Chapter 243: Heavy Riding Murder

Outside the north gate of Liyang, the Han army was fighting to the death with the Chu army, but there was silence outside the east gate.

Outside the east gate, except for the dozen rangers who are wandering back and forth, there is no longer a figure of the Han army, the battle of Liyang, Zhou Yin, Jin She, Li Zuoche strategic intention is to capture Liyang, pull out the nail of the Chu army into the north of the river, as for whether they can completely annihilate the defenders in the city, they actually don't care, so, the Han army did not besiege the city on all sides. [.]

Suddenly, a veteran of the Han Army seemed to realize something and slowly turned his horse's head.

When the Han army veterans looked fixedly, they saw that the originally high suspension bridge in front of them suddenly slowly descended, and the originally closed city gate was also slowly opened in a piercing creaking, and then, a burst of thunderous sound suddenly came from the city gate, at this moment, the Han army veteran clearly felt that the ground under his feet was trembling gently.

"What's going on?"

"The Chu army wants to counterattack?!"

"Impossible, seeing that the north gate is about to be lost, where does the Chu army still have the strength to counterattack?"

"Damn, don't Chu Jun know that the city is about to be broken, so he wants to get out of the city and escape in advance, right? Quite a few words"

Dozens of Han horsemen who were originally wandering around also gathered behind the veterans of the Han army, pointing at the open city gate one by one, and whispering.

The face of the veteran of the Han army suddenly changed, this momentum, could it be a large group of cavalry?

Just thinking about it, a row of four sharp spears first poked out of the hole in the city gate, and what appeared after the spears was the four ghostly Chu cavalry, these four cavalry even the men and horses were wrapped in heavy iron armor, and even the faces of the cavalry were covered with a layer of cold armor, which looked so gloomy, so ferocious, and so hideous!

"What cavalry ......?!"

"God, where did these monsters come from?"

"With such heavy iron armor, can the horses move?"

"You kid is blind, don't you see that the war horses of the Chu army are all horses with a height of seven or eight feet at the shoulder?"

"Oh my God, oh my God, these monsters are rushing over, run, let's run!"

Dozens of Han horsemen guarding outside the city gate suddenly became in a commotion, and without waiting for the Han army veterans to give orders, they turned their horses one by one and fled in the direction of the north gate.

Well.........

Outside the north gate, the Han army was in the rear.

Li Zuoche and Zhou Yin were standing on the lookout deck that had been restructured from Jingqi to inspect the battle situation at the North Gate.

Zhou Yin patted the guardrail of the lookout fiercely, and said excitedly: "General Li, there have been more than a dozen teams of dead soldiers rushing to the city, and the Chu army on the city is almost at the limit, if nothing else, as long as there are three or five more teams of light soldiers and dead soldiers to grab the city, the Chu army should completely collapse, haha!" ”

Li Zuoche nodded, and also said: "There is also the head of the city, it should almost be crashed away!" ”

When Li Zuoche and Zhou Yin looked down anxiously, they saw more than a dozen rangers galloping from the direction of the east gate, and the cavalry team running in the front led the horse galloping while shouting: "Chu cavalry, the Chu cavalry of the brigade went out of the city to counterattack, and went out of the city to counterattack ......." ”

"Huh? Chu %% set sail for the cavalry of the Writing Army?! Li Zuoche's face suddenly changed slightly when he heard this.

"What? Counterattack, at this time?! Zhou Yin's face was full of disbelief, seeing that the city was about to be broken, if the Chu army really had extra troops, it didn't rush to fill the city, but it was counterattacked outside the city, isn't that looking for death? Do you really think that a few hundred cavalry can turn the tide of the battle, when the tens of thousands of troops outside the city can't be arranged?

When the two of them were in shock, the sound of horses' hooves rumbling from the direction of the north gate was already heard.

In the dust, a team of cavalry wrapped in heavy iron armor rushed out ghostly, the cavalry suddenly raised his long knife, and the ironclad cavalry that followed slowly behind him slowly spread out towards the two wings, and in less than a moment, he opened a cavalry formation with a width of more than two hundred paces, and the cavalry array was divided into two rows before and after, and crossed and swung apart!

Immediately behind these hundreds of cavalry were more cavalry of the Chu army, not to mention thousands of cavalry!

Zhou Yin's pupils contracted sharply in an instant, and the hundreds of towering spears held by the cavalry in front of him were like a cold forest of death, giving him a very bad feeling, and when Zhou Yin turned around and yelled at Zhou Huan: "Order, all the warrior phalanx will be dispatched, and they will be blocked at all costs, and they will be ...... to be blocked." "...," Zhou Huan suddenly agreed, and then turned his head and shouted, "The warrior phalanx is ......, attack!" Sortie! ”

Zhou Yin's military order was quickly conveyed, and a group of heavily armored soldiers wearing armor and shields surged out from the Han army's large array outside the north gate, facing the Chu army's heavy cavalry that was crushed in front of them, and set up a dense number of formations, a full three thousand heavy armored soldiers, and also set up a defensive formation with a width of more than two hundred steps, with five hundred people in each row, six rows in front and back!

