Chapter 583: It's the early morning battle again

The Fan River was in the dry season at this time, and the deepest part of the water in the location where the Thousand Households of the Fan River was established was only waist-deep, and there were only one or two places.

The Liao soldiers who walked slowly on the night road all night were thirsty and tired, thinking that they would see the water source earlier, replenish water and make a fire for cooking, just arrive before dawn, the sun had risen at this time, so many people were coming, how could they not be discovered, besides, the Tanma of Huazhou was hanging the army led by Li Liang from afar.

The Huazhou army that occupied Fanhesuo went to bed earlier than the soldiers in Liaozhen, rested sufficiently, and began to prepare for battle when Li Liang's troops were still twenty miles away.

The general in front of him, who also led the two guards and horses to fight against the Huazhou army, was beaten and scattered, and after returning to Liaozhen, all the officers who could talk to him went to ask about Huazhou's tactics, which is also what the generals must do, and the use of the art of war to know oneself and the other is on this.

The general who gathered the defeated soldiers said: Huazhou's soldiers and horses at the beginning of the horse team and foot soldiers mixed together and rushed violently, those cavalry hands are thick sharpened wooden spears, soldiers with knives and axes and spears followed closely behind, how to engage the battle, the Huazhou army's infantry and cavalry mixed rushed over, with the speed of acceleration, the cavalry began to rush in the front, in a line to charge, thick wooden spears, the cavalry momentum is amazing.

The infantry formation of the Ming army is often unable to resist, as long as there is a retreat, the overall collapse can not be supported, but the opponent's horse team seems to be able to sprint for a short distance, and there are also chases, but obviously the strength of the horses is not good, so although it is broken, it has not become a large-scale casualties.

can still gather more than eighty percent of the soldiers and horses back, hearing these words, the officers, including Li Liang, all thought that they had obtained the method of fighting the Huazhou Army, and they thought that this kind of grass platform team army was at best a fresh move, and it seemed that it would be this charge with a wooden gun.

And those Tielingwei soldiers who fled back also said the same, saying that they were also disrupted by the other party's light cavalry, but the officers of Liaozhen may not know that when those Tielingwei soldiers escaped, they were all warned by the people of Huazhou, what to say and what not to say, if you are wrong, the safety of your family members who stay in Tielingwei cannot be guaranteed, and by the way, the so-called singles will not be allowed to run out.

Now the false information about Huazhou is already flying in the sky, and no one knows what is true and what is false, which is also the credit of the pro-military camp and Sima, which has blurred the military strength and strength of the entire Huazhou.

Seeing that the other party was waiting for him, Li Liang's side also passed down one order after another, and someone found a high place to look at the other party's army, and found that the number of people was more than 5,000 at most.

After Li Liang learned the news, he was judging in his heart that the so-called fact that the opponent's troops were far less than the Liao soldiers seemed to be true, and everyone knew that the side with more people would always have such and such an advantage in a war.

With 8,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, far more than the other party, Li Liang couldn't help but feel confident, thinking that this first merit might really fall into his own hands.

Liu Shisan, who was at the front, watched the formation of the Ming army quickly quiet down after the chaos at the beginning, and set up a formation, and slowly pressed forward. This kind of reaction is also rare, but I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, Liu Shisan found that the battle between him and the Ming army started in the morning, to say that this morning was refreshing, but there were some shortcomings, that is, he slept too little, and he always yawned.

Liu Shisan himself didn't know that his yawning behavior was quite good for the morale of the army, the soldiers and horses of the Huazhou Northern Army and the Ming Army were facing each other, and the soldiers were more or less nervous in their hearts, and even those middle and lower-level officers were in this state, so every time they saw Liu Shisan's appearance of not caring at all, everyone's hearts settled down, and they felt a lot more bottomed.

As soon as the military formation of the Ming army moved, Liu 13 here first instigated the horses, and there were more than 1,000 horse teams behind him, all of which moved with the rumbling, Liu 13 controlled the horse step in front, and the two pro-soldier riders around him held the military flag straight, and the military flag was straight to the sky.

The horse team of the Huazhou Northern Army also maintained a steady speed, and after the horse team marched, the infantry officers at all levels behind gave orders, and the soldiers lined up in a neat formation and slowly followed forward.

Seeing the eyes of the officers at all levels of the Liao soldiers, they all felt confident, isn't this what the officer said about the horse team charging into battle, mixed with foot and horse. After Li Liang's confirmation, according to the plan that had been prepared for a long time, the Ming army's sword and shield men, pikemen, archers and soldiers with firearms all walked towards the front row, these soldiers were all soldiers of generals at all levels, and they were considered strong.

