Chapter 291: Crazy? Clever?

"It's going to have to be tough!" A sharp glint flashed in Ashde's eyes, and his slightly hoarse voice was full of unequivocal determination.

"The three cavalry of Oghuz, Anle, and Dujar attack together! All with spears, Tatar warriors! Charge! A cavalryman firmly grasped the red flag that crackled in the wind, and his majestic voice struck in all directions.

The three Tatar rangers, who received the order, all changed their weapons, hung their riding bows in their saddles, and picked up sharp riding spears. When the trumpet sounded, more than 30,000 Tatar rangers charged.

There were only three columns, and they were so dense that the distance between the cavalry and the cavalry was only about half a meter. In other words, the slightest U-turn by a cavalryman can lead to a series of traffic accidents.

Li Cunhuan was also taken aback by the sudden charge of the Tatar rangers. The Ranger, as the name suggests, is a cavalry that fights in action, but at this moment Ashdena will be thrown into the charge. Isn't this a spear with a smooth wooden stick at both ends? Is there a hurry? Is this okay?

But Li Cunhuan pondered for a while, and immediately gasped. Knowing Ashdena's sinister intentions, the former army's Fu Cunshen was now out of touch with the Chinese army, and the Chinese army on the left and right flanks was like a hamburger with pork chops, wrapping the more than 5,000 Tatar rangers of the Namgo tribe. Although there was still a Tatar Ranger of more than 6,000 people united with Huyl and his remnants, there was no big problem for Fu Cunxian's Long March.

But now Ashdena threw in 30,000 Tatar rangers to charge. The former army under Fu Cunxian's command was only 16,000 people. Li Cunhuan did not dare to imagine how the Long March Army would suffer a heavy blow under the iron hooves of 30,000 cavalry.

This situation was not only seen by Li Cunhuan, but also by Fu Cunxian, and even by several generals of the five thousand and famous Tatar rangers who were surrounded in it. Rushed out, but did not leave the Hyele. They all understand what this is all about.

"Support live! Asdena has sent someone to save us! ”

"Brothers, dismount! Resist the attack of the Southern Barbarians! If you support it, you can go back to see your mother-in-law and children! ”

Under the command and encouragement, the besieged MΓΆngke tribe Tatars burst out with unprecedented combat effectiveness, using war horses as a wall, and then relying on bows and arrows to counterattack, resisting step by step.

At the same time, Fu Cunxian was not idle, he quickly ordered the crossbowmen to resist the enemy behind, and the infantry to fight the 30,000 Tatar rangers in front of him. As long as you block the charge of Ashedna's 30,000 cavalry, you will be safe!

Unlike the traditional hoplites, the hoplites of the Andong Army did not carry tower shields. Even if it was a shield, it was nothing more than a round iron shield with a diameter of one and a half feet carried by the first two rows of soldiers. Although the defense against the enemy has decreased in peacetime, the effect is now showing, and the twenty infantry battalions on the left and right compartments reacted extremely quickly. 10,000 hoplites quickly lined up in a field of guns.

The front-row infantry crouched down and plunged the sharp tail of the iron-clad gun into the dirt, and the spear slanted outward. Behind were the spearmen, and the spearmen in the first row lay their spears flat. The spearmen in the second row stretched their spears out of the distance between the spearmen in the first row and the pikemen, and the spearmen in the fourth row in the third row rested their spears on the shoulder armor of the spearmen in front. The shoulder armor is also very special, with a smooth groove in the middle, which does not allow the spearman to feel too much friction when he pierces it. There were also three rows of spearmen in the back, their spears pointed straight into the sky, and if the soldiers in front of them took too much damage, they would come to their aid.

Four rows of spears and spears form a forest of guns that people can't help but fear, densely packed. I'm afraid that's the only thing in the world with the most thorns in the world!

