    "Attack!"

    With Jinachuan¡¯s consent, Borg sneered and waved his hand, and the Hun cavalry, which had been ready to go, immediately rushed forward.

    "Compared to those slaves, the Hun cavalry's offensive was obviously much more violent.

    And this time, they have obviously learned well. Each of them is equipped with a thick shield, and even the war horses are covered with two layers of rawhide.

    "Compared with the shields used by slaves, the quality of their shields is indeed much better.

    However, it was actually just two layers of water-soaked rawhide nailed onto an ordinary wooden shield.

    Although this thing is crude, it has to be said that this thing is much better than the junk they used before.

    At the very least, under the two rounds of arrow rain from the Han army, these Huns cavalry did not suffer too many casualties!

    This did put a lot of psychological pressure on the soldiers of the Shenwu Army. After all, once the Huns got close, their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.

    "Hahahaha, it's blocked! It's indeed blocked!"

    Seeing that the Huns cavalry finally safely entered within thirty steps of the Han army's chariot formation, even Yi Zhixie was secretly happy.

    "Congratulations to the Great Chanyu!"

    The Shenwu Army¡¯s attack methods have always given the Huns a headache. This time, they finally found a solution.

    "So it's just two layers of rawhide, hahahaha, Shenwu Army? I want to see how good you are?"

    As long as it can block the power of crossbows, the lethality of the Shenwu Army can almost be ignored.

    After all, the Huns are all cavalry. In the previous series of battles, the Huns almost always suffered from this.

    This turn of events was really beyond Liu Deng¡¯s expectation. Unexpectedly, the benefits they got from the Western Regions this time were so great that they were beyond Liu Deng¡¯s imagination.

    "Prepare fire and thunder!"

    However, this did not trouble Liu Deng. Seeing that the Hun cavalry was approaching thirty steps from the chariot, Liu Deng waved his hand lightly.

    Behind Liu Deng, several messengers immediately waved the flags in their hands.

    "Prepare fire and thunder!"

    After seeing the order flag, Li Guang gave the order, and a group of soldiers immediately rushed out of the Shenwu Army, each with a strange belt tied around their waist.

    Each belt is stuffed with seven or eight large homemade grenades. Of course, this thing now has a famous name, Fire Thunder!

    Although the workmanship of this thing is still very rough, its appearance looks very close to the grenades of later generations.

    The soldiers who rushed out held a torch in one hand and a hand grenade with a blueprint in the other. After lighting the fuse, they threw their arms directly out of the car formation.

    With the speed of these Hun cavalry, the distance of thirty steps came in an instant. Almost in the blink of an eye, the Hun cavalry rushed directly into the explosion range of the grenade.

    Three thousand soldiers are equivalent to three thousand grenades, although each grenade only contains about two kilograms of black powder.

    But these black powders are all granular gunpowders that must reach military grade.

    "Boom¡ª¡ª"

    Those Hun cavalry who were unaware of what was going on had already flown into the sky with their horses and men before they understood what was going on.

    This huge sound directly caused a commotion among the Huns cavalry.

    The Hun cavalry at the center of the explosion were naturally gutted and torn.

    The injuries of those affected nearby were obviously much lighter, but the most powerful thing about this thing is not actually its lethality.

    On the contrary, it was the huge sound that made the Huns unable to cope with it, and the movements of their hands went out of shape inadvertently.

    Not only the Huns cavalry, but also the war horses were affected.

    These Huns cavalry were not prepared at all. Besides, even if they were prepared, there was nothing they could do with this thing.

    Almost in the blink of an eye, hundreds of horses in the Huns' queue were frightened and began to rush around randomly.

    When the cavalry charges, what they fear most is this kind of thing.

    The cavalry in front became a mess, and those behind had to slow down their charge.

    But as soon as the speed dropped, the entire battlefield turned into a mess.

    They were in chaos, but the Han army did not miss the opportunity to beat the drowned dog.

    ? ?The bows and arrows of the military army were still firing, and the arrows from the sky kept falling like rain.

    Borg, who was originally sitting on the horse with the old god around, almost fell off the horse when he saw this scene.

    "Is it that damn thing again?"

    Berg¡¯s eyes widened.

    "Damn it, find a way to get them back!"

    Jinachuan's reaction was obviously much faster. He originally planned to let the Huns cavalry approach the Han army's chariot formation and use the lasso to drag the chariots away from the chariot formation.

    But now that something like this has happened, those people who rush over now are simply risking their lives.

    "These cavalrymen are the last asset for them to live and work. If all these people are killed, they will probably just surrender and kill them."

    ¡°Woo¡ª¡ªWoo¡ª¡ªWoo¡ª¡ª¡±

    With a low sound of horns, the Huns cavalry who were in chaos began to retreat quickly.

    But in such a short period of time, at least thousands of Huns cavalry died under the crossbows of the Han army.

    The total number of cavalry in their hands was only 80,000. In such a short time, nearly one-tenth of them were killed or wounded.

    This result is really difficult for Borg to accept.

    "Want to leave? It's not that easy!"

    Seeing that the Huns were about to flee, Li Guang gave an order and all the Shenwu Army soldiers began to fire with all their strength.

    This shield was still very useful when they were charging, but now it is a bit cumbersome.

    In addition, their queue has fallen into chaos, and it is very difficult to rush out from the crowd at this time.

    Especially those war horses that were frightened and lost their masters, bumping around like headless flies.

    This gave the cavalry even more headaches.

    The rain of arrows from the Han army continued to fall. In this chaos, it was really an unachievable task to protect one's whole body with a thin shield.

    When the last Hun cavalry left the battlefield alive, the original team of 80,000 people suddenly became much thinner.

    Bog was so distressed that his whole body was trembling. Although he did not count the number of people, his heart was broken when he looked at the dense layer of corpses outside the Han army's vehicle formation.

    ¡°Damn Liu Deng!¡±

    Borg¡¯s fists rattled mine, but anger could not solve any problems (remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
