Chapter 396: The Great War of the Six Kingdoms (2)

"Don't let me down."

Ming Guan led nearly 200,000 Han troops and was responsible for monitoring and intercepting the Persian Empire's army.

From time to time, sand and dust flew on the Gobi, and a burst of yellow sand swept under the horse's hooves.

Chang Yuchun, Murong Ba, Li Chengliang, Zu Dashou, Ao Bai, Lu Xiangsheng and other generals rode war horses and followed Mingguan.

The opponent of the Western Route Army was the Persian army led by Ardashir, the lord of the Persian Empire.

The Persian Empire was a civilization that flourished in the Cold Weapon Age, and its emperor considered himself the "King of Kings" with a powerful cavalry.

Mingguan may not be sure to hold back the Persian Empire's army with the strength of five princes.

"If the Persian Empire comes to attack, the infantry under the command of Lian Po will hold on, Chang Yuchun and Li Mu will each lead a cavalry as the flank, Murong Ba will lead the heavy cavalry as a reserve, and the rest of the generals will listen to orders under their command. With Yao Guangxiao as the mastermind and Sun Bin as the military advisor. ”

Mingguan appointed top military generals as commanders, and distributed military generals to various commanders, such as Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting under Lian Po's account to share the pressure of Lian Po, and Li Chengliang and Zu Dashou served as deputy generals under Murong Ba.

All the generals are aware of the possibility of a big war and are ready to fight to the death.

At the end of the Gobi, the yellow sand was filled, a black line appeared, and everyone subconsciously clenched the weapons in their hands. The slender black lines gradually thickened, and row after row of tall horses appeared, and the well-armored cavalry was pressed in black. The civilizations of Central and West Asia have excellent war horses that are the envy of both the East and the West.

Countless cavalry stopped at a distance of four hundred meters from the Han army, and the black cavalry army was endless. The Parthian heavy cavalry, composed of Persian nobles, was armed with Parthian spears, and was equipped with secondary weapons such as recurved compound bows, short swords, maces, and battle axes, with scale or chain mail as the main armor. At the foreground are the Immortal Heavy Cavalry, armed with thicker iron armor, with steel girdles glowing with cold light, showing the power of the King of Kings of Persia!

On the flanks of the Persian Empire were Parthian archers, ten times outnumbered the ironclad cavalry. The cavalry was like a cloud, and the bows and arrows were like rain.

The Han Empire, the Persian Empire, two elite armies confronted each other in the Gobi.

The Han army was dominated by a mixture of infantry and cavalry, and the Persian army was dominated by cavalry.

"The Persian Empire was dominated by cavalry, but they had an 'undead army' in their history, the heavy infantry of the First Persian Empire. The Third Persian Empire also had a 10,000-strong 'Immortal' heavy cavalry. The most terrible thing is not their archers, but their heavy cavalry, which will destroy the enemy as soon as the formation is disturbed by bows and arrows. ”

Mingguan faced the Persian Empire, which had a large number of ironclad cavalry and high-level troops, and did not necessarily have a chance of winning, after all, he represented only part of the strength of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Persian Empire poured all its national strength.

A small group of cavalry rushed out of the camp of the Persian Empire and came to the camp of the Han Empire to announce the intentions of the Persian lords.

The cavalry in front of the battle came forward and conveyed: "My lord, the Persian Empire wants us to retreat and give up the main city to them. They were not willing to be enemies of our Han Empire. ”

Huma sneered: "If the Persian Empire wants to take the main city, it is to be our enemy. They will pass through this place unless they step on our corpses. ”

Mingguan said: "Tell them that we also don't want to be enemies of the Persian Empire, let them attack other main cities, and we want the main cities in the west." ”

The cavalry of the Han army came to the front of the Persian Empire and conveyed the meaning of Mingguan and other princes to the army of the Persian Empire.

The Middle Route Army and the Eastern Route Army behind Ming Guan and others have already begun to act, and if they give up a passage to the Persian Empire, it will be equivalent to directly causing the total annihilation of the Middle Route Army and the Eastern Route Army.

The announcement of the Han cavalry made the lords of the Persian Empire whisper in private.

This Han army, which was only half the number of the Persian Empire's army, dared to take the initiative to intercept them.

"Ardashir, are we going to destroy this Han army? Or is it waiting for reinforcements to arrive? ”

All the lords of the Persian Empire looked at Ardashir, the first lord of the Persian Empire.

"Wait any longer, the main city has been breached, and in order to capture the main city, you can only take risks."

Ardashir looked at the Han army in front of him, the other party's determination was more resolute than he thought, but he had confidence in the ironclad cavalry of the Persian Empire, and the Persian army with cavalry as the main force would give the other party a hard lesson.

……

Rumble!

The giant battering ram slammed into the city gate, and the giant wood wrapped in iron was pushed by the combined force of countless Mughal infantry to completely shatter the heavy city gate, and the hearts of all the defenders sank.

Ant-like Mughal infantry stormed the narrow passage of the castle, and at the end of it, a group of militiamen set up a fence and armed with spears and bows to resist the onslaught of Mughal soldiers.

