Chapter 647: Sweaty Horse

Lan Feng saw that the cavalry of the Han army was like a broken bamboo on the carriage, and went straight to their side to kill them, he couldn't help but be shocked, and the glass wine cup in his hand also fell, shattered, and said in a loud voice: "Quick, stop them!" ”

The infantry that had begun to assemble just now had already reacted and rushed forward, but it was difficult to form an effective formation in a hurry, and many long ladders and huge trees for siege were abandoned on the ground. In the face of the Han cavalry, which was in full swing, these infantry were tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. However, so many people rushed forward together, but it also made the impact of the Han cavalry stagnant, and soon fell into a melee.

The cavalry relies most on the impact power, if it is encircled, the combat effectiveness is not much stronger than the infantry, and sometimes even inferior to the infantry. Seeing the Han cavalry and the coalition army fighting together, Lan Feng breathed a sigh of relief, took out the scimitar he carried with him, pointed forward, and said loudly: "Surround them all and kill them all!" ”

But Lan Feng's tone was relieved too early, and the Han cavalry under Liu Xin's command was not comparable to ordinary cavalry. The 3,000 Han light horsemen were like a giant dragon overturning the river and the sea, rushing left and right in the layers of encirclement, killing the allied army and howling wolves. Although soldiers continued to fall from his horse, the soldiers behind him quickly filled his place, and the whole cavalry remained in a neat formation. As long as the team is not cut off, even if they are encircled, they are sure to kill it.

The coalition soldiers had never encountered such powerful cavalry, and seeing their comrades fall one after another under the enemy's sabre, many were already frightened, and the encirclement began to loosen. Lan Feng waved the scimitar in his hand desperately, urging the soldiers forward. Unable to sit still, Cumberin and Gumuki stood up together, and their retinue had already led their horses, and the two of them jumped on their horses together and galloped towards their own ranks. Without their personal press, the Shule and Shache armies would have retreated more quickly.

Liu Xin looked at the fierce battle under the city with a solemn face, and saw that the encirclement that had gradually loosened was tightening again, and his heart couldn't help but tighten. The young soldiers had stayed with him the previous night, but many of them would never return to Middle-earth. The worst thing in cavalry combat is to be encircled, but Liu Xin had to do this. The enemy is outnumbered, and only surprise wins, he is waiting.

Suddenly, a puff of smoke and dust rose on the left and right sides of the enemy formation, and Liu Xin's hanging heart relaxed. Just when the 3,000 cavalry were in a bitter battle, Liu Xin sent two other teams of men and horses to go around the flank of the enemy formation, and he was waiting for these two cavalry to kill. This is Liu Xin's tactics of dividing and attacking together, the enemy's formation was already completely chaotic when besieging the three thousand cavalry, and the ambush soldiers galloping from the left and right sides raised a large cloud of smoke and dust, and it was impossible to judge how many of them were. A cavalry of 3,000 men was enough of a headache for them, and now that two groups of men and horses appeared at once, their morale would be in great confusion.

Liu Xin turned around and said, "Hansheng, it's time for you to go out!" ”

Huang Zhong hugged his fists and said: "The last general will definitely dedicate the head of King Dawan in front of the lord!" ”

The city gate opened again, and Huang Zhong took the lead with a big sword in his hand, followed by a thousand cavalrymen wielding sabers and rushing straight to Lan Feng's carriage.

Lan Feng watched the encirclement gradually tighten, and was thinking that he could destroy this Han cavalry immediately, but suddenly saw that his side was in chaos, and when he was hesitating, he saw Yan Sai running over in a panic, and said: "Oh no, it's not good, the Han people still have countless ambushes from both sides, let's run." ”

At this time, the coalition army was already in chaos, and the cavalry that was surrounded in the heart felt the pressure around them, and took advantage of the situation to kill out.

Seeing this scene, Lan Feng also panicked, and said repeatedly: "Quick, retreat!" ”

His carriage was so large that he could even have his concubines dancing on it, so he had eight horses to pull it. These eight horses are the best horses in Dawan, they are load-bearing, good at running, and the drivers who drive are also one in a hundred. Hearing Lan Feng's order, the coachman quickly turned his horse's head. Despite its size, the carriage turned around in a very short time and headed west.

Huang Zhong watched from a distance as the carriage turned around with difficulty, fled towards the west, and with a wave of his sword, he pursued closely from behind. A group of hundreds of Dawan cavalry rushed over and blocked Huang Zhong's way. Huang Zhong didn't say a word, the big knife slashed left and right, and none of his subordinates joined forces, leaving behind the dead corpses along the way.

Blocked by this group of cavalry, Huang Zhong was dozens of steps away from Lan Feng's carriage. But no matter how good the horse pulling the cart is, and no matter how high the skill of the coachman, the carriage can't outrun the war horse after all, let alone such a huge carriage. In the blink of an eye, Huang Zhong chased dozens of steps closer.

Seeing that his king was in extreme danger, another group of Dawan cavalry surrounded him, and it was inevitable that there would be another fight. After several pursuits, there were no less than a thousand Dawan soldiers who died under the swords of Huang Zhong and his cavalry, and they were getting closer and closer to Lan Feng's carriage.

