Chapter 169, the first battle of the armored heavy cavalry
Lu Liang and the others once again organized the two ferocious troops and changed their direction. This time they continued to attack southward, hitting one area almost at the same time. Every time they attacked, blood spattered everywhere, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and severed limbs danced in the air.
Brutal massacre, these two cavalrymen were like the gods of death.
Even though Baima Tong's soldiers were outnumbered, their momentum was still intimidated by these two teams of less than a thousand people.
But when the manpower was exhausted, after several charges, the horses began to tire and the soldiers became extremely tired.
Under the command of Baima Tong, tens of thousands of soldiers have surrounded them! Only Lu Liang and his dozen soldiers were left on the battlefield, supporting each other to stand up!
Baima Tong couldn't help but admire their bravery, but it was a pity that such warriors were their enemies. He waved hundreds of long arrows and shot Lu Liang and the others to death!
This battle was a mixed bag for Baima Tong and the others. The worrying thing was that even though they had three times the strength advantage, the casualties on the battlefield still reached one to one. He left behind 5,000 traitors, but he also suffered more than 5,000 casualties.
Now he only has 25,000 troops left who can continue to fight.
The happy thing is that I got 5000 sets of high-quality armors and swords!
During the first battle, Baima Tong obtained some armors and swords from the Tengjia Army.
But he discovered that Mayi's armor had pottery shards on it (Baima Copper didn't know ceramics). The style was weird, but the effect was very good. Their three-layer leather armor was not as defensive as these armors with pottery shards!
In addition, Mayi's sword is also very strong and sharp.
And now the weapons he captured in this battle are enough to arm 5,000 people. This can more than double the combat effectiveness of his troops!
On the other side, the 3,000 cavalrymen who had escaped returned to Luochengwu Fort!
He Feng personally brought people to greet them and asked, "Why didn't the supervisor see him?"
"The Supervisor helped us cut off the rear, but we don't know his situation!"
Then He Feng waited for a long time, and after making sure that no one came over, he knew that Lu Liang must have encountered something unexpected!
He Feng was so angry that he immediately hit several cavalrymen around him and said angrily: "I told you not to go, not to go, but you just didn't listen. Now Lu Liang is dragged to death by them!"
The soldiers beside him quickly grabbed He Feng and said: "General, now is not the time to fight them. Baima Tong still has tens of thousands of people watching outside Wubao in Luo County. We should return to Wubao and hold on until Qu Shuai.
When the time comes, it won’t be too late for us to take revenge!”
Now that the enemy is facing us, the soldiers also know that now is not the time to exclude these people. If they are forced to rebel, it will not be a joke to Baima Tong.
It took He Feng a long time to calm down after hearing this, and led them into Wubao, preparing to defend against the next wave of Baima Tong's attack!
And Baima Tong and the others returned to their camp half a day later, and there were thousands of Baima Tong's cavalry wearing Mayi's standard helmets, and the heads of Lu Liang and Liu Bao were constantly showing off under the Wubao!
Even though He Feng was furious, he still endured it!
At this time, Baima Tong received a not-so-good news. Lei Gong's vanguard troops had arrived in Wuzhou, which was only 200 miles away from Luo County. This meant that Lei Gong's vanguard troops would arrive in at most 3-4 days.
It’s Wuzhou.
The speed of Lei Gong's support greatly exceeded Baima Tong's expectation. He originally thought that it would take at least ten days for Lei Gong to lead a large army to support, but he did not expect that the Mayi soldiers could gather at such a fast speed.
But Baima Tong did not panic. As early as when he sent out troops, they had predicted that it would be difficult for only 40,000 people to capture Lei Gong's heavily armed Wubao.
The purpose of his group of troops was not to attack Mayi, but to contain the main force of Duke Lei, so that Xubu Guduhou could sometimes conquer Yunzhong County, so that the Xianbei people could attack Wuyuan County and Shuofang County.
The purpose of the battle was to cut off Lei Gong's hand extending to the grassland, and after their combined forces occupied these three counties, they could accumulate strength and then conquer Mayi.
Baima Tong and the others began to change their combat strategy. They divided their more than 20,000 soldiers into more than 20 shares, each with 1,000 soldiers, and let them scatter in all directions, whether it was to block most of the Lei Gong or to burn on the territory of the Tengjia Army.
They can kill, plunder, and the only requirement for them is to delay the main force of Lord Thunder as much as possible!
The tribal leaders of the Huns understood this strategy immediately after hearing it! This is not just threshing the grass in the valley. Although it has been rarely used in recent years, they have not forgotten this tradition and sometimes use it on the Xianbei people.
