Chapter 232: Encounter on a narrow road [Lifting the ban]
Youyun Sixteen Prefectures are one of Qingfeng's food bases. In order to prevent the wind and sand in the north, most of the people here have planted a lot of poplar trees and other protective forests on the edges of the land. Although they are only sparsely distributed, they are separated by
At a distance of five or six miles, the 20,000 cavalrymen who had carefully ambushed them could not be discovered at all. The Northeastern cavalrymen were obviously impatient. In the dark snow rolled up by their horses' hooves, they headed toward Gubei County with murderous intent.
go.
Looking at the Northeastern Cavalry who was pulled into a long snake formation, a sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of Xin Ke's mouth. It can be said that the Northeastern Cavalry has been running non-stop for four hours. Although it is not at the end of its battle, it is still exhausted. Although it is waiting.
Maybe the effect will be better in a while, but Xinke doesn't want to take this risk. We are still forty miles away from Gubei County. After defeating this cavalry, the Hetao cavalry can also take the opportunity to sweep away the opponent's 30,000 infantry in Gubei County.
.If the distance is too close, then the enemy troops in Gubei County may notice the movement and all retreat to the county seat, which will be troublesome.
Following Xinke's order, the 20,000-strong Hetao cavalry were like tigers descending the mountain, rushing into the Northeastern cavalry formation at lightning speed. Xinke did not choose to intercept in front, but broke through
He clicked on the flanks of the Northeastern cavalry and immediately cut the Northeastern cavalry into two sections. Zhang Xingxin and Liu Zhiya were left leading 15,000 cavalrymen to block the rear half of the enemy army, while Xinke led 5,000 cavalrymen and broke through directly.
Open up the Northeast Cavalry team and kill them directly from bottom to top.
The formation of the Northeastern cavalry was longer, so the thickness of the army was thinner. Xinke was so brave. Moreover, they were attacking from behind. Before the Northeastern cavalry could turn their horses, they were already attacked by Xinke's double-edged sword.
The ax cut it in half from behind. The Hetao cavalry behind them was not to be outdone, like a dragon swimming down the river. Before the Northeast cavalry could even change their formation, countless soldiers were cut down from their horses.
It's impossible to survive.
Hejimul and Jin Zongwu, who were at the front of the team, were naturally shocked when they encountered a surprise attack. However, although Jin Zongwu was just a talkative figure, Hejimul was a veteran who had experienced many battles.
The disciples of Cassimbas, after all, have inherited some of Cassimbas' skills. Under such circumstances, Hekimul made a prompt decision and entangled Xinge with a rebel army before Xinge's cavalry arrived.
He and Jin Zongwu led the five thousand cavalry at the front towards both sides and quickly formed a formation to deal with Xing's upcoming offensive.
The entanglement of more than 10,000 cavalrymen still bought the Northeastern Cavalry a lot of time, but the price they paid was that at least 6,000 of the more than 10,000 cavalrymen were killed on the spot, while the price paid by the Hetao cavalry was pitifully small. The cavalrymen were fighting against each other.
When cavalry, the most feared thing is that the opponent breaks through from behind. Because once the formation is formed, the cavalry is not as easy to adjust the formation as the infantry. Especially the heavy cavalry, which has the strongest breakthrough ability, they have to change the formation.
The formation was even more difficult. Fortunately, although there were 10,000 heavy cavalry among the 30,000 Northeastern cavalry, they fell behind because the heavy cavalry was slightly slower. But even so, the Northeastern Cavalry still changed formations for them.
Pay a great price. Often when the Northeastern cavalry is running, the Hetao Cavalry's saber has been handed over from behind, and when fighting from behind, the Northeastern Cavalry can only exert half of its strength at most, while the Hetao Cavalry relies on
The impact force of the war horse is basically one sword. Even if it cannot kill the opponent, the powerful force is enough to knock the opponent off the horse. In the galloping cavalry team, rolling off the horse basically means death. Northeast Cavalry
I also thought about running faster to avoid the attack from behind by the Hetao cavalry. However, there were densely packed cavalry in front of them, and they couldn't get in. The Hetao cavalry didn't care about this. When they saw the Northeast cavalry in front of them, they just stabbed them. No.
Seeing this, the few Northeastern cavalrymen didn't care about so much in order to save their lives. They simply stabbed the person in front of them and ran away first. Many Northeastern cavalrymen fell to themselves in this way.
Under the sword of his comrades.
Putting aside the current tactical advantages of the Hetao cavalry, the Hetao cavalry has two obvious advantages over the Northeast cavalry. One is the physical strength of the soldiers. In fact, from a relatively equal perspective, the physical fitness of the Hetao cavalry is compared to that of the Northeast cavalry.
The Northeast cavalry is a little worse. Although the Hetao cavalry is also well-trained, and their system has been greatly improved in these days, the physique of the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms in the Northeast is better than that of the Qingfeng soldiers, and they have grown up in the ice and snow of the north for a long time.
, are naturally more adapted to this cold climate. However, after a full four hours of traveling back and forth, the Northeast soldiers were severely exhausted in both physical strength and energy, while the Hetao cavalry was recharging their energy.
