055, sure enough, it's you

Previous Chapter

At least nearly 10,000 enemy troops came to help. This is very much in line with the characteristics of the Oshiren, who have always liked to win wars with overwhelming numerical superiority.

Even if there is a fight between ordinary people, and the other party is only three or five people, they will very exaggeratedly shout hundreds of thousands of accomplices to fight each other.

"Brothers, hold on—"

"In the last battle, never retreat—"

"I've run out of arrows—"

"I've blunted the Mo knife—"

"I'm here in one breath, even if I bite with my teeth, I want to bite these beasts to death-"

Huo Yun constantly encouraged everyone's fighting spirit.

Tang Bing's side was pitch black, which was deliberately done by Huo Yun. You are defending, and the opponent is attacking. If they want to attack, they will shoot torches, and they will naturally expose themselves.

As soon as the enemy attacked, there was a heavy formation, about 200 people.

Funnily enough, they couldn't see where Tang Bing was at all. can only rely on the shouts of Tang Bing to roughly judge a direction.

In the heavy party formation, one out of every three people is a torch, but the range that the torch can illuminate is very limited, but his iron armor is very eye-catching.

They can only slow down and discredit the advance.

It was so dark that I could see the cliff of the wolf's tooth sword, and I heard these heavily armored soldiers fall down a dozen times.

The people were wearing heavy armor, and the horses were also wearing heavy armor, and a dozen horses in the front row fell down, and the ones in the back row also pressed up. In a mess, both horses and people who were pressed down on the bottom spurted blood from their mouths and noses on the spot, and they died.

It turned out that on the periphery of Ma Shuo's horse rejection array, those reserve Tang soldiers were idle, and they also dug out a horse trap for the boss.

His pit was either one of those that could sink the whole horse into it, or it was two laps larger than the horse's hooves, a foot and a half deep.

Once the horse's hooves are stepped in, a stumble will inevitably break the legs.

It was densely packed, and there were more than 2,000 dug up.

These Tang soldiers also thought very clearly, in this blocking battle, there was no life in ten deaths, and they had to defend the wolf's tooth sword road to death, as for the terrain on the periphery, they could be tossed hard, and they didn't think they would ride out on horseback anyway.

The rest of the heavy armoured soldiers hurriedly reined in their horses and retreated, and someone behind them would come to the rescue of the fallen horses and men, and they themselves bypassed the other side and continued to advance.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen horses were trapped.

The war horses of the heavy armor soldiers are all good horses in a hundred, and the soldiers are also strong and strong. I haven't seen where Tang Bing is, and I have been killed and wounded more than 30 horsemen.

At first, they thought it was a gerbil's nest, but now they finally realized that it was a trap dug by Tang Bing.

The rest of the heavy armoured men reined in their horses and stopped where they were. Several people began to shout behind them.

Huo Yun heard it really well, those people asked to suspend the attack, and a large number of horse traps were found on the ground, which must be eliminated in time.

The light horsemen of the other side dismounted, and came over with torches to clear the pit.

They used their scimitars to cut through the weeds on the ground, revealing small black holes, not very deep, that could be filled by digging up the sand near the holes.

However, after all, it was more than 2,000 potholes, and it was an operation in the middle of the night, coupled with the constant shooting of the Tang soldiers.

The enemy lost at least 3,000 men before the traps were completely removed. Despite the heavy losses, they can only do this. Otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to touch the edge of Tang Bing.

And, most importantly, they also saw the ** Ma Shuo rejection formation and the shield formation behind them nearby.

Huo Yun took out at least a thousand horses to arrange this formation. He brought a total of 2,000 men, which means that 1,000 of them abandoned Ma Shuo, leaving only Mo swords, horizontal swords, and bows and arrows as weapons.

These horses are radially discharged outwards and deep into the ground, causing great psychological deterrence to the enemy.

The enemy tentatively sent a small group of heavy cavalry to try to knock the horses down with their spears. They rode on horses and used spears to call those horses, but it didn't work at all, it was completely futile.

And once you get close, you have to be careful of the stones thrown by the Tang soldiers - that's right, Huo Yun asked people to collect all the stones thrown by the enemy soldiers at the other end of the gorge and transport them for later use.

Tang Bing used the reins of horses to weave a "slingshot of stones", which was simple to operate and could be thrown out in thirty or forty steps.

It's better against heavy armor than a bow and arrow.

The enemy sent heavy cavalry to try three or five times, but all of them ended in failure. In the end, they had to bring the siege wagons over.

This was the main force, and they carried ten siege engines, which were pulled by horse-drawn carts and followed behind the brigade.

Now that they have to transfer two siege engines to deal with a few horses, even they themselves feel very ridiculously annoyed.

Their siege vehicle was a wooden house with an acute angle and a triangle, thick planks, wrapped in iron sheets. Wooden wheels were installed on both sides, and a thick striking log hung under the "ridge", the front end of which was four or five feet long.

Soldiers can hide in siege engines and push them forward, ignoring the crossbow arrows they shoot from the towers, the stones they drop from the towers, and so on. Push the cart to the city gate, and you can pull the wood and hit the city gate.

They had already discovered the range of the Tang soldiers' rejection of the horse formation, and set up torches as a mark.

They pushed the two siege engines to the middle of the Horse Rejection Formation, spread them out from the middle to the sides, and pushed the siege vehicles to forcibly break Ma Shuo's wooden pole with brute force, and then destroy the Horse Rejection Formation.

The enemy hid in a thick wooden cart, and it was difficult for them to be hurt by bows, arrows, and stones.

