Three Kingdoms

The sun began to shift westward, and Fei Qian stood on top of the mound, just looking at it was thrilling.

Although the battle between the two sides on the flat ground is naturally not as cruel and brutal as defending and attacking the city, the battle between thousands of troops and horses galloping against each other, life and death in a short moment, is also extremely bloody.

The knights on both sides had their outermost layers cut off almost in the blink of an eye!

War is so cruel, and there is no preference because of differences. The so-called favor of the God of War is actually more often an excuse to comfort oneself, and more often it requires careful preparation before war. and fighting bravely in the war.

Zhao Yun rushed at the front, his spear shook open, and gorgeous blood-colored flowers bloomed. The attack range of his spear is wide, large, and flexible. No matter whether the Xianbei on the opposite side is dodging or parrying, it seems to have no effect. As long as it touches, it will definitely be a bloody wound, and the Xianbei army forward will be killed instantly. Everyone can solve the problem!

The impact and attack capabilities of the Han cavalry army were not as bad as later generations said. Some descendants believe that the Han Dynasty could defeat the Hu people only by using strong crossbows or infantry and chariot formations. However, in fact, the Han cavalry army in this era was only stronger than the Hu people!

Although in terms of equipment, there may still be some gaps between the well-equipped and well-protected cavalry of later generations, but the courage of the Han Dynasty to dare to fight head-on was even better than that of later generations.

But after all, it is a congenital deficiency. No matter how brave the Han cavalry is, it is still at a disadvantage to the Hu cavalry in terms of numbers. The ability to control the scene is inevitably somewhat lacking, which allows the Hu cavalry with a large number of cavalry to choose the place and method of fighting at will. Therefore, they often appear passive. If they win, it will be difficult to pursue them fiercely, and if they lose, they will find it difficult to retreat smoothly.

Therefore, as long as the Han cavalry captured the main force of the Hu people, they would usually be victorious, but if they were led away by the Hu people, they would usually end up in failure.

But at this point, Fei Qianquan has taken control of the Han's elite light and heavy cavalry, and each has some of them under his command. Therefore, the most important thing is to let the Xianbei people stick to the battlefield they have chosen and not escape easily!

Therefore, the number of people led by Zhao Yun must not be large. If there are more people, it will inevitably make the Xianbei people timid. Therefore, although Zhao Yun has an advantage in local battles, such an advantage cannot last long.

The Xianbei army was not only the first two groups of cavalry, but also used cavalry from both wings to join the battlefield. On the one hand, they used bows and arrows to support the flanks, and on the other hand, they continued to compress the activity space of the Han army's cavalry.

Therefore, now the Han cavalry is gradually falling into a disadvantage. If they rush to grab the outer circle, they will expose themselves to the range of bows and arrows. If they continue to move towards the inner circle, they will not only expand their numerical disadvantage, but also have no chance of doing so. Other benefits.

As the battle formation changed, even though Zhao Yun and the Han cavalry around him fought bravely, some of the Han cavalry had several arrowheads hanging on their bodies, and some were injured, they still kept roaring and refused to retreat. , but due to the numerical gap, the Han knights had a brief stalemate with the Xianbei cavalry. Not only were they unable to kill them back, but they also gradually became exhausted...

Originally, Xiao Wang Tuoba Guo Luo ordered only a thousand-man team to strangle Zhao Yun's troops. However, as time passed, the number of Xianbei cavalry who slowly joined the battlefield unknowingly exceeded this number. When the leaders of each tribe saw that the Han cavalry was in a weak position, they couldn't help but repeatedly ordered their men to join the battlefield. As a result, the Xianbei cavalry gathered more and more in the center of the battlefield, almost becoming a big knot. When the people in front fell off their horses, the people behind them replaced them. , one after another rushed towards the Han army in the center!

Although Tuoba Guoluo saw it in his eyes and wanted to correct it, he was worried that he would go too far and cause the Han army in the center to escape. What's more, his main energy was still focused on the three-color battle flag on the hill. , in case the Han army over there rushes out, it is necessary to adjust and dispatch combat forces in time, so it is left to these Xianbei men in the middle of the battlefield to yell and give orders.

These Xianbei men were a little worried at first, but when they saw the Han cavalry being pressed and beaten, they immediately felt that the strength of the Han cavalry was nothing more than this. If it weren't for the sharpness of their armor, they would have been able to support them long ago. No more!

Now the advantage on the battlefield lies within the expectations of Prince Tuoba Guoluo.

