Chapter 143: Capture the Flag! Capture the flag

Standing on the North Ridge, the battle situation below the mountain is clear at a glance.

On the battlefield, for more than ten miles, the entire Sui army and the Liao army were mixed together. This is a melee that has invested 160,000 people, except for Chen Kefu's 20,000 reserves, all the men and horses have participated.

Everywhere he looked, there were shouts of tearing and killing. To the west of the Jinshan Gorge, the rear army of the Goguryeo army has been completely penetrated by the cavalry of the Sui army, and the conspicuous half of the banner of the heavy cavalry brigade is getting closer and closer to the general flag of the Liao rear army, and it is about to be killed.

The knights of the Heavy Cavalry Brigade were already red-eyed at this time. followed the brigade commander Guo Xiaoke, who had already had a red light in his eyes, and only cared about charging, charging, and charging again!

Niu Yuan Gaitong, the commander of the Goguryeo Later Army, also saw this cavalry, the infantry around him had already been killed into a pot of porridge by the Sui cavalry, and the only thing he could count on at this time was the 5,000 cavalry that originally guarded the two wings.

In order to ensure the safety of the clan chief's younger brother, the 5,000 Liao cavalry, desperately approaching the general flag of the Yuangai from both wings, launched a counter-charge towards the Sui cavalry that was rushing straight forward.

The hoplites had already fallen into a state of madness, one by one they kept kicking the horse's belly with tuǐ, holding the precious horse lance in their hands, stabbing, picking, and patting, advancing vertically and horizontally, and the gods blocked and killed the gods, and the demons blocked and killed the demons. For those Liao cavalry who also rushed towards as if they were not dying, not only did they not have the idea of retreating, but where there were many people, they rushed there.

The 5,000 cavalry of the Liao rear army are all the 5,000 cavalry of Yuan Taidi's line in Fuyu City, and they have always been fierce. But this cavalry is a light cavalry, in order to adapt to the mountain battle, their war horses are not the tallest kind, even the armor on their bodies is all to reduce the burden of the war horses, and they are all wearing leather armor, only a large piece of heart guard in front of the xiōng.

The collision of two equally desperate cavalry units was cruel, and for Guo Xiaoke, as early as in the battle with Yizhi, they had already had such a cavalry hard collision. They have a very strong confidence in their armor and equipment, and they have no hesitation at all about such a collision.

Under this ferocious onslaught of the heavy cavalry brigade, it would be complete suicide to collide with it head-on, except for the heavy infantry, or heavy cavalry. The Liao people once again repaid the same bitter taste as Yizhi Wende.

Blocking the torrent of steel with their flesh and blood, the Liao people paid a heavy price for their bravery and ignorance. One after another, the Liao cavalry was knocked off the war horse in the collision, and "even the war horse was knocked on its side and fell to the ground." Trampled to death by the steel torrent of Sui cavalry, those war horses and knights let out a terrible howl one by one before they died.

Guo Xiaoke held a horse lance in his hand and rushed in front of the nose of the team, and the horse lance that was more than a foot long had already changed from black sè to black and red sè at this time. Guo Xiaoke's horse lance was stabbed horizontally and vertically, and none of the Liao cavalry was his opponent. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the banner of the generals of the Liao rear army, Guo Xiaoke slapped fiercely, and a Liao knight screamed that his brain burst and fell off his horse and died. and solved a Liao man in front of him," Guo Xiaoke yelled, "Capture the flag!" Capture the Flag! ”

Seeing that their brigade commander was so brave, the morale of the officers and men of the "Heavy Cavalry Brigade was even greater, and they rushed straight to the banner of the rear army one after another. As if they had been beaten with chicken blood, the cavalry of the heavy cavalry brigade continued to break through the last few lines of defense of the Liao people" The Liao people in the distance were all red in a hurry, and they desperately rushed to the war horses, but they were fast, Guo Xiaoke and others were faster, and in a blink of an eye, they had rushed to the side of the cavalry carrying the big banner.

Guo Xiaoke, who had been rushing to the front, rushed to the knight in an instant, "tǐng picked up the horse lance and stabbed it, and the total striking force of the war horse made the knight who was stabbed fly up." After stabbing the knight to death, Guo Xiaoke easily withdrew the horse lance, galloped over, and leaned over to snatch the battle flag of the Liao people from the ground. He drew his horizontal knife and "cut off the flagpole of the flag with a slight sword, stretched out his hand to tear off the flag, tied it to the horse's mallet, and waved it from side to side."

The hoplites saw that the boss had taken the opponent's flag" and erupted into a thunderous roar.

The Liao cavalry who rushed straight over lost their minds for a moment, and they were actually captured like this?

Guo Xiaoke, who was covered in blood, waved the flag of the meeting, and waited for the brothers behind him to rush up, and his momentum rose even more.

Waving his horse lance and pointing to the sky, he shouted at a Liao general in gorgeous armor who was constantly retreating in the direction of the Chinese army in front, "Kill the general!" Slash! ”,

The cavalry stabbed, and all the knights were demoralized, and since the battle flags had been captured, what reason was there not to behead the enemy generals. n slammed the horse's belly, the war horse was like the wind, and hundreds of horsemen rushed over without hesitation.

