Northeast of Daying, six o'clock in the unitary hour, the sun hangs in the west.

Guan Ping led more than 3,000 infantry troops of Longxiang's army into Xiahou Shang's main formation, and the 2,000 people under Li Zhen's department on the south side were invaded by the infantry of the 3,000 Yamen Army led by Dong Chong.

Ma Dai Qianqi wanted to detour back to Xiahou Shang from the north bank of Lishui to flank and attack, but the 3,000 Yin and Xiahou Ba 5,000 people who stood further north moved slowly to block Ma Dai's interspersed route.

The 7,000 people of Zhao Yan's department in the southern formation of Kunyang City also slowly moved southward, forming an oblique line with Yin Bureau, Xiahou Ba, and Xiahou Shang, and the formation was like a wall.

On the east flank of Li Zhen was an 8,000-strong infantry phalanx composed of Jianjie general Yan Pu, Zhonglang generals Li Xu and Zhou Wei, who were fighting with the four battalions of Huya Army led by Xie Jing.

The Huya Army and the Longxiang Army had a much higher armor rate than the Wei Army, and the Han Army captured more than 40,000 sets of iron armor and leather armor before and after the Xiangfan Campaign.

There is no problem that the two armies are fully equipped with iron armor, but because each battalion belongs to the flower team formation, and the crossbowmen wear leather armor, only 400 of the more than 700 people in each battalion are high-quality iron armor, and the rest are leather armor.

The width of the battlefield was limited, and under the command of Xie Jing, only two battalions of the Huya Army stepped forward to fight.

In the big camp, on the four-zhang command tower, Pang Lin squinted at the sun that had softened in the west, and estimated the time, and the sun would set in another hour.

In the south, Zhang Bao led a thousand horsemen who had pounced on more than 500 horsemen who bit Niu Jin and threw out, and these more than 500 horsemen met Zhang Bao's assault, trying to hedge for a while and then returned to Xiahou Shang's main formation in the north, while Niu Jin led the main cavalry through Yongdao to the east.

What appeared in front of him was more than a thousand knights galloped out of Cao Xiu's own formation, these knights were scattered in a queue, more than thirty horsemen in a team, and a few in a group of five or six horsemen, who were slowly galloping to the south.

To the south, Changdiao's 5,000-strong army has collapsed, and hundreds of people can be seen fleeing to the east bank of Lishui, and the rest are either mended by Han knights or imprisoned.

Niu Jin waited for a while, Wang Shuang and Dianman arrived one after another, Niu Jin pointed to the south: "I want to rescue the captured officials, are you willing to accompany you?" ”

Wang Shuang lowered his eyes and glanced at the three heads tied to the horse's neck, and said: "Ma Mengqi burned and abandoned Yexian County, and is violently attacking the main formation of the Chinese army, and the last general thinks that he should return to the Chinese army." ”

Niu Jin looked at Dian Man again, and his expression was wooden: "General, today is about to be twilight, if our army goes deep into the south, I am afraid that it will fall into the encirclement of the enemy." ”

Wang Shuang added: "Ma Mengqi is a great general in the world, if he gathers the crowd and retreats, our army will either not pursue, or will pursue with a large army." If the army pursues, the night battle is not conducive to our army; If we don't chase after us, we will become a lonely army. Besides, he is tired of fighting for a long time, and he only has the strength to fight back in his own position, so how can he have the strength to fight again? ”

Most of the surrounding military officials nodded, and Niu Jin only sighed, and the spear in his hand pointed obliquely at the right camp of the Huya Army: "All the soldiers, follow me to break the enemy!" ”

Here in the southeast corner of the camp, Niu Jin, who belonged to Xiahou Shang, rode north, and the knights who belonged to Cao Xiu went south.

Tian Xin led a patchwork of nearly 300 cavalry to the north, and met the scattered knights of Cao Xiu's department.

There was no charge on the wall, and this cavalry army galloping from Cao Xiu's main formation was actually more tired than Tian Xin's department.

Tian Xin's troops rushed twice in a row, except for Mondo, the rest of the war horses were exhausted and couldn't rush.

Charging forcibly, the horse is also likely to die of overwork.

So the two sides fought at normal horse speed on this wilderness, the Wei knights chased Tian Xin, and the Han knights followed Tian Xin to the north.

Even if the knights of the Wei army can suppress the fear in their hearts and attack Tian Xin in a group, the war horses under the seat also have ideas, they know how to be afraid, and they know how to avoid and protect themselves.

Against other cavalry, the horses instinctively slowed down, avoided, and charged at the taller Mondo, and the Wei army's war horses generally exacerbated this negative state.

Fortunately, there is a cavalry establishment that has been inherited from the pre-Qin period...... Ballista.

It's just that the crossbow used for riding is generally weak, and it is difficult to aim when it is bumpy, but it also hits from time to time, and it is inserted into the silk armor outside Tian Xin's armor.

Cao Xiu's cavalry general Zhang Pu led more than 100 horsemen to watch Tian Xin gradually approach, and saw that although Tian Xin was brave, Zhang Bafang Heavenly Halberd could shoot down a knight every time he swung it, but the crossbow arrows and arrows inserted in his body were by no means fake.

