Thirty miles west of Su, the capital of Dongcao, is the junction of Dongcao and Zhongcao.

Thousands of cavalry split into two sides and slammed into each other.

This pair of war cavalry was the 500 light cavalry of the Anxi Army led by Bai Xiaode and the 600 elite sentinels of Dashi who went to Dongcao to inquire about the situation on the order of Qi Yade. The 500 light horsemen led by Bai Xiaode, after rescuing the family members, camped in place and rested for one night, and the next morning, under the leadership of Bai Xiaode, they took on the task of blocking the road. But if there is a big cannibal in black who escapes from the east, one is counted as one, and all of them are ghosts. Most of the people surnamed Zhaowu who fled west disarmed and surrendered at the first time, and some of them spontaneously became auxiliary troops of the Anxi army, while others sent them home.

Their opponent, the six hundred elite sentinels of the Great Food, set off early in the morning, galloped for hundreds of miles, and finally found the figure of the Anxi army sentry cavalry on the border of Zhongcao, and then chased them all the way. After Bai Xiaode got the news, he immediately ordered the auxiliary army of the Nine Kingdoms of Zhaowu to withdraw to Su Xiangshana with the spoils of war first, and he led 500 Anxi troops to block the enemy.

According to Bai Xiaode's plan, the Great Food Cavalry must have been rushing for a morning, but most of the time on his side was waiting for the rabbit, waiting for work, and the physical strength of the war horse under the crotch should be very advantageous. His plan was to fight and go, lure the enemy to chase after him, and wait until the horsepower of the Great Eater cavalry was exhausted, and then turn back and attack hard, and the battle could be won. What he didn't expect was that the endurance of the Arabian horse of Dashi was so good and fast, and it soon brought the two sides closer and closer, but the horsepower was still abundant.

Sure enough, it is the best war horse in the world, Captain Xiao is not wrong!

Seeing that the Great Eclipse cavalry was getting closer and closer, Bai Xiaode simply ordered to turn back and hedge with the Great Eclipse cavalry. The Great Eclipse Cavalry chased too quickly, but the formation was a little scattered at this time. Seeing the Anxi army returning to the formation, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and quickly slowed down and straightened the queue a little. Then an accelerated charge to crush the enemy on the opposite side, at least that's what most of the Great Eater cavalry thought.

At this time, the Anxi army took the lead in tidying up the formation, and in Bai Xiaode's loud shouting, like the tide of the embankment, it rushed towards the Great Food Cavalry who was still in the whole team. In the process of charging, two small detachments were also divided on the left and right sides of the Anxi Army, bending bows and arrows, preparing to pass around the Great Eclipse Army formation, and attack the Great Eclipse Cavalry with bows and arrows from the flanks and back.

And the Great Food Cavalry didn't care about rectifying the queue at this time, and also kicked the horse's belly frantically and crashed head-on. The piercing men and horses collided violently, and the sound of swords clashing suddenly sounded, followed by the chaotic sound of people shouting and neighing, and swords and guns entering the flesh. More than half of the vanguard soldiers on both sides suddenly fell off their horses at the same time, almost exchanging their lives for their lives, and at the same time you stabbed me with a spear, I also slashed you, and the two of them grabbed a spear shaft and fell off the horse together. The knights who rushed up from behind were tightly huddled together, shouting and fighting hard.

Just one collision made the two warring sides less willing to underestimate the enemy. The Great Eclipse Cavalry marveled at the swiftness and proper dispatch of the Anxi Army; The Anxi army was amazed by the swiftness of the horses of the Great Eclipse Cavalry, and the scale armor on his body was like paper paste in front of the Damascus scimitar of the Great Eclipse Cavalry. At the same time, the two sides praised each other's resolute fighting spirit and fierceness and fearlessness, and for a time they had a pleasant feeling of meeting their opponents.

It is no wonder that the Anxi Army and the Great Food Army have been galloping and invincible on their respective battlefields for more than ten years, and they both think that they are invincible. And now, these two invincible divisions have finally collided head-on. In a hedging, the exchange ratio between the two sides is almost one-to-one.

However, at this time, the two wings of the Anxi Army's split archers finally moved in place, and began to inflict a lot of damage on the flanks and rear of the Great Food Army Formation with bows and arrows. Both sides were light cavalry, and the Anxi army also wore a layer of scale armor, but the Great Food Cavalry barely wore armor.

Perhaps because the Damascus scimitar was too sharp, it couldn't resist the scimitar when it was thin, and it became a heavy cavalry when it was thick, and it couldn't give full play to the advantage of being fast, so it didn't wear it at all, and the defense only relied on the round shield of the left arm.

But at this time, their round shields were mainly used to defend against the spears and horizontal knives in the front. There was almost no protection behind it, and it was displayed naked in front of the arrows of the Anxi archers.

An overwhelming round of feather arrows struck, and a large piece of the flank and rear of the Great Food Army Formation suddenly fell, crackling and falling off the horse like dumplings. Bai Xiaode has an order, shoot people not horses, kill all the big cannibals, these war horses are ours.

