But the Sui cavalry formation was also coming diagonally. They had nowhere to dodge. The Goguryeo horses were frightened, which caused the Goguryeo cavalry formation to become somewhat scattered.
However, at this distance, no one of the opposing cavalry had time to retreat, so they had no choice but to rush forward.
Running rapidly, Wang Junlin's cavalry array began to curve, but the short distance was not enough to affect the integrity of the formation.
Fifty steps apart, the horse's speed increased to its fastest, and the two sides approached at a high speed of about twenty or thirty meters per second. Yuchi Jingde's face turned red, his eyes widened, and he clenched the flag gun with the black triangular flag in his hand.
He aimed his head at the Goguryeo general on the opposite side. This Goguryeo general had a fierce face and ran ahead with a big sword in hand, without any panic.
Until this time, there were still people in the front row of Goguryeo trying to shoot arrows. A wave of light arrows fired from riding bows flew towards them. More than ten Sui soldiers were hit, but only five of them fell off their horses. The short distance was gone in the blink of an eye.
.
"Kill!" Yuchi Jingde and three thousand cavalry roared at the same time.
boom!
The two torrents of horses collided head-on. Countless pieces of broken gun shafts and blades flew around. The sound of breaking and the collision of men and horses continued. The sound of the friction between gun blades and armor made people's teeth sore. The horses that couldn't avoid each other collided with each other, causing their bones to break.
, some horses were knocked into the air, and some fell to the ground with their riders, rolling desperately on the ground.
At the last moment, Yuchi Jingde's horse instinctively wanted to move to the left, but Yuchi Jingde's strength was so great that he clamped his legs and used great force to force the horse to rush forward, roaring with the Goguryeo general.
The sound of hooves criss-crossed, and a huge impact came from his hand. With a scream, the Goguryeo soldier turned backwards and fell off his horse, while Yuchi Jingde's body just shook.
"The first one." Yuchi Jingde whispered, and with a glance from the corner of his eyes, there was an empty space next to him. The trumpeter had been knocked to an unknown place, and several Goguryeo cavalry passed before his eyes, including a Goguryeo general.
A shout passed in front of his eyes. Yuchi Jingde just relied on instinct to dodge. The Goguryeo soldier had no chance to attack again. Yuchi Jingde stabbed the Goguryeo general with a spear like lightning.
Get off the horse.
The dense formation of Wang Junlin's cavalry took the advantage. More than 300 Goguryeo troops in the front row were shot down in the first round of confrontation. More than 200 of them were shot down. The remaining Goguryeo cavalry passed through the Sui army's front row and did not wait.
They took a breath, and the second row of Sui cavalry wall rushed towards them with dense boring palladium. The sharp center and horizontal thorns were like the scythe of death under the acceleration of the horses.
Most of these Goguryeo cavalrymen had their weapons broken or could not retract them in time, leaving them almost powerless to fight back. The dense and straight array on the opposite side gave them no room to avoid to the side.
Another round of overwhelming duel, the Goguryeo cavalry once again suffered heavy losses. After the third and fourth columns of Sui cavalry passed through, the Goguryeo formation was in chaos. The place where the collision occurred was piled with dead and injured human and horse body parts, and the interval between two rounds was only small.
In the blink of an eye, Goguryeo's subsequent cavalry still had no chance or time to adjust their direction. They were slowing down one after another, and the two rows of saber cavalry behind them rushed forward again.
They still maintained their formation, roaring in with thick-backed sabers in their hands. By using the power of the hedging force, they did not need to swing hard. They only had to hold the handle of the saber and wave it lightly when they passed by. This kind of sword was far sharper than ordinary swords.
The saber can bring flying limbs and a shower of blood. Even if there are piles of Goguryeo cavalry in front of them, they can only bump into them. Several riders are lifted high by the strong inertia and then smashed into the ground.
Among the Goguryeo cavalry behind.
The Goguryeo cavalry formation was relatively thick. For these concentrated places, Wang Junlin's cavalry could not avoid the dense formation and could only rush forward. Even if they killed the enemy in the front row, they would still suffer from the opponent's rear row.
Attack, or collide with the opponent's cavalry who can't dodge either.
The Goguryeo cavalry in the back row waved their weapons to attack the Sui army rushing past, but the Sui army did not slow down and continued to run forward. In the blink of an eye, they passed by. The Goguryeo cavalry in the thick part of the formation was collided and their formation was in chaos.
The tumbling men and horses blocked their route and they were forced to slow down their horses, making them almost useless in the engagement.
Wang Junlin's cavalry tactics, three rounds of attacks were like a violent storm, violently beating up the Goguryeo line with holes, leaving corpses and wounded everywhere. The remaining Sui army's cavalry array did not stop at all, as if they suddenly surged up.
The frenzy faded away in an instant, and they continued to move forward. After a hundred steps, they slowly slowed down and started to form their formation again.
After these three rounds, the Goguryeo cavalry lost more than 600 people. The line was in pieces. Everyone was in panic and completely lost their command. However, the attack was not over yet. What greeted them was the roar of a series of fast crossbows.
The two rows of cavalry and the reconnaissance cavalry from the special operations brigade immediately followed up. They roared past in groups of three and five, specifically attacking the lone Goguryeo cavalry. Each of them had a rapid-fire crossbow, and they were also not able to compete with the Goguryeo soldiers.
Fight, and quickly evacuate after firing while running.
The place where the collision had just occurred was littered with corpses. The injured soldiers and horses on both sides were struggling and screaming desperately. The two sides were stacked on top of each other in the place where the collision was concentrated. Some of the fallen cavalry from both sides came to their senses and pulled out daggers or picked up nearby fallen weapons.
They fought fiercely with each other, and even some of the injured people struggled with each other.
The general who commanded this Goguryeo cavalry was an acquaintance of Wang Junlin. He was once the general of Yuan Taizuo's family, Jin Yibei. He was transferred here to help Yuan Gaisuwen. Although he was not Yuchi Jingde's opponent, he also had a record of failure.
At this time, his left arm was cut off due to his strength. Faced with the inexplicable fear of this Sui cavalry, it was the first time for him to encounter this cavalry style of almost exchanging lives for lives.
Goguryeo's scattered cavalry were fighting with those special warfare reconnaissance cavalry. Jin Yibei glanced ahead. The dense infantry phalanx was advancing here. When he saw the strict line of infantry on the opposite side, he felt a chill in his heart for some reason.
At this time, he could no longer think too much. Jin Yibei shouted loudly to greet the scattered tribesmen and asked them to gather quickly. He knew very well that he was defeated too quickly and the infantry behind him had no time to come up, so he prepared to retreat, but
The harassment of the special warfare reconnaissance cavalry kept the Goguryeo cavalry busy dealing with it. The rapid crossbows continuously shot the Goguryeo cavalry off their horses, leaving the Goguryeo cavalry in a state of confusion.
