Chapter 353 This is the Daqin Cavalry?

Maodun's thoughts were really beautiful, but the reality soon made him feel a little unresponsive to what happened.

Because the battle took place at night, Maodun didn't care much at the beginning. He just determined that there were only two teams of cavalry with tens of thousands of people in two directions attacking his team. Therefore, Maodun naturally liked to divide his troops and resist. In his opinion, even if there were nearly 100,000 cavalry coming from Daqin, he was not afraid, because his cavalry, a cavalry that could kill Daqin, would not be able to use dawn, and these tens of thousands of Daqin cavalry would be solved.

But before dawn was dawn, less than an hour passed, Maodun, who was commanding his cavalry forward wave after wave, received a report from his generals, saying that the combat effectiveness of the Qin cavalry on both sides far exceeded that of the Huns' cavalry. If this continues, destroying ten thousand Qin cavalry, the Huns would lose at least 20,000 to 30,000 troops.

"Oh? Why are the Great Qin cavalry suddenly so powerful?"

Maodun still knew a little about the ability of the Great Qin cavalry. He knew even more that the reason why the Huns seemed to have never won the battle with the Great Qin was largely due to Meng Tian.

And now, Meng Tian is definitely not here. Maodun doesn't believe that there are more powerful than Meng Tian and better understand the generals of the Huns in the territory of the Qin Dynasty. Even if there are, this is a battle between the two sides of the narrow road. It really depends on the strength of the soldiers. Under such circumstances, why are the warriors of the Huns not as good as the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty? This made Maodun a little confused for a moment.

"Shanyu, the armor and weapons of the Qin soldiers were all different from those led by Meng Tian before. Their weapons seemed to be able to restrain the weapons of our Huns..."

Since this general could find that the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty seemed to be able to restrain the cavalry of the Huns, he naturally tried it himself, and only came to inform Maodun after discovering some problems.

"weapon……"

When Maodun heard this, a cold air suddenly emerged from his heart. From Xiang Yu's mouth, he already knew that Gao, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, was very smart and had a lot of wisdom. This time he came to attack Daqin. Although he didn't know what role Xiang Yu played in it, it was a foregone conclusion that he had fallen into the Qin Dynasty's plan.

So Maodun began to think in reverse here. He suddenly thought that if he was Gongzi Gao, he would not have the confidence to win, or if he had not found a way to restrain the Huns' cavalry, he would not have such an ambush here, but would have placed most of his troops around Xianyang to resist the possible attacks of the Huns.

"This matter seems to be very bad, let's go and watch it..."

Although Maodun felt something bad in his heart, he was not a timid person. He knew that even if he died this time, he had to understand that the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty suddenly changed from a single combat capability to one who could at least kill two of his cavalry. Maodun had never suffered such anger.

Soon, under the protection of several generals, Maodun came to the front of the formation. The Huns' cavalry was indeed as he had imagined before, and they all attacked the Qin soldiers who were rushing out of him without fear of death, but Maodun soon discovered something was wrong.

Originally, the biggest advantage of the Huns and Qin soldiers was their great riding skills. If a cavalry of Qin fought with the cavalry of Huns, the Huns would be killed by the cavalry in almost one round. If the cavalry of Huns was killed, half of his life would be almost gone. Basically, if he had another knife, he would have harvested a head.

But this battle tonight was not the case at all. Maodun observed for a while and found that Qin Bing's butt seemed to be firmly fixed on the horse's back. He could kick off a Qin Bing with one kick before, but now he kicked him, but he almost didn't lose even the balance. He often looked back while the Hun cavalry was stunned...

The wrong things Maodun discovered were not just these. The weapons carried by the Great Qin cavalry were basically long weapons such as spears. Although these weapons were long, they could only be assassinated and rarely could be cut and killed. The Huns were different. The Huns were matched with short spears and long swords. With the cooperation of the two, they were much more flexible than the Great Qin weapons. As long as a Great Qin cavalry did not stab the enemy at once, their lives would be in a bad state.

But now, Maodun found that almost none of the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty used that kind of spear. Their hands were all black long swords. Although this sword looked a bit heavy, it was really useful in the hands of these Qin Dynasty soldiers. In this way, they compared the Hun weapons that were not predominant in length. You can't reach others at all. If you really try hard to get close to them, they will cut them down with one sword, which will be the life of the Hun cavalry.

After watching for a long time, Maodun also found that there were more than just changes in the Qin cavalry. Whenever the Hun cavalry was indistinguishable from the Qin cavalry, there were always some Qin cavalry who had been cruising around on the periphery to pick up a short Qin crossbow from their horses, and they immediately turned down the chest cavalry fighting with their partners. They didn't need to hang their bows and shoot them at all. They picked them up and shot them, and died if they were hit by the arrows.

It doesn't matter when he saw it. After reading it, Maodun felt that all his qi and blood were heading towards his head. He never expected that when the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty turned out like this. If he gave such equipment to Meng Tian, ​​Maodun even doubted whether Meng Tian would try to destroy him.

His eyes glanced in front of him again, and Maodun finally felt that he might have been wrong this time. His thoughts were so beautiful that he completely underestimated the progress of Daqin. The current Daqin is no longer the Daqin he learned from the mouths of his father's generation.

