The sound of crying for father and mother could be heard in the crowd. Qiao Xiong was tied up like the others and stood in the valley. When he saw thousands of arrows coming, he closed his eyes in pain.
Before, he had a fluke mentality. He knew that although these 18,000 tribesmen were captured, they had no real intention to surrender to the Chinese army. It was just because they were too hungry, too thirsty, and too tired. Once they were allowed to fill up,
After a full stomach, I rested. I only need to find an opportunity to resist, and then I will still have a chance to fight out.
But now, he knew that everything was over. This Vantage didn't really accept his surrender, just like he didn't really surrender. Everyone was just acting, and they all wanted to better preserve their own strength.
But now, with everyone fighting for their own good, Vantage moved a little faster, so fast that they didn't even have a chance to resist.
Eighteen thousand Huns, tired and hungry, had no strength at all. In addition, each of them was tied together as if they were wearing candied haws, and they couldn't even make a move to resist.
Facing the sharp arrows coming from all directions, the only option is to keep getting hit and die.
Even if some people are clever and pretend to be dead in the crowd, they still can't escape when Jingguan cuts off their heads. The only difference is that they die earlier and later.
Facts have also proved that any foreign race that wants to become the emperor of Dahua will only reap the consequences in the end and will only regret its previous actions.
Tang Ao was still discussing with a group of generals about ambush the incoming enemy. Although they could vaguely hear the heart-wrenching shouts coming from the valley in the distance in their military tents, everyone
Don't give it any more thought. There are nearly 40,000 people from the Second Field Brigade guarding there. This will allow the prisoners to survive and escape, and Wu Hu, the division commander, will no longer have to work.
"Okay, let's go according to the plan. This time the Huns only came with 20,000 cavalry. To be honest, it was less than we expected. And after they are eliminated, the Huns will react even if they are just pigs.
, so we don’t have to worry about any movement in the next battle, we will use as much force as we can, and we must annihilate all 20,000 people, and try not to let anyone go."
Tang Ao stood up, glanced at the generals standing in front of the sand table, and spoke loudly.
"No." All the generals present at the meeting stood straight, and after expressing their stance, they began to make arrangements individually.
Bu He, who was forty miles away from the foot of Huashan Mountain, did not know that a large net had been opened in front of him, waiting for him to pass by. He was still imagining how to grab more benefits after arriving in Weicheng. This time, Qiao
The clan members took the lead and got benefits, so as the second army that appeared here, he had to get some benefits from them.
In order to achieve this goal, the 20,000 Bu family's cavalry did not stop at all after leaving the Luohe River, and rushed forward with all their strength. As a result, the distance of forty miles was covered by them more than two hours before dark.
He finally stepped into the ambush of the Great Chinese Army.
There are tall trees on both sides of this official road. In summer, the lush leaves block people's sight, making it difficult to see very far. And places like this are often the easiest places to hide ambushes. In the past, a large number of cavalry would
If you want to pass by here, you will definitely send someone to do a good reconnaissance first.
But now, everyone is in a hurry. Besides, the Qiao family has already entered Weicheng. Even if Huashan is the rear, how can there be an ambush here?
Careless divination, they did not send Ye BuZhao out, or Ye BuZhao's speed was not much faster than the main army, which allowed them to fall into the trap head-on.
Boom~Boom boom...
The sudden sound of explosion caught the advancing 20,000 Huns army by surprise.
This is not the role of artillery. There are dense forests all around. Even if the artillery attacks, it lacks a certain accuracy. There are many Chinese cavalry ambushed in the forest. The firearms brigade will not do such a risky approach.
But there were still countless explosions, which was the function of the landmines newly developed by the Ordnance Bureau. After Tang Ao proposed the idea, the master craftsmen began to do various experiments, and the first batch of landmines came into being.
Although there are still various problems, such as requiring more power to ignite when triggered, etc. But when an army of 20,000 cavalry passed by, it was so powerful that it was enough to trigger the mines buried on the official road.
Then there was this scene before us, there were exploding mines everywhere, and pieces of iron flew towards the nearby Huns cavalry.
They were completely unprepared, and they had no idea that there was such a weapon in the world. In one moment, 20,000 Huns cavalry were beaten without checking. More and more cavalry were hit by the attack and fell off their horses one by one.
Fall down.
After bursts of gunpowder smoke dispersed, the mine warfare alone killed and injured at least nearly two thousand Huns cavalry. This was also the result of his walking too fast and the team being too dense.
