"Look upstairs." Yan Rou pointed to Yuyang City and said to Yan Wuxing: "On the city wall on our side, our battle flags are gone, and all that is flying are the battle flags of the Hu people. This shows that after a while, the south gate of Yuyang City will be lost. In other words, almost all of our soldiers defending the southern city gate have been killed. There are 4,000 people in Yuyang City, and at least 2,000 troops at the South City Gate. According to the conventional algorithm, in a siege battle, the ratio of losses on both sides is generally about five to one. But for the heroic and warlike Hu people, this algorithm should be discounted in half. That's why I said that if all 2,000 of our army were killed, the Hu people would have to pay at least 4,000 men. ”

Yan Wuxing suddenly realized, and nodded convincingly. In my heart, I admired this horse thief who was like myself and once rampant in the prairie. No wonder even if this kid doesn't become a horse thief, some people want him, and he does have some real skills.

The Xianbei army in front of them was still lined up neatly and steadily, which showed that the losses of the besieging troops were still within the range they could bear. Moreover, our army is still holding on to the city walls, and has not abandoned the southern gate. Can this prove from the opposite side that the enemy's losses are not as much as Lord Yan said? Zheng Xin, who had been silent, said on the side.

"I don't agree with Ziyu's opinion. Our army is still better to repel the enemy and temporarily lift the siege of Yuyang City by the Xianbei people. This risk cannot be taken, once you can't eat the enemy, you will be stalemate with the opponent on the battlefield. At this time, as long as Xiongba's troops rushed over from the East City Gate, we would be the ones who were surrounded and annihilated. Xian Yufu said resolutely.

Yan Rou glared unconvinced, and was about to speak when she opened her mouth, but was stopped by Li Hong.

"Brother Ziyu, Brother Yu Xing's idea is right, it is really not suitable to take risks at this time, and it is better to take the raid and break the siege as the first goal. Hear what I think. ”

"The Xianbei archery troops are at the forefront of their entire formation, and neither we can use a zigzag or a goose queue to deal a devastating blow to them. But when we turn back for a second attack, the enemy's archery units may quickly regroup and fire heavily on our flank, which will inflict heavy casualties on our flank. ”

"So, I intend to attack from the enemy's flank, in a diamond-shaped array. The left flank of the diamond-shaped array is the main vanguard to attack the bow and arrow troops of the Xianbei people, and be sure to break them up and defeat them, so that they do not organize an effective counterattack and seriously injure our army. I led the scout Tun, the guard Tun 200 people in front, the Yujun Hou's 600 people in the left curve in the middle, and the 600 back curves of Brother Yu Xing were broken. ”

"The middle lane of the diamond array is also used as the main attack. Brother Ziyu's front song is 600 people in front, and Zhao Junhou's middle song is 600 people in the back. The enemy's fresh forces preparing to attack the city are concentrated here, and their defensive and counterattack capabilities are the most ferocious, so the attack in the middle is the most difficult. ”

"The right flank of the diamond array is an auxiliary attack. The siege troops that the Xianbei people withdrew to rest are all here, and they should all be tired divisions that are unbearable to fight again. Once we start a surprise attack, the first fear to flee and destroy the enemy's overall defensive position is here. The main purpose of our army is to disperse them, to annihilate them as much as possible on the basis of dispersal. Six hundred men on the right side of the beard undertook this task. ”

"What are your different opinions and opinions?" Li Hong asked. Everyone shook their heads in unison. Li Hong's attack methods are simple and applicable, with clear purpose and impeccable.

"Do you all know what you're doing?" Li Hong asked again, "I don't know, I can explain it again." ”

Seeing that everyone was excited and eager to try, Li Hong immediately smiled and waved his hand: "Go back and reorganize the queue." Let's disperse. ”

Tian Zhong and the guard Tun quickly stepped forward, and Zheng Xin's scout Tun formed a team of people, neatly lined up behind Li Hong's horse.

The heralds were running around in the night, a tense and busy scene before the battle.

Li Hong looked back at Tian Chong, who had a solemn face, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind: This veteran will definitely get his wish in the future and die on the battlefield with himself.

Tian Zhong smiled at him, drew an arrow from the quiver behind his back, and put it on the bow.

Li Hong kicked the horse's belly violently, and the panther was in pain, neighed, and took the lead in galloping out. Zheng Xin and Tian Zhong each led the team to follow.

Jade whipped his horse and led the men and horses of Benqu to move. At the same time, Yan Rou's troops in the middle also set off at the same time.

The troops of Xian Yufu, Zhao Wen, and Hu Zi were basically on the same line, and then their cavalry slowly sank into the boundless darkness.

Li Hong's heart is like stopping water. He was lying on the panther's back, and his body rose and fell rhythmically as the panther flew through the ground. He closed his eyes, let the wind blow in his face, and comfortably enjoyed the pleasure of running freely.

It's getting closer and closer to Yuyang City.

The soldiers could clearly hear the shouts and killings on the battlefield, the screams, the collision of swords and guns, the horns of the bulls under the city, and the war drums on the city; You can clearly distinguish the smell of blood floating in the air, the smell of burnt trees after burning, and the misery and pain that pervades the battlefield.

Murong Ji was very excited, he sat on the war horse, his spirit was flying, and he felt that his ability was no worse than Murong Feng at all. Murong Feng did not defeat Lu Longsai, but he Murong Ji did defeat Yuyang City.

