Chapter 757 Bloody battle on all fronts
It's easy to spell these two words, but there are still a lot of adjustments that need to be made before they can be implemented.
The leader first canceled the previous order to change formations, but instead ordered the two flanks to separate, and thus divided the military formation into three parts, each of which did not fight. The Chinese army no longer avoided the iron cavalry in front of them, but attacked with all their might, even if it could only consume the enemy's physical strength and could not form enough damage, they would use a cháo water-like offensive to drown the enemy.
Instead of half-heartedly thinking about avoiding the strong and weakening and promoting the emergence of the scum that shakes his morale, it is better to be ruthless and fight him to the death!
As Murong Feng said, the Han army was forced to do this, and only by appearing on the battlefield in this way could they catch themselves off guard, and there was no way to continue to echo with Bang Dun and complete the strategy of dividing and attacking together.
No matter what arrangements and preparations were made on the road, the Han army walked more than a hundred miles in one night and rushed to Juyong City, and their physical strength was insufficient, which was the biggest weakness of the Han army!
And the configuration of the Han army's troops, to a certain extent, also magnified this weakness.
Equipped with iron cavalry and horse chopping sword formations, the strength of soldiers and war horses is extremely high, and the current bravery does not mean that they can persevere in fighting to the end. Perhaps, Wang Yu's idea was to use the most ferocious three-plate axe at the beginning to directly scare himself away.
Hmph, I just didn't let him get his wish!
The leader is out of the way, no longer counting the differences between tribes, no longer thinking about rushing to the front, which tribe is the heaviest casualties, and what is the benefit to him, he has only one thought in his heart, at all costs, fight this Han army!
Whether it is for the great cause of the Xianbei people or the safety of the future, it is necessary to do so.
Otherwise, there is such an unpredictable ability to use soldiers, and he knows the habits of the grassland people very well, and he also has an invincible strong army under his command, and the princes of the Central Plains who hate the grassland people deeply, where will the Xianbei people have a good life in the future?
What does the future hold? Wake up! Only if you can live today can you have a future!
The two flanks that broke away from the main formation were not idle, and the leader ordered them to attack the two flanks of the Han army at once without waiting for backup, also at any cost.
He also saw that the two wings of the Han army were arranged with a lot of ironclad foot soldiers, and these people did not move fast, but they firmly held the two wings of the army formation, so that the Chinese army's horse and sword formation could concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front of them.
Even if it can't break through the defense line of the two flanks of the Han army, it can still form a partial containment effect, making the Han army's array disjointed, and even having loopholes, creating fighters for the main army.
In the end, in order to recover the previously lost morale and motivate the whole army to fight to the death, the leader left the hill where he was watching, held his big sword, and joined the attack sequence with all his personal guards.
The commander-in-chief is in the battle formation, this is the ultimate trick to boost the morale of the soldiers, as long as the general in command of the army has the courage to use it, the morale is the inevitable result.
In the later generations, Tang Taizong's invincible achievements actually came from this. Because Li Shimin is not the crown prince, he has more bachelor temperament than his brother Li Jiancheng, and he is more daring to work hard, and he was active on all fronts at the beginning of Liu Yuan's army. Therefore, he gathered a large number of well-known generals under his command and made countless military exploits.
It was his courage to brave the arrows and go to the battle in person that won the recognition of the soldiers and gave him a rich reward.
The steppe people paid more attention to this aspect, and whether the leader of the tribe watched the battle or joined the charging queue had a huge impact on morale. Su Li's previous move of abandoning the army and fleeing, but crashing into the sword of the Han army, greatly reduced the morale of the steppe warriors, and there were already signs of chaos and desertion in the front line of the fierce battle.
But when the horn sounded, the Kuitou, Murong Feng, and Tuoba Liwei Daxu rushed down the hillside and joined the charging queue, like thunder, and the 100,000 Hu cavalry broke out with the loudest cheers since the start of the war.
"Whoa......"
"Immortal Heaven bless Da Shan Yu!" The leading centurions shouted in unison.