Although the Han army's cavalry are elite, they are small in number after all. If they can deal with this side, they cannot deal with that side. The situation in front of them is obviously that the Han army has to transfer all the Han army cavalry to other places to put out the fire, so they have to use Hundreds of horsemen and horses were sent out to forcibly delay the advancement of the Xianbei army in such a not-so-dangerous place!

But even if the Han infantry on the hill is added, how can this small force stop the Xianbei cavalry's horses!

If all the elite cavalry of the Han army that can roam on the battlefield are eliminated, it means that these Han army infantry can be manipulated at will!

Standing on a hill, so what if there is some terrain?

Presumably the other soldiers of the Han people are having to disperse and defend themselves everywhere. As long as these Han cavalry are defeated, even if they don't fight, the Han army's infantry will be surrounded for two or three days and the water source will be cut off. Collapse!

Then you can go to Han and take whatever you want, just like Bi Xiaowang said!

Fei Qian couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw the changes on the battlefield, and his hand tightly grasped the hilt of the long sword. Although Fei Qian had great confidence in Zhao Yun, he was still a little nervous and worried when he saw Zhao Yun surrounded by a large group of Xianbei cavalry.

What if Zhao Yun is too involved in the killing and misses the opportunity to break out?

"Come here!" Fei Qian stared closely at Zhao Yun's looming figure on the battlefield. Seeing the situation on the battlefield gradually deteriorating, he couldn't help but raise a hand and said, "Send the order..."

Before Fei Qian could finish his words, Zhao Yunhu roared in the battlefield: "Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Immediately, the spear in his hand was like a living hydra, attacking different Xianbei people around him almost at the same time. With the cavalry, the surrounding congestion disappeared!

Before the Xianbei cavalry could react, Zhao Yun was already in front with the Han cavalry beside him, waving his spears, cutting a bloody path, covering his men to retreat towards the hill where Fei Qian was, and there were still people left on the hill. The few archers who were still alive also tried their best to open their bows and fire arrows to respond to Pao Ze's retreat...

In the short fighting, the Han army already had fifty or sixty cavalry, while the Xianbei cavalry suffered even more losses. In the center of the battlefield, there were human and horse corpses everywhere. There were also some soldiers and horses that were seriously injured but did not die immediately, lying on the ground. He fell to the ground and screamed miserably. The original green grass has now been dyed red. This color quickly turned into purple and black, with deep imprints seeping into the soil...

Zhao Yun retreated with three or four arrows hanging. His bravery left a deep impression on the Xianbei people. They did not dare to get close to him. Although it was easier for Zhao Yun to escape, the arrows thrown from a distance The arrows were hard to guard against. Fortunately, the armor of ordinary soldiers of the Han army was of higher quality, let alone the armor of generals like Zhao Yun. Therefore, although the arrows were hanging, they basically did not hurt the body.

Zhao Yun couldn't help but turn around on his horse, only to see the Xianbei army still surrounding and killing the Han cavalry who couldn't rush out in time, and he couldn't help but let out a loud tiger roar angrily: "Go! Go quickly!"

Zhao Yun angrily pulled out his long bow and fired a few arrows at the Xianbei cavalry who were chasing and shooting at him. Suddenly, every arrow was shot off the horse, and the Xianbei chasing formation was frightened. A soft!

After Zhao Yun finished shooting these arrows, he gritted his teeth, retracted his bow, waved his hand without saying a word, and led the remaining Han cavalry back toward Fei Qian's hillock.

At this time, the Xianbei cavalry on both wings were already very close. Seeing that the Han cavalry was almost passing by, they immediately started to squawk, like a duck that had reached its beak and had wings and flew away. The troops who followed Zhao Yun pursued him.

Fei Qian on the hillside was not surprised but happy when he saw this. As long as the Xianbei people could catch up to about half of them, the victory would be in their hands!

But then the Xianbei people's horns sounded in the distance again. This time, there was no sense of excitement or excitement in the voice, and it seemed a bit slow and dull. Huang Xu was right next to Fei Qian. He suddenly pointed his finger at the Xianbei army and said, "Your Majesty, the Xianbei army is no longer chasing! The Xianbei army is slowly closing in, ready to turn back!"

Fei Qian's heart sank suddenly. He looked up and saw that Xianbei's army was gradually slowing down and preparing to turn around in the gap!

Among the Xianbei Chinese Army in the distance, behind several Xianbei people holding horns and blowing into the sky, there vaguely seemed to be the Xianbei King Bi!

