In the vast plain north of Lao Yu Mountain, the horn whimpered, and the momentum shook the sky.

The descendants of the Huang Song and Song Dynasty Pubu were 12,000 riders, Wanyan Jing rode 14,000, and 34,000 rode B-shaped horses, which were also mixed with rare heavy riders of five or six hundred horses and horses. The Beimang cavalry, which was ready to go, dragged out five or six miles in depth and was endless. Compared with the cavalry army of the border army of Beiliangliu Prefecture that appeared on the frontal battlefield with only more than 30,000 troops, Beimang's morale was not inferior, and his troops were far superior. Coach Huang Songpu did not deliberately pursue a surprisingly winning arrangement, although the battlefield here is extremely vast, but the meritorious general who sat firmly in the first person of the Southern Dynasty for more than ten years did not try his best to spread the front, obviously did not intend to fight an unprecedented large-scale chaotic battle, nor did he divide the left, middle and right armies like the Liuzhou border army, but took his own lineage as the vanguard, Wanyan Jingcai followed, and the largest number of people in the second shape of the cavalry palace, layer by layer, in this way, it weakened the strength of the chisel formation caused by the natural armor of the Beiliang border cavalry to the greatest extent, and at the same time to ensure the thickness of their own formation, it could force the Liuzhou cavalry to be stuck in the mud and reduce the number of repeated charges。

On the other hand, the grassland iron cavalry that can make the Spring and Autumn History Books "The West and Northern Xinjiang are ridden with iron hooves, conflicts gallop, come and go like the wind, gather and disperse, and the Central Plains is unstoppable".

Kou Jianghuai and Chen Xiliang stood on the top of the old woman mountain with an excellent view, overlooking the battlefield, you can see that after the cavalry of the two sides launched a charge at the same time, like two floods quickly burst the embankment, colliding with each other.

Chen Xiliang never regarded himself as a soldier who was good at military affairs, and he never treated the battlefield with the kind of blood that came from the bottom of his heart, and it can even be said that this amazing and brilliant Xu family strategist of the second generation of Tingchao Pavilion has an instinctive antipathy to the battlefield fighting, Confucianism advocates self-cultivation and Qi family governance of the country and the world, and the essence or root lies in the word Zhiping, so the world is governed and the world is peaceful, which is the real peace of mind for scholars.

Chen Xiliang subconsciously turned his head to look, and saw Kou Jianghuai, who was holding a horse in one hand and pressing a knife in the other, with a calm face. Chen Xiliang is often compared with Xu Beitong, who is also a strategist of Qingliang Mountain, this is like the Western Chu temple always likes to comment on the Kou Jianghuai Xie Xichen of the Great Chu Shuangbi according to their preferences, and it is a truth who is more brilliant in using soldiers. In the officialdom of Beiliang Pass and the border army outside the Guan, Liuzhou Don't drive Chen Xiliang and Xu Beitong, a transport envoy with a higher rank, on the contrary, the Beiliang Border Army recognizes Chen Xiliang, who has personally experienced the first Liang Mang War, and believes that Chen Xiliang has really taken over the mantle of Li Yishan of Tingchao Pavilion, and it is not that there is no chance to reach a transcendent height that can be compared with him in the future. However, the officialdom of Sanzhou, especially the Liangzhou Lingzhou where Xu Beitong stayed, has a higher opinion of Xu Beitong, and regards it as the pillar of Beiliangdao that can really be compared to Zhang Julu, the first assistant of Liyang, and has the personality of the prime minister of only one generation in one generation, and Chen Xiliang is probably just a strategic envoy in the frontier or the talent of a central book.

