Chapter 137 Long Drive to the Northern Territory, Zuo Ling Xianbei [2]
"Khan Qi, it's not good!"
"What's the matter!"
Kebineng, who was fighting with the soldiers, roared angrily while waving the steel scimitar in his hand.
"Khan, it seems that an unknown number of Wei cavalry troops suddenly appeared behind our army!"
"hateful!"
Kebi Neng was furious when he heard this. After slashing a Wei knight with his sword, he shouted loudly:
"Heilangtun, follow me and charge!"
"Yes, Khan!"
I saw Ke Bi Neng giving an order, and accompanied by a burst of gold and iron, and billowing smoke, hundreds of Xianbei heavy armored cavalry with black armor and black horses ran towards the rear following Ke Bi Neng.
Because Xiahou Xuan returned to the rear of the Xianbei cavalry, the situation between the two armies seemed to have reversed.
The Xianbei cavalry, which originally fought with the wind, now became obedient and defiant, facing enemies from both sides, and was a little embarrassed for a while.
At this moment, Xia Houxuan and the five hundred Yulin took advantage of the wind to kill the enemy by surprise. The rear of the Xianbei cavalry suddenly became a mess.
But just as Xia Houxuan, the Royal Yulin Camp, and the Changling Xuanjia Guards continued to charge, a group of cavalry like a black whirlwind rushed towards them against the wind!
Although Xia Houxuan unexpectedly rushed to the rear of the enemy army and took advantage, after all, he only had 500 Yulin and 200 Xuanjia under his command, totaling more than 700 people. Although the enemy army was panicked at first, after a while,
The Xianbei cavalry discovered that there were only a few hundred enemy troops rushing into their rear camp, so they quickly regained their composure, and the impact of Xia Houxuan and his Yulin camp was instantly weakened.
"kill!"
While Xia Houxuan was fighting a bloody battle amid the enemy's siege, a cavalry team like a black whirlwind swooped towards his Yulin Camp with a ferocious look!
Seeing the fierceness of the opponent's approach, Xia Houxuan made a decisive decision. He immediately took the flag hanging on the saddle, waved it and shouted:
"The Yulin camp obeys the order and forms a formation!"
"No!" Five hundred Yulin quickly formed a formation of five people, and each person in each small team held a different weapon in their hands.
The two hundred Xuanjia guards formed a halberd phalanx, covering the flanks of the five hundred feather forest, forming a horned force.
Although Kebineng had always admired the Central Plains culture and had studied the armor and fighting equipment of the Central Plains people, he had not studied the formations of the Central Plains army at all. After he saw the wonderful formation of the five hundred Wei army light cavalry in front of him,
He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, causing the running momentum of hundreds of wolf riders under his command to stall.
Looking at Xia Houxuan and the Yu Lin camp who were waiting in full formation, Ke Bi Neng and his six hundred wolf cavalry camp were stunned for a moment, but they did not stop and continued to charge forward.
"kill!"
I saw Xiahou Xuanhui slashing the flag with his arm, and the soldiers under his command immediately raised their spears and danced their halberds, cut their swords and shields, and defended each other. In addition, the hooked hands used their hooked hooks to block the enemy's weapons.
Horses, this exquisite fighting method gave the six hundred black wolf riders a dismounting power.
This formation was actually thought up by Xia Houxuan from the ancient military book "Sima Fa".
"Sima Law" mentioned: "If the army is not mixed, it will be disadvantageous. If the army is long, it will be guarded, and if it is short, it will be defended. If it is too long, it will be difficult to attack, if it is too short, it will not be enough. If it is too light, it will be sharp. If it is sharp, it will be easy to mess up. If it is too heavy, it will be dull."
, being blunt is useless.”
In other words, various weapons must be appropriately deployed in combat, and long and short weapons should be used in a mixed manner. Each type of weapon has its own different functions and cannot be replaced.
"Every time there are five soldiers, there are five equal parts. The long one can defend the short one, and the short one can save the long one. If you fight repeatedly, you will be long, and if you fight together, you will be strong." This is the principle of complementing the long and the short.
Kebi Neng saw his knights from Black Wolf Tun screaming and falling off their horses, their beards and hair standing on end with anger. He shouted angrily and immediately ordered the main cavalry of the surrounding rear army to also surround Xiahou Xuan's Yulin camp. There were many people on both sides.
With a large number of people and sophisticated tactics, the fight was inextricable, and it became a stalemate.
―――
Qin Lang, who was commanding the battle on the main battlefield, suddenly discovered that there was some confusion in the enemy's rear. Then the enemy's offensive on the front became weaker and weaker. He knew that Xia Houxuan's plan had succeeded!
Qin Lang, who was originally a little anxious, seemed to suddenly see the dawn of victory at this moment.
"Soldiers, the enemy's rear is in chaos. Follow me and charge to kill the enemy again. Charge!"
Qin Lang clapped his horse and held his sword, and rushed straight to the front of the formation. The Wei army, which was already in decline, saw their commander charging bravely in person, and regained their fighting spirit. They followed Qin Lang and charged towards the Monan Iron Cavalry.
At this time, without the Khan beside them, the Xianbei cavalry forwards were already less powerful than before. In addition, the rear was harassed by Xia Houxuan, so they seemed even more chaotic and disorderly at this moment, and their combat effectiveness was also greatly reduced.
