"Teacher, is this formation of the Xiliang army intended to use infantry to resist cavalry attacks?"
The students watched this war on the edge of the grassland and felt confused when they saw the Xiliang army formation in the distance.
Because of the distance, they could not see the armor of the Xiliang troops, but could only see the general formation.
The teacher took a look and placed the formation on the simple sand table that had just been set up: "It looks like it is, but Li Xiang must have his own ideas when he puts up the formation like this. We can just watch from the side!"
"Next, everyone, take out paper and pen and write down everything you see and hear on the battlefield!"
...
Boom, boom, boom!
The Xiliang soldiers were constantly changing their formations amidst the sound of war drums. The large formation they set up was within the attack range of the warships on the lake. However, as long as the muzzles of the guns were raised higher, they would not be able to attack the troops they deployed.
This was a surprise given by Li Xiang to the Liangzhou army.
Since the other party is coming to fight, Prime Minister Li must give them a deep memory!
Li Xiang, who was at the rear of the Chinese army, was only responsible for the general layout of the army and the command of the Xiliang cavalry. The rest was left to the various ministers to freely change formations and fight within the overall plan.
The army on the Liangzhou side was not slow in moving. After receiving the movement of the Xiliang army, the Liangzhou army quickly rushed out of the camp. However, when they saw the huge infantry target on the Xiliang side, they did not see the cavalry.
"Brother Ma, has Prime Minister Li of Xiliang been kicked in the head by a horse? He has to rely on infantry to fight our army first. They are probably kidding!"
On the battlefield, the cavalry is the boss of the infantry!
After seeing the Xiliang army's formation, Ma Jin said: "The opponent is divided into three armies, the left and right sides, and the central army. I wonder which side you two will choose?"
Han De said: "I will fight the Zuo Army!"
Pang Yong glanced at Ma Jin: "Then I will choose the Chinese army. I would like to have a confrontation with the Xiliang army to see if they are as powerful as the intelligence indicates."
Ma Jin was a little surprised when he heard Pang Yong's words: "Since Brother Pang has such confidence, then I will give up the Chinese army to him, and then the three of us will see who can kill the Xiliang camp first!"
"We still need some luck!" Han De said: "If among the three of us, whoever reaches the Xiliang Chinese Army's tent first, then the other two families will give the winner three thousand Liangzhou horses. I wonder how the two of them feel?
"
"I think it's okay!" Pang Yong said with a smile: "But my little brother has taken advantage of it!"
The Chinese army was closest to the Xiliang Chinese army camp. Ma Jin heard the confident words of the two men and echoed them.
However, for some reason, when he saw the Xiliang army, he felt a very strange feeling and felt very uneasy.
The movements of the three armies are very fast, and since most of them are cavalry, they are very mobile.
In the land of Liangzhou, cavalry is the most popular, and most of the battles are between cavalry and infantry. They rarely encounter infantry.
Not long after the sun came up, the armies of the three major families in Liangzhou separated and went to where their enemies were. Behind them, the guns of the Xiliang Navy were fully opened. They only wanted to target the enemies of the left and right armies.
Prime Minister Li also focused his attention on the left and right armies. He was not very worried about the center army.
Boom!
The Xiliang army in the center was the first to be attacked, because it was the closest and was the most advanced unit among the three armies.
Pang Yong rushed to the front wearing heavy armor. The Pang family's cavalry all wore heavy armor. Although there was a slight gap compared to the Ma family's cavalry in combat, the gap was not very big.
Ordinary long arrows that fall on them will be blocked by their armor. To break through the armor, you need long arrows with a certain amount of leather armor.
When the Pang family's cavalry approached two hundred meters away, the long arrows in the hands of the Xiliang archers and crossbowmen flew out instantly.
From a distance of two hundred meters, they can only shoot three to five times before they have to retreat!
With each round of firing, the Xiliang army would retreat a little, leaving an accessible corridor between the armies on both sides, waiting for people to enter the corridor.
Whoosh!
The long arrows made a whistling sound and formed a rain of arrows falling from the sky. Pang Yong burst out with a burst of Qi, blocking all these long arrows.
Those who rushed with him were all his most elite troops, and the horses they rode were all Liangzhou horses.
One round of long arrows only knocked down a few hundred people. The second attack only knocked down a few hundred people. After the third attack, the archers and crossbowmen in front entered the corridor directly.
"Formation!" The infantry square formation instantly changed. Shields stood up on the left and right sides, and the halberds turned into hedgehog thorns. The Pang cavalry who rushed at the front saw those halberds, and they didn't know why they were filled with fear.
boom!
