Before Liu Xin had time to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the grassland, she saw a black cloud sweeping over in the distance. Of course it was not a black cloud, but a large group of cavalry.
There was no obstruction on the grassland. The group of cavalry came very quickly and were already five hundred steps away in the blink of an eye. Liu Xin waved his hand, and the Han cavalry immediately spread out and formed three loose conical formations. Arrows were strung and swords were drawn.
Sheath, as if facing a powerful enemy.
Although according to the news brought back by the envoy, this place already belonged to the territory controlled by Queen Kangju, after all, it was on someone else's land. Liu Xin was obviously much more cautious than usual. The situation between the enemy and ourselves was unclear, so he quickly ordered the formation of a defensive formation.
At this time, the cavalry on the opposite side rushed closer and closer, and the horses galloped rapidly on the grassland. The Han soldiers could already see the outline of the opponent's face clearly, but without Liu Xin's order, all the soldiers held the bows and arrows in their hands tightly.
The swords and sabers did not make a sound, only the war horses occasionally neighed once or twice. The two men and horses were silent and moved, and the atmosphere seemed a bit strange.
Seeing that the team of men and horses was only 300 steps away from the formation set by the Han army, the riders did not slow down, but rushed faster. Some young Han soldiers began to become nervous and looked at Liu Xin, as if urging him
He quickly issued the order.
Liu Xin was unmoved and just looked at the other party coldly.
Just when the two sides were still two hundred steps apart, the cavalry suddenly stopped their momentum and stopped there. To stop the horses in time while running fast requires superb riding skills, and tens of thousands of people
For a person to control his own horse at the same time, it requires not only superb riding skills, but also familiar cooperation and strict training. Needless to say, these people are showing off their military power to the Han army.
Liu Xin didn't look down on this kind of childish performance. The Han cavalry equipped with stirrups could do better than them, and their movements were more uniform, but Liu Xin didn't bother to show it off. What he was most concerned about now was that this
Does the tribe belong to Queen Kangju or to Murza?
The language of Kangju was similar to that of Dawan, Shule, and Shache. Liu Xin had his own interpreter in the army. He was about to send someone to ask, when he suddenly saw a horse rushing out of the opponent's formation.
The rider came to the front of the two armies, pointed the scimitar in his hand at Liu Xin, and said loudly: "People on the other side, listen, this is the land of Kangju. No matter where you come from, please go back quickly.
Otherwise, my King Murza will never forgive you!"
The matter between Liu Xin and Black Tornado was a top secret. Of course Sun Ce didn't know about it, but he knew that the purpose of this trip was to help Queen Kangju deal with the king's brother Murza, and these people on the opposite side were Murza's men.
However, listening to this person's tone, Murza had already controlled the entire country and sat on the throne. Sun Ce couldn't help but frown and said: "Father, could it be that Queen Kangju has been defeated, do we still want to continue fighting with this
The new king fights?"
A trace of cruelty flashed in Liu Xin's eyes, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Yes! Kill all these people, leaving no one behind!"
Sun Ce had never seen Liu Xin so vicious before, so he was startled and said hurriedly: "Father, do you want to arrest a few alive and ask about the situation over there?"
The two of them were here discussing the life and death of others lightly, as if they were just a group of puppets, and they didn't pay attention to them at all. But the knight was already angry and shouted loudly: "Ask me again, do you want to return it?
retreat?"
Liu Xin suddenly laughed loudly and said: "Kill! No one will be left alive. When we enter the city of Beitian, we won't know everything about what happened!"
As soon as these words were said, Liu Xin's attitude was already expressed. No matter what happened in Kangju country, Murza, the king of Kangju, would definitely not be able to continue. Sun Ce thought that he had understood Liu Xin's meaning.
He shouted, drew his gun and rushed out. Little did he know that Liu Xin was now thinking of destroying Kang Ju and destroying the country.
The Kangju knight was showing off his power, but unexpectedly Sun Ce's horse was so fast that he rushed in front of him and stabbed him to death with one shot. As Sun Ce attacked, three conical formations of the Han army launched at the same time.
The sound of bowstrings was endless, and the arrows were shot like locusts. The knights of Kangju were caught off guard and fell off their horses one after another.
They were also warriors who were good at riding and shooting. They kept the distance between each other at two hundred paces in order to guard against the other side's bow and arrow attacks. However, they never expected that the Han army's bows and arrows could shoot such a long distance and were so powerful.
.When these Kangju knights reacted and tried to counterattack with bows and arrows, it was already too late.
Sun Ce took the lead and rushed into Kang Ju's formation. His spear appeared like a ghost and he was invincible. In fact, Sun Ce is also a brave and fierce guy, but because of his special status, he has rarely had the opportunity to charge into the formation in recent years. Even if he occasionally does
Whenever he returns to the battlefield, others will always place him behind him, which has already choked him. This time Liu Xin took him to the Western Regions, and he encountered a big battle just after entering Kangju territory, which was just enough to let him go.
He got addicted and killed a lot.
