Chapter 128, both lose

After He Lian died, the battle soon ended.

Because Xu Wei and the others had no cavalry, they rode on horseback to the Xianbei soldiers and quickly fled the battlefield. He had no way of chasing them.

Liri Deduction, who was fighting fiercely with Wang Yong more than a dozen miles away, heard the retreating bullhorn and his face changed drastically. He knew that this was Murong Peng's failure. If he defeated Lei Gong, he should lead the cavalry to support them now instead of Blow the horns of retreat!

Lü Ri Deyan said to his subordinates: "It was Murong Peng and the others who blew the horn to retreat. They were defeated, and we will leave the battle immediately."

"Woo, woo, woo!"

As the Luri deduction blew the horn of retreat, the Xianbei cavalry withdrew from the battlefield. Just now they carried out more than a dozen rounds of fierce charging, but found that it was difficult for them to suppress Lei Gong's subordinates, and their losses were even greater than Lei Gong's. There are many subordinates, and they have the intention to retreat in the face of such elite Xianbei cavalry!
So soon the Xianbei cavalry gathered around Luri Deduction, and then quickly withdrew from the battlefield under his leadership!

The same situation also happened on Tuoba Mo's side, and so far the battle was completely over.

Wang Yong saw that the exhausted men did not continue to pursue. He looked at almost all the wounded men, and the horses were also panting. Obviously, this battle also made them exhausted.

Lüri deduced an experienced veteran. He divided the cavalry into several teams. One team entangled Wang Yong's cavalry, and the rest attacked the pikemen phalanx. The two infantry phalanxes were overwhelmed by the Xianbei. This time their casualties will be more than that of the Xianbei people. Although they can fight, it cannot be said that he was defeated, but the loss is that he is bigger than the Xianbei people.

He scolded: "These Xianbei people are really tenacious. They beat them like this even when they have all the equipment. If they didn't have the equipment advantage, I'm afraid we would all be slaughtered by the Xianbei people!"

This reminded Wang Yong of several years ago, when they rebelled with great virtuous teachers, they held wooden sticks and agricultural tools against the cavalry of the imperial court. At that time, tens of thousands of them were slaughtered like lambs, and they escaped by luck under the leadership of old man Wang. .

Xianbei people can fight against big men for decades, and they still have the upper hand.

He secretly said: "Lao Tzu's soldiers will all be replaced with iron armor in the future, you Xianbei people will definitely not be able to escape."

On the central battlefield, although Murong Peng escaped, there were still a large number of lost horses, or the injured Xianbei people chose to surrender out of awareness of current affairs.

When Wang Ge and the others saw the surrendered Xianbei, they smiled and said, "We have won!"

Xu Wei also nodded when he heard this, and said with a little regret: "It's a pity that we don't have cavalry, otherwise we could have left [-] more Xianbei people!"

There are at least 1 Xianbei corpses and wounded left here. If Wang Yong and the others can also leave 2 Xianbei people, today the Xianbei people lost 10 soldiers, plus the loss of five or six in the previous battle. Thousands of people, it seems that more than [-] people have been lost in Wubao in Pingcheng. It is said that [-] Xianbei people have lost three or four percent of the battle so far. This is a loss that is enough to collapse an army. Xu Wei does not think Now the Xianbei still have the power to fight again, and retreat is their only option.

War has always been a game for the brave. Those who die first are those who can fight and fight hard. Most of the rest are mediocre people or people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. When all the brave men die, the mediocre people They will flee under the leadership of those who are greedy for life and fear of death. This is also the reason why few troops can bear [-]% of the deaths. Now there are no beheadings among the Xianbei people who have the desire to fight.

"Shuai Qu, let's report that we killed Da Khan Helian from Xianbei!" A staff officer happily reported.

Xu Wei was surprised: "Didn't He Lian say that he is a coward, that he would fight on the front line of the battlefield?"

Don’t look at the Romance of the Three Kingdoms where generals are often singled out, but in real history, it is difficult for a coach to die on the front line, because the generals are surrounded by personal guards to protect them. As long as the battle situation is unfavorable, they will immediately protect and evacuate.

That's why Guan Yu became a martial sage, punishing Yan Liang and beheading Wen Chou, he became the first general among the ten thousand armies, and he is the only one clearly recorded in history.

The staff officer smiled and said: "It is said that it was because he was the first to escape when he fought Wang Yong last time, and the commanders of the Xianbei people were all dissatisfied. He Lian had no choice but to go to the battlefield! As a result, he just bumped into the Modao team and did not escape."

