Chapter 89: The King of Gaoyang County still has a hand in fighting
Tan Yuan looked behind from time to time and found that Zhu Gaoxu's cavalry was getting farther and farther away, but stopped when he was two hundred steps behind the bridge, and then a personal soldier ran towards him.
Tan Yuan was very smart, and immediately guessed something: "Special mother, the king of Gaoyang County still has a hand in fighting." ”
Not to be outdone, he wanted to prove that he was also smart, and guessed Zhu Gaoxu's thoughts: "Get out of the way, get out of the way." ”
He was not bad, and after looking left and right, he immediately said: "Let the two wings out, King Gaoyang wants to rush the two wings." ”
At the same time that Tan Yuan ordered to give way to the passage.
Boom, countless horses' hooves rumbled, Zhu Gaoxu took the lead, and his thousand cavalry was like a torrent of steel, slowly accelerating, faster and faster.
A thousand cavalry rushed up, the scene was still very spectacular, although there were many recruits in the middle, but with Zhu Gaoxu, he was also trained every day, at least he still looked good on horseback.
Zhu Gaoxu usually leads recruits with training and actual combat, just like now, the veterans rush to the front, and the recruits follow behind.
"Kill me." Zhu Gaoxu did not hesitate this time, and rushed directly to the front.
As the head coach, when it is critical, you still have to take the lead.
"Protect Your Highness." Zhou Hu shouted, Zhao Qing, Sun Sheng and others ran in front of Zhu Gaoxu.
The fierce horse team rushed up to the Yueyang Bridge like a strong wind, and this Yueyang Bridge was about ten steps away, and three horses could be ridden together.
Zhu Gaoxu, Zhou Hu, and Zhao Qing rushed in the first row.
Don't look at him rushing very fiercely, but after all, he is not the previous Zhu Gaoxu, he is actually quite nervous in his heart, and he keeps thinking, don't shoot me, don't shoot me, don't shoot me.
He was afraid that some bow and arrow would suddenly shoot at him.
Before, Zhu Gaoxu felt that he could carry the top and was very domineering, but now that he thinks about it, sometimes he is too famous, and it is not a good thing, for example, he actually likes to be in the back of the yin people, instead of charging ahead.
The Yan army rushed across the bridge from two hundred paces away, and the speed became faster and faster, and the southern army on the opposite flank immediately began to panic, and the people on the side crowded in one after another, for fear of being knocked into the river.
But there are already a lot of intermediaries, and they are still fighting to the death with Tan Yuan's people.
In this way, the southern army became crowded, and the scene was suddenly a little chaotic.
Then he saw Zhou Hu's horse, and with a bang, rushed into the southern army on the left before Zhu Gaoxu.
Bang bang bang, the formation on the opposite side was thin, because everyone was squeezing in, there were few people outside, and they were directly hit by Zhou Hu and flew out.
Zhou Hu's horse slammed into the crowd, and Zhou Hu also flew up, plopped, flew out seven or eight steps, and then fell hard, just in a group of southern troops.
He was huge, and he was carrying a big axe, and after the person flew, he didn't shake the axe in his hand.
Then Zhao Qing and Sun Sheng both rushed in front of Zhu Gaoxu and bumped into him.
Why did Zhu Gaoxu's Maxima run so slowly, because he was so fast, of course he didn't want his Maxima to hit the infantry like this.
There were tens of thousands of infantry in front, and he didn't have a problem with his brain, so he wouldn't rush forward.
As soon as his speed dropped, there was a continuous stream behind him, and a large number of elite horses rushed up.
There was a rumbling sound everywhere at the scene, people turned on their backs, the Southern Army flew out, and the Yan Army also flew out.
Some flew into the river, and some horses flew into the river, and both sides suffered heavy losses.
Zhu Gaoxu realized afterwards that it took a lot of courage for the cavalry to charge the infantry.
Many people had a brain fever when they rushed at that time, and more than half of them would regret their impulsiveness after rushing.
From Zhu Gaoxu's point of view, the cavalry that crashed into the first wave suffered the greatest losses, almost all of them were wounded, and some were thrown from their horses alive to death.
But as long as the cavalry can rush in at the front, the rear will be much smoother.
The infantry ducked, screamed, and fled in all directions.
The arrows of the cavalry in front were like a devastation, piercing all the way.
