After He Lian died in battle, the battle ended quickly.
Because Xu Wei and the others did not have cavalry, they rode on horses to the Xianbei soldiers and quickly fled the battlefield. He had no way to pursue them. Before fleeing, Murong Peng also blew the retreat horn to inform Luri that they were about to retreat.
Luri Demo, who was fighting fiercely with Wang Yong more than ten miles away, heard the retreating Niu Jiao, and his expression changed drastically. He knew that this was Murong Peng's failure. If he had defeated Lei Gong, he should lead the cavalry to support them now, instead of
Sound the retreat horn!
Luri Deyan said to his men: "It was Murong Peng and the others who blew the horn of retreat. They have been defeated. We will leave the battle immediately."
"Woo, woo, woo!"
As Luri's deduction blew the horn of retreat, the Xianbei cavalry withdrew from the battlefield. They had just carried out more than ten rounds of fierce attacks, but found that it was difficult for them to suppress Lei Gong's men. Their losses were even greater than Lei Gong's.
There are many subordinates, and facing such elite Xianbei cavalry, they are willing to retreat!
So the Xianbei cavalry quickly gathered around Luri Deyan, and then quickly withdrew from the battlefield under his leadership!
The same situation also happened on Tuoba Mo's side, and this war was completely over.
Wang Yong looked at his exhausted men and did not continue the pursuit. He looked at almost all of his men who were injured, and their horses were panting. It was obvious that this battle had also exhausted them.
Luri was an experienced veteran. He divided the cavalry into several groups. One group entangled Wang Yong's cavalry, and the rest attacked the pikemen phalanx. The two infantry phalanxes were overrun by the Xianbei people. If he hadn't brought the cavalry escort, this would have been impossible.
This time they would suffer more casualties than the Xianbei people. Although they could not say that they were defeated in the battle, their losses were greater than those of the Xianbei people.
He cursed: "These Xianbei people are really tenacious. Even though they have all the advantages in equipment, they were beaten like this. If there was no equipment advantage, I'm afraid we would all be slaughtered by the Xianbei people!"
This reminded Wang Yong of several years ago when they rebelled with the great virtuous teacher. They used wooden sticks and farm tools to resist the imperial cavalry. At that time, tens of thousands of them were slaughtered like lambs. They managed to escape under the leadership of Old Man Wang.
.
The Xianbei people have been able to fight against the big Han for decades and still have the upper hand. They are obviously capable. Even though Wang Yong has the advantage in equipment, he still can't fight evenly.
He secretly thought: "From now on, all my soldiers will be replaced by iron armor. You Xianbei people will definitely not be able to escape."
On the central battlefield, although Murong Peng escaped, there were still a large number of Xianbei people who had lost their horses or were injured and chose to surrender because they were very aware of current affairs.
When Wang Ge and the others saw the Xianbei people surrendering, they laughed easily and said, "We are victorious!"
Xu Wei nodded after hearing this and said with a little pity: "It's a pity that we don't have cavalry, otherwise we could have left ten thousand more Xianbei people!"
At least 10,000 Xianbei corpses and wounded were left here. If Wang Yong and the others could also leave 10,000 Xianbei people, the Xianbei people would have lost 20,000 soldiers today, plus five or six more were lost in the previous battle.
Thousands of people, it seems that more than 10,000 people were lost in Pingchengwu Fort. It is said that 30% to 40% of the 100,000 Xianbei people have been lost in the battle. This is a loss enough to collapse an army. Xu Wei does not think
The Xianbei people now still have the strength to fight again, so retreat is their only option.
War has always been a game for the brave. The first to die are all those who can fight and fight. Most of the rest are mediocre people or people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. When all the brave people die, the mediocre people
They will flee under the leadership of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. This is why few armies can withstand 30% death. Now there are no more beheaders among the Xianbei people who have the desire to fight.
"Commander Qu, I am reporting that we killed the Xianbei Khan and his company!" a staff officer reported happily.
Xu Wei was surprised: "He Lian didn't say he was a coward, but he actually fought on the front line of the battlefield?"
Don't look at the Romance of the Three Kingdoms where military generals are often told to fight against each other, but in real history, it is difficult for a coach to die on the front line, because the generals are protected by personal guards. As long as the battle situation is unfavorable, they will protect and evacuate as soon as possible.
That's why Guan Yu became a martial saint, killed Yan Liang and beheaded Wen Chou, and rose to the rank of general among thousands of armies. He is the only one clearly recorded in history.
The staff officer smiled and said: "It is said that it was because he was the first to escape when he fought with Wang Yong last time. The Xianbei people's generals were dissatisfied. They must go to the battlefield and make contributions, otherwise they would destroy him as a great Khan.