He saw that the overall situation on the west city wall had been decided, and a smug smile finally appeared on his face. He then prepared to send a reserve force to reinforce the Horseman tribe in the city gatehouse. At this moment, the war horse he was sitting on suddenly jumped up and down in place, and Murong Ji was not paying attention and almost fell off the horse. Immediately afterwards, more horses were unusual, or raised their heads and neighed, or their hooves moved wildly, or they shook their heads and tails.

Murong Jifeng looked around vigilantly, and vaguely felt that something was not quite right in his heart.

Li Hong slowly sat up straight from his horse and held the steel gun in his hand.

It was as if he had drawn some strength from the steel spear, and suddenly it was as if he had changed a person, and his body was full of murderous aura.

He shouted: "Blow the trumpet, full speed ahead......"

On the battlefield, the Han army mainly commanded the troops to change formations and advance and retreat through flags and war drums and golden gongs. Li Hong thinks that the flag is silent, and how many people will look up at the command flag behind them when they are okay on the battlefield of fierce fighting, and the soldiers who fight at night cannot see the flag and lack flexibility. Although the war drums and golden gongs are good, they are not convenient for the cavalry to carry and use compared to the horns. Only the horns of the Hu people were suitable for cavalry. They can be hung around their necks and waists, and they can be ridden on high-speed horses at the first time to give orders. Therefore, Li Hong insisted on using the horn in the cavalry ranks.

The sound of a huge bull's horn suddenly tore through the black curtain and soared into the sky.

Murong Ji's eyes widened and he looked into the depths of the darkness in surprise.

He didn't know what kind of unit this was, how it could suddenly appear here. But he was familiar with the horn, and it was the sound of a pure horn. So he, like all Xianbei soldiers, intuitively thought that this was his own reinforcement.

The thunderous sound of horses' hooves grew clearer and louder, until it finally became a roar.

Li Hong turned around and saw that the cavalry army had divided into three huge torrents, and their morale was like a rainbow, sweeping towards the army of the Xianbei people.

Suddenly, he felt that his whole body was boiling with blood, and a stream of pride spurted out of his heart, and he couldn't wait to jump away with the galloping war horse.

He raised his steel gun and shouted with all his strength: "Hurry up...... Accelerate ......"

The sound of a huge bull's horn came from the depths of darkness again, accompanied by the roar of the galloping horses, and the atmosphere of tension and fear enveloped the hearts of every soldier in the city for a moment, and the mysterious and terrifying sense of fear overwhelmed them almost suffocated.

It's already very close to the formation of his own army, and he still blows the trumpet of the charge, either the enemy or hell. Even the troops of the Xianbei people are the troops of their own enemies. Murong Ji's face changed greatly, and he roared hoarsely: "Deploy the formation defense, set up the formation defense, the enemy raid, surprise attack, surprise ......"

Before his shout fell, the surrounding horn soldiers had already sounded the alarm horn, and the rapid and low horn sound suddenly resounded throughout the battlefield.

The soldiers were at a loss and did not know what was happening. Although the roar of the galloping horses had drowned out all the sounds on the battlefield, and although the hearts of the soldiers were tightly oppressed by the unknown forces in the depths of the darkness, they still subconsciously reacted quickly to the enemy under the command of the alarm horn.

However, Murong Ji and his subordinates immediately knew that it was all in vain.

A man and a rider suddenly flew out of the darkness, and their long flowing hair danced wildly in the wind.

Li Hong waved his spear and shouted: "For my big man, kill ......"

Tian Chong, Zheng Xin, Lei Zi, and the horn soldiers echoed in unison: "Kill ......"

The sound of killing suddenly sounded, shaking the entire dark night. More cavalry warriors heard the shouting, and they followed behind with all their strength and shouted: "Kill ......"

The Great Han Iron Rider was like a ghost in the night, and suddenly rushed out of the thick darkness in the midst of the sound of killing. They were like a flood breaking the embankment, whistling, roaring, roaring all the way, carrying the wind and thunder in the sky, with the momentum of thunder, destroying the Xianbei army.

On the city wall, Murong Feng led hundreds of assault fighters to advance with difficulty and blood. The soldiers on both sides had become ferocious beasts, entangled, tearing at each other, chopping with knives, slashing with axes, poking with spears, and biting with teeth. On the top of the city wall, which was just a few dozen paces away, the corpses had been covered with a thick layer, and blood had accumulated on the ground and began to flow down the stone steps. All they had in their ears was the screams of the enemy, and in their eyes there was only the body of the enemy, and nothing was more important to them than killing each other.

Murong Feng was slashed several times, and his body was drenched in blood. Several guards pulled him out of the pile of dead people. He lay on the battlements of the wall, his mouth wide open with difficulty, and he gasped for air. Then he saw an army of cavalry rushing out of the darkness. He screamed in despair, but a barely human whimper came out of his throat.

Murong Zhan stood on the left flank of the army and commanded. He stared dumbfounded, unable to believe his eyes. Did this Han support army emerge from the ground?

Murong Zhan shouted almost nervously: "Bow and arrow ready ......"

There were no archers behind him, no spearmen. Because it was a siege, the archers were all diverted from their respective units and concentrated under the city walls. During the siege of the city, the spearmen switched to the front of the assault force with swords and axes. Behind him, in addition to his own guards, he was the sword and axe man, ready to kill the next group of reserves to go up the tower. He could only choose to retreat, and he retreated alone.
