Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 307 The Boundless Sea of ​​People

"Report, general, a large army of barbarians appears ahead!"

"Did it show up?"

With the return of the scout cavalry, Guan Hai's expression became more solemn. After a rough count, he found that there were actually 10,000+, including both infantry and cavalry.

"Aren't we looking for favorable terrain?" someone asked.

"There are no mountains nearby, so there won't be any favorable terrain!"

Guan Hai sighed, this is the disadvantage of talking on paper. It is indeed a good choice to find a favorable location, but the prerequisite is not on the grassland.

"Get ready for battle. Being able to meet the enemy in this relatively perfect state is already a pretty good state!"

Guan Hai was in a daze for a moment, thinking of the days when he took the Yellow Turban brothers to hide in Tibet, and officers and soldiers might jump out from somewhere.

Compared to now, at least knowing where the enemy is is pretty good.

"I am Guan Hai!" Guan Hai clenched the sword in his hand, and his hearty laughter infected the surrounding soldiers. They all felt relieved from Guan Hai's laughter.

The initially flustered mood stabilized instantly, and the army's clouds also became more condensed at this moment.

"No matter what time, the general must maintain absolute confidence!" Guan Hai silently thought about the knowledge he had learned in his heart.

He was not a smart man, and he couldn't learn those Xuanxiang military formations at all, but he still learned a lot.

The most important one is that as a general, you must not show panic at any time.

The general is so courageous that even the general cannot maintain his composure, so how can he keep his soldiers calm?

After that, Guan Hai didn't say anything more and started to arrange it on the spot. Guan Hai didn't know Xuan Xiang, but Guan Hai gathered the military formation. Under Guan Hai's control, a military formation with a circle on the outside and a square on the inside slowly took shape. The clouds in the sky Rolling, it clearly condensed into an earth-yellow whole, and then slowly spread out.

This is already the greatest level of military formation that Guan Hai can master. Mu Yi tailor-made it for Guan Hai. The reason why he can master this military formation is inseparable from his own military talent.

This military formation itself was designed to match Guan Hai's military talent.

As Guan Hai unfolded his legion talent, the khaki glow covered all the soldiers. The effect was very simple, reducing physical consumption and allowing the soldiers to overdraw their strength within a safe range.

This was the limit of what Guan Hai could do. Guan Hai wiped the sweat from his forehead. For him, this kind of delicate work was more energy-consuming than fighting someone for three hundred rounds.

As the military formation on Guan Hai's side unfolded, slight vibrations were transmitted to the earth. Although not all of the hundreds of thousands of troops were cavalry, the turmoil of moving together was enough to shock people. This shock also made people feel shocked. The Han army several miles away was ready.

Looking at the gray line coming from the horizon from a distance, many soldiers of the Han army had sweat on their palms. However, looking at the god-like Guan Hai at the front, the tension in their hearts suddenly eased a lot.

Guan Hai stood there like a divine needle that fixed the sea, giving them infinite confidence. Without the sense of tension, they would not be too afraid. They took out the arrows and placed them on the bow strings, tilted their shields, and straightened their spears. Place it directly on the large shield.

"Hu people are just barbarians. No matter how many there are, they are just a bunch of bastards!"

Guan Hai looked at the crowd of Hu people with a sneer. The formations of the Hu people all over the field of vision were so bad that even Guan Hai could see many flaws.

"It's a little tricky!"

But after careful analysis, Guan Hai's heart sank. Although there were many flaws, there were almost no fatal flaws. In other words, the opponent's numerical advantage had already covered up the flaws.

The Northern Huns are also very aware of the fighting power of Zahu Trash, so they don't think about fighting fairly.

Guan Hai's more than [-] men would be easily eaten by the Northern Huns' warriors, but Guan Hai's counterattack would definitely take away a large number of Northern Huns elites.

For the Northern Huns, who had a small population, this was almost an unbearable pain.

So the tactic they are using now is the most commonly used tactic in the history of war, the human sea tactic!

Use miscellaneous beard to nourish the poison and use miscellaneous beard to consume it. Only in this way can the Northern Huns preserve their strength to the maximum extent.

