Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 537 On the way to pursue 1
After a fierce battle, Gongsun Xu commanded calmly on the hillside. The more than 3000 tiger and cardinal troops down the mountain worked together. Some were responsible for attacking the enemy's formation, and some were responsible for using cavalry and shooting to harass and kill the enemy's formation when it was loose.

The Xiongnu cavalry was originally a rare elite, but no matter how elite soldiers are, they need to be commanded by a suitable commander in order to exert their maximum combat effectiveness.The three thousand volt commanders of the Xiongnu could barely command three thousand Hun cavalry to fight, but unfortunately they all died under the knife.

The highest officials in the remaining Xiongnu army are only centurion-level figures. It is indeed embarrassing for them to command all the troops. Besides, they are not subordinate to each other. Even if someone can stand out and command, the rest Whether people can obey orders for a while is still a problem.

Besides, Gongsun Xu on the hillside is not a vegetarian. He is not just commanding the battle. He has never stopped the pulley bow in his hand. In addition, there are twenty or thirty soldiers who are good at shooting tigers and cardinals around him. Which Hun cavalry performed outstandingly would definitely be sniped.

It's not that Gongsun Xu's arrows have reached the point where the enemy can't dodge. The key is that apart from Gongsun Xu's superb archery skills, the arrows of the other twenty or thirty cavalry will follow Gongsun Xu's arrows. Will bring dozens of arrows and shoot in the same direction. Among the Hun cavalry, who can resist such an attack.

In the melee between the two armies, what is needed most is the mutual cooperation between the soldiers. The Huben army obviously has an advantage in this point. The more the Xiongnu cavalry fought, the more chaotic they became. Individual combat ability is definitely not weaker than them, coupled with the mutual cooperation between the Huben army, some are responsible for offense, some are responsible for defense, how can the Huns cavalry resist.

In less than half an hour, the Xiongnu cavalry at the foot of the mountain had only 3000 remnants and defeated generals, while the Huben army still had about [-] soldiers. Individual combat effectiveness is not the only key to victory on the battlefield. Fighting ability is more important, no matter how powerful you are, you will end up in a tragic death on the battlefield. The power of the army lies in this.

The last five hundred Hun cavalry were also tenacious. They would never surrender, even if they knew they were dead, they would persist until the last one.It has to be said that such soldiers are the real grassland warriors, but Gongsun Xu will not show mercy because of their bravery and ferocity. Kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself. The strength of the Huns will only arouse Gongsun Xu Continue to kill.

How fierce is the battle of trapped beasts.It's a pity that the Huns cavalry faced the Huben Army, and their counterattack before they died failed to disrupt the rhythm of the Huben Army's attack. None of the Huben Army stepped forward to fight or snatch the military exploits privately because they were about to win.

Skillful coordination, tight formation, and crowd vs. few tactics made the counterattack of the Hun cavalry so weak that it was impossible for them to pull a tiger and cardinal army to back them up, because even if they risked being killed towards the When throwing weapons ahead, there will always be soldiers of the Huben army stretching out their spears or shields to shoot down the weapons, and then the attacking Huben army on the opposite side will just wave their weapons and kill them, even if the Huben army at the front Having been injured by a weapon, neither the movement of his hand nor the direction of the weapon in his hand will change a single bit.

The Huns cavalry screamed and roared, they were not reconciled, they didn't want to die.Once upon a time, they were the most powerful cavalry on the grassland, and they were the fighting heroes of the nomadic tribes on the grassland.On the battlefield, how many enemy troops have they fought against? It can be said that each of these Hun cavalry started with a few, or even a dozen or dozens of lives.

It's a pity that these Hun cavalry met their nemesis today.The nickname of the Huben Army is invincible. This not only refers to the individual combat effectiveness of the Huben Army, but also refers to the fact that one plus one is greater than two soldiers.

A Hun cavalry can fight a Huben army soldier for a long time, and it is not impossible to injure or kill the Huben army, but if ten Hun cavalry confronts ten Hun cavalry, the Hun cavalry will definitely be suppressed Fighting, when the number of both sides exceeds one hundred, the fighting power of the Huben army will far exceed that of the Xiongnu cavalry, even if the opponent is the most famous Shanyu guard or eagle shooter on the grassland.

Gongsun Xu shot the last arrow, and the last Hun cavalry on the battlefield glared at the front, he was not reconciled, he was not reconciled, just now, he was about to cut down the tiger cavalry in front, but at that In an instant, the left and right sides suddenly stretched out a spear to block his attacking route.

At the moment he was blocked, the tiger army in front swung his saber and chopped down.Relying on his superb riding skills, the Hun cavalry grabbed the reins of his horse and dodged, but before he could recover, an arrow shot out from his left rib.