Xu Wei was a little stunned, Helian wouldn't be so unlucky!The Modao team can be said to be the first heavy infantry in the world. When everyone is not aware of its function, it can obviously explode with greater power, and He Lian unexpectedly bumped into it!

Xu Wei didn't know that although the Xianbei people are the overlords of the grassland, the 100-year history obviously does not belong to them, but to the heroes of the Three Kingdoms. Even when they have a hero, they will die quickly.

Like their first great Khan, Tan Shihuai, who could have become the strongest enemy of the Han Dynasty, but he died young at the hands of Ding Lingren.

The second generation of Khan Helian, even in the original history, he was shot to death by the Northlanders when he attacked the Northland, that is to say, he did not die in the hands of the Han army, but in the hands of the common people of the Han Dynasty. Not to mention that the big man is really full of martial arts virtues, and he convinces people with virtues. A few ordinary people broke the luck of the Xianbei people for decades.

After He Lian's death, the entire Xianbei national army did not sweat profusely, but was completely torn apart. It was not until decades later that there was a man named Kebi who could make the Xianbei people rise. Even in modern games, Kebi can appear. In history, after Ke Bineng became stronger, he launched a war to unify the entire Xianbei Kingdom, and wanted to build a powerful grassland empire again.

Feeling threatened, Wang Xiong, governor of Youzhou in Wei State, sent assassin Han Long to assassinate him, and he succeeded! (I think this is an event that can be recorded in the history books. Han Long is comparable to assassins like Nie Zheng, Yaoli, and Jing Ke, but such an important event and such a powerful assassin have been forgotten by the historians of all dynasties. With the Internet, it is estimated that people in future generations will not know that there is such an assassin who changed the history of China.) The regime collapsed immediately, and the Xianbei nation fell into melee again. The Xianbei people were so unlucky that it can only be said that they were not lucky enough to suppress a country luck.

Under the leadership of his subordinates, Xu Wei quickly came to Helian's body. He took a closer look and found that it was the Xianbei man who was talking to him that day, Khan Helian!
Xu Hao said happily: "Okay, our great enemy in Mayi has been eliminated. He Lian died here, and no new Khan was elected. The Xianbei people will be in chaos for a while! Our Mayi can be safe for a while Yes! Who killed Helian?"

Bao Yu said, "It's him!"

He pushed Duan Peng out.

Xu Wei smiled and said, "What's your name?"

"Duan Peng!"

Xu Wei said happily: "You have made great achievements. After the war is over, go to the military academy to study. I hope you can become an excellent officer in the future!"

Bao Yu and the others looked at Duan Peng enviously. After entering the military academy, he would at least be a village chief after he came out. For ordinary soldiers, he was indeed a step up to the sky.

Duan Peng was overjoyed and said, "Thank you Shuai Qu!"

After confirming He Lian's death, the soldiers continued to clean the battlefield, and Xu Wei and other commanders gathered together to start counting casualties.

Wang Yong was the first to say: "We had over ten thousand casualties, among which three thousand were killed in battle and seven thousand were injured. But the Xianbei people were also killed and injured over ten thousand."

Then Wang Yong said unwillingly: "If the two phalanxes were not broken, the casualties on my side would be reduced by half, and the training time is still too short. The soldiers will panic when they encounter Xianbei cavalry on the battlefield. If they are professional soldiers, I can wipe out the Xianbei cavalry!"

Xu Wei rolled his eyes and said, "We only have 30 soldiers in total, but you want to raise [-] soldiers. Are you planning to let the soldiers eat sand?"

Commander Li Bin, who commanded Youyi, said: "The casualties on my side were slightly smaller. More than 2000 soldiers were killed and more than 3000 soldiers were injured! But the results were not many, and there were probably more than 5000 Xianbei left behind."

Wang Ge of the Chinese army said: "We killed 1000 soldiers, suffered more than 3000 casualties, and left behind 1 Xianbei corpses. Most of the victories belonged to the soldiers of the Modao camp."

Wang Ge said happily: "The Modao Battalion can suppress the cavalry head-on. With such experience, we should equip more."

Xu Wei said helplessly: "I can't afford it, and it costs 3000 million yuan to support these [-] people!"

It is difficult for even Mayi to support three thousand small tyrants. With this money, it is better to get more pikemen.

Finally Xu Wei concluded: "That is to say, even if we defeated the Xianbei people, we still suffered 2 casualties. The war really hurt 1000 enemies and 800 ourselves."

