Chapter 168: Fight!
The 1,000 cavalry swept in like a tide, with a strong inertia, and slammed into the 1,000 ironclad elite soldiers who were waiting for the battle! Bursts of blood mist bloomed in an instant, the mournful neighing of horses, the scene of knights throwing away, the scene of ironclad soldiers being knocked away, the sound of spears not being able to resist the strength of the war horses, and the little cold glow reflected by the ring head knife under the scorching sun, all of them converged into a tragic battle scene!
Xun Zheng struggled to slash on a spear, and finally opened a relatively safe way for his war horse! However, his movement did not stop there, and the big man he had been paying attention to met him!
I saw him roar like thunder, and a horse stepped down, and then flew towards him! If Xun Zheng had observed carefully enough, he would have found that after the big man suddenly exerted his strength, he stepped on the ground with two three-inch-deep footprints!
But Xun Zheng didn't notice it, all he saw was that the big man was stupidly rushing towards his war horse! A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, a person actually wanted to shake the edge of a war horse running at full speed, isn't this looking for death? Thinking of this, Xun Zheng knocked the horse's belly, and the war horse rushed towards the big man without slowing down!
In an instant, the man's huge body and the even more huge body of the war horse collided together! To Xun Zheng's surprise, he didn't see the scene of the big man being knocked away, but his horse's footsteps stopped instantly! Immediately after, he flew into the clouds without any accident, and fell heavily to a distance of more than a dozen paces!
When he endured the biting soreness all over his body and got up, what he saw was a group of soldiers with strange crossbow machines, staring at him coldly! Immediately after, a spear pierced into his heart like a poisonous snake, and before his attention could be withdrawn from the scene in front of him, his life was slowly fading! Before he died, he heard a voice, "Don't look at it, get ready, it is estimated that they will only test this time!" When the time comes, our crossbow battalion will have an important mission! ”
The battle ahead is still going on, and it hasn't changed because of Xun Zheng's death!
After Xu Chu stopped Xun Zheng's war horse, he retreated in the excited yelling of his soldiers!
At this time, the big knife in his hand was stained with blood!
A knight grinned and brandished a ring-headed knife and slashed at him, but he only dodged dexterously, avoiding the collision of the war horse, and then slashed the knight off his horse with a big sword!
Before he could withdraw his broadsword, another knight had already arrived, and the same ring-headed knife slashed at him, heading him straight at him!
Xu Chu's big knife pulled back, and at the same time his arms forced, the big knife drew half a circle around his body, and the head of the knife had already reached behind him, and then, he roared, and a force split Huashan downward!
But not at the knight, but at the horse beneath him!
The war horse didn't even make a sound, so he cut off the horse's head with a knife, and after rushing forward a few steps, he fell to the ground with a bang, and at the same time, the knight was thrown out and hit several spears directly, and he was suddenly angry!
The ironclad army has already suffered a lot of casualties! After all, they are facing cavalry, and they have no cooperation with archers and no canopy protection! But they still won't retreat! Xu Chu, their leader, gave them a good start!
They roared angrily, the spears in front of them stuck in the ground, and the soldiers squatted on the ground, unable to move, but the people in the back rows stabbed the spears out of the cracks of people like spiritual snakes, stabbing to death all the non-local targets in front of them!
Those warriors with knives also waved the long knives in their hands frantically, and as long as there was a trace of strength, they would not stop until they died!
The spear entered the body, the long knife entered the body, and people kept falling off their horses or being knocked down by war horses, and the thousand knights of Yuan Shujun had no main general to command, like headless flies, and at this time, there were already many corpses and horses in front of the battle line, and the speed of the cavalry slowed down! …,
So, Xu Chu shouted, and several rows of ironclad soldiers in front of the front line immediately followed his footsteps, and the knights who had stopped fought together!
The cavalry has no speed, and its combat power is not as good as the infantry! What's more, these infantry are still Liu Bei's personal soldiers, and the warriors selected from the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Liu Bei's legion? The fierce warriors, after withstanding the crazy collision of the war horses, finally seized the opportunity to counterattack!
I saw that their long knives and spears were stabbed and slashed, and the knights of Yuan Shujun kept falling off their horses, the number of people was getting smaller and smaller, and the fights were becoming more and more unruly! They're terrified! This battle can't be fought!
So, I don't know who shouted and led the horse to flee into the distance, and the rest of the surviving knights naturally followed and fled!
Finally, the bursts of yellow smoke from the galloping horses slowly disappeared, and the remaining more than 700 ironclad warriors erupted into a wolf howl as they watched the cavalry of the Yuan Army, which was less than three hundred, flee away in panic! With a thousand infantry, a thousand cavalry, they did it!
Around them, many soldiers who had never experienced a battle formation also howled with them!
