Chapter 228: Sweeping and Crushing (II)

Wen Qin is the best at playing this kind of surprise attack, and the scattered formation of the Wu army in a rush cannot pose any threat to the cavalry at all, so Wen Qin did not rush to attack when the Wu army launched an attack, but waited for the Wu army to rush to the front of the formation before giving the order to attack.

Zhuge Ke's army is basically dominated by Danyang soldiers, and Danyang soldiers are known for their courage and bravery, and their individual combat ability is the first in the world.

However, compared with the advantages, the shortcomings of Danyang soldiers are also equally significant, poor organization, poor discipline, poor teamwork ability, perhaps in the fighting melee, their shortcomings can be made up with advantages, and even can completely cover up the shortcomings.

However, no matter how strong the personal ability is, when dealing with the torrent of iron horses, it is also inadequate.

The scattered formation undoubtedly provided an excellent opportunity for the Wei cavalry to attack, and in the face of this powerful torrent, the fierce Danyang soldiers were also like mayflies, completely swept and crushed, and they didn't even have a chance to fight back.

Even if you run away, you can't escape, no matter how fast you run on two legs, you can't run more than four legs, those Wu soldiers who originally rushed up and dreamed of millions of dollars and hundreds of acres of fertile land, at this time they deeply realized what it means to be desperate, some people stood on the battlefield dumbfounded, some people tried to struggle and resist, and more people chose to escape.

But no one can be spared, wherever the Wei cavalry goes, it is like cutting leeks, leaving no grass, ruthlessly harvesting fresh life, after the iron cavalry crushes, except for the stumps and broken arms in a place The flesh and blood are blurred, there is no sign of life.

The Wu army was still fleeing, but their speed and rhythm were still far behind the Wei cavalry, and the torrent of iron cavalry was still strong, ruthlessly devouring everything in front of them, and everywhere they went, they were invincible.

Tang Shi and Liuzan, who were in the back, were dumbfounded, since Zhuge Ke subdued the Danyang Shanyue people, most of the soldiers under their command were replaced by Danyang soldiers.

After becoming the commander of the Danyang soldiers, Tang Shi and Liuzan had a feeling of superiority, because they led the Danyang soldiers, who dared to compete with them, every minute and second.

But what did they see today?

Those Danyang soldiers who made them usually proud were all slaughtered at the moment, like ants, swept and trampled by others, and they had no power to fight back.

This is completely a one-sided slaughter, those brave and invincible Danyang soldiers have become lambs to be slaughtered, and they have completely subverted their three views.

There is really a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world!

In the past, the Danyang soldiers were known to be invincible in the world, but today there is its nemesis, that is, the Xiaocai Battalion.

The cavalry has a natural advantage against the infantry, and the scattered sand of the Danyang soldiers provides convenience for the attack of the Xiaocai battalion, which can be used to make up for the weakness of the formation with the strong combat power of the individual soldiers, but in the face of the strong impact of the Xiaocai battalion, the bravery of the Danyang soldiers has no use, and they can only watch the Danyang soldiers being crushed and swept away.

"Formation, hurry, formation!" Liuzan was stunned for a long time, and saw the Wei cavalry rushing towards this side, so he woke up and immediately ordered the pikemen to form a defensive formation to resist the attack of the Wei cavalry.

Every time the Wu army fought with the Wei army, they had to suffer the loss of the cavalry, who let them not have a formed cavalry, even if there were war horses, the horses produced by Eastern Wu were short and thin, and the tall and strong Xiliang war horses of the Wei State were not at the same level at all.

The Eastern Wu army is strong, but unfortunately the water army can't go ashore again, as long as the Wei army does not compete with it in the rivers, lakes and seas, the strengths of the Wu army will not be able to give full play.

However, when dealing with the Wei cavalry, the Wu army still has a set of effective means, such as spear formation, chariot interception, although these tricks look old, but they are the most effective means to deal with cavalry.

The formation of spears, the dense array of guns and the baggage carts in an arc can indeed effectively resist the attack of the cavalry, although the mobility is a little poor, but in general, it will not be beaten by others because of the lack of strength to fight back.

However, there are strict requirements for the real spear formation to stand still, and if you want to build a defense line that cannot be broken and defeated, the cooperation among the various arms is the most important, and at this moment, the battle formation formed by the Wu army in a hurry is naturally unable to do this.

What's more, this is in the dark of night, and all kinds of omissions are extremely inevitable, so although the Wu army formed a formation, whether they could stop the cavalry of the Wei army, Tang Shi and Liuzan had no bottom in their hearts.

Wen Qin has a deeper consideration, after all, night combat is different from daytime, the cavalry can gallop indulgently, in the night, there are too many uncertain factors, even if there are many flaws in the battle formation built by the Wu army, it is not easy to find out at this moment.

Even if the spear formation of the Wu army is loose, it is obvious that the cavalry battalion will inevitably pay a lot of price if it breaks through it, and breaking the formation is different from dealing with the guerrillas after all.

So Wen Qin ordered to change the mode of attack, from the rampage to the roundabout attack, but wherever there was no spear formation, the cavalry continued to attack as always, once encountering the opponent's spear formation, they took the initiative to avoid its edge, detoured back to the enemy's flank and rear flank, and attacked from the enemy's weak link.

If it is a well-established pike, its defense must be like an iron barrel, and no matter what angle the cavalry attacks, it will be difficult to break through its defense.

It's a pity that the spear formation that Tang Shi and Liuzan put together temporarily does not have such perfect conditions at all, maybe its front will be stronger, and it can resist the attack of the cavalry, but its flanks and rear flanks are loose, and the cavalry quickly detours back to its flanks and rear flanks, and can easily tear apart the entire defense line of the Wu army.

Tang Shi and Liuzan saw that even the spear array could not withstand the offensive of the Wei cavalry, so they knew that the general trend had gone, and if they continued to fight, they were afraid that there would be a danger of annihilation of the whole army, so the two decided to run away decisively.

Although the glory and wealth looked greedy, no one could enjoy it without life, Tang Shi and Liuzan knew this very well, so seeing that the situation was not good, they simply gave up resistance and were completely defeated.

And the Wu army escaped in all directions, the Wei cavalry wanted to chase, then they had to chase separately, with the number of Wei cavalry, obviously want to eat all the Wu army's men and horses, there is still no chance, they can only choose to chase all the way, and the others will give up for the time being.

As for who escapes and who can't, it's all up to luck.
