Chapter 485: Long Song Out of Han Pass

The yellow sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will not be returned if it is not broken. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The Gobi and the desert, the galloping cavalry, the dancing flags, the rolling smoke and dust, the thousands of years of swords and swords, the generosity and tragedy of generations, and the bloody battles and triumphant songs of countless soldiers and soldiers······ All of this makes people who have been here think about it carefully.

The flag of the character "Wang", which symbolizes the general Wang Jin of the Great Ming Dynasty, fluttered on a small hillside, and thousands of cavalry roared from both sides of the hillside to pounce on the panicked prey. Obviously, the vanguard of the Mongol cavalry, which was not very numerous, did not know why the sentry sentry who would usually be released from afar did not have the slightest news, let alone know that the enemy in front of them was the only and strongest main force that the Shence army could use to get out of the fortress.

This cavalry is not only composed of the cavalry of the Shence Army, but also a large number of cavalry of the Tianwu Army and the most elite cavalry of the Praetorian Guard of the Ming Dynasty, many of which are the elite teams of the southern and northern wars when the Ming Dynasty was just established, and even surpassed the cavalry teams temporarily supplemented by Mongolia in terms of personnel quality, after all, Mongolia has gone through several major wars, and the cavalry of the headquarters that can really be used as the main force of the elite and the Mongolian cavalry of the khanates have been almost consumed, and they can only be driven to the shelves, so that the people of Semu and Hui can be added to the cavalry team.

The basic quality of the people of these ethnic groups is far inferior to the Mongols who have been working horseback since childhood, and even many of them are riding horses for the first time in their lives.

What's more, after recovering Hexi, Wang Jin did not hesitate to add a large number of captured Hexi war horses to his team, replacing a group of old war horses and some Mongolian bantam horses with a lot of speed. Hexi has been a place of horse production since ancient times, the Xiongnu were grazing horses under the Qilian Mountain, although now with the spread of the war, most of the pastures have been barren and abandoned, some domesticated horses have even become wild horses again, but in terms of quantity and quality is still better than the original war horses of the Ming army, at that time really surprised Wang Jin, but also made him have a lot of confidence in this expedition to the west.

At least with such a batch of high-quality war horses, it is equivalent to having the capital to advance and retreat freely.

"Kill!" Thousands of Ming cavalry rolled up smoke and dust directly over a sand slope, and quicksand and snow continued to flow along with the horses' hooves, like a sharp blade chopped down in the air, directly killing the flank of the Mongolian cavalry. More cavalry rode their horses upwards slowly, lined up in neat rows, like a reef pressing against the beach from between the sea and the sky.

The Mongolian cavalry slowly retreated into the poplar forest under the dune beam, but the thousands of Ming cavalry killed from the flank were just blocking the retreat of the Mongolian cavalry, facing the main force of the Ming cavalry that pressed up on the front and the elusive elite team behind the small number but fast galloping, the Mongolian cavalry was suddenly confused, but it can be seen that the Mongolian generals under the command still have some skills, and soon the Mongolian cavalry was divided into three roads, and two roads directly killed the Ming army's flank team, Soon after the rest of the team galloped out, it immediately split into two again and attacked the two flanks of the main Ming cavalry.

Although the number of Mongolian cavalry is not large, once they divide their troops in all directions, it will undoubtedly reduce the possibility of the Ming army completely annihilating this team, especially the Mongolian cavalry that is divided into two routes, which can not only contain the main force of the Ming cavalry, but also strive for a first-line opportunity for their own brigade to eliminate the Ming cavalry that is not very numerous.

"It's kind of interesting." Wang Jin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and suddenly drew his sword, "Pro-guard, come with so-and-so!" ”

More than 300 Chinese cavalry guards who were originally watching the battle on the hillside instigated their horses to catch up with Wang Jin's figure. The more than 300 cavalry did not rush into the main force of the Ming cavalry, but made a circle from the side and turned to the team on the left side of the Mongolian cavalry.

This Mongolian cavalry belonging to the Haidu side is only more than 2,000 people in total, and the soldiers are divided into three routes, one of which is divided into two directions, so the Mongolian cavalry that attacked the left flank of the main cavalry of the Ming army is actually only five or six hundred people, these cavalry clenched their sabers, and they did not retreat in the face of an enemy ten times their own, but their enemy was not the main force of the Ming army from far and near like a tumbling wave, but the light cavalry of the Chinese army led by Wang Jin who suddenly appeared in the rear of the flank.

Dense arrows roared out, piercing the backs of the Mongol cavalry, and soon Wang Jin took the lead in the crowd, and the lance in his hand directly knocked out a Mongol centurion. Countless cavalry guards were already roaring past his flanks, charging straight into the crowd. As Wang Jin's personal army, except for a small number of elites who followed Wang Jin's northern and southern campaigns, most of the rest were the cavalry of the Praetorian Guard specially assigned to him by Ye Yingwu.

