Sweep the World

Chapter 618: : The new era that is about to enter

Ran Min led three thousand cavalry in the battle at the beginning. From the morning to the afternoon, the number of cavalry next to him dropped to less than one thousand.

It's not that Ran Min encountered some powerful army that lost two thousand horses, but the environment here was too complicated. They caught the retreating Murong Yan army and killed them all the way, and Murong Yan army ran around and chased them out. The troops will inevitably disperse with most of them when they chase.

In a battlefield full of enemy soldiers, it is not easy for the side with the advantage to rendezvous after dispersing. This is the case in the open area and the forest full of trees. There can be thousands of people. People follow around, which has demonstrated Ran Min's good commanding ability.

In fact, Ran Min didn’t care much about how many subordinates followed closely. He killed more than 300 enemies with his own hands today. The guy in his hand...that is, the double-edged spear and the hook drank full of blood, Zhu Longma and himself His body was covered with a layer of blood, and when he was killing happily, he just caught people and kept killing him, and didn't bother to pay attention to it so much.

If it hadn't been for the reminder from the army Sima, Ran Min hadn't noticed the semaphore sent by Xie Ai.

Ran Min, who was notified by the friendly army, knew the existence of Diaobao cavalry on the battlefield, and his blood burned instantly. He had the experience of fighting against the Diaobao cavalry. It was the battle where Shihu personally conquered Murong Xianbei. At that time, he was the queen force after Shihu took the lead in fleeing, and he faced more than 30,000 Murong Xianbei with less than 3,000 people. The cavalry is a character who is caught chasing and killing for a while.

"Vengeance! Revenge! Revenge!" Ran Min's eyes were red, waving a hook and halberd to pick up an enemy who was in the way, looking for the direction and shouting: "Chong!"

The current situation of Murong Yan's army is very bad. Most of the people just want to escape from this Shura field, still in the posture of being ordered to escape, only a few of them can be mobilized by Murong Ke to fight.

There were so many people on the battlefield. Seeing that there was no coordination at all, some of the dizzy Murong Yanjun even fled and headed southwest. As a result, the Han army that was chased out was blocked again.

The collapse of Murong Yan's army was caused in a very short period of time. Seventy thousand people fled across the mountains and plains everywhere, except that there was really no way to escape before they abandoned their weapons and knelt down for surrender. This is the effect brought about by the large-scale killing of the Jie people by Han in Bingzhou and Shuozhou. The soldiers of Murong Yan's army were completely afraid that they would become the targets of being buried alive. As a result, they would never surrender if they could not surrender.

There are battlefields for people everywhere. Even the cavalry can hardly keep running at a high speed. They will continue to slow down in the continuous fighting, and it is actually very good to be able to run.

There were only about a thousand knights around Ran Min, and nearly 6,000 horses accompanied him.

There is no shortage of horses in the Han country. Even the light cavalry can do one man and two horses. In addition to two horses for alternate replacement, the assault cavalry also has a workhorse for carrying heavy loads; like the armored cavalry of the tiger army. There are also two horses that are used to alternately replace the battle horses, but there is also a war horse that can be used at ordinary times, and there is a workhorse that is used to carry loads.

Ran Min and the others were about a thousand people, and there would be about 6,000 horses accompanying them. It was the nature of horses to be accustomed to being in a group. It was equivalent to the rest of the robe that had gone away. Their spare horses and workhorses were almost here.

Horses without weights are of course lighter, and they will run faster than horses loaded with knights, but long-term training will make them more disciplined, so they can run in the forefront without sahuan. Some of them are connected by horses carrying knights to run, and some are purely following the flow, trampling all the way with the roaring horseshoes. Anyone who stands in the way will be knocked down, and then be trampled by countless horseshoes and become muddy. .

Xie Ai used the height of the nest cart to look across the battlefield, and only when he saw Ran Min killing towards the position of the Leopard and Leopard cavalry, he shifted his gaze to another place.

At this moment, the woods in the southwest are still pouring out of people, and the number of cavalry is not many. Both the enemy and us on foot appear in fleeing and chasing. Everywhere we can see sharp blades flashing and splashing blood, and then the body falls heavily. on the ground.

The voice of "surrender and not kill" can already be heard in the woods, and Xie Ai smiled upon hearing it.

Persuasion to surrender will only happen when it has an advantage. The voice of persuasion to surrender means that the main force of the Han army has also caught up. Xie Ai is both an accident and a pleasant surprise that his main force is coming so quickly.

