Chapter 700: The Han and Tang Dynasties are heroic, and the sword array is like a mountain
It was temporarily decided to add a change, ahem, there is still a chapter after the end. [Full text reading]
――――"Brother, are you okay, you should answer me, brother!" ”
Although the shield array in front of him was shattered; Although there are many fewer comrades around him, the gun array has become a little sparse; Although there was still a rain of arrows falling on his head from time to time, or knocking on the iron armor on his body, or causing the comrades around him to fall down, including his brother, so that his call was already crying.
But Bao Deli's spear assassination action is still meticulous, just like when he usually practiced in Xiyuan.
"What are you crying about, I'm alive and well...... "After a long while, Bao Deli finally heard a response, his voice was a little weak, but his tone was the same as usual, still so straightforward, "However, if you take two steps back, then I will really die." ”
"Who's going to quit? We are the guards of the Son of Heaven, and there is no retreat! Bao Deli added a little more strength to his feet, and when he heard the movement, his brother fell two or three steps behind him, and he was already at the forefront, if he retreated, his brother would be trampled to death by the swarming captives, even if he was not by himself.
"Well, the brothers resist, the Tartars are dying, their momentum is not as fierce as just now."
The plate armor is indeed very strong, but in order to save the physical strength of the pikemen, the armor on their bodies is not full body armor, but only half body, so the armor on Bao Dehui's body is not damaged, but he still fell from the arrow.
There were only a few wounded soldiers like him, and the main casualties of the Ming army still came from the impact of the captives, or the blunt weapons such as iron bones and maces in the hands of the Tartars.
However, this kind of attack is also very burdensome for the attacker itself, especially since the captive cavalry is still covering the charge with the fire of the Divine Arm Bow.
Over time, the first two thousand troops had been lost, followed by cavalry from various tribes. Their equipment was much worse than that of the real King's Tent cavalry, and they could only be regarded as light cavalry, and although their desperate strength was undiminished, they put much less pressure on the Guard.
"Even if it's as fierce as just now, it's nothing, the brothers are all fine, let them die as many as the Tartars come!" Seeing that the eldest brother was fine, Bao Deli's spirit rose again.
"Rumbling ......" At this moment, there was a rumbling of hooves in front of the formation, and the tribal cavalry attacked ineffectively, and the little prince couldn't hold it back, and pressed the remaining elite of the king's tent.
At the same time, as if it was an echo, behind the military formation, there was also the sound of horses' hooves, and some soldiers standing in the back turned their heads to look, and were shocked to find that there were actually enemies killed behind them, and the scale was not under the cavalry in front of them.
"Oh no......" In the earth-shattering shouting and killing, the front of the guards suddenly quieted down, and the soldiers were a little dazed...... Could it be that the first battle since the expansion of the Guards was lost like this?
Suddenly, in the Central Army Division, a big flag rose into the air, facing the fierce long wind, standing proudly, and a big 'mountain' on it seemed to tell the soldiers that the army was as stable as a mountain, and the victory was in hand.
Immediately, before the cheers could be heard, another flag was also erected, and unlike the previous one-word flag, this one was embroidered with pictures. It was a nine-clawed golden dragon, the dragon's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and it was smiling proudly, like someone with a hippie smile, and the dragon's claws were full of all kinds of things...... Although it is also a yellow dragon flag, this flag is not the same thing as the five-clawed golden dragon flag that symbolizes royal orthodoxy, even the most uneducated ordinary people can judge in one photo, this flag has nothing to do with the majesty of the Son of Heaven.
However, this flag was erected higher than the other military flags, even above the real Yellow Dragon Flag, and the reaction caused by this flag was far above the other flags. The guards, who had been silent all along, shouting only a few slogans occasionally, were stunned for a moment, and suddenly erupted into cheers like a flash flood and tsunami.
This flag has a proper name, that is: the emperor's Yellow Dragon Banner. If you see this flag in the capital, it proves that the emperor has appeared in a certain event; Seeing this flag on the battlefield can only mean one thing, the Holy Driver is on the front line, and it is the front line.
Hou Ye will erect this flag, which is to tell all the soldiers that the emperor is with everyone!
"The emperor has gone to guard the back road for everyone!" Bodeli shouted excitedly.
"The emperor is in the Mo knife team, and the emperor himself has gone into battle with a knife." His brother struggled desperately, trying to stand up, and the emperor was always with everyone, even in such a critical moment. Countless wounded soldiers who were still in front of the battle and did not have time to be transported down made similar actions to him.
"Hooray, hooray, hooray!" The other slogans are weak, and only these two words can slightly vent the excitement in the hearts of the soldiers; Only by holding the weapons in their hands and killing all the enemies in front of them can they calm their agitated moods; Only by moving forward bravely can we stop the tears in our eyes.
"For the king's forerunner, vigorously and resolutely!
For the country's wings, such as the prosperity of the forest!
Hoe and annihilate the Kou, in full swing!
