Chapter 1316: Arab Cavalry
"Kill..."
In the beginning, these Arab cavalry still hid their aura, trying not to let people from afar notice, but when their horses galloped to a certain speed, they no longer hid.
These people have a hideous expression on their faces, these people in front of them are like fat sheep, they all raised the scimitar in their hands, as long as they can kill these people, it means that they have won the first war with the Tang Dynasty, no matter what happens next, this is a moment of historical significance, and we are all people who create history.
In the mouths of the past merchants, they learned that the Tang Dynasty is an extremely powerful country, and those merchants also said that it is even stronger than their Arab Empire, so these people are not convinced, although there was a small failure yesterday, but these people did not take it to heart, but thought that it was the Tang Dynasty despicable and shameless sneak attack on them, today this is a frontal battlefield operation, saying that I don't know that today is also your sneak attack, but you never think you are despicable.
"Prepare for war."
Seeing the cavalry in the distance swarming over, a lot of dust was raised to the sky, General Li did not have anything to be afraid of, this itself is what we have prepared, and the soldiers under him are also able to fight well, people don't know how many battles have been fought in the entire Western Regions, although today's object is the Arab cavalry, but we don't believe that you have a copper head and an iron wall.
What's going on?
Kebdullah personally led these people to charge, but he found that the people of Datang did not panic, if it was replaced by other enemies, the frightened expression on his face at this moment was also the most satisfactory to them Arab cavalry.
But now the Datang soldiers calmly took out their weapons and protected the carriage behind them, and two teams of soldiers rushed out, the first team of soldiers knelt on the ground, and the second team of soldiers stood up straight, what kind of broken thing was it in their hands, why hadn't they seen it before?
Those cavalry?
This guy finally noticed the Gaochang cavalry in front, these Gaochang cavalry are wearing heavy armor, so he hasn't taken these people seriously, even if your war horses are better than ours, but we are as light as swallows, even if we can't beat you, it's no problem for us to escape.
But at this moment, these Gaochang cavalry didn't care, but they divided into two teams and scattered around, didn't they escape?
Let's ignore them for now, these cavalry themselves are not our target, our target is these infantry and scattered behind, the cavalry they are the weakest in the whole team, as long as we rush over, the scimitar will definitely be able to harvest their heads, let you know the power of our Arab Empire.
Li Chengyi was silently measuring that after these people rushed into the firing range of the wall of fire, these muskets would start attacking first, as for our ballistae now, if they were fired, they might scare these people away, and temporary placement was also a problem.
When the musketeers stood in a row, the people behind them were not idle, they cut the carriages into a circle, and when the musketeers were finished, they had to enter the circle at great speed.
"Shoot in a row."
With the order given by the captain who led the team, more than 200 muskets rang out with a bang.
Because they had just entered the firing range, there were not many people who fell, only sixty or seventy cavalry, and this kind of casualty was acceptable for the Arab cavalry, so they didn't take it seriously.
"Second platoon shooting."
By the time the men on their stomachs fired in the second row, there were already more than one hundred and fifty-six people who had fallen, three times more than just now, and the Arab soldiers were no longer able to calm down.
Before they could react, the original platoon had already been loaded, and they had another round of shooting.
More than 200 people fell......
The men didn't even reload their bullets after the fight, but ran towards the circular carriage formation behind them at great speed.
The remaining platoon of soldiers also fired their last shots.
The Arab army was a little dumbfounded, in the process of our charge, we were killed by nearly 900 people, which is already a fifth of them, and we have never fought such a battle.
When the platoon of soldiers dispersed, they could see clearly what was going on in front of them, it turned out that all the carriages were connected end to end, and there were various boxes loaded on them, as if they were a circular defensive formation.
Bang bang bang......
Another round of gunfire came out, and more than a hundred people fell again, and many others were trampled to death by the cavalry behind.
That's impossible......
Kebdullah did not want to believe all this, but he did not believe the facts before him, and they were killed by more than 1,200 people on the way to the charge.
It was almost a third of the way, and looking back from his position, the ground was littered with the corpses of their brothers, and the battlefield was full of running horses, and some of them had been hit and fell to the ground and fluttered slowly.
But it doesn't matter, we're going to rush in soon, and if we let us do, you people will have no way to survive.
"Shoot the arrows..."
When the order was given, a large number of arrows flew out.
Now it has rushed to a position of sixty meters, which is also the maximum range of the chain crossbow.
Crackling, another bunch of people fell.
According to the idea of the Arab cavalry, the next time you bend your bows and arrows, we will already rush in, and then we will not wait for you to kill us, but we will use scimitars to harvest your heads and cut off all your heads.
Unfortunately, what they expected did not happen, but more arrows came at them.
How is this possible, now they can already see the faces of the Tang soldiers, and they have not seen them bending their bows and arrows at all, but what is the matter with these things that are shot?
Many soldiers howled and screamed, and they did not dare to continue the charge, as if the circle in front of them was the gate of hell.
"What's that?"
Some people looked at the chain in the soldier's hand with fear, and every time the crossbow thing fluctuated, an arrow came at it.
The Arab cavalry had nothing on their bodies except clothes, so to speak, they had no defense at all, they were slaughtered in such a state, the war was fought like this, don't think about victory, think about how to run.
