Section 80 General Battle 11
readx;
The cave water river originates from the eastern foot of Jiming Mountain in the southern foot of Pinglu Province, because of its mountain source several large cave group springs like pillars, the water volume is extremely rich and gets the name of cave water, at first it is just a small stream, and then there are several branches of different sizes when running out of the Jiming mountain area, the water volume is greatly increased, the mighty and mighty along the south of Pinglu to the east after flowing into the Fan River, it is an important tributary of the Fan River.

Although the southern part of Pinglu is dominated by plains, there are many ravines that divide the entire Great Plains into many broken small plains, although they are not as rugged as the northern part of Pinglu, but they also have a certain impact on large-scale military operations. The Kaman people therefore chose to move west along the Cave River, due to a drought in the eastern continent this year, the flow of the Cave River is much smaller than in previous years, even less than a quarter of the original amount of water, so there are a few wide mud fields left along the river beach, plus the large wasteland left out of the original river flood time, the terrain is quite flat, after the sun exposure, the mud floor is knotted, this area along the river has also become the best route for the army to march on a large scale.
The Kamans also took a fancy to this and arbitrarily believed that the Northwest Army did not dare to go out of the city to meet the battle in the case of an absolute disadvantage, so they were relieved to boldly march westward, but they did not expect to collide head-on with the 3rd Heavy Cavalry Division of the Tengger Regiment along the east of the river.
The collision of the light and heavy cavalry quickly divided into results, like a huge wedge, Mao Jin led his division to cut through the two Kamanwan cavalry teams advancing westward, and continued to charge eastward, and immediately melee with the two hoplite cavalry ten thousand cavalry teams that followed the light cavalry westward. This battle of the hoplites was the first time that the hoplites of the Northwest Army competed with the Kaman hoplites, who were known as the No. 1 in the Eastern Continent.
On one side is the Kaman heavy cavalry known as the Iron Army, and on the other side is the newly rising Northwest Army heavy cavalry, spear to spear, iron armor to iron armor, the Northwest Army has a slight advantage in numbers, and the Carmen obviously did not expect such a battle to break out in this situation, and the third heavy cavalry division inserted in a wedge shape first achieved a small victory.
The frantically invading Northwest Cavalry did give the Kaman Iron Cavalry a blow to the head, but the battle-hardened Kaman Iron Cavalry quickly adjusted its deployment and regrouped into a regular phalanx, fighting fiercely with the Northwest Iron Cavalry, which had been blocked by the light cavalry in front. The iron spear flew over, Jin Ge was vertical and horizontal, and every collision was only a neat shout and the sound of the impact of the metal weapon and the dull sound of the weapon hitting the body, the heavy muffled sound of the corpse falling to the ground and the sound of the horse's hooves falling to the ground were intertwined, and it was impossible to distinguish what it was, and the corpse that fell to the ground soon turned into a mass of flesh wrapped in iron armor under the iron hooves.
The Kaman Iron Cavalry, known as the undefeated Iron Army, quickly showed their combat effectiveness accumulated over hundreds of years, and it may be difficult to distinguish between the two ironclad cavalry in their respective battlefields, but this face-to-face duel can immediately see the difference between the two sides. The Kaman people with a hundred years of iron and blood to forge military discipline and combat power is indeed not comparable to the army formed in the northwest in just a few years, especially in the absolute discipline style of heavy cavalry, the two steel torrents collided and produced a huge tremble, and even the whole earth trembled, the fusion torrent began to deform and mix and finally developed into chaos, although the northwest iron cavalry took the lead in the battle in terms of numbers, and even occupied the lead, but the tenacious Kaman people gradually reversed the unfavorable situation and gradually occupied the initiative on the battlefield with their tenacious fighting spirit after paying a certain price。
Hessesen's iron helmet and beast-shaped shield, heavy overlapping iron leaf armor, tough and thick horse armor, strong and powerful hands with sharp iron spears or long ges swinging gusts of wind and thunder, the snorting and neighing of horses under the crotch seem to contain this infinite power, and the huge habitual acceleration is enough for an iron horse weighing more than a thousand catties to collapse a thick wall. There is not much difference between the two sides, whether in terms of armor or equipment, only the expressions in the eyes of both sides can see the difference in the styles of the two sides. On the one hand, it is cold and calm and ruthless and indifferent, as if it has been soaked in the vicissitudes and difficulties of a hundred years, even if Mount Tai presses the top of the river and flows backwards, there will not be a trace of color change, on the other hand, it is fanatical and surging with pride, as if the thousand-year-old lava suddenly bursts out, even if there is a copper wall in front of it, it also collapses.
