Chapter 554: Armageddon (5)
After the attack of the ballista, although the charging formation of the cavalry on both wings of Tubo is a little messy, the level is still maintained well, all of them are arranged in three or three echelons, each cavalry formation is spaced between more than 30 steps, and the two cavalry formations that rush to the front are all miscellaneous soldiers mobilized from the major tribes of Tuyuhun without exception, and the shouting is very loud, but the combat effectiveness is just average, rushing and rushing, the team has a tendency to run apart, compared to the elite cavalry of Tubo who pressed the formation at the end, it is really more than a step worse, It can win in the crowd, but it is also impressive, but seeing tens of thousands of war horses galloping wildly, the smoke and dust are billowing up, and the murderous aura is soaring into the sky, a long horse lance with a handle stands like a forest, and a scimitar flashes the cold light of death in the sun, gathering into an almost unstoppable torrent of steel like waves, and the momentum can be described as extremely compelling!
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Shoot the arrows!"
With the sharp shortening of the distance between the two armies, the sprint speed of the Tubo army's cavalry formation is getting faster and faster, and in an instant, it has rushed to the distance of only sixty steps from the ** large array, ** left wing general Xiao Yuanhe and right wing commander Lu Dayong issued the order to attack almost at the same time, but listening to the sound of the machine spring, the ** crossbowmen who had already been ready shot out the arrows in their hands in unison, tens of thousands of steel arrows and feather arrows pierced the sky like the sky and the sun, and shot into the Tubo vanguard cavalry formation like rain, and in an instant, The miserable howl shook the sky, people turned over on their horses, and nearly one-third of the Tubo vanguard cavalry fell on the road of the charge, and the cavalry array, which originally looked extremely thick, instantly became a sparse sieve, but the remnants of the Tubo cavalry did not stop the pace of the charge, but only made a slight adjustment, and then once again galloped to the ** large array to cover the past.
"Crossbowman, retreat! Mo knife hand, on! ”
was ransacked by ** a random arrow, although the formation was quickly adjusted, the delay was very short, at most only a few breaths, but it was such a number of breaths, for **, but it was the key to defense, almost at the same time as the Tubo vanguard cavalry array was adjusted, Xiao and Lu also issued an order to change the formation at the same time, but seeing the sound of the horn, the three rows of crossbowmen who had finished shooting arrows all retreated to the formation from the gap specially left in the shield knife array, at the same time, The Mo knife fighters, who had been on call for a long time, stepped forward in unison, and skillfully lined up in two rows of alternate standings, thousands of thick/long Mo knives were raised slightly, obliquely straight into the air, and there was no need for any bold words, and the awe-inspiring evil aura had already risen spontaneously!
"Raise your sword!"
Just when the Tubo vanguard cavalry rushed to a distance of less than thirty steps from the ** array, the commanders of the Modao Army on the left and right wings issued an order at the same time, but when they heard the sound of "swish", thousands of Modao knives were raised at the same time, and the long and wide blades reflected the cold light of the people under the reflection of the sun, which was daunting.
The Tubo vanguard cavalry array is full of miscellaneous soldiers of all parts of Tuyuhun, although most of them have never fought with the ** Modao team, but they have not heard the fathers talk about the sharpness and majesty of the Modao team, when Li Ji conquered Tuyuhun, he used the Modao team to kill the Tuyuhun cavalry and lost a loss, when it comes to the ruthlessness of the Modao team, in Tuyuhun a place, it can really cure the children's night crying, at this time, the ** Modao team has lined up to greet each other, and the Tuyuhun cavalry array on the left and right wings are all suffocated, but the distance between the two sides is close at this time, It is absolutely impossible to retract the horse and turn around, and the Tugu Hun soldiers can only rush forward with a hard head, hoping that with the impact of the war horse galloping, they can crush the ** Mo Dao Formation in one fell swoop.
"Enter, chop, turn, ......"
Tugu Hun miscellaneous soldiers are to be strong, ** Mo knife hands will not have the slightest politeness at all, with the commander of a high-pitched command sounded, the front and rear rows of Mo knife hands with knives horizontal and vertical slashing, left and right wipe, such as wheels, blades over, people and horses are broken, countless corpses accompanied by endless blood flying all over the sky, extremely show the power of the Mo knife - Mo knife is extremely difficult to make, a skilled knife maker, every time to make a Mo knife, it takes a month and a half, and the training of Mo knife hand is even more difficult. Not only must you have a strong physique, tenacious endurance, but also need steely nerves, without three years of long-term training, you can't form an army at all, even if there are many brave people, you can really train less than one of the Mo knife hands, with the strength of Anxi, but only have two thousand Mo knife hands, but there are so few two thousand Mo knife hands, just go to the front of the battle, it is the rock, it is the mainstay, no matter how the Tubo vanguard cavalry rushes, can not cross the thunder pool half a step.
