To attack from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, not counting the time for the whole team, it takes half an hour just to climb up to get into the effective range of the bow and arrow. After the rout, the rebel army is gathered, and the next wave of soldiers enters the battlefield as a whole team and launches an attack again, which requires another
It took an hour. By the time the second group of Wuhuan people began to rout, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
When Tian Yu saw that the sun had set behind several parties, and that the time, place and people were in good order, he waved the flag decisively and ordered the soldiers to beat the war drums. The cavalry who were resting further back on the left wing mounted their horses one after another and began to form a team.
Prepare to launch a charge under the leadership of the officers.
As soon as Chen Cheng put down his shield and ring-shou knife, ready to clean up the blood on his body, he heard the sound of drums behind him. He looked back in surprise and saw the flag waving, and he understood in his heart. So he put the knife, shield and some nearby
The weapons were all put away, and many of them were damaged, but he didn't mind. Even if they were no longer useful, they could still be recycled as scrap metal, right?
After sweeping away the nearby weapons, he quickly turned around and ran towards the direction of the cavalry. After passing through the infantry line, Wei Ran had already led the horse over. Chen Cheng took the reins and touched the hair on "Gulu"'s head.
Mane said to Wei Ran: "Are you ready?"
Before launching the attack on the enemy yesterday, Tian Yu transferred thirty of the most elite soldiers to Chen Cheng's command. After the war, twenty-seven of them returned to the military camp. Tian Yu did not let these people return to the army, but instead joined the army.
Thirteen cavalry were removed and the number was increased to forty, still under the command of Chen Cheng.
Wei Ran grinned and said, "It has been prepared for a long time."
Chen Cheng said: "That's good, let's go!"
As soon as the drums were played, the Han cavalry had been organized. Tian Yu also strengthened the reserve of 100 cavalry in his hands to the left wing. Then, Chen Cheng rushed down from the mountain with 300 cavalry. Wuhuan was retreating
Hearing the sound of horse hooves behind him, the man looked back and could not help but feel his soul rising and let out a desperate cry.
The cavalry already has an advantage over the infantry, let alone the well-organized elite cavalry against the fleeing infantry? The three hundred cavalry slashed with knives, stabbed with spears, and used horses to crush out strips of the running Wuhuan people.
of blood.
"Chi", the blood-spraying sound kept ringing out, mixed in with the screams and the sound of horse hooves.
Chen Cheng clamped the spear and used the speed of the war horse to easily tear a Wuhuan man in half with his back turned to him. Every time he killed an enemy with his lance, the sound he made made him feel happy.
, feeling refreshed. Sometimes, he would also secretly wonder: Is he starting to become a little perverted?
However, the word "pervert" is not a derogatory term in biology, but a neutral term. With power far beyond that of ordinary people, can it still be considered a human being? A white horse is not a horse, and a superman is not a human being.
After the cavalry troops broke through the defeated troops of the Wuhuan people, they not only did not stop, but rushed towards Qiu Liju. Who told him that there was a Chanyu banner more than two feet high here?
The cavalry troops brought up large amounts of smoke and dust. The sunlight shone on the smoke and dust, reflecting a fantastic and blurry brilliance, making the Han cavalry who rushed out of the smoke and dust seem to be flying in the clouds and mist. When Qiu Liju saw this, his mouth immediately became dry.
Get up. He hesitated on the spot for a moment, then woke up, shouted, and rode away.
There are still more than a thousand Wuhuan cavalry under the banner, but none of them have mounted their horses. When they saw the officers and soldiers coming to kill them, they were mounting their horses in a noisy manner and were preparing to fight with the enemy. Suddenly someone shouted: "The Great Chanyu has escaped.
!”
Everyone looked back and saw, right? The gold jewelry on Qiu Liju's body was very dazzling. It was usually a symbol of the power and wealth of the Great Chan. However, they didn't take it off at this time. They were seen all of a sudden. Now, morale
It immediately fell to the lowest level, and the Wuhuan people who had originally planned to resist suddenly dispersed.
Gulu ran faster and faster, rushing past the banner like a gust of wind. Chen Cheng bent down, stretched out his hand and grabbed the flagpole of the banner in his hand. When he saw that the flag of the Great Chanyu was taken away
After leaving, the Wuhuan people ran faster. The Wuhuan people on the left and right waited and watched, and then joined the fleeing ranks.
For the Hu people, if the situation is unfavorable and they cannot defeat them, they retreat first. This is a tactic and means moving in another direction.
Seeing this, Chen Cheng sat on the horse and laughed loudly.
The greatest pleasure in the world is to ride on horseback and chase down your enemies.
The foot of the mountain was already in chaos. On the system screen, the surrounding red dots were moving away into the distance, but there was a dense group of red light dots quickly approaching here. This abnormal situation immediately attracted Chen Cheng's attention.
, he looked forward and saw a group of men and horses rushing towards this direction against the scattered crowd.
The equipment and dress of the enemy troops that rushed over were completely different from those of the Wuhuan people, and they seemed to have better organization and morale. Chen Cheng thought for a while and guessed that they were elite rebels composed of Han people. Hundreds of rebel cavalry pulled out
They gained much width and came with great force. They mercilessly killed the Wuhuan people they encountered on the road. The direction of the ice block was exactly the flank of the Han cavalry.
