Chapter 789: Blocking the Enemy

Zhang Bao'er turned her head to Wang Haibin and Li Sijing and said, "Are you ready?" ”

Wang Haibin said solemnly: "Okay, we can set off at any time!" ”

Zhang Bao'er nodded and said, "I'll listen to my orders later, if the Khitan cavalry on the front doesn't come to reinforce us, we won't move." If they move, you must stop them, you only need to fight for half an hour, and the cavalry on the left flank will be annihilated. ”

After listening to Zhang Baoer's words, Wang Haibin was suddenly stupid and forgot to answer.

The Khitan cavalry has always been strong, and even the Turks did not dare to underestimate it. Over the years, the Khitan army has often won more with less, and has basically never been defeated. I don't know if Zhang Bao'er is invincible or fearless, he is so sure of this battle, the five hundred Luzhou regiment training against the four thousand Khitan cavalry, he actually wants to annihilate the other party, and it only takes half an hour, I am afraid that he dares to think like this in the world.

Zhang Baoer saw that Wang Haibin stopped talking, and turned her eyes to the left wing again.

The Luzhou cavalry charging in the opposite direction was somewhat different from the Khitan cavalry, the Khitan cavalry was charging and waving the saber in their hands, while the saber of the Luzhou cavalry was not unsheathed on horseback. In an instant, the two armies were a hundred paces away. At this time, the Luzhou cavalry began to move, as if by magic, they held a repeating crossbow in each hand at some point. Needless to say, the auxiliary soldiers had already loaded the crossbow arrows in the repeating crossbow, and the iron arrows shot at the galloping Khitan cavalry like locusts. With the momentum of the fast horse, the power of the crossbow arrows became even stronger, and the Khitan cavalry was caught off guard and suddenly fell down in a large area.

After the crossbow arrows were fired, the expensive Bianfa crossbow was dropped by the Luzhou cavalry without hesitation, and they took off the ash from their horses and threw their spears, and with their horsepower, they nailed the throwing spears to the Khitans.

The Khitans had never seen such cavalry, and in their opinion, the cavalry of the two armies launched a charge, and the final decision should be after the confrontation, and it was incredible that they could kill and injure each other in the process of charging like this. Under the repeated blows, more and more Khitan cavalry who rushed in front fell to the ground, and the cavalry behind was obstructed by their line of sight and did not know what to do, and when they found out, they had no time to rein in their horses and were tripped one after another. If you are thrown off a fast-running warhorse, you may not be able to die for a while, but you will definitely have no combat effectiveness.

Since the obstacles on the ground can trip the Khitan cavalry, they can also trip the Luzhou cavalry. Xue Ne and Wang Haibin watched the battle and saw clearly, just now the Luzhou cavalry killed and injured a large number of enemies, and before they had time to cheer, seeing that the Luzhou cavalry was getting closer and closer to the enemy, their hearts rose to their throats again.

When the Luzhou cavalry was only twenty paces away from the place where it fell into a piece, a miracle appeared, all the Luzhou cavalry were like a person, not only turned to the right in unison, but also neatly staggered. Because of this turn, the Luzhou cavalry avoided the tragedy of tripping.

The Luzhou cavalry, which turned around, did not slow down, but continued to rush forward from the flank of the Khitans. In this way, the Luzhou cavalry and the Khitans passed each other, although they both surpassed each other, but they had no chance to fight at all.

Seeing this breathtaking scene, not only Xue Ne and Wang Haibin, but even Zhang Baoer breathed a sigh of relief, the solemn expression just now was swept away, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again.

Xue Ne exclaimed: "Dingguo Gong, cavalry can still fight like this, how did they do it?" ”

Zhang Bao'er said with a smile: "If you really talk about kung fu immediately, the Khitans are indeed very strong, and using cavalry to deal with nomadic cavalry like the Khitan Turks must find another way." This style of play, they have to practice every day, and they have been training without interruption for three years, otherwise it would be impossible to shoot two repeating crossbows in such a short period of time, and they can also throw three throwing guns. ”

Wang Haibin said with emotion: "The Luzhou regimental cavalry suddenly turned around at high speed, which I am afraid even the Turkic Khitan cavalry could not do. ”

Zhang Bao'er nodded and said, "If you don't go through special training, of course you can't do it." In order to do this, more than 4,000 good horses were scrapped in three years. ”

Xue Ne and Wang Haibin were silent, they knew that although Zhang Baoer said it was simple, but the hardships would definitely not be known if they didn't experience it personally.

Zhang Bao'er and Xue Wang were talking, but their eyes were not idle, he found that the Khitan frontal cavalry began to act, so he said to Wang Haibin: "The Khitan cavalry is coming to help, Wang Duwei, it's time for you to play." ”

"Dingguo Gong, I'm leaving, wait for my good news!" Wang Haibin saluted Zhang Baoer.

"Wang Duwei!"

"What's the matter!"

"Please!" Zhang Bao'er exhaled deeply and said sincerely: "Come back alive!" ”

Wang Haibin nodded emphatically.

In a moment, Wang Haibin and Li Sijing rushed out of the car formation with more than 1,000 Tang cavalry, and went head-on to the Khitan cavalry who came to help.

When Wang Haibin set out, the Luzhou cavalry was already behind the Khitan cavalry on the left flank, and the Khitan cavalry finally stopped, and they turned to face the Luzhou cavalry that made them suffer a big loss, and they didn't dare to despise it anymore. At this time, the Luzhou cavalry and the Khitan cavalry happened to switch positions, the difference was that the Luzhou cavalry was unharmed, while the Khitan cavalry lost more than 1,000 people. Although the Khitans were still several times larger than the Luzhou cavalry, they no longer had the confidence to win. On the contrary, the Luzhou cavalry has not changed at all, like a mountain, as solid as a rock.

The Khitans had not yet recovered from their inexplicable defeat, and there was a sudden commotion in their rear, and it turned out that the ballista in the car formation had begun to fire giant arrows again. Previously, the two armies charged each other, and the Luzhou cavalry was located between the chariot array and the Khitans, so the crossbow arrows could not be fired in the chariot array. Now, the cavalry on both sides has been transferred, and the Khitans are gathered in the middle, they only think about how to deal with the Luzhou cavalry, but they ignore the power of the ballista in the car array. At this moment, the ballista suddenly fired arrows, which naturally surprised the Khitans.

Just when the Khitans were in turmoil, the Luzhou cavalry took the lead in charging. The strange tactics of the Luzhou cavalry made the Khitans jealous, and they did not dare to charge quickly this time, so they could only move forward slowly to meet the battle, so that the advantage of their cavalry's rapid impact was gone.

The Luzhou cavalry did not use crossbows or throw spears this time, but as with the previous attacks of the Khitans, wielding sabers in their hands, they rushed faster and faster, like an arrow off the string, shooting at the Khitans.

At the same time, the Tang army led by Wang Haibin and the Khitan who came to aid also began to clash.

The number of Khitan cavalry rescued was not large, about more than 3,000 people, but they were the most elite cavalry of the Khitan, they were warriors selected from the entire Khitan people, and they were also the attendants of the Khitan king Li Sheng.
