On the frontal battlefield, more than 3,000 Huns cavalrymen looked ahead nervously, holding sabers and bronze collars stained with rancid smell.
The battle between the two armies will naturally not be like in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Before the battle, there will be a duel between generals.
In fact, the rules of war are that there are no rules.
This is what Sun Tzu said in The Art of War: An army has no constant potential, and water has no constant shape.
Although the Huns did not understand this truth, they understood how fragile their lives were now!
The Han army's formation on the opposite side was strict and solemn, with war drums rumbling, and countless cavalry formations ready to attack at any time.
In the plains on the left and right flanks, the Han Dynasty's infantry formations slowly squeezed in from the east and west directions.
This forced the Huns to fight a battle here, and they had to win or at least withstand the Han army's attack.
Otherwise, once the encirclement of the two wings is completed.
The Han army does not need to take action, they only need to dig into their pockets, and all the Huns in the encirclement will starve to death and die of thirst!
but……
The Han Dynasty military formation in the distance was so strict and powerful.
Countless flags were flying, and the cavalry phalanxes appeared neatly and densely in front of the Huns.
Just by looking at it, the Huns cavalry felt powerless and desperate deep in their hearts.
"There are less than ten thousand Han cavalry, and they are invincible!" Marquis Yougudu thought in his heart: "There are more than ten thousand Han cavalry in front of me? I'm afraid there are less than twenty thousand, and there are also famous generals of the Han Dynasty commanding them, and the divine cavalry is overwhelming.
...This battle...cannot be fought!"
No Xiongnu nobles will forget last year's Battle of Heyin.
Without the help of divine cavalry and with an absolute disadvantage in terms of military strength, the Han Dynasty army was able to defeat the main force of the Xiongnu in Heyin.
Nowadays, the famous generals of the Han Dynasty are holding the battle, their military strength far exceeds that of the Xiongnu, and they have divine cavalry.
Such a war scene is the nightmare of every Huns noble!
The nobles were all like this, and the soldiers at the lower level were even more trembling, and some even had the hand holding the bow trembling.
If the performance of these Xiongnu nobles and troops were seen by the Daxia, Kangju and Yuezhi people in the West, they would be surprised and grinning from ear to ear!
You must know that these Huns cavalry, in the west, in the vast area west of Congling, dared to chase tens of thousands of their legions with only a few thousand men.
Moreover, these cavalry are fearless, cruel, cold-blooded, and murderous.
The Yuezhi and Daxia people once assembled a heavy army and surrounded half of the Xiongnu with ten thousand horses.
As a result, the besieged Huns violently attacked the weak areas of the encirclement like mad dogs, causing the Yuezhi and Daxia people to watch and tremble as they fought.
In the end, the surrounded Wanqi actually broke through the encirclement head-on and killed the Daxia coach!
It was so terrifying that Daxia called the Xiongnu the ‘Whip of Zeus’.
But now, these arrogant Huns cavalry and nobles are looming in the west, known as the whip of Zeus, the terrible cavalry that whips the world.
In front of the Han army in the east, he became a completely different person.
The nobles cowered and no one dared to take the lead in the charge.
The soldiers at the lower level were like a little loli who was bullied by adults and could only shed tears.
Some soldiers even lost the strength to hold on to the horse's back.
They have completely lost any courage and morale, and even their will to fight has completely disappeared.
"Heaven will destroy my great Huns!" Yishi sighed when he saw this situation.
Before the southern invasion, no Huns nobles could have imagined that this day would come to them.
However, when that day really came, Yishi was not surprised or surprised at all.
Because, the reason why the Huns cavalry in front of the Western and Han Dynasty people showed two different fighting states is because they are the people who lead the bow!
The people who lead the bow live in pursuit of water and grass. From generation to generation, they live a homeless and precarious life.
They fear nature and the power of heaven and earth.
This created the unique customs and way of thinking of the Yinggong people.
They are like wolves on the grassland, hunting everywhere, biting all possible prey, and biting the prey until it is dripping with blood, which is horrible to watch.
However, in the face of truly strong people, especially those tigers and leopards who have taught the wolves a great lesson, wolves will automatically and consciously tuck their tails between their legs and behave like humans.
No wolf has ever dared to challenge a real tiger!
As for the Han Dynasty, it was such a fierce tiger! A divine dragon!
The Battle of Mayi and the Battle of Gaoque trampled the dignity and pride of the Huns to pieces, turning everything the Huns were once proud of into mud.
The rumor that the Han cavalry was less than 10,000 and that it was invincible became even more widespread and everyone knew about it.
Under such circumstances, it was almost impossible for any Huns to dare to raise their swords in front of the main army of the Han Dynasty.
It’s not like the Huns didn’t have such experiences.
Seventy or eighty years ago, when the Qin Empire was at its peak and unified China, Qin Shihuang sent General Meng Tian to lead the Qin elite to garrison the Great Wall and build the Great Wall to control the Yinshan and Yangshan mountains.
At that time, the Xiongnu, Donghu, and Yuezhi were all mute.
The Hu people dare not go south to herd horses, and the Hu cavalry dare not bend their bows to face each other.
These are not exaggerated words, but facts!
Today, history has gone through a reincarnation, and the Central Empire has risen again, and its narrow and boundless power dominates the world.
The Xiongnu's energy and spirit have been completely lost.
It is not just the herdsmen and lower-class slaves who are enshrining and worshiping the divine horses and emperors of the Han Dynasty.
Even high-ranking nobles would pay their respects and pray if they had no problem.
Among the tribes, those who thought, "If the Han Dynasty attacks, I will surrender," they are like crucian carps crossing the river.
Under such circumstances, how could the Huns have the courage and will to confront the main force of the Han army?
"Hateful! Hateful! Hateful!" Yi Shi clenched his fists, and his nails dug into his flesh, drawing blood.
The pain made Yi Shi wake up. He knew that he, his tribe and army were now on the edge of the cliff.
If we cannot come up with countermeasures, then it is very likely that after today, King Yougu Li of the Xiongnu and his headquarters will cease to exist!
However, Yishi raised his eyes and looked around.
My heart is filled with despair.
The Xubu clan ran away, and the Lan clan's ten thousand horses were languid and listless. Although the Outuo people were barely organized, Yishi believed that once the Han Dynasty people started to attack, the Outuo people would definitely collapse.
In other words, his headquarters Wanqi can still look a little bit like him.
However, this is actually just the result of the shaman's appeasement.
Once the divine cavalry of the Han Dynasty was dispatched, the previous methods had no effect.
Then, the entire tribe will collapse immediately!
But the Han army would not give Yishi time to think and consider. As the Chinese army's flags were waved, flag orders were conveyed to the commanders of the Xiliu camp one by one.
In an instant, thousands of horses galloped, like a flood, sweeping across the world. (To be continued.)
