The clan elders gave orders, and the cavalry continued to gallop forward. Along the way, they almost stepped on the corpses and horses of their own clan members and rushed through the bloody official road.
"Damn, that's cruel!" Xiao Qingyun witnessed all this with his own eyes. When he saw that the Huns were so cruel to their own people, he couldn't help but take a breath. Then he did not forget to let the soldiers continue to throw their weapons and release weapons.
arrow.
It's just that everything that can be thrown has been thrown out. What really works is that some archers will shoot arrows from time to time to hit some unlucky people, leaving a small number of Huns cavalry on the official road.
The three lines of defense set up by Xiao Qingyun's second brigade soon became a thing of the past for the Huns cavalry. Afterwards, statistics showed that there were only less than 3,000 Huns cavalry left by these three lines of defense. Even if the previous three lines of defense were added,
On the line of defense set up by the first brigade, the Huns cavalry dropped only 5,000 cavalry. At this point, they still had about 15,000 cavalry and rushed straight to the final fifth general defense line, which was the third brigade of the Second Field Army.
The position rushed over.
As the last line of defense, the Second Field Army attaches great importance to it, which can be seen from the fact that division commander Wu Hu and chief of staff Luo Hua are waiting here.
Dust and smoke were billowing in the distance, and experienced veterans all knew that the enemy was approaching. Wu Hu put down the telescope in his hand and sighed, "The Huns cavalry came so fast."
"So what if it's quick? No matter how many people they come, as long as I, Lao Yu, are still alive, I will never let them rush out from here." Third Brigade Commander Yu Guangjue patted his strong chest with a voice like a bell.
Said.
Yu Guangjue was originally a battalion commander of Shanshan Guard, and he was very brave. After being spotted by Wu Hu, he took a lot of effort to get it from Feng Xun. Even though he was the commander of the third brigade,
But in terms of personal combat power, there are not many people in the entire second division who can be his opponent.
Yu Guangjue was brave, and even the soldiers of his third brigade were extremely militant. Over time, they became the fist force of the Second Field Army. This time, they were put at the end to deal with the most critical situation.
Unexpectedly, the idea that was just a precaution at the beginning actually came into use now. Seeing Yu Guangjue beating his chest loudly, Chief of Staff Luo Hua asked with a smile, "Oh,
Brigadier Yu, how are you going to deal with the enemy?"
"How else can we fight? Let's fight hard." Yu Guang answered without thinking.
"A hard fight?" Luo Hua was obviously not satisfied with the result.
"Yes, it's a head-on fight. In fact, the Huns' cavalry looks very powerful, but they have suffered heavy losses in the past two days. They haven't eaten well and haven't rested well. Their strength has long been inferior to what they were when they were strong. The reason why they can fight here is that
It was because the First and Second Brigades were not ready for a tough fight that they were allowed to appear here. Now that they are here, our Third Brigade, as the last line of defense, will never let them escape. We all
The 10,000-strong brigade has no way out, it’s just hard to fight hard.”
Yu Guangjue spoke very calmly, showing no sign of cowardice or mistake because he had to fight hard. This may have something to do with his character, but it also has something to do with his current position.
The Second Field Army has a total of 45,000 commanders and fighters, of which the first and second brigades each have 15,000 people, but only the third brigade has only 10,000 people. That is because there is also a cavalry regiment directly under the command of the division headquarters.
The troop strength is the smallest, and the task is the heaviest. In addition, there are no dangerous areas to defend nearby. Except for the dense forest in the distance, the other places are all plains. Even so, unless they don't want to complete it.
Otherwise, there is only one thing to do - fight!
After these words were spoken, division commander Wu Hu and chief of staff Luo Hua could not raise any objections, because they also knew that there was really no better way than doing this.
"Okay, if we fight, we will fight. This division commander will fight with the enemy together with your three brigades!"
"Hahaha, great. With the division commander leading us, the soldiers are even more energetic." Yu Guangjue laughed, then looked at the 10,000 officers and soldiers in the brigade and said: "Brothers, comrades, the Huns
They went south to kill our people and rob their wealth. Now that they have robbed enough, they want to leave. Can we agree?"
"No, no!" The soldiers below were all mobilized to fight.
"Very good, even if we can't, then we will stay here to block the beasts like the Huns. Needless to say, one, no! In half an hour, our cavalry will come to help us. By then, our third brigade will
Everyone is a hero. I ask everyone, do you want to be a hero? Do you want to go back to your hometown and be proud of us, so that your family can be proud of us?"
"Think, think!"
Ten thousand soldiers, all raising their weapons high, shouted in unison.
"Very good, there are indeed no cowards in our third brigade. That's it, everyone is ready to divide into ten camps based on battalions, and block the official roads respectively. We want to tell these Huns bastards,
If you want to leave here, you can just walk over our corpses. Otherwise, we will leave their lives here to feed the wolves!"
