Mythic version of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1549 Annihilation
Seeing the Xiongnu cavalry galloping past like thunder in the jungle not only shocked Li Yan, but also made Li Yan fearful.

Danyang's elite soldiers spared no expense to curb the charging speed of the Northern Xiongnu's fine cavalry for this moment. Li Yan's legion talent, coupled with the elite talent of Danyang's soldiers, was enough to transfer the troops he wanted to the position he wanted in a moment.

After confirming that the speed of the Xiongnu Jingqi has dropped significantly due to the occasional charge of the left and right wings and the attack of the Karasuma cavalry behind him, Li Yan immediately stopped hesitating. , fast!
As long as one of them is abolished and their movement is restricted, even if the other party is capable, it may be very difficult to show it.

"Boom!" With a dull sound, the Danyang elite soldier holding a large shield broke his arms and was sent flying. He couldn't go around and had to hit the Northern Xiongnu Jingqi on top. After breaking through several layers, his speed dropped significantly. down.

After all, it is not the cavalry of Xiliang Iron Cavalry who can only choose one way. The Northern Xiongnu Jingqi, who can fight in close quarters, attack from a distance, ride and shoot, and charge, has completely slowed down after breaking through several layers of defenses. The Danyang elite soldiers who were waiting for the opportunity had already surrounded them, leaving no room for the Northern Huns to accelerate.

After failing to step into the formation and being forcibly restrained from speed, the Northern Xiongnu Jingqi actually knew the result. After any cavalry lost speed, there would be no other results. When the proud horse has become a burden, this cavalry One step away from death.

"Kill!" Li Yan roared angrily after seeing the success of the pocket formation he had set up, and more than 3000 Danyang soldiers from the headquarters spontaneously infiltrated from both sides towards the Northern Xiongnu Jingqi who had fallen into the center in groups of five.

Soon nearly 3000 Northern Xiongnu elite cavalry were cut and surrounded by more than [-] Danyang soldiers into small pieces. However, the ensuing battle made Li Yan clearly feel the tenacity of the Northern Xiongnu elite, even if they dismounted and fought on foot. Not inferior to Danyang elite soldiers.

Of course, the Danyang Elite Soldiers themselves are not famous for their individual combat effectiveness. This kind of elite is a typical example that the more people there are, the stronger the combat effectiveness. Their own organization and teamwork make their combat effectiveness rise very exaggeratedly after the number reaches a certain level.

However, the tyrannical strength of the Northern Xiongnu's elite cavalry and dismounted combat was just a flash in the pan. Zhou Yu was not just watching from the sidelines. After Li Yan led the Danyang elite soldiers to appear, Zhou Yu had already ordered all the soldiers to prepare for bows and arrows.

Although most of the infantry in Jiangdong are weak, Zhou Yu is quite confident in the combat effectiveness of the Danyang soldiers. Even if it is impossible to defeat the Northern Xiongnu Jingqi, Zhou Yu believes that Li Yan can still do it to block the opponent.

Of course, Li Yan's subsequent performance was a surprise to Zhou Yu. Although Zhou Yu didn't see what happened because of the chaos on the battlefield, Li Yan not only blocked the Northern Huns Jingqi, but also restricted the speed of the Northern Xiongnu Jingqi. In the encirclement of the army, he could see this scene clearly.

Therefore, after confirming the situation, Zhou Yu made a decisive decision, led the whole army to rush over, and then organized elite archers to wipe out the Northern Xiongnu elite cavalry piece by piece.

This method of using archers quickly produced results. Wenpin and Cheng Pu immediately led a group of archers to wipe out the Xiongnu who were besieged in the center piece by piece.

In this kind of battlefield completely covered under the rain of arrows, the Northern Huns Jingqi lost the speed of their horses and could not quickly leave the battlefield, and was forced to hold the Northern Huns' thrusts by Li Yan from the front, causing the Northern Huns Jingqi completely lost the opportunity to retreat.

With the arrival of more backup, the Northern Xiongnu Jingqi, who was surrounded by heavy siege, fell aggrieved on the road of charging. Of course, this was only for the Northern Huns, and it was a very lucky thing for Zhou Yu.

However, when counting the battle damage later, Zhou Yu's face became very ugly. Not to mention the loss of nearly [-] arrows, the loss of soldiers alone exceeded [-]. They bought [-] Northern Xiongnu Jingqi, but apart from achieving their strategic goals, they basically lost money in other aspects.

In other words, in fact, for Zhou Yu in this battle, apart from gaining combat experience against cavalry, all other seized materials were just illusions, and he gained nothing at all.

"Is the loss so heavy?" Zhou Yu said with a gloomy expression.

"If General Li hadn't withstood the Northern Huns' assault, I'm afraid the result would have been even worse. The possibility of the Northern Huns' strategic retreat would be very high." Wen Pin bowed his head and said in awe. Zhou Yu rarely showed a gloomy look, and once That would mean something big happened.

"Stay in the camp and rest for a while. I need to talk to the aristocratic family who followed us, and I can't fight like this. A mere three thousand northern Xiongnu actually ate twice as many infantry as I led, and they were still in our army. Under the unexpected ambush." ​​Zhou Yu pressed his thumb against his index finger with a dignified expression.

For Zhou Yu, going north to participate in the war is not as obvious as the benefits. He has basically obtained what he wants now, and the things he does afterward are more to complete the deal with Chen Xi. Of course, more of it is for Sun Ce.

It's just that Zhou Yu, who just landed, fought such a fierce battle. It can be said that since he went south to Pingjiangdong and captured Jingxiang, Zhou Yu has never lost so many troops in a single war in any war.

[We must think of a separate method. This kind of war has no meaning other than revenge. The cavalry of the Northern Huns is very troublesome. ] Zhou Yu thought silently.

Wenpin nodded and paid the bill, and ordered people to start notifying the leaders of the big and small families who came to the Liaodong Peninsula with them. He also saw the tragedy of this battle, and the Northern Huns were indeed difficult to deal with.

[I also need to work hard. My legion talent is only meaningful when defending. I need to change my fighting style. A general who can't even resist is not far from losing his meaning. 】 Wenpin thought heavily.

Unlike Li Yan, Wen Pin has been following Sun Ce and Zhou Yu for a very long time, but in comparison, Li Yan's performance is far more dazzling than Wen Pin's. They were defeated, but Li Yan forcibly sealed the victory, which put a lot of pressure on Wen Pin, a senior.

On the other hand, Li Yan and Cheng Pu are also sorting out the experience of this battle, but Li Yan thinks more about how to better display his abilities. After using his talents together with the elite talents of Danyang elite soldiers, then This feeling of being in control of the legion made him develop a lot of tactics.
