The spirit of the Dihu cavalry disappeared under the powerful crossbow arrows of the Han army, and the slogan of defending the home and the country that had been shouted as loud as a mountain just now disappeared. Everyone was anxiously considering their own retreat. It is ordinary herdsmen, how to keep their meager property is their top priority. 25

However, the passion for killing the enemy disappeared in a bloody arrow rain, which began to make them feel a sense of fear. Many people turned their suspicious eyes to Yang Wanwan, why did he hide behind during the attack? After the frenzy was ruthlessly crushed by the Han army's arrow rain, they began to calm down.

But this was within Yang Wanwan's expectation. He knew that the fighting spirit of the Di people would fade easily, and they would fight desperately against the Han army only if they took their family members as hostages.

Yang Wanwan pointed his sword at the endless tents behind him, and shouted, "Your wives, daughters, and parents are behind. If you don't work hard, who will protect your wives and daughters? They will become slaves of the Han people, and your parents will be killed." , your wives are humiliated, your children are betrayed, and your heads are the fruits of the enemy's war, hanging on tall bamboo poles."

Yang Wanwan's hoarse voice echoed on the grassland. Every word he said deeply touched the Dihu cavalry, and made their fighting spirit that had just faded rekindle again.

Tens of thousands of cavalry raised their swords and shouted: "Never retreat!"

Yang Wanwan swung his knife again and shouted: "For the honor of the grassland, defeat them and kill the Han army!"

"Kill the Han army!"

Tens of thousands of people shouted, war horses galloped, tens of thousands of cavalry came roaring like dark clouds under the strong wind, the ground was shaking, and the grassland was crying helplessly.

.........

Liu Jing immediately stood on a low grass hill, looking coldly at the overwhelming Dihu cavalry, with a cruel smile on his face.

"The bow and crossbow troops retreat, and the heavy armored infantry prepare!"

The [-] bow and crossbow troops retreated like a tide, as if a curtain had been pulled back, revealing the [-] heavy armored infantry neatly lined up behind them. They were arranged in eight factions, with a thousand heavy armored infantry in a row.

They are all tall and powerful, holding a two-foot-long saber in their hands, wearing heavy armor that gleamed blue light, and only a pair of unusually indifferent eyes on their faces, like a group of hunters, coldly staring at the fallen man. trap prey. 13

Behind the [-] heavy armored infantry, there are [-] spearmen, each holding a sharp spear one foot five feet long, arranged in three huge square formations. Their chief general Wei Yan has conveyed the order of the King of Han, Outflank the Dihu cavalry from behind to prevent them from escaping.

"Boom!" The drum sounded slowly and powerfully, "Boom! Boom!" Accompanied by the sound of the heavy drum, the heavy armored infantry approached the Dihu cavalry cavalry who came suddenly, and each step was so shocking. The spirit of the soul, every step is so imposing.

At this time, Yang Wanwan, one of Dihu's cavalrymen, shouted, "Rush forward!"

The Dihu cavalry suddenly accelerated. They knew that only by killing the enemy could they have any hope of survival. The instinct of protecting their families made them desperate. However, the heavy armored infantry remained as motionless as a mountain.

Liu Hu was wearing heavy armor, holding a saber that was about [-] zhang [-] feet long in his hand. Only his eyes were exposed from his whole body, and they cast a cold gaze. Eight thousand heavy armored infantry stood in line behind him.

The 8000 heavy armored infantry formed a row of [-] soldiers, a total of [-] rows, one zhang apart, and all of them had put on heavy armor. The [-] soldiers lined up neatly, like an iron wall, with a murderous aura.

The speed of the Dihu cavalry was getting faster and faster, the sound of horseshoes was like thunder, and the momentum was like a stormy sea, destroying everything and invincible everything, rushing towards the densely defending Han soldiers with an unstoppable violence.

The first three rows of heavy armored infantrymen of the Han army squatted together and gathered tightly. The hilt of the horse sword was inserted into the ground, and three thousand long blades stabbed obliquely in front, like a dense forest of swords.

The stormy cavalry rushed to the front of the Han army. The cavalry's tactic was to break through the enemy's formation and enter the enemy's hinterland.

But what they saw was a long blade gleaming with cold light, and the sharp spikes were aimed at their chests. The cavalry in front were too late to stop, and they shouted in horror, and many people closed their eyes.

The blood mist rose suddenly, and the screams resounded across the grassland. The powerful impact of the Dihu cavalry did not penetrate into the formation of the Han army, but was blocked by three thousand sharp sabers. Nearly three thousand cavalry paid a terrible price. They were stabbed Wear it on the sharp edge.

Liu Hu raised his saber high, and the eight thousand heavy armored infantry simultaneously let out an earth-shattering roar: "Kill—"

With a wave of Liu Hu's chopping saber, eight thousand heavy armored soldiers launched an offensive, advancing like a wall, dignified like a mountain, and killed the overwhelming Dihu cavalry step by step.

The Dihu cavalry also waved their spears and stabbed at the heavy armored infantry. Yang Da, the nephew of Yang Wanwan, took the lead.

The leader of the heavy armored infantry was General Liu Hu. With a loud shout, he slashed down with a ferocious saber, and immediately split Yang Dalian and his horse in half, blood spattering and viscera flowing.

