"Boom Boom Boom ······" The 10,000 cavalry of the rebel army were dispatched, and the momentum was really majestic, and the ground was full of fierce battles, and the sound of horses' hooves like rolling thunder rushed from the opposite side, the horse's hooves flew, the soil and grass clippings splashed, and the weapons in the hands of the rebels emitted a shining cold light.

In the face of the rebels' fierce 10,000 elite cavalry, the 3,000 archers of the Beiting Army were not afraid at all, and still rushed forward.

Bai Xiaode shot out the bow and arrow in his hand, and roared: "All the soldiers listen to the order, shoot five times in a row, and release the arrow——"

The heralds who followed Bai Xiaode on horseback immediately waved the small flag in their hands and played the flag, and the archers and cavalry soldiers behind saw the signal sent by the herald and opened their bows and arrows, and the arrows shot out one after another, although the horses were galloping, the archers were not affected in any way.

Not to mention the archers, just say that according to the army training methods of the Tang Dynasty, it takes three years to train an infantry to become a skilled infantry archer, this training time is affected by many aspects, the most restricted is arrows and bows, and the arrows and bows used for training cannot be provided indefinitely, plus the soldiers will also be lazy, and it is impossible to practice diligently every day, so it takes three years for a foot archer to grow.

In order to train foot archers and archers, the Beiting military consumes a large number of arrows and bowstrings almost every year, especially for the training of archers, the soldiers urge the soldiers to practice diligently every day, and the soldiers eat and sleep with the horses, so they have been trained for five years to have the scale of 10,000 archers today, this time Zhao Ziliang brought 5,000 archers from the Beiting, what is the combat effectiveness of the archers, Only through actual combat can it be truly tested, and this battle is the best moment to test the combat effectiveness of the archers.

"Whoosh ······" The arrows that flew into the sky fell one after another, and the rebel cavalry who were running at high speed were hit by arrows one after another, some fell to the ground and died, some people fell to the ground and the cavalry behind them trampled into flesh, some people were seriously injured by arrows, and even among the first few rows of ironclad cavalry, many people were seriously injured by arrows that penetrated the ironclad and fell to the ground.

The archers and cavalry officers moved like the wind, and they were extremely agile, and it was as simple and easy as a common thing to draw the bow and shoot arrows, and everyone in the Beiting Army knew that this was the result of years of hard training.

Sun Xiaozhe saw that after his Chinese cavalry rushed out, he was constantly shot by the cavalry of the Tang army rushing over on the opposite side, and a large number of cavalry were killed by arrows, this level of casualties made his heart tremble, and he couldn't help but lose his voice: "How is it possible, how is this possible?" Why is the Beiting Army's cavalry so powerful? This kind of cavalry combat power is inferior to even the most elite barbarian cavalry! ”

Deputy General Yin Ziqi also kept snorting after seeing this scene, he wiped a cold sweat, turned his head to look at Sun Xiaozhe and said: "Dashuai, we only think that Zhao Ziliang has brilliant military achievements, is invincible, and has been famous for a long time, but we forgot that to reach this level, he must be an expert in military training, otherwise how could he not taste defeat for so many years?" You must know that even Cui Qianyou, Tian Chengsi, Ge Shuhan, Feng Changqing, Guo Ziyi, Li Guangbi, An Sishun and other famous generals are his juniors! ”

Sun Xiaozhe gritted his teeth and watched his cavalry continue to fall from arrows, and in just a while, at least 1,500 people were injured or killed, this casualty was too great, and there were such big casualties before the Tang army was in close combat, how could the battle be fought in the future?

On the rear platform of the Tang Army, the generals and colonels were surprised to see that the archers had caused such a large casualty to the cavalry of the rebel army who rushed over, this superb cavalry and archery skills were too powerful, look at the archers on horseback, there was no jerky and awkward feeling at all, they seemed to be integrated with the war horse, but they were able to control the war horse freely, this heroic picture of galloping horses was really beautiful.

"Oh my God, what do I see?" Li Wan, the king of Rong, who was wearing guard armor, was stunned as he watched the archers constantly shooting at the figure of the rebel cavalry, and couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhao Ziliang turned his head and glared at Li Wan quite dissatisfied when he heard this voice, Li Wan was stared at and shrunk his neck, and when Zhao Ziliang turned his head again, he immediately whispered to his attendants: "Quickly bring pen and ink to this king, this king wants to draw this scene, go quickly!" ”

"Uh, yes!" The attendant was stunned, and immediately turned to leave.

At first, Li Wan was so frightened that he trembled because he had never seen such a huge scene on the stage, and he almost peed his pants, but now that he has adapted to it, he has become extremely excited again.

