Chapter Twenty-Five: Foot and Horse Duel

Indeed, the outcome has not yet been decided.

Su Mengzhen could only count Li Xun's depression, which was deliberate, and he calculated it.

But he couldn't have known that the Bloodslaughter Camp had been reorganized into armor and cavalry equipment in the past twenty years, which was originally the top secret of Mikawa. Even Jiu Tadaji only learned about it not long ago.

Such a transition was not easy, which is why it took twenty years, and in the process, even veterans of a hundred battles died from the great pain of training.

And in the Central Plains, getting two hundred sets of equipment and hundreds of spirit beast-level war horses that can withstand the unity of humans and horses is even more huge.

According to Su Mengzhen's original estimate, the Blood Slaughter Battalion should rely on the running speed that is not lost to the cavalry in a short period of time, act at the same time as the light cavalry, rely on the powerful infantry phalanx to storm the Shentang Army, and combine the infantry and cavalry to cause great damage in the large battalion.

This was the way the bloody battalion fought twenty years ago.

The tactics of combining heavy cavalry and light cavalry are undoubtedly more rapid and fierce and difficult to stop.

Zhao Zhonggao's expression was cold.

It was not easy for the heavy cavalry to turn around and retreat en masse, not to mention the narrow roads in the camp.

Both sides are fighting against the water, and there is no way back.

The Blood Killing Camp duel eleven smash law will be the most gorgeous gamble in the Central Plains in decades.

"Blood Slaughter Battalion, Charge!" With Zhao Zhonggao's long roar, the bloody Blood Slaughter Heavy Cavalry roared like a vast ocean, charging towards the array of Divine Hall infantry that also looked like a gable.

A Thousand Troops Surge!

Su Mengzhen stood proudly in the formation, and his mind was scattered.

He's unleashing the power of the formation.

When the soldiers formed a strict formation, the place where the main general's feet stepped turned into the eyes of the formation, echoing the fighting spirit of all the soldiers. The power of this array was fed back to each soldier, turning into a more powerful offensive and defensive force.

In the formation, the power of ordinary soldiers will also be greatly improved, and they will be able to launch powerful tactics. It is no wonder that even the top masters dare not rush into battle at will before the time comes.

But the Knights of the Three Rivers also formed a sharp array of arrows, as sharp as a knife, indestructible.

Spears snapped, shields were blown to pieces with monstrous force, and even halberds made entirely of steel were bent.

The priest of the temple, who could not withstand the impact, directly bleed from his mouth and nose and fell to the ground and died.

But immediately the void was filled by sharp soldiers with the same striking words written on their faces, and they stepped directly on the corpses of their comrades, as if there was nothing there.

In a bloody battle, the corpse is no different from a small dirt bag.

Even the extremely powerful heavy cavalry of the bloody slaughter battalion, there are people who face the strongest part of the Shentang military array, suffer a powerful counterattack, or under the stabbing of several halberds, the heavy armor cannot withstand the superimposed blows of true qi, and the Dao pattern is overloaded and collapses, and the people and horses are blown into a cloud of flesh and blood, or they are shot through the breastplate by the strong crossbow in the rear and killed, or they are cut off by the hook and sickle, and they fall to the ground like pushing a jade pillar on the mountain.

The soldiers of the bloody slaughter battalion who lost their war horses still bravely rose up to fight on foot, but the fighting armor of the unity of men and horses, after losing the war horses, the combat effectiveness naturally plummeted.

"Your sins, the enemy's punishment, the end of the crime and punishment, is today!" Su Mengzhen raised his voice and shouted, and the armor soldiers of the Divine Hall faced the impact of the enemy's cavalry, but their fighting spirit became more and more high.

"Atonement. ”

"Bloodbath!"

"Revenge!"

"Annihilate the bloody camp and crush the three rivers to the ground!"

The soldiers of the Divine Hall rushed into the sky with a fierce spirit. They were dressed in black armor, with black sin on their faces, and their expressions were hideous, like evil spirits in hell.

This is a battle between demons and Shura.

The black demon fought to the death because of his guilt, and the blood-colored Shura deserved nothing for the survival of the sect.

