Chapter Forty-Nine: The Battle of Xianbei [Part 2]
() A hail of arrows from the Xiliang Army took away the lives of hundreds of Xianbei cavalry. Looking back at the losses of the Xiliang Army, Que Ji couldn't help but frown slightly. The Xianbei cavalry's arrows could not penetrate the opponent's armor at all, but could only provoke
With the blossoming sparks, only a few unlucky cavalry were shot and knocked off their horses.
Only then did Murong Feng begin to pay attention to the equipment of the Xiliang Army. They were all tall and tall horses, holding scimitars and wearing strong armor. Even the vital parts of the horses underneath were protected by armor. How could they win against such cavalry?
The weapons of the Xianbei cavalry struck the Xiliang army, causing sparks, while the Xiliang army brought blood flowers. As soon as they met, they were clearly superior.
However, within half an hour, there were only a hundred Xianbei cavalry left on the battlefield, while the Xiliang army still numbered 600.
Guo Si showed great power and killed Que Ji off his horse with a single blow of his sword. The Xiliang army let out a roar that shook the sky.
Murong Feng's complexion turned slightly pale. Que Ji was a Western master of Xianbei with a high position, and now he died in battle outside Yanmen Pass, killed by the cavalry. This was so ridiculous to the Xianbei people who had always been proud of their unparalleled cavalry.
.
Que Ji had a high prestige in the Xianbei army, but now he died suddenly in battle. The blow to the army can be imagined. Those cavalry were all elites in the east, but they only caused the death of 400 Xiliang troops. In this way
The casualties made Murong Feng feel shocked. The Han army had eight thousand cavalry. A rough calculation showed that his own cavalry of 10,000 was not as good as the Han army.
The leader was also surprised when he looked at the two cavalry groups that were instantly distinguished in the field. When did the Han cavalry become so powerful? No wonder the elite wolf troops are still resentful in the grassland. Que Ji's death is unavoidable in their hearts.
A little sad, but thinking that the east would become a land without one, flashes of light flashed in his eyes, and he winked at the captain behind him.
After seeing Guo Si leading the cavalry to a great victory, Jia Xu ordered: "Come forward with the crossbows!"
Five hundred ballistae were lined up in front of the formation. Each ballistae was slowly pushed forward by three infantrymen, followed closely by the infantrymen. If you look closely, you will find that these infantrymen are extraordinary.
Wrapped in armor, even his face was covered by armor. Only his eyes and nostrils were exposed to the air. He was holding a gleaming spear and a ring-headed sword hanging from his waist. Lu Yi, who was next to Jia Xu, saw such a soldier.
I couldn't help but take a breath of air. Although there were only a thousand people, I can imagine what kind of bloody storm these soldiers would cause after breaking into the local camp. It is no exaggeration to say that no one can defeat the enemy.
Murong Feng had been fighting with the Han people for many years, so he naturally understood that the Han army wanted to cover up the attack with a large army. As long as this victory was achieved, the defeats in the previous two games were not worth mentioning.
"Let me come!" After Que Ju finished speaking, he patted his horse and walked towards the army. He ordered three thousand cavalry and prepared to charge and kill. There were more than 10,000 cavalry in the Xianbei army.
Murong Feng wanted to stop him, but when he saw the look of determination on Que Ju's face, he nodded slightly, and intuitively told Murong Feng that this battle would not be easy to win. Now the situation in Xianbei has been corrupted, the Wolf Army has been wiped out, and the royal court of Danhanshan has fallen.
One thing is fatal to the current Xianbei army, but this battle is unavoidable. Being chased and beaten by the Han army will only increase the fear of the Han people on the grassland. Que Ji just died in the battle,
Que Ju once again led the cavalry to the battlefield. Has the glorious Xianbei really fallen?
"This may be the last battle between Xianbei and the Han in the past ten years!" Murong Feng murmured in a voice that only he could hear. After this battle, Xianbei will definitely be unable to attack the Han border, and Que Ji will die in the battle.
The ownerless territory in the east will definitely cause a bloody storm within Xianbei.
The tribes on the grassland suffered heavy losses and returned without success. It was a big problem to survive this winter. As for being completely defeated by the Han people, Murong Feng had never thought about it in his heart. In the siege battle, Xianbei was not as good as the Han people, but
In field battles, Xianbei soldiers are invincible. Without the protection of the city walls, the Han people will just become lambs to be slaughtered. Even if the opponent's soldiers are completely wrapped in armor, how can they stop the impact of the cavalry.
Three thousand cavalry, led by Que Ju, charged towards the Han army's position. The crossbows on the outside were worthless in the eyes of the Xianbei people. No matter what tricks the Han people played, as long as the cavalry attacked the infantry camp, the Han army would face the consequences
It was a one-sided massacre, and these ballistae would only bring some trouble to the Xianbei cavalry, who were highly skilled in riding.
The sky was a little gloomy and it seemed like it was going to rain.
Approaching the Xiliang army's position, the weapons of the Xianbei cavalry were replaced by bows and arrows, preparing to deal a heavy blow to the unprotected infantry in front of them.
"Kill!" Jia Xu's body on the horse stagnated slightly and he ordered loudly.
Five hundred crossbow vehicles released three thousand crossbow arrows almost instantly. The crossbow arrows fired at the Xianbei cavalry with a sound of breaking through the air. No one dared to ignore the power of these crossbow arrows.
Seen from a distance, the charging Xianbei army fell like wheat, with most of it falling instantly.
