"You want to kite us?" Bu San, the commander of the Xiliang Cavalry, laughed when he saw the enemy's actions.
Although he is the infantry commander of the Xiliang army, his ability to command surprise troops is no worse than that of infantry.
He only became the infantry commander after losing to those guys.
Xiliang generals know the mobility and fighting power of Xiliang cavalry best. The only ones in Liangzhou that can compete with Xiliang horses in speed and endurance in a short period of time are Liangzhou horses.
The cavalry in front of them is indeed good, but do they really think that the Xiliang cavalry can't catch up with them wearing heavy armor?
If they are really fast enough, do they still need to chase them for so long?
Bu San rode his horse straight towards the opponent's center, and a cavalry unit launched an attack from the left wing, unleashing the fastest speed of Xiliang's horses.
Han Zhong and his light cavalry turned around and retreated when they saw the Xiliang cavalry charging at them with great momentum. They took out their bows and arrows and shot at the Xiliang cavalry charging from behind.
The long arrow sat on the heavy armor of the Xiliang cavalry, leaving a crisp collision sound, but the Xiliang soldiers were not affected at all.
The speed of the Xiliang war horses has reached its fastest speed, and the distance between them and the light cavalry is getting closer and closer. Han Zhong looked back and felt something was wrong.
These Xiliang cavalry wearing heavy armor, how can they be so fast?
Han Zhongshi couldn't figure out why Xiliang's war horse could run so fast while carrying a knight wearing heavy armor on its back.
The Xiliang cavalry put their long swords back into their scabbards during the charge. The distance between them and the light cavalry was getting closer and closer, but it was difficult to rush to the opponent's side for a while.
So they took out the short bows placed on their horses. Each Xiliang cavalry was good at using long-range weapons such as success. At the same time, they also had another long-range attack weapon, the short crossbow.
The short crossbow will only be taken out when the distance between the enemy and the enemy is less than ten meters, because it only has one chance to attack. After using it, they have no time to load the crossbow.
The short bow is different. Its effective lethality can reach 70 meters away. Coupled with the strong strength of Xiliang soldiers, compared with the long bow, except for the range, there is basically no big difference in lethality.
The Southwest Iron Cavalry took out their short bows and shot at the enemies in front. It was very difficult to grasp the direction immediately, so basically only two or three of the ten long arrows could be hit.
The enemy hit by the feathers of the short bow will basically fall off the horse. At this time, Han Zhong deeply doubted whether he was a light cavalry or Xiliang was a light cavalry.
Why are the long arrows shot by the enemy so lethal? The long arrows shot by one's side seem to tickle the opponent, and the distance between the two sides is still further accelerating!
Bu San rode his horse and rushed to the front. Looking at the enemies getting closer and closer, he pulled out the scimitar that his lord had specially made for them.
Different arms in Xiliang have different equipment, just like each special army has unique weapons.
The Mo Dao Hands, who are known as cavalry killers among the heavy infantry, have a heavy weapon specially used to slash cavalry. They dare not rush towards Mo Dao Hands Bu San when encountering them.
It's really scary. A sword emitting cold light is standing there, making people feel frightened just looking at it.
The long blade could easily cut off the head of a war horse, and there were also burly soldiers, each of whom was carefully selected from the Xiliang army.
Even among the top talents in the Xiliang army who can become Modao soldiers, the Modao Heavy Infantry Corps only has 6,000 people.
Of course, some legions will also be equipped with some Mo Dao. When the time comes, the Xiliang infantry can form a Mo Dao formation to resist cavalry attacks.
When the two meet, whoever is brave will die. Only the brave one who is at the back can survive.
"Click!"
The scimitar swung by Bu San struck a cavalryman, and the soldier screamed and fell off his horse. Then he was trampled by the horses behind him, leaving behind a piece of blood and mud.
"kill!"
The Xiliang soldiers shouted loudly, waving their sharp scimitars and slashing past the Han cavalry. They were silent before because they belonged to the party being chased.
In order to lure the enemy deeper, they kept pretending to be cowardly on the road, making the Han cavalry think they were afraid of them.
Now they want to let these Han cavalry know why their Xiliang cavalry can roam this grassland, and why the Liangzhou cavalry, known as the Liangzhou Horse, is no match for them.
Do you really think that the light cavalry can kite their Xiliang cavalry from a distance?
Every time the sharp scimitar was swung, a Han family cavalry was taken away, and the green grass was dyed red with bright red blood.
