Chapter 4 Section 60 Confrontation

"Catapult." Tian Chou will not solve the current problem in three words.

Who said that siege catapults can't be used to smash people, using the stone bullets rolled by catapults to hammer these huge, immobile shields. With just a gap, the Thunderrider can charge through the gap, and then use the infantry to force forward to collect the remaining shields. The archers behind the shield, without melee weapons, lost the shield cover, and only suffered the fate of slaughter.

"Yes, with such a big shield on his back, how do I think he can fight?" Gao Shun echoed appreciatively.

The military horn sounded, the military formation of the Qingzhou soldiers slowly changed, the thunder cavalry moved to the left of the formation, the infantry slowly advanced in the center, and the wolf cavalry ran away from the formation, like a big hook stretched out, and went around the back of the ambush shield array.

"Sound the gong, order the soldiers of the ambush shield array to retreat 20 steps back and shorten the distance from the main formation," Koji Yi understood: Gao Shun wanted to use the wolf cavalry to rigidly embed the ambush shield array and the main formation, and then use the infantry to fight to clear the assault obstacles for the thunder cavalry.

The row of guns and stabs in the Qingzhou spearmen array is chilling, because the left and right of the soldiers are protected by their comrades, many soldiers only practice one move in their lives - stabbing, and have achieved very high achievements, there was a certain martial arts master who ridiculed the Qingzhou spearmen for only one move. However, the actions of one of the spearmen shut him up completely. At that time, the spearman raised his spear and stabbed it, and the barrel of the gun was half a foot into the wood. Just think about it, with such soldiers forming a row of guns, the tide is like a spurt, and it is difficult for the gods and Buddhas to hold out for long.

Once the spearmen are entangled in the array, the collapse of the ambush shield array will only be sooner or later. Because of this, the ambush shield array had to retreat.

The trumpet of the Qingzhou soldiers was sounding, and when they saw the ambush shield waiting to retreat, the wolf rider also began to retreat. The thunder cavalry became a slight advance, the Chinese infantry stood still, split the formation, five catapults slowly moved to the front of the formation, and in the strange squeak, the large stone projectile was placed on the stone throwing arm.

"Put." In the thunderclap, the boulder came across the sky, and where it landed, the shield shattered, the wood chips flew sideways, and the debris splashed everywhere, screaming again and again.

The trumpet sounded again, and the Qingzhou Chinese army continued to advance, and while moving, the catapult continued to fly boulders. Behind the shield, the archers dodged and forgot to return fire.

Ko Yi sighed: "Order, the soldiers of the ambush shield array continue to retreat and retreat into the main formation. The spearmen of this formation stepped forward and placed their repulsive rifles, and the archers prepared to shoot. ”

Before the words fell, a batch of five-colored arrows flew out of the Qingzhou soldiers' camp, which were ruler arrows shot by Qingzhou archers using different elevation angles. Ko Yi observed the location of the five-color arrow landing, and couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, I had heard that Qingzhou's iron arm bow had a long range, and it turned out that the range was twice as long as our wooden bow, and the target of these archers was the Chinese army's main formation.

"Group tortoise shell." Koji Yi shouted repeatedly, and his subordinate soldiers rushed forward, and immediately formed a dense shield wall with the fighting round shield in his hand, the soldiers in the front row squatted, and the soldiers in the back row added shields to the shields, and a shield array like a tortoiseshell densely covered the entire front formation.

The Qingzhou military horn sounded, and the thunder cavalry and the wolf cavalry broke away from the main formation from the left and right, like two open fists, running towards the side of the Koji formation.

