Han counter current

"Well, here, I also rescued hundreds of Han people, basically young and strong men. As long as these people are trained a little, they will all become qualified fighters."

"It sounds interesting, but it's not enough. We have to save more Han people this time. You are too few."

"Well, what else do the Huns have? That's all they can get. Oh, by the way, I also caught a blond and blue-eyed barbarian. He said he was a businessman from the Western Regions. Food,,,,,,"

"Big Food Merchant? Interesting, I like it."

Chen Feng finally heard some news that could surprise him. Originally, he was just teasing Xu Huang, but he didn't expect this guy to really surprise him.

"No way, the lord is as good as Long Yang? And he also likes blond and blue-eyed barbarians. It seems that we should pay more attention to this aspect in the future. No wonder the lord seldom gets close to women..."

What Chen Feng didn't know was that his usual smirk made others think that he had some special liking for Hu people.

In addition, due to the busy work in the past few months, I haven't seen Chen Feng get close to women, let alone heard that he has a wife. Now, the misunderstanding of Zhang Liao and others is too deep.

Chapter 90 Snow Carnival 2

"Why are you all looking at me like this? Is my smile so disgusting?"

Chen Feng finally saw a hint of dislike in the eyes of the generals. He thought it was the result of his long journey.

"My lord, the main force of our army has arrived, and the soldiers are basically familiar with the way of fighting in the snow."

As one of the leaders in charge of this war, Zhang Liao hopes that the war will start sooner: "The Hun tribes are basically spending the winter, and there will be no Hun herdsmen in the wild.

The goal of our army's first phase has been completed. The small group of Xiongnu tribes within a radius of [-] miles have been wiped out, and the excess spoils have been transported away. Next, it is time for us to proceed with the second phase of the plan. "

"Well, God help me, this heavy snow is our best support."

Chen Feng nodded, he naturally knew that he had to hurry up.

"The whole army rests for a day, each battalion replenishes its ordnance and supplies, and tomorrow we will send back most of the spoils and the rescued Han Chinese.

If the field is not vacated, there will be no place to store the next loot, especially those livestock, I don't have so many people to take care of them.

Choose high-quality horses to keep, not cattle, but a little sheep is enough.The specific plan will be discussed at night. Has there been any unexpected situation recently? "

"No big surprises."

Zhang Liao reported the situation in detail: "There are currently no casualties in our army, but 16 were seriously injured and have been sent back to the rear for recuperation.

42 people were slightly injured and recuperated for a few days, and another 33 people were infected with wind and cold. According to the request of the lord, they had to stay in the cottage for the time being to recuperate.

The rest are basically normal, with enough food, supplies, and weapons. By the way, if we talk about accidents, the few tribes we attacked recently that are related to King Zuo Xian of the Xiongnu were a bit unexpected.The young and strong in these tribes have been transferred to half, which also led to the smooth completion of our initial plan.

As for the other small tribes that have nothing to do with Zuo Xianwang, this is not the case. As for those medium-sized and larger tribes, we don't know what happened. "

"The Zuoxian King of the Huns, in Fuluo?"

Chen Feng squinted his eyes, bursting out with killing intent.

"It's the one who led the army to invade Yanmen and disrupted our original plan. He suffered so much last time, so we can't take advantage of him this time, but this situation is a bit special.

In this way, the order of extermination was temporarily cancelled, and the following battles allowed the capture of captives, especially those Huns nobles with status and status, mainly to capture the living ones.

Be sure to find out what the hell the other party is doing. The small tribes nearby should have been wiped out. Let's pick a bigger one first. "

"It's far to the northwest. I'll give you 500 men to guard all the main roads. The escaped enemy troops will be handed over to you."

Chen Feng began to issue combat orders: "Cao Xing, you choose 200 people to pretend to be horse bandits to plunder the opponent's livestock, mainly to lure the opponent to attack, not to entangle.

