sweeping the world

947 Collision
No, they are not the Huns, they are the Huns who are preserved, but they have quite a lot of Hun habits.

The dressing style of the nomads is relatively fixed. Since they have little creativity and productivity, they don't bother weaving and designing clothes. If they want something to hide their shame or keep warm, they can only use the animals harvested by hunting. Leather or leather from slaughtered cattle, sheep and other livestock.

Mao Run would think that what he saw was the Huns, and the enemy army he saw was really the Huns' dress style, most of them were dressed in sheepskin jackets, with a pointed hat on their heads, but they could also see that. Dirty braids that swayed while riding a horse.

The Hunnites are a new tribe of multi-ethnic fusion. However, if multi-ethnic integration is carried out, if the farming ethnic group is integrated, the rest will be wiped out with a higher level of civilization, but the nomads must be left by the stronger ethnic group. The most traces.

According to the historical records of Zhu Xia, the Hunnit light cavalry that suddenly appeared was undoubtedly full of strong Hun style, which Mao Run had never encountered before.

The two armies of different camps wanted to kill each other, and after galloping for a while, they finally had a confrontation.

That's the sound of the bowstring constantly vibrating, and the arrows like locusts are shot out. They will shake their bodies happily during the mid-air leap, and if they hit the human body after falling, they will tear through the clothes and penetrate into the flesh, making the beautiful bright red flowers bloom.

The cavalry on both sides galloping at the front, they had the same situation under the dense arrow rain. Some people kept groaning or screaming and fell off their horses after being hit by arrows, and then they were repeatedly trampled by horseshoes and became part of the ground.

It's not just that humans can be shot by arrows, but that war horses can withstand far more than humans. Of course, they will feel pain when they are shot by arrows. Well-trained war horses will still run forward, and if they are hit by a vital part, they will stumble and fall on the ground. Rolling over on the ground, there will be cases of madness due to pain.

It is a normal scene in cavalry battles that people constantly turn their backs on their backs. Regardless of which side the cavalry is charging forward in a complex environment.Their ears were not only filled with the sound of horseshoes, but also the screams and howls that would not stop. They had enough skill and luck to rush through the chaotic area of ​​their own side, and the next moment was to hedge against the enemy cavalry.

Mao Run was in the midst of charges that were constantly passing by.He tried his best to keep his body close to the horse's neck as he was trained, and the saber in his hand was thrown out horizontally. From time to time, he could feel the saber colliding with objects, and his body would feel more and more wet.

The wet blood comes from the enemy being cut and splashed by the blade, and maybe I was injured somewhere on my body, that is, my head is full of horseshoes and I am in a complex environment where the nerves cannot respond. This is the first time I have encountered such a situation Some people will definitely appear in a trance state, and need to wait for a while to get out of the chaotic place before they can recover.

After the two groups of cavalry pierced each other, Mao Run waited at least 5 minutes to rush out before recovering from the trance state. The trance stage was entirely due to the decision of the horse to move with the group, not out of the control of the rider.

"Are you injured?" Li Bing looked at Mao Run, who was covered in blood all over his body, and pointed to Mao Run's upper left shoulder: "It's rotted there."

The leather shoulder pads were rotten, as if they had been scratched by some blunt object full of spikes.

For the nomads, this group of Hunnitian light cavalry can actually be called well-armored. The sheepskin jacket itself is a kind of protective equipment. They don’t know how many layers of leather jackets they wear. Many of the spears at the head of the gun also have a machete, and some people who look strong use maces as weapons. Compared with the Shujie people, they are well-armored.

The cavalry of the Han army did not stop, they were still cruising at a slow speed, the leading cavalry in front had already begun to make roundabout movements, and the rest of the cavalry may be controlled by humans, or it may be the instinct of the horse to follow the lead horse , The whole cavalry team is making a curved adjustment.

Mao Run looked at his left shoulder dully, feeling pain, subconsciously reached out to touch it, and then controlled his left shoulder to move: "It should be a skin trauma? I should press my body lower, and I shouldn't Lean to the left."

