Chapter 311: The Black Knight

"This ......" Qin Zhongyu thought for a moment, and then roughly explained the course of this battle with Bai Qi in more concise language.

"Understood......" Bai Qi said, "Sure enough, as the last general thought, the Battle of Gaugamela you mentioned has a lot in common with this battle, and it is not enough that he will learn from his previous experience, but unfortunately our Qin army is not a temporary Persian army, and our emperor is not a timid Persian king who is afraid of death!"

Bai Qi was even more determined in his decision, he did not immediately mobilize the left and right armies, but ordered the left and right legions to continue to pay attention to the vigilance and defense.

Because Bai Qi knew that this was not a necessary thing.

The current Qin army, the number of the Chinese army alone is an exaggerated 400,000, so many people, if you want to complete the encirclement of Alexander's personal guard cavalry, you don't need to use the left and right armies at all. And if 400,000 people can't stop Alexander, then even if it is increased to 600,000, I'm afraid it doesn't make any sense!

On the contrary, if the Chinese army is panicked when it sees the opponent's direct attack on the Chinese army, and the left and right armies are transferred at the same time, then it is very likely to bring opportunities to the 2nd and 3rd combined phalanxes of Macedonia, which have not yet joined the battle. Because the role of the left and right armies is to protect the flanks of the Chinese army, if they are moved at will, it is very likely that the flanks of the Chinese army will be completely exposed, giving the other side an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Therefore, the continued persistence of Meng Tian and Wang Jian is an important force to deter the other two joint phalanxes of the Macedonian legion!

However, Alexander's onslaught did not appear to be weakened in the slightest, and he and his personal cavalry were so strong that it seemed that it was only a matter of time before they broke through the central line of the Qin army.

"Your Majesty......" At this time, Bai Qi said to Yingzheng, "Then Alexander doesn't seem to be an idle person, so leave it to the last general to solve it personally......"

"Is it okay? you will leave the position of the chief general in person?" asked Yingzheng.

"No problem...... With His Majesty here, the military soul of the Qin army is there, not to mention that all the last general has to do is to thwart the opponent's spirit, so there is no need to worry...... Otherwise, if that Alexander is allowed to be so presumptuous, they really think that there is no one in my Qin army!"

"Okay, then I wish you victory......" Ying Zheng looked at Bai Qi and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty......"

Turning around, Bai Qi immediately shouted loudly, "Black knights, follow me!"

"Yes!"

At one time, the number of people who responded to Bai Qi's call was about 5,000!

At this time, Bai Qi had already rushed towards Alexander on his mount, and Bai Qi was followed by a cavalry force of about 5,000 men who had previously responded to the call.

"It's ...... What kind of troops? It feels so powerful......"

Obviously, Qin Zhongyu felt that the troops led by Bai Qi were obviously different from ordinary troops.

All of them were wearing black armor, not only their bodies, but even the horses under their crotches were surrounded by black armor. Moreover, they have Qin crossbows in their hands, and at the same time, they are equipped with long swords at their waists, and they are all vigorous, and they look like elite troops who have experienced a hundred battles.

And Bai Qi went with such a special force to stop Alexander.

"Zhong Yu," at this time, Ying Zheng looked at Bai Qi's back from the side, and at the same time explained to Qin Zhongyu, "This is General Bai Qi's own elite cavalry unit, Zhong Yu, don't underestimate this army, they made great achievements in the Battle of Changping back then!"

"Have you made great achievements in the Battle of Changping?" was reminded by Ying Zheng, Qin Zhongyu suddenly thought that according to historical records, there seemed to be such a force in history.

Among them, there is indeed such a record in Sima Qian's "Historical Records": "The Zhao army won the victory and pursued the Qin Wall." The wall refused to enter, and after Qin Qi's soldiers were 25,000 and the Zhao army, another army of 5,000 cavalry was cut off between the Zhao walls, and the Zhao army was divided into two, and the grain was cut off. ”

The meaning of this passage is that the Zhao army continued to pursue as soon as it won the victory, but the Qin army could not hold out, and the Zhao army could not attack. At the same time, the Qin army sent 25,000 surprise soldiers to cut off the back road of the Zhao army, and at the same time sent 5,000 cavalry to divide the Zhao army into two and cut off the grain route of the Zhao army!

Qin Zhongyu remembered that when he saw this passage at that time, he was surprised that there was actually a cavalry of 5,000 people, which was able to cut the Zhao army, which numbered as much as 400,000 people, into two sections from the middle!

Of course, of course, when the Zhao army was pursuing the Qin army, the formation was lengthened, resulting in the inability to take care of each other, but I am afraid that the more reason is that these 5,000-strong cavalry troops have combat effectiveness that cannot be compared with ordinary troops!

"What kind of cavalry has such a powerful fighting power, and how will they fight?" Qin Zhongyu suddenly looked forward to it.

At this time, under the command of Bai Qi, the previous ordinary Qin army began to get out of the way, and at the same time, Bai Qi and the black-clothed cavalry he led followed the road that had just been dispersed, and rushed directly towards the red-cloaked Alexander.

……

"Oh, I think something more interesting is coming...... It seems that Qin Jun can still surprise me a lot......" On the other side, Alexander also saw Bai Qi rushing towards him.

At first, when Alexander saw that the Qin army had automatically separated from the middle, he thought that he had begun to shake the command system of the Qin army, however, when Alexander saw that a completely different cavalry unit appeared in the center of the separated Qin army, Alexander knew that a stronger opponent was coming.

Alexander's personal guard cavalry numbered about 3,000 people, and when they stormed the Qin army's array, they also lost a lot, and now they only have about 2,000 people.

However, the cavalry on the other side had a full 5,000 people, all of them in black clothes and black armor, and although the general at the fraction looked quite old, there was a terrifying killing intent flashing in his eyes.

"It's like someone who has come out of a pile of corpses, and at the same time there is absolute confidence in his own strength in his eyes...... Such a person must be a strong man......" Alexander couldn't help but think so.

But no matter how strong the opponent is, it is impossible for Alexander to retreat, because there is no way back at this moment.

Although Alexander was possessed by the "Wrath of Zeus" at this moment, and the surrounding Qin troops could not approach him at all, Alexander also knew that such a powerful spell could not last forever, and in the camp of the Qin army with 400,000 people, the damage caused by himself was only a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, the soldiers of the Qin army who kept coming up would exhaust all their strength, and if they couldn't take down the supreme commander of the Qin army in one go, then even if they were themselves, they would never have a chance to escape again.