An arrow pierced his body, and the Huns cavalry thought of many things at this moment.He started to learn horseback riding at the age of five, and then practiced riding and shooting, fighting skills, went to the battlefield at the age of 13, and became a well-known warrior at the age of 17.

Then he was recruited as Shan Yu's personal guard. All this scene flashed in the Hun cavalry's mind. He still remembered that his wife and children were holding his hand before the battle. That feeling was so warm. , so sad.

His family did not want him to participate in this war. He had already negotiated with his family to secretly migrate to Hetao to live a stable and prosperous life, because more and more people are talking about the prosperity of Hetao and the Northern Xinjiang Army. He also believes that Gongsun Xu in Northern Xinjiang is a great master of the Ming Dynasty, a hero who is far more powerful than Shan Yu.

But he had once been favored by Shan Yu, and he had to fight when Shan Yu needed him most.Many prairie warriors took up their swords and went out on horseback because of this. It was not up to them to choose. They were prairie warriors, and it was Changshengtian who called them to fight.

"I shouldn't have come." The cavalry said something like this: "It would be nice to stay at home and graze horses and sheep. If there is no war, how good it would be..."

Although this arrow was not deadly enough, it also made the cavalry lose the power to fight again.Strangely, the Huben Army cavalry did not kill him, but surrounded him in groups. The rest of the Huben Army still began to search for their comrades on the battlefield. It seems that everyone did not take this Hun cavalry seriously.

"Are you a centurion?" A very majestic voice came from behind the Hun cavalry, and the Hun cavalry couldn't believe his ears. At that moment, so many things flashed through his mind, he felt Knowing that he was about to die, and having experienced so much life and death on the battlefield, he could clearly feel that it was the harbinger of the coming of the god of death. Before, he had survived with his own will, but at that moment, he had even lost his support. The idea of ​​going down.

He turned his head slowly, and a young man behind him stared at him coldly. Seeing this young man, the Hun cavalryman unconsciously compared him with Zuo Xianwang.King Zuo Xian is also very young, even younger than the person in front of him, but compared with the person in front of him, both his momentum and his eyes are much worse.

"I'll ask you a question, and if you answer truthfully, I can save your life." Gongsun Xu said coldly, "Don't put any score of grassland warriors in front of me. If you don't want to live, I'll send you on your way now."

The Hun cavalry suddenly found that he had no room to bargain, did he want to die?Of course not, at that moment just now, he regretted coming here, he no longer owes Shanyu anything, he wants to go home, live for himself, for his family, even if it is death, he wants to die by himself around the family.

"Which cavalry are you, and whose commander do you belong to?" Gongsun Xu continued to ask: "Who commanded you here, where did you send troops, how many people are there, and what is the purpose?"

Gongsun Xu finished asking these questions in one breath, and then stared at the cavalry. While the cavalry was still thinking, several Huben soldiers came over with three wounded Xiongnu soldiers.

Gongsun Xu pointed to these three people and said: "The four of you have surrounded each other and fought together from beginning to end. Even in critical moments, the three of them will defend you against weapons. Don't tell me that the three of you are okay. If you dare to say Just half a lie, I cut them to pieces. Don't you value loyalty? How does it feel when your best brother dies in front of you? Do you want to try?"

There was a sneer at the corner of Gongsun Xu's mouth. He discovered the difference between the four just now on the mountain. The other Huns cavalry fought on their own. Only the four of them supported each other from the beginning to the end. The cavalry had a chance to break through just now. But he came back for the three brothers.

"To be honest, I will send someone to heal your wounds." Gongsun Xu continued, "How about giving you three more horses and some dry food?"

"You are much stronger than Zuo Xianwang." The cavalryman looked down at his three brothers. They were all exhausted and wounded. If Gongsun Xu just said to let them go, then the cavalryman would never Let go, but Gongsun Xu has thought of healing their wounds and escaping for them. He has to admire and has no reason to refuse.

"King Zuo Xian led us to detour through the Yinshan Mountain from the grassland in the west of Xianbei. The military order I got was to follow the army to attack the army of the Northern Xinjiang Army to conquer Xianbei." The cavalry said: "A man in black came here a few days ago. There was a message, and then our army changed direction, and then we chased the army of thousands of tigers, that's all I know."

"There are still five hundred Tigers and Ben troops. If they are defeated and captured, where will your Zuoxian King take the hostages?"

"It should be back to the Huns." The cavalry replied: "King Zuoxian said that this is the only chance to revitalize our Huns. I also accidentally learned that we are chasing the wife of Gongsun Xu in Beijiang. Gongsun continued.

Another thing is that at that time all the ministries of the Huns were recruited. My three brothers and I were veterans, so we were under the command of Zuo Xianwang. I don’t know where the rest went. "

Gongsun Xu nodded. He waved his hand to tell the four of them to stay to heal their wounds. The battle here is over, but he doesn't know where Zhen Dao is now, so he has to keep chasing after him.