In the face of the impact of the horse team, it can also withstand the chaos, these people marched towards the front under the deployment, but the horse team of the Ming army slowly gathered in the center of the team, as long as it relied on the spears and long-range weapons in front to withstand the first wave of impact in Huazhou, then the horse team could launch a counter-charge.

Because of the adjustment of the halfway, so the march of the Ming army began to slow down, it stands to reason that this is the best time for the Huazhou army to attack, in fact, the archers and pikemen of the Ming army at the very beginning, is in the front of the formation, as long as Huazhou rushes over, you can immediately line up to defend.

But the Huazhou horse team is still advancing unhurriedly, and the Huazhou cavalry beside and behind Liu Shisan are all controlling the horses under their crotches, and these horses have developed the habit of starting to get excited on the battlefield, and they also want to rush over according to the previous battles.

However, the banner around Liu Shisan is the central command of the entire team, and if the banner does not move, if anyone charges in vain, the people around him can behead him immediately.

The ranks of the Huazhou Northern Army were so unhurriedly approaching, accompanied by their march and the same marching drums, this drum was to adjust the pace and rhythm of the infantry, so that the formation remained unchanged, the Ming army gradually stopped moving, but waited in the same place.

Although there were nearly 20,000 people on the battlefield, the noise and noise of the two sides at the beginning became more and more stressful as the two sides gradually approached, and gradually only the pace and drums of the Huazhou Northern Army could be heard, and the distance between the two sides was already close to 400 steps.

According to common sense, if the horse team charges, it should also be launched at this time, otherwise when the horse team charges, it will not be able to achieve the best speed at all, and naturally it will not be able to talk about the effect of the charge, but the horse team of the Huazhou Northern Army is so always moving forward.

Liaozhen General Li Liang's eyes jumped a few times, and the formation under his own hands was already laid out, just to fight against the opponent's horse team charge, spearmen and sword and shield hands were mixed in array, followed by archers and soldiers controlling firearms, but the other party did not rush at all, the distance was already so close, at this time his side could not move, if it moved, the formation was readjusted, and the team would inevitably be in chaos.

If the other party rushes over at this time, it will really not be manageable, Li Liang did not make a sound move, but just ordered his two thousand commanders to go down and let the team do a good job of defending the rear and the two wings, Li Liang wants to see, I am so tightly guarded, see how you attack.

When he was pondering there, he saw the big flag in the hand of the personal soldier beside Liu Shisan swinging left and right three times, and an arrow was shot out.

The other party finally changed, and the Ming army was nervously ready for battle, but the direction of the arrow was not towards themselves, but to the left side. I saw that the horses, which had been slowly advancing, turned in unison and rushed towards the left side of the battlefield on both sides.

When the Ming army saw the Huazhou army from the beginning, they began to prepare to meet the impact of the opponent's horse team, but before the battle, the opponent's horse team left directly, and these people were stunned and a little at a loss.

Li Liang, who had been holding his breath and preparing to fight, couldn't sit still at this time, and shouted loudly there:

"No matter what the other party is, I will win if I don't move!"

He shouted here, and the soldiers around him also shouted "The big formation does not move, the big formation does not move", and the situation of some commotion was finally suppressed, Li Liang sat on the horse and took advantage of the inattention of the people on the side, wiped the sweat on his forehead, at this time the morning breeze was cold, but Li Liang's cold sweat had already come out.

I was secretly glad in my heart that thanks to the preparation of the two wings and the rear in advance, otherwise the cavalry would suddenly turn around, and its formation would be in chaos, but if the other party couldn't use the infantry to rush into battle, it would have come up and sent him to death.

In front of the battle, the general commander of the Ming army issued a call one after another, the archers pierced the arrows in their hands on the ground in front of them, twisted an arrow and put it on the bow, and the soldiers who controlled the firearms hurriedly ignited the charge of the various fire musket rockets in their hands, and the pikemen flattened the spears.

When the distance between the two sides was two hundred steps, it could be seen that the team of the Huazhou Northern Army paused slightly, and the speed was obviously slowed down, but after two hundred steps, the speed returned to normal, and the Ming army was stunned, but no one cared, as for the horse team of the Huazhou Northern Army, it looked far away and circled, and stopped on the left flank of the Ming army's large array, fortunately, the Ming army had stopped its action and had already been prepared on both wings, but it was not panicked, and now everyone is waiting.

The battle is about to begin......
