Chapter 54: Chariot Charge

However, the two-legged ones always can't run on four wheels, although Chen Jun's sword and axe men are also lightly armed, but they are still getting more and more away from the chariot troops in front, and directly pull out a gap of about half a mile, and behind the more than 3,000 sword and axe hands, more than 2,000 long lance men are still slowly forming a gun formation to advance, and they are also two or three hundred steps away from the sword and axe hands.

The first-line lance bearers of the Sui army squatted down, and the long lance in their hands was tilted forward, obliquely inserted on the ground behind them, forming an oblique stabbing angle, and the soldiers in the first row held their breath and stared at the eyes of the emperors on the opponent's chariot that were already clearly visible, and only heard the hoarse roar of the governors of each team: "Steady, steady!"

Chen Jun's chariot rushed in from the gap between the large carts that were used as shelters in front of the Sui army's front, and a few chariots also collided directly with the cart because they were too fast to change direction, and immediately hit several people on the cart into the sky, but the chariot that rushed in hit the gun array of the Sui army on the front line.

The huge momentum directly knocked many of the infantry of the Sui army into a flight, screaming and being stabbed into a string of people by the spears held high by the soldiers behind, and some of the infantry were directly knocked to the ground by the huge impact force, bleeding to death.

But the horse that pulled the chariot was not a tank of later generations, although it was dressed in a horse armor, it was still flesh and blood, and it was also bloody by the spear lance of Rulin, and many horses were stuck with broken spears, and before they died, they continued to rush forward by inertia for a certain distance, and after knocking down seven or eight Sui infantrymen, they fell to the ground and died.

The soldiers of the Chen army on the chariot were all stunned, and there were few troops in Jiangnan who dared to form a formation to shake the chariot, and the high degree of discipline and courage of the Sui army made this impossible task a reality.

The huge impact force not only caused the soldiers of the Sui army to be washed down piece by piece, but also directly shocked the Chen soldiers on the chariot and flew out of the car one by one, while the Sui soldiers who were still standing quickly stepped forward and stabbed these Chen soldiers to death one after another.

At the same time, the auxiliaries at the rear of the Sui army array quickly penetrated into the military formation, carried the wounded down, and the soldiers in the back row of the Sui army automatically pushed to the front to make up for the dead and wounded comrades in front, so that after paying four or five hundred casualties, the spear array of the Sui army relied on a high degree of discipline to successfully block the crazy frontal impact of the Chen army's chariot.

Wang Huaqiang saw that his blood was boiling, he clapped his hands fiercely, and shouted: "Okay!" He had seen a lot of movies before the crossing, but even Hollywood blockbusters of the level of Lord of the Rings and Gladiator were far from the bloodiness and excitement of this real battlefield.

He Ruobi still looked at the bloody battle under the mountain with an expressionless face, and nodded slightly.

The war knife in Yuan Ming's hand was raised again, and the archers who had just run from both sides of the gun array to the rear quickly replenished their arrows, and now they pulled their bows and wound them at the rear of the gun array, and with the orders of their respective governors, the arrows were like dark clouds covering the sun, drawing arcs one by one, and pouring them from the air towards the enemy swords and axes who were still rushing towards their side.

At this time, Chen Jun's lightly armed sword and axe men were already panting, staring at blood-red eyes, and rushed to a place where there were still more than 30 steps away from the cart in front of the gun array, because their vision was blocked by more than 300 carts and the more than 100 chariots destroyed by their own side, many people still didn't know what was going on inside, and thought that the other party's front had been run over by their own chariots, and their task was only to chase and kill the fleeing enemy.

But the hundreds of strong men who ran at the front finally saw the scene on the opposite side, only to see that all the chariots of their own side were staggered and paralyzed on the ground, and the war horses pulling the chariots were bleeding one by one, falling in a pool of blood and kicking their legs weakly, and the corpses of their chariot soldiers were lying on the ground, and the corpses of the chariot soldiers were stabbed like bloody mud in their earthy yellow clothes, and all kinds of severed limbs and internal organs of people and horses flowed to the ground, like a huge slaughterhouse.

