Chapter 450: The Battle of Tianchi II

Xiongnu, Da Qin.

The two armies were confronting each other, and in the middle was a group of slaves from a weak country who were used as cannon fodder. At this time, no one would have thought that it was this group of humble cannon fodder that would determine the final outcome of the war.

This kind of situation not only happened between the Xiongnu and Luo Jiajun, but also in the southern battlefield, Helianbi invested even more prisoners and slaves. Similarly, the Celestial Masters and Taoist disciples of Celestial Master Dao also invested in slaves.

The group kept striving for more power and decided to launch a riot in front of the formation.

——.

Due to the dusk, the Qin army could not clearly see how many Huns there were. What they saw in their eyes was the dark enemy army approaching step by step.

"Crossbowman, prepare!"

"Pikemen, prepare!"

Cao Xin stared coldly at the groups of "enemies" approaching slowly. As long as he gave the order, tens of thousands of crossbows would be fired, leaving no enemy alive.

As fast as fire, fierce and eager to win, several years have passed, but Cao Xin's temperament has not changed. He is the first to break the enemy's sharpest edge, and then the whole army rises up and kills him until his blood flows like a river. This is

One of the things Cao Xin likes to do the most.

This time, he finally arrived at the battlefield before the battle was about to begin. Without waiting for a break, Cao Xin asked for orders to take over the command of the front of the Qin army.

"General Cao, the general has ordered the crossbow cavalry to retreat and the heavy cavalry to attack!" Just when Cao Xin was about to give the order to kill, the scouts from Luo Jia's Central Army sent the latest news.

Among the Qin army, the cavalry is mainly divided into three branches. One of them is the crossbow cavalry in the traditional sense. These crossbowmen mainly rely on the flat end of the bronze crossbow to shoot the enemy as a means of combat. Its strength lies in medium and long distance shooting.

It is not good at close-range hand-to-hand combat.

The second is the armored heavy cavalry that Li Yuan gradually equipped after occupying Monan and Mobei. This "tank" unit would store the armor and spears when marching. But before the war, they were dressed neatly.

Its main function is to inflict heavy damage on the oncoming enemy when the two armies are in formation and clashing.

The third one is mainly composed of scout light cavalry and loose cavalry. These light cavalry are mainly responsible for transmitting information and investigating the enemy's situation. In real large army operations, their role is not very obvious.

Compared with the Qin army's cavalry, which has many changes and different types of arms, the Xiongnu side is a traditional string-controlled light cavalry. The warriors of each tribe have the ability to shoot immediately. At the same time, if a close combat occurs, they mainly rely on relatively primitive cavalry.

Bronze spears and even bone spears and bone knives came to fight.

With a big gap in technical strength and training level, the Qin army moved the heavy cavalry to the front line with the purpose of defeating the Huns in close combat. The prerequisite for such mobilization is naturally the Qin army.

I learned from Tianshi Dao that the enemy approaching at this time was not the real Huns cavalry, but groups of slaves.

The slaves were nothing more than human shields and did not have the ability to shoot the Qin army from a distance. Therefore, the Qin army's heavy cavalry did not have to worry about being harassed by the Huns' guerrilla wolf pack tactics. All they had to do was to recharge their batteries.

Waiting for the moment when the order for the entire army to attack is issued.

——.

Two hundred steps.

One hundred and fifty steps——.

A tense atmosphere spread among the prisoners.

Finally, the most exciting time for the captives came. The first ones to launch the operation to remove the Xiongnu nails were the Taoist disciples of Tianshi. They swarmed forward. Using stones picked up from the ground and the advantage of squeezing people, they cleared one after another.

The Huns' nails were smashed to death among the crowd.

Riots and shouts suddenly broke out in the dark crowd.

The helpless cries for help of the Huns' nails only lasted for a while before they were declared silent deaths. Compared with the slaves who were several times more numerous than them, the individual bravery of the Huns was like small waves, instantly swept away by the sea.

engulf.

"Quickly spread out on both sides -!" Among the crowd, Celestial Master Taoist disciples were shouting from time to time, trying to command this group of disorderly slaves. The slaves in the front and middle were shouted by the Celestial Masters.

They began to disperse consciously and fled towards places where they could hide in the darkness.

However, the slaves at the back of the team, close to the Huns' formation, did not have such luck. After witnessing the abnormal situation in the slave group, the Huns cavalry behind the slaves also began to come to their senses, and they began to raise their spears high.

He urged his war horse to charge towards the group of slaves.

For a time, there was a loud roar.

The eyes of the slaves who lost their loved ones in an instant turned red. On impulse, the young men among them fought unarmed with the Huns behind them. They just hoped that before they died, they could pull the Huns off their horses and then fight and kill them in a group.

.

"Great Qin, attack!" Cao Xin, who had been waiting for a long time, roared, took the lead, and rushed into the enemy formation. The heavy cavalry following Cao Xin were like dark clouds sweeping across the night, and they attacked the chaotic enemy formation of the Huns.

past.

Riding a strong horse again where the horse's hooves tread.

