Chapter 225: China Will Win (5)

As soon as Valerian recovered from his roar, he saw a black war horse, tall and majestic, half a horse's head taller than the Hot Wheels, and covered with a layer of red-trimmed soft armor that covered the horse's knees. Zeng Hua turned over and got off the Hot Wheels, and soon stepped onto the black ironclad war horse.

As soon as Zeng Hua sat down, the guards standing next to him were busy, some of them were tightening the belts on their vests and planting two flaming red flags behind the horses' hips; Some handed Zeng Hua plate armor and hung a long knife on the side of his saddle. Zeng Hua put on the plate armor and took the red cloth robe handed over by a guard, and then wrapped it on his body from his head, the fiery red coat flew on the steel armor, like a raging fire, and Deng Yao and Zhang Yao around him also put on red robes with the exploration army, only to see that the Chinese army turned into a fiery sea.

Valeryan was taken aback, was the general going to go to the battlefield himself? And to charge? I couldn't help but shout loudly: "Honorable general, do you really want to go to the battlefield in person?" ”

After listening to the translator's words, Zeng Hua turned his head and smiled at Valerian: "If a general wants to enjoy the honor of victory together, he must fight bloody battles with his soldiers!" ”

Valerian's mouth opened after listening to the translated words, but he couldn't speak, but respectfully gave Zeng Hua a Roman military salute with his fists on his horse. Zeng Hua seemed to recognize Valerian's military salute, and smiled and touched the hilt of the saber he had just received in his right hand on his forehead.

Zeng Hua hung the sword on his left waist, and this sword may not play a role in the fight. But he was a knight's honor, and his last weapon, either in the chest of his enemies or in his own heart.

Zeng Hua finished all this, raised his head and looked at the sun in the distance that had begun to tilt westward, time and the whole world seemed to freeze at this moment, and the tragic battlefield not far away seemed to float away to another world. Zeng Hua's eyes and ears became incomparably clear and quiet. Looking at the white clouds fluttering in the sky, Zeng Hua seemed to feel the traces of the strong wind blowing, in the clear blue sky. Zeng Hua seemed to feel a force, and this power seemed to have traveled through time and space, perhaps from the rain of arrows from the crossbow of the Qiang Qin Land; Maybe it came from the declaration that the Han Dynasty would be punished even if it was far away; Maybe it came from the sad song of the end of the Han Dynasty like a chicken, cutting and recalling; Or from the midstream hits of decades ago.

Then. The neighing sound of Hot Wheels woke Zeng Hua, only to see Hot Wheels pacing to his side, reluctantly touching his hand with his horse nose. Zeng Hua turned his head and touched the head of the Hot Wheels horse with his left hand: "Old partner." You're too old to adapt to the impact of heavy armor. ”

Hot Wheels seemed to hear Zeng Huadi's words, and couldn't help but take a few steps back and raise their front hooves. He let out a long hiss. In the neighing of horses, he suddenly heard Zeng Hua raise his head and sing loudly: "The vast world, the majestic Shenzhou." Billowing dust. Yo my house! Lang Lang Qiankun. Men are hot-blooded. The sky is vast. Bless me Huaxia! ”

As soon as he heard half of the sentence, everyone around him couldn't help but sing in unison. For a while, the singing was like a tide, and the wind was surging.

The impassioned singing spread like the wind throughout the battlefield, and it brought an incomparably strong impetus to all the Beifu soldiers, who sang in unison with tears in their eyes, and at the same time attacked more courageously.

As soon as the singing ended, Zeng Hua put on a helmet covering his face, then raised his gun in his hand and shouted: "The Holy Lord is above, bless me Huaxia!" After speaking, in the loud echo of the sergeants, they rode forward, and the big Ding banner followed closely behind. Deng Yao and Zhang ran in front of Zeng Hua unhurriedly, followed by countless fiery figures, slowly moving forward.