Chen Xiliang did not care about these high-level undercurrents in Beiliang, this is due to his temperament, although he was born in the Hanshu of Jiangnan Province, he once did not even have the qualifications to participate in the celebrity Qing Talks and sit at the same table, but compared to many officials in the Liyang Dynasty who passed the imperial examination and seemed to suddenly turn purple overnight, Chen Xiliang is more open-minded, but some people often half-jokingly say to him that Xu Beiji has a dispute between high and low, and even Yang Guangdou is blunt, whether the gentleman fights or not, it depends on the timing, and warns him Chen Xiliang must not take everything seriously and blindly retreat。 For the big Chu Shuangbi who is now leading the army to fight in Liuzhou, Chen Xiliang thinks that he has a slightly better impression of Xie Xichen, who later came to Liuzhou, he is a scholar and a martial artist, but his background is comparable, they are all at the bottom of the market, and Xie Xichen is more in line with the impression of a scholar like a jade than Kou Jianghuai, a son of the Guangling Dao clan with a proud temperament.

But even so, the deeper the relationship with him, Chen Xiliang gradually admired Kou Jianghuai sincerely, remembering reading history when he was young, and reading that "victory is not vain, defeat is not discouraged, and those who have thunder in their chests and face like a peaceful lake can worship the general", which is quite fascinating. At this time and now, Chen Xiliang looked at Kou Jianghuai's resolute face, and felt in his heart, "Everyone in the art of war, this is how it should be".

Kou Jianghuai didn't turn his head, and suddenly said: "If I win this battle, but Xie Xichen dies in battle, then for me, Beiliang wins, and I lose." ”

Chen Xiliang, who has been immersed in officialdom for many years, naturally knows the mystery and wonders: "In this case, why did Kou Jiangjun still promise General Xie to go to the north generously?"

Kou Jianghuai smiled, with a natural expression on his face, and said slowly, "In the Battle of Dingding in the Spring and Autumn Period, do you know how many cavalry troops on both sides really put into the battlefield? In fact, the cumulative number of horses is less than 140,000, which is far less than the fact that the two sides still reinforce 40,000 or 50,000 infantry troops at once in the middle and late stages of the battlefield, not only because the troops of both countries were greatly consumed before the final battle, and the cavalry army suffered a large number of casualties early, but also because the territory of Guangling Road was not suitable for large-scale cavalry gathering and fighting. So don't say it's me and Xie Xichen, even Cao Changqing, or all the people who use soldiers in the Central Plains, will have a knot, that is, with the grassland cavalry that is known as the invincible in the world after Dafeng, to have a dignified and upright cavalry battle, without relying on the danger and passing, without defending the Xiongcheng, on the flat battlefield, war horse against war horse, war knife against war knife......"

Speaking of this, Kou Jianghuai paused slightly, released the reins and the handle of the knife with both hands, and suddenly clenched his fists and smashed them together, "Hard to hit, let's have a dignified collision!"

Kou Jianghuai's eyes were hot, "And!

Rao is a civil and cultural official like Chen Xiliang who rejects the death and injury on the battlefield, and when he heard this, he inevitably surged with a strong and fierce emotion.

Kou Jianghuai stretched out an arm and pointed to the battlefield at the foot of the mountain where the two armies were about to collide, "It just so happens that the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is in front of me and Xie Xichen, I want to win, and he wants to win, so no matter who it is, he can't lose! It's just that Xie Xichen is even more ruthless, and he is willing to pay the price of his life for this big battle." I'm not as good as him, I'm just willing to bear the price of a bleak future in Beiliang Shitu in the future. Heroes regain success or failure, and heroes do not hesitate to die. Maybe in the future, Xie Xichen will have more praise than me. ”

Chen Xiliang was speechless.

On the battlefield on the right side of Lao Fei Mountain, the battle of 100,000 cavalry troops on both sides was spectacular and tragic.

In order to increase the intensity of the carving formation, the three cavalry armies of Liuzhou in the center of the homeless young cavalry army, and with 6,000 direct collision battalions, they took the lead in accelerating the charge and jumped out of the original front.

In the first charge, Huang Songpu did not use the veritable ironclad heavy cavalry, but hid it outside the battlefield, still the old marshal himself led the elite cavalry, and it was still the veteran who was once the king of the Southern Courtyard to take the lead.

