Thousands of people, stepping on the heavy drum beats, stirred up the yellow dust all over the sky. In the misty smoke, three infantry square formations, and three thousand combat soldiers, with shields like walls and spears like forests, pressing towards Yuan Jun.
The Montenegro coalition forces attacked.
Under the suppression of Yuan Junyao's formation, the morale of the Heishan coalition was discharged. If Yu Yong was not aroused and the attack was launched quickly, the morale would fall again and again. The Heishan coalition was all generals of Lao Yu's battle formation, and there was no reason to be ignorant. So Zhang Yan sent three thousand troops at once.
The three thousand armies were divided into three square formations, each belonging to one side: the left wing was Geng Zhi's Duliao Camp, the right wing was Yishou's Jizhou Army, and the center was the King of Heishan Army. These three armies were all elite, especially Heishan Army King of Heishan Army. He and Sun Qing were both Zhang Yan's left and right hands. Sun Qing served as the cavalry commander and he served as the infantry commander. During the Zhongping period of Emperor Ling, he followed Zhang Yan to fight in all directions. He can be called the elder of the Heishan Army.
The Black Mountain Alliance said it was 50,000 infantry troops, but it was not enough to be put on the battlefield. In ancient times, large army warned, needed huge auxiliary soldiers, servants, entourages and other logistics supplies. These people accounted for at least half of the army. Although they could not be considered combat power, they were also an indispensable part of an army. In ancient times, calculating the number of troops in an army was definitely counted, and it was not enough. They exaggerated five times or ten times out of thin air, as if there were too many people to scare the opponent.
Even Cao Cao, a great hero, did this. In the Battle of Red Cliff, he dared to say 800,000 when he opened his mouth! I was afraid that all the livestock in the military camp would not be enough.
Not to mention the war soldiers and cavalry of the Black Mountain Alliance, if we only talk about infantry, there were only more than 25,000, which also included newly defeated troops, such as Liu Shi, Zuo Xia, Qingniujiao and other fortress soldiers. These soldiers who had just escaped from Chaoge lost all their energy and could not go to the battlefield at all. They were all arranged by Zhang Yan to defend the city.
In the first duel, Zhang Yan certainly would not be arrogant enough to destroy this court food, so he only led 10,000 infantry troops. Three thousand cavalrymen went to fight. Ten thousand infantrymen, and 5,000 auxiliary soldiers were eliminated. In fact, he only led 5,000 combat soldiers. In other words, the real ones that can be fought are these 5,000 combat soldiers and 2,000 cavalry - the same is true for this cavalry. In addition to knights, there are also entourages, and these people have to be counted, but in fact they are just grooms and entourages. Don't count on wars. Fortunately, most of them are Hu cavalry, and most of the Hu cavalry do not have grooms, and these are the best grooms themselves.
However, Zhang Yan took out three thousand soldiers at once. He thought that he would win the battle at the beginning.
At this moment, the Heishan coalition forces, behind the Central Army's formation, Jizhou Mu Hushou stood in the horse under the flag, pointed at the opposite army, and said to Geng Zhi, General Du Liao beside him: "Yuan Shao seems to be loyal and righteous, but in fact he has evil intentions. He is a false official and assistant. He regards the court's laws and regulations in nothing, and cannot be punished to face it."
Geng Zhi nodded and took over the conversation and said, "Our army is powerful, and we will attack the few with the masses. We will not be able to win. You don't have to worry. Yuan Shao is just a reckless man, and it is easy to kill him."
The two of them looked at the generals in the formation together. He was wearing black armor, about thirty years old, with long faces, long eyebrows on his temples, glittering eyes, high bridge of his nose, strong lower palate and hard short moustache, giving people a tough feeling. He sat upright on a yellow horse, with long hands and feet, as if he could point to the ground as soon as his legs were stretched out.
