Chapter 191: The Strongest Wolf Cavalry vs the Weakest Black Mountain Army
Hedong County.
Governance of Anyi.
Yan Liangqin led 70,000 troops and stormed the city tower.
The Montenegrin army stationed in Anyi City was 100,000 and was led by Li Damu, Lei Gong, and Zuo Zhangba. Although they were caught off guard by Yan Liang, fortunately, they reacted quickly and did not break the city by a sneak attack.
The current 100,000 Montenegrin troops have been stationed in four cities and are ready to defend the city.
"Kill..."
"Storm the city!"
...........
Yan Liang and Gao Ran urged the soldiers under their command to rush to the city tower.
Due to the lack of large siege equipment, the attack was very difficult. The soldiers who rushed past almost had no difficulty climbing to the tower. Every time he was about to climb over the wall, he was stabbed by the enemy's spear and suffered heavy casualties.
Half a quarter of an hour later.
Yan Liang saw a light horse, went out from the West City Gate, and went straight to Banpujin. guessed that the defenders in the city asked Zhang Yan for help. So he ordered the siege troops and suspended the siege.
"General Yan, why don't you fight?" Gao ran over.
"The city of Anyi is strong, and the casualties of the assault are too great. Since the enemy has already asked Zhang Yan for help, why should we let the soldiers die again? and surround Anyi, wait for Zhang Yan to come back, and then set up an ambush to encircle and annihilate. Yan Liang said.
"Okay."
Gao Ran glanced at Yan Liang and said with a smile: "General Yan, I found that you are much more stable than before..." ”
"Is there one?"
"Yes." Gao Ran said: "If it was before, you would definitely give the order and continue to attack the city. until the city of Anyi is brought down. Now it is advancing with retreat and paying attention to strategy, isn't this called stability? ”
The siege forces gradually withdrew.
Yan Liang chuckled softly: "Maybe my identity has changed." In the past, although he was also a general, he had no military power in his hands, so he had no responsibility. Now that the lord has appointed me as a general, commanding 70,000 troops and guarding the borders, how can I not be cautious? ”
"Indeed."
Gao Dian agrees.
With great power comes great responsibility.
...............
...............
After the siege troops withdrew, they were stationed at various key crossings to block the range of ten miles around Anyi City to prevent the enemy soldiers in Anyi City from escaping, or send scouts to report to Zhang Yan.
Now everything is ready, just waiting for Zhang Yan to come back.
Zhangjaw's vanguard battalion and Li Dian's wolf cavalry lined up on a plain.
Six thousand soldiers, waiting solemnly.
The wolf rider and the strengthened war horse all roared secretly, as if they were hungry.
"Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army is just a rabble. If the lord's beast is here, he only needs to roar at them twice to scare them into peeing their pants. Li Dian said disdainfully.
"Although it is a rabble, it is still very difficult to capture them all." He glanced at the surrounding terrain and said, "The terrain here is flat, which is conducive to the galloping of my cavalry. I intend to disperse the assault and charge in a wide area, causing a pressure on the enemy. After that, Zhang Yan was beheaded, and with his head, the Montenegrin army was forced to surrender. ”
"Okay, listen to you." Li Dian responded without hesitation.
For him, the battle was too simple...
The armor of the wolf cavalry and the ferocity of the wild wolves can't even match the elite of Goguryeo, let alone Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army? There is not even armor, and the sword is broken, can it hurt the wolf cavalry?
No matter how you fight, you can definitely win.
Time is ticking by...
After half a column of incense.
Zhang Yan's 100,000 troops unknowingly broke into the battlefield.
"Kill..." The roar ahead shook the sky.
The three thousand vanguard battalions and the three thousand wolf cavalry divided into six ways to attack and rushed towards Zhang Yan's ranks.
Howl howl ...
A wolf howl came.
Zhang Yan looked shocked and stared at the front. I saw a black line in the sky, gradually thickening and strengthening, rolling up the smoke and dust in the sky, like the pressure of the mountains.
"Not good, enemy attack!"
Zhang Yan raised his long knife and roared, "Sons, rush over and kill..." ”
"Kill..."
An army of 100,000 will attack against an unknown enemy.
I have to say that Zhang Yan is very courageous and dares to order an all-out attack without knowing the enemy's situation. What will be the consequences in case of defeat? I'm afraid even Zhang Yan didn't think about it.
Thundered...
Da Da...
The iron hooves rolled, and the shaking ground trembled like a great earthquake. Standing on the ground, people can feel the effect of the earthquake, and then there are wolves and heavy riders who have oppressed them, and they are naturally afraid.
The 100,000 Montenegrin army had only advanced 500 meters, and thousands of people were left behind.
Some stopped.
Some lean to the sides.
Others simply turned around and ran.
The scene was unusually funny.
Zhang Yan couldn't stop it, so she could only try her best to maintain the overall situation and rush forward to kill.
"Shoot the arrows!" Li Dian shouted.
Whoosh...
The soldiers of the Wolf Cavalry bent their bows and arrows and fired three rounds in succession. The arrows flew over and easily killed the soldiers in the front row of the enemy army.
"Javelin throwing!" Jaw Zhang also gave the order to attack.
Sou! Sou!
In the prepared pioneer battalion, each soldier held a javelin in his hand and threw it forward. The power of the javelin is stronger than the arrow, and often even the shield can't resist it, not to mention the soldiers of the Montenegrin army, there are very few shields.
The javelin flew past and was completely unstoppable.
Puff puff...
After a burst of attacks, thousands of enemy soldiers were killed.
"Kill!"
The soldiers of the two armies collided together and engaged in a close-range fight. The force of the wolf cavalry and the vanguard battalion was by no means something that the foot soldiers could resist, and the tall war horses and wolf horses, like bulldozers, easily pushed past. All the Montenegrin soldiers who were hit were injured or killed. Their knives and spears are very difficult to deal damage even if they stab a wolf rider or a heavily armored iron rider.
As soon as the battle began, the outcome was clear.
"Ahh Wolves. The soldiers of the Black Mountain Army who were attacked by the wolf cavalry were frightened by the sharp wolf claws and tall figures, and their defensive lines were repeatedly broken through.
Countless soldiers were frightened and terrified.
Zhang Jaw and Li Dian each led hundreds of cavalry to look for Zhang Yan everywhere.
"General, General, Zhang Yan is there..." A soldier spotted Zhang Yan and reported to Li Dian. Li Dian was overjoyed, and hurriedly led hundreds of wolves to ride and ran over quickly.
"Intercept Zhang Yan quickly!"
Li Dian saw Zhang Yan's big sword, and accelerated the speed of rushing forward.
Da Da...
About 500 wolf riders outflanked from both flanks, and the soldiers along the way did not dare to stop them and fled one after another. made the wolf cavalry easily break through the defense line and intercept Zhang Yan, Zhang Baiqi and others.
"Chief, this..."
Zhang Baiqi hadn't reacted yet.
The dignified army of 100,000 was rushed to the Chinese army by the enemy less than an hour after the battle began.
Zhang Yan also looked horrified, holding the long knife tightly, paying attention to the wolf riders around him.
"Zhang Yan, you can't run, get off the horse and be bound!" Li Dian rushed over, confronted Zhang Yan, and shouted: "As long as you lay down your weapons and make the Black Mountain Army surrender, I can spare your life!" ”
"Don't you think about it!"
"Then I can't blame me..." Li Dian raised the car halberd and stabbed at Zhang Yan: "Look at the move!" ”
