Eight Hundred and Eightieth IX Confrontation
The city gate opened, and the army slowly came out.
Kashuli didn't understand at first, but when he found out that Zhang Yu and the others were going out of the city to fight, he was very happy.
If Zhang Yu and the others were huddled in the city, unless he mobilized 300,000 troops, he would not have the confidence to defeat them at all, but now it was different, Zhang Yu and the others took the initiative to leave the city.
The field, Kashuli believed, completely crushed them.
"Haha, the Han army is looking for death. We can take this city in one day." Kashuli said excitedly, waving his sword.
Several generals around also had a smug expression, so smooth, so they couldn't help being happy.
"Throw away all the ladders, we don't need these things anymore," Ka Shuli said.
The Huns don't like to use ladders, let alone attack cities.
Going out to fight in the field now is exactly what they want most.
"Hehe, it's still an iron shell, but outside the city, even an iron coffin would have to smash him into pieces," Kashuli said.
Although the defenders of the city are not heavy infantry, they are well-equipped and their defense is absolutely strong.
But Kashuli didn't care. Outside the city, he was confident that there were many ways to destroy these Han troops.
The Xiongnu didn’t wear any armor, and their best attack method was fighting. If they couldn’t beat them, they would just circle around you, looking for an opportunity to attack, maybe flying a kite with a bow and arrow, preventing you from approaching, and slowly consuming you to death.
Of course, when dealing with ordinary troops, their warriors rushed up to kill, frightened the enemy with a burst of momentum, and dispersed the enemy's formation with cavalry.
The Huns naturally have their pride.
The tactics of the Xiongnu are the tactics of wolves. When you are strong, you look around and look for opportunities to strike. When you have no strength to fight back, a group of them will pounce on you and tear you to pieces.
Zhang Yu led the army out of the city gate. Their speed was very slow and their steps were very neat.
Tens of thousands of people are now a whole.
This neat pace gives people a kind of pressure.
The enemy listened in shock,
My own people listened and cheered up.
The Xiongnu didn't move all the time, and they were not in a hurry when they left the city. Kashuli was afraid of attacking too early and scaring the Han Rao army back, and it would be difficult for them to deal with.
"Form up." Zhang Yu shouted, and his own soldiers waved their flags.
In fact, Zhang Yu and the others were already arranging the formation during the movement, and when they were on the battlefield, a little arrangement would form a complete formation.
The front is semi-elliptical, distributed in several layers, and each layer is full of thick shields.
Then came the spearmen, and then a large number of archers.
These archers also carry knives. They are not archers without melee capabilities, but archers with very strong melee capabilities.
Zhang Yu asked the archers to have the ability of ordinary infantry, throw away the bow and arrow, and be able to fight as infantry when they draw their swords.
Then there are layers of phalanxes in the back, and there are gaps in the queue, so the formation can be changed calmly.
This is a huge iron box, and it is not so easy for the Huns to open it.
And the last one is naturally the 20,000 cavalry led by Lu Bu.
Although the 20,000 cavalry are well-equipped, they are definitely not the opponents of the 100,000 Huns, even if they are led by Lu Bu.
"My sons, kill the Han army in front of you, and the whole Youzhou will be ours." Kashuli shouted loudly.
"Kill kill kill~"
The Xiongnu boiled up, and the Han army in front of them was similar to their sheep on the grassland.
They are all warriors of the grassland, and they have absolute strength to kill them all.
The Huns showed bloodthirsty light one by one.
The 100,000 soldiers and horses in Youzhou were not affected by the morale of the enemy, and they still stood silently on the battlefield.
Zhang Yu's face was calm, and he had carefully thought about this decisive battle with the grassland.
One can quickly end this war.
Second, it can deter the Huns.
Three to protect other places from too much damage.
There are other reasons, but these three reasons plus Zhang Yu's certainty of victory are enough.
Zhang Yu's formation has a mountainous sense of thickness, cast with military armor and heavy shields.
"Send two teams of 10,000 people to attack from the front, and one team of 10,000 people to attack from the side." Kashuli ordered.
Although I am confident to destroy the Han army in front of me, but seeing the strict layout of the Han army, I don't know how powerful this formation is, so I sent 30,000 people to test it.
Twenty thousand people charged forward.
"Pike array."
The best way to deal with cavalry is a shield and a spear.
"Warriors, kill."
"Destroy the sheep."
The Xiongnu army came to kill them, and they could see their hideous faces, as if they were demons.
"Bang bang bang~"
The Huns were not afraid of death, and directly rushed into the spear array under Zhang Yubu, and a group of cavalry ran into the shield and spears.
In fact, as long as the Xiongnu started to charge, there was no retreat, and they could turn around on the prairie, but when they got here, they could only move forward.
Forward, forward, even if it is a mountain of knives.
Tragic, the cavalry in front hit the shield and was filled with spears.
A group of shield formations composed of thousands of people fell down and were knocked down by the Huns.
The soldiers struggled against the shields, but the impact was too great.
The pikemen stabbed the cavalry with their long spears, and it took several people to stop the horses.
"Let the arrows go."
There are many archers in the formation. The distance was too far before, and Zhang Yu did not order to attack. Now that the soldiers are fighting hand-to-hand, it is a good time for the archers to attack.
The archers draw their bows fully. They are very experienced archers and can already judge the approximate distance.
The arrow pierced through the air with a burst of hostility.
The sharp arrow full of hatred pierced the enemy's formation and brought down a group of enemies.
The battlefield is so bloody, many people die at once, and blood splatters.
However, Zhang Yu's eyes were silent. These sacrifices were the helplessness of the times. Zhang Yu still gave orders calmly, as if the dead people had nothing to do with him.
It's not that Zhang Yu is indifferent, but that the battlefield is ruthless.
"Pikemen, step forward."
Zhang Yu ordered, and a team of spearmen in the rear naturally stepped forward and stabbed the enemy.
After being forced to stop by the shield formation, the Xiongnu's combat power dropped sharply, and they had no impact. It was not so easy to break through this formation.
The pikemen stepped forward and ruthlessly assassinated the horses or the enemies on the horses with the spears in their hands.
They stepped on the corpses or blood of their companions.
On the side, the Xiongnu's charge was also blocked by the shield array.
Zhang Yu's army was like a huge hedgehog, stinging the Huns.
Kashuli looked at the battlefield calmly, and he expected that the first trial attack would be as successful as he expected, after all, this Youzhou is not an ordinary army.
"Withdraw."
Without the impact force, the formation of the Han army is complete, and it is too disadvantageous to continue fighting.
After a trial, Kashuli also knew that the enemy's formation was not simple and could not be broken easily.
"Let me slowly knock you open layer by layer. Today I will step on your corpses and tell the world that the Huns have no burden," Ka Shuli said, licking his lips.
