Under the castle of Lanzhou, it was a sunny morning.

This Khitan cavalry was led by the little general A Mang Jiang Shuzhe.

The team led by Jiang Shuzhe was originally a thousand-strong team of more than 1,000 people, but when fighting the Tang army near Taiyuan, it lost more than 300 horsemen, and now only more than 700 horsemen remain. This time, together with a team of 1,000 people led by another small general named Naye Agum, they went into the mountains and fought in the grass valley, and yesterday morning when the sky was bright, the two teams rushed into Xianzhou together, and in an instant, the entire Xianzhou became a hell on earth.

But Xianzhou has a population of only a few thousand, and the spoils of war are not enough to divide at all.

So Naye Agum and Amang Jiang Shuzhe parted ways, Amang Jiang Shuzhe left two hundred horsemen to guard Xianzhou, and he took five hundred horsemen to fight Lanzhou, and Naye Agum led the full number of more than 1,000 Khitan cavalry south to Shizhou to see what cheap ones could be picked up in the south.

Tang Jun appeared at the foot of the mountain behind, and Ah Mang Jiang Shuzhe also saw it.

He didn't dare to slack off, and immediately ordered the whole formation.

Although the Khitan people are brutal, but the military discipline is extremely strict, the quality of the soldiers is extremely high, from the discovery of the Tang army to the completion of the formation, less than five minutes, everyone has been neatly armored, riding on horses, with their backs to Lanzhou City, aimed at the Tang army carrying all kinds of altars and jars, forming a standard cavalry combat formation.

The Tang army that emerged from the foot of the mountain was quickly exhausted, and there were no thousands of Tang soldiers as imagined, only a few hundred people, and most of them were people pushing carts.

Are they all blind?

When the Tang army foot soldiers saw the Khitan cavalry, shouldn't they have turned around and ran away immediately?

Why are you still pushing dozens of small board cars to this way?

A Mang Jiang Shuzhe has gone through many battles, he is not a reckless man, and there must be demons when things go wrong.

The five hundred Khitan cavalry who were waiting for the battle did not rush over in a swarm, everyone stayed quietly in place, watching the Tang army get closer and closer, and seeing that the heart of Captain Chen Tian on the Tang army's side was also a little drummed.

Doesn't it mean that the Khitans don't have a high IQ?

Didn't it mean that the Khitan cavalry rushed up in a swarm as soon as they saw the Tang army's foot soldiers?

Why is it so quiet today? Could it be that there is a collective diarrhea?

There was no way, the foot soldiers walked slowly, and after waiting for almost half an hour, the Tang army finally got closer, and when there was still a distance of about a kilometer from the Khitan cavalry formation, they stopped.

At this distance, A Mang Jiang Shuzhe finally saw clearly, Nima This is a baggage team with no combat effectiveness!

Although it stands to reason that when the baggage team saw the Khitan cavalry, they should have been frightened and fled, so calm, I am afraid that something must be strange.

But who is Amang Jiang Shuzhe? Khitan general! Smart, cautious and brave captain of the Khitan Thousand People!

Fear is impossible, and after carefully assessing the combat strength of both sides, the clever reckless Jiang Shuzhe finally saw through the clumsy tricks of the Tang army's bluff.

Nima pretending to be a ghost to scare me? Now let you taste the taste of being trampled by the Khitan Iron Horse!

"Wow!"

Commander Jiang finally gave the order to charge, and the Khitan cavalry, who had been waiting impatiently, surged, began to slowly accelerate, and rushed towards the baggage battalion of the Tang army a kilometer away.

Although the heavy engineer battalion led by Chen Tian is mainly engaged in logistics work, General Zhao said that there is a division of labor in the army, but there is no division of labor in wars.

Therefore, the baggage engineer battalion also allocates a certain amount of time for military training on weekdays, and there is a fixed plan for dealing with this typical cavalry charge, and the number of training is also the largest.

More than 300 people pushed more than 50 carts, and this was their mobile fortification.

If you encounter the enemy in the plains, you can stand in a circle and wait for reinforcements, but today's terrain is more favorable, with mountains on the right and rivers on the left, and only a passage of about 100 meters in the middle.

Behind each man hangs a small cloth bag like a simple schoolbag for elementary school students, which contains a stone weighing about ten catties.

Seeing that the Khitan cavalry began to charge, Chen Tian shouted: "Throwing stones." ”

All the people immediately took off the small cloth bag behind their backs and threw it on the nearest cart. Each cart was loaded with deep walls like a truck, and the cloth bags and stones thrown into it by the people quickly turned these carts into heavy camels weighing three or four hundred catties, and between these heavy camels, they were locked and pulled by iron chains!

The construction of mobile fortifications is done in an instant!

After throwing the sack stones, the people immediately ran backwards on their own, revealing the infantry of the engineer battalion behind the mobile fortifications.