Li Bing knew that he liked Mao Run more and more.He could see that Mao Run was participating in fighting for the first time, and it was not easy to adjust his state after just being in a trance for a while, and it was even more rare to know what improvement he should make.

"This is the benefit of studying." Li Bing himself had to get used to it after three or four fights. He gave Mao Run a thumbs-up and reminded: "We should distance ourselves."

The cavalry will not be too close to Paoze in combat. It is safe to keep a distance of two meters between each other. It is best to keep a distance of more than three meters after launching a charge. Otherwise, it is possible to shake the reins at high speed If they collide, if they are hit by the enemy's arrows, they will inevitably collide. The distance of more than three meters from each other is to give a reaction time to avoid.

The place where the fight had been fought turned into a mess in the true sense. The green grass was trampled and the turf was turned upside down, and the bodies of people and horses were left scattered on the ground in twos and threes.

It is said to be scattered, because the corpses of both people and horses are so damaged that they don't know how many people or horses have no broken corpses left, and they have been trampled into meat mud by horseshoes.

In the confrontation just now, nearly a thousand corpses were left on the side of the Han army camp, and the number on the Hunnitt side would not be less than [-].

Although the losses on the side of the Han army camp were relatively small, the Hunnites were still on the side with a numerical advantage.This is the difference in the number of personnel before the war. At the beginning of the war, there were more than [-] people in the Han army, and about [-] on the Hunnit side.

"I...I..." Abati felt his thigh hurt badly. Since his thigh was wrapped in leather, he couldn't see the traces of the leather being cut by a sharp weapon, but the pain was unbearable: "My leg should have been cut by a sharp weapon. A blunt blow could have broken a bone."

Amidst the sound of hooves, no one could clearly hear what Abati said, and Kuze, who was on the side, could only glance at Abati from time to time with worried eyes.

It is difficult for the cavalry to protect themselves from injuries when they clash with each other. As long as they don't fall down on the spot, they are considered very lucky to be alive after being penetrated.

There is no such thing as leaving the brigade when you are injured. Once you really leave the brigade, it will be a kind of death-seeking behavior. No matter how painful it is, you have to grit your teeth and follow the brigade. You can also see that some of the cavalry teams of the enemy and us will fall off their horses from time to time. , that was too heavy to support the balance on horseback.

The desolate horn was sounded by the two sides, and the two cavalry faced each other again, driving their mounts to sprint as fast as possible. As a result, there was no collision again, and the two cavalry teams from different camps fell. More people dismounted.

This time, Mao Run found that he did not fall into a state of confusion, and could think and distinguish more calmly. It was no longer that the brain could not control the body, and he left it to his instinct to deal with it.

There was a bumping sound, it was Mao Run swiping his saber and knocking off the arrow. After doing this action, he felt that he had been sublimated and entered a new life.He even had time to observe the surroundings, looking at the expressions on the faces of the cavalrymen of his own camp, seeing tense, ferocious, fearful... faces.

At the farther back of the battle field, Su Ren held up the binoculars to observe the overall situation. Behind him were five thousand cavalrymen who were ready to join the battle at any time.

"There is a group of cavalry on the short slope, which should be the commander of the enemy army. There must be an enemy army behind the low slope, and it is estimated that there will be no less than [-]." Su Ren looked in another direction: "Our north side, the enemy army The estimated number is [-]."

Chen Xu asked Su Ren's question: "The enemy army here is counted at [-], what about the remaining [-]...or more enemy army?"

Su Ren put down the binoculars in his hand, and said firmly: "They are going to attack our rear."

Chen Xu also made the same judgment, except that the Hunnites were destined to hit the iron plate, and their rear was not a train team, but a main force.

Of course, there is not only one battlefield in a war. There are battlefields for direct confrontation, and several other battlefields for feints or wear and tear. Many times, it is who can take out the opponent's logistics force that determines the outcome of a war.

Zakuma wanted to win the war by eliminating the logistics of the Han people, and Li Kuang also understood the importance of logistics to a war.

