After receiving the order, Cheng Wuting and Yuchi Baolin immediately rushed out from both ends of the Wugang chariot formation with 1,500 cavalry.
Also rushing out were two thousand Persian cavalry. These two thousand Persian elites were equipped with the same weapons and armor as the Tang army, and their combat power was not much different from that of the Tang army.
All the elites of the coalition forces are here!
Those who crossed the river and reached the other side were all Persians who had arrived a few days ago. Most of them had put on the clothes of the Tang army, so the cannibals were far away and could not be noticed at all.
At the same time, the Tang army immediately opened the lock on the iron chain, opened the martial arts chariot, and let the Tang army's crossbowmen, artillery, and trebuchets come forward one after another.
The 5,000 coalition cavalry faced the 10,000 Ottoman cavalry. Although the number was twice the number,
However, due to the equipment gap, the Ottoman army of 10,000 people was no match.
In addition, there are crossbows, trebuchets, and artillery fire support at the rear.
Masters simply cannot resist it.
Osman himself also knew that his 10,000 cavalry were no match.
So when he saw Tang Jun rushing out, he immediately turned around and ran north.
The Tang army ignored the escaping Osman and headed west along the way they came.
Su Chen's target was not Osman and his cavalry, but the infantry and baggage left halfway by Osman.
But what happened was counterproductive. Osman ran north for a while, then turned back!
Su Chen had no choice but to hurriedly ask the cavalry heading west to come back to protect his baggage at the rear.
"Hey! Osman responded very quickly!"
Su Chen sighed.
Rapupasu smiled and said: "Commander! Let's just keep an eye on Osman. I estimate that the two generals Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui will gain a lot."
When he met with the 10,000 Persians who came the day before yesterday, Su Chen had already asked Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui to quietly leave the camp with 1,500 cavalrymen at night.
Because when the scouts of the Dashi people met and fought with the scouts of the Tang army, they were no match for the Tang army. Therefore, the scouts of the Dashi army ran away when they met the scouts of the Tang army.
Therefore, the Great Eater's control over the explosions on the ground is far inferior to that of the Tang Army. In addition, the Tang Army also has hot air balloons in the sky.
In this case, it is okay to inquire about the movements of Su Chen's army.
Da Shiren didn't even notice Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui sneaking out at night.
Osman was in a hurry to catch up with Su Chen, so he left his infantry and baggage troops behind.
Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui had already gone around to the rear of the cannibal, specifically targeting the artillery and trebuchets at the rear.
Seeing that the Tang army's cavalry suddenly came out from behind, Da Shiren hurriedly organized infantry resistance and went to ask Osman for help.
However, in a hurry, it was difficult for the Dashi infantry to form a thick formation to resist the oncoming Tang army's cavalry.
Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui rushed into the large food and baggage troops, chopping melons and vegetables along the way.
Those baggage troops had almost no resistance in front of the cavalry rushing to them, and they were completely unilaterally massacred!
However, the mission of Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui was not to massacre a few Daesh soldiers who had no power to resist. Their targets were the Havoc's artillery and catapults.
When the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty saw the man-eating trebuchet, they threw a gunpowder bomb at it and exploded into pieces.
When they saw the man-eating cannon, they stuffed the grenade-like thing that Su Chen gave them into the barrel.
It was a simple thermite incendiary bomb made by Su Chen. The raw materials were exchanged from the system mall. Simple aluminum powder and iron oxide were not very expensive.
I saw the gunpowder and kerosene shipped by the big cannibal, which were far away, and several rockets were fired at them and detonated.
The cannibal's baggage troops suddenly burst into flames, and violent explosions continued.
"Look fucking clear!"
"Stay away from those cars, don't get killed!"
Liu Jingren's roar subsided, and a car more than a hundred meters ahead made a loud noise.
The explosive gunpowder directly blew the car to pieces, and the artillery shells on the car were blown dozens of meters away.
"Brewed! Fortunately, the cannibal put the gunpowder shells on a cart,"
"Otherwise, if a whole cart of gunpowder explodes, we will all die!"
Xue Rengui put away his bow and arrows and said with lingering fear.
Liu Jingren shook his stunned head and shouted: "Hurry up, the cannibal cavalry will be back soon!"
"Destroy the artillery first, then the catapults!"
It's better not to worry about gunpowder and kerosene for now. If you don't get it right, you'll kill yourself!
By the time Muvisa came back with 5,000 cavalry, the Cannibal's artillery was basically gone, and at least 60% of its catapults were gone.
When they saw the big cannibal cavalry coming back, Xue Rengui and Liu Jingren roared and ran away with their men!
Frustrated, Muwesa chased for a while and then stopped.
If there is an ambush by the Tang army ahead, wouldn't the five thousand of them be gone?
Since the Tang people could deceive their scouts and get to the rear of their army, it would be easy to set up an ambush in front.
Thinking of this, Muwesa turned back with 5,000 men and horses, gathered the remaining defeated soldiers, and slowly withdrew back!
Of course Su Chen didn't set up another ambush. Where did he get so many manpower?
Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui ran south for a while, but when they saw that the cannibals could not catch up, they turned east and went to join the army.
Su Chen is being stared at by Osman. He will run away if you approach him. If you want to go west to chase the Dashi infantry, he will come back to distract you.
Su Chen was helpless and could only lead the army to slowly move north, while Osman slowly retreated in front.
Osman's purpose was to drag Su Chen's army and buy time for his infantry and baggage troops to evacuate.
However, Osman still didn't know that his baggage troops were basically gone, and the infantry was not damaged much.
After Liu Jingren and Xue Rengui broke through the infantry interception next to the baggage troops, they were busy destroying the artillery and had no time to care about the infantry.
Seeing the fierceness of the Tang army's cavalry, Dashi's infantry did not dare to take the initiative to approach. In this way, both sides had a tacit understanding and everything was fine.
Just when Osman felt that the delay was almost up and was about to prepare to evacuate,
More than ten cavalrymen came running from the northeast.
"Your Majesty! The pontoon bridge was blown up by the enemy!"
A group of cavalry ran to Osman and reported.
"What?"
Osman almost spit out a mouthful of blood!
"I didn't see the Tang army going north either. Why was the pontoon bridge bombed?"
"Your Majesty! It was the Persians who did it!"
Suchen and Rapupasu also saw a group of cavalry running in front of Osman from the northeast.
Holding the telescope, Su Chen said to Lapu Pasu: "I hope the manpower you arranged has succeeded!"
Rappasu also observed the Ottoman army with a telescope and replied casually:
"At this time, suddenly several people came from the northeast to see Osman,"
"It should have been successful!"
Osman's eyes were red with anger at this time:
"The Persians didn't go north either. How did they blow up the pontoon bridge?"
