Although the crossbow cart is powerful, it is very bulky, and it is difficult to adjust the direction in a short time, and at this moment, the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom has already raised the sword in their hands, and rushed towards the Mo family infantry while the arrow was loaded!

The spear and the sword collided violently, and the blood bloomed in the air like a delicate flower.

As expected by the cavalry of the Tang Kingdom, these 4,000 infantry did their best to resist, and under the impact of the cavalry's thunderous momentum, they still looked so powerless, and the power of the war horse charge was by no means humanly bearable.

The infantry in the front row broke up into a mass of sand in a few breaths.

"What's going on?"

At this time, the generals who led the cavalry of the Tang State discovered an anomaly - although they were like a bamboo, constantly breaking into the infantry array, but the expected scene of penetrating the infantry all the way to the city did not happen.

The 4,000 infantry survived with great difficulty, but in the end they still endured it without taking a step back!

At the same time, the ballista was fired again, like locusts flying in the sky.

The cavalry general got closer to see clearly that in the formation of the infantry, there were actually rows of wooden carts hidden.

These wooden carts do not resemble any special weapons, most of them are converted from common people's ox carts, except that they have blades on them and the two feet below are driven into the ground.

It was precisely because of the existence of these modified wooden carts that the infantry formation did not collapse at the slightest touch, and even slowed down the cavalry's march.

"Do you ride in a car? Li Yu looked ahead and shook his head, "Maybe it's okay to face others, but ......"

As the drums thumped and thundered, the formation of the Tang cavalry changed again. The Tang cavalry in front had indeed exhausted the momentum of the charge, but had become a target under the infantry spears.

However, 10,000 cavalry, even if one or two thousand are trapped in it, what does it matter? At this moment, the follow-up Tang cavalry silently opened the distance, freed up the gap for the charge, and then, moving forward again, it turned out to be in the middle of a charge, and then launched a second time!

At this time, the four thousand infantry could no longer bear it, and they scattered into a ball, and those so-called "chariots" were originally temporary modifications, and they could no longer control the formation at all, not to mention, even the specially built chariots, even if they were afraid, they couldn't resist it.

At the beginning of the public defeat of the leading troops, he felt that this matter was a little unreliable, and when he saw this scene, he had already broken his heart, threw down the crossbow cart, and fled backwards like a lost dog.

"Open the door, open the door!" The defeated infantry fled all the way back to the city of Jinzhou, constantly slapping at the heavy city gates.

The gate of Jinzhou was opened, and the routs poured into the city, and at the same time, the crossbow carts at the head of the city finally adjusted their direction, and released arrows at the Tang cavalry, intercepting their horses' hooves with a curtain of arrows.

It's just that this trick is used now, it already looks old, and the Tang cavalry finally put on a hard hand shield in the process of running on the horse, maybe the shield is not big, but it can resist some arrows with insufficient strength, they sang all the way forward, brandished their swords, and killed the Mo family's infantry in all directions.

The cavalry general of the "Gate ......" saw the chaos of the rout and the gate of Jinzhou open, but many thoughts turned in his heart. For these cavalrymen, siege is not their specialty, they can't climb the ladder on their horses, and many times, they can only be regarded as death squads when the two armies are facing each other.

However, at this moment, the gate was opening to them, and these routs were crowding into the city, and this gate could not be closed in a short time, was this not the best opportunity that God had given them?

The corners of the general's mouth hooked, and he laughed, who is a member of the army who does not want to make meritorious contributions? If he breaks through Jinzhou, he will definitely be the first to make meritorious contributions, and when the time comes, he can hardly imagine what kind of promotion and reward he will get.

"Rush in!" he made up his mind and shouted loudly, the cavalry no longer chased Wang Xuanwei's Mo family cavalry, but continued to chase the rout towards the gate, and the team slowly rushed towards the direction of the city gate.

He was killed, but Li Yu, who was commanding in the rear, changed color on his face and exclaimed, "What does he want to do?"

"Beat the drums, let him come back!" Li Yu said loudly, "That's not where he can go!"

However, a voice sounded in his ears: "I'm afraid...... It's late. ”

Li Yu turned his head, and the deputy general beside him had a strange expression, and he stopped talking.

It's really late.

