In just one breath, the war horse had already rushed far away. Chen Cheng glanced at the damaged part of his left arm armor. The blow just now was so violent that even the thick arm armor was pierced. He wore
The chain armor inside has no sleeves and can only add an extra layer of protection to the body.
Therefore, the protection of the vital parts of his body is better than elsewhere. The only weak point in his body is his face. When he was in Yinchuan, a fully enclosed helmet was made, with only a few gaps at the eyes.
In that case, the weakness of the front door will not exist, but it will bring about the problem of poor vision.
Fighting on foot is okay, since he only needs to control the position within a radius of more than ten meters anyway. Fighting on horseback still requires a better field of vision. Therefore, although there is a thick fully enclosed helmet in the "inventory", he rarely
When I take it out for use, I still use a traditional helmet.
The skill "Iron Bone" can reduce some damage and increase two points of health every time it is upgraded. It is not very useful in the early stage. The effect will not be apparent until the points are full and the effects are superimposed.
But what's more important is the BUFF of "reducing damage taken by three-quarters", which allows him to continue fighting even though he is often shot like a hedgehog.
Of course, the double armor on his body is the more important reason. If he goes into battle shirtless and is charged by a lance, he should kneel down.
Chen Cheng turned around, preparing to simmer Zhang Liao and Lu Bu, whom he had just met. Although these two people are both famous figures in history, since they are on the battlefield, there is nothing to say. Life and death are just fate. However,
, he had just rushed too fast and too far, and his back had been cut off by the reflected enemy troops.
In front of him, there were also many Han cavalry who took advantage of the large number of people and rushed towards him. He saw that if he didn't move away, he would be surrounded on all sides, even though he was already able to skillfully use weapons like Fangtian Painted Halberd.
, and did not dare to be heavily surrounded, so they could only ride towards the edge and find their own soldiers and horses to join together.
"Swish, swish, swish," the Han army on horseback raised their crossbows and pointed toward the powerful enemy not far away. The armored officer shouted: "Don't be afraid! He is only one person!"
He said not to be afraid, but in fact he himself was trembling slightly. The more something is lacking, the more he wants to advocate something. Just like when society pays more attention to "rituals", it means that the current situation is the collapse of etiquette and music.
Bad times.
Chen Cheng rode away at the right time, leaving the crossbow bolts in the sky behind. The horse was galloping under his crotch, but his majestic body suddenly shook slightly. He reached out to the side and shot a crossbow into the muscle of his left leg.
The arrow was drawn out. Fang Tian's painted halberd was indeed very powerful, but it could not be equipped with a shield. It was very effective against miscellaneous soldiers and mobs, but it would have the problem of insufficient protection against elite troops.
He rode away quickly on his horse, and got back into the smoke and dust that filled the sky. There were enemies in front, behind, and on the left and right. Chen Cheng slashed and killed nearby enemies while moving closer to his own soldiers and horses in a more orderly formation. There was only one person in the smoke and dust.
Being able to clearly see people within ten meters, a Han Army armored cavalry bumped into him. As soon as he saw his appearance clearly, he showed a shocked expression, and a square-shaped painted halberd was already whistling and he looked back at him.
The Han cavalryman was also considered to be highly skilled in martial arts. In an instant, he had already raised the shield in his hand and blocked it in front of his body.
"Crack", the wooden shield shattered, and the twigs on the halberd hit his armor, immediately bringing up many armor leaf fragments. The two sides separated as soon as they joined, and the Han army's armored cavalry rushed out far away, and then looked down
, and saw a long gap cut open in the armor on the chest, revealing the dark and muscular body inside.
He stretched out his hand and touched it. Apart from some flesh wounds, there were no other problems. He was stunned at first, and then became frightened. He looked up and looked around, and there were sounds of shouting and fighting everywhere, which were like those of demons.
The enemy has disappeared.
After struggling again to kill a group of Han army's light cavalry, Chen Cheng finally fought his way back to the bodyguards. After missing his lord, Wei Ran was hesitating in which direction to launch an assault. When he saw Chen Cheng, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and shouted
Said: "Lord!"
Chen Cheng took a look and saw that there were only sixty cavalry left in the bodyguards following Wei Ran. Even the deputy commander Zhao Si was missing. The others were scattered to unknown places. Although he could see the enemy
and the location of friendly forces, but cannot accurately tell who everyone is.
Although there is still a melee here, because two of Han Sui's army's camps were burned down one after another, the morale of the Xiliang army has now dropped. Although the fire is invisible in broad daylight, the dozen or so billowing black
The thick smoke was visible to everyone.
Wei Ran said loudly: "Lord, what should we do now?"
Chen Cheng raised his halberd, pointed to the right and said, "Follow me!"
Dozens of bodyguards followed Chen Cheng, fighting out of a cloud of smoke and dust, and then into another cloud of smoke and dust. Chen Cheng led these men and continued to move closer to the friendly forces, and stepped forward when encountering enemy troops along the way.
The battle was fierce and chaotic for a long time, and more than a hundred people were killed. The bodyguards also lost seven people, and they finally reached the vicinity of the Flying Bear Cavalry.