Gongming, start preparations with your 500 people, and leave the rest to me. Follow the plan and strive to resolve the battle within a day. "

The three generals brought their own troops, and there were 100 to [-] left on Chen Feng's side, and his [-] personal guards were not counted. After all, the main task of these personal guards was to protect Chen Feng's safety, not to go up. Kill the enemy on the battlefield.

"Four hundred crossbowmen began to line up, one hundred shield soldiers stepped forward to hold down the formation, and one hundred cavalry on each side of the left and right wings. The rest, follow me to the commanding heights to watch the battle."

To lure the enemy to attack, and then nibble away at the enemy's vital strength little by little, this is the strategy Chen Feng and Jia Xu came up with when specifying the battle plan. Before each battle starts, they must find a way to lure the enemy to attack.

Zhang Liao and others have always done this. After the young and strong were wiped out, the small tribes basically had no resistance, so Zhang Liao and the others easily broke through.

The size of the tribe in front of him is not small, and there will definitely be casualties if they attack by force. Chen Feng doesn't want to do this kind of loss-making business.

Before his side is exposed, before the enemy realizes the danger, he doesn't plan to adopt such a fighting method. Winter is still long, and Chen Feng has plenty of time.

After waiting for half an hour, there was finally some movement on the opposite side.Cao Xing led two hundred horse bandits dressed up as fierce soldiers, which had an effect, and they angered the Huns.

Behind them, five hundred Hun cavalry were galloping on horseback. Although many Huns had not had time to put on their armor, every Hun cavalry carried a bow and arrow.

The Huns cavalry are indeed elite, even in such an environment they can quickly organize their counterattacks.

"Here we come, crossbowmen are ready."

Gao Ping is in the center of the archer's position, and today he will be in command of the positional battle. He has been waiting for this moment for a long time.

"Why are there so many horse bandits? Are they dying?" Many Huns were very curious when they saw the infantry positions ahead.

For many years, no one dared to plunder their tribes in this cold winter. Even if they really couldn't survive, they should pick some small tribes to start.

Moreover, even if the looting is successful, so what, the winter is very long, and the supplies obtained from the looting are definitely not enough, and there are bound to be casualties in every battle.

In this environment, the injured person is basically sentenced to death.No medicine, no care, not even a place to die in the end.

Although the prairie tribes are predatory, they are not stupid enough to adopt such a lose-lose method to survive in winter.

In other words, plundering in winter is not to maintain survival, but to speed up death. Therefore, after seeing the group of infantry on the opposite side, most of these Huns responded with a contemptuous smile.

"Arrows,,,,,,"

There was no extra words, Gao Ping directly ordered to shoot when he saw the opponent entered the range, and the people on both sides of Cao Xing had already walked around from the side, so the crossbowmen didn't have to worry about hurting their own people.

"300 people rushed with me, 100 people on each side rode and shot to harass,,,,,,"

A commander in the Xiongnu army immediately changed his strategy. He would not attack the opponent's formation foolishly. Although they could win in this way, if they could make the opponent's formation collapse earlier, they would save their own side. A lot of trouble.

"The embryonic form of wave attack."

On the hillside, Chen Feng looked at the Huns who changed their formation, and the melancholy expression on his face began to increase.

"Cavalry and shooting harassment is the best way to deal with infantry formations. If they have enough troops, they will probably use continuous attacks. The cavalry on both sides will continue to attack until the infantry formation collapses. The grassland cavalry is really powerful. ah.

There are no military books to teach, and there are no powerful military masters. They should have learned this set of tactics from nature, and then used actual battles to test the effect.

They themselves can accept several or even dozens of failures, but after each failure they will continue to gather troops and prepare for the next attack.Because they are cavalry, they have always held the initiative on the battlefield.

Repeatedly like this, the infantry on the opposite side could not get a rest, and could only take their lives to resist again and again, until the steppe cavalry retreated voluntarily, or the infantry in formation collapsed.

Such a simple but effective tactic, coupled with the tenacious character of the prairie cavalry and the temper of brown sugar, it is no wonder that the prairie tribes in history will gradually become stronger.
