Chapter 327: World War II (Part II)
Adelan gave the order to attack, and saw 20,000 Lingnan infantry rushing into the battlefield, and he himself was also escorted by 200 personal guards to the battlefield step by step.
Now on the battlefield, both sides are in a state of stalemate, whether it is the Dayan cavalry or the 40,000 Lingnan infantry, after half an hour of fighting, it has reached the time of exhaustion, and it is all supported by willpower. Now that Adelan has invested 20,000 foot soldiers at once, the number of people is already equal to the number of Dayan Iron Cavalry on the battlefield, doesn't this mean that the Lingnan infantry will completely annihilate Guo Lun's 30,000 Iron Cavalry with their own numerical advantage?
There are many battles in which the infantry rely on the numerical advantage to defeat the cavalry, but the battle column of 60,000 foot soldiers and 30,000 cavalry has not appeared until now, if Guo Lun is really wiped out in this battle, it is estimated that Dayan's face will be lost, and this classic infantry and cavalry battle column will also be used as a reference by various countries, in order to fight against the battle when the cavalry is less than the foot soldiers.
Adelan's 20,000 foot soldiers rushed into the battlefield, Guo Lun understood Adelan's thoughts, he wanted to try his best to redeem the defeat, but at this time, the Dayan Iron Cavalry was already at the end of the strong crossbow, and he could not recover it without reinforcements, so Guo Lun could only watch the Lingnan infantry approach his subordinates step by step, and then cut off the momentum of the horse one by one.
Seeing this scene, Guo Lun was furious, he frantically waved the war knife in his hand, and cut down the Lingnan infantry who met him one by one, but after all, the manpower was limited, and it didn't take long to see that the number of Dayan iron cavalry on the battlefield was sharply reduced, and nearly 2,000 people were lost at once.
This is only 20,000 Lingnan infantry soldiers who have just entered the battlefield, if it takes a long time, who knows what will happen to the losses of Lu Dao's own side?
Thinking of this, the words "annihilation of the whole army" appeared in Guo Lun's mind. This is what he thought in his heart to meet Adelan, wanting to use the advantage of his cavalry to completely annihilate Adelan's 60,000 Lingnan infantry, and wanted to show off the mobility and impact of his cavalry, but he didn't expect that the current situation is diametrically opposite, his 30,000 cavalry is encircled, and the other party is showing the strength of their infantry.
What to do? Guo Lun tried his best to think of countermeasures in his heart, he knew that he had lost today's battle, and it was estimated that he would be wiped out by Adelan's 60,000 army, but even if he died, he couldn't be consumed by the Lingnan infantry so much, he just had to die the blood of the Dayan soldiers!
"Kill-" Guo Lun didn't want to die like this, he fought hard to open a bloody road, rushed into the Dayan Iron Cavalry surrounded by Lingnan foot soldiers, and shouted, "Brothers, are you afraid of death? ”
"Don't be afraid—"
"Don't be afraid—"
The besieged knight shouted.
Although they are the personal guards cavalry established by Ji Ping, they have not participated in the big war, and they have not experienced the baptism of war, but they are also a group of elites, and they also have their own dignity and blood.
Now that they are being bullied by Lingnan foot soldiers like this, and they are all so wretched, how can they be willing to accept their fate like this.
"Poof-" Guo Lun shot through the chest of a Lingnan foot soldier who wanted to sneak up on him, he took a deep breath and said loudly, "Ha Lu Ha - good! This is Dayan's son! This is Dayan's soldiers! ”
"General, give any orders you have! The men of Yan Kingdom don't understand what it means to give up! One of the knights shouted, his spear in his hand standing against the wind, and he said these words with a domineering spirit like a god.
"Yes, the men of Yan Kingdom don't understand what it means to give up! Please give the general the order! ”
With the first person to speak, the remaining knights also shouted loudly, they were ready to fight to the death, even if they were to die, they would die with honor, and they would die as they deserved.
"Being born in the Yan Kingdom is determined by God, whether you live or die, you can choose. It is God's decision to be born in Yan Kingdom, but it is our choice to become a soldier in Yan Kingdom. It was God's decision to be born in Yan Kingdom, but it was my own decision to be brothers with everyone. Brothers, today we have come to this point, and we have no regrets, because we have done our part for Dayan, and we have died as we deserve. Now, let's fight again! Not for Dayan, not for family, only for yourself! ”
It can be said that Guo Lun's speech is very non-sensational, and this is also plagiarized from the words of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion when he swore to Ji Qingchen. But stopping in the ears of everyone at this moment is very encouraging.
All of a sudden, everyone's bodies seemed to be filled with infinite strength, surging, and blood boiling!
"For the dignity of a man, kill—" Guo Lun shouted, waving his sword again, and rode towards the enemy in front of him.
"For the dignity of a man, kill—" The only remaining more than 10,000 iron horsemen behind him followed closely and rushed to the position of the Lingnan infantry in a triangular attack formation, which was where Adelan was.
When Adlan went to the battlefield, he stayed in the position of the Chinese army and did not participate in the fighting.