The Tatar rangers could not help but be afraid, they scratched, they slowed down. This is because the Tatar rangers have always fought in a way that harasses the enemy with bows and arrows. When the enemy's formation is chaotic, then smash into it with a scimitar. Although equipped with mounted spears, in the past wars, mounted spears were often just an ornament and were rarely used. And the reason why it is equipped with a spear is more because the spear is a nice decoration.

Among the Tatar magnates, many of them could not help but show a lively expression. They did not approve of this charge. They knew very well the strengths and weaknesses of the Tatar Ranger, but now Ashdena was using the shortcomings of the Tatar Ranger to go head-to-head with Lu Long's spear, which was really not a wise choice. If it weren't for the oath before the expedition, Asdna would have sent 10,000 Tatar Rangers from his headquarters, and they would not have sent Tatar Rangers to charge.

Many Tatar generals couldn't help but think that Ashdena would definitely send his own guards to kill a few typical, and the formation must have been chaotic at this time. They had the opportunity to call back their men and horses and resist Ashdena's orders.

However, at this time, Ashdena made a move that surprised everyone.

Ashdena did not send his own escort to the Tartar Rangers to charge. Instead, a clamp on the horse's belly, the war horse let out a neighing sound full of war intent. Asade's figure galloped out like the wind and like an arrow from a string with the warhorse.

"Dashuai!" Ashdena's guards couldn't help but change their faces and hurriedly shouted. I secretly complained in my heart, if Ashdena was caught, or killed, their poorly protected guards would have to be beheaded one by one, and those who were degraded to slaves would be slaves, and those who were a little beautiful in their families would be accepted by the nobles as maids and concubines, and the worst ones would be slaves. They couldn't help but be nervous about Assterna.

Asdena didn't hear what was going on outside the window, and continued to charge.

Although Fu Cunxian had never seen Ashdena, he saw the war horse under the crotch of the visitor, and the iron armor on his body was only the iron armor of a noble general, and he was also a big fish without asking. He also had the heart to demoralize the enemy, so he ordered the only hundred or so crossbowmen to release their arrows.

The arrows rained down on Ashdena.

But Ashdena was as nimble as a loach in the water, and the war horse flickered left and right, and he couldn't dodge, so he used the triangular shield in his left hand to block it. In just a moment, the shield in Ashde's hand seemed to have turned into a barren grassland, and the arrows were all over the shield, densely packed, and I didn't know whether it was twenty feathered arrows or thirty feathered arrows stuck in it.

If it was an ordinary person, he would have already had a feeling of the aftermath of the catastrophe, and immediately turned his horse's head and retreated. But Ashdena didn't, he glanced at the shield in his hand lightly, and saw that his hand holding the long knife in his right hand quickly twitched a few times on his left arm, and the belt on the shield had been untied, and the shield overgrown with 'weeds' fell off automatically. Asdena quickly drew another shield from the saddle, and the battle seemed to be back to the beginning.

At this time, Fu Cunxian, who was in command, also had to feel sincere admiration for Ashdena. If it weren't for the fact that he was now the commander of the first army, he would definitely ride out and compete with Ashde. If Asid wasn't an enemy, he would have made a good friend of the other party.

Soon, Asdena was already in front of the spear battle array. The speed of the whole person did not decrease, and just when everyone thought that he was going to crash in, the Tatar soldiers couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise. Ashedna's guards were even more nervously clenching the spears in their hands, their eyes wide, eager to bump into Ashdena instead of Ashdena. But under the gaze of everyone, Asdena suddenly grabbed the reins of the horse, and the horse's hooves were less than a foot away from the sharp spear point.

"Thorn!" However, the soldiers of the Long March, although stunned, still did not forget their duties. A roar full of murderous intent came from his mouth, and the spear in his hand stabbed out without hesitation, and the polished spearhead reflected a piercing light in the sunlight. Looking from the direction of the Tatar army, it was as if seven or eight stars had smashed into Asdna.

Ashdena was not afraid, and opened his mouth, and the beard on his mouth and chin stood up for a while, as if he was facing a hedgehog in danger. A roar full of madness came from his mouth. "Kill !!"

