Chapter 508: Fatal Blow

p

"Da Da ......"

The sound of war horses' hooves was like thunder, and the Hexi cavalry was getting closer and closer, with tens of thousands of horses.

They rushed over like a torrent and knocked the Wei soldiers on their backs.

Especially for the Wei army's foot soldiers, there were heavy casualties.

Under the trampling of the Hexi Iron Cavalry, the Wei soldiers struggled in pain, and the situation was suddenly in chaos.

Uncle Sun Jian's heart was like a wrench, and he shouted loudly: "Quickly withdraw, quickly withdraw...... Withdraw to Yecheng! ”

Uncle Sun Jian knew very well that the foot soldiers were naturally at a disadvantage in the face of cavalry.

Not every army spent a lot of energy like the Hexi army to improve the ability of foot soldiers to defend against cavalry.

Even if the Hexi infantry encountered cavalry, they had to rely on various auxiliary ordnance such as vans and crossbow arrays.

Otherwise, the foot soldiers who have lost the protection of the formation, once they encounter the cavalry charge, will only have an ending of annihilation.

At present, Shusun Jian only hopes that as many of his infantry soldiers will retreat back to Yecheng as possible, and only then can he hope to survive.

Fortunately, the Wei army's foot soldiers are not far from the suspension bridge, and if they let go, they will be able to reach it soon.

But the surrounding area is full of Hexi cavalry, and under the pursuit of the cavalry, once the formation is out of order, I am afraid that few people will survive.

Therefore, Shusun Jian tried his best to maintain a formation to maintain a deterrent to the Hexi cavalry, and then retreated to Yecheng.

Sure enough, when the Hexi cavalry came back again, it swept over in two groups like a current meeting a reef.

Seeing this scene, the Wei army's foot soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, their confidence increased greatly, and they couldn't help but speed up the pace of action.

However, when everyone came to the moat, the drawbridge was still hanging high, and there was no intention of letting go.

Well?! What's going on? Uncle Sun Jian was full of doubts, and a sense of foreboding came to his heart.

Suddenly, I saw a commotion at the head of the city, and Changshi Li Wei held up a bloody human head and shouted: "Murong He has been killed, and you will join the general to take refuge in Dadu Protector." ”

It turned out that as soon as the Hexi cavalry appeared, Li Wei immediately realized that the general trend of the battle of Yecheng had been decided.

He did not hesitate to unite several henchmen to cut off Murong He's head and announced his defection to Hexi.

Now that he has decided to take refuge in Hexi, it is naturally impossible to open the city gate and let the Wei army enter the city.

Therefore, Wei let his uncle Sun Jian shout through his throat, the gate of Yecheng was closed, and the suspension bridge was hung high.

As soon as Uncle Sun Jianyi saw Murong and the head, his head exploded, and Venus was even more chaotic in front of him.

The rest of the Wei army was also shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "General......"

Uncle Sun Jian tried his best to stabilize his mind, and shouted angrily: "Withdraw, while the enemy has not yet closed the siege, kill it immediately." ”

It's too late to retreat now, not to mention that they are still infantry, and they can't outrun four legs on two legs.

And Tan Daoji didn't regard the Wei infantry as the focus of the attack at all, he aimed at the Wei cavalry as soon as he came up.

……

With a roar, Kuan slashed at a Xianbei cavalryman, about to find his next target.

Suddenly, a soldier next to him pointed his finger in front and shouted.

"My lord, what do you think it is?"

Cunn and the other soldiers raised their eyes into the distance.

Between heaven and earth, an army suddenly appeared, a large and neat cavalry brigade.

On the battlefield, the shouts of killing suddenly fell silent, everyone looked at the distant horizon, and a huge sun and moon battle flag suddenly jumped into everyone's field of vision.

"Reinforcements, reinforcements are coming."

The tired Hexi soldiers suddenly became excited, cheering, jumping, and even leaving tears of joy.

Cnn shouted, "Beat the drums...... Drums cheering. ”

Suddenly, the passionate and majestic drum beat resounded in the sky above Yecheng in an instant.

……

Wang Zhenwei is leading his subordinates to fight with Hu Qi.

Suddenly, the earth-shattering sound of war drums came from the east.

As soon as he saw the familiar battle flag, he couldn't help but shake his heart and feel a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

Tan Daoji came with the cavalry, and arrived at the most critical moment of the infantry army.

Suddenly, Wang Zhen was full of pride and raised his knife and shouted.

"Brothers, the cavalry is coming, kill!"

When the infantry sergeants heard the news of the arrival of reinforcements, their spirits were greatly lifted, and they cheered and raised their arms and shouted.

"Reinforcements, reinforcements are coming."

Suddenly, the roar was like a tide, and the offensive of counterattack was higher and higher.

The Wei army was shocked by the sudden morale of the infantry soldiers in Hexi, and fled into the distance in panic one by one.

