Chapter 141: Trampling Everything
(Ask for a commuter pass!) )
The autumn wind gusts, blowing off the red leaves
The fallen leaves on the ground were constantly trampled by the iron hooves of the war horses, and the air currents carried by the galloping thousands of horses rolled up the dead leaves on the ground and flew up all over the sky, but they still couldn't stop the cavalry's eyes that were firmly staring at each other.
More than 20,000 cavalrymen were dressed in black armor, and as the horses galloped, it was a large moving dark cloud. Carrying an incomparable bolt of lightning inside, it will deliver a deadly blow to your opponent
The cavalrymen of the heavy cavalry brigade each had a horse lance, and at this time each cavalryman was bowed down, his legs were tightly clamped between his horses, and his hands were tightly holding the horse lance, and his eyes were firmly locked on the front.
Behind them, tens of thousands of knights were also wearing black bright light armor, but they were no longer as heavy as the knights of the heavy cavalry brigade. The big heart goggles on the chests of each person's battle armor reflected the iron-colored edge of the riding spears they held in their hands, and the faint reflection made them even more murderous. Among the more than 10,000 cavalry, the number of elite veterans is less than one-tenth, and most of them are from Orion, and basically everyone can pass the riding skills. However, this cavalry battle is not familiar, and until now, they can barely ride their horses and follow the charging array, so as not to be unable to keep up with their own team.
Although it was not the first time that most of the cavalrymen had participated in the battle, more or less they had seen some blood. But riding a war horse like today, rushing straight into the opponent's array, this is the first time for them. Looking at the forest of spears pointing diagonally on the opposite side, the faces of many cavalrymen were a little blue, and the hands holding the spears were even whiter.
But everyone understands that they can only move forward, not retreat. Once they put on their armor and picked up their spears, they were no longer people, they were no longer hunters. No matter whether they are facing a ferocious wolf pack or a ferocious tiger, they can only rush forward desperately, until in the end, either the enemy dies or I die, and there is no third choice. At the end of them, there were rows of gendarmerie with red armbands on their arms, who specialized in executing the retreating and fearful ones.
The war drums on the mountain ridge in the north resounded throughout the battlefield, one side, ten sides, hundreds of sides, that was the sound of hundreds of cowhide war drums. Listening to the drums, this is the order that all the soldiers were told when they put on their armor for the first time.
The knights of the Heavy Armored Cavalry Brigade have been accelerating since they came out of the ambush valley, from the initial stepping, to the slow acceleration, and then to the rapid advance. In the end, the cavalry of the entire heavy cavalry brigade was like an avalanche, with a fierce and indomitable momentum, rolling up gusts of autumn wind, bringing up pieces of fallen leaves, and rushing towards the infantry spear formation that was still in a hurry in the rear army of the Liao.
All the cavalry ignored the spears, and not a single one slowed down, or deviated from the attack. Everyone is indomitable, who else is me. Since the general Chen Kefu broke through the 80,000 cavalry with 1,000, this unit has also inherited and retained the indomitable and invincible momentum. Not to mention that the Liao people in front of them only have 5,000 infantry, even if they multiply it several times, they will not be afraid either. In the conviction of the Heavy Cavalry Brigade, there is no such word as fear.
They are synonymous with fear, and where their iron hooves go, and what their horses point to, they only make their enemies tremble and fear.
"Steady, steady"
"Tree spear, tree spear"
The officers of the rear army who covered the copper roared desperately one by one. Only a loud roar could temporarily calm the fear of the rushing Sui Rider in their hearts.
The infantrymen at the front of the entire half-moon-shaped infantry array clenched the spears in their hands one by one and held them diagonally forward. At this moment, only the spear in his hand can give them a little comfort in their hearts. …,
In front of the entire infantry formation, it was as if a large steel forest had suddenly grown out of the ground, full of spearheads of cold light, neatly covering the entire front of the formation. For cavalry, this is the most effective way for infantry to deal with cavalry. Yuan Gaitong felt a pity in his heart, if he could have more infantry, there would be forty or fifty thousand people to form a solid phalanx of large in-depth infantry. Then he can place a spear phalanx with enough depth in front of the formation, and with a phalanx of more than 10,000 archers in the back, he will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage on the cavalry in front of him.
The earth shook slightly, and at last it shook violently. Under the gloomy sky, in front of the entire defensive position, it was like a strong wind blowing in the sky, and the cavalry of the Sui army who rushed forward raised bursts of dead grass and fallen leaves, accompanied by the hysterical and crazy roar of the recruits in that formation, the entire cavalry unit pounced.
"Shoot the arrows, all the archers release the arrows," the Liao herald shouted.
In that gloomy afternoon, the men of the Second Heavy Cavalry Brigade of the Sui Army Reserve quickly rushed to within a hundred paces in front of the Liao army.
