Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1999: Cavalry evolution, rafting on the sea of ​​blood

When the Xianbei scouts came in a hurry, although Liu Qiang was directing the attack on Changshan's inner stronghold, he also discovered this anomaly.

Changshan Inner Village looks like a wooden wall on the outside, but in fact there is an extra layer of rammed earth inside! On the turrets of the surrounding watchtowers, elite crossbowmen stood, specializing in shooting at the grassroots captains who were commanding on the front line. The counterattack arrows, firstly, the shooting angle was not good, and secondly, even if they shot into the watchtower, The small holes were often blocked by Han armor and had no very good effect, so Liu Qiang's attack was severely suppressed.

After a wave of attacks, Liu Qiang was asking his soldiers to organize their queues again, assign tasks, eat some dry food, and prepare to launch another attack before night fell. Then he saw the Xianbei scouts running towards him, and his heart skipped a beat.

Liu Qiang's close friend came over and whispered: "It looks like something has changed..."

"..." Liu Qiang's expression was like the darkening sky, "You quietly go and find out..."

Next to the Xianbei King Bu Dugen, the Xianbei leaders, big and small, couldn't help but stand up one after another, and their voices were mixed for a while.

"Han people?" Aren’t all the Han people gone? 』

"Who is coming?" Could it be another damn Han general? 』

"How could it come so fast?" 』

"Are the Han people hiding somewhere, and then..."

"Could it be us..."

"My lord, what should I do?" 』

"Your Majesty..."

These Xianbei leaders, big and small, were all shouting. On the grassland, most people have loud voices, and people in the distance who don't have a loud voice can't hear clearly. So unknowingly, these people's voices even drowned out the sound of horns, making the surrounding Xianbei people The soldiers all looked sideways.

The Han people came and went suddenly, which really surprised Bu Dugen.

Bu Dugen came to attack the Changshan camp. On the one hand, he heard that Zhao Yun had already left, and on the other hand, he had Liu Qiang as an internal support, so he rushed here. Of course, it went very smoothly in the beginning, beyond Bu Dugen's expectation, but now Bu Dugen couldn't help but set his sights on Liu Qiang.

Bu Dugen suddenly discovered that among all these links, Liu Qiang seemed to occupy too much, too many proportions! Zhao Yun left Changshan Camp. This was reported by Liu Qiang's people. The reason why the outer camp of Changshan Camp was captured so smoothly was because Liu Qiang's people broke through from the flank. But if all this is false, then...

Bu Dugen took a deep breath.

It's getting late.

Bu Dugen looked at the messy bosses around him, and his previous judgment became more firm in his heart.

Can't evacuate immediately...

After hearing the news, the big and small bosses were already panicking. If I ordered a retreat, I am afraid that there would be a huge rout immediately! By then, he had clearly conquered the Changshan Camp. Well, the Changshan Outer Camp was as useless as fetching water from a bamboo basket!

You must first calm down your military morale, and then if something really bad is going to happen, it is not too late to take advantage of the darkness and leave slowly!

Bu Dugen shouted: "Shut up!" 』

"Aren't you just Han soldiers and horses? Looking at you, can you still be called Xianbei warriors?" Changshengtian is watching! Bu Dugen looked around and said, "Who are the Han people?" ah? Didn’t we also capture Changshan here? So scared! Listen to me, the Han general who came here is not that one! 』

"Oh...no..." The big and small bosses suddenly felt a lot more relaxed and happy.

"Listen to what I have to say! ” Bu Dugen was very angry. As for what, if a Han general is afraid of being like this, if this spreads to ordinary Xianbei, where will he put this face? "The Han people must have seen the smoke coming here, so they rushed over. There were not many people, only more than a thousand!" It comes so fast, the horsepower will definitely not be able to take care of it! We have a physical advantage by resting here for so long! So what are you afraid of? ah? Who can stand here, that good man who is not Changshengtian, how come he doesn’t even have the courage to do this? How can you lead our sons like you? ah? 』

The big and small bosses suddenly fell silent, bowed their heads and bowed to Bu Dugen.

