Chapter 241: Reinforcements (2) (Collect, Recommend, Subscribe)

In this expedition to fight the barbarians, Su Jun not only brought an integrated army, but also two thousand ghost-faced horsemen to help, and even brought hundreds of chariots that had just been successfully developed by his own side and had never been put into actual combat.

As the saying goes, practice is the only criterion for testing the truth, and although the chariot is cleverly conceived, it is still necessary to see from actual combat whether it can exert its due results.

Hundreds of heroic chariots were quickly pushed to the front, their bed crossbows and catapults exuding a murderous aura, and the spearmen in the first row stood proudly in bright armor and spears made of fine iron.

Behind the first row of spearmen are sword and shield soldiers, they hold a square cowhide shield in their left hand, and a modified long-handled war knife in their right hand, and the third row is a row of gunners, standing in turn, neatly arranged, whether you look horizontally, vertically or obliquely, the garrison troops in Bei'an County are neatly arranged in a straight line.

In addition to the 1,000 charioteers, the remaining soldiers were neatly arranged into three large phalanxes, each large phalanx had a total of 3,000 soldiers, and each large phalanx consisted of three small phalanxes of 1,000 soldiers.

Su Jun stood at the end of the three large phalanxes surrounded by Gao Meng and his slaves and a team of pro-guards, and the military flag of Anning was impressively written with a big "Su" character, fluttering in the wind, the tall and sturdy drummers were excitedly holding the drums, just waiting for the commander to give an order, and they were going to beat the war drums of the attack.

Although there were not a few troops who came to the aid of Ando, but Gude Sasaki did not take them seriously, the combat effectiveness of the Bei'an County garrison was surprisingly poor, almost no different from the peasants with weapons, not to mention that in last year's battle, the previous county guards of Bei'an County were all killed, and an army that could not even guarantee the safety of the county head's life could have anything to be awe-inspiring.

The elite cavalry of the White Barbarian Division, under the order of Gude Sasaki, rushed forward and killed the Bei'an army not far away.

Two thousand steps, one thousand hundred steps, eight hundred steps, looking at the fierce oncoming barbarian cavalry, Yu Dayou's heart did not have the slightest panic, but silently counted the distance between the other party and himself in his heart, until he was only five hundred steps away from himself, Yu Dayou waved the order flag in his hand and shouted:

"Combat convoy, ready, launch!"

The catapults on the three hundred chariots made a loud noise at the same time, and three hundred polished huge stone projectiles flew up with the sound of the howling wind, and smashed into the barbarian cavalry group led by Gude Sasaki.

Gudesasaki looked disdainful, he didn't look at the huge military formation of Bei'an County at all, although he had also encountered this kind of Bei'an army's army formation with a mixed formation of spearmen and sword and shield soldiers to meet the cavalry countless times, but at that time, the ordinary cavalry of the Yagu tribe could easily defeat it.

What's more, he is leading the most elite Yuwei of the White Barbarian Department at this time, whether it is the sophistication of equipment or the psychology of daring to fight, it is far more than several times more than the warriors of the Yagu tribe, not to mention the vulnerable Bei'an Army, even if it is the most elite warrior of the Dawu Empire, Gude Sasaki has enough faith to defeat them!

Thinking of this, Gude Sasaki did not hesitate to lead the army to rush over, even if he found that there were more than 10,000 soldiers behind the cavalry of the Bei'an Army, he did not retreat in the slightest, but immediately issued an order, changed the formation into an awl, and prepared to attack at any time.

The neat and orderly change of battle formation on the galloping war horses made Su Jun, who was watching the battle behind the Bei'an Army, feel full of praise, he thought that the Ghost Faced Rider under his command was already a first-class cavalry, but there was still a gap compared to the cavalry of the other party.

Changing formations while running doesn't seem like much, but it's extremely difficult to really do it, and I'm afraid that only the first group of golden guards to follow Gao Pet can do it, and others may not be able to really master this skill even if they practice for a long time.

However, this group of Bai Aman's cavalry easily did this, it seems that Bei'an County has been repeatedly defeated with barbarians before, and it is not wronged, not to look at anything else, but the group of cavalry of the Bai Aman Department in front of them has completed the transformation of the formation after just a little confusion.

"Amazing, amazing! Although the intelligence has already stated that the strength of this group of barbarians is strong, he still underestimates them a little," Su Jun secretly admired in his heart.

The stone cannonballs sent out by the catapult were thrown high into the sky, and then smashed heavily into the charging barbarian camp, and the center of the cone-shaped attack formation immediately stirred up a wave, each of these stone bullets weighed about a few catties, falling from the sky, these stone bullets were only afraid of dozens of catties of strength.

The cavalry that is charging in the White Barbarian Department is not afraid of ordinary bows and arrows, ordinary bows and arrows are difficult to shoot through the light armor on their bodies, and they basically cannot cause substantial damage to them, but this kind of stone bullet is different, if you hit it, you will be directly knocked off the horse, in the running cavalry team, once you fall off the horse, there is only one result waiting for, that is, you will be trampled into flesh in an instant.

After the first wave of stone bullets, dozens of horsemen fell from their horses, and then the barbarians who fell off their horses completely disappeared from this world without a trace in an instant.

"Combat convoy, stone projectiles and bed crossbows are fired together!"

Yu Dayou shouted again, and another wave of huge stone bullets rose into the sky and smashed out, accompanied by stone bullets to hit the barbarian soldiers, there were also dense large crossbow arrows, at this time, the cavalry of the Bai A barbarian department was less than two hundred steps away from his side, and the fast-running cavalry did not have time to dodge the arrows and was shot down a large piece.

"Pikemen, guns!"

There was a loud sound, and rows of spears were set up in an orderly manner.

"Combat convoy, stone projectiles and bed crossbows are fired together!"

As Yu Dayou finally shouted this word, the command flag in his hand fell again, and after the stone ballworm on the chariot fired the last round of stone bullets, he neatly turned over and got out of the car, and quickly retreated to the rear, and the bed crossbow chariot in the front row effectively hindered the rapid charge of the cavalry.

Gude Sasaki was extremely angry, this kind of chariot that can fire stone bullets and crossbow arrows, he encountered it for the first time, and he didn't know how powerful they were, because of the lack of effective countermeasures, three waves of artillery bombardment, two waves of crossbow arrows, enough for Goodsea Archie to lose nearly three hundred of the elite of the White Barbarian Division, and this group of brave Northern Barbarian warriors was sacrificed in vain, and they did not touch the enemy until they died.

Close, close, finally approaching, the first row of war horses neighed, suddenly turned automatically, the front row as a horse rejection chariot on the bright spear tip made these quite psychic horses automatically want to turn back, the barbarian soldiers sitting on the war horses did not dare to continue to charge, can only stop, flexible bow and arrow, will be a sharp arrow to the Bei'an army behind the chariot.