The journey of one kilometer is not long, the Khitan cavalry has accelerated to the maximum speed of the sprint, and it is dozens of heavy cavalry in front of them, the eyes of all the Khitan heavy cavalry have become red, and the heavy mace in their hands is waving, ready to completely break the defense line that the Tang soldiers hastily established with their own powerful impact force.

Now, it's up to the cavalry's heavy weapons to break up these stone-filled carts!

However, in fact, they still think too much.

How can these carts loaded with stones, but the sappers of the baggage battalion eat so easily, let the heavy cavalry destroy them? According to the calculation method of the new Zhenwu army, even if you exchange a board car for a Khitan heavy cavalry, it is definitely not cost-effective.

After the people who retreated like a tide ran to the back of the position, the two hundred spearmen who stood in front of them to face the Khitan iron cavalry were 200 spearmen.

Seeing that the Khitan heavy cavalry was about to rush to the front of the Che Formation defense line, Captain Chen Tian shouted:

"First team ready, one, two, three, throw!"

The two hundred spearmen of the Tang army were lined up in a line of forty, a total of five elements, each holding a spear in his hand, but they were not the spearmen routinely set up by the Later Tang army, but spearmen.

With the command of Captain Chen Tian, the Tang soldiers in the first line deftly ran forward three steps, and then threw them hard, and forty spears flew out in the air, with an astonishing sharp howl, smashing into the Khitan heavy cavalry that was running towards them.

Although He Daxian himself also relied heavily on heavy cavalry, he always did not look down on the armor of the Khitan heavy cavalry.

After all, He Daxian is still well-informed, and compared with the authentic heavy cavalry in Europe that is wrapped in iron cans, the Khitan heavy cavalry is just a high-end version of the light cavalry. According to him, spear throwers rarely appeared in wars in eastern countries, so the armor of the Khitan heavy cavalry could be made relatively thin, which was conducive to saving horsepower.

With the thickness and coverage of the armor of the Khitan heavy cavalry, although it is no problem to block the bow and arrow, there is no way to block any spear!

Of the forty spears that flew over, except for two or three that were knocked away by the maces in the hands of the heavy cavalry, and seven or eight spears were missed, the remaining thirty or so spears pierced through the horses or horsemen running in front without exception.

All of a sudden, the Khitan cavalry company had not yet touched the stone cart array in front of them, and the people rolled on their backs.

In fact, there were still more than a dozen Khitan heavy cavalry that were not hit by spears, but He Daxian, who was a cheater, required that some strange holes be drilled in each spear, so that when each spear flew in the air, it made a sharp whistle like a whistle. Forty spears flew over, and the howling was overwhelming, even if they didn't hit anything, but the war horses couldn't bear it, and those who turned their heads to run, those who stood up, and those who turned indiscriminately, were chaotic for a while, and then they collided with each other one after another.

The forty or fifty heavy cavalry running in the front tumbled to the ground in the first round of spear attacks, and the other cavalry who followed behind did not have time to stop, crackling and crashing into each other, and fell a dozen more horses at once.

The others finally pulled the halting horses or avoided the fate of tripping, and the second round of flying spears of the Tang army had already covered them!

A total of five rounds of flying spears were fired, and the open space in front of the car formation was filled with more than 200 Khitan wounded soldiers and wounded war horses, and the screams and screams became one!

The remaining two hundred or so Khitan cavalry, who were not injured, were so frightened that they retreated one after another and ran back a few hundred meters.

The little general A Mang and Jiang Shuzhe were also stunned!

What's going on?

How did a small baggage team suddenly become a spear-thrower with great lethality? This kind of battle has never happened before, and with the IQ of Jiang Shuzhe, it has basically become an unsolvable tactic.

He didn't dare to let the remaining cavalry charge again.

The heavy cavalry was lost, and the rest were light cavalry, and more importantly, the terrifying two hundred spear throwers of the Tang army had already taken the second spear, each with a spear, still lined up in a neat formation, expressionlessly waiting for the Khitan cavalry to come and send him to death!

The two sides were in a stalemate for a few minutes, and to see that the Khitans were not moving, the Tang army's position began to move again.

Behind the spear throwers, more than a dozen crossbowmen turned out, each with three or four people with spears, and they didn't even glance at the panicked Khitan cavalry in the distance, and ran to the front of the Khitan wounded soldiers who were rolling all over the ground, and the seriously injured let the people stab them to death with a few spears, and those who were not seriously injured and could resist were directly shot to death with a crossbow arrow at close range!

A Mang, Jiang Shuzhe's eyes turned red in an instant.

What does Nima mean by this? How dare you kill those poor wounded Khitan soldiers one by one in front of me! Is it true that when the remaining two hundred or so Khitans are waste? Don't you even dare to save your own brother?

A Mang Jiang Shuzhe let out a roar of grief and indignation, and all the Khitan cavalry was also enraged!

"Wow!"

The little general A Mang Jiang Shuzhe personally led the team, and rushed over again with all the Khitan cavalry who were still alive.

At the same time, the unhurried cheering of the only Tang military captain on a horse not far away also drifted in the wind.

"First team ready, one, two, three, throw!"
