With flying dust and smoke and the sound of hoofbeats, 10,000 cavalrymen, led by Li Hongyun, fought out of the Xia army's camp.
Of course, it is impossible for all these 10,000 cavalry to be deployed at once.
The terrain outside Hulao Pass is relatively narrow, and these 10,000 cavalrymen were all drawn from various camps that stretched over a wide area.
Therefore, what Li Hongyun could really bring with him was only more than a thousand men, while more cavalry followed behind him, led by generals at all levels.
Riding the horse, Li Hongyun felt a little regretful.
Hey, I really should take the time to get a driver’s license!
There is still a big difference at this time whether there is a subordinate status of cavalry or not.
But regret is regret, after all, he can only choose a subsidiary identity.
At this time, he was not completely unable to ride a horse.
He also spent a long time in the cavalry trial before. Although he failed to pass the test, he also honed his riding skills. Moreover, stirrups and high-bridge saddles had long been popular during the Liang Dynasty. Since he was riding a horse with stirrups, so for
It’s not too difficult for Li Hongyun.
What's more, he is now using Dou Jiande's body, and Dou Jiande's own riding skills are also good.
After rushing out of the camp like a whirlwind, Li Hongyun quickly saw Liang Jun.
Sure enough, King Qin didn’t leave!
As expected, this little expert in seeking death was worthy of his name. First, after seeing the Xia army scouts, he shouted "I am the King of Qin" to lure them to fight, and then shot several people to death; then, he didn't even leave, but was here slowly and leisurely.
He walked around, as if waiting for Xia Jun's army to come over.
So how many people were around King Qin at this time?
There are only a few people, I can count them on two hands.
Li Hongyun knew that this was the number of people who had been reserved by the King of Qin in the rear.
According to historical records, King Qin originally brought only dozens of elite cavalry with him on this trip. During the march, he kept leaving people at different positions in the rear as support. When he really came to the vicinity of the Xia army's camp,
By the time, there were only two people left.
Under such circumstances, he dared to shout "I am the King of Qin" and then start a fight with Xia Jun. This is indeed something that ordinary people cannot do.
When Dou Jiande learned the news, King Qin had already fought with the Xia army's skirmishers and small groups of troops.
King Qin obviously had no intention of running away for his life. He fought and retreated, shooting and killing the Xia army cavalry who dared to catch up, while rejoining the cavalry he had left behind.
When Dou Jiande sent thousands of cavalry troops to pursue him again, the King of Qin had retreated to a safe area unharmed, and let Dou Jiande's cavalry troops plunge into the encirclement he had arranged long ago.
Thinking about it, those Xia army cavalry were quite aggrieved.
During the fierce pursuit along the way, although people were constantly being shot to death, and although the number of cavalry around King Qin also continued to increase, they often only increased by one, two, or two or three. After chasing for a long time, the number of cavalry around King Qin also increased.
Just increase it to dozens.
So under this endless cycle of relaxing their vigilance, and relaxing their vigilance again, these cavalrymen had obviously gone up. When they finally got up completely, King Qin's ambush was already waiting for them.
The plan to attack the heart is so terrifying.
However, since Li Hongyun already knew the script in advance, he could naturally make corresponding changes to Dou Jiande's arrangement.
First, for the sake of safety, he directly increased the number of cavalry from a few thousand to ten thousand, and then he did not trust others to lead the troops and went out to attack himself.
Although this was not Dou Jiande's style, Li Hongyun knew that there might be a glimmer of hope for him to attack personally, but if he sent someone else to attack, it would be in vain.
Sure enough, after seeing the Xia army's cavalry, King Qin patted his horse and ran away.
Before Li Hongyun had time to see his face clearly, he could only see King Qin wearing gorgeous Mingguang armor from a distance, with a tall and magnificent green horse sitting on his crotch.
The reason why I was sure that this was King Qin at a glance was because there were too many highly recognizable elements on his body.
At this time, Liang Jun's armor was not the standard Mingguang armor that would be seen in later generations, but considering that King Qin repeatedly entered the enemy's formation and was still able to escape unharmed even though the horses were replaced several times, it can be seen that he
The armor must be very fine.
In addition, when King Qin fought against Dou Jiande, he was riding Qingzhui. The six horses he rode were engraved in the tomb where he and his queen were buried together, so related deeds were also recorded.
Moreover, King Qin also carried a powerful bow that was obviously larger than normal.
