Chapter 1386: Unmoving like a mountain, moving like thunder
Unmoving like a mountain, moving like thunder.
There are 70,000 regular guards in Daze City, and there are also 70,000 Tianxiong troops. Even if they conceal it internally, Zhu Zhen wants to use this as a trump card. This troop configuration is also Zhu Zhencong's former military force.
Learned from traveling around the city.
In the final stage, under the pressure of siege, the Daning army went out of the city to rescue the people and fight. The performance of the Zhenbei army at that time left a deep impression on him.
Zhu Zhen also wants to follow suit when needed, and he believes Tianxiongjun can do the same.
But now we can no longer wait for that time. The Tianxiong Army, which has been eager to perform since the war started, finally has a chance!
They show their true strength!
This is a real torrent of steel, without any exaggeration. The dark and bright armor extends from the back of the war horse to the hoof joints, almost completely covering it.
The war horse's head only revealed a pair of eyes and a wheezing muzzle.
The cavalry on horseback were also fully armed. They held up a fine iron spear, and the tip of the spear shone with a cold light.
They are heavy cavalry!
As the most powerful army in the Liang Kingdom, the Tianxiong Army is known to outsiders as just a light cavalry, but is actually a combined army.
Wearing light cavalry armor, they are the Tianxiong Army, but when wearing heavy armor, they have another name... Iron Buddha!
This title is famous throughout the country!
It is an army that is as famous as the Zhenbei Army and even surpasses it.
Pagoda means iron tower in Buddhist language. On the battlefield, they are rampant iron towers.
On the battlefield, the Iron Pagoda is invincible, and no grass grows wherever it passes.
But just a few years ago, Liang Jun Commander Yang Qizheng led an army of 200,000 to Dakang, and suffered his first defeat in the battle with Guan Ning, who was still the king of Zhenbei at the time.
Since then, Iron Buddha Tu has never appeared again, and many people thought that it had been completely wiped out by Guan Ning.
This is not the case!
As a veteran military power, it is natural that it has some background, which has been hidden until it explodes as a trump card!
Now the time has come!
Thirty thousand Tiefutu heavy cavalry came out of the city and quickly dispersed and lined up. Dozens of horses should be kept between each row to ensure that the horses behind would not hit the front team because they could not stop, causing unnecessary accidents.
damage.
As they lined up, a large number of troops came out from the rear. They were all accompanying auxiliaries and served the heavy cavalry.
The armoring has been completed in the city, and now they need to connect each war horse with a leather chain, so that three people form a team to form a combat unit.
When attacking, this team acts as a whole and can exert its maximum combat power.
They obviously do this often, and everyone has a clear division of labor. Although there are many people, there is no chaos at all.
Act quickly and cooperate tacitly.
The whole process was quite fast and it only took a short time to complete!
"kill!"
Liu Huai, the general of the Tianxiong Army, roared with all his strength.
He did not go into battle. To use the words in recent stories, Liu Huai was weak and delicate, how could he wear heavy armor?
Although he didn't go into battle, his expression was ferocious, even crazier than those who were rushing to kill him.
The killing intent is too strong!
He was obviously a loyal minister of Zhu Zhen, so why did he become a favorite? Favor is still a favor.
Simply outrageous.
With Liu Huai's murderous intent, the Tianxiong army began to attack.
At dawn, they attacked suddenly, just to catch the enemy by surprise.
The war drums placed on the city wall were beaten instantly. Without any preparation, the drumbeats became dense and spread in all directions, and the horn of attack had been sounded.
The atmosphere suddenly changed, and the entire battlefield was immediately filled with a murderous atmosphere.
With this sound, Iron Buddha Temple set off!
"tread!"
"tread!"
The ground trembled, and the tremors were quite strong. During the charge, they swept over the camp of Daning's army like a wave.
The speed of the heavy cavalry is not fast, but it gives people a strong sense of oppression. The pressure is indescribable.
They don't care at all about the enemy's defensive strategies or countermeasures. They only know that if they rush in, they will win, and the enemy will definitely be unable to stop them!
When the Tiefu Tu attacked, a large number of cavalry rushed out from the city.
They quickly caught up with the Iron Buddha and were separated on the left and right wings, each with tens of thousands of light cavalry. They could make full use of their high mobility and the huge impact of group charges to outflank the enemy and then attack.
At the same time, they are also responsible for protecting the two wings of Iron Buddha from enemies.
This is a tactic that has been developed over time in the battlefield. It is already quite mature and will definitely guarantee invincibility and no one can defeat it...
There was only one defeat.
Zhu Zhen, who was looking at the entire battlefield from the city wall, remembered his previous defeat.
The conclusion drawn from the post-war analysis is that the flaws of Iron Buddha Tu were caught by Emperor Yuanwu, and it is an undisputed fact that it has poor maneuverability.
Emperor Yuanwu took advantage of this. He avoided fighting and used the super mobility of Guan Ning's cavalry and the Zhenbei Army to spin Tiefutu in a circle. As a result, he failed to exert his combat power and was instead restrained and defeated.
However, the situation now is different from that then.
That is in a wider battlefield, where large-scale armies can disperse and move, especially against highly mobile enemy forces, where the advantages can really be brought into play.
There is not such a vast area at the moment, and the enemy's camp is there. It cannot be escaped, and the enemy's force is huge, which gives the Iron Buddha Temple more room to play.
Just charge forward without thinking about anything else.
Zhu Zhen clenched his fists, a sinister smile on his face.
"Guan Ning, let you taste the wrath of Iron Buddha!"
In this small battlefield, heavy cavalry can cause heavy casualties to the enemy by pushing and crushing them horizontally.
Even the Zhenbei Army can't stop it!
Let’s settle old and new grudges together!
He had already made a careful battle plan. When Tiefutu rushed into the enemy camp and crushed and killed them, all the troops in the city immediately mobilized and surged forward to win the battle!
He wants to slaughter all the enemy troops, only then can he relieve the hatred in his heart.
Just as Tiefu Tu was attacking, the Daning army in the camp was retreating quickly.
They have time to prepare, pay attention to the enemy's battle situation at all times, and get intelligence as soon as the enemy makes any movement.
The Iron Buddha is of course a powerful existence in the era of cold weapons. Guan Ning does not have no ways to deal with it, such as the Macedonian Phalanx, or the famous general Yue Fei's breakthrough of the Golden Wu Technique, but these have certain restrictions and will also cause a lot of casualties.
.
The enemy army has been harassed for many days. From Zhuzhen to the generals and soldiers, all the officers and soldiers are very eager to fight. It is undoubtedly foolish to confront them head-on.
Guan Ning chose the same method he used when fighting Tiefu Tu... to avoid fighting!
You are very strong, but if I don't fight you, what can you do?
Chapter completed!
