Chapter 191 The First Battle (2)
The battle formation of the cavalry hedge was not tight, and there was a considerable distance between the soldiers to cross the enemy's horses.
When the cavalry of the two armies were charging into battle, the horse's heads collided and the knight was thrown out, which would never happen to a well-trained cavalryman.
As a vanguard general, the strongest existence in the 30,000 Yanmen Army, Zhao Beiwang has always rushed to the front, taking the lead, not only inspiring the morale of the whole army, but also controlling the direction of the battle formation.
As soon as the opponent's four rounds of salvo came down, he noticed something strange, and the sharp arrows that came with a roar hit his True Qi shield, and the force did not match the Beihu arrows he was used to.
He quickly looked back at the casualties and found that the scale was much larger than he expected, which showed that the bow and arrows of the Tianyuan Army had not only shot one more round, but the power of each arrow was greater than before!
"Why did the bearded bow and arrow change so much? suddenly became so strong?" The Tianyuan army in front of him rolled up in the dust, and Zhao Beiwang's pupils suddenly shrank.
Although most of these guys dressed as Khitan army were wearing cloth robes outside, as if they had no armor, they were blown backwards by the wind in the galloping clothes, but the amplitude was very small.
The robes wrapped their bodies so tightly that nothing was exposed, but the silhouette was still unusual, and it was obvious that there was something hard inside!
Zhao Beiwang's eyes were vicious, the flat lance in his hand adjusted the direction slightly, and with the speed of the war horse, when he stabbed at a big man in front of him, he roared: "All the generals beware, they have armor under their robes!"
The generals of the Tianyuan Army in front of him were not easy to do, Zhao Beiwang stabbed at the other party's heart, and was blocked by the round shield raised by the other party.
His horse lance is a first-grade rune soldier, and his power is extraordinary, not to mention ordinary wooden shields, and rune shields below the third grade can't be blocked, but they hit the opponent's round shield hard, but they failed to break through the opponent's defense.
After a loud bang, the burst of vitality was like the sun, stabbing people's eyes uncomfortable, but the opponent's body was not affected at all, and there was still strength left, and he slashed with a backhand.
The change came suddenly, but Zhao Beiwang's movements did not hesitate, and at the last moment, he avoided the scimitar that slashed his head. The confrontation was just a flash of lightning, and the two had already staggered in the blink of an eye.
"Later stage of the Yuan Shen Realm!" The battle made Zhao Beiwang accurately judge the other party's realm, but this answer had a very big psychological impact on him! You know, he is the main general of Yanmen Pass, the strongest person in the Yanmen army!
In Zhao Beiwang's habitual cognition, in the Beihu army, only the existence of the commander level is a cultivator of the Yuan Shen Realm, and in the later stage of the Yuan Shen Realm, a Wang Ting has only one hand.
A Beihu royal court, usually only one or two Wang Ji Realm, the four major tribes combined, the number of Wang Ji Realm is definitely less than that of Daqi.
Only in this way can the Great Qi, who has less than a few King Extreme Realm cultivators with both hands, be able to suppress the grassland all the time.
The reason why the Dadan tribe thinks they are powerful and doesn't take the Tianyuan tribe in their eyes is because they have three or four king extreme realms. Such a power should have firmly occupied the head of the four royal courts of Beihu!
But now, among the tens of thousands of Tian Yuan troops in front of him, there was actually a late stage of the Yuan Shen Realm! Moreover, it was also the late stage of the Yuan Shen Realm, which was comparable to Zhao Beiwang's strength! This made him have to be frightened.
If among the 10,000 Tian Yuan Army, there is one Yuan Shen Realm late stage Great Perfection, then doesn't that mean that the Tian Yuan Army has at least two dozen such masters?
The entire Yanmen Army, the powerhouses in the late stage of the Yuan Shen Realm, are only about a dozen!
Zhao Beiwang didn't have time to think about it.
After staggering with the generals of the Tianyuan Army led by him, countless enemies rushed in front of him, and there was no end in sight.
