Liu Zhaoji was unable to command the battle of the 1st A Battalion of the Guards Cavalry under Huaining City at this time.

The commander of the first battalion of the cavalry is Cao Shuhui, the nephew of Cao Wenzhao, who followed Zhou Yuji to participate in the rescue of King Qinqin in Beijing.

Although Zuo Liangyu hoped to use his own firearms battalion to block the first cavalry battalion, Zuo Liangyu's firearms battalion was just an infantry with bird guns as the main firearms.

Cao Shuhui decisively took Yan Yingyuan and the others to gallop before the firearms battalion began to load the fire rope.

"Kill!"

Yan Yingyuan shouted behind the commander Cao Shuhui, and hurriedly lit the fire rope with the three-eyed gun in his hand, and blasted at the firearms of the left army.

And Cao Shuhui pulled a strong bow, and even killed three left soldiers in a row with three heavy arrows.

The cavalry of the Guards rushed towards the left army like a meat-shaped tank, directly disrupted the left army's formation, and began to slash and kill.

The left army's firearms battalion collapsed directly and began to run frantically backwards, after all, the bird's guns in their hands were slow to fire, and if they could effectively organize three consecutive strikes, it would be okay, but at this time, they did not immediately organize three consecutive attacks, and the cavalry of the Guards on this side was not far from him, so as soon as they broke through the formation of the left army's firearms battalion, the left army's firearms were directly defeated.

The spear infantry of the left army was better, so they had to put their spears out to resist.

As Zuo Liangyu expected, the cavalry of the Guards had never experienced a big battle, and when they saw the spear, both the horses and the people were afraid, and they couldn't help but slow down.

Cao Shuhui also knew that even if the newly mounted cavalry was usually well trained, once they encountered sharp firearms or spears in this situation, they would be afraid, and they would not dare to be the first to try to break through the formation.

He knew that this was the time when he needed to take the lead as a commander.

Just as he followed the famous generals Cao Wenzhao and Zhou Yuji in the past, he knew that whether the cavalry could be invincible was that the generals were not afraid of death, and the soldiers did not dare to fight.

At this time, Cao Shuhui decisively shouted loudly: "The commanders of the standard associations must take the lead and rush forward, even if they are really afraid, even if they close their eyes, they have to rush up for me!" The war horse rushed once, and the next time he saw swords, guns and firearms, he would no longer be afraid, rush! ”

Cao Shuhui directly clamped his horse's legs and jumped towards a group of left troops who had the courage to put up spears to resist, but his war horse was still pierced through the abdomen due to inertia.

Cao Shuhui decisively changed to a horse before the horse fell, an old cavalryman like him has always counted horses alone, but this time, when the enemy was knocked into the camp by his first horse, he rushed in directly, directly drew his sword and harvested the heads of several left soldiers, and then continued to drive the war horse forward and gallop forward.

Yan Yingyuan also gritted his teeth and rushed towards the left army here, but he was quite lucky, the left army, who was just gritting his teeth and preparing to resist with a spear, saw the horses rushing at this moment, and the psychological defense line broke first, dropped the spear and ran back.

Yan Yingyuan didn't have time to pull the reins at all, and of course he wouldn't hold the reins, so he sat down on the war horse and directly trampled the fleeing Zuo army into pulp.

As soon as one cavalry rushes into the infantry camp, the following cavalry will be confident and immediately rush into the camp, and the entire infantry camp will be in chaos, and there will be no other way but to run back frantically.

Cao Shuhui glanced at Yan Yingyuan behind him: "Yan Dianshi, you have the courage, you didn't close your eyes just now!" But next time, remember that if there are infantry escaping, remember to bend down, the war horse is easy to slip on people, if people are still standing, it is easy to be used to falling to the ground, and there will be more than one person who will be trampled into flesh! ”

"General Xie reminds!"

Yan Yingyuan was already sweating all over his body at this time, although he gritted his teeth and rushed over, but he was also a little scared now, and when he heard Cao Shuhui say this, he was even more glad that his war horse did not step on the deviation just now, but just stepped on the back of the left army.

As soon as the Guards cavalry rushed over, they collided with the retreating cavalry of the Left Army.

The Guards had previously been trained in cavalry hedges, and knew how to reduce their own inertial damage while inflicting a large amount of damage on the enemy while colliding at high speed between two armies.

But at present, this left army was withdrawn in a panic, and there was no situation at all to fight the Guards cavalry, and as soon as they saw that the cavalry was coming, they simply detoured from the left and right flanks in an attempt to avoid the Guards cavalry.

"General, we can't let this cavalry go!"

Yan Yingyuan shouted loudly, he wanted to turn the horse's head directly to intercept the remnants of the left army who tried to withdraw from both sides, but he participated in the cavalry battle for the first time, and he didn't know how to command, so he could only remind Cao Shuhui.

Cao Shuhui stared at the front with deep eyes, did not speak, but personally raised the order flag and drew an order that the first to sixth standards were close to the right wing, and the seventh to twelfth standards were close to the left wing.

Only then did Yan Yingyuan remember that this kind of high-speed cavalry could not turn the horse's head when fighting, and it would be easy for his own cavalry behind him to collide, causing chaos in the formation and serious losses.

In this case, you can only adjust the direction slowly, and you can't hit it directly, but get close to the embedded, and use the scimitar to cut the enemy at high speed.

Under normal circumstances, in this kind of rapid galloping situation, the scimitar can easily break through the heavy armor of a person.

However, there were also new cavalrymen of the Guards who forgot the order for a while, although they knew that Cao Shuhui's order flag was to let them follow their commanders close to the cavalry of the left army, but when they were close, they also forgot to hold a scimitar and stab obliquely, but habitually cut it, and as a result, their arms were directly broken or directly broken.

Cao Shuhui could only shout to the cavalry beside him: "Diagonal stab!" Avoid head-on impacts! Kill! ”

Yan Yingyuan, while keeping his body balanced as much as possible, followed behind Cao Shuhui to break through the enemy's neck, and at the same time shouted to the cavalrymen he was in: "Take the lead, take the lead, hold the scimitar and stab diagonally to avoid impact!" ”

After a charge, more than 1,000 remnants of the cavalry of the left army were killed and wounded, and even those who were not killed and injured tripped and fell to the ground because the left army fell from their horses, causing chaos in the formation.

Seeing that the cavalry formation of the left army was in chaos, there was no way to retreat quickly.

Here, Cao Shuhui decisively waved the flag and ordered to slow down.

And the commander on the other side, the veteran of the border army, who also knew the old cavalry commander, also ordered to slow down.

"Release the horse's belly, pull the reins gently, and turn around as soon as the horse is no longer panting!"

Cao Shuhui said that after finishing the battle, he turned his horse's head first and killed the chaotic cavalry camp of the left army, this time he still fought closely, cutting and killing the left army that was still running on the horse to the ground.

Wait until half an hour later.

The more than 2,000 iron cavalry of the left army were all annihilated.

The remnants of the infantry of the left army were even more disorganized, and they only knew how to run outside, or to the base of the city wall, and the left defenders on the city wall did not dare to open the city.

As a result, a large number of left troops could only run outside the city walls.
