The crossbow soldiers of the Qin army, which gave the Huns a headache, all carried arrow bags and followed the Wugang chariot slowly, and on the left and right sides were the phalanx composed of spearmen, swords and shields of the Qin army, who strode forward in small steps to the beat of the drums, maintaining equal speed.

Although it was very neat, in Tou Mandan's eyes, the originally tightly knit Qin army front, once it moved, it revealed a huge flaw in vain!

Especially on the right! As the Qin array moved forward, a gap half a mile wide appeared......

A cavalry of more than 6,000 horsemen slowly walked out from behind the formation!

It was the Qin people's chariot cavalry reinforcements that arrived, looking at this posture, the Qin generals relied on the reinforcements, gave up the defense, and wanted to fight with the Huns!

"This single Yu can't wait for the Qin army to fight with me!"

Touman Shan Yu laughed out loud, and said to the Xiongnu nobles who persuaded him to withdraw: "He has reinforcements, and I have them too!" Go and let the big boss Su Busheng come and see me! ”

Xu Busheng was ordered by Touman to take more than 10,000 people to help the herd grazing in Tiger Mountain, but unfortunately he was one step late, so that this Qin army rode first, and the two thousand Hun cavalry and herdsmen were killed, and the livestock were also dispersed, and they could not be found for a while. This is also the reason why the Xiongnu nobles are worried and do not want to fight a tough battle, and the Huns have no herd, which is equivalent to running out of food.

But Tou Man Shan Yu felt that at the moment, General Qin didn't know what to do, and suddenly gave up the flawless array, and moved forward to fight, which was a great opportunity for him to redeem a small setback, win a big victory, and win the supreme glory!

If you can defeat tens of thousands of Qin troops here, seize their weapons, armor and baggage, and take away the people and craftsmen. Then, even if he loses Henan and Beifake to the main force of the Qin army, he can still establish great prestige, escape to Mobei, and make a comeback in winter......

So, Tou Manshan Yu also ordered his subordinates to retreat and make room for several miles.

He knew very well that the Hun cavalry was not good at positional combat, but liked to gallop and maneuver, and they needed a large space as a battlefield in order to play to their strengths.

When the Huns moved en masse, the wet Dadanghu Subsheng also arrived, he dismounted and prostrate in front of Toumanshan Yu, for his failure to save the herd, and let the Qin army chariot escape under his nose, and even crossed the river to come back in a circle to plead guilty.

In addition, there is another thing that Su Busheng is very concerned about.

"The survivors of Tiger Mountain said that the cavalry of the Qin army that attacked them had strange harnesses......"

In the eyes of the Xiongnu herdsmen, the attacker's high saddle was said to be "a bed on horseback", and the stirrups on the feet were said to be "boots on the horse", which sounded very bizarre.

It's a pity that the Qin army came and went like a fly, and there was not even a single corpse left, and Xu Busheng didn't see the real thing, so he could only describe it to Tou Manshan without evidence, but it was a bit like he was making excuses for his defeat.

"Ju Taifu, is it the harness described by the big boss in the Central Plains?"

Shan Yu looked at Ju Wu, old Ju Wu shook his head blankly, not to mention their Yan Kingdom, not even Zhao Guo, who was the best at cavalry.

So Tou Man Shan Yu didn't think so, and Xu Busheng wanted to say more, but was stopped by Shan Yu and said: "Big boss, don't fight with the Qin people several times, and you will be scared!" ”

Su Busheng hurriedly shut up.

Touman put away his anger and said: "The hunter will give the hound three chances, the first time and the second time to let go of the prey, you can be forgiven, as long as the third time, the hound can bite the fox rabbit to the death and give it to the owner!" ”

Su Busheng knew that he was Shan Yu's hound, Huamachi and Tiger Mountain, and he had lost twice in a row.

Tou Manshan Yu pointed to the cavalry on the right side of the Qin army's array and said, "I heard that last year, it was that cavalry general who wiped out several tribes along the river and cut out their eyes, what is his name?" ”

"Li Xin."

Ju Wu reported the name of the Qin general, he will never forget, many years ago, it was Li Xin who defeated the chariot cavalry troops of Yan State, and chased the king of Yan and the prince to Yanshui, that battle, and made Yan Kingdom fearful.

