At the beginning of its founding, the Huben Corps had only 20,000 infantry, led by Qi Pingzhi and the current commander of the Qilin Corps, Cheng Xiangxi. However, after the expansion, the Huben Corps was divided evenly between infantry and cavalry. In addition to Zhao Dawu, there were also Qi Pingzhi, Lu
He and Song Huanzhong are three infantry generals. Although the three of them are not from Qianqi of Qingyun Garrison, they are the first batch of soldiers who joined after the night attack on Dingzhou in Hetao. They are well-known fierce generals in Hetao.
The 50,000 Mandan cavalrymen who came from the east and west were blocked by Zhao Dawu, Lu He and others. Although the Mandan cavalry attacked like a tide, the Hetao infantry remained motionless, like rocks in the sea.
The huge waves were so huge that they still scattered in all directions when they hit them.
Haotian and Xin Jiao stood on the deck of the Qingyun with brothers Hao Jin in their arms. Looking at the bloody battlefield in front of them, Haotian couldn't help but let out another long sigh.
"Dad, are you unhappy?" Hao Jin asked doubtfully.
No matter what his mood was, Haotian always doted on his son. He never brought his bad mood to his son. He just said with a smile: "No, dad just thinks that he can no longer go to the battlefield, so he is a little sad."
Hao Jin tilted his neck as if understanding, and continued to look at the battlefield in front of him. Haotian patted Hao Jin's butt and said with a smile: "Jin'er, and An'er, you must remember that the stability of China is
, the well-being of the common people is at the expense of the bloody battles of these soldiers. Without them fighting to the death and guarding the borders, the common people would not be happy and well-being. Therefore, no matter when, you must pay attention to these soldiers who protect your home and country.
Show due respect to the soldiers."
The two brothers nodded honestly.
Zhang Yuewan and Qiu Mu stood behind Haotian. When they heard Haotian's words, they both frowned inadvertently. Until now, Haotian has not decided who his successor is. For the two
Children, Haotian treats them equally. Although the heir to the throne in the future will definitely come from one of the two, the situation is unclear, especially Zhang Yuewan, who has no idea how to place his bet.
Seeing the unwavering expressions of Luo Xiang and Xuanji, Zhang Yuewan felt a little angry. Haotian was obviously hiding this matter from her, Xue Qingcheng and others, but she also understood that if it weren't for the two of them having ulterior motives,
, then Haotian doesn’t have to be like this at all.
Two groups of Mandan cavalry attacked. Although other legions did not stop them, the Hetao soldiers did not mind rewarding them with a burst of arrows when they passed by. By the time they reached the Huben legion, the Hetao soldiers were already there.
Preparations are complete. One hundred thousand soldiers, under the control of Xuanji's command flag, have already completed the change of formation and preparations for battle.
"Archer, let go!" Zhao Dawu shouted loudly, and arrows rained down on the battlefield.
Under Xuanji's suggestion, the archers in Hetao no longer fired in volleys as before, but in three stages. All archers were divided into three rows. The archers in the first row retreated immediately after finishing shooting, and the archers in the second row immediately retreated.
The archers who have been prepared take a step forward and continue shooting. In this way, they can not only save their own physical strength to the greatest extent, but also maintain continuous lethality.
The Mandan soldiers are also battle-hardened veterans, and they naturally know how to protect themselves in such situations. All the cavalry are lowered and lying on their horses, and the entire formation is not chaotic at all. It can be seen from this that the Mandan soldiers
The quality is truly extraordinary.
After finally surviving this arduous journey, the Mandan cavalry finally had a head-on confrontation with the Hetao infantry. The galloping horses hit the shield of the Hetao infantry with thunderous force. The powerful impact forced the Hetao infantry behind the shield to retreat.
He took a step, but immediately pushed back, and the opponent's war horse let out a long neigh, apparently having been pierced by the spears lined with rivers.
"That's it, don't retreat even an inch!" Zhao Dawu chopped down a Mandan cavalryman with his sword, wiped the blood from his face, and shouted: "Happy!"
