Sana sneered in the direction of Que Du, and led his men to rush over, regrouping into formation behind the Han army. The two armies were separated at the first touch, and killed each other during the collision. This was also one of the cavalry tactics.
1. However, this kind of tactics mostly appears in duels with a small number of people. For a large-scale duel with thousands of people like this, it would be extremely abnormal to use this kind of tactics, not to mention that Que Du gave him an order to eliminate Zhijun.
command.
Seeing this scene in the distance, Quedu already understood Sana's intention. But Quedu was not nervous. He still had ten thousand cavalry in his hands, which should be more than enough to deal with three thousand Han cavalry. And behind him, Daman
, Tong Yehu's army should arrive soon. These three thousand Han troops are coming to his door, which is just a good opportunity for him to establish his authority and let the soldiers know that although he is young, he can still gallop on the battlefield.
Not only their future, but also the well-deserved leader of the tribe now!
Que Du, who was eager to establish authority among his tribe, had no time to think about it, so he sent his army to cover it up.
When the two armies collided, the Han cavalry did not fight with them as before. They just dug into their ranks like a wedge and divided them into two. This kind of hand-to-hand combat is the most cruel.
, although it was only a short moment, hundreds of knights fell off their horses on both sides. However, the Han army was obviously more skilled and suffered only dozens of casualties, while the Turkic cavalry casualties were ten times that of the Han army. In fact, the Han army's cavalry
The combat effectiveness of the Turkic cavalry did exceed that of the Turkic cavalry, but the gap should not be that big. The only reason is that Daman forced all men over the age of twelve and under sixty to participate in the battle. Although the total number of troops increased, the combat effectiveness dropped greatly.
It is no longer the elite it once was. Especially in such an army, fathers and sons, grandparents and grandchildren are all in the team, and they all want to take care of their relatives. The cooperation between them is also greatly affected, and it even affects the kind of people who are not afraid of death.
Fighting spirit, it’s not surprising that he is at a disadvantage.
In this case, Quedu will certainly not preserve his strength like Sana. He must wipe out the Han cavalry as soon as possible, otherwise the longer the delay, the more unfavorable the situation will be for him. Quedu turned his horse's head and shouted:
"Surround them and kill them!"
When all the Turkic cavalry surrounded the group of Han cavalry, the sound of rapid horse hooves sounded again on their east and west wings. The snow was flying, and the black cavalry team went straight towards them to kill them. The number of these two groups of cavalry was
There were more than ten thousand people, and their momentum was astonishing. Quedu, who had always been so calm as a young man, was also a little panicked. He understood that the three thousand Han cavalry were just bait, and the two groups of newly emerged cavalry were the ones attacking them.
A fatal blow. But at this time, the formation of the Turkic cavalry had been scattered. If they tried to fight against the two groups of Han cavalry, it would be like hitting a stone with an egg.
Que Du was quite powerful, and he made a decisive decision: "Quick! Retreat to Tieguan Valley!"
His purpose was naturally to join Daman and Tong Yehu, and gather the strength of the three armies to fight the Han army. As for Sana, who was determined to preserve his strength, he certainly would not care about it. But he did not know that Tieguan Valley
It has become a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Both Daman and Tong Yehu have died unexpectedly, and their tribes have also been wiped out. Of course, he does not know that the three thousand Han cavalry are not decoys, but are divided into joint attacks.
His sharp sword was the elite among the elite cavalry of the Han army. Under the impact of this Han army cavalry, his cavalry had already been scattered, and even if they wanted to retreat, it was difficult to assemble them together.
The Han cavalry on both wings came very quickly, and before Que Du's men could reorganize their formation, they had already rushed towards them. There was no crossfire with bows and arrows, and there was no time to escape. Everyone could only wave the scimitars in their hands desperately, trying to cut them down and rush towards them.
Only in this way can the opponents save their lives. But the wish is good, but the reality is cruel. The sharp sabers of the Han army easily cut off their scimitars, and the sharp sword light cut them immediately.
their throats.
This was a one-sided massacre. Not only did the Han army have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, but their equipment, training, and coordination were also far behind them. There was no suspense in the battle. After half an hour, there were only two to three hundred people left on the battlefield.
The Turkic cavalry gathered around Quedu, looking at the Han knights who were getting closer and closer with horrified expressions. They were already trapped in a heavy siege, and there was no hope of escape.
In the Han army, a general stepped out from the crowd and pointed his spear at the remaining Turkic cavalry: "Dismount and surrender! Luo doesn't want to cause more killings!"
Today, when the Han army is generally equipped with various types of knives, there are very few people who still use long swords, and Luo Shixin is one of them. He is very confident in his own swordsmanship. In the hand-to-hand encounter just now, there were more than 40 Turks.
The cavalryman died under his arms, and his shirt was dyed red with blood. Now standing in front of the remaining Turkic soldiers, he looked like a murderous god, which was frightening.