Suddenly knocking away all the obstacles blocking the way, a thick-bodied Xiongnu Qianchang had just pulled out the bronze spear from the prisoner's chest. Before he could react, he felt a strong wind blowing by his ears.

"Who?" The sharp pain in half of his head made the Xiongnu general furious. The Xiongnu Qianchang, who had few rivals in the tribe, tried to turn his head to see who was attacking him.

"Porphyrin!"

The dull sound covered all his thoughts.

The spears of the Qin army's cavalry were longer than the two men, and they plunged straight into the abdomen of the Huns. Then, they penetrated the back and came out with force. The Xiongnu general who was connected to the spear like a candied haws, felt like the world was spinning.

His chest felt like a knife being stabbed and twisted, making him miserable.

"Uh, Qin Manzi, damn it!" The wide-eyed Xiongnu commander spurted a mouthful of blood. He gathered the last bit of strength in his right hand and threw the bronze spear at the opponent who had knocked him over.

"Crack!" The bronze spear collided with the iron armor. After a crisp and weak sound, the head of the Huns' bronze spear broke and fell to the ground.

On the contrary, the Qin cavalry who was hit just paused for a moment, as if nothing happened, and continued to charge at the enemy with the bloody enemy on their spears. Seeing this scene, the unwilling Xiongnu general could only cry in pain

Closed his eyes.

The heavy riding momentum is like breaking bamboo.

Unobstructed, they picked off the scattered Xiongnu cavalry one by one. In the orderly and disorderly confrontation, the Qin army once again had the last laugh. However, the individual bravery of the Huns was completely lost in the confrontation with collective strength.

played a role.

On Luo Jiajun's side, the Qin Army was making good progress, while at the southern foot of Tianchi, the Western Region Allied Forces led by Li Zhongxiang used another method to harvest and tighten the Huns' front line step by step.

Warriors of the Thirty-Six Kingdoms.

They all come from the desert oasis with long yellow sand. They are much more adaptable to the climate and terrain of Central Asia than the Huns who just arrived.

After many years of tacit battles, the Western Region Allied Forces have become more and more cooperative with each other. More importantly, the organizational discipline of these soldiers has been greatly improved. Under the leadership of the Allied Forces Headquarters headed by Li Zhongxiang,

Under the command, crossbowmen, archers, heavy armor soldiers and powerful barbarians took turns attacking the single and fragile defense line of the Huns.

Guerrilla offensive.

This is the specialty of the Huns.

And defense.

Obviously, these warriors under Helianbi are not good at it. They can neither build barriers like the Central Plains people, nor can they set up phalanx battle formations like the Romans in the West. The so-called defense of the Huns, more

It just relied on a little bit of combined force in numbers. What's more, from the beginning, the Huns didn't think about how to defend.

"attack!"

The generals of the Western Region Allied Forces at all levels raised their swords high and shouted loudly. Thousands of soldiers rushed into the enemy formation with fearless courage and drove the stunned Huns to pieces.

——.

"What? What did you say? The Qin people broke through the second army formation, how is this possible-!" He Lianbi was shocked and inexplicable.

In just an hour, the Xiongnu army's fronts in the south and east were shaken at the same time. How is this possible? In these two directions, he sent 30,000 elite soldiers each. Even if the Qin army could kill them again, they would not be able to defeat them all at once.

Zi defeated the Xiongnu tribe and was defeated.

What's more, the Huns still have tens of thousands of Wusun and Daxia slaves in their hands. Even if these human shields are arranged in a queue and cut down one by one, it will take more than an hour.

"Da Chanyu, yes, the slaves revolted. We were caught off guard. General Zuo's tribe has suffered more than 6,000 casualties. If we don't retreat, we will be completely ruined."

"Inform Shanyu that the Qin army on the right is approaching the Chinese army camp. Let's retreat quickly!"

He Lianbi was dumbfounded by the defeat reports one after another. Not long ago, he was immersed in the joy of winning consecutive battles. He never expected that he would suffer a big loss as soon as he fought against the Qin army.

"Hey, let's go! Order the generals on the left and right not to take a step back until they receive the order to retreat——" He Lianbi's face was ashen and he ordered bitterly.

A strong man cuts off his wrist.

The shouts and killing sounds of the Qin army were getting closer and closer. He Lianbi could not guarantee whether he would encounter enemy resistance again when he retreated to the west. In such an unfavorable situation, He Lianbi decided to be cruel.

Let the subordinates of the left and right generals, who usually don't have a good relationship, block it for a while.

"The Great Chanyu is missing!"

"The Great Chanyu has escaped!"

"Bullshit, Helian Chanyu is just a coward and a sinister villain. We were fooled." After Helianbi and his cronies escaped, the remaining Huns soldiers who were waiting for reinforcements finally discovered that they were in front of them.

They worked hard, but their big danyu escaped early.

"No more fighting, just surrender to the Qin people." When the battle reached midnight, in despair, the Huns, who had lost their will to fight, began to lay down their weapons one after another.