He Lian had no choice but to go to the battlefield! As a result, he happened to bump into the Mo Dao team and could not escape."
Xu Wei was a little stunned, He Lian wouldn't be so unlucky! The Mo Dao Team can be said to be the first heavy infantry in the world. When everyone doesn't know its efficacy, it can obviously explode with greater power, and
Lian was unlucky enough to bump into it!
Xu Wei didn't know that although the Xianbei people were the overlords of the grasslands, the 100 years of history obviously did not belong to them, but to the heroes of the Three Kingdoms. They had sucked up the luck around them, so that the Xianbei people could no longer prosper.
Every time a hero appears, they will die quickly.
Like their first great Khan Tan Shihuai, he could have become the strongest enemy of the Han Dynasty, but he died young at the hands of Ding Ling people.
Even in the original history, the second-generation Great Khan Helian was shot to death by the Northlanders when he attacked the Northland. In other words, he did not die in the hands of the Han army, but in the hands of ordinary people of the Han Dynasty.
Without saying a word that the Han Dynasty was really full of martial virtue and convinced others with his virtue, a few ordinary people ruined the fortune of the Xianbei people for decades.
After He Lian's death, the entire Xianbei army did not sweat, but completely fell apart. It was not until decades later that a man named Kebi could make the Xianbei people rise. Kebi can even appear in modern games.
, in history, after Kebineng became powerful, he launched a war to unify the entire Xianbei Kingdom, hoping to establish a powerful grassland empire again.
Feeling deeply threatened, Wang Xiong, the governor of Youzhou in Wei State, sent the assassin Han Long to assassinate him. He actually succeeded! (I think this is something worthy of being recorded in history books. Han Long is comparable to assassins such as Nie Zheng, Yao Li, and Jing Ke.
, but such an important event, such a powerful assassin, was actually forgotten by the historians of the past dynasties. If it were not for the Internet, it is estimated that no one in later generations would have known about such an assassin who changed the history of China.) His regime collapsed immediately, and the Xianbei nation once again fell into
In the melee, it can only be said that the Xianbei people are so unlucky that they lack luck and cannot suppress the luck of a country.
Under the leadership of his men, Xu Wei quickly came to He Lian's body. He took a closer look and found that it was the Xianbei Khan He Lian who had spoken to him that day!
Xu Hao said happily: "Okay, our big enemy in Mayi has been eliminated. Helian died here and no new Khan was elected. The Xianbei people will be in chaos for a while! We in Mayi will be safe for a while.
Yes! Who killed He Lian?"
Chief Bao Yu said: "It's him!"
He pushed Duan Peng out.
Xu Wei smiled and said: "What's your name?"
"Duan Peng!"
Xu Wei said happily: "You have made great contributions. After the war is over, go to the military academy to study. I hope you can become an excellent officer in the future!"
Bao Yu and others looked at Duan Peng with envy. After entering the military academy, he was at least a camp commander after he came out. For ordinary soldiers, it was indeed a leap to the top.
Duan Peng was overjoyed and said: "Thank you so much, Qu Shuai!"
After confirming Helian's death, the soldiers continued to clean the battlefield, while commanders like Xu Wei gathered together and began to count casualties.
Wang Yong was the first to say: "We suffered over 10,000 casualties, including 3,000 killed and 7,000 injured. However, the Xianbei people also suffered over 10,000 casualties."
Then Wang Yong said unwillingly: "If two phalanxes had not been broken, the casualties on my side would have been reduced by half. The training time is still too short. The soldiers will panic when they encounter the Xianbei cavalry on the battlefield.
If they were professional soldiers, I could wipe out all the Xianbei cavalry!"
Xu Wei rolled his eyes and said: "We only have 300,000 soldiers in total, but you want to raise 100,000 soldiers. Are you planning to let all the soldiers eat sand?"
Li Bin, the commander-in-chief of Youyi, said: "The casualties on my side are slightly smaller. More than 2,000 soldiers were killed and more than 3,000 soldiers were injured! But the results were not much. There were probably more than 5,000 Xianbei people left."
Wang Ge of the Chinese Army said: "We lost 1,000 soldiers, suffered more than 3,000 casualties, and left behind 10,000 Xianbei corpses. Most of the battle results belong to the soldiers of Modao Camp."
Wang Ge said happily: "Mo Dao Camp can suppress the cavalry head-on. After this experience, we should equip ourselves with more equipment."
Xu Wei said helplessly: "We can't afford to support them. Just raising these 3,000 people will cost 300 million yuan!"
Even Ma Yi could hardly afford to raise three thousand young tycoons. If we had the money, we might as well build more pikemen.
