Chapter 88 The Battle of the World (1)(2/2)

But how meaningful can this kind of scolding be? Apart from venting anger, it can't do anything.

Looking at the Huns resting in the distance, Zhou Yangda felt sorry for him. If he had enough cavalry in his hands, he could take this opportunity to fight back, so that the Huns would not even have a chance to breathe.

Unfortunately, Zhou Yang only had 10,000 cavalry in his hands, which was too few, and it was not time to use them. He could only watch the Huns rest. This was not a war, it was purely sightseeing, and the Huns were too comfortable.

The Han Dynasty was founded for decades, but there were too few war horses. It was impossible to build a cavalry that could conquer and be very large in size, which was the unfavorable situation of suppressing the Huns in such a way.

It was not until Emperor Wu of Han reformed military and political affairs, built elite cavalry, reversed the situation in one fell swoop, destroyed the Huns, and created a thousand-year glory in Chinese history!

"Master General, let's rush up now and give the Huns a cruel thing!" Gongsun He clenched his right hand into a fist, staring at the Huns angrily, with flames spraying in his eyes.

Rest in front of the Han army, isn’t that bullying people? You don’t have horses or elite cavalry!

Gongsun Jian, Qin Wuhui and the others all thought this way, and they wanted to lead the cavalry to rush over and kill for a while.

Cheng Bushi shook his head and said, "The Huns are so virtuous that they bullied the Han Dynasty without cavalry."

He has seen too many such things and has long since been surprised.

"Today's battle is to see the combat power of the Huns, and there is no need to use cavalry." Zhou Yang had no intention of using cavalry.

Just as the Huns were resting, the Han army in the chariot formation was also resting, drinking water, and gnawing dried meat. It was better not to rest at this time. The next time the fight started, God knew when to rest, and he had to hurry up and recover.

Half an hour later, the Huns turned over and reorganized their formation, lined up in neat battle formations, full of murderous intent.

“Utra!”

Hou Chan'er waved the scimitar in his hand, roared, and led the Huns to rush over again.

Like the first round of attacks, the bows and arrows were shot away from each other, and each suffered damage. When they rushed closer, the Huns waved their swords and killed them. The Han army still relied on the chariot formation to face the enemy, and cooperated with the long halberd, bows and arrows, and Han swords to block them.

This time, the Huns' offensive was quite fierce, and they fought for a longer time, close to an hour.

At noon, the Huns were tired and exhausted, their formations were scattered, and their offensive was not fierce enough. Hou Chaner had to order to withdraw from the battle and lead the Huns to retreat outside the range.

The Huns dismounted and lay on the ground to breathe. They gathered together in groups of three or five, eating jerky meat and drinking horse breasts, and scolding the Han army for being timid. After eating and drinking, the Huns even lay on the ground and slept with their heads in their arms.

Looking at the sleeping Huns, Cheng Bushi was a little angry and cursed: "The Huns bullied the Han Dynasty without cavalry! Damn! Hateful! Annoying! The general, dispatched Jianzhang Army to kill them all!"

Zhou Yang shook his head and smiled, "No need! Let them fight. Actually, we should be happy!"

"Happy?" Cheng Buzhi rolled his eyes in confusion: "Master General, the Huns bullied us without cavalry, are they still happy?"

"The Huns bullied us without cavalry, of course we can't be happy." Zhou Yang explained with a smile: "What we should be happy is that the Huns have no way to use our chariot array."

"Haha!" Cheng Bushi was happy again: "The Huns fought with the Han Dynasty for decades, but they had no choice but to use the car formation."

The Huns did not have advanced civilization and developed technology. When they encountered chariots, they could only attack. However, chariots were very effective against cavalry. The Huns had been attacking for decades and had not broken through the chariot formation several times.

If the Huns had advanced civilizations and developed technologies like the Han Dynasty, they would have created powerful tools to deal with war chariots, and the consequences would be really unimaginable.

The Huns had no powerful weapon to deal with chariots, and could only rely on bows, arrows and scimitars, which was indeed something that deserved the joy and happiness of the Han army.

Zhou Yang nodded slightly: "In fact, there may not be no way to deal with the chariot formation. If the Huns attacked with fire, the chariot would be destroyed without attacking."

Cheng Buzhi shook his hand and disagreed: "Master, the chariot will not be ignited, even using rockets is useless. If we are afraid of fire, will we still dare to use it?"

When designing a tank, it takes into account the fire attack problem and has considerable fire resistance. This is true.

However, Zhou Yang had another wonderful method: "Although the chariot is not afraid of fire, it is useless to use rockets. However, after all, it is made of wood and will ignite as long as it is burned for a long time. There are not many other Huns, but there is only a lot of grease. If the grease is ignited, rushed to the front of the formation, and smashed it on the chariot, what would it be?"

"This..." Cheng Buzhi's mouth widened and could not speak for a long time.

Speaking of oil, the Huns are mostly. When cattle and sheep are slaughtered, can there be no oil? Oil is easy to catch fire. Once it is stuck on the chariot, it will ignite the chariot. This is indeed a wonderful way to break through the chariot array.

"Also, if the Huns brought countless grease into the formation, even if they did not burn the chariots, would our people still have a foothold?" Zhou Yang asked again.

For the Huns, there is no problem with how much oil is needed. Even if the entire battlefield is thick, it is fine. Even if the chariot is not easy to catch fire, if it does not burn the chariot and uses the chariots to burn people, would it be different to break the Han army's chariot formation?

Once the grease catches fire, it is difficult to extinguish it. If the array is full of fire, where can you hide? The Huns take the opportunity to attack, so how can the car array not be broken?

The chariot formation was a powerful weapon for the Han army to protect themselves. If even this was broken, the Han army would completely lose its ability to protect themselves. Once the Huns' cavalry rushed, they would only be able to massacre.
