October 19, flat pine forest, peach water. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Drifting snow overnight, the sky gradually stops, the snow is covered, the pine forest is dressed in bright silver, beautiful, but the deafening drums and trumpets, the flags of hunting and flying and the people shouting horses one after another neigh, breaking the silence of the snow field, the murderous aura of the sky is permeating the world, the pine forest trembles in the cold wind, the snow falls, such as the silver butterflies in the mountains, dancing.

Commanding more than 6,000 infantry troops as the front, he launched a river-crossing attack, seized the tidal flats on the east bank, tore through the enemy's defense line, and opened a channel for the Ma army to cross the river and charge.

"Woo woo ......" the big horn roared, "Woo ......" whistled in the air, and the attack began.

6,000 crossbowmen lined up on the embankment on the west bank, and under the personal command of Dagan Shi Alimen, they launched heavy fire on the tidal flats and river embankments on the east bank.

"Boom ......" arrows soar into the sky, overwhelming, tearing the air of the howling sound into a wave of turbulent sound, thrilling, "boom, ......boom, boom" a round of arrows shot to the sky, rushing to the opposite bank, countless arrows end to end, covering the sky and the sun, black pressure like a sky full of dark clouds, in the white earth against the background, dazzling.

On the east bank, the flags are flying, the drums and trumpets are noisy, the tidal flats and embankments are covered with horses and deer, and the stumbling horses are densely packed like cobwebs, and there are trenches of different depths under them, and countless pointed wooden stakes are also buried in the trenches, and behind the embankment, the battle formation is strict, the armor soldiers are numerous, the pikemen, the knife and axe hands, the crossbowmen, and the horse knights, are lined up in turn, and the murderous spirit is vigorous.

......The dark clouds pressed down, and the arrows of the Turks roared down, covering the tidal flats and embankments in an instant, like pouring rain, endlessly.

On the west bank, "dong dong ......" agitated, "woo woo ......" horns sounded, dozens of command flags flew at the same time, and ......the 800 Turkic brave men with shields on their heads and swords and axes on their heads shouted loudly, jumped out, and rushed to the tidal flats, to the frozen river, and to the enemy position on the east bank without hesitation.

On the east bank, under the banner of the alliance, Zhong Xin stood on his horse, looked at the enemy soldiers who were running the tidal flats on the opposite bank, and slowly raised his right hand.

On the west bank, under the wolf's head banner, Shi Alimen sat on his horse, watched intently as the eight hundred Xuan Feng rushed across the mudflat, and then quickly raised his right hand and swung it down vigorously. Suddenly the trumpets sounded in unison, the flags flew, and the six thousand crossbowmen stopped firing. The dark sky lit up in an instant, the black oppressive arrow cloud dissipated out of thin air, and the piercing howling sound suddenly disappeared, and the heavy murderous aura that made the soul fly away and suffocate was suddenly relieved.

Eight hundred fronts rushed onto the frozen river, their speed and momentum undiminished, like a pack of vicious wolves pounced on their prey, becoming more and more crazy.

On the east bank, Zhong Xin's raised right hand was like a sharp war knife, and it was cut down in the air, "Crossbowman, shoot!" ”

"Knock knock ......" war drums beating, earth-shattering, "boom, boom, boom......" round after round of fierce arrows soared into the sky, over the flying flag, tearing the howling cold wind, black pressure pressed a piece, like locusts covering the earth, rolling up a violent whirlwind, straight to the surface of the river, invincible, invincible.

The eight hundred bravery of the Turks were swallowed up by a rain of arrows that covered the sky and the sun, and the shields held high were like duckweed struggling helplessly, rising and falling in the waves, howling in the storm, and bursting out with the last of their strength before they were destroyed, "Howling...... "They died in struggle, marched forward in roar, stepped on the corpses of robes, stepped on the blood-soaked ice, and went forward one after another, and went forward.......

They rushed to the tidal flats of the east bank and rushed into the enemy's positions.

