Chapter 1267 Breaking the Formation

However, the fifth is indeed the best among the Song generals, and the choice of this place is really tricky.

Fortunately, there are no loopholes.

The road here is flanked on both sides of the hillside, and in addition to the chariots in the middle of the road are very densely placed, there are also on the slopes on both sides, which are connected to form a temporary wall.

However, the defense line was too long, and the planters did not have so many vans in their hands, so the vans on the hillside were placed according to the terrain, and there was a passage between the carts for two horses to pass through, and the cavalry of Gao Yongneng and Gao Yongheng were arranged at both ends of the chariot line.

Although there was no earth-shattering thunder, the Song people's crane shin crossbows were very powerful, and the six thousand crossbowmen hid behind the van and fired crossbow arrows through the shooting holes, so that the three waves of foot soldiers sent by Liang Yongneng suffered heavy losses.

The Song army rebuke, has long been recruited into the car formation, only when the Xia army is impacted, there are spear and shield men from between the car and the car to defend the workshop passage, after the battle and hide back behind the formation to rest.

Of course, Liang Yongneng would not be stupid enough to attack the dense vans in the middle of the road, so the relatively weak car formations on the slopes on both sides became his main attack direction.

The third wave of attacks was finally repulsed by the Song army again, and under the hillside car formation, the open ground within a hundred paces was full of Xia corpses.

The Song people also lost a lot of guns and shields, and the bloody battle has reached this point, the Xia army has lost tens of thousands of people, and the Song army has also suffered more than 3,000 losses.

Liang Yongneng didn't care, the Song army has always been like this, the rooster and the head is hard, and he is very tenacious when he forms a formation, but once the formation is broken, he will all be driven into ducks by the cavalry.

Seeing that the spear and shield men who came out from behind the car formation to resist were getting thinner and thinner, Liang Yongneng finally made a decision in the afternoon, the Song people's crossbow arrows were too powerful, and the only thing that could be cracked was the two thousand iron harriers under his own hands.

"It should be over." Liang Yongneng rode on the white horse of the divine horse and said to the hemp girl beside him, Yan Duoge: "Blow the trumpet." ”

Woo woo woo - the majestic horn sounded in the river valley, and the crossbowmen of the Song army behind the carriage finally saw the top force of the Western Xia people - the iron harrier!

The whole body of the horses is covered with armor, and the Xia people do not have as many anti-rust patterns as the Song people, and Jialiang uses the simplest method to polish the armor brightly.

The shiny armor is not easily contaminated with water vapor, it can have a good anti-rust effect, and such a sophisticated and terrifying full-body armor cluster is enough to make all the strongest armies of today lose the confidence to resist.

"It's finally here!" He also stood up from the tiger pier: "Prepare the horse, there is no retreat in this battle!" ”

In the distance, two thousand iron cavalry gradually gathered into two cavalry formations under the sound of the trumpet, and then began to slowly press towards the Song army's chariot formation.

The horse came to the nervous standard-bearer, reached out to grasp the flag and flagpole, and smiled at the young standard-bearer: "Are you afraid? ”

The standard-bearer turned pale and pursed his lips, but shook his head anyway.

He smiled and said: "It's nothing, when I first came to the battle array, I was more afraid than you, so afraid that I couldn't even issue a military order, so that thousands of warriors would die in the city." ”

Chong Yu held the flagpole tightly, so that the banner remained motionless, staring at the iron horse that was gradually accelerating down the slope, and something seemed to be flashing in his eyes: "However, now I'm not afraid." ”

The bright light of the sun made the heavy cavalry array below the slope look like two streams that defied gravity, sweeping towards the hillside.

The weight of a single horse is nearly 1,000 catties, plus people and armor, each Iron Harrier carries a huge kinetic energy, which is also the origin of the Iron Harrier's terrifying combat power.

But today's terrain is really special, so when the iron harrier reached the bottom of the hill, the torrent of steel suddenly slowed down!

The horses continued to dutifully climb the hill and fulfill their tasks, but the speed of the Iron Harriers gradually decreased, and the formation became denser and denser.

The rider Rulin's spear was flattened, and Liang Yongneng was also a smart general, although he was not merciless when he killed Meng Meng, but the information brought back by Meng Meng made Liang Yongneng keenly aware of the value of Di Yong's move, and then immediately equipped it on the Iron Harrier.

The Song people's crane shin crossbow shot wildly again, but this time, it could no longer stop the torrent of steel!

The steel crossbow against the steel armor, except for a few unlucky eggs who were pierced by the arrows in the eye window, the rest of the arrows could only leave a dent in the steel armor, and after the spark that could not be covered by the sun at all, it was bounced away.

The first batch of iron horses, with an irresistible attitude, finally broke into the Song army's car array!

"Win!" Ma Nu Duoge excitedly bowed her hand to Liang Yongneng: "Congratulations to the handsome!" ”

But at this moment, Ma Nu Duoge saw Liang Yongneng's expression change greatly, and quickly turned his head, just when he saw those iron horsemen who broke into the car array, they fell to the ground one after another!

The follow-up iron cavalry couldn't stop at all, and immediately stepped on the body of his comrade, falling one after another! The gap in the chariot formation was blocked with the bodies of men and horses.

There were also many iron riders who tried to storm the cart, but the cart was full of sandbags, and in addition to the shooting hole, the car was also full of sandbags.