"The main city is at your fingertips!"

The thirty-six Mughal princes couldn't help but rejoice when they saw that the city gates were broken and the walls were full of Mughal soldiers.

As long as the Mughal Empire took this impregnable fortress, with a huge army of millions, no civilization could consume them.

Da, da, da!

Iron hooves sounded, and some of the keen generals subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves sounded.

Although the dense sound of horses' hooves was somewhat inaudible compared to the noisy shouts of slaughter on the main battlefield, someone noticed that a cavalry was approaching.

This is not the cavalry of the Mughal Empire, because the princes of the Mughal Empire have not yet given the order for the cavalry to move.

The first to react were the scout cavalry scattered around!

When the Han army launched a surprise attack, the scout cavalry scattered around quickly gathered on the main force and informed the main force of the terrible news - a large number of cavalry was rapidly approaching the main battlefield!

When the scout cavalry returned, the cavalry of the Han army soon appeared on the edge of the battlefield!

The sand and dust were rolling, and the 30,000 heavy cavalry began to accelerate, forming a torrent of steel, and the Gobi was trembling, leaving behind the horse's hoof prints visible to the naked eye!

This Han cavalry, with Chu Tian, Wei Qing, and Cao Cao as the main commanders, provided the aura of the whole army, Huo Quzhi, Mu Guiying, Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Hua Xiong, Shi Wansui, Lu Bu, Yang Dayan, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Yan Liang, Wen Chou...... A hundred force-type fierce generals are dressed in heavy cavalry armor, ranking at the forefront of the heavy cavalry, and are used as high-level heavy cavalry!

With a hundred fierce generals as high-level equipment heavy cavalry, such a big deal is only to strengthen the impact of the Han army's heavy cavalry!

The heavy cavalry of the Han army is composed of high-level heavy cavalry and ordinary heavy cavalry such as the Tiger Ben Army, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the Tun Cavalry, the Golden Fire Cavalry, the Youzhou Cavalry, the Northern Wei Tiger Pattern Armored Cavalry, the Xiaoguo Army, and the Houliang Longxiang Army.

If the 30,000 heavy cavalry can't cut through the million-strong army, once they are surrounded by the million-strong army, the high-level heavy cavalry that loses speed will be overwhelmed by the dense crowd tactics on the opposite side.

Many of the troops carried by the princes of the Mughal Empire were high-level troops, not low-level cannon fodder that could be defeated in one blow, so they had to be fully engaged in one battle!

When the 30,000 Han heavy cavalry appeared on the edge of the battlefield, the Mughal Empire's army, which learned of the arrival of the Han army, was in chaos, and all the princes were urgently gathering their respective armies to defend themselves.

There are too many princes of the Mughal Empire, because of the use of crowd tactics to siege the city, the armies of various princes are mixed, and it takes a lot of time to readjust the formation!

The archers on the outskirts of the Mughal Empire shot iron armored beasts, and the rain of arrows collided with pieces of iron, but the damage to the high-level heavy cavalry was only a handful!

The terrifying torrent of steel did not give the Mughal Empire a chance, and slammed into the outer armies of the Mughal Empire from the flanks!

A hundred fierce generals armed with various weapons served as the spearheads of the 30,000 Han heavy cavalry!

The first row of Mughal infantry was directly knocked away by 30,000 Han iron cavalry, and the steel torrent formed by the Han army's iron cavalry was like a bulldozer, crushing through, and countless Mughal infantry and archers were trampled by half-ton steel beasts!

"Die!"

Lu Bu held Fang Tian's halberd in his hand, and killed the oncoming Mughal generals with one move, and the head of the big man flew up!

Mu Guiying held the pear flower spear in his hand, charging all the way, with the inertia brought by the charge of the war horse, almost not using much force, the spear could easily stab the enemy to death.

"Drink!"

Guan Yu picked up the Qinglong Glaive Knife in his hand, killing one with one sword! Everywhere you go, the first level lands!

"There are so many of these birdmen!"

Zhang Fei scolded and scolded, stabbing to death a Mughal imperial cavalry standing in front with a spear!

Huo Quzhi, Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Shi Wansui and other fierce generals joined forces to advance, and the momentum was like a bamboo, and it was like entering a no-man's land, and no one could stop their charge!

Dian Wei and Joan of Arc and Li Xiuning were responsible for protecting Chu Tian, and in order to provide the aura of the whole army, Chu Tian had to follow the Han army's heavy cavalry to advance!

Not only "Han Wu", Chutian also has a characteristic that is not the aura of the whole army, but it can also play a huge role in this battle, that is, "Tian Khan"!

"Tian Khan" has a suppressive effect on the army of the Mughal Empire, and it is easy to make the other party afraid and confused!

The old Qin also had a fierce general to escort - Yang Dayan, a fierce general of the Northern Wei Dynasty in the same era as Mulan.

Yang Dayan's force was much higher than Mulan's, and with a wave of the horse lance in his hand, he killed several enemies along the way with one move, followed by Lao Qin, and served as Lao Qin's guard.