There are also dozens of young men among the remnant soldiers who stayed with Que Du. Their fathers and brothers risked their lives to save them. Like Que Du, they are not taller than a wheel. They should not go to the battlefield to fight, but they appear here.
It has broken the rules of the grassland people for thousands of years. There was nothing special in the fierce battle just now. When the battlefield became completely silent, these teenagers felt a little bit afraid. When they heard that the other party allowed them to surrender, some of them began to waver.
.
As for the other Turkic warriors, first of all, they did not understand how the Han army would treat prisoners, and they did not dare to surrender easily to avoid being massacred. Secondly, they were all guards of Quedu and were loyal to Quedu. Without Quedu's orders, they
They did not dare to surrender easily. These people still held their scimitars tightly, staring at the approaching Han army, preparing to make a last stand.
Suddenly, Quedu himself was the first to abandon his scimitar, jumped off his horse, and shouted loudly: "Don't kill us, we surrender!"
No one thought their life was too long. All the remaining Turkic soldiers put down their weapons and became prisoners obediently. Not far away, more than 2,000 cavalrymen from Sana'a chose to surrender before them. The two groups of prisoners were captured
After being escorted to a place, both Quedu and Sana glared at each other. Neither of them were fools. They both knew what the other party was up to in the fierce battle just now. Don't say that the two sides were just cousins and nephews, even uncles.
Nephew, I am definitely going to fall out at this time. If it weren't for the gleaming cold light of the Han army's sabers all around, I'm afraid they would have fought each other with fists and kicks.
Seeing that the overall situation was decided, Luo Shixin lowered the long spear in his hand and sneered: "Let's go! Take them all to Sanmi Mountain!"
…
In the Turkic Royal Court at the foot of Sanmi Mountain, new families have been reorganized. In addition to the 10,000 cavalrymen under Shi Danai, the male heads of these families also have more than 10,000 liberated slaves from various tribes. Transformed slaves
Being a master is Liu Ziqiu's only magic weapon against nomadic tribes. These reborn former slaves particularly cherish the life in front of them, and their loyalty to the Han Dynasty that rescued them is self-evident.
The Turkic king's tent in the middle actually represents a family. This family is the center of the entire Western Turks. The owner here used to be Chuluo Khan Daman, but now it has been replaced by Shi Danai. In addition to Daman's women, all the people there
Ye Hu and the women from Shekui were also sent here. Some older, plain-looking women were demoted as slaves, while younger, beautiful women were fully accepted by Shi Danai. He was originally a Turk, and in
This has been done in the Turkic tribes for many years. In the past, he had to worry about the constraints of military discipline in the Han army. Now that he is the Turkic Khan who was personally named by Liu Ziqiu, there is naturally nothing to be embarrassed about.
Among the three chiefs, Daman has the most women, but Stanai's favorite is a woman named Bisi from Shekui. Because they live in the grasslands with harsh environment, most Turkic women are prone to aging. This one is called Bisi.
The woman in Si is already in her thirties, but she looks like a girl under 20. Her face is smooth and silky. From her appearance alone, you can’t tell that she is a mother of two children. But if you look at Bi Si’s figure
, but extremely plump and hot, with concavities that should be concave and convexities that should be, she is clearly a mature woman. Shi Danai fell in love with this woman at the first sight when he saw Bisi, even if Liu Ziqiu did not call him a Turk.
Khan, I'm afraid he will also ask this woman to come over.
Bisi understood her situation very well. After being sent to Stanai's tent, she flattered him in every possible way and used all means to serve Stanai happily. From then on, she became more and more favored by Stanai.
There was a trend of establishing her as the queen of the Western Turks. But Bisi surrendered to the enemy, but there was no pain in her heart. She just endured the humiliation and waited anxiously for news of the army. Although the entire tribe had been taken away by the Han army, she
But he didn't believe that Daman's 200,000-strong army would be defeated so quickly.
Although he was hugging each other in the Turkic king's tent and enjoying an emperor-like life, Shi Danai did not dare to forget the tasks assigned to him by Liu Ziqiu. While comforting the tribes near the royal court, he kept inquiring about people from the south.
During this period, many leaders of small tribes came to seek refuge with him, sending cattle, sheep, and horses to express their loyalty to him. The palace gradually became lively, and Bisi's heart sank a little bit.
Go down.
On this grassland, the tribes of Tanli and Bodin were the only ones whose strength was second only to Daman, Shekui and Tongyehu. At first, it was precisely because the strength of these two tribes gradually grew that Daman sent
They went to lead the battle, and also planned to use the hands of the Han army to weaken their strength. Suddenly one day, Tanli and Boding, under the protection of the Han army, took hundreds of cronies, passed through the territory of Xue Yantuo's tribe, and appeared in the royal palace.
In the court, he kowtowed to Stanay, which immediately caused a sensation.
Everyone knows that Stanley and Burdine were the vanguards of the Southern Expedition Army. Now that they both appear here and are loyal to Stanet, does it mean that the Southern Expedition Army has been completely destroyed? Everyone is waiting for it
Looking for the answer, Bisi became even more anxious.
