Chapter 149: Battle 2

The battle in Liangzhou finally began. The red officers and troops of the pen www.biquge.info took the lead in attacking the white rebels.

Before the start of the war, there was no persuasion, no temptation, and it was just an all-out attack.

However, except for Cao De, who did not attack Tianshui City in a real way, the progress of the official army on the other two sites was not too smooth.

Although in the early stage of the battle, the officers and troops did occupy a certain advantage, but with the bloodthirstiness of the Qiang people and the participation of cavalry troops, the battlefield has now returned to a situation of equal strength.

Cao De and Han Sui's fighting generals under Tianshui City shot Yang Qiu to death with that strange bow after Xiahou Yuan shot him to death. Han then fled back to the city, leaving behind the 3,000 soldiers who were going to die.

The bow in Xiahou Yuan's hand is, of course, a trick made by Cao De, this bow was named by Cao De as the Soul Chasing Bow, and the prototype of this bow is based on a game played by Cao De in his previous life, Xiahou Yuan's exclusive weapon.

However, since the weapons in the game are too difficult to craft and use, Cao De can only add some in-game elements to the bow.

For example, Xiahou Yuan's bow is to add two skulls where the two ends of the bow are connected to the bowstring. Then, when shooting an arrow, the bow and arrow will fly out of the mouth of the skull in the middle. Finally, Cao De added a little color to the bow, and the Soul Chasing Bow came out!

To be honest, this bow is different in appearance compared to other bows, and the rest is the same.

Let's talk about the war.

Under the city of Shangbang, the Qiang cavalry that opened the door and left the city was about to crash into Zhu Jun's defensive array.

4,000 Han elite infantry against 10,000 Qiang cavalry. The cavalry of the Qiang people is actually light cavalry. They did not even have the most basic armor on their bodies, they were dressed in white linen clothes, armed with sharp scimitars, and galloped on war horses with a roar.

Although the cavalry dispatched by the Qiang people this time is 10,000 and boundless, they are not a nation that grew up on horseback. The charge of ten thousand cavalry did not collide, there was no confusion. They formed a scattered but sturdy formation, marching in unison, and the Han infantry who were waiting in place with their big shields erected!

Zhu Junnai is a famous general in the world, so he will naturally not let go of the opportunity to take advantage of the fire to rob. When the cavalry of the Qiang people came into range of Zhu Jun's archers, a thousand archers shot out the scythe of death in their hands.

The Qiang people, who had almost zero defense on their bodies, were hit by arrows one after another in the dense rain of arrows, fell to the ground, and then were trampled into flesh by the hooves of the horses behind them.

Zhu Jun's archers only had time to release three waves of arrows before the vanguard of the Qiang cavalry had already arrived in front of a steel wall composed of a huge shield six feet high.

Immediately afterward, the collision of flesh and steel was staged.

The cavalry of the Qiang people jumped with the inertia of charging, some jumped over, some did not.

Most of the cavalry who jumped over were stabbed to death by the spears stretched out from all around before they landed, and then the war horses and knights smashed into the bodies of the Han people under them, and a large gap suddenly appeared. Then, with the help of this gap, the Qiang cavalry who sacrificed their lives for righteousness finally jumped into the formation of the Han official army.

And those cavalrymen who did not jump over were tragically crashed into the giant shield, and then they were killed by the huge inertia. However, he is not without a little merit, at least the giant shield that he hit will shake and even fall to the ground due to the huge impact force. This also gave the compatriots behind him the opportunity to kill the enemy formation.

Judging from Zhu Jun's position, the infantry phalanx at the forefront of his own was broken through two layers in an instant. The cavalry of the Qiang people was naturally not comparable to the Yellow Turban Army of that year.

This is the real battle between iron and blood, and this is the battle that can truly show the soldiers.

Soon, a small half of the 10,000 cavalry of the Qiang people had been entangled by Zhu Jun's shield array, and the remaining cavalry of the Qiang people had lost the momentum of the charge, which was an opportunity.

So, Zhu Jun shouted: "Beat the drums, cavalry charge!" ”

It was impossible for Zhu Jun's cavalry to charge straight forward, because there was still a shield formation formed by their compatriots in front of them. Therefore, the red cavalry divided into two groups, bypassed the two ends of the battle circle, and then controlled the war horses and plunged into the cavalry group of the Qiang people.

The whole battlefield resembles a big tree that has fallen to the ground, the red officer is the trunk, the white Qiang cavalry is the canopy, and the red officer cavalry who marches side by side draws a big circle and finally meets again in the white canopy to complete the circle.

At this moment, on Tianshui City, the momentum of the red official army was higher and higher, and the white rebel infantry led by Liang Xing retreated again and again.