The first cavalryman rushed to one side of the infantry square, but did not rush in. The horses and soldiers were separated by sharp halberds.
A huge shield of about 1.5 meters can effectively block the impact of enemy horses.
Pang Yong did not rush to both sides. When he saw a door in the middle of the enemy, which seemed to be a trap, Pang Yong went straight in without fear.
Seeing this scene, Li Xiang couldn't help but shake his head. This general didn't seem to have a very bright mind, but he admired the other party's courage.
This was the first time Mo Daoshou faced a cavalry attack. They had faced attacks from ferocious beasts before.
Each of the swordsmen looked calmly ahead. Their positions were very regular. After the one in front used his sword, the people behind him would not be hindered by the former and could continue to kill.
In a war, once Mo Daoshou takes action, he can only keep moving forward to kill, and those who retreat will only be seriously injured or killed.
Woo~
The desolate horn sounded, and the Mo Dao warriors were ready. Pang Yong led his cavalry along the trap left by the Xiliang army, and finally reached the Mo Dao formation.
When I saw that black armor, holding a weapon that was taller than the one riding on the war horse, there was a cold light.
General Mo Dao headed forward with glaring eyes. The people in the first platoon were ready to attack, and the second platoon was also preparing.
Facing these weapons, Pang Yong felt a chill in his heart for some reason. A voice was telling him that if he continued to rush forward, he would die!
Pang Yong's sprinting speed slowed down, but those soldiers did not. The soldiers in heavy armor rushed towards the Modao Formation.
General Mo Dao charged up his strength with both hands, calculating the enemy's speed and distance.
Dong-dong-dong! The sound of horse hooves and the sound of armor and weapons on the cavalry were all in the ears and eyes of General Mo Dao.
"kill!"
A flash of cold light flashed forward with a huge blade that was one meter and a half long. The blade slashed diagonally down from the war horse's neck. The horse's head and front legs were chopped off at the same time. The warrior on the war horse did not react at all. From the war horse,
He fell down, bumped into Mo Daojiang's armor, and fell to the side.
drink!
As Mo Dao is about to draw his sword, other Mo Dao players will follow suit. Because the enemies come at different speeds, these Mo Dao players calculate their own speed and wield their weapons.
Rinse, rinse, rinse...
There were terrifying sounds of chopping meat, and the heavy armored cavalry rushing forward fell one after another amidst these sounds. Many people also bumped into Mo Daoshou, but Mo Daoshou's armor can be called...
One of the best equipment in Xiliang.
The weapons are made of the ores of the Dark World, and the armors are made of the ores of the Underworld. There are also furs of high-level ferocious beasts and soft armor inside, which can effectively remove a lot of force.
Why are heavy armored troops afraid of blunt weapons? Because the power of blunt weapons can penetrate. This type of armor is designed to reduce the damage caused by blunt weapons and impact.
These war horses collided with Mo Dao Shou, and a lot of their color power was removed, which only made these soldiers feel uncomfortable. Mo Dao Shou behind them took their positions, constantly switching positions to help each other.
After a while, a large number of war horse corpses appeared beside them. With a move of Mo Dao, both men and horses were killed.
Pang Yong, who stopped not far away, saw this scene in front of him. His heavy cavalry rushed forward, seeking death!
He had never encountered a scene like this.
"Major General, we can't go any further!" A cavalry general next to Pang Yong said in a frightened voice: "We can't go through. If we go any further, we will die!"
At this time, seeing the miserable state of their comrades in front, the cavalrymen coming from behind felt a sense of fear.
When Li Xiang saw the opponent's appearance, he knew that those cavalrymen probably didn't dare to charge!
"Order the swordsmen to attack!"
Once the cavalry stops and their mobility and impact disappear, fighting on the spot is no match for the melee infantry!
"Kill!" The long swordsmen followed their respective commanders into the battlefield. Their sharp long swords cut off the legs of the war horses, causing these soldiers to fall off their horses, or directly attack the people on the horses.
At the front, the recess was filled with cavalry, and the cavalry rushing forward from behind rushed to both sides and plunged into the heavy infantry formation.
In the early stage, the heavy cavalry cannot break through the military formation, and the cavalry behind will not be able to exert their charging power.
"Retreat!" Pang Yong shouted loudly with his true energy, wanting to lead the army away from this military formation, but now most of the cavalry inside had been entangled by the long swordsmen, and wanted to run and ask the long swordsmen, and
Is Mo Dao’s hand gone?