I don't know who shouted: "The lord wins!" ”
So, the shouts of "Lord Wansheng" slowly converged, and finally, the shouts of "Lord Wansheng" converged into one! Far away, spread to five miles away, Ji Ling's ears!
Under Liu Beijun's banner, there was a tall carriage, and there was a huge umbrella cover on the carriage, and under the umbrella stood Liu Bei, Lu Su, Liu Ye and others! They always watched the battle ahead, and when the shouts of "Lord Victory" were shouted, they knew that the front was victorious! The 1,000 ironclad army led by Xu Chu withstood the attack of the opponent's 1,000 infantry!
Liu Bei was sweating through his heavy clothes, and his hanging heart finally let go! Lu Su smiled all over his face and said to Liu Bei: "Lord, hehe, it seems that Boguang's plan has been completed!" Haha, I admire Boguang a little bit now! And only he can come up with such unconventional tactics! ”
Liu Bei listened to his words, and then he came back to his senses, and suddenly, he only felt a pain in his palms! When I looked closely, I was too involved in it, and my nails were torn in my palms!
He smiled and said, "Boguang has a genius!" It's just that this guy is too lazy! This tactic is indeed unexpected! However, the real test is yet to come! Let's look at the crossbow battalion! ”
Lu Su nodded and said, "Don't worry, lord!" The last time I fought with Cao Cao, the crossbow battalion at that time had just formed an army, and it was able to cause so much loss to the other party, this time their crossbows have increased, and the proficiency of the crossbowmen has also increased, which will definitely give us a bigger surprise! ”
Liu Bei also felt that he was a little too worried, and when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Lu Su and smiled slightly!
When he looked back, he found that a soldier was looking at him stupidly, and when he looked at it, it turned out to be one of the soldiers who had been replaced by his own guard! He smiled at the soldier, nodded again, and ignored him, instead turning his gaze back to the front.
He didn't know how much impact this little look, small smile and chin had on the soldier named Erdan! The second egg only feels like being in the clouds, and the lord ...... The lord, who is in charge of the life and death of more than two million people in Xuzhou, actually smiled at me?
Ji Ling's side!
It didn't take long for the three hundred cavalry to flee in front of Ji Ling, and after Ji Ling asked about the situation, he learned that the 1,000 ironclad soldiers were really strong, and they almost wiped out their 1,000 cavalry!
However, the result he wants is already there, knowing that the opponent has some archers, but there are not many of them, and there are no crossbows, which is enough! A thousand ironclad troops, no matter how strong the combat power is, can you withstand my nine thousand cavalry together?
As for Xun Zheng's death, he just felt a little sorry in his heart, the general will inevitably die on the battlefield, since he chooses to be a general, he must have the consciousness of dying on the battlefield! …,
After groaning slightly, he shouted: "Brothers, the time has come to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, rush with me!" ”
The cavalrymen shouted: "No! Kill, kill, kill! ”
After three loud roars, the morale of the cavalry was at its highest!
Driven by Ji Ling, thousands of cavalry slowly accelerated, and when they reached more than three hundred steps in front of Liu Beijun's infantry array, the speed had already reached the fastest!
The charge of these 8,000 cavalry is not the same as the charge of 1,000 cavalry! The momentum of destroying the world and giving up who else is suddenly palpitating!
However, at this time, Liu Beijun's soldiers were no longer flustered, originally, their panic was pretended! That was deliberately arranged by Tian Fan and others, just to confuse the other party! Especially the soldiers standing in the first row, they are all flexible guys drawn from various armies, and they have vividly interpreted this kind of panic, and the deceived Xun is just bitter!
Ji Ling couldn't care about it so much, at this time, he was only three hundred steps away from Liu Beijun, even if he found out the other party's intentions, it would be too late to turn or stop!
He looked at those ironclad soldiers, but was surprised to find that behind them, dozens of paces away, there was one more thing!
It was a thick piece of wood five feet high, and the top of the wood was ...... Seems to be alone?
Not bad! That's a person!
That person is the captain of the craftsman battalion and the captain of the crossbow battalion Zhou Ting! He stepped on two symmetrically distributed horizontal branches at the top of the wood, his body was firmly tied to the wood by several hemp ropes, and he was watching the other party's wild run with one hand to cover the dazzling sunlight!
The idea of tying people on a piece of wood was conceived by Tian Fan under a clever idea, specifically to climb high and look far away and observe the enemy's situation! This method is very suitable when setting up a formation in an emergency! A large log is placed horizontally, first tied people to one end, and then several powerful warriors slowly lift the wood, so that a simple and efficient watchtower is formed!
Zhou Ting looked at the Yuan Jun knights who were running wildly, watching them scream, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth! Mad, I'll make you crazy! Hmph, for a while, let you look good!
Finally, seeing that they were about to enter the predetermined range, Zhou Ting shouted: "Crossbow battalion, attack!" Give me a non-stop shot! ”