These three pieces of information are enough to determine the identity of King Qin.
Li Hongyun immediately slapped his horse and shouted: "Chase! If anyone can shoot an arrow at King Qin's black horse, he will be rewarded with fifty gold coins! If he can hurt King Qin, he will be rewarded with a hundred gold coins! If he can kill King Qin, he will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and be made a marquis.
!”
I don't feel bad about selling my father's land. After all, it's all Dou Jiande's money, and Li Hongyun doesn't care.
What's more, if Dou Jiande had been informed of his fate in advance, he would probably have given a larger reward than this.
A heavy reward must be rewarded by brave men. Dou Jiande led all soldiers from Hebei, and there were many brave men among them. As soon as he said this, the speed of the entire cavalry unit immediately increased, and they were chasing after him!
As the distance between the two sides quickly closed, King Qin, who was running at the rear of the cavalry and responsible for the rear, finally made some move.
He turned around on horseback, drew his bow and arrow, and shot out!
A Xia Army cavalryman in front immediately fell down in response.
The King of Qin did not hesitate at all. He drew his bow and drew an arrow again, and the arrows were fired without missing a beat.
Li Hongyun also drew his bow and nocked an arrow. However, the arrow he shot missed and fell softly to the ground. It was almost impossible to hit the King of Qin.
"Is the gap so big? This is unscientific..."
Li Hongyun refused to give up and drew his bow again, but the result was still the same.
Can't shoot! The range is not enough!
Even though it barely entered the shooting range, King Qin's horse did not run in a straight line stupidly, but moved in a flash, which further increased the difficulty of shooting.
Suddenly, Li Hongyun understood why.
He had been wondering before, why in historical records, only the King of Qin shot others, but no one else ever shot the King of Qin.
If it were a frontal charge, King Qin's horses would be hit by arrows, but in such small-scale encounters, almost all of them would be unilateral defeats by King Qin.
Obviously, there are three reasons.
The first is that King Qin's physical strength is amazing, and the natural range of the big bow in his hand is much higher than that of others.
The second is that King Qin’s horses are fast. For example, the Qingzhui he was riding at this time is said to have been hit by five arrows, all of which were shot head-on. However, the locations where the arrows were hit were one in front and four in back. From this we can
You can see how fast it flies.
As for the third point, it is obviously the most important point.
Because in small-scale encounters, almost all of them were the King of Qin fishing. In other words, it was the enemy's army that was chasing the King of Qin.
The King of Qin fired from front to back, going against the direction in which the enemy cavalry was chasing; while the enemy fired from behind, in the direction in which the King of Qin was escaping.
As a result, there will naturally be a huge gap in the range of the two sides.
The reason why King Qin deliberately uses a small number of people to fish every time is obviously because he enjoys the pleasure of teasing the opponent with the range of the ADC card.
Even though Li Hongyun had already acquired the talent of amazing physical strength at this time, even though he played the role of Dou Jiande and rode a good horse, his own riding skills were not as good as the King of Qin, and secondly, the range of his arrows when shooting in the pursuit direction was also inferior.
It's very far away, so if you continue to chase like this, you will almost be beaten to death!
Previously, Dou Jiande's cavalry chased the King of Qin. According to historical records, when these people chased after them, the King of Qin shot several of the leaders to death, so they withdrew in panic, then chased after them, and several of the leaders were shot to death, and then withdrew again...
...Three such cases.
This is not to say that these cavalry are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they are not brave enough in combat. The key point is that they cannot see the possibility of catching up with King Qin!
It can be imagined that when they tried their best to catch the horse at close range, they were shot to death by King Qin one after another. When the distance was really close, King Qin also urged the horse, and Qing Hao immediately increased his speed and distanced himself from them...
This desperate scene has been repeated several times, and normal people have indeed lost the courage to pursue it.
It was just that the military orders were still there, and the soldiers also had a certain sense of luck, thinking that they might be able to catch up due to the large number of people or the exhaustion of King Qin's horses, so this repeated state occurred.
Li Hongyun immediately clearly realized this fact, and before he knew it, he had led his men to chase him far away.
He didn't know exactly where King Qin arranged the ambush, but after realizing that he couldn't catch up and could only keep being fished for, Li Hongyun decisively decided to give up.
"withdraw!"
Li Hongyun immediately shouted and turned the horse's head.
