Chapter 611: Teach Turkic Cavalry Warfare
The Turks have replaced Xianbei and have dominated the steppe for decades.
In the past few decades, although the Turks have lost their former strength, they have always believed that the Turks are only weakened by internal strife, and do not admit that they were defeated by the Central Plains.
They always believed that in the steppe, there was no one to compete with the Turkic cavalry.
The Sui army's former chariot and cavalry battle array can be regarded as something that they can be afraid of, but they have never been afraid of anyone when it comes to riding against riding.
But today.
Aggressive was a somewhat desperate discovery.
It turned out that the cavalry of the Central Plains was so fierce.
Fierce and fierce, fierce.
Three thousand heavily armed cavalry suddenly came out of the bank of the Xiaojin River in the north, and they seemed to jump out of the air, as if they had come out of the ground.
These heavy horses are colorful, with black armor riders, black armor and red tassels, and white iron harriers chained together.
Wooden oxen and flowing horses with black lacquered lance swallowtail flags.
The armor of the men and horses is painted like the tabby riding of a tiger.
They pounced, and the timing was very delicate.
It was just when the arrogance had already forced Luo Shuai to the end, and in front of the water at the confluence of the two rivers behind them, they suddenly came out, and as soon as they came, they hit their back fiercely.
The Turks rarely had heavy cavalry.
There is a heavy cavalry under the command of Shibi Khan, but the number is not more than a thousand, and this is still the strength of the Turks to create this thousand silver wolf heavy cavalry.
And all of this heavy cavalry went south with Shibi.
Under the Dubi, there are only 100 heavy riders.
And this time he was confident that he could defeat Luo Cheng, so he didn't bring these hundred horsemen at all, and they all stayed in Khan City. After all, this hundred horses, he usually uses them as decorations to show off.
The Turks still prefer light horses, especially bow horses, and shooting while riding is what they like.
When they faced Luo Cheng's assault cavalry, they all felt very unaggressive, and they always felt that the other party was a group of vicious wolves that were crazy to bite. And now, three thousand heavily armed cavalry rushed out, which is exactly three thousand tigers.
The heavy horse slammed into the back of the Turk's jaw, and then stabbed it to the end.
People turn on their backs.
The heavy ride is unstoppable and unstoppable.
They have been recuperating for a long time, and the Turks have been fighting fiercely for more than an hour.
The heavy cavalry was originally the most restrained infantry, and the light cavalry would not take too much advantage, after all, the light cavalry was highly mobile, but at this time, the light cavalry broke through the Luo Cheng Sandao army formation and fought with it for a long time, the light cavalry was tired, the speed was no longer there, and then the heavy cavalry suddenly flanked them behind, and the light cavalry could not run.
Especially when they realize that they can't run if they want to.
Because the battlefield was constantly being mobilized by Luo Cheng to roll towards the east, it became narrower and narrower.
Originally, when the war began, the middle of the two rivers was three or four miles wide, and light horses galloped casually. But now they are fighting, and they are constantly being hooked east by Luo Cheng and chased into the bottom of their pockets.
It's only a few hundred paces wide.
A narrow triangle.
When they pursued Luo Cheng forward, they didn't feel dangerous, but now when the heavy cavalry killed from behind, they realized that the terrain of this battlefield was too evil.
The two armies, plus the Turkic prisoners, 70,000 or 80,000 people, were crowded on such a small delta, and they couldn't run away at all.
Light riding mobility is no more.
The heavy cavalry didn't matter.
They just kept pushing forward like bulldozers, slashing and slashing.
Kill from west to east, and then turn around and kill from east to west.
Luo Cheng reined in his horse on the bank of the river and turned his horse's head.
Kan Ling's handsome flag was planted on the ground.
The handsome flag does not move.
Countless Sui riders also turned their horses' heads and stopped running.
The cavalry of the Loyal Army quickly assembled in formation.
The horses were lined up neatly, and the cavalrymen straightened their spears again.
There were heavy cavalry behind to stir up the Turkic cavalry, and Luo Cheng's pressure on them was greatly reduced.
"Brothers, kill back, rush!"
