Chapter 4 A Thousand Horsemen Break the Formation

"Runthorn".

In a flash of white lightning, a clear cheer sounded in the air, lingering for a long time.

In an instant, a blue wind that was invisible to the naked eye blew across the entire battlefield, and then wrapped a thousand fierce iron horses, under the palms of all the Shandan horses, four green clouds slowly floated, and the speed of all the war horses suddenly skyrocketed, and the speed of the charge was twice as fast as just now. It was like a thousand thunderbolts of lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it slammed into the formation of the Guanzhong Army.

"Running Thorn" is a skill unique to the Ranger class, which is only a primary support skill that adds 50% movement speed to the warhorse. Don't underestimate the acceleration of only 50%, which has a role and impact that cannot be underestimated for rushing battles or changing the rhythm of the battlefield. Just think about thousands of war horses, the sudden increase in speed, the powerful visual shock effect, and the amazing cavalry cluster impact ability will make people stunned.

This is only the basic support skill of the Rangers, only when they are promoted to the second level of the Archer or the Heavy Helmet Iron Cavalry, they will start to have active attack skills, and at that time, the combat effectiveness of the Rangers will be greatly improved.

Wu Xi obviously didn't expect the speed of the opponent's cavalry to come so fast, and the light cavalry on both sides still had to complete the bag and detour, but they were already rolling in the hooves and rushing into a stone's throw away.

"Archer, shoot." Less than expected, he waved the flag in his hand and roared with all his might.

The rain of arrows in the sky was like locusts coming all over the world, and the three thousand archers reacted extremely quickly.

But Wu Xi was surprised to find that the first wave of bows and arrows did almost no damage to the fierce iron cavalry who were diving on horseback, and even if a bow and arrow fell on their bodies, they were blocked out of their bodies by their strong armor protection ability. Similarly, the Shandan horse, which was covered in strange rattan armor, barely paused except for a few unlucky horses that were hit in the gaps in the defense.

"Shield."

"Standing gun." There was no chance for him to think about what the reason was, under normal circumstances, there was a time for three arrows, and it had been pressed into one breath, and in the face of the fierce cavalry, Wu Xi was almost a conditioned reflex and made the most correct choice at the moment.

Although the Guanzhong infantry is well equipped, and many of them are also veterans of battlefield fritters, in the face of overwhelming mountains and seas, like a storm and a wave charge, many soldiers still look at it and turn their bodies sideways, not wanting to be knocked into the air and trampled to death under the hooves of the crazy advancing horses. The shield in their hands is not the folding shield that can go directly to the ground of the divine sword soldiers, and the body is not wearing special heavy armor, and the protection ability is not one or two layers worse. In an instant, a thousand rangers broke through the defense, like several extremely sharp awls, fiercely cutting into the pawn camp.

The five Xi ordered a series of orders, intending to encircle, but the second and third waves of the fierce iron cavalry hardly gave the battlefield any time to react, and kept advancing along the gap in the formation, and then rushed again. The weapons in his hands did not kill a few people, but the Guanzhong military formation was completely divided into several sections, and the formation was quickly chaotic.

As the Iron Rider thrust deeper and deeper, the resistance grew, and the surroundings were densely packed with enemies.

Zhao Yun was not afraid, stepped on the horse's pedal, clamped the horse's belly, and the whole person seemed to turn into a cold light, murderous silver spear. Under the wave of the famous weapon, countless gun shadows are like birds in the sky ready to spread their wings and fly, which is dazzling and dizzying; Under the explosion of gunshots, along the way, people turned on their backs, screaming endlessly, blood was flying everywhere, some were pierced by a shot and were cold, some had a hole in their throats and were completely angry, and some just fell soft and fell down when their trachea was gently cut, etc., but all the Guanzhong troops who fell and died in different states, without exception, were killed by a single shot. And Zhao Yun's silver-white outfit was dyed bright red at this time, and the blood was mottled. And the luster is still deepening and aggravating.

Amazing gun speed, amazing Zhao Yun.

The lethality of the spears in the iron riders was also amazing, and under the sound of horses' hooves in unison, along the gap opened by Zhao Yun, everyone raised their guns and rushed straight up, like a raging flood, not only hitting the embankment that had cracked out of the cracks.

Under Hongnongguan, the drums are excited, the horns are ringing, the iron horses are rolling, and the killing is shaking the sky.

Guo Yan slapped the battlements fiercely, his face was a little pale, but he scolded in his mouth: "What's wrong with Wu Xi today? The formation like an iron bucket guarded by Ping said that today only a thousand cavalry will be chiseled through. Could it be that the soldiers have turned into paper paste? "Behind Guo Yan, the generals look at me, I look at you, all of them are a little unbelievable, right now they are like the size of ants, in a large area of soldiers, and the cavalry on the state side, the first wave of impact has been completed, and the main brigade has completely penetrated the defense line, ready to turn around and launch a second wave of charge again. On the other hand, his light cavalry, because of the slow pursuit, was blocked outside the main infantry regiment, which made people cry and laugh.

The first charge, it chiseled through the defense line, disrupting the formation of the Guanzhong army, the second charge, Zhao Yun believed that he would be able to expand the advantage, completely disperse them, and in the third charge, the Guanzhong army was a cattle and sheep to be slaughtered, and let themselves harvest their lives. Zhao Yun clamped his legs and pedaled, and shouted: "Fierce iron ride, rush again." ”

"Rush."

