Text Chapter 174 Guan Ning Iron Horse
One-third of Li Pa's 3,000 defenders come from the famous "Guanning Iron Cavalry", and the fighting style is fierce. Although it was flanked from the front and back, the battle formation was still not chaotic, forming a square battle formation, with swords and guns in front and arrows in the back, and the shouting of killing was deafening.
Attacking from the north to the south, Liu Gang's troops, with nearly 10,000 people, were helpless against the 3,000 soldiers surrounding the core.
In the course of this confrontation, Lipa has completed the cavalry conversion. The nearly 500 cavalry in the core have already mounted their war horses, holding bright swords in their hands, ready to break through.
A horn sounded, and suddenly a gap opened in the south, and the 500 iron horsemen suddenly rushed towards the south. But seeing the cold light shining and the momentum surging, the captain of the iron cavalry was Lu Tianlai, the commander of the Liupin Battalion, he waved his big sword, and the iron cavalry suddenly rushed towards the southern defense line.
500 iron cavalry, rushed into the southern formation, such as entering no man's land, a round of killing, Liu Gang's 4000 soldiers were wiped out a quarter, and the iron cavalry lost less than 100 people, and the battle loss ratio reached 1:10.
The 500 iron cavalry tore a hole in the southern front at once, and Li Pa led the infantry behind to retreat south while fighting.
There was an advantage in numbers, and Liu Gang looked at the one-sided battle situation, and his heart was anxious. Whispering to the deputy Wei behind him for a while, the deputy Wei Li Lin quickly organized the personnel.
After a while, Li Pa's army had quickly passed through Beiqingdian Town, and Liu Gang's army followed closely behind, chasing after him. That Liu Gang was also red-eyed at this time, 10,000 troops surrounded 3,000 people under the situation that the other party was defenseless, but the loss of the soldiers killed by the other party was broken, if he really let go of the enemy, he would have failed to go home.
Suddenly, a team of nearly 100 people rushed into Li Pa's army, led by Li Lin, who held a sword in one hand and a thunderbolt in the other, and threw it violently, in the blasting sound of fireworks, the smoke blocked the view, and Li Lin led the team to slash and tear the enemy camp open.
A situation was formed in which Liu Jun attacked Li Jun inside and outside, and the situation on the battlefield changed immediately at this moment.
"Quick, surround these 100 people to death", Li Pa held a big knife, waving and roaring.
Liu Gang, who was on the periphery, saw it clearly, and shot an arrow, hitting Li Pa's chest. That Li Pa shook a few times and almost fell.
At this time, because the center of gravity of Li Pa's army was inward, the troops on the periphery were slashed by Liu's army, killing and wounding many people, and it was no longer possible to maintain the formation of the four directions. After losing hundreds of people, the 100 Liu troops in the inner encirclement were finally cleared, forming a back-to-back external formation.
Crossing Beiqingdian Town, it was already a flat river, Li Jun ran faster and faster under the leadership of more than 400 iron cavalry, although Liu Gang's army lost its troops, but it was still in hot pursuit.
Suddenly, the 400 iron cavalry turned around, and there was another slash at Liu Jun, at this time Liu Jun had been frightened by the iron cavalry, and retreated one after another, not how to supervise the battle, but did not dare to move forward, forming a situation where the iron cavalry chased backwards.
Liu Gang's 10,000 troops had already lost most of them after this slashing, and watched more than 1,000 infantry go away, and then the 400 iron cavalry turned around and galloped away.
That Liu Gang was ashamed and abnormal, he lost 5,000 soldiers, and he couldn't trap the enemy, and he felt that he couldn't bear the trust of the guerrilla general Luo Tian, and wanted to kill himself with a knife, but was hugged by a general behind him.
"Liu Dusi, look", a soldier pointed not far ahead, the neighing of the war horse, it seemed that the enemy had encountered an attack.
Liu Gang commanded the soldiers to chase after the place where the war horse neighed.
