Chapter 580 Huo Qubing and Temujin(1/2)
Sandstorms swept through the sky, sand and stones flying on the Gobi Desert. The Han army hid behind camels and war horses, connecting camels and war horses into a line of defense to prevent being swept away by sandstorms.
"It's so deadly!"
Huo Qubing's deputy general Zhao Ponu hid behind a camel, complaining and covering his mouth and nose with gauze.
The terrible sandstorm lasted for a short while before it stopped.
All the helmets of the Han army, the saddles of war horses, and the hump of camels were covered with thick sand and dust.
The Han army stood up, slapped the gravel on their bodies, counted the water bags and weapons.
"Mongolian cavalry!"
A team of scouts cavalry exclaimed.
Sure enough, after the sandstorm, Temujin's Mongolian cavalry appeared again and took advantage of the fact that the Han army had not yet arranged the army and launched an attack!
Last time in Cheshi Kingdom, Temujin attacked the Han army that had already set up a square formation. This time, he took advantage of the sandstorm to lead the cavalry to launch a sudden attack, and he was sure to win!
"As expected, consistent with what the general said, Temujin would suddenly attack after the sandstorm! All the cavalry boarded the horse and fought Temujin! The rest of the infantry, centered on the Modao team, immediately formed a formation!"
Huo Qubing turned over and led the cavalry to meet the enemy!
The 40,000 Western Region Protectorate Legion, Huo Qubing led the ninth-level Han Empire cavalry and a team of third-level Han Empire light cavalry to attack Temujin's cavalry from the flanks and try to lead Temujin's main force away.
Li Siye led the Tang Dynasty Modao Team and a team of heavy infantry from the Western Regions Protectorate's Mansion to quickly line up.
Wang Xuance's Tubo cavalry and 36 cavalry protect the flanks of the Tang Dynasty and the heavy infantry, waiting for the central army to come to aid.
...
"The dust here is really..."
Qin Liangyu slapped the dust on the armor, and there was dust everywhere.
The soldiers from the southern central region have never seen such a harsh environment and suffered a lot.
"The front army may have been in war, so let's hurry up and support!"
Mu Ke was anxious and rode his horse to support the front army.
Qin Liangyu and Wutugu followed, and the vine armored soldiers and white pole soldiers had tenacious will. Even if they were almost buried by sandstorms, after the dust was shot, they would follow the main general and speed up the march.
...
"Break down this Han army!"
At the command of Temujin, 100,000 Mongolian cavalry launched a wave attack, attacking Li Siye's Modao team and heavy infantry!
However, Temujin is not Subust, and he has never seen the horror of the Modao team of Li Siye.
When the first row of Mongolian light cavalry approached the Tang Dynasty Modao Team and stabbed the spear at it, the Modao Team took two steps forward, swung the Modao Team in their hands, cutting off the light cavalry and their men and horses!
A touch of blood stained the desert gravel!
The Modao team and the heavy infantry attacked forward, slashing the light cavalry that rushed into the army formation one after another!
Offense is the best defense!
The Mongolian light cavalry, who originally thought that this heavy infantry of the Han army would defend on the spot, and used crossbows as the main means of killing the enemy, was completely stunned.
This special heavy infantry, along with a group of ordinary heavy infantry from the Western Regions Protectorate, holding heavy weapons such as mob knives and long axes, took steps and counterattacked the Mongolian light cavalry, while attacking the cavalry and war horses!
Caught off guard, many Mongolian light cavalry who rushed forward to test the Han army formation were chopped and hundreds of cavalry were killed!
"You can't use a spear, use a return horse arrow to shoot it."
Temujin found that the spear and the bow and arrow tactics were not effective for the Modao team, so he turned into a cavalry. When he was about to approach the Modao team, he used his skillful riding skills to turn the horse's head and turned around and shoot flat at the Modao team.
The Mongolian light cavalry formed an oval formation and took turns shooting at the Modao team.
The Modao team gathered into a dense Modao square array, and used the dense Modao to attack the rain of arrows.
There were still stray arrows shot into the dense Modao formation, shooting the soldiers of the Modao team.
"Heavy cavalry, assault from the flank."
Temujin mobilized heavy cavalry.
Even if the heavy cavalry attacks Modao Team head-on, they will be hacked and killed by the Modao Team.
Temujin planned to break through the flank of the Modao Team and destroy ordinary heavy infantry, causing the Modao Team in the middle to collapse together.
"The cavalry of Mongolian cavalry is indeed awesome."
Wang Xuance found that Temujin was difficult to deal with, and his bonus to the cavalry was too high.
The cavalry led by Huo Qubing was not inferior to the Mongolian cavalry, but Huo Qubing was different from Wei Qing and lacked the halo of the entire army. Li Siye's Modao team and Wang Xuance's temporary Tubo cavalry all rely on the bonus of the main general.
Even so, Wang Xuance still dared to fight Temujin because they still had the central army!
"Tubo cavalry, protect the Modao team!"
Perhaps he realized that Temujin was planning to attack Modao team sideways, Wang Xuance dispatched Tubo cavalry to protect the Modao team's flank!