In the second charge, the resistance was significantly less than the last time, and the spears of the Iron Riders began to cause effective damage, and the Guanzhong army began to suffer a lot of casualties.

Guo Yan couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted in a deep voice: "Yang Ding, you immediately lead 10,000 cavalry to kill from the south gate to support Wuxi, hurry up." ”

"Yes" Yang Ding responded, turned around and hurried away.

"Damn, what kind of horse is He Chen's cavalry, the speed is much faster than that of a sweaty BMW. It is no wonder that Wu Xi was caught off guard, and the cavalry on both wings moved a little slower by half a step. Otherwise, how could the other party rush into the big formation so easily. Guo Yan also said with some annoyance.

He Chen was in a relatively open and high place in the rear, and under the stabbing of the generals, he watched intently at the rapidly changing form of the battlefield. Zhao Yun led a thousand fierce iron horses, the iron horses rolled, invincible, in the enemy formation two in and two out, the one who killed was called Tongyu, and couldn't help but be happy. It's so fucking powerful, whether it's Zhao Yun or Fenyi Iron Rider.

"Lord, Guo Yan can't sit still." Zhang Xiu suddenly pointed to the gate of Chengguan and said loudly.

In addition to facing Zhang Ji, the rest of the time, He Chen is quite relieved about this gang's loyalty value of up to 85. He squinted and saw that the two iron gates of Hongnong Jiancheng in the distance had slowly opened, and then a large group of flying cavalry had galloped out.

"Crescent moon, go and rob the other party." He Chen snorted coldly.

"Yes." The crescent moon is the wife and son of Hu Chuquan, leading the five thousand cavalry of the Huns to support it.

"Beat the drums of war."

The momentum of "knock ......" was originally a little weak, but it was once again raised, making people's blood boil, and the high-spirited attack and charge war drums resounded throughout the battlefield.

"Wei Yan, lead the army to attack, don't bite the flesh on Guo Yan, you patrol the night tonight." He Chen's tone was a little joking, but that categorical and unquestionable expression made Wei Yan's heart feel terrified, this state pastor is going to pull out his teeth, under Guo Yan's nose, not only to break up and fight the disabled, but also open his bloody mouth and swallow the Guanzhong army fiercely, as for how much meat he can swallow, it depends on his own ability.

"No." Wei Yan is not afraid of anti-happiness, Zhou Mu is really too appetizing, and he likes to do this.

"All soldiers, charge." Wei Yan took two steps, waved his big hand, and shouted loudly.

Of course, Wei Yan is just making a posture, after He Chen's voice went down, there were already orders on the middle formation platform, playing the banner, except for He Chen's direct subordinates, all the horses will be put into the battlefield.

"Rush." Accompanied by Wei Yan's roar and the sound of war drums rushing straight to the clouds, all the soldiers burst out in unison with a loud rush to kill.

Countless soldiers followed Wei Yan's peerless back, taking firm and brave steps, like a monstrous wave, all the way to Hongnong City. In the high-speed running, the formation of the Bingzhou army is still very neat, all the soldiers show their weapons, the silver light bursts, the murderous spirit, the momentum of moving forward bravely, like the charge of the stormy waves, actually made the long-experienced Guanzhong army, break out in a cold sweat.

Wu Xi has been left with a shadow in his heart since he was chiseled through the defense line by Zhao Yun, plus Yang Ding's cavalry has been intercepted halfway by the Bingzhou side, and then seeing He Chen's main Chinese army team pressing at a crazy speed, a bad feeling has enveloped his whole body.

"General, look ......"

Guo Yan's face was extremely gloomy, and he looked up in the direction pointed by the deputy general, and there was a huge dark cloud in the distance that was blown by a strong wind, and it flew towards Hongnong City at a galloping speed.

"It's the Huchuquan cavalry." Several lieutenants screamed at the same time.

"Grass, what the hell is Li Xuan doing? In the Huchu Spring in the Huayin area, they were able to spare time to support He Chen. At this moment, Guo Yan couldn't control his anger anymore, he couldn't stop scolding, and the whole person almost went crazy.

"Mingjin retreats." Guo Yan finally decisively decided to withdraw his troops, since Zhao Yun broke through the defense line, he felt that this battle was less victorious and more defeated, and now He Chen's main army has all been pressed, plus Huchuquan's tens of thousands of cavalry are cruising on the flank, this battle is estimated to be more victorious and less defeated.

Guo Yan has secretly made up his mind in his heart that after this battle, he will stick to Hongnong City and hang up the battle exemption card, even if he has a certain advantage in troops.

Although the Guanzhong army was not defeated, when it retreated, it was bitten by Zhao Yun's fierce iron horseman, and he kept killing the foot soldiers who fell behind. When the main force of the state was covered and killed, a large number of ready archers frantically poured arrows into the city. And the city gate was not waiting for the soldiers who were still running wildly, and mercilessly closed the two gates.

Yang Ding saw that Guo Yan had already collected his troops, and he also had no intention of fighting, so he took the cavalry around the city and went to the west gate.

He Chen saw that the battle situation had been decided and the goal had been achieved, so he retreated and returned to the village. This battle not only severely damaged the morale of Guo Yan's army, but more importantly, laid a solid and powerful foundation for his follow-up strategy.