Zhang Pu smiled: "Today, I should wait for my contributions!" Change horses, follow me to capture Tian Xiaoxian! ”

More than 100 horsemen replaced war horses, and the halberds and spears at each end were divided into five teams and charged towards Tian Xinbo.

After Tian Xin picked the halberd and stabbed the last Wei cavalry in the attack range in front of him, he saw the elite Wei cavalry charging one after another half a mile away.

Hurriedly stroked Mondo's horsehair with his left hand, lest the fellow charge recklessly.

And he calmly faces the battle, the biggest advantage of cavalry combat is that there are always only two or three enemies on the opposite side at the same time, as long as you are taller than the opponent, the weapon is longer than the opponent, and the reaction speed is faster than the opponent...... Then, your advantage will be absolute.

Zhang Pu was not afraid, and rushed to Tian Xin with a spear and shouted: "Tian Xiaoxian, borrow your head for a purpose!" ”

Tian Xin didn't speak, the Zhang Bafang Heavenly Halberd adjusted its direction slightly, and Zhang Pu himself crashed into Fang Tianhalberd, the halberd blade sank into his chest and ribs, and under inertia, he instantly cut through most of his chest and armor.

Zhang Pu immediately fell from his horse, and the riding spear in his hand also hit the horse armor on Mondo's chest, and as Zhang Pu was unable to let go, the riding spear was bounced away.

In the big camp, Pang Lin could see that Tian Xin rode in front alone, picking off at least more than 30 Wei cavalry, and when the rest of the Wei cavalry rushed to Tian Xin, he staggered to the two wings because of the fear of the horses, and was mostly defeated by the Han cavalry behind Tian Xin, and fled back to the north from the two wings, or swam across the Li River on horseback to the east to leave the battlefield.

The drums in the camp were tight, and as Tian Xin appeared in sight, the officials in the camp and outside the camp were all excited, and high-pitched emotions were spreading.

When Niu Jin, Wang Shuang, and Dian Man rushed to the right camp of Huya, the crossbowmen in the camp were intensively shooting on the flanks, and Niu Jin took the initiative to withdraw after a slight attempt, and returned to Xiahou Shang's main formation after circling the Yanpu formation.

At this time, Ma Chao and Ma Dai came out from between Guan Ping and Dong Chong, flanked Li Zhen's department, and the offensive was fierce and immediately broke the Li clan's Qu array, and Li Jin escorted Li Zhen to evacuate.

When Ma Chao was about to converge with Dong Chong to chase the rout and attack the flank of Xiahou Shang's main formation, he saw Niu Jin's infantry appear on his flank, so he gathered the crowd: "Order Guan Dingguo, a certain family to suppress the formation, and protect him to retreat." ”

I'll flank you, you'll flank me, and it's a bad fight.

Ma Chao pointed again, and Dong Chong immediately led the infantry of the Yamen Army to turn to the east and attack the flank of Yan Pu.

After Yan Pu was killed, Yan Pu killed the Dong family, and now that the enemies meet, Dong Chong's willingness to attack is very strong.

At the end of the day, the sun hung over the outline of the mountains to the west, and the light was already dim.

Tian Xin was covered in blood and appeared in the south of Cao Xiu's main formation, at this time Yan Pu, Li Xu, and Zhou Wei retreated alternately, Ma Chao led the knights to press the formation, and Guan Ping and Dong Chong led the troops to pour into the camp to rest.

As long as the command order is stable, the casualties of the infantry are always acceptable or even negligible.

The battlefield was much quieter, except for the wounded soldiers who were left behind, wailing and crawling north.

Some of the war horses scattered everywhere were collected by the knights of the Han army.

Mondo was out of breath, and Tian Xin took off his armor and saw that there were five grooves in the blood-stained armor.

"Even you can't rush anymore, but the Wei army still has more than 20,000 fresh troops."

As he spoke, he took off the gourd and bit the stopper with his teeth, raised his head and drank the brown sugar water, the golden glow of the setting sun fell on him from the side, and the brown sugar water appeared even redder.

Cao Xiu drove the chariot to the south, followed by more than a thousand infantry, although it was a new force, but these infantry could not step on the drum, and they were a little scattered when marching.

After drinking the sugar water, Tian Xin turned his head to look at the back: "Take the Changdiao battle flag." ”

Tian Ji drove forward, his helmet hung on the harness, his cheeks were oozing blood, and his right hand handed over the Changdiao battle flag, and his voice was pathetic: "Ashin...... Wang Zhi ......"

Tian Xin looked back carefully, and sure enough, he didn't see Wang Zhi's figure, there were more than 100 horsemen left behind him, and many people and horses were injured.

With a long sigh of relief, Tian Xin caught the battle flag, stuck it on the ground, hung his face armor on it, and looked up at the increasingly dark blue sky: "This battle must be fought." ”

Seeing Cao Xiu Rong break away from the infantry and step forward alone, Tian Xin reached out and took out a pair of meteor hammers from behind his waist.

"Get a win."

"Sidearm quality improved."