The cavalryman looked at the fallen Paoze in front of him in horror, and his hands could not help but tremble slightly. The Xianbei people, who had always prided themselves on being warriors, actually had some intention of retreating.
Murong Feng watched in disbelief as the three thousand cavalry led by Que Ju turned into more than a thousand people in an instant. What kind of weapons were in front of the Xiliang army? They could actually fire weapons like short spears. Murong Feng saw three cavalry with his own eyes.
He was killed by the same short spear. The power of these short spears was so powerful that the armor of our own cavalry could not resist it.
"Bed crossbow?" Murong Feng suddenly remembered this kind of weapon of the Han people in his mind, but the bed crossbow could only fire one. Why could these weapons in front of him fire six without losing any power.
The Xianbei cavalry was in chaos. Que Ju tried his best to scream, but it still had little effect. The instant death of his companions made the Xianbei cavalry lose their fighting spirit and scattered in a hurry.
Suddenly, a sharp shout came from the young general Ma Chao, leaping on his horse and shooting at Queju.
Que Ju's mind was shaken, and he roused himself to face the enemy. Although Ma Chao was a young man, he had already entered the palace with martial arts, and his marksmanship was superb. After counting, he shot Que Ju off his horse, turned over and dismounted, and cut off Que Ju's head.
, hanging on his war horse, Que Ju, the general who had conquered Xianbei, died outside Yanmen Pass, among a young general.
Ma Teng, who had been waiting for a long time, led a thousand cavalry into the battlefield. In just half an hour, he killed all the chaotic Xianbei cavalry. Apart from the strong smell of blood, there were no Xianbei cavalry on the battlefield.
There were neighing horses and corpses everywhere.
Ma Chao's delicate face was filled with excitement. He looked at Murong Feng's central army, his eyes filled with fighting spirit, "Father, why don't we attack the Xianbei central army!"
"No, the Xianbei army is brave and good at fighting. We only have 2,000 people. Although we can attack, we will not cause enough damage. On the contrary, it will affect the military advisor's plan. As a general, you cannot only see the immediate interests, but must take care of the overall situation.
!" Ma Teng took the opportunity to teach him a lesson.
Ma Chao had a look of disappointment on his face, "I know."
After taking a look at Que Ju's head, Ma Teng showed a rare smile on his face and praised: "Not bad!"
Murong Feng's face was very ugly. The three thousand Xianbei cavalry were wiped out in the blink of an eye. The blow to their morale was extremely huge, especially when Queju, who was famous among the Xianbei, died in battle.
"Kill!" Jia Xu ordered.
The rumble of war drums sounded in the Xiliang army, and the infantry marched in neat steps towards the Xianbei army. In the lead were a thousand cavalry. I saw these cavalry were wearing strong armor, and they were all hiding in the armor.
, his face is covered with armor, and even the war horse underneath him is also covered in armor, making people feel chilled without fighting.
A light rain fell in the sky. Jia Xu ignored the rain on his face and resolutely ordered: "Kill!"
A thousand cavalry galloped towards the Xianbei army, and the whole land seemed to be trembling slightly.
Murong Feng hurriedly sent troops forward to meet the enemy. A thousand heavy cavalry charged into the Xianbei army with overwhelming force. The Xianbei people's bows and arrows did not hinder them, and the swords and guns could only bring sparks. The Xianbei soldiers who blocked them were killed and fell off their horses.
The target of a thousand cavalrymen is very clear. Beigong Boyu's face shows excitement. He is the center of the Xianbei army. He has been loyal to the Xiliang army for so long. This battle can be said to be the most enjoyable. The enemy is killed like a torrent.
The scimitar was like constantly harvesting the enemy's life. He secretly praised "Good sword!" The whole person became more excited. Guo Bang killed Que Ji, and even the young general Ma Chao killed Que Ju. He led a thousand fierce
The cavalry cannot fall behind.
Behind the cavalry are the infantry of the Xiliang Army, also wearing armor, like steel fortresses, holding long spears and wearing a ring-headed sword at their waist.
The heavy cavalry easily tore a large gap into the Xianbei army. The infantry rushed into the Xianbei army, like wolves burrowing into a flock of sheep. The Xianbei front army was suddenly in chaos.
Murong Feng's face was extremely gloomy, and he glanced at the front of the battlefield, "The entire army retreats!"
Just when the Xianbei army was about to retreat, Zhou Yi led five thousand cavalry to fight out. The Xianbei army was caught off guard. The Xiongnu cavalrymen all held their breath in their chests. They could not defeat the Han army. Now that they had good equipment, they naturally wanted to
To show off one's strength.
The Xianbei army was in chaos, trampling on each other and causing numerous casualties. In a hurry, Murong Feng left ten thousand people behind, and the army slowly withdrew towards the camp.
The power of the heavy cavalry and heavy infantry frightened Murong Feng. He knew that his attack on Yanmen Pass could no longer be successful and he had to retreat.
The rumble of war drums sounded in the Xiliang army, and all the soldiers started to move. Almost no Xianbei soldiers survived.
A light rain fell in the sky, as if it was going to wash away the blood on this land.
In this battle, Xianbei's army numbered 60,000, and more than 20,000 were lost. The western master Queju died in the battle, and the eastern master Queji died in the battle. Morale dropped to the lowest point. If Murong Feng hadn't been so prestigious in Xianbei, there would have been deserters long ago.
.
After the Xiliang army cleaned up the battlefield, leaving the corpses of the Xianbei soldiers behind, they retreated unhurriedly to the pass.
After listening to the scout's report, Murong Feng ordered his soldiers to bring back the bodies of the soldiers who died in the battle.