Nearly 100 iron horsemen suddenly rushed towards him, Liu Gang calmed down at this moment, and shouted, "Lie down, cut the horse's legs", Liu Jun was afraid of the sharp blade of the iron horse, and suddenly fell down.
A hundred iron horsemen flew like a lightning speed, and the iron hooves stepped on the Liu soldiers who were lying on the ground.
But the order to "cut off the horse's legs" really worked. There was a neighing of galloping horses, and the roar of iron horses falling to the ground overpowering soldiers. A hundred iron horsemen rushed less than 2 miles of land, and all of them fell. Li Pa's soldiers on the horse were also captured by Liu Jun, who stood up.
"What's going on", Liu Gang took care of nearly eighty iron knights with questions, and commanded the remaining soldiers to continue to chase.
After a short pursuit, he saw that nearly 300 iron knights had been captured, and hundreds of war horses had also been captured.
Sitting on a jujube blue horse was the guerrilla general Luo Tian. Liu Gang ran over and knelt down in front of the horse all of a sudden, "General Luo, the last general is not talented, and the loss of troops is broken, please punish."
Luo Tian jumped off the horse, helped Liu Gang up, and said: "Liu Dusi, please get up, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and your defeat this time is completely in my expectation."
It turned out that this Luo Tian originally led 10,000 troops to attack Rongcheng, but received a report from Tanma, 1,000 Guanning iron horses, in the rear army commanded by Li Pa, he naturally knew that the 1,000 iron horses were powerful, and it was expected that this Liu Gang would not be able to intercept them, so he quickly outflanked him, and heard the sound of being engaged in the battle of Qingdian Town, so he ambushed in the cornfields on both sides of the road, he let go of more than 1,000 infantry, set up multiple tripping horse locks on the road, tripped 300 iron horses, and the remaining 100 iron horses, turned around and ran northward, and were Liu Gang'sBroken by the "horse's leg cutting tactic".
"But those infantrymen", Liu Gang wanted to say but stopped.
"They can't run," Luo Tian said confidently.
Two fireworks bombs rose not far away, lighting up the night sky at once.
"There's a fight over there," General Luo Tian said, pointing not far away.
"They are amazing", Liu Gang has been beaten by this iron cavalry, thinking of the strength of more than 1,000 people, it should not be underestimated.
"If they leave the guards of the iron cavalry, their power will be several times smaller", General Luo Tian said with a smile: "8000 against 1000, even if it is pressed, it will also be flattened."
Liu Gang followed behind Luo Tian and led the team to continue to chase forward.
In a rice field about 3 miles long, a siege is underway. Commanding the siege of Li Pa's army was Liu Ping, another Sipin Dusi under Luo Tian. Liu Ping and Liu Gang, the four products of the capital, are known as Luo Tian's "Double Liu" generals, and the two of them are naturally competing in secret, so they are holding back their strength to show their skills. I don't want to, but in the process of chasing and annihilating Li Pa's post-3000 army, there is a comparison.
In the golden rice fields, Liu Ping set up four blockades, one for every 2,000 people. At this time, the Lipa army, having lost about half of its ranks, tore through the second blockade. Led a team of about 700 people to die and not surrender, Luo Tian's soldiers lost another thousand at this time.
At some point, the moon emerged from the eastern sky and shone on the golden rice fields. At this time, the battle was nearing its end, and when it crossed the three blockade lines, the remaining Li Pa troops, which were less than 400 men, completely lost their combat effectiveness and raised their hands to surrender.
In this battle, Liu Gang's 10,000 troops lost more than half, strangled more than 1,000 opponents, and the battle loss ratio reached 5:1. Liu Ping's 8,000 troops set up four blockade lines, killed and captured about 1,500 of Li Pa's troops, and lost 1,500 of his own troops, with a battle loss ratio of 1:1.
Although the battle was victorious, it used 20,000 people to encircle and suppress 3,000 people, and he also lost nearly 7,000 people, which is really not very good on the surface.
