Chapter 958 Guan Yu shows his might
Because of this, Wang Tie thought of a countermeasure in the process of leading his troops to rush and kill, that is, no matter what, he could not follow in the footsteps of the Ankang cavalry. Either you don't impact, you have to hit and die, and you can't retreat in the face of heavy damage, at least even if you are a target, you must have the consciousness of being a target.
With this in mind, after seeing the cavalry of the Celestial Empire targeting his attack, he immediately shouted: "Bow your head and protect yourself with our excellent horsemanship." ”
The term equestrianism was already around at that time. It refers to cavalry who are good at riding horses.
Equestrianism, on the other hand, is described as the movement of the cavalry on a horse, as if it were moving from side to side on land to avoid distant bows and arrows.
The Western Regions are rich in healthy horses, the most famous ones are sweat and blood horses, Dawan horses, big black horses and so on. It is for this reason that the men here are proficient in some equestrian skills as long as the conditions permit.
Wang Tie let the soldiers use equestrian skills to avoid the bow and arrow attacks of the cavalry of the Celestial Empire, this approach is very wise, at least the soldiers have their own opinions after listening, some of them are a little clever, and they even leaned their bodies on the horse's back at the first time, and some people directly put their light bodies under the horse's back, looking from a distance, as if those healthy horses are ownerless.
The actions of the Great Xia cavalry did bring a lot of pressure to Guan Yu and the five thousand Zhangjia light cavalry on the opposite side, at least when they were the first to draw their bows and arrows and attack from afar, the damage they played was not even as good as one-third of the usual one.
A wave of bows and arrows attacked from afar, and less than 500 people were shot by the arrows.
This level of damage is obviously not the real level of the Zhang family's light cavalry. Their strength is long-range bow shots, and once they get close, their damage is much weaker.
"Shoot again!" Seeing that a wave of attacks didn't have much effect, Guan Yu shouted a little anxiously.
"Woooo
Soon, the second wave of bows and arrows of the Zhang family's light cavalry shot out from a distance, and this time it also did not have a good effect, and only injured hundreds of people on the other side.
Seeing that this continued, the other party rushed in front of them, and they only had two chances to shoot with a bow at most, and then everyone was going to meet each other at close quarters. And without an absolute superiority in troops, Guan Yu can imagine that even if this battle is won, I am afraid it will be a miserable victory.
Guan Yu is so proud, of course he doesn't want such a result. In a fit of rage, he made a decision that surprised even himself, "All the cavalry should retreat four miles and re-establish the new defensive line." ”
And after shouting these words, Guan Yu did rush towards the opposite, that is, the place where the elite cavalry of the Great Xia Kingdom came from.
Yes, he rode alone, which is quite a bit of the meaning of his solo trip to the banquet in Soochow in history. The difference is that at least everyone hasn't torn their faces at that time, but now it's on the battlefield.
With his legs clamping the light horse, the horse roared and then rushed forward, and in the process, the Qinglong Glaive had been swung by him at a rapid pace.
Originally, the distance of the other party was not too far, and after adding the rapid impact, after only a dozen breaths, Guan Yu had already come to the enemy cavalry team
Before, the big knife in his hand snapped towards a war horse that seemed to be unridden.
Of course, there will be no one on the horse, but the man on the horse has his body attached to the side of the horse's back, which can indeed protect him from the attack of the bow and arrow, after all, the whole person's range of movement has been reduced too much.
But it was precisely because he put his body on the horse's back that he was completely unprepared when facing Guan Yu's sudden slash, and when he wanted to stand up straight, regain control of the war horse, and even take out his weapon, he really didn't have such a chance.
As soon as the Qinglong Yanyue knife fell, the back of the war horse was like Mount Tai pressing the top of the mountain to bear the great gravity, and immediately the horse's hooves were soft, and he fell to the ground with a plop, and the poor soldier on the horse also flew out because of this move. Needless to say, flying out at such a speed, nine out of nine will not survive.
One blow, everything was within Guan Yu's expectations, he was originally infinitely powerful, and now he doesn't need to fight against people, he just needs to swing his knife and fall, this kind of action is not complicated, at least he can guarantee that he will do it a hundred times in a row without getting tired.
In this way, Guan Yu was impacted with the help of Chaoguang's war horse, while constantly shooting the Qinglong Glaive, as a result, a very shocking scene was formed around him, that is, one after another Western Regions horses were slapped to the ground, and one horse after another riding warriors were thrown out.
Even if there were occasional soldiers who reacted quickly and just straightened their bodies from the horseback, but when facing the extremely strong gravity of the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, they didn't have the strength to fight, and they were just photographed under the horse.