It was precisely because of Yang Dayan as a guard that Lao Qin dared to use Lu Bu with confidence.

A hundred Eastern Han generals slaughtered the Mughal Empire army along the way, tearing a gap, and the 30,000 heavy cavalry in the rear formed a cone formation to tear open the wounds of the Mughal Empire army!

The soldiers of the Mughal Empire turned on their backs, and tens of thousands of Mughal soldiers were killed on the spot in one impact!

The Rajput cavalry, known as the "Indian warriors" of the Mughal Empire, was the first to react, and tens of thousands of Rajput cavalry tried to stop the cavalry of the Han Empire!

This group of Rajput cavalry didn't know that Chu Tian was so mad that he used a hundred fierce generals as the vanguard, and the fierce generals were as cheap as cabbage in Chu Tian's eyes!

When tens of thousands of Rajput cavalry clashed with the Han cavalry, Lu Bu, Xue Rengui, Mu Guiying, Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Shi Wansui, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other fierce generals broke into the Rajput cavalry, ignoring the Damascus knives of the Rajput cavalry, beating and rushing, killing thousands of Rajput cavalry in a row!

Guan Yu turned into a humanoid meat grinder, the Qinglong Glaive Knife was stained red with blood, and the armor of the Rajput cavalry was as fragile as paper in front of the Qinglong Glaive Knife, which was an emperor-level weapon, Guan Yu slashed one by one!

"You deserve a gun, too?!"

The hundred-pound iron spear in Wang Tie's hand was used by him as a blunt weapon, and the head of the oncoming Rajput cavalry was smashed and bleeding, and he was invincible!

Behind Wang Tielan, there was the Houliang Longxiang Army recruited by Xu Fengnian for him, which was originally one of the hole cards used to deal with the Guanzhong Army of the Old Qin, and at this time it was also involved in the big war with the Mughal Empire!

Meng Tian uses his halberd to harvest the Rajput cavalry, and behind him are the exaggeratedly costumed golden fire cavalry!

The "Indian warriors" were quickly destroyed, when the 30,000 Han heavy cavalry crushed by, tens of thousands of Rajput cavalry were routed, and more than 10,000 Rajput cavalry died under the iron hooves of the torrent of steel, and the death was tragic!

After the 30,000 heavy cavalry of the Han army tore through the enemy formation, Xu Rong, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahoudun, Yang Ye, Zhang Liao, Ashina Sheer, Chen Tang, Gao Xianzhi, Li Hu and other cavalry generals commanded 120,000 light cavalry to rush forward, once again tearing open the wounds of the Mughal Empire's army, and the Mughal Empire's army was completely cracked!

Among the 400,000 Han troops, cavalry alone accounted for 150,000, and the vast majority of them were high-level cavalry!

Xiahou Yuan bent his bow and arrows, constantly shooting Indian Mughal cavalry, he mechanically took arrows from the quiver and shot, and the arrows did not miss.

Chen Tang, the famous general of the Western Regions Protectorate, held a spear, and his appearance made the surrounding foreign cavalry tremble.

As one of the most relied on Turkic generals under the command of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, Ashina Sheer was ruthless in dealing with the army of the Mughal Empire in India, and killed more than a dozen Rajput cavalry who were routed by heavy cavalry with a single horse lance!

Yang Ye and Zhang Liao cooperated tacitly, divided a team of cavalry, rushed left and right, and disrupted the enemy formation! Although there were only more than a thousand wolf riders around them, they swept by like a whirlwind, and everywhere they went, the morale of the enemy army dropped rapidly!

120,000 light cavalry harvested the enemy scattered after the heavy cavalry assault, and slashed countless people with swords in their hands!

"Heavy infantry! Send out Sikh hoplites! ”

"Shivaji, call in the war elephant troops!"

"What are the Maratha Union cavalry doing?!"

"Pile them to death with crowd tactics!"

When the princes of the Mughal Empire saw the heavy cavalry of the Han army trapped, they immediately dispatched their troops.

Continue to let the heavy cavalry of the Han army assault on, and the million-strong army will collapse on all fronts!

30,000 brave Sikh heavy infantry temporarily assembled, the shields fell to the ground, and the spears were placed on top of the shields, forming a dense wall of spear shields, only they had hope of blocking the Han heavy cavalry!

The 30,000 Han heavy cavalry could not avoid it, and fiercely attacked the phalanx of Sikh heavy infantry!

The Sikh heavy infantry still underestimated the impact of the Han heavy cavalry, and in front of the Han heavy cavalry was a fierce general at the level of 10,000 enemies!

The Qinglong Glaive swept away, cutting off the spear in front of him, and the heavy iron hooves trampled on the shield, Guan Yu was condescending, and with one sword, the Sikh heavy infantry company with the shield was cut in two!

Hundreds of fierce generals simply broke through the phalanx of Sikh heavy infantry with their own force, and the flood of heavy cavalry in the rear rushed in, and the phalanx of Sikh heavy infantry that was not fully formed rushed to pieces!
