Chapter 189: Mutual Assault

"General! Don't get on! It's really going to die! The frightened Qiang soldiers grabbed Pound's arm, ignoring the splashing of blood on his body, pleading bitterly, and the sad voice made Pound even more upset; Is it an attack? Preserving the hope of a victorious and safe withdrawal of the Xiliang Army? Still is... Remove? Preserving the hope of life for these people in front of you?

In the end, he chose to sacrifice a small number of people and save the majority, that is, to continue the attack; Hardening his heart, Pang De kicked the Qiang soldier holding his arm to the side, remounted his war horse, and shouted hoarsely: "Those who want to follow me!" Don't be stingy with your life! ", the action-oriented Pound has a rare handful of enthusiasm, full of enthusiastic roars, calling for the fighting spirit of the soldiers around him;" General——! The Qiang soldiers wiped their tears and rode on their horses, calling for their companions to fight side by side with Pound; A general should have set an example, especially the current Pound, who still has a few feathered arrows in his body; This kind of desperate Saburo behavior is not admired by Li Yu, the reason is that he is a general, who has to control the overall situation and command the battle; Of course, there are times when he will also advocate this kind of behavior, and that is when his side is at a disadvantage and cannot open the situation for a long time; At the moment, Pound's approach is right!

It seems that there should be nothing wrong with Ma Teng in commanding a normal command operation and attacking the weak flanks of the place, but the positions on both sides of Cao's army are full of shieldmen and archers, and when the enemy rushes in front of them, these archers can also immediately turn into pikemen!

Feathered arrows can greatly kill the hussars, and can also slow down the impact of their galloping, then the shield man's interception, the spearman's thrust... The flank positions of the Cao army were soon covered with corpses, which would also form a new barrier; Pound led the troops to attack several times in a row, but they were stubbornly pushed back by Cao's army, no matter how he took the lead, no matter how much he shouted and scolded, he could not stop the rout; This time he charged with a mortal mentality, and he knew in his heart that this was also the last charge; Win! It will affect the decisive battle of the whole army! Defeated! The flank cavalry broke and fled, affecting the overall combat form; "Shoot all the arrows!" The colonel who commanded before the battle shouted loudly, in fact, there was no need for him to say, the soldiers would do the same, because they did not carry many arrows, a dozen per person, not even twenty, because there seemed to be no quiver at this time; After two rounds of arrows, the soldiers of the Cao army abandoned their bows and guns and waited for the battle.........

……

The flank form is precarious, and the frontal battlefield is not optimistic, Li Yu sighed in his heart that he had miscalculated, if he hadn't chosen the old department of the Xiliang Border Army to surrender, this sudden decisive battle would have been defeated long ago; He made several mistakes, first, he underestimated the combat effectiveness of Ma Teng and his military horses, he thought that the psychological pressure for many days in a row would make them collapse, but when these people were really fighting with him, those psychological fears were gone; secondly, he underestimated the mobility of the light cavalry, and in a moment of excitement, he forced Ma Teng too much, and he turned around and bitten him, it was impossible to return to the big camp, and the speed of the light cavalry was enough to bite them, and did not give them a chance to turn around; Because of this, there was a sudden decisive battle; Fortunately, Li Yu was also prepared in advance, prepared enough archers, and the army he chose was very important, and he had rich experience in fighting with cavalry, which was the reason why he could fight on a par with Ma Teng, you know, the enemy on the opposite side was still very considerable in number! That's 20,000 or 30,000 more troops than him!

It's useless to say anything now, you can only stand up, see who can survive, see who can stabilize the military spirit more, and see who is more resilient! Only by boiling the spirit of one side to the point of collapse can this war be decided!

The duel of the cavalry is cruel, as long as you are careless, you fall off the horse, and the end is not the head is cut, that is, you are trampled by the horse and die, whether it is your own horse or the opponent's horse, you can't stop in the state of charge; It's not the first time Li Yu has commanded the army to fight, but this time there is no fierce general around him to support him, at this time his hands are a little trembling, and cold sweat can't stop breaking out, but he still stands motionless on the wheel, coldly commanding his soldiers to die... No! It's to kill the enemy!

"The third team! Above! Where the flag was waved, smoke and dust were everywhere, the war drums were excited, and the cavalry with a tsunami of mountains and tsunamis once again rushed out from behind Li Yu; The tactics of adding fuel are known as taboos, but we also have to see how to make them, the location of the decisive battle is not open in terms of terrain, and can only open a front of about 3,000 men and horses, and this front will be divided into the Chinese army and two wings, and tens of thousands of military horses can not all be put into the battlefield, so it will be crowded into a ball, not to mention the combat effectiveness, and it is easy to cause chaos; It is precisely because of this insight that Li Yu dared to play the "refueling tactic", and every time he invested seven or eight thousand cavalry troops, he could not only ensure that the Cao army that "touched the combat area" would not fall behind, but also increase the impact force, and constantly hit the stubborn stone of Ma Teng's army like a wave; The whistling cavalry rushed into the formation of Ma Teng's army again, tore open a big hole, and constantly stimulated Ma Teng's heart, he did not have such a flexible mind as Li Yu, so he directly commanded the military horses to rush out, and fought for his life as if he did not leave a way back, but the terrain did not allow this kind of cavalry battle of more than 100,000 at all, and in terms of tactics, Ma Teng suffered a loss; "Meng Qi! I'm going to attack the right flank of Cao's army! Stabilize the Chinese army! While secretly admiring Li Yu's methods, Ma Teng adjusted his tactics and transferred 10,000 soldiers from the battlefield of the Chinese army to reduce the bloated formation of the Chinese army front and attack from the right flank; The reason why Ma Chao was chosen to defend the Chinese army was that he, the commander, fought like a general, because Ma Teng knew that in this coalition army composed of Qiang people, Ma Chao, a powerful general, was more effective than him, who was a father, maybe he couldn't fully command this army, but Ma Chao could!

Because Ma Chao is the god of heaven in the minds of the Qiang people! Because they worship the strong! Because Ma Chao is their Shenwei general!

"Huh? Have real skill! It's quite bold! Li Yu overlooked the entire battlefield from the wheel, and when he saw Ma Teng's Chinese army moving quickly, he sneered: "The fourth team!" Above! ”

He wants to take advantage of the chaotic moment when Ma Teng dispatched troops and horses to strengthen the impact again, even if he can't make a contribution, he has to give it a try, at least he understands a truth, opportunities are created!

What if it succeeds?