The Mandan cavalry who made the surprise attack were fully convinced that they would die, so their will to fight was almost crazy. Facing the dense forest of spears in the Hetao, the opponent did not dodge at all. Instead, they charged towards the Hetao camp without any fear.
When they came over, before they died, they threw their weapons one after another. Many Hetao soldiers died under their dying blows.
Facing such fanatical Mandan soldiers, the Hetao army became even more excited. Influenced by Haotian and the generals of the Hetao, the Hetao soldiers yearned more for the bloody battlefield, and they were eager to prove their bravery with their achievements on the battlefield.
.When you encounter a strong enemy, you will be stronger. Only truly strong enemies are worthy of being their opponents!
Haotian on the Qingyun saw his blood boiling with excitement. Xin Jiao understood and said with a smile: "Are you ready to go into battle yourself and fight?"
Haotian smiled awkwardly, he indeed had this intention.
Luo Xiang laughed on the side and said: "If my lord has this intention, he might as well lead three thousand soldiers to charge forward. To be honest, even I am very excited to meet such a strong opponent."
Haotian was overjoyed and quickly handed Hao Jin in his arms to Luo Xiang and said with a smile: "In that case, I won't be polite."
Luo Xiang took Hao Jin and said to Xin Jiao: "Mother, please go with us. I will take care of these two brothers for the time being."
Xin Jiao placed Hao'an on the ground and followed Haotian's side obediently. Xian Lianchen and Zhang Yuewan quickly took out Haotian's armor and weapons.
"I want to be a general like my father in the future." Hao Jin said with envy as he watched his aunts helping Haotian put on his armor.
Hao'an said quickly: "Brother, like father, must be the best general."
Haotian put on his armor, squatted down, pinched Hao Jin and Hao An's little faces, and said with a smile: "You guys wait here, don't cause trouble to your grandpa, do you hear me?"
The two brothers nodded obediently, but Hao Jin's eyes were full of cunning, and it was obvious that he didn't take Haotian's words seriously.
Haotian's personal soldiers only have three thousand people.
Adhering to the principle of preferring few to too many, Haotian has always had only 3,000 soldiers. Over the years, I don’t know how many soldiers have been buried on the battlefield, but the iron-clad camps and flowing soldiers, among the million-strong army in Hetao, every soldier has
We are proud to join Haotian's soldiers. They are the most loyal team in the Hetao army and the strongest shield of Haotian.
They swore to follow Haotian's footsteps to the death, no matter it was a mountain of swords, a sea of fire, or a foreign country, as long as Haotian's footsteps were there, it would be a battlefield for them to fight at any time.
"Soldiers, mount your horses and prepare to fight!"
Haotian let out a long roar, jumped on his horse neatly, looked around, and reviewed his troops, his eyes full of pride. After not setting foot on the battlefield for a long time, when Haotian put on his armor again and grasped the weapon again, there was something unexpected.
A long-lost sense of pride and joy.
Xin Jiao, Qiu Muxian Lianchen and Zhang Yuewan were riding horses around Haotian. Looking at Haotian who was full of energy and fighting spirit, he seemed to be completely different from the usual humble and plain Haotian. Xin Jiao suddenly understood in his heart why Luo Xiang was so
He was nervous about Haotian's body and safety, but still supported Haotian to go into battle in person, because Luo Xiang understood that the battlefield was Haotian's stage, this was his destination, and only here could he stimulate his fighting spirit and desire for life.
"Who will conquer the world for me, Haotian!" Haotian suddenly shouted.
"May the Lord wash the land with blood!" Three thousand soldiers responded in unison. The powerful voice suppressed the shouts of killing in the entire battlefield. The morale of the soldiers in Hetao suddenly lifted after hearing this, because they understood that their Lord was about to die.
Fight alongside them.
Haotian suddenly felt moved to tears. He didn't know why, but he just felt that his nose was sore. It was these ordinary soldiers who supported Hetao's impressive record of winning every battle, which made him feel so good since he was a child.
