Chapter 281 Riding and Shooting(1/2)
Following Zhao Tong's mighty formation, he killed several generals.
The troops of Cao's army who wanted to come out to intercept almost lost their ability to resist.
There was no way he could stop the onslaught of more than a hundred knights who were charging like a rainbow at this moment.
When he saw it, he was about to rush straight into Cao's enemy's main formation.
The atmosphere here instantly became extremely solemn and subtle.
The general Fei Yao, who was in the center of the formation and supervising the battle, could actually feel the pressure brought by the attack of Zhao Tong's cavalry.
A glance away.
I saw that although the enemy only had about a hundred cavalry, their momentum was as strong as that of an army of more than ten thousand.
Fei Yao also knew that the enemies were no ordinary people!
His face suddenly became serious, and he said loudly in an extremely solemn tone: "Everyone, the thief Zhao Tong and more than a hundred people dared to attack our army's main formation."
"This is to deceive our army because we have no one!"
"Everyone, listen to my general's orders and fight."
After a while, the words fell.
He not only showed fear of the enemy's troops, but also encouraged the people of his subordinates with an understatement, so that they would not be affected by the death of four generals during the fierce battle.
This led to the collapse of military morale.
"You bring a sword and shield soldier forward to set up defense, to resist the impact of the enemy's cavalry head-on, and to offset the impact of the cavalry."
"You bring a group of spearmen to guard behind the sword and shield soldiers. When the enemy's cavalry is surrounded, they all thrust forward with their spears. They must be killed with full power."
"You two bring archers and crossbowmen to protect the left and right wings respectively to prevent the enemy's cavalry from scattering the flanks and harass them with cavalry shooting!"
"Here!"
As instructions are issued one after another.
All the generals and commanders took the order and went to arrange their troops.
Follow closely.
Fei Yao's eyes were eagerly anticipating the impact of the enemy cavalry ahead, and feeling the extremely strong sense of oppression, he unconsciously held the long knife in his hand tightly again.
Gradually I lost my patience.
He was already vaguely prepared to fight in person.
According to his observation.
This enemy can only ride more than a hundred men, but it can have such a powerful and unstoppable charging force, which is inseparable from the main general Zhao Tong.
If it weren't for the formation of an arrow, it would use its own bravery to carve out a bloody path, no one can match it, just like an arrow leaving the string.
No matter how brave the hundreds of riders are, they will never be so rampant.
He was already mentally prepared at all times.
If something goes wrong.
He personally attacked and intercepted Zhao Tong.
Then he ordered the soldiers from each department to surround and kill more than a hundred riders and defeat them one by one.
Fei Yao silently paid attention to the battle situation ahead, thinking this way.
Regardless of what he thinks here.
Outside the main formation.
At this moment, Zhao Tong led his troops out of the camp to attack, and they were unstoppable!
We are now very close to the enemy's main formation.
But he did not launch a surprise attack rashly.
Although he was full of confidence at this time, he was not so arrogant that he wanted to completely penetrate the enemy's formation with more than a hundred men.
Just when he was leading his cavalry and galloping wildly.
Zhao Tong was also bumping on his horse, his eyes drifting quietly towards the formation, trying to spy on the enemy general's response.
A blink of an eye.
More than a hundred riders were only a few dozen paces away from the enemy's main formation.
They were about to collide into a ball.
But Zhao Tong, who was always observing the enemy's defenses, suddenly noticed that the enemy's defenses were arranged in an orderly manner.
The connection between sword and shield soldiers, spearmen, and crossbowmen is extremely close.
He immediately realized that if he rushed into the enemy's position rashly, he might be in danger of capsizing!
Just think about this.
Zhao Tong immediately waved his gun high in an emergency, signaling his subordinates to stop.
The order is passed down.
Seeing this, more than a hundred riders behind him reined in their horses and stopped.
But due to inertia.
Before the war horse stopped, he still ran forward for almost ten more steps before he stopped.
Gulong
More than a hundred riders quickly stopped.
They are only about forty or fifty steps apart.
More than a hundred cavalry faced Cao Jun's main formation.
Looking at the enemy's cavalry formation in front of them, they formed a stagnant cavalry formation.
Fei Yao, who was in the middle of the main formation, couldn't help but focus his eyes slightly, and thought to himself: "This enemy cavalry really cannot be underestimated!"
"Strict discipline, measured advance and retreat, no flaws at all, really difficult to deal with!"
One word fell.
Although he saw that the enemy knights were in good military discipline.
But the one who was most interested in his eyes was still Zhao Tong.
He couldn't understand that even though he was the eldest son of Zhao Tong, he could command an army at such a young age and coordinate all the ministries well.
This alone is extremely rare.
"General Zhao, why did you suddenly stop?"
"The enemy's formation is right in front of us. I'm afraid that if they attack Liang again, the force of the attack will not be enough to penetrate the formation."
Wait for the cavalry and soldiers to complete their formation one after another.
In the meantime, the deputy principal rode up to the side, cupped his hands and asked.
Hearing this, Zhao Tong's face remained solemn and he said solemnly: "No, the plan has changed and I won't rush into the formation."
"ah?"
At that moment when the vice-principal showed suspicion.
The words fell.
Zhao Tong shouted the order: "The whole army will listen to the order, circle the flanks, and harass them with bows and crossbows."
The order is passed down.
Although the soldiers under his command suddenly changed their combat strategy when things came to a head for unknown reasons.
However, the soldiers still resolutely obeyed the instructions.
Give instructions.
More than a hundred cavalrymen continued to mount their horses and circle around the flanks of the enemy's main formation.
In the process, he retracted the sword in his palm and took off the carved bow from his back.
Run to the left wing first.
The cavalrymen each bent their bows and set arrows, and took aim on their horses without feeling any discomfort.
This knight corps was originally formed by Zhao Yun under orders.
It has almost taken more than ten years of practice.
Moreover, the team is basically composed of people from Youyan who followed Liu Bei in his early years.
Unlike southerners, northerners rarely have the opportunity to come into contact with horses.
After many years of practice, it is not difficult to be able to shoot the bow left and right on a war horse like the Hu people outside the Great Wall.
