"Gao Pet, lead the ghost-faced cavalry under your command to attack the city!"
Su Jun stared closely at the changes in the situation on the battlefield, and gave orders to the impatient Gao Pet on his side.
"The last general commands" Gao Chong hugged his fist at Su Jun, left the city with the guards left and right, and went down to prepare for the battle.
On the military fortress, the garrisons of Bei'an braved the rain of arrows and the stones falling from the sky from time to time, and threw the boulders at the head of the city one after another, anyway, there are people everywhere under the city, and there is no need to aim, just throw it, no matter who it is, it will definitely kill people anyway.
More than a dozen Bei'an defenders put down the simmers on the shelves at the head of the city at the same time, and the huge logs falling with the sound of the wind swept away the soldiers on the ladders below the city heads, and then shouted loudly to drag the logs up, and the sharp iron thorns on the woods still hung the corpses of a few unlucky barbarians from time to time.
Just when the defenders were dragging the wood, some of the trees were about to be pulled to the city, when suddenly some soldiers were shot by the arrows of the barbarians, and suddenly fell to the ground, and the woods that had lost their strength to pull fell again, and the barbarians below sounded a wail and scream.
A few people of the Bei'an garrison who were like wolves and tigers lifted a cauldron of boiling oil, quickly ran to the edge of the city, poured down, and the barbarian soldiers who were drenched in boiling oil let out a scream that was not like that of humans, and the hot oil mixed with feces passed through the armor on the body and poured onto the skin of the barbarians, and the scalded flesh and blood blurred skin instantly adhered to the leather armor on the body, and a slight touch would reveal the raw white bones inside.
As soon as the battle began, it instantly entered the white heat, both sides invested great manpower and material resources, and the warriors of the two sides launched an endless fight in the city and the city.
The gate of the military fortress suddenly opened, and the faces of the experienced tribal barbarians changed greatly, and they immediately thought of what was about to happen, and all spread their legs and retreated to both sides, some battle-hardened veterans knew that at this time, the Bei'an army suddenly opened the city gate, and it was bound to carry out a counterattack, and nine times out of ten it was the group of cavalry with grimaces.
Once the cavalry charged, they would never have turned around as soon as they rushed out of the city gate, and in the state of rapid charge, the war horses would inevitably continue to rampage forward, and if they could hide on both sides of the city gate in time, they would be able to save their lives.
And those inexperienced, the first time on the battlefield of the bloody young brute can be miserable, they see the city gate open the moment, what they think of is not to flee for their lives, but to attack the city, the first place, this group of eager to make meritorious service young soldiers in groups, excited screams, they wave the weapons in their hands to the direction of the city gate desperately squeeze in, of course, waiting for them The result is conceivable.
The ghost-faced cavalry roaring and rushing out of the city in a neat queue were like demons in hell, easily piercing the enemy troops who dared to stand in front of them.
As the last cavalry of the high-pet ghost-faced cavalry had just jumped out of the city gate, the gate of the military fortress immediately began to close with a bang, and it was tightly closed before the barbarian foot soldiers could rush up, and the barbarian soldiers who were blocked outside the gate were immediately subjected to another stone rain that cut their heads and faces.
As soon as Gao Zhong left the city gate, he immediately swung his army straight to the barbarian trebuchet a thousand steps away, according to Su Jun's plan, the first task of the Ghost Rider was to destroy all kinds of heavy weapons of the barbarians as much as possible, so as to reduce the pressure on the defenders on the city.
The ghost-faced cavalry launched a surprise attack in a cone-shaped shock formation, accompanied by the neighing of the war horses, the ghost-faced cavalry held their bayonet spears and soared all the way, leaving the barbarian infantry far behind, like a sharp spear, deeply penetrating into the opponent's large siege equipment team.
Seeing that the gate of the military fortress was wide open, he immediately sent the elite cavalry that had already been arranged, and under the leadership of Gude Sasaki, he faced the impact trajectory of the ghost-faced cavalry and inserted it horizontally, trying to intercept it.
At a distance of about two hundred paces from the trebuchet, the cavalry units of the two sides finally collided fiercely, Gude Sasaki's cavalry was all the elite of the White Barbarian Division, with excellent individual riding skills and extraordinary overall strength, but the highly favored ghost-faced cavalry was never a team that won with individual ability, which was related to the difficulties encountered by Su Jun when he formed the cavalry unit.
Taidang County lacks war horses, which leads to the scarcity of skilled horsemen, except for a small number of golden warriors brought from Yong'an, the rest of the riders are too difficult to find, not to mention a small Bei'an County, even if you look for the entire Taidang County, there are not many soldiers who are good at horse warfare.
Because of this, even if Su Jun was able to capture a war horse from the barbarians and barely arm a cavalry unit, the individual combat ability of it was still much inferior to the barbarians who were good at horse warfare.
The elite cavalry of the White Barbarian Department led by Gude Sasaki was no longer surprised by the grimace of the cavalry of Bei'an County, let alone fearful, as soon as he saw it, the barbarian used his superb riding skills to control the war horse steadily, and then raised his saber and slashed down at the enemy in front of him.
But what the white barbarian cavalry did not expect was that the ghost-faced cavalry did not fight hard-to-face, only to see the ghost-faced horseman in front of him stretch out his saber to block, and then the whole person flew in front of him, and the second ghost-faced cavalry behind him had poked out the spear in his hand in a daze, and immediately let go after poking, stabbing the barbarian cavalry under the horse.
Whenever the speed of one of the elite cavalry of the White Barbarian Division was delayed, then his greatest possibility would be to be killed or knocked away by the friendly forces behind him, rather than by the hands of the Ghost-faced Rider.
The white barbarian knights who pounced in a straggler formation could not rush into the ranks of the ghost-faced cavalry, and could only slash at the periphery of this long dragon, cutting down a small number of ghost-faced horsemen on the periphery and dismounting, but more ghost-faced horsemen still rumbled through the barbarian's formation and rushed straight to the slow-moving trebuchet.
"How is that possible? How can it be? This is the second time, and the ghost horsemen of the Bei'an Army have easily cut through the formation of the barbarian warriors. ”
Bai Ruinuo, who was watching the battle and plundering the battle in the back, was shocked in his heart, the last time it was the cavalry of the tribal alliance, it was understandable to be pierced, it is reasonable, but this time it was the elite cavalry of the Bai A Barbarian Department who penetrated it, what means did this Su Zhongqing use to train such an elite cavalry in the training city of the Bei'an Army, which had no cavalry not long ago?
