The Hu girl's attack was not successful because Xiahou Zijiang was not the only one in the tent, and the candlestick can indeed be used as a weapon of strike, but it also has to be knocked in the right place. For example, no matter what position you are in on TV and movies, you can knock the other party out of touch and kill him with one click. The possibility is not very high.
In addition, Hu Nu herself was not an assassin, so no one paid attention to her when she was on the ground, but when she rushed out, it immediately attracted the attention of Xiahou Zijiang's guards.
Xiahou Zijiang's guards showed warnings and blocked them, which made Hu Nv's daughter unable to get close to Xiahou Zijiang at all, so naturally she could not attack Xiahou Zijiang with a candlestick. In the end, she had to throw the candlestick out and hit Xiahou Zijiang's forehead.
It's not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting.
"Kill her! Kill them! Kill them!" Xiahou Zijiang covered his head, and Xuexue burst into pain. The capillaries on his forehead were rich. Although he only broke a small mouth, a lot of blood came out, and it looked very miserable.
Xiahou Zijiang's guard immediately drew his sword and killed all the three Hu women in the tent. But Xiahou Zijiang still couldn't help but feel regretful. In his consciousness, women were just pets, tools, and slaves. No matter how happy he was when he played poker with Hu women before, these Hu women dared to hurt him now!
This almost made Xiahou Zijiang lose his mind. Seeing that Hu Nu died, he couldn't relieve his anger. He even pulled a knife to slash. Until Hu Nu's head was cut off and then kicked him away, he was breathing and calming down slightly. The guards of Xiahou Zijiang, who were standing beside him could only watch helplessly and dared not go up to persuade him. He knew that it was useless to persuade him. It was not until Xiahou Zijiang finally stopped that he protected Xiahou Zijiang out of the tent.
But in this way, the delay will be long...
The Hu cavalry on the Cao army, which had no one to lead, basically did not work hard.
Just as Xiahou Zijiang said before, they recruited Hu soldiers, but in fact they did not have any loyalty or disloyalty, but simply hired them. Just like Hu Chuquan accepted employment from many aspects of the Han Dynasty in the early days, and they would listen to whoever gave them money. Perhaps the previous stage was to fight local rebellion, and the next stage was to become bodyguards.
In this case, these Hu soldiers actually rely heavily on the command of the Han people. They move when they have orders, and they are too lazy to move without orders, and even bargain when orders are issued. In addition, these Hu soldiers are not completely free of concepts of good and evil. Although they have accepted the employment of Cao's army, they do not agree with Xiahou Zijiang's behavior of slaughtering and humiliating the herdsmen of nomadic tribes and herdsmen who are just to satisfy their personal desires.
Xiahou Zijiang couldn't get out of the tent, so these Hu soldiers naturally didn't work so hard, especially after seeing the power of these Han soldiers from Shi Bazhi, they just shouted and didn't approach. They watched the fighting lively and ran around. In fact, it was like the enemy was advancing and we retreated. Wherever Shi Bazhi went, they ran away...
The Hu people did not work hard, and the Han cavalry of Cao's army had not been formed in the tent for too long, and did not form an effective resistance array. When Xiahou Zijiang came out, they were facing this state of almost scattered like sand. If Xiahou Zijiang was a powerful general, he could not say that he could turn the tide, but Xiahou Zijiang was not. Therefore, when he saw this scene, even though the number of people was obviously more than Shi Bashi's people, he still issued a decisive order to retreat without hesitation.
So, with the order issued by Xiahou Zijiang, the battle ended in just a moment and a half.
Xiahou Zijiang didn't care about any ambition at this time, and all the stimulation turned into uneasiness and fear at this moment. He didn't know where Shi Bazhi came from, nor did he know why the cavalry and horses came here. Those thoughts that the cavalry and horses were no big deal seemed to flow out with the blood on his forehead and fell into the yellow sand.
