Chapter 798: Beast Army (I)
"Your Majesty, Liu Xiu's cavalry has returned."
Yan You appeared in front of Wang Mang and reported to him.
"How many people did Liu Xiu bring?"
"About 30,000 people."
"He's finally here, and this time he's going to wipe them out. Let the Big Mac come to see me. ”
Wang Mang is murderous.
Liu Xiu is his mortal enemy, although Liu Xiu does not know it, Wang Mang undoubtedly regards Liu Xiu as his number one enemy.
The ground was trembling, and the fierce giant came over, and Wang Mang had to look up at this humanoid beast. The strength of the Big Mac is already incredible, far beyond ordinary people.
"My biggest enemy, Liu Xiu, he will lead the cavalry to come, and if you kill him for me, then you will be the Marquis of Wanhu, and you will have countless glory and wealth in your life. Legions of beasts must be wielded when necessary. ”
"Yes."
"I don't believe that my army of 800,000 will lose to tens of thousands."
Wang Mang waved his army, besieged the city with only 100,000 men, and then met the army of Liu Xiu and Chutian with 700,000 troops.
A group of soldiers and horses were deployed along the water and Kunshui, and the cavalry of Liu Xiu and Chutian had already crossed Dingling County and approached Wang Mang's army.
Wang Mang had hundreds of thousands of troops, but he was on the defensive.
"Your Majesty also looks down on this group of Green Forest Army generals too much, and even met the Green Forest Army with twenty times the strength of the army. When I lead 50,000 cavalry and kill Liu Xiu, Your Majesty will know that there is no need to make a big fuss at all. You lead 50,000 infantry to cover me. ”
Dasikong Wangyi felt incomprehensible about Wang Mang's approaching the enemy, so he joined forces with Situ Wangxun.
Liu Xiu and Chu Tian recruited the Green Forest Army outside, but they only recruited more than 10,000 people.
Here in Wangyi, there are no less than 50,000 cavalry alone, which is more than Chu Tian's troops outside the city combined.
Wang Yi and Wang Xun planned to take the initiative to attack and kill Chu Tian and Liu Xiu, two henchmen.
Liu Xiu rushed to the front with three thousand dead soldiers, encountered a new army outside, and without saying a word, he rushed directly into the enemy formation, and actually killed dozens of people himself, which made Chu Tian can't help but look sideways.
Unexpectedly, Liu Xiu's force was not bad.
Liu Xiu's talent seems to have been activated by this battle of Kunyang, and the battle is even braver than usual.
Liu Xiu's actions inspired generals such as Ma Wu and Wang Ba, as well as the 17,000 Green Forest Army he recruited, and the morale of the generals and soldiers gradually recovered and adjusted to the best state.
Liu Xiu dared to rush ahead, and Chu Tian also held a bow and shot the scouts of the new army who came out to reconnoiter from time to time.
Chu Tian hadn't made a move for a long time, but Chu Tian was still very cautious, just releasing cold arrows in the back.
Not everyone is a son of the plane, and their luck may not be as good as Liu Xiu's.
"There is a group of cavalry approaching us, the sand is flying, and I don't know the geometry of the opponent's soldiers!"
"They don't have many soldiers and horses, it's just a bluff, attack it!"
Wang Yi led 50,000 cavalry in Kunshui and had an encounter with the cavalry advancing by Chutian and Liu Xiu!
Wang Yi wanted to make military exploits in front of Wang Mang because of Wang Mang's personal expedition, so that he could be crowned king in the future.
50,000 cavalry of the new army launched an attack on the cavalry of the Han army of Chu Tian and Liu Xiu!
Wang Xun commanded 50,000 foot soldiers and supported Wang Yi in the rear.
The two of them only took 100,000 soldiers and horses, thinking that it was enough to deal with the Green Forest Army.
The war eagle soared in the air, Chu Tian had already learned in advance of the arrival of the cavalry of the new army, and with a wave of his right hand, all the cavalry met Wang Yi's cavalry!
"Ladies and gentlemen, the defenders of Kunyang City are still waiting for us to go back to support, we can't let them down!"
Liu Xiu held the spear in his right hand and took the initiative to attack again.
He had built up confidence that he could defeat Wang Mang in one go.
