The last three kingdoms

Chapter 783

Because of Liu Bao's death, Liu Yuan's hatred for Liu Yin was overwhelming, and he hated him so much that he would eat his flesh and burn his bones to ashes. However, the battle in Hanoi was stalemate, and Liu Yuan couldn't get out for a while, so he personally came to report the death of his father. Therefore, Liu Yuan suppressed the fire of revenge for the time being, focusing on the overall situation, and did not send troops back to help.

However, the development of the battle in Bingzhou made Liu Yuan also sit on pins and needles. After the Shu army took Zuoguo City, they marched all the way and captured Loufan, defeating Liu Yannian and extending their hands to the Jinzhong Plain.

The Jinzhong Plain is the old nest of the Huns. Since the Huns moved to Bingzhou, they have been living on the banks of the Fenshui River. After decades of operation, they have formed an indestructible rear base. This time, Liu Yuan’s uprising was based on Fen The forces of the five tribes of the Huns on both sides of the water.

Now that Liu Yin's army has occupied Ganyang, it is equivalent to driving a wedge into the base of the Huns. This thorn in the flesh made Liu Yuan, who is far away in Hanoi, feel the pain of his skin.

From the very beginning, Liu Yuan put all his energy on dealing with the state of Jin. He didn't regard Liu Yin as a potential danger at all. The river, the two sides have been in peace.

But to Liu Yuan's surprise, Liu Yin broke the deadlock first, crossed the Yellow River with his army, and launched an attack on the Xiongnu. It stands to reason that the number one enemy of Shu should be the Jin State. The fight was in full swing, and Liu Yin could easily reap huge benefits just by marching from Tongguan or Wuguan, but Liu Yin would give up the basics and seek the last, and insist on being an enemy of the Xiongnu. Liu Yuan couldn't figure it out. Why would you do that? It's completely illogical.

But in any case, the Shu army attacked the door, and the Huns had to fight. The gains and losses of Jinyang are related to the foundation of the Huns, and there is absolutely no room for loss. Liu Yuan can only give up the battle in Hanoi. Offensive, mobilize part of the troops, and come back from Hukou Pass.

Liu Yuan, with a crowd of [-], rushed from Tunliu to Jiexiu.

In order to raise food and grass, Luo Xi's Yong'an army had already marched south from Ganyang to Jiexiu, and fought an encounter with Liu Yuan's army going north.

Most of the Huns were cavalry, and they were extremely fast. When Luo Xi received the report, the Huns were only twenty miles away from the Yong'an Army.

The Yong'an army was all infantry, and if they retreated at this moment, they would definitely not be able to outrun the Huns' cavalry. However, Luo Xi was already prepared, and he ordered the formation of sidecars to resist the Huns' attack.

After several battles, the Shu army has become extremely proficient in the use of the side-car formations. The infantry has long lost the panic it used to face against the cavalry. The side-car formations can effectively resist the cavalry's attack. There is a consensus that in all previous battles, the van car has played an unparalleled role. Whether it is the Hexi Xianbei with bald tree function or the Di people of Qi Wannian, they have suffered a lot in front of the van car.

Therefore, when Luo Xi learned that the cavalry of the Huns was coming, the first thing he needed to prepare was a car. , The vans stand around and form a circle.

Luo Xi seemed quite confident. His previous combat experience told him that the cavalry of the Huns was nothing to be afraid of. In front of the van, they would also hit their heads and bleed.

The front vanguard of the Huns was Hu Yanlang, the younger brother of Hu Yanyi, the official censor, with a rough personality and extraordinary courage. On Pingchuan, I found a brigade of the Shu army. From a distance, the soldiers and horses of the Shu army were all infantry, and they were already in formation, ready to fight.

Hu Yanlang didn't pay attention to the infantry at all. In his opinion, the powerful Hun cavalry could easily crush the infantry of the Shu people. Hu Yanlang didn't care about that kind of vehicle at all. The powerful impact of the cavalry can destroy all targets in front of them.

Hu Yanlang gave an order, and the Xiongnu cavalry immediately launched an attack. Thousands of cavalry rushed forward, tens of thousands of horses galloped, swallowing rivers and mountains with anger, and the dust and smoke stirred up by the Xiongnu cavalry went straight to Xiaodou.

Luo Xi rode on the horse, watched the Huns rushing up aggressively, smiled slightly, and ordered the whole army to enter the fighting state and meet the enemy with all their strength.

The Xiongnu cavalry roared and rushed towards the van, but before they broke through to the front, arrows were fired from behind the van. The rain of arrows poured down like a rainstorm, causing the Hun cavalry to shoot arrows one after another. , Fell on his back.

The Xiongnu cavalry who were hit did not lose their belief in charging. In their view, this setback was nothing at all. It seemed that they could take advantage of the long-range attack on the archers of the Shu army, but the cavalry was extremely fast and entered the Shu army. After the range of the Shu army, the Shu army could only shoot two or three arrows at best. The Xiongnu cavalry could bear the price of such a little casualties. up.

Once the breakthrough is completed by the Huns cavalry, it will be a one-sided massacre. The Huns who are marching forward under the rain of arrows are expecting the feeling of wolves entering the flock. Murderous aura permeates them. At the beginning of the battle, the Huns cavalry collectively shouted excitedly, with awe-inspiring momentum.

But after hitting the wooden board of the van, Hu Yanlang realized that he had hit the iron plate. Those vans were all extremely strong. The impact force of the Huns cavalry was already very strong, but they hit the van The bones of the horses and cavalry were already broken, but the planks were unscathed.

Hu Yanlang couldn't help but gasped. The huge impact force produced by a Hun war horse galloping at high speed was quite terrifying, but the strange chariots dispatched by the Shu army were able to block the Hun cavalry. Besides, it's too unbelievable.

In the first round of attacks, the Huns lost hundreds of horses, but this did not shake Huyanlang's determination. In the second wave of attacks, Huyanlang mobilized more cavalry and launched more For a violent offensive.

But no surprise, Hu Yanlang failed again, losing more troops, and when Hu Yanlang was asked to meet Liu Yuan, he lowered his head and never dared to raise his head again.

"The last general is incompetent, please punish him." Hu Yanlang said with shame on his face.