Shi Bazhi couldn't believe it when he saw this. Because even though Shi Bazhi knew that the soldiers he led were directly under Zhang He's cavalry, they were naturally elite, but even if they were brave and good at fighting, they still faced several times the enemy. If the enemy fought hard, what would be the chance of winning in the end of this surprise attack? Shi Bazhi was not sure at all.
Logically speaking, elite cavalry can be calculated as five to ten steps, but when facing the same cavalry, they can only be considered three to five cavalry. After all, if cavalry can use mobility to mobilize infantry and then tear the formation apart, even ten times or more infantry arrays will not be enough for cavalry to attack and trample, but cavalry is different. If the opponent's cavalry cannot win, they can run. In a short period of time, the speed of the cavalry on both sides is almost the same, and it is basically impossible to form a large-scale trampling effect.
Therefore, if the cavalry against infantry, the infantry will often suffer heavy casualties. However, if the cavalry against cavalry and cavalry array collapses, there may not be as many casualties as infantry.
Just like now, Xiahou Zijiang escaped with his men, but in fact, the number of casualties in the whole process was not very large.
Shi Bazhi almost subconsciously wanted to chase and kill him, but was persuaded by Zhang He's subordinates beside him, "The general has given him an order! Be careful of ambushing and not chasing him!"
Unlike Xiahou Zijiang, although Shi Bazhi felt unwilling to accept Zhang He's orders, he still obeyed Zhang He's orders. So Shi Bazhi and others gathered the queue and followed Xiahou Zijiang slowly, without wasting their horsepower and slashing wildly.
Interestingly, the ambush that Zhang He had expected really appeared!
Xiahou Shang came with a large army and met Xiahou Zijiang who was retreating!
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! After all, in the desert, the place where smoke and dust rise is the best Taoist mark.
When Xiahou Zijiang saw Xiahou Shang, he shouted without hesitation without any hesitation: "Brother comes to save me!"
Xiahou Shang's eyes twitched, and he cursed in his heart, "Aren't you capable?" Why are you covered in blood now and screaming like you were stomped on your tail? But the problem is that Xiahou Shang really can't say that he won't help him, so he can only curse in his heart and then order to respond."
When Shi Bazhi saw Xiahou Shang and others arrived, he couldn't help but hold back the war horses, "The general is indeed a magical calculation! Cao thief set up an ambush!"
Because Zhang He had told him to be careful before, Shi Bazhi and others were mentally prepared, and saw this, they turned around and ran back.
Xiahou Zijiang's temper was so angry that when he saw that there were many people in his family, he immediately became vigorous and rushed to Xiahou Shang. He screamed, "Catch up! He actually dared to chase after me! He really took the courage to leopard! Chase! Kill them all!"
When Xiahou Shang saw Shi Bazhi and others turning around and ran away. The number was not large, he couldn't help but want to chase him. Although he was too lazy to pay more attention to Xiahou Zijiang, if these cavalrymen in front of him could win some heads, they would be more or less meritorious!
If you have to confront each other head-on, you may have some hesitation, but isn’t it enough to chase and kill the fleeing soldiers and horses?
But when Xiahou Shang chased after him, something was wrong. Why are these escaping Hussars not tired? Why do these war horses look like soldiers who don’t consume much energy, and they still run so vigorously?
After chasing for a while, he still couldn't get much closer. However, the Cao cavalry in front suddenly burst out with loud noises. Xiahou Shang also looked up, but he couldn't help but be stunned, and his face turned pale!
I saw a big flag erected on the small earth bun on the side, and a big word was displayed on it in the wind!
"open"!
Could it be Zhang He?!
Xiahou Shang suddenly jumped up in his heart, and then he hurriedly issued an order, "The whole army is in formation!"
Running further is equivalent to giving up your ribs and butt to the cavalry that suddenly appeared on this side. Or strictly speaking, it was the original colleague...