Bu Dugen slowly glanced around again and said in a more relaxed tone: "Anyway, haven't we already won?" So even if the real Han general comes back, we have already won! We don’t want this place. If Liu Qiang likes it, just leave it to him! As long as we take these things home, isn't that enough? Is it possible that you still want to stay and be with that Liu Qiang? 』

"Who wants to stay?" Of course we want to go back! 』

"Only fools keep it!" 』

"That's right..."

Bu Dugen nodded, "So now it's very simple, take advantage of the Han people coming from afar and have not recovered their physical strength and horsepower, and fuck them!" Then after repelling the Han vanguard, the Han people will definitely retreat. Then we can easily carry our things home! Is not it simple? Um? 』

The big and small bosses looked at each other and felt that what Bu Dugen said seemed to make sense. It seemed that it was the same thing. They gradually calmed down and were not as panicked as when they heard the news.

"I can't move here. If I move, I'm afraid Liu Qiang will stop fighting..." Bu Dugen said, "Which of you is willing to fight the Han vanguard?" All the trophies are his! Bu Dugen looked at everyone's reaction and added, "He can get 20% more from the harvest here!" 』

The money moved people's hearts, so two Xianbei leaders stood up and expressed their willingness to fight the more than a thousand Han army vanguards who came. Bu Dugen praised them greatly, and then asked the two to go and prepare.

After the two people left majestically, someone looked sideways at Liu Qiang in front of him and said, "Your Majesty, what should I do over there...?" 』

Bu Dugen smiled and said, "Leave him alone and let him continue the attack!" Doesn’t he want to be here in Changshan? 』

"But, he still has some of my sons..."

Bu Dugen's face darkened, "Erlang?" Isn't that my son over there? ! Focus on the overall situation now! When the time comes, I’ll just give you some support, don’t be so petty! I'm telling you, don't let the news leak out, there won't be anyone there then... Haha, after the break, just go up and fill it in! 』

……(⊙_⊙;)……

Most Xianbei people who grew up in the desert are familiar with the power of cavalry charge. Once upon a time, they were the only ones who attacked others. Unexpectedly, now, they have also become the target of being attacked. It feels like pulling out a dick to a cute girl, but unexpectedly, the cute girl turns around and pulls out a bigger dick than herself. Guys the same.

The Xianbei leader who came to meet Gan Feng obviously did not expect that the Han commander did not pause much. The two armies had not been facing each other for half a quarter of an hour, and he took the lead in launching the attack without even explaining the situation!

The earth trembled slightly, so much that the hands of the Xianbei leader trembled.

The Xianbei people know how terrifying the power of this impact is, and naturally they are in awe of this power...

The two of them originally thought that the number of people they brought was twice that of the other party, so the Han vanguard on the opposite side would be more or less scrupulous. In addition, it was getting dark, so as long as they delayed, they might not even need to fight. You can complete the blocking task, and then you can happily go home with the loot, which is 20% more!

But the sweet dream was now shaken and shaken. The two Xianbei leaders looked at each other and saw question marks in each other's eyes, which immediately turned into exclamation marks.

At this point, the only option is to fight!

"We are divided into two sides, the Han chooses which side, and the other side will shoot with the bow!" 』

"right! Old rules! Fight in circles! 』

After a brief discussion, the horns of the horns sounded dullly, and the Xianbei people divided into two arrows that were widely spaced apart, and faced the approaching Han army.

This is a common pattern among Xianbei people.

In fact, I was too timid to face the anus head-on, so I used a double arrow formation. When one arrow was facing the opponent, the other arrow was used to shoot, and then circled around the battlefield, grinding the opponent bit by bit. , eat. It's a tactic for dealing with strong enemies. If you're dealing with weak opponents, it's natural to ignore it and just go straight to A.

When the two sides collide, the distance shrinks rapidly, and they seem to be face to face in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, someone among the Han cavalry stood up, almost standing on horseback, raising the triangular flag in his hand high, and then the rushing Han cavalry was like a tide hitting a rock, suddenly falling from the triangle. Flags separate! Zhan Yu, slow down slightly!

