Sweep the World

Chapter 1076: : Thank you for your cooperation

After two days of exposure, the soil on the ground has recovered its hardness, but it will not become muddy after a little trampling, and it will still become soft after repeated trampling.

   One after another horse hooves stepped heavily on them. When the horse hooves stepped up, a piece of mud was turned up, and the ground was also left with a horseshoe pit mark of about five or six centimeters.

Habibullah observes the two Han light cavalry on the left and right wings. They are far apart. Then there is a cloud of smoke and dust from the cavalry galloping. In fact, I don’t really see how many people there are and what equipment they are. Cavalry.

The Sassanian army met face-to-face with the Han army without knowing it. Fortunately, the terrain on this side is flat. The two sides saw each other far away. If the terrain is complicated, it should be the next moment when they see each other. It's time to fight.

   "Let the cavalry go out!" Habibullah is not so sure whether this Han army is equipped with firearms, and does not have much confidence in the organization of frontal defense: "The troops on the back line are better to pull away!"

  Habibullah is a high-level person who has never seen firearms showing off his power, but he knows from some channels how to face the Han army with firearms.

   In short, when fighting with the Han army firearms, you must not put up a dense formation, or you will give away the Han's artillery.

   Come again, once you start a charge, don't have any hesitation, you must use the fastest speed to rush up and mix with the Han soldiers.

The current Sassanian army is not in an offensive position. Because of the mixed infantry and cavalry, they discovered that the coming Han army are all cavalry. According to the traditional choice, they stopped to rectify and arranged the necessary defensive front formation. .

  The range of 50,000 or so foot rides is actually not that small, and the space occupied by it is constantly increasing.

   This area is absolutely flat terrain, there is no **** of slope, there is no dense vegetation, not even a few trees are seen, it is gray-yellow at first glance.

About 6,000 Sassanian cavalry were attacked under the order of Habibra. Not long after they left the formation, they were divided into two columns, one with about 4,000 cavalry, and the other with about 2,000 cavalry. Toward the Han cavalry who assaulted from the left and right wings.

   On the battlefield, the drum horns have been constantly sounding now.

   The main war instrument of the Persians is a kind of trombone, which sounds like a low call of elephants. They have used this musical instrument for more than a thousand years, and their opponents have been very uncomfortable with this kind of war horn. The Romans gave it a soft and soft evaluation.

   Now that the Han army listens to the trombone from the Sassanid army, the evaluation that countless people have in their minds is the "sound of depravity".

   Sassan has more than one war instrument, they actually have war drums. It is a flattened drum, which sounds crisp when it is beaten, and is as strong as it is without a war instrument.

   Every country will have its own war instrument. Taking the Han army as an example, it uses horns and war drums, and the sound will sound relatively strong.

   What the Han people knew was that the Roman war instrument was mainly a copper trumpet. The sound wave won't be too long, and it's probably a kind of "dududu" rhythm.

  The Habayashi Army did not carry war drums, but a horn-shaped horn was carried by the trumpeter.

  The war instrument of the Han army, when carrying the war drums, will continue to sound after the war, and the horn will only be sounded when the military order is conveyed.

On the current battlefield, all the sounds of war instruments are from the Persians, making the Han military officers wonder what the situation is like when the Persians continue to use war instruments to make movement and wait to use war instruments to convey military orders. .

   The sound of war drums and trombone on the battlefield was endless, the sound of horseshoe stomping was also continuous, and the Sassanian infantry began to shout constantly.

   "What are they yelling?" Li Jun asked a translation that understood Persian: "How come the syllables are so fixed?"

   The translator listened for a while, and replied: "It's the name of some gods and the sound of killing."

   "This world shouldn't have languages ​​other than Chinese!" Li Jun showed a disgusting expression: "It sounds weird!"

   What can I do with the translation, I can only agree with nodding.

   Han cavalry assaulting from the left and right wings, one of them is about to come into contact with the two thousand Sassanian cavalry.