The old man Li Benlei in the back took more than 10,000 cavalry, and Gangyue followed, but found that Guo Xiaoke had already captured the flag in the battle, and now he was chasing the enemy's general. Busy with a wave of the horse, "Boom, led the cavalry to kill again."

Yuan Gaitong finally managed to find a horse under the escort of hundreds of cavalry, and moved closer to the Chinese army. It was only when he rushed to the front of the Chinese army that he found that it had also become a big scuffle.

The Chinese army, which has more than 60,000 people, does not even have a complete formation at this time. The soldiers of the Liao army and the Sui army completed the dog-tooth staggered and fought in a mess. There are many soldiers and horses in the Liao army, and there are also many recruits among the soldiers of the Sui army.

The Liao people were fierce, but the recruits of the Sui army were strong in armor and sharp weapons. In addition, it was an ambush war, and the momentum of this battlefield was naturally more than that of the Sui army.

Although the offensive of the Sui army was somewhat disorganized and rushed forward in a chaotic manner, the offensive was like a landslide and tsunami, full of momentum. The overwhelming Sui army completely relied on that momentum and pressed it without leaving any room, not giving Yuan Taidi a chance to breathe at all.

Being in the middle of the Chinese army, he saw the Sui army's offensive in front of him clearly, and his eyes were full of disdain for those Sui army infantry who were like rushing to the market. In this way, even if his Chinese army has 50,000 young tribesmen and not regular soldiers, he is still confident that he can defeat the chaotic infantry tide.

What really made him feel a little helpless and frightened was the crest of the whole frenzy. It was also an infantry unit, less than 10,000 in number, but it was more powerful than the large group of people behind.

The black sè full-body battle armor of a water is not a spear or a horizontal knife in each person's hand, but a double-edged broadsword that is more than a foot long. What's even more surprising is that there are only half of the big flags of this army, and half of the battle flags of the black sè look weird, which reminds him of the previous and rear military reports, and there is also a such unit among the cavalry of the Sui army, which can't help but make him a little more jealous.

These large infantrymen, all over six feet tall, were nothing more than moving hills, and the armor that the swords slashed at them would splash with bursts of fire, and they could not easily kill and seriously injure them.

And these strange broadswords of the Sui people, as soon as they went down, the Goguryeo infantry wearing leather armor were basically cut into two pieces with a single sword, and they were indescribably afraid. Even if the knight faced them, he often couldn't fight for a few rounds, and he was also cut into two pieces by his people and horses. Those tribes in the Chinese army are young and strong, when have they ever seen such soldiers and horses that cannot be killed, but are extremely fierce, and their morale has plummeted and they have retreated.

The men of the heavy infantry brigade became more and more courageous as they fought, and the other light infantry behind them completely regarded them as mobile steel shields. All of them were armed with spears and horizontal swords, and they followed behind the heavy infantry in twos and threes, and a pair of enemies swarmed up. If the Liao were fierce, they would turn and retreat behind the heavy infantry, and their own moving hill-like heavy infantry would pick up the hard idea of the tie-in.

The formation of the Chinese army of the Liao people swayed, and the people of the Chinese army let the elite infantry of those cities such as the city fight desperately, but they kept retreating with pale faces one by one. There were even a few young people of the tribe who left behind the heavy swords in their hands and turned around and ran.

Yuan Tai's personal soldiers temporarily served as wartime law enforcement teams, and executed a large number of tribesmen who had retreated in battle with large swords. Although he killed one after another, he always couldn't control the people who turned around and ran away from time to time. The pro-soldier team Zhengyuan raised his sword and killed another deserter with his own hands. But looking at the retreating front, I also felt a burst of worry in my heart, the front was already unstable, and if it continued like this, it wouldn't be long before the entire front would collapse. At that time, even if they execute them severely, they will not be able to deter them.

The situation that the captain of Yuan Tai's personal guard could see, and Chen Kefu, who was standing in the North Ridge to watch the formation, naturally saw it at a glance. By this time, the battle had been fought for nearly three hours, and it could be said that there was a river of blood, and the losses on both sides were very large.

Now Chen Kefu still has 20,000 horses in his hands, it can be said that this is a very critical force, he kept these horses at the beginning, but he was also worried about the three Sui army, in case there is a road of people and horses can not withstand it, those recruits will disperse, but it will cause a chain reaction and make the entire army chaotic.

With a reserve team of more than 20,000 people in hand, even if there is a situation that is really unbearable, he can immediately transfer the reserve team to the top.

But now it seems that the first people who can't stand it are the Liao people. The rear army to the east of the Liao people has been completely penetrated and defeated, and even the battle flag has been captured. The commanding generals have also fled to the Chinese army, and the rear army has lost its command, so it can be said that the rear army has nothing to do.

The Liao people in the west advanced, and they completely fell into Mao Yi's rhythm, fighting for a long time, penetrating countless infantry lines of the Sui army, but there were still lines of defense in front. At this time, he couldn't turn around if he wanted to, until now, the horsepower of the cavalry has reached the bottom, if he can't beat the Sui army in the west in one go, then their cavalry will be finished.