However, the camp was eventually entrenched on the open plain, and when the obstacles were mostly destroyed, the terrain became extremely favorable for cavalry charges.

Among the troops brought by Su Mengzhen, there were only 6,000 soldiers, and the eleven slaughters of the team with corrupt military discipline, plus the losses caused by the destruction of seven bases and three gates, the remaining troops must be less than this.

Most of the routed soldiers who came back from the tunnel were out of courage and could not participate in the battle for a while. And most of the soldiers still need to hold their positions in order to meet Li Zhong's Sanhe army and kill the Huangxu Dao Department outside Anxiang City.

A thousand mixed armor soldiers and crossbowmen had no advantage in a battle against 200 armored cavalry and 500 light cavalry on the plains.

The priests of the Divine Hall, who claimed not to take a step back, finally began to retreat imperceptibly. But whenever the enemy cavalry showed a gap, they continued to move forward without fear of death.

The sun is getting brighter.

The temple soldiers sweated like rain.

No barrier could stop the torrent of blood, except for their flesh and blood.

The words of sin on their cheeks had been blurred with sweat, and their expressions were tired, but their eyes were still full of will, determination, and murder.

Even if you fight to the last man, you will never give up your position.

Until the enemy is destroyed.

Zhao Zhonggao's expression moved slightly.

It turns out that the soldiers of Yuxi, who are known for their greed for life and fear of death, can also be tenacious to such a point!

He looked at the two lieutenants on the side.

The two nodded and roared in unison.

"Cheer up!" A voice sounded in the air like thunder, echoing between the camps and villages, and it did not disperse for a long time.

There were faint green vines, sprouting from the tall knight's body, quickly covering the entire camp, dispersing the bloody aura on the ground.

And the surging black qi emitted from the other person's body, pounced on the priests of the Divine Hall, and for a while, the brave and incomparable armor soldiers actually shivered one after another.

Zhao Zhonggao presided over the center, and the two respectively launched the restoration of the tactics of war to "inspire" and improve their morale, and used the primary disruptive tactics of "coercion" to reduce the morale of the enemy.

Using tactics to control morale is an effective way, but the more soldiers, the less effective the control becomes. Moreover, unleashing tactics will also consume a lot of fighting spirit.

In battle, the quantitative fighting spirit associated with battle qi is very limited, and it needs to be accumulated slowly through battle, so it must be used sparingly.

The combination of two opposing tactics has achieved miraculous results. The change in morale caused a gap in the phalanx of the Shentang Army to be torn apart.

Zhao Zhonggao was about to urge his division to attack.

But Su Mengzhen suddenly went to the gap, and looked at Lin Xiuzhen on the side with sharp eyes.

"Launch!" Su Mengzhen shouted like a thunderbolt.

Lin Xiuzhen had a look of fear on her face, but she controlled her mind and connected with Su Mengzhen.

The will of the two of them spread to the entire formation in an instant.

The blue light spread out like water waves, and the wounded soldiers felt that the pain disappeared in an instant, and their bodies that were unable to move due to the injuries became flexible again.

This is not just psychological stimulation, but the effect of the "treatment" of tactics. The wounds of the lightly wounded healed quickly and at a rate visible to the naked eye, and the seriously wounded temporarily regained their combat capability, even if at the cost of dying from overdrawing their strength after the battle.

Lin Xiuzhen's own cultivation is not high, but as a deputy general, he used Su Mengzhen's strong cultivation as a support to launch a combat method "treatment", and he received miraculous results.

The faltering front was stabilized by the recovery of a large number of wounded soldiers.

At the gap, Su Mengzhen rushed towards Zhao Zhonggao who was galloping bravely, dancing with his sleeves and slashing out the aftermath of ten thousand ways.

The blade is transparent, and the blade is crimson, like transparent glass with crimson bone ridges.

The sword technique is poignant and treacherous, but there is a killing intent that overshadows the thousands of miles of territory.

Zhao Zhonggao raised the treasure spear, swept out in the air, the lightning was surging, and with the bonus of heavy armor and the charging power of the iron horse, he was hit by Su Mengzhen's knife and flew away.

