Chapter 624: Attack and Defense

It was almost a hot time for July, especially in the open areas of such a plain. Whether it was Murong Chui's Yan Army or Li Xin's Tang Army, as the sun in the sky got higher and higher, they all felt as if they were tormented in a furnace.

Perhaps out of prudence, after the two armies met, they each shot their positions, but neither immediately launched an attack. It seems that both sides are carefully observing each other's situation and probing each other's details.

In the Yan army's array, Murong Chui had a solemn expression.

"It's better to see than to hear, and when I saw Li Xin's two pro-armies today, I knew that their reputation was worthy! Compared with it, our so-called elite soldiers can't be compared at all! After observing for a while, Murong Trai had to sigh.

Not to mention anything else, just a weapon and armor thing, compared with the two, it is a world of difference. After all, the Yan army itself has a huge number of troops and is expanding too quickly, so these things can't be supplied at all.

And Datang's words, not to mention the unbroken army and the flying dragon rider, are ordinary town troops, and they all have armor. Although compared to the regular army, the battle of the town army may be second-class, but it has also achieved one manpower!

What's more, this is the monarch's pro-army, and everything is used in the best way. In contrast, it naturally brings out the power of the unbroken army and the flying dragon horse.

Another obvious point is that the morale and military appearance of the two armies were quickly revealed under such sunlight.

After the soldiers on his side were exposed to the scorching sun, they soon wilted like frost-beaten autumn leaves, and they all staggered with sad faces. Many people even took off their clothes and stood shirtless against the weapons in their hands.

On the contrary, the Tang army formation on the opposite side was almost immovable, as if these blazing sunlight had no effect on them at all. Between the two sides, it can be said that the judgment is superior.

Of course, this is not because the soldiers of the Tang Army do not feel hot, but because in the past so many years, the Bupo Army and the Flying Dragoon have long been accustomed to this kind of training under the scorching sun.

Therefore, even after wearing armor, the whole person is soaked with sweat, and there is nothing to worry about for them.

"King, the Tang army on the opposite side is in strict formation, and it looks like it will not be easy to capture! How should we deal with it? One of the generals beside Murong asked in a low voice.

Li Xin deployed the cavalry on both flanks, and in the middle were heavily armed. Whether it is his foot soldiers or cavalry, they are all heavily armoured. Therefore, if the other party launches an attack, even if we form a formation to block, I am afraid it will be difficult to block. At this time, I'm afraid there is only one way to take the initiative to attack! After thinking about it, Murong Chui said leisurely.

The power of the heavily armored warrior lies in the fact that its impact is incomparably great. Especially when the whole army is attacking together, the effect is literally like the sky is falling apart.

And for the defenders, in the face of such a direct collision like a train, unless they are also equipped with the same equipment, there is only a dead end.

"If we take the initiative to attack and the other party sticks to the camp, I'm afraid it will be easy!" Some generals wondered.

"The strength of the heavy is that the impact is invincible, and few people can match it. However, its shortcomings are also obvious, that is, it cannot be sustained, and it is inconvenient to move and is very inflexible. Let's take advantage of this, riding heavily with light horses, and heavy footmen with ordinary foot soldiers. Don't kill the enemy first, but find a way to exhaust them and consume their physical strength, and then attack again. When the time comes, it will definitely be able to defeat it in one fell swoop! Murong Chui explained slightly.

"The king's words are reasonable, and the last general will go to give the order!" Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod their heads.

In the Tang army formation opposite, Li Xin sat on a war horse and stood in the middle of the Chinese army.

"We have already laid out all our belongings, and Murong Trai must have seen it clearly. In this case, he can either attack aggressively or only passively defend. But in terms of his cleverness, he should choose a more active attack! Therefore, after the battle began, he ordered Zhang Hao and Deng Qiang to lead the unbroken army to wait for the enemy to attack! After looking at it for a while, he ordered the herald beside him.

The flag was unfurled, and Li Xin's military order was soon transmitted to the front of the army, and Zhang Hao and Deng Qiang immediately began to adjust the deployment slightly, and made every effort to prevent it.

"Order Hong Yi and Qiu Xian, ready to attack at any time!"

"Order Shao Zisong, stick to the rear army, and wait for orders!" One by one, military orders were issued, and some changes immediately began to appear in the entire Tang Army's military formation.

Soon, Murong Chui's side took the lead in attacking. Under the weather at this time, the sun came out of the east, and it was a favorable place for the Yan army in the east. After all, looking towards Yan Jun from the direction of Tang Jun, there was a little trouble in his sight.

