Three Kingdoms

Chapter 799 Time difference on the battlefield

The battle with Xianbei Youdanghu went smoothly.

In addition to the Xianbei people being a little careless, there is another obvious reason, which is that the equipment of the Han army's cavalry is indeed much higher than that of the Xianbei people.

Fei Qian now leads these Bingzhou wolf cavalry. They are no longer the poor and embarrassed frontier troops they were before, even similar to the Hu people. With the standard ordnance and equipment, the Han army cavalry has not only improved its defense, but also Both distance combat and melee combat capabilities have been greatly enhanced.

Perhaps the equipment of one or two people does not matter, but the same is true for the entire army. Such a warrior who has experienced battles, has courage and strength, compared with the soldiers and horses the Xianbei people gathered from the tribe, Although he may be slightly inferior in riding skills, in other aspects, he is already far superior.

When the arrows were fired at each other, the difference in lethality had actually doomed Xianbei's army to destruction. It ran but failed to run away, and failed to fight again and again. Failure became inevitable.

The Southern Huns screamed excitedly, and their slight fear of the Xianbei people was basically wiped away, while their awe for Fei Qian became even higher.

For the Southern Huns, they don't know what the overall battle plan is, and they don't know where they will go in the future, but they know that now they have won, they have defeated the Xianbei people, even the Qiang people back then Qu Shanyu also kept a distance from the ferocious Xianbei people, but now he managed to put away such a Xianbei army without paying much cost.

In this way, the Xianbei people are actually not terrible...

Fei Qian didn't have to worry too much about gathering the Xianbei prisoners. The languages ​​of the Xiongnu and Xianbei were actually not much different, but there were some differences and changes in accents. So when the southern Huns shouted and ordered the Xianbei with these avatars, When we were soldiers, there wasn't much difficulty in communicating.

As for the Huqi who were recruited by Fei Qian in the early days, they had long been accustomed to using captured Xianbei people as laborers. Naturally, they began to organize themselves with familiarity, screened the prisoners, and singled out those with higher official positions for separate custody. After ordinary Xianbei people lost their leader, a lot of instability factors were naturally reduced.

As for the trophies, these accustomed Hu people also gathered them up automatically and spontaneously. The uninjured war horses naturally became Fei Qian's most valued supplies, while those with some minor injuries were given to Huvroud. On the one hand, When it comes to maintaining and treating horses, Hu Ren is more professional. On the other hand, since he wants Yu Fuluo to follow him, of course he must also give him some sweeteners.

As for those low-quality swords and armors, Fei Qian really didn't like them. They were not even worth transporting them back to Pingyang for re-forging, which was a lot of trouble and labor, so he simply gave them all to Yuvluo.

The Southern Huns were naturally smiling, and the even happier person was Zhang Ji.

This time, after killing Xianbei's Youda Danghu, Zhang Ji couldn't even close his mouth with laughter. Although he was still modestly saying that it was Fei Qianfei Zhonglang who gave him this opportunity to show his face, but the joy was even after a couple of seconds. It can be seen from 100 meters away.

Seeing Zhang Ji's joy in the Xiliang Cavalry, Fei Qian also smiled. However, in these battles, the powerful impact of the Xiliang Cavalry was fully demonstrated. If he did not rely on the position like Fei Qian, then It is still not easy to resist such heavy armored cavalry on flat ground when using crossbows to fire.

However, the weight of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is too high, and not all horses can bear it. Imagine a pony in Sichuan, and then put on such a high weight. It is probably problematic to even trot, let alone sprint.

I think back when Mr. Guan Erye was walking to Maicheng and was knocked down by a horse rope, it was probably not Guan Yu's fault, but the red rabbit horse was too old. There was no way. Is there any horse that can be replaced...

Therefore, Xiliang cavalry can only be of Xiliang origin, tall horses with some Dawan bloodline. However, Bingzhou, which is similar to the Mongolian horses of later generations, although strong in endurance, is still inferior in strength and explosive power.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he has always emphasized the dominance of the Western Regions, and even went to war with the Western Regions over horses. In fact, there may not be a factor of competing for precious resources like Xiliang horses. Unfortunately, later people only saw the military expenditure and did not see it. War horses changed the entire war.

Now among Fei Qian's troops, the number of cavalry and infantry has basically reached one to one. Although there are still a considerable number of Hu cavalry, such a high proportion is very shocking at the moment. You must know that in Now, even Yuan Shao in Jizhou has almost the same number of cavalry as Fei Qian, while Yuan Shu and Cao Cao basically rely on infantry.

But having said that, not to mention Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, the number of infantry currently recruited by Cao Cao is estimated to have exceeded Fei Qian's entire force...

The territory occupied by these people has a large population and a large base. Most of the soldiers can be given a spearhead, which is completely different from the elite soldier route Fei Qian is taking now.

Seeing that everything was basically done on the battlefield, Fei Qian asked Yuvrou to be invited.

Yuvluo did not expect that the ambush of the Xianbei people would be so smooth. He also formally saw the ferocity of the Xiliang cavalry. He had to be convinced of Fei Qian's current strength. Therefore, after seeing Fei Qian, he respectfully prepared He saluted, but was held back by Fei Qian.

Fei Qian smiled and said: "The Chanyu is here, come on, no need to be polite, please sit down."

"Thank you, Zhonglang." After the battle, Humphrey's face had some luster and look. Although this victory was achieved under He Fei Qian's arrangement, those tribesmen didn't know it. They only knew that they had defeated the Xianbei people. Their Chanyu was not a softie. Naturally, the previous rumors disappeared without a trace. .

"The success of this attack is inseparable from Shan Yu's help..."

Fei Qian did not take the credit and be arrogant, but fully affirmed Yu Fuluo's role, "However, although the war here is temporarily over, the overall threat has not yet been resolved... Chanyu, if there are two tribes and one is weak and can be bullied, If you had to choose one to fight someone who is as powerful as you, which one would you choose?"

Yuvro shook his head and said: "Well...normally you should choose the weak one, right?"

Fei Qian nodded and said: "Yes, if the strength we show is too weak, then the Xianbei people will naturally think that we are easy to bully, but once the Xianbei people realize that they will fight with us, they will use all their strength. Not everyone is willing to accept it... So now we have to make the Xianbei people realize that it is not easy to touch here, and it will hurt if we touch it..."

Borrowing arrows from a straw boat: Zhuge hurriedly and Lu Su and all the soldiers, including the cook, went to the other side of the boat and hung themselves up, using their body weight to turn around... Why is there a cook? Zhuge Liang and Lu Su were drinking and eating on the boat, why couldn't they do it themselves? As the arrows on both sides were filled with arrows, Zhuge proudly asked his soldiers to shout thank you to Cao for sending the arrows, and then ordered to sail back... After a while, the soldiers rushed in: "No! Cao's soldiers were furious after hearing the shouting. We're catching up!" Lu Su asked cutely: "Do you have any good ideas, sir?" Zhuge: "Then...that fart, run away quickly!" The soldier cried sadly: "I can't run, our ship is too overloaded. incredible……"
