Before Tan Shao finished speaking, he heard thunderous iron hooves and shouts of killing suddenly rang out from the direction of the gap in the city. Countless blue Beihai King flags suddenly stood up and rushed toward the gap area from all directions. The sound of Hujia and tambourine resounded through the sky, and the sound of the assault war cry of "Ula" beat with the muscles on Tan Shao's face.
Soon, screams in Chinese followed, and occasionally a few hoarse roars could be heard: "No chaos, hold your formation, meet the enemy, meet the enemy!"
However, these sounds were too small and thin, and were instantly drowned out by the shouts of "Ula" and the terrible sounds of broken bones and tendons when iron hoofs stepped on the human body, as well as the sounds of the crossbow firing and the crossbow machine. From further away, it should be the sound of the wooden armor machine man, but it was still sparse and out of scale. Soon, the sound of several huge machine men falling to the ground was also heard, and gradually, the whole city All that was left on the ground were the blue flags moving rapidly everywhere and the ubiquitous sound of "Ula".
Tan Shao gritted his teeth and said sternly to Tan Hezhi on the side: "Send the order, the whole army stops. Shen Linzi leads five thousand people to guard the front to defend against the enemy's green armored cavalry assault. The Chinese infantry and the flanking phalanx form Shen Tianzi's troops immediately Turn around and retreat, prepare to meet the enemy's cavalry and charge through the gap. Kuai En's troops will cut off and cover, and then follow up! Please quickly invite Shen Tianzi and Kuai En to come to my place."
His order was given to the dozen or so messengers around him with drums, horns and flags. Two or three minutes later, two cavalrymen came over. It was Shen Tianzi and Kuai En who were sweating profusely and looking anxious.
When Tan Shao saw Kuai En, he didn't say much. He pointed in the direction of the gap and said in a deep voice: "What's going on? Where is Kuai Yue? Where are the troops left behind?"
Kuai En slapped the saddle bitterly: "It's probably because this kid was greedy for power and rushed into the city. He provoked Zhang Gang and rushed into the city. It's my fault. I should have stayed behind in person!"
Shen Tianzi also shook his head in self-reproach and said: "I should have persisted and stayed where I was. With me here, they would never dare to mess around."
Tan Shao closed his eyes and sighed: "Well, it's useless to hold people accountable now. If we really want to hold people accountable, the first person responsible is me, Tan Shao. I hired someone unknown and combined an inexperienced young man with a man who only wants revenge." The guys stayed where they shouldn't be, without any restraint or precautions. It's too late to say this now. The soldiers and horses in the city must have been broken. The real main force of the enemy army is here in the gap. This time they will definitely not There won’t be any hesitation anymore, and we don’t have a line of defense like Tianzi did before. There will be at least five or six thousand armored men on horseback who are about to come out, how can we resist?”
Shen Tianzi gritted his teeth: "We can only gather all the heavy baggage vehicles and push them in front to hold the front. I had already given this order when I came. Otherwise, my subordinates will all be light soldiers and sharp soldiers, even heavy armored ones." We don’t even have a big shield, so we can’t defend ourselves against enemy cavalry attacks.”
Kuai En said in a deep voice: "Before, our troop configuration was heavy in the front and light in the rear. The heavy troops to guard against enemy cavalry were in the front towards the city gate, while the light troops were behind to block the city gate. Now there is no heavy troops here in Tianzi." Troop A has more than a hundred baggage trucks in my army. I'm afraid it will take half an hour to move the trucks from the front to the rear. What should I do during this time?"
Shen Tianzi and Kuai En looked at Tan Shao at the same time. Tan Shao gritted his teeth and said seriously: "Before you came just now, I had already thought about it. I have gathered all the cavalry. There are more than three hundred cavalry. , after the enemy cavalry leaves the city, we will personally lead the cavalry to counterattack the enemy cavalry. No matter what, we must buy time for the infantry to turn into formation, do you understand?"
Shen Tianzi's eyebrows moved, he laughed, and shook the big ax in his hand: "This is what I came here to do. Give the order, brother A Shao, you and Da Zhuang lead the cavalry to attack, I will lead my The Shen family's light soldiers are behind, specializing in cutting the horse's legs. We were already very skilled at this when we fought against Murong Lin."
Tan Shao frowned: "Is it really okay to confront the cavalry head-on on the flat ground, or even the cavalry that rushes up? These Wu soldiers are hard-won, they are all the hard work of your Shen family for many years."
Shen Tianzi said in a deep voice: "Brother Ah Shao, each of our subordinates is a warrior of the Jin Dynasty. If we all think about preserving our strength and no one dares to fight to the death, then this battle will be defeated. Our Shen family's light soldiers, It is not good for battles, but this kind of close-quarters fighting is our strength. As long as the impact of the cavalry can slow down the enemy cavalry, it is best to enter the melee mode, then we can come in handy. The enemy will be the first to leave the city. The wave charge must be the strongest and most fierce. If it is so, it cannot be resisted. Even if we all die in battle, as long as we can buy time for the soldiers behind to form their formation, it will be a profit!"
Tan Shao's eyes sparkled with tears, and he nodded vigorously: "With brothers like you, what else can I say? Well, let's attack now, Da Zhuang, don't go back, I'll send someone to give you the order Your lieutenant general will act as ordered, and you and I will lead the cavalry to attack!"
Kuai En shook his head and said: "Shao Shuai, you are the commander-in-chief. If you want to stabilize the morale of the army here, you cannot personally face the enemy and charge into the formation. Leave this charge to me."
Tan Shao's expression changed: "No, at this time, I must personally charge and stabilize the morale of the army. Do you think I can't lift the halberd and kill the thieves?"
Kuai En smiled and said: "Brother Ah Shao, that's not the case. You are now the commander-in-chief of Xicheng. You must not move lightly. You are not just an officer like before. You just need to take the lead in the charge. Just like Brother Jinu, you are also sitting on the commanding platform now." ?, but who would think that he is not as brave as before? There are still 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers here for you to dispatch and command. Once your flag is lost in the enemy's formation, then we will collapse directly. This counterattack is to buy time. If it’s counterproductive because the Lord will lose money, then what’s the point?”
When he said this, he took a deep breath, his single eye flashed with light, and he said loudly: "We can live here without me, Kuai En, without Shen Tianzi, but we cannot live without you, Tan Shao!"
As he spoke, he clapped his horse forward and ran directly towards the more than 300 riders who were already lined up in front of him. As he ran, he shouted: "Are you all ready to die with me?"
The eyes of more than three hundred riders were gleaming as they followed Kuai En and shouted in unison: "Destroy the Hu, destroy the Hu, destroy the Hu!"
Quin stood still in front, turned his horse's head, looked at the cavalry behind him, and said loudly: "Where is Hu?"
All the cavalry weapons pointed at the gap: "There, there!"
Quin laughed loudly, turned around and ran towards the gap at full speed: "Then what are you waiting for? Do you want to live another thousand years?"
