Chapter 763: Heavenly Desolate Mountain Blocking Battle (1)
Muhan Ali Kenyan's strategy cannot be wrong, after all, the Great Food Army still has more than 90,000 soldiers and horses, although the logistics baggage has lost most of it before, but no matter what, it is enough to support a few days, as long as you don't take the initiative to attack, so many people and horses gather into a group, even if ** is strong, it may not be able to attack, once the main force arrives, the unlucky ones will have to be the turn of **, of course, the premise is that the Big Food Army can hold it.
Whether you can hold it or not, it doesn't rely on lip service, nor does it depend on the wishful thinking of Muhan Ali Kenyan, it depends on whether you agree or not, obviously, ** did not intend to fulfill the intention of the Great Food Army, although it did not launch a rapid attack, but it never retreated, the two Tang cavalry were unhurriedly wandering back and forth more than two hundred steps away from the Great Food Army, and they did not seem to care about the tense deployment of the Great Food Army, at the same time, the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army who were originally deployed on the small high ground began to move down the mountain, Slowly and methodically, they lined up less than three hundred paces away from the Great Eclipse Army, and they were extremely calm, not caring at all about the possible surprise attack of the Great Eclipse Army.
At the end of the seven o'clock, after a busy toss, the formation of the big food army was finally arranged, but saw that 90,000 horses were divided into nine phalanxes, arranged in a circle, the infantry was in front and the cavalry was behind, and there was a passage for the rotation between the various formations, the whole formation was quite rigorous, quite the elite of the big food army, and the ** two cavalry had returned to the formation early, and the two wings of the cavalry array were discharged, and the army was alone in the double flying formation of the central army, and the two armies were separated by more than 280 steps from each other, and a big war was about to break out.
"Let's get started!"
Liu Ziming has been in the army for many years, and there has been no shortage of battles, but when it comes to commanding an army to conduct a general battle alone, it is the first time, at this time, although his face is tight, but the fanaticism in his eyes unmistakably exposes his excitement.
"Rapid fire, release!"
Although the artillery position was set up just now, the design of Zhuyuan had already been set, and there was no need for test firing, Liu Ziming's order, the artillery commander Su Qingsheng did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly waved his hand and gave an order in a loud voice.
"Boom ......"
Twelve infantry guns and three heavy guns fired in unison, and in the deafening sound of artillery, more than a dozen shells swept through the air at high speed, roaring and smashing into the front of the Great Food Army, and instantly exploded into a black mushroom cloud, and the densely arranged Great Food Army was unlucky, but in the firelight, countless stumps and broken arms flew around, and the sound of miserable howls sounded one after another, and the originally strict formation was instantly chaotic.
"Hahaha...... what a fool, so many meat targets, it's really cool to fight, come again, come again!"
After a round of shooting, the front of the Great Food Army was gnawed out of more than a dozen huge holes, and the chaotic soldiers squeezed wildly, although they had not been defeated backwards, but the formation was basically gone, but Liu Ziming did not plan to take the opportunity to launch a general attack, but laughed and ordered the artillery to continue to speak.
"Boom ......"
**The artillery are all trained for a long time, and the speed of loading shells is extremely fast, and without waiting for the Great Food Army to adjust, another round of salvo unceremoniously greeted the past, and the entire front of the Great Food Army was completely thrown into a panic, no matter how the cavalry supervising the battle team behind him wielded his knife and slashed, he could not stop the rout of the infantry of the front army, **The enemy in front of him was already in a mess.
"Artillery extended fire, cavalry attack!"
As soon as he saw that the fighter had appeared, Liu Ziming was no longer polite, waved his hand, and issued the order for a general attack.
"Woo, woo, woo......"
As soon as the order for the general attack was given, the horn of the ** Central Army Division sounded violently, and the order was transmitted to the cavalry offices on both wings.
"Attack!"
"Follow me, kill the thief, kill the thief, kill the thief!"
As soon as he heard the horn of the Chinese army, Li He on the left wing and Wang Yu on the right almost broke off at the same time, and led his troops to start the charge, but when they saw that there were two angry dragons on the two roads, they rushed out of the formation like a rainbow.
"Order: Mutuso and Huketu will attack immediately and block Tang Qi! The rest of the divisions immediately turned to the front and prepared for defense! ”
Muhan Ali Kenyan's original intention of expelling such an absolute defensive tortoise formation was to use a solid defense to consume the best living force, but he never imagined that his own front army would collapse so quickly, and he was shocked, but he didn't dare to be careless, and he didn't care about rectifying the front army, and shouted and ordered the cavalry on both flanks of the left flank to attack quickly, in order to block the wild impact of the Tang cavalry, and at the same time, he ordered to change the formation and shrink the original circle formation into a phalanx, so as to stabilize the formation when the cavalry of his own side was not supported.
"Send a signal, let General Su lead his troops to attack immediately!"
