General Qin

The sharp spear tip was facing the Hun warriors who were rushing forward.

A fast Hun cavalry ran straight up and was pierced on the spot.

The clever horse saw a shiny metal forest in front of him, so he stood up, not wanting to bump into it. But the consequence of this is that they were hit by the Hun cavalry who came after them. It was like a series of car accidents.

More cavalry still slammed into the Qin army's chariot formation. They wanted to use the powerful impact of the horses to break out of a way, rush into the Qin army formation, and kill them.

But the moon array is like a crescent moon.

Because of the shape, the more the Huns moved forward, the greater the damage they suffered. At the same time, because the arc shape can disperse the force of the force point, it has good impact resistance, so the Huns' charge is not as good as imagined. powerful.

Instead, the Qin army in the formation blocked the Huns cavalry with the help of Wugang chariots, and quickly thrust in with spears and long berylliums, causing huge damage to the Huns.

Behind the Queyue Formation, the crossbowmen of the Qin Army kept winding their strings, and then threw them out of the formation.

Outside the formation of chariots, there are densely packed Huns, and the arrows falling from the sky can be said to be all arrows.

Although some Hun cavalry in the rear countered with arrows, the small short bows in their hands were far inferior to the Qin army's crossbows in range and power, and could not cause much damage.

On the bank of the Beihe River, the entire battle scene was like a reenactment of the Yue clan's siege of the Qin army's chariot formation.

The difference is that the entire Queyue formation stands with its back against the water, and behind it is the surging Beihe River. There are Qin army boat divisions controlling the river course, so that the Qin soldiers in the formation do not have to worry about the enemy coming from behind, and can fight the Huns wholeheartedly.

At the same time, the two wings of the moon array surrounded the river bank. With the help of the muddy ground by the river, it could effectively limit the charge of the horses and weaken the impact of the Huns cavalry, so that the pressure on the Qin army in the array was not as great as imagined.

Of course, what is more important is that the five thousand Qin soldiers in the formation are all strong and brave soldiers selected from the whole army, or they are physically strong and powerful, or they are like Wang Ling and others, and they were in harmony with others before joining the army. He is a knight-errant hero who fights privately, with strong combat effectiveness.

Their chief general, Wang Li, even personally commanded the Qin army's chariot formation against the Yuezhi cavalry, and has relevant combat experience.

The first time he was born and the second time he was acquainted, Wang Li stood on the chariot by the river, his command was determined, he gave orders from time to time, and mobilized all kinds of arms to cooperate in defense, so that the Qin army was as stable as Mount Tai under the repeated attacks of the Huns. .

Under such circumstances, as time went by, the 20,000 Huns began to be unable to hold on.

"General, this moon formation is really useful. If we continue to fight according to the current situation, even if all the 20,000 or 30,000 Huns are killed, it is impossible to break the formation."

Chen Ping clapped his hands and praised.

Zhao Tuo smiled without saying a word.

If he remembers correctly, in the original history, Emperor Wu of the Song Dynasty Liu Yu used 2,000 men to set up the moon formation and defeated the 30,000 elite cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

Now that he is fully prepared with 5,000 elite soldiers, it is naturally easy for him to fight against 20,000 Huns cavalry in the Buqueyue formation.

Li Shiqi, who was standing next to him, smiled and said, "It's better for the general to strategize. If he hadn't made a fuss about the general on the right, and let Touman Shanyu come and attack this halfway, I'm afraid the Huns would not take the initiative to bite the general." Que Yuezhen. Now we just have to see how long they can bite the hook."

Zhao Tuo nodded and smiled: "I hope that our Grand Chanyu can show some ruthlessness, just like the previous Guishuang Xihou, and will not withdraw his troops until he breaks the Qin formation."

With that said, Zhao Tuo raised the binoculars in his hand and looked at the opposite bank again.

He wanted to see what Da Shanyu looked like now.

On the hill, Tou Manchanyu jumped up angrily while yelling and cursing.

In front of the nobles of the Huns, he showed what it means to be "thundering like thunder".

"What's the matter with the Qin army's chariot formation? Why can't I get in with 20,000 warriors charging! Is this the shell of a tortoise?"

Seeing the distant battlefield, the Huns cavalry fell in pieces in front of the Qin army's chariot wall, and the Qin army's chariot formation remained motionless. Touman Shanyu's face flushed with anger, and he sprayed furiously far away.

He has been battle-hardened in his life, and he has defeated countless opponents on the grassland. There are only two major defeats in his life that he will never forget.

Once, he was coaxed by Zhao Tuo in Dai a few years ago and was attacked by the Qin army.

