The 40,000 Han army cavalry, coming from the south, 500 steps away from the Wei army, stopped advancing.

Liu Bei looked at the boundless Wei army in front of him, and his eyebrows couldn't help but reveal a trace of jealousy.

But he quickly hid his fears, for fear of being seen by his own soldiers, which would affect the morale of the army.

"Meng Qi, the Su thief has finally gone to war, do you have confidence in this battle?" Liu Bei looked at Ma Chao.

Ma Chao looked at the female general beside him and asked, "Yunlu, what about you, Your Majesty, do you have confidence?" ”

"Although there are many Han troops on the other side, in my opinion, they are just chickens and dogs, and Your Majesty does not need to worry." Ma Yunlu's cold face burned with fierce self-confidence, and his tone was arrogant.

Liu Bei was slightly taken aback: "Meng Qi, do you want to let Ling Mei go into battle in this battle?" ”

Ma Chao hurriedly said: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, when it comes to our Ma family's fish scale riding array, the little sister is better at it than the minister, and she will naturally take on the big responsibility in this battle." ”

Liu Bei let out an "oh" and looked at the cold and beautiful face again, but there was a trace of distrust between his eyebrows.

"Why, does Your Majesty look down on us women?" Ma Yunlu glanced at Liu Bei, and there was a questioning meaning in his words.

Ma Chao glared at his sister anxiously, signaling her not to be rude.

Liu Bei hurriedly smiled and said: "Miss Yunlu misunderstood, I know the Ma family, full of talents, although Miss Yunlu is a woman, she must also be excellent in martial arts, of course I believe you." ”

Ma Yunlu snorted lightly, and pointed the gun at Wei Zhen: "Your Majesty, rest assured, today Yunlu took the head of the Su thief for Your Majesty!" ”

Liu Bei's body was shocked, and he gasped, obviously he didn't expect that this young lady of the Ma family would be so fierce and confident.

At this time, Zhao Yun, who was beside Liu Bei, said: "Miss Ma, don't blame me for not reminding you, what you have to face is Su Zhe, who has never tasted defeat in his life, and I hope you must not underestimate the enemy." ”

Ma Yunlu snorted coldly, ignored Zhao Yun's reminder, and glanced at Ma Chao: "Big brother, when do we have to grind, can we attack?" ”

Ma Chao hurriedly looked at Liu Bei and asked for his will.

Liu Bei took a deep breath and said, "It's time to attack, today's battle is a matter of the survival of my Han, and I rely on you." ”

Ma Chao got the order, pulled his horse out, and made a move with a silver spear in his hand: "Little sister, I order you to lead seven thousand fish scale horsemen, attack from the front, and destroy the Wei army for me!" ”

Ma Yunlu got the order, without hesitation, and slapped the horse away like a glow.

Ma Chao then shouted: "Pound listens to orders!" I order you to lead 10,000 light cavalry, detour from the left flank, and be ready to take advantage of the chaos to flank the enemy. ”

"No!" Pound also slapped his horse and walked away.

Then, Ma Chao looked at Yue Ji: "King Jincheng, please lead your 20,000 Xiqiang light cavalry to give me a detour to the right flank of the enemy, what to do, you should understand." ”

"Of course I do!" Yue Ji took the order and rushed away.

Ma Chao finally bowed his hand to Liu Bei: "Please Your Majesty sweep the formation here, and the minister will lead three thousand soldiers to sweep the formation immediately." ”

Liu Bei nodded and signaled Ma Chao to be careful.

Ma Chao immediately slapped the horse up.

In the loud sound of the sky and the earth cracking, the iron cavalry of the four-way Han army swarmed out, took the lead in cracking the formation, and launched an attack on the Wei army.

Watching the cavalry dispatch, Liu Bei's heart also raised his throat, and he shouted: "Beat the drums and cheer for our army!" ”

Tom Tom Tom –

In the Han army, the sound of war drums shook the sky, breaking the silence of the confrontation between the two armies.

Liu Bei looked at the surging cavalry and prayed secretly: "Ancestors and ancestors of the Han Dynasty, I hope that you will be in the spirit of the sky, and you will be blessed to win this battle." ”

Positive direction.

Seven thousand horsemen and iron horsemen, close to each other, formed an impenetrable cavalry phalanx, a huge formation in the middle, two small formations on each side, and five cavalry formations, pushing towards the Wei army.

As soon as the enemy moved, the Wei army immediately saw it clearly.

Thousands of Wei soldiers quickly tightened their hands and prepared to meet the onslaught of the enemy's rushing troops.

In their opinion, the frontal attack of the cavalry must be an accelerated rush, relying on the strong impact force to break through their formation in one fell swoop.

But to the surprise of the Wei soldiers, the Ma family army in front of them did not accelerate the impact, but slowly advanced forward.

