounds of archery.

The crossbowmen of the Han army are commanded by officers, and most of them are covered by waves of arrow rain.

As for the bows and arrows of the Huns, they were scattered and scattered, unable to form covering shots, and their deterrent power was naturally reduced accordingly.

However, at this almost face-to-face distance, even if it is the soft bow used by the Huns, unless the arrow hits the iron armor, it will be difficult for the Han army to resist here.

When the halberd soldiers in the front line of the Han army stabbed and stabbed again and again, the sword and shield players in the back line quickly stepped forward, rushing forward from under the forest of long halberds with cats on their waists, crashing into the Huns' army formation, waving their rings The first knife and other weapons hacked randomly.

Many Xiongnu infantry were cut to their thighs and calves, and they all screamed and fell to the ground tossing.

The Huns also followed suit, and many Huns with short soldiers also began to rush towards the Han army frantically.

There was a powerful Baichang, wearing a snatched iron armor on his body, brandishing the halberd in front of him with a bone in his hand, rushing into the formation of the Han army, and smashing the skulls of the Han army in front of him with a single bone .

The other hand erected a cowhide shield to block the attack from one side, and swung the bone in his hand again, hitting a young Han soldier two steps away in the face.

Seeing the terrified face of the young Han Jun, Baichang felt elated.

'puff! '

The two halberds stabbed almost at the same time, Baichang swung one with his shield, but the other halberd pierced straight to his head.

Relying on years of battlefield experience, Baichang tried his best to avoid it.

But before he could catch his breath, the halberd was withdrawn suddenly, and the horizontal blade cut open his neck, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

Baichang's eyes lost their brilliance, and his strong body fell heavily to the ground, followed by countless pairs of big feet.

On the battlefield of fierce fighting, personal bravery can play very little role.

Strict formation and tacit cooperation are far more important than individual bravery.

When the front battle was fought, the two wings were not idle.

The Huns' cavalry began to attack the array on both wings regardless of casualties.

Cavalry combat is not a matter of rushing upwards.

Although that is also a tactic, usually no one would do it.

Cao Mengde once said that cavalry has war cavalry, trap cavalry, and ranger cavalry.

If you really want to rush into the formation, you must separate the layers to attack, constantly look for the weak point of the formation, and then seize the opportunity to desperately attack the weak point.

The infantry of the Huns is indeed very bad, and their combat effectiveness is basically in line with the level of a five-barbarian.

But their cavalry is not bad, otherwise it would be impossible to suppress the Han army for so many years.

First, the rangers stepped forward, shouting and yelling constantly, intimidating and disrupting the Han army's formation, while consuming the Han army's bows and crossbows.

After that, the war cavalry followed up, constantly attacking and testing the Han army formations one by one, looking for weaknesses.

When there was confusion in the formation of the Han army, the trapped cavalry immediately launched an attack, desperately shooting at the bows and crossbows of the Han army, and directly rode their horses into the Han army's formation.

The skills and tactics of the cavalry have already been extremely proficient after being adjusted by Mao Dun and the two generations of the old Shanyu.

"My lord! Captain Han and Captain Zhao sent someone for help!"

Hearing this, Li Yunze on horseback looked calm, "Tell them, I don't have any reinforcements for them, and if I can't defend the two wings, I will be punished as losing the army."

The military law of the Han Dynasty was not so complicated. After the abolition of corporal punishment, the only punishment left was beheading.

If the army formation is broken and the battle is defeated, it must be beheaded.

Li Yunze must have a reserve team, the more than a thousand soldiers of the Zhongshan Kingdom under him are both the central army and the reserve team.

But Li Yunze would not use this power on the two wings.

"Fortunately, it's the Aries Tribe that came this time." Li Yunze, who was closely watching the battle ahead, said softly to himself, "If the leader of the Great Chanyu comes, then I have to open the altar and summon the armored vehicles."

The reason for this is very simple, because the Aries tribe is both farming and herding, and they still do more farming.

Therefore, it is actually the large number of pawns who act as the main force on the battlefield.

If it were the big Shanyu who led it directly, at least tens of thousands of cavalry galloped forward, Li Yunze would have to kill him.

Looking up at the sky, Li Yunze said to himself again, "Aren't you going to let it out? Your front line is about to collapse."

He held the reserve team and waited for a fighter opportunity, and this fighter plane was the reserve team in the hands of the powerful family of the Aries Department on the opposite side, that is, the tens of thousands of people in the Central Army.

The Han army, which is dominated by infantry, has no choice but to take the Hun cavalry galloping on both wings, because they cannot catch up with them.

Although Li Yunze also thought that the Huns might be brain-dead and took the initiative to use cavalry to attack the convoy in the rear, but it was obvious that they were not that stupid, and their precious troops were used to attack the formation, instead of foolishly hitting with bows and crossbows. cart.

If they want to win, they have to defeat the Aries tribe's central army.

If you want to defeat the Chinese army of the Aries tribe in one go, you have to let them go out on the battlefield first.

The battle of the former army became more and more fierce. The Han army under Chen Xin, relying on excellent equipment, good organization and high morale, gradually crushed the former army of the Huns.

The battle is very cruel, especially the sergeants in the front row. There are people all over the front, back, left, and right. The only choice is to keep stabbing forward.

Their battle loss rate was also very high. At this point in the battle, almost all the halberd soldiers in the first two rows had already lay down.

Chen Xin's troops consisted of 800 soldiers, of which 200 were halberd soldiers arranged in four square formations, and now almost half of them have been lost.

