Chapter 1314 The Disappearing Han Cavalry

 Chapter 1312: The disappeared Han cavalry

 Temujin, who had been watching the battle from the rear, was quite satisfied at first when he saw that his army finally broke through the Han army's firepower network and broke through two Han army's shield formations in succession.

But as he fought, Temujin felt something was wrong. Although both sides of the war were reducing their numbers, the Han army was reducing its numbers very slowly, while its own army was reducing its numbers at an abnormally fast rate.

 Under the circumstances, even if all the 90,000 cavalry dispatched were defeated, it would probably be impossible for them to break through the Longmen Formation by force.

Soon, Temujin found out the reason. He found that although the casualties of the cavalry fighting outside the formation were large, the greater proportion was the part that broke into the formation and was strangled by the Han army.

Temujin held a telescope and clearly saw the situation in the formation. Although he did not know the specific reason, he could see that the cavalry who entered the formation quickly lost their way and were scurrying around like headless flies. Collide.

The Han army in the Longmen Formation prepared countless means to kill the enemies who broke into the formation. They used almost everything, such as javelins, crossbows, spears, shields, swords... and so on.

How could the cavalry who dispersed into the formation resist so many methods? Under layers of exploitation, they were all easily strangled by the Han army.

Now Temujin is a little lucky. Fortunately, he never thought about breaking the formation in the first place. If he decided to break the Longmen Formation forcibly, he still doesn't know how much he would suffer.

 After finding the problem, the next step is to solve it naturally. The best way to eliminate this abnormal attrition speed is not to enter the Longmen Formation.

But even if Temujin expressly prohibits it, the combat zone between the two sides is only so large. Yuan Meng's entire force cannot be deployed at all. The cavalry at the back squeezes the cavalry at the front. After the personnel density in the combat zone reaches a certain bottom, it will definitely happen. A large number of people were squeezed into the main entrance.

Thinking of this, Temujin also realized that even if he ordered a ban on entering the formation, he could not prevent soldiers from being squeezed into the formation by his own people. The only way to completely eliminate it was to completely defeat the Longmen Formation.

With this thought, Temujin decisively ordered: "Of the 100,000 cavalrymen coming from the rear, 50,000 are ordered to go forward to support and strive to break the Longmen Formation as soon as possible."

                                                      )

Temujin had long guessed that 100,000 cavalry might not be able to forcibly break the Longmen Formation, so he mobilized 100,000 cavalry from the rear to assist in the battle before the battle began.

The 100,000 cavalrymen had arrived a long time ago, but Temujin never issued a military order, so there was no movement of these troops and horses. Now, as soon as Temujin issued the order, five of the 100,000 cavalrymen were immediately separated. Wan Tiejia forced his way towards the Longmen Formation from the main entrance.

Yuanmeng previously dispatched more than 90,000 cavalry, and nearly 10,000 cavalry were killed and injured, but none of them could get close to the main gate.

And now the fifty thousand cavalry who came to help reached the main gate without suffering any damage.

Now the two sides have become a melee. The javelins and crossbows in the Longmen Formation have their own functions. There is no firepower to intercept. Fifty thousand did not encounter any resistance, so naturally they can reach the Longmen Formation without any damage, but they still want to do it without any damage. Not so easy.

“Any formation has a carrying limit. The total number of people in the Longmen Formation is only more than 100,000, and they are all infantry..."

Temujin's eyes were full of deep color, and he whispered to himself: "I first sent out 90,000 cavalry to test, and then sent an additional 50,000 cavalry. I guess I have reached the limit of the Longmen Formation, right?"

 However, it backfired.

After the addition of 50,000 cavalry, Yuanmeng's casualty rate has been greatly reduced and the Han army's casualty rate has also been greatly increased. However, Yuanmeng's casualty rate is still several times higher than that of the Han army, and the Longmen formation shows no signs of collapse.

If this continues, Yuan Meng will definitely be defeated in the end.

At this thought, Temujin gritted his teeth and ordered: "Let the remaining 50,000 cavalry also participate in the battle." Temujin is really courageous. If it were anyone else, he would have given up, but what about him? If 100,000 cavalry cannot take the Longmen Formation, then 150,000 will be needed. If 150,000 cavalry cannot be taken, then he will send 200,000.

Of course, if 200,000 cavalry still cannot break through the Longmen Formation, Temujin may have to give up.

No matter how courageous Temujin is, he will not invest all 240,000 cavalry just to break a dragon gate formation. After all, God knows if Qin Hao has any other trump cards?

If Qin Hao still has one hand left, how can Temujin, who has exhausted all his cards, resist Qin Hao's next move?

 Temujin did not like the consequences of doing things, but when facing Qin Hao, he had to think twice. Only by keeping a land card in his hand could Temujin feel safe.

 After sending another 50,000 troops, Temujin's troops used to deal with the Longmen Formation had reached 200,000.

 At first, in order to draw out the fire ox, thousands of Yuan and Meng's cavalry were killed by the Han army's crossbow array;

 Later, in order to break through the firepower network, nearly ten thousand Yuan and Meng died under the javelins of the Han army;

 After the final melee began, nearly 10,000 more riders died in the strangulation in the Longmen Formation;

 In the melee with the Han army outside, Yuanmeng also suffered casualties of more than 15,000 cavalry.

Under various circumstances, Yuan and Meng had lost nearly 50,000 cavalry, and the Han army also suffered heavy casualties, with nearly 15,000 people losing combat effectiveness.

With the third batch of reinforcements from the Yuan and Mongolia, 50,000 cavalry joined the battle, and the casualty ratio between the Han and Yuan armies became closer again.

Although the Longmen Formation is still strong, there are already quite a few cracks. If things continue at this rate, it will only be a matter of time before the Longmen Formation collapses.

“Your Majesty, the Dragon Gate Formation is on the verge of collapse. Why not let the 40,000 cavalry from the rear join the battle? With the addition of these 40,000 cavalry, we will definitely be able to break the Dragon Gate Formation in one fell swoop.”

 A general suggested this to Temujin, but Temujin refused without thinking.

"no."

A trace of solemnity flashed in Temujin's eyes, and he said solemnly: "Qin Hao also has a large number of cavalry under his command, but only infantry is used to set up the Longmen Formation.

Now that the Longmen Formation is almost broken, this cavalry is still missing. Zhao Yun and Jia Fu have not appeared either. They must have been sent by Qin Hao to perform more important tasks.

 out out out of a sudden to attack the rear of our army if the cavalry, which was hidden by Qin Hao — after our army's strength is exhausted, will end everything, so a certain amount of force must remain. "

 Hearing what Temujin said, all the generals were shocked and immediately shouted: "Your Majesty is wise."

"But Your Majesty, where can Qin Hao hide this cavalry? There is no place to hide troops around Laolongtan." A general asked in confusion.

 “I don’t know either.”

Temujin shook his head and said solemnly: "But even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, our army will not fail to take precautions."

The third update is here. I’m so sleepy. Please vote for recommendations and monthly votes...
