253 [Jin Ge Iron Horse]
The Flying Feather Battalion was expanded to 8,000 horsemen last year, but at the moment, only 6,000 people appeared on the Razor Plain with Li Bingxue.
One is because they have suffered losses in the battle on Moyang Road recently, and the other is that Li Bingxue left more than 1,000 people as scout rangers of the Jingzhou Army to provide Li Tianrun with more accurate battlefield information.
Under the command of Li Tianrun, the Jingzhou army first advanced to Yanwu City on the Western Front with a thunderous momentum, and then broke through the flank defense line of Shiquan City on the Eastern Front with a false shot.
The Feiyu battalion had a short stay outside Xinchang City, and under the watchful eyes of the Yan army stationed in Xinchang City, they openly received supplies from the soldiers of the Panlong Army.
But I don't know what kind of mood Li Yingcheng, the chief general of the Yan Army, and his subordinate generals were at that time.
They naturally recognized the banner of the Feiyu Battalion, and they also knew what it meant for this cavalry built by the Jingzhou Governor's Office to appear outside the city, but even if Li Yingcheng dared to send someone out of the city to report, it would be impossible for him to outrun this elite cavalry that crisscrossed the north of the Yangtze River.
From Xinchang City to Pingli City, the Feiyu Battalion had undergone a second rest and replenishment, so when they rushed to the Leize Plain, which was more than fifty miles away, they were at the peak of their physical strength and fighting spirit.
Previously, Lu Shen had a fierce battle with the cavalry of the Ruishi battalion and the 2,000 cavalry of the Jing army, which ended in the rout of the Jing cavalry caused by his own killing of Yawuta.
At present, two more cavalry armies are about to collide, the strength of the army has more than doubled, the battle line is extremely long, and the tactical literacy of the soldiers on both sides is more demanding.
If the battle between the foot soldiers of the two armies is like a group of strong men with big shoulders and round waists wrestling with each other, then the collision of cavalry is a terrifying beast tide on the vast wasteland.
In general, cavalry commanders will try to avoid this kind of straightforward hedging, as there are too many unpredictable situations, such as the mount being timid or the formation being scattered and unable to regroup.
From ancient times to the present, as a mobile force on the battlefield, the most important duty of light cavalry is to intrude into enemy formations and look for opportunities to kill with one blow.
However, there was no extra choice in Balihai, the Jing army was already in a high-speed attack, and the Southern Qi cavalry was diagonally inserted from the side front, if he chose to avoid the battle, the only consequence would be to be cut off by the opponent, and then cause the whole line to collapse.
Therefore, he could only ask his cavalry to slightly adjust the direction of the sprint and confront the Flying Feather Battalion head-on.
The two armies collided, and in an instant, the waves crashed on the shore, rolling up thousands of piles of snow.
Soldier against soldier, general against general, kill into a group.
Although the appearance of the Feiyu Battalion was completely unexpected by Qing Yu Huaijin and Balihai, this Jing army cavalry had no fear on their faces, and the morale and military discipline on both sides were relatively close, so while interspersed and staggered, almost everyone was stabbing the enemies around them.
The cavalry's most handy melee weapons are, of course, spears and sabers, and as for the lance, which is an extremely terrifying blade, ordinary people do not have the ability to control it, and only the real masters in their respective formations will use it.
Li Bingxue is one of them, and the silver saddle and white horse under her are even more eye-catching, and the banner behind her has become the guide of the soldiers of the Flying Feather Battalion.
Before the two armies came into contact, Li Bingxue noticed the figure of the other party's main general, and she and Lu Shen maintained an amazing agreement on this point.
The most direct way to destroy the morale of an army is to kill the opponent's commander.
This is the only way to fight all white-knuckle warfare in this day and age.
The horse's hooves flew and swooped in.
Li Bingxue was surrounded by skilled soldiers, who firmly guarded the side of the main general, creating an opportunity for Li Bingxue to face the enemy general.
Her eyes were locked on Balihai, and when she was only four or five feet away from the other party, she held the horse lance that had killed countless enemies with both hands.
The wind blew through her sideburns, and there was not a trace of hesitation on her face, only the determination and courage to live to die.
Balihai was born in the nobility of the Jing Dynasty, and at the age of thirteen or fourteen, he joined the command of Qing Yugong, and spent his days polishing his martial arts in the army.
Although he is not the kind of gifted genius, he has the diligence and hard work that are not common in the Jinglian people, and he tempers himself almost day after day, so he is appreciated by Qing Yugong and Mou Lianghu, and grows into a cavalryman step by step.
The weapon he used was a spear, which was slightly inferior in length to the lance of a horse with strong ice and snow, but in the current situation of close fighting, there was no obvious flaw in that weakness.
When the two horses approached, Li Bingxue waved the horse lance and smashed down angrily with the faint sound of wind and thunder.
The Bali Sea sank into the dantian and raised the gun to block horizontally.
A majestic force from the body of the spear to his hands, Balihai's complexion changed suddenly, although he had heard of the name of the Feiyu Battalion, and also knew that the commander of this Southern Qi cavalry would be the pearl of the palm of Li Tianrun, the governor of Jingzhou, but he did not expect that the young woman opposite had such terrifying strength.
It is better to be famous than to meet, and most of the time people in the world only believe in their own eyes.