The Beifu military array sent out a burst of "huh-huh-huh" sounds, and they saluted their landlords and their most elite exploration troops. They divided an avenue and let the 4,000 exploration army grow and slowly drive through the formation in a vertical formation, and rush directly to the opposite Persian army, followed by 6,000 white-armored cavalry, they are the elite cavalry of the box army, as the follow-up force of the exploration army.

The entire Beifu military array moved with the Dading Banner, and all the sergeants who were slowly advancing and had not yet joined the battle excitedly raised their swords, guns, crossbows and bows in their hands, cheered loudly, and then made all preparations, ready to follow the general and the exploration army to rush to the enemy and rush to victory. And those sergeants who are fighting are even more ferocious, they know that the general will soon fight side by side with them, and they will march forward with their blood, and for them now, death has become a kind of glory.

Looking at Zeng Hua in the distance, and the detectives surrounding him, Valerian felt that it was a dragon on fire, rushing towards their poor enemy. At that moment, Valerian felt that in front of these fiery red cavalry, no fortress or army formation could stop their attack. At this moment, Valerian believed that Zeng Hua and their soldiers were like a raging fire, turning the place they passed into a sea of fire, and all the people and things that stood in their way would be reduced to ashes in the raging fire.

When Zeng Hua led the exploration army to charge straight into the Persian army, Meng Shouzheng's forward battalion had already started a tragic encounter with the Persian heavy cavalry.

When Meng Shouzheng and the others were killing the spearmen in the middle of the Persian army, they suddenly saw that the Persian army in front of them suddenly became chaotic, and they dodged to both sides, as if some fierce beast rushed from behind them. Meng Shouzheng's face changed, and he immediately shouted at the team of sword players who were cooperating with them behind him: "Listen! ”

One of the sword players immediately dropped his shield, fell to the ground and listened, and after a few breaths he jumped up and shouted: "It's a heavy cavalry, it's a heavy cavalry!" "The hooves of the heavy cavalry and the light cavalry are completely different, and experienced Beifu sergeants can naturally distinguish them.

Meng Shouzheng was anxious all of a sudden, and shouted: "Report immediately, adjust the crossbowman." Stormtroopers get ready! The enemy's heavy cavalry is coming! ”

In this situation, the light cavalry of the Persian army is not useful at all, after all, it has been killed into a pot of porridge, and the light cavalry rushed in, naturally it could not be used, and it was still stewed into a pot of porridge, as long as the cavalry lost speed, it was not a target for the charger. Now the most feared are the heavy cavalry, these Persian cavalry with extremely strong impact once they have no distinction between enemy and enemy, they will directly rush over. The stormtroopers who are fighting in the form of skirmishers will definitely suffer a big loss.

Hearing Meng Shouzheng's shouting, the stormtroopers immediately changed their tactics and moved closer to the battalion flag, forming a slightly denser formation. The stormtrooper, who was already standing in the middle of the line, first set up the saber by his side, then took off his helmet, then pulled out a dagger from his waist, and slashed it to the left flank, cutting all the tightly tied cow belts, which were still tight just now

It is divided into two petals. The charger shook, and the plate fell to the ground. The right side of the willow leaf armor is cut in the gap. Cut off a row of cowhide belts there, and then reached out to the outside of the right leg to cut the cowhide belts there, and the whole willow leaf and even the armor were loosened. The charger slanted his shoulders. With a pull of his hand, the entire iron armor fell to the ground with a thud.

In just a dozen breaths, the Stormtrooper had stripped off all his heavy armor, leaving only the close-fitting cotton chain armor. They withdrew the dagger. Then he held the horse chopping knife in his hand and looked ahead. At this time, the heavy armor of the Stormtrooper Ground Infantry was completely ineffective against the heavy cavalry, and the high-speed cavalry could easily pierce through the armor. And wearing these heavy armor, he couldn't dodge the impact of the heavy armored cavalry. Once they were overrun by the cavalry, they could only watch being trampled to death. So it's better to just wear a light cotton chain. There is a certain amount of protection. You can also use your flexible body shape and long-handled saber to fight to the death with the enemy's heavy armored cavalry.

