Chapter 580: Sweeping
In the sky, the dense clouds were gloomy, just like this battlefield, depressing and solemn.
The front of the Longwu army was like a cone to carve through the enemy, and the 40,000 iron cavalry behind advanced like a wall, wielding sabers to drive away the scattered cavalry of the old battalion.
The skull is rolling, the broken limbs are flying, and the screams are heard in all directions, at this moment, human life is not worth anything!
Looking at the fleeing cavalry of the Shun army, the Longwu army did not rectify, nor did it clean up the battlefield, and the 40,000 iron cavalry rolled away, rushing straight to the main formation of the Dashun army from the flank.
In the Dashun army, most of the people looked to the right flank on this side, only hearing people shouting the neighing of horses and the roar of iron hooves, but they didn't know what was happening there.
At the height of the Chinese army, the faces of Li Zicheng and the others were already pale, others could not see the battle situation over there, but they could see clearly from the heights, the two sides had just collided, and the fight lasted for a while, and then it suddenly ended!
Seeing Liu Zongmin and the others galloping in a hurry on horseback, as well as a large number of old battalion soldiers behind him, the hearts of the generals trembled fiercely.
At this time, the old battalion routs almost threw away the weapons in their hands, and many of them ran wildly all the way with their horses' necks, looking extremely desolate in a chaotic manner.
The old battalion cavalry was routed so quickly that the men and horses on the right flank of Dashun were taken by surprise.
Li Zicheng pointed over there and roared: "Order Liu Tichun, the right wing line up to resist the horse and intercept!" Then order Yuan Zongdi to lead the old battalion cavalry to reinforcements! ”
The hurried horn sounded, and Guangshan Bo Liu Tichun quickly ordered to assemble men and horses to defend, but in the face of the rolling tens of thousands of iron horses, the Shun army was already panicked.
Liu Tichun immediately ordered the Ma Jundu team to cut down some fearful soldiers, which barely stabilized the morale of the army, and put dozens of chariots, horses and other things in front of him, and thousands of archers also hurried to the small dirt slope.
Time is in a hurry, and the right wing of the Shun army can only be arranged so much.
The 40,000 iron cavalry of the Longwu Army almost chased after the defeated cavalry of the old battalion, looking at the chaotic defense line arranged in front of them, and the spears of the Shun army lined up like a forest.
Cao Bianjiao looked at him coldly, and still issued a simple and clear military order: "Rush and kill the past!" ”
The low horn sounded, and under the dark mask of the cavalry of the Dragon Martial Army, a pair of cold eyes instantly burst into brilliance, and without the slightest hesitation, they accelerated and rushed towards the enemy's dense gun array!
The sound of horses' hooves like a life talisman rumbled, and the dense charging queue of the iron cavalry of the Dragon Martial Army swept away like a torrent of iron armor!
With a "buzzing" sound like locusts, the Shun archers on the hillside launched a round of projectiles, and the rain of arrows in the sky smashed like hail on the heads and bodies of the charging cavalry.
The cavalry of the Dragon Martial Army unanimously pressed their bodies very low, holding their sabers tightly in their hands, shaking the rain of arrows.
The rain of arrows swept through like a violent wind, and immediately nearly a hundred horsemen were overturned and fell off their horses by the powerful force, and more cavalrymen wearing black armor still gritted their teeth and insisted although they were hit by arrows, and some even had four or five feather arrows stuck in their bodies.
No screams, no chaos, just keep the momentum of the charge!
In the hearts of all the cavalry of the Dragon Martial Army, there was only the low sound of the charging horn, and the indomitable momentum in their hearts!
The horses' hooves are thundering and dusty!
When encountering the chaotic chariots and rejecting horses in front, the front of the Longwu army quickly dispersed, calmly passed from both sides, and then gathered together again, such a sophisticated riding skill, so that the right wing Shunjun in charge of defense was dumbfounded.
Rumble!!
The cavalry in the front line slammed into the shield wall and gun forest arranged by the Shun army, and directly knocked a row of Shun army foot soldiers with shields into the air.