The piercing sound of metal impact continues to make people feel like they are in a huge blacksmith workshop, deafening, and the roar that erupts from the soldier's bosom is even louder in the sky, no matter how successful or lost this ironclad cavalry collision is, it is enough to go down in the history of the Eastern Continent War as a classic bloody battle that is rare in a century.
Bloody vs. Leng Jun finally divided the winner and loser. Although the Northwest Iron Cavalry took the lead in the early stage, the powerful Kaman Iron Cavalry soon reversed the disadvantage with strict discipline and methodical tactical adjustment, and the battle between the two sides entered the stage of competing for the real strength of the cavalry, and the Kaman people's proud iron cavalry did not disappoint them, and after quickly weakening the teams on both wings of the Northwest Iron Cavalry, the Kaman Iron Cavalry quickly divided the Northwest Iron Cavalry into a large block and several small pieces, and used a small phalanx to launch a charge to encircle and suppress the small Northwest Iron Cavalry group.
Although the Northwest Iron Cavalry, which lacks to deal with this kind of scene, is also fighting to the death, but the tactics, The gap in experience and will is not just courage and blood can be bridged, fortunately, as the commander of the third heavy cavalry division, Mao Jin soon discovered this irreversible trend, he was born as a bandit, what he is best at is to evacuate in an unfavorable situation, he can't let his first heavy cavalry division in the northwest be destroyed in the hands of the Kamans, stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood, as long as he can get out of the encirclement, the combat strength of the Northwest Iron Cavalry will definitely be able to reach a new level, not to mention that he has also preliminarily completed the planned interception task。
Although the Kaman cavalry had the upper hand, they were not able to outflank this powerful ironclad cavalry, the northwest cavalry that broke through to the north quickly tore apart the Kamans' defense line in the north, of course, they left as many as 10,000 corpses, the Kamans also paid a heavy price for the strangulation of this iron cavalry, there were more than 6,000 Kaman elite ironclad cavalry paid for their lives in this encounter, plus the light cavalry that was caught off guard in front, the loss of the Kaman people in numbers was almost as large as the number of losses of the Northwest Iron Cavalry.
The eastward counterattack of the Northwest Iron Cavalry greatly disrupted the attack plan of the Carmans, especially the Northwest Army, which still retained the strength of 10,000 heavy cavalry, broke through to the north, which was equivalent to inserting into the rear of the Carmen who were advancing rapidly, which made the Carman Southern Front army have to consider that their flanks may face the impact of the Northwest Iron Cavalry at any time, and Count Gustavus, as the commander of the Southern Front, could only slow down while sending light cavalry to pursue, and was also worried about the Northwest Army's quick response ability.
The southern front is not going very well, and the same is true of the northern front. If the southern front was a hard-fought confrontation between the Northwest Army and the Kaman army, then the battle situation on the northern front became a game of hide and seek. 30,000 Mott light cavalry fully demonstrated the nomadic as the king of light cavalry, in the northern front of the Kaman just entered the flat land short, Mott light cavalry divided into two ways, took the initiative to attack, avoiding the menacing Kaman cavalry, detour to raid the Kaman infantry group that followed the Kaman cavalry attack, the good combat quality of the Kaman infantry and the superior emergency ability helped them a lot, but the nomadic light cavalry still caused them the loss of two thousand people, and they were helpless in the face of the nomadic cavalry coming and going, while strengthening the defense, they had to slow down。
As the commander of the Northern Front Cluster, the commander of the Fourth Corps, Hurley, did not expect that he had just stepped into Pinglu Mansion and would encounter a fierce counterattack by the Northwest Army. Whether it is in terms of mobility and tactical formation changes and the natural riding power of horses, the innate ability of the nomadic cavalry to change at the same time and time is beyond the reach of the Kaman light cavalry, and it is often the nomadic cavalry that has passed before they hurried to the battlefield, and can only watch these arrogant guys roar away.
The non-stop raid of the nomadic cavalry not only brought considerable losses to the cluster infantry on the northern front, but also greatly damaged the morale of the Kaman infantry, and the marching speed of the Kaman infantry was also greatly delayed, Hurley could only report the situation to the commander at the same time, slow down the march, shorten the distance between the front and rear troops, and strengthen the guards on both flanks, and in this way, the nomadic cavalry also changed the way of attack, dispersed into more attack squads, often in a thousand units of troops, taking long-distance raids based on bow and arrow attacks, focusing on attacking the logistics baggage troops in the rear, often after the overwhelming rockets, the logistics baggage vehicles ignited a raging fireEither it was a rain of arrows against the marching infantry ranks, and by the time you organized a counterattack, they had already slipped away.
This multi-point attack, which encompasses the entire inter-march cluster, makes the Kaman northern line cluster more threatened, which makes Hurley angry but helpless.
