Chapter 569: : Primary contact
Xie Ai was really stunned, and it was not until the number of the Guards exceeded 30,000 that he recovered from the muddle-headedness.
For the elite who appeared out of thin air, the magical things were just before his eyes. Xie Ai, who consciously understood the highest core secrets of the Han country, felt that at that moment he understood a lot of what he didn't understand.
At the last moment, Xie Ai was also worried about Han's enemies in the world, waiting to realize that after discovering the shocking secrets, it is not a problem at all.
In the final stage, Liu Yan had one enemy and many, and he had never succumbed or been weak in the face of anyone. Isn't it because of his background?
[But...] Xie Ai was patrolling, somewhat confused: [Why did the king deliberately reduce the use of the Imperial Guard? 】
Starting from the second year of Yuanshuo (AD 344), Liu Yan did rarely put the Guards on the battlefield. Unless there was an unsustainable situation on all fronts, the Guards would not be visible.
Xie Ai knows only one. The Imperial Guard is still coming out of those buildings. What he noticed is that the cavalry has not increased after reaching 30,000. The new ones are strong crossbowmen, continuous crossbowmen, and equipment. Mainly heavy cavalry, with a small number of halberds.
The valley could not accommodate all the Han troops, Xie Ai, who tried to calm himself down, summoned the generals, Changshi, and counsellors, and said the plan he had just thought about.
In fact, Xie Ai wasn't the only one who was stunned by the sudden appearance of the Guards. It should be that one of the more than 8,000 people was stunned. It was just because of the difference in status and status that they learned their own information. The higher the level, the more Confused, on the contrary, the soldiers thought that the Janissaries had been waiting in secret around.
In the end, the number of the Janissaries was 55,000, and before the building stopped walking out of the soldiers, Xie Ai had agreed on a combat strategy with his subordinates.
The valley where they are located is about one hundred and eighty miles away from the old site of Langjuxu Mountain? Out of the valley to the east, there is a map of Pingchuan, and there will be mountains around Langjuxu Mountain, but the so-called mountains are actually a kind of uplifted high slopes.
Naturally, there are mountains on the grasslands, but they are quite different from the mountains in the Central Plains. The mountains in the Central Plains are very complex. Relatively speaking, there are also a lot of trees, bushes, stones and so on. There are very few trees in the mountains on the grassland, and it can even be said that the number of stones is very small, and most of them are mountains with steep slopes.
Areas with different altitudes will have their own landforms. Not only are the topographical distinctions, but also the types of plants are hugely different, which is caused by altitude and climate.
Langjuxu Mountain is a high uplift slope, but the area of that **** is really too big, so that it doesn't look like a mountain when it gets closer, but it will show a very obvious gentle slope.
If you have enough sight distance, you will find that the ground is actually sloping when you look at Langju Mountain from far, far away, which is the tendency of the northern horizon to be higher.
People nowadays still don’t have a detailed understanding of the face of the earth. For example, the Western Han Dynasty fought the Xiongnu for more than 100 years, and the Han army encountered symptoms of hypoxia and maladaptation when fighting deep in the grasslands. They would not understand that it was because they went to the plateau. , It is simply summed up as unacceptable. Later, the Tang army faced the upper Tubo. Whether it was in the Western Regions (Tuyuhun) or Shu, the Tang army and the Tubo army were actually good, but once they entered the plateau to fight, the Tang army was easily defeated because of not adapting to the plateau weather.
Because Liu Yan is in the Han State, he may not be professional in geographic knowledge, but he will understand some basic common sense. For example, he will not easily allow non-system forces to enter the grassland on a large scale, and he will not let non-system forces go to the plateau to find them. comfortable.
The plan confirmed that Xie Ai stayed in the valley, and Li Hong led the 7,000 cavalrymen to move towards Langjuxu Mountain.
The number of Husbands in Langjuxu Mountain will not be less than 200,000. There are troops brought by the kings to the Alliance, and more of them are Rouran people. What Han didn't know was that the chief of Donggao Che at the back also sent people to join in the fun.
Li Hong was extremely excited about leading his army to Langjuxu Mountain. He was born in the begging army. Because of his youth, he did not experience the early struggles between the begging army and the Hu people. Shihu joined at that stage, and what he did most was the suppression and suppression.