The first wave of dragon cavalry was the most seriously damaged, and many fell off their horses, but more iron cavalry rushed behind, and they rushed into the gap with fire dragon spears in hand, and swept away the surrounding Shun troops.
The temporary Shunjun shield wall was rushed and the people turned over on their backs, the gap was hit bigger and bigger, and the right-wing Shun army broke back in terror.
A large number of dragon martial troops rolled in, rushing towards the densest infantry array of the Shun army, and even if the spears of the Shun army stabbed them, they were still like a wave crashing on the shore, rushing to kill the past!
The defense line on the right flank of the Shun army was destroyed in an instant, and the entire phalanx was also swept away by this rushing torrent.
There was a shout of slaughter, blood everywhere, and countless stumps flew up.
Dashun's first fierce general, Mianhou Yuan Zongdi held a double whip, quickly came, he single-handedly slaughtered into the Longwu army formation, left and right slashing, as if into no man's land.
Suddenly, Cao Bianjiao, who was dressed in black armor and wearing a red cloak, shouted violently, held a fire dragon spear in his hand, and stabbed with a fierce shot.
Yuan Zongdi swung his whip away, only to feel that his right hand was slightly numb, and a strong force attacked, the armor on his body was penetrated, and the whole person was stabbed under the horse, thrown out several meters away.
Cao Bianjiao didn't look back, he still rode his horse forward, he raised his gun and pointed it obliquely ahead, and shouted: "Long Wujun, follow me to rush and kill!" ”
"Kill!"
The strong horsemen of the Longwu Army all responded violently, riding their horses like dragons, and swept away with unstoppable momentum towards the Shun Army!
Sharp spears, snow-bright sabers, and heavy iron hooves shook the earth, dense as a shower, and the dragon martial army carried the momentum of crushing everything, which made people suffocate.
The soldiers of the Chinese army were shocked, agitated, and retreated in terror and cowardice.
Li Zicheng was riding on a horse, his face was pale and blue, and he looked at the front deadly, he had clearly seen that the general of the Ming army who led the iron cavalry to kill was Cao Bianjiao.
Li Zicheng, Li Guo and others shuddered in unison, as if they had returned to the scene six years ago when they were dominated by Cao Bianjiao and three thousand iron horsemen.
This guy didn't take off his armor back then, and he chased himself for 27 days! Who can understand that feeling of despair?
In the Dragon Martial Army, Cao Bianjiao also saw the yellow umbrella on the hillside, and the one-eyed dragon under the yellow umbrella.
He stared at the figure deadly, resentful in his heart, if it wasn't for the accident in Xi'an, he had to come back to help, he would have beheaded Li Zicheng under the horse, what kind of bullshit Emperor Yongchang came from!
At this time, Cao Bianjiao has been depressed for many years, and in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, he chased for twenty-seven days and nights, letting Li Zicheng run away;
In the twelfth year of Chongzhen, in the Great War of Liaodong, he led thousands of cavalry to attack the imperial camp of the Qing army, and almost killed Huang Taiji, but once again fell short!
Missing two opportunities in a row, Cao Bianjiao's emotions that he had suppressed for several years were finally about to explode, and he said to himself in a deep voice: "In this battle, no matter how you Li Zicheng run to the ends of the earth, I, Cao Bianjiao, will definitely kill you under the horse!" ”
In the imperial camp of the Shun army, Li Zicheng's eyes were blood-red, and he roared like crazy: "Let Lao Tzu's old camp rush over, and all the Chinese troops will press up and surround them!" ”
The sound of the Shun military drums was chaotic, the horns were whining, and a large number of Shun troops went to the Longwu army to surround and kill, and all kinds of chariot camps that refused horses were filled up without their lives.
In the face of such a strong ironclad torrent, the formation of the Shun army was chaotic, all kinds of commotion, some wanted to charge to block, some timidly retreated, no matter how much the rear overseers encouraged or threatened, it was useless at this time.