This was also one of the other reasons why Murong Chui was in a hurry to attack, because after noon, the sun moved behind the Tang army. At that time, it will be a disadvantage for the soldiers on their side.

"Attack!" With Murong Chui's order, the soldiers of the Yan Army, who had been waiting for a long time, finally began to act.

The infantry of the brigade held shields and killed the Tang army, while the cavalry gradually separated from the two flanks and outflanked the two flanks of the Tang army.

The cavalry was faster, and soon spread out like the wings of a wild goose. The cavalry of the Yan army rushed in front of the flying dragon horseman, and began to shoot arrows continuously at a distance of about 100 meters, performing that provocative act.

And the Wyvern didn't chase it out directly, but just shot it with a bow and crossbow on the spot. Without Li Xin's order, it was impossible for Hong Yi and them to take the initiative to attack.

Compared to the well-equipped Wyvern cavalry, the Yan cavalry was not so lucky, because they had no armor on their bodies, and they could not stop the Tang army's strong bows and crossbows at all.

On the contrary, the ordinary bows and arrows of the Yan soldiers could not penetrate the armor of the Wyvern Knights at all. In this way, Murong Chui's idea was basically facing failure.

The battle on the frontal battlefield was similar, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao led the army to hold on, and waves of arrows rained directly over the Yan soldiers who rushed over. I don't know how many people were shot directly in the process of this charge.

And as the distance between the two sides approached, many of the Yan soldiers finally dodged the arrows and rushed to the front of the Tang army. But at this time, they had to face the fierce Modao offensive of the unbreakable army.

Murong Trai didn't have any solution to this thing. Although he had already heard of the prestige of the Mo Dao, this thing was purely based on strength, unless he used a heavy shield to resist it.

The problem is, how many ordinary soldiers can handle heavy shields! The only way is to fill it with human lives, wait until the physical strength of the unbroken soldiers is exhausted, and kill them with more victories and fewer deaths.

This is Murong Chui's idea, a large number of people may not be able to win, but if the number is small, in the face of Li Xin's two pro-armies, it is absolutely impossible to win. Unless, the Yan army can surpass the unbroken army and the flying dragon rider in all aspects.

Obviously, such a thing is not possible at this time. Otherwise, he Murong Chui would not have been forced to retreat between the soaking water and the soaking water.

As the Yan army arrived, the two armies slowly began to intertwine together. But the feeling is as if one color wants to penetrate strongly into another color, but is blocked by that other color.

At the forefront of the Tang Army's military formation, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao, two unborn fierce generals, were already in battle in person at this time. Both of them are using Mo knives, and it is estimated that there will be no more fierce people than the two of them on the entire battlefield.

And around them, three thousand unbreakable army Mo swordsmen were advancing row by row. Although this speed was not fast, it was very clean and thorough, because after they passed, it was already difficult to see the standing Yan soldiers behind them.

Murong Chui watched the army rush from behind, and next to him was the warlord team with sharp blades in hand. In the face of those who dare to attack without obeying military orders and dare to flee back, they will directly go down with a knife. On the ground, there were already hundreds of corpses lying on them.

Although there were many people separated by them, Murong Trai still sensed that the attack was not going well, especially on the cavalry side.

"Kill with this king!" Half an hour after the start of the battle, Murong Chui ordered.

Behind him, there is the last 5,000 troops, which are the most elite of the 50,000 troops, and they are also the soldiers who have been following Murong Trai in the southern and northern wars. It can be said that this is the team that Murong Chui trusts the most, and it is also his biggest reliance.

As soon as the military order was given, Murong Chui led the 5,000 troops to rush towards the battlefield. But what was different this time was that he was directly targeting the big pole in the rear of the Tang Army, and he knew that the person he was looking for was there.

As long as he can kill all the way to that place and take down Li Xin, the Tang King, whether he is captured alive or killed, then this battle will be completely won. For this reason, even if the 50,000 troops under his command are exhausted, it is a matter of no hesitation.

The five thousand soldiers who charged behind him were like a sharp sword, protecting him in the middle, relying on the armor on his body to resist the attacks of the Tang army around him, and escorting him all the way to Li Xin's direction.

Such a group of soldiers and horses, with such abnormal movements, naturally quickly attracted Li Xin's attention.

"What a Murong Chui, it seems that he is coming straight to this king! Well, I also want to meet you, the person who left a great name in the history books! After seeing it clearly, Li Xin chuckled.
