Just as Wang Xuanying hesitated, a cannon shot suddenly sounded in front, and a Tang Army cavalry force of about 500 people quickly circled out from behind a hill and blocked the path of the Flying Tiger Army.
I saw this Tang Cavalry, in a strict formation, as if carved with knives and axes, and all of them were wearing bright armor and riding good horses. Even the war horses were fully armored, and they were truly armed to the teeth!
Xuanjia soldiers!?
Wang Xuanying and Shan Xiongxin looked at each other and almost lost their eyes in shock.
Wasn't Li Shimin leading the Xuanjia soldiers to chase after them? Why did another one appear in front of them?
How big is the scale of this black armor soldier?
Was the Tang Dynasty so wealthy?
Just when the two of them had question marks on their foreheads, an extremely young and handsome boy with a white horse and silver armor rode out from the Tang army's formation.
Behind him, a large flag fluttered fiercely in the morning wind, writing: Li, the Prince of Huaiyang County in the Tang Dynasty!
It is none other than super hunk Lee Do Hyun and his winged cavalry.
Not a Xuanjia soldier!?
Wang Xuanying and Shan Xiongxin reacted, but their joy was fleeting.
Although it was not Xuanjia soldiers who blocked the way, Li Daoxuan was known as the most powerful general in the world, so it was not optimistic to block the way.
Li Daoxuan immediately stood up and took a look at the remnants of Zheng's army that were approaching quickly.
There are still about 3,000 enemies coming, most of them are the elite Flying Tiger Army. There are not many ordinary Zheng Army cavalry left and they are completely exhausted.
The little prince was overjoyed.
Ever since he knew yesterday that he was going to use a trick to ambush Zheng Jun, he had been pestering Li Shimin and Xia Yu to arrange a good job for him.
Unable to defeat this grinder, the two gave Li Daoxuan the task of intercepting.
The little prince was very satisfied.
In the camp, there were more wolves than meat, so it was difficult for him to get any decent credit, but it was different waiting here to wait and see.
He has a good chance of catching one or two big fish.
Immediately, Li Daoxuan's sharp eyes quickly locked onto Wang Xuanying and Shan Xiongxin. Without them, they must be big fish with gorgeous armor.
Especially Wang Xuanying, who is wearing a golden helmet and golden armor, and the label of the fake Prince Zheng is about to come out.
Seeing that the Xuanjia soldiers were approaching behind Zheng Jun, Li Daoxuan did not hesitate and immediately shouted: "Brothers, try our new tactic and charge!"
At the sound of the trumpet, the five hundred winged cavalry had already formed two rows. They immediately began to speed up, and the entire military formation was pressed over neatly like a giant wall.
Shan Xiongxin's eyes flashed fiercely and he kept walking, but there were only a few hundred people. No matter how strong he was, there was nothing to be afraid of. He just had to risk his life to kill them.
But then, something happened that shocked him:
More than a hundred steps away, the hussars quickly took out their powerful crossbows that had already been stretched, and aimed them at Zheng Jun. A wave of arrows rained down from their pockets.
Because the cavalry of the Tang Army were generally not equipped with crossbows, and ordinary cavalry bows could not cause much damage to the Feihu Army.
Therefore, facing this sudden wave of crossbow arrows, the Flying Tiger Army was completely unprepared.
In an instant, a powerful rain of arrows came fiercely, and almost everyone among the dozens of Flying Tigers at the forefront was hit by multiple arrows.
Facing the powerful crossbow, Mingguang Armor was unable to catch it. These dozens of unlucky people instantly became hedgehogs and fell off their horses one after another.
Even if most of the damage caused by the arrows to these people was not fatal, they would still die if they fell off their horses while galloping.
If he took another step back, even if he didn't fall to death, the countless horses' hooves that stepped on him in the chaos would have turned him into a pulp.
Shan Xiongxin and Wang Xuanying rushed to the front, and were also greeted by arrows.
But the two of them were generals anyway, with good skills. They were in a hurry, and even dodged and blocked. Although they broke out in a cold sweat, they narrowly missed being shot.
Use a crossbow?
Isn't this the conventional tactics of the Tang Army's cavalry?
