Chapter 273: Horse Stepping Joint Venture
Early morning.
Tang Xiu personally led 20,000 Xiliang iron horsemen, got out of the tiger prison, and went straight to the princes' coalition army Dazhai.
The princes' coalition army specially arranged 20,000 soldiers and horses outside Dazhai, obviously afraid that the cavalry in the Tiger Prison Pass would go out of the pass and launch a surprise attack.
Tang Xiu nodded secretly, there are not no capable people in the alliance of princes, it seems that Cao Cao is an excellent military strategist, and most of the 20,000 soldiers and horses specially arranged are from Cao Cao's hands.
But the 20,000 soldiers and horses outside the big village obviously can't resist his footsteps!
Tang Xiu only sent Liu Ge a game message, asking him to pay attention to gathering the army, so as not to cause chaos in the subsequent chaos of the princes' alliance and make the army of the Taishou of Shanggu County in Youzhou also suffer heavy losses.
After all, this Shanggu County Taishou Liu Ge is already Tang Xiu's subordinate, so naturally the greater the power and the stronger the strength, the more helpful it is to him.
"Kill One"
Tang Xiu snorted coldly, and the 20,000 Xiliang iron riders behind him shouted: "Kill one by one"
The sound of killing shook the sky!
Swept the princes!
Led by Tang Xiu, 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry launched a charge.
The majesty of the 20,000 cavalry charging is far from being able to understand its horror unless you are there at the scene and experience it firsthand.
On the horizon, only a black cloud could be seen, and the earth began to tremble violently.
Although Cao Cao had outstanding ability, even if the princes were defeated, he also arranged 20,000 soldiers and horses outside Dazhai in advance to prevent the cavalry from going out of the pass and launching a surprise attack.
But he still underestimated Tang Xiu!
"It's Xiliang Army!"
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
"Drum and summons!"
The 20,000 soldiers and horses outside Dazhai found the attacking Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the earth was trembling, and fear was spreading.
Cao Cao's younger brother Cao Ren, who is the commander of these 20,000 soldiers and horses, is also shocked at the moment, but he is also a general, although he is not confused.
Cao Ren immediately organized an army for an effective defense.
But neither the formation he organized temporarily nor the archers he sent out stopped the footsteps of the 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
Tang Xiu personally led 20,000 iron horsemen, and after coming to a close place, he also launched an arrow attack.
Xiliang Iron Cavalry is the elite in the world, and everyone is good at riding and shooting.
After a rain of swords on both sides, each with casualties, Tang Xiu had already led 20,000 iron cavalry to kill the 20,000 defenders outside the princes' village.
The 20,000 army led by Cao Ren was defeated when he landed, where could he stop the footsteps of the 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, not to mention that Tang Xiu, a peerless god, would take the lead in charging into battle!
The 20,000 troops outside this big village were defeated in an instant.
If killed, the 20,000 army only suffered a few thousand casualties, but in ancient warfare, this is already a remarkable "proportional" number.
The panic caused by the deaths and injuries of these thousands of people, and the might of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, caused the remaining army of more than 10,000 to be immediately defeated!
This is also the reason why when Dong Zhuo's army fought with the princes' coalition army before, Lu Bu was able to defeat Wang Kuang's 20,000 army in a short time with 3,000 elite cavalry.
Once the battlefield is lost, the atmosphere is panicked, and the soldiers scatter and flee in rout.
And after the war, Wang Kuang gradually gathered the defeated army, and he was still a prince all the way.
On ancient battlefields, an army often lost more than two or three percent of its numbers, which would directly cause a rout. Of course, this is also inextricably linked to the elite level of the army, as well as morale, momentum, and so on.
If an army is more than fifty percent damaged, it is still not defeated, and it is still able to fight, it is already the top army, the elite of the elite.
Such armies have not been many throughout the ages, and their numbers are often limited.
It seems that the Wei Wushu in the Warring States Period was the elite trained by the famous Wei general Wu Qi, as well as the Qin Ruishi of the Great Qin, the Han Huben during the Han Wudi period, the Xuanjia Cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, the Beifu Army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Beiwei Army of the Song Dynasty, and so on.
In all dynasties and generations, there is often only one such elite army, and almost all of them come into being.
Outside the princes' Dazhai, the 20,000 soldiers and horses commanded by Cao Ren were naturally far from being able to compare with these legendary elites, and they were defeated after only losing a few thousand soldiers and horses.
And Tang Xiu did not chase and kill the defeated army, but led 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry and stepped into the princes' village in one fell swoop!
Horse Pedal Joint Venture!
In the two hundred miles of princes' villages, there have been monstrous waves!
Tang Xiu led 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry, and everywhere he passed, the Dazhai of the princes along every road was swept away, and the soldiers and horses were defeated.
The order of attack chosen by Tang Xiu is also very distinctive.
The first Dazhai to step into was Wang Kuang, the Taishou of Hanoi County, who had been defeated by Lu Bu and collected the defeated army.
Facing the Xiliang Iron Cavalry again, Wang Kuangxin's defeated army, with almost no decent resistance, was defeated here.
And these defeated soldiers and horses will also have an impact on the adjacent camps and become Tang Xiu's help!
The second Dazhai that Tang Xiu stepped into was the Dazhai of Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, which was adjacent to Wang Kuang's Dazhai, and the soldiers and horses under Liu Dai also had no decent resistance and were quickly defeated.
Next, Tang Xiu went straight to Changsha to kill Sun Jian's camp.
At this time, although the princes were in chaos, the quality of each army was also clearly revealed.
It seems that under the command of Sun Jian, the army composed of the sons of Jiangdong is already the elite of the princes of the Twenty Routes. It is also like the Youzhou soldiers under the command of Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gonggong of Beiping, and they are also the elite of the princes of the Twenty Roads.
Although the previous battle of Tiger Prison Pass, Sun Jian and Gongsun Zan were in charge of the palace, and there were many casualties among the soldiers and horses.
But the two of them still organized the army very effectively at the first moment of the joint camp, and even prepared to encircle and suppress the 20,000 iron cavalry led by Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu naturally couldn't watch Sun Jian and Gongsun Zan act.
He is killing Sun Jian Dazhai at the moment!
Although the combat strength of the soldiers and horses under Sun Jian's command is not bad, it is still not enough to see the 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry led by Tang Xiu.
Among them, Tang Xiu's unparalleled courage also played a great role.
The two generals under Sun Jian's command were all cut off by Tang Xiu, and the generals and soldiers under him were all frightened, even Sun Jian himself, who also retreated far away, avoiding his edge, and was terrified.
Under such circumstances, how could the soldiers and horses under Sun Jian's command stop the 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry led by Tang Xiu.
The role of the warlord was played to the extreme for a while.
After Sun Jian's soldiers and horses were defeated, Tang Xiu killed the neighboring Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang's Dazhai.
Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang himself is already a general with good force, but compared with Sun Jian, he is still a little worse, and it is even more difficult to resist Tang Xiu's edge.
It was the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang, who also chose to avoid it at this time.
Soon, the army of Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang was also defeated.
Tang Xiu continued to rush and kill.
For a time, the two hundred miles of princes' village set off monstrous waves, and there were sounds of fighting and panicked shouts of routs everywhere.
Tang Xiu led 20,000 Xiliang iron horsemen, horses and joint ventures, and won a battle!