They like to roam around like wild wolves on the grassland, like to make mysterious surprise attacks, and like to lure the enemy deep and then surround and annihilate them with superior force.
Baima Tong believes that this is the best strategy for his opponent Lei Gong. Lei Gong's army is extremely large in number, but it is not as flexible as their Huns' cavalry. And now he has dispersed his army into thousands of troops, giving full play to the flexibility of the Huns' cavalry.
To the extreme, although this can't severely damage Lei Gong's army, it can delay Lei Gong's pace. When winter comes, Lei Gong will have to withdraw his troops.
Wuzhou, the Chinese army’s big tent!
The Huns' Tanma had been fighting Xu Wei's forward for more than two days. Xu Wei's forward relied on long-range crossbows and did not suffer much loss, but this way the marching speed would not slow down!
But today Xu Wei received the battle report from Luo County. After learning that Lu Liang died in battle, his face instantly turned ugly. This was the highest level of generals he had killed in battle since he started his army!
After Wang Ge and others saw this battle report, they were also furious and said: "If these Huns hadn't been disobedient, Lu Liang would not have lost his life in vain. After this war, these Huns must be dispersed, otherwise they will
It will definitely become a serious problem for our Tengjia Army!"
Lu Liang had attended classes with them in Mayi. They were all classmates and had a good relationship. Now that his friend had died in battle, every general here was not angry!
Xu Weidao: "Now we are trying to find a way to deal with Baima Tong. Although he is not strong, it is really troublesome to use such guerrilla warfare tactics. If we cannot catch their main force, it will be difficult to give them a fatal blow! Moreover, they are burning, killing and looting everywhere.
Although they are not in the core area of our city of Mayi, the disaster they caused is not small!"
But Wang Ge sneered and said: "It's just a free fight. Our Tengjia Army is no longer the time when we first came to Mayi. Now we have 30,000 cavalry, and the equipment and equipment are better than those of Baima Tong. In a fight, we will have the upper hand! And I really want to
To fight guerrilla warfare, Baima Tong also chose the wrong place. There are mountains to the east and south of Luo County, and the Yellow River to the west. As long as we press from north to south, we can directly force Baima Tong and others to the edge of the Yellow River. At that time, Jiang Wu will be arranged
The fleet has cut off their escape route, and Baima Tong and the others will be unable to fly!"
After Baima Tong made his move, Xu Wei immediately followed up. He sent the vanguard troops to cross Luo County and march towards Wucheng County.
At this time, there were beacon fires everywhere in Wucheng County. All the people hid in Wucheng County and could only watch the Huns burning, killing and looting! Gu Zhuan
After Xu Wei's vanguard arrived in Wucheng County, they began to expel these Huns and drove them to Luo County.
Xu Wei's 60,000 troops were lined up in a row, with the infantry in the middle and the cavalry on both sides constantly reducing the range of activities of the white horse bronze cavalry!
Baima Tong naturally refused to sit still and wait for death. He led his elite troops to attack Xu Wei's Chinese army to open a channel.
For this reason, he took out his best 5,000 cavalry and charged against Xu Qiang's Chinese army!
It's a pity that he chose the wrong target and rushed into the defense line of Modao Camp. As a result, he was beaten to death by the soldiers of Modao Camp. They chased him for more than ten miles, hacking to death 2,000 elite soldiers.
The cavalrymen and Baima Tong himself were frightened and fled with the remaining troops.
This battle completely destroyed Baima Tong's courage. He no longer dared to confront Xu Wei head-on. He only dared to use Fang Sheng to delay time. When Lei Gong pressed them to the Yellow River, he led them
The tribe returned to the south bank of the Yellow River on sheepskin rafts!
The war continued like this slowly for another 10 days! Xu Wei's army finally suppressed the Huns south of Luo County.
He Feng led his personal guards to face Xu Wei and said: "Shuai Qu, I want to protect Lu Liang, please allow me to fight!"
Xu Wei thought for a while and said: "There are 1,000 people stationed on Wubao. I allow you to personally cut off Baima Tong's head in memory of Lu Liang!"
He Feng knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you so much, Qu Shuai!"
Xu Wei pulled him up and said: "Lü Liang is not only your friend, but also my comrade-in-arms, no thanks needed!"
At the same time, after more than 10 days of fierce fighting, although there were only a small number of troops with few casualties, Baima Tong's troops still lost less than 20,000. It can be said that more than half of his soldiers on this expedition have been killed or injured.
The remaining soldiers have lost all morale and have no confidence in defeating Thunder Lord. Everyone just wants to go home now.