Seven or eight paces wide of the Horse Rejection Formation had been destroyed—once the Horse Rejection Formation was forced and the enemy swarmed in, it was a dead end for his own men.

Both horizontally and vertically are dead.

"Oil Thunder - Prepare - "

Huo Yun ordered twenty dead soldiers to be divided into two groups, each holding a large oil thunderbolt with a fence - a fireball made of sticky fire oil soaked in linen, and fighting the enemy with a knife in one hand.

Tang Bing couldn't completely snatch the siege vehicle, and he couldn't push it in, so he could only let the two of them throw it outside. Therefore, not only must you kill the person who is controlling the wooden cart, but you also have to burn him.

There were only seven or eight people in the siege car, and the car was small and could not be used, and it was quickly annihilated by the Tang soldiers, who threw the oil thunderbolt into the car.

The siege engine was covered with iron sheets on the outside, and the inside was all bare logs.

It's just that these planks are too thick, and the texture of the wood is very tough, even if it is soaked in fire oil, it is difficult to burn it quickly.

The two sides fought for the siege engines.

The Dashi side continued to send heavy armor soldiers to attack and kill Tang soldiers and escort new drivers over.

The Tang soldiers also constantly sent people to fight the enemy, so that they could not successfully control the siege vehicles.

More and more oil mines were thrown into the wooden cart, and there was already a sea of fire inside.

The heavily armored soldiers pushed outside the car to crash the upside-down horses. There are people pushing carts, and naturally there are also heavy armor soldiers fighting with Tang soldiers to protect their companions.

These tin pot heavy armor soldiers, "rough skin and thick flesh", are infinitely powerful, and have quite strong defense and attack power, whether they are immediately or under the cloth.

But they're not completely invincible either.

Huo Yun has a lot of experience in dealing with this kind of "iron can" heavy armor soldiers.

If the opponent only has one or two "iron cans", there is room for them to display their fighting skills, and try to attack the "eye hole" on the opponent's helmet, although it is only a narrow slit, but as long as you can insert the knife into it, the opponent will definitely die.

If it is a group battle, and the opponent rushes over in a phalanx, the best way is to fall into the horse pit and reject the horse formation.

If the cavalry of both sides rushed each other, there was a "lasso".

One is a zipline, a length of iron chain with fist-sized melon hammers at both ends. Even if the melon hammer can't directly hit the opponent's head, as long as it is twisted around the opponent's neck and wound quickly, the melon hammer can eventually hit the opponent's head.

This kind of zipline has high requirements for projectile technology.

There is also a long pole lasso, a sturdy bamboo pole with an iron cable collar at one end. This kind of operation is simple, no matter how you step off the horse, as long as you have a little training, learn to use force, not be injured by the opponent's strong inertia, and can pull the enemy off the horse or pull him to the ground.

No matter how elaborate the design of this tin can, once it falls to the ground, it is not so easy to get up.

Now Tang Bing uses a long rod lasso, which is the best thing to use under the step. One person or two people in a group, put the iron rope around the opponent's neck, not only to control the opponent, but also to keep a distance from the opponent from being attacked.

As long as you trap the opponent and use the force, you can put him down in two or three strokes, and then have a companion to cooperate, step forward and hit the top with a melon hammer.

The other party came with 10,000 people, but they could only be led by the nose by the Tang soldiers, and launched a fierce battle in this narrow range, and in the case of sending two siege engines and two or three hundred heavy armored soldiers, they still did not have the absolute upper hand.

His own troops are being annihilated by the continuous attrition of the Tang soldiers in the stalemate.

Of course, the war was cruel to both sides, and the Tang soldiers also suffered a lot of damage, and the horse rejection array formed by Ma Shuobu was also under the constant impact of the enemy, and the gap became wider and wider, and finally it was more than a dozen steps wide.

Such a width is enough for a small heavy party formation to make a charge.

And that's exactly what the enemy thinks.

The heavy armored soldiers in front of the formation were constantly in a stalemate with the Tang soldiers, and the enemy in the rear was already organizing a cavalry phalanx.

The shield array of the Tang soldiers is okay against light cavalry and infantry, but against this kind of heavy cavalry, it can't even stop a charge.

"Attention, the enemy is about to charge, 100 men and horses - block the gap in the horse rejection formation-"

It's too late to insert Ma Shuo into the ground again.

This style of play is a life-for-life style of play, the soldier half-squats on the ground, holds the horse against the ground, and aims at the enemy with the head of Shuo obliquely upward, using the opponent's momentum to assassinate the enemy.

"The Tang Dynasty is forever, my soul is immortal, I will always protect the frontier, and the Han wind is swinging"

"The Tang Dynasty is forever, my soul is immortal, I will always protect the frontier, and the Han wind is swinging"

Hundreds of Tang soldiers held Ma Shuo and half-squatted on the ground, shouting, resounding through the dark night that seemed to never usher in the dawn.

The other party organized a phalanx of heavy cavalry and galloped with a bang.

The atmosphere of cold killing on the battlefield has reached the extreme-the battle at this moment can no longer be solved by wisdom and ingenuity.

At this moment, there is only the surging blood, the warm life, and the crazy collision between the cold knives and guns.

Not afraid? That's fake. In the shouting, people's blood was burning, and their hearts were beating more and more violently.

However, when the heavy party formation came to the front, it suddenly stopped.

A heavily armored knight with a helmet adorned with colorful feathers and gems urged his horse forward - judging by this outfit alone, he should have been a high-ranking officer, and he should not even be in this cavalry phalanx, but commanded in the rear.

"Hahahaha," the man laughed as much as he could, and then shouted in skilled Tang Chinese, "Huo family boy, it's really you-"