On horseback, Wang Xuanying and Shan Xiongxin looked at each other in astonishment, both confused.
The fighting methods of the Hussars were really unfamiliar to them.
After a wave of arrows was fired, the hussars quickly put away their crossbows. On horseback, winding the crossbows was cumbersome, and they had no time for another round.
So, just wall charge and you're done.
Li Daoxuan, who was in the middle of the human wall, shouted: "Raise the spear! The entire army maintains its formation and is not allowed to advance rashly. Anyone who violates the rules will be killed!"
The winged cavalry are either well-trained elite soldiers, or fierce family soldiers trained by the Li Tang royal family for many years, and their quality is quite good.
Even if it's not as good as the Black Armor Soldiers and the Flying Tiger Army, it's not much different.
Therefore, although the new tactics have just been practiced, and although they are still a bit unfamiliar and hectic, they are still generally neat.
For a moment, the five hundred winged cavalry were like a majestic giant wall, standing up against the shimmering forest, facing the defeated Zheng army dozens of steps away.
what's the situation!?
Wang Xuanying and Shan Xiongxin were once again stunned by the enemy's weirdness.
Throughout the ages, cavalry battles in the East have become skirmishing battles, with basically no formations at all.
The entire army can, at best, maintain a general attack direction.
If temporary adjustments are needed, the general's banner following the general is a signal, and one's own soldiers will automatically follow and move forward.
But what the hell is this row of people standing in front of?
A military parade?
Although they were confused, in the blink of an eye, the winged cavalry had already rushed forward. Wang Xuanying and Shan Xiongxin had no time to think about it and could only fight.
In an instant, the two armies met, and something terrible happened:
Zheng Jun swung his spear to counterattack and fought hard, but whenever the spear came out, the opponent would often greet him with his left, right and right spears at the same time, showing no regard for martial ethics.
Poor Zheng Jun immediately discovered that they could hide from one force, but not the second or third.
Because the formation of the Hussars was too dense, it was like a sardine can, giving the enemy no space or chance to dodge.
So, with only one face to face, dozens of Flying Tigers who were in the front row before the battle were stabbed one after another, and were knocked off their horses amidst screams.
The Hussars, on the other hand, were almost unscathed.
Since the wall charge cannot flexibly change positions, Wang Xuanying and Shan Xiongxin did not face Li Daoxuan by chance.
However, the two of them were also in danger at the same time.
Wang Xuanying, who was unprepared, avoided the first one, blocked the second one, but still could not avoid the third one.
In a panic, Wang Xuanying twisted his waist and abdomen. The third spear of the Tang Army did not hit his lower abdomen, but it still penetrated from his waist:
"flutter!"
No matter how good the bright light armor is, it can't stop Kuai Ma Chongshu's violent thrust.
In an instant, blood burst out, Wang Xuanying let out a shrill scream, and was knocked off his horse by the huge impact.
Although the Tang army was overjoyed to succeed, the disadvantage of the wall charge was that it could not stop, and the entire army must continue to move forward without hesitation.
Anyone who dares to disrupt the military formation is not a fool around with military law.
As a result, the two rows of winged cavalry stepped on Wang Xuanying with their hooves like rain, as if they were stepping on a poor ant.
Shan Xiongxin was very close to Wang Xuanying, but he was too late to rescue him.
The three ferocious spears also hissed at him like poisonous snakes and beasts. Such strange, subtle and cruel tactics also caught him off guard.
At the critical moment, the guy sidestepped one branch and blocked another Zaoyang branch, but the third one seemed inevitable.
However, Shan Xiongxin is worthy of being a fierce warrior with outstanding martial arts skills.
At the last moment, the man stretched out his arms and grabbed the enemy's head just as the third spear stabbed his chest and abdomen.
Immediately, Shan Xiongxin shouted loudly and used great strength to snatch the third branch.
Seize it empty-handed!
According to legend, only Yuchi Gong was good at this rare stunt, but Shan Xiongxin was actually very skilled at it and narrowly saved his own life.
In an instant, with both spears in hand, Shan Xiongxin was like a tiger reincarnated, roaring and thrusting from the left and right, killing several winged cavalry, and in an instant he successfully penetrated the huge wall of the Tang army and eliminated the danger.
