Chapter 922 The Armageddon(2/2)
Eighty thousand cavalrymen, with high morale and loud killing sounds, swept over the horizon like a rolling black flood.
Thousands of horses galloped, flying sand and rocks covered the sky and blocked the sun.
The war drums beat and the earth trembles...
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
…
Eighty thousand crusaders formed a huge battle formation and surrounded the Dark Forest.
According to intelligence, the number of such Huns cavalry in the Dark Forest is between 30,000 and 50,000. Whether it is 30,000 or 50,000, the Crusaders have an absolute advantage in numbers.
In addition, the Crusaders have a very obvious advantage - experience.
During the more than a year of conquests in the north and south, every Crusader cavalry went through many hardships and became an extremely high-quality soldier. However, although the Huns had fought against the Han Empire in the past few years, they were defeated all the way.
, has never won a victory, and there is a huge gap between them and the Crusaders in terms of combat experience and courage.
However, the Crusaders did not expect that the courage of an army comes from the generals who lead the troops.
As the saying goes, if a soldier is raging, a general will be raging in a nest.
Now, 50,000 Huns are led by Zhou Sen, and Zhou Sen, in the hearts of the Huns, is beyond the existence of God. You know, even the king of martial arts in the Xiongnu prairie died under Zhou Sen's long sword.
.
Not only did General Gore not expect that Zhou Sen would appear from Zhenshuiguan in Wuchao City to lead tens of thousands of Huns cavalry, but he also did not expect that hundreds of red bulls would participate in the battle.
The ground trembled.
Five hundred red bulls lined up in a row, like a thick red line moving at high speed in the wilderness. Behind them, thousands of Huns cavalry raised their sabers high and shouted...
…
When the red tide surged on the horizon, the Crusaders thought it was the light reflected from the Hun cavalry bathed in the morning glow. However, they soon discovered that it was not the morning glow, but red bulls with muscles as strong as stones.
The Crusaders knew nothing about the Red Bull, but the Red Bull's majestic body like a hill and its extremely aggressive horns clearly told them that these giant blood-red bulls were definitely not easy to mess with.
Fooled!
Seeing the fierce red bulls running in a row, General Gore was shocked. At this moment, he understood that he had been fooled. The other party had been hiding in the dark forest and waiting to lure them to the bait.
People like Gore immediately realized that they had fallen into a carefully laid trap.
The current situation is extremely dangerous. Once the Crusaders' battle formation is broken up by those tyrannical red bulls, a chain reaction will inevitably occur. The entire army formation is likely to avalanche, and the Huns' army that followed the cattle will become Crusaders.
nightmare.
Seeing the red bulls rushing over in a row, Gore gritted his teeth, waved his sword sharply, and roared loudly.
In Gore's roar, dozens of cavalry behind him moved, shooting at the Red Bull like an arrow from the string.
These dozens of people were the masters who accompanied the Crusaders. They mainly killed the opponent's powerful generals, and now, they had to tear a hole in the herd.
As long as the cattle are killed, the group's problems will be solved.
kill!
kill!
kill!
…
A big man with a huge spear in his hand galloped on horseback. When he was less than thirty feet away from the red bull, he suddenly jumped up, thrust the giant spear in his hand in the air, let out a thrilling whistling sound, and stabbed a red bull head-on.
…
Duke the pitcher.
Seeing the big man rushing over first, the crusaders behind him let out earth-shattering cheers.
This man with a giant spear has a great background. He is a Duke in the Kingdom of Heaven. He is born with supernatural powers. A giant spear weighs hundreds of kilograms. He can hit the target with a hundred hits. He has the courage to be invincible.
A strong bull broke out from the herd and rushed towards the Duke, the pitcher. The bull was extremely eye-catching among the herd.
Every time the blood-red bull ran, the ground shook, which was thrilling.
"Zhou Sen is here!"
Just when the bull and the magic pitcher Duke were less than ten feet away, suddenly, there was a loud shout, and a young man with flying long hair jumped out of the bull's belly, and a sharp long sword with a severed head drew a bright light in the air.
Like a bolt from the blue.
Crazy murderous aura surged in the air.
The Duke, the great pitcher, straightened his arms, and the tip of his spear actually rubbed against the air due to its speed, causing a blazing flame to rise.
Long hair flying.
That sharp thunderbolt struck head-on.
Peng!
There was a muffled sound, and a circle of ripples seemed to spread in the air, forming a fierce wind, like thousands of blades scraping across the face.
The magic pitcher Duke flew out.
