Liu Yu's eyes flashed, and his tone suddenly became firm: "The best result is to fight them back and forth and stay in a stalemate, making them think that we only have this little strength and can only
But there is nowhere to retreat, we can only hold on hard. So the key to this battle is to make Ji Nan believe that we have used all our strength, and as long as he attacks again, he can annihilate us!"
He Wuji rushed to ask: "Then how can we make him believe this?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "I want him to see that the person beating the drum behind you is also going to join the battle, so that he can believe it!"
He Wuji suddenly realized it and said with a smile: "I understand, if the enemy sees us even playing drums, they will definitely feel that we have tried our best. At this time, they will definitely attack, and here
Before, we asked your front army to hold off the opponent's probing troops and make them look a little weak, right?"
Liu Yu nodded: "That's right."
Tan Pingzhi suddenly said: "But even so, if we lure all the enemy troops here, can we eat these more than ten thousand cavalry? You must know that we only have more than a thousand men and horses. Even if we kill more than ten thousand pigs, we will still be able to kill more than ten thousand pigs."
It’s not that easy.”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "You will know in a moment. As long as the Huns cavalry enters this deserted grassland, they will never get out again. Everyone, please go back and make arrangements. Everything will be done according to my banner!"
All the military academies performed a military salute in unison: "You have the order!"
Baoerji's speech gradually stopped, but the howls of the Hun cavalry were heard one after another. Following several shrill whistles, the Hun cavalry lined up in a line began to accelerate slowly, starting from the walking horse.
At first, it gradually changed to a trot, speeding up, and even sprinting. Less than 300 steps away from the Beifu Army infantry square, at the slaughterhouses full of corpses, their speed had also increased to the maximum, and their iron hooves rose up.
, trampling the headless corpses lying on the ground until their flesh and blood were mixed together with the black earth.
The running Hun horses and the knights on them were stimulated by the smell of blood in the air, and their eyes turned blood red. The howling sound was accompanied by the shrill sound of the wind, heading straight towards the infantry of the Beifu Army.
When the formation came, it looked like it was as powerful as a rainbow.
The tiger infantrymen of the Beifu Army all had a cold look in their eyes. The infantrymen held long poles and raised them diagonally upwards. The infantrymen in the first row knelt directly on the ground. The four-meter-long poles were firm and unyielding.
Shift pointed forward, like a steel forest, densely packed, even if they were equipped with armor and cavalry, they would not dare to attack by force when encountering such a firm and dense formation.
The leaders of each team standing at the front of the team were shouting orders: "Steady, steady!"
These firm orders made the hoarse shouts of the ranging soldiers: "The enemy is xx steps away!" become less frightening.
Liu Yu stood behind 500 front-line commanders. His position was a small dirt bag, about the height of a person, which allowed him to clearly see every move in front. The Huns cavalry had already bent their bows.
The riders on the front line stood in their stirrups and straightened up, while more than a thousand cold arrows shone in the sun, pointing directly at the Beifu Army formation more than 200 steps away.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Liu Yu's mouth: "Crossbowman, flying geese!"
Sun Chu quickly raised a yellow flag. Ten infantry squadrons of 500 men in front of the Beifu soldiers were stationed according to the standard pattern of alternating between infantry vanguards and garrisons. They were not lined up in a line, but squadrons and garrisons.
The teams staggered with each other. The distance between the two teams was about fifty steps, which was exactly the width of one team. The five in front were the front troops, holding up long poles, while the five troops in the back were holding the Bailiansu Iron Sword.
, ready to step forward for hand-to-hand combat at any time.
As Liu Yu issued this order, six or seven crossbowmen from each team suddenly rushed out from behind the front troops. They held repeating infantry crossbows in their hands, and every three or four people spread out to one side.
When the Hun cavalry horses took forty or fifty steps, the six or seven crossbowmen in each team stretched out diagonally forward and opened up on the side of their own formation, just like flying in the sky.
Two rows of wild geese formed the same character, and in front of the entire garrison were these crossbowmen.
Tan Pingzhi grabbed a repeating infantry crossbow and stood in front of the vanguard. There were more than ten crossbowmen on both sides of him. His voice was like thunder, even amid the howling of the Hun cavalry and the neighing of the war horses.
Among them, each soldier behind him can still hear clearly: "Aim quickly, form a group of three, shoot the horse, prepare!"
The roar of the ranging soldiers echoed in front of the formation: "The enemy is one hundred and fifty steps away!"
Tan Pingzhi's roar sounded almost at the same time: "Shoot! Three consecutive shots!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of a machine spring firing, and the shrill whistle of the crossbow arrows piercing the air immediately overwhelmed the howling wind. More than two hundred crossbow arrows were fired at a distance of one hundred and fifty steps.
The distance was so short that the Hun cavalry didn't even have time to dodge.
There was a sound of horses neighing, and the more than forty war horses in front were immediately nailed with as many as ten, as few as two or three crossbow arrows on the horses' necks and heads. Many war horses directly pounced on them.
The ground fell, and more of them were jumping around because of the severe pain, and the rider on the horse was directly thrown off.
The fallen war horses became natural obstacles. The Huns' cavalry charged in a line. The distance between the back row and the front row was only twenty steps. This distance was reached almost in the blink of an eye, even for the Huns who were highly skilled in riding.
People, it is inevitable that some people will bump into the war horses and cavalry in front of them, causing the cavalry behind them to trip and fall.
Because the Huns cavalry were attacking at full speed and were thrown off the high-speed horseback, people were knocked unconscious from the fall. Many people broke their necks, cracked their internal organs, and died, but the living people
He often faints and cannot get up again.
After three consecutive crossbow bolts flew by, the Huns' cavalry had already rushed within a hundred steps and shot down more than a hundred of them, who were lying on the ground. The cavalry behind them either stepped over or around these unlucky ghosts, and continued.
As they charged forward, the riders in the first line who had not been hit by arrows all unloaded their arrows and aimed them at the heavily armored crossbowmen on the opposite side with a fierce look in their eyes.
Tan Pingzhi laughed and shouted: "Crossbowman, retreat!"
The crossbowmen who finished shooting the three arrows threw their crossbows to the ground, turned around and ran back. Behind the garrison, more than ten sergeants holding shields ran up to them and opened their swords, which were more than half a person tall.
The large shield pointed upwards to provide protection for these retreating crossbowmen.
Baoerji's voice sounded wildly in front of the battle line: "Shoot arrows and shoot them to death!"