The long knife in his hand flew up and down, actually blocking the attack of seven spears, and Ashdena turned his horse's head as if he was patrolling the general of the army. The war horses galloped along the forest of spears, and the long knives and spears in their hands exchanged fierce blows, and from time to time a little brilliant spark bloomed. A crazy roar came out of his mouth, like a madman who takes pleasure in being active on the line of life and death.

After walking about thirty feet, Asdena turned his horse's head violently and broke away from the spear battle array. Return to the battle formation of the Tatar Rangers who had reined in the reins of their horses, and raise their long knives, which were jagged from the blows. A slightly hoarse voice sounded in the loud voice. "See? This knife is laughing at you! You are just too scared to advance by an army like this! You are a disgrace to the nine Tatars! ”

When the Tatar rangers heard this, everyone's faces turned red, and they didn't know whether they were angry or ashamed. Suddenly, a Tatar ranger raised his spear in his hand, rode out on his horse, and roared: "Delechin (Sun God) bless! ”

"To hell with cowardice!" Another Tatar Ranger let out a roar.

"Wash away my cowardice with blood!" This time it was a Tatar nobleman, his face flushed, his arms were bruised, and his voice was full of anger.

"Charge !!"

"Charge !!"

The slowly mixed voices of anger converged into a unified voice, and they all charged without hesitation. The slightly chaotic charge made the formation not more neat than before, but the momentum was as good as before.

The horse's hooves trampled the earth so that they trembled and trembled under the horses' hooves, and the soldiers of the Long March Army couldn't help but look left and right, hoping to find a face from their comrades that would strengthen themselves. But all they saw was a worried look.

At first, some soldiers looked back, and the junior officers such as the head of the capital and the team immediately scolded the soldiers.

Du Hengshu, the deputy commander of the Long March Army, couldn't help but change his face slightly, and his face showed a trace of horror that was difficult to hide. said to Fu Cunxian: "Jie Shuai! Now that the situation is critical, you might as well go to the rear and wait, and the last general will replace the commander to sit in the Chinese army. ”

Fu Cunxian glanced at Du Heng coldly, sat on the stool, and made a big four-pole behind his back, no matter how stormy you are, it is as stable as Mount Tai. "Passing on the commander's military order. Ben Shuai is sitting here today, even if the enemy comes! And if there is a word to retreat from the latter, there will be no forgiveness! ”

Speaking of this, a trace of murderous intent flashed in Du Heng's stunned eyes. Du Heng's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "The last general will go down and supervise the battle!" ”

Fu Cunxian nodded coldly, not knowing what to think.

But at this moment, the Tatar rangers have also been killed, the Tatars are the most bloody, easy to be stimulated, once stimulated, everyone is really not deeply involved in the world. The horse was so crazy that it crashed into the forest of guns like a cannonball, and a Tatar ranger had been pierced through the abdomen by two spears, still unrelentingly stabbing out the riding spear in his hand. A Tatar ranger with his horse under his crotch had died, but still charged with a spear. The fierceness of the Tatars made the Long March Army completely unable to react, and the formation was in disarray, and if it were not for strict training and discipline, it would have collapsed long ago.

From time to time, there were even feathered arrows shot at Fu Cunxian's side, but Fu Cunxian sat upright and did not move. When the soldiers of the Long March Army saw this, they calmed down a little panicked. Although the manager has set an example, the disadvantages have not changed. The front formed by the Long March Army is like a bowstring that has been stretched tightly. Although the Tatar rangers did not break through the guns, the three platoons behind the infantry had already entered the battle, and only two columns were left to support the thin area in some areas, and the generals had already raised their swords at their waists to fight to support. But the subsequent Tatar rangers still charged frantically.

By this time, the spear and the hook and sickle had lost their usefulness, and the soldier could only stiffen against the weapon, pushing the body of his comrade forward. The soldiers in the front row also gritted their teeth and pushed the spear in their hands forward with a resolute face. The Tatar rangers roared wildly, and the spears and scimitars in their hands were also waved wildly.

