Therefore, after Zhang Xiu led his troops to break out of the encirclement, the two armies that had already surged out from the two wings of Zahu were like open arms, ready to surround Zhang Xiu's army just like Zang Ba before.
Zhang Xiu sneered again and again, and immediately turned his horse's head slightly and rushed towards the left. Then, without even waiting for the cavalry on Zahu's left wing to extend, he hit them head-on with the momentum of a comet hitting the earth, cavalry against cavalry!
A hundred steps away from each other, Zahu instinctively displayed his ability of riding and shooting, and the Xiliang cavalry also took out their single-arrow crossbows hung on their horses. This configuration of the Xiliang cavalry has never changed.
Relying on its own strong defense to offset most of the arrows, he pulled the trigger at the moment when he felt that the distance was about the same. The power of the single-arrow crossbow was enough to penetrate most armors. Zahu's leather armor was not suitable for such
For a powerful crossbow machine, it has no defensive effect at all.
When all the miscellaneous men were being shot down like wheat, the cavalry soldiers hung their crossbows on their horses again, then held guns in both hands and rushed toward the enemy without fear. They knew very well that
At this moment, their momentum has overwhelmed each other!
Without the foot of purple light extending out, the lengths of the spears of both sides were almost the same. However, when they charged towards each other and collided, the superiority of the two sides was revealed. The soldiers of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry had a certain understanding of charge combat.
An experience that penetrates the bone marrow.
At the moment when the horses crossed each other, both Zahu and the cavalry fell off their horses. However, the difference was that the number of Xiliang cavalry who fell off their horses was far less than that of Zahu. This kind of cavalry's hedging only lasted for a few dozen seconds, and only Xiliang cavalry remained.
With his back facing the remaining cavalry extending out from the opponent's left wing.
He reined in his horse and turned around. A scratch appeared on Zhang Xiu's rib armor. The soldiers behind him were also panting. In just a few dozen seconds between the two sides, more than a thousand people had fallen, but this was nothing.
Zhang Xiu has jumped out of the encirclement, and Zahu has no chance of encircling him again.
Similarly, Zang Ba and others were all dragged out by Zhang Xiu. Although Zhang Xiu knew that these people were Liu Bei's people, on the one hand, Zhang Xiu still remembered his uncle's explanation before his death. On the other hand, he really felt that the country's
When fighting against others, there is no need to harm your own people.
So when Zhang Xiu could rescue them, he fished them all out without leaving a single hair on the bastard.
"You guys retreat first, leave this place to me." Zhang Xiu turned his head and said to Zang Ba and others.
"No, we stay to help you. Zahu is constantly getting stronger, and they have almost entered the transformation stage." Xu Shu shook his head and said, "And our reinforcements are coming soon."
"Although you still have more than 2,000 people, you are all injured and you won't be able to hold on for long. And to be honest, I have never seen so many miscreants except during the Battle of Northland." Zhang Xiu was helpless.
said.
In fact, what Zhang Xiu wants to say most is that something is wrong with Zahu now. If it goes according to what he saw in Jincheng, the combined efforts of both parties may not be able to deal with this Zahu, who only has 50,000 or 60,000 yuan. After all, Zahu with a weak will, if
Being hit hard in an instant would cause the whole person to collapse, but this time it was very different.
"There were only more than 30,000 people at the beginning, but now there are almost more than 50,000 people. You must know that there are about 130,000 or 40,000 miscreants behind us. Although the infantry accounts for a lot, they are also rushing this way." Xu Shu smiled bitterly.
He said, "Our role is actually as bait."
"Military Commander Xun also told me, so I still have two lines of reinforcements behind me. Plus your reinforcements, there are at least fifteen thousand. Even if the miscellaneous things are different now..." Zhang Xiu said somewhat
I can’t go on anymore. Fifteen thousand versus 150,000 is really a joke.
Although it is true that there are some elites of the Han army who can fight ten, but they are usually thousands of people fighting tens of thousands, and they can defeat the miscreants. This kind of performance has been achieved by both white horses and iron cavalry, but fifteen thousand against ten
Fifty thousand, that's really not a difficulty.
"Never mind, let's fight first!" Zhang Xiu's eyes became slightly solemn after seeing the Zahu soldiers being organized again. It was obvious that even the fool understood the difference between the Zahu soldiers along the way and the previous parallel imports.
The biggest gap between the Zahu and the Han army in this era is not in quality, but in mentality and organizational power. It can be said that the biggest impact of the appearance of the Northern Huns in this era on the Zahu is not to unify the northern Zahu, but to make the Zahu coveted
Qualifications for the Godhead.
This is also an important reason why all the wise people in the world want to teach the Northern Huns and Zahu how to behave, because what the Northern Huns did shook the foundation of the Han Empire. Four hundred thousand goats are just meat dishes, but four hundred thousand wild wolves are a real threat.
.
Therefore, it is very necessary to completely beat Zahu into a vegetative state before he awakens. Although Zahu is in awe of the Han Empire, the two sides have not had a large-scale war for many years. This is a good thing, but everything has two sides.
, there are advantages and disadvantages.
The two sides have not had a large-scale war for many years, resulting in a continuous increase in population. In addition, the Han Empire did not provide Chinese education to these seemingly surrendered Zahu. This resulted in the fact that although the Zahu were surrendering, their population continued to rise.
This is how millions of Qiang people came, millions of Xianbei people came this way, and millions of Wuwan people were also raised because there was no large-scale war. If they had bloodbathed the prairie like Emperor Wu did, even if they were miscellaneous
If Hu wants to rebel, he can only draw 100,000 troops!
With the current huge population base, even if the mixed young men had already suffered huge losses in the previous battle to the south, the Xiongnu had no regard for the future and forcibly extracted the population to form an army. To be honest, a few hundred thousand was really not much.
Just like the Han Dynasty, if the future life and death are not taken into consideration, with the current population of more than 40 million, in fact, more than 7 million young and middle-aged people can be recruited, and if they are all armed, they can be called an army of tens of millions without even using false names.
But if you do this, your country will be destroyed after you do it.
The Northern Huns naturally don't need to be polite to other Hu people. They are just pulling cannon fodder. In addition to cherishing their own headquarters, for Hu Yanchu, it doesn't matter how many times Zahu dies. As for what Zahu wants in the future.
?
It can be said that after this battle, if the Han Dynasty in the north is left to fend for itself, they will not be able to relax for another fifty years. After the young and middle-aged men die, only women and children will be left. As for the old, in fact, the Hu people have no respect.
What the old one said was to just leave it on the ice sheet to fend for itself.
This is also an important reason why the top wise men among Cao Cao and Liu Bei strongly support this battle. For them, they see very clearly that this is the best opportunity to deal with the Hu people.
Kill all the Zahu Qingzhuangs on the battlefield, and then move all the Zahu women and children from the north into the Central Plains. As for the Zahu Qingzhuangs on the battlefield, whether they are killed on the battlefield or captured as prisoners, it can be said that the biggest solution has been solved.