The spear snapped, and the iron horse neighed, but it could not shake the chariot in the slightest.

He planted a set of traps of his own invention between the chariots, called the "iron ladder".

The iron ladder is a wooden square about one foot high and about four inches thick, and the wooden square is perforated and pierced into the steel bar, like a ladder lying flat on the ground.

The ladder was firmly nailed to the ground, and underneath the ladder was hollowed out to a depth of a foot.

Iron ladders are laid on top of the shallow pits.

Before, when the spear and shield men entered and exited the car formation, the iron ladder was also laid with wooden planks and sprinkled with mud, and the Xia people did not find it after a fierce battle for half a day.

When Liang Yongneng finally dispatched the Iron Harrier, the planter pulled away the planks on the iron ladder, turning the seemingly weak defense line into a murderous trap!

When the iron rider stepped in, the front hooves immediately sank into a foot, and the huge movement caused the horse to fall with a bang, and the iron tendons easily broke the horse's legs!

Countless Iron Harriers were stuck between the chariots, and more Iron Harriers broke in, again suffering the same fate, blocking their comrades on the grassy slope.

The collision of the iron horses made a terrifying loud noise in front of the formation, the horses neighed sadly, the spears flew away, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

The general suddenly let go: "Wave the flag, fire the cannon!" ”

The recruit riders were frightened, but instinctively waved the red flag, and at the same time, the cannon in the formation roared angrily.

Some copper pipes suddenly appeared from the shooting holes of the van, and the sergeant in the car broke the knob, and streams of clear liquid suddenly sprayed out of the copper pipes!

The part of the pipe that was only in the hands of the sergeants was metal, and at the back was the Ground Hose, attached to a huge lead-lined wooden box at the back.

On both sides of each large wooden box, two soldiers frantically shake the pressure wheel to ensure the pressure of the water tank and let the liquid spray farther.

This thing is called a water dragon, a common object in the water and fire shop in Bianjing City, and some small improvements have been made to the plant, and the water pipe is extended with butyl glue, and then gasoline is filled inside.

The farmer is now also a wealthy man in Shaanxi, and he started from the output of a few oil wells, and the most in his hands is gasoline.

Condescendingly, the gasoline was sprinkled by dozens of water dragons all over the area where the iron harriers gathered.

The smell of oil volatilization made the iron harriers frightened, but the iron horses were heavy and crowded, and it was not so easy to turn around on the terrain like the mouth of the gourd.

It was too late, dozens of Molotov cocktails were thrown out from behind the van, and after hitting the ground, they exploded one by one.

With a bang, the triangle in front of the car formation suddenly turned into a sea of fire!

For this moment, he didn't know how many times he had practiced, and Liang Yongneng in the distance felt that in front of him was just a blink of an eye, and the iron harrier that the Xia people were proud of suddenly disappeared into a sea of fire!

Such a large area of fire broke out in an instant, which made the Chinese army of the Xia people exclaim, however, even more terrible things were still to come!

In the sea of fire, countless war horses with raging flames seemed to run out of the gate of hell, and with the heavily armored knights who were also burning and screaming incessantly, they rushed towards Liang Yongneng's Chinese army!

The armor and waistcoat of the heavily armored knights were held together by hinges.

Originally intended to prevent knights from falling off their horses, it has now become a noose for the knights' lives!

The two thousand iron harriers, most of them were still struggling in the sea of fire, and the outermost ones, the horses turned around, frantically trying to escape from that terrifying area and rush towards the Xia army's central army!

At both ends of the car formation, Gao Yongneng and Gao Yongheng waved their long knives: "Kill-" led the light cavalry to launch a second charge.

In several valleys on the side of the road, and on several hillsides, the banners of the Song army were lit up, and countless Song troops were condescending and rushed towards the chaste Xia people.

"Kill—"

This is a huge trap designed by a kind of sting, and what he wants is to wipe out all these 80,000 Xia people!

What made Liang Yongneng frightened was that among the Song army, there was also a heavy armored cavalry army of more than 1,000 people!

Pick up the striker battalion!

This is the most elite cavalry under the command of a kind of man, all of them are heavily armoured, and they are led by the fierce general Guo Jingxiu.

The strict order given to him was that no matter how critical the situation of the Chinese army was, the Xuanfeng battalion could not move, and it was necessary to wait until the red flag of the Chinese army waved and the trumpet cannon sounded before launching a charge.

Several Song armies led by the heavy armor Xuanfeng slammed into Liang Yongneng's Chinese army one after another, and the flank of the Xia army was immediately broken under the impact of a thousand heavy cavalry, and was cut into two parts in the front and rear in a blink of an eye.

The violent collision was like thunder in the clouds, and the blood of the soldiers of the Xia Army was sprinkled like a downpour between the yellow sand and green grass.

Guo Jingxiu threw away the spear that had been broken, swung the leaf hammer connected by a leather rope under his wrist, and slammed it on the side of the head of a cavalry Xia soldier in front of him, "Kill-"

Ma Nu Duoge drew her sword and tried her best to restrain the mount that was thrilled by the smoke and heat: "Hurry up, Dashuai, I'll break the back!" ”

At this moment, the iron harrier on fire had already rushed into the chaotic military formation of the Xia army, becoming the last straw that crushed the Xia people!

The cavalry of the second highest in front had also joined the combined attack team and began to slash wildly.

Liang Yongneng gritted his teeth and turned the horse's head: "Withdraw—"
