Chapter 1654 Pang De Breaks Qiang (Part 2)
At a distance of a hundred steps, the Xianbei cavalry released arrows in their hands at the Qiang soldiers on the opposite side, followed by a counterattack from the Qiang soldiers.
The cavalry can cause huge damage to the enemy by using bows and arrows. Similarly, if the enemy has well-trained archers, it can also deter oneself. This is why the cavalry will disperse when charging on the battlefield.
Because of the formation.
In this way, casualties caused by enemy archers can be avoided to a great extent.
The Xianbei cavalry was good at riding and shooting, and it was fully utilized on such a battlefield. However, one arrow after another was seen constantly taking the lives of the Qiang soldiers. In terms of protection, although the Qiang soldiers had shields, they
The protection is always too weak.
As for the Qiang cavalry, they are not weak in the ability of riding and shooting, but compared with the Xianbei cavalry, the gap is too big, so they can only defend passively.
After two rounds of arrows, the Xianbei cavalry approached the Qiang soldiers.
After about a quarter of an hour of fighting, the Qiang infantry and cavalry were surprised to find that the Xianbei cavalry, who had just looked so fierce in their eyes and shocked them so much, seemed to be a different person in close combat.
After many Qiang generals noticed this scene, they cursed the Xianbei people for their incompetence. They clearly had a huge advantage in riding and shooting, but they gave up their advantage to engage in close combat with their own side.
However, this situation is extremely beneficial to the Qiang soldiers. They wish that the Xianbei cavalry would be even more stupid.
After the Qiang Central Army and Dian Ling learned about the cavalry battle, they were relieved. If there were any mistakes in containing the Xianbei cavalry, it would affect their own army's frontal battle with the Han army, and the result would be failure.
This is not what Dian Ling wants to see.
On the frontal battlefield, Niu Fu led the remaining army and launched a fierce attack on the Qiang people. With the huge advantage gained from the crossbow just now, the Han army soldiers had the upper hand steadily against the Qiang people.
Especially on the frontal battlefield, there are 300 Han cavalry. These cavalry are just causing trouble on the battlefield. Wherever the cavalry appears, they can always cause casualties to the Qiang soldiers. Even if the Qiang soldiers
Brave, but not strong enough to face cavalry without changing his expression.
Not giving in when facing the cavalry is already a great test for the Qiang infantry. However, when facing the cavalry charge, their formation will inevitably become loose. At this time, it is the Han soldiers who are
When their front army was showing off its power, the Han army's infantry was not weak in strength. Coupled with the huge advantages of weapons and armor, and the support of the cavalry, they had an absolute upper hand on the battlefield.
Niu Fu liked this method of fighting very much. These cavalry seemed to be a mobile army defending the city wall. Wherever the enemy appeared, they would attack to make the enemy afraid.
After Dian Ling learned the news about the front army, his face was gloomy. He did not expect that the Han army would be so shameless, using the advantages of the cavalry to continuously create advantages in the front army. If this continues, the Qiang army will be in an absolute position.
On the disadvantages.
But at this time, Dian Ling has absolute trust in the Qiang soldiers. The Qiang army has experienced many hard battles, but it has come through again and again. The strength of the army is getting stronger and stronger. This is the Qiang people's strength.
Advantage, it would be weird if they couldn't win against the Han army's infantry.
"Chief, these Han cavalry were probably done deliberately by the enemy in order to gain an absolute advantage on the frontal battlefield and win the victory." Zhang Qi frowned.
Dian Ling's expression condensed, "If this is the case, what should we do?"
"Chief, the combat effectiveness of the Xianbei cavalry is nothing more than this. Judging from the situation on the battlefield, only relying on two thousand infantry and one thousand cavalry is enough to contain these cavalry. It would be better to mobilize a thousand infantry and send them to the front army.
In this way, the situation on the battlefield will definitely be changed. As long as the Han army's infantry can be broken through head-on, this battle can be won." Zhang Qi said slowly.
Dian Ling nodded in agreement after a long silence. The cavalry was just as Zhang Qi expected. Although it burst out with strong combat effectiveness at the beginning, it became weaker and weaker after the battle. Such a situation was very difficult for the Qiang army.
This is definitely good news, no one wants the enemy to become stronger.
Defeating the Han army on the frontal battlefield is the most important thing in Dian Ling's eyes. Only in this way can the spirit of the Han army be dampened to a greater extent. Moreover, these light cavalry are just Xianbei people. If the Han army is defeated, how can they last long?
In this regard, Dian Ling's analysis was quite accurate. However, he ignored who the commander of the Xianbei cavalry was. If he knew that the general of the Han army led the Xianbei cavalry to charge, it was the military commander who commanded the Han soldiers in frontal combat.
I don’t know how I would feel if I were to win a general.
When Pound led the Xianbei cavalry to fight against the Qiang cavalry and infantry, they were completely roaming the battlefield. However, with the advantage of the cavalry, they also achieved some gains on the battlefield. However, the Qiang soldiers felt that they were Han soldiers.
However, as long as you are careful, you can contain the illusion of these cavalry.
Seeing the Qiang infantry withdrawing from the battlefield that blocked the cavalry, Pang De showed a sneer on his face. It seemed that his own army had caused a lot of damage to the Qiang people on the battlefield. Otherwise, the Qiang people would not have done anything like this.
At the critical moment, mobilize infantry to retreat.
Pang De still led the cavalry to wander on the flanks of the Qiang army. He had to wait for the opportunity to come. Once the two armies were in a stalemate when fighting head-on, it would be time for him to lead the cavalry to charge.
The cavalry had a powerful impact on the battlefield, which was the key to Pound's defeat of the Qiang people.
An hour later, the battle between the Qiang people and the Han army reached a fever pitch. Both sides went back and forth without giving in. With the help of the cavalry, Niu Fu persisted in the battle. Initially, he had a crossbow and
With the help of the cavalry, the Han army was once at an advantage. However, as Dian Ling sent infantry to kill again, and the battle became stalemate, the bravery of the Qiang soldiers made many soldiers look a little confused when facing the Qiang soldiers.
Afraid, especially of soldiers wearing red uniforms on the battlefield.
Niu Fu, who noticed this scene, blushed slightly. These soldiers were his subordinates in the past. Unexpectedly, on the real battlefield, these soldiers who usually call themselves warriors would actually feel fear in front of the Qiang people.
mood.
When soldiers develop fear on the battlefield, it is extremely terrifying. Fear can prevent soldiers from performing half of the strength shown in normal training.
