Chapter 165: Corpse Mountain
PS: Ask for recommendations, ask for collections! Thanks to 'lucfh' for the tip!
After Kang Sheli ordered the action, preparing to take advantage of the 'Grim Reaper' heavy cavalry to reap the life, and the Yanmen closed the city to distract the defending sergeants, he began to press the large army up, in order to be able to pass through the local long-range defensive blockade area smoothly.
But I didn't expect that the so-called flaws could also be the enemy's trap! Maybe it was the past achievements of the heavy cavalry that blinded his sense of smell as a battlefield commander, or maybe it was the successive failures to get benefits and victories in the hands of the war guards that made him anxious, in short, the slightest urgency on the battlefield forced almost all of his tens of thousands of sons to be buried!
The heavy knights who crossed the raging sea of fire in front saw not the sergeants waiting for battle, nor the scattered deserters, but a figure standing in the distance, thousands of soldiers with high shields neatly lined up behind them.
Although the Turkic heavy cavalry was surprised by such a distance, they did not think much about it, after all, it is wonderful for the cavalry to have enough distance acceleration, and these sergeants did not take advantage of their weakness in stepping through the sea of fire for a short time to fight, but set up a formation in the distance and then fight, it is really stupid.
These were just a flash of thought of the heavy cavalry at that time, the reality was that the Turkic heavy cavalry that had crossed the sea of fire did not stop speeding towards the enemy's battle guards, and many of them had already taken the short spears in their hands, and only waited for a hundred steps to use horsepower to throw a broken shield to kill the enemy.
In the blink of an eye, a change occurred! A horse that was running forward suddenly fell to the ground and threw his master out of the way, and although the heavy riders were skillful, it was inevitable that the horses would sometimes get sick or injured.
But when more and more people fell, even one of the healthiest horses fell softly, and after leaving their masters, the heavy riders found that something was wrong, and some of them fell behind and ran ahead to look at the place, and after the dust from the horses fell, countless potholes of all sizes were exposed, which was one of the ways of the frost and cold moon against the cavalry, the horse turning pit!
Horses of this era did not yet have a horseshoe, and it was only a matter of time before one or several feet broke their legs once they encountered such a small but deep enough pit at high speeds.
But at this time, the momentum has been completed, and it is difficult for the heavy cavalry to stop even if they know these problems, because once they slow down, the probability of falling into a hole will only increase, not decrease, so they can only continue to move forward, regardless of those comrades who were thrown out because of the heavy armor, it was either difficult to get up or their muscles and bones were broken, because they knew that in this case, only killing the opponent first was the best help for their comrades.
Just after they quickly passed through the horse abduction pit and lost no more than a hundred horses, there was also a trace of disappointment in the eyes of Frost Hanyue, if these heavy horses showed even a trace of hesitation, the results of the horse abduction pit would not be only so, it can only be said that these heavy horses are really elite, but it just so happens that the study of how to restrain the cavalry is my longest practice, and there are too many possibilities in the Mo family collection, and the horror of this heavy horse is about to fall into my hands before it is spread!
Then, at a distance of two hundred paces from the battle guard, another hand of Frost and Cold Moon finally reappeared!
Just as the heavy cavalry was about to cross this road, the road below them was suddenly opened, and hundreds of sergeants were holding something like a long mace, and a sharp two-knife blade in front of them swung at the horses that were about to cross!
Immediately, the horses with no armor on their legs fell to the ground in a cry, and then the sergeant with the spear next to him took the opportunity to catch a bucket, and then a heavily armored knight who fell to the ground died before he could get up, and as the head of the spear was withdrawn, blood gushed out of his mouth, and the blood mixed with the wounds of his body and the blood of his beloved horse merged into a stream and flowed on the ground.
It's just a round of action, and this kind of ambush killed the head into the hundred cavalry Turkic heavy cavalry sergeants, not counting the heavy cavalry in several tunnels after they fell into the ambush because of such a surprise attack, it can be said that the results are remarkable.
But these Turkic heavy cavalry is worthy of martial arts and fierce horsemanship has entered the realm, but in a short time to stop the chaos, and then took out a short spear and began to counterattack, but the war guard sergeant who had been prepared for this for a long time, directly and neatly blocked the stainless steel shield, and the exposed pit was perfectly sealed by the shield that was bridged, and the short spear could only helplessly make a loud noise after the acceleration of the horsepower and then rebounded back.
At this time, the momentum of the cavalry finally dropped to the minimum, and the horses no longer had a chance to accelerate, the frost cold moon standing alone waved his hand, and the sword 'Emperor' was in his hand, and the shield sergeant behind him launched a neat charge at the most comfortable distance of the body's explosive power.
Even in the case of such acceleration, none of the sergeants of the battle guards were faster or slower, which shows the rigor of the army!
Just when this group of heavily armored knights was in a dilemma because of the response of the tunnel sergeants, the battle guard sergeant in front of them had already arrived, and the first heavy armored knight was killed by the sharp sword qi as soon as the frost cold moon danced the thick-backed sword 'Emperor', and the horse he sat on was also shocked by the sword qi and vomited blood and roared, and slowly fell to the ground.
And the soldier of the battle guard behind him, the heavy shield accelerated with a short sprint and hit the heavily armored Turkic heavy cavalry, and then vainly tried to use the power of the horse to break away the heavy cavalry of the shield sergeant formation was caught off guard by such a strong force!
Immediately, the first row of sergeants who crashed into the Turkic heavy cavalry slammed their shields to the ground, raising boundless dust, and people half-knelt down, leaning on the heavy shields, and then the sergeants in the second row held heavy machetes, followed by the shoulders of the half-kneeling sergeants in front of them, and the long knives slashed into the air, and bursts of gold and iron floated through, blooming flowers of death.
After that, there was the constant neighing of war horses, and the Turkic heavy cavalry in the first row close to the soldiers of the war guard was completely wiped out!
So far, Jieli as a hole card out of the 'Grim Reaper' 3,000 heavy horses, only 2,000 remaining is also the turtle in the urn, and there is no power to return to the sky!
And at this time, in Kang Sheli's opinion, it was just the time for his heavy cavalry to break through the enemy, but he was faintly a little uneasy, the other party was too quiet, so was the sergeant guarding Yanmen Pass, and the sergeant who should have been defeated by the other party was too quiet!
Just as he was about to call someone to investigate again, the military camp on fire opposite suddenly hundreds of cavalry ran out, and he was so surprised that he fell to the ground with a telescope made of glass that the Westerners had sent him.
Because those cavalry soldiers who were running away in confusion and covered in blood were the 'Grim Reaper' heavy riders he had high hopes for!
Then he looked at the troops who had already walked far away, and the Turks were still stuck in the siege equipment that could not be moved, and shouted: "Retreat! Hurry back! ”
He tore off the arms of his blocking men and ran towards them, but in the end, he could only hear a 'buzzing' sound, and he fell to his knees weakly.