This person is Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army, known as "Flying Yan". He has always been very confident in his cavalry battle. Although Cheng Lian Yao's formation was amazing, he saved himself from the fact that if he took action, he had to allow him to approach ten steps and he would kill this person. However, he was the commander of the Wanjun army, and he was in the victory or defeat of this battle. Such a general in front of the formation was not what a general should do. And under his command several times, no one was Cheng Lian's opponent. In desperation, he had to choose to launch an attack.
Yao Formation lost, but the final Formation cannot be lost! Yuan Shao wants to win the first battle, and so does Zhang Yan!
On this side, Yuan Jun frequently waved flags on the watchtower, and sent troops with various flags on his back to the formation, conveyed military orders to the generals of each army and submitted them to the generals of each army. Then, the generals of each army followed the orders and conveyed them one by one to the Sima, the Marquis of the Army, the Hundred Generals, and the team. From top to bottom, after the military orders were reached, the army began to take action.
The series of command processes of the Mars General Yuan Jun were seen. Although the distance was far away and there were some specific things that could not be seen or seen clearly, with his experience in commanding battles many times, he had almost figured it out even after guessing and thinking. He paid special attention to the fact that the whole process of Yuan Jun from receiving orders to preparing for war took less than a moment. Although it was less than his White Wolf Cavalry, it was already very good for infantry. In this way, Yuan Jun was a well-trained army.
Haha, Yuan’s army is well-trained, and the Black Mountain army is strong and powerful. There is a battle that can be fought.
Ma Han's eyes could not help but extend southward, and a little beyond, above the mound, the white and red as red as fire, were surrounded by people, and the influence of people staggered in height, like a group of wild beasts that chose people to eat, eyeing them not far away.
What role will this person play in this fierce battle?
Zhang Yan sent his right-hand man Wang Dang to command the army to attack, and Yuan Shao also sent his generals to fight against each other, General Chunyu Qiong, commanding three thousand infantry to meet the enemy. At the same time, he ordered Lu Bu's left army and the right army of high-ranking officials to send cavalry to protect the two wings of the infantry.
There were only two people under Yuan Shao who had the title of general, one was Ju Su and the other was Chunyu Qiong. Chunyu Qiong was an old general when he was in the Ling Emperor's dynasty. One of the eight lieutenants of Xiyuan at that time was on par with Yuan Shao. After joining Yuan Shao, he was only under Yuan Shao, and was the leader of all generals in terms of fame and qualifications. However, in terms of ability, he was only considered to be of medium status in Yuan's army. However, when fighting such a stable frontal battle, Chunyu Qiong, the general director of a regular officer, was still very sensible.
The six thousand troops advanced through the drums, with the same number of people, the equipment was close, and even the formation was the same. They were all swords, shields, spears, and archers, and archers. Depending on the situation, they were probably almost the same in the battle. This was a head-on battle without tricks, and the outcome was enough to test which one was stronger.
Six thousand infantrymen lined up into six large formations and advanced towards each other. Chunyu Qiong led hundreds of cavalry behind the formation. Similarly, Wang Dang on the opposite side was also under the protection of more than a hundred cavalry and commanded the flags and drums from afar. Six generals of the six thousand infantry each directly commanded the battle.
When the two armies approached a hundred steps, the command flags in the rear swayed at the same time. There was a long sound of horns. Then Ma Han saw nearly a thousand archers in the back formation of Yuan's army, and they pulled out arrows from the archer pot on their backs, raising them diagonally.
When the front line of the two armies approached fifty steps, the horn sounded again, and generals at all levels issued stern orders.
The next moment, the archers slacked off their strings, and a dense and muffled sound of thunder sounded in front of the two armies. The arrows were like locusts, either hitting or interlacing in the air, carrying strong potential energy, and running towards each other's targets.
At the same moment, the sword and shield soldiers in the front row shouted, speeding up their pace and rushing towards the enemy. Similarly, the Black Mountain Allied Infantry also raised their spears and shields to hedge them.
Puff puff puff puff puff puff puff!