About 10,000 Mongolian cavalry gathered on the flanks, but a team of Tubo cavalry took the initiative to fight this Mongolian cavalry to attract their attention.
"Break through the enemy's formation!"
Huo Qubing's cavalry suddenly attacked, breaking the unfavorable situation on the battlefield for the Han army!
Huo Qubing had about 10,000 cavalrymen, and suddenly launched a charge towards Mu Huali's explorer Chi!
"That cavalry is not large, is he afraid of his life?"
Temujin noticed Huo Qubing's cavalry that launched the charge and found that Huo Qubing's cavalry was almost not affected by the terrain and quickly rushed towards Mu Huali's explorer!
Huo Qubing's cavalry rushed in the front with Huo Qubing and his ninth-level Han Empire cavalry!
Subutai once mentioned the cavalry of the Han Empire more than once to Temujin. Although this cavalry is not large in number, it has the speed of light cavalry and the impact of heavy cavalry!
"Child Laowen, Borshu, you lead the Qiexue army to support Mu Huali."
Temujin immediately mobilized Qiexue army.
Only the Qiexue Army and the Zhongxiao Army can block Huo Qubing's cavalry!
Huo Qubing's cavalry was extremely fast, and when Temujin reacted, he had already penetrated Mu Huali's Explosive Ma Chi!
Huo Qubing used a long spear to trigger the "Brave Three Army" feature, stabbed several cavalry in front and killed him!
The ninth-level cavalry harvested all the way, and even the high-level light cavalry's Tamer Chi seemed fragile in front of Huo Qubing's cavalry!
Huo Qubing's "Fenglang Juxu" has a suppressive effect on Taming Ma Chi!
Hundreds of cavalry attacked fiercely, and soon drilled through Mu Huali's detective horse Chi and killed hundreds of detective horse Chi!
"Kill back!"
Huo Qubing killed more than ten cavalry by himself, and his eyes suddenly became clear and he felt unsatisfied, so he led the cavalry and turned his body to kill him again!
Tanma Chi fell into chaos, not only the chaotic effect brought by Huo Qubing and the Han Empire cavalry. Tanma Chi himself did not expect that Huo Qubing and his hundreds of cavalry would be so fast, and the impact power was not inferior to that of high-level heavy cavalry!
In the Battle of Mobei, Huo Qubing used 800 cavalry to penetrate 300,000 cavalrymen of the Zuoxian King of the Huns. At this time, the cavalry was less than 800, but he could also penetrate Mu Huali's cavalry!
In addition to being assigned to each commander's team for contact, Mu Huali's probe Ma Chi suffered heavy losses in the battle of Cheshiguo, and was attacked by Huo Qubing, which was completely in chaos.
A general who explored the horse, holding a mace, smashed Huo Qubing in the melee because he discovered that Huo Qubing was the soul of this cavalry.
If Huo Qubing was killed, the cavalry of the Han Empire might not be as powerful as the enemy!
Huo Qubing used a long gun to open the mace, and the gun blade left a scratch on the broad and broad shoulders of one of the five pioneers of the Red Horse!
When Huo Qubing charged, he was as powerful as a rainbow. With his bravery as the three armies, he would hurt Kuokuo in one round!
The war horses galloped, and Huo Qubing and his cavalry did not stop, otherwise they would be surrounded by the Mongolian army.
Only by doing one move can Mu Huali’s cavalry troops be penetrated again!
Hundreds of cavalry galloped all the way, and rushed out again, gathering with ten thousand light cavalry in the rear, preparing to attack Mu Huali's cavalry for the third time!
Temujin's face was gloomy. Huo Qubing actually drilled through Mu Huali's Tamma Chi twice in a row under his nose.
After repeated attempts, Huo Qubing wanted to do it again and again.
The Qiexue army had already stepped forward, but at this moment, Huo Qubing saw that the situation was not good, so he led the cavalry and the light cavalry to bypass the Qiexue army.
The power of the Qiexue Army, who had replaced the equipment, was greatly affected and could not catch up with Huo Qubing's light cavalry.
This is the advantage of the light cavalry.
Temujin was having a headache when Huo Qubing was constantly wandering around in front of him.
He could only use the Mongolian light cavalry and Tanma Chi to try to attack Huo Qubing.
However, Huo Qubing had high-level light cavalry, the cavalry of the Han Empire, who could easily drill through and chase him!
Huo Qubing's ability, combined with the unprecedented ninth-level light cavalry, applied the light cavalry tactics to the peak, and Temujin could not catch Huo Qubing.
As long as Huo Qubing does not confront the Qiexue army head-on, then Huo Qubing, who is wandering, will be almost invincible with his forces.
"Da Khan must not be distracted by it. The general of this cavalry should be the powerful enemy Huo Qubing as Subutai mentioned. Dahan drove him away with light cavalry, and then concentrated the Qixue army and Zhongxiao army to destroy the Han army's infantry. Huo Qubing must come to rescue him."
Yelu Chucai provided advice to Temujin.