Lan Feng saw that the situation was not good, jumped on a big Wanliang horse that was driving, waved his scimitar, cut off the rope of the car, and stabbed the back of his backhand, smashing it on the horse's buttocks.

The carriage was originally pulled by eight horses, but suddenly there was one less horse, and the whole carriage lost its balance, even if the rider's skill was high, it was difficult to maneuver, and the carriage ran out crookedly for more than ten steps, and finally overturned in the sand, causing the woman on the carriage to let out a terrible scream, mixed with the shouts and howls around one after another, which was obviously very strange.

Huang Zhong's eyesight was very good, and he had already seen Lan Feng fleeing on horseback, and he rushed past the carriage that had overturned in the sand with a big knife, still chasing closely from behind. But Lan Feng was riding a real sweaty horse, and as the horse galloped all the way, the whole horse had turned red.

In fact, sweaty horses do not really bleed after running, but this kind of horse is originally jujube red or maroon, and the local color is more vivid after sweating, giving people the feeling of bleeding. However, this kind of horse runs quite fast, although it cannot travel thousands of miles a day, it is still no problem to run six or seven hundred miles a day. Although Huang Zhong's mount was also a selected good horse, he couldn't keep up with the speed of the sweaty horse, and he watched the distance between him and Lan Feng become farther and farther away.

Huang Zhong knew that he couldn't catch up, so he strangled the war horse with a "call", hung up the knife, picked up the bow and set up the arrow, the bow pulled the full moon, and the arrow was like lightning, shooting towards Lan Feng's back heart.

At this time, the two sides had already pulled apart more than two hundred steps, and under normal circumstances, even the best strong bow produced by the research institute would be difficult to shoot at this distance. It's a pity that Lan Feng met Huang Zhong, that is the bow god of the Han Dynasty, and this arrow is impartial to Lan Feng's heart. It's just that the distance is too far, and the reason that the end of the strong crossbow can't wear Lu Min is also applicable to the bow god. Lan Feng's body shook, with a feathered arrow stuck in his back, and continued to gallop on his horse. Huang Zhong took the bow and watched the blue seal gradually move away, and finally turned into a small black dot, so he had to sigh and retreat.

At this time, the battle on the battlefield was nearing its end. As soon as Lan Feng fled, the morale of the coalition army was even more dissolved, and the scattered coalition soldiers became a group of lambs to be slaughtered under the back and forth of the Han cavalry of the four routes, and they had no power to fight back at all.

The good training of the Han army showed its effect at this time, although there was no commander directly commanding the scene, the battle of the entire cavalry team was not chaotic at all, everything was according to the usual training, and it was as it should be. Moreover, Liu Xin has always attached importance to the construction of cavalry, and only one lieutenant is set up for every 5,000 infantry in the army, and one lieutenant is set up for every 1,000 cavalry. There were eight captains of the 8,000 cavalry on the battlefield, and these eight captains were the eight temporary commanders at this time, each leading their subordinates to gallop across the country, bringing the mobility and impact of the cavalry to the extreme.

At first, some members of the coalition wanted to resist to the death, but in the face of the powerful Han cavalry, they soon became ghosts under the sword. Seeing the deaths of comrades who got along day and night, the desire of the coalition soldiers to survive gradually took over. Despite the language barrier, many soldiers abandoned their blades and knelt in the sand and kowtowed and begged.

In the end, of the 40,000 allied soldiers, only a few hundred escaped, and nearly 30,000 were captured.

Standing at the head of the city, Saadin witnessed the devastating offensive of the Han cavalry, and couldn't help but respect and fear Liu Xin, and suddenly bowed to the ground and said: "Xiao Wang can see the great Han Tianwei today, and he is willing to live his whole life, only the life of the great Han is obeyed!" ”

Liu Xin didn't expect the war to end so quickly, he was stunned, and then he helped Saadin up, and said with a smile: "As long as you are loyal to the man, Liu will protect you for the rest of your life." Let's go out and see if we have caught any big fish. ”

When the two came to the gate of the city, they saw Huang Zhong flying down, turning over and jumping down, and arched his hand and said: "The last general is incompetent, so Lan Feng has fled, please punish the lord!" ”

Liu Xin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Liu Mou saw it really in the city just now, Hansheng's bravery, no one dared to do it." Lan Feng fled because his horse was fast, but he doesn't blame you. He will run away, and if he can escape for a while, will he still be able to escape for a lifetime? ”

"Thank you, my lord!" Huang Zhong waved behind him and said, "These are the six women on the Lanfeng car, the last general has already asked, two are Lanfeng's concubines, and the other four are his maids, how to deal with it, please publicize it!" ”

Liu Xin said loudly: "Han Sheng has merit in killing the enemy, Saadin is loyal to Han, these women are divided between the two of you." ”

Huang Zhong hurriedly said: "The last general doesn't dare, the last general just wants to give a horse driven by Lan Feng to the last general, and the last general's wish is enough." ”

Saadin also said: "Such a beauty, only adults should be served, Xiao Wang does not dare to think about it." ”