All of them have hideous faces, fierce eyes, like man-eating ghosts, and the bright spears in their hands are even more breathtaking, dense like thorns.
Zhao Beiwang didn't have any extra movements with the horse lance in his hand, but just carried his true qi, steadily maintained a flat-end posture, and sprinted to the other party with the war horse.
With a bang, the talisman shield in the hand of a Tianyuan Army cultivator was shattered by Zhao Beiwang's long lance, and the gas explosion shook the lance slightly, but it was suppressed by Zhao Beiwang with his cultivation.
In an instant, the lance stabbed straight into the opponent's chest, and a bloody blade came out from behind, and the body of this Tianyuan Army cultivator was also taken away from the horse's back and hit his companion behind him.
Zhao Beiwang's brows furrowed, and when the long lance pierced through this Tian Yuan Army cultivator, he clearly felt the hindrance of the talisman armor. Although he succeeded in killing the other party, the high grade of the rune armor still surprised him.
"The late stage cultivators of the Imperial Qi Realm among the Hu people, even if they have talisman armor to protect their body, they are at most seven ranks, but this person's talisman armor is at least six grades!
Zhao Beiwang rushed all the way to kill the enemy, and after there were already twenty or thirty more revenants under his command, the summed up situation made his heart continue to sink.
Every soldier of the Tian Yuan Army was wearing armor, and the cultivators were all wearing talisman armor. This is no longer the Hu army, but the armament configuration that can only be possessed by the elite of Great Qi such as the Yanmen Army!
When did the Hu army have such a large amount of armor? Unless it was the pro-army of the Khan of the royal court. And at most, there are more than 10,000 people! But right now, this army is clearly not the personal guards of the Khitan or Tianyuan Khan!
Moreover, the number of cultivators in this army is surprisingly large, if there is no accident, it is even higher than the proportion of cultivators in the Yanmen army! This is something that no Hu army should achieve!
The more Zhao Beiwang rushed forward to kill, the more enemies he slashed, and the more his face turned blue.
He himself is the main general of the Yanmen Army, his strength is strong, and the soldiers on the left and right are also masters, in such a battle formation, there will be no danger to his life when he is idle.
But when encountering such an army, the 30,000 Yanmen army pioneers behind him, the situation will definitely not be good.
Taking a step back, if your own casualties are too large, the battle situation is unfavorable, and in the midst of the chaos, you are surrounded and killed by the opponent's masters, and it is not so easy for Zhao Beiwang to save his life!
"It's no wonder that this Tianyuan army dares to set up a military formation at the mouth of the valley, and does not compete with us in cavalry and archery, but directly connects with us in short arms. The strength of this army is far beyond that of other Hu people, and their commander has the confidence to win!"
Zhao Beiwang's eyebrows were lowered.
At this moment, he has penetrated deep into the enemy formation, and he must concentrate on killing the enemy, and he will easily have no time to turn back. I can't say, once he shows a little flaw, there may be a master hidden in the shadows who will give him a cold arrow.
Famous generals throughout the ages have been killed by the enemy's unexpected cold arrows, and there are countless who have fallen in the military formation.
However, the guards who followed Zhao Beiwang on both wings still kept reporting the situation of the battle formation to him, so that he could keep abreast of the changes in the battle situation.
The formation of the own side was not chaotic, and the army still maintained the momentum of the charge, and did not let the opponent disrupt the formation. After all, it was 30,000 to 10,000, and the advantage of troops was there.
However, the combat power shown by the Tianyuan Army was really strong, their armor was not lost to the Yanmen Army, and the proportion of cultivators was even higher. Therefore, at the time of the battle, the casualties of the soldiers were very large, and if it was compared with the past, it was already several times higher!
However, because of the number of people, after the completion of the charge, a Tianyuan Army soldier and the Yanmen Army soldiers to fight are almost three. In this way, their casualties will certainly not be small.