Maodun knew that it was time for him to retreat. If he could stop this, he would only lose all the strength of the Huns that had been hidden for almost decades.

"The order... Huh? I'll go quickly to transport the body of the Qin cavalry and the war horses!"

Mao Dun, who was about to order his retreat, suddenly a glimmer flashed in his eyes when he lowered his head. He found something, something he had never seen before, but this thing appeared in a very critical position, that is, the feet of the cavalry. His intuition told him that the secret of the Qin cavalry becoming very powerful may be here.

Although the generals under Maodun almost didn't know what their Shanyu was going to do, they naturally had to listen to Maodun's orders, so without saying a word, several people followed the body of a Qin soldier who was closer to them.

Soon, people and horses were taken to Maodun. In fact, in such a battle between cavalry and cavalry, people were quite easy to die, but war horses were not very easy to die. These war horses were shot to death by a Hun man with a crossbow, which was just right, and fell into Maodun's eyes.

"What is that? Take it up quickly!"

Maodun's eyes were directly staring at the dead war horse, and he could see the stirrups that were still hanging on both sides of the war horse.

Soon, the pair of stirrups arrived in front of Maodun. He looked at the structure of the stirrups carefully, and then looked at the postures of the Great Qin cavalry riding on horses in the distance. Suddenly, he learned the secret that the Great Qin soldiers could have such a great improvement in combat power in such a short time.

"Give up this battle and evacuate quickly!"

After putting the stirrup on his war horse, Maodun gritted his teeth and issued such an order. He knew that the battle was meaningless. If he lost more than 100,000 cavalry here, even if he could wipe out all the Qin soldiers who set up an ambush here, he would not be able to support them to capture the Xianyang City of Qin.

If Mao Dun was still filled with frustration just now, when he got the stirrup in his hand, the haze in his heart was swept away.

Obviously, this is an amazing secret. If a war horse hadn't happened to die not far in front of him, he would probably not know how long it would take to be discovered such a secret. With such a secret, he believed that when he came to the territory of Daqin again, cavalry of this level would definitely not be the opponent of his soldiers.

After Maodun ordered the evacuation, the Huns' cavalry immediately retreated like a tide. Indeed, they fought quite awkwardly in this battle. In the past, the cavalry was just a Qin cavalry in the sky and underground. This time, I don’t know what happened, but they all became masters of cavalry. In addition, their weapons were suppressed by the weapons of the Qin cavalry, and these Huns cavalry had long been fucked. When they heard that Shanyu actually ordered the withdrawal, they were all happy.

"General, the Huns retreated!"

Han Xin was watching the cavalry he trained to kill the Huns, which was over two hours, and almost caused 20,000 to 30,000 to the Huns' cavalry, but his casualties were not even 10,000.

Of course, there are many reasons such as terrain, but this is the result. Han Xin originally imagined that by the time Meng Tian arrived here in a few more hours, he would probably have killed 70,000 to 80,000 Huns.

But suddenly, the Huns retreated like this, which was a bit unexpected for Han Xin.

"What, retreat? Didn't the Huns refuse to give in? Why did they retreat in just two or three hours after attacking our territory of Qin?"

Soon, Sima Xin also came to Han Xin's body panting, almost covered with blood, but there seemed to be no one inside. As soon as he saw Han Xin's face, Sima Xin had a question, that is, the Huns had already begun to retreat rhythmically, whether to chase or not.

Moreover, Sima Xin experienced it clearly before. He had already put out all the roads to Han Xin. If he didn't chase them, the Huns would eventually retreat and the losses would be more than 50,000, which was already a big victory for the Qin Dynasty.

But if we chase after the Huns, once they run out of the Great Wall, it will be a real large open space. If we chase the Huns on it, it will be a bit difficult. If they turn over and fight back, it will probably be a loss-win situation.

Han Xin frowned after hearing this. Obviously, such a change was contrary to the previous fighting style of the Huns and was an unplanned change. At this moment, he could not send someone to Xianyang to ask for instructions on what the emperor should do about this matter. He could only make a decision by himself and then take responsibility for his decision to the end. In this case, if the troops remained unmoved, it was obviously the safest way.

But after a moment of silence, Han Xin gritted his front teeth tightly and squeezed out a few words from the gap: "The whole army attacks, and pursues the Huns with all their might!"

"This... our army's strength is not as strong as the Huns!" Although Sima Xin was very brave, she couldn't help but remind Han Xin at this moment.

"General Meng Tian should be on the territory of the Huns. Once these Huns meet General Meng Tian on a narrow road during the retreat, General Meng Tian will be in danger. We need to chase him out even when we are facing General Meng Tian!"

When Sima Xin saw that Han Xin had said this, he thought to himself, stop saying anything, just throw his arms around and do it! So at the front of the formation, the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty followed closely the Hun cavalry who retreated quickly and began to cover up the killing.

According to Maodun's original idea, the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty was not fools. If they retreated, it was a situation that the Qin people were very happy to see. According to common sense, they would definitely not chase after them.

However, as Qin soldiers chased and fired Qin crossbows behind them, Maodun knew that he might not be able to escape this battle.