The Praetorian Guard is the elite selected from the main forces of the country, and it is the last line of defense to protect the royal security, and its combat power can be imagined. Wang Jin originally used them as personal guards, firstly, because the Praetorian Guards had suffered a large loss, and Wang Jin was not easy to explain to Ye Yingwu, and secondly, because Wang Jin also planned to leave this team at the end as a killer weapon.

More than 300 cavalry of the Praetorian Guard broke through the flank of this Mongolian cavalry with a devastating momentum, and the hundreds of Mongolian cavalry that were originally imposing collapsed almost instantly, and the main force of the Ming cavalry that pressed straight up almost did not stop at all, and directly crushed it in the scattered ranks of not a few people left.

After breaking through the enemy's flank, the personal guard cavalry led by Wang Jin turned around and filled the left side of the main cavalry, thus making the left flank of the Ming army, which had fallen behind because it had to deal with another Mongol cavalry team responsible for containment, once again aligned with the right flank.

And the Mongolian cavalry, which was originally only four parts, disappeared one team in the blink of an eye, and even if the other three teams could still maintain their formation, the originally burning blood was basically doused with cold water. Just now, Wang Jin, the famous general who had the most contact with large-scale cavalry battles, took the most elite cavalry team of the Ming Dynasty and staged a textbook-like sound to attack the west, no one would have thought that the main force of the Ming cavalry roaring from the front was just a decoy, and the real killing move was a small team that had been watching the battle from the periphery.

The Mongolian general, who originally thought that he could contain the cavalry of the Ming army through the division of troops, so as to wait for the opportunity to find a breakthrough, made a fatal mistake, he thought that his opponent was still an immature novice with no ability, and he thought that his cavalry could be like the cavalry of the Mongolian headquarters to react without the command of the general and be able to react quickly enough.

However, the cavalry of the Ming army is no longer the stunned young when it was just starting out, from the original 500 cavalry of the Tianwu Army in a hundred battles to the scale of tens of thousands now, which shows the experience of the Ming cavalry in the war. In addition to the fact that a strong army should not be inferior, it must also have its strong will and spiritual inheritance, as well as the combat tactical experience accumulated from one war after another.

The Shence Army was divided out of the Tianwu Army at the beginning, and it was also one of the few absolute main forces of the Ming Dynasty that participated in the Xiangyang War, the Xianchun Northern Expedition, the Yongle Northern Expedition and other major battles.

What's more, the Shence Army also has veterans who have experienced previous wars, and not all of the elite soldiers of each main army have to enter the Praetorian Guard, basically each army will retain a considerable part of the strong pawns, firstly, more recruits can inherit the glory and will of the army through these veterans, and secondly, they can also play a role in turning the tide or deciding the tide in the first battle at a critical time.

The corresponding Mongolian cavalry has consumed too much, countless new pawns have been forcibly replenished, lack enough experience, and basically lead their commanders and centurions to death, and these new pawns have completely lost their fighting spirit and become buzzing headless flies.

"Don't dwell on it, spread out!" Huo Ran, the commander of the other Ming army, raised his horse lance, and thousands of cavalry, under the leadership of their respective heads, quickly dispersed in all directions, and the Mongolian cavalry roaring from both sides was like a heavy hammer hitting the water, and countless splashes were splashing, but in fact the water was not much less. If you look at it from the sky at this time, the skillful and smooth formation of thousands of Ming cavalry is like a flower blooming proudly in the desert wind, the petals of the flowers are unfolded, and the branches of the horse lance reflect the sunlight and snow, shining silver.

It's just that the flowers blooming in this desert wasteland are definitely not just beautiful.

More deadly.

It has to be said that the commander-in-chief of the Mongolian cavalry reacted to the opponents Wang Jin had encountered before, and the Mongolian cavalry that missed a blow quickly advanced in parallel, but kept speeding up the horse. The more than 1,000 cavalry of the Ming army scattered in all directions actually opened a pocket formation around them, but now they have scattered a thousand people to the Mongolian cavalry on each side to exceed their own numbers, but some people are not enough to swallow elephants, if they can't swallow it, they may be swelled.

The oncoming Ming cavalry of the Mongol cavalry slowly reined in their horses and turned their horses. There were only more than 200 people in this direction, but they had to face 2,000 Mongolian cavalry, and it was impossible to stop the Mongol cavalry from attacking except for madmen.

"Fight to the death!" The two Ming soldiers who led the team both shouted in hoarse voices.

"Fight to the death!" Two hundred cavalrymen equalized their horses at the same time.

The Mongolian cavalry is like a black whirlwind, which will rush to the front in an instant, and at this time, whether it is a fire gun or an arrow, it is already difficult to stop, but it will delay the time for the Ming cavalry to speed up the impact. So it's better to rush straight ahead.