Unlike the human sea tactics of other countries that are not on the stage, cannot be commanded, and are prone to collapse at one point or a complete collapse, the Huns' human sea tactics are very smooth to use. There are even military forces that have developed human sea tactics in the past. Array.

The Northern Huns didn't care about Zahu's losses, and how many died had nothing to do with them, so they only needed to ensure that Zahu rushed forward wave after wave.

Although the utilization efficiency is very low and the effect can be very bad, it can still be effective, which achieves their purpose.

As Zahu's cavalry approached the sprint distance, Guan Hai slowly raised the sword in his hand. When the Hu's cavalry crossed the last mile of the limit distance, the speed of the Hu's cavalry suddenly exploded. Nearly ten thousand cavalry He directly faced Guan Hai and launched a charge.

"Infantry comes forward, guns lined up!"

As the war drums sounded "dong dong dong", the soldiers of Guan Hai's Central Army holding large shields lined up in order to set up a shield wall in front. Spears nearly two feet long extended out from the gaps in the shield wall like a forest of trees. go.

The best way to deal with a cavalry charge is naturally to use the strongest defense to resist. This is why most cavalry are not easy to deal with heavy infantry.

Once the heavy infantry withstands the first wave of charges with heavy defense, the cavalry that has slowed down will suffer a fatal blow. Not every type of cavalry can have the same superior defense as the Xiliang cavalry.

Of course, the Hu people did not have the courage to face death. They split directly under the leadership of the Northern Huns warriors, splitting towards both sides at an alarming speed, as if they were two open arms, trying to embrace Guan Hai's army. generally.

The clouds in the sky had become entangled together, and the two suddenly elongated clouds put a sarcastic smile on Guan Hai's face.

I really don’t know whether I should say that the Huns were stupid or that they underestimated them and actually wanted to use a frontal charge to bluff them. After finding that it didn’t work, they immediately retreated and prepared to attack from behind.

However, doesn’t Zahu think this distance is too close?
"Fire arrows!"

Guan Hai discovered before the war started that the number of barbarians was too great, so he simply pushed the archers directly behind the spearmen and shield soldiers.

Even in order to maximize the combat effectiveness of the archer corps, they were organized into square and organic archer corps. The military formation was circular on the outside and square on the inside, just to allow the arrow rain of these bows and arrows to exert the maximum killing effect.

When the Hu cavalry fled from both sides, a large number of arrows burst out directly towards the opposite side.

For a time, hundreds of Hu cavalry fell directly under the purge of this organized archer corps.

Unlike the weapons and equipment of the Han Dynasty, which were constantly updated and updated, most of the weapons and equipment in the hands of the Northern Xiongnu were earned from mercenaries in Anxi. If it were not for the qualitative transformation of the Han Dynasty, it would be impossible to maintain an empire-level combat effectiveness.The characteristics of the nomadic people destined them to be weak in equipment scientific research.

Even the Northern Huns themselves were not fully equipped, so how could these miscellaneous troops who were used as cannon fodder be well-equipped.

The vast majority of miscellaneous soldiers are equipped with cloth and leather armor, and the vast majority only have leather armor.

However, what do you say about leather armor? Unless you are using leather armor made from the fur of a beast with internal energy that is separated from the body, otherwise, its defensive ability against arrows is quite worrying.

However, if the furs of beasts with internal Qi separation level were to arm the Hu people, it would not be as easy as asking the Huns to replace them all with a suit of armor.

That kind of thing is almost impossible to find. Even the generals of the Northern Huns rarely have one.

However, the Hu cavalry were not completely beaten. After being baptized by the rain of arrows, they quickly took out their short bows and fought back.

But even if they grew up on horses, without the support of stirrups and saddles, their arrows relied purely on feel.

Moreover, the power of arrows without the blessing of talent is just that.

The private soldiers brought by this group of aristocratic family members all have good armor, not to mention the personal soldiers under Guan Hai's command.

Speaking of which, these armors were also a way Mu Yi used to exploit the family.

After defeating Yuan Shao, Mu Yi accumulated a large amount of weapons and armor, but compared to new armor and new weapons, these weapons and armor were simply not comparable.

It's useless to use it and it's a pity to discard it. This was Mu Yi's biggest headache at the time.

But later, at Jia Xu's suggestion, he directly sold these weapons and armor to major aristocratic families and made a huge profit from them.