Now, if he can be allowed to die here, it can be regarded as revenge for the tens of thousands of Yan people who died tragically!

Tou Manshan Yu nodded, he planned to confront the Qin army's chariot and foot soldiers led by the four thousand cavalry generals in his headquarters, and let Xu Busheng take more than 10,000 cavalry to attack the Qin army's chariots.

"Li Xin is the enemy of the Helan Huns, and this revenge should be avenged by the Helan people themselves! This is my prey! The fox rabbit that ran away last time wants you to bite off its neck this time! ”

"The Subu family will have an extra son named 'Xin'! I won't let Da Danyu down again! ”

When the Hun warriors fought a decisive battle with a person, they always knew his name first, and often named his son after the name of the defeated warrior.

The big man slammed his hand on his chest, then mounted his horse and left, to direct his men, who had just crossed the river and were still wet, to prepare to attack the enemy.

Thinking of the strange harness he said before, Ju Wu said worriedly: "Li Xin is the best general in the Qin State to use chariots and rides, Da Dan Yu, you still have to be careful." ”

"The Qin pawn who is the best at riding a horse is only equivalent to the Huns' riding sheep and shooting rabbits."

Tou Man Shan Yu disdainful, the Qin people's weapons and armor are excellent, and their car formations are also flawless, but the car riders, hehe, the three thousand chariots and horses in Shangjun, under the attack of the Hun cavalry, there is no power to fight back, in the past few small battles, there are often hundreds of Qin cavalry besieging dozens of Huns but being defeated.

He smiled contemptuously: "Qin Jiang is inflated, it's okay for them to hide behind the car, and they are fighting on horseback, how can they be the opponents of the Huns?" By the way, what is the name of the Qin general who commanded this Qin army head-on? ”

Ju Wu has learned something about the border generals of the Qin army, no matter how to block the border, on the Daibei side, there are always Yan Zhao Haoxia, who is dissatisfied with Qin and eager to restore the country, secretly communicates with him, and those people can even get the news from Xianyang a few months ago.

He squinted his eyes, looked at the big banner with the word "Wei" in the Qin army's array, and said hesitantly: "Maybe it's the Beidi County Captain, the Heifu who was given the Captain by the Qin Emperor." ”

The word Heifu, translated into Xiongnu, is pronounced as "Hari".

Ju Wu said: "I heard that his face is black, he is Hari Huen, and he was trusted by Emperor Qin, saying that he is his own hunting dog, that is, Hari Naohai." ”

Hari Hune means black, and Hari Naohai is a black dog.

Tou Manshan Yu did not dislike it, but felt that this name was excellent and catchy. And in the Xiongnu language, the words "black and white" are polysemy, and "Hari" in addition to black, also has the meaning of huge and majestic, just like the black sky they look up at every night......

So Touman said happily: "Okay, after destroying the Qin army in this battle, killing Nahari Huen, and cutting off his head to make a drinking vessel, I will also change my son's name to Hari." ”

The son that Touman mentioned was the youngest son born to his most beloved Yan clan and wanted to be made the crown prince......

"In many years, after I die, he will be the 'Hari Danyu' established by heaven and born by the sun and the moon!"

……

"Pass the order down, so that each department is lined with five horsemen, twenty paces before and after, four steps left and right, fifty steps between the teams, ten horsemen and one officer, one hundred horsemen and one rate, two hundred horsemen and one general, and a hundred steps away from each other vertically and horizontally."

When Tou Mandan Yu was dreaming of adding a new wine vessel to himself and changing his son's name, Fu Zhi, who was ordered to command all 1,000 knights of the good family, was also conveying General Li's orders to his subordinates after both partners were injured for some reason.

Taking advantage of the high morale of their own side, the Huns were cowardly and moved forward to meet the Huns, which was the proposal of General Li Xin, and General Wei agreed after several hesitations.

"In this battle, the victory of the cavalry battle should be the first."

Heifu also continued to hand over the command of a thousand Liangjiazi knights and two thousand cavalry in Beidi County to Li Xin. In Heifu's view, in the past, the cavalry in the Qin army was just a subordinate of the chariot soldiers, doing some tasks such as cutting off the grain route, reconnoitring the enemy, and chasing the fugitives. The small number of cavalry under the command of various generals was scattered in various battlefields and fought separately, and it was impossible to form a large cavalry force under unified command.

