Qubei looked at the city gate of Zhiguan and couldn't help but frown. Team after team of cavalry rushed in, but apart from the increasingly faint shouts of killing, there was no news of victory at all! Is this a city gate, or the mouth of an insatiable monster? !
He looked at the top of the city. Although soldiers had already rushed up, the breach had never been able to expand and only occupied two or three battlements. Qubei even had the idea that the reason why the other party let the Huns rush to the city wall was entirely to avoid the Huns' bow and arrow advantage and to fight them head-on.
He gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Batu, cover and shoot the city! Shoot five times quickly!"
Hearing his order, Batu was stunned for a moment and said anxiously: "King, there are still our tribesmen above!"
"Batu?!" Qubei didn't explain, but just roared angrily.
Batu looked at his gloomy expression, did not dare to refute, and ordered loudly. When the archers under the city heard the order, they couldn't help but pause subconsciously. Seeing that the commander had no intention of changing, they released their bows and arrows.
It has to be said that although the move of Qubei was insidious and vicious, it hit the weak point of the defenders. Ordinary soldiers were completely unprepared, and many fell under the arrows. Even Cao Ren was hit by two arrows! It was only because the armor on his body was of good quality that he was not seriously injured!
After five rounds of lasing, a large blank space suddenly appeared on the city wall. The Huns soldiers immediately climbed up the city wall from more crenels, taking advantage of the favorable opportunity before Cao Jun's reinforcements arrived, and rushed to kill them!
Cao Ren shouted loudly: "Come closer to me! Come closer to me!"
While shouting, Cao Ren swept the spear in his hand, fought his way out, and rushed to the crenel.
A Xiongnu Qianhu who had just climbed up the city wall roared angrily, raised his big guillotine and chopped off Cao Ren's head.
Cao Ren had no way to avoid it, so he could only raise the spear in his hand to block it. Hearing a click, the spear in his hand was cut into two pieces by the Qianhu!
The Qianhu man laughed ferociously, and the guillotine in his hand swept forward and slashed at Cao Ren's waist and abdomen.
There were soldiers fighting all around, and Cao Ren had no room to dodge. He gritted his teeth, broke the gun in his hand and stabbed forward. He would rather die with these thousands of families than let him seize the crenel again.
There was a pop, and the tip of the broken spear suddenly pierced the Qianhu's throat, but Cao Ren didn't feel any pain. When he looked down, he saw that his bodyguard Xiao Duzi was blocking the guillotine with his body, and his body was covered in blood!
The guillotine was a sharp weapon that Qian Hu of the Huns had polished day by day. It suddenly cut open the little calf's intestines, but the little calf's hands were like iron hoops, hooping the Qian Hu's hands. He could neither retreat nor dodge, so he died unjustly under Cao Ren's gun!
Cao Ren shouted in a trembling voice: "Little calflittle calf!"
There was no answer, the little calf had died on the spot! Cao Ren roared angrily, pulled out his guillotine, and with one sweep, he beheaded the two Huns who were sneaking into the city. He roared angrily: "Cao Ren is here, the Huns will die quickly!!!"
If Qubei was still under the city, he would definitely have ordered his troops to concentrate on shooting Cao Ren. But now Qubei has rushed into the city gate with his guards. Batu, who is responsible for commanding the archers, is only busy supporting Qubei. How can he care about the city head? !
Arrows continued to shoot diagonally from the top of the city gate tower, hitting Li Dian's infantry square and making loud clanging noises against the shields.
The soldiers had to guard against the arrows thrown at them and the direct fire from the Huns on the opposite side. They missed the other and were constantly hit by arrows and fell to the ground. The 500 men under Li Dian only fought on this long street for a quarter of an hour before losing more than 200 of them. The remaining 300 soldiers could only barely maintain their formation and retreat while fighting.
Liao Hua, who finally built the barricade fortifications, shouted loudly: "Li Dian, withdraw quickly! Use the fortifications to defend against the enemy cavalry!"
Li Dian also wanted to retreat, but facing the Huns' elite cavalry, he had no chance to retreat safely! Li Dian gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "The whole army attacks!"
While shouting, Li Dian threw down his shield and rushed towards the Huns.
Whoever brings out soldiers will have the same temperament! Hearing his cry, the soldiers roared angrily: "All the troops attack!" They all dropped their wooden shields and rushed towards the Huns.
Arrows continued to fall on Cao¡¯s soldiers, but as long as there was still breath left, the soldiers rushed forward with all their strength. After everyone broke through the arrow blockade, the Huns did not dare to continue shooting, and they all rushed forward brandishing their sabers.
"If the battle is on the plains and the cavalry have room to gallop, then Li Dian and these sword and shield bearers are going to die. ?However, the battlefield between the two sides was limited to this narrow street, and there were hundreds of corpses of civilians on the ground. It was not easy for the Huns cavalry to turn their horses, so they had no choice but to fight hard with Cao's soldiers. As a result, the cavalry's speed advantage and impact power could not be used, and they were beaten back by Li Dian's troops.
Seeing that the Huns' formation was in chaos and Li Dian's troops were running out, Liao Hua shouted: "Charge the whole army!" He personally led the soldiers to charge forward.
