Chapter 319: Chaos Order(1/2)
The wind hisses, the horse roars, and the blood roars filial piety.
Jisun, who was charging at high speed, slashed the neck of a Han soldier with his knife, knocked over a man who turned his back and ran away with his knife, and tried to stab the third man in the chest with his knife.
But the Huanshou sword broke when it hit the opponent's blade.
Ji Sun showed no mercy and threw the hilt of his sword at the Han soldier, causing his appearance to be disfigured.
Afterwards, Jisun crouched on his horse and continued to charge. He dodged a spear that was stabbed at him, and then pulled out an iron bone flower from his trousers and continued to hit him.
As for the Han soldier who was missed by the Sun Sacrifice, he did not escape and was stabbed to death by the Jinan Yellow Turban Cavalry who followed closely behind the Sun Sacrifice.
Not far away, Lu Zhi was sitting on a horse under a large banner, surrounded by a curtain, and in front and behind were armored soldiers with helmets and armor.
At this time, Lu Zhi naturally discovered the counterattack of a Qingzhou Yellow Turban Cavalry, but Lu Zhi did not take it to heart.
He calmly looked at the situation on the battlefield.
Both the left and center armies of the thieves were defeated. The only one that still maintained a stable formation was their right army, but it was difficult to save the building.
There were also hundreds of cavalry rushing towards them, but Lu Zhi also regarded them as clowns and had nothing to worry about.
Tens of thousands of troops were defeated, so what use were hundreds of men to help?
He has never seen anyone who can break through the barriers of thousands of troops, kill generals and seize the flag. Besides, at this time, there are thousands of Yue cavalry opposite him, and there is an armored formation of 400 people. He also has 500 people under his tent.
So, stay calm and everything is under control.
…
When Jisun and others rushed past Yueqi, Zhou Zhong shouted that it was not good and hurriedly blew the horn to dispatch his troops to chase Jisun and others.
Facing the oncoming Yue cavalry, the Jinan Yellow Turban cavalry kept turning around and cutting off their horses' heads to buy time for Sun Ji to advance forward.
But Sun Ji's charge also ran into trouble.
Standing in front of them was a 400-strong armored force. Originally, they had to be spared in order to sacrifice their grandson, but this phalanx formed a wide formation and surrounded them tightly behind.
You can't go around any longer to sacrifice your grandson. If you go around more, the whole horse will stop.
Having no other choice, Ji Sun led his cavalry and charged directly into the phalanx.
Fortunately, in order to form a wide formation, the thickness of the Han army's armored line was very thin. As long as four or five people were killed, they could be penetrated.
But if this guard was selected by Lu Zhi as his own guard and could wear armor, how could it be considered an ordinary soldier?
When Ji Sun was charging forward, a soldier in front of him showed no fear and struck Ji Sun on the head with a single blow of his long horse-cutting sword.
Fortunately, Jisun was wearing an iron helmet and did not follow the example of others and only wore a red turban. Otherwise, Jisun's life would have been killed in one fell swoop.
Jisun was also startled. The chop hit Doumo, and he was only slightly bruised. When he was stressed, his bone hit the opposite chest.
But this time, the sacrifice to the grandson did not hurt this person, at least on the surface. The man had armor on his chest, and when he sacrificed to the grandson, he did not hit the bones in a circle from behind, and the momentum was not enough.
Later, Ji Sun was hit on the shoulder by something unknown, which also scratched his armor, but was not serious.
He couldn't kill the front row armored soldiers, but the war horse under Ji Sun's crotch had already taken him deeper.
But within a few steps, the war horse heard a cry, and then fell to the ground. An enemy warrior holding a horse-cutting sword cut off the horse's hoofs, and the war horse fell to the ground without weight.
Sisun rolled to the ground, and the armor on his body had blocked him from many swords. But even so, when Sisun stood up, he was still dizzy, and his whole body was covered with blood and mud.
Fortunately, the cavalry companions who followed him also charged in. In the brief collision with the Han army's armored soldiers, they also fell to the ground like sacrificing their grandchildren.
Obviously, this group of Han armored soldiers were specially trained to block the charge of cavalry. This can be seen from their body shape and the horse-cutting swords they hold.
But what is surprising is that in this brief impact, the number of casualties on both sides was very small. The total number of casualties was probably only a dozen, and the number of injured was estimated to be twice that number.
In the short battle, the Jinan Yellow Turbans' thick winter clothes and iron armor helped them withstand many attacks from the Han army.
The ring-headed swords on the Yellow Turban Riders are not very effective against the Han soldiers. This is because the Han soldiers are all wearing armor, and some of them have outstanding physical fitness and are also wrapped in several layers of armor.
But in the end, the Yellow Turban Cavalry was at a disadvantage, not because they were inferior to the armored soldiers, but because many of their horses had their legs cut off by the opponent. Most of them, like Ji Sun, had lost their mobility.
Dozens of swords come at you, and hundreds of swords come back.
Even without their horses, the Jinan Yellow Turban cavalry were still moving unswervingly towards the Yanhan banner under the leadership of Qu Shuai Jisun.
Ji Sun and these Qingzhou heroes have long since had no other ideas, other than death!
One man begged for death, and thousands of men fought against the enemy, not to mention hundreds of heroes who were upright. As a result, the Han army's armored formation was retreating visibly to the naked eye.
And more and more Yellow Turban heroes broke through the phalanx, and continued to advance towards the Great Banner of Yanhan with their sacrificial grandsons in their arms.
The fight ahead was all in Lu Zhi's eyes.
The place where he set up the banner is one of the few slopes on this battlefield. Although it may not be more than a foot high, it is already the commanding height of this area.
