Chapter 797: Annihilation

"Quick, the sword and shield hand retreats, the cavalry battalion!" Xu Pingshan finally decided to use the hole cards at this time, and in the northern land, the cavalry battalion was simply a nightmare. If you want to support a cavalry, the resources consumed are several times that of ordinary soldiers, and if you lose one, they will all die in distress.

However, he took this order a little for granted, if in normal times, he gave an order, the sword and shield hand would naturally retreat, but at this moment, the situation in the sword and shield hand was extremely chaotic, and the order of the herald could not be conveyed at all.

The soldiers under Fang Hong were strictly in accordance with Fang Hong's command, specially selecting the enemy's weak points to attack, and then further expanding the enemy's chaos. Vaguely, the soldiers under him were constantly cutting the formation of the Ming army, allowing the opponent's strength to divide step by step, and then being quickly devoured.

Because the situation was too chaotic, Xu Pingshan failed to find out about this, and still kept giving orders. He didn't have Fang Hong's strong spirit to monitor the situation on the battlefield at any time.

"Retreat, retreat quickly. Xu Pingshan jumped like thunder, his heart was extremely anxious, the sword and shield hand did not give way to the position, how could the cavalry have room to sprint? He was shouting loudly, but the voice was quickly annihilated in the noise, and his personal strength seemed insignificant in this vast battlefield.

"Come with me, stay close to the enemy's formation. Fang Hong's eyes did not have the slightest emotion, his thoughts were rapidly calculating, his thoughts had already monitored the enemy's cavalry in the distance and began to gather, how could he not know the other party's plans. Therefore, he didn't give the other party a chance at all, and he was stubbornly pestering the defeated Ming army.

Xu Pingshan could only be anxious from a distance, but there was no way, the cavalry was more difficult to control than the infantry, and if those war horses were frightened, it would be over, so he could only wait anxiously for the opportunity.

Time passed bit by bit, the battle lasted for nearly an hour, and the place was finally empty, not that the sword and shield men had successfully retreated, but that they were either killed or completely beaten and scattered around, and their combat effectiveness was almost completely lost.

"Cavalry, rush, rush!" Xu Pingshan waited for the opportunity, his teeth were about to be crushed, and he roared with the greatest strength, as if he was about to burst out all the anger in his body.

"Dada. The cavalry in the distance, quickly pulling the reins, drove the horses under their hips, and rushed over as fast as they could. Each horse is a preferred breed with long legs, strong muscles, fed with soy eggs, and shiny coat that looks imposing.

And the knights on horseback, all wearing leather armor inlaid with this iron sheet, holding a long knife in their hands, with solemn and murderous faces, these cavalry are different from Tatar cavalry, Tatar cavalry are light cavalry, mainly cavalry. And this Ming cavalry is a real heavy cavalry, mainly based on the impact of battle formations, and it is a real big killing weapon.

Fang Hong's eyes reflected the light, the luck of this heavy cavalry gathered together, condensed incomparably, and any flesh and blood body in front of it had to be dispersed alive.

Fang Hong's men, although they have strong strength, their equipment is too poor, and after an hour of fighting, they have reached the limit of their bodies, once they are impacted by this heavy cavalry, they basically have to turn into minced meat.

However, the biggest mistake made by the Ming army was...... Their enemies are not just people...... And God!

"Whoa. Just as the horse's charge was at its highest speed, the ground suddenly sunk into holes more than a foot deep. As soon as the horse's hooves were trampled on, they slid straight down, and at such high speeds, the horse's hooves were immediately broken, and the knight on horseback flew out at great speed, rolled on the ground a few times, and then lost his breath.

The front row of horses flipped over, while the ones behind dodged and crashed into it and fell to the ground. In this way, the entire cavalry team was instantly chaotic, and such a change occurred under such a high-speed charge, which was really the most fatal thing, the cavalry battalion of 5,000 people was directly lost by half, and the men and horses on the battlefield were piled together with each other, looking terrifying and a little ridiculous.

The hideous expression on Xu Pingshan's face also directly condensed, and immediately became white and iron-blue, and the officers and soldiers around him were also dumbfounded, this is the most elite cavalry battalion, and most of it was lost without killing an enemy?

Xu Guangzuo, who was held hostage by Zhang Zongyan in the distance, was also like ashes, could it be that the heavens were going to kill my Ming Dynasty? With only 5,000 soldiers and horses, he actually defeated 30,000 elite border troops, and the capital was already close at hand, once the capital fell, the Ming Dynasty had only two endings, one was to completely declare its demise, and the other was like the Song Dynasty, which retreated in the south to re-establish a small imperial court. But no matter what the outcome, he can't bear it.

"Fang Boy's move is quite fast. Zhang Zongyan watched the 5,000 cavalry rout like this, and he was a little surprised in his heart, although with 5,000 troops here, the pressure on it caused by the Ming National Fortune was much smaller. But Fang Hong is a god after all, even if the divine power of the god is not suppressed by the national fortune, it will be suppressed by the luck of the army, and the power that Fang Hong can exert is almost nothing. But seeing his performance, he was able to use some magical powers under such a great suppression, which could only show that Fang Hong's will was far more powerful than he imagined.

"Alright, now that your army has been defeated, then your role is gone, let's go. Zhang Zongyan patted Xu Guangzuo's shoulder and let him go.

Daming's national fortune is still endless, so this Xu Guangzuo's national luck is still connected with Daming, he is not stupid enough to kill a national grandfather, which is not good for him.

But Xu Guangzuo did not leave, what is the use of leaving now? The sword and shield hands have been defeated, the cavalry battalion has been defeated, the 30,000-strong army has lost most of its strength, and the morale of the remaining soldiers has been reduced to the lowest, and how much combat effectiveness is left?

"Take off all the weapons and armor of these cavalrymen, and you can quickly put them on. Fang Hong glanced around, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army had basically been lost, so he turned his head and said to the soldiers under him.

The men under him immediately cheered and ran directly to the cavalry who were lying on the ground. The armor on the body of these cavalry is made of cowhide mixed with iron sheets, light and strong, and the long knives used are all high-quality, and the combat effectiveness must have increased more than tenfold if they are replaced with such a body.

A group of people are like wolves that have been hungry for a long time, and they don't think they are contaminated with flesh and blood, so they just pick them off and put them on their bodies. At this time, Xu Pingshan also planned to command his men to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack, but most of the soldiers had already broken up and fled, so where could they still listen to his orders? Those who could listen to his orders numbered less than 1,000, and it was estimated that they were killed before they could go up to make a sneak attack.
