Chapter 841: No Victory?
Chapter 841: No Victory? (Page 1/1)
Wu Xiang fell into despair the moment he saw the heavy cavalry of the Changxing Army, he had already known that the Changxing Army had the existence of the Iron Floating Massacre, where would he stupidly come over to fight the Changxing Army.
Although the heavy cavalry has unparalleled impact power, it is not without weaknesses. The heavy armor provided the centaurs with sufficient defense and impact, but also limited their speed.
When Genghis Khan swept across the Eurasian continent, he used the Mongolian light cavalry to teach the heavy cavalry a hard lesson, and the heavy cavalry could be dragged down by guerrilla tactics.
Delivering a fatal blow when they were drowsy and lacking in horses was an invincible method against the heavily armored cavalry.
But Wu Xiang at this moment is different, the five thousand cavalry have suffered heavy casualties under the blow of the Changxing army, and the casualties of 20% have shaken the heart of the Guanning army.
At this moment, seeing more than a thousand heavily armored cavalry charging, he could no longer raise the confidence to fight with them. Not only that, but behind more than a thousand heavy armored cavalry, three thousand light cavalry appeared.
They lined up on both sides with the heavy cavalry and surrounded Wu Xiang. The appearance of these cavalry made the Guanning cavalry completely collapse, and they stopped their horses one after another, and no one charged forward anymore, and they looked at their commanders in panic one by one.
Wu Xiang was also in the midst of a collapse and had the intention to flee immediately, but their war horses were not as good as the new horses on Jeju Island. The speed itself is much worse, not to mention the consumption of the charge just now.
The heavy armored cavalry of the Changxing army did not give Wu Xiang time to think about it and crashed into the array of Guanning cavalry, and the invulnerable heavy cavalry crashed into the array of Guanning cavalry without any fighting spirit.
The battlefield with full body iron armor didn't care about what was in front of him at all, and directly crashed into it. Immediately in front of the Guanning cavalry, there was a burst of people on their backs, and the screams continued to sound.
Andrew rushed to the front row first, with a long cavalry gun in his hand, and shouted as he approached the enemy line: "Hold the gun!" ”
The spears on horseback were caught under the armpits of the knights, and the tips of the glittering spears were aimed at the enemy horsemen.
At the moment of collision, the cavalry spear stabbed into the opponent's body fiercely, and the specially built cavalry spear immediately broke. Andrew threw away his mount, took off the shackle and smashed it at the enemy around him.
With every shot, an enemy was smashed off his horse, and the sword slashed at him could not break through the armor's defenses.
The heavy cavalry of the Changxing Army cut through the enemy line as easily as a hot knife cutting into butter, and no enemy could stop them at all.
The light cavalry led by Bayan also surrounded on both sides, and they roamed around the periphery constantly firing their bows and arrows, and the Guanning cavalry were hit by arrows and fell off their horses.
The moment the two sides fought, the winner was already decided, and the Guanning cavalry could no longer hold on. No matter how high the reward is, you have to have a life to spend it, and no amount of silver will help if you don't have a life.
The rout occurred in an instant inside the Guanning cavalry, and even Wu Xiang had no power to return to the sky, so he could only retreat backwards with the rout.
The light cavalry led by Bayan roamed on both flanks and plunged directly into the enemy's ribs at the moment of the rout of the Guanning cavalry. At least more than 3,000 cavalry were stopped by Bayan, and Wu Xiang only led less than 1,000 cavalry to escape back to the camp.
The encircled Guanning cavalry did not have the determination to fight to the death, they only symbolically resisted and chose to surrender. This is a veteran of Guanning who has survived the battlefield for many years, and he can't choose to surrender immediately.
Although the Changxing army won a complete victory, Zhang Dou was not too happy. The Guanning cavalry lacked a ruthless spirit, and they did not have the courage to fight to the death with the enemy.
It is also a kind of helplessness for the court to bet on such an army! With them, they want to defeat the Jurchens who are locked up and recover Liaodong, so they can only hehe.
It's time to finish! The blood of the Han family could not be consumed in the civil war, and the imperial court still needed such a force to contain the Jurchens outside the Guan.
Wu Xiang fled back to the camp and sat in the big tent decadently, and the Guanning cavalry was finished. The last force was also wiped out, and what else could he do to deal with the next attack of the Changxing army.
The artillery of the Changxing army roared, and there was a possibility of entering the camp at any time. What will he use to resist when the time comes? Is it just those soldiers who are soft-handed and soft-footed?
When Wu Xiang sighed, the artillery fire of the Changxing army suddenly stopped. What's the situation? Wu Xiang ran out of the big tent excitedly, and looked in the direction of Changxingjun in disbelief.
Could it be that the artillery of the Changxing Army was blown up? Or did they run out of cannons they brought? Or maybe the artillery was too hot and had to stop shelling?
Whatever the reason, the ceasefire of the Changxing Army was too timely. It was rare to give the Guanning cavalry a chance to breathe, and let Wu Xiang in despair have a glimmer of hope.
Wu Xiang immediately ordered the soldiers to treat the wounded and repair the collapsed wall. Although he knew that the repaired wall could not withstand the bombardment of artillery, he had to do something, otherwise the Guanning cavalry would really be finished.
Just when the Guanning cavalry was busy, a horse rushed out of the Changxing army. The cavalryman held a white flag and marched towards the Guanning cavalry camp, and when he got closer, someone immediately recognized him.
"Major General! It's really a major general! ”
"How did the major general come out of the Changxing Army?"
……
Wu Xiang almost couldn't believe his ears when he heard someone say that the person who came was his son, and the unknown life and death of his son for days made him frown.
When he heard that the person who came was his son, he couldn't help but run to the village to take a look, until Wu Sangui entered the camp and Wu Xiang came to his son excitedly.
When Wu Sangui saw his father, he immediately jumped off the war horse and knelt down, kowtowed again and again: "My son's unfilial piety has worried my father, and I ask my father to take care of his body!" ”
Wu Xiang hugged his son with tears in his eyes and said, "It's good to come back!" It's good to be back! ……”
What is the battle with the Changxing army at this moment? What punishment of the imperial court after the defeat? What is the honor of Liaoxi Jiangmen? All of them were left behind by Wu Xiang.
The safety of your son is the most important thing, and we will talk about the rest later!
When he returned to his big tent, Wu Xiang began to ask his son what had happened in the past few days, and Wu Sangui did not hide that he had told what he had seen and heard in the Changxing Army in the past few days.
Wu Xiang was speechless for a long time after hearing this, and sighed and said: "Zhang Dou has a good way of governing the army, and I, Wu Xiang, am ashamed of myself!" ”
Wu Sangui hesitated after speaking, and continued: "Father! Dingguo Gong said that the Changxing Army and the Guanning cavalry did not win or lose in this military exercise, but they were just ...... It's just ......" Wu Sangui's words were a little unbearable.
Wu Xiang just smiled bitterly and said, "I don't have to hide it, just say whatever you want!" What military exercises? What doesn't make a difference? It's just words! Let's talk about Zhang Dou's requirements! ”
Wu Sangui gritted his teeth when he heard his father's words and said: "Dingguo Gong said: It is a pity that our war horses are sick and cannot fight, and there are good doctors in his army who can heal the war horses, and we want to hand over all the war horses to the Changxing army for treatment!" ”