   Another Han army cavalry on the right wing, they are making a relatively large roundabout, with the four thousand or so Sassanian cavalry going around in circles.

  The cavalry of the Han army gathered a long line in the movement and slowly became three cavalry teams. Each cavalry team was two cavalry side by side. Behind them was the same robe knights who were also driving side by side.

   From a bird’s eye view from high above, you will see the Han cavalry stretched out three long lines. The lines are not absolutely straight. On the contrary, they are twisted like snakes, constantly changing their shape under the leadership of the knight in front.

  Using Zhu Xia's war formation to explain, the three Han cavalry teams are all arranging long snake formations. This cavalry formation is not used for charging purposes, mainly to pull the enemy's formation, and at the same time use long-range weapons to attack after entering the range.

   Every knight of the Han army will keep a safe distance of more than three meters from the robe, making the formation look stretched again.

  The light cavalry of the Han army, their main equipment is a riding spear, a curved cavalry sword, a riding crossbow and a riding bow. Because it is a light cavalry, the horse does not have any defensive armor, but it is actually wearing a light cavalry style leather armor.

   The so-called cavalry style armor is a type with skirt armor, and the length of the skirt armor covers the thighs.

Leather armor is basically not very effective for defensive melee weapons, and the defense against long-range metal arrowheads is not high, unless it is against arrows that use bones or stone arrowheads, otherwise it is actually to prevent scratches. A kind of psychological comfort.

"shoot!"

  Different languages, soldiers from different camps, almost shouted at the same time.

  The cavalry of the Han army did not use crossbows. The knights who entered the range of shooting were armed with bows and arrows.

   On the side of the Sassanian army, professional archers use a large bow, while ordinary cavalry uses a horn bow.

  The bows used by the Han army and the Persian archers looked very similar in appearance. The length of the bows was longer than that of ordinary bows, and the arrows used were slightly longer.

The sound of bowstrings is not obvious in the thunder of horseshoes. The shot arrows fly in mid-air. When they fall, only a few of them hit knights and horses. Once people are shot, they basically hit half of them. The shaft of the arrow pierced through, and the horse would blunder and fall to the ground if it was shot.

   This Han army cavalry is a long-snake formation. While firing at each other, the overall formation not only bends greatly, but is even divided into more long formations.

   The Sassanian cavalry who were fighting against this Han army unknowingly followed the Han army's cavalry in motion, and they divided their troops separately.

   The two sides kept shooting at each other during the movement, and the knights shot down the arrows all the time, or else the arrows got out of control on the battle horses.

  The Han cavalry had already formed a formation and waited for the Sassanid cavalry to "hit" up. They were shooting arrows, but at the same time, more Han cavalry shot arrows.

In this way, every time a knight falls on the Han side, at least three knights on the Sassan side will fall. Waiting for the formation of both sides to be broken in a sports battle. The Han cavalry will be broken for two days. At least there are more than 1,900, but Sassan’s 2,000 cavalry is only less than 1,700.

   are two cavalry units that have officially fought. After there is no longer any formation between each other, the development of the war has slowly turned into a contest between a team and a team, or a fight between single riders.

After the battle situation changed, the equipment advantage of the Han cavalry was maximized. For example, during the recovery period, the crossbow could be picked up to aim and fire without much effort. Shoot down the horse.

The two knights of the enemy and us who are in the hedge. The Han cavalry has a six-meter-long cavalry spear, and the Sassanid cavalry is mostly a short weapon such as a scimitar. The scimitar of the Shan cavalry was a few meters away from the Han cavalry, but it was stabbed by the spear of the Han cavalry.

   The two groups of cavalry were about 2,000 at the beginning. From entering a fighting state to becoming a squad battle, it took only five minutes or so.

   As the commander-in-chief of Li Jun, he will only pay attention to the troops entering the fighting state in the front, and put more thoughts on the overall mobilization.

   "The Han people are really good at more than just using firearms." Habibullah paid more attention to the fighting after the war: "We lose about three soldiers before we can destroy a Han army!"

