At the same time, Lü Meng, who was on the right flank, also received the report of the sentry cavalry and the military order of the herald sent by Qin Feng, under his order, a thousand cavalry were divided into ten columns in the same formation to prepare for the battle, and there were also a large number of soldiers behind him who were digging small pits with weapons, and the infantry collectively turned to swing down the spear array.
Far away, the Flame Army sergeants heard the rumbling sound of horses' hooves, like thunder in the sky, and the ground trembled more and more intensely, and the horses under the Flame Army cavalry began to become agitated and excited, and kept digging the ground with their hooves.
"Law-" Qin Feng and the cavalry soldiers stroked the mane of the war horses, calming their anxiety and excitement, it is too early to get excited, it is necessary to restrain it, only restraint can retain physical strength.
Here it comes!
A black line appeared on the horizon dividing the sky and the earth into two parts, and then a tall flag fluttered.
Qin Feng raised his hand and waved it forward, Since he saw the enemy army, he had to move to take it, and he couldn't let the enemy stop and rest.
A thousand cavalry soldiers followed Qin Feng and slowly moved forward, the war horses were still walking slowly at first, but with the passage of time and the urging of their masters, they had to speed up their pace.
From slow walking to fast walking, from fast walking to trotting, from trotting to speeding running, the flag of the Flame Army had begun to fly behind Qin Feng, and the sound of horses' hooves drowned out all sounds.
Cao Chun, who was leading the trotting horse, saw the oncoming cavalry in the distance, and he couldn't help but sigh, although he carefully avoided the patrol of the Flame Army Sentinel Cavalry, he was still discovered in advance.
But at this time, he didn't look back, fortunately, the number of cavalry on the other side seems to be small, and they are all light cavalry, and what he commands is the heavy armored iron cavalry known as the tiger and leopard cavalry, with 2,000 heavy armored iron cavalry to fight a thousand light cavalry, no matter what, he is not afraid, and even when he gallops on his horse, he is getting more and more excited, he even saw this thousand light cavalry being killed under the charge of his 2,000 heavy armored iron cavalry, leaving only a large number of corpses trampled into bloody flesh.
"Kill—" Cao Chun picked up the big gun from the victory hook and roared, pointing forward.
"Kill—" The two thousand cavalry behind him shouted in unison, and they all urged their horses to speed up, and one by one took out two short spears from behind them.
Qin Feng, who was leading the team to rush over, observed the distance between the two sides and their respective running speeds while galloping, and saw that the time had come, so he immediately shouted: "Points-riding and shooting!" ”
The flag bearer behind him immediately shook the flag three times in a row, and when the soldiers saw the flag, they immediately divided into two, with five columns of cavalry on the left and five columns of cavalry on the right to circulate to the right.
"Whoosh······ Whoosh ······" Wave after wave of arrows kept shooting at the tiger and leopard riding in front of them.
"Ahh
"Throw—" Cao Chun roared, and the spear pointed forward.
The tiger and leopard cavalry threw short spears in front of them, and these short spears flew out and were about to land on the heads of the Flame Army cavalry, but the Flame Army cavalry had already completed the column, leaving an open space, and all the short spears thrown by the tiger and leopard cavalry fell in the clearing.
After a second round of throws, the spears also landed in the clearing, just in time to be dodged by the Flame Troopers.
It was like a punch on cotton, this feeling made Cao Chun so depressed that he almost vomited blood, these two consecutive waves of attacks did not cause damage to the Flame Army, and the Flame Army's non-stop arrow strikes were constantly causing casualties to the Tiger and Leopard Rider.
Although the tigers and leopards were all armoured, and most of the arrows fired by the Flame Army cavalry were blocked by the armor, there were always some people who were unlucky enough to be shot at the junction of the armor, and the Cao cavalry who fell down also caused casualties to their comrades.
After the 1,000 Flame Army bypassed, they did not give up the attack, but kept firing arrows from both wings to cause casualties to the tiger and leopard cavalry of the Cao army.
Gu Xu
thought that the front was suddenly enlightened, but Cao Jun found that there was a dense infantry phalanx in front of him.
This made Cao Chun excited, behind this infantry phalanx was the flank of Liu Bei's army, as long as he rushed through this infantry phalanx, Liu Bei would be finished.
Iron cavalry charges, infantry - look for death!
"Rush-" Cao Chun roared, and so did the cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
No one knows the advantages and disadvantages of this iron cavalry better than Cao Chun, the disadvantage is that it is too heavy to run long distances, and it is too difficult to turn because the weight is too heavy.
"Kill-" All the knights of the tiger and leopard riders were shouting, and the dozen or so rows in front of them set up their spears and prepared to charge into battle, while the tiger and leopard riders in the back drew their swords one by one and prepared to swing their swords and slash after the comrades in front of them had rushed into battle.
With such a combination, no one can stop it.
Suddenly, the tigers and leopards in the front row fell forward within a breath, and even Cao Chun almost caught his way, if it weren't for his quick eyes, he was afraid that his mount would also be tripped by this suddenly tense tripping rope.
A large number of war horses screamed, one row, two rows, three rows, the front three rows without exception, except for Cao Chun's strong martial arts and riding skills, the other tiger and leopard cavalry all fell down, most of the war horses were thrown and could not get up again, many tiger and leopard cavalry were thrown down, some directly broke their necks and died, some broke their legs, and some could still get up, but the tiger and leopard riders who rushed over instantly trampled them into flesh.
Three tripping ropes in a row caused the tiger and leopard cavalry to lose thirty percent of their strength, and the speed of the sprint was also weakened by a small half, but the remaining seventy percent of the tiger and leopard cavalry continued to charge, because Cao Chun did not stop in front of him, and the flag was still flying, so they had to follow Cao Chun to continue to rush.
Qin Feng quickly completed the U-turn with a thousand flame troops on his side, and chased after the tiger and leopard.
"Kill—"
"Kill—"
The cavalry of the Flame Army roared, and the first few rows kept firing arrows at the last few groups of tiger and leopard cavalry, and from time to time the tiger and leopard cavalry were shot off their horses.
After three tripping ropes, Cao Chun thought that he could directly rush into the infantry phalanx in front, but he didn't know that the large open space in front of this infantry phalanx was full of horse pits, and his mount broke the horse's hooves because a horse's hoof stepped into the horse trap and fell down.
This large area of trapped horse pit has become another nightmare for tiger and leopard riding, a large number of tiger and leopard riding war horses have been abolished here, and on the way to charge, there are constantly war horses planted down, and some knights are thrown off their horses.
The trap caused the tiger and leopard riders to lose another two percent, and the only half of the tiger and leopard riders finally rushed to the front of the spear formation, but their formation was completely disorganized, and their sprint speed was reduced by half.
"Poof—"
"Poof—"
"Click-"
"Click-"
From time to time, the sound of a war horse being pierced by a spear and the sound of a spear being broken sounded, and countless screams were heard in all directions.
