The bloody battle of top military souls caused the soldiers of both sides to fall off their horses continuously. It seemed that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was killing harder and faster, but the situation of the entire army gradually turned towards the Huns. Although the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was brave, it was also
It was difficult to break out of the elite cavalry army led by the Xiongnu guards.
The two top elites were gritting their teeth and holding on, just waiting for the moment when the other side couldn't bear the terrible loss and naturally collapsed, and struck a fatal blow.
When Hua Xiong's Xiliang cavalry was led astray, Chen Xi and Zhou Yu knew something was wrong. However, thanks to the appearance of the golden eagle before, the two of them were ready to fight. Otherwise, in this situation, ordinary generals would definitely
Hands and feet are cold.
"Li Yan, compress the defense range, suppress it with the rain of arrows from Cheng Pu." Zhou Yu sighed softly when Hua Xiong penetrated deeply into Ding Ling's army, and then gave orders to the soldiers on both wings.
"I'm coming too." Although Lu Meng was young, he had excellent battlefield intuition. When he saw Hua Xiong rushing into the enemy's main line, he immediately rushed out from the Chinese army and said to Chen Xi and Zhou Yu.
"Just stand here." Zhou Yu pulled Lu Meng, "What's more important for you now is to study."
Lu Meng couldn't help being stunned, "I already have spiritual talent. Most people in the world are not as good as me. Why not let me practice it? Practice is more effective than standing aside and studying."
"Tch." Chen Xi curled his lips and was too lazy to talk to Lu Meng, and Zhou Yu explained, "In terms of spiritual talent, you are indeed better than most people in the world, but your opponents have never been these mediocre ordinary people.
, your opponent is at our level, and how big a gap do you think there is between you and me?"
Lu Meng couldn't help but frown. He was not an idiot. Although he didn't like studying, his talent was there. If nothing else, he could still see the strength and weakness. The gap between him and Zhou Yu was not even a tiny bit.
"Stay here obediently." Chen Xi turned to Lu Meng and said, "The next battle is very dangerous. If something happens, it might be difficult for us to escape."
The Xiongnu imperial guards led nearly ten thousand Xiongnu elite cavalry to fight against the Xiliang cavalry. Thanks to Hua Xiong's rich experience, he immediately reduced the area under attack after realizing that the situation was not good.
Although the number of kills has plummeted, the casualties have also been much smaller. The death-resistant characteristics of the Army Soul Corps have kept the Xiliang Iron Cavalry a threat to the Xiongnu elite, and the battle between the two sides has been tense.
On the other side, Kunwan, after confirming that the army of Xiliang Iron Cavalry had been held back, immediately led his troops to attack the Han army at Chen Xi's place. At this time, the surrounding miscellaneous men had dispersed to form a huge encirclement.
They did not attack, but followed the entire Han army from a distance.
It was obvious that the Xiongnu wanted to wipe out the Han army in one fell swoop. Whether they could achieve this or not depended on Kun Wan's ability.
"Tell me, does the Righteous King of the Xiongnu who is charging towards us now have legion talent?" Zhou Yu said immediately when he saw the large encirclement of Zahu opening up a passage, and the Northern Xiongnu, led by Kun Wan, rushed over with great momentum.
A bad joke.
"You don't believe me if I don't?" Chen Xi said angrily.
Completely different from Zahu's charge, the Northern Xiongnu's rhythm was faster, and they thrust into the front of the Han army almost instantly. Cheng Pu and Li Yan both drew their bows and nocked arrows to shoot at the Northern Xiongnu out of conditioned reflex.
In an instant, arrows burst out, and thousands of arrows were shot towards the Zahu in front. However, at the moment when the Han army's arrows burst out, the Northern Xiongnu's elite cavalry separated directly with Kunwan as the left and right, and turned into two giants.
The arc swept towards the two wings, and countless arrows directly pierced the ground into a dense jungle.
Afterwards, the Northern Xiongnu, led by Kun Wan, formed a large circle on the left and right wings in a snake shape. The Han army was on alert, but Kun Wan did not attack. It was not until the two large arcs on the left and right merged that the two sides suddenly cut through each other.
, the speed also rose sharply, and then the Han army was caught off guard and launched an attack.
Fortunately, Zhou Yu was also cautious and kept doing what he did. In addition to being equipped with swords for close combat, all archers were almost instinctive about bow and arrow shooting.
It is precisely because of this that he was able to shoot the arrows in his hand under the unprepared attack of the Northern Huns. In an instant, many Xiongnu elites fell off their horses. However, after all, without the cooperation of Danyang elites and Karasuma archers, the arrows rained sparsely.
