Chapter 54: Fight and Retreat

Luo Zhaoyun completely integrated into this ancient role, fighting fiercely, gathered a lot of armor soldiers around him, at first I didn't know his depth, at this time I saw that he had a strong ability to kill the enemy, and he was a deputy lieutenant, and suddenly many soldiers moved closer to him, with the backbone, the strength was twisted into one, and the combat effectiveness soared.

"Stab the horse's belly and cut off the horse's legs!" Luo Zhaoyun thought of the scene in the Water Margin where the hook and sickle spear broke the chain of horses, although he didn't know whether it was true or not, but at this moment of the war, he found that the Turkic knights were sitting on horseback, and the weapons were short, and it was difficult to stab the Turkic soldiers, on the contrary, the other party was condescending and really had an advantage.

His assassination technique was specifically aimed at those mounts, and a single shot stabbed a horse in the neck and abdomen, causing the horse to be frightened, swaying from side to side or raising its hooves backwards, and the Turkic knights fell down and were hacked to death by them.

Of course, among the chaotic army, there were also some Turkic knights who rode into the formation, but they were quickly wiped out, and the entire front line, three army formations were put into it, that is, 15,000 people, which was the strength of the vanguard army, and the left and right armies also invested a lot, so that counted, at least more than 30,000 people fought again.

The soldiers and horses on the outskirts of the Turks were so annoyed that they could not break through for a long time, and they took their bows and shots, or rode their horses and jumped over and stepped into the crowd, but they became live targets in the forest of guns.

However, the price paid by the Great Sui soldiers was also very large, and the advantage of this kind of hard resistance was still on the cavalry side.

"Boom! Knock knock! ”

The rhythm of the war drums of the Sui army was changing, the flag was waving, the army slowly retreated, and the military formations that did not participate in the battle began to retreat.

The soldiers on the front line also received the military order, and they set up several formations on the left and right, and set up the glaive formation in front of them, fighting and retreating step by step, not daring to suddenly turn around and run, otherwise they would be directly covered by the iron cavalry and rushed, with countless casualties.

The Turkic iron cavalry has invested 40,000 or 50,000 horses, repeatedly attacking, pressing the Great Sui army to retreat, and want to wear out the 100,000 Sui army alive.

Luo Zhaoyun was surrounded by Guo Xiaoke, Ji Pingwu, Wei Chong and others, all of whom had killed the enemy, and they were also painted on their bodies, all of them were full of joy, and they were not afraid in the face of the Turkic cavalry who were chasing after them.

"Pay attention to your footwork and spacing, and don't bump into your own people!" Luo Zhaoyun stood in the middle of the formation, yelling at the left and right, after a fight, his prestige came up, and hundreds of people around him were talking to each other and listening to his orders.

Because there are a lot of corpses on the ground, as well as blood and mud, if you don't pay attention, someone will fall, and the crowd is prone to stampedes and mess up by yourself, so this kind of fighting and retreating is very particular!

The Turkic army also began to change formations on the periphery, blowing the horn, and the Turkic soldiers who had bitten the Sui army in front heard the horn, and unwillingly dropped their horses to get out of the way on both sides, leaving the open space, and the cavalry behind began to rush up, with the help of a distance of running, regaining the initiative to attack.

"Bang dang!"

Some iron horsemen smashed away the shields and spear arrays and rushed into the Great Sui army to fight, but dozens of people and hundreds of people were quickly submerged and could not change the overall situation.

Only by tearing through the big hole and rushing into tens of thousands of people can the Sui army be completely defeated, but the Turkic cavalry has obviously not done this step.

"Rush again!" The Turkic Yehu and the generals personally came to the scene to command, and ordered the cavalry such as the Tiele Department and the Servant Bone Department to rush forward, regardless of casualties.

"Hulala!"

This time, the impact was too strong, and the Sui army was retreating again, and sure enough, the dense formation was chaotic for a few points, and the torrent-like army behind began to break directly into the enemy camp, dancing steel knives to condescendingly slash.

"Puff puff!"

There was a sound of killing, and countless Great Sui soldiers fell in a pool of blood, but the robes around him didn't have time to come to the rescue, because the enemy's Ge Feng long knife had not stopped, waving and slashing bravely.

"Whew! Swish! As soon as the banner of the Sui army changed, the front army and the soldiers on both wings immediately ran to their positions when they saw this, changing from a dense formation to a sparse formation, and the dense team immediately withdrew to the open space in the middle, and the entire dense large array was evacuated into a small formation of about fifty people, and the shield bearers, Mo sword hands, and spearmen cooperated with each other to encircle and annihilate the Turkic knights.

In such a formation, the cavalry that had broken through into the enemy army had lost its speed advantage, and it was difficult to rush left and right, and when they stopped, they would become the target of slaughter by the foot soldiers.

This is the importance of the big array and teamwork, the instantaneous change, when used properly, produces an incredible effect.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Turkic Yehu and the generals blew their horns again, and the thousands of cavalry who had just fallen into the Sui army's formation and had not yet penetrated into it suddenly turned their horses back and crashed away to intercept them.

The ironclad torrent behind continued to charge, continuously killing, tightly biting the Sui army's position, and began to use a big axe and long knife like peeling skin and deboning, cutting off the outer protective umbrella of the Sui army layer by layer, leaving layers of bright red corpses.

In this way, both sides suffered casualties, from the main battlefield all the way back to stop and stop, fighting continuously, from noon to afternoon, after a few hours, there were countless casualties.

Ci is not in charge of the troops, the plotters are ruthless, and Yang Su and others in the rear have long been accustomed to seeing this bloody scene.

Although there were fierce generals in the middle who asked for help in the battle, they were all refused, but now the situation is unfavorable for the Sui army, and after withdrawing more than two miles, it is found that the whole army has lost more than 20,000 people.

Yang Su said in a deep voice: "It's almost time, Mai Tiecane, Yang Hui, and Chen Liang listen to the order!" ”

"The last general!"

"Lead three thousand heavy iron cavalry, kill from the left flank, sweep away the Turkic cavalry from the outer formation, cut off the pursuit, and after hearing the trumpet, withdraw from the right flank!"

"Order!"

These 3,000 cavalry, even the war horses are equipped with protective gear, the knights are all bright light armor, heavy horse lances and Mo knives, absolute bravery, at this time from the left flank to kill, people like tigers, horses like dragons, hooves like thunder, directly to the Turkic cavalry a heavy blow.

The infantry phalanx of the Sui army began to retreat rapidly, breaking away from the Turkic cavalry bite and getting a little respite.

Luo Zhaoyun couldn't count how many people he had killed, and in the end, he completely relied on instinct to react, because he was in danger at any time, his mental concentration was highly concentrated, his physical strength was very large, and he also had some minor injuries on his body, but he needed this kind of training to grow faster.

These Great Sui soldiers didn't know what strategy the commander used, they only knew to obey the command of the army, let Chong follow one after another, let the retreat quickly retreat, and didn't know how to fight this staff next, seeing the tide of Turkic people and horses in the distance, they were not afraid, but full of anger, because too many comrades in the robe had died.

"The Sui army is invincible and is going to retreat!" The Turkic Yehu and generals were all pleasantly surprised when they saw this scene, thinking that the Sui army finally couldn't resist it, and this was the rhythm of the rout.

"Hurry up and send someone to inform the Khan and the Dongzan Division, and request to send more cavalry up, outflank the Sui army, and make every effort to encircle and annihilate this 100,000 army!"

"Yes!" The Turkic messenger quickly rode to the Khan's camp several miles away, to convey the information back here and ask for reinforcements from the main force.
