"I will lead 20,000 soldiers and charge out from the depths of the Yin Mountains. We must break through the 20,000 Xiongnu elites as soon as possible.”
"First, we will use three waves of arrows to suppress the enemy. Our cavalry will use the cover to charge forward, and the spearmen in the rear will follow up and kill them.”
Putting away his previous thoughts, Meng Wu's expression suddenly changed. With a relatively clear mind, he elaborated a battle plan specifically for dealing with the Xiongnu cavalry.
"This newly-arrived General Meng Wu has shown himself in today's battle.”
To be honest, Li Xin and the other generals weren't convinced by the newly appointed Meng Wu.
When he heard the words of the Xiongnu cavalrymen's weak points being pinpointed and their every move being fatal, the little bit of unwillingness that existed naturally dissipated.
"General Meng, what about the remaining ten thousand soldiers?”
If one did not have the ability, they would not have been able to come up with such a brilliant countermeasure. One of the generals saluted and asked without contempt.
"It will be led by General Li Xin. When the Xiongnu cavalrymen regain their senses and want to counterattack, they will charge out and give them the final blow.”
It had to be said that Meng Wu was indeed very powerful when he taught a general talent like Meng Tian. His timing on the battlefield was very accurate.
"First, the first wave of sudden attacks, and then the second wave of sudden attacks. No matter how elite the Xiongnu cavalry is, they will only end up defeated.”
The palace guards were created by the current king, and they were a group of generals with extremely rich combat experience. They could still distinguish the level of command and whether it was high or low.
"No wonder the king appointed him as the Left General. So that's why. He does have some real ability.”
The doubts that had appeared before were now all solved. Li Xin's eyes flashed with a trace of understanding. King was far-sighted and knew how to use people.
"Li Xin, listen up. You will lead 10,000 soldiers and kill the Xiongnu people the moment they come back to their senses.”
As he spoke, Meng Wu looked at Li Xin who was standing on the right and gave another order.
"Here, leave the second wave to me.”
After regaining his senses, Li Xin took a few steps forward and accepted the military order.
"In order to prevent the Xiongnu elites from coming back to help, our army must annihilate the Xiongnu cavalry guarding the Yin Mountains in the shortest time possible and complete the blockade on the west side of the encirclement.”
Meng Wu stood up and said with a serious expression.
"Understood!"
Hearing this, Li Xin and the other generals said in unison," Yes!"
"The Qin army would never expect that we would leave a portion of cavalry behind to occupy this place.”
The twenty thousand Xiongnu elites were busy setting up their tents. Many tribal leaders laughed out loud with an indescribable sense of pride.
"Of course. As long as we defend the retreat route of the Yin Mountains, the Qin army won't be able to do anything to us.”
Chris laughed out loud when he heard this. By the time Qin Jun realized it, it was already too late.
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
Suddenly, an extremely sharp air-piercing sound exploded, completely breaking the original silence of the Yin Mountains.
"Not good, the Qin army has discovered our movements. Quick, quickly send out scouts to inform Chanyu and tell him to return to the Yin Mountains immediately.”
Anyone with the strength of Mobei in the plains was familiar with this kind of voice. Chris, whose expression changed drastically, shouted.
The Qin army could wait at the Yin Mountains in advance, which meant that there would be a large number of Qin troops in other places.
"Puchi!"
However, no matter how fast Chris reacted, the arrows had already pierced through the bodies of the Xiongnu cavalrymen, bringing with them hot blood.
It was unknown if it was at close range or if it was launched from a high altitude, but it easily passed through the fragile back and only stopped when it entered the body of the second rider.
"Mount up and fight, mount up and fight."
The key to the strength of the cavalry was the impact force. Chris, who didn't have time to think too much, only had one thought in his heart, and that was to launch a counterattack against the Qin army.
Otherwise, if the battle dragged on, they would be surrounded by the Qin army and be defeated at Yin Mountain, let alone sending scouts to inform the Chief.
"Da…da…da…"
The Xiongnu cavalry were elites. They did not panic because of the ambush. Instead, they quickly mounted their horses and prepared to counterattack the Qin army.
However, they were shocked to find that a large group of cavalrymen in black armor with red edges were already less than thirty meters away from them.
"Kill them!"
The distance of thirty meters was instantly crossed. The imperial cavalrymen raised the spears in their hands and used the invincible charge to pick up the Xiongnu cavalrymen.
The huge impact of the warhorse sent him flying into the air, leaving him struggling.
"Ah!"
The cavalryman did not hit the ground as he had expected. He took out a long sword and cut off the Xiongnu cavalryman's head while he was still conscious.
As a member of Great Qin's army, the system of military merits was very popular, as a person's head represented status and honor.
The battle with the Qin army was not a one-day or two-day battle. The elite Xiongnu cavalry would not be frightened by the sound of the wind, but the next scene made them feel a deep chill.
After the Qin soldiers were beheaded, their warhorses did not stop. Instead, they continued to pick up speed, reaching out to grab their comrades.
"Hyah, hyah…"
Then, with the terrifying strength of the warhorses, the cavalrymen of the imperial forest held spears in one hand and dragged a Xiongnu man with each hand.
Looking from afar, the road was filled with blood stains. Looking at it, it made one shudder.
"Ah, kill me, kill me!"
Hearing their companion's miserable screams, the rest of the Xiongnu cavalrymen could not help but tremble, as if they were the ones suffering.
"Stomp, stomp!"
After the cavalry of the imperial forest charged forward, the soldiers who were carrying spears happened to be within the effective attack range.
"Go to hell, Qin people."
A portion of the Xiongnu cavalrymen who reacted in time saw the Qin infantry appear and quickly approached with their machetes.
"Ha!"
With a loud shout on the spot, the spearmen swung out almost at the same time. They were divided into three heights with great tacit understanding. It could be said that the hierarchy was clear.
When the Xiongnu cavalrymen approached, the spears that were held the highest and lowest suddenly swung at the Xiongnu people and warhorses.
"Kacha, kacha…"
The spear, which was neither too high nor too low, pushed the fallen warhorse forward to prevent its line of sight from being obstructed.
Other than that, he also forcefully ripped the heads of the Xiongnu and killed the fish that escaped the net.
"This, this!"
His comrades who were not completely dead had their heads cut off. No, it should be said that their heads were forcefully cut off by the spears. They could not even get close to the Qin infantry.
The Xiongnu cavalrymen who were about to charge forward hesitated.
Compared to the Qin army he had encountered before, the Qin army before him was a little different. It seemed to be several times more ferocious.
"The palace guards are indeed worthy of being the king's direct line of command army that has been fighting for many years. They broke through the Xiongnu elites in an incense stick's time!”
"From the initial display of combat strength, just like what Li Xin said, it is indeed quite strong!”
If it was said that he was skeptical before, Meng Wu now completely believed it. He sighed at how the king had formed it. This was only the initial combat strength of the palace guards.