"Has the sheepskin raft been tied up?" Baima Tong asked anxiously. As Xu Wei's army got closer and closer, the pressure in his heart became more and more intense. After seeing the power of Modao Camp, he no longer had confidence.
Xu Wei was held back.
Liu Min said: "The commander is ready. They are all on the edge of the Yellow River now. As long as we go over and throw these sheepskin rafts into the Yellow River, we can cross the Yellow River. No matter how elite Lei Gong's army is, they can only watch us cross."
The Yellow River!"
Baima Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that he was ready.
"Tomorrow, we will cross the river at dawn. We can't stay here any longer!"
But Baima Tong obviously didn't know what "Tree Falling Hozen" meant. What he thought was a secret was soon secretly reported to Xu Wei by Liu Min and others. Liu Min's request was also very simple. As long as he spared his life, he would
For such a nobody, Xu Wei agreed without even thinking!
next day
Baima Tong led the remaining tribesmen towards the Yellow River. Just when they picked up the sheepskin rafts and prepared to throw them into the Yellow River, a huge fleet began to appear, with the flag of the Tengjia Army on them!
The leader, Jiang Wu, shouted: "Baima Tong, you can't escape this time, why don't you just surrender!"
Baima Tong suddenly panicked. He knew that he had been tricked by Thunder God. He thought that there was still a way to escape, but in fact, it had been cut off by Xu Wei.
At this moment, Xu Wei's army was also surrounded from three sides! When the shouts of killing not far away stopped, Baima Tong knew that he was completely surrounded. If he wanted to escape, he could only break through Xu Wei's army.
At this time, many of his men wanted to drop their swords and surrender. They did not have much morale to begin with, not to mention that they were now in a desperate situation. They could not find a way to survive except surrender.
There is a way, not to mention that after surrendering to Xu Wei, they might live a better life. During this period, they burned, killed and looted around Luo County, but they also saw that the tribesmen living here lived better than them. Who could
Everyone yearns for a better life, and these Huns are no exception!
White Horse Tong, a cunning old man, naturally understood what his people were thinking.
He yelled: "Don't forget what we did during this time! How many people of the Tengjia Army we killed, how many villages we burned, and you can imagine what will happen after we yelled for surrender! Do you want to be fucked by Lei Gong?"
Come out of Beijing and see!"
After being reminded by Baima Tong, these Huns who wanted to surrender remembered that they had been in the territory of Tengjia Army for less than a month, but they burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes here! They pushed others with themselves, and they were afraid that Lei Gong would catch them.
I want to kill them all and vent their anger on the Tengjia Army!
"As expected of the White Horse Tong Commander, he is indeed cunning and cunning. No wonder he knows that most of the people in Luo County are Huns, and yet he still burns, kills, and loots here just to prevent everyone from defecting to Thunder Lord! It's a pity that just a plan is of no use.
, His strength is not as good as Thunder Lord!" With Xu Wei's protection, Liu Min on the side could stay out of the situation and watch Baima Tong struggle to his death!
Baima Tong continued to encourage after watching his troops tempering their thoughts of surrender: "Now we can only sink the boat. Thunder God is not invincible. As long as we can break through a hole, we can escape. In order to survive,
Everyone, follow me and kill——!”
The Huns were inspired by White Horse Tong and strengthened their belief in fighting. They followed White Horse Tong and shouted: "Kill——!"
Twenty thousand Huns followed the white horse Tong and rushed towards Xu Wei's military formation with the determination to die.
"Get your formation in order. It's time for our armored heavy cavalry to make great achievements!" Duan Peng said excitedly to his men.
He finally brought the most valuable and powerful heavy cavalry battalion in Mayi to the battlefield. He wanted to make a great contribution, but he didn't expect that Baima Tong would dismantle an army of 20,000 people, so that he spent half a month
Time has been fruitless. After all, although the heavy cavalry has strong attack power, speed is not their strong point. They cannot catch up with the cavalry of Baima Tong even if they want to pursue them. And today, the cavalry of Baima Tong cannot escape even if they want to. Finally,
It's their turn for the heavy cavalry to show off their prowess.
He Feng, who was standing next to Duan Peng, stared at the white horse and said, "Leave this man to me. I want to cut off his head with my own hands as a memorial to Lu Liang!"
Duan Peng nodded and said: "I know, he is your prey!"
There are 300 heavy cavalry in a line, and 3,000 heavy cavalry are neatly arranged in 10 columns. Each column has a hundred people on horseback standing in a line, waiting to attack. They are most powerful when charging on the wall!
