Chapter 551: Ambush (3)
At this moment, the people have lost their normal behavior, and all kinds of strange shouts of mispronunciation resounded in the crowd, as if they were crazy. I'm afraid that no one standing in front of the galloping iron knights armed to the teeth will be able to maintain their demeanor!
Suddenly a black shadow flew in the sky! It is an iron spear that is accompanied by the charge of the war horse and thrown violently!
"Bang bang...... iron guns have penetrated into the camp one after another! A soldier of the Northern Han Dynasty standing in the back also saw an iron spear flying with his own eyes, and with a loud bang, the iron spear actually crashed through the square shield! Then the armor and bodies of the first platoon of non-commissioned officers were also broken, and bloody spear heads came out from behind. The hearts of those who watched the scene trembled, and the iron spear wore the shield and the human torso together.
"Kill! Kill!" The violent roar was deafening, as if it sounded in the ears.
Between the lightning and flint, a loud "bang" was suddenly heard. Before the soldier behind could react, he saw a huge horse riding heavily in the black and heavy and collided with him nearby! The dense infantry formation, although the iron spear throwing caused some damage to the array, the formation of the Northern Han army was not shaken by the momentum, and the gun formation still maintained a defensive formation.
"Huh!" The neighing of war horses, the heavy crash, the grinding of metal, and even sparks were seen in the dust! The Northern Han soldier stared at him with round eyes, he was not mistaken, the Zhou Jun Iron Cavalry collided directly! At the last moment, the horses that were driven and charged couldn't stop the horses' hooves! A long spear pierced the harness on the horse's body, and the horse seemed to be strung together by several spears, and the loess rising in the air seemed to be dyed red with blood mist.
However, the spear still did not stop the people and horses, and the heavy cavalry splashed with blood exceeded a thousand catties, and finally crashed into the spear array for a distance, and then fell to the ground and dragged forward! The horsemen on horseback fell to the ground and rolled away. Screams rang out in all directions, not the cavalry rushing in! The man was afraid that he would not be able to die any more, because he had been crushed by the armored horses of the infantry.
The spear phalanx of the Northern Han army was difficult to break through by the cavalry, but they rarely saw the heavy cavalry directly charging the phalanx.
In an instant, it was the military general who reacted the fastest, and someone shouted: "Make up for the back!" Pick up the spears, or you'll all die!" ”
The soldiers and soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty here are all elite soldiers who have experienced the battle formation, and of course they understand what happens to the infantry being scattered by heavy cavalry, but ...... The soldier behind him looked at the extra-long spear not far away, his eyes widened, he couldn't walk, he couldn't take two steps forward, only two steps! Who isn't afraid? The soldier felt suffocated and couldn't breathe! His chest was beating a drum, his hands were really shaking, the gun in his hand was shaking like chaff, and even his teeth were "gurgling". He didn't want to do this, but his body was really out of control!
"Long live my emperor!" Suddenly, there was a shout, and another heavy rider in front of him pounced like a small mountain! The Zhou army did not slow down as a whole, and the knight rushed to the front of the formation, either rushing to the spear line, or being rammed by the heavy cavalry of the Zhou army, which had no time to slow down behind.
"Bang...... Rumble...... Yes! ”
The gap in the front line was so great that it was too late to remedy it, and a moment later, the follow-up iron cavalry rushed in. A horse took the lead in breaking in, with a tall head on a big horse, the cloak swinging high, the plate armor under the battle robe lit up in the gray air, the cherry spear in his hand, the diamond-shaped sharp spear head glowed with a cold cold light, and the condescending ironclad cavalry seemed to be like a ghost god running out of the Yama Palace! The roar of horses' hooves made people's hearts tremble.
It was not just one rider who rushed in, but a team of horses in a group. It's just that the speed is too fast, and someone rushes too forward. The first to ride on one side, a shot pierced into the shoulder and neck of a soldier, the sharp weapon rubbed on the armor, and the muffled sound of inserting the flesh was very terrifying. When the cavalry comes, it is a move to look at the face, and no matter who dies, they will pass by.
"Kill!" The roar of rage flew with the blood thrown by the weapon.
The Northern Han soldiers in front of them are the real flesh and blood resisting the iron cavalry at this time! Those who come near may be killed, and those who stand in the way will be trampled by iron horses. The infantry soldiers let out a cry of fear and couldn't help but retreat, at this time people's hairs almost stood on end, who could care about the ranks?!
