Chapter 240: Lessons

"If it drags on like this, I'm afraid that the first to be defeated may be the Great Array of the Forbidden Army. Dong Zunzhi had a hint of foreboding in his heart, Wu Yingying's strategy was completely clear, he put all the most elite five thousand spearmen into the forward attack, trying to achieve a breakthrough in the center, once he defeated the Tongyuan army and the Hujie army, which can be called the mainstay of the Song army, with his infantry formation equipped with so many spearmen, and with the help of five thousand elite cavalry, it would be easy to sweep away those Fanbang cavalry. The advantages and disadvantages of this strategy are obvious, the advantage is that it can maximize the disadvantage of the Han army but the elite troops, and the disadvantage is that the two flanks are weak.

Dong Zunzhi was scheming in his heart, and there were still a thousand spearmen in the rear of his infantry to cover him, even if the Han cavalry came to invade in a desperate way, it was not unguarded. He called the flag officer, pointed to the left wing of the Han army, and ordered: "Order Yao Jixun in the rear formation, immediately dispatch, flank the left flank of the enemy, and don't come back to see me if you don't cut off Wu Yingying's head." This Yao Jixun is his confidant and favorite general, and immediately after receiving the order, the four thousand most elite forbidden army iron cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty responded to the sound, like a tumbling thunder, and attacked towards the left flank of the Han army.

In front, a banner officer had already informed the Tubo leader of Dong Zunzhi's military order, asking him to get out of the way, and the iron cavalry of the forbidden army would personally attack the flank of the Han army. Zhe Ge Zhi was overjoyed in his heart, the cavalry of the Song army at this moment was not as useless as later generations, they had a steady supply of good horses in the northwest, armor and blades carefully built in the Central Plains, and a cavalry martial arts honed by the five generations of the Tang Dynasty. If it is a one-on-one frontal battle, it is an elite cavalry that is not lost to the pro-army of the Great Liao Pi Room.

Although it is not like the iron harrier to re-armor the whole body of the men and horses, the armor of the forbidden cavalry is much better than that of the ordinary Tubo cavalry, and when the four thousand cavalry pass by the Tubo cavalry who have avoided to the side, a staggered sound of armor is like a river of steel passing by, with a murderous aura. "This is the real elite of the forbidden army. The Tibetan cavalry was secretly envious in their hearts.

Lin Zhong, the captain of Xiaowu Military Academy, also pressed his gun in the cavalry of the forbidden army, and he looked at the envious and jealous eyes of the Tubo cavalry around him, and his heart couldn't help but be full of ridiculous feelings. Lin Zhong is no more rude than other rude soldiers, he has read some books, and probably knows some Huayi points, since the forbidden army entered Liangzhou, nearly hundreds of thousands of Han people have been enslaved like animals, but now he is actually with these troops as a friendly army, to attack a Han army. It is very unpleasant for Lin Zhongzhong, who has grown up in the forbidden army that has been fighting with the alien races who have been fighting for five generations.

"Lord, the last cavalry of the enemy army has moved, do you want to give the order for the two armies of Bai Yu and Chi Hunt to attack?" Chase said with some anxiety, the combat power of the cavalry of the forbidden army is not comparable to the rabble of those feudal towns, and the four thousand armored cavalry attacked with all their might, although it was not a heavy cavalry, but it was enough to decide the battle situation on the left flank.

Wu Yingying stared at the torrent of iron cavalry that was surging rapidly, his surroundings were filled with all kinds of sounds of the two armies fighting, the golden drums were thundering, shouting and killing, the sound of the sound was flying, and the swords were clanging, for a moment, all this seemed to be calm, and in the last few battles, he had this feeling more and more frequently, that is, the more in this chaotic and complex battlefield, the more he fell into an extremely calm mood, as if he ignored everything around him, and seemed to see everything on the entire battlefield in his eyes. As far as the eye can see, there are warriors under their command fighting desperately for victory.

"The enemy's formation is complete, and when they are completely involved in the battlefield and cannot get out, it is the time for our army to win a big victory. Wu Yingying looked at Chase and ordered: "The enemy army is menacing, you bring the tooth barracks, the Condor battalion, and the remaining Chinese saber and shield men to support the left flank." "Lord, you can't live without a guard!" said Chase. "If you hold the left flank, I will be as stable as Mount Tai, and if the left flank is lost, what is the use of my few guards here? Go quickly, don't delay!" Wu Yingying said in a deep voice, with an irresistible majesty in his voice.

Chase couldn't, so he could only follow the order to lead all the 1,500 sergeants in the Tooth Camp to strengthen to the left flank. Before the Song cavalry arrived, Chase quickly organized the defensive line again. The sergeants of the tooth camp are all selected from the elite of various armies, and they also practice spears on weekdays, so Chase took the tooth camp as the backbone, and the five hundred spearmen arranged a line of defense behind the original Mo knife men and crossbowmen, so that the later Mo knife men retreated to the middle of the spearmen, specifically cutting down those enemy troops who tried to break through the spear array, and the sword and shield men and crossbowmen only relied on the spearmen behind them, dealing with thousands of iron cavalry charging formations, and before the speed of the cavalry slowed down, the sword and shield men and the crossbowmen who drew their swords were bound to suffer heavy casualties in front.

The Tubo cavalry who made room for the left flank of the forbidden iron cavalry was not idle, and the six thousand cavalry that were still intact led by Ge Zhi went straight to the hussars of the Xingu Department who were guarding the rear formation, and the Tubo cavalry had been taught a hard lesson by the hussars these days, if it were not for the imminent victory, as long as the main force of Wu Yingying's infantry army was extinguished, these hussars were powerless to return to the sky, and the Tubo cavalry was easily unwilling to challenge these elite Han hussars.

"His grandmother's," Xin Gu scolded, if it wasn't for the cover of the rear formation, he would have led the hussars up a long time ago, and he didn't come to these Tubo barbarians to dare to come to pick the tiger's whiskers, he left two thousand soldiers and horses to cover the rear of the infantry army, to prevent the right-wing party cavalry from taking advantage of it, and divided his troops to attack the rear formation, and he led three thousand hussars to hedge against the Tibetan cavalry. Both sides were urging the horses at full speed, from the flanks to the rear in an instant, the horses' hooves rumbled, the two cavalry crashed head-on, the hussars and the Tubo cavalry twice their size collided together, and in just a few breaths, countless fierce cavalry fell off their horses and were trampled into meat by the heavy iron cavalry.

Zhe Ge Zhi made up his mind to entangle this hussar army, not allowing them to send troops to disrupt the attack of the forbidden army on the left flank, and urged the warriors and hussars under his command to fight, and the Tubo cavalry, which occupied the numerical advantage, also burst out with rare courage at this moment, and desperately stopped the hussars from fighting, and nearly 10,000 cavalry spun their horses and waved their blades, and you went back and forth to make a mess.

In the direction of the left flank, the four thousand iron cavalry with a dull roar is getting closer and closer, "Calm down!" Chase shouted loudly, in fact, he was also a little worried in his heart, although the Han army had the determination to fight to the end, but the left flank barely pulled up the defense line of 3,000 foot soldiers, in front of this imposing iron cavalry, it seemed a little shaky.