Although it caused a lot of damage, it could not stop the charge of the Northern Huns.
Seeing that the Northern Huns were facing the rain of arrows and did not give the rear archers a chance, a cold light flashed in Zhou Yu's eyes. The sound of the piano resounded, and the legion's talent turned into dark red. The archers who were originally on the front line to resist the Northern Huns dropped their bows and arrows.
, holding up his sword and facing the Northern Huns' elite cavalry, as if he wanted to fight the Northern Huns' elite cavalry here for life or death.
The elite cavalry of the Northern Huns rolled towards the front like thunder. The cavalry had never been afraid of the infantry. With cruel smiles on their faces, they held up their spears and slanted towards these Jiangdong archers who had no armor and only a sword.
Stab away.
However, what happened next completely overturned everyone's understanding of Jiangdong's archers. The Jiangdong archers holding long swords rolled on the spot the moment the Northern Huns' elite cavalry stabbed them. Holding the swords in both hands, they swept left and right.
Cut it towards the horse's leg.
All the horses that suffered this blow had their front hooves broken. The Xiongnu elites on the horses fell forward the moment the horses lost their front hooves. They couldn't control their body shape and were instantly killed by Jiang Dong who was holding a long sword from behind.
The archer stabbed him to death.
At the moment when the leg of the Hun cavalry in front was broken and the soldiers were thrown away by the tripped horse, the Hun cavalry behind them, who had no time to react, still rushed up and were jammed with the fallen Hun cavalry in the front.
Almost instantly, the Xiongnu elite cavalry in front of the Han army encountered a fatal attack, and the charge of the entire army was immediately contained. Li Yan on the flank led the Danyang elites who were in the ultimate state to face the enemy at the moment the Xiongnu soldiers were forced to stop.
The Huns, who were stunned by the wave of attacks, launched a counter-charge.
The Danyang elites who were in the ultimate state were not inferior to the Xiongnu elite cavalry in terms of assault and breaking formations, but they were not inferior to the opponent in other aspects. They even far surpassed the Xiongnu elite cavalry in terms of organizational power. Therefore, they immediately seized the opportunity to rush forward when the opponent was in chaos.
Go up.
Originally, Jiangdong's archers fearlessly rolled under the horses' hooves and cut off the horse's legs with all their strength, causing chaos in the entire formation. In addition, Danyang elites who took advantage of the situation suddenly rushed over and seized the chaotic situation of the Huns' elite cavalry.
beat.
With smooth maneuvers, the Danyang elites successfully captured the Xiongnu elite cavalry, leaving the Huns' front army in a state of chaos. After losing speed, they could only rely on long spears and engage in an inappropriate hand-to-hand melee battle with the well-equipped Danyang elites.
.
"So cruel." Chen Xi was silent for a while and scolded in a low voice. When Zhou Yu occasionally trained his soldiers to huddle up and roll in circles on the ground, Chen Xi had suspected that Zhou Yu might use this method to defeat the Huns cavalry.
Although Chen Xi did not directly ask Zhou Yu about the situation in the Liaodong battle, he knew from the sidelines that Zhou Yu had suffered a big loss, and a person like Zhou Yu was a typical person who would never trip twice in a pit.
So Chen Xi has been observing Zhou Yu, and sure enough, after Zhou Yu and Chen Xi went north, Zhou Yu would occasionally let a group of people roll on the ground holding swords, and while rolling, they waved their swords.
It's not that Chen Xi has never thought about using this method to defeat the cavalry. You must know that Yue Fei even defeated the Iron Buddha Tu in this way. It can be said that this is a very correct way for infantry to fight cavalry, but just thinking about this method
Chen Xi gave up because of the cost.
On the one hand, Chen Xi did not want to use this method from the beginning. When he first thought of this method, it was based on the fact that their cavalry was insufficient and their combat effectiveness was not strong, so they were prepared just in case. However, later they had more cavalry, and they did not
You need to fight this way.
After all, the soldiers who can do this kind of thing under the orders of the generals, not to mention other things, at least in terms of will, are definitely not joking. They are almost all real dead soldiers. Since they can be called dead soldiers, it means that they cannot be dead soldiers.
Regular arms.
What's more, a soldier with such a determined will will definitely be a first-class elite as long as he trains well, and he will definitely be a solid supporter of his own power. Since there is no point in wasting it like this, excellent talents are very important.
So Chen Xi naturally gave up this method, but this does not mean that Chen Xi does not know this method. Of course, Chen Xi has not disclosed this method. As for being careful, there is no need. The white horse does not need close combat. The elite talent of the iron cavalry is a blessing.