Seeing Zhang He again, Xiahou Shang's heart felt like a stick was stabbed directly into his heart, and then it stirred up. The fragmented and messy memory residue suddenly surged, making his eyes a little turbid and bloodshot. "Traitor! Damn, shameless traitor!"
Later generations often say that after breaking up, they will be quiet and happy, or that they will be happy to see others succeed at a classmate meeting. But in fact, those are on the surface, or in movies and TV. In life, most people have normal mentality and normal thinking...
Xiahou Shang looked up slightly and saw Zhang He and others on the small slope with exquisite armor and even complete armor, which was even outrageous. He couldn't help but feel a little sour. Not to mention Zhang He's exquisite armor, even the guards and cavalry beside Zhang He were all wearing all the scales that only military generals could afford. In addition, they were wearing trousers and some red tassels on the top. As for the necklaces, there were even a lot of shirts. The armor skirt was hanging down to the knees, and even the leather boots seemed to be inlaid with several iron pieces, which seemed to be written on their faces and wearing them on their bodies!
Looking at the war horses that Zhang He and others were riding, they were not only tall, but also wearing horse clothes. They also had leather armor in the middle of the horse's face and on the horse's neck!
Looking at the other party and looking at himself, Xiahou Shang seemed to feel the malice of the whole world towards him...
Why?
At that time, you, the one with the surname Zhang, had to pay homage to me to obey the order!
And now...
For a moment, Xiahou Shang felt that he had mixed feelings and thoughts.
Xiahou Shang said silently. The Cao army around him knew Zhang He and some didn't know him, but whether he knew him or not, he could still see this person with clothes. He originally thought that his family was well-equipped, but after this comparison, he suddenly felt that his breathing voice was three points lower!
The cavalry of the Cao army actually tends to be light cavalry type. Most people only have two-dang armor and better military academy, and can probably be divided into truncated armor. The higher the level of generals, they can have full-body armor. Of course, the equipment gap between the Cao army's cavalry is a multifaceted reason, not only the factors in terms of money, but also the division of class, the load on war horses, etc.
Therefore, most of the cavalry of Cao's army only have leather armor like vests, with bows and arrows and short swords, mainly cavalry and shooting, and are responsible for patrolling and harassing the enemy's formation; while the other ones are heavy cavalry, with relatively tight protection, but at most they only add a few metal accessories, with two short arms on the upper body to protect the upper arm, and most of them will carry spears to charge head-on, to scatter or split the enemy's formation.
As for the recruited Hu cavalry, they basically do not care about military armor, and some also have armor, but most Hu cavalry are armorless, like consumables, and they just shout WAAAAGH to make energy to save damage.
Xiahou Shang had heard of and even met the cavalry of the Cavalry before, but he always believed that after he went to the Cavalry, people like Zhang He were like these Hu cavalry under his command, they were consumables, so at most they were just intentions, and it was impossible to have any excellent equipment...
And now it seems that not only does man have armor, but also horses have armor!
The key is that these war horses look taller than the ones under their crotch!
It's like Zhiqian meets a playboy, and the 18th-tier Internet celebrities meet a big star in capital selling goods.
In fact, in the Han Dynasty, there were several suppression chains in terms of force. Shandong people were afraid of Guanxi people, then southern people were afraid of northern people, generally Hu people were afraid of middle-class tribes such as Wuhuan, and then Wuhuan and others were afraid of Xianbei...
The fear here is psychological weakness before the fight. Just like Jiangdong has to fight, every time he wants to fight Jiangbei, he hasn't fought much, and it's just a bunch of people who oppose it.
Of course, in literature, Shandong people claim to be the best in the world and are unparalleled in words. However, since Qinglong Temple has been found, there seems to be some problems, but as long as Qinglong Temple is aside, Shandong is still the best in the world in literature.
The direct cavalry under Zhang He now has more or less "equipped cavalry", but it is not purely heavy armored cavalry. After all, heavy armored cavalry bears too high weight. Even the Xiliang horse can only sprint one or two rounds at full speed. Although the explosive power of the combat is ridiculously strong, the fuel consumption is also ridiculously high.
