When he saw Lu Bujun walking north on the mini map, Chen Cheng already felt a little strange. When Lu Bujun turned around and walked back again, he was even more strange. After thinking for a while, Chen Cheng thought to himself: Could it be Lu Bu?
Are they lost?
Other than that, I couldn't find any other explanation. He himself was used to clicking on the map wherever he went, but others couldn't. There were many things that ordinary people got lost in the mountains and in the wild, and there were also things that happened to armies getting lost.
Quite a few. Li Guang is so famous, doesn't he often get lost? But he is a special case. People who get lost again and again are very rare in the history books.
Gulu has grown to a height of five feet four, and is much faster than other horses. Chen Cheng had to slow down so that the guards and other troops could keep up. After galloping for a long time, the army came to a fork in the road.
Mouth. Chen Cheng looked at the two roads, then at the red dot coming from the north, and loudly ordered:
"Strengthen the team and prepare to engage the enemy!"
Amidst the shouts, the troops spread out to both sides. Because they ran too fast, there were only 300 guards and soldiers beside Chen Cheng, and the other cavalry were still lagging behind. After waiting for a while, a call came from the north.
The sound of horse hooves and smoke rose on the avenue. Chen Cheng estimated that there seemed to be quite a few people.
Wei Ran rode over and said, "Master, look at the smoke and dust. There are quite a few enemy troops. Do you want to get out of the way first?"
Among all the art of war, there is only one thing to say: attack the weak with the strong, that is, at the moment of the battle, make your own strength stronger than the enemy. Of course, the bodyguards are very powerful, and they can win in a head-on confrontation, but why bother?
What? The most labor-saving way is to get out of the way and beat them back.
Chen Cheng thought for a while and felt that what Wei Ran said made sense, but still rejected his proposal. Of course, chasing after each other would save the most effort, but if Lu Bu was let go because of this, it would be too unworthy. Although Lu Bu is defeated now
There are still thousands of soldiers and horses in Chang'an City. In an emergency, it is not difficult to recruit civilians and recruit tens of thousands of people to defend the city.
Chang'an's city defense is stronger than that of Chencang, and it is not an easy task to defeat it. It is easy to get out of the way now, but many more people may die later.
He shook his head and said: "No wait, just kill them here!"
Seeing that Chen Cheng was resolute, Wei Ran stopped admonishing and retreated to the edge of the queue. Chen Cheng looked back and saw that the formation had been adjusted, so he ordered: "Attack!"
The war horse began to move forward, first at a small canter, the speed increased, and then it turned into a fast gallop. The sound of horse hooves in the ears became louder and louder, and the long lance was lowered and aimed at the oncoming enemy.
cavalry.
Lu Bu was returning along the way with his soldiers and horses, preparing to return to the previous fork in the road. The Guanzhong Plain is connected in all directions and can be accessed everywhere, but walking through the woods and passing on the highway are completely different concepts. Horses cannot in the woods.
Running, otherwise it is easy to injure your eyes and horse hooves. Crossing the forest seems to be a shorter distance, but it will take more time.
When they were about to reach a fork in the road, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from ahead. Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the smoke and dust raised by the galloping horses. He identified it carefully and shouted loudly: "There are few of them."
, rush over!"
Lu Bu's army has now been pushed to a dead end. What else can they do if they don't rush over? Kneel down and ask for surrender? Although they are tired and anxious, they are still unwilling to put down their weapons easily and hand over their lives to the enemy.
In the past few days, they had massacred many enemy soldiers who had surrendered, and they were afraid that they would be treated the same way.
The road to the north was opened in the woods and was not very wide. Plus the edge of the woods, only a dozen cavalry could ride side by side at most. Therefore, there were not many cavalry who collided head-on, and there were not many casualties. Lu Bu's army's surprise attack
The cavalry has almost been lost, and the light cavalry in the front row is no match for the Xiliang Dragon Cavalry.
Under the lance, seven or eight Lu Bu Army cavalry were pierced through their armor on the spot, and then screamed and fell off their horses. During the intensive charge, the horses had no room to avoid and bumped into each other. Many horses collided with each other.
The bones in the body shattered, making a crisp sound.
Dozens or hundreds of war horses blocked the road, and the horses behind kicked their hooves hard to slow down. Even so, many horses still bumped into them. The cavalry on the horses were shocked at first,
Then the body flew out. Some people's feet got stuck in the stirrups, and their calves were broken when they fell.
Chen Cheng stabbed an enemy soldier to death. Gulu tried his best to knock away the horse on the opposite side. He continued to move, and knocked away the two horses behind him. Then he exhausted his kinetic energy and stopped. If it weren't for the dense crowd behind him.
The war horses are crowded together, maybe they can directly hit a road.
In the violent impact, Chen Cheng was jolted on horseback. When the world in his eyes stopped shaking violently, he was surrounded by horses crowded together. Some enemies were still sitting on the horses, but most of them fell.
When he reached the ground, Chen Cheng put away his lance, took out his bow and arrow, and shouted: "Dismount and fight on foot!"
In such a narrow place, the road has been blocked, and the horses cannot run at all, so they can only dismount and fight on foot. Although the combat effectiveness of knights and cavalry will be reduced by half after dismounting, the enemy cannot gallop on horseback now.
