Chapter 239: Battle on the Plateau(1/2)

If you could transform into a goshawk at this time, soar high in the sky, and look down at the entire earth, you would be able to clearly see a magnificent picture.

Tens of thousands of cavalry are approaching rapidly.

Muzhan and Blind Yao's coalition forces numbered 30,000 cavalry. They formed a semicircle, like a river overflowing an embankment, and surged toward the opposite side. The Song Dynasty cavalry opposite them was like an arrow shot out.

, the entire team went straight towards the thickest part of the opponent's team, and punched viciously.

The Tibetan cavalry wanted to rely on their own solid military strength to surround the opponent and encircle and annihilate it from all directions.

The Imperial and Song Dynasty cavalry adhered to the strategy of shooting men first, shooting horses first, and capturing thieves first, capturing the king first, and directly attacked the opponent's king's flag.

Of course, the place where the opponent's king's flag is located is also the place where the soldiers and horses are the thickest.

There is only one red lion flag on the entire battlefield, and that is where Blind Yao's central army is. When Xiao Ding was fighting Mu Zhan before, Mu Zhan also had such a flag, but now, it is obvious that he is weaker.

Mu Zhan is no longer qualified to raise such a flag.

And this also means that the two people have reached an agreement, and these 30,000 Tibetan cavalry will be under a unified command system.

But Xiao Ding didn't care.

Even if the other party has unified command, that's the same thing. The loose tribal alliance system and different interests determine that the other party's combat effectiveness will only reach its highest point in the early stages of the war.

Once they fall into a stalemate, once the losses exceed what these people can bear, some of them will inevitably want to quit. Because for them, after the losses exceed a certain point, their tribe will be in trouble in the future.

In their daily life, they lose their independent power and ultimately cannot escape the fate of being annexed by a larger tribe.

The five hundred and one steel monsters were all black, and they were so conspicuous under the reflection of the white earth. They immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the opposite side.

There was a howl, and the sky suddenly darkened.

Countless feather arrows flew up from the sky and covered this group of steel monsters.

The armored cavalry simply ignored the arrows falling from the sky. They crouched down, with the huge swords in their hands placed across the saddle, and kept tapping the belly of the war horse with their feet, driving the horse.

Forward, forward.

The feather arrow fell and hit the heavy armor, making a tinkling sound.

However it was of no use.

The heavy armor equipped by Xiao Ding's five hundred personal guards, and even the extremely sharp divine arm bow made by Huang Song himself and equipped with armor-piercing arrows, could only effectively damage it within fifty steps. The Tubo cavalry

In their eyes, the kind of feather arrows they hold in their hands are nothing more than scrap metal.

So the Tubo cavalry saw in horror that countless feather arrows shrouded the people on the opposite side, but the next moment, these feather arrows fell down feebly, but those black steel monsters jumped out of the arrow rain

And out.

Flesh and blood flying everywhere!

When Xiao Ding led the armored cavalry into the Tubo cavalry, the only word that could be used to describe it was that blood and flesh were flying everywhere.

Their war horses are selected Hexi war horses. They are a full head taller than ordinary war horses. The huge body plus the hunched knight weighs nearly three thousand kilograms.

Everything that stands in front of them is a disaster.

Samurai on horseback did not need to wield their swords.

They just put their swords across the saddle.

When they rushed through the Tubo cavalry, the huge impact caused the men and horses to be cut in two by the sword.

Viewed from a high place, wherever the more than 500 black horses passed by, a bright red wave of blood appeared.

Everyone has a desire to avoid risks, and so do animals.

The Tubo soldiers saw that these black-armored cavalry were invincible, and their horses were frightened by the appearance of the opponents they had never seen before.

Therefore, on the path of the impact of these armored cavalry, the Tibetan cavalry who could choose to avoid it, consciously or unconsciously, all moved to both sides to avoid it, but those who could not avoid it could only bravely wave.

They rushed up with their sabers. Most of them had no chance to get close to these cavalrymen and were cut into two by the sabers. Occasionally, someone came close and slashed them with their sabers. They heard the desperate clang sound.

That's where my thoughts end.

With almost no obstruction, the 501 cavalrymen killed the seemingly endless Tibetan cavalrymen until they were dented inward, and a huge blank appeared on the battlefield.

Those Tibetan cavalry who were trying to give way forgot one thing. When they made way to both sides one after another, the route they gave way was actually where their Chinese army's banner was located.

Blind Yao stared fiercely at Mu Zhan beside him.

Mu Zhan knew what the other party meant, shook his head and said: "I have never seen such cavalry under Xiao Ding before!"

Looking at the hundreds of cavalrymen who were almost in no man's land, Blind Yao sneered: "So, this cavalryman is specially built for me! Mu Zhan, what do you think we should do now?"

"

Mu Zhan chuckled: "Blind Yao, you asked my subordinates to be the vanguard. Now they have all rushed out. There are only the last thousand horsemen left by my side. You won't let me take them with you now."