At this time, Zhou Hu, Zhao Qing and Sun Sheng were all gone, trapped in the formation, and they didn't know if they were dead, and it was Wang Bin and Wei Da who rushed to the front, as well as Zhu Gaoxu himself.
Zhu Gaoxu held a horse lance, invincible, swept down with a lance, no one could stop him, and the infantry of the Southern Army shrank in as if they had seen a ghost.
Zhu Gaoxu watched while fighting, and reminded the surroundings from time to time: "Don't rush in, don't rush in, on the periphery." ”
The soldiers and generals around him are shouting: "Don't rush in, on the periphery." ”
The southern army's infantry formation inside is too dense, and rushing in is self-defeating, so they rush on the periphery, scattering some fragmentary southern troops, the key is to rush out of the momentum, shock the southern army, make the southern army frightened, and at the same time compress the southern army formation.
Because the middle of the southern army is too dense, some people are no longer able to use their hands and feet.
Zhu Gaoxu's soldiers and horses rushed in from both wings at the same time, Zhu Gaochu rushed fast on this side, and Chen Wen on the other side rushed slowly, but they also advanced in unison.
After a while, he rushed out of a long section and almost surrounded the southern army in the middle with cavalry.
The experienced cavalrymen had already begun to throw themselves inward, swishing, and arrows raining down into the middle of the southern army.
There were also arrows shooting out in the middle of the southern army, and both sides were fighting each other.
"Kill, kill these dogs." Tan Yuan saw that the southern army was rushed by the cavalry, and his morale was greatly reduced, and the periphery shrank inward, and he immediately roared wildly.
His subordinates struggled forward, and the southern army was a little unable to resist, because they originally confronted the Yan army head-on, but now there were cavalry of the Yan army on both flanks, and they became enemies on three sides.
Zhu Gaoxu's horse was leaning against the river at this time, and he didn't dare to press too close, he was watching the battle, and a few arrows suddenly flew over from the opposite side.
I'm grass, Zhu Gaoxu was frightened and quickly closed his eyes and bowed his head.
When, when, when, at least three arrows were shot at him, and one arrow was shot in the saddle, but luckily the shadow was not injured.
He was covered in armor, and the other party was far away, and two of them were inserted, but he could feel that it didn't hurt his body.
He looked up at the direction of the bow and arrows, and there was a general on the opposite side who was also looking at him, probably seeing that Zhu Gaoxu was a general, and deliberately asked someone to shoot him together.
Zhu Gaoxu was furious.
"Shoot the Southern archers." He pointed in one direction.
"Shoot the Southern archers." The soldiers were all around, shouting everywhere.
"Zheng." Someone shot an arrow at the southern archers in the distance, and then swished, and arrows were shot everywhere in the direction of the southern archers.
Now, no matter whether the archery is accurate or not, as long as you can pull up the bow and shoot it in, it is full of Southern troops, and you can shoot it with your eyes closed.
A lot of recruits are also shooting.
The opposite side immediately screamed everywhere, and countless southern troops fell to the ground with arrows.
Even Tan Yuan didn't expect that almost all of Zhu Gaoxu's soldiers and horses had bows, and like the Mongols, so many people could shoot arrows.
He suddenly felt that Zhu Gaoxu's practice of archery seemed to make some sense.
With such a dense formation on the battlefield, the Mongols need to be so accurate, as long as they can pull their bows, the blind can shoot people.
But the cavalry could not stop in place, and after this round of arrows was fired, Zhu Gaoxu immediately waved his hand, drove it, and continued to circle north.
His soldiers and horses followed him north.
There were also a small number of skilled elites, who rode and shot at the same time, and like the Mongol soldiers, the recruits carefully held their bows and ran steadily first.
At this time, Pan Zhong and Yang Song were in the middle of the Southern Army, and they fought very well at the beginning, they could be on a par with Tan Yuan, and even as long as it took a long time, they could defeat Tan Yuan, but they didn't expect Zhu Gaoxu's cavalry to rush, which greatly frustrated their morale.
At this time, the two of them already felt that the bridge could not be crossed, so if they wanted to return to Juzhou with the soldiers and horses, they should quickly retreat and bypass it from the northwest.
But now that it's called a retreat, it will definitely turn into a rout.
Yang Song immediately whispered: "You take your own soldiers and go, how much can you go?" ”