Abandoning the cavalry battle of luring the enemy and loitering tactics, the cavalry crashed into the formation, which was a change of life.

The 6,000 direct collision battalion, as the tip of the cone formation, gradually reduced the width of the front line during the acceleration, and collided with the 12,000 horsemen under the command of Huang Song Pu, who was in an orderly formation.

Liuzhou iron hooves chisel formation, such as a big cone to open the mountain.

Including the direct collision battalion, a total of 10,000 cavalry in Liuzhou charged desperately.

The deeper they carved the formation, the easier it was for the two dragon elephant armies on the two flanks of the cone formation to tear through the thickness of the Northern Mang's cavalry.

The front, middle and rear armies deployed by Huang Songpu were stacked in formation, and in this kind of collision formation without any fancy effects, they exerted amazing results.

The 12,000 cavalry led by the old commander is the first-class frontier elite who have been in battle for a long time, and it is already better than the Liuzhou border cavalry built by the homeless people.

The two sides opened each other's formations and advanced 500 steps, and the Liuzhou cavalry was constantly stabbed off the horse, and hit the first two thousand horsemen at the head of the battalion cone, and the dead on the spot were five or six out of ten, and the people who fell off the horse were under the continuous collision of the thickness of this cavalry formation, often even causing rapid stagnation to the Beimang enemy cavalry became a luxury, and the Beimang cavalry did not even need to deliberately cut off the head, and the war horse ran straight through.

The 14,000 Wanyan elite cavalry did not follow the cavalry of the Huang Song and Pu tribes, but deliberately gradually opened a distinct gap of six or seven hundred steps between the two armies, so that the private army of the family under the command of Wanyan Yinjiang with good physical strength could launch a second charge.

When the remaining 7,000 or so Liuzhou cavalry carved out the cavalry formation of the Huang Song and Pubu tribes, they just faced the Wanyan Jingqi who had just been boosted to the extreme.

The speed and momentum of one side are declining, and the momentum of one side is at its peak, and the result of the collision is obvious.

Fourteen thousand Wanyan Jing rode horses with spears and spears in hand, and with the impact of the war horse charge, they were incomparably powerful.

Five hundred horsemen from Liuzhou were actually killed by a photo of the horse.

So much so that the Wanyan cavalry in the rear even had the leisure to seize the opportunity to bend down a little and stab to death those Liuzhou cavalry who unfortunately landed.

When this Liuzhou cavalry army, which broke out twice, finally encountered the largest number of B-shaped cavalry troops, it had already suffered heavy losses.

Fortunately, their sacrifice reduced a lot of pressure on the dragon elephant army on the left and right wings.

No matter how wild geese fly north and south, they are always the most difficult for the head goose.

The battlefield cone formation is like a goose flying, even more so.

Although the cavalry army drawn up by the Yizi Gaomen of the Southern Dynasty had the thickest formation and the longest depth, it did not pose much threat to the Liuzhou cavalry, and it obviously suffered a lot in the face of the dragon elephant army that had little damage in battle.

It's just a swap of battlefield positions.

On both sides, corpses are everywhere, and people and horses are everywhere.

However, the cavalry formations of both sides still maintain a relatively stable formation, which means that in the next charge, there will be more dead and easier.

Chen Xiliang stood on the top of the mountain, and after witnessing this tragic collision, he was silent.

If you only judge by the battlefield of Lao Fei Mountain, if this situation continues, the final winner will only be Beimang.

Kou Jianghuai looked indifferent from beginning to end.

There are not enough dead people here, Beimang doesn't feel that the battle exploits are at his fingertips, or Huang Songpu realizes that the situation is not right, then the final encirclement of Lao Yushan will not be able to block Beimang's main force at all, after all, this is not the Hulukou of Youzhou, which is blessed with a unique geographical situation, and there is no terrifying soldiers and horses like the Great Snow Dragoon and the two Beiliang Heavy Cavalry to intercept the retreat.

Kou Jianghuai turned his head to look southeast.
