Chapter 649: The Battle of Jinglingdu
It turned out that when he was just now, Zhang Suoyan's strategy was...... When the morale of the Jingzhou soldiers outside the city was low, the Liangzhou army divided its troops into three routes and fought out from the east, north and south gates of Jingling City.
"Soldiers...... Kill all the Jingzhou military rats! ”
However, he said that Dian Wei took the lead, brandished the double iron halberd in his hand, roared angrily, and led 10,000 Vermilion Bird cavalry to rush to the Jingzhou Army sailor army with a thunderous momentum.
The distance from the east gate of Jingling City to the Jingzhou army formation is about more than 300 steps. At first, the speed of Suzaku riding in the formation was not very fast. When he was about a hundred paces away from the enemy's formation, he suddenly ...... Suzaku rode up the speed of the charge.
Suzaku rode like a tiger out of the cage, with lightning speed, straight towards the ...... The Chinese army of the Jingzhou army rushed away.
From the point of view of Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Cai Xun, and the entire Jingzhou army and sailors, the momentum of the Vermilion Bird Cavalry was really unstoppable. From the chief general of the Jingzhou Army to the soldiers of the Jingzhou Army, how have you ever seen such a fierce and terrifying iron horse?
In just an instant, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Cai Xun, and the sailors of the Jingzhou Army were already shocked by the iron cavalry of the Liangzhou Army. The general is the soul of an army, and the main general is already timid, not to mention an ordinary Jingzhou army sailor.
Seeing that the iron cavalry of the Liangzhou army was like a rolling torrent, rushing to kill, and the military formation on their side was getting closer and closer, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Cai Xun became more and more frightened and panicked in their hearts; Subconsciously, the sailors and soldiers of the Jingzhou Army began to retreat backwards, and their morale and fighting spirit had long been suppressed by the momentum of the Liangzhou Army's iron cavalry.
In an instant, the Vermilion Bird Cavalry had already rushed to fifty steps in front of the Jingzhou army formation. As before, the soldiers of Suzaku began to throw the javelins in their hands.
From fifty paces to thirty paces, Suzaku rode two rounds of javelins and threw them. It was only five or six breaths of time, and the Vermilion Bird Cavalry had not yet rushed to the Jingzhou army's military formation, and the sailors of the Jingzhou army had already fallen in large numbers. Those Jingzhou soldiers who were thrown by the javelins were either dead or disabled, and they had already lost their combat effectiveness.
After the two rounds of javelins of the Suzaku cavalry were thrown, the central army formation of the Jingzhou army was already in disarray, and the forward defense line of its army had already collapsed on the whole line. At this time, the Suzaku cavalry began to charge into battle.
After another seven or eight breaths, Suzaku rode into the Jingzhou army formation as if he had entered a no-man's land. The Suzaku cavalry soldiers, who borrowed horsepower and held horse lances, rushed to the ground as soon as they encountered the Jingzhou army formation.
Where the Vermilion Bird rode the arrow array, there was no longer a living soul and no grass, and the stumps and broken arms of the Jingzhou soldiers were left behind, and the flesh and blood of the land were blurred, and the whole land was stained red by the blood of the Jingzhou soldiers.
Although the speed of the Suzaku Cavalry was delayed by the Jingzhou Army's formation, it only slowed down a little. Such a slight delay did not curb the lethality of the Liangzhou Army's iron cavalry.
The Suzaku cavalry soldiers, holding the horse lance in their hands, without the slightest pity and sympathy, were meticulously killing the Jingzhou army sailors.
After dozens of breaths, Suzaku rode through the enemy's formation, began to turn the horse's head, and launched a new round of rushing attacks.
The 18,000 infantry of the Tiger Wing Legion behind the Suzaku cavalry, under the leadership of Gao Xiang, Huang Xu, and Gan, also easily rushed into the enemy formation.
The infantry of the Tiger Wing Legion couldn't help but say that no matter whether the Jingzhou army sailors would choose to surrender or not, they all waved the big knives and spears in their hands, and cut down when they met people, and they killed the Jingzhou army sailors who cried wolves and howled and fled in all directions.