"We are the descendants of the blue wolf, the scimitar is our claw, and the horse is our wing......" The steppe warriors sang the war song of the steppe, the song was desolate and rough, and the tune was low and eerie, like a spell passed down from ancient barbaric times to the present.
It was indeed like a spell, and together with the singing, Hu Qi suddenly seemed to be a different person, there was no longer fear in his eyes, and he no longer avoided the long lance and big knife of the Han army, as if he was going to die, and pounced on the opponent in front of him.
"Fight, fight, darlings of the Immortal Heaven, we are born hunters, and those who overcome can enjoy everything! Crossing mountains and rivers, erecting our battle flags over the ruins, turning the sun into a pasture for the strong......" while pounced on his opponent, chanting repeatedly, as if in this way he could ignore the sharp lances and blades of the Han army.
Of course, the strength of the Jing God cannot be invulnerable, but after the momentum of the Xianbei army changed, the bravery they showed did change drastically.
The assault of the iron cavalry lost its devastating strength, and Hu cavalry rushed forward one after another, killing one and a pair, even if it was extremely sharp, it could not change the reality that every cavalry had to deal with the enemy rushing up.
It was as if they had suddenly fallen into a quagmire, and after inflicting massive damage on the swarming enemies, the Iron Horse's speed suddenly slowed down, and the casualties increased. The enemy and us were stuck in one place, and they could no longer take care of the formation and queue, both sides were red-eyed, and the scene was chaotic.
"Stay in formation and move closer to me!" Zhang Liao swung his halberd again to pick off an enemy, and turned his head to shout to the brothers beside him.
Although the strategy of combing the enemy formation with iron cavalry and forcing the enemy cavalry to detour and slow down is good, the premise is that the enemy must refuse to fight to the death and will try to avoid the edge of the iron cavalry in order to achieve the pre-battle goal.
Now Hu Qi suddenly went crazy, and if he continued to stick to the original strategy, it would become a melee. Although the power of the iron cavalry is great, if you want to really exert your power, you have to rely on each other to support, the combat effectiveness of the lone iron cavalry is actually not much higher than that of ordinary cavalry, and the reduction of flexibility will weaken the advantage of the iron cavalry in defense.
The enemy was too numerous and the formation had become too dense, so it was necessary to shrink the formation as soon as possible, break it into pieces, and switch to chiseling tactics in order to continue to open the way for the infantry.
It was not easy to close the formation, but what gave Zhang Liao even more headache was the figure of the man and horse who rushed to the front like coals.
Lu Qiling fell into the encirclement again, this time it was not that she was greedy for merit, she only rushed forward slightly. The problem is that Hu Cai's change was too sudden, and he saw that she was the main general, and regarded her as a key target, so he threw nearly 100 cavalry into it in one go, and immediately isolated Lu Qiling from the team.
Zhang Liao was only thirty steps away from Lu Qiling, but he just couldn't break through this short distance.
There were too many enemies, and in a short distance of thirty paces, it was densely packed with people, blocking his horse's head, so that he had the mind to come forward to rescue but could not exert half of his strength. A horseman brandished a scimitar and rushed at him, but he flew with a halberd. But immediately after that, another Hu Qi shouted one after another, like a moth to a fire.
Zhang Liao had to make a difficult choice, whether to pick up the young son first, or to form the team first.
After a short and long hesitation, he made his decision.
"Uh......h Woo...... Woo! A slightly tragic horn resounded across the battlefield, an order for the whole team to assemble, and at the same time a signal to call for help from friendly forces.
The cavalry abandoned their opponents and began to gather their formations, trying to get closer to Zhang Liao, trying to form a hammer led by him to smash the quagmire enemy apart. However, due to the fact that the formation was stretched too long before, the difficulty of achieving the goal was not ordinarily high, and it would also consume a lot of time.
The closest to the Iron Cavalry were the light cavalry, but they couldn't come to their aid in time because they were also in trouble.
In addition to relying on the bravery of the main general, it was also related to Hu Qi's lack of arrangement in the joint position, which formed a weak link.
