Chapter 502: Mu Chong is dead

Mu Chong's complexion changed again, if he suddenly saw the Jin army killing from the front to shock his heart, but it was only a shock, because he was confident that he was bringing the most elite forbidden army of the Great Wei Dynasty, as long as he did not lose his sharpness, he was not afraid of any opponent in the frontal battle, not to mention that he also had five thousand heavy horses, although the heavy horses were bulky and inflexible, but the impact was incomparable, when the two armies fought fiercely, it was enough to play a decisive role!

However, the rear also killed the Jin army, which made Mu Chong's heart really panic, front and back, and most of the main force was trapped in the river, although the river is not wide or deep, but it is enough to affect the speed of the horses, according to the current situation, at most half a pillar of incense is not enough, and the army will fall into a heavy siege!

It's just that Mu Chong is a veteran of a hundred battles after all, and after being stunned, he shouted: "Soldiers, hurry up, you are the most elite warriors of the Great Wei Dynasty, even if the Jin army has set a trap, why be afraid?" The overlord of Chu still has a broken boat, and Han Xin also has a backwater battle, we will prove to them that in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are just child's play! Is there confidence? ”

"Yes!" A roar of rage rises to the sky!

"Good!" Mu Chong once again slammed the secret edict, and said sharply: "My Great Wei athletes, Your Majesty is watching you, now listen to the order, the forbidden army will assault forward, never retreat half a step, wear heavy horses in the half-pillar incense, and lead your servants to deal with the enemy in the rear, and you must hold out until the forbidden army comes back!" ”

"Yes!" Thirty-five thousand men responded with a bang, and the front and rear formations quickly separated. A breath of no return rose into the sky!

In fact, dividing troops to meet has always been a taboo for soldiers, but the incident happened suddenly, Mu Chong had no better way, he thought that once the heavy cavalry was well dressed, with the cooperation of 10,000 servants, even if he could not defeat the Jin army in the rear, he could also entangle him and buy time for the forbidden army to win!

The front formation did not give up the slightest to the main force of Weifeng, and the 15,000 troops in the rear dismounted whether they were in the river or not, and the servants untied the packages on their horses. Neatly dressed for their master.

Equipped with heavy riding not only for the quality of human physical strength. There are also extremely high requirements for horses, and the horses ridden by the Weifeng cavalry, including most of the horses of the Tuoba clan, are from Mongolian horse breeds. Weigh between 270 and 370 kilograms. For the men and horses were heavily armoured. The weight of the horse in the saddle will exceed 100 kilograms, and the weight that the horse can carry in this position cannot exceed 20% of its own weight, and therefore is eligible for the equipping of horses. Its weight must not be less than 550 kilograms!

Obviously, only pure-blooded horses introduced from the Western Regions can be equipped with heavy rides, but the cost can almost be called sky-high!

Equipped with heavy cavalry, that is, with armored cavalry, armor cavalry, human armor also, for the weight of thickened Mingguang armor, the cavalry's fighting weapons are also changed from halberds to long-bladed lances, equipment, horse armor, by the face curtain, chicken neck, when chest, horse body armor, after the back and parasitism six parts, of which parasitism is more distinctive, is a broom-like component resting on the horse's tail to the curl, it can be said that the horse with the equipment, in addition to the horse's legs, the whole body is protected by heavy armor.

The back of the Wei army was nervously dressed, and Wei Feng's gaze crossed the oncoming cavalry and threw it over, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Xu Daofu beside him couldn't help but exclaim: "This is, could it be the legendary heavy ride?" ”

"Humph!" Wei Feng came back to his senses and snorted coldly: "Don't look at his scary appearance, in fact, it is useless, it can only rush straight, can not be outflanked, and the distance is extremely limited, too far people and horses can not bear it, and can not push the speed to the fastest, can only jog, run in the charge, its tactics are simple, slow to move, equipped heavy cavalry can only be used in a specific environment, the reason why the cavalry is sharp, is that the use of soldiers is God, the speed of the war is expensive, the cavalry loses speed, can only be a lamb to be slaughtered."

According to the book, the reason why the Wei people accompanied them with heavy cavalry was mostly because of the idea of using it as a killer weapon when attacking our army, but using heavy cavalry to deal with light cavalry was at the beginning of the battle, and he was dragged to death, Xian Enzhuo and Jiang Xuan would not fight hard with them, I really didn't expect that the Wei people could eat such a delicious meal in this ambush!

Cousin Fu doesn't have to care about him, but although the enemy in front of us is only 20,000, there is a chance that it is the forbidden army of the Wei State, and it cannot be taken lightly! ”

Xu Daofu suddenly felt a sense of pride, Wei Feng brought him a completely different feeling from following Sun En, and even Lu Xun's side, this is the feeling of boiling blood, any fame, fortune, life and death can be put aside, just to enjoy the burning blood in the chest!

Xu Daofu couldn't help but glance at Wei Feng, but Wei Feng smiled coldly: "Cousin Fu, I'll leave it to you here." ”

Xu Daofu hurriedly arched his hand: "Please rest assured, the general will definitely stop the Wei people, and please take care of the general!" ”

Wei Feng nodded, then waved his hand violently, the guard immediately blew the horn, and the 30,000 cavalry were separated in an instant, Xu Dao led 15,000 crossbow cavalry to gradually slow down the horse, and formed a three-horizontal formation in the run, each team of 5,000 horses, which was several times stronger than the crossbow cavalry led by Xian Enzhuo in Tianjin.

