Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 409

The generals and soldiers of the Han army were ecstatic.

The [-] Hun cavalry, including King Xiutu himself, had achieved such a rich result that it was unimaginable. Thinking of this, every soldier's blood boiled with enthusiasm, and even his eyeballs were red, screaming, wanting to see everything Cut two knives.

The entire Han army fell into an extremely excited mood. Not only did Gongsun Rongnu and others beat drums one after another to call for battle, Li Guang also urged Liang Xiao to move the formation as soon as possible so that the cavalry could attack.

Liang Xiao was also very disturbed, but he was not excited, but nervous.

The trapped beast is still fighting.This is the elite cavalry of the Xiutu tribe, not an ordinary Hun.Once they launch a ruthless fight against the Han army, even if the Han army has an advantage in infantry, it will be a miserable victory to win the final victory.If there is a loophole and King Xiutu escapes, the loss will be heavy.

For Li Guang, if there are too many casualties, he may not be able to seal the Marquis.There are very strict regulations for military merit and feudal marquis, not only to ensure that the beheading exceeds a certain number, but also to ensure that the casualties are not too large.Otherwise, no matter how many beheadings there are, it is not considered military merit.

As far as the overall situation is concerned, if the casualties are too large, they will have no spare energy to rush to Henan, and the emperor's strategic goal will not be realized, and the mood will definitely not be good. Not only will Li Guang's wish to become a marquis become more elusive, but his status in the emperor's mind will also be affected.

Liang Xiao weighed things up quickly, and strictly ordered Gongsun Rongnu and the other three school lieutenants to strictly guard the position and not to act rashly, and then rushed to the front of the cavalry formation in person.

Li Guangduan sat on the back of the war horse, his face flushed abnormally.Seeing Liang Xiao, he yelled in dissatisfaction: "What the hell are you doing? You're not commanding the front of the battle. What are you doing here? After defeating the Huns' attack, I can fight back and cut off King Xiutu's dog's head."

"General, don't worry." Liang Xiao jumped off his horse, walked to Li Guang's side, and stretched out his hand to grab the collar of Li Guang's mount.

"How can you not be in a hurry?" Li Guang glared at Liang Xiao, and pointed at the knights behind him who were eager to try. "Ask them, which one is not in a hurry?"

Jin Ji waved his saber and laughed loudly: "Isn't it, Liang Junhou, we are all waiting for the order to attack, so we will kill more Huns."

Liang Xiao ignored him, leaned closer to Li Guang, and said in a low voice: "General, before the big meal, there is always an appetizer. King Xiutu has been blocked here, can he escape? Or, are you Do you want to warm up first?"

Li Guang was puzzled: "Hot... body?"

Liang Xiao turned his head to look at Gaolan Mountain in the north, and raised his chin. "General, do you think King Xiutu will just kill him like this?"

Before Li Guang could speak, Jin Ji slapped his thigh and yelled, "That's right, the Huns' baggage is still behind, just go and grab it."

Li Guang suddenly realized.King Xiutu pursued all the way here, and his supply troops were still behind.It stands to reason that they should have arrived in the past half a day, but they never showed up. There is only one possibility: they felt that they were not strong enough and ran away.

Twenty thousand cavalrymen eat horse chews, which is not a small number.If this sum of luggage can be taken over, it will also be a windfall for the Han army who is about to go out to fight, and it can greatly reduce the pressure on logistics.

"Then... who is better to send?" Li Guang was a little hesitant. Although it was tempting to rob the Huns' baggage train, how could they compare with King Xiutu?Only by capturing King Xiutu can he hold the Marquis firmly in his hands.

Seeing Li Guang's expression, Liang Xiao knew he had come to the right place.As the chief general, Li Guang was restless like a young man, which is not a good thing.He is already full of enthusiasm, and it is impossible for him to have the patience to entangle with the Huns. Let him stay here, and he is likely to attack at all costs.

"Such an important task, besides the general, who else can complete it?" Liang Xiao said with a smile: "I strongly recommend the general to attack in person."

"Me?" Li Guang narrowed his eyes, raised half of his eyebrows, and said with a half-smile, "Boy, I'm the main general, how can I leave the battlefield lightly?"

Liang Xiao quickly waved his hand, signaling Li Guang not to think too much. "General, the Huns still have more than 1 cavalry. Can these [-] infantry kill King Xiutu? General, you think highly of me. General, both sides are evenly matched. Bravery depends on who can last longer. Without enough luggage, we can't carry it for a few days."

Li Guang suddenly understood Liang Xiao's intentions, and couldn't help but blushed with embarrassment.He turned the horse's head and said loudly: "Well, I'll leave this place to you. I'll come as I go. You can watch King Xiutu, if you let him run away, I won't spare you."

"Don't worry, general, people are in the position, King Xiutu can't escape."

Li Guang laughed out loud and galloped away.The sound of war drums sounded, and the six thousand fine riders followed Li Guang and left the battlefield, galloping along the river valley in the direction of Gaolan Mountain.Liang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the position, and ordered again, ordering all the infantry to strengthen the position and prepare to stand firm.