Finally, Xu Wei concluded: "In other words, even if we defeated the Xianbei people, we still suffered 20,000 casualties. The war really resulted in 1,000 casualties to the enemy and 800 self-loss."
This battle can be said to be a lose-lose situation. The better thing about Xu Wei and others is that they won and most of the wounded could be saved. However, the Xianbei people were defeated and lost 20,000 people, which meant they were completely lost.
Mayi already lacked young and strong labor force, and now he had to allocate manpower to take care of the wounded. In addition, the autumn harvest was about to happen, but he brought a large army to fight the Xianbei people. Because this battle would affect Mayi for at least a year.
development, a huge loss!
The words are divided into two parts. Xu Wei and his friends were so happy when they defeated the enemy, but the Xianbei people were so depressed when they lost the battle!
After returning to the camp, Luri Deyan and others found Murong Peng and asked: "You have 30,000 elites in your hands, how could you be defeated so quickly? Lei Gong is surrounded by infantry!"
Murong Peng said in frustration: "The armored soldiers around Lei Gong are indeed his most powerful elites. They have a terrible long sword. Our warriors rush in front of these armored soldiers, but they will cut them in half regardless of whether they are human or horse.
We were all frightened. Thunder Lord's 3,000 armored troops directly overwhelmed my 30,000 warriors! We lost more than 10,000 warriors in this battle!"
Three thousand infantry actually overwhelmed 30,000 cavalry. If the man in front of him was not his old comrade, he would have thought this was the work of a coward!
Tuoba Mo said helplessly: "This battle can't go on. I've also killed more than 5,000 warriors. No one is willing to continue fighting!"
Lüri sighed and said: "5,000 soldiers died on my side, which means that we lost 20,000 soldiers in today's battle. If we include all the soldiers who died since the attack on Mayi, we are almost dead 4
There are tens of thousands of soldiers, and the casualties are almost half. The soldiers are beginning to fear Lei Gong’s men and are about to retreat!"
Then he looked around and said strangely: "The Khan didn't see it?"
Murong Peng said: "He died in battle. This time he lived up to the reputation of Tan Shihuai Khan and died on the front line!"
Luri looked at his old comrade coldly and said word by word: "The Great Khan is surrounded by elite guards from the Royal Court, how could he die so easily!"
He looked at the tribal leaders around him to see if they had assassinated He Lian. However, these tribal leaders were not ashamed at all. Instead, they were furious. If He Lian hadn't encouraged them to attack Mayi, how could their losses have been so great?
The tribe has been unable to survive this winter. They are about to die. Naturally, they don't care that Helian, a Xianbei man, is sweating profusely, let alone that Helian is seeking his own death. What does it have to do with them?
Although Lüri deduces and looks down on Helian, he is, after all, a descendant of Tanshihuai and the great khan of the Xianbei people. To die like this in Mayi would hurt the morale of the Xianbei people.
Moreover, he could not accept that the Xianbei Kingdom, which had been torn apart as soon as He Lian died, would completely collapse. Whether it was his loyalty to Tan Shihuai or the needs of the Xianbei people in the west, it was difficult for him to accept that He Lian died in battle.
Murong Peng knew that Lu Ri's deduction thought He Lian was killed, and immediately explained: "In order to atone for his sins, He Lian rushed to the front line with his bodyguards and faced Lei Gong's formidable armored army. All his bodyguards were killed by the armored soldiers.
The army was cut into pieces, and even Helian did not escape!"
Luri Demo said angrily: "Why do you want the Great Khan to charge at the forefront? Now that he is dead, our Xianbei country is going to perish. Are you satisfied?"
Tuoba Mo immediately tried to persuade him: "Everyone, calm down. The war has ended like this. Even if He Lian returns to Baitan Mountain, He Lian will not be able to survive. Death on the battlefield may not be a bad thing for him!"
This war was initiated by He Lian and everyone. If He Lian succeeds, He Lian's prestige will naturally increase, and he can take back the rights belonging to the Xianbei Khan. But now it has failed, or even suffered a disastrous defeat. Not only will these marshals not let He Lian go,
Lian, and even the tribal leader will not let He Lian go.
At this time, a young commander ran into the tent and said: "Commanders, our clan leader wants you to retreat immediately!"
"What happened? Did the Han army come?" Tuoba Mo asked immediately.
Xiao Shuai said with a sad face: "Lei Gong sent 10,000 cavalry to raid Danhan Mountain and robbed all our cattle and sheep! We are going to run out of food."
As soon as these words came out, the tribal leader in the tent immediately became shocked.
"How is this possible? How dare the Han people attack Hantan Mountain!" The Xianbei people simply couldn't believe it.
However, several generals were very decisive and stopped arguing about the peace company. They immediately ordered a retreat, not even caring about the Chinese army's main tent.