The beggar army who worked for Shihu has changed from an armed force that resisted the Hu people to the executioners of the Hu people. Li Nong and Shi Le had an extraordinary friendship, and even Shihu could be regarded as a monarch and minister. It is true to do things for Shijie It can be described as doing their best, causing the beggars to be covered with the blood of their compatriots.
Li Nong worked for Shi Jie because of his personal friendship. Although Ran Min's hands were covered with the blood of his compatriots, he was really reluctant in his heart.
If you want to make a serious calculation, in fact, Ran Min and Yang Jian are the same type of people. They did not hesitate when working for the Hu people. They were dormant and waited to restore the dominance of the Han people. The difference was that Yang Jian was successful and Ran Min was successful in history. Fail.
Li Hong belongs to Ran Min's department. Because Ran Min's needs were given to Liu Yan, he was in the role of training Liu Yan in the early days. He was entrusted with the important task of waiting for Ran Min to Jianguo and return to Liu Yan.
If Ran Min is not in Han country and Li Hong still looks embarrassed, waiting for Ran Min to be loyal to Liu Yan, then there is no embarrassment. It can even be said that Li Hong is the first group of people who came from the Qihuo Army to work for Liu Yan. He will enjoy some additional benefits more or less, or he will not become a general in a few years. , Today's status is much higher than some of the bosses in the past.
Li Hong, who is riding a horse, always smiles. He likes this kind of environment, and he is more satisfied that one day he will lead his army to run wildly in the roar of horseshoes, especially if the combat target is still running towards the wolf in the mountain. Away.
The name of Langjuxu Mountain has been changing all the time, the only thing that has not changed is that it has always been extremely sacred to the nomadic tribes on the grassland. More than one prosperous nomads regard Langjuxu Mountain as the core, or the core with a very religious status. Generally, nomads will choose Langjuxu Mountain for major or grand memorial ceremonies.
Heading east out of the valley, when Li Hong's team was approaching Langjuxu Mountain for more than 120 miles, the scouts in the periphery used wolf smoke to make notifications. First there was a warning, followed by a few places where wolf smoke appeared.
[At least 30,000 on the north side, unknown number on the northeast side, and thousands on the southeast side...] As a general, Li Hong must know what it means to recognize wolf smoke. In fact, what wolf smoke means needs to be agreed in advance: [The number is unknown? To the northeast is the direction of the wolf in Xushan! 】
To say that the Han army that the Hu people found lonely and deep, must have the most troops dispatched from Langjuxu Mountain, and it may even be that the Hu people suspended the alliance and the whole army pressed it over.
Xie Ai's battle plan is not complicated. The Hu people certainly didn't know that there were 55,000 more imperial guards on the Han army, and they would think it was those troops. There are less than ten thousand Han troops in the depths of the grassland. The Hu people will not pay much attention to it, and they will even come with an eagerness to annihilate them, giving Xie Ai the opportunity to lure the enemy to the ideal battlefield. .
The Guards walked out of the building. Xie Ai had reason to believe that if he could make fifty thousand, he would have another fifty thousand. He just couldn't guess why he stopped at fifty-five thousand. On the premise that there will be reinforcements from the Janitor Guards, the Janitor Guards are still elite enough, and he knows that this head-to-head battle is worth fighting.
Li Hong shoulders the responsibility of attracting kings and their troops to the preset battlefield. Now there are large Hu people in the surrounding area. All that is left is to consider the previous battle of the battle or go directly to the preset battlefield.
[With the mobility of the troops, you can fight first...] Li Hong took it for granted: [Destroying Hu Lu all the way will definitely irritate Chief Hu, and Chief Hu will lose his mind more easily if he gets angry...]
The seven thousand Han troops headed southeast under the leadership of Li Hong. The marching speed was not too fast, and Huren scouts soon appeared in the surrounding area.
The investigators have their own names because of their different forces. The Han army is called scouts, and Hu people are generally called scouts. In addition, there will be some other titles, such as Rangers or Xizuo. Their responsibilities are to specialize in investigating and to fight while investigating.
The topography of the grassland determines a point. Except for some special valleys or basins, if you are alone, you may be able to hide. If the number is large, when you can see the other side, the other side will definitely be able to see the side. After all, the horizon is flat.
Li Hong, the Han army, marched to the southeast and found the Hu cavalry in the distance. The two sides discovered each other at almost the same time, and then both adjusted their direction of travel.
[About four thousand? 】Li Hong rides on the horse, his body undulates rhythmically with the horse's running, holding a telescope in his hand to observe the enemy: 【Is this a Rouran cavalry? Look really more...]