The Flying Bear Cavalry has always been trained according to the method of assault cavalry. They use long spears, shields and horizontal knives for close combat, and long-range attacks rely on throwing spears. Only a small number of officers with the team rate and above can lead them.
Equipped with bows and arrows, they are the strongest assault cavalry of this era when charging in formation. When fighting in melee, the Flying Bear Hussars are not inferior to any elite cavalry.
The only problem is that they have too few people. Even if they have an exchange ratio of one to three, it doesn't make much sense in this melee of tens of thousands of people. Chen Cheng rode forward and Liang Xing
Hearing the sound of horse hooves behind him, he twisted his waist to stab without thinking. Seeing that it was Chen Cheng, he quickly put down his lance and shouted: "Lord!"
Chen Cheng asked loudly: "Where is the general's flag?"
Liang Xing was stunned and said: "It was lost in the melee just now."
"How many more people do you have under your command?"
"There are four hundred more riders."
Seeing Chen Cheng's face darken, Liang Xing quickly explained: "I asked them to attack in batches with either fifty or one hundred cavalry, so as to create continuous pressure on the enemy."
Chen Cheng's face brightened a little, and he thought to himself: Liang Xing is a good soldier. He said to Liang Xing: "Blow the rally call and tell the cavalry to move closer here!"
The powerful horn sounded, conveying different messages through length and length. After hearing this, the surrounding cavalry got out of the fighting state one after another, and then rushed here. Seeing the retreat of the Flying Bear Cavalry, some Han cavalry
If you want to pursue them, you might as well throw javelins at them with a roar. The leading cavalrymen and horses were nailed to the ground. Seeing that the thieves were so ferocious and that there was no general to direct them, the cavalrymen on the right reined in their horses and stopped temporarily.
pursuit.
It didn't take long for several teams of flying bear hussars to arrive under the leadership of officers at all levels. Chen Cheng made a rough calculation, and there were about 700 cavalry. Although some cavalry had not returned, he could not wait for everyone to arrive.
Back. There are still one or two thousand Qiang and Hu cavalry on the battlefield fighting with the Han army. However, those cavalry are not familiar with the bugles of the Liangzhou army. It is not impossible to assemble them, but it will also take a long time.
time.
For those rangers, they only need to understand the two commands of attack and retreat. At other times, it is up to the soldiers on the front line to judge what to do. Whether to attack, detour, or
Retreat? In this era, combat experience and battlefield intuition are often more important than familiarity with the art of war.
There are only 4,000 troops in the camp. The strong combat power and strong bows and crossbows of the trapped camp can sustain it for a long time, but if the time goes on, a lot of troops will be lost.
Huangfu Song's army numbered tens of thousands, and they were all well-trained elites with strong armor and powerful soldiers. Regardless of casualties, it was still possible to break through the camp on the edge of Changpo Plain. As long as an army is willing to bleed, it will eventually be able to advance.
.The Han army attacked so fiercely that Chen Cheng was not willing to gamble on whether Huangfu Song had enough determination.
After a hasty gathering, Chen Cheng shouted to the people around him: "Follow me!"
The sound of horse hooves sounded again. This time, Chen Cheng did not gallop at full speed, but controlled the speed of his horse to keep in line with the cavalry beside him. The direction where the halberd was pointing was exactly where Lu Bu and Zhang Liao had been seen before.
He actually thought about whether he should take the opportunity to kill from here and directly attack Huangfu Song's central army. But he had just seen the infantry and cavalry waiting around Huangfu Song, so he threw this idea behind him.
Of course it is good to kill Huangfu Song, but once you rush in, you may not be able to get out.
Under the raised battle flag on the right wing, Huangfu Song looked at the battle ahead calmly and even indifferently. Each infantry phalanx had about five or six hundred people, which was exactly the strength of a troop. The generals on the front line formed phalanxes one after another.
They were mobilized and continued to engage in a brutal war of attrition with the defenders.
An infantry phalanx was crippled, so it was withdrawn for repairs, and another phalanx was sent up. Although the Xiliang Army camp at the foot of the Changpo Plain was strong, it was not too big. Two phalanxes were used each time.
An attack with only a small number of troops is enough. No matter how many people are deployed, it will not be able to attack and will only become a target for the defenders.
The arrows were fired round after round, and the Han army's archers had suffered heavy casualties. No less than two hundred wounded were dragged down, and more people were shot to death under the camp wall. The crossbowmen all suffered such casualties.
If there are more infantry casualties, the casualties of the infantry will only be more severe. The five infantry phalanxes of the former army have been disorganized. They are no longer organized according to the original formation, but under the command of the frontline officers, the same formations are formed.
The troops were organized together and launched successive attacks on the camp wall.
The several phalanxes in front had already been attacked for one round and were gradually withdrawn for repairs. The ordering soldiers ran back on horseback and shouted to the two infantry phalanxes on standby: "General Li has an order, the Chinese army is on the left and right."
Liang Qu immediately stepped forward to take over the attack!"
The generals in the phalanx immediately stood up and responded in unison: "No!"
At the officers' orders, the soldiers sitting on the ground stood up and rushed towards the enemy's camp quickly.