Cavalry battles will not be decided in a short period of time. Even if one side has an absolute advantage, a cavalry battle is not a charge. Usually, one side is cruising and pulling the front line, chasing and fleeing back and forth. In the tug-of-war again and again until one of the parties is dragged down, or the pursuer gives up the pursuit.

Because it is impossible to tell the winner in a short time, looking for the enemy's supply team to destroy, or even cutting off the enemy's supply line, will effectively shorten the time loss of the war.

Whether it is a cavalry battle, or infantry against infantry, or a mixed formation of infantry and cavalry, it is a very effective means to prevent the opponent from obtaining supplies.

The vast plains are very difficult to conceal. If you want to march in concealment, you can only march at night, find a basin or a forest with a large enough area, and avoid the detection of the Hunnites during the day.

Today, Yang Su did not choose to act at night, and no longer concealed and went straight to the enemy's logistics troops that had been reconnaissance.

The Huns are a semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural nation, but no matter what the nation is, as long as they send troops mainly cavalry, they will inevitably choose to bring a large number of herds and only a small amount of heavy animal vehicles.

"A small number of scouts keep an eye on them!" Yang Su was able to clearly see the enemy army in the distance with his binoculars. He lay on the ground and stared at the normal enemy army in front of him: "We are waiting for the night to fall."

Their army of [-] cavalry marched at night and concealed during the day for half a month. With at least [-]% of their luck, and the rest is to use sufficient experience, it can be regarded as a detour to the north of Herat. It was to detect the enemy's train without much effort.

The military strategists of Zhuxia always emphasized the timing, location, and harmony of people. The timing is luck. In many cases, even if the location and harmony are on their own side, they just lack a little bit of luck. It was annihilated by the whole army.

So far, the luck of the Han army seems to be good, and it can even be said to be very lucky. It is almost as if the troops have just entered the position and immediately found the target they were looking for.

"They are on the move, so we can't follow too closely." Bai Xianqi told the truth: "There are their scouts patrolling around, and we may be spotted anytime and anywhere."

Of course Yang Su knew about this situation. There is no such thing as infallible in any war. Some have made a good battle plan and tried their best to avoid unexpected accidents.Although it is very metaphysical, or irresponsible, in fact, after everything is perfect, the rest can only be left to luck.

Things in other places have nothing to do with their troops for the time being, what they need is to wait.And this time, it may be that the Hunnites did not believe that there would be a Han army that could quietly detour to their rear. It may be that the Han army was lucky enough to not be noticed until nightfall.

The ecological environment of the grassland is always filled with the sound of insects at night, and sometimes there are even bursts of howling wolves from unknown locations.

Yang Su still lay on the grass, looked up at the sky, and there was a crescent moon hanging in the corner of the sky: "The stars here are not as beautiful as my hometown."

They don't launch an attack as soon as night falls. The best time for a nighttime sneak attack is the darkest moment before dawn.

It’s not about being picky and wanting to be darker for no reason, not only because the darkest time before dawn is the most sleepy time for the enemy’s night duty personnel, it’s because the prepared attacker is definitely more aware of what is happening than the person being attacked What, after a while, it happens that the east will be whitened, and the distance probably also stunned the other party. With the light, the things to be done can be done more quickly and accurately.

Under the night, the Hunnites lit bonfires one after another. From a distance, they could be seen preparing food, and there were bursts of singing.

There should be nearly 4 people in this Hungarian transport team, but the number of adults is slightly less, and most of them belong to the elderly, weak, women and children.

Men, women, old and young drive the livestock and move with the army. This is a major feature of the nomads. They are not only responsible for providing logistical supplies for the army, but also the main force for picking up the spoils when the war goes well.

"I saw a group of about a thousand women leaving in the evening." Yang Su didn't mind whispering something while waiting: "Do you know where they went?"

There was a burst of low-pitched laughter, who didn't know what was going on, women went to war with the army, no matter if it was Zhu Xia or any other nation, it was nothing more than some physical things that happened.

Yang Su glanced at the enemy camp in the distance again: "Tonight will be extremely long."
