The high mobility advantage of cavalry on the battlefield is reflected.

The Xixia cavalry's attack direction quickly changed, and some of them bypassed the infantry armor's defense and struck towards the side of the Song army like a storm.

After the distance was shortened, the Xixia cavalry began to shoot arrows.

But the left wing of the Song army was a circular formation.

Theoretically speaking, it is surrounded by heavy infantry and there are no blind spots.

However, the Song Army was the active attacker. When attacking, it was difficult to strictly maintain this kind of ring formation. In addition, there was a lack of unified dispatch and insufficient coordination between battalions.

The biggest shortcoming of the Xixia cavalry is that their armor is weak. Xixia's national power is poor, and it is impossible to equip medium-sized armor like the Jin Kingdom's Guaizima.

The furious Xixia cavalry kept falling off their horses under the dense crossbows of the Song army, just like the floods that were in stages were collapsing.

After trying many times, I finally found the flaw and started frantically attacking towards the flaw.

Bang bang bang...

The war horses and cavalry collided with the less tightly arranged infantry, armor and spear formations, making the sound of metal clashing.

Suddenly there were screams and the neighing of war horses.

The Xixia cavalry tore open the weak spot and swarmed in. Carrying knives and iron bones, they began to frantically attack the Song army's crossbow archers inside.

After the left wing of the Song Army was torn apart, the formation quickly became difficult to maintain, and a large bloody hole was torn out.

The right wing was obviously much stronger than the left wing. The Xixia cavalry tried many times to attack but failed to break through the defense.

At this time, the fighting between the forward armies of both sides had entered a fever pitch. The Song army's advantage began to expand as time went by, and the battle line moved forward rapidly.

It was rare that A Tu's forward army was no match for the Song army. He was originally preparing to retreat, but when he saw the main cavalry rushing over, he was overjoyed.

According to the current situation, once the Song army's left wing is completely defeated, the Xixia cavalry's front will be directed at the central army.

Even if it does not overwhelm the Chinese army, it will cause the Chinese army to lose its complete formation and its combat effectiveness will be greatly weakened.

If Li Liangfu's main infantry catches up and joins the battle, the outcome will be hard to say.

And Li Liangfu's main infantry was indeed advancing rapidly, rapidly spreading the attack line. Looking from a distance, it looked like a huge eagle spreading its wings.

Li Liangfu shouted loudly: "Destroy the Song dog in one fell swoop. Whoever takes the head of the Song coach will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins!"

The soldiers all felt as if they had been given blood. The Xixia people, who were strong and tough, roared and roared, with veins popping out of their foreheads, like wild beasts, holding knives, hammers, and carrying weapons on their backs.

Bows and arrows, shouting, advance quickly.

A large piece of flat land was quickly occupied by the attacking Xixia army, and it began to roll forward like a torrent.

Just when Li Liangfu's main force was about to join the battlefield, Li Yanxian's elite troops also arrived.

Li Yanxian's troops have long been proven to be very powerful in field battles, otherwise they would not be able to recapture Xi'an Prefecture in one day.

Li Yanxian's troops, who had just entered the battlefield, were like a huge curved sickle, sweeping towards the side and rear of Li Liangfu's main force.

One by one, they were carrying long knives and axes. As soon as they rushed in, they began to swing their weapons violently.

Click...

A Xixia soldier's head was split open with an axe, his brains popped out, and he died before he could scream.

Those Xixia soldiers wearing soft armor or even no armor, no matter how they could withstand such an attack, a large number of them were immediately chopped to the ground.

The left rear of Li Liangfu's main force was impacted and collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and countless people were killed under the butcher's knife of the Song army.

Li Yanxian personally led the team, as if the god of death descended from the sky.

"It's the Song Army who came to kill us!"

The loud shout of a Xixia soldier was like an inconspicuous wave in the sea on the battlefield, and did not arouse the attention of the main force in front.

After a long while, the movement on the left rear became louder and louder, and Li Liangfu realized that something was wrong.

The scouts rushed over wildly, shouting at the top of their lungs: "Report! Li Shuai, the rear of our army is under attack!"

Li Liangfu's heart skipped a beat and he was shocked: "Where did the Song army come from!"

He turned around and looked around. The flags obscured his view, but amid the noise, he heard the sound of fighting coming from that direction.

"Not good!" Li Liangfu looked livid, and he suddenly became confused.

At this time, the whole army was attacking. The front army was suppressed by the forward army, and the rear army was actually raided!

Where did the Song Army come from?

Li Liangfu was so angry that he sent scouts from all directions to investigate. The Song army in the rear would never be able to escape the eyes of the scouts, and it was even less possible for the Song army in Lanzhou City to stand out from the encirclement of tens of thousands of troops and join here.

Could it be that it didn’t come out of the land?

Li Liangfu looked around and saw Gaolan Mountain. He was suddenly startled. He seemed to realize something.

Came over Gaolan Mountain!

He took a breath.

It's too late to regret now.

Time seemed to slow down, and the horrific fighting unfolded outside Lanzhou City.

An hour after the head-on confrontation between the Song Army and the Xixia Army, the south gate of Lanzhou City was suddenly opened.

Groups of Song troops poured out of the city and began to form formations.

The heavy armored infantry were still at the front, with the crossbow archers holding down the formation behind, and the infantry accompanying them.

The Xixia people who were besieging the city also immediately mobilized their troops.

The Song army first covered the city with crossbows, and then began to advance under the defense of infantry armor.

The two sides soon began to fight each other.

A decisive battle also unfolded on the battlefield below Lanzhou City.

The Xixia general who besieged Lanzhou City was named Wei Ming Yeli. He was the eldest son of Xixia Prime Minister Wei Ming Anhui, and was the general of Zhuo Luo and Nanjun Division.

He expected that the Song Army in Lanzhou City would definitely leave the city at this time. When the people below reported that the Song Army came out from the South City Gate, he immediately began to mobilize the surrounding troops and assemble at the South City Gate.

Although the total strength of the Xixia army is more than 60,000, in fact more than 20,000 are baggage troops.

For the barren Xixia, they were also used as regular troops at critical moments, but their combat effectiveness was another matter.

The battle outside the city gate quickly turned into a fierce hand-to-hand battle.

After half an hour, the east city gate was suddenly opened. In the surprised eyes of the Xixia army outside the city, another Song army rushed out of the city.

This is a cavalry force of 500 people, which is the number of all the cavalry in Lanzhou City.

Guan Shigu pressed all the cavalry up and concentrated his forces.

After they rushed out, they poured into the Xixia army like a mudslide, quickly penetrated a part of the Xixia army that had been mobilized, and then attacked frantically towards the south city gate.

The Xixia army, which originally held the absolute initiative, was cut into three parts of the city and was attacked from the side and rear by Li Yanxian. It was now clearly at a disadvantage.

Liu Qian's forward team crippled Atuhan's forward team and continued to move forward.

However, Li Liangfu had given up the charge and started to break out with his own bodyguards. Half of his main force was defeated by Li Yanxian.

Human heads rolled on the pile of corpses, and blood flowed down and gathered into small depressions.