The heavy armored infantry swung their long knives and advanced step by step. The light and blood of the knives slashed or stabbed, and they were invincible. The locusts caused heavy casualties to them. The wounded and fallen Dihu cavalry knelt down and begged on the ground, but they were still chopped into pieces by the heavy armored infantry who lined up. The blood flowed into rivers, and the corpses were piled up. The grassland became a human slaughter. field.

On the grassy hill, Liu Jing rode on a horse and watched the massacre on the grassland expressionlessly. The setting sun was like blood, and the afterglow dyed the grassland red. Liu Jing was not moved at all, Wang Ping beside him couldn't bear it anymore, and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Highness, it's better to accept their surrender!"

Liu Jing glanced at him coldly, Wang Ping fell silent and dared not speak.

"Pass my order, the cavalry attack!"

.......

A rocket shot high into the sky, drawing a long line of black smoke. This was an order to attack. Behind a grassy hill more than a dozen miles away, eight thousand cavalrymen of the Han army had already assembled and stood by. When the black smoke streaked across the sky, Ma Chao shouted: "Attack!"

Eight thousand cavalry burst into a cry at the same time, their horses galloped, their spears flashed, and they rushed towards the Di people's camp. The Di people's camp was ten miles away, with less than three thousand cavalry guards. At that time, the whole camp was like a nest being exploded. The women ran desperately with their children in their arms, the old man knelt on the ground and prayed to the heavens, and more people hid in the tents, curled up in the corners and shivered.

The three thousand Di people's cavalry went up to the battle and collided with the Han cavalry in an instant. , The horses galloped, the big tent rolled, the cavalry rushed all the way, caught up with the fleeing women and children, quickly surrounded them, and threatened them to return to the camp.

On the outside of the camp, Ma Chao led the Han cavalry to form a cavalry formation, and divided and killed the Dihu cavalry. The Han cavalry may not be as good as the opponent in riding skills, and they will be weaker than the opponent alone, but they have training. The formation is neat, and the combat effect is completely different when using collective strength to fight Dihu fiercely, not to mention that the Han army is far stronger than the opponent.

There were cries and pleadings from the camp one after another, and the cries shook the sky, making the Dihu cavalry have no desire to fight, and turned their horses around to run back to the camp, but they were surrounded by the Han cavalry. As fast as a thunderbolt, slashing with long knives, and bursting with blood, the Dihu cavalry suffered heavy casualties. They had no choice but to abandon their spears and surrender

It was almost dusk, and the fierce battle on the main battlefield in the distance reached a fever pitch. Horns whimpered, horses neighed, long knives clanked, horseshoes sounded like thunder, sabers slashed, blood mist filled the air, heads rolled everywhere, limbs and arms were broken, The grasslands were piled up, and the eight thousand heavy armored infantry advanced layer by layer like a copper wall and iron wall, killing the Dihu people on their backs and retreating steadily, while the [-] spear troops formed three large formations and surrounded them from behind, cutting off the escape of the Dihu cavalry the way home.

Dihu cavalry had more than 1 dead and injured, their morale was low, and defeat was evident. Yang Wanwan was in a hurry in the ranks. No matter how much he shouted, it was useless. The shouts on the battlefield had already drowned out his hoarse voice. .

At this moment, a cavalry rushed up and reported with tears: "Your Majesty, the cavalry of the Han army entered our camp. Our guards suffered heavy casualties and could not hold back."

Yang Wanwan was stunned as if struck by lightning. His three young sons were all in the camp. Yang Wanwan yelled like crazy, turned his horse's head and fled back. Hundreds of guards and cavalry followed him. Fleeing, they fled from the seam between the two spear phalanxes in the southwest corner, and fled to the camp of the Di people.

But after only running for a few miles, a cavalry force of 3000 men came head-on, and the leading general was Ma Chao. They were about to attack the Dihu cavalry from behind, but they happened to meet Yang Wanwan. Ma Chao recognized Yang Wanwan at a glance and shouted With a voice, "Hu Chief, let's go!"

He rode his horse and rushed forward, stabbing at him with a gun. Yang Wanwan knew Ma Chao, and he was frightened out of his wits. Yang Wanwan shouted: "Ma Dudu, because of our friendship in the past, please spare my life!"

Ma Chao sneered, "Go and discuss with Hades!"

He pierced Yang Wanwan's vest with one shot. Yang Wanwan was killed when he was picked off his horse. Ma Chao stepped forward and cut off his head, and ordered someone to take Yang Wanwan's Jade Dragon BMW. The lord was dead, and they had no intention of fighting, so they fled in all directions, but they were surrounded by the cavalry of the Han army. Under a dense arrow rain, most of the Dihu cavalry were killed and injured, and the remaining dozens were so frightened that they dismounted and surrendered.

At this time, the news that the Diren camp was attacked by the Han army had spread all over the battlefield. The news was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and the last morale of the Dihu cavalry quickly collapsed. Surrounded by the Spear Army and the Sword and Shield Army, there was nowhere to go, and the arrows from the periphery continued to shoot, causing heavy casualties to the Dihu cavalry, and the morale of the army completely collapsed.

At this time, Liu Jing issued an order to end the battle: "Those who surrender will not die, and those who resist will be killed!"

In the shouts of the Han army urging officials to surrender, the desperate Dihu cavalry dismounted and knelt down and surrendered. More than a thousand Dihu who were unwilling to surrender and were about to break out were also surrounded by thousands of heavy armored infantry and killed them all. .