Although the Tatars had the upper hand in the war, Ashidena was afraid that the war would be at a stalemate in a short time. At the same time, he can also see that this is mainly because the opposing coach is not intimidated by his momentum and is still insisting on resisting. It is precisely because of the commander's example that although his soldiers are afraid, they still support it.

Ashedna couldn't help frowning, and soon a crazy thought popped up in Ashedna's heart.

"Defend the pro-army!" Ashdena roared, and more than a hundred guards came to Ashdena's side. Asdena couldn't help frowning and muttered, "It's too little! ”

After looking left and right, he immediately selected more than three hundred strong Tatar rangers on the spot, and the combined number of Ashedna's guards was about five hundred. Asderna let out a low roar, "Knife! ”

Immediately, one of the guards threw a scimitar with a scabbard, and Asdena took it, drawing its scabbard, revealing the glistening scimitar inside.

"Good knives!" Asdena praised, and threw the scabbard in his hand to the ground.

Asdena rode in front of the five hundred cavalry, looked around at the resolute faces of each of the five hundred cavalry, and a slightly hoarse voice sounded. "You are the bravest warriors of the Tatars! Are you afraid of death? ”

"No!" Five hundred Tatar rangers shouted in unison.

"Good! I'll be there in a moment! Let's make history! Create Victory! Asid nodded, raised his scimitar, and with a wave of his hand, galloped out.

The five hundred Tatar rangers behind followed behind without hesitation. However, what puzzled them was that Ashdena did not lead them to rush towards the enemy, but along the battle line, in the direction of the Sangan River. The Tatar rangers couldn't help but wonder in their hearts, and said to themselves: Could it be that Ashdena is ready to lead us to charge from the river? But the soil by the river is softer, and the charge is discounted. If it is to go anywhere, it is better to insert it from the direction of Xiawu Mountain, although it is not as good as sprinting on the plains, but it is better than charging by the Sanggan River?

"Delechin is with me!" Ashdena, who had already reached the river, suddenly let out a roar.

"Plop!" With a bang, under the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, Ashedna and his men and horses rushed into the rather rapid Sanggan River, and the mixed river water suddenly passed Ashedna's shoulder, only revealing Ashdena's head.

"Quick! Save! Ashdena's guards almost jumped out of their throats, and secretly cried out in their hearts: O almighty Delechin! You let us have such a master! They are all so playful, and they just launched a single charge, but fortunately the enemy does not have many bows and crossbows, and your martial arts are also strong, otherwise you will be called a hedgehog! I'm still jumping into the river today, oh my God! Are you a fur seal living by the sea, or one of those southern barbarians living in the far south of the Yangtze River, will you not be able to swim in the water?

If the northerners are landlubbers, then the steppe people are not even landlubbers, they are just a native dog that can be a powerful man on land. The grasslands are not without water, but they are usually waist-deep, or even worse. And the Sanggan River in front of me is more than three miles wide, and I don't know how deep it is when I look at the bottomless river. Usually I have palpitations at a glance, but now in order to save Ashedna, several Tatars who have been in the water in the puddle can't take care of their swimming skills in half a bucket of water, and just turn over and dismount, ready to jump down to save Ashedna.

And it was at this time that Ashde's whole person suddenly floated up, as if something was supporting Ashdena. A kind of Tatar Ranger couldn't help but be dumbfounded, could it be that Asid had a god to help him? But they quickly reacted! Oh! It turned out to be a war horse under Ashedna's crotch. However, Ashdena is not a steppe man who is not even as good as a landlubber, and he holds the horse's neck with both hands, and has the posture of strangling the war horse. Obviously, Ashde's madness is crazy, but he's still quite afraid of water.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Ashina, the more than 100 guards couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, they felt that in this life, they were not as frightened and paralyzed as today, following Ashina, the master, if you don't fight to death, you will be scared to death.