At this time, Han Zhong no longer wanted to sneak away from the Xiliang cavalry, because he saw that the few cavalrymen behind who were about to fight with the Xiliang soldiers were easily hacked to death by the Xiliang cavalry.
Unable to distance themselves, weapons could not break through the armor of the Xiliang Iron Riders. The weapons among the Xiliang Iron Riders could easily scratch their leather armor.
Their horses couldn't outrun Xiliang's horses, and even though they were lightly dressed, they couldn't outrun the heavily armored Xiliang cavalry. Looking at the grass beneath their feet, they had a rough plan in mind.
"Turn around and fight them!" Han Zhong, who was at the front, led his army to a slope. The grassland continued to extend upwards. You could also turn your horse's head at the top of the slope and use the geographical advantage to rush towards them from above.
under.
Han Zhong did as he was told. The one at the top began to turn the horse's head. The army was divided into two groups. He led one to turn from the right and the other from the left.
The army surged up from the center, and the cavalry on the left and right sides rushed towards the Xiliang Iron Cavalry at a very fast speed.
"Well done!" The Xiliang cavalry rushing up from the bottom did not have any fear in their eyes when they saw the Han cavalry rushing up from the top. Instead, they rushed up at a faster speed.
Boom boom boom...
The battlefield was filled with the sound of horses from both sides running, the rumble of horse hooves, and then the sound of swords clashing as the two collided.
The Xiliang cavalry is at a disadvantage in terms of geographical location, but their weapons and equipment are enough to crush the weapons and equipment of the Han family's cavalry, and the strength and physical strength of the soldiers also completely crush the Han family's soldiers.
Soldiers from both sides were waving their weapons desperately. On such a battlefield, no matter how good your skills are, it is better to have a set of thick armor, because you never know where the enemy's next attack will come from.
The Xiliang soldiers' armors were full of scars. The armor blocked more than 80% of the damage for them. Only those with true energy could hurt them a little.
The Xiliang cavalry fought all the way up, and Han Zhong fought from top to bottom. The sweat and blood on his body were mixed together. At a glance, there were not many people left and right.
The Xiliang cavalry had reached the top of the mountain, and the ground for more than ten miles was littered with corpses. The Han family's light cavalry suffered heavy losses in the first collision between the two sides.
Now that the Xiliang cavalry had taken advantage of the geographical advantage, they rushed from the top to the bottom and began to pursue the Han family's light cavalry.
Seeing the still menacing Xiliang cavalry, the Han family's light cavalry worked hard to gather together. Only by gathering together can they fight against each other on the battlefield.
"Divide the troops into five groups and retreat!" Han Zhong asked his officers to disperse the troops: "Don't confront the opponent head-on. Focus on guerrilla warfare and gather together when you see my banner."
He gave up the head-to-head confrontation with the Xiliang cavalry, but he did not give up the idea of sniping the Xiliang cavalry from a distance.
The speed of the Xiliang cavalry exploded very quickly, but he definitely did not believe that these Xiliang cavalry could continue to explode. Maybe the opponent was holding back their breath before catching up with them.
10,000 cavalry were scattered on the grassland. The Xiliang cavalry did not disperse. Instead, they rushed forward and defeated all the people in front of them. They directly ignored the enemies on both sides of the runway.
Another group of Xiliang cavalry attacking on the left encountered the Han family's light cavalry, which had been defeated by Bu San. They charged at the cavalry that had not yet gathered together at a high speed.
Bu San saw the Han family's cavalry that had been dispersed and had no intention of fighting. He continued to charge forward with his cavalry, with the goal of returning to the main battlefield. The place where most of the Han family's cavalry gathered after they dispersed was where they gathered.
The direction from which it came.
The battle on the main battlefield should now be very fierce, and the opponent should focus all their attention on the infantry on the front battlefield and the Flying Bear Army on the other side.
He is not worried about the Flying Bear Army. With the Flying Bear Army's abnormal fighting power, as long as the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army want to leave, no one from the Han family can keep their troops.
On the contrary, the infantry phalanx outside the city gate blocking the enemy's entry into the city is very dangerous. Even if there are heavy infantry in front, the heavy infantry is still flesh and blood. How can it withstand the charge of the opponent's cavalry.
Huhuhu~
Han Zhong was breathing heavily and his body was covered with sweat. He was almost caught up and entangled by the Xiliang cavalry. If he was entangled by these Xiliang cavalry, there was basically no possibility of escaping.