Although Chu Tian didn't understand why Liu Xiu had confidence, or did he say that his confidence was just to stabilize the morale of the soldiers of the Green Forest Army.
Two cavalry teams fight in Kunshui!
Liu Xiu took the initiative to attack, and Chu Tian followed, and he couldn't let Liu Xiu, the son of the plane, die like this, otherwise it would be more difficult for Chu Tian to defeat Wang Mang's army, which was twenty times the strength of the army.
Liu Xiu stabbed one of the cavalrymen in the shoulder, and after the latter was wounded, he was killed by the dead soldiers of the Green Forest Army who galloped later!
The chilly saber has fallen, and the cavalry of the new army has fallen!
"The general is so brave, we can't hold the general back!"
Ma Wu, Wang Ba and other generals found that Liu Xiu once again rushed forward regardless of life and death, and was inspired, and the 13,000 Green Forest Army in the rear, under the leadership of various generals, divided their troops and marched together, and attacked Wangyi's cavalry!
However, the most ferocious was the cavalry unit that Zhao Yun provided bonuses for the vanguard and Chu Tian.
Eight thousand white horses are divided into left and right, and they are good at riding and archery, using bows and arrows for cover, and intertwined arrow nets to harvest the lives of enemy soldiers.
And the heavy cavalry units such as the Tiger Army, the Tun Cavalry Battalion, and the Xuanjia Army attacked head-on, and the iron hooves directly stepped on the corpses of the cavalry of the new army and crushed them!
Wang Yi originally planned to kill Chu Tian and Liu Xiu in one fell swoop with superior forces and ask Wang Mang for credit, but when he really fought with the Han army composed of Chu Tian and Liu Xiu, Wang Yi found that he completely underestimated the cavalry of the two!
Bai Ma Yicong shot thousands of bows and arrows, and at least five hundred cavalry of the New Army were shot!
Zhao Yun led a heavy cavalry and quickly broke through the layers of cavalry of the new army!
Wang Yi couldn't help but tremble, Chutian's heavy cavalry had a tendency to directly break the formation!
If 50,000 cavalry is broken by thousands of heavy cavalry, then it can only mean that the formation is not capable of fighting at all!
Zhao Yun rushed all the way, and the enemies who were stained with the gentian bright silver spear along the way were all assassinated by Zhao Yun.
One of Wang Yi's generals held a hammer to fight Zhao Yun, but before the hammer could be raised, he was killed by Zhao Yun with one shot!
On the other side, Liu Xiu's bonus to the legion was also very considerable, and the Green Forest Army, which was originally a rabble, was under his command, and he did not show weakness in the face of the new army.
The 3,000 dead soldiers under Liu Xiu's personal command even overwhelmed the cavalry of the New Army, and had combat power comparable to that of special troops.
Ma Wu held a big knife and slashed left and right, and the cavalry of the new army on the opposite side was basically one by one.
The black-faced Ma Wu is also a fierce general among the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, and his strength is not low!
"The rebel army sent by heaven is really brave, if I can also have such a strong cavalry......"
Liu Xiu caught a glimpse of Chu Tian's Xuanjia Army and Tiger Ben Army crushing them head-on, and couldn't help but envy Chu Tian's troops.
He rarely had the idea of climbing up until he was in power.
The 50,000 cavalry of the New Army was broken by two people, and Wang Yi could only choose to flee in the wilderness.
"Hunt down!"
Chu Tian and Liu Xiu will not let go of the opportunity to pursue the victory.
"How could their cavalry be so terrible?"
Wang Yi's 50,000 cavalry was easily defeated, and he was terrified, and in order to save his own life, he could only die under the protection of the guards.
He vaguely knew why Wang Mang was like a great enemy, the combination of Chu Tian and Liu Xiu was already full of threats!
The 50,000 foot soldiers led by Wang Xun fell behind, and he was waiting for Wang Yi to fight with Chutian and Liu Xiu, both of them were defeated, and he stepped forward to harvest in order to ask Wang Mang for credit.
However, the speed of Wang Yi's defeat and retreat was too fast, causing Wang Xun to have no time to react, and the defeated cavalry of Wang Yi's army instead scattered Wang Xun's infantry army.
And in the rear, Chu Tian and Liu Xiu led the cavalry in hot pursuit!