Of course, it doesn't mean that all of them were killed in battle, but that many people were injured and unable to fight anymore, such as being shot by arrows in their hands and feet.

The ones who really died the most were those hundreds of shield soldiers. They rushed into the enemy's formation to fight, and once they were injured, they would basically die.

The Han army, who had gradually become red-eyed, stabbed in with a long halberd in his hand, drew it back and stabbed in again, really mustering up his last strength to fight.

There are fewer and fewer sword and shield soldiers still fighting in the enemy's formation.

Chen Xin, whose scalp was numb, couldn't help but wanted to call Zhongshan King for reinforcements.

He suffered heavy losses here, but in fact, the people of the Aries tribe on the opposite side suffered even greater losses.

Not only did they suffer a lot of losses, the pawns of the Aries tribe were even on the verge of collapse.

They were able to persist until now not because of the high degree of organization, but on the contrary because the degree of organization was too low. Many people were surrounded and fought with the Han army in a mess, and they had nowhere to run.

Suburu was disappointed.

He put his hopes of winning and losing on the cavalry, but he attacked the cavalry of the Han army on both wings. Even if they launched a decisive attack and shook the position of part of the army, they were still beaten back.

The tenacity of the Han infantry made him secretly chill.

Abandoning the traditional harassment tactics and face-to-face formal battle with the Han army, the result was so miserable!

A thought came to Xuburu's mind, "Why don't you try to attack the team at the back?" '

After this idea wandered around in my mind, it was abandoned.

The loss was too great, and he already wanted to retreat.

But it was also because the loss was too great, and he was defeated and fled because he was unwilling.

After carefully observing the battlefield for a while, he finally gritted his teeth and issued a new order: "Cavalry go to block the Han army on both wings, all captains, Qiqu, Qianchang, follow me!"

Suburu's central army numbered about [-], including about [-] cavalry.

He ordered [-] cavalry to block the Han army formations on both wings, and isolate the Han army's former army in the shape of a character.

Xu Bulu's battlefield experience is also very rich. It can be seen that the former army of the Han army has suffered a lot of losses and is already close to the end of the crossbow. He decided to take the Chinese army forward to swallow it!
The former army that swallowed Han'er took advantage of the situation to fight again. It would be best if they could beat them down. If they couldn't beat them, they would leave.

After the commander-in-chief made up his mind, all the ministries acted quickly and rushed to the battlefield mightily.

Li Yunze, who observed this scene, immediately ordered "Prepare for battle!"

The [-] soldiers of the Zhongshan Kingdom, who were the Chinese army, arranged their armor and weapons one after another, and followed Li Yunze's banner and pressed forward.

The three frontier lieutenants all thought that Li Yunze's Zhongshan soldiers were elite, and the reason was that all of the more than 1000 troops were wearing iron armor!

Xu Bulu ordered the infantry in the front line to retreat and reorganize, and Han'er's front army was handed over to him to fight.

But he overestimated the fighting power of the Aries Tribe. When the two armies were fighting fiercely, it was not easy to retreat before the battle.

As a result, when the order was issued and the horns blew, the former army, who had long been unable to hold on, immediately dispersed and all turned around and fled.

Some are clever and know how to bypass the two wings of the central army.

But there are more sand sculptures, and they slammed into the Chinese army without thinking.

At this time, there is not much to say, and they are killed directly in the face of routs.Otherwise, it would be easy to mess up one's position and lead to the defeat of the entire army.

After some chaos and chaos, Suburu was half-dead from anger.

The rout not only blocked the opportunity for the Chinese army to advance to take over the front line, but also shook the Chinese army's position and gave the opposite Han army a chance to calmly adjust.

Naturally, Li Yunze did not let go of this opportunity, and he keenly seized it.

Order Chen Xin's troops to rush forward quickly and entangle the chaotic Aries Tribe Central Army.

He himself took the soldiers of Zhongshan Kingdom and made a half-arc sideways attack.

Chen Xin really wanted to say, my department lost too much, let me withdraw.

But he could also see that the opportunity to fight was right in front of him, so he could only grit his teeth and urge the important soldiers to keep stepping forward.

When facing the Huns, the Han army's fighting will was actually very high.

In particular, the Great Wall Legion, which had a blood feud with the Huns, had a higher ability to withstand casualties.

Under such circumstances, the sergeants chose to grit their teeth and persist and continue fighting.

Li Yunze led a small group of 2000 people to prepare for a side attack, and Xu Bulu was not blind, so he could see it.

When he saw the army formation shining silver in the sun approaching from the flank, his back molars were chattering.

"Harlon!"

Suburu roared, and in exchange for his confidant, "I give you the thousand-man army in the rear, and I give you my tent army, go and block them! Blow the horn and let the cavalry come back!"

The men and horses in front were either chaotic by the rout of the army, or they were entangled in the front of the Han army and could not be mobilized.

Now he still has the soldiers and horses for braking in his hands, only the thousand-man team behind the point and his tent army are left.

Suburu knew very well that he must not escape at this time. If he escaped, the [-] infantry would be considered here, and even part of the cavalry would be caught.

Counting the previous losses, it was almost over ten thousand.

This is a strong man of over ten thousand, and the Aries tribe has only tens of thousands of strong men. If it is really lost, it will be shaving the bones and digging out the heart!

He could only resist first, summon the cavalry in the distance to regroup as soon as possible, or at least force the Han army back.

Xu Buru's heart was chilled, he was already frightened by the terrible fighting power of the Han army, and now he just wanted to reduce the loss as much as possible and return to the tribe with more men!
