The fierce fighting continued in the city gate cave, and the smell of blood spread. At every moment, two soldiers were constantly falling, especially the Han soldiers. Most of them were civilian soldiers who were temporarily recruited. However, they fought with courage for a time, which could not make up for the lack of combat experience. Their deaths and injuries were the most serious.
"Hey
The county captain was skillful in martial arts. He could see that he wielded a knife with great force, and the legs of a war horse were immediately cut off by him. The horse naturally cried and fell to his knees, overturning the owner on his back.
The Xianbei cavalry was startled and turned over in a hurry. However, the county captain, who was old and ruthless, refused to give him the opportunity. He rushed forward with a lunge and thrust his ring head knife into it.
"Well..."
the Xianbei cavalry was stabbed in the key by a knife, and immediately stopped moving.
Hum!
The string sound fell into the county Wei's ears, and he frowned and immediately subconsciously raised the Xianbei people in front of him.
Whoosh!
The arrow struck in an instant and hit the Xianbei man. The Xianbei man was stabbed by the county magistrate. He was not dead yet. However, he was shot by his own man, and finally he did not move.
"Hum, come on
The county captain roared angrily and threw the body of Xianbei people out and fought with a knife. Blood slipped down the blade and spilled from the gap between his fingers, making him almost unable to grasp the handle. Fortunately, he tied the handle and wrist with a piece of cloth in advance.
With a bloody battle, more and more Han soldiers were killed and wounded. Although the Xianbei people were killed and wounded by the Han Army's counterattack, they were of course insignificant compared with tens of thousands of people.
Seeing that he had not been able to capture the city for such a long time, the trivial slave was furious and said, "if you can't take down the city again, I'll cut him down and confiscate his wife and children as slaves!"
Xianbei people are naturally still in slavery society, so there are many vulgar. For example, after the death of the father, the son can inherit the stepmother to be his wife. After the famous talented woman Cai Wenji was captured by the Xiongnu, she suffered such a tragic fate (Cai Yan gave birth to two sons to Shan Yu, and it was not her own son who married Cai Yan, but the eldest son of Shan Yu). And his wife and children are regarded as part of the property, often someone is punished, his wife and children will be regarded as slaves, the famous Genghis Khan used to be slaves for a period of time.
Hearing the threat of Suo Nu, these Xianbei people were naturally very anxious and intensified their attack. As a result, more and more Han soldiers died and were finally unable to support themselves.
Han Jun County Wei's body was cut two times, hit an arrow, strength with blood and loss.
"Oh, it's over."
Just then --
"woo Hoo Hoo!"
The bleak and unsophisticated sound of the ox horn suddenly came from the south. Zou nudun's face changed greatly, and the county captain was very happy.
"Come, come! Reinforcements are coming
Many Han soldiers and soldiers couldn't help but shed tears. Some of them were dying, some were seriously injured, and some fought to death. The last battle of nearly a thousand Han soldiers was not in vain. Reinforcements came, Qiangyin city was saved, and their wives, children and relatives were saved!
Only in the south of Qiangyin City, a black line emerged, a pole Zhang Zi banner with the wind hunting floating scroll.
"Change horses!" Zhang Liao roared.
Liu Ye has obtained three major horse producing areas in Youzhou, Liangzhou and Bingzhou. Naturally, there are plenty of war horses in the army. Even some soldiers have equipped them with horses to speed up their march. As an old cavalry unit, Bingzhou iron cavalry soldiers are naturally one man and two horses. Just now they use one horse to march in a hurry, which consumes a lot of physical strength. So now they change to another one, just for fighting.
See 5000 Bingzhou iron horse skilled transfer another horse, speed up the speed, urge the horse, toward the opposite direction to kill.
"Kill!"
"Commander, the enemy is coming. What should our army do?"
Zonu couldn't help humming, and said angrily, "the people who attack the city withdraw, prepare to drag the enemy with horse and shoot, and then attack the enemy."
"Yes
At the command of Suo Nu, Xianbei cavalry, who were attacking qianyin City, withdrew one after another and joined together with the Suo Nu tribe. Only then did they damage hundreds of cavalry and left more than 9000 people, twice as many as Zhang liaojun.
"Go
More than 9000 Xianbei cavalry roared north. Naturally, Zhang liaojun rushed up and refused to relax.
"Prepare - shoot!"
Seeing that the distance between the two armies was within fifty paces, zonu immediately called out. The Xianbei cavalry, who had already been ready to draw their bows, turned around and loosened their bowstring.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Thousands of arrows rushed out, when more than 100 Bingzhou cavalry fell from their horses. Fortunately, these people are proficient in riding and avoiding arrows. Otherwise, this wave of arrow rain will lose 2300 people.
"Shoot again!" Zonu called out again. Xianbei cavalry set up their bows and arrows. A shower of arrows shot out again. Bingzhou iron cavalry fell more than 100 people.
This is the tactics of Suo Nu, which first uses riding and shooting to kill the enemy's morale and strength, and then makes a big attack when the enemy is in collapse, which is also known as kite flying tactics. This kind of tactics can only be played by nomadic people, because they grew up on horseback since they were young, and their riding skills, which have been honed for decades, make them have no fear. Among the Han Army, only a few elite cavalry, such as Baima Yicong, understood this tactic.Before the two armies contacted, hundreds of people had been injured on their own side. Zhang Liao could not help getting angry.
"Pro Wei! Come with me and attack the enemy
"Kill!"
Five hundred guards followed Zhang Liao, speeding up their speed and storming out. Originally, the distance between the two armies was no more than 50 steps, but now it is rapidly shortening and decreasing. Seeing Zhang Liao's five hundred Pro bodyguard irons can enter the Xianbei cavalry array.
For a long time, many people have an idea, that is, grassland horses seem to be better than the war horses in the Central Plains. Otherwise, why can the prairie alien race defeat the Central Plains people repeatedly? However, in fact, this is a fallacy. You should know that raising horses is also a science. If you want to fatten up your horses, you can't just let them eat grass. If you don't have enough nutrition, the horses will only lose fat and malnutrition.
If they want to eat enough diet, they will become fat and strong.
Grassland horses eat grass every day and lack of nutrition, so it is difficult to serve as war horses. The reason why nomads have won many times by relying on grassland horses is that the base number of grassland horses is large enough. Once grazing, there are tens of thousands of horses. Under such a large base, good horses will naturally emerge. Second, because nomadic people have two horses for one person, or even three horses for one person, and often change horses. As a result, the physical consumption of war horses will naturally be reduced.