The Persian spearmen in front of him watched the killing gods just now transform one by one. He took off his blood-spattered heavy armor and stood in front of him with a new look. Although the Beifu Charger took off the "turtle shell" that gave the pikemen a headache. But no Persian pikemen had just stepped forward to rejoin the battle, for the stormtroopers held sabers with swords on the ground, though bloodstained, but still sharp.

Suddenly, the Persian spearmen saw thousands of Divine Arm Crossbowmen running up, directly on the side of the Charger, and more Divine Arm Crossbowmen were rushing behind them. Seeing this, the spearmen of the Persian army couldn't help but shudder, they didn't know the power of these crossbowmen, and many of their companions lying on the ground around them had eaten their arrows and fell to the ground.

While they were thinking wildly, there was a lot of movement behind them, and there were the undulating screams of each other, screams, and then the sound of rumbling horses' hooves. The Persian pikemen panicked and desperately dodged in either direction, but the chains on their feet and the corpses of their companions on the ground made it difficult for them to move.

After dozens of spearmen were knocked into the air in the distance, a group of ironclad cavalry rushed at high speed, with terrifying masks on their faces, and in front of them was a cavalry spear more than three meters long, the blue tip of the spear swaying in the run, but it kept pointing ahead.

"Shoot!" The Beifu army was not polite at all, and the officers of the crossbow battalion immediately ordered, and the crossbowmen who had been prepared for a long time immediately pulled the crossbow machine, and the black iron arrows flew out with a roar, and rushed straight at the ironclad cavalry, only to see that the iron arrows all over the body passed through the body of the heavy armored cavalry who were running at high speed very easily. The powerful crossbow machine, the hard tip and body of the arrow, and the high speed of the two hedges, made the thick iron armor on the Persian heavy cavalry like tissue paper. The cavalryman, who had suddenly been hit hard, was stunned, and then the lost cavalry lance fell to the ground in one fell swoop.

The current Divine Arm Crossbowmen use segmented fire. All the crossbowmen were divided into three teams, the third team opened the crossbow at the back, then walked forward three steps to become the second team, and began to load the arrows, and after the preparation, they took three steps forward to become the first team, aiming at the Persian ironclad cavalry rushing in front of them was an arrow. This cycle continued, and soon a continuous network of fire was formed in front of the battle, enveloping the rushing Persian heavy cavalry in the net.

The Persian heavy cavalry did not stop, and there was no way to stop. Braving a seemingly endless stream of iron arrows, they continued to rush forward, and their companions kept falling off their horses, and more and more of them. These dead companions also caused a lot of trouble for the later cavalry. The wounded companions struggled on the ground, trying to get up, but the heavy armor became a large stone on their bodies at this time, crushing them to death, making it impossible for them to turn over. And their majestic figures also became a huge obstacle, so that the latecomers who could not dodge were tripped and fell at once, and with a bang, even people and horses rolled on the ground. Such a high speed, coupled with such a heavy weight, made those war horses miserable, some of them didn't even have time to scream, they were broken their necks and whimpered, and the cavalry who were smashed to pieces was not much better, some were crushed to death by their own war horses, and some were trampled to death by the war horses behind.

The surging Persian ironclad cavalry rushed straight at like a torrent. But they fell to the ground like a waterfall, just like a bottomless pit was opened dozens of meters in front of the crossbowman, and no matter how turbulent the torrent was, it was also sucked in.

On the other side, the few ironclad cavalry were "lucky" to rush to the charger's side, but their hard-wielding rifles could not pierce the jumping charger, so they had to gallop past them and run to another target. But the stormtroopers gave way to the Persian heavy cavalry, but their sabers did not give way to the cavalry. The sharp blade started at the horse's neck and sliced all the way down the cavalry ground. Not only did it cut through the horse's armor, leaving a deep knife wound, but it also cut off the left leg of the cavalryman. The cavalry rolled to the ground with their horses in a terrible scream, but could not stand up again.