"Order the infantry to push forward slowly." Xie Ai said and shook his hand to the bottom. The layers of the nest cart slowly descended amidst the creaking sound: "Isn't Murong Ke still found?"

"No." Yuan Qiao put down the telescope that had been covering his eyes: "It should be from Yanqi, but I don't know if he is still there or has fled."

"The enemy's armor and riding gear are still there." Xie Ai meant that the Diaobao cavalry is a heavy weapon of Murong Yanguo, so why would Murong Ke leave to run. Seeing that the slab was stabilized, he opened the door and went out, saying: "Chang Shi continues to observe the battlefield and waits for an opportunity to give orders, and a certain person rushes to the front."

Yuan Qiao bowed: "It should be so."

The reason why the battlefield is a battlefield is not only a place full of blood and blood, but also enough chaos and noisy. Ran Min has been charging and killing all the way, but in fact it is impossible to confirm whether the route has been abducted.

In the battlefield, unless it is located on a high ground, otherwise it is really difficult to identify the target. After all, there are people everywhere on the battlefield, and they will move in the fight if they don't die, but there is no reason to stay in place and wait for people to kill.

The truth is that Murong Ke personally came to the position of the Diaobao cavalry after the cavalry of the Han army came out of the forest from the southwest. He knew that this army was over, and the rest of the arms would not be saved if they couldn't be saved, so he wanted to take the remaining sable and leopard cavalry away from the battlefield.

Disarming on the battlefield is not a sensible act, but if the armor is not disarmed, you can’t get far, and you can’t even think about changing horses while riding. Only when the knight takes off the armor, the mount should also be relieved of the vest, and the load of that body is shared by multiple horses, in order to maximize the physical strength for the long-distance gallop.

"Henggong, Ran Min is coming up soon." Liu Xiang didn't want to look so useless, but the problem was that he couldn't help it: "Let's go quickly!"

"It's not just Shi Min..." Murong Ke's gaze was looking to the southwest, but he couldn't pass through so many figures or see through the dense trees, and said deeply: "The main force of the Han King is not far away. "

It hasn't been a day yet, Murong Ke feels everything is like dreaming.

At the last moment, Murong Yan's army still had a large-scale defense line. The 40,000 troops that were left to garrison the defense line and the 70,000 troops that were in a evacuated state collapsed in one day, but it is unknown how many people were able to escape.

It has been about a quarter of an hour for the Sable and Leopard Cavalry to disarm. The speed of disarming, regardless of the armor damage, has increased a lot. The number of people who were first approved for evacuation should be seven or eight hundred. five hundred.

The battlefield was very noisy and chaotic. Murong Ke used his best to observe the surrounding area and found that a Han cavalry was within two miles, but the surrounding troops only used their backs to face the enemy, and their heart sank. At the same time, he shouted: "Those who are still in Armour are ready to respond to the enemy, and the rest will come with someone."

The sable and leopard cavalry who hadn't lifted their armor were stunned by the repeated shouting orders. Watching the support staff run away, and then at the disarmed companions, they looked fortunate. At that time, they were really mixed.

The Diaobao cavalry has always enjoyed superb treatment in the Murongyan army. The invincibility of the past has also cultivated their own pride. It is just that they are too frustrated today, and they have been trained to obey orders for a long time. No matter how complicated their hearts are, those people still habitually choose to obey orders.

"Go away!"

"Don't get in the way!"

"Go! Go!"

Because the mood is complicated, it will become irritable, and it takes space to set up the formation. The five hundred or so sable and leopard cavalrymen still cursed at first, and then they simply waved their weapons at the disobedient friendly army.

Ran Min, who had been killing people, was rushing towards him and gradually felt something was wrong. When he was fighting, his attention was focused on the killing. Running over there would habitually face the enemy's position, circle around and repeat on the route that has already been rushed. There is nothing wrong with tossing.

Ran Min realized that something was wrong because there were fewer enemies around. He caught the rout soldiers running to the left and right in a certain place, and gradually saw the Diaobao cavalry lined up in the line.

"Change horses!"

After a fight, the number of assault cavalry with about a thousand soldiers dropped to less than eight hundred, and no one could tell how many were killed. The "huh" sound from the mount was able to distinguish the degree of fatigue.

After the speed dropped, Ran Min quickly turned from Zhu Longma to the back of the Wucha horses beside him. This black West Extreme Horse was named Wu Hao, which was selected by Liu Yan from many majestic horses, and was specially given to Ran Min after the name.