Just like Li Bingxue wanted to capture the thief and capture the king first, Balihai did not have the idea of stabbing her in his heart, so he did not retreat and dodge, but at the moment of this fight, the general's heart suddenly swelled with strong uneasiness.
Li Bingxue's eyes were like knives, and his murderous aura was awe-inspiring.
In the battle with Lin Xi in Jianghua City, although she was almost defeated by Lin Xi in the end, that failure benefited Li Bingxue a lot.
From Lin Xi's performance, she understood a very important truth, that is, the most taboo bells and whistles when fighting, simple and direct is the king.
Since then, she has worked hard to improve her internal skills, and has practiced countless times to simplify her moves on the battlefield.
When the Caspian Sea blocked the blow, Li Bingxue did not hesitate, her slender legs clamped the horse's belly, the mount seemed to be in contact with her heart, the front hooves suddenly jumped up for a pause, Li Bingxue withdrew the horse's lance, and her arms suddenly exerted force, and rose diagonally from the side.
The Balpian Sea could only block it again, but Li Bingxue was still tempted, but this time he did it with all his might.
"Bang!"
Weapons strike each other, and the force can shake the mountain.
On the noisy battlefield, the cavalry of the Jing army next to him saw his main general flying out of the horse, holding the spear in both hands, and the tiger's mouth was torn.
If Balihai hadn't done this, he would have been cut through half of his body by the fierce ice and snow's horse lance!
Rao is he struggled with all his strength to block, but he was still shot down by Li Bingxue from his horse, flew upside down and flew more than two feet, and fell to the body of a Jingjun cavalryman in the rear, smashing the cavalryman to death, and then the two rolled to the ground together.
Li Bingxue's mount fell with its front hooves at this moment, and she let go of her left hand and patted the horse's buttocks, and the divine horse rushed towards the Bali Sea not far away.
Balihai stood up in pain, and Li Bingxue had already come to him, holding the horse lance in one hand and stabbing him in the chest.
The Piptian spear had been lost, and in the face of the horse lance approaching him in the blink of an eye, there was no way to avoid it, and there was no way to hide, and his eyes couldn't help but have a look of despair.
At this critical moment, a young Jing army cavalry stabbed into the stab, and the spear was like a dragon, stabbing at the iron edge of the horse lance dangerously.
Balihai escaped death, and he didn't have time to see who rescued him, so he rolled short to avoid the attack range of the fierce ice and snow, picked up his spear, and quickly jumped on a horse that had lost its owner not far away.
This change did not make Li Bingxue panic, after all, the other party was the commander of thousands of cavalry, and there must be a guard by his own soldiers, but when she raised her eyes to look at the Jing army who came to the rescue, her eyes couldn't help but froze suddenly.
The person who came was not very old, dressed in navy blue light armor, and his face looked too handsome.
Qingyu Huaijin did not change her appearance, nor did she deliberately dress up, so Li Bingxue could see at a glance that she was a woman dressed as a man.
For Li Bingxue, who has been searching for intelligence on the border all year round, she knows the internal situation of Jing Jun very well, and she can't help but have a name in her mind, and when she sees the Jing Jun rushing madly on the opposite side, she immediately determines the true identity of this woman.
She must be Qingyu Huaijin!
All this is just a thought between lightning and flint, how could Li Bingxue not realize the excellent opportunity to appear in front of him, if he can capture this Jing Dynasty county lord alive, Daqi doesn't know how much benefit he can get from it.
Her mind raced, and she immediately rode forward, waving her horse with both hands and sweeping away.
Qing Yu Huaijin naturally knew the identity of this female general of the Southern Qi Dynasty, and also knew that the other party's martial arts were strong, at this moment she did not have the slightest fear in her heart, and the spear quickly advanced, not to be passive like the Bali Sea, but to choose to attack against attack!
Two long weapons were waved at the same time, and the whistling sound suddenly came to my ears.
Continuous tapping, sparks splash!
Although Qingyu Huaijin was slightly at a disadvantage, Li Bingxue did not achieve an absolute advantage.
The two of their personal guards rushed up desperately, and eventually staggered through them like a large army to which they belonged.
The regret in Li Bingxue's eyes flashed, but she was not immersed in this emotion, and rode forward to collect the cavalry brigade.
At this moment, the Feiyu Battalion and the main cavalry of the Jing Army switched positions, and in front of Li Bingxue was the Ruishi Battalion that had completed the turn.
The two sides were far apart, and Li Bingxue couldn't see Lu Shen's face clearly, and could only see the banner of the Ruishi Battalion suddenly slanting halfway, pointing out a clear direction.
Li Bingxue looked at the situation, and his heart was clear.
Without a word, she already knew the other party's intentions, as if she had returned to the outside of Guangling City when they first met, she and Lu Shen did not know each other, but they were able to complete the cooperation on the battlefield with amazing tacit understanding.
An indescribable emotion surged in Li Bingxue's heart, a sharp light flashed in her eyes, she turned her horse's head to look at the Jing Dynasty cavalry in the south, and said awe-inspiringly: "Rush!" ”
In the first collision, the two armies were damaged, but not to the point of breaking their bones.
The Jing army in the south was also completing the turn, as if they knew that if they couldn't solve the Feiyu battalion, it would be a fantasy to destroy the Huaizhou army's infantry array.
Li Bingxue took the lead, the soldiers of the Feiyu Battalion followed closely, and thousands of horses stepped into the clouds!
