Volume 3 Yellow Sand Manga Chapter 634 Head to head

In the past few days, the Qiang-Hu coalition army has also figured out the overall strength of this Su army.

After learning that the other party only had more than 30,000 people, the king of Qiang, Fang Dang, Wuzhi, and the king of Hu and Qu discussed directly starting a war with the Su army!

Their current strength is nearly three times that of the Su army, and with such a huge disparity in strength, there is no reason for them to let this Su army go.

Coupled with the heavy loss of morale and low morale of the hussar battalion before, in Fang Dang Wuzhi's view, this is an excellent time to wipe out the Su army.

Not only Fang Dang Wuzhi thought so, but even King Jiqu was the same.

So they didn't call for help in the first place.

Joke, the total number of people is only 30,000, they are three times the other party, and if they still ask for help, it is somewhat embarrassing.

And this was also expected by Huang Zhang, he gambled that the Qianghu coalition would not send people for help, so he dared to have a head-on collision with them here with confidence and boldness.

What Huang Zhang wants to do is to fight the entire northwest back to its former state, and only in this way can the northwest border of Su be stabilized.

And the key to this battle is in Tucheng.

Before the morale of the soldiers in the hussar battalion was fully recovered, Huang Zhang asked Shi Feng to take the three thousand dragon city cavalry into Tucheng to stabilize Tucheng first.

When Shi Feng and the others arrived in Tucheng, they found that there were still five or six thousand soldiers in Tucheng.

These five or six thousand soldiers were not from the hussar battalion, but the troops in the area of the Lanshan defense line that Song Zhi had transferred before.

Seeing Shi Feng and others, this group of people seemed to have found a savior.

Shi Feng didn't expect that in Tucheng, there were still people who held on.

Later, I learned that these people who held on were all soldiers who had to withdraw to Tucheng due to the rout when they stormed the north gate before.

Originally, Fangdang Wuzhi's Qiang army was ready to continue the attack, but fortunately, after hearing the news of the Suguo reinforcements, Fangdang Wuzhi stopped the attack just in case.

Later, the reason why Tucheng was not attacked was that he wanted Huang Zhang and others to take the initiative to enter Tucheng and surround Huang Zhang and others like they had besieged Song Zhi at the beginning.

However, Huang Zhang did not fall for the plan, but set up a large camp outside Tucheng and confronted the Qianghu coalition army.

With this coming and going, the status of Tucheng has become less important.

However, at this moment, the morale of this group of soldiers staying in Tucheng was extremely low, and they were almost on the verge of collapse, but the arrival of the Shifeng troops barely supported their desire to live.

If you want them to fight, I'm afraid you can't count on it.

Now this group of people is talking about the change of color, but there is no fighting spirit at all.

On the day of the battle between the two armies, the soldiers and horses of both sides began to spread out outside the Tucheng.

The discipline of the Qianghu coalition army is not strong, but it is better than the large number of people, and the black pressure is overwhelming, like a dark cloud covering the top, and the momentum is compelling.

On the side of the Su army, the formation is strict and the soldiers are concentric, although there is a gap in numbers, but the fighting spirit is high.

Especially the soldiers of the hussar battalion who had been surrounded by the Qiang-Hu coalition army before, there was fire in their eyes.

On the battlefield, all the emotions they had feared before disappeared in an instant.

All the soldiers put aside those miscellaneous thoughts, and at this moment there is only one belief in their minds, kill the other party!

And the source of their confidence is the high-spirited young man at the front of the military formation, the backer king who holds a sword in one hand and a command flag in the other!

The world is wonderful, a young man in his early twenties commands thousands of troops, but not only does everyone not have a sense of disobedience, on the contrary, they only feel a lot more settled in their hearts.

This is definitely not something that a stinky kid in his twenties can bring them, but the backer king has given it.

The more this contrast, the more everyone firmly believes that the backer is an extraordinary person.

In the distance, the leader of the Qianghu gave an order, and nearly 10,000 Qianghu cavalry began to attack the Su army, followed by the Qianghu cavalry, the Qianghu army, and the momentum was also not weak.

Looking at the Qianghu cavalry who rushed over, Huang Zhang was very calm and did not panic at all, and the generals beside him were like a mountain, not shaken for a moment.