The other time was more than ten years ago, not long after Touman Shanyu unified the Huns, when he was full of ambition, he went south to invade Zhao and wanted to plunder, but he was defeated by Zhao general Li Mu. More than 100,000 cavalry were smashed and killed, which seriously injured the vitality of the entire Huns.

In that big defeat, he fell into Li Mu's trick of showing weakness to lure the enemy mainly because he underestimated the enemy. He went deep into Zhao soil, was surrounded by Zhao army, and was surrounded and annihilated by Li Mu's left and right wings.

Moreover, in that battle, Zhao Jun dispatched 1,300 chariots, 13,000 cavalry, 50,000 soldiers with a hundred gold medals, and 100,000 players. Strictly speaking, Touman Shanyu deserved his loss, and he also recognized Zhao Ren's strength.

But what happened in front of him was that he went to attack thousands of Qin troops who had just landed with 20,000 Hun cavalry, but he didn't break into the enemy's chariots. Instead, more and more Hun warriors died, which was completely beyond his expectations.

Those people of Qin relied on weird chariots as shields, used bows and crossbows to shoot long distances, and stabbed with spears. Stretched out his head and took a bite.

This was a style of play that the Huns had never seen before, and Touman Shanyu was still a little confused in his anger.

Su Jiasha looked at Tou Manchanyu with pity.

She remembered the incident when Xihou Guishuang attacked the Qin army's grain team, broke his teeth in front of the Qin people's chariots, and was defeated in the end.

The old things repeat themselves. If Touman Shanyu, like Guishuang Xihou, keeps investing his troops to besiege the Qin army's chariot formation, I am afraid that after this battle, the Xiongnu will be over.

Just at this time, two personal guards of King Guli came and asked Da Shanyu to send people to support them, saying that the Qin army's chariot formation was about to be broken, and as long as a few more people were added, they would be able to break in and kill the Qin army. annihilate.

Touman Chanyu did not reply immediately, but turned to the nobles beside him with a sullen face, and asked, "What do you think?"

The nobles looked at each other in blank dismay.

Among them, Hu Yantiao said that although the Xiongnu cavalry suffered a lot of casualties, the Qin army in the chariot formation also suffered casualties. As long as they increase their strength, they will definitely wipe out the Qin army here and win the battle.

This point of view is supported by most people. After all, nearly one hundred thousand of them came here to attack the Qin army's chariot formation with thousands of people. If they return without success, what is it called?

Not to mention that so much investment in the early stage, so many people died, and retreating at this time, wouldn't it be a complete loss?

Under this mentality, most of the Xiongnu nobles are clamoring for more troops to support, and they will definitely annihilate the Qin army crossing the river.

Touman Shanyu looked at the general on the right, and asked, "Yi Hanxie, you came up with the idea of ​​attacking halfway, what do you think?"

Yi Hanxie bit the bullet and said: "Da Shanyu, as long as we increase our troops, we will be able to take down this Qin army sooner or later. With the Qin army's equipment, everything will be worth it."

Touman Shanyu was expressionless, but finally looked at Su Jiasha who had been silent all the time, and asked, "What does your lady mean?"

Su Jiasha narrowed her eyes slightly, stared at Touman Shanyu's face, and said: "It's better to withdraw. The people of the grassland will advance when they see benefits, and retreat if they are unfavorable. Now the Qin people's chariot formation is difficult to break, and there are Qin people's boat masters on the Beihe River. The army will come to support at any time, since the quick attack is not enough, it is better to retreat to preserve strength, and then deal with the Qin army."

Yi Hanxie frowned, glanced at Su Jiasha, lowered her head and said no more.

But Touman Shanyu smiled, nodded and said: "Your lady is right, the chariot formation of the Qin people is like the shell of an old turtle, and it can't be beaten in a short time, let alone their boat masters. Troop transport on the South Bank..."

As he said that, Touman Shanyu looked towards the Beihe River, and saw that the Qin boats were already docking on the south bank, and the Qin soldiers in black armor were boarding the boats in an orderly manner.

At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it, but if you observe carefully, you will find that these Qin people are moving very slowly, as if deliberately delaying time.

As the wolf king on the grassland, Touman Shanyu has experienced battles all his life, so he has a keen sense of smell, and he smelled something unusual from this incident.

In addition, he had already been fooled by Zhao Tuo twice, and he was always jealous of him, so he already had the intention of quitting at this moment.

Seeing that the situation is not right, it is better to withdraw first.

He took a deep look at Qin Jun on the far bank of the river, then stared back at General You and Huyan Tiao, and finally gave the order.

"retreat!"
