Section 380 Bravery

Orders from the generals continued to be passed quickly among the soldiers, and the foot soldiers who went out of the city to line up checked their armor and weapons for the last time, and the distance between the robes and robes slowly widened, forming a charging formation waiting at any time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The war drums at the head of the city began to "knock knock" hammer sound, when the first cavalry appeared in the city gate hole, the second, third, dense cavalry groups also began to pour out of the city gate, Yang Lin, who appeared first, pointed the sharp cavalry spear in his hand diagonally to the sky as soon as he came out of the city gate, his eyes were wide open, and a terrifying roar erupted from his mouth.

"Kill, kill all these damn ghosts and barbarians---"

Lined up outside the city early, tens of thousands of Chu army foot soldiers who couldn't bear it in the face of the barbaric behavior of the Yue Ghost roared at the same time. The soldiers standing in the first row began to trot forward, followed by the second and third rows, moving forward in a group.

The shouting and killing sound in Yang Lin's mouth never stopped, nor did he stop the gallop of the horses under his crotch. When he took the lead in riding forward across the war horse, one cavalry after another rushed out of the city gate, and the cavalry who went out of the city gate did not hesitate, followed Yang Lin and kept patting the butt of the war horse, forward, forward, and forward, slowly forming an arrow formation in the gallop, and then charging forward with the roaring hooves of the horses.

"The cavalry, it turned out to be the cavalry ......"

At this moment, whether it was Ruan Chen Changguang standing on the small slope, or Ruan Shuize Liang and Ruan Qingshi Fang on the walled arrow tower, all of them showed expressions of surprise and surprise on their faces.

Yuan County is just a very small county seat. It was so unexpected that there were cavalry garrisons in such a place. Who would have thought that Yang Sui would not make a move, and as soon as he made a move, he would directly dispatch the cavalry, which was even more unprepared.

Moreover, there are still so many of them.

What is the concept of cavalry? In the south, especially in the eyes of the Yue ghost barbarians, such a thing as a horse is simply a luxury. Regardless of the cost of raising a horse, even if a horse is trafficked from the north for a long distance, its value will be increased countless times over. What's more, since ancient times, horses have not been produced in the Central Plains, and even in the north, cavalry is not very active. From ancient times to the present, all countries in the Central Plains have spent a lot of effort in raising horses, and they have also taken a fancy to the many advantages of cavalry. 2 Especially in the battle of Qin and Zhao Changping thousands of years ago, Wu Anjun used cavalry on a large scale to cut off the enemy's grain route for the Zhao army. Since then, neither the people of the Central Plains nor anyone, especially the Yue ghosts in the south, have never heard of a battle in which a large number of cavalry can charge the enemy army in a tight line.

"Hold on!

Ruan Chen Changguang's face showed a look of horror, and he shouted repeatedly, ordering the Yue ghosts around him to prepare to accept the impact. Although the Yue Ghost did not have an organized cavalry unit, this type of army could have a devastating impact on the infantry, which was still known to Nguyen Tran Chang Quang, who was the commander of the army.

Ruan Shuize Liang and Ruan Qingshi, who were standing in the distance, looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say at this time. We can only wait silently and see what kind of results will appear.

The cavalry commanded by Yang Lin changed from acceleration to full speed, and the cavalry spears in each cavalryman's hand were tightly held under their armpits with one hand, and they bent down slightly to wait for the force brought by the impact, and they were also waiting to release them immediately once the cavalry spear stabbed the target

From the point of view of combat, cavalry is indeed not suitable for attacking crowded enemy formations, even after the appearance of saddles and stirrups in another world, unless it is a heavy cavalry with full body heavy armor protection, otherwise, relying on the speed and weight of the horses themselves, cavalry is still not suitable for attacking the infantry phalanx.

The biggest advantage of cavalry is speed, which can project troops to the desired battlefield position in a short time. In the military history of another world, it was not until more than 1,000 AD, that is, the period of the rise of the Mongols, that is, the era when the saddle and stirrup matured, and the cavalry was regarded as the overlord of the land. At that time, the cavalry combat method was still mainly based on cavalry shooting, and it was definitely not used to charge into battle.