Zhao Ziliang couldn't pay attention to King Rong, although this guy was noble, he used a telescope to observe the situation on the battlefield, and when he saw that the front row of the archers and the enemy cavalry was not far away, he immediately shouted: "Order, the archers immediately implement the tactics of dividing the troops, detour to the sides of the rebel army and continue to shoot, and at the same time order the three thousand heavy armored iron cavalry in the middle of the Chinese army to attack, to the commander of the enemy army, and to smash the rebel commander!" ”

"Order!" The marching Sima Laiyao immediately conveyed Zhao Ziliang's military order, and as soon as the herald gave the order, the drums and trumpets sounded at the same time, and the flag-bearers kept waving the flag.

After hearing the horn and drum, the herald who followed Bai Xiaode immediately turned his head to observe the flag on the rear platform, and then shouted to Bai Xiaode: "General, the commander ordered to use the tactics of dividing troops to shoot on both flanks of the enemy cavalry!" ”

Bai Xiaode shouted while shooting arrows: "What are you waiting for, give the order immediately!" ”

"No!" The herald immediately raised the flag.

After the flag was played, Bai Xiaode pulled the stirrup with his left foot, and the war horse understood, and immediately turned to the left and galloped away, the flag officer, the flag bearer and the herald immediately followed, and the archers on the left behind him began to turn quickly, and his lieutenant took the right archers to quickly bypass the right, but at this time the arrows in their hands were still shooting out.

In just a few breaths, the archers' phalanx was divided from a horizontal rectangular formation into an inverted figure-eight shape and went around the rebel cavalry with an inverted figure-of-eight gap, and the rebel cavalry rushed over angrily, only to find that the enemy army in front of them ran to the left and right, and this feeling of punching on the cotton was extremely uncomfortable.

When the small gap of the archer cavalry became larger and completely escaped to the two wings, what appeared in front of the rebels was a row of neatly flashing ironclad cavalry with a cold metallic luster, these ironclad cavalry not only knights were fully armed, leaving only two eyes outside, and even the war horses were almost all included in the ironclad cavalry, on the other hand, the first few rows of ironclad cavalry of the rebels, the knights only had the upper body covered with iron armor, and the helmet was still armored, after all, the helmet used too much iron, and the war horse of the rebel ironclad cavalry only had the body of the horse and the **** had armor, There is no armor in other parts, and this kind of defensive ability is completely incomparable with the ironclad heavy cavalry of the Beiting Army, and it is more than a grade worse.

The ironclad heavy cavalry that commanded the Beiting Army were Xuan Qi and Xuan Ba, each of whom received five thousand, and this time it was Xuan Qi who followed Zhao Ziliang, the strategic level of the heavy armored iron cavalry was too important, and Zhao Ziliang could only let his most trusted and loyal people lead him, even if it was handed over to Li Sheng, Li Siye, Fugu Huaien and others, he was not at ease.

After receiving the military order, Xuan Qi took out the iron horse lance and raised it and shouted: "Soldiers, the time has come to test our ironclad heavy cavalry corps, what is our slogan?" ”

The 3,000 ironclad heavy cavalry who were ready to charge raised their spears that were six feet long and shouted: "Unstoppable, I am invincible!" ”

"Attack-" Xuan Qi roared, his legs clamped between the horse's belly, "Ha-" The tall and sturdy war horse jogged forward.

The three thousand ironclad heavy cavalry behind Xuan Qi all rode their horses neatly and began to jog, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves was even greater than the sound created by the 10,000 cavalry of the rebel army before.

"Hiss-" Marching Sima Laiyao This is also the first time to see the ironclad heavy cavalry in battle, and he couldn't help but gasp, this kind of extremely accurate and uniform horse galloping action is too shocking, even in the process of galloping the horse, it is not chaotic at all, and the still neat picture is too unreal.

The 3,000 ironclad heavy cavalry all began to jog and then gradually began to accelerate, this tactic from jogging to gradual acceleration, and then maintaining a high-speed and stable sprint speed to charge the enemy has long been trained, although the soldiers are a little nervous, but this can not affect their battle subconscious, which has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow.

"Mom, what the hell is this monster?" The first few rows of iron cavalry of the rebels saw the rows of iron cavalry rushing towards them, and suddenly everyone showed a look of horror, once they began to be afraid on the battlefield, their combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced, and their fighting spirit would be lost, so what kind of battle could they talk about?

At this time, the rebel cavalry not only had to be shot by the Tang archers on both flanks, but also faced with the oncoming torrent of steel, many of them already had the idea of retreating at this time, but at this time they could not stop at all, and once they stopped, they would be knocked away by their companions behind.

With a "boom", the heavy cavalry on both sides finally collided, and the ironclad heavy cavalry of the Beiting Army, which had high war horses and sophisticated equipment, completely gained the upper hand, and the battle scene was crushing, and the rebel cavalry was like a wall of earth being bulldozed by a bulldozer in a devastating way!