, then the two sides were even again.
Wei Ran and Zhao Si have also changed their jobs to become "Xiliang Dragon Riders". They wear more than fifty kilograms of armor and carry shields, lances, and a horizontal knife or mace. I heard
Order, they also shouted, then threw away their lances, jumped off their horses and prepared to fight on foot.
Lu Bu did not rush into the first row, so he could clearly see how the cavalry from both sides collided violently. The Xiliang army's cavalry was better equipped and took advantage of the first wave of collision. Lu Bu couldn't help but feel
He was so angry that he thought to himself: "If my armored cavalry is still there, why is this happening?"
Then, he saw Chen Cheng standing independently on horseback.
Shocked, confused, puzzled, and then overjoyed, Lu Bu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Chen Cheng was chasing after him with only three to four hundred men, and was still stuck in such a narrow terrain. He shouted loudly: "Then
That person is Chen Cheng, if we kill him, we will win!"
The soldiers on the side were cheered up after hearing this. Now we have more troops and horses, several times that of the enemy. Can we still win in this situation? The cavalry dismounted one after another and ran towards the woods, preparing to bypass the blockade.
The horses came together to kill the enemy chieftain. Some people on horseback took out their bows and arrows, preparing to shoot the enemy.
Lu Bu's army is in action, and the bodyguards are a step faster and have already formed a battle formation according to the organization. As a standing army, although the bodyguards do not practice every day, they still need to train at least twenty soldiers every month.
Day. Not only should we practice the ability to fight immediately, but we should also train the ability to fight on foot.
They are not simply heavy cavalry, but are used as all-round troops. In addition to lances, they must also be good at an infantry weapon and a long-range weapon. They can shoot arrows or throw javelins, and they can also throw axes.
While Lu Bu's army was still passing through the woods, the guards in the battle formation had already opened their bows and shot down Lu Bu's army who was still on horseback.
The horses were blocked in the middle of the road, and the cavalry on horseback could not move. They were basically no different from targets. Amidst the sound of bowstrings vibrating in twos and threes, more than ten Lu Bu soldiers were shot dead on the spot. Others Lu Bu were preparing to fire their bows on horseback.
Jun quickly jumped off his horse to prevent himself from becoming a target of shooting.
Chen Cheng backed out of the walk, stopped, opened his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at the sparse figures in the woods.
With the sound of bowstrings, a man in the woods was hit by an arrow in the face and fell to the sky, unable to even scream. His comrades were shot dead, but the other soldiers didn't care at all and just ran quickly towards the front. There were trees
The cover, whether it is arrows or javelins, is very difficult to cause damage to them.
Chen Cheng fired his bow continuously and killed more than ten Lu Bu troops, but still could not stop the opponent's advance. Seeing that the enemy was showing signs of outflanking him from both sides, Chen Cheng put away his "Sunset Bow", took out his sword and shield, and said loudly: "Follow me."
I come!"
After that, he took the lead and fought towards the woods on the left. Instead of staying on the road and being flanked by the enemy with superior strength, it was better to rush into the woods and fight in a melee, which could also reduce the opponent's numerical advantage. If Chen Cheng's own troops
To gain an advantage, you must surround the opponent with infantry and then use strong bows and crossbows to fire.
Even if he himself was surrounded by crossbowmen from all directions, he would have to kneel down. If he went into the woods, the advantage of bows and arrows could be reduced by half.
As he was rushing towards the woods on the left, Chen Cheng was suddenly shaken, and a sharp pain came from his right arm. Then, he heard the sound of the bowstring vibrating. The steel armor was also shot through? Although it was not armored steel,
But the hardness is also higher than the previous armor, and the defense will be stronger.
The armor on the Xiliang Dragon Riders weighs fifty kilograms. The steel armor on Chen Cheng's body is made of better and more materials. The whole set of armor weighs sixty kilograms in total. At a distance of thirty steps, even a strong crossbow is difficult to carry.
Breakthrough. He glanced to the right and saw Lu Bu, whose gorgeous armor had been damaged in many places, drew his bow and arrow again and shot at him.
"Hey, do you want to come again?"
Chen Cheng had an arrow stuck in his shoulder, but he turned around and raised his shield as if nothing had happened.
"Dou", the shield shook, and the arrow cluster had already penetrated the steel plate. Chen Cheng put down the shield, sneered at Lu Bu who fired arrows at him across the large group of horses, then turned around and rushed into the woods.
Lu Bu's army had also poured into the woods. The two sides soon encountered each other and began to fight hand to hand. Because there were too many branches and leaves in the woods, it was difficult for the bows and crossbows to exert their power here. The guards put away their bows and arrows.
When they met, they first threw a wave of javelins, and then charged forward.
The Huanshou Dao and the Hengdao cut each other. In this kind of terrain, the Hengdao still has more advantages than the Huanshou Dao. The Hengdao used by the guards is the best of the best, made of the best steel.
Made by the best craftsmen. It may be too exaggerated to cut iron like clay, but in the battle, it cut off Lu Bujun's Huanshou sword more than once.
The Han Dynasty used iron as a weapon to defeat the unprecedentedly powerful Xiongnu Empire. Steel weapons can also take advantage of iron weapons.