"The two cavalry rushed into the distance in order to widen the impact distance and obtain a higher impact potential energy." Seeing this situation, Koji Yi was quite desperate, "If I launch an attack now, how can I stop the onslaught of my 30,000 troops with the strength of a division of his fragile Chinese army?" ”

No, it's not at the last moment, you can't give up on yourself, with my thick formation, once the cavalry breaks into the formation and fights with me, the loss must be very large, can Gao Shun bear this loss? Besides, the number of catapults on the other side was significant, and I only had to hold out for a while, and when he ran out of bullets, I could drag his cavalry into the foot combat with which I was familiar. At that time, it was still unclear who would win and who would lose. ”

"Turtle shell, the sharpest weapon of the cavalry is a powerful impact, if the opponent forms a tight formation, you can use the archers to shoot repeatedly, break up the enemy's dense formation, and then use the assault cavalry to impact the opponent's evacuation formation. Nowadays, Koji Yoshishi has formed a tortoiseshell formation, and the shooting effect of the archers is suppressed. Catapults have limited ammunition, what if they run out of ammunition and can't crack open the shell of the enemy's turtle? Koji Yi is desperate to flee for his life, although I can't break through his formation, is he really willing to hold on to me here? Isn't he afraid of my reinforcements? Gao Shun was also pondering.

"Fire and oil bomb attack", Gao Shun ordered, "I don't believe he is not afraid of fire, such a tight formation, fire bombs will definitely cause great casualties, fire bombs fall into the formation, soldiers will definitely dodge, as long as he changes formation and evacues, he will be slaughtered by me." ”

The overwhelming fire oil bombs continued to pour down on the Koji soldiers, and the balls tied with straw ropes were very light, and some of the grass balls burned on the soldiers' shields. At first, the soldiers could still support, but as the temperature got higher and higher, the flames became more and more unbearable.

With a "boom" explosion, the oil jar contained in the grass ball exploded, the hot oil splashed everywhere, sparks flew up, and the soldiers of Koji couldn't bear it anymore and scattered in all directions.

"It's just the right time." The command vehicle raised the military flag of the wolf horse, and the military horn sounded, urging the wolf horse to attack, Tai Shici took the lead and led 500 horsemen to fly out. The bearer is as sharp as the killing intent of the wind. As the horses galloped, they rushed straight into the enemy's ranks.

It is worthy of the flying cavalry general, the bow is like a full moon, the string is like a thunderbolt, the arrow is like lightning, in the continuous buzzing and trembling of the bowstring, a carving arrow meteor flashed into the koji righteous array, happily harvesting human lives.

What kind of language to use to describe that rain of arrows, it seems that only the sentence "rain hits the bananas" in southern folk music is the most appropriate. In this shot, which pays attention to the density of the attack, many wolf knights have three arrows with one arrow, and the three arrows are off the string, and there is a slight difference between the front and back on the shields of the Koji soldiers, and it is like a fine rain sound when you listen carefully, and when you listen to it, the sound of these thousands of arrows falling to the ground is intertwined into a loud sound, as if it is a sigh of heaven and earth. After the sound, the Koji Yi Shield Array suddenly collapsed.

One bow and three arrows are not the high skills of military generals, but standardized operations. The size of the bowstring produced by the assembly line is standard, the material is uniform, the groove on the tail feather of the arrow is hung on the bowstring, the fingers do not need to pinch the tail feathers at all, just hang the arrow on the string, the fingers control the bowstring, the tension released on the bowstring can eject all the arrows hanging on the string, the three arrows are like flying crows, falling into the enemy formation, painting with blood.

Between breaths, the three pots of arrows were shot out, Tai Shici turned over and returned to the horse, shouting: "Seven kills, strike again." ”

500 wolf riders shouted in unison, and the sound moved for nine days! 500 horses started at the same time, and the momentum was like rolling thunder!

After holding on for a long time, it is very important to hit the cold people's guts. Tai Shi Ci understood this, so he made the first impact and did it with amazing power.

In order to break through the opponent's thick formation, it is necessary to constantly attack the opponent with small forces, exert constant pressure so that the enemy army has no time to care, until the enemy army is crumbling, and then use strong forces to deliver the final blow. This kind of fighting method is obviously the most suitable to adopt the seven-kill rush formation when Liu Bei fought against Yuan Yi. Divide the army into squads of 500 people, take turns to attack the opposing camp like a wave, and finally, gather all the wolf riders who have rushed before to strike the final blow. This kind of charge, which looks grand and powerful, is most popular with cavalry generals such as Tai Shici. At this moment, it is just right to deal with Kojiyi.

