There was a dull sound of impact one after another, and accompanied by the unique sound of bone breaking of flesh and blood, the horses that had been set up by the Han army and were deeply embedded in the soil began to shake, tremble, break, and shift.
…
The Xianbei cavalry who was the first to hit the horse with his men and his horse spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground with his horse. The Xianbei cavalry behind them trampled on the corpses of their own men, jumped up high again, and faced each other.
Looking at the flaw in the middle that was pushed open, he jumped in like crazy and squeezed in! Facing the spears of the Han army's formation that shone with cold light, he ran directly into them!
The sharp spear sank into the chest and abdomen of the war horse in an instant, but at the next moment, the huge body of the war horse pressed the entire spear into deformation and bending, causing the spear handle to snap into two pieces...
A broken spear handle bounced up, and happened to hit the neck of another spearman on the side. The broken wood was also sharp, and it penetrated directly into the spearman's throat. This unlucky spear
The soldier didn't have time to react at all. He didn't even let out a scream before he fell to the sky.
The kinetic energy generated by the heavy war horse coupled with its speed was extremely terrifying. Although several sword and shield players supported each other, they could not withstand the successive heavy impacts. They were knocked backwards and fell to the ground.
The formation suddenly exposed a huge gap!
Huang Cheng dropped his bow, picked up his long sword, and rushed forward with a few steps. He shouted loudly, and the sword flashed past like lightning. The Xianbei cavalry who had just rushed into the formation subconsciously raised his hand to use it.
The sword stopped him, but it was already too late. Even his arm and head were slashed into two parts, and the blood in his chest sprayed all over the sky with a "pop" sound!
The general's bravery inspired the morale of the soldiers. The Han soldiers faced the Xianbei cavalry, slashing with swords and stabbing with spears. Five or six soldiers surrounded the Xianbei cavalry who rushed into the formation and struck with swords and spears.
The Xianbei knight on horseback waved his sword, twisted his waist to avoid the spear thrust from the side, and cut it down with a condescending sword!
A sword and shield wielder put the shield on his shoulder, bent his body slightly forward, and withstood the Xianbei cavalry's chop. His right hand took the opportunity to slash the ring knife hard on the Xianbei cavalry's calf. The sharp blade not only almost
The calves of the Xianbei cavalry were cut into two sections, and the belly of the war horse was also cut open. The bloody intestines were immediately exposed.
The Xianbei cavalry screamed and slashed wildly with their sabers...
The sword-shielder was just about to retreat, but he didn't expect that the injured horse would kick him diagonally, hitting his lower abdomen. He couldn't bear the pain and could only bend over...
Upon seeing this, the Xianbei cavalry immediately raised their swords and slashed, cutting off the cervical vertebrae of the swordsman and shield wielder...
At the next moment, the Xianbei cavalry who had just succeeded in revenge was stabbed through the chest and abdomen by a spearman from the other side. The sword in his hand was loosened and he fell off his horse...
As Huang Cheng's soldiers in the Han army's formation began to die and be wounded, the Xianbei cavalry who rushed into the formation also fell one after another. Although they broke through the line of the Han army's formation, they also lost the speed of their horses and were killed by the Han army's soldiers.
Surround them and kill them.
The Xianbei cavalry tried to get together and kicked and beat the horses desperately, even slashing the horses' buttocks with their swords, forcing the horses to knock away the crowd and continue running forward, trying to mess up the Han army's formation even more.
Completely penetrated.
The two sides started a bloody fight on this narrow river beach, and everyone was trying to kill more opponents before they died. On the front line of the battle, swords and spears appeared one after another, while some people behind them who had not yet clashed
In the area, arrows from both sides were flying at each other. The crossbowmen, regardless of their arms that were already starting to weaken, fired hard and tried their best to support their comrades in the front.
The neighing of war horses, the shouts of soldiers, and the screams of death were all mixed together, filling everyone's ears and resounding throughout this small area.
Dadanghu watched the battlefield indifferently.
This time four hundred cavalry were sent. Before they rushed to the position, more than a hundred cavalry were shot down by crossbows. Sixty or seventy more cavalry were killed in front of the Han army's rejecting horses, and then they knocked away the Han army's rejecting horses.
, another thirty or forty cavalry were lost, which is equivalent to the loss of more than two hundred cavalry, but now...
The Xianbei cavalry has broken through the Han army's defense line and is gradually pressing inward. Although the remaining less than two hundred cavalry may not be able to completely tear the Han army's formation into pieces, it doesn't matter...
Da Danghu also greatly admired the strength and tenacity of the Han army on the opposite side, but admiration was due to admiration. Anyone who dared to stand in front of his own horses would eventually be eradicated.
Da Danghu made a calculation and found that at most one exchange would be enough to keep the Han army array on this bloody river beach forever.
However, the delay was too long. Dadanghu looked up at the sky and began to engage in battle at noon. It has been almost two hours now. If the enemy formation on the opposite side is not eliminated, the autumn sun will
As the head gradually shortened, it became more difficult to catch up with the fleeing Han army.
"Charge!" Dadanghu watched the Xianbei cavalry in front of him gradually decrease in number in the flesh and blood grinding mill, then he waved his riding whip gently and said, "Two more Centuries!"
The Xianbei cavalry made a roar of unknown meaning, and under the low and whirling sound of horns, two hundred knights began to accelerate and entered the battlefield.
Although the Xianbei cavalry charge did not suffer any crossbow attacks from the Han army this time, the corpses of men and horses scattered on the river beach, in the river bed, and in front of the military formation became obstacles to their speed.
Obstacles, horses' hoofs stepped on the mixture of blood and mud, and they began to slip at every turn. They even accidentally fell to the ground, tripping the cavalry behind them...
This is a line of defense formed by flesh and blood.
The inexplicable accident caused the Xianbei cavalry to be forced to slow down again, and the entire formation seemed to be stuck, jerky and incoherent. At the same time, it also gave Huang Cheng a rare opportunity between the two groups of Xianbei cavalry attacks.
A chance to breathe.
"Mo Daobing! Come forward!"
Huang Cheng still pressed his last card.
Nearly half of the shield bearers and spearmen have been lost, and if the archers and crossbowmen in the rear formation are approached by cavalry, it is simply unimaginable. The only ones who can stand in front are the eighty Mo Dao soldiers.
…
If the number of Mo Daobing could be larger...
Huang Cheng gritted his teeth and had no choice. The requirements of the Mo Dao soldiers were too high and the equipment was too expensive. So far, they have only trained and equipped 120 people, and now most of them are in his own hands.
Huang Cheng raised his head and glanced at the sky. This was his last resort. If reinforcements didn't come, today might be my last day...
History can be assumed, but it also needs to be remembered and respected...
The Xianbei people are not just savages, they are just people who have chosen different evolutionary models in the long history...
Thousands of years have proven that civilizations that rely on a single technology tree are very weak, just like the generations of people on the Mongolian Plateau who have been obsessed with the animal husbandry technology tree...
