The two heavy cavalry regiments of the Dahua Army, with a total of 10,000 cavalry, have just been assembled. In order to increase their speed, they can move forward with the army. Feng Xun and the others have long developed a very reasonable strategy.
That is, when they are on the road, the weapons used by the heavy cavalry are handed over to other cavalry for safekeeping, which reduces a certain burden on them. When encountering the enemy, they return the weapons and some heavy equipment again.
Give it to them and let them display the strength that heavy cavalry should have.
The other cavalry just launched a charge, and they came from all directions. Only these 10,000 heavy cavalry were wearing equipment and holding weapons. Just when they were doing this, a thousand-man Hun cavalry came head-on.
Team.
Facing this enemy who took the initiative to enter the tiger's mouth, how could the two commanders of the heavy cavalry, Lu Zheng and Fang Sheng, be polite? They pointed their troops forward and charged towards the charging enemy cavalry.
On one side were ten thousand heavy cavalry who were well-equipped and prepared for a long time; on the other side were the Huns' thousands of light cavalry who came in a hurry and had only courage. The outcome was already known before the battle even started.
Sure enough, when the men and horses of both sides met each other in the dark night and collided head-on, the heavy cavalry was like a huge wild boar rushing into the sheepfold, knocking the Hun cavalry away one by one and knocking them down.
Falling to the ground, or swinging the heavy iron chain in their hands, the Hun cavalry fell from their horses one by one like skinny lambs.
This is simply an unequal battle, no matter in terms of equipment, abilities or weapons.
Thousands of Huns cavalry rushed into the ocean like small fishes and quickly disappeared without even a single wave rising.
Just as the heavy cavalry showed their strength and devoured a thousand Hun cavalry, the other more than 20,000 light cavalry also began to show their skills and launched an attack on the Hun cavalry camp from all directions.
Before anyone arrives, the arrow arrives first.
When thousands of arrows were fired and fell into the Huns camp, many Huns soldiers and slave soldiers who had just rushed out of the military tent were hit by arrows and fell to the ground one by one.
Unprepared, facing tens of thousands of Dahua Army cavalry, the Huns were like ants on a hot pot. Apart from running around, few people could truly resist or threaten the safety of the Dahua Army cavalry.
.
Feng Xun and his cavalry used bows and arrows to kill the enemy from a distance. They already knew that there were about 30,000 Huns cavalry and 40,000 to 50,000 slaves in the Huns army. Together, the strength was almost three times their number.
times.
If they are really tough, although they are also confident that they can win, their losses will definitely not be too small. Considering that after the Huns are defeated, they will go to Zhangcheng to support His Majesty, it is destined that they cannot lose too much.
, firing arrows from such a long distance is the best way to kill the enemy.
This method of shooting random arrows is now one of the best ways to deal with the Huns. If nothing else, the current Huns camp is already in chaos, especially after seeing who Fanfan walked out of the tent.
When he was about to be shot to death, the others were so frightened that they hid in their tents and did not dare to come out.
The original shield bearer also stayed in the military tent and did not dare to go out, so he could not control the bow and arrow, and the situation naturally became more and more unfavorable.
Landaotu, the leader of the Hun army's tent, had already dressed and stood up. A group of Hun generals also came to his side. "What are you doing here, instead of commanding our warriors to fight back?"
"Don't panic, elders. The cavalry of the Great Chinese Army is only on the periphery now and cannot kill our inner camp. Moreover, we have made preparations. Shield soldiers, archers, and long weapon soldiers are all ready. We just wait for them to come.
Coming in will give them a good look. At that time, our brave Huns cavalry will look for opportunities to counterattack and defeat the enemy." Huang Jili stood up on behalf of the generals, with a look of confidence and calmness.
As soon as he heard that it was ready, Landaotu breathed a sigh of relief. Then he sat down again and said with a calm look: "That's great. After we defeat the cavalry of the Great Chinese Army, we can take advantage of this opportunity."
Rush towards Pingcheng, then we can return to the Northland and regain our glory. At that time, the army will all have the credit, hahaha."
Landaotu's laughter also aroused the laughter of the generals. Their purpose of fighting was to use the peripheral troops to consume the cavalry strength of the Great Chinese Army first, and wait until the Great Chinese Army was tired and unable to attack, or
Halfway through the attack, it was time for their Huns cavalry to counterattack.
The camp of more than 100,000 people is indeed very large. It is indeed very laborious and time-consuming to fight from the outside to the center of the camp. This gives the Huns army more time to prepare.