Because he deeply remembers what his commander General Sang Xiong said: As the commander of an army, you are a commander, and you should use your own command and strategy to win the opponent, not your own brute force, because when you use your brute force, it means that you have exhausted your donkey skills!
He couldn't agree more.
Therefore, even if he is a powerful general, as long as it is not necessary to participate in the battle during the battle, it is difficult for him to fight in person.
It's the same this time, his own side has twice as many troops as the other side, even if the opponent's cavalry is not strong in combat, 60,000 foot soldiers are enough to deal with 30,000 cavalry, and he doesn't need to participate in the battle himself.
That's why he stayed in the Chinese army and quietly watched everything on the battlefield.
When Guo Lun rushed into the besieged Dayan Iron Cavalry and launched a passionate speech, he saw it in his eyes, but he didn't do anything, because his army had already gained the upper hand, no matter how hard Guo Lun tried, it was just in vain, and the Dayan Iron Cavalry was already at the end of the crossbow, and there was no chance of turning the tables at all.
That's why he gave Guo Lun time and asked Guo Quan to give him a passionate speech by the generals of Dayan.
Therefore, when Guo Lun led the remaining Dayan cavalry to rush towards him like chicken blood, he behaved very calmly and calmly, as if he had expected it a long time ago. He just ordered the guards around him, "Order the army, shrink the attack range, trap them in the formation, and don't let them break out!" ”
"Yes." The guards received orders and began to give orders to the army.
As soon as Adelan's order was issued, the Lingnan infantry tightened the defensive line and compressed the battle group of Guo Lun's cavalry at once. And this is Guo Lun, who has led more than 10,000 rejuvenated iron horsemen to rush into the camp of the Lingnan foot soldiers, and forced Adelan step by step.
"Kill-" Guo Lun picked up a Lingnan foot soldier with one shot, urged the war horse fiercely, and rushed towards Adelan, who was still a hundred paces away from Adelan at this time.
And the three hundred guards who followed behind Guo Lun understood Guo Lun's thoughts, and they fought hard, and rushed to Adelan closely behind Guo Lun. They knew that they were bound to die, and if they could kill the main general of this Lingnan infantry at the moment of their death, their death was worth it.
For this goal, they can act as a shield for Guo Lun to attract the attention of the enemy, and they can sacrifice themselves for Guo Lun to fight a bloody way for Guo Lun.
Therefore, regardless of their own casualties, they fought hard to stop the enemy who rushed towards Guo Lun, and made a way for Guo Lun to Adelan.
"Kill-" I saw a Lingnan foot soldier's long knife slashed at a Great Yan knight, the knight was sure to die with a knife in the chest, but he still struggled to kill an enemy with a spear in the moment of death.
Such scenes frequently appeared on the battlefield under the encouragement of Guo Lun.
Eighty steps –
Sixty Steps –
When Guo Lun used the guards around him to approach Adlan step by step, Adlan also knew Guo Lun's intentions. At this time, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was mockery and disdain. He was not ridiculing Guo Lun's force for not being worth his deal, but mocking Guo Lun for being a little stiff on the cavalry forever, and his self-confidence was too inflated to seriously analyze the current form. Otherwise, if he divided the 30,000 cavalry into three brigades and charged in turn, he felt that it was much stronger and more lethal than the 30,000 cavalry charging together.
"Want to kill me? It's not that easy, stop him, kill him for me! Adelan's face showed a murderous look, a defeated general wanted to kill himself when he was on the verge of death, this was a fool's dream, and this insistence was an insult to his combat effectiveness, how could he endure such an insult.
"Kill—"
"Kill him—"
Just after Adlan gave the order, dozens of Lingnan cavalry on war horses rushed towards Guo Lun.
This is Adelan's personal guard, Adelan is the confidant general of the Sang Bear, and the treatment of the personal guard is naturally not low, in addition to being equipped with the best weapons and armor of the Lingnan Yi clan, each person can get a war horse. Therefore, they are not only the elite in foot combat, but also very strong in horseback.
Forty steps –
Just when Guo Lun was only forty steps away from Adelan, he found a powerful murderous aura attacking him, and when he looked up again, he found that thirty Lingnan cavalry appeared in front of him at some point, killing him viciously.
Is this Adelan's personal guard? Guo Lun sneered in his heart when he saw these thirty horses, and a faint mockery appeared on his mouth. Just when the distance between the two sides was only ten steps, Guo Lun instinctively restrained the war horse, stopped in place and did not rush forward, and the Dayan cavalry with less than eighty left behind him decisively met the thirty Lingnan cavalry that was killing on-demand.
Eighty Dayan cavalry met thirty Lingnan cavalry, and Guo Lun urged the war horse, changed the route of the advance and killed Adelan again.
This time he hit at a very fast speed.
Because he knew that his companions around him could only send him here, and if he broke into Adelan again, he would have to rely on his own ability to kill Adelan!
With so many companions making such sacrifices for their own killing, Guo Lun was already angry in his heart, the blood of killing was already boiling, he held a spear on his galloping horse, and rushed towards Adelan in one breath regardless of the Lingnan infantry who rushed towards him.