Li Guang was gone, Liang Xiao was the supreme commander here, Gongsun Rongnu and the others did not dare to neglect, they immediately acted, and locked all the carts together according to the previous training.In order to fix the cart, stones were moved from the hillsides and valleys on both sides to support the wheels.

Seeing the cavalry of the Han army disappearing into the valley, but the infantry were single-mindedly strengthening their positions without any intention of attacking, King Xiutu was even more disturbed.He was in a hurry to chase, and all the luggage team fell behind, and they never caught up.With only the dry food they carry with them, they can only last for two or three days at most.Once the food is exhausted, the morale of the army will inevitably be shaken.

At this moment, he is not afraid to fight the Han army.If the Han army takes the initiative to attack, he still has a chance.However, the Han army was guarding the formation. If he wanted to leave, he could only use the Huns' short-hand to attack the Han army's leader, and the casualties would inevitably be heavy.

King Xiutu was very anxious. While adjusting his formation and preparing to fight again, he sent people to check the situation on the south side.Half an hour later, the messenger came back.The situation on the southern side was even more unfavorable. The Han general Li Xi led [-] infantry and blocked the entrance of the valley tightly, making it impossible to get through.If the Huns wanted to leave, they had to fly out like eagles in the sky with wings.

King Xiutu was in despair.He gave up all his illusions, concentrated his forces, and stormed Liang Xiao's position.

Liang Xiao commanded the Han army to block the attack tenaciously, refusing to budge an inch.

Fighting in formation was originally the strong point of the Han army. Liang Xiao and Li Xi trained these infantry for more than half a month. The Huns complained endlessly and suffered heavy casualties.Even if some Huns were lucky enough to rush through the arrow formation and come to the front of the chariot formation, it was not the opponents of the Han soldiers holding halberds and swords and shields who were cut down in front of the formation one after another.

The morale of the Han army was like a rainbow, and they repelled the attacks of the Huns time and time again, but the losses were very well controlled.Liang Xiao ordered the three school lieutenants to go into battle in turn, retreating to rest, drinking and eating every time the enemy's attack was repelled.Those with serious injuries were concentrated in the back of the battle, the wounds were bandaged, treated in time, and casualties were minimized as much as possible.

Just when Liang Xiao commanded his infantry to stop the Huns, Li Guang discovered the Huns' luggage team.

Just as Liang Xiao estimated, the Xiongnu general who led the supply team knew that King Xiutu was blocked in the valley by the Han army, and immediately knew that something was wrong.He wasn't worried about King Xiutu's safety.In his opinion, King Xiutu had [-] fine cavalry, and it was expected to break through the Han army's position, the difference only lies in the casualties.But the supply team can't do it. Without the protection of the main force, they simply don't have enough self-protection ability.

Once these supplies fall into the hands of the Han people, King Xiutu will definitely kill him.

So, without saying a word, he turned around and ran, crossed Gaolan Mountain, and withdrew to King Xiutu's pasture in the north of the river, waiting for news from King Xiutu.

Just when he thought he was safe, Li Guang led six thousand cavalry to kill Dahe.He knew that King Xiutu's main force had been blocked in the valley, and no one could be his opponent at the moment, so he drove straight into the Huns' hinterland without any scruples, and soon found traces of the Huns' luggage.

The Huns couldn't escape, so they had to bite the bullet and fight.

As soon as the two sides fought, the Huns fell into an unexpected predicament.

The Huns were brave and fierce, and made a living by looting trophies, and whoever snatched them would own them, so the strong and strong were willing to serve as the main force, and no one was willing to guard the luggage.Although the Huns protecting the luggage had five or six thousand cavalry, their combat effectiveness was mediocre, and they could only ensure that the luggage would not be attacked by the enemy. Once they encountered a strong enemy, they had to rely on the main force to rescue them.

Now, the main force of King Xiutu was blocked in the mountains by the Han army. They had no reinforcements to count on, and could only rely on their own strength to deal with the Han army.But in the face of these carefully selected Han army knights, they are no opponents at all.

Still a hundred steps away, before the Huns drew their bows, the crossbow cavalry shot hundreds of extremely powerful arrows, shooting and killing nearly a hundred Huns rushing towards them.The Huns were caught off guard and fell off their horses one after another, and the routine mutual shooting also came to naught.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the assault cavalry wearing heavy armor and holding spears and halberds roared up and rushed to the front. The sharp halberd blades and spearheads pierced the Huns' leather armor, and harvested the Huns like wheat. human life.Under their cover, the light cavalry with superb archery skills drew their strong bows and shot wantonly, shooting off the Huns one after another.

The Han army cooperated with each other and tore through the Huns' position like a bamboo, leaving blood all the way.

Li Guang's horse galloped like a thunderbolt, and a sharp arrow flew away from the string. The Huns were shot down one after another, and there was no enemy.

In just two charges, the Huns suffered heavy losses, nearly a thousand fell, and the formation was riddled with holes and in disarray.Seeing the ferociousness of the Han army, the Huns did not dare to fight any more, dropped their baggage, turned around and ran away like birds and beasts.

Li Guang immediately ordered the pursuit.The sound of war drums sounded, the assault cavalry dispersed, the light cavalry rushed out, and the crossbow cavalry also drew their swords, and then concealed the killing, chasing death and chasing north, killing wantonly.