Now although Hu Qi has been divided, his weaknesses have also disappeared at the same time, whether it is to rescue the Iron Horse, or to do anything else, hundreds of light horsemen are too few. The most restrained light cavalry breakthrough formation is the dense formation, and the dense formation of the Hu cavalry has slowed down the pace of the iron cavalry, and it is not an ordinary difficulty for the light cavalry to make a difference at such a time.
Tai Shi Ci and Wei Yan also looked a little overwhelmed.
No matter how powerful the two of them are, they are still human beings after all, with hundreds of cavalry charging into the Hu cavalry array, maybe they can reach the destination, but the brothers under their command are only afraid that they will be killed and wounded, how can they do it like this in battle?
Hesitating, they turned their attention to the infantry formation, which was now easier to join the iron cavalry.
Xu Huang is trying to do so.
I saw him wielding a big axe with both hands, and the windmill was also like a windmill, leading the team to rush forward, and there was no one under him at all. Hu Qi tried to form a formation many times, rushing hard, trying to block his edge, but often could not hold on to his fingers, and the defense line was torn apart by him.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, Que Ji, who was commanding in the front, hurriedly mobilized his troops, gathered the Hu cavalry in the vanguard, and blocked the Han army infantry with Xu Huang as the spearhead and rapidly advancing in front of them, vowing to die not to let them join the iron cavalry.
On both sides, you have me, I have you, and fierce battles are fought in a narrow area of less than 100 paces, and countless lives are paid for every step forward or backward.
"Onward, onward!" Xu Huang shouted loudly while wielding a big axe and slashing the flesh and blood of the Hu cavalry who pounced. Countless brothers responded with their heads held high, and although their numbers were far inferior, their momentum was indeed like a fierce tiger in the mountains, roaring and rushing to kill, killing the enemy in fear.
The participation of the leader in the war greatly inspired the Xianbei people, but throughout the ancient and modern times, there is probably only the Han Hussar Army at this moment, and it will not be affected by these factors at all. From the beginning of the army to the present, their commanders have always rushed to the forefront of the most dangerous front, leading them to create countless miracles, they are the strongest army of the Han Dynasty, with supreme pride and glory!
How can the momentum be lost to the barbarians?
In an instant, the two hastily organized defense lines were broken away again, and where Xu Huang's feet were stepping was less than fifty steps away from where Lu Qiling's general flag was.
Que Ji was helpless, so he had to bring his own soldiers to meet him. Fortunately, the Hu cavalry on both wings also went crazy, wave after wave, sacrificing their lives to pounce on the ranks of the Han army, although there were heavy infantry on both wings to resist, but the crazy offensive of the Hu cavalry still caused a restrain to the main force of the infantry.
After all, there were many Hu Cai, and the queue of the Han army was too long, and after a stalemate on the whole line, Hu Cai gradually gained the upper hand.
"Big order! Big order! Big order! Hu Qi was already better at fighting with the wind, but when he found that he had the upper hand, his morale soared, and 100,000 people shouted in unison, and the sound seemed to have turned into substance, and the whole wilderness trembled.
"Win?" The head forgot the panic of not long ago, and asked himself with joy and joy.
"Probably right?" Xu You didn't follow, even if he stood on the same front with the vulgar Hu people, he also adhered to the ancient precept of the Han family sages who did not stand under the dangerous wall, and it was Tuoba Liwei who answered, and this gentleman's face at the moment was quite similar to the head.
"Not yet." Murong Feng said in a deep voice: "The main general of the Han army has not moved yet, you must be careful that he personally leads the troops to charge into battle!" Legend has it that this person has the courage of ten thousand people, and his martial arts are above the generals of Qingzhou, so he must be careful. ”
"Humph!" The head of the head laughed cruelly: "Order, let the front be ready, once you see the general flag of the Han general, snipe with iron arrows with all your might, Lao Tzu wants to see if he has three heads and six arms!" "To be continued. (,., or Baidu input),
