After being under Murong Xianbei's hands for so many days, these refugees seemed to be living in hell.
He only had a little food every day, and he had to act as a human shield to block the arrows of the attacking infantry. There were originally nearly 10,000 refugees, but two to three thousand were shot to death, and several hundred starved to death due to lack of food.
Every day, people starve to death from exhaustion.
After being starved to the limit, they would steal corpses and eat people. Hundreds of Murong Xianbei cavalry had already begun to eat people. They used grain as fodder to feed their horses, and they themselves threw the shot dead refugees into the pot.
Murong Xianbei did not regard the Han people as the same race at all, and he had no burden at all in cannibalizing people.
But the young men trained by them are all normal people. Normal people will not eat people like them and treat them as nothing.
All the infantry became lifeless, without much life.
"General, Wang Jing's troops are in front! There are less than a hundred cavalry, and the rest are infantry!"
Murong's Central Army.
Murong Yun and General Zhang Tai followed with dozens of cavalry, infantry, and refugees. It was Tao Ren who commanded the cavalry just now.
After Murong Yun arrived with his people, Tao Ren immediately stepped forward.
"Less than a hundred cavalry?"
Murong Yun and Zhang Tai stepped forward and looked towards the hillside in the distance. They saw the infantry and carriages camped on the hillside, as well as the sparse war horses beside the carriages.
"I heard that Wang Jing just captured the East Lake Water Village not long ago and his troops increased greatly. Now it seems that the rumors are indeed correct!"
"But no matter how many infantry he has, they can't stop our Murong clan's cavalry!"
Zhang Tai said.
When Murong Yun heard the word cavalry, and then saw nearly a hundred war horses in the distance, his expression suddenly became distorted.
These war horses all belong to him!
Wang Jing, a traitor with no martial ethics, pounced on his branch division and bit him forcefully. As a result, the morale and combat effectiveness of Murong's cavalry were greatly reduced.
Otherwise, Murong's 500 elite soldiers would be able to forcefully invade the beggar army's city even if they dismounted and fought on foot.
Instead of losing blood in constant fighting like before.
"General Zhang is right. The infantry of the Han people are just sheep. No matter how many they gather, they are just the prey of wolves! General, please let me be the vanguard when the war begins!"
"I want these lambs to know the consequences of angering the wolf!"
Tao Ren's mouth showed a ferocious look.
The wolf wants to eat the sheep!
If Wang Jing is defeated, Tao Ren vows to throw the opponent into a pot and eat him, and make his skull into a wine vessel.
When Murong Yun heard this, he calmed down. He turned around and asked, "General Zhang, what do you think of Wang Jing's troops? If there is a war, what are the chances of winning?"
Historically, Zhang Tai was a confidant of the powerful ministers of Northern Yan. He was talented in commanding troops and did not listen to Murong Yun's orders at all. However, after coming to the new world, he could only serve under Murong Yun.
There is no need to mention the past things. Murong Yun truly regarded Zhang Tai as his confidant and trusted him very much.
The level of trust is still higher than that of Taoren and Liban.
Murong Yun knew that Zhang Tai was a talented general, while Tao Ren was just a warrior in battle.
"The opponent's infantry doesn't seem to be in strict formation. Wang Jinggang just surrendered the East Lake water thieves. He probably doesn't have time to train. The riding skills of the cavalry are also average!"
"However, the Wugang chariots he brought form a military formation, which can withstand cavalry fire. If you want to break the military formation, you need cavalry to constantly pull the opponent's formation, and you also need infantry to rush into the formation... As for the chance of winning, there are hundreds of cavalry in hand. , How can our army fail?"
Zhang Tai is very confident.
He recognized the "Wugang Car" on the opposite side, but the Wugang Car was already outdated.
As he said, as long as the light cavalry continued to project and pull the formation on both wings, the Wugang chariot could only block the front, but the left and right wings could not protect it.
As long as the formation is spread apart, the cavalry can take advantage of the opportunity and directly break through the infantry's battle formation.
"Please give the order, General!"
After Zhang Tai finished speaking, he and Tao Ren turned their attention to Murong Yun.
Murong Yun hesitated for a moment.
Then he pulled out the long sword with a swish sound, "You're just a lowly slave, how dare you offend our army, you will be trampled, captured and killed today, with the revenge of killing the people of the Blood Kingdom!"
"Zhang Tai, you command the infantry for a frontal assault. Tao Ren, I will join you and three hundred cavalry to pull the enemy's formation!"
"As you command!"
Zhang Tai and Tao Ren were shocked, and immediately loudly received their orders, and each went to the army to prepare for command.
Woo!
The horn sounded again.
Zhang Tai led a dozen personal guards, infantry and thousands of refugees to move forward. Almost all the old and weak among the refugees died, and the rest were all men and women.
They were in ragged clothes and were driven numbly, charging towards the battle formation on the slope in the distance.
Whether it's a siege or a field battle.
Murong Xianbei always likes to coerce the refugees and let them attack the enemy formation first. It would be best if they can shake up the enemy formation. They can take advantage of the situation and charge in with very little loss.
If the formation cannot be shaken, use them to block arrows and shake the enemy's morale.
after all! When the Han people see the common people rushing into battle, there will always be some who can't bear it and shake their morale. As long as there is a flaw, Murong's cavalry can take advantage of it.
"Again, they're holding the refugees hostage!"
The smile on Wang Jing's face disappeared, and he frowned and looked forward.
Seeing the numb expressions of those people who were lifeless, the murderous intention in his heart gathered, like lava, ready to burst out at any time.
kill!
Murong's infantry on the opposite side began to roar, driving the refugees in front to speed up. In the eyes of those refugees, there was numbness with a hint of relief. Death was the best relief for them.
"Mu Hong, lead the cavalry behind and be ready to attack at any time!"
"The others are ready to meet the enemy!"
Wang Jing threw away the riding crop in his hand, took the spear from the guard beside him, sat on the horse, and looked forward calmly. He was also ready to charge personally.
He had already used insight to observe the opposite side. Murong had two third-level enemies and one second-level one.
Among them, Murong Yun's life aura was shrouded in a faint purple aura. This purple energy is the same as the aura of life, like the fluctuations of the tide.
This is Murong Yun's luck in this world, and it is also his luck in history that he can create Beiyan!
It's just that when he was the emperor, he was just a puppet, and his real strength was only slightly stronger than the Mai Iron Staff.
At this time, Mai Tiezhang went to the van array to take command.
He is the infantry deputy Qianhu and the actual commander of the infantry formation. As for Wang Jing, he needs to be in charge of the overall situation and not be distracted.
In the big formation.
In addition to Mai Tiezhang, Mu Chun and Chen Da were also there.
"Archers prepare!"
Mai Tiezhang shouted, his eyes were cold and hard as he looked at the many refugees attacking the military formation without any hesitation or pity.
On the battlefield, any mercy or hesitation will kill someone!
This is his sincere realization.
On the contrary, Mu Chun and Chen Da, who often robbed and killed people, had a hint of unbearability in their eyes at this time, but they did not need to command, they only needed to follow orders.
When the refugee men and women finally approached the battle formation.
Mai Tiezhang suddenly pulled out the ring-shou knife and shouted in a hissing voice: "Fire the arrow!"
Give the order.
The archers behind the car formation fired one after another, and the arrows arced in mid-air, then fell from the sky and pierced the ragged bodies of the refugees.
