?? (Thanks to Lovely Dong, ?Aming, ipooo, monthly pass for Dandelion in the Snow, hien Han, zzxx1212 for your tip.)

In the early morning of the next day, the gate of Songzhou city was opened wide. Five thousand infantrymen in plate armor, holding a shield in their left hand and a horizontal knife in their right hand, lined up in a neat phalanx and walked towards the ditch with neat steps. It was 1,500 archers with compound bows on their backs. They also followed the infantry in a neat line. It was the first time for the soldiers to go to the battlefield, and they were inevitably a little nervous, but they felt a little more at ease when they thought of the tight armor protection on their bodies.

The change of the Songzhou garrison was soon known by the Tuyuhun people. Murong Fuyun summoned the generals under his command to discuss countermeasures. He first said: "Everyone, the Songzhou garrison has not fought behind closed doors for many days, and today they suddenly put up a battle formation. It makes people wonder whether we should send troops or not."

??After listening to the scouts, Murong Shun continued, "Father Khan, my son has been in Chang'an for many years, and the Tang people are cunning. Now they only use thousands of infantry to form a battle formation. There must be fraud, so we must guard against it."

?? King Tianzhu pondered for a while, "Could it be that they ambushed soldiers in the forests on both sides, and deliberately used these soldiers as bait."

?? "Well, what you said makes sense. Now you immediately send scouts to search the left and right mountains." Murong Fuyun nodded, "And immediately call the army to assemble. We have enough siege equipment. If there is no ambush, we will attack the city today."

?? King Tianzhu answered yes, and walked out of the big tent with several generals.

?? After the infantry phalanx walked out, Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda led the cavalry to follow closely behind the infantry. When they reached the predetermined location, the soldiers all stopped.

??Li Yin and Zhu Youzhi stood on the city wall. Observing the movements of the Tuyuhun camp with binoculars, "Although the Tuyuhun cavalry has assembled, they don't appear to be attacking." Li Yin said after observing for a while.

?? "They must have thought they were cheating and did not dare to fight easily. Now they must be exploring the surrounding forests. Because only there may be an ambush." ??Zhu Youzhi said confidently.

??Li Yin nodded and put down the binoculars, "Let Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda lead the cavalry to call for a fight, and lure them here by feigning defeat."

??Zhu Youzhi responded yes, and called a messenger to convey Li Yin's order to Qin Huaiyu, and after a while. A cavalryman galloped out of the city gate.

After receiving Li Yin's order, Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda looked at each other, and led the cavalry from the three-meter-wide passage across the trench to the Tuyuhun camp. Where there is no rice to dig, these places are guarded by infantry. The purpose was to concentrate their forces to wipe out the cavalry, and now Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda were leading the cavalry to pass over here.

The three-mile road is short for the cavalry, and the Tuyuhun cavalry has assembled outside the camp, and they are divided into three groups. The central army is led by Murong Fuyun, the left army is led by Tianzhu King, and the right army is led by Murong Shun. lead. More than 30,000 cavalrymen set up a battle formation to stare at the 3,000 cavalrymen rushing towards Songzhou City.

"No wonder the Songzhou defenders dared to go out to fight. It turns out they have new armor." Murong Fuyun mocked. Not far away were the Songzhou cavalry. Putting on tight silver and white armor, like steel monsters, even though Murong Fuyun said this, he felt a little guilty. They had never seen such a cavalry before, so they couldn't help but feel a drum in their hearts. But when he thought that he was thirty thousand cavalrymen, he became proud again.

?? "Khan, we have searched the mountains and forests with a radius of five miles, but we haven't found a single soldier." A scout rushed over and said.

??Tianzhu King said: "There is no ambush? Are these Tang people crazy? Just this little soldiers dare to fight the 60,000 Tuyuhun army."

??Zhu Youzhi estimated that there were only 40,000 people in Tuyuhun, but he forgot that nomads were people who dismounted from their horses. Mounting horses is a warrior, and sometimes both men and women go to the battlefield, so although the number of 80,000 Tuyuhun army is boasted, there are still 60,000.

"Since there is no ambush, what are you afraid of? Now you lead the left army to attack from the left to eliminate the Tang people's infantry. I will command the Chinese army to fight this cavalry." Murong Fuyun turned his head and said to Murong Shun, "You go from the right Attack the Tang's infantry from the side, after the two of you defeat the infantry, surround the cavalry in a roundabout way, leaving none of them behind."

?? "Yes!" Murong Shun and King Tianzhu took orders and left.

At this time, Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda's cavalry were less than a hundred meters away from Tuyuhun's army. They lined up neatly and looked at the densely packed Tuyuhun cavalry. , scared."

??Qin Huaiyu said, "I'm not afraid, it's just that I'm a little nervous going to the battlefield for the first time."

"Hahaha..." Niu Jinda laughed loudly, "I met Yi Guogong when we were in Wagang Village, and later joined your majesty with your father. We fought more than two hundred times, and every time we met the enemy, the enemy showed off a lot. A military general with strong soldiers and horses, then His Majesty will let your father go to the battle and kill the general, and take the enemy's head out of an army of ten thousand, what a brave man."