Finally, a big man skillfully rushed to the front side of the horse, pointed his spear at the horse, and stabbed it! The horse's speed of sprinting killed the knight, and he fell off his horse with a scream as he slammed into the spear, piercing the armor in his abdomen with a spear. Immediately, a horse from behind stepped on, too close to the horse to avoid it, and a horse's paw stepped on the man's body, and suddenly the cry was even more terrifying.
But in this terrifying scene, there were very few people who dared to go up to meet the iron cavalry in the sprint, and this phalanx immediately collapsed! The chaotic infantry faced the cavalry, and the gods could not save it.
The middle forward of the Zhou army hit this infantry phalanx, and it was a hard encounter from the front. Moreover, Shi Yanchao's troops were not even blocked by an attack, they directly penetrated the Northern Han military formation! The chaotic infantry scattered and fled, and there was no other way but to escape.
In the wilderness, there was a mess in front of the center, and a large cloud of dust and mist enveloped the chaotic crowd, as if the neat phalanx had been blown away by a tornado. A large force of cavalry of the Zhou army penetrated straight in, and everywhere they went, the dry loess was trampled by a large number of horses' hooves, as if a fire was spreading to the center! And the dust is like smoke.
Shi Yanchao broke through the elite phalanx at the front, and hitting the deep infantry phalanx was even more like destroying the ancient decay, they were outflanking and sprinting from the two wings of each phalanx, and the infantry who were recruited collapsed as soon as they hit it. The soldiers quickly plunged straight into the middle of the Northern Han Army!
The central formation of the Northern Han Army, which is very deep, is as if the defense is papier-mâché. They were supposed to attack in a half-moon formation, which became a roughly "U" situation, but at this time the cavalry on both flanks had to shrink like the center to save the threat of the Chinese army.
At this time, Shi Yanchao broke through several layers of infantry formations, and his edge gradually weakened, and the lone army could no longer penetrate the front camp of the elite Chinese army; Plus the Northern Han cavalry on both sides contracted and outflanked. Shi Yanchao immediately broke through to the west, because there were Zhang Guanghan's mounted infantry and a mounted infantry of the Tiger Ben Army in front of the front, attacking the middle of the front!
A cavalry of the Northern Han Army on the left flank was the first to arrive from the west and approached Shi Yanchao's troops who were rushing to kill. When the two groups met, they began to fight.
"Lao Tzu asks for a few tricks!" A broad, bearded man shouted with a spear, staring at Shi Yanchao, who was obviously the general of the Zhou army, and led the army to rush over.
Shi Yanchao was covered in blood, not his own blood, it was all someone else's! The plate armor turned dark red, and he didn't say anything, and greeted him with a murderous cold face. The two wings were busy pinning down the cavalry on the opposite side, which often happened in the battle formation, and the opposing general shouted, most of them were to ask the generals to fight alone.
But the generals of the Northern Han Army probably didn't guess that this tall and abnormal general was Shi Yanchao, who was known as the "No. 1 Fierce General of the Great Zhou", and stabbed him with a shot in the face.
Shi Yanchao was still holding a gun in his hand, but it was relatively short, and he slapped the spear when he raised the gun...... Although his spear was relatively short, the barrel of the gun was a thick iron rod, which was very heavy, and easily missed the opponent's spear and stabbing blow; His move was not more than one move, and after a slight delay, the two horses approached, and he easily took the gun and slashed it in the face! The gun also had this trick...... However, Shi Yanchao has a lot of strength, and it is easy for him to use it as he wants.
The spear slashed directly across the big man's face. "Ahh The big man immediately covered his face with his hand, and blood soaked out from between his fingers. Shi Yanchao had already passed by at a very fast speed on horseback, but there was a horse behind him who immediately rushed forward, lifted the long-handled saber, raised his hand flat, and the neck of the knife tip, and when the war horse rushed closer, he made up for it with a knife, and the other party didn't even resist at all. The cavalryman pulled the blade inward, and the big man snorted again, his head drooped, and blood spurted out of his veins, dousing the knight's head and face with blood.
No one in the Northern Han army could stop Shi Yanchao's edge, so that the main force of this cavalry could remain mobile and not be surrounded in one place. Shi Yanchao saw that the dismounted infantry of the Zhou army in the west was attacking, so he led everyone to recharge from the center of the enemy camp.