At the moment when the rhythm of the war drums changed, the cavalry of the Tang State had rushed into the gate with a bang, and they were full of pride in their chests, seeing that the roads in Jinzhou City were wide, and the cavalry could ride on a flat river, galloping to their heart's content, and it should be difficult to resist only the miscellaneous defenders in the city.

But it's all in their imagination.

Just as the cavalry general couldn't help but smile, a voice quietly sounded, it was the sound of many ropes being pulled, although not loud, but with a deadly muffled sound.

"Tripping horses!" the cavalry general's pupils shrank sharply, and he saw a few steps in front of him, at some point, countless tough ropes were crossing, and the sand and soil were flying......

Immediately in front of him and on his side, the sound of the war horse overturning and screaming was heard.

It's as simple as that?

Of course not.

A trench appeared behind him, and these trenches had been dug for a long time, but unlike ordinary trenches, they were padded with stone slabs underneath, and they would not collapse even if the horses trampled on them.

But the slate was not a complete and hard slate, it was all supported by the crosswood below, once these crossbars were cut off by the loser's mechanism at one time, these slate slabs suddenly fell, and the entire trench would form a huge fault, which not only blocked the movement of the cavalry in the rear, but also made it impossible for the cavalry in front to turn back.

"This ......"

The generals at the head of the city cut the ropes, and the rocks fell from the sky.

"This idiot!" Li Yu almost roared, "such an obvious flaw, he didn't hesitate to rush in like this?"

It's just that he quickly lowered his eyebrows again, and suddenly understood why such a mistake had occurred.

The people of the Tang State Cavalry Battalion were accustomed to Xiang Chu's tactics of aggression like fire, and if they didn't move, they would have no taboos once they went to the battlefield.

However, there are only two people who can really use such tactics to the extreme, one is Xiang Chu, and the other is Long Ju.

If he followed Xiang Chu's words and directly attacked the city in an all-out way, even if there were traps in the city, how many Tang troops could he kill?

And if they did not dare to lure the Tang army into the city because they were afraid of the Tang army, the four thousand infantry would be alone and would sooner or later be strangled outside the city.

He knew why Xiang Chu didn't stop him, it was naturally because it was Yang Taizhen standing behind him.

For Xiang Chu, Yang Taizhen has always been a little vigilant, although he must be used in the army, but he has never stopped doubting him, or afraid that he will once be a conference to support the army and self-respect, so when he set off, Yang Taizhen specially gave him a will, let him accompany Xiang Chu as a military supervisor, and control it at the appropriate time.

Xiang Chu probably also knew about this matter, so he simply handed over the command to him.

It's just that...... Could it be that Wang Xuanwei also expected this matter?

Maybe...... He really expected it.

Although these two people have been enemies for a long time, they happen to know each other best.

"Why did you come up?" At the head of the city, Gong Yi Cha saw Gong Yin Xue coming, and was a little surprised for a while, "Hurry down, it's dangerous here." ”

"I can't wait in the tent all the time, I want to see it with my own eyes. As soon as Gong Yinxue lowered his head, the situation at the city gate immediately came into view, and the trench was like a monster with a big mouth open, devouring many horses and cavalry at once, and more cavalry fell in the position of thistle terrestris and tripping horses.

A thousand spearmen lay in ambush on both sides of the gates, filling the gaps and stabbing their spears at the fallen knights.

Only a few people survived, but even if he asked how to struggle, there was no way to reverse the situation.

The general of the Tang Kingdom stood up with all his strength, and after the helmet fell off, his hair was scattered, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

But he roared, his blood running through his body, and he slammed into the group of spearmen like an angry bull with his sword in his hand, and as soon as he turned his head to avoid the piercing of the three spears, the swords slashed upward, and the heads of the three spears fell.

He took two steps forward, Ma Zhan's sword was already longer than an ordinary long sword, and in a flash of blood, it slitted the throats of the three people who were coming in front of him.

But at the same time he was surrounded by pikemen, and as he ran, one of the pikemen in front of him could not avoid it, and stabbed forward with his spear in his mouth closed.

The cavalry general leaned slightly, his sword abandoned, and the wooden pole of the spear was rubbed at his waist, and with a single slash, the pikeman's blood splattered everywhere, and the blood gushed out stained his hair and armor.

"Come on, kill me!" he roared as he looked around with his sword.