This is the advantage of cavalry, if you want to go, the enemy can't stop it, and it's not so easy for the enemy to go!
"There's another enemy army ahead!"
"Break it in one fell swoop!"
Chu Tian and Liu Xiu were already a little crazy at this time, and they didn't care what kind of legion they were on the other side, they just had to defeat the other party in one go!
The hapless Wang Xun and his men were attacked by heavy cavalry and dead soldiers, and they were quickly defeated, and there were remnants of defeated soldiers everywhere.
Wang Mang recruited soldiers and horses from all over the world, and these soldiers and horses came from various counties, although there were many people, but the hearts of the people were uneven, and they fought for themselves.
"I'm Situ Wang Xun, get out of the way!"
Wang Xun, under the protection of his own soldiers, retreated to the rear, but was blocked by the soldiers who were in a mess.
He had already begun to curse, and he knew that he should not have sent troops to attack without authorization, and he should join forces with Wang Mang.
Although Wang Mang may not have much military talent, his intelligence should not be low.
The sound of the Han army's horses' hooves was getting closer and closer, and Wang Xun heard the sound of the horses' hooves from far to near, and his heart was even more panicked, and his palms were full of sweat.
Zhao Yun pursued Wang Xun all the way to the back of Wang Xun, and with his gun down, he killed the figure who looked like an important general of the new army.
Wang Xun still couldn't believe it before he died, their army of 100,000 was defeated by more than 30,000 people so easily, and he, Wang Xun, was ranked as the third duke and had a noble status, and he was killed by an unknown general.
Wang Yi led the cavalry, and he also had a hand in escaping, but Wang Xun became a substitute ghost and was killed by Zhao Yun.
Wang Yi hurriedly fled back to the camp and explained to Wang Mang that Wang Xun had died in battle.
"What should you be guilty of sending troops without permission!?"
Wang Mang originally planned to annihilate Liu Xiu's army, but Wang Yi and Wang Xun sent troops without authorization, which almost disrupted Wang Mang's plan, and Situ Wang Xun died like this.
Situ was one of the three dukes, and he was regarded as a core member of the imperial court, and his disadvantage was unfavorable, which invisibly hit the morale of the officers and soldiers.
"Wang Yi is willing to apologize with death!"
"That's it, it's really unlucky to change generals on the spot. You and I will defeat Liu Xiu's army together and make up for it. ”
In the end, Wang Mang did not punish Wang Yi, but began to frantically mobilize troops and horses, wanting to resist the offensive of Chu Tian and Liu Xiu.
The other party is not many in number, but it is on the offensive, in Wang Mang's opinion, this is unimaginable, but this is the kind of thing, but it happened!
"Big Mac, it's time for you and your beast army to go into battle, as well as the Nine Tigers of the Northern Army, I have summoned you, high-ranking officials and Houlu, the purpose is to kill Liu Xiu, and now the time has come for you to serve me. Don't let me down. ”
Wang Mang directly sent his ace army, targeting Chu Tian and Liu Xiu.
Armored wagons with fierce beasts were guarded by armor soldiers and entered the battlefield.
"I will drive the expedition in person, and I will meet this Liu Xiu for a while."
Wang Mang seemed to have made up his mind, and after the appearance of his long-feared rival, he finally chose to face a strong enemy.
When Chu Tian and Liu Xiu were still chasing and killing Wang Yi and Wang Xun's defeated soldiers, they saw the arrival of Wang Mang's army all over the mountains, hundreds of iron cage carriages appeared on the battlefield, and the roar of the tiger division was heard from time to time, so they immediately shrank their forces.
At the same time, there are also war elephants and rhinoceros forming an army on the battlefield.
"This is the tiger, lion and rhino that I have collected from all over the world for several years, and the Big Mac has the ability to drive them, and you will regret being the enemy of them."
Wang Mang drove the expedition in person, with the giant Mac as the vanguard, Yan You commanded the tiger army and the light cavalry as the flanks, and personally commanded tens of thousands of elite soldiers of the Northern Army, plus the boundless low-level county soldiers, which was enough to sweep the world.
However, such a force was used against more than 30,000 people.
Even so, Wang Mang even thought that there were not enough troops.