When Yang Tianhong formed the cavalry, he told the generals under his command about the characteristics of the cavalry, and also prepared the cavalry in the formation of continuous and single-shot mounted crossbows. However, the 3,000 cavalry who were the first to accompany Yang Sui to the south only carried light single-shot crossbows. In the current situation, they did not use crossbows in order to open a gap for the follow-up foot soldiers, and did not want to expose the cavalry's ability to shoot horses prematurely.

What other people's cavalry looks like, Yang Tianhong doesn't care. However, the cavalry in the Xuanhuo Legion are all built according to the powerful concrete cavalry. The horses in the Xuanhuo Army are all war beasts fed with Dan liquid. It is more than three meters tall and weighs several tons. These war beasts, based on horses with excellent bloodlines, have surprisingly strong physiques. They can carry heavy armor that can weigh up to half a ton, and can also carry cavalry who are also heavily armoured. All things add up, and the weight of such a war beast is about eight tons when it hits in battle.

The weight, combined with the speed, creates a frightening impact. In the face of this terrible impact, there was no formation of troops that could stop it.

It is also costly to feed these war beasts. Since it is a war beast, it is naturally impossible for the food to be compared with ordinary horses. Pigs and sheep were slaughtered every day in the Xuanhuo Army, on the one hand, for the daily diet of the soldiers, and on the other hand, for the blood of pigs and sheep. War beasts are not desolate beasts, and although they have taken the pill liquid to greatly improve their physique, they are still horses in essence. The forage is mixed with cow, sheep and pig blood, and a considerable amount of eggs and black beans are stirred. Only in this way can the war beast maintain its physical fitness.

Of course, this is all the domestication method of previous years. Now, Yang Tianhong is also learning from the practice of another world, crushing beef and sheep bones into minced pieces, mixing them with marine fish bone meal, and mixing them in forage to feed. 2 In this way, the physical strength of the war beast has also been further improved.

Pure cavalry is indeed not suitable for attacking the enemy formation, Yang Sui, who is the defender of Yuan County, and Yang Lin, the cavalry general, actually know it, but what does it matter, they are facing the more ghosts and barbarians, a barbarian who can't even put out the military formation. As long as the cavalry made a wave of charge to disrupt the enemy, and then made a detour to the left and right after breaking through the gap for the foot soldiers behind, they did not think that the more ghosts could react so quickly.

If the three thousand cavalry were placed on the northern steppe, they would be nothing at all. But here, it's a shocking torrent of steel. When the roaring horses' hooves trample on the ground, those standing on the ground with their feet can clearly feel the ground shaking. Ruan Chen Changguang, the general of the Yue Ghost who was standing on the small low slope, even saw the stones rolling down because of the shaking of the ground, and also saw the strange smiles on the faces of the Chu women who were originally no different from the walking dead and helpless.

It was as if she had seen a rare glimmer of light in the darkness of despair, and the Han woman who had been traumatized physically and mentally was not laughing at someone who wanted to come and save her. In fact, there are almost no of them who want to continue living. The reason why they were laughing was because before they died, they could see that those beasts were inferior to the ghosts that could be killed by their own people one by one.

The smile of the Han woman, as well as the constant screams of horror and screams from the front, made Ruan Chen Changguang's face become extremely hideous. He flew into a rage and roared at the ghosts around him: "Throw them all into the pot! Hurry up! Otherwise, the gods will be angry." ”

Or the ritual is the most important. In the minds of the ghosts, no one has the horror of ghosts and gods.

Not all shamans were left behind and killed by Baili Feng and others. Two shamans followed the formation to the front. Next to them were a dozen so-called servants of the gods covered in oil paint. They didn't immediately grab the Han woman and throw it into the pot, but turned around and looked at the shaman shaman with tattoos all over his body, a little blankly.

Shamans are also afraid. They haven't recovered from the sudden change, they are noble god agents, and they are 120,000 happy to pretend to be gods and ghosts in a safe environment, but let them face the danger head-on, that's not what a noble god agent should do.

"Throw it, throw it away, listen to the chief, throw it all in, and hurry back!"

