Chapter 434: Lure and Annihilate the Huns Cavalry (Part 2)

Mu Nata urged the cavalry to rush all the way, and finally caught up with the group of cavalry when they were approaching the southeast corner of the city wall of Luoyang. What made Mu Nata feel strange was that after seeing the cavalry coming, the cavalry did not get on their horses and flee quickly, but dismounted and prepared to fight. The practice of the Han cavalry made Mu Nata sneer, and wanted to rely on infantry to resist the cavalry of the Great Huns. I really don't know what these Han people thought.

"Warriors of the Great Huns, rush up with me and kill these Han dogs!" Seeing that the Han army was getting closer, Mu Nata drew out his scimitar, pointed forward, and shouted loudly;

"kill..."

"Oh Ha..."

"Whoa whoa..."

The Huns cavalry took off the horned bows hanging from the horses and took them to their left hands. While controlling the horses with their right hands, they prepared to take out a bow and arrow, ready to ride and shoot, and then they all screamed strangely and headed straight in the direction of the Luoyang army. Come rushing. According to the practice of the Huns cavalry, first three rounds of cavalry and shooting, then they used scimitars to tear the defense line of the Han army, and after that, it was a one-sided tushā.

It's a pity that this time they are destined to disappoint them. Before they entered the range of the bow and arrow, the Hun cavalry rushing to the front suddenly fell off their horses inexplicably, and the cavalry following behind were caught off guard and directly hit The horse that had already fallen on the ground also fell to the ground. Although some cavalrymen with excellent riding skills jumped off the horse when they saw the opportunity, they were quickly hit by the cavalry rushing from behind. For a while, the Huns in the front row fell On the way to attack. The centurions and thousand commanders at the back discovered the situation ahead immediately, but the entire road was only more than one mile wide, and only the middle could accommodate two or three horses in parallel. A few cavalry were lucky enough to rush to the front of the Luoyang army formation , and just had time to shoot one or two arrows, he was shot off his horse by a crossbow arrow from the Luoyang Army.

Mu Nata had already noticed the abnormality ahead, but now he was on the verge of breaking out, so he could only let the soldiers drive the injured horses to explore the way ahead. Even so, the Huns cavalry still lost hundreds of soldiers and horses. Seeing that the cavalry had finally reached the attacking distance of the bow and arrow, Mu Nata was a little relieved, thinking that this could teach these damned Han dogs some lessons. Who knows, after the cavalry shot two rounds of bows and arrows, although they caused some damage to the Luoyang army in the formation, soon, the Xiongnu cavalry who reached within a hundred steps ushered in a rain of arrows like flying locusts, and soon the number in front The platoon of Hun cavalry fell under the rain of arrows from the crossbowmen.

"Damn it, why do the Han dogs have so many crossbowmen? Aren't the crossbowmen all on the city wall?" Watching the Huns cavalry in front of them fall down one by one, Mu Nata stared angrily, and shouted at the commander beside him After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to let the second thousand-man team also come forward to participate in the attack. If it weren't for the fact that the place was too small, he would attack with three thousand cavalry. For the cavalry, the larger the area, the faster the attack. The better it goes.

After the second thousand people participated in the attack, the pressure on the Luoyang soldiers increased significantly. But the Huns did not realize that when the second thousand-man team joined the battle, the south gate of Luoyang City was quietly opened again, and teams of cavalry came out from the city, the number of which was as many as four or five thousand. These were led by Zhao Yu Three thousand Xiliang iron cavalry and the remaining fifteen hundred tiger and cardinal cavalry in Luoyang City. After the cavalry left the city, the city gate was closed again, and the cavalry outside the city formed a formation outside the moat under Zhao Yu's command, with the Xiliang iron cavalry in front and the tiger and cardinal cavalry behind, heading towards the cavalry battlefield in the east.

Two miles away, the cavalry soon arrived. When Zhao Yu's cavalry was about to reach the battlefield, the two thousand-man cavalry of the Huns had already formed a group with the soldiers led by Huang Wudie. Although the cavalry had not yet been able to break through The line of defense, but it also caused some damage to the spear guards and sword shield guards. The loud noise on the battlefield covered up the attacking cavalry of Zhao Yubu. When they were less than a mile away from the Hun cavalry, a Hun cavalry inadvertently turned around and found the murderous cavalry behind him.

"Enemy attack!"

A sharp cry startled Mu Nata and his team, who were concentrating on observing the battle ahead,

Everyone looked back, and their expressions changed drastically.

"Damn it, this is a trap of the Han dog! Send the order, turn the horse's head, and prepare to meet the enemy!" Munata roared;

"Quick, quick, let the horse run!"

"Quick, get ready to fight!"

For a while, the Huns cavalry panicked. He quickly turned his horse's head, ready to face the Han cavalry behind him. It's a pity that the Xiongnu cavalry at this time had no time to increase their horse speed, and at this time the Zhao Yubu cavalry had already increased the speed of their horses to the fastest speed, and they had already reached a hundred paces away in a short while.

"Xiliang cavalry, get ready to throw your spear!"

"drink!"

One hundred steps.

"Quick, shoot the arrows, shoot all these Han dogs to death!" Seeing that the Luoyang cavalry had reached the range of his bows and arrows, the Xiongnu general quickly ordered to shoot arrows. Unfortunately, the number of Xiongnu cavalry who was really ready for battle was too small. , In addition, shooting arrows while standing still on the horse, while the Xiliang iron cavalry was moving fast, the bow and arrow did not cause much damage to the Xiliang iron cavalry.

Eighty steps.

sixty steps.

"Throw a gun and attack! Throw!"

"kill..."

"Whizzing..."

With the huge momentum of the horses, three thousand throwing spears flew towards the Huns cavalry ahead.

"Puchi..."

"what..."

For a while, Hun cavalrymen were continuously hit by the flying spears. Although the attack distance of throwing guns is lower than that of bows and arrows, the degree of damage is far beyond what bows and arrows can compare. The same goes for heavy armor. Moreover, the attack speed of throwing spears is faster than that of bows and arrows. The distance of sixty steps is enough for Xiliang cavalry to attack with three rounds of throwing spears. After three rounds, only half of a thousand Hun cavalry can sit on horseback.

"Xiliang cavalry, kill..."

"Warriors of the Huns, kill..."

At this moment, the sound of the sons of the state was heard from the top of the Luoyang city. The Huns cavalry looked up at the top of the city, only to see countless archers standing on the top of the city. cavalry. If it was normal, the Huns cavalry would not be afraid of the archers on the city walls at all, because the fast-moving Huns cavalry were not only masters of bows and arrows, but also masters of riding, and they could completely avoid the attack of bows and arrows during the fast march. However, of the 3,000 Hun cavalry, only 2,000 are still sitting on horseback, and they are all still here, so they are the best targets for archers.