Although the tactical adjustment ability of the big food army is good, but the huge formation wants to be adjusted in place, but it is not a simple matter, even if the big food army has tried its best, but chaos still inevitably happened, which gave the ** chance to kill a fatal knife, but listening to Lin Chengbin, who was standing on the high ground on the left side of the battlefield, the herald next to him immediately danced two signal flags quickly, and the order reached Su Yan's department, which had been ambushed on the right flank of the battlefield for a long time.
"Follow me, assault, assault!"
Su Yan is also the old man of the Hehuang Army, although he is not very old, only less than thirty, but he has served in the Hehuang Army for more than seven years, since the establishment of the Hehuang Army, he is already a lieutenant colonel, and his martial arts are also quite good, but there are three tiger generals such as Agutai in the army, he has always been difficult to get ahead, until Agutai and others died on the battlefield, Su Yan really began to appear on the stage of the Hexi Army, but in the end the background is relatively thin, and several wars have not been able to get the opportunity to stand alone, The previous battle of the Surhan River Valley, he still stayed in the west of the river, failed to catch up, until after the war, only after the war, he led 5,000 cavalry to Persia to reinforce, but after arriving, the war has been in a stalemate, Su Yan still failed to get the battle, this time the lead is the main force of the assault, it is the first time that Su Yan appeared as a general, he was very excited, this saw the signal flag on the distant hill sent an order to attack, and when he landed, he was so excited that his body couldn't help but tremble lightly, roared, and led his troops to rush out of the ambush. Rushed towards the back of the Great Food Army like a fly.
"The rear army turns back, defend, defend! Bayan, quick, take your people up, block **, hurry! ”
People have habitual thinking, Muhan Ali Kenyan is naturally no exception, although he knows that the main force is not only exposed to the surface of the 15,000 horses, but also knows that there must be another ambush, but he does not think that it will be behind his side, after all, Li He and Wang Yu have already killed from behind, it stands to reason that there should be no more people and horses in the back, of course, just in case, Muhan Ali Kenyan discharged a circular formation at the beginning, in order to be able to hold the Quartet, But I didn't expect that the front army was blown up by two rounds of shelling, and as a last resort, I could only readjust the formation in order to stabilize the defense, and when I found that ** actually killed a large number of cavalry troops from the side and rear, I panicked when I landed, and although the formation had not yet been adjusted in place, I was busy making changes again.
It's messed up, it's all messed up! The most taboo on the battlefield is that the two orders of the commander before and after are diametrically opposed, and what is worse than this is that the two orders are almost connected, there is no doubt that Muhan Ali Kenyan has committed both, and as a result, it goes without saying, the three phalanxes in the rear are all in chaos, some then turn forward, some are busy turning backwards, and there is still a little bit of rigor at all.
"Sons, it's time to fight to the death, the true god is above, show courage, and tell Tang Kou to see my big food Erlang's bravery, kill, kill, kill!"
The battle situation has been extremely unfavorable, Esmir Weah Bayan has to fight hard, even if his department has just been defeated for a while, morale has not yet recovered, but at this time, there is only a fight, nothing else, just because all the departments are now too busy to take care of themselves, only his department is as a reserve and stationed in the Chinese army, still has the ability to maneuver, at this critical moment, Esmir Weah Bayan also had to muster up courage, brandished a scimitar, loudly inspired his soldiers, and then, rushed out of the Chinese army in the first place, Along the road reserved between the formations of all parties, they attacked Su Yan's headquarters.
"The true God is above, the true God is above!"
Although the morale of the defeated army was not high, but as soon as they saw that their main general was so brave, the fighting spirit was also raised, and with the support of religious fanaticism, they roared and launched a charge, and the momentum of the impact of 15,000 iron cavalry was also magnificent, but it was difficult to say that there was any formation to speak of, and some were just wild rampage.
"You don't see the final army of the Han Dynasty, the weak crown is the captive please Changying, you don't see Ban Dingyuan, and the peerless light cavalry urges the battle cloud ......"
Compared with the roaring and shouting of the Great Food Cavalry, the Datang Iron Cavalry obviously has a lot of rules, not only is the formation extremely perfect, but the loud battle song is even louder in the sky, and the rolling iron flow is indomitable, and the momentum is shaking the sky!
"Crossbow!"
The distance of four miles is not too long, under the hedge of the two galloping cavalry armies, it is only half a cup of tea, with the continuous acceleration of the two armies, the distance has soon been shortened to less than 100 steps, and at this time, the officers and soldiers of the Great Food are already raising their scimitars, ready to have a hard-fought cavalry showdown, but Su Yan is not in a hurry, smiled coldly, and shouted the order.
"Whoa......
With a command, the eight thousand iron horsemen took off the chain crossbow hanging from their waists like one person, attached it to the arm holding the reins of the horse, and aimed at the rushing Great Food Cavalry, their fingers clasped tightly on the crossbow machine, ready to give the Great Food Army a big surprise at any time......
