Chapter 84: Danger of Danger, Infantry vs. Cavalry

When the two sides were about thirty or forty paces away, the formation of the loyal and righteous army changed slightly, and the ranks of the killers rushed to the front, the rattan player raised a half-human high rattan card to block the way, and the wolf player raised a wolf whisk about two feet long, and stabbed at the cavalry who rushed over.

In addition, some of the squad leaders, captains, spearmen, and palladium boring men of the killer squad fired arrows at the rushing cavalry, while others constantly stepped on the crossbows, loaded the arrows, and aimed at the rushing cavalry.

From ancient times to the present, the bow and crossbow is a sharp weapon for the infantry of the Central Plains to deal with the northern nomads, although the bow and crossbow are physically exhausted, although the accuracy is not high, and the shooting distance is limited, but the shooting speed is several times that of the bird.

Now facing the Tyrant cavalry who was twenty or thirty paces away and did not have much armor on their bodies, they shot arrows and crossbows at close range, and for a while, the arrows rained down, and the Tyrant cavalry who rushed to the front fell a large piece.

In the face of the dense rain of arrows, some riders in the back tightened the reins of their horses, everyone just wanted to eat, why did everyone have any deep hatred and hatred to fight hard?

Some riders who did not know the height of the sky and the height of the earth let the inertia of the war horses rush forward, and at this time, the ranks of the loyal and righteous army killers were already waiting solemnly, and they saw from a distance that the wolf stalks about two feet long were raised in front of the opponent's formation.

The wolf leaned forward, put the wolf on the ground, and faced the rushing war horse, the wolf was surrounded by sharp iron thorns, and after being hung up, it would inevitably open the intestines.

Several unlucky horses were knocked into the wolf's sheath, and there were bursts of wailing sounds, and the startled riders tightened their horses' reins, and the frightened horses neighed.

The wolf slugger slightly blocked the dash of most of the horses, and the few that survived sprinted frantically inside, but in the face of a denser spear, boring palladium.

Seeing the war horse rushing over, the boring palladium hand threw away the bow and crossbow, and brandished the boring palladium to hit the horse's neck, the war horse neighed, and the war horse quickly swung its neck to avoid the blow.

A few of the horses that were hit seemed to be castrated, making a long wailing sound, and some were even beaten to the point that the whole horse fell to the battlefield.

The war horse and the rider on horseback are desperately rushing forward, Yao Huang's rider is not like the elite cavalry, he can ride and shoot on horseback to his heart's content, and his riding skills are good, and he can fight freely on horseback and forth is already good.

Wu Chang, rattan players have rushed up, with a big knife, with a shield to block the momentum of the horse, the experience of the infantry confrontation tells everyone that in the face of the sprinting war horse, any single fight is futile, a combat group is a community of destiny, everyone can only cover each other, in order to ensure each other's safety.

Of course, there are also those who are frightened by the sprint of the war horse and involuntarily retreat, but at this time, the squad leader, the captain's shouts shocked everyone, and the squadron leader waved a bright steel knife to make everyone feel cold.

In the midst of the struggle to advance or retreat, the sound of bird guns next to him sounded again, and at the knight who was blocked from sprinting nearby, four or five bird guns were aimed at each other, shooting at close range, and after a round of shooting, the rider rolled off the horse, inspiring the courage of everyone.

Some people clearly feel the weakness of the Yao Huang knight, the war horse is not only shorter than the Mongolian horse, the riding skills are not perfect, can not shoot arrows on horseback, and the fighting ability is very weak, and there is no Mongolian rider to fight to the death and put the courage to die.

Rushing into the battle with great difficulty, he had to clamp the war horse desperately with both feet, grasping the saddle with one hand, and fighting back and forth with the weapon with the other.

However, the majority of the cavalry were stopped by tiger cannons, bird guns, and crossbows, and the few local tyrant cavalry who rushed into the formation were blocked by wolf stalks about two feet long, or besieged by infantry several times their size.

