In fact, this tactic is often used by the Huns cavalry. Their tactics are learned from the wolves on the grassland and are very effective. Therefore, most peoples on the grassland use wolves as their national totem. However, now In the position of cats or wolves, they are their enemies, and they are just the mice teased by cats or prey hunted by wolves.
The reason for this is that it is their enemies who have super mobility now, but they have become slow-moving targets. It is not terrible for the enemy to have bows and arrows with a longer range. The terrible thing is that they no matter how hard they work. They can't rush forward, because the enemy's movements are always faster than them, and they seem to be able to do so. If they can't rush forward, their bows and arrows can't reach the enemy. They can only be passively beaten, but they are unable to fight back.
Despite this, Liu Bao still yelled at the Huns cavalry to rush forward, because he knew that there was only one dead end to retreat, and the front convenience was the Huchuquan camp. There shouldn’t be too much snow there, so it’s suitable. The horses gallop, as long as they persist there, they have the hope to fight the enemy hard,
The Xiongnu cavalry watched their companions falling down constantly, frightened and angry, but even though they were full of strength, they also performed from a distance, because they could not reach the enemy at all, and many people’s eyes had already flashed despair. The look, if it weren’t for their respective leaders to urge them, they would have dismounted and surrendered. If this happens, it will create a precedent for the Huns cavalry to surrender to the enemy in the wilderness.
Suddenly, the enemies who were walking like flying on the snow stopped and no longer retreated as they progressed. Liu Bao was overjoyed when he saw this, and shouted again: "Erlang, they can only do this on the snow. Quickly, now, there must be not much snow behind them, so rush up and kill them."
Liu Bao guessed right. These people who can fly like flying on the snow are the Han troops under Liu Xin. These Han troops really can’t retreat because they are already very close to the Huchuquan tribe’s camp. Chuquan is a big tribe with a lot of people and strength. It has already cleaned the snow around the camp. The snow there is only a thin layer. Not only can the skis no longer slide on it, or even use it at all.
But what Liu Bao didn't expect was that these Han troops could not retreat, but they greeted them quickly. The Huns cavalry had been distressed for the Han troops to escape their range. They first fled to the rear, and then desperately faced them. They had no chance to shoot arrows. They were used to their bows and arrows that could not reach the enemy. They even forgot the sharp weapon they had in their hands. They just wanted to rush to the opponent. As a result, now the Han army greeted them. , They didn’t throw arrows to stop them, but subconsciously urged the horse to move forward, forward, and forward again.
The two crowds smashed into each other fiercely, and a large group of snowflakes were raised on the ground, and the ground was white. This is the scene caused by people falling on their horses and falling in the snow. The two sides began to meet each other, and the sound of fighting was shaking. The sound of knocking, the neighing of war horses, and the screams of dying screamed into one piece,
The Huns rode on horses and wielded scimitars desperately. Although they were condescending, the horses that did not run had no impact. At this time, their fighting power was weaker than that of the infantry. On the contrary, they were soldiers of the Han army, approaching. When the Huns brigade, they jumped off their skis and let the skis rush into the Huns with their inertia, knocking the Huns cavalry and turning their backs, and then these Han soldiers rushed forward and fought with the Huns cavalry.
This Han army was led by Zhao Yun. He could have bypassed the Huchuquan tribe’s camp, instead of directly confronting the Huns cavalry, and handed them over to Huchuquan to deal with. At this time, in the Huchuquan tribe. 15,000 men and horses have also been assembled. The invading Huns’ cavalry has been consumed by them just now, and it’s definitely not enough. Moreover, Hu Chuquan is still waiting for work and should have a greater chance of winning.