At this time, the armies on both sides began to fight together. Han De and Ma Jin did not directly send out their most elite troops at the beginning, but first sent a unit to test the combat effectiveness of the other side's army.
Those troops who reached the military formation were quickly killed by bows and arrows, crossbows, and then stabbed to death by spears.
The only way to break the formation is heavy cavalry!
Ma Jin personally led the cavalry to rush into the army outside the pass. Under the leadership of Ma Jin, the Liangzhou cavalry directly destroyed the army formation where Hei Yun was.
Heiyun picked up the weapon and killed them without fear. They all rose up from the killing and followed the lord. They had married wives and had children. They had no regrets in life. All that was left was to follow the lord.
"Kill!" The weapon in Heiyun's hand was a horse spear, and he spurred his horse towards Ma Jin. Ma Jin was like a harvester on the battlefield, walking to one place and killing a lot of soldiers.
To deal with masters, masters are needed!
When Heiyun, who had already reached the second-rate level, saw Ma Jin, he knew that Ma Jin was a first-rate master, but he couldn't let Ma Jin continue to kill like this. He wanted to give the troops behind him some time, and he had to block the opponent for a while, and he had to contain him.
!
Ma Jin stabbed a centurion to death with one shot, and suddenly there was a sharp pain from behind. If it weren't for the armor and Gang Qi on his body, he might have been seriously injured.
"You're looking for death!" Ma Jin turned around and stabbed out with his spear. Hei Yun responded with force. Ma Jin's every blow was heavy, while Hei Yun responded with gritted teeth. Both of them erupted with powerful momentum.
The power of Ma Jin's spear is very powerful, and its speed is not slow. If Heiyun hadn't relied on the blessing of the Xiliang war horse underneath him, he would have been unable to withstand it. A large part of the power of Ma Jin's spear was absorbed by the war horse.
嘡嘡嘡!
The two weapons were constantly colliding, and the bigger Ma Jin got, the angrier he became, because he was a first-rate person, but it took him so long to defeat an enemy who was a second-rate person.
After Heiyun forcibly fought with Ma Jin for twenty rounds, blood flowed from his mouth, and the horse under him could not stand firmly, and blood continued to flow out.
Damn!
The Ma Jin spear struck again, and Hei Yun blocked the final blow with the Ma Shan in his hand.
puff!
He spit out a mouthful of blood and fell down from his horse. The horse also fell down. It was one of them and one horse that blocked Ma Jin's attack.
"Black Cloud!" On the other side, Zhao Tiezhu was riding on a war horse. He had lost his legs, but the Xiliang blacksmith made iron legs that connected his thighs so that he could ride on the war horse.
He saw Heiyun fall. The man who killed Heiyun also wanted to get Heiyun's weapon. The horse spear was a treasure given to Heiyun by his lord.
Whoosh!
Ma Jin picked up the strange weapon with his spear. Just halfway through, he was shot to the ground by a long arrow.
Turning around and looking over, he saw a Xiliang general.
"Major General, the opponent's follow-up troops are coming!" The general ran to Ma Jin and said, "Our army needs to step back and wait for the follow-up troops to come to support!"
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly there were bursts of violent explosions, and violent explosions occurred in the middle of the armies on the left and right sides. Many war horses were frightened by the violent noises and fell down directly.
The naval forces in Sanshui Lake began to attack, interrupting the enemy's reinforcements.
Ma Jin glanced behind him and saw that all the troops in the area that were attacked were gone.
At this time, Xiliang's follow-up troops arrived. Taking a look at the weapon on the ground and the second-rate archer holding a long bow, Ma Jin sneered, stretched out his hand, and dropped the bow into his hand.
Whoosh!
Zhao Tiezhu shot out an arrow from his hand, but was blocked by Ma Jin's shot, and led the remaining troops back to the main force.
Zhao Tiezhu quickly walked to the side of Heiyun, jumped off his horse, and dug his iron legs into the soil. Heiyun opened his eyes and looked at his right hand, where the weapon was.
Zhao Tiezhu knows that people will die in war, ordinary soldiers will die, soldiers from Xiliang headquarters will die, they will die too, and the lord has experienced life and death many times.
But when he saw that his friend was really dead, he felt panicked. He knew that Heiyun loved Ma Shan, not only because it was a treasure, but also because it was an honor. Xiliang was the first to win Ma Shan.
general!
"Don't worry, Ma Shan will take it back, and I will help you give it to your son personally!" Zhao Tiezhu said to the guards at the back: "Carry the body of General Heiyun to the back!"