The Hetao Dingzhou has spread to the entire Chinese mainland and re-established the backbone of the entire Chinese nation.
"Soldiers, let's go!" Haotian drew his sword and pointed it slantingly at the sky. Three thousand soldiers also pointed their weapons slantingly at the sky, and boundless murderous aura suddenly filled the entire battlefield.
"kill!"
Haotian took the lead and charged forward with his sword brandished, but Xian Lianchen and others were not to be far behind. As the flags were fluttering, blood rained everywhere where Haotian passed.
While Haotian personally led the troops into battle, the battle at the east gate of Black Rock City became increasingly fierce.
Thirty thousand soldiers from Hetao, the most elite soldiers of the White Tiger Legion.
Many years later, when people later told about the Haotian Empire's campaign to destroy Mandan, they were quite emotional about the battle at the east gate of Black Rock City. Many people believed that this was the battle between the five generals of Hetao.
Dugu Yuming, one of them, was the biggest failure in decades of fighting on the battlefield. The Hetao army, which had more than 500,000 elite divisions, only deployed a mere 30,000 infantry here, and this was clearly the must-have for Mandan to break through.
Through the road.
This time, Mandan dispatched a total of 50,000 cavalry, and they were 50,000 heavy armored cavalry. They were the most powerful and destructive heavy cavalry in the entire Eastern Continent. These were also all the armored heavy cavalry of Mandan. It can be seen from this that
Mandan's determination.
However, Dugu only led 30,000 infantrymen to block here, and categorically ordered no one to reinforce them, otherwise military law would deal with them, which put the situation of these 30,000 infantrymen into an extremely dangerous situation.
The wind in May brought a bit of warmth, making Dugu's face warm. He took off his helmet and threw it aside, letting his long hair and white filial piety belt flutter in the breeze, with a sense of heroism.
Dugu's heart kept overflowing, and finally he couldn't help but let out a loud roar.
"All officers and men, listen to me, this time we only have 30,000 infantry, and the opponent's total strength is about 50,000, and they are all the most elite armored heavy cavalry of the Mandan Dynasty. Are you afraid?" Dugu snapped.
Chang shouted.
"Don't be afraid!" Thirty thousand soldiers replied in unison.
"I tell you first, we will not have any reinforcements! We can either defeat the opponent or die on the battlefield. These are the only two options. This commander has issued an order. Before we and Mandan decide the winner, any
No one is allowed to interfere in the battle between our two armies. Soldiers, do you have confidence?"
"have!"
"Today, I will let everyone in the world know who is the master of this sky! Who is the real king of land warfare! Now, if anyone is afraid, please retreat immediately." Dugu turned around and faced
With 30,000 soldiers, he shouted in a stern voice: "If you quit now, no one will call you a coward. But once you enter the battle, no one will be allowed to retreat! Either defeat the opponent and dominate the world, or die in battle and be shrouded in horse leather!"
"Fell in battle and shrouded in horse leather! Died in battle and shrouded in horse leather!" Thirty thousand soldiers shouted almost crazily. Everyone understood that there was no way out now, but this kind of desperate battle aroused the hearts of the soldiers even more.
High morale.
Hearing this, Dugu suddenly laughed loudly: "Well, you are worthy of being a soldier of our White Tiger Legion! Now I am standing here. The battle is not over yet. I will never take a step back, otherwise everyone can kill me!"
"
Several huge door holes suddenly appeared in the east wall of Black Rock City. In just a moment, countless cavalry in armor surged out of the city. However, what surprised Mandan was that Hetao did not take this opportunity to attack.
Instead, he had a lot of time to wait for himself to organize his formation.
"Hetao Dugu Yuming is here, who is coming!" Dugu suddenly shouted.
"The vicissitudes of Mandan Yelu are here!"
"It turns out to be King Langxie! I only have these 30,000 men under my command. King Langxie dares to fight to the death with me! I promise that before the battle between us is over, no other troops will join us in Hetao. And
As long as you can defeat our army, we in Hetao will never have the troops to pursue you! Of course, the premise is that you don’t run away first!”
