"That summer general..."

Seeing the shocking Xia general standing in the distance, he turned to look at them. The Huns soldiers were in turmoil, and even the leader, Lao Qian, showed a solemn look.

He was not unfamiliar with the Xia people's army, such as Zhao State.

The one they had dealt the most in recent decades was the Lin family of Zhao. To be honest, they had the strength that was so strong that they were forced to give up the vast land hundreds of miles north of Gaolang.

But the strange Xia army that appeared on this land today is much stronger than the Zhao army. Whether it is the heavy Xia soldiers who like to smash horses, or the Xia cavalry - didn't the Xia people like to fight with chariots, and when did they also train cavalry?

Of course, the brave Xia general who shocked the old man the most was the brave.

He witnessed with his own eyes that the Xia general killed Wuhun, the leader of the Wu tribe warriors, and chopped Wuhun down the horse in front of hundreds of Linhu cavalry around him. This bravery was admirable even on the grassland.

"Let's back, my soldiers."

Lao Qiang Decisively ordered.

The Hun nobles under his command were very puzzled. Someone said dissatisfiedly: "Those Xia people killed our soldiers, but we were going to retreat in front of them. If this matter spreads, the tribes on the grassland will ridicule us for being cowardly."

"Do you really want to fight with this Xia army?"

Lao Qian looked at the nobles under his command with an inexplicable expression and said with a wise smile: "There is a saying in the Central Plains that "the snipe and clam fight, the fisherman will benefit, and the Xia army and the Hu people are hard to part with. Why should we intervene? Just look at which side will be defeated... If the Xia people are defeated, we will assist the Hu people in pursuing the Xia army; if the Hu people are defeated, we can take the opportunity to steal the Hu people's women, flocks and slaves."

The Hun nobles suddenly realized that no one opposed it anymore.

So, Lao Qian took about three thousand Hun soldiers under his command and slowly retreated.

There was not much retreat, so I only retreated about half a mile, and then I continued to stand on horseback, looking at the battle between the troops of Shaoliang, Wei, and Zhao and Lin Hu.

This is a message released by the old man to the Xia general in the distance: We have no malice and do not want to get involved in the battle between you, Xia Ren and Lin Hu.

“…”

Li He, who noticed the actions of the Huns in the distance, captured the message and frowned and relaxed slightly.

To be honest, with these three thousand Hun cavalry eyeing each other, Li He was under great pressure. After all, it would be enough for him to deal with Lin Hu. If these three thousand Hun cavalry also took advantage of the situation, then the coalition of his coalition would be even more difficult.

Fortunately, for some reason, the Hun cavalry in the distance did not mean to unite with Lin Hu, which is good news.

Just as he was thinking, a thousand soldiers in the trap and five hundred cavalry Liang Qi had completed the siege of nearly a thousand soldiers of Lin Hu. When the leader Wuhun was killed by Li He, the morale of these Lin Hu cavalrymen fell sharply and had no intention of fighting. After leaving hundreds of corpses, they fled in a hurry.

Considering that the five hundred cavalry Shaoliang soldiers were not yet proficient in cavalry, Li He ordered the pursuit to stop, and only asked the soldiers of the formation and the Shaoliang soldiers to defend themselves and protect the people of Gaolang to retreat.

I don’t know if it was forced to threaten, but in the end the Gaolang people retreated very quickly. In just a moment, everyone retreated to the west bank of the river. The people who were previously killed by the Hu people in the Wu tribe were also taken away by others, especially the victims. I don’t know if I were worried that the bodies of these women would still be desecrated by the fierce Hu people after their death.

The successful evacuation of Gaolang's people means that the coalition forces can also withdraw, but the problem is that the coalition forces are now bitten by Pilo's army and cannot withdraw for the time being. The random order to retreat will undoubtedly lead to a defeat.

After thinking for a while, Li He ordered the soldiers who were trapped in the formation and the five hundred cavalry Liang Qibing: "Go and support the Zhao army first."

Under the leadership of Li He, 1,500 elite soldiers turned around and headed towards the Zhao army's defense line.

At the same time, Lin Zhan was struggling with the five thousand Zhao troops, to be precise, there were only more than 3,500 people left at this moment.

It’s not that the Hu Nu who attacked the Zhao army was so powerful. The key is that the Lin Hu cavalry behind Hu Nu and the Lin Hu cavalry who were skillful in bowing and horses were the real threat to the Hu army. So far, nearly 90% of the casualties of the Wei and Zhao armies were caused by these Hu cavalry.

Given that his side lacked flexible and mobile cavalry, Li He did not rashly send 500 cavalry to drive away the Hu soldiers, but instead intentionally defeated Hu Nu on the side of the Zhao army's front. If the Hu Nu all retreated, in fact, the lethality of Lin Hu cavalry would be greatly reduced.

"attack!"

With Li He's order, Peng Chou and Hu Feng took the troops to the Hu Nu outside the Zhao army's defense line first.

These soldiers who were no less than those of Wei Wushu were more oppressive than those of Wei Wushu in charge. They first held up their shields and slammed into Hu Nu, knocking those behind-the-distance Hu Nu to the ground, then sacrificing the butcher's knife, killing Hu Nu who was blocking his face like chopping melons and vegetables.

Some soldiers of Zhao may notice the reinforcements coming from the side and reminded Lin Zhan in surprise: "Young Master, that son, Doctor Liang has led his soldiers to help us!"

"I saw it..."

Lin Zhan nodded in panting, looking in the direction of Li He and others in surprise.