Gan Feng, who was originally in the middle, was wearing heavy armor, waving his sword and shouting: "Follow me!" Ah ha ha ha, poke the ditch! 』

The original sharp triangular charge array of the Han army suddenly turned into the shape of a wild goose. The two wings were spread out by light cavalry, and the long-necked and sharp-mouthed one in the center was Gan Feng and other heavily armored cavalrymen of less than two hundred people!

In the gloomy sky, although the Xianbei leader facing Gan Feng could not see very clearly, from the overall outline, he could also tell that the guys like Gan Feng who were rushing towards him were obviously bigger, and he suddenly thought of something. , subconsciously opened his mouth wide, and screamed: "Be careful!" Avoid..."

However, it was already too late. Gan Feng rode with heavy equipment and rushed straight towards one of Xianbei's double arrows!

"shooting! quick! shooting! ” The Xianbei leader on the other side shouted loudly. Although he also saw the changes in the Han cavalry, he did not have time to make any stunning countermeasures. Naturally, he relied on inertia and asked his men to start flanking shooting according to the previous agreement in an attempt to harass and disrupt The speed and rhythm of the Han army's attack.

The Xianbei cavalrymen who had arrows in their hands immediately raised their bows and tilted the arrows above the heads of Gan Feng and others...

"Raise your shield!" 』

Although the black shadow of the arrows shot by the Xianbei people could not be clearly seen, the general action of bending the bow and shooting could still be seen, so Ganfeng roared suddenly, and then covered the small shield on his left arm on the head of the war horse... …

Yes, the light cavalry's shield is used to cover their heads and bodies, while the heavy cavalry's shield is used to protect their horses. As for the heavy cavalry's own body, it is all entrusted to the armor they wear. !

"Whoosh whoosh--" The sound of arrows piercing the air was endless, mixed together, as if a heavy rain fell from the sky, and rushed towards the galloping Han cavalry. Almost in an instant, the side facing the Xianbei people was like It was like countless thatch sprouting suddenly, and a lot of arrows were stuck in it!

"Hahaha! Very good! 』The Xianbei leader smiled and waved his arms excitedly. Just as he was about to give the order, he suddenly realized that something seemed not quite right...

Those Han cavalry did not stagger around because they were hit by arrows, causing the charging array to be disordered. On the contrary, these Han cavalry were still running wildly, as if those arrows were really just a few dozen thatch branches. Same, not affected at all!

To be honest, it is impossible to have no impact at all. After all, although the arrows of the Xianbei people cannot have the effect of breaking armor, they still have kinetic energy when they hit the body. Without the high bridge saddle and double stirrups, the cavalry's own riding skills alone may not necessarily be able to hit the arrows. Stabilize the center of gravity of the body during the percussion...

The Xianbei people also noticed something strange and exclaimed in surprise.

"The Han people are immortal..."

"Immortality is in the sky!" Han people, this is Han people’s sorcery! 』

The Xianbei leader shouted: "Shoot!" do not stop! Shoot! 』

Some Xianbei people softened their grip, while others continued shooting in a panic, but no matter what, they could not stop Gan Feng and others from moving forward.

Gan Feng had already seen the frightened face of another Xianbei man opposite...

"Stab in the mud ditch!" ” Although Gan Feng shouted that he wanted to “stab”, in fact, he swung the sword horizontally and stuck it on the special buckle of his saddle, and then his right hand seemed to hold the rocker mounted on the side of the ship. Generally, the cutting angle and extension length of the sword can be flexibly controlled!

After many experiments and improvements, it was found that when the cavalry of both sides are clashing, especially against thin-armored and unarmored units, slashing and piercing cannot bring more lethality than simple snap-cutting. , because as long as it comes into contact, whether it is chopping by manpower or cutting by horse power, it will be fatal. At the same time, not everyone is like Zhao Yun Ganfeng and others, who can quickly chop at the same target or multiple targets when the two sides are intersecting. Most people can only chop once, or at most two, between breaths.

Nowadays, the heavy cavalry of Gan Feng and others usually have two sets of weapons and equipment. One is still of the heavy spear and horse style, which is used when dealing with the opponent's heavy cavalry or infantry in dense battle formations. Another set of hanging knives is a long sword hanging flatly up to five feet and five inches long. With the special knife holder for the saddle, the maximum coverage length is close to seven feet! Cutting through unarmored or thinly armored targets at horse speed is especially suitable for dealing with these barbarian light cavalry in the desert.