Kebi Neng looked at the knights who kept falling in front of him, and he was so angry that he personally pulled out the black iron scimitar from his waist and rushed into the Yulin camp!
Although the Yu Lin camp trained by Xia Houxuan had good combat effectiveness and even more clever formations, Kebi's ability was infinite and his momentum was impressive. Four or five Yu Lin were cut down by him immediately.
The Yulin camp was still breached by Ke Bineng. When Xia Houxuan saw this, he was shocked and immediately rushed towards the gap, trying to stop Ke Bineng himself.
"Boom!"
Xiahou Xuance immediately stepped forward and had a fight with Kebineng. After the two swords collided, Xiahouxuan was shocked to realize that Kebineng was so powerful.
With a clang, his 'quality' knife fell to the ground!
Ke Bineng was also extremely horrified. His lengthened black iron scimitar, which weighed a full twenty-four kilograms, was actually cut off by that kid!
"General Xiahou, I'm here to help you!"
At this moment, there was a sound of horse hoofbeats from behind. Xia Houxuan was overjoyed when he heard the man's call. This was the deputy general of the Xiaoqi camp sent by Qin Lang to take care of him.
In just a split second, more than a thousand Wei troops with light cavalry rushed into the formation and began to fight alongside the Yulin camp.
Kebi Neng was furious when he saw this. He casually picked up a saber in the hands of the soldiers beside him, shouted and rushed towards the Wei army.
"Khan, it's not good, retreat quickly!"
Just when Ke Bineng was riding his horse to pounce, a Xianbei scout cavalry rode from the south. The smoke and dust in the distance seemed to be thicker, and from time to time, there were sounds of Xianbei language.
roars and exclamations.
"Khan, retreat quickly. Most of the enemy has broken through our front army. They are coming and we are defeated!"
"What did you say!" Kebineng looked at the dust and sand to the south and roared angrily.
He turned around and looked at the young man with white armor and white horse, silver sword and plain face who was surrounding and killing his cavalry, and felt extremely resentful in his heart.
He remembered that his beloved general Zonu died in the hands of this man in the early years, and today he caused his Black Wolf Village to suffer a great loss. Such old and new grudges made Ke Bineng feel angry.
He picked up the ten-stone horn bow hanging on his waist with his left hand, and took out three long wolf-tooth arrows from the quiver with his right hand.
Ke Bi Neng drew his bow and nocked an arrow on his horse. He only heard three "咻-咻-咻-咻-" sounds, and the three wolf-toothed arrows were like three swift black eagles, passing through the wind and sand towards Xiahou Xuan.
Fly over!
"withdraw!"
Kebineng glanced at the enemy white-armored general who was about to be hit by an arrow, sneered, and then led hundreds of Black Wolf Cavalry soldiers under his command to escape into the desert to the north.
"General, be careful!"
Just when Xia Houxuan was holding a sword in his left hand and was fighting with his subordinates, a Yulin suddenly noticed the cold arrow shot from a distance. He swung his spear with all his strength to block a wolf-fang arrow, but before he could continue to swing it,
The iron spear and the remaining two arrows had already flown towards Xia Houxuan!
"Ah!" Xiahou Xuanleneng, who was fighting hard, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder blades and left arm. He fell off his horse and lost consciousness!
"General! General!"
When Five Hundred Yulin saw their general Xia Houxuan fell from his horse, they all panicked. At this time, they completely forgot to chase the enemy. After saving Xia Houxuan, who was pale and covered in blood, Five Hundred Yulin and the two hundred Xuanjia Guards
Surrounded by the unconscious general, they ran frantically towards the south camp at full speed!
―――
Finally, the war ended and the dust settled.
Xianbei Lord Ke Bineng led the remaining cavalry to flee to Mobei, and Xianbei General Xie Guinihui led some of his troops to surrender.
The victorious Wei soldiers returned to Jinyang City in Bingzhou with high morale.
In the city, in the governor's official residence, the governor Bi Gui had prepared a celebration banquet, and was drinking happily with Qin Lang and other generals.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was tipsy.
"By the way, General Qin, General Xiahou, he has made great achievements this time. I wonder how his injuries are?"
Bi Gui raised his wine glass and suddenly thought of Xia Houxuan. He thought to himself, no wonder His Majesty admired Xia Houxuan so much when he was in the East Palace. Today, it seems that Xia Houxuan is indeed a young hero.
"General Xiahou's courage and bravery in battle are indeed impressive."
Qin Lang nodded, feeling ashamed for his previous attitude of looking down on Xia Houxuan. He said:
"General Xiahou's injury, I have ordered the best military doctor in the army to treat him, and have also dug out the arrowhead. I think it should be no longer serious at this time. It is just that it is inconvenient to drink, so he cannot come and have a drink with us."
ah."
"That's good, that's good. When we finish the banquet later, I will go and see General Xiahou's injury in person."
Bi Gui smiled and raised his wine glass. With this victory, he could be said to have avenged his previous humiliation, so he was in a particularly good mood today. He raised his glass and said:
"Come, General Qin, let me toast you again!"
"Okay, do it!"
As everyone talked, they continued to drink.
"General Qi, it's not good!"
At this moment, a soldier from the Yulin Camp rushed in, knelt on the ground and cried:
"Our General Xiahou's wound burst open and kept bleeding black blood. The military doctor said that he was probably poisoned by the arrow..."
"ah!"
Qin Lang and everyone in Bigui were shocked when they heard this.