Hiding armor and crossbows was considered a serious crime in the past, but in Mu Yi's time, this was changed, and old-fashioned armor and equipment were no longer considered contraband.

Just like after Maxim appeared, the cavalry withdrew from the stage of history.

The superiority of new equipment will become more and more obvious. Old-fashioned equipment will certainly enhance the strength of the family, but the money and food used by the family to purchase armor and weapons will allow Mu Yi's army to have better armor and weapons.

No one thinks that in a world where hot weapons are rampant, a pair of sophisticated armor can make a difference, right?

Although it was completely destroyed by the equipment of the regular army, at this moment, facing the barbarians, these equipment still showed considerable superiority.

The weak short bow arrows fell on them without any pain at all.

Without the ability of the Mongolian archers to transform light and heavy, the arrows of the Hu cavalry were just scratching the itch.

The arrow rain burst out again, and many horsemen fell off their horses immediately. After several rounds of arrow rain, the cavalry who circled to both sides were beaten to pieces.

"The cavalry attack, give me a hard beating, don't let anyone go!" Guan Hai waved his hand and ordered the cavalry to attack.

The cavalry on standby at the rear of the army immediately galloped out from the rear of the army and ran directly into the Hu cavalry, fighting together.

The existence of stirrups and saddles allowed them to use long-handled weapons without any pressure. Although there were not many in number, they completely dominated the battle with the Hu cavalry.

"Strange, when did the Han Dynasty have so many excellent cavalry?" Lan Limu looked at the entangled cavalry.

Being able to use long-handled weapons is a symbol of elite cavalry, but looking at the Han cavalry entangled with the barbarians, they don't look like elite cavalry at all.

Lan Limu kept this discovery in his mind and planned to study it carefully after the Han Dynasty army was destroyed.

He had already noticed in his observation just now that the equipment of this unit was quite well-equipped, and almost everyone was wearing armor. After annihilating this group of troops, they would be able to arm a group of Northern Huns warriors again.

As for Zahu, being able to use the extremely warm leather armor that they returned from the Northern Huns is already the greatest gift to them.

However, there was a hint of fear in Lan Limu's eyes. The ordinary army of the Han Dynasty already had this kind of equipment, and the quality of this army was a bit too high.

Although he had not participated in the previous Han-Hungarian war, he had also participated in the Roman and Parthian wars. The quality displayed by this side of the army was enough to sneak into the battlefield with the Eagle Banner and the Praetorian Guard.

Especially the group of legions in the center, even he could feel some pressure from there, which showed that the other party was definitely not simple.

However, the numerical advantage is absolute, and with the warriors of the Northern Huns leading the way, this partial army will only die. It must be said that it is really the God of Kunlun who protects them, allowing them to find such a good opportunity.

Being able to annihilate such a partial army, even if these bastards lose a lot of money, they will probably be awakened to varying degrees, and the combat effectiveness they can exert will be even stronger than now.

The Hu cavalry was just an appetizer, and soon the Hu army surrounded Guan Hai and the others, and the sun hanging high in the sky was completely obscured by clouds.

The miscellaneous barbarians surged past like a frenzy, while the Han army was as stable as Mount Tai.

Under the leadership of the Guanhai Legion, all the soldiers performed their duties, like a precise instrument running in an orderly manner.

The barbarians kept attacking the formation and then being repulsed. The morale of the Han soldiers trapped in the formation began to decline.

At a glance, there are already heads everywhere. Even if there is no accurate statistical method, you can estimate a number by feeling. It is a suffocating number.

Even though the fighting soldiers couldn't look into the distance, the continuous enemies really made them feel tired.

"Shrink the formation!"

Guan Hai frowned. He could no longer maintain his composure. The human sea tactic was more troublesome than imagined when actually dealing with it.

The suffocating feeling of being surrounded was slowly eroding the soldier's will to fight.

Guan Hai didn't know if Zhao Jun, who was surrounded in Changping, felt the same way, but he knew that if nothing was done, morale would collapse.

He decisively shrank his battle formation, minimizing the area where the Hu soldiers could be eliminated from the front as much as possible, and trying to limit the numerical advantage of the Hu army as much as possible by reducing the engagement area.
