Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 203 The first battle against the Huns 2
Seeing the Huns' army coming continuously, Gongsun Xu said with a smile: "It's too slow, and the organization and discipline are also poor. The advantage of having a large number of people is that you can use the whole army to crush the enemy. However, the disadvantage of having a large number of people is that it is very difficult." It is difficult to be uniform, especially among the cavalry of the Huns, many cavalry will not be trained to send troops in formation at the same time.

Zhengfang, do you know where our army's cavalry is? "

After hearing this, Gao Shun replied: "The equipment is advanced. Light cavalry generally have two bows, which are suitable for long and short distance attacks. The swords are sharp and can easily cut through the armor of the enemy, especially the troops in grassland tribes where productivity is relatively backward. There are horseshoes, which can be used for galloping without fear of damage to the horseshoes of the war horse, and the double-sided stirrups ensure the stability of the cavalry, so that the level and accuracy of riding and shooting of elite soldiers are greatly improved."

Gongsun Xu nodded and replied: "What you said can be seen at a glance, and there is another thing that can only be reflected in the battle.

The cavalry of our army, no matter which one it is, is a well-trained, disciplined, tactically flexible, wise and brave, and a formidable whirlwind force.They are physically strong and able to adapt to the needs of battle; they can turn back and shoot the enemy who follows them in a rapid retreat; they can endure hardship and harsh weather conditions without coveting comfort and good food.

What cannot be ignored is that the strict discipline system formed during the training process made them all obey orders without slacking off, which is unheard of in the cavalry ranks of other grassland tribes. Cavalry is more specialized. "

Gao Shun laughed and said, "Hehe, it seems that I was negligent."

Gongsun Xu shook his head and replied: "You will know later why Xuanfeng and Baipao have the right to fight independently."

Just when Gao Shun was wondering, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes from the left of the Beijiang military chariot formation. It turned out that the white-robed army led by Zhao Yun launched an attack forward. The white-robed army had three riders each, and there were 7000 people in total, [-]. The war horses were all started at once, and the momentum was also very large.

Soon, Gao Shun discovered the key point. The Huns were still in formation at this time. Due to the large number of soldiers, orders could not be communicated effectively. Many Huns cavalry had clashed, and many places appeared to be in a mess.

Except for the 5 people in the central army of the Huns who were about to line up, the formations in other places were very chaotic. Just now, Zhao Yun found that the enemy's right wing was a little chaotic, so he immediately led the army to attack. Gao Shun now understands that the fighters It appears quickly and disappears quickly. If you wait for yourself to issue an order, it may be too late to attack again.

Soon, Zhao Yun's side was only 100 steps away from the enemy's right flank. Of course, it was impossible for the Huns to let Zhao Yun rush over. Immediately, a team of ten thousand people led by Chief Wan came to meet Zhao Yun. Going up, but Zhao Yun did not confront him head-on. Zhao Yun immediately led his army to run along the right flank of the Huns. After the distance was right, the white-robed army shot towards the place where the enemy army was densely populated.

As for the chasing [-]-person team, they couldn't catch up for a while, so they could only use cavalry and shooting to interfere with the white-robed army. However, the white-robed army who fell behind were not free to eat. Reflexive kick back.

Zhao Yun's sudden move made the right wing of the Xiongnu army even more chaotic. Since the bows of the Northern Army generally have a range of [-] steps longer than those of the Hun cavalry, and the arrows are also more powerful. It became the Huns who were being beaten.

There were too many Xiongnu troops, and due to lack of coordination when forming the formation, many troops were crowded together. The white-robed army could shoot at the enemy almost without aiming. There are always unlucky ghosts, and within a short time, the right wing of the Huns lost thousands of people.

After hearing the report, the Hun Shanyu Xubu Gudu immediately went to the high platform to watch the battle. When he saw that although there were many people on his side, but they were being beaten, his lungs were really about to explode. Now, The right wing of the Huns has not yet made appropriate adjustments.

However, it seems that the soldiers can't be blamed for this. The key is that if the Chanyu doesn't issue orders, what can they do? Could it be that the right wing is swarming towards the white-robed army?Then the entire right wing would be in chaos, and no one would dare to act like this.

Hou Buguduhou immediately issued an order: "Come here, send the order down, and send out three teams of ten thousand people to drive them out."

As soon as the words fell, the soldiers around Xubu Guduhou immediately waved the battle flag, and soon, two teams of ten thousand people were dispatched. They surrounded the white-robed army from different directions. Zhao Yun saw that the other party had dispatched nearly thirty thousand cavalry. Afterwards, he immediately ordered a retreat, and the white-robed army fought and retreated under the leadership of Zhao Yun, and moved away from the right wing of the Xiongnu army in a short while.

The three ten-thousand-thousand troops on the Xiongnu side were ordered to expel rather than hunt down, so when the white-robed army left, they immediately returned to their original formation under the command of their respective captains. Before returning to the main formation, Zhao Yun's white-robed army came galloping from the other side.