The blessings given to cavalry are not only given to soldiers, so cutting off the horse's legs is not as valuable as cutting off people...
After all, compared with human muscles and war horse muscles that have been strengthened in the same proportion, humans must be easier to chop, so the tactic of chopping horses' hooves is simply nonsense for the Xiliang cavalry.
If the horses of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry were not blessed with elite talents, they would have been shot to death by random arrows. Do you really think it is a joke to shoot a man first and a horse?
However, Chen Xi didn't pay much attention when Zhou Yu was training. After all, this technique is a very simple one. As long as you are not afraid of death and dare to die together, in fact, even if you don't use this method, it is not that easy for the cavalry to beat you.
As long as any military unit is completely unafraid of death, even if the opponent is a military soul army, the soldiers will not be unable to kill them if they use their lives. But the problem is that the whole army is not afraid of death. Isn't that highly unified will the military soul? So this
It's just a nonsense proposition.
Chen Xi just watched the excitement, but the excitement now really appeared in front of Chen Xi. After a short training, Zhou Yu's soldiers really managed to resist the enemy's offensive with their lives.
This is fundamentally against common sense, but it happened in front of Chen Xi.
[So cruel, I finally understand the reason why Zhou Yu kept training those soldiers even though he knew that short-term training would not achieve the effect at all. This is how the so-called determination to provoke the soldiers to fight to the death in a short period of time was used.] Chen Xi glanced at him with a solemn expression.
One glance at Zhou Yu, and he already understood how Zhou Yu did it. He could do it, but he didn't want to do it!
The legion talents created by Chen Xi and Zhou Yu essentially amplified certain emotions originally possessed by the soldiers, and at most they used different methods.
It is true that a short period of training only allowed Jiangdong archers to memorize this simple technique, but it would be a joke if they really used it, but what Zhou Yu wanted was to memorize it.
So detailed explanation, relying on many years of experience, most soldiers know and confirm that this is indeed the most correct way for infantry to defeat cavalry, but just because the method is correct does not mean that it must be used. People cherish their lives and can do it themselves.
It's better not to die than not to die.
This is also an important reason why many times as long as one person stands up to be a hero, everyone has a way to survive, but no one stands up to be a hero. After all, they all expect others to stand up and save themselves, so in the end everyone dies.
Already.
And this kind of combat method is the same. As long as more than a hundred people rush forward at the risk of death, it can directly stop the cavalry in front. Of course, these people will definitely die in this way. Even if they are not trampled to death by the war horses, the high-charging war horses
The impact force from the fall also killed him.
Zhou Yu's approach was to constantly instill this knowledge and skills to make the soldiers recognize this technique. This is very simple. After all, it is the correct technique and the soldiers all know it, but in the war, almost no one will use it.
As for the reason for this success, it is actually that Zhou Yu elevated certain emotions of the soldiers in a short period of time. Just like sometimes, it is clear that the IQ is normal and the brain is clear, but under certain emotions, people will do certain things.
Some irrational things.
Zhou Yu used this method to arouse this emotion with his legion's talent. After a long period of training and propaganda, the soldiers had the most correct way to fight cavalry in their minds, and they had the most correct way to fight cavalry in their hands.
With a sword, the effect of slashing left or right is the same.
Since the horse's legs can be cut off no matter how hard it is cut, it is not surprising that the soldiers who were controlled by Zhou Yu's emotions at this time did such a thing.
After thinking about this, Chen Xi understood why when Zhou Yu and he attacked the northern Xiongnu camp and encountered the Uluolan clan that they might not be able to defeat, why did Chen Xi and him arouse the will to fight to the death when he said to use it.
From this, Chen Xi understood why Zhou Yu said that although arousing such unconventional emotions can only last a few breaths or even a dozen breaths, it is enough, because for this fighting method, those few breaths are enough to lay the foundation.
situation.
As for the soldiers who rushed out, they died naturally. A one-ton object collided with an ordinary infantryman at a very high speed. That infantryman should have died long ago.
"What, what do you want to say?" Zhou Yu saw Chen Xi staring at him and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Compared with a hundred soldiers or an army of thousands, which one do you think is more important?"
"Well, if it weren't for this method of forcing soldiers to die, I would probably agree more." Chen Xi said after being silent for a while.
"Isn't the so-called war just for our beliefs, our consciousness, and our interests, to drive them to sacrifice their lives in the way we think is right?" Zhou Yu sneered.
Chen Xi was startled, never expecting that Zhou Yu would answer like this, but after thinking about it for a while, he said with a smile, "Such a correct answer, I am speechless." (To be continued.) 8