And that's not all. A chargeman armed with a larger version of the saber terrified the Persian heavy cavalry. I saw him dodge the Persian heavy cavalry, and then slashed hard from the side, and even the men and horses were split in two, and fell from the air to the ground like a pile of dead flesh with a thud.

However, the Persian ironclad cavalry also gained some gains. Meng Shouzheng saw with his own eyes a comrade-in-arms not far in front. Accidentally stabbed by a riding spear rushing from the side, he was rushed several meters away by a riding spear that pierced through the ground before he could make a sound, and then fell to the ground motionless. Looking at the corpses of his comrades, looking at the particularly glaring red tip of the spear. Meng Shouzheng's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he roared, and he lost his riding spear with one sword. The Persian cavalry, drawing their swords, slashed to the ground.

Just when the Persian ironclad cavalry and the Northern Stormtroopers were in a bloody battle. The exploration army led by Zeng Hua had approached their middle flank. The probing army was red. Coupled with the fluttering red flag behind him, it is really like a fire in the prairie fire. The first place is not Zeng Hua. Rather, it is hundreds of death squads, whose mission is to break through a gap with their bodies and lives. The left exploration will be a little ahead of Deng Yao, and the rhythm of the whole team is being controlled, and the right exploration will Zhang Qi run tightly in front of Zeng Hua.

The scouts ran across the avenue that their men had left and rushed straight into the ranks of the Persian army. The death squads were incomparably sharper blades, and they quickly carved a bloody path through the Persian army. The huge charging force, such as Lin's cavalry spears, swinging sabers, and flying arrows, soon made the already defeated Persian army even more chaotic, so that the exploration army quickly smashed into the Persian heavy cavalry

Wing.

It was as if two carriages traveling at high speed suddenly collided together, and the huge sound made people stunned. However, because the Beifu exploration army was directly attacking the flank of the Persian heavy armored cavalry, it took a lot of advantage. Moreover, the Beifu exploration army is much more skilled than the Persian army in coordination, and the tactics are much more complicated than the Persian army's simple impact.

There are long cavalry guns in front to open the way, and sabers and hammers in the back to protect the flanks; The close enemy has a saber to greet him, the enemy not far away has a short horse spear, and the distant enemy has a strong bow and a sharp shot. They were literally like a fire, turning the place they passed into a bright red sea of fire and blood.

Like a heavy hammer, the expedition effortlessly crushed the onslaught of the Persian heavy cavalry in a short period of time, and cut the team in two. Zeng Hua led the exploration army without stopping, but continued to rush forward, and the rhythm was interrupted, and the remnants of the Persian heavy armored cavalry, which had become a swarm of headless flies, were handed over to the forward battalion and the white armored cavalry. They flanked on both sides, using swords and arrows to gradually wipe out the heavy cavalry, which had lost their impact.

And on the main front of the other two armies, the Beifu Army, which had been fighting slowly and steadily just now, was like crazy, desperately attacking the front line, no matter how many casualties, there was only one movement, forward, forward, because the big Ding flag was fluttering in the enemy's hinterland. The Persian army did not know what was wrong with the enemy on the opposite side, and they could not face the Beifu army's frenzied attack as if they were dead.

The ferocious offensive and courageous momentum of the Beifu army soon crushed the last bit of courage of many people in the Persian army, the first was the center of the two assaults of the forward battalion and the exploration army, they saw that the previously invincible Persian ironclad cavalry was not left under the combined strangulation of the Beifu cavalry and infantry, and immediately broke their hearts and galls, turned around and ran back, even those pikemen who were tied to their ankles pulled out their hidden short knives and cut off the feet of their comrades who fell to the ground, and even some pikemen who had not had time to escape were cut off by their companions. Throw there and howl.

Once fear triumphs over reason, all that's left is the madness of survival.