But in the face of the Huns, who came and went like the wind, the cavalry, as a valuable mobile force, should be concentrated and handed over to those who can give them the most strength!

Heifu thought he couldn't do it, but Li Xin could!

In the early years, the exploits in Yunzhong and Taiyuan, the fame of chasing Yan Prince Dan, the effectiveness of running Qiangdi, and the two raids last year and this year, Li Xin deserved to be the most powerful chariot general in the world.

The sharpest spear should be handed over to the most courageous and fearless man, and Heifu felt that he, as an acquired learner, should hold the shield well.

And Li Xin also asked Heifu to take charge of the infantry in Shangjun on his behalf, and the infantry cavalry commanded separately and fought together.

And in this operation, the long-hidden weapons of Longxi and Beidi are finally going to come in handy.

There were 2,000 cavalry in Longxi equipped with high saddles and stirrups, and 1,000 in the north.

Their horse harness, as well as the new tactics that have been practiced for more than a year, are the key to this battle, and they are also the courage of Heifu and Li Xindan to face 50,000 Hun cavalry with 30,000 men!

The war horse neighed softly, and Fu Zhi thought of the situation when the two generals were discussing the battle strategy under the building car, and also said loudly to his subordinates:

"General Wei said that raising soldiers for a thousand days is a while!"

And General Li said that the previous battles were all small battles, but today's battle was a head-on fight with the Hun cavalry! The success or failure of our Qin cavalry is all tied to this battle! ”

"That's right, it's a mule or a horse, it's up to today!" Everyone laughed and joked, or soothed their own tension.

The knights of a thousand good families in the north are the most at war with the Huns, and they have been killed or disabled in battle every day, and they have all held back their strength, and they are not strong enough to fight the small forces of the Huns, they have long wanted to have a big battle with the Huns!

The same is true of Fu Zhi, his two companions, Qiang Hua, were seriously injured and could not ride due to the cold arrows of the Condor Shooter, and the other hid and escaped alone for a long time, so weak that he could not shoot the bow.

In this battle, he is not alone, but carries the fighting spirit of the two partners!

While the Qin cavalry was advancing slowly, a few miles ahead, the Huns also retreated to what they thought was open enough, turned around and prepared to attack.

But no matter how much he retreated, he still did not leave the area where the two rivers intersected, which was five miles wide before, and now, it is only eight or nine miles.

The battle area is so large, and the line of the Qin army's infantry occupies most of it, leaving not much area for the cavalry to fight, which also means that the Hun cavalry will lose the advantage of maneuvering and pulling, and a head-on collision will be the most intuitive way to fight!

"It's good for us!"

Fu Zhi clenched the "mace" in his hand, and the knights of the Liangjiazi also checked the three-foot iron sword on their waists and the seven-foot spear in their hands.

Their main combat method is not the traditional mounted shooting, dismounted foot shooting, but impact!

On the opposite side, the Huns were in a roar, preparing to launch an attack on the Qin army that had left their original positions! Fu Zhi could even hear their voices, although the distance was far away, but it was rapidly approaching: the sound of ten thousand horses galloping!

At the same time, the drum beat sounded, and when I looked back, Li Xin's handsome flag had been raised high, and the command flag was pointing diagonally forward, which was an order to advance!

The herald with a small flag on his back galloped in and shouted out Li Xin's oath words.

"General Li said that this battle needs to be known to the Huns!"

"The Qin army has the hardest shield! There are also the sharpest spears! ”

The shield is a foot soldier, and the spear is a cavalryman.

"The strength of my shield, things can't be trapped! The benefits of my spear are all trapped in things! ”

After the herald galloped, Fu Zhi repeated his words loudly, and let the people pass to the rear, and raised the weapon high.

"Dayuan cavalry, Yiqu cavalry, Liangjiazi cavalry, and 3,000 cavalry followers from the north, all follow the general's orders, charge, and meet the enemy!"

Thousands of beryllium blades were held high and glittered in the sun, and thousands of words with different accents chanted in unison.

"Qin rode a sharp spear, and the ghost cried wolf!"
