Chapter 140: Serial Horses
Gao Lian couldn't help but be angry when he heard Lin Chong scolding the whole door, but he also knew his own ability, and turned around and asked: "Who goes out and takes this thief, and when the thief comes, there will be a heavy reward from the Taiwei?" ”
The commander Yu Zhi also knew that Lin Chong was Gao Yu's henchman, and when he heard this, he said, "The last general will ask for an order." ”
Gao Lian saw that he was one of the two commanders, and he nodded reassuringly: "Okay, this official wishes General Yu success." ”
"Order"
Yu slapped the horse wheel knife and grabbed the battle.
Lin Chong saw that someone dared to stand out for Gao Lian, so he couldn't help but be furious and slapped his horse to meet him.
The two of them couldn't fight for five, Lin Chong shouted violently, and a snake spear stabbed towards Yu Zhixinwo.
Yu Zhi couldn't dodge and was stabbed.
Lin Chong picked Yu Zhi off his horse with a spear and shouted, "Cheap dog thief, come out quickly and die." ”
Gao Lian saw that Lin Chong was so brave, and he didn't dare to go out of battle, so he turned around and asked, "Who else will come out to avenge General Yu?" If you kill Lin Chong, I will reward you with a thousand taels of silver. ”
Another commander in the officer corps, surnamed Wen Shuang, Wenbao, made a spear and rode a yellow horse.
He and Yu Zhi were colleagues when they were in the palace marshal's mansion in Tokyo, and they were later transferred to Gaotang Prefecture by Gao Yu to assist Gao Lian in military training, and they had the best friendship.
Seeing Yu Zhi die under the horse, he was also furious and shouted: "Look at the end of the general to slash this thief." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Gao Lian to reply, he hit the horse and went out of the battle, and where the horse's hooves fell, with a puff of dust, he went straight to Lin Chong.
After Qin Ming went up the mountain, he didn't have any credit, and seeing that Lin Chong had already grabbed the first battle, he didn't care about asking for orders, so he hit his horse and shouted: "Brother take a break, watch me kill this thief!" ”
Lin Chong was about to hit his horse to meet him, but when he heard Qin Ming's shout, he had to restrain his horse again, put away some steel spears, and let Qin Ming go to fight Wen Wenbao.
Qin Ming was also overjoyed when he saw Lin Chong reining in his horse, and he ran past Lin Chong with a horse, and said, "Thank you, brother, for making it complete." ”
Wen Wenbao saw that Qin Ming didn't take himself seriously, and he was also secretly angry, and when the two horses intersected, he stabbed Qin Ming in the heart with a gun in his hand.
"Ding"
Qin Ming's mace swept away, and he swung Wen Wenbao's steel gun away.
Wen Wenbao only felt that his palm hurt, and the steel gun was almost swept away by a stick.
The two turned the horse's head and fought more than ten times.
Qin Ming put a door and let Wen Wenbao's gun come in, and Qin Ming's body was on one side, flashing the steel gun. The mace in his hand swept towards Wen Wenbao's head, which fell in front of him.
Wen Wenbao's moves made him old, and when he wanted to dodge again, he couldn't dodge, and his head was swept squarely. Although he was protected by a helmet, he couldn't bear Qin Ming's stick, and his seven orifices bled and died under the horse, and the horse ran back to his own formation.
"Win"
"Win"
"Win"
Seeing that their leader had won two battles in a row, the soldiers and horses of Liangshan couldn't help but clamor, and their momentum increased a lot.
Gao Lian saw that the leader of Liangshan was strong in martial arts, and the two commanders with the highest martial arts on his side were killed on the spot, how dare he fight again.
At that moment, the whole army was ordered to march in formation.
"Knock"
"Knock"
"Knock"
"Kill"
"Kill"
"Kill"
The war drums sounded dullly at the head of the city, and the soldiers of Gaotang Prefecture also stepped on the drums and pressed towards the Liangshan army.