He looked back at the main battlefield over there. There were 10,000 light cavalry under his command. They all fell on the grassland at this time. He didn't know how many of them were still alive.
I don’t know how many people were killed by those terrifying Xiliang cavalry.
He really didn't expect the Xiliang cavalry, wearing thick armor, to be so fast.
"How should I explain to the general?" Han Zhong looked helplessly at the Xiliang cavalry in the distance. The Xiliang cavalry was running back quickly in the direction they came from.
Han Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "Put up my flag again."
He wanted to gather his troops and continue to entangle the Xiliang cavalry. It turned out that the general asked him to only entangle the Xiliang cavalry and not to confront them head-on.
Since they cannot be defeated on the frontal battlefield, they can only rely on the power on the main battlefield.
Previously, the Xiliang cavalry pretended not to dare to fight, so they first paralyzed them and led them away from the reinforcements on the frontal battlefield.
Because if the fighting starts on the frontal battlefield, the general will definitely send new troops to support, and the Xiliang cavalry does not want to fight directly with their Han family cavalry.
Han Zhong's banner was raised, and the light cavalry who had been crushed by the Xiliang cavalry quickly gathered over.
They are also famous light cavalry on the grassland, but today they were chased by a cavalry from the northwest on the grassland here, and they didn't even have the strength to fight back.
The opponent crushed them with weapons, equipment and horses. These soldiers were almost killed by the Xiliang cavalry.
The assembled Han family light cavalry did not dare to get within 500 meters of the Xiliang cavalry. Sometimes they felt that it was not safe even 500 meters away.
"How dare you follow me!"
Seeing that the Han family cavalry dared to wander around them, Bu San immediately divided eight hundred elite cavalry into eight teams and rushed out, targeting the Han family cavalry wandering around.
Seeing the Southwest Cavalry rushing out, these light cavalry dispersed immediately like mice seeing a cat.
Bu San slowed down the marching speed of the army. At this time, in addition to the 800 cavalry who went out to pursue the scattered soldiers, there were still more than 3,000 fighting men left in the army.
There were very few people who were seriously injured in the cavalry charge. Basically, few soldiers who fell from their horses survived. About 500 people died there, but now they even went to collect the bodies of those brothers.
There is no time.
They rushed back to the frontal battlefield to help the infantry phalanx.
At this time, the sky had begun to become dark, and it was already evening before I knew it.
The fighting on the frontal battlefield has also stopped, and the infantry phalanx is still standing upright. Countless corpses have been piled up in front of them.
Because the corpses of the cavalry were in a shapeless state, with their pale bones exposed in the air, the Xiliang soldiers silently collected the corpses belonging to their compatriots.
Then it was transported to the already dilapidated gate city.
The head of the Han family looked at the Xiliang infantry in the distance unwillingly. He had driven away the two cavalrymen from Xiliang, but they still could not break through the infantry square.
Even outside the city, he could hear the fighting going on inside the city all day long. The clan leader and the others must have been extremely worried inside the city.
Just like outside the city, there were corpses everywhere inside the city. The Xiliang army and the head of the Han family gathered together to fight for a day, and both sides suffered heavy losses.
Relying on war machinery, sophisticated weapons and armor, the Xiliang army managed to withstand the attack assembled by the leader of the Han family.
"Can you leave?" Xiang Li said without raising his head: "The Han family is finished."
The Han family's army in the city suffered heavy losses, and the last few elites were used up today.
The armies from the other three urban areas have captured the inner city and are now fighting with the soldiers left behind in the inner city.
Without the inner city, the Han family's army lost its last place of resistance. In addition, almost all of their last army troops died in today's one-day breakout.
The Xiliang army can still guard outside the city, and the Han family's cavalry cannot break through.
The smile on the face of the Lingjiu Palace Master no longer existed. No one could laugh when they saw the tragic war below.
"Nujia, I'm leaving now, but I hope the King of Xiliang won't anger those common people!"
The Master of Lingjiu Palace also knows that the overall situation has been decided, and it will be useless even if she restrains Prime Minister Li!
The Han family was destroyed, and the Xiliang army also suffered heavy losses. With Li Xiang's character, it is very likely that there will be a massacre of the city!
"This is my business!" Li Xiang said and flew down. The Lord of the Lingjiu Palace did not stop him. He looked at the Anding City under the afterglow of the setting sun and sighed helplessly.
In the end, they still couldn't stop the Xiliang army!
