When Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda won the middle road, Tuyuhun and the left and right armies fell into a trap that Li Yan had already set.

Using the long range of the compound bow, when the Tuyuhun cavalry rushed in, the archers shot more than twenty times in a row. One thousand,500 archers shot more than 20,000 arrows. The powerful arrows were lifted into the air and fell like raindrops. The galloping cavalry in Tuyuhun fell in the rain of arrows like wheat blown by the strong wind. The front cavalry fell down, and the rear cavalry had no time to dodge and could only step over the body of the soldiers in front. Even if the falling cavalry was not shot by the arrow, they were buried under the horse's hooves of their own people.

Xue Rengui commanded the archers among the infantry, and asked the archers to adjust their direction from time to time to attack the densely packed parts of the cavalry. However, the cavalry was ultimately cavalry, and the advantage was that it was extremely fast, and it crossed the shooting area of ​​the arrow in an instant.

"Archesters shoot freely, infantry prepare." The Tuyuhun cavalry arrived in front of him in a blink of an eye. Xue Rengui shouted. Hearing his order, the Modao team immediately knelt on one knee in front of the three-meter-wide passage. The Modao, which was nearly two meters long, was tilted upward at forty-five degrees, preparing to fight against the cavalry. The other sword and shield hands were also standing on the edge of the trench, waiting for the cavalry to enter the trap.

The infantry of the Tang Dynasty was right in front of him, and the Tuyuhun cavalry once again made a beast-like roar. The volley of arrows just now caused them to lose a large number of people. Seeing their companions fall, they were extremely angry. They were red-eyed and wanted to cut these Tang people into pieces. They believed that it was easy to deal with these five or six thousand people with the advantage of cavalry. They just needed a simple collision to destroy these infantry. This was the experience they had obtained from their years of battle, and they also firmly believed in this.

Murong Shun was in the first half, and he had already felt something was wrong. Although the arrow rain of Songzhou defenders caused them to suffer heavy losses, the impact of the left and right troops could still kill the infantry. But now the defenders looked as usual and had no panic.

The defenders of Songzhou were already in front of them. In the blink of an eye, they could rush to them. The Tuyuhun soldiers raised their weapons at this time. Although Murong Shun was a little confused, he could not retreat among the troops and could only rush forward. But the next moment, he suddenly saw the most terrifying scene in his life. The cavalry in front of him suddenly fell down like the dumplings he saw in Chang'an. Suddenly, the howlings of people and war horses resounded throughout the battlefield.

"I've fallen into a trap, retreat, retreat!" Murong Shun pulled the reins tightly and issued a retreat order at the top of his lungs, but the thousands of cavalry in front of him could not stop being inertia and fell into the pit. The first pit was filled with horses and soldiers. The cavalry behind continued to rush, and then fell into the next pit, repeating this continuously.

His body was soaked in cold sweat in an instant. Murong Shun and the remaining five thousand cavalrymen retreated without turning around. He intuition told him that he could not continue to rush, otherwise the five thousand people would be gone.

The King of Tianzhu on the other side also encountered this situation. He did the same thing as Murong Shun's - retreating. At this time, he was only deeply afraid. These group of Songzhou defenders were too terrible. Not only were they well-equipped, but they also had secret moves one after another.

But when he turned around and ran away, he was desperate again. A bloody Songzhou cavalry appeared in his eyes. The horses of these cavalry took neat steps. The rumbling sound was like thunder in the sky, and the earth seemed to be trembling. The Tuyuhun cavalry was in chaos. No one was willing to fight with these cavalry again and escape from their own lives.

Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda led the cavalry to rush left and right among the fleeing Tuyuhun cavalry, like driving the remaining Tuyuhun cavalry back to the camp.

"Hahaha... Old Murong, you dare to open the door to fight!" Qin Huaiyu whispered a long spear and shouted and cursed Murong Fuyun standing on the guardhouse.

Murong Fuyun's face turned red and green, and red again and again. He didn't expect that the fighting power of these Songzhou cavalry was so strong. He watched with his own eyes the four Tuyuhun cavalry surrounded one Songzhou cavalry and chopped for a long time. The man was not injured at all, and in the end he killed all four Tuyuhun cavalry.

Niu Jinda also laughed, but he understood that it was not appropriate to fight at this time. The Tuyuhun army had not lost its combat effectiveness yet, so he said to Qin Huaiyu: "Huaiyu should not fight, hurry up and clean the battlefield. The war horses are good things, so don't be taken back by the Tuyuhun people."

Tuyuhun retreated in a panic, and many soldiers eventually abandoned their horses and fled. Now there are abandoned war horses everywhere on the battlefield, some abandoned, some died in battle, and many injured war horses lying on the ground, and they seemed to be unable to survive.

Qin Huaiyu looked back and saw that there were at least tens of thousands of war horses on the battlefield. Now Tuyuhun was scared and dared not fight. He turned his horse's head and shouted, "The soldiers drove all the horses back."

Upon hearing this, the soldiers lined up in a row and began to drive away the war horses.

On the city wall, Li Yan smiled and handed the telescope to Zhu Youzhi, "This guy Qin Huaiyu finally has some skills!"

