Chapter 214 Battle 1
At dusk, 826 archers and 300 horsemen from the Liguo Prison patrolled the northern part of the city in batches after a simple organization. 『『【Fengyun Novel Reading Network baoliny】Copy URL Visit wèn:7777772e766f6474772e636f6d dagger dagger first release Ыqi.
From the latest military report, it was learned that there were about 2,000 soldiers and horses in Liangshan who entered Xuzhou, and their cavalry was not 300 horses, but 600 horses.
What is even more worrying is that the 600 cavalry advanced very quickly, but due to the drag of the inpacing, they set up camp in Weishan to rest, waiting for the first batch of infantry.
After analyzing the enemy's situation, Wang Xiu decisively deployed his infantry and 100 cavalry at a distance of 50 miles northeast of Jiancheng, and Qiu Fu personally commanded and waited for the military order, while he led Feng Yuan, Jing Bo, Qiu Yun and 200 cavalry to Weishan.
On the fourth watch, when people were most tired, Wang Xiu deployed the horse team to rest more than ten miles away. Although it was far away from the Liangshan military camp, there were few areas that could be concealed here, and it was easy to be discovered by the enemy's probes
"It's time" Wang Xiu looked at the bright moonlight and rubbed her eyes tiredly. Ordinary officials can sleep with their heads covered, but he can't, and he must always pay attention to the changes in the battlefield to be prepared for possible enemy situations. Fortunately, this group of Liangshan troops was quite arrogant, and did not send out rangers to explore the horses, so that they rested for most of the night and recuperated their spirits.
"Give me the order to hurry up and eat, and I want to go quickly, and attack in a quarter of an hour."
These native soldiers are worthy of being trained by Qiu Fu, all of them are full of iron armor, and their war horses are also full of horse armor, all of them are well-armoured, and they are completely the momentum of elite soldiers.
To say that they don't have sophisticated iron armor, it's a joke, and don't look at what the Li Guojian does, they usually wear leather armor, but Xuzhou is stationed in the Li Guojia Arsenal, but there are hundreds of sets of mountain armor in reserve, since it comes from the Iron and Steel Xinli National Prison, of course those excellent equipment can be used, and there is not much attention to the war, and it is a big deal to send them back after the war, no one will accuse them of tampering with the iron armor harness.
However, this is only a superficial elite soldier, if you want to become a real elite, you still need to be tempered with iron and blood, and those who survive may be called elite soldiers in the next battle.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are going to raid the camp of these bandits, this is a battle of death, do not doubt my words. You have excellent iron armor, the sharpest soldiers, show your courage, break through the interception, any resistance, in front of you, will be a pile of dead things. ”
Wang Xiu rode on a horse, looked around at everyone, and shouted, "I want you to prove that you are elite soldiers from the Li Guojian, and you are by no means something that the rabble can resist." ”
"I am willing to go to the soup with the adults."
"Kill all the bandits."
"Kill the bandits."
These local soldiers of the township army were enthusiastic when they heard this, and they raised their troops and shouted one after another, and they were full of fighting spirit.
Wang Xiu was very satisfied, from the eyes of everyone, he saw the desire of this group of men to fight, but this was not enough, he shouted again loudly, "Okay, let's rush, kill them, rob their wealth, and seize their horses." ”
Everyone roared like hungry wolves, their eyes were red, everything you can get on the battlefield is yours, there is no wealth to make them completely crazy, no one is afraid of money to bite people, for the sake of wealth can make people go to the soup.
Morale is available, Wang Xiu smiled with great satisfaction, he turned the horse's head, his left arm forward, and shouted, "Go, let's kill people." ”
The 200 cavalry slowly formed a column, galloping along the flat path, fast enough to approach the Liangshan military camp, and slowly gathered into five irregular horizontal columns.
I can't help but say that the iron armor of these native soldiers of the township army is all new black paint, and even the helmet has been replaced with black. All the iron armor wore masks, and their slender horse lances were hung with various colored flags, like bloody Shura coming out of the netherworld.
When they attacked, under the bright moonlight, the war horses galloped, the horses were in the air, and the flags were unfurled, although they were two hundred horses, they were actually quite majestic, shocking to the eye, but unfortunately no one appreciated them under the moonlight.
The simple campsite, where can it stop this group of fierce people, whether it is the Liangshan army on duty, or the people who woke up from their sleep, they are all dumbfounded, thinking that it is impossible for Xuzhou to have guards and horse troops, this is absolutely impossible.
The impossible is often the most likely, the moonlight is beautiful and the visibility is very high, but they see rows of black shadows pressing over quickly, and it turned out to be heavy cavalry, which shocked them greatly.
"Horses, quick, divide some men to stop them, and the cavalry will give me horses." A leader summoned the infantry to form a defensive line at the edge, and the first infantry to arrive was absolutely qualified cannon fodder, but there was still time.
Fifty steps, Wang Xiu held a black lacquer bow, pedaled the stirrup, opened the bow and set the arrow, and clamped the horse's belly with his legs to release the arrow. Like a ghost in the night sky, the featherless arrow struck the leader in the face without question, and before he could even shout, he fell to the ground.
The Liangshan army watched the leader being shot, and after a few breaths, they realized the cavalry roaring from the opposite side. When they reacted, Wang Xiu's war horse was already in front of them, and the featherless arrow shot down one person again, and then there was a black frenzy.
"The soldiers and horses of the Zhao family are here."
"guys, quick, quick."
There was chaos in the camp, Wang Xiu was very excited, he rode his horse directly into the gate of the village, galloped left and right, knocked down six or seven people in a row, and always rushed to the front.
Qiu Yun guarded Wang Xiu's side, and followed closely behind him a group of cavalry, all wrapped in iron armor, with all kinds of hideous copper faces, which were definitely exquisite works of art in later generations.
Feng Yuan was holding a stainless steel horse lance, and just galloped into the gate of the village, two brave Liangshan soldiers were cut off their heads, and their blood was splashed.
The native soldiers of the Liguo Township Army galloped into the camp, some held horse lances, some held long knives, some held big guns, and some held strong bows, they were dressed in fine heavy armor, and the horses were protected by iron armor and were not afraid of swords and arrows.
"Kill me, kill me hard." Wang Xiu shouted out of the battlefield, the most arrogant words.
Where will the Liangshan army get the horse for a while and a half, the killed are panicking, in an instant, these people who dare to intercept are overwhelmed by the torrent of steel, a few people were able to escape, after the heavy cavalry, the corpses of the ground are all incomplete, and the blood flows. Wang Xiu shot almost all the arrows left and right, and there were more than 20 people he had killed, and he had already charged back and forth three times. At this time, the Liangshan army had already recovered, Wang Xiu and the resistance they encountered became more and more tenacious, and the increase in tents also limited the power of the cavalry, and the real bloody battle had just begun