At this moment, an astonishing scene appeared. The strong bull actually accelerated and ran wildly, catching up with the Duke of the pitcher who was flying upside down in the air. His limbs suddenly jumped, and the huge body flew into the air. The sharp horns flew straight
Inserted into the chest of the great pitcher Duke.
The body of Duke the Great Pitcher was still hanging on the bull's horns. The bull's head just shook slightly. The body of Duke The Great Pitcher left and fell into pieces, with rain of blood flying...
Five hundred red bulls ran headlong into the Crusaders.
The powerful body of Red Bull was not afraid of swords and guns at all. With the impact of its huge body, the 80,000 Crusaders were like plowing the ground. In an instant, people were turned upside down and screamed in agony.
The death of the Duke the Divine Pitcher boosted the morale of the cavalry in Wuchao City. Amidst the shouts of killing, the 50,000 cavalrymen charged in along with the 500 red bulls, chopping vegetables and melons along the way, and they were invincible.
At the same time, the Crusaders were defeated across the board.
It is worth mentioning here that the Crusaders did not really collapse at the first touch. They also defended to the death. However, the Red Bull was not something ordinary human soldiers could compete with. In this kind of melee, the Red Bull's huge and invulnerable body was an out-and-out killing machine.
.
Rows and rows of Crusader cavalry fell. In just a few breaths, the ground was already covered with rivers of blood and mountains of corpses.
The 50,000 Huns cavalry, who had already been fighting for a long time, poured into the Crusaders like a torrent of steel and launched an unbridled killing spree.
The Red Bull rushed into the crowd like a meat grinder, destroying everything. In an instant, the Crusaders, who had been panicked because of the murder of the great pitcher Duke, began to collapse. They turned around and ran backwards. This time, they ran with the Crusaders charging behind.
The cavalry collided with each other, and for a moment, they were overturned.
The army was defeated like a mountain.
Zhou Sen and Shan Yushen took the lead in charging into the battle and advanced with great victory.
Seeing Zhou Sen rushing towards him, the frightened General Gore knew that the situation was over and left under the protection of a group of guards.
Gore originally wanted to hold on, but there were no positional defense facilities here at all, and wars often do not rely on human willpower.
When Gore retreated and the Chinese army moved, many generals immediately lost their fighting spirit and began to flee. The soldiers without their generals were like headless flies crowded together and running backwards. However, their battle formation was in chaos.
They restrained each other, either stepping under the iron hooves of the red bull or dying under the sharp knife. In the air, broken limbs and broken arms flew across the sky, the sky was filled with blood mist, and the strong smell of blood filled every inch of the wasteland...
…
The defeat was just the beginning.
When General Gore hurriedly retreated to regroup, the Crusader cavalry behind them was defeated in front of them and scrambled to escape. This run was out of control, and the entire Crusader cavalry formation immediately collapsed.
The wasteland was a mess, with cries and screams everywhere.
After the unbridled ravages of the Red Bull herd, every Crusader cavalry became frightened. They had no idea that after leaving the edge of the Dark Forest, five hundred Red Bulls retreated into the Dark Forest.
The 50,000 Xiongnu cavalry soldiers divided into several groups and pursued the victory with high morale. They pursued for dozens of miles until they reached the foot of Wuchao City, killing as many as 50,000 enemy troops and capturing more than 20,000 prisoners.
From Wuchao City to the edge of the Dark Forest, there are discarded armors, swords, and bloody corpses everywhere.
Eighty thousand Crusader cavalry disappeared into thin air. They were like frightened birds, desperately fleeing in the wilderness.
At the end of the battle, there were corpses of Crusaders along the way. The corpses piled up like mountains, with feathers everywhere...
It is worth mentioning here that the defenders of Wuchao City also made great contributions.
When the Crusaders were defeated near Wuchao City, thousands of Huns cavalry shouted Zhou Sen's name, which excited Wuchao City. General Wu Yuan ordered that Jingua Tianjin personally led 100,000 infantry, which was almost overwhelming.
He went out and used the human sea tactic to hunt the Crusaders in the wilderness. At this time, the 30,000 rangers originally stationed outside Wuchao City were restrained by the Lu Axe of the Tanbao Barracks...
The folk from Wuchao City helped bury the corpses and dragged the corpses to the grassland in horse-drawn carriages. They dug huge pits on the grassland and worked for half a month. Some of the corpses were stinking before they were able to finish burying the corpses.
In this war that lasted for more than a year, the Han Empire finally won a victory, and this victory became a turning point for the entire Han Empire. Of course, some historians believe that the Battle of Zhenshuiguan was the decisive battle of the Han Empire.
The real turning point of the empire, these are all things for later...