The two cavalry met in a narrow way, not so much to test the combat strength and armament of both sides, but to test the willpower of both sides, after all, the galloping horses and huge impact force are enough to offset the advantages brought by all the advanced armaments of this era. The two leaders didn't want to be overwhelmed by the black tide after killing a small number of Mongol cavalry with their bows and firearms.

The cavalry has the pride and dignity of the cavalry, and also has the cavalry's own tactics, even if they die in this yellow sand, they must die well, and die vigorously.

"Kill!" Countless Mongol cavalrymen roared and raised their sabers.

"Kill!" The cavalry of the Ming army in all directions desperately urged the war horses.

"Kill!" The cavalry of the two hundred Ming troops directly inserted into the ranks of the two Mongolian cavalry, and successively divided the troops into two ways under the leadership of the two capital heads, directly cutting off the advance of the Mongolian cavalry.

The sword flickered, and the wind, snow powder, and yellow sand whipped fiercely on the bodies of the men and horses.

The white mist that erupted between the horse's and man's breath, the sound of slashing and slashing, and the neighing of the horse······ This land that the champion Hou Huo Qubing led his Yulin cavalry to gallop thousands of years ago, the land where the great generals Li Shiyun and Hou Junji once rode horses and whips thousands of years ago, and the land where Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing once stepped on it thousands of years ago······

For thousands of years, countless Chinese soldiers have fought and died, and countless loyal souls have turned into a wisp of heroic spirits hovering over the reckless wasteland, hovering between the sun and the blue sky, overlooking this land, overlooking the passers-by who come and go, and also overlooking the Ming and Mongolian cavalry who are fighting here at this moment.

The red flag flutters, and the black flag catches the wind.

One Ming cavalry after another drank under the saber, but the speed of the Mongol cavalry's breakthrough to the west had been completely slowed down. Who would have thought that the 200 crazy Ming cavalry did not have the slightest intention of killing, they just kept waving their horse lances and blades towards the most part of the crowd, intending to use their flesh and blood to block the rolling tide.

Even after being stabbed several times, some Ming cavalry simply ignited the thistle terrestris on their bodies, and died together with the Mongolian cavalry surging up around them in the overwhelming explosion.

The Mongol cavalry had been completely frightened by these madmen, and some of them had even begun to think about retreating, allowing the generals around them to whip and not move forward.

The red flag that symbolizes this small team flutters in the wind, stretching to the fullest, like a soul flag with infinite power, all the Chinese heroes and martyrs hovering in this sky stand silently under this small flag at this moment, watching thousands of years later, Huaxia Erlang once again threw his hot blood on this land, watching this land once again rendered red, red is better than blood, better than fire crimson.

This is the color of the blood of the Han light cavalry soldiers, and the color of the Han dragon flag.

This is the color of the blood of the Datang Modao Battalion, and it is the color of the Datang Dragon Banner.

It is even more the color of the red dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty.

"Broken!" Wang Jin's voice was even a little hoarse in the wind, but he still held his flag and rushed to the front. Left and right, behind him, thousands of Ming cavalry had already killed red eyes. Brother Paozawa won the victory with their blood, and they have no qualifications for blasphemy.

Only do your best to move forward!

The fighting spirit of the Mongolian cavalry, which had already wavered, finally melted in Wang Jin's roar. When the Ming cavalry flanked on both sides converged on the enemy's corpse, there was no longer a single Mongol soldier who could still breathe. These cavalry officers and soldiers of the Ming Army, who watched the brothers in charge of blocking the enemy, die in battle, did not have the slightest intention of showing mercy to their subordinates.

The sun in the sky poured its feeble rays on the blood-stained earth.

The men and horses in the field were panting, and one cavalryman after another stared at each other a little blankly, and there was no joy or anger in their eyes, but their eyes widened, but they were red.

Blood is flowing, horses are neighing, flags are flying.

Wang Jin slowly reined in the war horse on the sand dune beam, the two hundred cavalry just now launched an attack here, in less than a stick of incense, no one can return to the Central Plains alive, they poured their blood here, and buried their bones here.

The wind had not yet blown away the footprints on the dune beams, so Jean Jin looked at them carefully for a long time and said nothing. These footprints symbolize the smiling faces that will never return, they have turned into cold corpses on the battlefield, and their souls have risen to the sky, and countless predecessors have blessed all the predecessors and successors on this ancient battlefield.

A gust of cold wind blew in his face, and Wang Jin subconsciously shivered, looking at the vast wasteland under the sand dunes, and also at the messy battlefield. Suddenly, he remembered that when he was young and studying at Bailuzhou Academy, Mr. had taught Ye Yingwu, Jiang Hao, and the ancient Chinese he had read.

This ancient battlefield is also often covered by three armies!

A capital head rushed up and said in a low voice: "General Qiyu, in front of you is the Hongliu River, and twenty miles further forward is the Star Gorge." ”

"Is it coming?" Wang Jin slowly tightened his grip on the horse's reins.

Behind him, the Absolute Realm was vast, and the wind was roaring.

This battle has just begun! (To be continued.) )