There were knights who were knocked down continuously, and the fallen horses also became an obstacle to the advance of the follow-up soldiers, and even many people were knocked down because of the fallen horses in front of them, and for a while, the battle line of the cavalry team that was advancing in an orderly manner began to be chaotic.
Taking advantage of this trace of chaos, Guan Yu took it as soon as he saw it, suddenly retracted the horse rope, and after turning a sharp turn of one hundred and eighty degrees, he hurried towards his own position.
Although Guan Yu was proud and a little arrogant, he was not arrogant enough to be able to defeat thousands of cavalry, what he did was just to prepare enough time for the Zhang family light cavalry behind him to counterattack and set up a formation, that is, the goal had been achieved, of course he was going to retreat.
Guan Yu withdrew, waiting for General Wang Tie to reassemble the cavalry line, where could he still find the figure of the envoy, and immediately the people were angry enough, "Continue to attack, we have enough numerical advantages, don't be afraid of them." ”
The elite cavalry of the Great Xia Kingdom began its continued shock journey. In comparison, although they had advanced more than six miles in this meeting, the space did not actually play a role in the slightest. Because just three miles away, the five thousand Zhangjia light cavalry had already drawn their bows and were waiting for their arrival.
Guan Yu rode back on a super light horse, and he didn't need to give any more orders, and the small teams in the army commanded the archers around them to start a counterattack.
At a distance of three miles, as long as the opponent gets closer, you can use a bow and arrow to start shooting and killing the enemy.
It was another round of repeating the previous action, and no less than a thousand cavalrymen of the Great Xia Kingdom were killed by arrows, but under the superb equestrian skills, the distance between the two sides began to get closer again. "Everyone four miles back!" It's the same order again, off
Yu jumped out of the horse twice.
Just now, Guan Yu got a short rest, and the whole person was much more energetic, and when he rode the war horse again, the confidence in his eyes did not diminish at all just now.
"Again!" Seeing that it was the enemy general riding out alone, Wang Tie, who was in the Chinese army, saw this scene, and his eyes rolled a little angrily.
If the other party just now wanted to take advantage of his inattention and catch him off guard, there is still a fate to succeed. But how could the same thing make him suffer a second time. Immediately, he shouted, "The front army is pestering him, and General Ben wants to let him come and go." ”
In fact, without Wang Tie's orders, when they saw Guan Yu prancing his horse coming, the cavalrymen of the Great Xia Kingdom who were rushing to the front and were still playing equestrianism slowed down one by one, sitting on their horses, holding their respective weapons, as if they were facing a great enemy.
The change was seen by Guan Yu, and a look of disdain flashed. Guan Yu suddenly stopped his horse, and then hit his horse back, looking like that, he had no intention of fighting at all.
The goal of Guan Yu's impact was not to kill people, how many people could be injured in such a short period of time with his own strength? All he wants is for the opponent's speed to be sharpened, so if the goal is achieved, why bother to risk his life to kill?
Guan Yu actually went back like this, causing the vanguard cavalry who were ready to fight stunned. But when they saw that the cavalry of the Celestial Empire not far away had settled down again and prepared their bows and arrows, they knew that they had been fooled, but at this moment, it seemed that it was too late to do something.
Looking at the picture of the former army that doesn't work and stops, Wang Tie in the Chinese army hates it to the core. He didn't expect that the other party would only send a general and cause his army to be frustrated twice.
On the battlefield, what is important is to be as grand as the momentum, and what is important is to fight to the end. And two or three times of discouragement like this, that blow to morale is very powerful.
Just like now, it is obvious that the offensive and sharpness of the cavalry is not as good as before, and all this is caused by the enemy general.
As one of the Eight Great Divine Warriors of the Western Regions, Wang Tie has his own pride, especially that he can get the full support of his father-in-law, that is, Wang Can, the king of Great Xia, in everything he does, which makes him feel superior to the other Eight Great Divine Warriors.
Under such conditions and circumstances, there is no reason why he should not win the battle, and there is no reason why he will lose to others. But today, Guan Yu's appearance has disrupted everything, although he has not lost the battle yet, but just those two scenes just now are the capital for others to talk and laugh at him, which he can't accept in his heart.
"The whole army is impacting, don't care what the other party is going to do, kill me!" Wang Tie was really angry, not only his face was terrifyingly red, but his heart was also dripping blood. He thinks that Guan Yu has played tricks on himself, and if he wants to win back face, he must kill this person.
Under Wang Tie's anger, more than 6,000 elite cavalry of the Great Xia Kingdom launched an attack again. This is the difference between elite and ordinary soldiers, they can be defeated, but that kind of momentum is really not easily defeated.
As soon as Guan Yu rode back to the camp, he saw that the opponent's cavalry began to attack again, and it seemed to be even more imposing than before, because many enemy cavalry did not rely on horsemanship, but rushed straight forward like this.