Zhu Youzhi was also shocked, "It is true that Qin Huaiyu and General Niu are brave, but the gap between armor and weapons is the foundation for the victory of this battle. The plate armor and the compound bow are really one of the extreme shields and the other is the extreme attack."

Li Yan thought it was natural. This plate armor was the equipment that dominated Europe in the 16th century, and most cold weapons were helpless against it. What's more, Li Yan's plate armor was made of high-strength hard aluminum alloy purchased from modern times, and there is no need to mention the power of the composite bow even if it is modern army.

At this time, five thousand infantrymen were cleaning the battlefield. Facing the Songzhou soldiers who were like steel fortresses, most of the Tuyuhun soldiers chose to surrender, and those who resisted stubbornly were also shot and killed by archers.

Looking at the chaotic battlefield, Li Yan told Zhu Youzhi: "It's too slow to rely on soldiers to clean up these battlefields. Go and mobilize the people of Songzhou to clean up the battlefield. All the intact war horses and weapons are collected back to the camp. The injured war horses and those dead war horses will be distributed to the people. There will be a fierce battle to save the soldiers' physical strength!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhu Youzhi took the order to get off the city wall.

The news of the first victory was soon spread in Songzhou City under Zhu Youzhi's deliberate publicity. The people opened their doors and rushed to the streets. After some brave people walked around outside the city, they even publicized the news of the victory of the Songzhou defenders after they came back. The people were relieved and rushed out of the city and cleaned the battlefield under the command of soldiers. After that, they were crowded and powerful, the battlefield was quickly cleaned up.

The people were relieved. Songzhou City quickly regained its usual noisy, but the army in Tuyuhun outside the city was still there. In preliminary statistics, Tuyuhun only lost 15,000 people in this battle, and did not hurt the bones.

"The plan for the evening continues. They definitely wouldn't have thought that we would climb the mountains and attack directly from their camp in the evening. Zhu Youzhi's mission is given to you by unified command. If anyone dares not listen to your command, you will tie him up directly." Li Yan re-arranged the attack at night, and this battle will determine the outcome.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhu Youzhi replied, Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda were embarrassed and dared not speak.

"Niu Jinda and I personally led the cavalry to pursue him. This time, we can't make any mistakes." Li Yan's side was not without losses. One hundred and twenty cavalry were slightly injured, thirty-three were seriously injured, and twenty were trampled on by war horses. This number made Li Yan feel so painful. Although such a record was enough for other troops, this number could have been reduced, because none of the infantry and archers who were guarding the trenches died in battle, only a few were slightly injured.

Li Yan originally wanted to deal with the two, but Zhu Youzhi advised Li Yan to talk about it after the battle tonight. Although the two of them had disobeyed on the battlefield, they had made contributions, otherwise they would not have been able to achieve such a victory. The punishment at this time inevitably made them feel a knot in their hearts and affected their sneak attack tonight.

The generals were ordered to lead their own teams from the small path in the south of the city to the forest on the side of the camp in Tuyuhun. The cavalry who had just experienced the war in Songzhou City also had a meal and took a rest.

Unlike the festive scene in Songzhou City, the Tuyuhun Camp was filled with a strange atmosphere at this time. The Tuyuhun soldiers no longer looked arrogant, but were strangely like eggplant beaten by frost, and were wilted.

"Father Khan, retreat! There is no chance of winning if you continue to fight." Murong Shun almost said in a pleading tone in Tuyuhun's tent.

Murong Fuyun remembered the scene of being humiliated by Qin Huaiyu during the day. He was so angry that he kicked Murong Shun in the stomach, "You coward, have you lived with Tangren for a few years, have you forgotten the bloodiness of our Tuyuhun? If you don't take this revenge, what kind of face do I have to be this khan?"

Murong Shun staggered to the ground. In such an occasion, Murong Fuyun was humiliated like this. His blood suddenly surged and his face turned red. He had been dissatisfied with Murong Fuyun's deposed position as the prince for a long time, and at this time he was extremely desperate for this father Khan.

King Tianzhu pretended to help Murong Shun up, but his eyes were filled with sarcasm. Murong Shun looked at it and was even more angry and shook off King Tianzhu's hand.

Murong Fuyun was not stingy yet. Seeing Murong Shun treating his confidant minister like this, he raised his hand to beat him. At this time, the king of Tianzhu said: "Khan, now is not the time to be angry. The defenders of Songzhou should not be underestimated. We should still make a long-term plan."

A general stood up and said, "Khan, the Songzhou garrison has only three thousand cavalry. If we had not divided our troops to attack today and were attacked by the Tang people, we would not have suffered such heavy losses. Tomorrow we will join forces together and we will definitely be able to kill these cavalry."

"Well, what's right." Murong Fuyun nodded, "I was careless today, but our troops are still five times that of the Tang people. I will rest for one night tonight, and I will have to avenge the humiliation tomorrow."

Looking at Murong Fuyun looking at other conceited generals, Murong Shun knew that it would be useless to persuade him, and he didn't want to continue to persuade him. Maybe Murong Fuyun had never looked at him, because he was not a pure Tuyuhun person, and his blood still had half of the blood of the Han people. (To be continued...)