The shamans ran away as soon as they finished shouting, after all, this side was about to become a battlefield soon. Although there is no need to be afraid of the shaman's cultivation at all, the combat effectiveness of the Chu army on the opposite side is too strong. Shamans and monks are also human beings, and swords have no eyes, and in such a place, to be killed or injured at such a time, that kind of thing is not fun.

The attendants on the left and right immediately carried the dying Han women into the boiling pot and threw them into the boiling pot, and in the splash, these women's eyes kept looking to the north, where an army belonging to the ethnic group was charging. Soon, the eyes had turned dead white in the boiling water, and their bodies had stiffened.

Yang Lin commanded the three thousand cavalry to form a sharp array in the gallop, almost just finished accelerating, the cavalry of the first horse, the cavalry in his hand stabbed into the body of a ghost who was standing stupidly in fright, the cavalry pierced through this ghost, and with the inertia pierced the two more ghost barbarians, the cavalry only let go at this time, and then leaned his body on the neck of the war horse, and his hands were tightly wrapped around the horse's neck.

The second horse, the third horse, more and more cavalry crashed into the ranks of the ghosts, the horses neighed and screamed, the flesh and the flesh collided, and when the two armies came into contact, there was a burst of people on their backs.

The Yue Ghost didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional to put on the Glaive Array, and as the three thousand cavalry under Yang Lin rushed up, it immediately became even more concave. Some of the Yue ghosts who had never seen such a scene no longer had the anger in their heads because of the interruption of the prayer ceremony at this time, and some only saw the fear of one companion after another being knocked down, and then being trampled by countless horses' hooves and turned into flesh, and subconsciously turned around and wanted to escape.

When the cavalry collided with the Yue ghosts, Yang Chong's and Yang Yi's subordinates, who led the infantry from the left and right flanks, were still behind, and they could see the scene on the small low slope even if they didn't want to pay attention, which was a picture of Han women being thrown into the pot one after another.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill!"

"Lao Tzu wants to cut off the heads of these ghosts. ”

"Kill these ghosts to the point of cutting off their children and grandchildren!"

The queue that was originally trotting didn't need to be urged at all, they bit their lips, and the hands holding their weapons were bruised, and one by one they let out the most angry roar that might be in their lives, and they walked as fast as they could.

What does it mean for an angry army to burst out? Not only is it an indomitable momentum, but also a bloodthirsty hideousness, although it has slightly opened up the formation because of the acceleration, but who cares about this at this time, the only thought in their heads is to rush forward and kill any Yue ghost barbarians who can be seen, and the idea of avenging those Han women who have a tragic fate is extremely firm.

Yang Sui, who was standing on the city tower, saw that the formation of his troops was out of order, and his heart couldn't help but beat wildly, the behavior of the more ghosts and barbarians were infuriating the soldiers, so that those soldiers were aroused by hatred and lost their coolness, and he was very worried that the soldiers who were full of hatred would lose their advantage after messing up the formation. In any case, the power of the military array cannot be ignored. Even if it's out of anger, make sure the fight goes smoothly.

"Yang Ci!"

Thinking of this, Yang Sui needed to make some arrangements, he turned around and ordered Yang Cidao, who was standing behind him: "You gather your headquarters to go out of the city now, and be ready to support the vanguard troops in front at any time." ”

Yang Ci was stunned for a moment, then showed an ecstatic expression on his face, and replied loudly: "Subordinates obey orders!"

Just about to turn around and leave, Yang Sui suddenly poured a basin of cold water on the head of Yang Ci, who was full of ecstasy: "Yang Chong's vanguard was carried away by hatred, and they killed a little sexually, I don't want you to be like them, don't act rashly before you get my order, after receiving the order, no matter how unreasonable, you must resolutely carry it out!"

"This ......"

Yang Ci was stunned again, and then agreed again. When he walked down the city road, Yang Ci himself came back to his senses. It is true that all troops on the battlefield cannot fall into an inexplicable frenzy, and a calm army is needed to fill in the gaps for the robe, but in this case, Yang Ci himself is not very sure how much calm the soldiers in his headquarters will be.