The arrows were like rain, splashing large blood mist. The screams mixed with the charge were both exciting and weak. Many soldiers who were shot at the critical point fell down and died for a while, but were trampled into flesh mud by the chaotic charge. Some soldiers who were injured in their hands and feet tried their best to run away from both sides of the military formation, and the soldiers who were responding behind them dragged them back. The army rushed past, with corpses behind them...
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The deafening and dull collision sounded, and the two front rows of soldiers finally collided heavily. Many shields were cracked, and then swords and guns were released, spears and halberds were used together, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.
In the infantry battles of the Han army, the main focus is on stabbing. Whether it is a gun, a spear or a knife, it is all about stabbing. The so-called stabbing is death and injury. The ring-headed sword is not a thick-backed machete with a wide palm in later generations, but a thin waisted straight knife. If you chop, you often cannot break the armor and shield, but stabbing can be done.
At this time, the two armies squeezed each other into a bunch of people, and they all used shields to hold each other. No matter whether they were stabbed by swords, guns and spears, they could only poke on the shield, making it difficult to hurt the enemy. At this time, you have to use a halberd. The halberd of the Han Dynasty was actually a variant of the halberd, which was very similar to the halberd. It was cheaper to add a horizontal branch to a large number of halberds. Only military generals used halberds were more sophisticated. Most of them were single-sided crescent-shaped, and there were few halberds with double-sided crescents. Only very few generals with extremely strong force would use it, such as Lu Bu, Gan Ning, etc.
At this moment, the two armies collided, squeezed and stabbed each other, and it was the time when the long halberds came into play. But after the long halberds in the formation were squeezed to the sword and shield soldiers, they waved more than a ft. of long halberds high and slashed heavily at the enemy sword and shield soldiers from top to bottom.
Pupp pupp pupp! The sharp horizontal branches pierced through black scarves, and the head and shoulders of the green scarves were stuck in the skull and body, and could not be pulled out, and blood was gulp. Whether it was Yuan's army or the Black Mountain army's halberd soldiers, they all had rich experience. After the halberd branches were broken, they could basically not pull them out. They quickly let go, took another long halberd handed over from behind, held them high again, and slashed them heavily...
Under the weeding attack of the two armies, the sword and shield soldiers fell down, gradually revealing the spear soldiers in the formation. They lost the protection of their shields. Almost every time they stabbed, soldiers would scream and fall down. The battle entered the bloodiest moment.
Arrows kept falling from the sky, causing screams; long halberds were like hoes, bringing out bloody rain; swords and guns were like clusters, destroying lives. Only this dry land received the greatest reward, drinking endless blood...
At the critical moment of the two armies fighting, a dense sound of hooves sounded like drums, and the Hu cavalry on the left and right wings of the Black Mountain Alliance finally moved.
Wuwan left and right slaughtered each, each running out three hundred cavalry, like a pointed cone, directly piercing the cavalry of the Yuan army on the left and right. The purpose is very obvious, defeating the Yuan army's cavalry and defeating the Yuan army's infantry from both wings.
The Hu cavalry arrived as if flying, and there was a rain of arrows outside dozens of steps, and immediately shot dozens of Yuan's cavalry.
The person who commanded the cavalry of Yuan's army was Jiang Qi, who was furious when he saw this and personally led 200 cavalry to assault and fought with the left-wing Wuhuan cavalry.
The right wing slaughtered cavalry is different. They also have another threat - more than 20 cavalry of Lu Bu who looked at the wolf.
Tu's troops were divided into two groups, one hundred cavalry rushed towards the earth slope, surrounded and killed Lu Bu, and another two hundred cavalry rushed directly to the Bingzhou cavalry led by Zhang Liao.
Almost as soon as Tu everyone divided his troops, a tiger roar shook the sky, almost overwhelming the shouts of thousands of people on the battlefield. Then a group of Naruto came into his eyes, like an out-of-control train, rushing towards Tu every hundred cavalry fiercely.