Under the banner of the alliance, Zhong Xin was furious, and roared, "Kill!" Kill! Kill someone! ”

The drums sounded like thunder, the sound of killing shook the sky, five hundred heavily armed knives and axes, holding black rattan shields, wearing black fish scales and two crotch ridges, wearing black hoods, covered with black tiger face protection, silver neck protection, like a group of fierce beasts rushing out of hell, crossing the embankment, killing into the tidal flats, bloody slaughter.

Shi Alimen was taken aback, dumbfounded, and immediately reacted, raising his hand and wanting to give the order to shoot in all directions, but there were still hundreds of Turkic warriors fighting bloody battles on the tidal flats on the east bank, swearing to die and not retreating, and this order could not be given at all.

"Order the two thousand archers in the front formation, immediately enter the tidal flats, cover the opposite bank, suppress the opponent's arrow formation, and help the second group of attackers to select the front to rush across the river."

After Shi Alimen gave the order, after thinking for a while, he immediately made a decision, and said eagerly to the subordinates around him, "Hurry up, the military situation on the front line has changed, the strength of the enemy army exceeds our expectations, and I am afraid that we will have to pay a greater price for attacking the fortification head-on." In order to reduce casualties, it is recommended to change the strategy of attack, and send more control strings on the left and right flanks, so that we can quickly cross the river and outflank the enemy forces on the east bank while we attract and contain the enemy forces with more fierce attacks on the frontal battlefield, and only wait for the encirclement to be completed, and the enemy forces have no choice but to retreat, so that we can cross the peach water at the minimum cost and quickly advance to the ghost side. ”

The cronie agreed, turned his horse's head, and galloped away, snow mixed with black mud splattering in all directions.

At the same time, the commander of the Tooth Banner Infantry Army, Ashdeba, Kushui, also widened his eyes and looked at the tidal flat position on the opposite bank in disbelief.

The team in front of him with black heavy armor and exuding a terrifying atmosphere is a unique hoplite in Middle-earth, armed to the teeth, and its combat effectiveness is extremely amazing, the Turkic infantry with leather shields and leather armor is not an opponent at all, only passively beaten, and this hoplite with the same prestige as the hoplite cavalry has not appeared on the battlefield for a long, long time, at this time it should be in the capital division of Middle-earth, not in the cold and frozen forests outside the Saiwai.

Hoplites are a "heavy weapon" unique to Middle-earth, and their combat effectiveness is second only to that of hoplites. Heavy cavalry is the most powerful "weapon" in both the north and the south, and its symbol is that all men and horses are equipped with heavy armor, and this heavy armor is called "armor and cavalry equipment". It is surprisingly expensive and difficult to build such a team, but in order to improve one's own strength, it is better to tighten one's belt. Middle-earth has money, there is high-quality armor, but unfortunately there are too few war horses that meet the requirements, and the Turks have a sufficient number of war horses that meet the requirements, but unfortunately there is a lack of iron, less high-grade armor, and even more lack of money, and they can't afford to raise such a luxurious team, so the number of heavy cavalry on both sides of the north and south is very small, and this kind of "heavy weapon" has a lot of restrictions, and the deterrent effect is greater than the actual combat significance, so the north and the south play their own strengths, the Turks have more war horses, and focus on building a horse army, while the Middle Turks have good weapons and equipment, and the number of types of heavy troops is very large, of course, the focus is on building an infantry army, One of the most striking is the creation of hoplites.

The brave and warlike warriors in the army are the main source of heavy infantry troops, they are equipped with heavy armor such as two crotch and Mingguang, and they hold heavy soldiers such as Mo swords and long lances, and their combat power has increased dramatically, and they are like steel giants on the battlefield, invincible. It's just that the disadvantages of hoplites are also obvious, just like the hoplites, no one can stop the frontal fighting, such as rushing to attack the fortifications but it is difficult to do it, and the scope of application is very limited, so the number of hoplites in Middle-earth is not much, and many senior generals in the military regard it as chicken ribs, and it is a pity to abandon it tastelessly, and it is not brought to the expedition, and gradually it has become a "decoration" to scare people, and the heavy cavalry is "displayed" in the Beijing Division, as a luxurious "tool" for Middle-earth to show off its strength to the vassals of the four seas.

