Chapter 334 Charge Into the Battle
More than 30,000 Xiongnu iron cavalry seemed to be a huge mountain range in front of the Bingzhou army, but they were motionless, not eager to attack, as if waiting for something.
"No wonder I didn't dare to fight here, so I fled all the way north, so I was waiting for us here." Cheng Lian couldn't help snorting when he saw the Xiongnu cavalry.
"Hey, with Marquis Wen here, what are these Xiongnu iron cavalry?" Wei Yue sneered, but he was not afraid at all. He usually followed Lu Bu and charged into battle. He had encountered heavy siege more than once, so naturally he was not afraid .
After Lu Bu saw more than 30,000 Xiongnu cavalry, his face was slightly surprised, but he calmed down soon.
"Hmph, Gao Shun!"
"The last general is here! What is Marquis Wen's order?"
Lu Bu narrowed his eyes, and flashed a cold light: "Order you to lead the camp as the pioneer, and go to battle!"
"Here!"
Gao Shun didn't change his face, rode his horse out of the formation, and shouted in front of the formation of the three armies: "Soldiers trapped in the camp, all come out."
Footsteps sounded, and more than 700 soldiers lined up from the Bingzhou Army and lined up in front of Gao Shun. Each of them is tall and thin, not like ordinary elite soldiers with big arms and round waists, but a kind of lean and very capable.
It is worth mentioning that although there are only 700 soldiers in this trapped camp, everyone is wearing armor and well-equipped. You must know that in the ancient army, it was generally known as an army of 100,000, and 10,000 of them could be regarded as elite soldiers. Most of the soldiers actually wore single clothes and their defense was very low. Armed warrior.
With the protective power of the armor, these soldiers have a very low loss rate after a battle, and they have a strong will to fight and are difficult to destroy. Over time, they will become elite soldiers in a hundred battles.
"Lead into battle."
"Go ahead!"
Gao Shun yelled, and the more than 700 soldiers in the camp shouted together, the momentum of more than 700 people was like a large army.
"Arrange a pointed cone array, turn around."
The Qibai camp turned around, and they were facing the Xiongnu iron cavalry.
This army of only 700 infantry wants to challenge the 30,000 Xiongnu cavalry head-on?
Yu Fuluo and the generals of the Xiongnu stared dumbfoundedly at the 700 soldiers in front of them, a little puzzled, and Lu Bu just watched the 700 infantrymen come up to die. The cavalry can drag the infantry to death just by flying a kite. What did Lu Bu think?
Yu Fuluo sneered: "What kind of general, it seems that Lu Bu is just making a name for himself."
After finishing speaking, Yu Fuluo shouted back: "Liu Bao! You take three thousand string control men, shoot from a distance and attack from a distance. First destroy this pawn, and show Lu Bu some color."
"yes!"
A general of the Xiongnu army flew out on a galloping horse, his hair was tied into pigtails, and his face was quite brave. It was Liu Bao. With a long roar from Liu Bao, three thousand cavalry galloped out of the Xiongnu formation, followed behind Liu Bao, and charged towards the seven hundred trapped camp.
"Take the bow!"
Liu Bao yelled, and when they were three hundred steps away, the three thousand Hun rangers took out their small riding bows from behind. One-handed riding and shooting stunts, and the Central Plains cavalry, except for the elite frontier soldiers, it is difficult for anyone to be able to do it.
"Get ready!" When there were still 200 steps away from the camp, the Xiongnu rangers raised their bows and arrows, ready to shoot. After all, the range of riding bows is not as good as that of step bows. It is best to shoot at 150 or even 100 steps. When the arrow is shot out, that is the most lethal time.
Whoosh whoosh!
kindness?
However, before the Xiongnu Rangers could shoot arrows, the 700 camp on the opposite side launched the offensive first.
When they got closer, they found that the soldiers of the Qibai camp had a crossbow hanging on their legs. When the Huns were approaching 200 steps, the Qibai camp suddenly made trouble and grabbed the crossbow on their legs. After aiming at the Huns who were two hundred steps away, they launched it.
There were three crossbow bolts installed on each crossbow machine, and more than two thousand crossbow bolts shot out from the seven hundred crossbow machines in an instant, so fast and urgent that six or seven hundred Hun Rangers fell to the ground immediately.
Whoosh!
Many war horses were shot by crossbow arrows, and under the pain, they raised their heads and neighed, and immediately threw their masters off the horses, and then ran away.
Liu Bao was taken aback for a moment, and then became angry from embarrassment. The Huns' riding and archery skills have not yet been fully utilized, so the enemy on the opposite side gave them the first opportunity. How is this so great?
"shooting!"
With more than 2,000 riders left to gallop to a distance of 150 paces, Liu Bao couldn't wait to issue an attack order.
The Huns who straddled their horses were immediately full of energy, holding a riding bow in their hands, stretching their bows and setting arrows, and more than 2,000 feathered arrows flew out, covering the 700 camps like an impenetrable net.
Gao Shun waved his knife and shouted: "Raise the shield."
There is a small round leather shield on the arm of the 700 camps. Seeing the enemy shooting, they immediately raised the leather shield on the arm like a conditioned reflex.
Whoosh whoosh!
The Qibai camp was originally fully armed, wearing armor, a helmet on its head, and a small leather shield on its arm. It was like a mobile tank. The arrows of the Huns Rangers either shot on the leather shield. , or shot on the armor, the seven hundred camps suffered almost no loss.
Liu Bao's eyes widened in disbelief. These pawns are so powerful?
Damn it, it seems that I have to sacrifice a magic weapon.
Sa! The scimitar came out of its sheath suddenly, and Liu Bao pointed at the trapped camp, shouting angrily: "All troops attack!"
"Oh hoo!"
The 2,000 Hun rangers were also enraged. A group of small infantry, with a total of no more than 700 people, was so tenacious? As a result, more than 2,000 Xiongnu rangers immediately attacked with all their strength, drew out the scimitars around their waists, and charged forward.
"hold fast."
The 700 camp stopped advancing, and the sharp cone formation that was originally used for assaults instantly evolved into a defensive circular formation. More than 2,000 Xiongnu cavalry crashed into it, but it was as if they had hit a rock, and the 700 trapped camp remained motionless, like an iron bucket.
Liu Bao immediately ordered two thousand Hun rangers to surround and kill around the seven hundred trapped camps, trying to find a gap and break into them, but although the trapped camps had only seven or more people, they changed formations extremely quickly, and the soldiers mobilized Shoulders rubbed against heels, there was not even a single flaw.
The trapped camp was fully armored. Although the Huns surrounded and killed them, they were unable to effectively kill the enemy at all. Instead, they were overthrown by the spearmen in the trapped camp, causing many casualties.
Although Liu Bao was angry, there was nothing he could do. Although there were only 700 soldiers in the camp, it was a hard bone that could not be chewed. Because all the trapped camps are full of armor and strong defense, the Huns' rangers have no way to attack.