The sudden rain of arrows struck, and the Great Eclipse Riding Array was suddenly a little chaotic. But this elite cavalry of the Great Food is an elite soldier in a hundred battles after all, and it has its own sharp spirit. Their commander, Zamal, immediately ordered to spread his wings and repel the Ansey army, which had gone around the flanks and behind to fire arrows.

The Anxi archers were also not in love with war, and while retreating, they counterattacked the pursuing Great Eclipse cavalry with the cavalry of Eight Buckets. But at this time, the effect is obviously not as good as just now, first, the speed of the Great Eater Cavalry is too fast, and it is too late to aim, and second, this time the opponent has a mounted shield defense. More than a hundred cavalry archers, firing two rounds of feather arrows, shot less than twenty large food cavalry.

Bai Xiaode brandished two iron short spears with both hands, fighting at the front of the team, the iron spears flew up and down, and for a while he didn't know how many enemies he had provoked in front of him, and how many heads of the Great Cavalry had been smashed. His equestrian skills are even more superb than everyone present. Purely using his legs to control the horse, in this small space, he can come and go freely. Wherever his subordinates are in danger and where they are intractable, he will appear and kill the enemy in an instant to relieve his teammates. Then continue to patrol the battlefield and appear where it should be at all times.

When he saw Da Shi detaching his cavalry to pursue the archers of the Anxi army, he immediately shouted loudly for them to retreat. He gave a loud order, telling his officers to gather their ranks, stabilize the formation, separate the two wings, merge with the retreating archers, and slowly retreat.

The eyes of the Great Food Army were suddenly empty, but they did not have this ability to act for a while, plus the corpses of the soldiers and war horses on both sides in front of the battle, and the obstruction of the ownerless war horses. There was no way to pursue for a while, and those who had just been separated to pursue the enemy had to stop the pursuit when they saw that the opponent's archers had already joined the brigade.

In the short battle just now, both sides showed the highest combat power. In comparison, the Anxi army still has a slight advantage. The Anxi light cavalry was originally a hundred fewer than the Great Food Cavalry, and they relied on sorting out the formation first, launching the charge first, taking advantage of a slight advantage, and then distributing more than 100 archers. With fewer people and more people, it is a one-to-one exchange ratio. And the two rounds of arrow rain blows of the archers who went around the side and behind them almost unharmed, harvesting the lives of almost a hundred cannibal cavalrymen.

By this time, the number of people on both sides was basically the same, a little over 400 to a little over 400.

The two wings of the An'an army separated, retreated more than a hundred paces, and regrouped. And the Great Eclipse Cavalry, who had already suffered a loss, also bypassed the battlefield just now at this time, re-lined up, and prepared to fight again!

After a fight, everyone's chests rose and fell, panting heavily, and many people were sweating all over their heads, and no one bothered to wipe it, just staring at the opponent's army formation viciously.

Bai Xiaode sat on the horse, also staring at the opponent's military formation, he spat viciously, and scolded loudly: "Fuck, these big dogs are even more vicious than they imagined, they are all not afraid of death, just like beating chicken blood." No wonder Captain Xiao has said several times that they are not weaker than us, and he wants me to deal with it carefully! ”

As soon as he spoke, several officers immediately chimed in.

"Who said no, he is not afraid of death than the Tibetan barbarians. It's been a long time since I've met an opponent like this! ”

"Bullshit, what's the matter if you're not afraid of death, in a battle, they have a hundred more people than us, and they haven't died more than us. There is nothing to fear about these big dogs, but their horses are really fast and have strong endurance; And his scimitar, it's really sharp, Captain Bai, you see, my bright light armor can't stop the other party's knife, and it's half an inch into the flesh. ”

"I don't think so, they suffered a little loss just now, they were not prepared, and they were caught off guard. This time they are now in formation, and they are wary of our archers again. If we continue to fight, I'm afraid we won't be able to please us! ”

A junior officer suggested along with this: "Captain Bai, let's retreat, I see that their horsepower is almost consumed, and they may not be able to catch up with us." It really doesn't work, we can still use the method taught by Captain Xiao to retreat to the side of the gravel, they can't outrun us. ”

Bai Xiaode turned his head and glared at him, and his tone was very cold: "You can't retreat!" When did our Anxi army retreat before defeating the enemy? Over the years, our Anxi army has defeated one enemy after another, including Turks, Turks, and Jiuguohu, and finally defeated Tibet. Now our opponent is only one big eater, and they have won all kinds of battles over the years, and now is the time when their momentum is at its peak. ”

"If at this time, as soon as the battle is fought, we will retreat, it will only increase their morale, their invincibility will be even greater, and the next time they meet our Anxi army, they will be even more afraid of us, more fearless of death, and they will fight more fiercely and fiercely! And as soon as we retreat, it is equivalent to admitting defeat in front of them, admitting that we cannot defeat them at once, our invincibility will be damaged, our spirit will be frustrated, and the next time we see them, we will be more and more afraid to fight! ”

"Therefore, not only can we not retreat, but we can't even lure the enemy to gather and annihilate. Now what we have to do is to defeat them head-on. Let them know who is the real invincible division in this place! We just want to beat them once, so that they will not dare to fight so fiercely and so hard next time they see us next time; Let these big dogs be scared and tremble the next time they see our Anxi Army! ”

"Now, rush with me and kill them all!"