Abandoning the diversity of attacks, it can improve the survival rate of cavalry on horseback to avoid damage. The instinct of war horses to stagger each other during confrontation will bring their own necks and the waist and abdomen of the rider to the edge of the knife. .

In other words, a heavy cavalry equipped with a horse is a steel needle or a rake, but if it is replaced with a sword, it becomes a plane or a pusher...

The cavalry on both sides shouted almost at the same time, and the next moment they collided!

Some of the Xianbei cavalry thrust out spears and iron forks, and more raised their sabers. With the speed of their horses sprinting, they slashed down Gan Feng and other Han cavalry head-on.

Then, it was "Dang!" 』

Then it was, "Tsk!" 』

Blood bursts out!

The heavy cavalry who concentrated on defense, with small shields and thick armor in their hands, most of them followed the requirements of the code of conduct and blocked the piercing attacks of spears, while most of the chopping types simply ignored them!

Because even if the armor is not punctured by the spear, it will cause the body's center of gravity to become unstable, causing it to fall off the horse or slow down the horse. As for chopping, in most cases it will not be able to break through the thick armor protection of the Han cavalry. It will spatter some sparks in vain and then slide aside.

Gan Feng and others were as powerful as tigers, using the speed and power of their horses to the extreme. With the sparks flying when steel collided with steel, the Xianbei cavalry was quickly harvested just like Zhuang He encountered a sickle!

Groups of Xianbei men and horses fell down, spurting out large amounts of blood. For a moment, the area where Gan Feng and others passed by felt as if the underworld had descended directly into the world, and as if the ground had turned into a sea of ​​blood. !

And Gan Ning is like Captain Hook standing on the bow of a boat rafting on a sea of ​​blood, shouting about this hook or that ditch, cutting through the wind and waves to move forward, forward! Stirring up waves of blood one after another!

The Xianbei cavalry confronting Gan Feng were completely unable to adapt to this attack mode and were caught off guard! These Xianbei cavalry often pay attention to the opponent on their right hand side, trying to use weapons to injure or knock down the Han cavalry, but their left side is cut by the knife extended by the Han cavalry on the other side!

Many Xianbei cavalry either had huge wounds cut on their horses' necks and staggered to the ground under the spray of blood, or they had horrific wounds on their waists and abdomens!

The blood of men and horses spurted out. Because most of the injuries to the Xianbei people were on the same side, most of the cavalrymen such as Gan Feng had their heads and faces sprayed on one side, and their bodies were immediately covered in blood. On the other side, most of them are relatively clean and tidy. Under the dark night, when you look at them at a glance, they look like half humans and half ghosts, which is extremely weird!

The two Xianbei leaders each commanded about a thousand cavalry. They originally planned to block them briefly, but before the confrontation, they also wanted to fight one by one. They were like a team with assigned troop lines and jungle tasks. Everything seemed to be in order. It was perfect, but as soon as I went out and met my opponent, everything fell apart instantly!

One of the double arrow arrays was snapped off as soon as it came up. The other one was stunned for a moment, and then all of them got numb at the same time. Then they saw the half-human, half-ghost-like Ganfeng whistling, and were about to turn around and look for it. When they arrived, they immediately had a tacit understanding and didn't even need to give orders. They just pulled and dispersed on the spot!

Seeing this, Gan Feng couldn't help but be stunned!

Dispersed array is the best way to deal with Gan Feng's charge mode. Just like a large field on the plain, the harvesters can only operate if the crops are neatly arranged. If there are only two or three trees on the east side and four or five on the west side, dispatching the harvester will not only have no effect, but will also waste time and effort.

Therefore, at first, Gan Feng thought he had encountered a strong opponent and could instantly adjust his formation to target him. However, the next moment he discovered that these Xianbei people were not adjusting their formation at all, but were really focused on escaping. Any intention of turning around and fighting, within the time he hesitated a little, he fled westward with his tail between his legs! Gan Feng couldn't help but curse loudly. He didn't know whether he was cursing himself or the Xianbei people, and then ordered two wings of light cavalry to outflank and pursue...