The name of the warlord’s mounts is more particular, usually based on the color of the horse. For example, the red rabbit horse is actually a horse with a fiery red coat. The color of the Zhulong horse also tends to be red. The horses called Wuqi are definitely a group. The black-haired horse, Jueying or something, is actually four-hooves stepping on the snow. The name is based on the color of the horse's fur and the hue of individual parts. It is generally not named randomly, and it is not a name that will be cautious for any horse.

Ran Min has the reputation of Xiang Yu in the world, and Liu Yan will reward the horse named Wu Qi. It probably meant that Liu Yan admitted Ran Min's bravery and encouraged Ran Min to kill the enemy bravely.

After the formation of the Diaobao cavalry was deployed, they didn't care if there were friendly troops on the road. They had already begun to advance slowly. The heavy armored horses rushed wherever they passed, and the chains dragged on the ground brought more than dust.

The assault cavalry who had finished changing their horses made a turn under the leadership of Ran Min, instead of directly crashing into it. They need an accelerated time and are well aware of the need for detours.

After all, the cuirassiers of the Han army are a kind of cuirassiers. The strongest protection is on the chest, and the rest is at most thick leather armor with arrows, which is lighter than the heavy cavalry wrapped in metal. It is also relatively flexible and incomparable in terms of overall weight. To use an analogy that is relatively clear to modern people, the heavily loaded cavalry is a tank, and the assault cavalry is an armored vehicle.

The sable and leopard cavalry have iron chains between each other. It is not ordinary difficult to change the direction after charging. Compared with other heavy cavalry, they rely more on the cooperation of the rest of the arms. At least the two wings need to be watched by friendly troops. The problem is that most of Murong Yan's army now only wants to escape, and the five hundred sable and leopard cavalry who were strangled to charge are quickly caught blind.

Yuan Qiao, who was on the nest cart, had a clearer look, and shouted aloud for Ran Min's side attack.

That was when the assault cavalry had completed the roundabout and attacked from the half-waist side. The sable and leopard cavalry, who could not turn or do dodge maneuvers, could only passively suffer the impact. The moment the cavalry crossed each other, their weapons greeted each other, and there were knights at all times. Drop off the horse.

With just two charges back and forth, Ran Min could no longer see the Leopard Rider who could safely ride on the horseback. He laughed wildly like a breath of malice, and he did not forget to lead his subordinates to continue to slaughter him. Murong Yanjun fleeing in panic.

In another place, Xie Ai gathered the cavalry himself, and had already begun to chase after the disarmed mink and leopard cavalry who had evacuated earlier.

It was almost evening when Liu Yan had left the forest and came to the open area ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ When he came over, the battle here had entered the stage of gathering prisoners of war.

"The king." Yuan Qiao came to see him as soon as Liu Yan came over, and after the salute, he reported: "Hou Meiyang and Hou Xinting led the army to chase, and the ministers presided over it here."

In recognition of Ai's meritorious deeds, Ting Hou was newly appointed during the Chinese New Year, and four other people were appointed together with him, which can be regarded as the Hou Ye with more than double digits in the country of Han Dynasty.

The results of today’s battle have not been fully counted. The Murong Yan’s army on the defensive line became a prisoner of war about 30,000. The brutal pursuit of Murong Yan’s army in the woods is also continuing. One hundred thousand army is an established fact.

Yuan Qiao said that he ordered people to bring in a large number of armor, and specifically explained: "These are the equipment of the enemy's armor and riding equipment, which is 1,300."

It’s not easy to calculate how many sable and leopard cavalry you kill. It can only be judged based on the captured cavalry heavy armor. After all, once a heavy cavalry loses its armor and equipment, it is not easy to build it in batches with the national strength of various countries. The matter of capturing the armor and equipment of a heavy cavalry is equivalent to destroying a heavy cavalry.

In fact, Liu Yan didn't know how many sable and leopard cavalry Murong Ke had brought, and he was not so afraid of heavy cavalry under the premise that he had already used gunpowder weapons.

For the current Han army, all types of arms are a matter of several rounds of blasting carts shooting explosive packs. If you can't kill it in one round, you will have to do a few more rounds.

In fact, after the advent of gunpowder weapons, Liu Yan is considering the portability of the army. In the future, the enemy will use a large number of gunpowder weapons. Before artillery and muskets are produced and installed in large numbers, grenades will be the killer of soldiers. During siege or battles, rappellers, bed crossbows, and other devices capable of launching explosive packets will be used to teach the enemy what it means to enter the era of hot weapons. 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to everyone's reading academy