According to his visual observation, there were only a thousand infantrymen who entered the Hu Nu formation from the side, but these thousand infantrymen were really fierce. Every soldier slaughtered the Hu Nu who blocked him like killing chickens and dogs. That was not called fighting at all, it should be called massacre.

"Wu Jun?"

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhan admitted his mistake, but this did not prevent him from making a wise decision: "Hurry! Cooperate with the Wei Wuzhang under the command of Doctor Liang, let's attack Hu Nu!"

"Whoa whoa--"

Although the more than 3,500 Zhao troops were exhausted, their morale was greatly boosted by the help of reinforcements.

Under the attack of a thousand soldiers and more than 3,500 Zhao troops, the only five or six thousand Hu Nu left here was quickly killed and dispersed. Even if the Hu people's supervision team kept scolding and killing people to demonstrate, it could not stop the Hu Nu's dispersal. The latter fled everywhere and failed to form a army.

Without these Hu slaves, the three or four thousand Hu cavalrymen in the distance were also irritated.

The Hu slaves in the front row all escaped. What should I do now?

Kill directly towards the Xia army opposite?

Looking at the bodies of Hu Nu everywhere in the distance, the Hu cavalry were inevitably a little scared. After all, in terms of head-on combat, the cavalry on their grassland may not be the opponents of the Central Plains army.

The only thing they can do is shoot arrows in the distance.

But as long as you are prepared for this move, it is actually not difficult to resist.

Just now, facing the arrow shots of the three or four thousand Hu cavalrymen, the soldiers and the Zhao army all raised their shields, with minimal casualties.

Taking advantage of this time, Li He rode his horse to find Lin Zhan.

After saluting each other, Li He said seriously: "The people of Gaolang have all retreated to the west bank, and our coalition forces should retreat one after another. There are too many cavalrymen in the Hu people, and we cannot effectively restrain them, so there is no need to continue to get entangled."

Seeing Lin Zhan nodding, he continued, "Please lead the Zhao army to retreat slowly to the entrance of the bridge first, and I will support the Wei army... Remember to be careful of the Hu people destroying the bridge."

Lin Zhan clasped his fists solemnly and said with a strong and powerful voice like a vow: "Doctor Liang please rest assured. Even if we all die in battle, we will not sit still and watch the Hu people slash on the bridge with a knife."

Li He nodded, and led the soldiers of the trap and the five hundred cavalry and Liang's troops to support the Wei army's defense line.

I have to say that the most pressure today is the Wei army, whether it is the Wei Wu soldiers or the soldiers of the army. They not only have to resist the attack of 30,000 to 40,000 Hu Nu head-on, but also have to withstand the volley of Lin Hu cavalry from behind.

Although Xia Yangjun had already responded and ordered the last rows of soldiers to turn around and face the Linhu cavalry, there were still Wei troops who were still hit by arrows in the back when they blocked the enemy in front.

Fortunately, there are fewer fatal places on the back, and the Hu people also use flat clusters of arrows. Unless they hit the key points, even if they hit the human body, the wound will fit into the clusters of arrows, so that they will not lose their combat capabilities immediately.

Having said that, the Wei army also suffered at least a thousand casualties, and countless injured people.

"Doctor Ziliang! Doctor Ziliang is here!"

After receiving a reminder from the guards beside him, Xia Yangjun turned around and saw that Li He was back alone. Unlike before, Li He who came back at this moment was covered in blood, as if he was fishing out of the blood pool.

Seeing this, Xia Yang Jun was shocked. After Li He approached, he hurriedly asked, "Ziliang, the blood on your body..."

"It was splashed by the person I killed..."

Li He's silent answer made Xia Yangjun and the guards beside him widen their eyes.

How many people did this kill to make it look like this?

Li He didn't know what Xia Yangjun and others were thinking. After explaining the blood on their bodies, he said seriously: "The Zhao people from Gaolang have all retreated to the west bank, so we should retreat too. It's hard for our army to defeat Lin Hu today..."

He said it very tactfully. In fact, it is not just difficult to defeat Lin Hu, but it should be said that it is simply impossible.

Of course, it is not easy for Lin Hu to defeat the coalition forces, after all, the combat power of those Hu Nu is too vulnerable.

Xia Yang Jun also understood this and nodded after hearing this, saying, "You are right, but these Hu people are biting tightly, so it is difficult for our army to retreat."

Li He had a long time decided: "Just kill these Hu slaves first... Without these Hu slaves, those Lin Hu cavalry may not dare to confront our army head-on."

"Then please!"

"Xia Yang Jun is so serious."

After a few words, Li He bid farewell to Xia Yangjun and returned to the team of the soldiers who were trapped in the formation. He formed three sharp knives with Peng Chou and Hu Feng, and killed from one side of the Wei army's defense line to the other side, killing the Hu slaves in the ground in fear.

Originally, those Hu Nu were already very reluctant to attack the Wei army head-on, but now the flanks were attacked by the soldiers who were trapped in the formation and the five hundred cavalry Liang Qi soldiers. They were attacked on both sides and no longer had the fighting spirit and soon they were defeated like the Hu Nu who attacked the Zhao army before.

"No need to chase after me, hurry up and withdraw back to the other side!"

To stop the Wei army from pursuing their intentions, Li He issued an order to retreat slowly.

Under his order, the 13,400 Wei army held a shield and faced the Linhu cavalry in the distance, retreating step by step. Although the retreat speed was like a turtle crawling, Sheng was not chaotic during the retreat process, and always kept facing the enemy head-on, so that the Linhu cavalry who were trying to find defensive loopholes did not find any chance in the end.

Bang-

"A bunch of cowards!"
