248.Chapter 248
When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins.
Nearly 50,000 Xianbei cavalry had just mustered up the courage to return to battle. At this time, the leaders of the various Xianbei tribes naturally couldn't be afraid.
Xianbei people advocate warriors, and the coach doesn't move forward, how can others fight to the death?
In order to boost the morale of the army, those Xianbei tribal leaders all shouted loudly and took the lead in killing the cavalry of Bingzhou.
The Xianbei soldiers behind him, seeing that the coach was so desperate, suddenly became bold, and his heart was no longer afraid.
Zhao Yun looked at the Xianbei people who rushed over, and shouted: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, and the generals will follow me to kill the tribal leaders in front." ”
When Dian Wei and the others heard this, they all narrowed their eyes, and their whole bodies were full of strength, ready to suddenly break out at the moment of confrontation.
Zhao Yun saw the general at the front of the Xianbei people. He was calm, wanting to kill the man in a turn.
Today, the Bingzhou army is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, and the only advantage is that the generals are brave and the morale of the soldiers is high.
Under these circumstances, it is not a wise decision to fight head-to-head against the Xianbei people. Only by quickly killing the opposing commander, so that the Xianbei people are leaderless, and the state army can win this war relatively easily.
Kobi can run at the front, but in his heart, he is not as fearless as he appears. The bravery of Zhao Yun and Dian Wei, during this time, has made the Xianbei people frightened.
However, now, it took him a lot of effort to make these Xianbei warriors of these small tribes muster up the courage to return to fight.
If he did not show enough courage, the Xianbei soldiers who were already afraid behind him would definitely not dare to engage the Han army.
What Kebineng has to do now is to save his life at the moment of confrontation with the generals of the Han army. If the two armies are mixed together, the soldiers of both sides will be staggered.
At that time, the Xianbei people could rely on their numerical advantage to slowly gain the upper hand in the battle.
On the contrary, if he and those tribal leaders had clashed with the Han army, many people would have been killed. Then, the Xianbei soldiers behind him will definitely collapse again.
Kebineng was gambling on whether he and the Xianbei tribal leaders would survive the first charge of the Han army alive.
If they can, the Xianbei people will win; If they can't, they'll collapse again.
It's a big gamble, a gamble that will decide the outcome of both sides.
The sky was white, and the wind was still howling. Seeing that the two armies were getting closer and closer, Zhao Yun calculated the right time and suddenly stabbed out the spear in his hand.
Kebineng's eyes shrank, and he shouted in his heart: "As long as you survive one move, this confrontation, Xianbei will not be defeated!" ”
Kebi could know Zhao Yun's bravery, so he didn't have the heart to fight Zhao Yun at all. Seeing Zhao Yun's silver spear stabbing at him, Kebi was able to rely on his superb riding skills and suddenly dodged under the horse's belly.
Zhao Yun seemed to have expected Kebi to act like this. He held the gun in both hands, and with all his strength, changed the stab to smash.
After several years of growth, Zhao Yun's martial arts have become more exquisite. His seemingly not majestic body has an extremely amazing explosive power.
"Poof!"
Kebineng's war horse couldn't withstand Zhao Yun's heavy blow at all, so he directly screamed and fell to his knees. Kebineng, who was hiding under the horse's belly, was caught off guard and was crushed to the ground by the war horse.
The cavalry charged, and to stop was to die. Zhao Yun, who smashed Kebineng's war horse, had already staggered past him, and there was no chance to kill Kebineng again.
Zhao Yun, who was fighting while advancing, was unwilling to let go of the Xianbei general, and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Kill that person!" ”
Kebineng's cavalry, when they saw their leader fall off their horses, went crazy and wanted to come to the rescue.
But behind Zhao Yun, Zhao Huang and Tang Chen had already taken the soldiers of the Bingzhou Army and killed them. After the violent collision, Tang Chen relied on his own bravery and killed five people.
Zhao Huang, who has never been inconspicuous, was the first to stab to death and was crushed to the ground by the war horse. Then he showed superb riding skills, and in the process of running, he quickly cut off Kebineng's head.
When Kebineng's head was picked up in mid-air by Zhao Huang. The Xianbei cavalry, who was still menacing just now, suddenly seemed to be a little commotion.
On the other side, Dian Wei took Jiang Wu and Hu Chuquan and pushed them all the way. The leaders of the Xianbei tribe who rushed to the front suddenly fell one after another.
When the two armies are fighting, they can only be invincible if they are fearless in their hearts.
The performance of Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and others made the morale of the soldiers and soldiers behind them high. 20,000 cavalrymen, each fighting bravely to be the first, desperately killing the enemy.
On the other hand, on the Xianbei side, many tribal leaders were killed, making these scattered Xianbei cavalry leaderless.
If Kebi didn't die, with his prestige among the Xianbei people, he would still be able to barely maintain this detachment. But at the moment when the two sides collided, his head was picked up in the air by the Han army.
The fierce collision made the battlefield like a meat grinder, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.
The Xianbei cavalry, attacking the camp of the Bingzhou army during the day, had no time to rest. was chased and killed by Zhao Yun and others for another night at night, and he was already exhausted and exhausted.
