Chapter 383 The Battle of Liangzhou (1)
Everyone was amused by this scene and threw Yi Jiandong behind his head for a moment. Just as everyone was laughing and laughing, they had already reached a dangerous distance very close to Tuyuhun. The loud and loud voice of the messenger came from the army: "The whole army stopped moving forward and rested on the spot for half an hour!"
Although Wei Hong, Cheng Chumo and others had extraordinary identities, they had to obey orders, tightly pull the reins of the horses, stop the mounts, and rest on the spot. In fact, it was mainly to let the war horses rest for a while. After all, they had been running out of force. If the war horses were exhausted when they charged later, it would be a big deal. Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the voice of the commander's commander sounded again: "The whole army obeyed the orders, Qin Huaiyu led three thousand cavalry to leave the army, and attacked the enemy from the right wing; Li Dejian led two thousand cavalry to attack the enemy from the left wing. The remaining soldiers and horses faced the enemy head-on, accelerated in turn, and attacked all the troops!"
After receiving the order, Qin Huaiyu and Li Dejian led their troops to leave the main force and galloped into two directions. Since they wanted to attack from both wings, the routes needed to operate were longer than the main force, so once they left the main force, they would advance at full speed. The main force changed from jogging to medium speed, and finally sprinted at full speed. When the main force's speed was just raised, a black and strong toothed run ran to Wei Hong and shouted at Wei Hong: "Sir, the general manager has an order to slow down, guard the rear with the general manager, and command the battle!"
Wei Hong was still wondering just now, thinking when Wei Zheng would call him to the rear. He couldn't really treat himself as a general and shoot him on the front line? Hearing Ya Qianlai's report, Wei Hong breathed a sigh of relief. He took a sword to speed up and circled around the side of the main force, then slowed down, turned his horse's head, and ran towards a phalanx of soldiers composed of a thousand people in the rear. When he arrived in front of him, he found that the tent had begun to be built on the scene. After all, Wei Zheng had to command the battle in the rear. A temporary command center is essential. As for the 1,000 people who stayed to guard the command center, although there were a few, it was a helpless move. After all, as the soul of the entire army, Wei Zheng must ensure that everything is foolproof and beware of the enemy's trick of "capturing the thief first".
Soon after the camp was built, the cavalry lined up on the periphery. Wei Hong tied the horses and came east to enter the commander's tent. There was only Wei Zheng in the commander's tent. At the door of the commander's tent, dozens of commanders were standing neatly, so that Wei Zheng's instructions could be conveyed to the battlefield ahead at any time.
Time passed by bit by bit. About half an hour later, the messengers on the battlefield in front returned, saying that the main force had already fought with the enemy, and the cavalry led by Qin Huaiyu also launched an attack from the right wing. Li Dejian's two thousand cavalry had not yet arrived. The nine thousand main cavalry facing the enemy headed completely tore the enemy formation during the first wave of charge, but rushed into the inside of the enemy. The cavalry led by Qin Huaiyu on the right was ambushed by the squat rope and suffered heavy losses.
After getting the news from the front, Wei Zheng frowned, looked at the strategic map of the Central Committee of the Sect, and after a moment of silence, he rushed to Wei Hong and asked: "Is this loss reasonable?"
Wei Hong stood on the other side of the strategic map and looked at Wei Zheng in a close manner. Although his face was very solemn, his tone was quite relaxed: "If you go back to the Ge Lao, this kind of loss is essential. After all, Tuyuhun is not a mud. Even without cavalry, he will never surrender. As for the tripping horse rope, it only had a certain effect on the right-wing Qin Huaiyu tribe. Although there were some losses, it could only play a one-time role and could not continue to play, which was not worth worrying about."
Upon hearing Wei Hong's remarks, Wei Zheng nodded worriedly, staring at the strategic map tightly, and no longer spoke. While Wei Hong and Wei Zheng were waiting for the rewards ahead, the battle ahead was already in a state of anxiety. The three thousand army led by Qin Huaiyu was ambushed by the tripper and horse rope and lost nearly 600 cavalry, which was a heavy loss. Because of the tripper and horse rope, the cavalry that charged at full speed had to slow down. The charge that should have been used could not reach its power, and was deeply surrounded by the enemy and supported it with great difficulty.
Compared with the tragic situation of Qin Huaiyu's army, Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin, who faced each other head-on, were much more relaxed and smooth. After the main force successfully turned the enemy camp into two, Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin led a large number of cavalry to fight back and forth in the enemy formation. Nine thousand cavalry killed 30,000 enemies in a hurry and exhausted to deal with it. Just when the enemy and us were in a difficult situation, the two thousand cavalry led by Li Dejian finally arrived at the battlefield and invaded from the left wing. However, because the enemy formation had been disrupted and soldiers were filled with both sides of the enemy and us, Li Dejian decisively gave up the charge and ordered his cavalry to form a long line of characters to launch a carpet-style attack on the enemy from the left wing.
In the Battle of Mazong Mountain, Qin Huaiyu was most seriously injured. If Wei Hong had not been temporarily rescued, he would have died. In this battle in Liangzhou, Qin Huaiyu was once again in the most dangerous situation among his brothers. A large number of enemy troops launched a counterattack against Qin Huaiyu's tribe, and one cavalry often had to deal with two to three people. This battle with few enemies and more is obviously unfavorable to the cavalry. In addition, the cavalry's mobility in the chaotic battlefield has weakened, making Qin Huaiyu's tribe even more disadvantageous.
"Where is the messenger!" Qin Huaiyu swung away the enemy's spear, pressed his body on the horse's back, and took a horse forward two steps, and suddenly swung his sword to chop over the enemy who was attacking him to the ground. When thirty cavalry surrounded Qin Huaiyu in the middle to prevent the enemy from getting closer to Qin Huaiyu, Qin Huaiyu called out the messenger loudly.
A thin little soldier rode a tall horse to Qin Huaiyu, clasped his fists and said, "What's the matter with the general calling me!"
Seeing that the messenger finally arrived, Qin Huaiyu breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at his dangerous subordinates, he did not dare to delay any further. He shouted at the messenger: "Transfer my orders to return to the general manager. Our troops have lost more than half of the enemy's counterattack. A large number of enemy troops are attacking our troops, and quickly ask the general manager to send more support!"
The messenger took the order to leave. Soon, he appeared in the command post in the rear, turned over and dismounted, ran with his legs, and went directly into the commander's tent without notice, knelt on one knee, and said with a sweat: "General Manager, General Qin's headquarters, has been surrounded and killed by the enemy's joint efforts. More than half of it has been lost. General Qin asked General Manager to send more support to the right wing!"
Hearing this, Wei Zheng suddenly stood up from the ground, his face shocked and said in disbelief: "How long has it been to fight? Qin Huaiyu's army has lost more than half? A total of 1,500 cavalrymen even dismounted their horses and stretched their necks to let the enemy cut one by one, and they would have to cut them for a while!" (To be continued...)
