It was the first year of Zhongdatong, Emperor Wu of the Southern Liang Dynasty, and the second year of Yong'an, Emperor Xiaozhuang of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Daliang City.
This Daliang City was later rebuilt by the Western Han Dynasty on the ruins of the original Daliang City during the Warring States Period, and it is still used as a symbol of the Central Plains.
From the Western Han Dynasty to the Northern Wei Dynasty, one dynasty after another disappeared in history in an instant, and one Liang king after another experienced birth, growth and death here. Things changed as if they were watching a lantern, but only this Daliang City remained alone.
Standing in this wilderness.
The dilapidated city wall is full of traces of erosion from swords and axes, and the luxuriant grass swaying in the wind tells the story of the endless wars in the Central Plains over the years.
This is Daliang, and this is Central Plains.
In June and July, although the sun has already set, you can still feel the rolling heat in the wind blowing against your face. The flag of Wang Yuantianmu, the Shangdang of the Wei Dynasty, was lazily fluttering in the wind, making it difficult for the flag to be held.
The taxi soldiers even suspected that if the wind were lighter, the flag would not be able to fly at all and would have to be placed on the flagpole.
In the south of Daliang City, 40,000 troops were lined up neatly, and thousands of cavalry mobilized their horses to patrol the perimeter in circles.
Several banner generals and Yu Lin Zhonglang stood beside Yuan Tianmu with slightly frowning, all their eyes fell on the Shangdang King. Yuan Tianmu was far from being called a suitable general, but looking at it now
In the Northern Wei Dynasty, the only army that could be used was the 40,000 troops beside the Shangdang King, and the only general that could be used was the Shangdang Prince.
There are no troops to deploy in the country and no generals to use in the court. Everyone knows what this is a sign. Even if that unpredictable guy doesn't show up, I'm afraid the Wei Dynasty won't be able to sustain it for long. But even so, everyone
I don't want to be that guy's dead soul and become a part of his countless glory.
Just when the generals around Yuan Tianmu were frightened, there were billowing smoke and dust rising between the sky and the earth. For more than half a month, the sun was shining brightly, which made the earth very dry. Once the war horses ran, they would inevitably stir.
Rolling smoke and dust.
The 40,000-strong army fell silent at this moment.
The soldiers of the Wei army who had been waiting outside Daliang City for three or four hours knew very well who was coming. In the entire Central Plains, except for a team at Hulao Pass, all the other forces of the Wei army were concentrated here. A huge dynasty.
, only the last 40,000 were left, so it could not be any cavalry coming to join the main force.
Those who come are not guests.
"Report!" The sentry rider rushed down from the hillside not far away, but everyone already understood it without him shouting.
Holding the sword and gun tightly, a famous soldier stood up in response to the generals' orders. The palms of each of their hands were sweaty.
The sentry rider rushed to Yuan Tianmu and said a few words hurriedly. Yuan Tianmu nodded, suddenly jumped out of the horse, and raised the golden sword in his hand: "Good sons of the Wei Dynasty, these ungrateful southern barbarians
, you actually have the guts to provoke me, Wei Guowei, to tell me what we should do?!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Forty thousand soldiers shouted loudly at the same time. Although they knew who their opponent was and how strong they were, at this time everyone was suppressing their faces and shouting loudly at the top of their lungs. It was as if the waves were beating against the city wall.
, the shouts beating across the wilderness are the only support they can find now.
"Yes, the military spirit can be used." Yuan Tianmu said with a smile, quite satisfied.
But one of the Habayashi lieutenants beside him could only squeeze out a bitter smile on his face.
As a general, you can see that the military morale has actually been irreparably broken in the previous battles, but only this Shangdang King, who is optimistic by nature or does not know how to fight at all, can
There will be such emotion.
These soldiers responded to him loudly, just to cover up the fear deep in their hearts. Their hands were still shaking involuntarily, and some even had their legs tucked in. Anyone who had fought in the war knew very well that this was obviously a sign of shame.
crotch.
Yu Lin Zhonglang subconsciously raised his head slightly and looked at Yuan Tianmu.
Perhaps this Shangdang King is the only one who still has the courage among the 40,000-strong army.
The sound of horse hooves shattered the smoke, and figures appeared on the horizon not far away. Flags with black characters on a white background danced as the horses galloped. All the cavalry were wrapped in white robes, and they held the horses in their hands.
Flat, with a pair of eyes facing forward.
From the moment they appeared on the horizon, they lined up neatly, like a white square moving forward. It seemed that they didn't mind that the enemy could easily count their numbers, nor did they mind that the enemy in front was so dark.
