On the 22nd day after you arrived at the Qianzhou battlefield, the cavalry units of the Northern Han suddenly poured out of their nests and once again attacked the supply lines of Qianzhou in a big way.

Zhuang Fu saw that the other party's momentum was huge, extraordinary, and had the courage to break the cauldron and sink the boat, so he also personally led all the cavalry out of the city to meet the battle.

Fierce scuffles ensued between the two sides along the supply lines. After a period of scuffle, the Northern Han cavalry was defeated and fled.

Zhuang Fuming didn't know that you had arrived at the Qianzhou battlefield, in the case of winning 15 battles in a row, seeing that the Northern Han army was defeated again, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, he decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue, and finished his work in one battle, annihilating the Northern Han cavalry in one fell swoop.

They followed the defeated and fleeing Northern Han cavalry and chased them to a valley, where suddenly the Northern Han cavalry resumed their orderly formation and scattered in all directions like a tide.

Zhuang Fuming noticed that a strange army had appeared in front of him that he had never seen before. Zhuang Fuming's light cavalry unit is facing your special infantry unit armed with giant shields and flying javelins.

2,000 huge shields shimmered brightly in the sun.

Such a huge shield, Zhuang Fuming has never seen it in his life! For a moment, he thought it was his old eyes that he had misunderstood, but the same surprised expressions on the faces of everyone around him let him know that he was not mistaken.

Just as he was stunned, the sound of horses' hooves behind him was loud, and smoke and dust were everywhere.

The long-tested elite hoplite cavalry of the northern front of Wu Shunbu appeared at the mouth of the valley. He took the lead and led the Northern Han cavalry to quickly block the valley and lock Zhuang Fuming's troops in the valley.

Zhuang Fu knew that it was not good, so he ordered the rear team to turn to the forward and immediately attack Taniguchi, hoping to recapture the passage and leave the ambush circle of the Northern Han army. However, the contact between the rear team and Wu Shunbu was strongly blocked by Wu Shunbu. Wu Shunbu's stainless steel saber had the upper hand.

The first wave of the rear team, which lost the next batch of corpses, failed and retreated.

Just as Zhuang Fuming was about to launch a second assault, the Han light cavalry that had fled and scattered before also reappeared, and they joined Wu Shun's defensive line.

On the cliffs on both sides of the valley, a large number of archers of the Northern Han infantry appeared.

At the same time as Zhuang Fuming was regrouping, the Northern Han army fired thousands of arrows from the cliffs in front and on both sides. Zhuang Fuming's cavalry immediately fell into a rain of arrows.

Zhuang Fuming was forced to retreat from the mouth of the valley and retreat back to the middle of the valley to avoid the rain of arrows. However, the Northern Han army did not continue to catch up. Obviously, Wu Shun's task was to be responsible for compressing them in the valley and holding the valley mouth, and was not responsible for annihilating them.

Protecting your precious elite cavalry forces from heavy casualties is your consistent principle of warfare.

Zhuang Fuming had no choice but to turn around and face your special infantry.

Zhuang Fuming, who was encircled, had no choice but to launch a frontal charge against the 2,000 giant steel shields on the opposite side.

He didn't know what the giant shields were hiding, but he judged that it was most likely infantry behind the giant shields. Although he had no bottom in his heart, he did not despair, he hoped that with good mobility, he could quickly go around the back of those huge shields and slash the infantry, and then break out from the front.

Zhuang Fuming's cavalry ranks began a swift charge towards the giant shield array. They swept through the smoke and dust, and the mountains shook and slashed at the shields of steel.

Just as they were about to approach the shield array, the Giant Shield Formation suddenly changed.

The giant shields began to disperse and combine into a phalanx that was staggered, clearly layered, and could effectively cover each other. All the infantry hid in the center of the phalanx. The cavalry of the Southern Han Army could only start to circle around the phalanx, and could not find anyone to be slashed and killed. The effect of riding a horse to storm the phalanx is the same as the effect of riding a horse to hit the 30-meter-thick city wall of Qianzhou.

Beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Zhuang Fuming's head, and he knew that today was more auspicious, and he was afraid that he would die in this valley. Just when his brain was spinning and he was desperately thinking of a countermeasure, something terrible happened.

From behind these giant shields, 2,000 silver flying javelins suddenly flew out.

The power of these flying javelins is extremely amazing, far from being comparable to all arrows and crossbows, and its lethality can not only completely penetrate the armor of the Southern Han light cavalry, but also make the human bones in the armor break instantly.

For a moment, a terrifying scream sounded in the valley, and the struck cavalry made a strange sound of armor being pierced and bones breaking.

Some cavalrymen and horses were all thrown to the ground and fell to the ground together, and even some cavalrymen who were relatively close to each other could be strung together and shot to the ground!

The pores of Zhuang Fuming's whole body were erected.

What kind of person is the general of the Northern Han Dynasty on the other side! This kind of battle was something he had never seen in his life! Does that man have the power of ghosts?!

In the face of the arrow and crossbow attacks of the Northern Han army before, the cavalry of the Southern Han Dynasty could also be protected by good armor, and there was often a situation where a person could continue to fight without being hurt by several arrows, but the difference between this flying javelin and arrow crossbow was as huge as the difference between rifle bullets and cannonballs. Those who were shot immediately fell and immediately lost all combat abilities.

(c)

After the first flying target attack, Zhuang Fuming's cavalry was killed or wounded by nearly 1/3, and there were fallen horses and screaming dying people everywhere. The entire valley was immediately covered with rivers of blood.

Zhuang Fuming had never experienced a situation where he lost more than 1/3 of his troops in an instant, and his eyes immediately turned red! This army is the work of his life! It's going to be all destroyed here today!

In the blood of the soldiers around him, he shouted with a certain heart of death: "The whole army follows me, and then rush to the valley!" ”

They turned around again and came to the valley mouth. Just as they turned, a second flying javelin attack struck from behind.

The ensuing battle was a nightmare. Zhuang Fuming's troops rushed to the valley mouth, but were blocked back by the rain of arrows and the strong snipers of Wu Shunbu. Then there was the flying target attack behind the giant shield.

If this is the third time, Zhuang Fuming has only more than 1,000 riders left to move.

At this time, the Northern Han cavalry blockaded at the mouth of the valley began to advance with an absolute superiority of forces, forming a sword wall with sabers, compressing them step by step into the valley.

Zhuang Fuming's troops, everyone knows that there is no way to live. In desperation, they lost their battle formation and began their own fierce desperate charge.

Under the attack of the flying javelin wave after wave, there were fewer and fewer of them, and there were more and more corpses under their feet. Some of them charged to the cavalry at the mouth of the valley, some rushed through the rain of arrows on the cliffs on either side, and some slashed desperately at the giant shields that advanced like a castle of steel.

It was not so much a battle as a slaughter.

This desperate battle was over by near noon. The corpses in the valley were layered and rivers of blood were drifting.

In the final battle, the old general Zhuang Fu Ming was killed by two flying javelins, and his entire sternum was broken, and he fell there, his eyes wide open, his chest caving down to his back, and he fell in a strange posture in a pool of blood, his snow-white beard facing the sky.

At the end of the battle, the Northern Han army cleared the battlefield. As a result, more than 12,000 of Zhuang Fuming's cavalry were all killed in the valley. The Northern Han army only suffered more than 100 wounds, and not a single soldier was killed.

It was a 100 percent, absolute, perfect, complete victory. Its shock and impact on the Southern Han army was even stronger than the annihilation of the entire army of Lei Shicheng's army.

When the battle is over, you emerge from behind the Great Shield Battle Array.

You rode into the valley. You look at the pits and valleys of people and the corpses of horses.

You arrived next to Zhuang Fuming's corpse. You ride on your horse and look at the corpse for a while.

You immediately saluted Zhuang Fuming's body.

You say, "Old general, there is no point in losing the battle, in fact, you can choose to surrender." ”

Then you have his body collected and send an envoy to the city of Qianzhou.