All the generals understand that today's battle is a battle related to the survival of the entire northwest of the Su country, and they can only get vitality if they fight to the death and do not retreat.

Seeing that the Qianghu cavalry was still a thousand meters away from the main formation, Huang Zhang waved the command flag in his hand.

As soon as the flag moved, the drum suddenly sounded.

With the sound of the drums, the Su army's formation began to change, and the shield and spearmen on both sides began to press forward, while the soldiers in the middle began to retreat.

While retreating, a rain of arrows began to cover the Su army.

These cavalrymen were good at mounted archery, which was originally a means they used to strike their opponents.

Inflict the first round of damage on the enemy through a rain of arrows moving at high speed.

But it is a pity that the rain of arrows of these cavalry fell on the army of the Su army, like a drizzle, and it was useless.

The Su soldiers raised their large shields early in the morning and protected the top of their heads.

After the first round of arrow rain strikes by the Qianghu cavalry, the Su army also returned fire.

The cavalry had cavalry archery, but there were also archers on the side of the Su army.

The archers, who were hiding behind the shield array, saw that the cavalry had entered the firing range and began a round of projectiles.

As the rain of arrows fell, the Qianghu cavalry was immediately hit hard.

In the past, the Su army had never dared to fight the Qianghu army on a frontal battlefield, and the Su army had always been nested in the city, guarding the city wall and fighting positional battles.

After this cold and unprepared field battle, the Qiang-Hu coalition army realized that their field tactics were too backward.

Just these rounds of arrows rained down their cavalry.

And the harassment tactics that they used to be very handy in field warfare in the past also began to fail at this moment in front of the shield array of the Su army.

And the scariest thing doesn't stop there.

After being hit by a rain of arrows, the Qianghu cavalry knew that they had suffered losses in the first round of battles and were not opponents.

So, according to the usual practice, the Qianghu cavalry began to detour to both flanks, trying to take advantage of high mobility to carry out flank strikes on the Su army.

The idea was good, and the tactics were good, first to break the enemy's psychological line by charging head-on, giving a certain amount of pressure, and then to apply a rain of arrows on the front, and when the consumption was over, the charging cavalry units were scattered towards the flanks, revealing the heavy infantry following behind.

The heavy infantry rushed into battle, followed by the cavalry harassing and harvesting on the flanks, so that almost no unit could withstand such a battle!

But it's a pity that Huang Zhang seems to have guessed through the tactics of the Qianghu cavalry, so as early as the beginning, the two wings of the Su army began to extend outward, and at the same time the center retreated, beginning to give the Qianghu cavalry an illusion.

Due to the grand battlefield and limited field of vision, the Qianghu cavalry in the charge did not know the situation on the two wings, and when they spread out to the two wings, they found that they had fallen into the encirclement of the Su army.

The cavalry wanted to disperse to both flanks, but found that both flanks were full of Su troops waiting for them.

Now, the originally highly mobile cavalry has become a live target.

There were Su troops on the front and left and right, and there were heavy infantry rushing up in the rear, and they couldn't move at all.

There is no difference between cavalry and ordinary infantry that have lost their mobility.

And horses with limited mobility hindered the movement of the cavalry.

The Qianghu cavalry wanted to rush out, but in front of the Su army was a thick shield, and behind the shield was a sharp spear.

People are not afraid of death, but horses are afraid.

At the same time, the drums changed again, and the military formations on both flanks began to shrink.

Looking at this way, it is preparing to further compress the activity space of the Qianghu cavalry.

Looking at the Qianghu cavalry who were like sheep to be slaughtered, a smile appeared on the corner of Huang Zhang's mouth.

"General Jiang, thanks to your understanding of the tactics of the Qiang-Hu coalition army, otherwise, we will suffer a loss in this battle." Huang Zhang praised.

That's right, Huang Zhangke has never seen the fighting style of the Qiang-Hu coalition army, and the tactics against the Qiang-Hu coalition army were thought up by Jiang Cha.

Jiang Cha had fought many battles with the Qiang-Hu coalition army before, and he had long been familiar with the combat methods of the Qiang-Hu coalition army.

originally thought that the Qianghu coalition army would change it, but I didn't expect that they would eat all over the world with one trick and not change it at all.

It doesn't make sense, we have to teach them a lesson!

It's just that the price of this lesson seems to be a bit big.
