Chapter 375 Charge
Above the vast wilderness, six thousand Hun cavalry were waiting for the arrival of the Han army.
This was Yu Fuluo's last power. He had brought out all the soldiers who could fight, prepared horses for them, and told them that if they were defeated in this battle, they would all be killed by the Han people, and their women and children would be stolen by the Han people as slaves and torture by the Han men.
This has already forced the Hun soldiers to a dead end. At this moment, they lined up in an orderly line, with a look of anger and despair on their weathered young faces. They held their rough big hands tightly, thinking that they could fight to the death with the upcoming enemy troops. Even if they died in battle, they would be better than being a prisoner of the enemy, watching them bully their wives and children.
Yu Fuluo stood on a horse on the hillside, with his younger brother Huchuquan on the left, and the Right King Yubei on the right, all riding war horses, looking at his troops with a serious expression.
From a distance, six thousand warriors led war horses and formed a huge formation, with strict formations. Although they were hasty, they were all war formations that had been looting for many years and killed countless Han people. They had a bleak and killing aura that was emitted in the army.
Yu Fuluo looked at it for a long time, turned his head and asked Hu Chuquan, "How far is the Han army from here?"
Hu Chuquan hesitated for a moment and replied: "According to the news sent back by the detective, it is almost less than ten miles away, and it should be here soon."
Yu Fuluo nodded and said in a deep voice: "When they come, don't give them time to establish a village. You must make a concerted effort to rush over and disperse the enemy's ranks, drive them back, and use the defeated troops to disperse the enemy's rear team. At that time, the enemy's defeat will inevitably disperse! Only then can we win!"
Qubei sneered: "What the Shanyu said! Look at our soldiers, united and united. As the saying goes, the soldiers will win. Those Han troops are tired from afar. How powerful are they? No matter how powerful Liu Sha is, he can't defeat our six thousand cavalry. He will definitely defeat the Han army in one fell swoop and kill Liu Sha, so that no one in the world dares to underestimate our Hun warriors!"
When Yu Fuluo thought of killing Liu Sha, he could ask for credit and reward from the Xindu court. The glorious benefits were so good, he couldn't help but be moved. However, he also understood in his heart that if Liu Sha was so easy to kill, it would not be his turn. He immediately warned: "Don't underestimate the enemy! Liu Sha is used to fighting and must have a good governance of the army. If our army cannot defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, he will fall into a hard battle. The enemy has 40,000 or 50,000, which is several times more than our army. Once it cannot be decided quickly, it will be troublesome!"
Hu Chuquan comforted him: "Don't worry, brother. Although the enemy's number is large, most of them are infantry. How can we compare to our cavalry? Once we charge, how can those infantry stop the power of our cavalry? As long as we disperse their ranks, we can defeat the morale of the enemy. How can they resist our army's charge?"
Yu Fuluo nodded without saying a word, his heart was a little relaxed, looking at his extremely sad and angry subordinates from afar, and secretly prayed that he could only hope that this battle would really defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
The scorching sun shone on him in the sky. While waiting anxiously, Yu Fuluo finally heard the sound of the army moving from afar, which made him feel refreshed.
In the distance, the war drums rumbled. You can see a huge army slowly moving towards this side from afar, looking like tens of thousands of people. The flags in the army were waving, and a big flag was the first to write a line of big words:
"King Liu of Wuwei of Han!"
Yu Fuluo looked up from a distance and saw a wide cross-section. Most of the Han army came from the infantry. The first row looked like there were hundreds of people, and they were approaching him with long spears. Behind, there were a large number of enemy troops, who were slowly approaching.
Yu Fuluo knew that if the enemy was approaching and took the opportunity to dig a trench and set up a fence, his cavalry would be stopped from charging. Therefore, before the enemy approached, he pointed the horse whip, shouted loudly, and ordered: "Don't give the enemy a chance to breathe, charge!"
Hu Chuquan and Qubei had already arrived in the army. Wen Ling shouted: "Get on the horse and charge!"
Six thousand cavalry responded in unison, rolled over the horse, ran forward with their horse's belly.
On the vast land, thousands of cavalrymen rode wildly, and their horses were trampling heavily on the ground, shaking the earth constantly.
The Hun cavalry in leather armor waved their swords on their horses, and roared like a dying beast, shaking the world. With an unyielding momentum, they rushed towards the Han army far ahead in a crazily.
The Han army was blowing a horn to stop. The military officers from all over the place ordered a stop at the same time. Tens of thousands of Han soldiers stopped immediately and quickly lined up in a wide and neat cross-section, facing the enemy soldiers rushing forward.
