Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 219 Cavalry Victory

If you look at it from the sky, the Beifu army is like a sharp knife at this time, splitting the Xianbei cavalry like tofu at once.In just half a stick of incense, a thousand-man team that rushed forward was wiped out.Within a stick of incense, the second thousand-man team also suffered more than half of the casualties.

The third thousand-man team was a bit stronger, and they were all defeated after holding on for one stick of incense (5 minutes per stick of incense).

The situation deteriorated so fast that even Murong De had no time to support them, and the three thousand cavalry led by the deputy general were annihilated by the cavalry of the Beifu Army.

Murong De lost his voice: "When did the Han people become so capable of fighting?"

In the Battle of Liantai that year, although Ran Wei's army was very strong, it was not invincible.Far from making them feel hopeless like now.Except for the [-] cavalry who shot and killed more than [-] but less than [-] cavalry of the Beifu Army with bows and arrows during the battle, the Xianbei cavalry hardly caused any casualties to the Beifu Army cavalry in the collision battle.

A clean cavalry charge ended in less than a quarter of an hour.The Yan army paid the price of annihilating the entire army of [-] elite troops, while the loss of cavalry of the Beifu army was definitely not [-] cavalry.

The death rate actually reached an astonishing six to one.

If Ran Min had such a cavalry at the beginning, even if there were only four thousand cavalry, or even three thousand cavalry, I am afraid that Murong's troops would not have a chance to enter the customs.

Of course, the population of Han Chinese in this era has dropped to a very alarming level.There are less than 400 million Han people in the north, but there are more than [-] million Hu people active in the Central Plains.

At this moment, a young general said: "General Hussars, the general doesn't know why the Han people have become so capable of fighting. But the general knows that if we don't retreat, they will come to kill us."

Murongde suddenly came to his senses, and found that all the Xianbei soldiers around him were shaking like chaff, with cold sweat streaming down their faces.Murong De knew that the Yan army had no fighting spirit at this time, even though he still had more than [-] riders, even if he had [-] riders, these soldiers did not dare to fight with the Beifu army.

Gao Jingzong couldn't help being very excited when he saw that the hussars had finally become the nightmare of the world's cavalry like in history.

Gao Jingzong roared: "Soldiers, do you still have strength?"

All the soldiers also roared: "Yes, yes, yes..."

Gao Jingzong said: "Well, let's charge for a while longer. The Yan army on the other side is fighting the Xianbei King's Banner. He should also be a prince. Murong Chui is a bit lonely in the prisoner camp. The governor wants to find a companion for Murong Chui!"

"Haha..." All the soldiers burst out laughing.

Gao Jingzong yelled: "Now the governor orders, the whole army will kill you!"

"Tear to your heart's content—"

The Beifu army cavalry rode their horses and raised their whips, and rushed towards the northern Xianbei army.In fact, Gao Jingzong made two-handed preparations for this battle. If the hussars were not as powerful as the later generations boasted, he would fight a little and then retreat to let the Xianbei army taste the taste of grenades.

Gao Jingzong has a lot of black powder. Although the power of black powder is limited, the Xianbei people will definitely be afraid of this unknown weapon, and they will no longer have the courage and will to fight.

Fortunately, the hussars succeeded, so everything was perfect.

"withdraw--!!"

Although he knew that the order was useless, Murong De still issued such an order.Then he took his personal guards and evacuated northward frantically.The purpose, of course, is Meng County.

At the most critical moment of life and death, Murong De did not completely lose his mind.He knew very well in his heart that the defeat was like a mountain, and the situation in front of him was already difficult to deal with, and it was absolutely impossible to counterattack and turn the tables.This game is definitely lost, but Meng County is still nearly [-] miles away, and there are still [-] to [-] fresh troops.If as many people as possible can be withdrawn from here as soon as possible, there is still a lot to do once they join the Yan army in Meng County!

It's just that Murong De wants to leave, but it's not that easy.What the Xianbei Yan army lost this time was not the Han infantry, but the Beifu army cavalry. They were all four-legged animals instead of walking. Who would be slower than whom?What's more, the war horses are all of the same breed, and most of them belong to Xianbei horses.

With a distance of thirty miles and a road of flesh and blood of thirty miles, the defeated Xianbei people are not willing to be captured without a fight, let alone wait for death.So they fled and scattered, and the remaining group who didn't have time to escape, counterattacked on the spot and started a fight between trapped beasts.

It's just that any resistance is futile in the face of the charge of the Beifu cavalry phalanx.

They had no time to slash the soldiers of the Beifu army with the scimitars in their hands, and they had already been stabbed into blood gourds by the spears of the Beifu army.

Of course, the cavalry of the Beifu army also suffered casualties, especially many Xianbei cavalry used backfire to block the cavalry of the Beifu army.

When Murong De fled back to Meng County, only less than [-] of the more than [-] cavalry came back. Where did the other soldiers go?You don't need to ask, you know, either you were killed on the spot, or you fled away.

In fact, Murong De guessed wrong this time. Although Gao Jingzong gave the order to kill as much as he could, Liu Yunfei saw the real hope of driving the Xianbei people out of the Central Plains.

Without Gao Jingzong's permission, he shouted in Xianbei language on the battlefield: "Kill a white prisoner and bring the head, or bring two horses and surrender to avoid death."

Liu Yunfei's words were like pouring a ladle of water into a boiling oil pan, which immediately made the Xianbei cavalry boil.I have to say that Liu Yunfei's condition is too dark.However, the Xianbei people, who were frightened by the cavalry of the Beifu Army, had no choice.You can't beat them, and you don't even have a chance to fight back.Surrender is the only option. Although the Xianbei people know that they may not be alive if they surrender, and even if they are alive, they will be reduced to slaves. However, even if they are slaves, they still want to live.

As a result, the ugly side of human nature on the battlefield is fully displayed.The comrades-in-arms, compatriots, and brothers who were just eating out of the pot just now turned swords and soldiers against each other in a blink of an eye.

A Xianbei cavalryman held a bleeding head in one hand and said in broken Chinese: "Don't kill me, I surrender..."

But before he finished speaking, he was stabbed by a Xianbei cavalry behind him.

A dying Xianbei wounded soldier with half of his shoulders hanging suddenly felt a chill behind his back, and when he looked down, a wolf-toothed arrow shot out of his chest.He naturally knew that this was a shot from a spiked arrow at close range... With a plop, the Xianbei cavalry fell to the horse...

This kind of scene similar to cannibalism was staged everywhere, and the Xianbei cavalry began to boil.Some murders were for surrender, while others were for self-protection. Thousands of cavalrymen fought with swords and swords, killing with great joy.Instead, the cavalrymen of the Beifu Army folded their arms and acted as spectators.

A bloody cannibalism did not stop until the Xianbei people were exhausted.However, at this time, less than [-] Xianbei cavalry were alive, and most of them were still wounded.