Kan Ling held high the handsome flag and charged reflexively with Luo Cheng, and countless Sui cavalry rushed back to kill.
The Turkic cavalry was immediately caught in a two-sided dilemma, especially the narrow terrain, which made it difficult for them to exploit their numerical superiority.
No matter how many cavalry there are, they are crowded and difficult to mobilize.
And they can't run, in terms of impact, how they are Sui riding opponents.
The white horse Yicong had already hung up all the spears, and they held a full moon scimitar in their left and right hands, and galloped on their horses, dragging the scimitar through.
Luo Shuai led the handsome banner and went straight to the wolf under the banner of the silver wolf.
will be against the general.
Handsome for handsome.
Seeing Luo Cheng, who was handsome and wearing gold armor, he patted the horse over.
Luo Cheng stood up to the battle.
The fight was not counted, and Du Bi was pierced through the shoulder blade by Luo Chengyi, and more than ten silver wolf knights sacrificed their lives to save him, so he could rescue Du Bi from Luo Cheng's horse lance.
They protected the unconscious Dubi and desperately broke out.
The handsome banner was cut down and taken down by Luo Cheng.
The Silver Wolf Banner fell.
The Turks wept and fled in fear.
In the narrow river triangle, the Turks had no intention of fighting again, and they turned around and fled, and fled after defeat, which was accustomed to the Turks for a long time, and once they lost, they fled.
Luo Cheng led the army to chase and kill all the way.
The silver guards escorted Dubi and fled to the city of Khan's court.
But they saw that the gate was closed.
"Hurry up and open the door!"
On the city wall, Kedun appeared.
Behind her, there are several Sui generals, but they are the eldest grandson Wuji, Cheng Yanjin and Xu Shiji.
Before, the eldest grandson Wuji was the scout of the two thousand light cavalry led by Cheng Biting Jin, and the eldest grandson Wuji boldly entered the city, and successfully said that Princess Yicheng opened the city and led them into Khan City.
When the army was defeated over there, they wanted to retreat into the city in defeat, but the Khan City had already been occupied by General Cheng Xu and the second general.
"Isn't Dubi dead?"
Princess Yicheng asked in the city.
Du Bi had woken up at this time, a big hole in his shoulder, hastily stuffed clothes and cloth in it to stop the bleeding, and the pain was terrible, and when he saw that Ke Dun actually led the Sui army into the city, he couldn't help but be furious.
"Yang Fangyi, you dog's ·······" Aggressively scolded.
Princess Yicheng just smiled disdainfully.
"Duh, do you want to say that your father is a dog or your eldest brother is a dog? Or are both of them dogs? ”
Du Bi almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, only to think of this stepmother or sister-in-law, although she is a weak woman, but that mouth is extremely powerful, and she can't please her verbal scolding.
Seeing that the chasing soldiers were coming, he had to say fiercely to the princess, "You wait, sooner or later, one day, Lao Tzu will come back, and I will definitely arrest you at that time, and I must make you tremble under my step." ”
"Dubi, don't be too quick to speak, if you really have this ability, come into the city now, I want to see how you make me want to die and tremble."
The princess said disdainfully.
The eldest grandson Wuji was furious when he listened to it, "Princess, please open the city gate and let me go out of the city to fight him to the death." ”
The princess smiled and said to Wuji, "What an impulsive guy, but we have two thousand people now, and if we open the city, we can't please him, so let him take advantage of it." Anyway, we've already taken their Turkic Khan's royal city! ”
Xu Shiji was also in favor of not going out of the city, originally the two thousand of them came around here, and they really planned to ambush Dubi, but now that they have captured Khan City, it is the most important thing to hold Khan City.
scolded a few words, but finally fled in a panic.
No matter how fierce the Turks are, they also lack the resilience of the Central Plains army, once defeated, they will run in all directions, run away without a trace, although they will soon be able to make a comeback, but it will take a while to gather the troops and horses.
The princess looked at the figure of the panicked escape, and said to Wuji with a smile, "I am now more and more interested in your loyal army commander, I really want to see if this young man in his early twenties has three heads and six arms." ”