To be honest, Li Hong didn't know how to evaluate Rouran cavalry. After all, the Han army had never experienced war with Rouran.
If the Rouran tribal alliance is calculated according to the level of civilization, the culture and some creations must lag behind the Han country. In addition, some Han countries such as Murong Yan, Tuoba Daiguo, Zhang Clan Liangguo, etc. have already competed. Better than the Rouran tribal alliance. The current Rouran tribal alliance should be at the stage of the Xianbei tribe group in the Western Han Dynasty, that is, purely wandering and grazing, wearing animal skins, possessing a small amount of iron, and most of the guys in his hands are bronze, even most herders. Only the original wooden gun can be used.
"Change formation!" Li Hong roared: "Fengzhi formation!"
Someone will keep repeating Li Hong's orders, and the seven thousand Han cavalry slowly changing their hearts. To put it bluntly, the shape of the entire army has become an arrow.
Beginning in the pre-Qin stage of the ancient times, formations were created, each with a very strong pertinence, and the front arrow formation is the formation used by cavalry to charge the formation, generally used to sweep the enemy that is difficult to resist. Drill through quickly.
"Woooooooooooooooooo-"
The horn sounded, and the seven thousand Han troops that formed the front arrow formation began to accelerate as they approached the Rouran cavalry for about two miles.
The Rouran cavalry also blew their horns, but it sounded like a horn sound. They didn’t know how to form a formation. They only started accelerating after the horns were blown. When galloping, every cavalry had to "yo-ha— —Yo —” yelled, there was a weapon that would be constantly changing and dancing in his hand.
The length of two miles is about sixty breaths for two cavalry rushing head-on to hit it? When the two sides were approaching each other for about 120 steps, the sound of bowstrings rang from the side of the Han army to the sound of horses' hoofs.
The firing of the Han army cavalry crossbow made crossbow arrows with rotating shafts appear in mid-air. They lost their kinetic energy and fell after a long leap. They faced the Rouran cavalry galloping at high speed. The human body groaned and screamed.
Looking down from a high altitude, those Rouran cavalry who originally galloped "yo he", the front part of the whole movement appeared at an extremely fast speed, and then the triangular front of the Han army burst in, like It was the butter that met the sharp edge, and the Han army cut forward without difficulty, while the Rouran cavalry showed a tendency to spread out to both sides.
Bingqi was a very ordinary knight in the cavalry of the Han army. He was at the front edge of the frontal arrow formation. It is not easy to see how many enemy troops were killed by firing the crossbow in the early stage. Later, he killed one with a lance. After the weapons were converted into sabers, they staggered and swung them seven times and killed four~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Going out and using the speed of the ride, they should have killed two. It seems that they have been attacked several times?
After the overall piercing, there was no enemy in front of Bingqi, so he had the time to observe himself. There were a lot of scratches on the breastplate of his upper body, the armor of his arms also had scratches, and blood was seen on the left thigh of the lower body. Generally speaking, it can only be regarded as only a minor injury to his left thigh.
The cavalry of the Han army and the sudden cavalry have been fully equipped with plate armor. It was a kind of armor with a smooth iron plate. The rest of the branches and joints are still covered with scale armor. After all, the scale armor is flexible. There is no plate armor.
"Woooooo-"
The horn was blown again, and the knight holding the banner was also waving the banner regularly.
"Circuitous, roundabout!"
"Qingqi and Ranger teams chase and kill!"
There were about four thousand Rouran cavalrymen. They only opposed the Han army. More than half of the cavalrymen died on the spot, and the rest began to flee without any hesitation after piercing each other.
In fact, the Rouran people at this moment are dumbfounded. When they rushed to each other, it was not that they did not wave their weapons at the Han army, but the weapon hit the Han army but left a scratch on the smooth metal. On the contrary, it was a kind of scratch. The blunt weapon attack worked.
A blunt weapon is a heavy weapon such as a mace. It is strong enough to sweep the Han army. It can knock down the Han cavalry. When the Hu people fight with the well-armed Central Plains army, they usually use heavy weapons. The lethality is the best.
"Escape, escape!" Since ancient times, Eero saw the Han army disperse in pursuit, and he didn't even think about yelling: "Disperse and escape!"
For the Rouran people, at least for the Rouran people who fought with the Han army, the impression of the Han army on them was really deep enough.