Six or seven times his own.
They just moved forward silently, and from beginning to end there was only the sound of horse hooves between heaven and earth.
There were seven thousand people counted horizontally and seven thousand people counted vertically. From Huainan all the way to Luoyang and then to Daliang, their number was never large or small. However, the enemies in front were like this again and again.
The ice and snow melted before the cavalry assault.
There were even rumors in the army that these barbarians from the south were holding will-o'-the-wisps from the sky, and whoever they touched would die.
General Yu Linzhonglang is a person who has read books and does not believe this statement, but if he is asked to explain why this team of only 7,000 people can sweep all the way from Huainan and be invincible, all the way to the foot of Daliang City, he can't say it.
Clearly, I could only watch nervously like everyone else.
Watch and wait for these people to continue their miracle.
The cavalry formation was getting closer and closer.
"Cavalry attack!" Yuan Tianmu ordered loudly, with unconcealable excitement in his voice.
Let yourself completely eliminate these demons that others cannot resist!
The Wei cavalry on the left and right wings roared out. These warriors from the north did not mind how powerful and terrifying their opponents were. What they cared more about was how many people they could kill.
"Kill!" the leading general shouted loudly, urging the horses to move.
"Kill!" Countless cavalrymen shouted at the top of their lungs in different languages of various ethnic groups.
The oncoming cavalry did not change at all, and still rode forward without hesitation, aiming directly at Yuan Tianmu's army directly in front. Yuan Tianmu was slightly stunned, if these white-robed cavalry did not change.
, then they will be caught by two Wei army cavalry soon, and then completely dissipate on this land.
"Disperse!" A loud shout finally came from among the seven thousand cavalry approaching rapidly.
This was the only word Yuan Tianmu could hear clearly, and it was also the only word spoken by the guy commanding the cavalry.
The seven thousand cavalry dispersed flexibly to the left and right, roaring like a violent dragon to meet the Wei cavalry in front of them. However, there were only 4,000 white-robed cavalry divided into two wings. They galloped flexibly across the field, surrounding them.
As the Wei cavalry continued to circle, facing the enemy who suddenly divided their forces, the Wei cavalry was obviously surprised and turned their horses one after another.
The two sides chased each other in the wilderness, biting each other's flanks and back roads, but because they were both good at horseback riding, no one could take advantage for a while.
However, the generals of the Chinese army, since Yuan Tianmu surrendered, all saw the clues at this moment. The four thousand white-robed cavalry and the tens of thousands of Wei cavalry who were separated were not looking for the remaining cavalry to cut and kill these enemies.
Opportunity, but to contain.
Simple containment, perfect containment!
The other three thousand white-robed cavalry had already rushed to a distance of less than 200 feet from the Wei army's forward!
"Quick, shoot the arrow!" Yuan Tianmu shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty, you can't. Our cavalry is also within the range of the arrows!" A general of Yulin Zhonglang said anxiously, "If this arrow hits, more than half of the tens of thousands of cavalry will have to answer!"
Yuan Tianmu was stunned for a moment. It was indeed true. The four thousand cavalry that had been sent out led the Wei army's cavalry to keep moving towards this side, and unknowingly they entered the range of the Wei army's arrows. If they fired arrows at this time, their own family would definitely
Many people will die in battle.
These cavalry are the elites of the Xianbei and other grassland races, while most of the crossbowmen are humble Han people. Yuan Tianmu directly rejected the possibility of letting the Han people shoot the Xianbei cavalry with their own hands. This is not a strong man cutting off his wrist;
Overthrowing the entire ruling foundation of the Wei Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, shoot the arrow. If you don't shoot, these lunatics will rush over!" The general on the other side galloped his horse forward, "Your Majesty!"
Yuan Tianmu breathed out softly and shouted in a deep voice: "The front army will fight!"
"Your Majesty!" The general's voice was hoarse, but Yuan Tianmu was indifferent this time.
Even without firing arrows, Yuan Tianmu is still very confident that 10,000 front troops plus 5,000 middle troops can resist these madmen. After all, the opponent only has 3,000 cavalry, and the force he currently has is ten times theirs.
times.
"Wind!" This was the second command heard by everyone among the madmen, and it was still only one word. And the moment the word fell to the ground, all the cavalrymen drew out the short crossbows on their saddles at the same time, raised their bows and nocked arrows,
Done in one go!
Yuan Tianmu's pupils shrank suddenly, and the hearts of countless generals were beating rapidly!