Just after the explosion, when the ears of many Huns cavalry were still buzzing, deafening shouts of killing came from all directions on the official road. Behind them, directly in front, and in the dense forests on the left and right sides
, tens of thousands of black-armored cavalry rushed out.
The 1st, 4th, and 6th Brigade of Shanshan Guards plus a cavalry regiment of the Second Field Army appeared on the outskirts of the ambush circle like tigers emerging from their cages, and then fired a burst of bow fire, completely disrupting the formation of the Huns' cavalry, and then
One battalion after another rushed forward, just like waves lapping against the embankment, killing the Hun cavalry on the outside in waves.
Bu He was protected by a group of clan soldiers. Seeing what was happening in front of him, his eyes widened and his mouth opened involuntarily. He even couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pinched an exposed arm, feeling pain.
Later, I realized that this was not a dream.
"What's going on? Where did so many Great Chinese Army cavalry appear?" He murmured to himself. At this time, Bu He still didn't want to admit what was happening before him, this reality.
"General, let's prepare to break out quickly, otherwise, we may not have this opportunity in a while." The deputy general beside him warned, but looking at his face, it was obvious that he was also very frightened.
"Yes, retreat, retreat, and fight your way out. No matter what, tell the elders and your majesty what happened here." Bu He, who had regained consciousness, was awakened by a word, and then this order came down.
It was conveyed that the Huns cavalry no longer went forward, but turned their heads and attacked backwards.
Guarding the rear of the Huns' cavalry were two heavy cavalry regiments and a light cavalry regiment from the Shanshan Guard Tiger Brigade. Seeing that the enemy was moving toward the rear as analyzed by the staff headquarters, the brigade commander Zhou Jinwen exclaimed.
The voice of sneer. "Very good, that's great. I order the first and second regiments to charge. The third light cavalry regiment is nailed here like a nail by my brigade commander. No enemy can be let go under any circumstances."
"
While the Huns cavalry was still retreating with all their strength, they ran into two heavy cavalry regiments. Even if the panic-stricken Huns cavalry faced the heavy cavalry of the Shanshan Guards, they would not be their opponents, let alone
We are already in such a panic that we can't even organize an effective group charge?
The final result was to watch these heavy cavalry rush into their own camp, and one after another the Huns cavalry fell to the ground dead.
Bu Hechong was in the middle. He clearly noticed that the number of cavalry in front of him was decreasing sharply. After an hour, there were no cavalry in front of him, and the soldiers around him were dead, with less than five people left. At this time,
, another squad of ten light cavalry rushed in front of them.
It turned out that the heavy cavalry was so powerful that the third light cavalry regiment turned into a decoration. Seeing that the credit was being taken away, the regiment leader Kuang Cheng left two battalions of two thousand cavalry to guard the defense line. He personally
He led three thousand cavalry and charged forward.
"No! Don't kill so-and-so! So-and-so is the core disciple of the Bu family, and so-and-so is Bu..." Seeing that he no longer had any support, Bu He became frightened, and changed from his usual aloof demeanor to begging for mercy.
It's just that the battlefield was too chaotic, and all kinds of voices were heard everywhere. His voice was not noticed at all, so what greeted him was not the preferential treatment of the prisoners, but two sharp bright silver guns, one on the left and one on the left.
The right one stabbed over.
"Quickly stop them." Bu He was so frightened that he suddenly leaned forward on his horse, and then shouted at the soldiers beside him.
It is a pity that his five soldiers have already taken care of themselves and are being surrounded and killed by the Shanshan Guard Qingqi. Without any reinforcements, Bu He dodged the spear tip handed to him from the right.
But he couldn't dodge the gun point stretched out from the left, and it pierced his body with one shot.
An indescribable pain ran through his whole body. Bu He opened his mouth wide and wanted to say something else, or wanted to identify himself again, but he couldn't say anything, and his figure froze on the horse.
After that, he fell to his horse with a thud. Like other Huns cavalry, he lost his life and closed his eyes forever.
With Bu He also dead, this battle is coming to an end.
In less than two hours, the 20,000 Huns cavalry killed about 10,000 people on the spot. As for the other 10,000 people, they all became prisoners. Of course, their fate was already determined and they would be sent to the rear.
The Guiyi army that had just arrived on the battlefield was used as a living target.
Riding on a snow jade white dragon, Tang Ao was watching all this not far away. When he saw that the overall situation was settled, he pointed to an open space two miles away and said: "Take these nearly 40,000 people."
The heads of the Huns cavalry are placed here to create a big view of the capital. All the mines brought from the rear are also laid around. We are preparing a big gift for the Huns."