Chao Gai saw that the soldiers and horses of Gaotang Prefecture were advancing in formation like a crescent moon, and couldn't help asking, "What kind of formation is this?" ”
Hu Yanzhuo said with a smile: "It's just a glaive formation, the whole army is in an arc-shaped configuration, shaped like a crescent moon, it is an asymmetrical formation, and the general's formation is usually located at the bottom of the crescent moon concave. During the battle, focus on attacking the flank, resist the enemy with thick moon rings, and the recess of the crescent moon is the weakest, and only the strong generals dare to use this formation. This Gao Lian thought that he had moved this formation, if he was not very forceful. Then he led hundreds of soldiers and horses to the bottom of the crescent concave, which is the flaw in this array. As long as a brave general leads his troops to break through the Gao Lian Chinese army, and then attacks from behind, he can completely break up the two flanks. But if it is not possible to break through the Chinese army, the two wings may be encircled, and then this army will be encircled. ”
Wu Yong said: "There are many archers on both wings, and if you only send one soldier and horse to attack the Chinese army, the archers on both wings will inevitably intercept it." You might as well send two more troops to feint on both wings and contain the archers on both wings. ”
When Hu Yanzhuo attacked Liangshan, the chain horse did not go into battle, and was captured by the night attack of the Liangshan soldiers and horses. ”
Dong Ping said: "Although the chain horse is not afraid of bows and arrows, it is difficult to change direction, and after breaking through the Chinese army, I am afraid that it will not be able to attack the two wings from behind. Let's use my cavalry to attack the Chinese army. ”
Hu Yanzhuo did not make an inch of success after going up the mountain, so he naturally did not want to give in, and said: "After my chain horse breaks through the Chinese army, I can remove the iron chain and turn into heavy cavalry, and I can also turn around and attack the two wings from behind." ”
Dong Ping smiled: "If your more than 100 chain horses are disbanded, they won't have much impact." ”
When Chao Gai heard this, he said with a smile: "The two generals don't want to fight, so they will first attack the Chinese army with a chain of horses, and after breaking the formation, General Dong Ping will intersperse them with cavalry and attack the two wings." After General Dong broke up the two wings, Li Kui, Jiao Ting, Xiang Chong, and Li Gon led 1,000 regiments of soldiers to attack the left flank, and Lu Zhishen and Wu Song led 1,000 soldiers and horses to attack the right flank. ”
The distribution has been decided, and each general will go and prepare.
Gao Lian watched his soldiers and horses advance in a strict position, and was just about to be proud, only to see the Liangshan Central Army suddenly separate to both sides.
Several rows of horses galloped from behind, horses with vests, only four hooves hung on the ground, people wearing iron armor, only a pair of eyes were exposed, horses were connected by iron chains, there were always ten horses in each row, and the knights on the horses controlled the horses to accelerate slowly.
Gao Lian looked over and saw that the ten war horses actually walked in unison, and a row of war horses swept in a straight line.
"Da Da Da"
When the chain of horses got up to speed, the horses' hooves stepped neatly on the ground, making a dull sound, suppressing the drums on the city wall, and the soldiers and horses of Gaotang Prefecture who were advancing on the drums couldn't help but stagnate.
Gao Lian watched the chain of horses coming straight towards him, and hurriedly shouted: "Order the archers on both wings to attack." ”
The heralds hurried to the flanks and gave orders.
Soon, two arrows rained down on the chain of horses like locusts.
Immediately the knight did not dodge, as if the arrows were moths.
"Ding Ding"
One arrow after another fell on the knight, and with a loud noise, it fell to the ground, and not a single horse was injured.
Gao Lian couldn't hurt the chain horse with a bow and arrow, and couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.
The closer the chain of horses arrived, the momentum of the rampage became even more overwhelming.
Gao Lian looked at the chain horse armed to the teeth, and lost the courage to resist, turned around and fled to the city.
When the three hundred soldiers saw the commander flee, they also fled to the city.
Chao Gai looked at the back and hurriedly said: "Dong Ping led the cavalry to take the opportunity to enter the city." ”
Although Gao Lian's 300 soldiers were quick to see the opportunity, how could they outrun the war horse with two legs, they were soon caught up by the chain horse, or stabbed to death by the horse knight with a spear, or swept down by the iron chain, and then trampled to death by the chain horse behind.