……

Yu Liyan was shocked when he heard a shout of killing coming from the rear of the army.

He rushed to the rear, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and was immediately dumbfounded, looking horrified and painful.

This time, in order to defeat the Hexi army, the Wei State worked hard.

Unexpectedly, in the end, it was a fiasco, could it be that the naΓ―ve didn't want to let Wei Guo succeed?

At this moment, Yu Liyan could no longer control his emotions, and when he thought of the consequences of losing this battle, he wanted to beat his chest and cry.

Soon he saw the sun and moon battle flag fluttering in the wind, covering his vision tightly.

He immediately raised his horsewhip and shouted: "Command all departments: regroup and prepare for battle." ”

……

While galloping on the horse, Tan Daoji raised his head and just saw the sun and moon battle flags hunting in the air.

As soon as he thought of the 30,000 foot soldiers who had suffered more than half of the casualties, the murderous aura in his heart became stronger and stronger.

He shouted, swung the long knife in his hand violently, and shouted, "Brothers, take revenge and kill Hu." ”

The personal guards cavalry raised their arms at the same time and shouted: "Take revenge and kill Hu." ”

"Revenge and kill." The 20,000 cavalrymen raised their weapons and shouted loudly, and their voices were so loud that they shook the earth.

"Kill." Tan Daoji was hoarse and raised his knife to point forward.

"Kill."

The morale of the Hexi cavalry was like a rainbow, and the roar was like thunder, and they urged the war horses to start running quickly.

Ten thousand horses galloped, rolling up the sky full of smoke and dust, and its huge roar became louder and more violent.

21,000 Hexi iron horsemen rushed over overwhelmingly, unstoppable.

At present, there were nearly 20,000 Wei army iron horsemen left on the battlefield, and they saw the Hexi army rushing towards them.

Without waiting for Li Yan's order, they gave up besieging and killing the Hexi infantry one after another, turned around and rushed out of the formation, and met them.

"Order the cavalry on both flanks to shrink their formations and prepare to shoot."

When the cavalry on both wings heard the sound of the trumpets of the Chinese army, they immediately changed their formation into cones, and shot at the enemy formation like two arrows off the string.

"Whoosh."

Thousands of long arrows rose into the air and shot at the swarming Hulu cavalry.

In an instant, arrows rained down, arrows flew like locusts, and the sky was dark.

When the Wei cavalry saw the arrows whizzing in the sky, they immediately leaned down and brandished their swords and guns to shoot the arrows.

Suddenly, a series of dull arrows sounded into the body, and the men and horses were hit by arrows one after another.

The horses neighed, the soldiers howled, and countless horses' hooves trampled them to a blur of flesh and blood.

Long arrows flew in the air, and the Wei cavalry suffered countless casualties.

Immediately afterwards, the Hexi cavalry swept towards the Wei cavalry formation like a hurricane.

"Boom, boom......"

After a loud roar, the cavalry of both sides collided and engaged in close combat.

Suddenly, the sound of war drums, horns, the shouts of soldiers, and the galloping sound of war horses were all mixed together and soared into the sky

For the first time in the world, the two major cavalry faced each other directly, and although the number of troops was almost the same, it was obvious that the Hexi people had the upper hand.

As soon as the two sides made a slight contact, the Wei cavalry, which had long been exhausted, could not stop the impact of the Hexi Iron Cavalry at all.

Yu Liyan strongly encouraged his subordinates and tried to rush away from the Hexi cavalry to intercept him.

But the Wei army was obviously at the end of the crossbow, and in the face of the Hexi Iron Cavalry roaring in front of him, Hu Cai was desperate and afraid.

The Hexi Iron Cavalry offensive was too fierce, like a storm, unstoppable.

More and more Wei cavalry fell off their horses, and more and more Wei cavalry fled into the distance.

The Hexi cavalry was still unyielding, howling and galloping wildly, vowing to kill Hu Cai.

As early as before the war, Wang Zhenwei instructed Tan Daoji that the first battle of Yecheng must severely damage the Wei army, and the other party must not dare to offend again.

Therefore, at the beginning of the war, Tan Daoji planned to completely annihilate the Wei army in Yecheng.

The earth was trembling, and Yu Liyan was also trembling, worried about the fate of the 30,000 Wei army iron cavalry that was about to be destroyed.

Countless Hulu pointed to the gradually approaching torrent of iron horses, and shouted loudly: "General, the Hexi people are here......

The roar was mixed with fear and panic.

At this moment, the Wei army was in chaos.

They were completely defenseless, let alone set up a defensive position in advance.

Throughout the day, they were attacking the Hexi infantry with all their might, and the soldiers were tired.

Just when they were thinking about destroying the Hexi Army's foot soldiers in one go, Hexi reinforcements suddenly arrived.
