"Damn! What went wrong?" Liu Wenlong couldn't figure it out!
When the troops came out of Pianguan, Huerzan personally led an army of 300,000 to fight with him. The result! Huerzan was defeated and retreated fifty miles at the cost of losing more than 50,000 troops and horses in three days. Why is it such a seamless plan? At such a time, you will be in such a situation.
The more I thought about it, the more depressed and scared I became. Only at this time, there was only one situation that could be explained clearly. That was because there was a problem within the Wu Kingdom. Some ministers secretly communicated with the Xiongnu and sold the entire Dawu intelligence to the enemy for glory.
"Tear!"
"General!" Wei Jiyan came galloping on his horse and stood beside Liu Wenlong and dismounted!
Looking at his face, he was quite anxious.
"Old Wei! Why are you so panicked?" Liu Wenlong asked Zou Zhe with an eyebrow.
actually! There is a worse situation at this time, and that is military morale! If the morale of the army is unstable, the army is likely to collapse. Especially for such a huge army, it is almost difficult to increase its momentum.
Wei Chi said: "General! I don't know that bastard is spreading rumors in the army, saying that our army is surrounded by the Huns. At this time! The morale of the army is unstable, and the hearts of the soldiers are floating. If we don't come up with a plan, I'm afraid! We won't need the Huns to fight. Come, our army will be automatically dispersed."
yes!
Plan for today! Defending in place can only wait for death.
"Come here! Send the generals of chariots and cavalry to come and see me." Liu Wenlong said.
Chariot and Cavalry General: Fang Deng, a second-rank important position, and the same rank as the Guard General Wei Delay.
back!
Fang Deng received the summons and did not dare to delay. He immediately came to see Liu Wenlong.
After discussion, the three decided to divide their forces to break out.
Although dividing the troops to break through would make it easier for the enemy to defeat them one by one, Huerzan's ultimate goal was nothing more than Liu Wenlong's life. Plan for today! We have to save our strength and find a way to return to Pianguan or Ningwuguan, otherwise! Hulda occupied the rear route, cut off supplies, and could exhaust the military force even with light consumption.
Under the power, Liu Wenlong decided to lead an army of 100,000 to break out to the west. To the west is where Prince Huerkang of the Liao Dynasty is stationed, with an army of 300,000 troops.
And because of this, Liu Wenlong took the risk to break out from now on. after all! The head of General Liu Wenlong of the Kingdom of Wu was of great value.
In the eyes of Emperor Huerzan of the Liao Dynasty, the person who truly made Dawu undefeated was Liu Wenlong, and the second was Wei Chiyan. As long as Liu Wenlong is captured, half of Dawu will be wiped out. Even if Dawu can still assemble an army of one million, Huerzan may not take it seriously.
The generals of Wei, Wei Daiyan, and generals of chariots and cavalry, led by Jun Jun, led an army of 170,000 to break out from the northeast and attack the Hu and Qiang armies with all their strength.
Since the Hu people and Qiang people were maimed by the Huns half a year ago, the two tribes have only one hundred thousand soldiers and horses at most. If they rush around to gather more, the Hu people and Qiang people who claim to have 150,000 soldiers and horses The army is nothing more than a group of soldiers without fighting ability.
If you look for a breakthrough here, you must break it with one attack.
"Catapult, fireball projection, release!"
Huerzan was in a military formation, and two hundred catapults were launching at the same time. The fireballs were like cannonballs, hitting the ground resolutely.
Facing the sky full of fireballs, Dawu's army of more than 300,000 people was stunned for an instant.
boom!
When the fireball hit the ground, countless military troops were scorched by the fire. The flammable materials on the fireball even stuck to their bodies, and the fire directly ignited their clothes. Countless soldiers had no time to take off their heavy clothes and were burned alive by the fire.
Although the power of the fireball is not as powerful as Dongfang Yu, Beiliang's Frankie Cannon, Tiger Crouching Cannon, and Hongyi Cannon, it is still a frightening thing in the army. Once it is touched by this thing, it will either die or be injured, especially if the fireball coated with kerosene touches the soldier, it is almost a dead end.
Catapults are divided into two categories, large catapults and small catapults.
The effective range of a large catapult is generally 210 meters; that of a small catapult is about 130 meters.
The ancient trebuchet can rotate in a semicircle, and its range is parabolic, usually about 200 to 300 meters. The trebuchet generally requires three people to operate, one to coil the rope, one to release the stone, and one to control the launch.
A heavy trebuchet can project objects weighing about half a ton. Modern experiments show that when it is used to project objects weighing more than 100 kilograms, the range can reach about 260 meters.
The front army suffered a disaster. They were defeated like a mountain. They dropped their weapons and retreated, even! More soldiers took off their clothes in order to extinguish the fire on themselves. Not even the armor was left behind.
And now! The Xiongnu's 50,000 cavalry and archer army outflanked them from the side. On the grassland, the Xiongnu cavalry archer was a famous mobile gunner. Many powerful soldiers were killed by sharp arrows.
"The little Hun cavalry dares to block my way!"
Liu Wenlong tore the sword from his waist and pulled it out. The blade of the sword was shining brightly, and the blade pointed directly at the Huns cavalry.
"Follow me and kill!"
"kill!"
The general's influence is still huge, even though there are many timid people in the army. But the Dingzhou Army led by Song Yi was extremely turbulent.
After a fight, a bloody path was opened directly on the west side.
"Throw the spear!" Song Yi drank.
"Boohoo!"
Immediately, the 20,000 Dingzhou troops behind him threw the spears in their hands. Although the Huns' cavalry archers were maneuverable and their aim was accurate, they were very close to the armed forces. Although a large number of the Huns' cavalry archers were under heavy fire, they were miserable. They had nowhere to hide. Even their heads were shot. Wear it.
Both men and horses were trampled to the ground.
"Draw your sword! Form your shield!"
The next second, under Song Yi's shrewd command, the shield and sword merged into one, and the entire formation quickly transformed into defense.
in! The archers at the rear also retracted behind their shields, and the five thousand archers fired towards the Hun cavalry blocking the front.
"Okay! This guy Song Yi is as brave as before! It was not in vain that I promoted him to Dingzhou." Liu Wenlong saw the west side, and under the leadership of Song Yi, he quickly fought his way out.
Liu Wenlong immediately led his army and charged out from the west. With tens of thousands of troops and the crossbowmen clearing the way, even if the Huns resisted with tens of thousands of troops, they would still suffer a lot of losses.
certainly! The biggest loss was still suffered by the armed forces. The mobility and role of the Huns' cavalry and archers subverted the military's understanding and caused considerable losses to the armed forces.
Wei Chiyan and Fang Deng, on the other hand, fought hard from the northeast.
The Hu people, the Qiang people, and other tribes all dared to resist. They all pretended to show off in order to preserve their strength.
"Trash! These trash!" Seeing that Wei Chiyan and Fang Deng were killed so easily. Huerzan couldn't help but cursed.