And when they saw clearly the appearance of the enemy's cavalry formation, they all gasped and opened their mouths wide in shock.

The cavalry legion, each rider in his hand, held a large silver shield, and even the men and horses were protected behind it, layered and intertwined, like fish scales.

Riding the Shield Array!

The seven thousand horsemen unexpectedly formed a riding shield array.

"It's really the same as what Zhang Xiu said......" Su Zhe secretly sneered, not surprised.

Yan Liang beside him, although he had heard Zhang Xiu say it earlier, he couldn't help but wonder: "This group of Ma family cavalry really fucking formed a shield array, and the cavalry formed a fish scale shield array, Lao Tzu is the first time to see it." ”

The Wei army was all surprised, and in the face of this unexpected shield array, they were a little overwhelmed for a while.

In the head-on direction, the fish scale riding shield array under the command of Ma Yunlu was like five huge silver giant beasts, approaching step by step with the momentum of the sky and the earth cracking.

Soon, the enemy line was within range of the crossbow.

Su Zhe raised his horse whip and shouted: "Crossbowman, let go of the arrows, I want to see how strong the enemy's shield is!" ”

When the order was laid, nearly 10,000 crossbowmen immediately bent their bows and fired arrows towards the enemy.

Woo woo ~ ~

The wind roared through the air, and 10,000 sharp arrows rose into the air, densely like dark clouds covering the sun, roaring towards the enemy.

In the next moment, sharp arrows struck.

With the sound of rain hitting the eaves of the windows, all 10,000 sharp arrows were bounced down, and none of them could penetrate them.

The Wei army was in an uproar.

No one expected that the enemy's silver shield would be so thick that even the strongest strong bow and crossbow of Great Wei could not penetrate it.

The soldiers were amazed, but Su Zhe muttered: "Sure enough, what Zhang Xiu said is right, Ma Chao's shield can be regarded as the hardest shield in the world." ”

Zhang Xiu had previously said that the shield of the Ma family army was three times thicker than the ordinary iron shield, and it was lined with three layers of cowhide.

Such a shield, of course, is indestructible, but it is extremely heavy, and ordinary infantry cannot move it at all.

However, the Ma family legion can use war horses to bear the weight of the silver shield, so that they can move calmly.

Rao is so, the cavalry also needs to have enough strength to be able to carry this shield, and it must need a strong man with strong arms.

The seven thousand knights of the Ma family are all strong men with extraordinary arm strength, and only they can hold such a heavy shield.

Sharp arrows were still raining down, and the enemy's mounted shield array, under the rain of arrows, slowly advanced, getting closer and closer to the Wei array.

At this point, it is clear that the arrows can no longer stop the advance of the enemy, and in the future, most of them can only rely on head-on collisions.

The soldiers of the Wei army clenched their swords and guns in their hands, and their fighting spirit was wild, preparing for a close-quarters fight.

In their opinion, the enemy's silver shield, although strong, gave up the greatest advantage of cavalry speed, and such a slow advance was tantamount to using cavalry as infantry.

When the time comes, the two armies will collide, and the enemy army will only have 7,000 people, and it will not be able to kill more than 100,000 Wei troops.

In a moment, the enemy army has advanced to forty paces!

At such a close distance, the crossbowmen in the back row could no longer hit by firing from their backs, so they had to stop firing their arrows.

At this time, Ma Yunlu, who was hiding in the shield riding array, raised his thin lips obliquely, swept a sneer, and suddenly shouted: "Javelinman, launch!" ”

The horn sounded, and the impermeable mounted shield array suddenly cracked the formation, and in the gaps one by one, more than a thousand enemy horsemen with javelins roared out and rushed towards the Wei army.

Su Zhe's brows condensed slightly, and a hint of expectation flashed in his eyes.

The spear and shield men of the Wei army in the front row decisively raised the big shield, handed the halberd out of the gap, and formed a blade forest shield wall, ready to meet the impact of the enemy.

After all, the enemy army is cavalry, and it is useless to rely on a large shield alone, and it is necessary to rely on cavalry to launch an attack.

The Wei army's spear and shield men were full of confidence, they did not believe at all that a thousand enemy horsemen would be able to break through their formation.

The enemy army rushed like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it rushed in, and the collision was close in front of you.

Suddenly, the oncoming enemy riders suddenly changed direction, almost brushing them in front of their faces.

Almost at the same time, he took advantage of the momentum of the war horse to throw the javelin in his hand fiercely.

Click!

The tearing sound sounded, and the sharp javelin was thrown out at such a close distance, and the piercing force was so strong that it directly pierced the Wei soldiers with shields and pierced them directly.

Blood mist flew everywhere, screams began, and in an instant, more than a thousand Wei troops were pierced by javelins.

Even, nearly 100 javelins, without reducing their penetrating power, actually penetrated two Wei pawns in succession.

The Wei army was shocked and changed color!