Next, the difference is naturally obvious.
The second advantage of the Hetao cavalry is the war horses under their crotches. Qingfeng's war horses are divided into three levels. The best ones are naturally the plateau horses from the Bloody Plateau, followed by the Dayuan horse variants from the Northwest Second Road and the Western Regions. Again, You
The war horses of Yunliuzhou. Compared with Qingfeng, the quality of the war horses of the Three Northeastern Kingdoms should be at the level of the Dawan horse variant. Therefore, in terms of the quality of the war horses, the Northeastern cavalry is already slightly inferior, and the Northeastern cavalry has also passed
After several hours of running around, the sprinting power of the war horses was completely incomparable to that of the Hetao cavalry. In addition, under the leadership of the commander, the combat effectiveness of the Hetao cavalry was even more vivid.
Among the many cavalry generals in Hetao, Xin Ke was originally the representative who was best at fighting tough battles. The lethality and destructive power of his double-edged battle ax was not as good as even the blood-killing butcher knife. However, there is also Xin Ke in blood-killing.
What is incomparable to Xin Ke is that the mountain under his crotch is enough to make all local cavalry frightened. If these more than 10,000 Northeastern cavalry are fighting head-on with Xin Ke, although their defense line is also likely to be attacked by Xin Ke's double-edged swords,
Tomahawks broke through, but it was impossible for them to cause such huge losses, and they could at least cause some damage to the Hetao cavalry. However, the current formation of the Northeast cavalry was in chaos, and Xinke entered the formation from the rear where the cavalry was weakest.
, so the Northeastern Cavalry had to pay a huge price for their carelessness.
After more than half an hour of fighting, the Hetao cavalry finally broke through the formation of the Northeast Cavalry. At this time, Hejimuler and Jin Zongwu had already organized the five thousand soldiers they had brought out at the beginning. As soon as they saw the Hetao cavalry,
The cavalry rushed out and immediately attacked the Hetao cavalry without hesitation. In order to fight the Hetao cavalry at a fair angle, Hekimul and Jin Zongwu did not hesitate to abandon more than ten thousand cavalry to buy themselves time.
Now that they finally have such an opportunity, they will naturally not let it go. The Northeastern cavalry who survived after being pierced by the Hetao cavalry also came back to their senses at this time. At the same time, they also raised their weapons and headed towards the tail of the Hetao cavalry.
Come and kill.
Naturally, Xin Ke would not let the Northeast Cavalry retaliate with his own body. He raised his double-edged battle ax high and Xin Ke let out a long roar: "Brothers, when we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. Charge with me!" Howl!
At the end of the sound, the engraved war horses were already killing Hejimul and Jin Zongwu who were coming towards them like arrows.
"First take my axe!" As soon as the cavalry from both sides approached, the battle axes engraved on the letter were raised high and struck at Jin Zongwu like lightning.
Jin Zongwu's face changed. Just by looking at the momentum of Xin Ke's ax blow, he knew that he would never be able to catch the axe. Xin Ke's bravery is known to the world. Think about how brave Ji Leyan's Elegy is, and he can just throw out the spear.
Song Junlin, one of the top ten heroes in China, was seriously injured, but when he faced Xing Ke, he was not as good as him. Jin Zongwu did not think that he was a strong man like Yan Lege. At the critical moment of life and death, Jin Zongwu put his feet in the stirrups, and Ren Chao
A soldier beside him flew out. The soldier was caught off guard and was knocked off his horse by Jin Zongwu. Then he was trampled to pieces by countless horse hooves without saying a word. At this time, the double-edged battle ax engraved on the letter had already fallen.
When he got on Jin Zongwu's horse, he only heard a scream from the horse, and it was actually split in half by Xin Ke's axe. Xin Ke let out a long roar, obviously losing interest in Jin Zongwu, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and the battle ax was as fast as lightning.
He retracted it and slashed diagonally towards Hekimur on the other side.
Hekimur had no time to dodge, so he concentrated all his strength on his arms. The mace in his hand collided with the engraved double-edged battle ax without any fancy. Hekimur only felt a tightness in his chest.
A mouthful of blood spurted out immediately, and his hands were numb and without any strength. Fortunately, the cavalry moved very fast even during the battle. Hekimul and Xinke only had this round of fighting time, otherwise Xinke
If he were to make up for it with an axe, even if Hejimu'er was a Daluo Jinxian descending to earth, he would definitely be killed on the spot.
Seeing that their coach was so brave, the Hetao cavalry who were following behind were naturally very excited. At this time, they finally fully demonstrated the confidence they had developed during this long period of victory and the skills they had honed through these days of devilish training.
Although they were followed by a pack of wolves, they were not afraid because they believed that as long as they followed Xin Ke, they would never fail.
The confrontation between the two cavalry was actually very short, that is, the distance between the two sides from contact to separation. However, although the time was short, the losses of both sides were not light. But in general, the Hetao cavalry with high fighting spirit took the advantage.
, at least Xinke still has close to 4,000 cavalry behind him, and after Hekimul and Jin Zongwu joined the more than 4,000 cavalry behind them, their number was only less than double that of Xinke's cavalry.
