Chapter Eighty-Four: A Meaningful Retreat (I)
The sunlight reflected this scene, with a slight hint of luster, so it was shocking.
Iron Mountain is not a cavalryman, but now he has a horse, and his spear is not a cavalry spear, but he is still invincible.
No one knew how he did it, and the horse, under his might and control, though not obedient, gradually ceased to show any more irritable posture.
The sound of horses' hooves, seven or eight horsemen staggered past him, the spears trembled, the people turned on their horses, and the two horses fell to the ground.
Then, the remaining five or six horsemen crashed into the slowly advancing Guan Kuo.
The first saber was chopped down.
His shield in his left hand was raised above his head, and his right gun was like a dragon, piercing the leg of his horse's horse.
With a miserable neigh, the horse lost its front hooves and its head fell.
The abrupt cavalry above slammed into Guan Kuo's shield with their sabers head-on.
Guan Kuo took two steps back as a relieve, and then his spear and saber staggered.
The abrupt cavalry behind the two sides had already caught it from both sides, the edge was too strong, and the abrupt man who was fighting with Guan Kuo was knocked down, and the spear head that Guan Kuo was stabbing forward pierced the opponent's abdomen like this.
The breath in his body was running, and he tried in vain to withstand the impact of these two horses, but the previous series of actions had a great impact on him, and now he was not enough to resist such a huge impact with his personal strength, and his knees made a slight "creaking" sound, and he even picked two shots, and he didn't know if he was hit, so he was knocked to the ground by the two horses with a shield.
It was the first time he had been knocked to the ground in this fight, but he felt like a failure.
"I don't believe that the god of war hasn't been put down." He comforted himself in this way, while his body continued to roll with the power of the breath in his body, avoiding the deadly swords and hooves.
With a slightly familiar roar, the sound of the spear piercing flesh irritated Guan Kuo's eardrums, and he shook the mud and sand off his head, found a gap, and rolled over from the ground.
A blood flower bloomed on the back of an abrupt cavalryman, and the bright red splattered directly on Guan Kuo's face, but his eyes did not blink.
On the battlefield, any small mistake can be fatal.
He saw a bloody man dragging a spear in tow.
To be exact, a man covered in blood.
Useless couldn't see the human form anymore, the spear in his hand was running in all directions, staring at Guan Kuo for a moment, and then he didn't know where to kill.
The crisis was briefly lifted, and Guan Kuo took a few deep breaths to adjust the somewhat disordered breath just now.
"Is this a favor from before?" He couldn't help but think.
The rumbling sound gradually sounded from the wings, and the earth shook more violently, and the mud and sand could no longer fall, and it was shrouded in the crowd of people who were rushing and killed, like a dark cloud covering the low sky.
Waiting silently, it can also be said that the Northern Tang Heavy Armored Iron Cavalry, which endured to a certain extent, finally launched a stormy offensive.
This is the characteristic of this great killing weapon, if it does not move, it will be enough, and if it moves, it will sweep in all directions.
There are not many heavy armored iron horsemen accompanying him, only more than 2,000, but every time he uses it, he can basically decide the victory or defeat for a while, which is the confidence of the Northern Tang Dynasty.
When the abrupt people felt the shaking of the earth, their faces showed solemn expressions, and even some young people became a little flustered.
The abrupt veterans were relatively much more emotionally stable, and on the small-scale battlefields on the border over the years, they had collided with this kind of Northern Tang Dynasty killing weapon more than once, although they did admit that this was a particularly terrifying existence, but after experiencing too much, it was not easy for them to be frightened.
Compared with the light cavalry roaring by the abrupt people, the heavy armored iron cavalry of the Northern Tang Dynasty was slower, but the momentum was greater.
The Northern Tang people had studied countless times how to avoid or alleviate the sharp edge of the Tuv, and the Tuvul also did not want to go toe-to-toe with those ironclad cavalry.
They took advantage of their speed to throw off the Northern Tang infantry, and at the same time wanted to temporarily retreat before the heavily armored iron cavalry came from the two wings, and wait until the edge of those terrifying cavalry was gone, and then fight.
Obviously, the Northern Tang people would not just let them go about their plans freely, and while the iron cavalry on both wings was encircling, under the military order, the infantry tried their best to contain those light cavalry who wanted to break through, which caused a great obstacle to the other side.
A large number of abrupt light horsemen rushed out like lightning, but there were still many abrupt people, and they could only wait for the hunt of the ironclad heavy horsemen.
War is the absolute fairness of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
More than 2,000 iron-armored heavy horsemen turned into a continuous iron wall, and in this way, they crossed diagonally from both sides in a cavalry formation, and a line pushed forward all the way, on the one hand, to pursue those who were already sleepy and tired of fighting for a while, and on the other hand, to block the troops who arrived behind the abrupt army.
Guan Kuo had looked at the uselessness of the blood man with strange eyes before, but now he himself was no better.
There were multiple horrific wounds on his body, first a hot sting, then numbness, but he could no longer easily control the pranayama in his body, but became slightly disordered and uncomfortable.
And the smell of blood was so strong that it always felt a little difficult for him to breathe.
Fortunately, the edge of the abrupt people who had been consumed was obviously reduced very quickly, and after seeing that the way back was blocked by the Northern Tang Heavy Cavalry, he was even more demoralized, and there was no threat to his life.
With the convergence of the infantry and the Northern Tang heavy cavalry, the thousands of Tuwu people who were surrounded were quickly exhausted and the entire army was annihilated.
Although they have long been very aware of the power of the Northern Tang Dynasty heavy cavalry, those sudden cavalry who fought their way out of the encirclement, in addition to a sense of the aftermath of the catastrophe, are still a little chilling.
The cavalry that charged at the rear of the assault and the cavalry who broke through and returned staggered, facing the heavy cavalry of the Northern Tang Dynasty with more than 800 lines lined up, revealing a fierce look.
Everyone knows that this means that the war is already in its late stages, and the next time will determine success or failure.
At this moment, a scene occurred that made everyone puzzled and vigilant-
In the rear of the abrupt troops, more than a dozen arrows suddenly shot into the air, soaring into the sky, and the sharp whistling sound actually overshadowed a large number of rushing and killing sounds.
The people of the Northern Tang Dynasty didn't know what was going on, and they saw that just now they were still fierce and vicious, and they put on a fierce posture of more than a thousand light horses, and suddenly braked quickly, and then the archers and cavalry covered, and the arrows like dark clouds suppressed the advance of the Northern Tang heavy horses, and carried out a very fierce cover for the retreat of those light horses, and then ......
They actually retreated!