The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, and the spearmen on the front line of the Sui army on the opposite side were covered with blood and hideous faces, and with the sound of the earth-shattering drums in the rear, they roared and roared, like fierce gods, and many people's spears were still hanging on the tips of some livers, intestines and the like, swinging in the wind.

The vast majority of the three thousand Chen Army's swordsmen and axes were temporarily recruited ruffians and pigs and dogs, and they volunteered to join this first formation for a high bounty, hoping to follow the charge of the chariot, just need to grab people's heads behind, but they didn't expect the real battlefield to be so cruel, many people threw away the big swords and battle axes in their hands, and began to squat on the ground, vomiting heavily.

Several Chen Jun soldiers were still talking to each other while spitting.

"Ma Er, fucking you died this time, it's all your fault for being a stupid bird, saying that there is a heavy reward for joining the former army, grandma, why don't you rush at this time."

"Damn, how did Lao Tzu know that this would be the result, didn't the storyteller Liu Blind say that as long as the chariot rushed, the enemy army would flee from the wind, and all we had to do was cut off people's heads."

"Cut off your sister's head, this time our head will be burned if we don't cut it off, you fucking help the brothers see how they can escape."

"Run away, run away, haven't you heard the military order, you will run back without Ming Jin, you will lose your head. Why don't we pretend to be dead first, get under the cart when we get there, and come out when we're done. ”

"Grandma, you kid has a lot of ideas, listen to you, hey, why is it dark all of a sudden?"

These unknown Chen Dynasty soldiers just raised their heads, only to see a bunch of black and pressed long arrows falling from the sky, and the triangular arrows that flashed with cold light were their last memories in this world.

More than 2,000 longbowmen shot out all the more than 20 arrows in the quiver at the fastest speed, and it took less than five minutes, Chen Saber and Axemen, who lacked armor and no shield, were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered under this wave of arrows rain of arrows, many people threw away their knives and axes, turned around and fled, but they hurriedly bumped into the people behind them, fell to the ground, and were shot into hedgehogs by a rain of arrows in the air before they could get up.

In just a few moments, more than half of the more than 3,000 swords and axes that Chen Jun rushed over were shot dead, and the remaining more than 1,000 people threw away their weapons and ran backwards crying, finally escaping for their lives.

Unlike the bow and arrow shooting just now, many people were injured by arrows in that burst, and they were carried back by their companions, but this time the arrow rain in the open area was cleaned, but no one dared to stop to help others, and as long as the person who was injured by the arrow stopped a little, he would be shot to the ground by the next arrow for a moment, and finally he could only wait for death.

Seeing this tragic situation in front of them, the lancers and shield bearers of the third group of Chen Jun were frightened one by one, and they saw a bunch of swordsmen and axemen throwing away their weapons and fleeing for their lives in tears, no longer caring about killing the enemy and receiving rewards.

I don't know who shouted, "Everyone, run for your life"! Thousands of people threw away their weapons and shields in a hurry, and fled backwards without their lives, taking off their heavy armor as they ran, only hating themselves for wearing too much, which affected the speed of escape.

Tian Rui rode on the horse, looking at the battle situation in front of him, his face was already colorless, he and Liu Yitong, the guard of the new pavilion, were just relying on Shi Wenqing's thigh to get on the top, and he didn't have much actual combat experience, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to do a good job in the coordinated operation of multiple arms, and pull out such a big gap between the chariot, the knife and axe hand and the spear hand.

Seeing that the soldiers in front of him had turned into a group of rhinoceros fleeing for their lives, Tian Rui came to his senses, drew his sword, and roared: "Don't retreat, those who violate the order will be killed, all go back and continue to fight!" ”

But the personal guards around Tian Rui began to turn their horses and run away, and the herald behind him trembled and said: "General, let's run, if you don't run and rush the rebels, if you fall off the horse, you will be trampled to death!"

Tian Rui turned his head and yelled at the herald: "Bastard, you dare to shake the heart of the army, this general, this general will behead you!"

The herald was so frightened that he turned around and ran, Tian Rui chased two steps and didn't catch up, he threw the long sword in his hand, the herald shrank his head, the sword directly smashed his helmet, he hugged the horse's neck and mixed in a bunch of personal soldiers and galloped all the way, and soon dissipated in the smoke and dust.
