Chapter 55: Victory in Sight

The cavalry and archery skills of the light cavalry of the Tang Army are not bad, which can be seen from the dense arrow feathers.

But the dense feathers did not work very well.

Most of the bows used for cavalry archery are short bows, which have little effect on the solid shield of the shield axeman.

Crackling!

Most of the arrows bounced off the shield like hail on the roof, and only a few unlucky ones did the feathers pass through the gaps in the shield to cause a small amount of damage.

A round of arrows on more than 1,000 horsemen, but there were less than ten casualties.

Clearly, Napman's tactics were extremely effective.

"Next, it's time to retreat!"

Napman whispered, continuing to order his men to move on.

Sure enough, as Napman said, the Don army retreated.

This is also the most common and most used tactical tactics of the archers, far away arrows, once the enemy is approaching, they will immediately retreat, in detail, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy is stationed and I disturb, the enemy is tired and I fight, and the enemy retreats and I chase.

The Tang army archers circled, this time approaching the left side of the Arab right flank, and shot more than a thousand arrows with repeated tactics.

Napman looked at Tang Jun, who didn't know how to repent, and showed a contemptuous expression on his face, which you are still young.

Sure enough, still as he thought, there was a "crackling" sound in the army again.

This time it was even worse than before, with almost no casualties.

Napman narrowed his eyes and read, "After suffering two losses, you should learn to be obedient." Next time, the next time they should shoot closely, and only when they are close can their bows leap past the axes and shield soldiers and shoot at the soldiers in the back row. ”

At that time, as soon as the opponent approached, it was time for the axe-thrower to show his might.

Throw the axe to keep his men in order, and then charge forward with spearmen, by the way, to prevent the local cavalry in the formation.

Thinking of this, Napman re-examined his lineup, convinced that he was ready to face the best, and confidently continued to push forward.

Calm, just like his motto, does not miss the slightest flaw.

The Tang army was once again ineffective, and it seemed that he was not discouraged, and this time he made a detour from the left to the right.

There is a small hill in the distance on the right, and for some unknown reason, the area of the hill is particularly barren, and there is no green at all as far as the eye can see, it is all yellow sand.

The light cavalry of the Tang army swept across the sandy land and stepped on the dust.

"Innocent! The restraint of the troops cannot be compensated for by maneuvering. ”

Napman thought to himself, let the axe and shield men strengthen the guard on the right flank.

Even if it was restraint, he didn't give Tang Jun the slightest chance to take advantage of it.

Under the rolling yellow sand, a cavalry briskly swept across the right flank and approached.

"Just in time!"

When Napman saw that it was exactly as he had thought, he was overjoyed and told the axe-thrower to prepare.

Napman's eyes widened, waiting for the Tang Army to come closer, and a sense of foreboding came to his heart.

The soldiers looming in the yellow sand were not light cavalry on fast horses and quivers, but commandos with spears in an orderly manner.

"Bad ......"

Napman shouted in shock: "Quick, axe-throwers throw iron axes, spearmen, axes and shield-bearers immediately change positions......"

Dense iron axes flew towards the Tang army, and the Tang cavalry instantly stabbed obliquely to the left and right.

The heavy iron axe fell into the air, and it could not hurt the Tang army at all.

When the Tang Army was training, it used arrows as a reference, and when it was practiced to the extreme, the arrows were dodged, not to mention the iron axe?

The power of the iron axe is great, but it is very different from the speed of the arrow.

An Chongzhang regrouped his cavalry formation and rushed straight towards the Arab army's axe and shield soldiers.

An Chongzhang couldn't attack for a long time before, and he knew that the opponent was serious and calm, so he came up with this way to steal the sky.

When the Arabians attracted the attention of the light cavalry of the Tang army, they quietly hid the five hundred Turks in the hills on the right.

Taking advantage of the sand and dust raised by the light cavalry, the Trooper took cover to get closer, leaving the steady opponent unable to deal with it.

Blood splattered, and An Chongzhang moved the big gun, knocking the shield axe soldiers into pieces.

Just like Napman has been talking about the arms of each other.

The heavy shield and axe men had no room to fight back against the upper cavalry.

The axe-throwers in the back also suffered.

The axe-thrower threw his battle axe, and only a saber was used to defend himself, where could he resist the power of the Turrah cavalry?

An Chongzhang wielded a huge spear, coming and going freely among the shield axe soldiers and axe throwers.

After all, Napman was experienced and panicked, and directly gave up the shield axe men and axe throwers, and once again ordered the spearmen to quickly form a spear formation to resist the Tang army and consolidate their own position.

Facing the dense spear array of spearmen, An Chongzhang was obviously intimidated, did not dare to go deeper, and turned around directly.

Before Napman could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the rapid sound of horses' hooves on the left flank like a war drum.

The turquoise cavalry of the Tang Army, which had previously attracted attention, did not take into account the light cavalry of the Upper Tang Army.

The light cavalry of the Don Army had already moved to its left flank!

At this moment, the light cavalry of the Don Army is facing the Arab spear array!

The sound of a bowstring faster than a horse's hooves sounded!

Precise archery swept into the spear array, hundreds of spearmen screamed and fell with their arrows, the chaotic fluctuations expanded, and the right wing of the Arabs collapsed.

An Chongzhang gave Napman a vivid lesson today.

Truly!

The veteran is experienced and calm, and has immeasurable strength on the battlefield, but the rising star also has the advantage of being bold and changeable, and flexible in tactics.

The younger generation looks down on the elders, and the end will inevitably be bloody, but if the elders despise the juniors, they will also receive a bloody lesson.

Napman is a case in point.

"Beautiful!"

The results of the left vanguard of the Tang Army made Pei Da in the rear excited, and even he himself could not have imagined that the first to break the situation would be the left wing army led by An Zhongjing and An Chongzhang's father and son.

It's not that he doesn't know An Chongzhang's talent, but he didn't expect that he could play so well in this crucial battle, and even compare with a veteran.

He did not hesitate to praise and said: "For the use of turquoise cavalry and light cavalry, General An is really good at it. is the so-called father-son soldier who goes into battle, and their father-son cooperation is perfect. ”

Xu Yuan couldn't help but exclaim, this strong general has no weak soldiers in his hands, and it is not false at all.

With this kind of fighter, Pei Yan could not grasp it well, and without hesitation, he sent orders to Li Yide and Guo Wenbin, asking them to support the Left Wing Army and expand the results of the battle.

Cui Xiyi stroked his palms and laughed, and said: "Next, as long as you open the opening from this left flank, the outcome of this battle will be decided!" ”

"It depends on whether the other party has a killer feature!" Feng Changqing also knew that now was the most important time, and the scale of victory and defeat had fallen to the side of the Tang Army.

If there is no killer weapon, the Tang army will win this battle.