Wei Feng led more than 1,000 guards and dominatrix to embellish, and 7,500 troops on each flank were outflanked on both sides, which was exactly the same as the tactics of the year.

In fact, in addition to running, assault and siege, cavalry tactics are only a few kinds of frontal combat, basically a trick that is eaten all over the world, just as in the battle with Tuoba Yi, it has been proved that the combat cavalry and crossbow cavalry are used together is an effective tactic, since it is effective, why change the way?

Mu Chong's eyes narrowed, but he couldn't retreat half a step, he could only rush hard, breaking through the interception in front, and then he could turn around and bite back the two wings of the Jin army's cavalry, the formation he laid was the same as the straggler line laid by Tuoba Yi when he broke through, this is not only to use dispersion to weaken the lethality of the Jin army's arrows, but more importantly, he experienced a fearless momentum from the Jin army!

This is also an important reason why he did not restrain his forces into a fish scale array, even if the fish scale array broke through the interception of the Jin army, but the galloping cavalry was difficult to turn around, with that courage, the Jin army could gather on both sides and calmly shoot their own soldiers, so Mu Chong chose the skirmish line!

"Tense and taut~~" There was a bowstring vibration in front, bright silver arrows were overwhelming, and a strong sense of crisis rose from Mu Chong's heart, he could see that the opponent's soldiers were holding crossbows, but the arrows shot were different from any kind of arrows in the past, the crossbows of the Jin army fired fast, and he didn't pay much attention to this, the forbidden soldiers would all kick in the art of hiding, and the front of the horse had soft armor, and the throat and other vital places were inlaid with iron sheets, in his opinion, it was enough to resist two or three rounds of crossbow arrows, The crossbow arrows shot by the Jin army today brought him a strong sense of crisis!

With the sound of the bowstring, the Wei people from front to back, everyone put a beautiful kick to hide, even Mu Chong is in his fifties, and he is also Lisuo's one-legged step off the war horse, his body shrinks, one hand tightly pulls the reins of the horse, and half of his body squats on the side of the horse, so that the probability of receiving arrows can be reduced to the bottom.

The Wei army's pedal hiding was almost neat, and Wei Feng's pupils shrank, but it only stopped at a shrinkage, and after a shrinkage, there was a loud rumbling sound when the Wei people's formation was neutral, and the neighing of the horses before they died!

Rows of war horses rushed to the ground, and the soldiers of the Wei Forbidden Army who made a perfect kick to hide in the posture were thrown out of the air before they could react, and some others were directly crushed to death by the horses that fell to the ground, Mu Chong's heart was terrified for a moment, he accurately estimated the distance of the arrow, which was three hundred steps, at this distance, even if it was an arrow shot from a crossbow, it was difficult to penetrate the armor of the horse, but the reality ruthlessly shattered his illusion!

The last thing Mu Chong saw in this world was that his beloved horse was nailed into the neck by three short arrows that shimmered with silver light, and only an inch remained outside, two of which shot through the iron pieces.

Then, there was a strong force, and the body flew out uncontrollably, and the moment it touched the ground, a horse's hoof stepped on his face!

In the battle between the two armies, no matter how noble the identity, life is as fragile as ants, Mu Chong died, his death was not noticed, because the battlefield was chaotic, the corpse was trampled by the war horse, and the identity was unrecognizable, including Tuoba's secret edict, what was written on it, it will become a mystery.

Tuoba had no intention of thinking about the content of the edict, he only felt that from the body to the soul was trembling, he could see it clearly in the back, more than a thousand horses, just a blink of an effort, gone!

He subconsciously reined in the reins of the horse, the speed of the horse just slowed down, and there was a second round of silver light flashing in the Jin army's array, this time because the distance was closer, the killing was more amazing, according to Tuoba U's estimate, the soldiers who fell from the horse and died were close to fifteen hundred horses!

Tuoba didn't know what the silver light represented, he had the urge to run, Tuoba Jue's high hopes, his father's blood feud, and the glory of being a Tuoba clan were gradually fading, and fear was replacing his heart inch by inch, but the forbidden army was still rushing and killing according to inertia, which made him always undetermined to escape, and if he escaped, even if he could run away from this life, it would be over, and maybe there would be a chance to rush over?

Each round of 5,000 short arrows, six rounds of non-stop firing a total of 30,000, a large number of horse corpses on the ground became an obstacle, so that the speed of the Wei army was forced to slow down, which in turn increased casualties, no matter how superb their combat skills were, what is the use of not touching the other party? In addition to throwing a large number of corpses, I could only do it in a hurry, and after six rounds, the number of people was reduced by nearly half!

"Kill! Kill! Suddenly, the left and right sides broke out shouting and killing, each with 7,500 horsemen from the flank, the crossbow cavalry started from the middle, and retreated to both sides, Wei Feng led the guards and the dominatrix like a javelin, shooting towards the Wei people!