??Niu Jinda's words made Qin Huaiyu's blood boil for a while, and his right hand holding the fine steel spear trembled slightly, "I will not lose to my father."

?? "Then dare I take a risk with Lao Niu today." Niu Jinda said looking forward.

??Qin Huaiyu was stunned for a moment, and said: "Does General Niu want to use three thousand cavalry to attack Tuyuhun's army?"

?? "Exactly!" Niu Jinda said with a smile.

??Qin Huaiyu revealed a fierce look in his eyes, and said, "Why don't you dare!"

?? "Okay, there is a kind!" Niu Jinda patted Qin Huaiyu on the shoulder.

?? After setting up the formation, Murong Fuyun nodded to the orderly next to him, and the soldier picked up the horn and said, "Woo...", the loud voice immediately spread throughout the Tuyuhun camp.

?? "Kill!" Murong Fuyun yelled, and the Tuyuhun cavalry rushed out like arrows from the string, raising their sabers, and the Tuyuhun cavalry rushed towards the Songzhou defenders screaming.

??Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda looked at each other, "Soldiers! Kill!"

?? "Kill!" Although the number of three thousand cavalry was not many, they were all elites trained by Niu Jinda himself. The roar was like thunder, and even Li Yin on the city wall heard it.

Li Yin had been observing the situation on the battlefield, and seeing the cavalry in a battle formation, his heart suddenly turned cold. Then he remembered that Niu Jinda was a man in history who dared to attack the Tubo army of 200,000 with 10,000. It's a desperate posture to fight.

??In Li Yin's field of vision, Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda rushed out first, and the cavalry behind them also rushed out. Li Yin scolded: "Qin Huaiyu, you bastard, why don't you follow suit!"

?? Seeing Li Yin so angry, Zhu Youzhi asked, "What happened, Your Highness?"

?? "Look for yourself!" Li Yin gave Zhu Youzhi the binoculars.

?? "General Niu and Qin Huaiyu led the cavalry to fight Tuyuhun head-on!" Zhu Youzhi was also surprised.

??Li Yan couldn't get angry, "When I was in Chang'an, I heard that Niu Jinda was dispatched to Mianzhou because of his disobedience during the Northern Expedition to the Huns. Now I finally understand that this is true."

Niu Jinda has made outstanding military achievements in history, but there are very few records about him. Li Yin still wondered what happened. It turns out that this guy is the version of Li Yunlong in the Tang Dynasty. It is commonplace to resist orders on the battlefield, but he can fight. Li Yin can be regarded as a lesson this time up.

?? "Your Highness don't need to be too angry, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, maybe General Niu has his own ideas." Zhu Youzhi said.

When the two were talking, Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda had already led the cavalry to collide with the Tuyuhun cavalry. Although the Songzhou cavalry was wearing high-strength, light-weight hard aluminum alloy armor, the horses that sat down were wearing The real steel armor is heavy, and Tuyuhun is the same light cavalry.

??So in Li Yin's eyes, three thousand cavalry rammed into Tuyuhun's central army in a conical formation, cutting through the brocade like a sharp knife.

The moment the soldiers in the front row of the Tuyuhun cavalry came into contact with this torrent of steel, only the bones shattered and the screams of the horses were heard in their ears. Then they suddenly lost their center of gravity, and the moment they landed, their heads were crushed by the horses. .

Qin Huaiyu brandished a silver gun like a **** of killing. When the silver gun swept across, a Tuyuhun soldier fell off his horse. Niu Jinda's eyes were scarlet. The horizontal knife in his hand was stained red with blood. Soldier.

??Tuyuhun soldiers fought hard based on their numbers, but when their swords slashed on the hard plate armor, they couldn't hurt a soldier at all except for the crisp metal clashing sound.

Tang Jun brandished a sharp horizontal knife and easily pierced the armor of the Tuyuhun soldiers. They had no fear in the face of three or four Tuyuhun soldiers besieging them, because they suddenly realized that these Tuyuhun soldiers could not hurt them at all, and their attacks became bolder and fiercer. stand up.

Murong Fuyun stood on the watchtower of the camp, at first he still seemed to be winning, but he felt something was wrong more and more, not only did the silver torrent not decrease, but it was getting closer to him, the only difference was that the silver torrent It gradually turned into the color of blood.

Qin Huaiyu and Niu Jinda led the cavalry to fight more and more bravely, leaving behind the corpses of Tuyuhun soldiers all the way. After Qin Huaiyu shot a Tuyuhun soldier from his horse, the Tuyuhun army collapsed and retreated one after another. In the eyes of those Tuyuhun soldiers Exuding extreme fear, they felt that they were not fighting flesh and blood at all, but a group of steel giant "shou jiao", and their hearts were torn apart.

??Tuyuhun's central army collapsed, but Niu Jinda did not choose to pursue it, because Tuyuhun's camp was very strong, and there were still a large number of infantry guards inside.

He led the cavalry to line up again and split into two groups with Qin Huaiyu's soldiers, and changed the direction of attack to Tuyuhun's left army and right army. Outflanked.
