  Chapter 803 An Unexpected Enemy in the Desert

It's not that the cavalry cannot engage in battle under harsh conditions, but that on relatively flat land, the cavalry can fully run and give full play to the advantages of the speed and strength of the battle formation. Different, it will also lead to the cavalry being unable to cooperate well with each other.

  Ma Yue was leading some Bingzhou cavalry, recruited Hu cavalry, and the first batch of Xianbei cavalry to entangle and bite each other. From time to time, some soldiers fell off their horses and disappeared into the billowing yellow dust.

  The battle between cavalry and cavalry is like two snakes, constantly swimming to bite and devour each other's waist, abdomen and tail, and at the same time, guard against being bitten by the opponent.

Charging into battle is the specialty of the Xiliang iron cavalry, but for the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, the fighting method is basically a constant circumcision, cutting the opponent's edge side by side, just like peeling an onion. Little by little, he tore the opponent's flesh and blood, and finally ate it.

   The Xianbei army did not have much advantage over Ma Yue's queue, but it still took time for Ma Yue to finish such a big meal, and he could not be disturbed by outsiders.

   It seems that the Xianbei people are really going to fight here...

  Looking at the second batch of Xianbei cavalry, Fei Qian thought to himself, this is to double-team the vanguard cavalry that will eat me first?

  How can this make it what it wants?

   Fei Qian bowed his hands to Yu Fuluo and said, "It seems that Shanyu is going to be troublesome."

   "You are too polite..."

  Yu Fuluo laughed, then drew out his saber, waved his hands back, and shouted, "Boys, come with me!"

The Southern Huns had just won a battle with Xianbei, and their morale was also high. In addition, the number of the Southern Huns was close to 6,000, and they also had a certain advantage. The Xianbei cavalry rushing from the right blocked it.

On the wide battlefield, on the left side are Ma Yue's Bingzhou cavalry and a mixed force of recruited cavalry, while on the right side is Yuvro's Southern Huns cavalry. Huge battle damage may be suffered...

   "Zhonglang!" Zhang Ji looked at the battle ahead, his blood was about to boil, and he couldn't help it anymore, so he moved closer to Fei Qian, "...This, it's time for someone to go to battle, right?"

   "No hurry..." Fei Qian looked at Zhang Ji, and then focused on the front. Fei Qian had made a plan for the Xianbei army to turn around and fight head-on, but what he didn't expect was that the Xianbei army came so fast, and the battle on the battlefield was so resolute...

   Four thousand on the left wing, four thousand on the right wing, okay, where are the five thousand or so Xianbei cavalry? The battle situation was indeed as Fei Qian had guessed, the Yinshan Xianbei Army's tactic was to involve the left and right wings, and then directly attack Fei Qian's central army, but when the Xianbei Army really appeared in front of it, this position was completely beyond Fei Qian's expectations expected...

  Just as Fei Qian was trying his best to distinguish whether there were new Xianbei cavalry in the distance, he suddenly heard Huang Xu's voice beside him: "Zhong Lang! Look here!"

  Fei Qian followed Huang Xu's hand to look, and saw that there was billowing yellow dust in the depths of the desert behind him!

This…

   This is the last cavalry in Xianbei!

  Damn it!

  When did the remaining Xianbei cavalry hide here? !

  The ox horn sounded in front, and the Xianbei people who were fighting on the left and right wings roared crazily almost at the same time, stalking Ma Yue and Yu Fuluo's troops desperately regardless of losses!

   Fei Qian suddenly felt a little cold in his palms, this Xianbei commander is so ruthless! Even in the case of defeat, he still has the idea of ​​winning the battle!

  The target of the last Xianbei cavalry that came out was Feiqian's main formation that fell behind!

  The barren desert has always been a forbidden area for life.

   This group of Xianbei people actually risked their lives, so resolutely, they hid some of them in the desert, risking the scorching heat and water shortage, and killed them at such a critical moment!

  Lonely Yu Huan handed the last almost dried-up water bag in his arms to the commander beside him, and said in a hoarse voice: "Drink... drink it! Then blow... blow the trumpet! blow the trumpet!"

   When the last word "number" came out, Lonely Yu Huan suddenly felt that his throat was cracked like a rotten wood chip, but there was no liquid flowing in the cracked throat, as if his mouth was still full of gravel.

The trumpeter pulled out the cork of the water bag, and then lifted the water bag high, accompanied by the ups and downs of the horse, sucking with all his strength, drank the last bit of water, and then dropped the empty water bag , stood up halfway, and raised the horn on his waist to his mouth...

  The low sound of horns spread far above the desert, and the yellow dust raised by the Xianbei cavalry was like a huge beast. It opened its mouth wide and bit fiercely at Fei Qian's position!

Now it doesn't look like Ma Yue and Yu Fuluo are intercepting the Xianbei army, but it seems that the Xianbei army is dragging the two of them to death. As long as Feiqian's central army is defeated, it will inevitably implicate those fighting on the front line Ma Yue and Yu Fuluo troops...

   Fei Qian's heart gradually sank.

   This is going to come up and fight for your life!

In Feiqian's original idea, this mixed formation under his own banner had certain advantages against the more than 10,000 cavalry of the Xianbei people, because no matter what, it was impossible to have enough battlefield positions for more than 20,000 cavalry from both sides to fight. It is fully deployed, so I have an advantage in personal equipment, and there are some Xiliang iron cavalry that can tear the battlefield and expand the results of the battle. There is not much problem in fighting this Yinshan Xianbei army head-on.

But now, although both Ma Yue and Yu Fuluo have certain advantages against the Xianbei cavalry, the remaining Xianbei army is not limited to the troops of the two major regiments fighting together, but comes from the direction of the desert , it is equivalent to expanding the entire contact area invisibly. In this way, Fei Qian's own side seems to be surrounded by three sides...

  Although the encirclement is not so thick, it feels completely different from ordinary soldiers.

   "Zhong Lang!" Huang Xu said eagerly, "Let's step back first!"

The Feiqian Army is still some distance away from the fighting troops in front, but it is too close to the Xianbei Army attacking from the desert. If they don't retreat, it is almost equal to the front line of the fighting. Needless to say, anyone can do it. clear…

  The last cavalryman of the Xianbei Army is like a horse that suddenly entered the chessboard, stepping straight on the middle palace!

  Retire?

   Still in?

  All eyes are on Fei Qian...

   Regardless of ancient times, even in modern wars, if the commander moves, basically the whole army will collapse...

   The Nanjing Massacre, the Japanese invasion, the commander of the national army took the lead in running away, and the result immediately collapsed...

   This is still the case when there is a phone call from the front line...

   The Han Dynasty didn’t even have a hair, it all relied on flags and golden drums, a slight change would shake the entire army’s morale...
