Chapter 272 (8)

In addition to the more than 100,000 people who went to the battlefield to fight Jiang Qin, the Shanyue army and the private soldiers of the big clan added up to about 400,000. No matter how much Wang Ying drove away, he could only drive about 100,000 people to attack the Shanyue army, and with their combat effectiveness, they would not have much impact on the Shanyue army.

The impact of the chaotic army, at least a small part of the Shanyue people that can be killed, the important thing is the blow to the morale of the army and the impact on the formation of the army.

No matter how much Shan Yue was thirsty for killing, the knife in his hand was still a little unstable when he slashed at his own people, and the desperate impact of the rout quickly caused chaos in the formation. When Wang Ying, who took the opportunity to enter, led people to attack, the chaos rushed there, causing even greater chaos.

The direction of Qiu Ying's attack is about 100,000 private soldiers of the Zhang'an clan, these people's combat effectiveness and obedience are far inferior to Shanyue, and under the leadership of the generals of each family, they are not subordinate to each other, and they are affected by the chaos of Shanyue, and the performance of these people is even more unbearable. Especially after Qiu Ying launched an attack, even the basic resistance had already been formed, and Qiu Ying rushed forward wildly, instantly disrupting the formation.

"Beat the drums and order the cavalry to attack." Tai Shi Ci looked in all directions, saw that the two sides began to attack the Shanyue army, and ordered.

The drum beat of "dong dong dong" sounded and spread for miles. Zhou Tai, who went around the back of Shanyue, lurked in a valley not far away with 5,000 cavalry, heard the sound of drums, and immediately got up and mounted his horse.

"Brothers, when it's time for our cavalry to wield its might, charge with me and kill Shanyue!" Zhou Tai shouted.

In a moment's time, the earth-shattering sound came from behind Shanyue, and the leader of Shanyue who heard the movement was taken aback.

"What sound? Could it be cavalry? Didn't you say that the thousands of cavalry in Huiji were all in Shanyin, where did the cavalry come from here? The leader of the mountain roared angrily.

No one answered his question, and soon after hearing the vibration, Zhou Tai charged with 5,000 cavalry, and directly smashed into Shanyue's archers, rampage. The thousands of infantry who remained behind to guard the archers were not prepared at all, and most of them disappeared in a single charge.

The time was too short, and the big leader of Shanyue didn't have time to give an order, Zhou Tai arrived, and the commander of Shanyue's archers didn't have time to react, so he was directly beheaded by Zhou Tai who rushed in front of him.

Tens of thousands of archers were scattered in a short period of time and could no longer be gathered. Without checks and balances, the archers commanded by Tai Shici were even more unscrupulous, directly attacking the troops around the Shanyue leader who were still in good formation.

"Charge!" Scattered the archers in the rear of the Shanyue people, Zhou Tai retreated with the cavalry not far away to organize the formation, and then ...... Killed the private soldiers of the major families who were still resisting.

"Run!" The scale of the cavalry charge was terrifying, and those private soldiers could not stand the pressure, and those who were still barely resisting quickly gave up, turned and ran to the rear.

From the moment the first person to flee appeared, he could no longer stop the private soldiers from rushing. Originally, Qiu Ying couldn't find the north, and it was not easy to barely support it for a while under the strict orders of the commanders of the various generals, and they would no longer care about it, and they would all disperse directly, and no matter how much the commanders couldn't stop it.

These private armies are next to the Shanyue army, which can be regarded as the flank of the Shanyue army, and this set of actions will expose this side of Shanyue. In particular, like the rout of the player lord's army before, under the pursuit of cavalry and Qiu Ying, he rushed directly to the Shanyue army.

In their subconscious, only these powerful "companions" can keep them safe.

As a result, both sides of Shanyue were in chaos, and Qiu Ying took the opportunity to kill it, wanting to join Wang Ying. And Zhou Tai continued to retreat to the side and wait for the opportunity. It's not that he doesn't want to continue the charge, but the preparations around the big leader of the mountain are already ready to deal with it, and he can't pave the way forward with the corpses of the cavalry. You know, these cavalry are on the battlefield for the first time.

Tai Shi Ci was very satisfied with the current scene, especially the performance of the cavalry led by Zhou Tai.

In the remote south, there is a shortage of war horses, and the thousands of war horses that Liu Feng got on the battlefield in Jizhou, as well as the war horses obtained in Yizhou, add up to less than 6,000. With 5,000 cavalry, there are not many spare and breeding horses, and the loss of one is distressing. But for the sake of victory in the war, Liu Feng did not hesitate to hand over these cavalry to Tai Shici for use.

The south is not suitable for raising horses, and there are not many cavalry. In order to train this team, Bai Jian has been selecting soldiers for a long time, and most of the selected ones were brought back from the north that year. During this period, Bai Jian went to Luoyang twice, and the training was intermittent, but in a few years, the cavalry was formed, but he did not go to the battlefield. Moreover, these cavalrymen were in the barracks, but Liu Feng kept them very secret from the outside world and did not leak them out.

Before the start of the war, Zhou Tai secretly set off with these cavalry, and according to Tai Shici's orders, quietly hid not far from the battlefield, listening to the sound of drums to kill from behind the enemy.

Originally, Tai Shici wanted to personally lead the cavalry, but he was the commander and had to command in the middle, so he chose Zhou Tailai, who had the highest force, to lead the cavalry.

Having said all this, it was only a moment on the battlefield. Seeing that both wings of Shanyue began to be chaotic, Tai Shici immediately seized the opportunity and attacked with the whole army.

He still had 300,000 men in his hands and sent 100,000 to cooperate with Jiang Qin to besiege the enemy in front, and the archers continued to suppress the enemy's counterattack, and he himself charged head-on with the last 100,000 men. Of these last 100,000 people, 20,000 are elite troops who have been on the battlefield for a long time.

The ability of the big leader of Shanyue is not weak, but there is a group of pig teammates, and now there are 100,000 people in his hands who can maintain a normal formation, Tai Shici personally led people to charge, plus 20,000 elites as the base, and soon rushed away from Shanyue's formation, causing chaos in the entire army of Shanyue, and the big leader of Shanyue could no longer command the troops, so he could only order a retreat.

But even if it is withdrawn, it is not so simple, Zhou Tai's cavalry is still waiting for an opportunity outside, and when they saw the Shanyue people who retreated in panic, they immediately rushed up and scattered them.

Jiang Qin was not weak, and with the support of 100,000 fresh troops, he quickly defeated Shanyue, who was fighting against him, and then supported Tai Shici, who was killing the enemy.

Half an hour later, Shanyue fully surrendered, and even the big leader of Shanyue did not escape the catastrophe and was caught up and captured by Zhou Tai.

In this battle, only a few people can escape, and there are not too many deaths, and the captives are the big ones. However, many people have to change careers after recovering from their injuries.

"Quickly clean up the battlefield, rest for half a day, and then escort the captives back to Yongning as quickly as possible!" The battle was over in full swing, Tai Shi Ci ordered.

This place is closer to Zhang'an than Yongning, but Tai Shici doesn't trust those people in Zhang'an, and would rather walk more and spend more time to send the captives back to Yongning.