Are they going to charge into battle?"

Blind Yao glanced at the other party. To be honest, he really had such an idea, but it just passed by him. If Blind Yao left his side, if the war went against him, would this guy be able to escape immediately?

I really can't say for sure, only by keeping him by his side will his subordinates fight to the death.

"Abahai!" he shouted loudly.

"The general is here!" A burly man came out from behind Blind Yao.

"Take your warriors and stop these monsters for me!" Blind Yao said: "Don't intercept them from the front, go around from the side, use lasso more often, use heavy weapons more often, they are not afraid of arrows, swords and spears.

I still don’t believe they are not afraid of being hit by heavy weapons!”

"Honor your order!" Although there was some fear in Abahai's eyes, he still loudly accepted the order.

"After defeating these monsters, Wangzhu will be yours after you go back! Haven't you always wanted to marry her?" Blind Yao said loudly.

"Thank you, general!" Abahai was surprised and happy. The trace of fear in his eyes disappeared in an instant. Wangzhu is a bright pearl on the plateau and the youngest daughter of Blind Yao.

It is the delicate mountain snow lotus that the Qingtang warriors want to pick.

Seeing Abahai jump out with more than a thousand of his men, the smile on Blind Yao's face disappeared without a trace. Each of these people Abahai took away was the bravest guard around him.

, I don’t know how many people will come back from this attack.

Mu Zhan did not make a sound this time, but silently looked at Abahai who was riding out. At this time, he could clearly feel that Blind Yao had indeed tried his best, otherwise Abahai would not have

Take action, this is the most powerful warrior under Blind Yao.

Behind the five hundred armored cavalry were three thousand iron kites led by Xin Jian.

Speaking of which, these three thousand iron kites are the backbone of Xiao Ding's cavalry. If the five hundred armored cavalry can only be used as a weapon to break the formation and rush into the formation, these three thousand iron kites are the foundation of Xiao Ding's cavalry across the northwest.

.

Hundreds of thousands of Hengshan Dangxiang and more people from the Northwest Song Dynasty were proud to join Tie Yaozi.

But there is only a quota of 3,000.

Becoming an iron kite means higher military pay, higher status, faster promotion, and of course ubiquitous respect, and the last one is the reason why these northwest men flock to it.

location.

Only when one dies in battle can a new one come in. This makes this iron kite stronger and stronger as it fights.

These people are all wearing leather armor, but on the key parts, they are inlaid with iron plates. Even the war horses are also equipped with leather armor. This greatly increases the battlefield protection ability of the iron kite without increasing it.

What a burden. And their war horses are also carefully selected. Although they are not as good as the war horses equipped with iron cavalry, these war horses do not have to bear such a weight. On the battlefield, their fighting

The durability is far beyond what these armored cavalry can match.

Each iron kite is equipped with a spear, a ring-headed sword, an enemy-defeating bow, and a quiver on the left and right sides of the saddle, each containing about twenty feathered arrows.

At this moment, the iron kite was closely following the armored cavalry, and they were divided into three parts.

One followed closely behind the armored cavalry and advanced forward.

The other two parts, one on the left and the other on the right, rush forward.

The armored cavalry is like a big hammer, smashing all obstacles on the road ahead.

The iron kite is like a three-pronged fork. Commander Xin Jian and deputy commander Zhou Huan each led a team, and they quickly expanded Xiao Ding's military exploits.

Compared with the personal guards led by Xiao Ding, their fighting methods are much more normal. First, they use enemy bows to shoot at each other, and then they use spears to stab. These spears are disposable and can be used.

Throw it as it passes, and finally pull out the Huanshou sword to engage the enemy at hand-to-hand combat.

Behind Tie Yaozi was the main force of seven thousand cavalry commanded by Tuoba Yangwei.

Because the enemies in front were hit repeatedly and continuously by the armored cavalry and iron kites, when it was their turn, the pressure had been greatly reduced. Most of the time, they were just harvesting the frightened enemies ahead.

Why is Yuzang Huama so obedient to Xiao Dingfu now? When he first defected to the Song Dynasty, he was so stubborn that he thought that with the tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, the people of the Song Dynasty would rely heavily on him.

But after becoming Xiao Ding's subordinate and seeing the strength of Xiao Ding's subordinates, he immediately became honest.

He knew very well that if Xiao Ding wanted to deal with him, he could deal with him without any effort.

Of course, in addition to Xiao Ding's strength, Xiao Ding's personality charm also convinced Yu Zang Huama. In the past, Yu Zang Huama had met officials and generals of the Song Dynasty, and all of them were extremely arrogant. When fighting the enemy

, and even regarded them as tools to consume the enemy's troops and arrows, but Xiao Ding was not like this. Just like now, Xiao Ding personally led his troops to charge, while Yu Zanghuama led his two thousand cavalry.

You can only deal with the enemy's partial troops on both sides.

There is only one word difference between "charge me" and "charge me", but the courage brought to the soldiers are two completely different concepts.