He secretly admired the European rebel general's foresight and wisdom in his heart, and thought to himself: There was Ding Yuan before, and now there is this guy who I don't know who, they are all excellent generals, no wonder Zhang Chun can beat Gongsun Zan into disgrace.
But you want to defeat me with this trick? You’re still far from it!
Chen Cheng whistled, causing Gulu to slow down, and shouted: "Team up, team up! Come closer to me!"
While shouting loudly, he threw the Wuhuan people's Shanyu flag to the ground, and then took out his bow and arrow. The situation on the battlefield was extremely chaotic. He didn't know how many people heard it, and he also knew that some people even
Even if he hears it, he may not be able to follow him, but he must not stop and wait for his teammates.
The biggest advantage of the cavalry is speed. Chen Cheng paused for a moment, and after turning, he once again increased the speed to the maximum. Gulu kept running, running parallel to the rebel cavalry. During the galloping process, the horses were highly like
It is a sinusoidal curve, constantly switching between the highest and the lowest. Most people's riding and shooting is to hold their breath and concentrate, and shoot when they reach the highest point and are the most stable.
But is Chen Cheng an ordinary person? Definitely not. So, he didn't care what was the highest or the lowest. He took a rough aim at a distance of fifty or sixty steps and shot the arrow towards the place where there were many people. He shot ten arrows in one breath.
A single arrow shot down two rebel cavalrymen from their horses.
He himself was very dissatisfied with this hit rate and sighed in his heart: Nine out of ten shots missed!
However, the rebels were horrified by such a high hit rate. For mounted shooting at such a long distance, unless it was a horseback shooting, the relative speed of the two sides was close to zero, so there was only a slight possibility. How could there be any mutual exchange?
Can you shoot so accurately while hovering?
The rebel cavalry intercepted the tail of the Han cavalry. After a brief encounter, they killed seven or eight people. They themselves also fell down with an equal number of cavalry. The exchange ratio was one to one, but they had more people and died.
Yes, there are 500 infantrymen following behind. Theoretically, they can win if they continue to trade like this, although no general would like such a victory.
However, this exchange ratio is only temporary, and as the war progresses, their casualties will only increase.
Chen Chengzheng was biting the rebel formation. While continuing to shoot arrows, a crossbow arrow suddenly passed by behind him. Without looking, he knew that it was a volley fired by the rebel infantry. Zhang Chun's subordinate had the same
The troops composed of Han people have almost the same equipment and organization as the infantry under Tian Yu's command.
Both sides use the same tactics, speak the same language, and are fighting to the death here.
He didn't care about the rebel infantry, but held the enemy's cavalry tightly. The infantry moved too slowly, and as long as they didn't hit them head-on, they didn't pose much of a threat. The real danger was the rebels.
The cavalry were well-equipped and skilled in martial arts. They were once the pillars of the Han Empire on the frontier, but now they became the ruin of the empire.
After the cavalry of both sides charged for a round, they did not regroup, but started a melee in the form of small teams. In the melee, Chen Cheng was even more at ease, firing his bow continuously at close range, killing the rebels one by one. Waiting until
The formation of the rebel cavalry was broken up, and he led the cavalry to charge over.
Repeatedly, the rebels' losses were several times greater than that of the Han army. The rebel cavalry general couldn't bear this kind of loss, so he shouted and led his men to chase after Chen Cheng, but he was shot down by him with a single arrow. See
My general fell from his horse, and the soldiers rushed forward desperately and snatched him back.
After killing more than a dozen enemy knights again, Chen Cheng was promoted to another level. This time he added attribute points to "Strength" and added "Riding Skills" to his skills, raising his "Riding Skills" to level five.
Only by fighting in the field can you understand the importance of "riding skills". As long as you run fast enough, you won't be hit by arrows!
The rebel cavalry retreated with the seriously injured general. Chen Cheng originally wanted to continue the pursuit, but was shot back by the rebel infantry's powerful crossbow. He tried to harass the side for a while, and shot over the infantry phalanx.
There were only a few people, but the rebels were unmoved. When one person fell, another one came up from behind. They divided the crossbowmen into several groups and used volleys to force the Han army back.
Chen Cheng looked around and saw that the scattered Wuhuan people around him had gradually begun to gather. If he gathered all the cavalry and spent some time, he would definitely be able to defeat the infantry phalanx on the opposite side. But this is the worst place in the world.
The most valuable thing is time, and the most precious thing is time. Even if all the treasures in the world are piled up, they cannot save an inch of time.
Not only did the Wuhuan people on the west bank begin to gather, but the rebels on the east bank also began to move towards the river. On the river, there were several pontoon bridges made of sheepskin rafts. With these pontoon bridges, the rebels could quickly reach the river.
Both sides of the river mobilize their troops. After a while, the advantage will no longer be on their side.
Whatever, he said to himself, today is just the beginning, not the time to decide the outcome.
Thinking of this, he suddenly slowed down his mount, drew his own cavalry scattered around, and then walked slowly towards the way he came. At the foot of the mountain, the Han infantry had already taken a stand, clearing the way for their return.
Seeing the Han cavalry starting to leave the battlefield, several noble chiefs asked: "Great Chanyu, do you want to catch up?"
Qiu Liju had just been helped onto his horse by his subordinates, and he was in a state of embarrassment. Hearing this, he said angrily: "What are you chasing? I want to chase your tribe!"