   The Persians still have a deep understanding of the strength of the Han people. They really didn't regard the Han people as a vegetable chicken. On the contrary, they paid more attention and fear than the Romans.

   The purely Han firearms behind it were too eye-catching, which made the firearms more fearful of the Persians. In a way, it ignored the strength of the Han army in addition to the powerful firearms.

   "Your Excellency Governor!" Sha Zhan is a Persian general. He has been following the headquarters of the Han army: "They are moving!"

   Habibullah shifted his sight and saw that the headquarters of the Han army was approaching at a slow speed.

   "This Han army has not been found carrying firearms for the time being." Sha Zhan was still quite excited by this discovery: "If they don't have firearms, should we be bolder?"

   Excluding the previous battle in which the Persians and many allies entered the territory of the Hunite state, they were actually the first Sassanian army to fight the Han army in their own country.

  As the first group of Sassanid army commanders to fight the Han army, Habibullah’s psychological pressure was beyond imagination. It is precisely because the pressure is too great that he tends to be more conservative when making choices. It is necessary to divide the troops to attack the Kingdom of Gidoror, and it is a strategic consideration to lead the army to suppress it.

   Just now, Habibullah was thinking of pulling away a cavalry from the formation to save the cavalry that seemed destined to be defeated. Before making a decision, the headquarters of the Han army was pressed in.

   When the headquarters of the Han army pushed in, the Han army cavalry on the right wing, which had been in a cruising state, had already turned into a front-line formation, and launched a charge against the four thousand sassanian cavalry in front.

   Lee Jun will let his headquarters move forward, supporting his cavalry on the left and right wings. One of them is to ensure the victory of the left wing, and the other is to put more psychological pressure on the enemy commander.

   In the battle between the army and the army, the victory or defeat mainly depends on the commander's grasp of the battlefield. Usually, it is to dispatch and give more opportunities to your own troops that have entered a state of war.

   Generally speaking, avoiding a certain part being at a disadvantage and ensuring the expansion of the advantageous part is the most basic quality of a general.

   What Lee Jun is doing is to ensure that the local advantage is expanded, and he will make the next choice based on the state of the enemy.

   "Cavalry..." Habibullah gritted his teeth and yelled: "All the cavalry are out of the formation, don't need to think more, and rush directly to the enemy you can see!"

Habibullah was awakened by Sha Zhan's reminder. They are ten times more numerous than the Han army~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Being too cautious is not only damaging the morale of our own soldiers, but also destroying the enemy one by one. Chance.

Li Jun, who was heading his head forward, heard the enemy’s main battle drums and horns change the rhythm, and then watched the enemy’s main battle hula rushing out of the cavalry. The infantry forming the front line was also moving, and he whispered secretly. Order: "Order the left and right wings to leave the battlefield, and the headquarters to turn north!"

The situation that Li Jun wants to see the last time has emerged. What he hopes is that the enemy will be sufficiently jealous of him, and every time he will only send an appropriate number to fight, if the enemy launches an entire attack regardless of the situation, they will be full of iron and iron. The only way to hit a few nails is to choose a distance.

   "Hahaha!" Habibullah pointed at the retreating Han army and laughed: "The Han people are also afraid!"

   The withdrawal of the Han army caused the Sassanid soldiers to cheer. It seemed that they found that the Hans were not invincible. The small heart finally didn't need to beat so fast, and the hands and feet didn't need to tremble again. For a while, the courage returned.

   "You don't need to evacuate too fast!" Li Jun heard the Persian cheers, and responded with a sneer: "Let them chase!"

  The Han army is all cavalry, but the Sassanian army is mixed with infantry and cavalry. Li Jun would like to see the Persians happily chasing after him.

   Li Jun was still depressed that the enemy was calm enough before. If the enemy really kept the formation, the Han army, which was full of cavalry, wouldn't be stupid to attack.

   Now, the Sassanid army started to move on its own. They were chasing away on foot, and the army was getting more and more scattered...
