The situation on Li Chunjing's side, Lu Yuzhi, who had already trotted up with the cavalry under his command on the front line, naturally didn't know, after the cavalry trotted up, the momentum was huge, and the smoke and dust rolled up made it difficult for him to observe the dynamics of the rear, let alone the flag!

As the herald blew the trotting horn, the cavalry also controlled the horses to trot, but the overall speed was still not fast, because they had to maintain their formation!

And the officers of the cavalry are constantly urging their cavalry to keep in formation and not to mess around!

When they trotted dozens of meters again, the speed of the war horses had already increased, and at the same time, they were not far from the rear of the Ming army on the front line!

At this time, there was a herald in the rear riding the most elite Mongolian fast horse in the Tang Army, completely ignoring the physical fitness of the horse, desperately twitching the horsewhip, so that the war horse under the crotch burst out and sprinted forward at the fastest speed, he wanted to convey Li Chunjing's order to Lu Yuzhi in time.

Now that the battlefield is chaotic, the flag language can no longer effectively transmit orders, so it can only rely on the heralds to ride horses to deliver orders!

The speed of this herald was extremely fast, and he chased all the way forward, but it was obviously impossible for them to catch up with Lu Yuzhi in a short period of time.

At this time, in the array of the second cavalry battalion, a second lieutenant cavalry officer behind Lu Yuzhi had already seen the Ming infantry phalanx lined up in front of him, although these Ming infantry were not many, but there were more than 300 people.

Naturally, these Ming troops also discovered early that the pseudo-Tang thief army outside the city had a cavalry, but all the generals with a little brain had arranged troops to resist the impact of the enemy cavalry!

This 300-strong Ming infantry was obviously used to prevent the cavalry of the Tang Army from attacking their flanks.

At this time, the second lieutenant officer slightly increased the speed of the horse, and then said to Lu Yuzhi's side: "Battalion commander, the situation is a little wrong, the enemy army in front has a complete formation, if you rush over, I'm afraid it will be ......!" ”

However, Lu Yuzhi turned pale, and then reprimanded: "Our army is about to charge, it is strictly forbidden to shake the formation, and it is even more strictly forbidden to shake the army's heart, retreat!" ”

The second lieutenant cavalry hesitated, but still slowed down the speed of the war horse and retreated behind Lu Yuzhi!

As the commander of a battalion, the highest and only commander of this cavalry battalion, Lu Yuzhi rushed to the front when he charged, and the military regulations stipulated that in the process of cavalry charging, before the final charge, the cavalry queue must not cross the commander!

This is to keep the cavalry in order, and the commander at the front controls the speed of the entire cavalry!

When the second lieutenant officer saw Lu Yuzhi's expression, he naturally didn't dare to continue, slowed down, and followed Lu Yuzhi again.

But at this time, he could clearly see that the more than 300 Ming troops in front of him had completed the transformation of the formation, just waiting for them to rush over, but the worried look on his face was still the same!

At this time, a second lieutenant officer next to him also came over: "Do you also feel that something is wrong?" ”

The young lieutenant immediately said: "The situation is indeed a little wrong, but since the order has been passed down from above, there is naturally a reason to do so!" ”

After saying that, he took a deep breath and said: "Last time, we rushed through more than 1,000 cavalry of the Ming army, but this time it was only 300 infantry, rush up and crush them!" ”

The second lieutenant next to him also nodded after hearing this: "Yes, as long as we rush forward, we will definitely be able to crush them!" ”

At this time, Lu Yuzhi in the front row was still holding his head high, as if he didn't see that the three hundred infantry of the Ming army in front of him were already grinning in a tight phalanx waiting for them to rush over!

He continued to urge the war horse to trot, and when he felt that the distance was already about the same, he raised his saber high and shouted at the same time: "All the army charges!" ”

As he spoke, his saber was already pointing at the enemy infantry phalanx in front of him!

In an instant, the herald sounded a rapid and non-stop trumpet!

The cavalry began to urge the horses to start running!

Just when Lu Yuzhi issued the order for the whole army to charge, although the fast horses ridden by Li Chunjing's heralds in the rear were still galloping, it was already difficult to quickly shorten the distance with the cavalry in front, especially Lu Yuzhi at the front of the cavalry array.

Seeing that more than 100 of his own cavalry had launched a final charge, and still launched a charge towards the phalanx of more than 300 infantry on the enemy's flank, the sergeant's face changed greatly, and he finally couldn't help shouting: "Stop, stop, you are rushing in the wrong direction!" ”

But not to mention that he was still more than a hundred meters away from the cavalry troops in front of him, even if he was within a few meters, I am afraid that no one would be able to hear what he said.

After the war horse runs, the speed is getting faster and faster, and the sound of the horse's hooves is getting louder and louder!

Although it was only a charge of more than a hundred horsemen, its huge momentum was already more than the shouts of thousands of people in front of them when they were fighting!

When the 2nd Cavalry Battalion began to charge at a faster pace, most of the people on the battlefield involuntarily looked to the northwest, where a puff of smoke and dust was rolled up, and the war horses were faintly seen running in the smoke, and the sabers were flashing cold!