However, Zhao Yun understood Liu Xin's order well, knowing that it is more advantageous to preserve the strength of the Xiongnu as much as possible than to eliminate them all, and his task this time is to protect the safety of the Huchuquan tribe. No matter how difficult it is, he will have nothing to do. Fear,
At this moment, Zhao Yun took the lead, wielding his fascinating silver spear, and upset the Huns cavalry team. Every time a spear pierced out, a Huns cavalry was picked and dropped. No one could stop him for a turn. ,
Seeing the master rushing to the forefront, the Han soldiers were greatly encouraged and rushed to the Huns cavalry. In the eyes of the Xiongnu cavalry, the Han people were cowardly and deceived. Now I see the fierce performance of these Han people who are not afraid of life and death, and go forward. , Their hearts began to drum up, and the Han troops they faced were not blindly savagely charged. They were all well-trained and cooperated with each other very skillfully. The Xiongnu cavalry had hardly been under their impact. The strength to fight back,
Finally, the Xiongnu cavalry began to be unable to withstand it, and the strength of the machete in their hands gradually weakened. Some people had quietly retreated. At this time, the Han army broke out a shout: "surrender without killing, surrender without killing,"
These words were yelled out in the Hun language. Zhao Yun temporarily asked people from the Huchuquan tribe to teach them two days ago. The shouting made the Huns cavalry who had been in endless love to fight even more hesitating, and I don’t know who was the first. Throwing away the scimitar in his hand, dismounted and knelt down on the ground. When the other Huns saw it, the other Xiongnu cavalry followed suit. For a while, they abandoned their swords, and the sound of "pupu" submerged in the snow was endless. Be quiet, it looks very weird,
There are 23,000 Huns cavalry. Now no one is standing on horses or standing on the ground. The dead are already lying there, and the living are all slumped to the ground. At first, the Han army slid and shot, always keeping with the Xiongnu cavalry. At a certain distance, nearly 10,000 Xiongnu cavalry have been shot dead and wounded. Just now, there was a short-term encounter. Although the Huns are fierce, they are not good at close hand-to-hand combat. At this time, the Han army has surpassed them in terms of strength. In the battle, only a moment’s effort, the Huns cavalry had been killed and injured more than half.
The so-called injuring one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred, close hand-to-hand combat is very cruel. This is the main reason why Liu Xin has been committed to developing various bows and crossbows to improve the ability of long-range strikes. He wants to avoid the occurrence of short-range strikes. Although the Han army has far surpassed the Xiongnu cavalry in combat effectiveness, the energy that the Xiongnu cavalry exploded when faced with difficulties was also amazing. In this battle, the casualties of the Han army also exceeded 3,000. Since Zhao Yun led the army, In dozens of battles, there has never been such a big loss. When the battlefield is quiet, his face has been tight and no smile can be seen.
The Han soldiers cleaned the battlefield in an orderly manner, and the army doctors hurriedly bandaged and treated the injured comrades. The bodies of the dead colleagues were also gathered together. Liu Xin had a strict order that under no circumstances should any one be abandoned. Soldiers, even if these young soldiers were killed in battle, they still have to find ways to bring their remains or bones back home,
What surprised the Huns cavalry was that after the Han army bandaged and treated their wounded soldiers, they began to treat the wounded among them.
The herders of the nomadic tribes have no compensation for their deaths and injuries, and rarely receive medical treatment, whether they are in foreign wars or tribal conflicts. Therefore, these nomadic tribes like to fight tailwinds. If they fail, they will immediately run away because if they When they die, their family will lose the backbone. Their wives and children will be bullied, and even become slaves to others. Today’s battle, if it weren’t for the snow outside and their horses not running fast, they would definitely Won't work hard like this,
If they are injured, the end is often more bleak than the death in battle. Because they are not treated in time, many wounded will become disabled and lose the ability to work. Instead, they will become a burden on the family. Now they have received timely treatment and treated them. The rescuer was actually the Han army who was fighting them desperately just now. In addition to surprise, the faces of these rugged prairie guys were also touched.
At this time, the sky was already dark, and the Han army lit hundreds of torches, and against the backdrop of the snow, the entire battlefield was illuminated like daylight.
Several soldiers carried a stretcher in front of Zhao Yun. Lying on the stretcher was Yuvro’s cronie Kemei’an. One of his right legs had been cut off by a student of Han soldiers, and he was completely useless. Just now, When the interpreter in the Han army asked who their leader was, the injured Hun soldiers who had been healed pointed their fingers at Kemaian almost at the same time, so Kemaian, who had just bandaged his wounds, was carried here.
Zhao Yun asked in a deep voice, "Why didn't Yuvro come?"
Kemaian was seriously injured, but after the treatment of the military doctors, his life is no longer in danger. He is also a famous tough guy in the tribe, otherwise how can he get the trust of Yuvro and give him the ten thousand elite soldiers. command,
However, Kemayan, who was originally from the dying, was rescued by the Han army, and there was a wave of ripples in his heart. He didn't even dislike Zhao Yun's question at all. He gritted his teeth and answered truthfully: "Single with him. Severely ill, it is not suitable to go to the expedition, so let Liu Bao be the leader, I just assist him from the side."
Among the orders issued by Liu Xin, in addition to protecting the safety of the three tribes including Hu Chuquan, there is another item that is to try to find opportunities to eliminate Liu Bao, to see people alive, and corpses to die, and learned that the commander of the Huns cavalry It was Liu Bao. A cold light flashed in Zhao Yun's eyes. He pressed on his excitement and sternly asked: "Where is Liu Bao now?"
Facing Zhao Yun's aggressive gaze, Kemeran couldn't help but shudder, and said honestly: "He was with me just now, but after you rushed over, he was nowhere to be seen."
