Chapter 499 The Huns' Advantage, Pound's Strategy to Destroy the Enemy

Chapter 500 The Huns' Advantage, Pound's Strategy to Destroy the Enemy

The words of the general of the Huns stunned all his subordinates.

Start listening.

They find it outrageous.

Doesn't this directly abolish the advantage of their Huns cavalry?

but,
Think carefully!What a great idea!
Yes!
They abolished the advantage of their Hun cavalry, but they also abolished the advantage of Xiliang cavalry!

They hid in the woods, hid in the woods!
It is impossible for the Xiliang cavalry to rush in on a large scale!They can rely on the advantage of being late to attack and entangle with the Xiliang cavalry.

"Boss, your idea is really great!"

"This battle can give full play to the greatest advantage of our Hun cavalry!"

"Although the Xiliang cavalry has cavalry and archers, only about half of them are equipped, but we all have bows and arrows!"

"Relying on the advantage of the terrain! I'll wait for work! Within two hours! I can rush out!" The subordinates of the Hun generals expressed their opinions one after another.

This made the general of the Huns overjoyed, and immediately perfected his plan.

"quick!"

"Let all the Hun cavalry who are still wandering outside the forest enter the forest!"

Immediately, more than 3000 Huns cavalry crowded outside the forest. After receiving the order from the general of the Huns, although they were puzzled, they obeyed the order and entered the forest.

"General Pound!"

"The latest information from the scouts, those scout cavalry wandering around the forest, have all entered the forest!"

Immediately, Pound frowned: "They all entered the forest? Are they really planning to break out?"

For a while, Pound couldn't figure out what the Huns cavalry were thinking.

Immediately dispatched cavalry: "Test a wave first."

On Pound's orders.

Five hundred cavalry rushed towards the woods where the Xiongnu cavalry were hiding.

Xiliang iron cavalry broke through the frozen ground and charged tentatively towards the Huns cavalry on the other side of the forest.

"No, these Hun cavalry have all dismounted!"

After charging close to the forest for a distance of about ten meters, the Xiliang cavalry general who took the lead in the charge suddenly felt bad: "Protect the vital points! Defend!"

"Ha ha!"

"Boys, shoot these Xiliang cavalry for me!"

Under the command of the General of the Huns, the dismounted Hun cavalry in the forest took out their bows and aimed at the Xiliang cavalry.

For a moment, the Xiliang cavalry, who were not on their guard, were shot and killed more than ten people.

"Take the corpses of your brothers!"

"retreat!"

The general in command of the [-] Xiliang cavalry immediately ordered his cavalry to retreat when he saw that the situation was unfavorable.

Then Pound even sent out his cavalry to test it out.

There were even more scouts attacking the woods. Within a quarter of an hour, Pang De had figured out the layout of the Huns' cavalry: "It's troublesome, they even abandoned their horses to shoot arrows."

"General Pound, what should we do!"

"If I wait to forcibly suppress the formation, I'm afraid the loss will be huge." Pound's men were a little worried.

For a while, Pound's subordinates expressed various ideas.

Some said that they directly used the advantages of the Xiliang iron cavalry to rush in, hindering and disturbing the Huns cavalry.

Some said that they rode horses against the Huns cavalry and so on.

The Huns cavalry can abandon their horses and shoot arrows.

Their Xiliang iron cavalry can also, although half of their Xiliang iron cavalry are not equipped with bows and arrows.

But among the rough horses following the troops, they could change to bows and arrows and take shields at any time.

Facing the tactics of his subordinates, Pang De immediately shook his head and said, "It's not that your ideas are worthless. We wait for Xiliang cavalry to be good at riding and shooting, and good at fighting in mountains. Of course it's not bad to dismount and fight with a stomach and a shield and bow."

"But if we proceed rashly like this, hitting low and hitting high, our losses will inevitably expand."

"In addition, the time spent is really not the best choice."

Pound's words made his subordinates nod in agreement.

Whether or not these Xiongnu cavalry can be taken down is not a problem at all in the eyes of these Xiliang generals.

Win is certain.

But how much time and how much it costs to win this victory is the key.

"But I've already made a decision in my mind." Pound stroked his beard with a slight smile on his face.

"Oh!" Pound's subordinate immediately asked very curiously: "General Pound, if you have any good ideas, tell me quickly!"

Pound smiled, and immediately stated his plan: "This general of the Huns has captured a good terrain, but there is no terrain for success, and terrain for failure. Can you see which direction the wind is blowing here?"

Pound's words made his subordinates stunned.

Some of the generals even threw away the ice and snow from the frozen soil, took a handful of snow and threw it into the strong wind.

Whoosh!

The cold wind howled, and in the cold and strong wind, the wind and snow blew towards the woods where the Huns cavalry was.

"General, do you want to attack with fire?" Suddenly, these generals guessed Pound's idea, the strategy of attack with fire!

"It's wonderful!" Seeing Pound nodding, his subordinates were very excited.

Pang De laughed and said, "Yes, no, you wait and get ready, dry firewood, fresh leaves, grass, bark, etc..."

Soon under the attack of Pound's subordinates, he quickly prepared the fire starter.

In addition to dry wood and velvet kindling, there are also things that are not easy to burn, such as emerald green leaves and grass with frost and snow that have just been cut from the tree.

"General Pound! I'm ready!"

"Okay! Let the troops who harassed the Huns' cavalry come back."

Pound looked towards the Xiongnu forest.

At this time, holding a full-body armored stomach and a shield in front, let the Xiliang cavalry behind them dismount and shoot arrows.

For a while, he fought back and forth with the Xiongnu who dismounted and shot arrows in the forest.

"Woooooo!"

The signal to retreat sounded.

The Xiliang cavalry who were still shooting at the Xiliang cavalry immediately left the attack range of the Xiliang cavalry under the cover of the Xiliang cavalry with shields in front of them.

Ride on the Xiliang horse and return to your own camp.

Seeing the Xiliang cavalry retreat, the Xiongnu who were hiding in the forest cheered immediately.

"Ha ha!"

"Finally back! The leader and I will hide in the woods. This choice is great!"

"You are so wise and mighty! Geshilu Bu!"

The general of the Huns, seeing the retreat of the Xiliang cavalry under Pound, had a look of surprise on his face.

Hearing such flattery from his subordinates greatly benefited the generals of the Huns: "Humph! These Xiliang cavalry are nothing more than that! We will find another opportunity to make a surprise attack when it gets dark!"

……

"General Pound, as you expected, we still can't shoot the Hun cavalry when we are facing each other." As the general of Xiliang who fought this time, he reported the results to Pound.

Several times in a row.

Their victories were minimal.

However, less than fifty Huns were killed, that's all. They also lost a dozen Huns, and many were injured.

"Not in a hurry."

"It's time for us to do it." Pound nodded and asked his subordinates to take the prepared firelight to the vicinity of the Huns and light it.

"What are they going to do?" The Xiongnu cavalry came after seeing Pound's thousands of Xiliang cavalry.

Just ready for battle.

But the Xiliang cavalry stopped 200 meters away from their forest, and even found a lot of dry firewood and branches to pile up on the frozen soil.