Therefore, only Gan Feng has full armored cavalry. As for Zhang He, Zhao Yun and others, most of them use simplified versions of cavalry. Of course, Zhang He and others were able to use cavalry because they had armor and horses, but also had a very hidden lifting point, which was that their stirrups were made of special models...
At first, the stirrup was just a simple hanging ring, and the feet were hung in. In many cases, the cavalry had to clamp the war horse with their legs to prevent themselves from falling off the horse. If they were wearing dozens of kilograms or even heavier riding armor, the physical energy was consumed too much. If there was no such special wide stirrup assistance, the waist and legs would inevitably consume too much over time, which would cause the force to be removed. The wide and special stirrup that provided the soles of the feet could allow the rider to exert full force on the horse's back, rather than using the little iron rings to exert force.
Zhang He looked at his old colleague, then silently pulled down his mask, then raised his spear, and rushed down the small earth slope directly!
The Cao army's cavalry suddenly became in chaos!
There is a psychological shadow in itself, just like a jackal at the low end of the food chain. Suddenly, he saw a tiger at the top of the food chain. He didn't have to fight and his legs were weakened first! In addition, Zhang He was very powerful, so these ordinary Cao army cavalry did not dare to rob the enemy's edge. When they encountered the impact of Zhang He and other cavalrymen, they would collapse instantly, which was reasonable.
Seeing that Zhang He and others were very brave and equipped with cavalry, Xiahou Shang was so scared that he was completely disheartened. When he was in a panic, he forgot to count how many people Zhang He had. However, when he saw Zhang He's cavalry emerged from the small earth slope like endlessly, and then rushed down waves, just like there were millions of troops hidden behind the small earth slope. He didn't even dare to wait for a while, and then ran away. Of course, it was not clear that Zhang He didn't actually look as many people as he looked. After waiting for a few waves, the earth slope disappeared...
Not to mention, Xiahou is still worthy of being a relative of Xiahou Yuan. He has more or less a skill in driving away, especially when it comes to escaping, and he is even more specialized in running away, roaring and running away!
Zhang He actually did not directly cause much damage. After the war, only twenty or thirty people died directly under the sword and gun. However, more than ten times the number of people killed and injured by Cao's army himself.
However, Zhang He originally came to patrol the military camp with his hands, so there were not many people at all. So even when he saw Xiahou Shang and others fleeing, he could not say that he would continue to chase. After chasing for a little while or two, he took off his war horse and went back smoothly.
On the way back, Zhang He seemed to have these Xiahou horses obviously came to the military camp. In Zhang He's sense, the military camp was the tentacles of the cavalry in the northern region. Cao's army obviously wanted to lure the military camp people to attack, and then set up an ambush!
This is how Cao Jun couldn't help but want to make trouble!
Cao Jun took action first!
Zhang He led his troops to rush back, and he wanted to report this matter to Zhao Yun...
But what’s interesting is that on the Cao army side, Xiahou Shang also thought so. The cavalry was going to cause trouble, and it was the cavalry that took the initiative to do it!
Xiahou Shang was also worried about the differences. He not only asked Xiahou Zijiang, but also asked the soldiers who followed Xiahou Zijiang in detail. The final conclusion was that Xiahou Zijiang did not provoke the cavalry and horses at all. He just attacked a small nomadic tribe and then encountered the attack of the cavalry!
In this way, it is indeed the first move of the cavalry and the horse!
Traitor Zhang He planned all this!
This traitor must have wanted to attack the rear camp of Cao's army! He even wanted to attack Yuyang!
There is no way behind him, Zhao Yun, the Northern Region Protector, who is the cavalry, behind him!
It's over, the cavalry is coming!
This is the first time the cavalry will take action!
Ask for help, ask for help immediately!