The thunder rider moved, and just when Koji Yi was struggling to cope with the wolf rider's running and the formation gradually dispersed, the thunder knights began to hit the ground with the weapons in their hands.

Knock, knock, knock, knock, Tai Shici's wave after wave of impact made people's blood boil, and the thunder knights seemed to feel that the energy of their whole body had nowhere to vent, only to knock on the shield and hammer the earth to cheer for them.

"Thunder", a thunder knight soldier who couldn't bear it shouted the attack slogan - "thunder" hoarsely, 4,000 voices echoed at the same time, and the horses under the seat were also restless and neighing in a low voice.

Gao Shun's spear was raised high, and the trumpeter's eyes were fixed on the spear slowly rising, and the trumpet was slowly brought closer to his mouth.

"Upper armor", Gao Shun shouted violently, and almost at the same time, the trumpeter blew the order to prepare for an attack.

"Long", I couldn't wait for the mine rider to neatly pull down the mask, and the sound of metal made up a huge sound, and the sky trembled.

"Thunder", Gao Shun's spear struck the earth, let out a roar, and slowly flattened vertically.

"Thunder", the Thunder Knight soldier slowly flattened his spear, and the urn responded angrily. The war drums produce rhythmic bass in an orderly manner.

"Slowly, keep in formation", the lieutenant took the lead in urging the horses, and the neat rows of guns moved forward in order.

The sound of war drums alarmed Koji Yoshi: "Are the thunder cavalry ready for a surprise attack, order the troops, disperse, form small formations, and support each other." "This situation and this scene have been defended by the tortoiseshell formation that has not been held by Koji Yi again.

It is worthy of Koji Yi, the soldiers under his subordinates temporarily changed formations at this moment, and they did not collapse.

The biggest blow came, and the wolf rider gathered all the soldiers who had rushed once, and followed the tail of the previous wave of impact, pressing violently, and at the same time, the thunder rider began to trot.

The arrows were like a rainstorm, and the soldiers of Koji were struggling to stay up for time, and at that moment, it was so long that many soldiers did not wait for the end of the arrow rain. However, the surviving soldiers should be thankful for them, glad they didn't see the ensuing scene.

I had just taken a breath when I saw the wolf ride turn away triumphantly, as satisfied as a well-fed wolf. The earth shook suddenly, and the sky turned red, red with blood.

Lei Cai easily broke into the scattered military formation of Kojiyi, Gao Shun took the lead, the spear was sharp, and the enemy formation was split in half! Wherever he passed, stumps rose one after another, and blood rushed straight into the cloud-covered nine heavens, and a red road stretched behind him, but it was soon trampled black by the cavalry that followed.

Lei Qi is like a sharp dagger inserted into the Koji Yi array, and this dagger pierces deeper and deeper, pointing directly at the heart of the Chinese army of Koji Yi. Gao Shun's killing intent was so strong that all the enemy troops at the point of his spear were so frightened that no one dared to slash in front of this heroic general.

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! Shoot him! A hoarse voice shouted among the Koji rebels, if Gao Shun was allowed to break through the formation, then the Koji rebels would soon be scattered by the thunder cavalry. If you can't block the cavalry in a dense formation, you will only be defeated in this flat land. Since no one can resist Gao Shun head-on, then use dark arrows to stop him.

Several cold arrows flew and jumped on Gao Shun's armor, splashing a burst of sparks. Gao Shun moved and twisted on his horse, avoiding the other two arrows, and looked in the direction of the arrow with cold and lightning eyes, and roared angrily: "Pifu, so rude! ”

With a clamp on the horse's belly, the black Izumo horse elephant road black electricity, pounced on the person who released the cold arrow. The soldiers of Koyi who were between Gao Shun and Gao Shun avoided one after another, and Gao Shun's spear was sharp, and the soldiers who shot cold arrows were named one by one, and they fell down like broken trees, and blood flowed all over the ground.

