Chapter 179: Ambush
Just before the arrows were released, there was also a sound behind them, and the momentum was even greater than that of the army led by Luo Cheng. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Luo Cheng, who was leading the army to gallop, naturally felt the abnormal vibration of the ground, they had time to turn the horse's head, but they didn't make an inch, so they retreated in embarrassment, he was really unwilling.
Now that the arrow is ready to be fired, they have to be fired, and besides, if there is a real battle, they may not lose.
Tang Guo's iron cavalry is invincible!
This is Luo Cheng's self-confidence!
Similarly, as the elite cavalry of the Tang Kingdom, they also realized that there might be an ambush ahead, and if they retreated now, not to mention that Luo Cheng was unwilling, even they didn't want to retreat without a fight.
Honor is my life!
These are the words in the hearts of all the soldiers, seeing that the main general did not say a word, and continued to take the lead in charging forward, the main general did not avoid death, let alone them.
Feeling the influence of Luo Cheng's momentum, none of them showed timidity, but their fighting spirit was high.
"Da Da ......"
The two waves of cavalry appeared almost at the same time, and the general who escorted the grain roughly estimated the strength of both sides, obviously having a great advantage, and laughed: "Brothers, the enemy has been fooled, prepare to meet the enemy!" ”
With that, he took the lead and rushed out.
"Yan Liang is here, Tang Guo has no plan, and he doesn't get off his horse and be bound quickly."
Before leaving, Tian Feng specially instructed him to be careful of disguise, and at the same time be careful of Tang Guo's meticulous work in Youzhou, and at the same time help him set up a plan to lure the snake out of the hole.
Since he received the order, he directly disguised himself as a soldier who came to escort grain and grass, led people into Zhuo County, and deliberately stayed here for one night, in order to let the Tang State Detective hear the news.
Now that the big fish has finally taken the bait, Luo Cheng knows that his combat power is unparalleled, so he specially dispatched 20,000 light horsemen to hide behind them and stand by.
Luo Cheng, who was ambushed, did not have the slightest cowardice in his heart, and the five thousand of them dared to go deep into the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom, and they had already put life and death aside and were ready to be besieged and killed.
"Soldiers, kill with me!"
"Fight to the death!"
The knight behind Luo Cheng also raised his spear and shouted, not at all cowardly in the face of a strong enemy, but stared at the enemy on the opposite side cruelly, looking at a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
The distance between the two armies, for the galloping cavalry, came in the blink of an eye.
"Spread out, take the bow, ride and shoot!"
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was less than 100 zhang, Luo Cheng estimated the distance and issued an unusually concise military order.
Cavalry archery is a skill that everyone in the Tang cavalry must master, and they have practiced countless times, especially the generals, who have strict training for the control of the distance between the two sides when galloping.
As soon as they heard Luo Cheng's order, the whole team immediately scattered to both sides, and then took a bow and arrows, and the sky was full of arrows and flew towards the enemy.
The distance between the two armies was only enough for Luo Cheng and the others to rain arrows, and when the arrows were fired, they immediately hung their bows and took their swords, and at the same time contracted the formation, using Luo as an arrow, and forming a sharp arrow formation to kill the opposite side.
In the face of the Tang army's rain of arrows, Yan Liang had no choice, after all, only a few of their soldiers could ride and shoot, and they were still of a different race, and if they wanted to shoot against the Tang army, they still lacked some heat.
However, Yan Liang was not without a response, he ordered the troops to line up directly, with the two wings protruding, and a posture of wrapping Luo Cheng's five thousand soldiers and horses around.
In a few breaths, the soldiers and horses of the two sides began to touch, and the knights in the front row collided directly.
The cavalry on both sides met after galloping for several miles, and the impact was so strong that countless front-row knights were knocked off their horses by the huge force, flew up, and then fell to the ground, screaming and stopping.
Cavalry hedge, as long as the horse falls, it is basically death, and it is still trampled into meat by the enemy or the war horses of the comrades, and there is no possibility of survival.
All of a sudden, people on the battlefield turned on their backs.
What followed was the neighing of war horses, and the screams of countless people, and the smell of blood had covered the battlefield in the blink of an eye.
Only this time hedged, the two sides combined, has lost a thousand people, the two sides exchanged positions, and at the same time turned the horse's head, only to see the corpses in the field, almost every body is mutilated, blood is soaking the red earth, so not tragic.
"Kill!"
Without any nonsense, after a few breaths, the two sides charged again without agreement.
After several rounds, in the end, the horses of both sides lost their strength to sprint and began to mix together, and a melee began.
"Damn, why is the Tang Army so difficult!"
In the chaos, Yan Liang glanced at the situation on the battlefield and saw that the 20,000 cavalry under his command were on par with the 5,000 Tang Army, and his heart was furious.
"General be careful!"
Just as Yan Liang was distracted, a Tang soldier quietly approached from behind Yan Liang and slashed at his back.
Clang!
There was a crisp sound, but fortunately, Yan Liang reacted in time, and he was not succeeded in his sneak attack, and with a backhand, he would sneak attack his pawn.
Seeing this, the Tang soldiers next to him did not have the slightest timidity, their comrades were killed, and they killed Yan Liang regardless of their lives, hoping to avenge him.
Whew!
After a few more swords, Yan Liang killed the soldiers who rushed to his side, but the bravery of the Tang army also left a deep impression on him and a scar.
Just now, there were three Tang soldiers teamed up to kill him, due to the chaos of the battlefield, the guards around him could not block it, and they approached him, thinking that he could easily deal with it, but he didn't want to, two of them desperately blocked him, and the other wanted to sneak attack, in the end, he killed the three soldiers, but they also slashed his back.
"Kill!"
The injured Yan Liang was even more angry, and the big knife in his hand waved again and again, setting off a bloody storm.
"Yan Liang, take your life!"
Besides, Luo Cheng rushed all the way to kill, and finally found Yan Liang who was slaughtering soldiers, without saying a word, he shot him in the neck.
Clang!
Yan Liang blocked Luo Cheng's shot, and then facilitated Luo Cheng to maneuver together.
Yan Liang's sword technique is powerful, Luo Cheng's strength is not as strong as Yan Liang, but the difference is not too big, relying on amazing skills, Luo Cheng filled some scars on Yan Liang's body, but it was not a fatal injury.
In the end, Yan Liang gradually lost to Luo Cheng, so he could only force him back with one sword, relying on the guards and the layers of protection of the Jin army, he withdrew from the battle circle and hid in the army to command the battle.
And Luo Cheng saw Yan Liang leaving and wanted to leave him, but there were countless Jin soldiers in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, he had already lost Yan Liang's figure, and finally had to give up killing Yan Liang and began to coordinate the battle.
Although they are still tied with the Jin army now, their sharp energy is about to be exhausted, and without the support of this sharp energy, maybe they will be more auspicious.
We can't fight any harder! Luo Cheng looked at the gradually changing situation in the field, and immediately ordered: "Tang Jun listens to the order and withdraws!" ”