So fast, as fast as a strong wind blowing in the face. The dense arrows accurately pierced the chests of the second row of soldiers. It seemed that the tightly blocked shields in the front row had no effect at all. The people in the second row fell down.
, more arrows flew towards the third row.
"Raise your shield and block the top of your head!" The deputy generals and captains ordered in a panic.
However, it was too late, because when the Wei soldiers, who had been completely disrupted by the arrows, panicked and wanted to fight back, the first cavalry had already rushed in front of the shield, and the horse's hooves stepped heavily on the shield. The soldiers behind the shield were
With this step, blood spurted out from his mouth and nose.
A gap opened, and countless gaps opened, and blood spattered on the white robe, echoing the dust stained on it.
Like flowers blooming in the dust, bright and eye-catching.
A white-robed cavalryman had a solemn look on his face and tried his best to move his horse. If the God of Death had to find an image to portray in the human world, I am afraid these cavalrymen would be the best choice.
"They are monsters, they are devils, run!" I don't know who shouted first. The dark crowd was completely confused at this moment. Ma Shan, who was very close at hand, seemed to be chasing his own footsteps. Those who were sitting high up
The white-robed god of death on horseback seems to be able to take his own life with just a nod.
The three thousand cavalrymen did not pause at all. They continued to divide into trickles, and then merged again into a roaring and rolling tide. Everything fell apart without any pause before their sharp horses.
Yuan Tianmu's face was pale and he held the reins of his horse tightly. The tens of thousands of forwards did not even last for a quarter of an hour before they collapsed in the attack of these three thousand cavalry.
The momentum is like a broken bamboo, as it should be.
If the elite forwards are like this, what will happen if they are replaced by their own five thousand Chinese army?
"Meet the enemy, meet the enemy!" Yuan Tianmu looked at the chaotic figures in front and shouted anxiously. He had no other choice and had to block it.
However, no one moved forward. A famous soldier was holding a spear, but his steps were trembling and he was retreating. The flag, which was unable to waver in the wind, was completely attached to the flagpole at this moment, as if the last trace of spiritual strength had been drained away.
The first cavalryman has already rushed out of the crowd, covered in blood, like a phoenix reborn from nirvana, proudly roaring at the enemy, roaring at the enemy!
"Broken!" Another loud shout came from the three thousand cavalrymen who were roaring towards them.
This voice seemed to have an unknown magic power. As long as one word he said, it would become the reality of the next moment. Three thousand cavalry gathered into sharp spearheads and pierced into the middle of the Wei army. One by one,
The horses stabbed out, retracted, and thrust out again, blood kept splattering, and Wei soldiers kept falling. The huge array of soldiers continued to collapse to both sides in the thrusts of the cavalry, like a high platform made of mud and sand, floating in the tide.
It collapsed directly under the slap.
The defeat was so unexpected, the defeat was so clean and tidy.
At this moment, Yuan Tianmu finally couldn't bear it any longer and took the lead in turning his horse's head and running back. The personal entourage of the Chinese army and the accompanying generals were also panicking.
These people are really Yaksha devils reborn from the eighteenth level of hell.
Wherever they go, there is only defeat and death!
The white-robed cavalry spread out to both sides, chasing the chaotic Wei army, and a general wearing silver armor rode out. In the bloody setting sun, the horse in his hand lay horizontally, reined in the horse, and then
Standing like this, motionless.
Above his head, a large flag with the word "Chen" in black letters on a white background was flying. At this moment, at this moment, he was the king of the world.
Yuan Tianmu, who was running away in a hurry, looked back subconsciously and happened to see the general emerging from the crowd. The moment he saw him, Yuan Tianmu already understood who he was.
Such an opponent is destined to be his lifelong nightmare, as well as the nightmare of the entire Wei Dynasty.
The wind blew in his face, and Yuan Tianmu twitched his horses in panic. The entire Wei army had completely collapsed, and 40,000 people were trying to escape while being chased by 7,000 people. At this time, Yuan Tianmu suddenly remembered a nursery rhyme that had been circulating in Luoyang City.
, I used to sneer at it, but now I understand that this is the fact.
A cruel fact that has to be accepted.
The song goes: Great generals and famous teachers should not keep themselves in prison; thousands of troops and horses should avoid their white robes.
Looking back, Yuan Tianmu just ran away desperately, no longer caring about anything behind his head. The sky above his head was blood red. Yuan Tianmu knew very well that it was not the sunset, but the blood of the Wei soldiers that dyed the sky like this.
color.
Because only blood can be so red, people can feel the strong smell of blood at a glance.
Just like all the glory this year belongs to Chen Qingzhi and his 7,000 white-robed troops.