This battle can be said to be a lose-lose situation. The better thing about Xu Wei and the others is that they won, and most of the wounded can be rescued.But the Xianbei people were defeated, and if they lost 2 people, they really lost all of them.

Mayi already lacked a young and strong labor force, and now he had to allocate manpower to take care of the wounded. In addition, the autumn harvest was about to come, but he brought a large army to fight the Xianbei people.Because this battle will at least affect Mayi's development for a year, it's a big loss!

The story is divided into two parts, how happy Xu Wei and the others are when they defeat the enemy, and how frustrated the Xianbei people are when they lose!

Back at the camp, Lü Ri Deyan and others found Murong Peng and asked: "You have [-] elite soldiers in your hands, how could you lose so quickly, Lei Gong is surrounded by infantry!"

Murong Peng said dejectedly: "The Iron Armored Army next to Lei Gong is indeed his most powerful elite. They have a terrifying long sword. Our warriors rushed in front of these Iron Armored Army, but no matter whether it was a man or a horse, they would cut them in half. We were all frightened, Lei Gong's 3000 Iron Armored Army directly crushed my [-] warriors! We lost more than [-] warriors in this battle!"

Three thousand infantrymen actually crushed thirty thousand cavalrymen. If the one in front of him was not his old comrade-in-arms, he would have thought it was done by a coward!
Tuoba Mo said helplessly: "This battle can no longer be fought, and I have lost more than 5000 warriors. Everyone is unwilling to continue fighting!"

Lüri deduced with a sigh: "5000 soldiers died on my side, that is to say, we lost 2 soldiers in the first battle today. If we count all the soldiers who died in the battle since the attack on Mayi, we are almost dead 4 There are tens of thousands of soldiers, and the casualties are almost half, and the soldiers are starting to fear Lei Gong's subordinates, and they must retreat!"

Then he looked around and asked strangely, "Did Khan not see it?"

Murong Peng said: "Death in battle, this time he lived up to the reputation of Tan Shihuai Khan, he died in the front line!"

Lu Ri deduced coldly at his old comrade-in-arms and said, "Khan is surrounded by elite royal guards, how could he die so easily!"

He looked at the tribal leaders around to see if they had murdered Helian, but these tribal leaders were completely innocent, and instead were furious. If Helian hadn't encouraged them to attack Mayi, how could they have suffered such a huge loss? The tribe can hardly survive this winter, and they are about to die. Naturally, they don't care that Helian, a Xianbei man, is sweating profusely, let alone that Helian is seeking his own death. What does it have to do with them?
Although Luri deduced and looked down on Helian, he was a descendant of Tan Shihuai after all, and he was the profuse sweat of the Xianbei people. It would hurt the morale of the Xianbei people to die in Mayi like this.

Moreover, he couldn't accept that the Xianbei country, which had been torn apart after Helian's death, was about to collapse completely. Whether it was his loyalty to Tan Shihuai or the needs of the Xianbei people in the west, it was hard for him to accept Helian's death in battle like this.

Murongpeng knew that Lu Ri's deduction thought Helian was killed, so he immediately explained: "In order to atone for his sins, Helian rushed to the front line with his personal guards, and faced Lei Gong's fearsome armored army. The army was chopped into pieces, and Helian didn't escape!"

Lu Ri deduced angrily: "Why did you let Da Khan charge at the forefront? Now that he is dead, our Xianbei Kingdom is about to perish. Are you satisfied?"

Tuoba Mo immediately persuaded him: "Everyone calm down, the battle has become like this, and even if Helian returns to Baitan Mountain, he will not be able to survive. It may not be a good thing for him to die on the battlefield!"

This battle was initiated by Helian Liaison and everyone. If he succeeds, Helian will naturally increase his prestige, and he can take back the rights that belong to him, the Xianbei Khan, but now he has failed, or even suffered a disastrous defeat. Even, even the tribal leader will not let Helian go.

At this time, a young commander ran into the big tent and said: "Several commanders, our patriarch tells you to retreat immediately!"

"What happened, is the Han army coming!" Tuoba Mo immediately asked.

Xiaoshuai said with a mournful face: "Lei Gong sent 1 cavalry to raid Danhan Mountain and robbed us of our cattle and sheep! We are about to run out of food."

As soon as these words came out, the tribal leaders in the tent immediately became a sensation.

"How is this possible? How dare the Han people go to Khan Tanshan!" The Xianbei people couldn't believe it.

However, the generals were very decisive, and they stopped fighting for the company, and immediately ordered to retreat, even ignoring the big account of the Chinese army.