The arrows of the Liao people had not yet been shot, and suddenly from the mountainsides on the north and south sides, stone bullets had smashed into the phalanx of the Liao rear army with the sound of the wind. Under the accurate ranging of the soldiers of the engineer battalion, the Sui army began to fire more than 300 catapults and hundreds of ballistas, and extended from the outermost spearmen of the Liao people to the archers in the array, and finally smashed down into the Liao cavalry on both wings.
Stone bullets smashed into the dense infantry phalanx, splashing blood plasma, no matter how brave the soldiers, the strongest armor, once they were smashed, there was only a dead end.
Crossbow bolts are more powerful, have a faster rate of fire, and even have repeating crossbows that fire several arrows at a time. The first crossbow arrow was shot into the array of the Liao people, and it was basically a false method. It's so dense that as long as you shoot in that direction, you won't miss. And the huge crossbow arrow will not stop until it penetrates the bodies of at least a few people each time. Those Liao people who were shot were like meat skewers that had been skewered.
One of the building owners was directly pierced by a huge crossbow arrow and flew several paces away, and then penetrated two more before being nailed to the ground. Before the officer died, he shouted, "Raise your shield and hold your ground"
A distance of dozens of paces, for the heavy cavalry in the charge, it was only a matter of a moment.
In the last moment, they were still dozens of steps away in front of the Liao formation.
In the next moment, they had already carried the howling autumn wind and crashed straight into the infantry formation of the Liao.
Before those Liao people had time to react, the heavy cavalry at the front had already relied on the strong defensive power of the armored cavalry equipment to directly crash into the spear formation of the Liao infantry. Those spears could not bear the weight of the heavy cavalry and the heavy cavalry, constantly bending and breaking, but few spears could kill the heavy cavalry and pierce the knights and war horses of the Sui cavalry.
That was the black wave of fear, and the hoplites at the front crashed into the infantry formation of the Liao people without hesitation, knocking the infantry away and knocking them down. The hoplites who followed behind mercilessly rode their horses and stamped away.
The infantry phalanx of the Liao rear army was like a huge piece of butter, and it was lightly stabbed by the heavy cavalry, which was like a red-hot iron chisel, and it burned open a deep ditch like a bamboo.
In the click, the second, third, and fourth rows of Liao infantry fell. With bursts of panic and panic, screaming and howling, the infantry formation that Yuan Gaitong thought he could stop the Sui cavalry broke.
"Resist, resist, tie up," the Liao officer shouted desperately.
"Kill" The cavalry of the Sui army were full of murderous shouts, and every time the word kill was shouted, a Liao soldier would fall. …,
The cavalry of the heavy cavalry brigade was like a sharp knife, easily tearing through the defense line of the Liao rear army. In the chaotic battle, all the knights could only see a small part in front of them, but no one was scattered in formation. still maintained a triangular sharp arrow formation, constantly rushing towards the depth of the Liao formation.
The eyes of all the heavy cavalry, they had been following the half-left heavy cavalry flag, the one with only one team of wings but no white horses. They knew that that it was the position of Guo Xiaoke, the commander of the heavy cavalry brigade, and it was also the sharpest position of the entire heavy cavalry brigade. All they have to do is follow that flag closely, and wherever it flies, they rush there. Fearless, trampled on everything, everything that stood in their way, was trampled flat.
Luo Lin led the 2,000 cavalry of the independent light cavalry regiment, as well as more than 10,000 cavalry battalions of various divisions led by the old man Li Benlei, and followed closely behind the heavy cavalry brigade. All the generals felt that Guo Xiaoke and his heavy cavalry brigade were a little crazy, and they didn't wait for the rhythm of the cavalry behind them at all, but just blindly rushed forward. Li Benlei and his more than 10,000 men had just rushed to the gap that they had broken through, and the thousands of men and horses of the heavy cavalry brigade had already broken through dozens of layers of infantry defense lines in a row and went straight to the commander of the Liao rear army.
The Heavy Cavalry Brigade is the elite of the elite, the treasure of the treasure, although now it has been revoked by Chen Kefu on the surface, and has been classified in the reserve battle sequence. But from the old man Li Benlei to the officers like Luo Lin, everyone understands the preciousness of this army.
At present, the heavy cavalry brigade is indeed brave and fast. However, the Liao rear army also has 10,000 horses, and if the heavy cavalry brigade rushes too fast and too deep, then it will also be consumed a lot of strength in the Liao people's rear defense line. For the old man, it is acceptable for a new recruit to lose a little, but the heavy cavalry brigade can be a veteran of a hundred battles, and every loss is equivalent to a very important loss. The Liaodong Army is not yet generously rich enough to consume heavy cavalry brigades.
"The whole army followed the banner of the heavy cavalry brigade and rushed to protect the left and right flanks of the heavy cavalry brigade" The old man didn't have time to slash and kill the Liao soldiers who had lost the support of the formation, and yelled at the flag officer beside him, and led all the cavalry to rush down with the half of the flag fluttering in front of him.
For the sake of the monthly pass, we can trample on everything......,