Yu Guangjue's roar spread far away, and the 10,000 officers and soldiers of the Third Brigade began to organize themselves into battalions, with every thousand people forming a camp, one by one in a trapezoidal shape on the official road. As the brigade commander, Yu Guangjue personally stood
Among the first camp, Wu Hu, as the division commander, was at the forefront of the second camp.
Chief of Staff Luo Hua is on the last line of defense. Although his personal force ability is mediocre, he is still ready to fight desperately. As long as he is still alive, he will not let it go even if he is pulling the horse's tail.
The Huns cavalry escaped from in front of them.
The third brigade had just set up their formation, and the Huns cavalry arrived two miles ahead. When they saw from a distance that there were still many Chinese infantry here, many people began to have headaches.
As Yu Guangjue analyzed, when the Xiongnu army arrived here, some people were indeed tired and exhausted. Among the fifteen thousand Xiongnu army, many people lost their horses and changed from cavalry to infantry.
This number is not low, there are nearly five thousand people.
Many people and horses were lost in each interception and attack. The Huns army was really tired. Now that the enemy's blocking troops appeared in front of them, how could they not have headaches and distress?
But no matter what he was thinking, once he got here, there was absolutely no reason to stop. He could only continue to charge forward.
"The cavalry charges, these are just infantry, they can't stop us." After the Qiao Xiong clan chief gave another order, he saw thousands of cavalry rushing out.
Facing the rushing Hun cavalry, Yu Guangjue, who was standing at the forefront, did not see the slightest fear in his eyes. On the contrary, he was laughing with the long sword about three feet in his hand, cursing, "Beasts."
Come and die, my grandpa will take pity on you and send you on your way personally!"
When the Hun cavalry were a hundred steps away, they took out their bows and arrows one by one and started shooting from a long distance. For them, horseback shooting like eating and drinking has already become their life.
a habit in.
Often when facing infantry, they only need to release a burst of bows and arrows to disrupt the opponent's camp, and then take advantage of the chaos to cover up and kill, and then they can be unfavorable.
"Block!" Seeing the opponent immediately releasing arrows, he who had fought many battles with the Beidi people never saw a trace of panic in his peripheral vision. He shouted loudly, and many long sticks stood up in front of the prepared first camp.
The shield blocked the arrows coming from far away.
However, Yu Guangjue himself had no intention of borrowing the shield at all. He just kept waving the long knife in his hand and chopped down the incoming arrows to the ground one by one.
After a burst of long-distance bows and arrows, the distance between the two sides became closer, and the Huns cavalry finally launched their charge. But when they rushed closer, they saw that the Chinese army did not show any signs of panic. What the camp looked like before was still the same now.
At some point, while they were surprised, they also had a bad feeling.
It is said that small things can make a difference. An infantry team that is not afraid of cavalry bows must be extraordinary. I am afraid it is not so good that it can attack and cause chaos.
It's just that the distance was too close, which didn't give the Huns cavalry any more time to think about it, and the two sides collided with each other on the official road.
Bang bang bang... bang bang bang...
One after another, the war horses collided in front of the first battalion and hit the high iron shield.
Under the powerful force, some iron shields flew out, revealing the spears and halberds shining coldly behind the shields. Then the war horses continued to step forward, and were stuck by the spears or halberds. Blood flowed out and they jumped.
Fall to the ground.
There were more war horses that did not hit the iron shield. Under the strong rebound force, the war horses retreated suddenly, and then countless spears or halberds came out, knocking the war horses to the ground.
As soon as the wave of impact came down, dozens of war horses fell to the ground. Dozens of Huns cavalry either fell off their horses or fell to the feet of the first battalion soldiers, causing bursts of spears to stab and pop.
Voices.
After a wave of impact, the general of the first battalion also suffered about a hundred casualties. The injured soldiers retreated automatically, and the bodies of the dead soldiers were moved to the side of the official road. The remaining soldiers of the first battalion continued to attack the brigade commander Yu Guangjue.
Under the leadership of the soldiers, they blocked the charge of the Huns cavalry.
Yu Guang Juesheng was tall and tall. Because of this, he first served as a Tiger Soldier. Later, because of his good performance, he was chosen by Feng Xun to join the Shanshan Guard, and then he came to the Second Field Battalion. Such a person
A man not only knows how to fight on foot and against cavalry, but also knows some of the weaknesses of cavalry. Therefore, the defensive formation drawn up by him is naturally very strong.
Seeing that the first wave of impact did not overwhelm the infantry camp, the Hun cavalry as the vanguard thought of turning around and retreating some distance before charging. But for Yu Guangjue, who knew the habits of the cavalry, how could they let them take it lightly?
He retreated, and then he shouted, "Come together, follow and kill!"