Seeing the continuous flow of Cao's troops, the Huns cavalry who rushed into the city couldn't help but feel a little timid. They were beaten back by Li Dian and Liao Hua and were about to be driven out of the city.
Qubei was furious when he saw this, and shouted loudly: "Sir, Heavenly Wolf God, how can my descendants of the Great Huns not be able to defeat the Han people?! Those who advance will be heavily rewarded, and those who retreat will die!"
Hearing his cry, Chi Na, the captain of the personal guards of Qubei, rushed into the city gate with dozens of personal guards. Seeing Li Dian and others getting closer and closer, Chi Na shouted loudly: "Throw the spear!"
After hearing his order, the guards took a short gun from their backs and threw it forward with all their strength.
Seeing this scene, Li Dian and Liao Hua were horrified and quickly waved their weapons to block. Finally, due to their superb martial arts skills and the fact that the Huns were not very accurate and did not concentrate on shooting them, Li Dian and Liao Hua escaped smoothly. However, the two men were much more miserable. They were either nailed to the ground on the spot or left with a large penetrating wound on their body. Almost all of the fifty or sixty Cao soldiers who rushed at the front fell to the ground!
China shouted again: "Throw the spear!"
The guards took off the second and last short spear, weighed it gently in their hands, and threw it in the direction of Cao Jun's soldiers.
Facing the opponent's spear, Cao Jun's soldiers still had no better response plan and could only speed up and rush forward. If you get shot, you're considered unlucky. If you don't, you'll have to fight the Huns to the end.
Three of them threw their spears and rushed toward Li Dian. Li Dian knocked down two of the spears. Regardless of his own image, he rolled to the side like a donkey and then hid. Not everyone was as lucky as him. More than 40 Cao Jun soldiers were hit by spears and fell helplessly to the ground.
The officers and soldiers of Cao's army all turned red-eyed and rushed over with roars of anger. Especially the spearmen around Liao Hua rushed towards the Huns' horses and stabbed them.
From the perspective of cavalry, war horses are their comrades and brothers. Seeing the bright swords and guns coming towards them, the soldiers subconsciously turned their horses to dodge. As a result, the cavalry formation suddenly became chaotic.
Having lost their speed and formation, the Huns cavalry who were surrounded by Cao¡¯s army were looking for death! Even senior veterans like Chi Na are trapped in a bitter battle. His opponent was Liao Hua, who was holding a fine iron long axe.
Hearing a roar, Liao Hua held an ax in both hands and slashed at Chi Na's thigh.
Chi Na wanted to move his horse to dodge, but he couldn't move in this narrow battlefield. He had no choice but to jump off his horse and hide to one side.
Liao Hua's ax did not hit Chi Na's thigh, but it hit the horse under his crotch. The war horse screamed and darted to the side, hitting Chi Na right in the air.
A war horse weighs at least three to four hundred kilograms. How can we underestimate its strength? Chi Na suddenly saw stars in his eyes. When he heard the fierce wind, he realized that the headless body on the ground was so familiar!
With just two moves, Chi Na was beheaded by Liao Hua on the spot!
??????????????????????????????????? Out of a bitter battle, even the Huns couldn't hold on, not to mention they were no match for the Han people!
Don¡¯t talk about being invincible in cavalry and shooting. Throughout Chinese history, as long as there was no large-scale civil strife in the Central Plains, the heart of the Central Plains would always be occupied by the Han people. Why the Han people have fertile land and warm climate is because their ancestors were brave and good at fighting and drove all the foreigners who coveted the Central Plains into the desert grasslands!
The Huns were wailing and screaming. They either dismounted and surrendered, or moved their horses to retreat. They had no determination to fight to the death with Cao's army.
Seeing that his men were defeated by Cao Jun, he was anxious when he went to Beidun. Isn¡¯t this just making King Zuo Xian laugh at him? Not long ago, his home base in Dongshan was attacked by Cao Jun. Now that he could not defeat Cao Jun in a frontal attack, how could he still have the dignity to brag about it, and how could he have the dignity to serve as the Righteous King? !
Qubei roared angrily: "Assemble the entire army!"
Hearing his order, the trumpeter beside Qubei immediately blew the call to assemble, and the Hun cavalry scattered on the battlefield quickly gathered in the direction of the sound. However, before Qubei could give the order to charge, he suddenly heard the sound of rapid horse hoofbeats from the gate of Zhiguan City, and heard someone shouting loudly in the wind: "We, Cao Jun, are victorious!"
After a period of fighting, the exhausted Qubei troops were defeated by Cao Jun. Considering that the main force of Huchuquan's command had not been lost, Cao Ang, Le Jin and others did not dare to pursue too much and could only withdraw their troops and return to the city.
Qubei, who was hit by two arrows in his arm, ran to Huchuquan angrily and asked anxiously: "King Zuo Xian, I finally lured Cao Jun out, why don't you take the opportunity to attack?!"
Luan Ti called Chuquan and pointed into the distance: "Be careful of cold arrows!"
Qubei roared angrily: "Don't change the subject, Cao Jun's bows and arrows can't hit here at all! Even that Xia Houyuan can't ah!"