The Xianbei people did not have their own etiquette standards, and many things were copied from the Han people. However, it was not easy for the Hu people to obtain golden drums, so most of them replaced them with ox-horn horns. For generals with a thousand people, there are two trumpeters, and for generals with ten thousand people, there are four, and they increase in sequence. By the time King Budugen of Xianbei arrived, there were sixteen trumpeters and flag-bearers.

Although Xiaowang Bi of Xianbei did not display his own banner, the number of such bannermen was inadvertently exposed...

"This guy!" Fei Qian said, "He is indeed here!"

As Fei Qian, who has fought against barbarians many times, he is already quite experienced. If Xiao Wang hadn't given orders at the scene here, then these originally scattered Xianbei tribesmen would not have been able to form a decent formation, let alone achieve such exquisite coordination as now.

According to the temperament of the Hu people, it is normal to be greedy and short-sighted. Most people follow the path of martial arts and fighting on the battlefield, but there are not many who have an overall view and take the strategic route. Unfortunately, this A Xianbei Xiaowang is one of them...

Huang Xu said anxiously: "Junhou, what should I do? Do you want Captain Zhao to turn over and lure him again?"

Hearing this, Fei Qian hesitated for a while.

Seeing the Xianbei people gradually slowing down their horses and starting to walk back gradually, countless eyes turned to Fei Qian, waiting for his order. Beside Fei Qian, the soldiers also held the flag tightly. As long as Fei Qian gave the order, they could wave the flag, beat the golden drum, and notify them to go out!

what to do?

The Xianbei people's brigade in the distance is slowly gathering and regrouping into formation.

The generals of the Xianbei people are not idiots who automatically lower their IQs as soon as they go to the battlefield. They are also veteran generals who have experienced battles for a long time. They have also survived from tribes fighting one tribe after another. How could this be possible? A brainless person who just cooperates?

Zhao Yun led the army in defeat. Seeing that they could not close up and take full advantage, these Xianbei people did not greedily pursue the team of hundreds of people and expose their flanks. Instead, they approached step by step and stood firm. , without revealing any flaws.

Not blindly greedy for victory, but only seeking to be undefeated, this is the attitude that a general in charge of the army should have!

But such an enemy general makes it more difficult for him!

How to do this?

Send Zhao Yun back to kill him again?

No, let’s not talk about whether such a move is too obvious. Simply speaking, Zhao Yun has just commanded the Han cavalry and has fought hard, and his physical strength has also been exhausted. Even if Zhao Yun is brave, this is not Changban after all. slope……

How about finding a baby for Zhao Yun to hold, maybe some of Zhao's inexplicable BUFF will be added to it?

Ahem...

Fei Qian frowned and carefully observed the situation among the Xianbei brigade opposite.

Behind the Xianbei soldiers holding horns in the distance, it seemed that they could vaguely see a few people behind them, pointing something here. Although the distance was too far to see clearly, Fei Qian could vaguely feel it. It seemed like I heard the mocking voices of these Xianbei people...

The Xianbei cavalry on the two wings gradually gathered inside, and only sent some rangers to protect the outside. They watched Zhao Yun and others escape, but they had no intention of chasing...

Those Xianbei Rangers spread out to both sides, maintaining sentinels and vigilance...

What are the Xianbei people thinking?

What would I do if I were from Xianbei?

Fei Qian's brows furrowed tightly. Things have reached such a point that it is no longer feasible to abandon the layout here and choose another battlefield. Now that we know that Xiao Wang on the opposite side is in the military formation, these Xianbei people must be buried here!

But what method should be used for such a cautious little king?

Um……

cautious?

cautious……

Fei Qian shouted loudly: "Zichu! Go behind the hill quickly, lead the four hundred cavalry out, and cover Colonel Zhao's turn! Tell Captain Gan not to lead the troops!"

"Junhou, this..." Huang Xu hesitated a little. Although he could ride a horse, he could not command the cavalry. On the other hand, he was Fei Qian's personal guard. If he left, what would happen to Fei Qian's side?

"It doesn't matter! It depends on the situation. The Xianbei people still need to form a team. They won't be able to attack for a while..." Fei Qian said, "Wait until you and Colonel Zhao join forces, then leave the flag there and quietly Just retreat...and then tell Captain Zhao to lead the cavalry and press forward slowly! Remember! Press forward slowly!"

Isn't Xianbei's Bi Xiaowang just cautious? Isn't he just worried about what problems he will have here?

good!

Then I will reveal one of my trump cards and throw it on the table!

Don't you think there's an ambush here?

good! Now let me show you, I do have an ambush here!

So now, it's your turn to believe it or not...