Yang Lin's cavalry, which had already completed the first wave of charges, was making a detour towards the left flank of the battlefield. In a burst of killing, the three thousand war beast cavalry killed about twice the number of Yue Gui enemy troops, and also broke the front line of Yue Gui, causing the enemy army to fall into chaos. On the other hand, on his side, he did not suffer any losses.

In another world, before the saddle and stirrup, the cavalry relied entirely on the legs to clamp the horse's belly and grasp the reins to maintain balance on the horse's back, so the cavalry attack on the enemy seemed to be powerful and effective, but the cavalry's own casualties would indeed be somewhat large. Yang Tianhong obtained the Linglong Treasure Lock, which enabled the saddle and stirrups to qualify in advance in this world, and because of the massive elixirs he mastered, ordinary horses became war beasts. Of course, Yang Tianhong could completely replace the war beast with a more powerful desolate beast. It's just that now is not the time. If all the cavalry of the Xuanhuo Legion were riding desolate beasts, then it would inevitably attract the attention of countless people in the cultivation world.

Yang Tianhong would never want such an effect. He knew very well that before he controlled the world, the use of the Desolate Beast Cavalry could only be limited to a fairly narrow range. After all, even monks find the beast a terrifying species. Once thousands of desolate beast cavalry appear, as long as there are enough of them, they can completely level the entire Taiyi Palace.

Outside the city of Yuanxian, after Yang Lin ordered someone to blow a roundabout horn, the roundabout left flank was the small low slope where Ruan Chen Changguang was. However, they didn't want to kill Xiaoxiaopo, and they didn't know that the Yue Ghost general Ruan Chen Changguang was in that direction. It was just a detour by mistake, which had already frightened the Yue ghosts on the left wing in a panic, and even Ruan Chen Changguang hurriedly wanted to transfer.

In the case of a battle, the army needs someone to command, and an army without a command system can only fight on its own, Yang Lin did not realize how important his mistake was to Yang Chong and Yang Yi, who led the infantry in the follow-up. After Ruan Chen Changguang changed his position, he never issued an effective order, and the Yue Ghost, who was panicked by the cavalry, could only stay where he was and wait for Yang Chong and Yang Yi to lead the infantry to kill him without receiving an order.

A group of soldiers full of anger broke out with very strong combat effectiveness. As they approached the ghosts, they roared like the roar of a wounded beast, and their hideous and murderous faces were enough to frighten the faint-hearted.

rushed to the front, and was also the first soldier to run the fastest, stabbing the nearest Yue ghost to death with the weapon in his hand. After killing the first enemy soldier, this soldier directly hit it with his body, and when he couldn't draw his weapon, he threw himself at the second Yue Ghost, opened his big mouth and bit down on the carotid artery in his neck, and the blood sprayed out splashed the soldier's face, his hideous face and the fierceness he showed did not look like a normal person at all, so frightened that the surrounding Yue Ghost couldn't help but retreat for a while, and he didn't expect that as long as he surrounded a burst of sticks, he could kill the soldier.

More of the Xuanhuo Army's light armored infantry arrived, and the ferocity they displayed was no less than that of the first to rush up. The murderous aura shown by those red eyes and hideous faces can really scare the faint of heart, and the soul that was injured because of the sight of the Han woman being thrown into the pot, so that they fought without sparing their lives, this kind of tactics may be a bit chaotic, but the momentum shown is enough to diffuse. At this time, even if the enemy in front of them is a group of ghost shamans, the soldiers will rush forward regardless of the madness. What rules of heaven and earth, what immortal laws, in the face of anger and humiliation, are nothing at all.

As many as tens of thousands of lightly armored infantry of the Xuanhuo Army, the moment they came into contact with the Yue Ghost, soldiers on both sides of the battlefield continued to fall, and the fierce fighting style of the Xuanhuo Army with a vengeful mentality was not something that the Yue Ghost could block. Soon, the Yue Ghost side was caught in a situation of being pressed and beaten, and could only continue to retreat under the fierce offensive of the Xuanhuo Army. (To be continued.) )