Seeing that the head of the city was about to be occupied by the official army, a Qiang cavalry of several hundred people stepped on the head of the city.

Charge, swing the knife, slash, and charge again.

For a while, the officers and soldiers who were caught off guard were killed by the cavalry of the Qiang people, and one person turned on his horse.

And at this moment, Zhao Yun, who had been waiting for a long time, finally waited for the Qiang cavalry who dared to come from Tianshui City to sneak attack.

10,000 against 20,000, and the rats rode against the Qiang light cavalry.

The place where Zhao Yun was ambushed was not far from Zhu Jun's department, which was fighting at the moment, and it was only more than twenty miles away. Moreover, Cao De arranged for Zhao Yun to come here to be prepared. After all, the reason why the rebels occupied the city of Shangbang was to watch over each other and help each other. Now, Shangbang City is surrounded by Zhu Jun, and it is impossible for Han Sui in Tianshui City to be without action. Therefore, Zhao Yun came.

The leader of the Qiang people who were about to sneak attack Zhu Jun was originally running on a horse. Suddenly, he saw a cavalry lined up in front of him. He knew very clearly from the red suit that this was the enemy. However, the number of this group of officers and soldiers was too small, only 2,000 horsemen. I'm afraid of my own 20,000 sons, and there will be no one to charge the other party!

But he was shouting loudly, speeding up his charge. He was astonished to see the man in the bright silver armor on the other side charging at him with his few poor cavalrymen.

Since you're looking for death, then don't blame me for being rude.

The red torrent and the white ocean were about to collide, Zhao Yun held the Xuanbing Gentian Gun in his hand, and hung the Hanzhong Special Ring Hand Knife on his waist, without fear, and plunged headlong into the white rebel cavalry.

In an instant, red and white dotted each other, and swords and sword shadows flew up and down. Strange screams, screams, and exclamations came and went.

The rebels, who were so focused on the self-defeating officers and soldiers that they did not even notice that they were half-surrounded.

The rest of the cavalry appeared. They did not join the battle circle. Instead, he kept riding war horses and shooting arrows at the Qiang people who had gathered together.

This is a tactic invented by the Huns called kite flying. Originally, kite flying was to use the speed of the war horse and the range of the bow and arrow, you ran and I chased, and you chased and I ran. And in the process of running, he constantly shoots enemies with bows and arrows.

This tactic, improved by Cao De Google and Zhao Yun, was to use a part of the cavalry to attract the enemy's attention, and then the remaining cavalry came out and shot the enemies gathered together.

If the enemy rushes over, shoot by name, and if the enemy panics, keep the arrow gone.

Soon the eight arrows carried by each of the rat cavalry were gone, and they drew their sharp, light sabers at their waists, and charged towards the crowd with great momentum!

On the other hand, Cao De, who twisted Han Sui back into the city, quickly made adjustments after packing up the three thousand baits left by Han Sui. Xu Shu continued to lead a large army to wander under Tianshui City, while Cao De, Guo Jia, and Zhang Fei rushed to Shangbang City with a heavy hammer deputy battalion at the fastest speed.

And in the battle by the Weishui River, at this moment Huangfu Song's men and horses have gained a firm foothold. Behind them a large enough area had been set aside for the follow-up troops to come ashore.

After jumping off the ferry and landing on the riverbank, the red officers and soldiers drew their swords from their waists and joined the battle group in front. And the white rebels are also pressing forward and pressing towards the river. However, the Qiang people who abandoned their war horses did not have a lot of protection, so the rebels' defense line was constantly retreating.

At this moment, the Qiang people, who had been numbering thousands of people, finally broke through their obstacles on war horses and came to the front line.

Immediately afterwards, the cavalry launched a charge. Bright sword light flew up and down, blood splattered along the path of the scimitar.

The previous superiority of the officers and troops was wiped out in an instant. If there is no good way to resist this cavalry, the thousands of officers and soldiers who have landed on the south bank will probably have to be handed over here.

……

The battle in Shangbang City has entered a stalemate. If the issue of reinforcements is not considered, then the competition between the officers and the rebels is now the quality of the soldiers.

Zhu Jun is not the only one facing this situation now. The same is true of Zhao Yun and Zi Mouse Rider, who are not far from Shangbang City.

Although, the sub-rat ride is well-equipped. But after all, it was the first time that the Rat Rider had experienced such a battle. Facing the Qiang cavalry with excellent equestrian skills and extremely rich experience in horse warfare. The advantage of the Rat Riding Gear is gone.

Well, from this point of view. Cao De and the deputy battalion of the 6,000 Heavy Hammer Battalion, who were following him, would be the decisive factor in deciding the victory or defeat of Shangbang. (To be continued.) )