In the eyes of the iron cavalry of the Liangzhou Army and the infantry of the Tiger Wing Legion...... The sailors of the Jingzhou army, not to mention the lambs to be slaughtered, are like local dogs and chickens, allowing the soldiers of the Liangzhou army to be killed by surprise.
At this time, when Dian Wei led the Suzaku cavalry soldiers, he rushed forward to kill the army formation of the Jingzhou army. The elite cavalry of the Tiger Wing Legion, which came out of the south and north gates of Jingling City, under the leadership of Zhang, Fu Yan, and Zhao Feng, rushed straight into the two flanks of the Jingzhou Army formation.
Almost at the same time, the Vermilion Bird Cavalry and the Tiger Wing Legion's elite cavalry both raided into the Jingzhou Army's military formation. At this time, the Jingzhou Army's military array, the middle army and the two wing fronts, were all divided by the Liangzhou Army.
Defeat is like a mountain!
is just a face, the sailors of the Jingzhou Army have already been rushed and killed by the Liangzhou Army, and the formation of its army has also been scattered by the Liangzhou Army. The Jingzhou army had an embarrassing situation in which the generals did not know the soldiers, and the soldiers did not know the generals. At this time, the sailors of the Jingzhou army only cared about retreating backwards, in the direction of the Jingling ferry, and seemed to have to flee without their lives.
Seeing that the general trend had gone, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Cai Xun couldn't care about the Jingzhou soldiers in the battle array, and rushed to the Jingling ferry like a lost dog. On the way to escape, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, and Cai Xun did not forget to kill those ...... The soldiers of the Jingzhou army who blocked their way.
Cai Mao's intention to escape has long been known to Dian Wei, Zhang, Fu Yi and others. Seeing that, Cai Mao was fleeing to the Jingling Ferry, and Dian Wei immediately handed down the general's order...... Ling Gao Xiang, Huang Xu, and Gan led the infantry of the Tiger Wing Legion to chase and kill the defeated soldiers of the Jingzhou army.
Dian Wei, Zhang, Fu Yan, and Zhao Feng took the Vermilion Bird Cavalry and the Tiger Wing Legion to chase and kill Cai Mao and others.
The iron cavalry of the Liangzhou Army led by Dian Wei and Zhang Siren dispersed the defeated troops of the Jingzhou Army and killed Cai Mao and his party directly.
The speed of the war horse of the Liangzhou army is faster than the escape speed of Cai Mao and his party. Not long after, just when Cai Mao and his party were about to flee to the Jingling Ferry, the Liangzhou Army Iron Cavalry also caught up.
Seeing that the iron cavalry of the Liangzhou Army was thirty or fifty steps away behind him, Cai Mao immediately handed down the general's order, forcing Zhang Yun and Cai Xun to take the rest of the soldiers to stop the iron cavalry of the Liangzhou Army.
At the time of life and death, Zhang Yun and Cai Xun, who were greedy for life and afraid of death, how could they obey Cai Mao's orders, and the two of them didn't care that Cai Mao was the governor of land and water, so they immediately pumped their mounts and fled to Jingling Ferry.
Seeing the actions of Zhang Yun and Cai Xun, Cai Mao was so angry that she was angry, and now, it is not the time to care about these things, and running for her life is the most important thing. Cai Mao whipped his mount desperately, and also fled to the Jingling Ferry.
Just when Cai Mao and his party were still dozens of steps away from the Jingling Ferry, the iron cavalry of the Liangzhou Army rushed to the front.
Cai Mao suddenly felt that there was a strong wind behind his head, and before he had time to dodge, he was already waved into two pieces by Dian Wei.
When Zhang Yun wanted to look behind him, all of a sudden, his head appeared on Zhang's spear.
When Cai Xun was running wildly, he suddenly felt lighter. But seeing that, Fu Yan lifted Cai Xun from the horse like a chicken.
Seeing this, the sailors of the Jingzhou army immediately stopped fleeing for their lives, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