The Xia army cavalry around them were stunned. It was obvious that they had already caught up a little bit, but they didn't know why the Xia king suddenly gave up at this time - even though the Qin king was already close to Chi Chi, it seemed that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't take the shot.
You can catch the horse with just one shot.
The cavalry following Li Hongyun naturally reined in their horses and turned back when they saw his actions, but it is impossible for a cavalry unit of 10,000 people to instantly spread the word to the entire army with just one order like in a strategy game.
Several cavalry groups were unaware of what was happening on the battlefield and were still pursuing them. However, during the pursuit, the cavalrymen in front saw the cavalry in front of them suddenly turning their horses, and they did not realize what was happening for a moment.
At this moment, King Qin holding a big bow in front also stopped.
Under the helmet, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Then, he made a move that no one expected.
He actually chased after me!
Not only that, but the dozens of cavalrymen around him immediately rushed with him without hesitation.
Just like this, dozens of cavalrymen were about to charge directly into the Xia army's 10,000 cavalrymen!
Not only that, but the rumble of horse hooves seemed to be heard from behind the hill in the distance, and soon, smoke and dust rose up from the large arc-shaped area ahead.
That was an ambush prepared by King Qin in advance!
Because Li Hongyun had read the script, he quickly retreated when he saw something bad going on. Therefore, the Xia army's cavalry had not completely entered the encirclement of King Qin. However, King Qin did not care, he could also order the encirclement to follow.
Obviously, the generals in the encirclement have been secretly observing King Qin's movements.
And at the moment when the King of Qin patted his horse and turned around to fight back, all the Liang troops made an attack almost at the same time, without any hesitation at all.
The King of Qin once again drew his bow and arrows, and the Xia Army cavalry in front fell down in response. The dozens of cavalry he led were obviously the best among the elite. During the impact, the Xia Army cavalry, which was already in a somewhat chaotic formation, became even more chaotic.
confusion!
Li Hongyun instantly realized that he seemed to have made a mistake.
There is a gap between Xia Jun's organization and Liang Jun's.
Therefore, King Qin keenly seized the moment when he wanted to retreat, the gap in the chaotic formation of thousands of cavalry, and then rushed out directly, further expanding the chaos!
Coupled with the ambush and the waving of flags all over the mountains and plains, it caused huge psychological pressure on the Xia army.
The rear cavalry of the Xia army did not know why the front cavalry turned around and retreated. They may have thought that they encountered an ambush and the front army had retreated.
In such a chaotic battlefield, it is difficult for soldiers to accurately judge the number of people on the battlefield.
Especially in local battlefields, when the soldiers see the enemy's flags all over the mountains and plains, but their own side is panicked and retreats madly, their morale will collapse in an instant - even if their actual number is the number of the opponent's.
Times as much.
Li Hongyun saw that Dou Jiande's generals were working hard to stop the soldiers and maintain basic organization, but during the retreat, failure was inevitable.
However, in such a chaotic situation, Li Hongyun suddenly slowed down a little, and at the same time, he turned back and drew his bow.
Now, you are the one chasing me!
This was not Li Hong's plan, but the moment he saw King Qin chasing after him, he immediately realized that this defeat might be an excellent opportunity created by a combination of circumstances.
An arrow shot out!
The arrow flew out and flew towards King Qin who was rushing at the front.
Li Hongyun is still very confident in his archery. After all, his shooting accuracy does not come entirely from his own skills, but also from metaphysics to a certain extent.
Sure enough, I saw King Qin charging from left to right, as if he was in a deserted place, but the arrow flew straight towards the direction where King Qin was charging!
This effect is more like King Qin taking the initiative to hit the arrow.
It stands to reason that King Qin has charged into battle formations so many times that he is already familiar with snake-skin movements. The speed of the green horse is extremely fast, and King Qin does not just run in a straight line stupidly, but often changes routes left and right to make the local bows and arrows more efficient.
Hard to hit.
But this time, Li Hongyun's arrow shot straight at him!
"Good arrow!"
King Qin actually opened his mouth to praise him, and then he twisted his whole body on the war horse, almost instantly twisting it to an angle of forty or fifty degrees, while his feet were still firmly in the stirrups.
With a "swish" sound, the arrow missed him and missed him!
Li Hongyun was stunned.
I report it, someone is cheating!
King Qin's riding and archery skills were among the best in the world, and since riding was a skill on horseback, it naturally also included the skill of ducking and moving on horseback to avoid attacks.