However, at this moment, in the peach water of the flat pine forest, on the battlefield of the bloody battle between the Middle-earth rebels and the Turks, the battle has just begun, and the steel giant beast "hoplite" of Middle-earth suddenly appeared, which is incredible, how can this Middle-earth rebel army in front of him be a rabble composed of a group of farmers? Nonsense.

Ashide couldn't help but burst out foul mouth. The people of Middle-earth are so shameless that they use their most elite army to pretend to be rebels to fight in the fortress, digging pits everywhere, and tempting people to be deceived.

However, the arrow is on the bow, and it has to be sent, since the battle has begun, since the tooth banner has made the decision to send troops to Anzhou to stabilize the northeast, and since he is determined to take the ghost side and cut off the road of the Middle Earth people to the north of the weak Luoshui, then this battle must be fought, and the intercepting enemy army on the east bank must be defeated at any cost.

At this time, the Turkic 2,000 archers were rushing to the tidal flats under the order of Shi Alimen, intending to cover the enemy arrow array behind the embankment on the east bank, but this would take time, and at this moment, the Turks on the tidal flat positions on the east bank were brave and brave, under the attack of the Middle-earth hoplites, under the bite of the steel beasts, it was difficult to resist, the heads were flying, blood was everywhere, the severed limbs and stumps were flying all over the sky, and the howls were all over the place, which was unbearable to see.

Asdeba's eyes were splitting with bitterness, and he couldn't watch his fierce subordinates fall in a pool of blood without being indifferent, "Assault! Pick a striker to strike! ”

As he gave an order, the trumpet flags were issued in unison, and the second batch of eight hundred brave men, who had long been uncontrollable, angry, and murderous, rushed towards the frozen river like a tide, and the hoarse shouts resounded through the forest sea in an instant, "Woo, woo......"

At the same time, under the banner of the alliance, Zhong Xin's roar was also extremely high-pitched, "Crossbowman, shoot!" Shoot! Shoot and kill! ”

The roar sounded, the arrows rained down, the sky instantly darkened, and the roaring sound merged into a turbulent wave, setting off shocking waves and overwhelming the sky, as if tearing the soul, making the soul fly away, and the liver and gall were broken.

Five miles away from the embankment on the west bank of Taoshui, the golden wolf's head flew in the air, and the hunting sounded.

Under the banner of Xu, the flag is like a cloud, the strings are controlled like a forest, more than 20,000 soldiers of the horse army are divided into three battle formations on the left, the middle and the right, and the geese are in a queue, like three giant eagles, are about to spread their wings and soar into the sky.

Ashina, dressed in a wool coat, sat on his horse, looked at the heralds speeding back and forth with an expressionless face, listened carefully to the reports of his cronies and subordinates, and remained silent, until the advice of Dagan Shi Alimen came to his ears, his handsome and resolute face showed a trace of surprise, and his right hand raised and stroked the pitch-black and smooth half-foot beard, frowning and falling into deep thought.

After a moment, he turned his eyes to Sunia Ashina Aswin, his eyes inquiring.

Although the commander of the horse army of the tooth banner was also born in the Ashina royal family, but the identity of the concubine limited his career, even if the horse was half a life, the sideburns were gray, and the military exploits were numerous, he could only succumb to the young Ashina's aggressiveness, and the front and back of the saddle were from the left and right, charging for it.

Aswin met the aggressive gaze, bowed his head slightly, and said slowly, "Regardless of whether the elite of the heavy armor in front of you is from the Middle-earth Jingshi or not, but since it appears on the battlefield, it is enough to show the opponent's determination to stick to Taoshui, so it is not difficult to infer that the Middle-earth people should have been counterattacked by the Xi clan with all their strength on the battlefield of Anzhou, and they have no time to clone each other, which is the best opportunity for us to attack the ghost side." This opportunity is fleeting, not to be missed, let alone delayed, once the Middle-earthers divide their forces to meet the enemy, we will be passive, the resistance will be great, and the losses will increase. ”

Ashina groaned a little, suppressing the greed in his heart. The opponent's strength is very strong, and the cost of total annihilation is large, and the ghost side is the primary goal of this battle. Ashina immediately made a decision, "Order, attack left and right, and outflank both flanks." ”
