Chapter 230: Fierce Fighting

Sima took advantage of the chaos of the Chinese army and horses as fast as he could, and withdrew the easily frightened cattle and horses to the rear, ready to fend off the enemy cavalry that broke through his left flank. All the infantry pressed directly on it, covered the front with door panels, protected the longbow from approaching the enemy line, and then gave the enemy a killing blow. Everything was set up in place, and the order was given again.

At the same time, while his left flank was under the onslaught of the enemy cavalry, he launched his right flank and launched an attack on the left flank cavalry, which was protecting the enemy's center.

10,000 of the cavalry on the right flank of Zhongshan, who had already killed the enemy, immediately released their enthusiasm for war after receiving the general's order, shouted loudly, and killed Zhao Wuji's army formation with superior forces. After Zhao Wujian discharged all the crossbow arrows, the two sides were killed together. For a while, the shouting and killing were loud, and the killing of the two sides was inseparable.

Two hours passed, and the soldiers on both sides suffered numerous casualties and were exhausted. But it was at this time that the first to collapse was the left flank defense line in Nakayama. Under the blow of Zhao Xing's superior numbers and absolutely superior equipment, the tenacious but Kurang Liang penetrated the defense line of the enemy's cavalry and opened the opening, and then he did not hesitate to lead the soldiers and rushed towards the enemy's Chinese infantry.

And Zhao Xing also saw the situation on the battlefield clearly at this time, and immediately ordered the Junqiu soldiers beside him: "Lead the team to turn around and entangle the enemy's cavalry." ”

This is Zhao Xing's order, the only range that can be conveyed, so Zhao Xing's cavalry was immediately divided into two, one followed the lord and fought with the remaining cavalry of the enemy, and the other under the leadership of Cangliang, and the chariot soldiers urgently sent by Sima Li to confront, the two sides were completely entangled together, and the whole battlefield became tragic and chaotic.

On the main road of Danqiu and Zuoren, a torrent of steel was rolling and galloping, Zhao Hao and Le Yi rode on the galloping horses, galloping and discussing.

"According to the report of the night, Sima Li's whole army was dispatched, leaving less than 3,000 defenders to defend the city, so I will lead my 15,000 soldiers to attack the city, and you take your soldiers to insert between Sima Li and the left people, one to isolate Sima Li and return to help, and to help the eldest brother." Zhao Hao instructed the third brother.

Le Yi thinks this method is feasible: "Our brother has taken advantage of the eldest brother, don't make it true." It's a safe way, so let's do it. ”

Then he yelled at his own soldiers behind him: "Follow me." As a result, this torrent of steel immediately split into two streams, one that continued to kill behind the left man, and the other that stabbed the field battle group.

The soldiers led by Zhao Xing, with five hundred Junqiu soldiers as the core, were really fierce tigers descending the mountain, they slashed with knives, hit with their bodies, and collided with war horses, and the Zhongshan cavalry did not have the slightest power to fight back. They can only use their own flesh and blood to contain this part of the enemy, and prevent them from quickly joining the force that will attack their own Chinese army.

Kurara rushed towards the enemy's central army, and the first one to collide was the convoy that had been stripped out to block them.

Sima Li took advantage of the situation and besieged a wall with chariots drawn by oxen, and the chariots drawn by war horses became a movable fortress to deal with the enemy.

This time, Zhao Xing's cavalry once again demonstrated the agility and maneuverability of the cavalry against the chariot. They hung up their swords, picked up their crossbows again, and began to shoot on horseback around the heavy chariots, although the enemy archers on the chariots also shot their accurate arrows, but after all, there were few such chariots, less than a hundred, and under Cangliang's more than 5,000 crossbows, they were wiped out in the blink of an eye.

Then they began to storm the wall of ox-carts and began to gallop back and forth, but they were also shot by the enemy's infantry archers hiding behind the chariots, after all, the cavalry crossbows did not shoot as far as the infantry bows, and Kuraliang's men were killed and wounded.

Cang Liang immediately made a decision, and ordered loudly to the two brigade commanders under him: "Give up the attack on the chariot, divide the left and right, and launch the Eight Banners Cavalry Shooting Formation." ”

The two brigade commanders immediately answered the order loudly, and began to carry out a cavalry attack around Sima Li's Chinese army with their soldiers.

At this time, Zhao Xing also solved the remaining enemies and joined the Chinese cavalry shooting against Sima Li.

More than 10,000 cavalry, roaring around Sima Li's Chinese army to launch a cavalry shooting technique, for a time, countless crossbow arrows shot at the enemy's infantry, so that Zhongshan's infantry can only be beaten passively, but there is no chance to fight back.

When Sima Li saw this, he hurriedly issued a flag, mobilized the right wing cavalry that was entangled with Zhao Wuji's death, and used the remaining cavalry to block the enemy's bypass.

How could Zhao Wujian let them go, roared wildly, gave up his life and death, and continued to entangle with the enemy.

And Zhao Xing also divided a part of his men and horses to meet the enemy, and in the blink of an eye, outside of Sima Li's Chinese army, another battlefield was generated.

Seeing such a situation, Xu Jie gritted his teeth and directly ordered the Poxi army not to retreat but to advance, and the whole army pressed on, and with all the weapons that could be fired, the javelin stones were smashed into the enemy's Chinese army like hail and rain.

Sima Li regretted that he had underestimated his enemy at the time. But in fact, he is not entirely to blame, he decided to take advantage of the enemy's main force to divide the troops and occupy his own absolute superiority, and first destroyed Zhao Xing's main force. Then the war to the north was victoriously over.

In this era, the victory or defeat of the war is still based on the calculation of the number of participants on both sides, and winning more with less is rare after all.

As soon as his decision came out, of course, none of his subordinates objected, even if it was a reminder, but the whole army responded together. Because they were as proud as Sima Li, and they underestimated their enemies.

This kind of emotion began when their Xiang Gang Lao defeated the Yan Kingdom, the country of ten thousand vehicles, and captured their thirty cities. They no longer take the surrounding country of ten thousand times in their eyes, and they will not take a small lord of the Zhao country in their eyes.

As a result, they really didn't expect that the enemy's Poxi army would be so difficult, so highly skilled, and so well-armed. I didn't expect that the cavalry who was proud of themselves had almost no strength to fight back when facing Zhao Xing's cavalry, and their equipment simply made all the soldiers helpless against them.

And the formation they are now showing in front of them is so unheard of that they have no way to deal with it.

And what made him feel even more deeply was that Zhao Xing's cavalry simply subverted the perception of the world's cavalry, and it was a new type of troops, a class of troops born with a new formation, which was simply unpredictable in this era, yes, it was an elusive class.

Defeated, Sima Li had already recognized the reality, so he exerted the decisiveness of his famous general, and the rest of the chariots were behind, rushing through the opening with all his strength, and the whole army turned around, attacked the Zuoren City, and retreated to the Zuoren City. Next time, at all costs, you will have to rely on the city walls to defend it.

But when he turned, Sima Li found a situation that killed him - unconsciously, he was too far away from his back to rely on the city of the left, far enough that when a new force of the enemy rushed over, he easily inserted himself and the city of the left, if he wanted to return to the lair, he had to carry out an all-out attack. The war has been completely reversed.

And just when he was about to fight with all his strength and retreat to the left, on the city head of the left, the banner of Zhongshan was cut down, and the Zhaozi flag fluttered high.

Sima Li weakly threw away the drumstick in his hand and lamented, "I have failed." ”