Yuchi Jingde's proud victory was actually a manifestation of his horse-riding skills.
After all, seizing the horse requires not only great strength, but also one has to dodge on the horse to avoid the opponent's horse's thrust, and then seize the momentary opportunity to seize the horse and seize it.
King Qin's riding skills were naturally superior to Yuchi Jingde's.
But Li Hongyun was not discouraged and took another shot.
It was too unrealistic to expect to kill King Qin with one arrow, so this time he decided to shoot continuously and aimed at Qingzhui, the war horse under King Qin's crotch.
However, at the same time, King Qin's war horse suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Li Hongyun!
Obviously, the King of Qin also saw that Dou Jiande, played by Li Hongyun, was the commander-in-chief of the army. Although it is not completely sure whether this is Dou Jiande, it can also be seen that he has a high status.
This arrow also made King Qin realize that Li Hongyun posed a great threat to him.
Capture the thief first, capture the king first, King Qin would not understand this principle.
In the chaos of the retreat, King Qin's sudden increase in speed and pressing step by step brought great mental pressure to Li Hongyun.
In this kind of environment, those who can really stay calm are the players with super big hearts.
Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer, Li Hongyun opened his bow again and shot three arrows in a row!
But at the same time, King Qin also drew his bow and arrows, and also fired continuously!
"puff!"
"Puff!"
Three arrows were missed and hit in succession.
However, what made Li Hongyun's heart sink was that two of the arrows only hit the chest guard directly in front of the horse, and only one arrow hit the horse in a distorted manner.
Of the three arrows fired by King Qin, two hit the cavalry on Li Hongyun's left and right, while the last arrow hit the butt of Li Hongyun's horse.
The cavalry of the King of Qin were light cavalry, that is, the men wore armor, but the horses did not wear heavy armor.
This is to ensure the speed of the cavalry as much as possible.
However, the fact that horses are not heavily armored does not mean that they are not wearing armor at all. There are still some simple protection measures for some key parts of the front.
Qingzhuo whined and staggered.
Obviously, these three arrows also caused some damage to it.
But the King of Qin suddenly pulled the reins of the horse, and it forced itself to run forward again.
However, the situation on Li Hongyun's side was even worse, because the war horse whined and knocked him down!
This time, he was thrown to pieces, and the cavalry around him panicked.
In a flash of lightning, King Qin had already arrived.
I saw him unfurling his bow and aiming an arrow at Li Hongyun, who was rolling on the ground and about to get up.
"Whoosh!"
Li Hongyun only felt a terrible tearing feeling and severe pain coming from his back. He had been hit by an arrow!
But fortunately, the armor he was wearing was of good quality, so the arrow was not fatal.
But then, Liang Jun's cavalry surged in and engulfed him.
Li Hongyun closed his eyes silently.
He had already guessed how history would record him.
"Taizong fought with dozens of cavalry, Jiande came out lightly, and chased them with ten thousand cavalry. Taizong fired his bows from left and right and shot several people, three of them. Jiande was unable to catch up with Taizong because he was shooting at them. Jiande was afraid of an ambush, so he led his troops to retreat.
, the formation was in chaos. Taizong pursued and attacked with his elite troops and defeated them. The remaining troops scattered in all directions, and the siege of Hulao was solved."
People who see this historical record will definitely laugh at him.
Taizong led dozens of cavalry to challenge him, and then Dou Jiande chased him out stupidly, but before he could catch up, he retreated because he was afraid of encountering an ambush. Then he was pursued by Liang Jun's ambush, and then he was killed in the battle formation. One hundred thousand people were killed.
The army dispersed...
I obviously thought I still had a chance, but after this fight, I realized that it was all for nothing...
Back to the original starting point.
Li Hongyun gritted his teeth and said: "Gather your talent! This time you must gain the talent to be proficient in bow and horse before fighting!"
He realized that the gap between him and the King of Qin was not only in archery, but also in equestrian skills.
The King of Qin could dodge and move on his horse and dodge arrows, but it was difficult for him to control his horse to dodge the opponent's arrows.
If this point is not solved, it may be impossible to catch and kill the King of Qin who is wandering out.
However, Li Hongyun did not give up on personal force, and he had already silently planned Plan B in his heart.
That is... looking for thighs!
So, at this time, is there really anyone in Dou Jiande's army who can compete with King Qin?
