Tens of thousands of cavalry surrounded 5,000 Han infantry on the grassland, but they themselves suffered more than 10,000 casualties.

In the end, the Han army had to rely on geographical advantages to stop the Han army from advancing, and this was enough to completely defeat the Han army. This shows that the Huns cavalry did not have the ability to charge head-on at that time.

In the Later Han Dynasty, the "Tuqi" under Emperor Guangwu played a huge role in reviving the Han Dynasty.

As the name suggests, the cavalry are sharp cavalry used to clash with enemies.

If it hadn't been for the intrusion of a certain country rogue, the cavalry would have reached its peak a hundred years later - the armor and cavalry equipment.

The Xuanjia Army under Li Shimin is equipped with armor and riding equipment.

But the armor and riding gear are not without their weaknesses.

Its biggest weakness is that it is expensive, very expensive, extremely expensive.

Once used, if it cannot be decisive on the battlefield, its cost performance will become extremely low, and it can even be said to be a blood loss.

Therefore, both the Tang and Yuan Dynasties had a large number of cavalry, but the light and heavy cavalry were used in conjunction, and it was not said which one was focused on.

Even during the Great Sending between the two dynasties, due to being beaten out of experience, they were able to develop tactics to restrain the cavalry.

As a result, the heavy cavalry such as the Guaizima in the north were once again reduced to flanking battlefield units.

Of course, due to the illegal crossing of a certain country turtle, a complete set of armor and cavalry equipment was developed in advance, allowing the heavy cavalry to enter its peak era ahead of schedule.

In this era, the productivity of both Wei and Wu was at least one generation lower than that of Ji Han.

As for the tribes on the grassland, let alone that.

Tuoba Liwei fought Dou Bin in the front, and at the same time arranged a cavalry group to go around the flanks, looking for flaws, waiting for an opportunity to launch an attack, disrupting the opponent's flanks and rear.

There is nothing wrong with this - although in the past, he would send one to the north and one to the south, but now, half of the elite cavalry in the clan are still wandering around.

But he was wrong. He misjudged his opponent and did not understand his opponent at the same time.

"General, Xianbei Hu has a cavalry army coming around from the north."

Zhao Sanqian, who raised his telescope, took the initiative to assume the responsibility of the lookout and reported the situation to General Zhendong.

Taking the initiative to rush to the enemy's preset battlefield, there is no way to choose the commanding heights in advance, and you can only have people temporarily set up a command post.

General Zhendong stood on the command platform with his hands behind his back, seeming to be admiring the picturesque scenery of the grassland, and not paying too much attention to Zhao Guang's latest discovery of the enemy.

Of course, in his eyes, there was nothing worthy of paying too much attention to his opponent in this battle.

There was no other way. The opponent took the initiative to weaken half of his strength in advance, which undoubtedly allowed General Zhendong to crush him easily.

He just said yes to show that he heard it.

Then he raised his chin again and asked:

"Where's the front?"

"Dou Bin has broken through Xianbei Hu's first line of defense and is continuing to advance,"

After a pause, Zhao Guang lowered his voice a little and said, "General, from General Yimo's point of view, the situation without Lu Huibu seems to be a bit not good."

Although he couldn't see the specific situation clearly, Zhao Guang could see from the telescope that the formation without Lu Hui's troops had become a bit messy.

And this mess has continued and has not been restored.

This is not normal for a team that just won a small round.

Zhao Guang is not good at anything else, but he still has some experience in leading troops.

At this glance, he could guess something:

The troops without Lu Hui were probably exhausted and had no energy left.

At this time, Dou Bin actually dared to continue leading the troops forward, which was probably in danger.

It can be seen from the telescope that although Tuoba Xianbei lost a line of defense, the formation at the rear is still neat and the flags are not disordered.

Comparing the two sides, Tuoba Xianbei is indeed much better than Wu Luhui.

Under such circumstances, if Tuoba Liwei saw that Wu Luhui's troops were at the end of his might and organized a counterattack, Dou Bin might not be able to stop him.

"Oh?" General Zhendong's eyes finally moved from the distant scenery back to the front of the formation, and an indifferent arc appeared at the corner of his mouth:

"Dou Bin didn't send anyone to ask for help, so don't worry about him."

"What if there is no Lu Hui tribe's defeated troops to counterattack?"

"Inform Tufa Kheli and others so that they can be prepared at any time."

After obeying the instructions, Zhao Guang smacked his lips with some pity, "With this kind of attack, too many barbarians will die."

That’s a lot of money for one laborer!

"not enough."

"Um?"

Zhao Guang turned around in surprise and looked at General Zhendong.

General Zhendong's eyes were solemn and his face was cold, "Not enough people have died."

"Tuoba Xianbei is a big tribe. If we can destroy them as planned this time, we will have at least 200,000 to 300,000 laborers."

"Coupled with the fact that there are no deer to return to the tribe, I am afraid that we will not be able to harvest nearly half a million barbarians this time."

Even though Zhao Guang had been with leader Feng Laoli for many years, he still couldn't help but swallowed when he heard this number.

Too much……

General Zhendong exhaled, "But this is deep in the grassland. Even if we include the Hu Qi Yi Cong, we have less than 50,000 people."

Shaking his head, "How can 50,000 people watch 500,000 people on the grassland?"

Even if all the hemp ropes in the army were used, so many people would not be able to be tied up.

Because this time we went out to the fortress, the staff department's deduction was that it was already the limit to be able to recruit 200,000 to 300,000 people.

Not to mention countless horses, cattle and sheep.

"Although the Luhui tribe is currently fighting fiercely with Tuoba Xianbei, they are in-laws after all. If something unexpected happens after the war, then our previous efforts may be wasted this time."

Hu people cannot be trusted.

"So I can only rest assured if we let them have a blood feud."

How can it turn into a blood feud?

Of course, more people on both sides will die.

Compared with making money from selling heads, General Zhendong paid more attention to the arrangements after this battle.