Death, or death, as long as those who dare to rush forward, none of them will die, the difference is only the difference between how many pieces the body is broken into, as soon as this tragic situation comes out, the first wave of the remaining Tuyuhun soldiers are all frightened, no one is willing to rush up and die in vain, all of them twisted the horse's head and fled into the oblique thorn, just a hard shock to the face, the first wave of the left and right flanks each 5,000 cavalry killed and wounded nearly half, the rest of the rout, has completely lost its combat effectiveness.
"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! ”
Although the first attack of the Tubo army was completely defeated, it was not waiting for ** to make corresponding adjustments, the second wave of cavalry formations had been killed one after another, and the first wave of vanguard was different from this batch of Tubo cavalry everyone with strong bows, and before they completely rushed to the front of the ** formation, it was already a random arrow towards the Mo knife team that had no time to collect the troops.
"Shield Blade Hand, Up, Array, Array!"
The cavalry used by the Mo knife team to deal with the wild charge is naturally hand-to-hand, but in the face of the cavalry array, it can only become an arrow target, and the Mo knife team that was caught off guard by this random arrow shot by this pass has suffered a big loss, and the number of casualties of only a dozen people suddenly surged to more than two hundred, so anxious that Xiao and Lu were all red-eyed, and shouted wildly to order the shield knife hand to step forward to cover the retreat of the Mo knife hand.
"Out of the knife!"
**Although the shield knife hands are all well-trained, they act quite quickly, but it takes time to set up the formation after all, Fang Zi is in chaos, but he saw several roars in the second wave of the Tubo cavalry array, and all the Tubo cavalry discarded the bow and crossbow in their hands in unison, quickly pulled out the scimitar on his waist, and a horse accelerated and crashed straight into the unstable **shield knife array.
The infantry faced the cavalry in the plains, always the losing side, unless it was a formation to fight, otherwise, even if it was a strong soldier such as the Mo knife team, it was by no means the opponent of the cavalry, at this time the unstable ** shield knife hands encountered is a verification of this difficult truth - Rao is a group of ** shield knife men desperately resisted, fighting, but in front of the galloping cavalry, but it seemed so helpless, only a face of the impact, each more than a thousand officers and soldiers composed of incomplete shield arrays were rushed by the second wave of Tibetan cavalry array, There were many casualties, but fortunately, their sacrifice finally bought a precious opportunity for the adjustment of the Modao team.
"Mo Dao, get up! Enter, cut ......"
The hastily reorganized Modao team didn't care about a little respite, so they lined up again, like a wheel of blades rolling forward, stubbornly blocking the strong burst of the second wave of Tubo's cavalry formation, but because their own shield swordsmen were also mixed in the chaotic army, the Modao team could not help but have some sub-rat bogeys, and no longer had the invincible power before, and could only barely suppress the position, which could withstand the strong burst of the Tubo army.
"Cavalry attack!"
**The left and right wings are facing the same dilemma, that is, although it has barely blocked the second wave of the Tubo army, but the third wave of the most elite Tubo army has also been killed, if the two waves of the Tubo army work together, the entire **formation will be completely torn apart, and this is obviously **unbearable weight, to such a field, the cavalry has to attack, the two generals almost at the same time shouted a voice, each led the cavalry to kill from the flank of the formation, the speed is extremely fast, like thunder, In an instant, it bypassed the front army of the melee group, and stabbed obliquely towards the third group of Tibetan cavalry who were rushing towards the front.
"Turn left, turn left!"
"Follow me, turn right, and kill all the Tang thieves!"
……
The third wave of cavalry led by Xu Long and Quji Mazan has 8,000 men and horses, and the original sprint speed is not too fast, since it has long been preventing the attack of the Tang cavalry.
"Boom ......"
The speed of the four opposing cavalry is extremely fast, but a moment of kung fu will be fiercely collided together, bursting out of a shocking loud noise, one side is better than the crowd, and the other side is better than the soldiers, the two sides will be inextricably killed, the men and horses are staggered, from time to time there are soldiers howling miserably and falling off the horse, the sword is light, the gun shadow is heavy, the arrows are flying, the entire two wings of the battlefield are a pot of porridge, each does not give in, for a time no one can occupy the absolute upper hand, the war side starts fighting, it has reached the white-hot level.
"Father, it's time to put some pressure on **."
Although it was the first time for Gar Yingong to see a big battle of such a scale, he did not have the slightest timidity, but felt that there was a heroic spirit stirring in his heart, of course, excitement was excited, but it did not hinder his ability to detect changes in the battlefield, and when he saw that there were only about 3,000 infantry troops left on both wings and had not yet entered the battlefield, his heart moved, and he already had an idea, so he smiled and suggested to his father.
"Okay, the herald: the left and right flanks of the infantry will immediately press, and the resistance of the Tang thieves must be completely crushed!"
The reason why he is not in a hurry to give an order is just because the time is not yet fully ripe, in his opinion, although it is too early to put the infantry into the attack, but if it is really said, it is not much related to the overall victory or defeat sooner or later, if others propose so, Gar Qinling will not agree, but for the sake of cultivating the prestige of his son in the army, he also agreed to his request......
