The first thousand two hundred and ninety-four chapters face to face
Chapter 1,294 Face to face
"Chanyu, the cavalry on the opposite side has been mobilized and is slowly moving towards us."
Zhao Yun sent troops, and the Xiongnu scouts immediately reported the news to the Xiongnu Chanyu.
"Qiu Linjian, is there any news from the rear?"
Hearing that Zhao Yun on the opposite side was leading his army towards him, Huyandalan immediately asked Qiu Linjian beside him about the situation in the rear.
"Chanyu, don't panic. They are just moving slowly and they are still far away. The news behind them has not been sent back yet, so don't be impatient."
Qiu Linjian also felt helpless. The scout had just left, how could he come back so soon.
"Instruct the entire army to prepare to launch an attack at any time."
Huyandalan also nodded. He knew that he was a little panicked. How could he beg the soldiers to fight calmly if he couldn't keep calm when the enemy was facing the enemy?
Zhao Yun led his army to move slowly. As time went by, Huyandalan became more and more impatient, especially the war horses.
People often say that animals are psychic. The war horses seemed to have sensed that the war was about to start. They snorted uneasily and scratched their hooves. The Hun cavalry on them slapped their companions with their hands to comfort them not to panic.
.
"Chanyu, the scouts from the rear have returned and no trace of the enemy has been found."
Finally, the scouts sent by Huyandalan returned and brought news that reassured Huyandalan.
"Haha, in that case, pass on my military order, and the whole army will move forward to fight the Chinese cavalry."
Hearing the news, Huyandalan laughed loudly. Since there was no ambush behind him, and he and the opponent both had 40,000 cavalry, he still did not believe that the Xiongnu elite cavalry who lived on horseback would lose to those half-hearted Chinese cavalry.
.
"yes."
Huyandalan gave an order, and the 40,000 Huns' cavalry began to move forward slowly, preparing for a decisive battle with Zhao Yun's cavalry.
Even if the war horses moved slowly, they could not move faster than ordinary infantry. The distance of thirty miles passed by in an instant. Soon the two sides reached a range of three miles, and could already see the opponent's war cavalry group.
"Charge, for the Huns."
Huyandalan looked at the Chinese cavalry in the distance, directly drew out the golden sword studded with gems, and ordered his elite cavalry to charge.
"General, the enemy is charging."
Huyandalan's cavalry charged, and Colonel Yuan Yao immediately reported the news to Zhao Yun.
"Tell the army to charge, wait until five hundred steps to break up the army formation, use armored cavalry as the vanguard, break the formation, and send a telegram to General Yan Xing, so he can start."
Zhao Yun also pointed his silver spear and ordered his cavalry to charge similarly.
"Rumble."
Both sides launched a charge together, with nearly 100,000 cavalry galloping across the plain. The yellow sand rolled up covered the sky and the sun. Even the goshawks in the sky spread their wings and flew high, not wanting to see this human tragedy happen.
Starting here, Yan Xing in the rear also ordered the cavalry to charge, and the 20,000 fine cavalry also threw off their hooves and rushed towards the battlefield.
"A thousand steps."
"Eight hundred steps."
"Five hundred steps."
"Split formation, charge with armored cavalry."
Finally reaching a distance of 500 steps, the Yingyang Army at the front split open, and the armored cavalry hidden in the sharp arrow formation accelerated towards the opposite side.
"They formed a formation, is this?
It is the most armored cavalry of the Chinese people."
Qiu Linjian, who was rushing at the front, was very excited when he saw Ying Yang's army arrayed. After all, the two sides were fighting with complete lineups. If the other party suddenly formed an array, he must have an advantage.
But when he saw the armored cavalry appearing in the military formation, he immediately understood the reason why the other party had no fear and decided to fight him. This was just bullying, fuck.
"Armored cavalry?
Immediately change the formation, using the front and arrow formation as the three-star formation, with the cavalry in the center running backwards and flanking the enemy on the left and right flanks."
Huyandalan also saw the armored cavalry. He had never encountered such an enemy before. Now he could only make targeted deployments based on the characteristics of the armored cavalry.
The Huns' cavalry were very elite. They immediately changed their formation after receiving Huyandalan's order. Even if they were close at hand, they were divided into three waves like lightning. In the middle, they began to retreat backward. The cavalry on both sides were like a crab's iron pincers and killed Yingyang's army.
"Haha, you want to use the grassland people's running and shooting to kill us?
The armored cavalry moves to the left, the Ying Yang Army moves forward in the middle, the alien cavalry and camel cavalry move to the right, attack in three directions, and crush them all for me."
Zhao Yun has been fighting on the Xianbei grassland for a long time, and being able to defeat Xianbei's invincible opponent is not for nothing.
Firstly, he is proud of the fact that his cavalry have experienced hundreds of battles. Compared with the Xianbei and Wuhuan peoples on horseback, they are not inferior at all, and they are even more powerful with the bonus of equipment.
Secondly, it also benefits from Zhao Yun's wisdom and bravery. Whether he is commanding on the spot or charging into the battle, he is a first-class existence.
He dared to use 40,000 cavalry to snipe 40,000 Huns cavalry. On the one hand, he had Yan Xing's 20,000 cavalry behind him, and on the other hand, it was also because of his trust in his own cavalry.
