The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1257
Murongxu couldn't help being a little dazed. Although the three Xianbei cavalry were only remnants, those who survived to this day must be the elite of the tribe. There is no reason why the cavalry should not have the upper hand when attacking the infantry.

But the Xianbei cavalry plus the Goguryeo cavalry, no matter what kind of attack they launched, they just couldn't break through the defense line of the Han army. The defense of the Han army infantry is a bit ridiculously high, right?

Murong Xin's complexion became very ugly. He proposed the plan of attacking halfway, and he also participated in the specific arrangement and implementation. He thought that he could surely win, but under the violent attack of the Xianbei and Goguryeo coalition forces, Han The army's infantry of only 4 to [-] miraculously withstood such a fierce offensive.

The longer the battle dragged on, the more unfavorable the situation was for the Xianbei and Goguryeo people. The rafts of the Han army shuttled back and forth on the river, transporting the Han army troops to the east bank of the Liao River time and time again. Basically, all the infantry of the Han army had landed. The cavalry units will cross the river next, and once the cavalry units of the Han army are put on the battlefield, the situation will soon be reversed.

"Is it because of the muddy ground that the cavalry's attack speed cannot be increased?" Murong Tuyuhun seemed to have seen the reason for the Xianbei cavalry's weak attack, so he asked Murongxin.

It was only then that Murong Xin suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Xianbei and Goguryeo invested so many cavalry, but they were still unable to break through the defense line of the Han infantry. The Xianbei cavalry continued to trample, and the entire riverside area almost became a piece of mud. When the cavalry marched, their speed was naturally greatly reduced.

The powerful attack power of the cavalry comes from speed. The powerful inertial impact force is the magic weapon of the cavalry, and once it slows down, its power will be greatly reduced. Coupled with the tenacious defense of the Han army, the Xianbei cavalry wants to break through the defense line of the Han army. It becomes much more difficult.

Murong Xin patted his head in frustration, he had calculated everything, he missed this point, no wonder the attack was weak, this was the reason, he only focused on the battle, ignoring the influence of the terrain.

However, after discovering the reason, Murong Xin was still at a loss, because the geographical factors on this battlefield could not be changed according to his will, and the road became more and more muddy, and some horses could be trapped in the quagmire. No matter how much the fight continues, the half-strike plan will become a joke.

Murong Xin hastened to discuss with Suo Du. Suo Du was extremely excited at the beginning, and led his troops to charge all the way, but later, the repeated attacks failed, which made Suo Du discouraged a lot. At first, he didn't pay attention to the road. As for the muddy problem, I thought it was no big deal to step on the mud. Now that Murong Xin said it, Suo Du also understood that the main reason for the disadvantageous attack was here.

But how to solve this problem, there must be too little time to fill the road. Now that the Han army is constantly killing across the river, and the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, that will allow you to build the road slowly.

In the end, Duan Qizhen proposed to use the whole army to attack the Han army, putting all his eggs in one basket, and relying on the superiority of numbers to crush the Han army. Now that the situation is urgent, they are no longer allowed to attack wave after wave. Open the defense line of the Han army, and when the cavalry of the Han army kills them, it is hard to say who will die.

Suo Dou immediately agreed to Duan Qizhen's suggestion. The advantage that Goguryeo now has is only the advantage of numbers. Instead of attacking in turn, it is better to attack with all its strength and take advantage of the crowd tactics to completely defeat the Han army. Driven into the river.

It was already the last attack of the Koreans, and all the cavalry and infantry pressed up, densely packed, layer upon layer, completely covering the wilderness on the east bank of the Liao River.

However, even if the Goguryeo people are attacking like a tide, the defense line of the Han army is still immobile. The incomparable line of defense blocked the Goguryeo and Xianbei people from the ferry.

At this moment, the Goguryeo people rushed forward frantically as if their eyes were red, and all the people were thrown into the attack.At this moment, suddenly from the northeast, a cavalry rushed out towards Goguryeo's rear team.

At this moment, all the Goguryeo people's attention was on the front, and they didn't even notice that a cavalry of the Han army would appear on the rear flank. The formation was in chaos, and the tiger cavalry army rushed all the way, cutting through the waves, invincible. .

Suo Du, Murong Xin, Duan Qizhen and others were all shocked when they learned that the rear team was attacked by the Han army. They never expected that a cavalry from the Han army would bypass Liaoshui and come to them The attack was launched from behind. It seems that this was a premeditated action by the Han army, and their plan to attack halfway was already seen through by others.

With the arrival of the Tiger Cavalry Army, the Han Army immediately launched a full-scale counterattack.

At this time, most of the White Tiger Army had crossed the river and were gathering on the east bank to wait for orders. Some of the Xuanwu Army had also crossed the Liao River, and most of them were crossing the river.The attack of the Tiger Cavalry Army was the signal of the general offensive. The Han Army no longer needed to wait for the Xuanwu Army to complete the crossing of the river.

Cooperating with the actions of the Tiger Cavalry Army and the White Tiger Army on the east and west sides, Wudang Fei Army, Yang'an Army, and Tiger Army Army also launched a full-line counterattack. After a counterattack, everyone's morale was high and their fighting spirit was high, and they rushed towards the Goguryeo team.

The two sides fought hand in hand, and the killing was so dark.

The Goguryeo people were attacked from the front and back, and their formation was thrown into chaos. They could not resist the enemy quickly, and many people began to flee wildly, fleeing from this battlefield.

In terms of bravery, Goguryeo is not inferior to the Xiongnu Xianbei at all, but like the Xiongnu Xianbei, they are also good at fighting with the wind. Once they fight smoothly, they will fight crazy and invincible. It is the easiest to collapse. After one escapes, it will soon cause a group of people to flee, and later on, the whole team will flee, fleeing desperately.

Suo couldn't help being furious. Although the Goguryeo army was flanked by the Han army, it was still too early to tell the outcome. As long as the Goguryeo army is in good shape and can maintain sufficient combat effectiveness, it may not be impossible to fight the Han army to the end. .

But at this moment, the Goguryeo people were defeated in one battle, and Suo Dou wanted to fight decisively, but no one cooperated with him. Seeing more and more deserters, Suo Dou was almost becoming a poor commander.