Ye Luo, the deputy commander of the Blood Killing Battalion, stabbed him with a spear, and was stabbed by Su Mengzhen, and he was so shocked that he retreated, and a trace of blood was overflowing from his mouth, and he was already injured.

Later, Jiu Zhongci, the leader of the younger generation of the Three Rivers Sword Sect, was also shocked back by Su Mengzhen's sword.

There are countless warriors in the blood killing camp, but no one is the enemy of Su Mengzhen!

Zhao Zhonggao sighed in his heart.

Su Mengzhen is worthy of being the male master of the Shentang generation, and his cultivation is shocking.

It's a pity that the old owner is no longer there.

If Li Qing is still in this world, as soon as the cross sword trick of "the sky is full of clouds and wilderness, and the river is covered with snow and sand" comes out, what is Su Mengzhen's red sleeve knife?

Even if Su Youguang, the number one master of the Divine Hall, is here, he is just like a local chicken and a dog!

Lin Xiuzhen's tactics and treatment successfully stabilized the position of the Shentang army, and Su Mengzhen used his own strength to kill and retreat the enemy, and plugged the gap until the reserve soldiers filled it.

"Well done. Su Mengzhen's eyes were calm and looked at Lin Xiuzhen.

Lin Xiuzhen showed a smug smile: "How can I, 'Peerless of the Three Kingdoms', Lin Xiuzhen, be in vain?"

Although this person is not smart, he does have his strengths, otherwise he would not be the patriarch of the Lin family, let alone be reused by Su Mengzhen. Not to mention anything else, there are extremely few cultivators of this "healing" tactic, and the effect is considerable, and it can be seen at present.

Su Mengzhen's eyes were slightly raised, looking at the lost Zhao Zhonggao.

"The transformation of the Bloody Battalion into heavy cavalry is not necessarily a good thing. ”

"Oh?" Zhao Zhonggao replied.

Su Mengzhen flicked his sleeves, and Tsing Yi was sassy: "Sanhe does not have talents with strong cavalry tactics. If you hadn't bombarded us with encouragement and coercion just now, but with a powerful infantry tactic, the huge impact force generated in an instant might have caused our side to collapse. ”

Su Mengzhen refers to the fact that if the Blood Killing Battalion is not reorganized into heavy cavalry, it can launch powerful infantry combat methods.

Sanhe has always had no shortage of infantry combat talents, and each generation of the Zhao family has excellent infantry combat skills.

"However, you have missed the best opportunity. ”

Zhao Zhonggao sighed.

Su Mengzhen is right, there will be gains and losses.

Knowing that Su Mengzhen was going to use this to hit the fighting spirit of the Three Rivers Knights, Zhao Zhonggao was also difficult to refute.

But the favorable situation on the side of the three rivers has been completely lost, and the spirit has fallen.

The battle was still stalemate, and the Shendo army began to fight back, biting the Knights of the Three Rivers to the death, making it difficult for them to escape.

Zhao Zhonggao gritted his teeth, uncertain.

Just as he was considering whether to retreat regardless of losses.

Suddenly, a whistling sound pierced the sky.

On the side of the Knights of the Three Rivers, there were more than 100 light horsemen surging like a tide.

One of them was an incomparably handsome young man riding an ice-blue horse with a red sword hanging from his waist. The other was dressed in steel armor, covered with a sea-blue coat, riding a red horse, and his hair was swept up by the wind.

In the fierce battle, Wu Feng and Ji Hongyan had already led the light cavalry team of the Divine Hall, through the passage in the camp, and detoured back to the side of the Three Rivers Knights!

In fact, at this time, the Divine Hall armorers had also been exhausted to the extreme in the fierce battle.

On the plains, it is difficult to use infantry without absolute numerical superiority against armored cavalry.

However, not only did they not take a step back, but they also moved forward bravely, and finally managed to survive until their cavalry succeeded in a roundabout way.

The flanks of the Bloodslaughter Battalion finally began to disarray.

Zhao Zhonggao and Ye Luo, the deputy commander of the Blood Killing Battalion, looked at each other.

The outcome has already been decided.
