Chapter 592 Well, perfect!

It doesn’t matter how many people you have, what arrangements you have, or what calculations you have.

For me, leaving 50,000 people is enough.

Even if you bring in some more people from other places, 50,000 people will still be enough.

These 50,000 people can hold back your reinforcements and buy a certain amount of time for the main force in front to withdraw part of it.

With the troops currently in Han Xin's hands, even a war between the north and the south would be stress-free.

There are 250,000 troops here. Even if 150,000 of them are Yuezhi people, the Yuezhi people who have been strengthened by the Han army still have barely enough combat effectiveness.

At Han Xin's order, 200,000 Han troops began to slowly move towards the Xiongnu battle formation.

Two hundred thousand people were enough to surround us from all directions at the same time.

And because the Huns adopted a defensive vehicle formation, the Han army's strategy naturally needed to be changed.

Instead of the traditional cavalry charge, using speed to break through the opponent's defense, it was changed to moving forward slowly and advancing step by step.

Because the characteristic of the car formation is to surround a circle of large cars in front of the formation, put some rocks and soil on top, and support the bottom to prevent you from easily overturning and destroying it.

In this state, the speed of the cavalry is useless and can even be counterproductive.

Do you think ancient cars were very low?

The height of the center of a cart's wheel is slightly below the middle of the horse's belly.

If converted, it is about one and a half meters tall.

The technology these days is not that advanced, so the wheel is also a huge wheel without bearings. Positions are reserved directly on both sides of the trolley and the wheels are installed.

So the wheel position is about two meters high, and the counterweights are placed in other places. On average, the height of a car is about 1.7 meters.

This height is simply insurmountable for an ordinary war horse. Even a trained war horse would have difficulty. After all, the carriage is still nearly two meters wide, and the war horse's ability to stay in the air after jumping cannot allow it to cross such a wide obstacle.

Therefore, those who encountered a car formation and used war horses to rush against it were basically out of their minds.

Therefore, in the past, when nomads encountered this formation, the only way they could do it was to circle around and fire bows and arrows at the same time, looking for a breakthrough.

But then again, these days, no matter what the military type is, no matter what the occasion, fighting is all about coordination.

When encountering an orthodox army, it is obviously difficult to rely on this method to find a breakthrough.

But now the Huns are using their chariot formation on the opposite side, so the situation is different.

The Huns still use soft bows, and the problem of stirrups has not been solved, so they cannot use all their strength to shoot arrows on their horses, and must conserve a certain amount of strength to control the balance to prevent falling.

Although soft bows, or riding bows, are convenient for riding and shooting on war horses, they also have weaknesses, which is at the expense of weakening their range and attack power.

As a compensation, the speed of the war horse itself is used to make up for the problem of insufficient attack power caused by insufficient skill.

Therefore, it is difficult to deal with the Huns who are mounted, but it cannot be easier to deal with the Huns who are dismounted.

The Han cavalry did not circle around the Huns' chariot formation, wasting their horsepower.

They almost go hand in hand, and when they reach the shooting range, they start shooting in place.

On the other side, the Huns were completely confused...

"Aluka, it seems that the Han people are not moral!"

"Uh-huh..." Aluka glanced dissatisfied.

You even say that the Han people are unethical. The most unethical people are you, the Huns.

If I were really a big Chanyu, I would have killed you shameless cowards long ago...

"What did you do earlier? Asking you to do some work is like killing you. Do it one by one and see for yourself what it looks like? If you had followed my instructions before, now the Han people's arrows would not be able to shoot in.

, Now go and see if the Han arrows came in from where you were lazy?" Aluka yelled angrily.

"Uh... Aluka, what's the use of talking about this now? Even if you do it now, it's already too late..."

The most physical work for the Huns was to build their own tents, and the less important task was to harvest forage.

If you asked them to dig some soil, I'd be really sorry because they didn't use this skill point at all.

According to Aluka, all the soil used was taken from within two meters in front of the vehicle array.

The vehicle array is also intended to be a permanent fortification.

Once the car is put there, fill the bottom with soil. You don't need to compact it, but it must be filled, and a thick layer of soil must be placed on top.

With such defensive capabilities, even a strong man cannot push it away.

In terms of defense, if this strategy is implemented, both the cavalry and infantry of the Han army will be helpless.

However, after all calculations, Aluka never expected that they would be lazy...

And it's not just laziness.

But it doesn't matter, being lazy just suits my own needs, so that the Han army won't have to exert too much effort when attacking.

Because this group of people did not obey his command, the Han army took advantage of the loophole and breached the defense. This had nothing to do with him, so it did not affect his status in the hearts of the Huns.

Ever since, it’s been a pleasure...

"Leave some people to hide behind the car, and others to retreat beyond the attack range of the Han people. Let them get closer. Then the warriors hiding behind the car suddenly attack, and those who retreat suddenly step forward and fire arrows." Aru.

Ka thought for a while and made arrangements.

"What should we do about those warriors who are attacking us by shooting arrows at this time? How should we tell them?"

"Don't tell me. It's already this time and it's not chaotic enough. If you can't bear it, why don't you go?" Aluka glared at the other party fiercely.

"Well... I think some warriors are still willing to pay..."

Seeing the other party's leaving figure, Aluka cursed in a low voice in a very speechless voice: "Coward..."

As a person who is motivated to make the greatest contribution to the empire, Aluka is not burdened at all even though he is doing things that only traitors would do.

After all, I still have tens of thousands of Xiongnu young men in my hands, which can be regarded as a fighting force. If these people don't think of a way to give them away, what are they still doing?

Let the Han people massacre directly next?

This shows that the Han people are too inhumane, and it is difficult to explain what happened next.

Therefore, Aluka decided to create an atmosphere of a fight to the death, first arouse the people's fighting spirit, and then let them deliver them one by one. After they finished delivering, I led the old, young, women and children to surrender.

Advertising, [app] is really good and worth installing. After all, you can cache reading and read aloud offline!

At this time, the Xiongnu's fighting power was gone.

Even if Maodun Shanyu and Luo Tanjichou came back with their people, it would be of no avail. Only more than 50,000 hungry and thirsty men would be left. Men and men cannot produce offspring...