Gao Shun turned his horse again and rushed straight to the voice that gave the order, and that person was Li Yi.

Under the loud "bang" sound, Gao Shun swayed twice on the horse, and Koji Yi was really good kung fu.

The two horses intersected, and after a little hand, Koji Yi found that Gao Shun's arm strength seemed to be inferior to his own, so he immediately poured all his strength into it, and shot back, wanting to pick Gao Shun away.

Killing many soldiers in a row, Gao Shun was a little exhausted, and he underestimated Koji Yi with one shot, and he didn't do his best. At this moment, Gao Shun took a deep breath, slowed down the surging of qi and blood caused by the hard blow at the beginning, mobilized the muscle strength of his whole body, and picked Koji Yi's spear away without showing weakness. This time it was changed, and Koji's whole body was shaken, and even the war horse was shocked and neighed.

Gao Shun twisted his right hand, and the spear stabbed out with a rotating momentum, and the gang qi stirred up by the spear edge formed a powerful air flow at the tip of the spear - "Thunder Nine Days", this was the last sentence that Koji Yi heard. Gao Shun's spear slammed from the bottom up, penetrated through Koji's chin, and picked him up, and the spear was picked at the sunny sky, and Koji Yi struggled twice on the gun like a banner, and then stopped moving.

At this time, the formation of the Koji rebel army was completely chaotic, and the thunder cavalry broke through and stood out in it, as if entering a no-man's land. Seeing that Koji Yi lost his life in just two rounds in Gao Shun's hands, the few soldiers who still wanted to fight also lost their fighting spirit, and they could only stare at Gao Shun with hatred and stare at this victor.

The battle stopped, Gao Shun drove his horse slowly through the army of Koyi, and Koyi's body was gently placed on the ground by him, and he said coldly to the group of soldiers: "Restrain him, he died like a man." ”

The Koji soldiers all bowed their heads in amazement, Gao Shun passed through the ten thousand troops proudly, and the remaining more than 10,000 hostile enemy troops seemed to be completely out of his eyes - this was not that he intended to show his arrogance, but that the morale of the Koyi soldiers was still unstable at the moment, and if they could not be suppressed in momentum, these remnants could still pose a mortal threat to the cavalry that had lost their impact.

By the time Tian Chou arrived with the infantry, all he could do was to collect the prisoners.

Guangping County, Linshui City, only 50 miles away from Yecheng (Hanli), Yan Liangwen Chou retreated to this point, Fang Chang breathed a sigh of relief.

When Liu Bei was about to cross the river, the first thing he asked about was the situation in Yecheng. The two got the news and quickly returned to the army, and at present, according to the report of the exploration horse, the Qingzhou soldiers and horses have not been found under the city of Yecheng. After Yuan Shao received the warning, he was ready to defend. It seems that he came in time and rushed to the front of Liu Bei, as long as the army crosses Baishui, returns to Yecheng, holds the city, and after the war drags on, he will ask the imperial court to persuade him, and he is not afraid that Liu Bei will not retreat.

When Yan Liangwen was proud, a sudden change occurred, and a cavalry horse rank and hoof cloth quietly covered up. At first, the soldiers were confused by the attack, and Yan Wen and the others only regarded it as a small dispute over the crossing of the river, and when they realized that the momentum was not right, a red-clothed and red-armored cavalry had been killed in front of them. A strong man in his 40s led this group of cavalry, covering his head and going straight to the military flag of Yan Wen and the others to kill.

"Who is coming, we are the general of the chariot cavalry, the leader of Jizhou Mu, and the original army of Yuan Gong, the Marquis of Kangxiang?" Yan Liang hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

The man's big sword was raised high, and he slashed towards Yan Liang like a landslide - "General Zhendong, Lingqingzhou Mu, Guanghuan Township Marquis Liu Gong Xuande, Huang Zhong, Huang Hansheng, the captain of the left cavalry of the guards, hey, that man, eat me with a knife." ”