"If the elite of the other party is only more than 10,000 people, the other part of the warrior armor does not have so much, and the cultivators are not so strong, we only need to kill a few back and forth, and we can still deal with this enemy army!" Zhao Beiwang thought so.
After finding a gap, Zhao Beiwang quickly glanced at the grassy slopes on both sides of the valley mouth. The Tian Yuan army over there didn't move except for firing arrows, and I don't know if they will swoop down and fight with them.
However, as long as they rushed through the battle formation, fought all the way into the valley mouth, and broke through their defenses, the situation would change.
Zhao Beiwang was thinking like this, and suddenly heard Zhao Zhenzhong's eager voice: "There are more than 20 rejections in the valley mouth passage...... There are more than 30 trenches in it!"
Hearing this, Zhao Beiwang's heart was shocked.
After the war began, Zhao Zhenzhong, who followed Zhao Beiwang's vanguard army, had already taken to the air to respond, wanting to observe the battlefield and figure out the other party's arrangement. But unsurprisingly, he came across a Tian Yuan Army King in the early stage of the Extreme Realm.
The two fought in mid-air, running back and forth.
This is the first time that Zhao Zhenzhong has sent a message to Zhao Beiwang, and it can be seen that it was also during the battle, and he finally saw a little situation, so he immediately took the time to tell him.
More than 20 horses blocking the valley mouth are already an obstacle that is difficult to break through, and if there are more than 30 ravines, then it is absolutely impossible for these 30,000 elite horsemen to rush through.
Once you enter the valley and can't advance, there are more than 10,000 cavalry of the Tianyuan Army behind you, and there are cavalry of the Tianyuan Army swooping down on the grass slopes on both wings, and the Yanmen Army will fall into death, and you can only be caught in the urn!
The Tianyuan Army has laid a killing array for the Yanmen Army!
From the moment they arranged in front of the valley mouth, blocked the more than 10,000 elite horsemen who rejected horses and ravines, and began to rush to fight with the Yanmen army, this killing array has been activated.
When the battle formation of the Yanmen Army is staggered with the battle formation of the Tianyuan Army as a whole, no matter how many casualties or gains are made in the process, they will rush to the valley pass, and there is absolutely no second way to choose!
But in this way, the more than 10,000 elite horsemen of the Tianyuan Army are also in the place of death, and they are fighting against the water. If the battle is unfavorable, there is no possibility of retreating into the valley.
Even if it is a grassy slope, they have to climb up, and when there is a Yanmen army behind them, as long as the horse descends quickly, it is simply impossible, and they are basically waiting for death.
Only with the help of the cover of friendly troops on the grassy slope can there be a glimmer of life. But the Tianyuan Army on the grassy slope, if it was just a bow and arrow, but as long as the Yanmen Army was fighting with these more than 10,000 elite cavalry, it would not be able to do anything.
The only possibility is that the Tianyuan army on the grassy slope will also take advantage of the situation to kill and repel the Yanmen army.
"If the Tian Yuan Army on the grassy slope doesn't have armor and protection, and there aren't so many cultivators, they will rush down and die, and they won't be able to defeat us at all, unless they ......"
Thinking of this, Zhao Beiwang was shocked, "Unless the Tianyuan Army on the grass slope is as elite as these more than 10,000 cavalry!"
Zhao Beiwang looked at the grassy slopes on both sides again in disbelief.
There are close to 30,000 Tianyuan troops here, if all the warriors have armor on their bodies, and all the troops are such a high proportion of cultivators, then the combat power of these 30,000 Tianyuan troops is ......
It's enough to break through all the armies on the steppe head-on!
At this moment, Zhao Beiwang felt a chill down his spine.
How could the Tian Yuan Imperial Court have such military strength?!
When the situation was critical, Zhao Beiwang suddenly heard Zhao Ning's voice: "General, the road ahead is blocked, and there is no turning back in the formation, we must change the formation as soon as possible and kill the grass slopes on both wings!"
The voice was calm and powerful, and it was obviously not something that came out of a hurry.