Looking at the moth generals fighting hard down the slope, fearlessly seeking death, Lu Zhi felt a little stirring in his heart.
He calmed down his scattered mind and winked at the ghost-faced general beside the big banner. The ghost-faced general Yu Shi led two hundred soldiers to kill him down the slope, pointing directly at the position of sacrificing his grandson.
As soon as the ghost-faced general moved this way, Lu Zhi stopped looking this way, because he believed that with Yu Shi's fighting power, the outcome was already determined.
Therefore, Lu Zhi looked at the center of the battlefield, where the Youzhou Assault Cavalry was located.
Lu Zhi was so happy to see his horse riding wildly and violently, but soon he rubbed his eyes, looked into the distance in disbelief, and dropped the whip in his hand.
…
Youzhou Tuqi really avenged their shame this time.
This battle is called a smooth battle. Aside from the fact that the bandit army accidentally attacked and killed the deputy commander-in-chief at the beginning, this battle can be described as exciting.
First, the archers launched a long-distance attack and shot down the rebels, leaving the enemy with mourning all over the place. Then the infantry rushed across the line and destroyed the strong formation on the opposite side. Finally, it was the Youzhou Assault Cavalry who made the decisive move and won the battle.
This is right.
This is what their Youzhou assault cavalry fought for. The reason why they were defeated in Xingyang before was all because of the deputy commander-in-chief who was an amateur and an expert in commanding. He had to use their assault cavalry to directly attack some strong formation, so they had the previous situation.
shame.
Sure enough, I had heard that the sect member was from the south, so the south can also fight?
But this time it's different. After the new commander Cui Jun took over the command and started fighting this battle, he decided to fight it the right way.
I heard that Cui Shuai belongs to a famous family in Hebei. As expected, his father is a hero and his son is a good man.
At this time, Lieutenant Gai Tong of the Left Military Academy was leading a team of 20 people. He knocked over a group of defeated soldiers on horseback, and then their swords and swords intersected, leaving a fragment of limbs and arms.
Wearing the basin collar armor, Gai Tong became more and more energetic as he killed.
He shot down one who was about to run away with one arrow, smashed one who was kowtowing to beg for mercy with one shot, and as for the other who dared to resist stubbornly, Gai Gong didn't even need to take action. His horse directly kicked the thief's chest down with a backward kick.
chest.
Now that he knows it, he still doesn't feel as angry as he did before the war.
Before the war, he was dissatisfied as to why the fifty men of armor and cavalry were not given to him to command, but instead were given to a boy named Gongsun Yue who didn't even have full hair.
In terms of martial prowess, family background, and seniority, how could Gongsun Yue be as good as him? He was simply not worthy of being given a drowning device.
But it happened that Gongsun Yue was the cavalry commander who was heavily equipped with sudden cavalry. Look at the heavy armor of those fifty cavalrymen, and they looked like a weapon for killing generals, seizing flags, and making marquises and ministers. Now it is really a secret investment.
But now Gai Tong is relieved. How angry he was before, he is so happy now.
Sure enough, Lu Shuai still cares about his family, knowing that this position can only be given to a young man like Gongsun Yue. Without him, he can die and carry it!
Ha ha.
No wonder Gai Tong was so proud, it was just because as Lu Zhi was the important winner in this battle, the heavy equipment of the fifty cavalry was too miserable.
The 50 heavily armored assault cavalry were indeed extraordinary. Once they charged, the ground would shake and the mountains would shake. They were unrivaled. When the enemy's left formation was in ruins, they plowed over the entire enemy's formation.
The thieves' sabers could not hurt them at all, but they were crushed into pulp by these fifty cavalrymen. The effect was unexpectedly good.
In fact, at the beginning, the officers of the Youzhou Tuqi were not optimistic about these heavy cavalry. It was not that they thought this type of troops was bad, but that they felt that only fifty cavalry could do a good job!
Tens of thousands of people were fighting, and they were exhausted to death just by relying on these fifty cavalry.
But when I use it now, I find that this heavy cavalry is actually so useful in assaulting and dividing the enemy formation. Because it has everything to do, the thief formation will be broken into pieces at a touch. Although not many people are killed, it can destroy the remaining formation of the thief army.
Stir until finely chopped.
However, the next fifty riders were in dire straits.
Because the horses slowed down, these cavalrymen were knocked to the ground by the angry Jinan Yellow Turbans, and then seven or eight of them were arrested and stoned to death.
Even the leader, Gongsun Yue, would have died in the formation if he had not spared the energy to lead him out because his horse was a divine horse sponsored by Gongsun Zan.
This was the first appearance of the Han army's heavily armored assault cavalry. Although it was extraordinary, it had a tragic ending.
In fact, the death of these heavy cavalry is still to blame on these Youzhou assault cavalry, just because they don't know how to cooperate with these heavy cavalry.
Generally speaking, a mature heavy cavalry strategy is to arrange various arms around the heavy cavalry.
Because of the armament capabilities of heavy cavalry, neither light cavalry nor light armored cavalry can compete with it.
The crossbowman may be able to defend himself against the charging heavy cavalry by missing arrows in his hand. As long as the shot hits a weak point in the armor of the cavalry or warhorse, the heavy cavalry will be dismounted, but the probability of this situation is too low.
Because facing the charge of heavy cavalry, not many archers had the courage to stand still. Most of them had to run away before the heavy cavalry rushed in front of them, otherwise they would not be able to escape. From such a distance, the arrows shot by these archers missed the target.
Of course it's not of much use.
Therefore, as soon as the heavy cavalry appears, it becomes the king of the battlefield and the decisive force that dominates the battlefield trend.
