066 Victory in the first battle
The light vehicle is a kind of fast mobile chariot in which one soldier drives two soldiers to attack, this kind of chariot is placed on the flat battlefield around the city, it is simply a bug-like existence, and the extremely high mobility and attack power are enough to deal with all possible enemies.
The lancers of the 1st Cavalry Division were the first to collide head-on with this phalanx of chariots, which consisted entirely of light vehicles.
The two light chariot soldiers used their bows and arrows to shoot indiscriminately before the two sides made contact, and due to the lack of resources in Northland County, even the lancers in charge of fighting the vanguard only had light armor on the horses of a few officers, so it can be said that there was no resistance at all.
From the moment the phalanx of light vehicles began to bend their bows and arrows to the collision between the two sides, nearly 100 lancers were directly shot and killed in a distance of only 100 meters.
Because the lancers need to charge with a four-meter-long spear, even if they have a three-piece set of war horses, they still can't carry **, and can only rely on their flesh and blood to force a charge, unable to counterattack or suppress.
When the distance is close enough, the soldiers on the chariot can discard their bows and arrows and pick up a six-meter-long halberd to fight, which can be said to be almost a dominant existence when facing cavalry.
"Kill!"
One inch long and one inch strong, yes, the difference in the length of the weapons of the two sides is a full two meters, so that the spearmen who rushed to the front cannot kill the enemy soldiers on the chariot at all, but does this mean that they can only be beaten passively?
The soldier who rushed to the front directly took the way of exchanging his life for his life, and directly hit the enemy's halberd with his flesh and blood with the powerful impact generated by the charge, and the spear in his hand stabbed directly at the enemy soldier driving the chariot.
Due to the horizontal fight in front of the halberd, the lancers did not dodge at all and just rushed forward, which directly led to the powerful impact force that instantly flew the enemy soldiers holding the halberd from the top of the chariot, and the soldier in charge of driving the chariot was also pierced by a shot.
The light chariot composed of three people, two people were killed in one face, and due to the death of the chariot soldier, the reins of the war horse were suddenly pulled to the side, and the chariot immediately turned suddenly, and the only remaining charioteer could not react effectively at all and was directly killed by the lancers who rushed up after him.
With one horse for one car, the three thousand cavalry of the 1st Cavalry Division Lancer Regiment exchanged their lives for their lives, directly destroyed the coalition chariot phalanx, crossed the coalition chariot phalanx, and saw that they were about to face the coalition cavalry, but they did not expect the Qin army lancers to change to holding the reins with a gun in one hand and the reins in the other, and then directly turned the direction and moved to both sides to leave the battlefield.
The lancers on this side gave way to the front, and the main force of the cavalry of the Qin army, wielding sabers, appeared in front of the allied cavalry.
Looking at the Qin cavalry with iron swords in their hands, those coalition cavalry almost laughed, as if they had seen the result of the Qin soldiers being cut under their horses, and they slowed down and prepared to fight.
But what they didn't expect was that the two sides were about to collide together, and these Qin cavalry didn't slow down at all, but their speed even increased slightly!
锵~~~
As the saber collided with the bronze sword, with the sparks that burst out with the violent collision, the bronze long sword in the hands of the coalition cavalry suddenly collapsed!
The allied cavalry finally realized a terrible fact, the Qin cavalry in front of them was not at all a ragtag army lacking weapons and training as they thought, but a real elite of the Qin army!
......
"You mean that there are cavalry of our army fighting the enemy?"
"Yes, just south of the city!"
"Which side of the army is coming from, how can they be so reckless!"
While letting the lieutenant take him to the city wall to watch, he couldn't help but be a little angry.
Meng Fu has been guarding the city for several days without receiving reinforcements, and it has been so difficult to defend the city, and finally there are reinforcements who did not expect to enter the city directly, but instead fought with the coalition forces on the plains outside the city, which is clearly hitting the stone with an egg!
"It's our people, it's our people, they killed the enemy!"
Before he climbed the city wall, before he could find the battlefield, Meng Fu heard the cheers of the soldiers guarding the city beside him.
"Where, where!"
The more he heard such cheers, the more heavy Meng Xiao's mood became, the number of enemies was so large, most of the elite of the Qin army had already been killed, and the rest were some miscellaneous armies, in his opinion, it was impossible to repel the coalition army, then the only possibility was that this was a bureau laid down by the coalition army, in order to attract the Qin army to rush forward, so as to annihilate it in one fell swoop.
But when he looked in the direction of the lieutenant's finger, this veteran of the Qin State, who was already white-bearded, actually began to wave his arms unconsciously!
......
"Die, dog offal!"
The coalition army was responsible for defending the front line on the south side of Yucheng with a full 100,000 army, but the number of cavalry was only 10,000, and Li Ling put into the battlefield with 15,000 cavalry equipped to crush in all directions, and the result can be imagined!
The allied cavalry was routed on all fronts in less than half an hour after the two sides engaged, and they all turned around and fled.
It was precisely because of the rout of the coalition cavalry that the coalition infantry following them was unable to use long weapons and shields to build a defensive line against the cavalry onslaught.
How could Li Ling let go of such an obvious loophole?
Without doing anything, Li Ling directly threw the remaining 5,000 reserves into the battlefield and did everything possible to inflict heavy losses on the enemy.
The coalition forces were in disarray, and the Qin cavalry almost rushed into the coalition infantry with the cavalry that had fled.
Originally, the cavalry was a massacre against the infantry without array, let alone the current state?
One-sided slaughter, all-round rout!
"Escaped, they escaped!"
"Mingjin, let everyone retreat, don't chase too deep!"
From the cavalry rushing into the infantry of the coalition army to the complete rout of the coalition army to the withdrawal of Mingjin, there was only one hour!
In this short period of time, nearly 40,000 allied troops were killed.
"Why did the general want to mingle?"
Zhang Han, the commander of the 1st Cavalry Division who was only 22 years old, came back and found Li Ling.
"What's wrong? Is it difficult for you to follow these coalition forces to their camp? ”
"Why not!"
Zhang Han is full of ambition, in his opinion, the coalition army is so vulnerable, as long as he fights, he will definitely be able to lead his troops to kill in the coalition camp.
Li Ling didn't say much, he directly stepped forward and picked up Zhang Han's right hand, and lightly touched Zhang Han's torn tiger's mouth.
"Do you now know why I let you come back?"
