Volume 1 Chapter 42 Only fast does not break

It must be a big city. Zhu Gaoxu looked south in the army, and the vast plain was endless, and the eye-catching city walls attracted even more attention. He didn't know the exact scale of this city, but the circumference was at least twenty miles!

The city wall is all earthen walls, but Zhu Gaoxu knows that this kind of tamping earthen wall, the cut surface is trapezoidal, the difference between thickness and height is not large, it is very stocky, the thickness is nearly ten meters, and it is almost impossible to penetrate it.

Outside the city, a black phalanx is arranged, and from a distance, it looks like countless shipping containers have been placed. Flags fluttered above the phalanx, dotted with tall wooden carts in between.

In front of the phalanx, some scattered horses were running, and the dust raised looked like fog from a distance, and the old city towers and city walls were also gray, and the world was full of murderous atmosphere.

"Woo......" The horn sounded in the Yan army's large array, and it sounded like some huge monster whimpering.

Zhu Gaoxu's men and horses were on the west side of the army, and when he heard the sound of the trumpet, he summoned the generals to him.

At this moment, the big drums in the Yan army camp were like thunder, and the middle cavalry had rushed out in a column to the front.

"Boom, boom, boom......, boom" The sky sounded like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and when Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look, he saw white smoke billowing from the earthen city wall and in front of the enemy's phalanx. The cavalry column of the Yan army began to spread out on the east and west sides, and after a while, it became lively in the distance, and the crackling firearms, bows and arrows, and shouts of killing echoed in the wind.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at it for a while, then looked left and right, and saw that everyone was coming, so he said, "What are we going to do, I already said it last night." As soon as I went into battle, I led the Quanyong team and 1,000 cavalry to rush to the front.

Zhang Wu's Qianzong Left Battalion, looking at the position of the red flag, followed closely to open the gap.

The right battalion is not on the battlefield for the time being. If the front is critical, the right battalion and thousands of households will judge the urgency by themselves, or listen to the military order to respond.

If the advance of our red flag stops, the left battalion will change direction and cover up to the north; Our department outflanked and broke the formation with Zhang Wuzuo's battalion! Do you understand? ”

The generals clasped their fists and said: "Order!" ”

"Thousands of households, deputy thousands of households, always see the opportunity, expedient!" Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand, patted his horse and shouted, "Let's go!" ”

The iron horsemen with red pennants planted in the north went first, and the Vedas followed in order, and the roar of the horses' hooves became louder and louder. A stream of cavalry made a large detour to the west like a torrent.

The battle of the officers and soldiers was very open, but the width was always limited. Zhu Gaoxu led his crowd to cross the end of the official army from a distance, and then began to break south. According to King Yan's military order yesterday, he wanted to attack the flank of the large array from the west side of the official army.

At this moment, I suddenly saw a group of horsemen in the official camp galloping out one after another, rushing straight to this side!

The enemy used cavalry to cover the infantry camp, and Zhu Gaoxu was mentally prepared for this last night. The captive Liu Ying said that this situation may occur, it depends on where the other party's general puts the cavalry. When Zhu Gaoxu saw the momentum, he shook the reins, kicked with only his right leg, pointed to the east with his arm and shouted: "Wang Bin's department turns left, rush with me!" ”

Zhu Gaoxu turned his head and shouted again: "Separately send orders to the left and right thousand general camps, Zhang Wu is on the left, follow on the left and right, and cover my flanks and two flanks!" ”

"Order!"

So Zhu Gaoxu led the cavalry, and immediately attacked the enemy cavalry head-on, he raised the cherry spear in his hand high, and shouted: "Spear ready, kill!" The army then galloped after him, and the hooves of countless horses alternated rapidly, and the front army gradually entered a state of charge.

The dry soil among the dry grass was violently trampled by the iron hooves, and the dust flew up, and the men and horses seemed to be stepping on the clouds. In the middle of the battle formation, visibility is getting lower and lower.

"Bang bang bang ......" there was a chord sound in the wind. There are only more than twenty steps left between the forwards of the two armies! Zhu Gaoxu's eyes had already seen the movement of the enemy cavalry in the dust crouching on their horses and drawing their bows.

"Oops!" There was a sudden cry of pain from the left, and Yan Jun fell off his horse as soon as he rode off, followed by a neighing howl that cracked his lungs, as if he had been kicked by the war horse behind him.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't turn his head, his eyes widened, and he rushed straight away.

The cavalry approached at the speed of the charge, and in more than 20 steps at most, an official cavalryman wearing a wide-brimmed hat in front of Zhu Gaoxu directly threw his bow and drew his sword at his waist. And then it didn't work, it was too fast! They didn't seem to expect that the Yan army would even save the cavalry and shooting, so they directly accelerated and swooped in front!

"Ahh When the screams sounded in Zhu Gaoxu's ears, the tip of the spear had already pierced out of the back of the enemy soldier!

At this speed, Zhu Gaoxu didn't have a chance to pull out the gun at all, so he let go of his hand and drew the long-handled saber from his back! Even the pumping and splitting, the lightning and flint, and another horse was cut off the horse.

There were screams all around, the sound of metal clanging and clattering was like striking iron, the smell of blood quickly spread, and the dust in the air seemed to be stained with blood and turned into blood mist.

In the blink of an eye, the rider on the right raised his spear and was about to poke Zhu Gaoxu. However, the enemy soldier's muscle reaction was not as fast as Zhu Gaoxu's, and it was fatal after only half a beat. Zhu Gaoxu didn't wait for his spear to stab out, and directly slashed at the man's face with a knife.

Suddenly, Zhu Gaoxu's face became hot, everything he saw in his eyes turned red, and all he could smell in his nose was a disgusting fishy smell. He didn't care about wiping his face, rushed into the formation, and slashed when he saw people. That night, Zhu Gaoxu had already played the experience of riding and fighting, his legs were between the belly of the horse, and he did not stop for a moment, concentrating on hand-to-hand combat. Most of the time, there is only one knife, and Zhu Gaoxu attacks first, and the speed is not very fast, but it is always a little faster than the other party.

The soldiers and soldiers around them, seeing that the prince whose future was tied to them rushed violently, they all sacrificed their lives and fought bloodily. The entire forward of the Yan army was like having their parents killed, fighting to the death with red eyes.

After a short time, the enemy cavalry dodged on both sides and ran wildly.

"Phew!" Zhu Gaoxu spit out a mouthful of blood and wiped his face with his left hand, and his palms were full of blood. He turned his head and saw a group of green flags coming up on the left, and a group of green flags on the right. I suddenly said in my heart: My brother has stabilized the beginning of the game!

In the dust and mist, I faintly saw that many horses and butts were moving away, and the enemy soldiers were defeated.

Zhu Gaoxu relaxed his legs, the war horse jogged forward for a while, and there was a soldier curled up on the ground, his face was full of blood and tears, his eyes were full of horror, and while crying, he was holding a section of intestines on the ground with a trembling hand, and stuffed the intestines into his stomach with the soil dipped in them.

Zhu Gaoxu saw his left eyelid jump, slapped his horse and swung a knife, and with a "bang", he was relieved. Blood splattered into the air and spilled all over the ground.

"The prince is simply the lord of Yama!" Wang Bin's roar came from behind.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't care much, and calmly observed the enemy infantry phalanx in the blurred dust. The two nearest phalanxes were in chaos, and they seemed to want to temporarily turn the phalanx...... But it's easier said than done, and it becomes a chaotic crowd.