Feng Sha rode on the wild star, stood proudly in the center of the military formation, holding a telescope in his hand, looking at the charging enemy troops from afar, smiled coldly, and waved his hand to signal the messenger beside him.
At the sound of the trumpet, the spearmen located at the forefront of the array quickly squatted down, buried the tail end of the spear in their hands on the ground, and set up a bracket to form rows of horse-resisting rifles specially used to deal with cavalry.
Immediately afterwards, they squatted down, supported the ground with one knee, reached out to pass a powerful crossbow from behind, and aimed at the enemy troops in front. After a command, they shot arrows at the charge of the enemy troops.
Behind them, square formations were revealed. Each soldier was wearing armor and holding spears of different lengths, and placed the spear rod on the shoulders of the comrades in front. In addition to holding spears, the first row of soldiers also had a long giant shield with a sharp lower end and inserted it hard to the ground, forming a row of solid long walls.
On their shoulders, they carried several spears from their companions behind them, and faced the enemy soldiers in front of them, with guns as they were like forests.
On the far hill, Yu Fuluo Wang was surprised to see such arrangements. He didn't know what formation the Han people were like. He could have so many spears facing his charge cavalry. If he wanted to hit him, it would inevitably cause great damage to the cavalry under his command in the first row.
But now that things have come to this point, Yu Fuluo would never dare to order the cavalry to be recalled, otherwise his morale would decline and face tens of thousands of enemy soldiers would be dead without a place to die. Looking at the terrifying forest of spear tips, he could only pray secretly that his cavalry could destroy the enemy's resistance in one fell swoop, destroy the enemy's army, break through the enemy's center, and let go of the enemy's large forces.
A squeaking sound rang out in the Han army, and one or two catapults were pushed out in the gaps between the counter formations.
The soldiers used their strength to push the catapult carts as quickly as possible, placed huge wooden boxes on top of the catapult, and pulled the rope hard at the loud command of Jiang Zuo, and threw the wooden boxes away.
The huge wooden box has no lid, and it can be clearly seen that it is filled with four-edged pointed spikes. Under the huge force of the catapult, it rubs it far into the sky, rolls in the air, drawing chaotic arcs, sprinkling the four-edged pointed spikes onto the ground.
The wooden box landed on the ground and fell into pieces. At the same time, the jingling sound filled the entire battlefield. Countless four-edged nails fell to the ground. No matter which three sharp corners were mounted on the ground, there was always a tip pointing upwards, emitting a cold light on the edges of the steel.
The Hun cavalry running clearly saw all this, but did not understand the intentions of the Han army. The obvious danger could not stop them from running wildly. Thousands of troops rushed into the sharp nail array under the four-edged pointed nails.
The running war horse raised its iron hooves and stepped hard on the sharp spikes covered with the ground. The sharp spikes immediately penetrated into the horse's hooves, penetrated their flesh and blood.
The war horse was in pain, raised its head and neighed wildly, and could no longer move forward. With the cavalry on the horse's back, they fell to the ground, stirring up a large area of dust and smoke.
The tragic sound rang out from its mouth again, and the ground was filled with four-edged pointed spikes, which quickly cut through its flesh and penetrated deeply, making it covered with blood grooves and sharp spikes.
Its owner is not better than it. When the war horse fell to the ground, it rolled out, and was dizzy and almost spit out blood.
The sharp spikes on the ground ruthlessly stabbed the Hun cavalry. Although they could not be fatal, they also made the Hun cavalry unbearable and screamed loudly.
Death screams sounded everywhere, and the Hun cavalry who rushed into the sharp spike formation mostly fell down, and screamed with their masters.
The Hun cavalry behind were galloping, but couldn't hold back for a while, and hit him in, trampling his companion in front of him to his bones and tendons. He then fell heavily to the ground, almost fainting afterwards.
At the same time, the crossbow arrow soldiers in front of the square also began to shoot crossbow arrows under the loud command of the General Zuo!
Square cluster arrows flew out quickly, drew an arc in the air, and shot heavily on the body of the Xiongnu cavalry in front of the sharp nail formation. Instantly, they penetrated the armor and reached the inner organs.
Blood splattered and screamed. The Hun cavalry who was caught in the arrow on his body looked desperate and painful, and fell to the sky, stirring up a large area of dust on the ground, struggling in pain until his strength was exhausted, and still grabbed the sword tightly, his face full of grief and anger.
On both wings of the square formation, thousands of female soldiers were wearing armor and holding powerful crossbows in their hands. They aimed at the enemy soldiers in front of them and pulled the trigger with great force.