Well, well, well, well,

"How......" Meng Keng raised his knife and howled, and the war horse under his crotch began to accelerate in an instant.

Behind him, more than 300 heavy-armored iron horsemen also urged the war horses to start accelerating, and in less than a moment, more than 300 heavy-armored iron horsemen completed the acceleration and started a high-speed sprint, but saw the horse's head crowded, the spear rose and fell, and thousands of iron hooves struck the earth heavily, like the drum of death, knocking on the heart of the Han army's heavy armor on the opposite side one by one.

Suddenly, it was less than fifty steps away from the phalanx of the Han army.

"Hah!" Meng Keng broke off with a snort, raised the horizontal knife in the air and slashed down sharply, and the next moment, more than 300 heavy armored iron horsemen pressed down the cavalry spears in their hands at the same time, and more than 300 cavalry spears were intertwined into two rows of spears in front and back in an instant.

Between the lightning and the fire, the heavy cavalry of the Chu army, which rushed at great speed, crashed into the dense Han army heavy armor formation extremely violently, and the Han army heavy armor in the front two rows was pierced by the cavalry spear of the Chu army heavy cavalry, but after piercing two rows of Han army heavy armor in a row, the cavalry spear of the Chu army heavy cavalry was also broken in the center because of the heavy load.

However, the charge of the heavy cavalry of the Chu army did not stop slightly because of the breaking of the cavalry spear!

In fact, the real way of killing heavy cavalry is not to ride a spear, but to call it a ferocious and violent impact in the era of cold weapons, to make a simple calculation, a tall horse weighing nearly 1,000 kilograms, plus a knight weighing nearly 100 kilograms and at least 50 kilograms of heavy armor, all add up to more than a ton!

When a mini-car crashes into a dense crowd at a speed of at least 60 kilometers per hour, and the driver will never step on the brakes to slow down, but desperately slam on the accelerator to accelerate, you can fully imagine what the scene will be like?

The charge of the heavily armored iron cavalry, how can it be described with two words of ferocity?!

The iron cavalry was racing wildly, and in an instant, the swelling sound of people and horses colliding, the sonorous sound of weapons hitting each other, the clicking sound of broken bones, and the wailing and screaming of the Han soldiers before they died were intertwined, and the cavalry formation of more than 300 Chu army heavy horses was intertwined, like a huge blood plow, and the dense array of Han army's heavy armor was ploughed into pieces.

Well.........

The Han army was in the rear, on the lookout.

Li Zuoche and Zhou Yin couldn't believe their eyes, the dense formation of three thousand warriors made the Chu cavalry break through so easily? What the fuck is this cavalry?! Where did Xiang Zhuang Xiao and Er find such a murderous cavalry?! As long as there are 3,000 such cavalry in the Chu State, who else can be defeated in the world?

"Not good!" Li Zuoche suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned around and shouted, "Order, the archers retreat] The wells, ladders, and siege vehicles, hurry up... "However, Li Zuoche only thought of letting heavy weapons such as wells, ladders, and siege vehicles retreat horizontally at this time, and it was obviously too late." Well "Well Well Well"

Outside the north gate, after the heavy cavalry of the Chu army broke through the heavy armor phalanx of the Han army, it only reorganized the formation slightly, and continued to rush towards the light soldiers of the Han army crowded outside the north gate.

Where the heavy cavalry of the Chu army passed, the light soldiers of the Han army fled like waves splitting and scattering.

Nearly 1,000 light cavalry of the Chu army then rushed into the Han army's array, and then the sheepskin sacs filled with fierce fire oil smashed like raindrops to the clumsy action, the ladder and the siege vehicle that had no time to retreat.

More than 100 Chu horsemen holding torches finally galloped outside the north gate, and with the torches in their hands flying out, the wells, ladders, and siege vehicles abandoned by the Han army outside the north gate were burned, and the Han light soldiers who had not had time to escape from the wells, ladders, and siege vehicles were suddenly swallowed up by the churning fire.

After burning all the wells, ladders and siege vehicles, nearly 1,000 Chu army light cavalry rushed back and forth to kill a few rounds, at least shot nearly 1,000 Han troops, and finally escorted 300 heavy cavalry from the west gate of Liyang to return to the city, the whole process, lasted less than half an hour, the casualties of the Chu cavalry were less than 100 horses, which can be described as minimal.

The Han army suffered more than 4,000 casualties, and more importantly, all the wells, ladders and siege vehicles were all burned.

Well... Well, well "well."

The Han army was in the rear, and the lookout was closed.

Li Zuoche and Zhou Yin's eyes were straight, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time!

After a long time, Zhou Huan rushed to the lookout in a rage and shouted to Zhou Yin: "Father, Jin She, this treacherous little man, has withdrawn with his men!" ”

"Withdrawn? Withdrawn! Zhou Yin sighed and said, "We should also withdraw!" ”

Over there, Li Zuoche had already hurried down the lookout with his sword, lost all the siege equipment, Jin She had also withdrawn his troops, the three-way coalition army had actually collapsed, there was no need for this battle to continue, now, it was better to think about how to meet the next revenge of the Chu army, right? Not a lot of words (to be continued) ......,
