Chapter 190 Cavalry Breakthrough

The rebel cavalry now is already dying. If they can fight out, they will probably have escaped long ago.

The rebel general named Huang led his troops to fight towards several other rebel troops, and originally thought he could gather them together.

But the facts proved that his idea was too naive. His team of 100 people kept falling off as they shuttled through the formation. When he came to the front of one of the teams, there was less than half behind him.

Seeing the wounded soldiers of the rebel army, General Huang was startled. However, just as he was about to kill another team, he was unfortunately hit by a bullet and dropped off his horse.

General Huang was unable to gather all the cavalry in the end and died before he could succeed.

When Zhang Xianzhong saw several other cavalry teams rushing left and right in the spear formation, he knew that it would be useless to wait like this, so he made up his mind and led the cavalry team behind him to fight outside the formation.

Facing the sharp spear, the big beasts were reluctant to go up to die. When they saw the sharp spears, they turned their direction one after another, which made Zhang Xianzhong die of anger.

In the end, his military advisor offered him a suggestion, that is, - to be majestic!

After listening to the military advisor's advice, Zhang Xianzhong agreed after weighing the pros and consequent, and immediately tore off a corner of the battle robe and blindfolded his geography.

Seeing that the leader blindfolded the horse's urethra, his subordinates followed suit, and they tore off their robes, clothes and other fabrics to blindfold the horse's urethra.

The war horses were blindfolded by the cloth, and their eyes immediately turned black. Apart from the cavalry, they could not see the situation ahead, so they could not say they were afraid, and they could only advance according to the cavalry's wishes.

Although this solves the problem of war horses encountering spear turns, another disadvantage also appears. Because the war horses are blindfolded, the situation ahead cannot be seen at all. In this way, the direction of the war horses is completely controlled by the cavalry on the horse's back. It would be fine if the cavalry is skilled in cavalry, but if the cavalry is less skilled, it is impossible to avoid the obstacles in front of them. There are also other soldiers who are colliding with other soldiers from time to time. In addition to the horse corpses and pits on the ground, there are countless cavalry that are rolling down from the horse for a moment.

Looking at the chaos of cavalry units, Zhang Xianzhong was cruel and rushed towards a weak army formation in the Andong Army.

Lin Dong was also surprised to see Zhang Xianzhong so decisively. At the same time, he secretly admired Zhang Xianzhong. He had seen the battle between the cavalry of the rebel army many times in history books, but he did not expect that he would encounter it when he had formally fought with the rebel army for the first time.

It seems that Zhang Xianzhong made such a decision, and no one was willing to give up easily as the cavalry, as the king of war in this era.

However, Zhang Xianzhong gave up a small half of the cavalry without any hesitation. This kind of courage is definitely not something that ordinary generals can do.

As the war horses ran and attacked, the spear broke and the cavalry on the war horses fell off one after another under the impact of inertia. However, before they could wail, the cavalry behind rushed up.

Some of the cavalrymen hit the horses that fell to the ground, and those who reacted quickly rushed over from the side, killing and injuring countless times.

In this way, there was also a gap in the Andong Army's spear formation, giving the rebel cavalry a chance to escape.

"General, let me lead people to block the gap." Seeing the cavalry of the rebel army rushing out of the siege, the black bear said with an unwilling look on his face.

"No need, just leave. Now I have to crippled the cavalry of the rebel army and can no longer form combat power in a short period of time. I am afraid of tomorrow's battle!" Lin Dong looked up at Tianse and said.

Seeing Zhang Xianzhong leave with the cavalry, Lin Dong was also helpless. If he had such a cavalry unit in his hand, how could he let him escape?

However, defeating the cavalry of the rebels does not mean victory in the battle, but the beginning of the battle.

Because there are tens of thousands of infantry soldiers from the rebel army behind the cavalry, although these people are not very combative, they are still a great challenge for the exhausted Anton Army.

When the cavalry left, Lin Dong asked to clean the battlefield immediately, especially the war horses left by the rebel army, which were all treasures. He didn't want others to get a bargain.

Fortunately, the nearby Ming army has been defeated, and the Tianxiong army, which had just been assembled by Lu Xiangsheng, is still more than ten miles away.

As for the infantry of the rebel army, they were still far behind and waiting for the cavalry to completely defeat the Ming army before launching a general attack.

"General, we are rich this time." Looking at the war horses, Xu Hongwei said with a red face.

"Yes, with these horses, we can finally form our own cavalry and scout troops." Lin Dong said with a sigh.

"General, what is a scout?" Xu Hongwei asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"That's to find a horse!" Lin Dong explained hurriedly.

"So that's it. Xu Hongwei requested to join the scout unit." Xu Hongwei was stunned and said intently that he didn't know where the new words of the general came from, but it was very appropriate, so he immediately asked.

Lin Dong said intimately: Xu Hongwei is a seedling, and it would be no problem if the scouts were led by him.

"Little thief Lin Dong, why not hand over the scouts to me!" At this moment, a crisp voice came. Lin Dong looked back and saw that it was Chang Yao. She was looking at herself with anticipation and said.

"You?" Lin Dong looked at her with a suspicion and asked, "Do you know how to inquire about military information?"

"Little thief, don't underestimate people, and don't inquire about what the Jinyiwei does." Chang Yao said with a disdainful look on her face.

"Since Miss Chang is so confident, I will give you a chance." Lin Dong pointed to the direction of the crusing army and said, "Now our army has limited understanding of the enemy's situation. If Miss Chang can clearly find out the situation of the crusing army before dark, I, Lin Dong, will hand over the captain to you, what?"

"What's the difficulty?" Chang Yao looked at Lin Dong contemptuously, then glanced at the soldiers and said, "Come with me if you can ride a horse but are not afraid of death."

Chang Yao said as she jumped onto the war horse and looked at the soldiers of Andong Army with a smile.

Everyone was so furious when a woman looked down upon her, but many people couldn't ride a horse. Although they were angry, they had no way to refute it.

At this time, several soldiers walked out of the crowd and said, "Master Qianhu is too underestimating people. When will the people of Andong Army be afraid of death? Today we will take you to go there."

Most of these people have been coachmen. Although they have never rode war horses, they know some riding skills. Now no one can ride horses, so naturally they cannot deteriorate the majesty of Anton Army.

"General Xu, dare you go with me?" Chang Yao asked at Xu Hongwei with a smile.