Guarding the Son of Heaven, immobile as a mountain! ”
The murderous aura that rushed to his face shocked the little prince. Since the start of the war, the Ming army has been in a defensive state, and he is also familiar with turning a blind eye, whether it is a gun array or a strong crossbow, the Ming army's tactics are only suitable for defense, but he didn't expect that as soon as the strange flag was raised, the Ming army's large array actually moved.
He was a little dazed, even he, an uncivilized steppe man, could see that the flag had no serious meaning from the inside out, but how could it arouse such morale? In the case of heavy casualties, the infantry counterattacked the cavalry!
No, not only the infantry, but also the cavalry of the Ming army moved!
"Want to die? Then fulfill them, Ben Khan does not believe in this evil sect! Tell Usu and Eto to be sure to entangle each other's heavy cavalry! The little prince roared and urged his horse to throw the last of his horse's strength into battle.
…… The prototype of the Mo knife was the 'beryllium' of the Qin army, that is, a kind of spear with an ultra-long blade, and the Han Dynasty also had something similar, called the 'horse sword', and finally developed to the extreme in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, and the Mo knife also became a nightmare for the Turks and other nomads at that time.
This weapon is specially used against cavalry, and the hoplites are armed with swords like a wall array, and when advancing as a whole, including cavalry, any other melee unit is a floating cloud. As long as Mo Dao Hand didn't run out of strength, no one could wait to stand in front of them, as if it was a moving mountain.
Therefore, the mountain flag is the order flag for the Mo sword soldiers to go out of battle.
There are also two restrictions on the use of Mo knives, one is for people, the heavy blade is more than one meter long, and the weight of Mo knives can be imagined; On this basis, Mo Dao Hand also wears full body armor, even if the plate armor is lighter than the armor such as fish scale armor, it is more than 20 catties.
Fighting with such equipment is definitely not possible without being strong to a certain extent. And the Guard's Mo Knife Soldier, to a certain extent, can be said to be an upgraded version of the baseball soldier, and the skill of using a bat against the enemy is similar, although it can also stab, but the most powerful move to exert the power of the Mo knife is the two styles of slashing.
Those who can join the Modao team are all selected from the guards, and the most of them are the original three thousand Xuanfu disciples, and half of the five thousand Modao hands are selected from those three thousand.
These 3,000 people can be said to be the descendants of Zhengde, and the soldiers in the front are so excited, and the Mo swordsmen who realize that the Holy Driver is already in their queue are even more excited. For them, in addition to defending their home and country, this war also has an extraordinary significance, that is, revenge.
The heroic souls on the banks of the Shengchuan River are not far away, in their opinion, the emperor pursued the Tartars all the way, just to give them this breath, and now, it is finally time for them to go out, in the face of the surging Warat cavalry, they have no fear, head-on.
...... "What kind of soldier is this?" Why are they so strange that they actually come up with it, do they want to fight against Ben Khan? The fire sieve was very surprised, seeing that the other party was dressed like a tin can, he also wondered if he should go around and attack the other party's weakness. He's here to pick up the bargain, not to fight hard.
"The Ming army's strong crossbows are powerful, and the gun array is also very strict, what is strange about these soldiers, the villain doesn't know." The spy who came to report and watch the battle in advance shook his head, "The front of the Ming army has already begun to move, otherwise we will retreat first, and then go around in a circle?" ”
"Forget it, it's too late now, just rush over, it's just a few thousand infantry, it's just a little thicker." Huo Sieve gritted his teeth, in his opinion, heavy crossbows and heavy cavalry, the trump cards of the Ming army were obviously used in front, and this heavy infantry should be delaying time.
It was not unreasonable for him to think so, the spearmen of the Guards were also heavy infantry wearing plate armor, except for the weapons in their hands, they were not much different from Mo Daomen. Now that the speed of his cavalry has added up, instead of wasting time and horsepower to go around in circles, it is better to fight for some losses and rush forward.
"Kill!" The little emperor of the Ming Dynasty was really rich, which shows how beautiful it is to enter the Central Plains.
"Kill!" The Warat cavalry was full of ambition, the Ming army and the Tatars were both defeated, and they came to pick up the bargain, is there a better fighter than this? The glory of our ancestors will be restored by our Warat people.
Thousands of horses galloping, torrents rushing.
The soldiers of the Guards are wearing helmets, and there are masks on their faces, only their eyes are exposed, so the Warat cavalry can't see the expressions of the Qing army, they can only see the light of hatred revealed in the firm eyes, but they don't care, in the Central Plains, they have seen more of this kind of gaze, but what can they do with hatred, and in the end they don't have to succumb to the butcher's knife?
The cavalry in the front row vigorously waved the mace and other blunt weapons in their hands, and the great god shouted; The cavalry in the rear row let out a rain of arrows, which landed on the plate armor of the Ming army, and a crisp jingle sounded. The Ming army, however, was still silent and moved forward slowly.
And then...... The Warat cavalry crashed into a wall, and perhaps, it was more like a mountain!
