Chapter 182

Confrontation

The road is flat and the sight is wide.

The Wei army's cavalry stood fiercely in the flying dust and stopped. Looking at the infantry camp lined up with shields in the distance, it seemed to be estimating the number of opponents, looking at the surrounding terrain, and planning for the upcoming war.

Xie Yuan turned his attention to his side, and saw that the soldiers in the formation under the hillside were ready to fight, and the atmosphere was tense.

She also turned her eyes to the Wei cavalrymen in the distance. Looking at that, there were at least two thousand people.

And because her subordinates were in the reserve camp, the number was not full. There were four guards and three hundred guards, but only about one thousand two hundred.

The cavalry naturally has the advantage of suppressing the infantry, and it moves fast and is much higher than the infantry on the horseback. When the two sides face each other, the cavalry is condescending, and they have the advantage in terms of vision and the effort spent on killing.

Therefore, if infantry want to have strength with cavalry, they can only rely on close formations to fight.

If the infantry is dispersed and fled, it will only die faster.

If a person's legs cannot run away from the horse, it will be destined to be a unilateral massacre that is chased.

Xie Yuan's face was solemn.

She knew that at this time, how to overcome the fear of facing a strong enemy is more important than anything else.

Never let the soldiers turn around and escape because of fear. At that time, they will be defeated like a mountain and the gods will not be able to save them even if they descend to earth.

Xie Yuan walked aside in military uniform and turned over the horse. Then he said to a messenger:

"Go to report the military information here to the general... Just report it truthfully, don't ask for help, don't disrupt the general's military deployment."

"Yes!" The messenger took the order, immediately turned over and rode his horse quickly towards the northeast direction.

Xie Yuan subconsciously reached out and pulled the leather buckle under the leather armor, looked at the cavalry of the Northern Wei in the distance, and said coldly to the personal soldiers behind him:

"After a short time, as long as we fight together, you will follow me into the formation and fight hard to kill the enemy to boost morale for the entire camp!"

Sun Tian and Xiao Erdan looked at each other, and in the end, Sun Tian reminded him carefully:

"Captain, the gap between the enemy and us is too great, and the opponent's troops may be more than twice as much as mine. Our responsibility is to prevent the defeat, and you can escort you away if you lose. But you have to lead someone to charge in the battle, so such arrangements may not be appropriate."

Xie Yuan glanced at them coldly, as if observing everyone's expressions. Everyone was shrunk by her phoenix eyes.

After a while, she said:

"The pits on the ground were not dug in vain before, and the archers lying on both sides were not arranged in vain. We were well prepared. They probably would have lost hundreds of people before they arrived. In addition, the shield soldiers and spears behind us were solid, so it would not be certain who would run around and escape."

After Xie Yuan finished speaking these truths, he raised his voice again, and said with anger and sternness:

"You are my personal soldiers, but not only protect me, but you can also be a warrior with one or ten! You are the example of the entire battalion! They are the flags of the entire battalion! If anyone retreats in the face of the battle and hesitates, the military law will deal with it!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison, got on the horses together, and were ready for battle.

At this moment, the cavalry on the opposite side finally moved and roared in a mighty manner.

They seemed to have guessed the people who were ambushing on the gentle slopes on both sides, so when they started charging, before they reached the range of the array, their full attention was turned on the gentle slopes on both sides.

While riding a horse and charging, he pulled his bow and aimed at both sides, ready to shoot arrows at any time.

Several arrow feathers of Wei army shot tentatively into the grass slope next to them, without attracting the imagined attack.

So he accelerated his speed and rushed forward with a shout of killing.

Xiao Erdan, who was beside Xie Yuan, was shocked at this time, and his voice was so nervous that he was panicked. He asked, "Captain, where are the ambush archers, why didn't they respond?"

Xie Yuan looked at the battlefield in front of him, and a pair of Danfeng's eyes shone with bright light, and said excitedly: "I'm afraid that he would shoot the arrow too early and waste the arrangement on the ground. It's so good!"

Sure enough, the horses rushing forward quickly fell to the ground because of the trap. At this time, the archers arranged on both sides cooperated with the chaos to take action!

The rain of arrows flew down and fell towards the other side.

The Wei army had a moment of mistakes in advance and retreat, and hesitated not to know whether to continue moving forward or retreat. There was a trap in front and a dense rain of arrows behind. The wounded soldiers and horses who fell to the ground blocked their way.

But during this hesitation, there were about a hundred casualties.

Then he saw that the Wei army was like crazy, and the cavalry stuck in the middle rushed forward frantically.

Those who have not yet entered the trap began to focus on cleaning up the ambush on both sides.

They did not escape. They might be too confident. Facing the prepared ambush, they were still extremely fierce and invincible.

Xie Yuan drew out his sword and looked at the Wei cavalry who had escaped the pits and rushed towards the formation.

One of them was seen flying up and jumping into the gun shield with a horse.

Although he was soon stabbed to death by everyone, he died, but he successfully disrupted the small formation for a moment and was rushed in by the cavalry behind him...

This is the key!

"Care with me!!!!" Xie Yuan raised his sword and shouted, and rushed down the hill first.

More than 60 cavalrymen followed closely behind her, carrying the flags of the camp flags behind her, and rushed down the hillside in the wind.

The infantry, who had been temporarily shocked by the bravery of the Wei army, saw the captain and the sound of killing people rushing into the formation with a terrifying sound of killing, with a rainbow of momentum.

Suddenly, everyone felt a sense of heroism in their hearts. They all cooperated in groups according to the formation they usually trained, and they started to slash and kill while lifting their shields.

The road was full of dead bodies of people and horses, and the congestion was abnormal. The cavalry had no advantage of rushing by moving quickly, and could only cut down from the height.

However, Xie Yuan's subordinates cooperated extremely well. One man lifted the shield to block the knife, and one man picked up the spear and stabbed the horse's legs, and another man waved his knife to cut off the horse's legs...

With such cooperation, the cavalry that were terrified in the past fell to the ground like a wheat-harvested pole, and the situation was like crushing by.

The cavalry in the middle that was trapped in the trap was quickly cleaned up.

The morale of the infantry behind Xie Yuan was unprecedentedly high. While shouting "Kill!" in unison, the small formation was in an orderly manner and advanced while carrying large formations.

They stepped past the corpse that fell to the ground under their feet, and the shouts of killing echoed in the valley, as unstoppable as heavenly soldiers descended to earth.

At this time, more than a thousand Wei cavalry were left to fight against Xie Yuan's infantry. Because of the limited terrain, they could not perform.

I went to chase the ambush archers on both sides, but I didn't get any advantage.
Chapter completed!