The two sides collided together, and people were constantly injured, and people were constantly falling off their horses. When Hu Jiusi rode to the battlefield on horseback, the two sides had already fought half a pillar of incense kung fu.

Looking at the war horses that have lost their owners everywhere, watching the riders under them tremble one by one, and some of them are covered in blood and ready to flee, the anger in my heart can be imagined.

Since his debut, he has never encountered such a dangerous scene, and he can't imagine that he is so frustrated in the face of the infantry of the Loyal Army today, and the anger in his heart can be imagined.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he slashed over a fleeing soldier, brandishing a big knife Hu Jiusi was about to rush over, but before he could rush a few steps, the lead around him flew like raindrops, and he was so shocked that he hurriedly put his body on the horse's back, and did not dare to be as crazy as he was at the beginning.

Looking around, on the four or five small hills in front, the loyal and righteous army put the tiger squat cannon on it and let it go.

The surrounding ridges were full of bird-bearers, and they often lined up twenty or thirty bird-bearers, aiming at the riders on horseback at a distance.

At the foot of the mountain, on the mountain road, there were all sorts of killers of the loyal army, one by one wearing armor and under the leadership of the officer, some hiding behind and firing arrows, and some surrounded the riders in groups of three or five, chopping the horse's legs, grabbing the reins of the horses, and stabbing the riders.

The opponent's formation was neat and orderly, and the riders in front were mostly fighting separately, advancing and retreating, although everyone was condescending on horseback and also caused some casualties to the infantry of the Loyal Army, but in terms of casualties, the casualties of their own cavalry were much greater.

Hu Jiusi felt blood dripping from his heart, this is the people and horses he has worked so hard to pull up, relying on these three hundred horsemen to dominate Yao Huang, if he is so easily defeated by the official army, his status will inevitably decline.

In order to preserve his strength, Hu Jiusi shouted and wanted to lead the army to withdraw, but now the artillery is roaring, the gunfire is continuous, the riders in front are caught in the formation, and the riders behind are still desperately charging forward without knowing the situation, and it is even more difficult to withdraw.

And after seeing that Hu Jiusi led his troops to prepare to lead his troops to withdraw, Yang Xuan led the escort battalion to rush over, and fought for a while, until Yuan Tao led the infantry to kill before he threw away Hu Jiusi and rushed to the local riot infantry.

Hu Jiusi finally gathered his troops and horses and withdrew from the formation, seeing that everyone was covered in blood, they all looked depressed, and some of them had not yet woken up from the initial shock.

Counting the casualties, Hu Jiusi was even more shocked, just less than a stick of incense kung fu fighting, the local riot cavalry killed and injured nearly 100 people, which far exceeded Hu Jiusi's psychological limit.

Yang Xuan secretly rejoiced that if he hadn't chosen the hills as the battlefield for the two sides to fight, if he hadn't made extensive use of long-range weapons such as bows, crossbows, and birds, and if it hadn't been for the soldiers who fought bravely to the death and did not retreat, even the three hundred and third-rate cavalry loyal soldiers of the earth tyrants might have suffered a big loss.

But the situation on the battlefield changed instantly, and as soon as he repelled the local riot cavalry, Yuan Tao led thousands of infantry to kill him.

According to Yuan Tao's idea, although the loyal army was quite elite, it would inevitably collapse in the face of the fierce impact of more than 300 cavalry, and he led the infantry to follow and defeat the official army and win the victory on the battlefield.

Now seeing that the official army was quite lightly damaged, and Hu Jiusi's cavalry was even more defeated, so the confidence of the local tyrants who had not yet fought was not so sufficient.

On the one hand, he urged Hu Jiusi to lead his troops to return to fight, urged Liu Weiming, the king of the rebellion, to lead his troops to help, and on the other hand, he led his troops to meet them, although there were more than 7,000 people in the number of local tyrants, but the vast majority of them were homeless people who came by coercion, and there were less than 1,500 people who could really fight.

And after the defeat of the local tyrant cavalry, the morale of the battalions of the loyal army was greatly boosted.