The Kangju warriors relied on their superb riding skills, but when they encountered the Han cavalry, they realized that the gap between the two sides could not be measured. Their scimitars were also sharp, but when they connected with the Han army's sabers, they often fell into pieces.
In one round, the scimitar broke into two pieces. The terrible thing is that they could only hold the reins with one hand and wave the scimitar with the other hand, but the Han army could take off the reins with both hands, making the movements more freely and making it easier for them to use the strength of the city Baimeilu.
Latest chapter.
When the two armies collided, the arrogant Kangju cavalry collapsed and retreated. The most common tactic used by the nomadic tribes on the grassland when fighting is to ride and shoot, especially when one is fleeing and the other is chasing, shooting at each other.
Although the battle was lively, the casualties were extremely limited. Therefore, these Kangju knights saw that they were no match for the Han army in close combat and did not need to command, so they immediately reined in their horses and left.
Before they could escape far, a cavalry appeared on each side of the left and right wings to outflank them. This was the most common tactic used by the Han cavalry to advance and attack together. When Kang Ju's cavalry first appeared, the Han army was divided into three teams.
, this is a formation that can advance, attack, retreat or defend. When the enemy is too strong, the left and right armies can cover the safe retreat of the Chinese army. When the attack is launched, they will launch an outflank and encirclement. When Sun Ce launched the attack just now,
The two groups of cavalry had already rushed out to both sides, but Kangju's cavalry didn't pay attention at all.
Seeing that they were trapped in a tight siege, Kangju's cavalry suddenly panicked. They were originally smaller in number than the Han army, and the bows and arrows they relied on most were far inferior to those of the Han army. They were no match for the Han army in close combat, and were somewhat timid.
The soldiers had jumped off their horses and knelt down to beg for surrender. Unexpectedly, these Han people were cruel and ruthless. They had clearly given up resistance, but they still chopped off their heads with their sharp sabers without hesitation.
The military regulations prohibiting killing and surrendering and killing prisoners were formulated by Liu Xin, but he also issued the order to leave no survivors alive. The Han soldiers had no choice but to carry out his latest order and kill the Kangju knight.
The trapped beasts were still fighting. When these Kangju knights saw that no matter whether they surrendered or not, the Han people would just chop them down with one sword, they rekindled their fighting spirit and fought with the Han army with strange screams. When people face desperate situations, they can often burst out with far-reaching courage.
The strength was several times higher than usual. This was also the starting point of Liu Xin's prohibition on killing and surrendering, in order to avoid causing terrible casualties to his own side. Now Liu Xin himself destroyed this policy, so the Han army fought a very difficult battle.
There is also a big man in Kang Ju's army, who seems to be the leader of this team. He uses a giant scimitar that is much larger than an ordinary scimitar. It looks very fierce. He slashes left and right, and has killed more than ten Han soldiers.
He was killed by his horse and was regarded as the most powerful general in Kang Ju's army.
Liu Xin was furious after watching the battle, and secretly drew two throwing knives. Suddenly, he saw a horse riding towards him, and when he raised his spear, he saw that the general had already fallen off his horse, and it was Sun Ce.
When General Kang Ju died, the morale of the remaining Kang Ju cavalry was greatly reduced. They fought less fiercely than before, with a look of panic on their faces. However, the Han army became more and more courageous as they fought. The whole battle
It finally turned into a one-sided massacre.
In this battle, all 10,000 Kangju cavalry were wiped out, and the Han army suffered more than 1,500 casualties. Just because this Western Region Army was established not long ago, if it were replaced by cavalry from the Sixth Army or other armies, even if it encountered the enemy
A crazy counterattack would definitely not cause such heavy casualties.
Sun Ce rode up to Liu Xin, raised his hands and said, "Father, I am lucky that I have lived up to my command and have dealt with them all!"
Liu Xin looked at Sun Ce, who was almost red with blood, and asked with concern: "Cer, are you injured?"
Liu Rui is now pregnant, and Sun Ce's lifespan in history is not long. Liu Xin is really worried at this time. He should not be allowed to rush forward. If something happens to him, he will not be able to do anything after he returns.
The law has explained.
Fortunately, Liu Xin's worry was just in vain. Sun Ce stretched out his hand to wipe the blood on his face, grinned and said: "The child is fine, it was all splashed on by them!"
Liu Xin nodded lightly. Back then, he had made a decision that if Sun Ce did not dare to surrender, he would resolutely eradicate the entire Sun family. Seeing how brave Sun Ce was, thinking about it now, this decision was still very wise.
However, all this has become Liu Xin's deeply buried secret, and he will not tell anyone.
The battlefield was quickly cleaned, and the bodies of the fallen comrades were tied up on horses. The weather was still hot, and it was impossible to take them back to the Han Dynasty, but Liu Xin would still take them forward and choose a place at night
Cremate them and take their ashes back.
As for the corpses of the Kangju people, the Han army would not do anything except slap them on. This is a grassland, and soon the strong smell of blood will attract a large number of crows, vultures, wild dogs, and wild wolves.
A few days later, only a pile of bones remained here, indicating to the world that there had been a tragic battle.