As soon as Zhao Yun gave the military order, the 40,000 cavalry also changed their formation instantly. The armored cavalry rode the rolling torrent directly to the left. The 10,000 foreign cavalry and 2,000 camel cavalry also attacked the Hun cavalry on the right. Finally, Zhao Yun led 20,000 cavalry.
Five thousand men, with their elite eagles raised, pursued the Huns cavalry.
The battlefield was instantly divided into three. The 10,000 Huns cavalry on the left saw the armored cavalry rushing towards them. Both sides were already close at hand. If they wanted to retreat or take a detour, it was already too late. They could only transform the front arrow array into a scattered star array.
Relying on increasing the distance between cavalry, weakening the power of armored cavalry charges.
"Scattered Star Formation, Charge Formation."
When Yuan Yao, the captain of the armored cavalry, saw that the opponent was dispersed, he immediately ordered the armored cavalry to use the scattered star formation. Although the best use of the armored cavalry is to charge in formation, the current situation is obviously more effective than a clustered charge.
Threat power.
The charge of armored cavalry is too scary. Even without a group, it is still very powerful. Even if it is five thousand versus ten thousand, it is incomparable.
A row of arrows fell from the sky and landed on the armored cavalry, making a clanging sound like banana trees in the rain, but few of the armored cavalry were injured.
The two cavalry clashed, and the Hun cavalry instantly fell on their backs, unable to block the charge of the cavalry. The Hun jade sword slashed, and the Hun cavalry could not resist it. A road paved with corpses appeared under their iron hooves.
"Spread out and support the right cavalry."
The Huns cavalry did not want to fight, and they lost three thousand cavalry in this battle. Qiu Linjian saw that he was no match for the armored cavalry, and had no time to reorganize his formation, so he directly led seven thousand cavalry towards the right wing to support him.
His idea was to defeat the enemy along the way first, and then turn a small victory into a big victory and completely defeat the Chinese cavalry.
"The enemy moved towards the right wing."
Seeing the Hun cavalry charging towards the battlefield on the right wing, a team led a team and immediately spoke to Yuan Yao.
"Pursue them and don't let them defeat the right-wing cavalry."
Yuan Yao also saw the situation in front of him. The disadvantage of the armored cavalry also came out. The Huns cavalry came and went like the wind. The armor on his body was too clumsy. It was difficult to catch up with the opponent.
He can only strike later. As long as the right-wing cavalry is not defeated instantly and can entangle the opponent, this is his chance.
Qiu Linjian's cavalry began to slowly form formations as they marched, and Yuan Yao's armored cavalry followed closely, giving them no chance to defeat the right-wing cavalry.
There was a battle here. Zhao Yun in the middle also formally engaged Huyandalan. The two sides chased each other and ran away, fighting only with bows and arrows.
The arrows from both sides were like a downpour, causing constant casualties, but these were nothing more than minor troubles for both sides.
"Chanyu, we can't delay any longer, otherwise if the cavalry on both wings is defeated, we will be defeated."
Watching the battle on the two wings, the captain of Huyandalan's bodyguard couldn't help but frowned. If he continued to delay, when the two wings were defeated by the enemy and surrounded on three sides, it would be impossible for him to escape.
"Prepare for a decisive battle with the enemy."
After Huyandalan heard the words of the guard commander, he knew that he could not delay any longer, so he gritted his teeth and ordered his soldiers to give up shooting and engage in close combat with Zhao Yun's Yingyang army.
Huyandalan gave an order, and the cavalry under his command also adjusted instantly and killed Zhao Yun behind him.
"The enemy is coming, ride the crossbow and let go."
Seeing the enemy approaching, Zhao Yun was delighted and directly ordered his soldiers to prepare to ride crossbows.
A crossbow instantly fired out arrows and shot towards the charging Hun cavalry.
"kill."
The Hun cavalry at the front facing the crossbows was also swept away, but the distance between the two sides was also as close as possible.
"Knife fight."
Zhao Yun took the lead, his silver spear and white horse rushing directly in front of the enemy like a bolt of lightning.
With a flick of the silver spear, a lot of spears exploded, and the three Huns cavalry in front of him fell off their horses. Then the horses moved forward, and the silver spears continued to be swung out. No one among the Huns was their enemy.
Zhao Yun was brave, and the Yingyang cavalry behind him were also fearless and fought directly with the Huns.
Twenty-five thousand Yingyang cavalry and 20,000 Huns cavalry were fighting in a melee, but with Zhao Yun, a world-famous general, the Huns cavalry was at a disadvantage from the beginning of the battle, because no one could contain it at this point, which led to the Yingyang cavalry.
Under his leadership, the Yang army cavalry drove forward and attacked the opponent, making them extremely passive.
"Where is the guard wolf knight?"
Seeing how fierce Zhao Yun was, Huyandalan was also depressed. If Zhao Yun's advance could not be contained, they would lose this battle.
"exist."
The personal guard Langqi who had been guarding Huyandalan responded directly.
"Surround and annihilate that silver-armored general."
Huyandalan gave an order, and the guard wolf cavalry under his command rushed out directly, and led by the guard captain to kill Zhao Yun.
"Haha, if you want to capture the thief, capture the king first?