Coupled with the death of Kebi Neng and the leader of the Xianbei tribe, this made the Xianbei cavalry, which had just mustered up courage, begin to collapse.
In the battle on the battlefield, once the momentum is dissipated, no matter how many people there are, they will become lambs to the slaughter. A decisive battle between cavalry turned into a chase battle.
The morning light sprinkled a little golden light. The morning glow on the horizon was also dyed red by the sun.
The soldiers of the Bingzhou army, riding high-headed horses and stepping on the beautiful morning glow, caught up with one after another Xianbei cavalry and cut off their heads.
The blood and the red morning glow, like twin sisters, all bloomed with incomparable beauty.
Since last night, the state army has been pursuing and fighting for several hours. Even Jiang Wu, Zhao Huang, and Tang Chen were all panting and exhausted.
The horses they stepped on were obviously weakened, and their speed was getting slower and slower.
Zhao Huang was cautious, he came to Zhao Yun's side and said to Zhao Yun: "General, the sons and daughters have been fighting all night, and they have already become sleepy and tired. Do we now give the order to temporarily stop the pursuit and rest in place? ”
Zhao Yun's face also had a hint of tiredness.
However, he shook the spear in his hand and shouted, "We are sleepy, and even more so those Xianbei people. Now that such a fighter has finally arrived, if you don't take this opportunity to expand the results of the battle, how can you match Mr.'s plan? ”
At this time, Zhao Yun's prejudice against Cheng Yu also began to be eliminated. It can be said that if there was no Cheng Yu, there would not have been their victory.
With 20,000 cavalry, he defeated more than 100,000 Xianbei cavalry and beheaded nearly 40,000, what a brilliant record!
Zhao Yun was angry and shouted loudly: "In the past, the hussar general Huo Quai, it was in the Wolf Juxu Mountain that he destroyed 70,000 Huns in the first battle, so he worshiped heaven and earth on the mountain and erected a monument to leave his name. ”
"Our victory is no worse than the exploits of the Han hussar general Huo Quai. On the occasion of the meritorious deeds that have left a name in history, can the armies feel tired? ”
The legend of Huo Qu's disease has been circulating in the north. Even the 10,000 Hun cavalry were as respectful as gods for Huo Quai.
Listening to Zhao Yun's words now, their brilliant victory is no worse than Huo Qu's illness at the beginning. When these soldiers heard this, how could they not rejoice?
They raised their weapons and shouted in a loud voice: "Kill! Kill! Kill! ”
The morning glow is a companion, and the morning breeze is a friend.
Zhao Yun led the cavalry under his tent and pursued for nearly a hundred miles. It wasn't until some of the horses began to foam at the mouth that he gave the order to stop the pursuit.
In this battle, more than half of the cavalry casualties in Bingzhou were killed, but more than 50,000 Xianbei people were killed. More than 30,000 war horses were captured, and the head of the leader of the Xianbei tribe was obtained, more than 20 people.
In addition, the Xianbei people lost countless grains and grasses, which were also captured by the state army.
Since then, the Xianbei people have heard of the reputation of the state army and avoided it like a snake and scorpion. The names of Zhao Yun and Dian Wei can stop the night crying of Xianbei children.
The wolf lives on the Xu Mountain, and the flag is flying.
Zhao Yun looked at those once, once familiar faces, and fell to the ground forever. His heart was cut like a knife.
Last night's rush and pursuit, coupled with the Xianbei people killed in the previous battle. After this battle, more than 60,000 Xianbei people were killed and wounded.
However, under Cheng Yu's plan, the casualties of the Bingzhou army were still very large.
During this time, whenever the Xianbei people attacked the camp, they were stopped by 20,000 foot soldiers. Today, there are 20,000 elite foot soldiers, and the casualties have exceeded 8,000.
Of the 20,000 cavalry under Zhao Yun's account, less than 10,000 remained. Among them, the surviving Hun cavalry has exceeded 6,000.
After the first battle, the brilliant record was accompanied by unbearable losses. It can be said that the Bingzhou cavalry established by Chen Xu was basically wiped out in this war.
Zhao Yun said with some sadness: "The mountains are high and the road is far away, and their corpses can't be brought back to Bingzhou at all." Do you want to bury the bones of these warriors who died in battle? ”
Cheng Yu said: "This unprecedented victory is enough for them to go down in history." Once, the Han hussar general Huo Quai, defeated the Xiongnu here. ”
"Today, the son of my Han family has once again defeated Xianbei. We should go to the court and re-canonize this barren mountain. Then the names of the soldiers who died in the battle were all engraved on the stone tablet. ”
"As for their corpses, they were burned to powder by the fire, and they will always accompany this stone tablet!"
Speaking of this, Cheng Yu was a little excited and a little embarrassed.
Regarding Cheng Yu's proposal, Zhao Yun felt very reasonable, so he did not refuse.
Subsequently, Zhao Yun asked people to build altars here, carve stone tablets, and worship heaven and earth. Then, the names of all the people who participated in the battle were engraved on it.
As for the heads of those Xianbei people, they were all built into a Jingguan and piled up in front of the stone monument, forming a small mountain.