The Persian cavalry retreated as the stormtroopers began to assault the recalcitrant Persian ranks, wielding their sabers, slashing down the Persian sergeants with a roar, and then slashing their heads from their waists. After a while, the Persian soldier saw a group of people covered in black and red blood, wearing no helmets, no armor, holding large swords, and their faces were hideous, like the Grim Reaper. What terrified the Persian army the most was the human heads hanging from their waists, and the heads of those who were no longer visible, shaking as the Beifu people moved, knocked these stubborn Persians down at the end. The rest is a rout.

The rout began on the center flank and quickly spread to the left and right flanks, but it was the Tocharian coalition on the right flank that was the first to flee on the right flank. They were already trembling in front of the Scythian cavalry sword-folding array. Seeing that even the Persian army could not resist it, he immediately began to retreat on all fronts.

With the defeat of the Persian army on all fronts, the 40,000 black-armored cavalry who had been waiting for a long time, led by Tuoba Shiyijian and Murong Chui, roared past their own military formation and chased after the Persian army.

"Odoria, we failed." Bethchi muttered to Odoria that he knew the outcome when he learned of the annihilation of Xerchersis and the 10,000 ironclad cavalry, but he did not expect his army to rout so quickly. It's no wonder that he didn't go to the front line in person, so he naturally didn't know how much pressure the Beifu army put on the Persian army, and once it collapsed, it would be like bursting the embankment.

"Yes, my Highness, we have failed." Odoria remained so peaceful, as if the battle and the victory and defeat had nothing to do with him, "whether it was victory or defeat, it was just another beginning." ”

Bezchi's eyes lit up, but soon dimmed again, and he looked at Odoria speechlessly, and finally waved weakly and said, "Let's go." ”

"My Highness," continued Odoria, riding his horse with the Bishs, "wherever we go, we must have the mercy of the people of the North to live. ”

"Odoria, why is that?" Startled, he turned his head and asked.

"The first thing that shocked us was their heroic and extremely large number of black-armored cavalry, but by now, my highness, how many black-armored cavalry have you seen them dispatch?" Odoria said calmly.

"Ahh Biscus finally understood, he thought for a while, and finally muttered, "Then wait until they catch up." Then he continued to run.

Watching the Persian army withdraw like a tidal wave, leaving only corpses, wounded soldiers and weapons all over the ground, the broken banners were like the courage of the Persian army, planted diagonally there, tattered. The yellow earth and countless blood were trampled into a black mud by the hooves of hundreds of thousands of horses.

Zeng Hua took off his heavy helmet, and felt that his vision suddenly became wider, and he seemed to be able to see the whole world clearly, he exhaled deeply, and slowly felt the tranquility restored on the battlefield, but the sky was no longer so blue, because the black smoke rising from the sky filled the air, and even the sun became a little dim.

Victory, Zeng Hua felt a sense of relief in his heart, we finally won, in the first battle with the Persian army, look at this battlefield, the Persian army and the Tocharian coalition army are estimated to have left sixty or seventy thousand corpses, and the rest of the people don't have to worry about it, if they can escape the pursuit of 40,000 black-armored cavalry, why not leave him alive?

Although Zeng Hua felt that after the tragic war, he still left a kind of heaviness for himself, but this heaviness was completely different from the heaviness after the previous war in China, which made people feel tightness in the chest and made people sad and angry. Today, Zeng Hua feels this heaviness more about the world and life.

Zeng Hua turned his head and looked at his subordinates behind him, who were standing there, silently looking at the battlefield and watching their own victory. They still can't seem to believe that this is their victory, they still lack something, Zeng Hua thought with a touch of heart. He suddenly raised the steel knife in his hand and shouted loudly: "Huaxia will win!" ”

This sentence was like a fuse, and it immediately ignited more than 200,000 Beifu troops, they shed tears, raised the weapons in their hands, and raised their heads and shouted: "Huaxia will win!" ”