The white-robed army had enough horses, and the soldiers didn't have to worry about the exhaustion of the horses. After they retreated, they changed to horses without landing, and then led by Zhao Yun to kill the Xiongnu again.

Before the Xiongnu cavalry came back to their senses, Zhao Yun shot towards the densely populated place again. The right wing of the Huns was in chaos, and they were disturbed by the white robes twice in a row and lost nearly 1 people. It is still not lined up, and this will affect the formation of the entire army.

Gongsun Xu looked at the chaos on the opponent's right wing, which caused the formation on the left wing to be not yet formed. He smiled and said, "Maybe the striker will make a move."

Sure enough, the fighting style of the front-guard army was exactly the same as that of the white-robed army, and they also quickly attacked the enemy's left flank.

At this time, Hou Bugudu was angered by the white-robed army. He didn't want to destroy his right wing just because of this 7000-man cavalry, so he ruthlessly shouted: "Give me an order to send out two cavalry." Team of ten thousand people, hunt and kill this white-robed army, we must drive them out."

Because this order was rather special, the soldiers of Xubuguduhou had to leave the high platform to convey the order. After half a stick of incense time passed, [-] cavalry from the right wing of the Xiongnu came to kill the white-robed army. This time, They were not just driving them away, Shan Yu's order was to kill them all, unless the white-robed army stopped and confronted them, otherwise, they would keep chasing the white-robed army.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Zhao Yun immediately ordered to retreat. After the white robe army quickly withdrew from the battlefield, the two ten thousand troops still chased after the white robe army. It was fun all of a sudden.

He said to the lieutenant beside him: "The order, the enemy has taken the bait, we withdraw."

After finishing speaking, the white-robed army rushed towards the uninhabited grassland. They had no intention of returning to the vicinity of the chariot formation at all. The two [-]-strong Hun cavalry had no choice but to bite the bullet and chase after them. They did not believe that the white-robed army would So keep running away.

Seeing the white-robed army fleeing away, Gongsun Xu showed a slight smile, while on the other side, the Xiongnu Chanyu Xu Buguduhou laughed wildly, because the white-robed army kept blowing the horn when they were fleeing. Judging from the situation, it should be to ask for help from Gongsun's main formation. However, there are less than [-] cavalry left on Gongsun Xu's side, so it should be impossible to rescue.

However, just as Xubuguduhou was laughing wildly, there was a commotion from the left wing of the Xiongnu army. Immediately afterwards, Xubuguduhou looked back and saw that about [-] enemy troops adopted the same tactics as the white-robed army. The fighting style is harassing its own left wing troops.

Since the Xiongnu focused their attention on the right wing for a while, the actions of the left wing slowed down relatively. The funny thing is that the right wing of the Huns has not yet settled down, and the formation of the left wing has also gone wrong.

As soon as the 1 people on the Xuanfeng army approached, they would shoot arrows. Anyway, wherever there were many people on the opponent side, they would shoot arrows. More than 4000 Hun cavalry were lost.

Hou Bugudu finally understood that the two enemy troops clearly did not want to live in peace on his side, and it seemed that expulsion would not solve the problem, so he once again gave the order and shouted viciously: "Go, call me again!" Two ten thousand troops, drive this cavalry to me, and don't let them approach our army."

The order was quickly conveyed, and the two ten thousand troops also immediately dispatched and rushed towards the selection front army. Seeing that the enemy had been fooled, the selection front army immediately turned their heads and flew away. The cavalry in the rear did not forget to shoot back to prevent the enemy from pursuing.

Soon, the frontier army, like the white-robed army, was far away from the battlefield. They didn't run towards the main formation, but ran to the other side of no man's land. It means not letting go after killing.

After half a stick of incense, even if the white-robed army and the selection front army were really far away from the battlefield, Gongsun Xu could still hear the horns blown by the selection front army and the white-robed army. Call for help, but Gongsun Xu really doesn't have any extra troops on hand.

The Xiongnu sent 7000 cavalry to pursue them. At the same time, due to the harassment and shooting of the front-guard army and the white-robed army, the total number of losses on the left and right wings of the Xiongnu army was no less than [-]. Of course, this loss did not refer to deaths in battle. , Less than [-] soldiers were directly shot to death, and more were seriously injured. Many soldiers had to withdraw from the formation after being hit by two or three arrows.

After waiting until the horns of the drafting army and the white-robed army could no longer be heard, Gongsun Xu smiled at Gao Shun: "Get ready, our army will be in a passive situation whether it is fighting generals or rushing to the battle. Feng and Baipao attracted 4 enemy troops, and the enemy should have around [-] left, twice as many as our army."

Gao Shun nodded and replied, "It's okay. The left and right wings are actually not in danger. The chariot formation has only one attack opening, which is the real front. The only way they want to attack is to attack our army from the front. Otherwise, it's just a waste of effort."

Both Gongsun Xu and Gao Shun looked forward. Next, it was a real fight. They were not worried, and seemed to be full of confidence.
