Chapter 74: The Battle of Juyong Pass [Medium]
Li Cunxian smiled, and did not flatter Li Keyong, but said truthfully: "It's hard to say what happened on the battlefield, not to mention that our soldiers and horses are only 36,000 people, which is still a little worse than Li Kuangshou's 40,000 army." But I'm kind of looking forward to fighting that guy named Li Cunhuan. ”
"Li Cunhuan!?" Hearing this name, Li Keyong's face was a little ugly, but he was a hero in the end, so he quickly adjusted his mentality, sighed and said: "It's a pity that this person is not my righteous son, if you have the opportunity, you will capture him alive." I'll see if I can recover this arrogant lone wolf. ”
"Order!" The people on the left and right, including Li Cunxian, heard this, their faces were solemn, and they responded in unison.
At this time, Li Ke rode over with his favorite son, Li Cunxuan, and said with a slightly regretful expression on his face: "Father, I'm afraid your idea will be disappointed this time, Li Kuangshou didn't bring Li Cunhuan out, and even ...... Even Li Cunxiao didn't bring it, but let them guard the border towns to prevent the Khitans from invading. ”
When Li Keyong heard the name Li Cunxiao, a flash of anger involuntarily flashed in his eyes, but when he heard Li Kuangshou's self-destruction of the Great Wall, he couldn't help laughing. "Heaven is evil, you can live, but you can't live if you do it yourself! Ha! Ha! Ha! ”
Although Li Keyong laughed wildly after getting the news, he didn't get carried away. He ordered Li Cunxian to lead the 5,000 Shatuo cavalry on the left flank, and Liu Rengong to lead the infantry at the front of the Chinese army. Li Cunmiao sat in the middle army, while Li Keyong himself sat in the right army, personally commanding 3,000 crow troops and 5,000 infantry.
On Li Kuangshou's side, the iron cavalry was placed in front of the battle array, the cavalry was behind, and the two wings were protected by infantry. If Li Cunhuan is here, he will definitely scold Li Kuangshou**, although the armor iron horse is powerful, it is not invincible.
Li Ke's Chinese army not only had 15,000 infantry, but also was very thick. This is simply not something that only 3,000 armored iron horsemen can break through.
"Attack!" Li Kuangshou's slightly sad face glowed with a crazy look.
"Woo! Woo! Woo! The terrible sound of the trumpet......
"Boom! Boom! Boom! "The uplifting sound of drums......
The two armies in the wasteland gave the signal to attack. The armor iron rider started slowly, but although it was slow, it still gave people a feeling of being overwhelmed by Mount Tai.
Especially Liu Rengong, who directly faced the armored iron horseman, had already greeted Li Ke's relatives with the direct female surname of the eighteenth generation of his ancestors. The only thing he could do now was to stop the charging infantry, his spears pressed down, and the crossbowmen behind him quickly prepared, and then prayed to his ancestors, and prayed again.
"Long! Prosperous! Prosperous! ......" The long muffled thunder sounded, and the armored iron cavalry that had entered the state of charging was undoubtedly even more palpitating, and the reflective armor and sharp spears that were bright in the sunlight undoubtedly gave people the feeling of a steel giant.
The spearmen in front began to scratch, there was no way, the momentum of the armored iron cavalry was too shocking. Liu Rengong asked himself, if he was in the front, I am afraid that he would not be able to perform better than these spearmen.
But what makes Liu Rengong thankful is that he is a general, no longer a small soldier. Liu Rengong immediately asked his own soldiers to press behind the spearmen, and under the pressure of the sharp broadswords behind their backs, the spearmen had to stop scratching, but the battle line did not return to as neat as before, but became like an inferior saw, with uneven teeth.
"Put!" Liu Rengong roared angrily, and the crossbowmen behind him immediately released the bowstring. Countless arrows, I don't know whether they were 10,000 or 100,000, they flew into the sky, crossed a mesmerizing arc, and rushed madly towards the armored iron horseman. Rush out with no relentlessness. In fact, both sides also rushed out with no indomitable speed, whether it was arrows or armored iron horses.
The mounted iron cavalry is not invincible, in the face of prepared, crazy arrows, they will also be injured, especially crossbow arrows, he is more powerful than ordinary bows and arrows, he penetrates the armor more, especially the armor on the war horse, he is more easily penetrated.
Dozens of horses were shot through the armor, and they rolled on the ground with their knights in pain, and the armored iron horsemen behind them trampled over them without hesitation. There is no kindness, no sorrow, everything is like steel, so cold. This is war, if you don't succeed, you will be benevolent!
"Put!" Liu Rengong gave the order again, he didn't think that there would be such a powerful cavalry when he came out. In fact, as a battlefield veteran, Liu Rengong is no stranger to heavy cavalry. Although the heavy cavalry was like a tree that had lost its moisture with the fall of the Sui Dynasty, it had lost its trace in the Middle Tang Dynasty, at least in the Tang Dynasty.
However, Liu Rengong still knew about this expensive military from books and some veterans. That's right, in Liu Rengong's eyes, this is an expensive class, but Liu Rengong didn't think that the mounted iron cavalry was so terrifying, so powerful, such a rain of arrows, not shooting hundreds of horses, Liu Rengong felt that the sun was not rising in the west today. But in the face of the equipped iron horse, the effect is only dozens of horses. couldn't help but make Liu Rengong's heart flood with a touch of terror, and at the same time make his heart crazy.
Li Ke, who was sitting on a jet-black war horse, was shocked and crazy with a difference from Liu Rengong. He was very calm, and he was not the first day he came into contact with the Iron Riders. However, unlike in the past, his defeat was unclear that time, and it did not reflect the terrifying power of the armored iron horse like a bulldozer at all. Today, he wanted to take a closer look, the power of the mounted iron cavalry established by Li Cunhuan, he didn't know whether the mounted iron cavalry was more powerful, or the crow army that swept the Central Plains under his command was more powerful.
Li Cunmiao in the Chinese army is a different feeling, Li Cunmiao is a person who likes to charge in person, he has the style of Tang Taizong, in fact, the object of his worship is also Tang Taizong. Every time he was able to call the shots, he would personally lead the charge with his troops. For an army with such a powerful charge, Li Cunmiao's eyes were hotter than anyone else's, and he longed for the day when he could lead such a cavalry charge. At that time, along the way, there was nothing that could stop him, he was like a rolling iron stream, and there was nothing that could stop him. Li Cunqiao's eyes revealed a look called fascination.