Especially when the soldiers of the Ming army saw this scene, they didn't know that this was the cavalry of the puppet Tang thief army!

Because they don't have cavalry to fight!

Most of the soldiers of the Ming army, especially the soldiers of the Chinese army, have been caught in a kind of suicide-like hand-to-hand combat, the Ming soldiers in the back row kept pushing the soldiers in front to step forward, and then the soldiers in the front died one by one under the array of the second infantry regiment!

The spears of the spearmen were already bloody, and the ground was already full of dead and wounded soldiers of the Ming army, there were so many dead and wounded that they were even stacked together, and the soldiers on both sides in the back row were even fighting on the corpses of these Ming army dead and wounded!

If you look at it from the frontal battlefield alone, there is no suspense that the Datang Army will win this battle!

But although they can win, they will have some casualties, because these Ming troops don't know what they are crazy about, and they don't retreat after suffering such heavy casualties, at this time, the casualty ratio of these Ming troops must have exceeded 20 percent, and this casualty figure is an unbearable casualty ratio even if it is placed in an elite modern army.

But the Ming army is still fighting to the death!

In this case, casualties are inevitable on the side of the Datang Army!

Previously, in order to avoid increasing casualties, Li Chunjing wanted to defeat the Ming army in the shortest possible speed, so he sent the second cavalry battalion to charge.

But he would have thought that because of a mistake in the transmission of the order of the flag herald, the 2nd Cavalry Battalion did not charge at the weak rear of the enemy, but instead attacked the west flank, which still had a complete formation!

Later, although he sent a herald to chase Lu Yuzhi on a fast horse, wanting to correct this mistake, it was too late!

And all this in front of him is completely different from his scheduled battle plan!

Such a major mistake should never have happened!

The flag soldier who passed on the wrong order had already been executed on the spot by the gendarmes, and the blood flowed out and soaked the ground, but this still could not change the fact that the 2nd Cavalry Battalion charged towards the tightly formed infantry phalanx!

Seeing that the Second Cavalry Battalion was getting closer and closer to the enemy infantry phalanx, Li Chunjing could only sigh, now all he could pray for was that the Second Infantry Battalion could successfully break through the infantry of the 300 Ming Army in front of him, in this way, although the casualties of the cavalry may be larger, it can still cause the destruction of the enemy array, and cooperate with his own infantry to quickly defeat the enemy.

In the minds of future generations, the cavalry of the Second Cavalry Battalion no longer had the time and energy to deal with it, because at this time, their speed had been increased to the fastest!

The two cavalry phalanxes, one in front and one in the back, were charging at the fastest speed, and unlike the traditional cavalry, the cavalry still maintained a complete queue when they charged!

And this complete queue is also the most feared of modern cavalry!

It's closer, it's closer, when the more than 150 cavalry of the 2nd Cavalry Battalion rushed to the front of the Ming army only seventy or eighty meters away, many cavalrymen with sabers in their hands looked at the tight infantry phalanx in front of them, and they were also a little puzzled!

Because from common sense, these light cavalry should not charge these infantry who still have a complete phalanx!

How could the higher authorities order them to charge these infantry phalanxes, if they rush over, I don't know how many people will be killed or wounded!

The cavalry were still just confused, but most of the Ming infantry in front of them were already frightened!

The timid soldiers in the front row couldn't even hold the spears in their hands, and their legs were still trembling!

Few people were able to watch more than a hundred cavalry rush towards them and still be able to maintain their composure!

No, not even the most elite hoplite phalanx!

Especially the soldiers in the first few rows, when the enemy's cavalry rushed over, most of them were either dead or disabled, even if they had stabbed the galloping horses or knights with the spears in their hands, but they definitely couldn't withstand the huge impact of the war horses when they charged!

Hundreds of pounds of war horses and knights will crash into the array of soldiers like boulders, maybe they have been stabbed to death in the first time, but their bodies will still move forward, and then crash into the array of soldiers!

While the cavalry in the first row suffered heavy casualties, the cavalry in the back row was able to rush in smoothly and then slaughter the infantry!

So when the cavalry and infantry come into contact at the first moment, the front row soldiers on both sides will suffer heavy casualties!

Of course, this is not to say that the cavalry frontal charge infantry phalanx cannot win, but it is a question of cost performance!

The battle between the two armies, even if it is exchanged for one cavalry with ten infantry, it is a sure profit for the infantry, and this is the reason why since ancient times, not many cavalry will take the initiative to attack the infantry phalanx, not that the cavalry can't beat the infantry, but the gains outweigh the losses!

In fact, if the cavalry general is willing to exchange his cavalry for the lives of the enemy infantry, it is completely possible for the cavalry to charge towards the enemy's infantry phalanx!

Now, Lu Yuzhi is leading the cavalry of the second cavalry battalion to charge towards the infantry phalanx of the Ming army, a short distance of tens of meters, for the cavalry in the charge, it is only a few seconds, those Ming troops have not even had time to release arrows, the cavalry in the front row has already hit the infantry phalanx of the Ming army!

All of a sudden, blood flies!