But they forgot one thing, that is, the Dahua Army never plays cards according to common sense, and it is the same this time.
After effectively suppressing the Xiongnu army with bows and arrows on the periphery, Feng Xun saw that the first phase was almost completed, so he said to the messenger beside him: "Notify the troops and prepare for the second phase of the battle."
The messengers left quickly, and soon afterwards, each of the more than 30,000 cavalrymen held grenades in their hands, ready to throw them at any time.
Each person only has three rounds, but even so, there are still a hundred thousand. This is already the entire inventory of the Second Firearms Brigade. Even now that the Jicheng Firearms Bureau is working at full capacity and has built an additional large workshop, it still doesn’t last a day.
It can only produce more than a thousand grenades. One hundred thousand is the production for three months.
This time, in order to deal a heavy blow to the Xiongnu army and kill them more, Feng Xun brought out all the grenades for a dazzling fireworks show.
Each cavalryman held three bombs in his hands as if they were treasures. Then according to the previous assignment, he stood in line in batches and made all preparations before dropping the bombs.
The heavy cavalry also came, and they still had time to rest for a while, so they could jump into the battlefield at any time. After seeing everyone getting ready, Feng Xun also took out a grenade from his waist.
The target was a Huns military tent more than thirty steps away from him.
Feng Xun just noticed that when the bows and arrows were fired, many people got into the military tent. They thought they would be safe if they entered the tent, but they didn't know that they would become a target for the Chinese army.
.
Whoosh!
After the fuse was pulled out, the grenade drew a beautiful arc in mid-air and then moved forward quickly. Under the control of Feng Xun's strength, it happened to land on the military camp where the target was located.
On top of the tent, and then paused for about a breath, a loud explosion suddenly sounded.
The instant grenade went off, and a large hole was created on the top of the military tent. Countless cold winds poured in for a while, and then the grenades thrown by others also took the opportunity to fall into it, and inside it
There was a loud noise.
The grenades fell densely like snowflakes, landing on the military tents on the periphery, and the sound of explosions unique to them was heard.
Shrapnel flew away in all directions, and the roaring sound was heard next to the ears, one after another, seemingly without end.
When the grenades first fell, some slave soldiers could still keep their composure. Although they saw that their comrades around them were covered in wounds and blood from the explosion, they still persisted, always imagining that this thing should be thrown away soon.
, almost gone.
But after a while, the grenades still had no intention of stopping falling. When they saw that not even half of the people in the tent were left, the others began to panic. No longer caring about anything else, they started to move towards the outside of the tent.
Ran out.
Although it would be dangerous to speak out, it is better than waiting to die in the tent.
When you rush out, you can still have a fight, and your bicycle turns into a motorcycle.
And one of the soldiers in the tent rushed out, which attracted more and more people to follow suit. When there was the sound of running outside, more and more people in the tent escaped. Among them
Some military tents that have not been hit by grenades.
After all, the power of grenades is good, but it has a fatal flaw, that is, the projection distance is too close. This is because the Shanshan Guards cavalry have a lot of strength and can throw it farther. If it were replaced by ordinary people, the projection distance would be too short.
The distance will only become more limited.
It's just that the slave soldiers don't know this. They only know that if they don't escape, they will probably die in the military tent and never escape. In order to survive, they can only rush out of the military tent and head towards the Chinese army camp.
They fled everywhere, because it was the only place that had not been affected yet, and it was the only place where there were the elites of the Huns. Their presence should be able to block the powerful cavalry of the Chinese Army.
In this way, a torrent of people and bodies was formed. They gathered and ran towards the Chinese army camp from all directions around the military camp.
"Hahaha, very good, let me inform you, complete the third phase of the mission, and the cavalry will attack!" Feng Xun looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help laughing heartily.
First suppress the peripheral troops, then use grenades to show off their power, and then drive these slave soldiers to counterattack the Hun cavalry. This was a tactic that Feng Xun had discussed with the staff before.
Use slave soldiers to create chaos so that the Huns' cavalry cannot take advantage of their cavalry's original advantages, so that the Shanshan Guards who arrive later will be unbeatable.
Of course, doing this is suspected of using slave soldiers. But there is no way. You can't worry too much when fighting a war, especially the life and death of the soldiers below. Otherwise, how can you say that one general will succeed and thousands of bones will wither?
?
Not to mention, they were not using their own army, but slave soldiers who had surrendered to the foreign race and worked for the foreign race, so Feng Xun and the others would have less psychological pressure and burden.