Hearing this, Li Donggao quickly whispered beside Dugu: "Commander, isn't this too risky? Besides, if you allow the other party to escape, the lord can't explain it to you."
"If the other party successfully escapes, it can only mean one thing, that is, I and the 30,000 soldiers behind me have been wiped out, so there is no need to represent the commander." Dugu snorted coldly: "Of course Mandan's armored heavy cavalry
Tough, but how can we, the White Tiger Legion, be weak? If we don’t even have this bit of heroism, how can we dominate the world?"
Upon hearing this, Mandan fell into silence. Yelu Canghai smiled bitterly. In fact, he had no choice at all. If he fled without fighting, Mandan's military morale would be greatly affected. Although he now occupied
Although he has an advantage, Dugu Yuming has been the most outstanding general of the Qingfeng Empire more than ten years ago, and is the top infantry combat master in the entire Chinese continent. It is not easy to defeat him.
Yelu Vicissitudes frowned and said loudly: "Do you really mean what Dushuai said?"
"Of course I take it seriously. I will give you another choice. If King Langxie is willing to fight me, then as long as you can kill me, my Hetao army will no longer block your way." Dugu said confidently.
Yelu Cangsang's face suddenly turned pale with anger. To have a brother like Yelu Canglang, it was obvious that Yelu Cangsang, who had experienced many battles in the past, was not a weakling. However, more than thirty years of kingly life had emptied his body.
A duel with Dugu Yuming, who was famous even in the entire Chinese dynasty, was tantamount to seeking death.
When Yelu Canghai heard this, he naturally knew Yelu Cangsang's thoughts, and shouted loudly: "Stop using sweet words, just let our soldiers win in one fell swoop!"
Dugu laughed loudly: "I had known that Langxie King Yelu Cangsang was a coward, but he would not have had the guts. Soldiers, I am with you, commander-in-chief!"
Yelu Vicissitudes was furious. He waved his sword and shouted loudly: "Whoever can take off the head of the Dugu traitor will be given this sword!"
"kill!"
Fifty thousand Mandan's armored heavy cavalry slowly increased in speed at a slow rate. The heavy cavalry carried a huge load. In addition to the soldiers on horseback, there were also cavalry and war horses carrying more than a hundred kilograms of iron armor. Therefore, although the protection
It has great strength, but poor maneuverability. The war horse gains speed very slowly, and it is quite difficult to stop.
"Mandan warriors, charge!" Yelu Canglang raised his sword and was the first to rush out. The armored heavy cavalry is the most elite team in the Mandan, and it is also the army with the highest loyalty and the strongest will to fight. Even if
Even in such an environment, he still maintains a high fighting spirit.
Fifty thousand cavalry pressed against the Hetao infantry formation with thundering force. Two hundred thousand horse hooves stamped on the ground at the same time, making the whole world seem to be shaking rhythmically. However, the Hetao infantry camp remained motionless, and Dugu's flag remained high.
Fluttering, the black shield and the strange car shining with white light complement each other.
Yelu Canghai suddenly had a bad premonition, but once the heavy cavalry accelerated, it would be difficult to stop. About five hundred meters away from the Hetao infantry, a dazzling light suddenly flashed into Yelu Canghai's eyes, which were originally flat.
A raging fire suddenly broke out on the ground.
The Mandan war horses were affected by the fire and suddenly became restless. Many Mandan cavalrymen were thrown off their horses due to their carelessness and were trampled to pieces by the cavalry behind them.
Fortunately, the skills of the Mandan cavalry were good. They quickly stabilized the mood of the horses and quickly passed through the sea of fire. The Mandan cavalry was already close to the front line of the Hetao infantry.
One hundred meters, only one hundred meters, with only two breaths, the armored heavy cavalry can fight the Hetao infantry at close range. As the most elite cavalry in the Mandan, they have their own pride and reserve. They believe that,
Even the elite troops of Baijing, led by Cassimbas himself, could not stop their offensive with equal strength on such a vast plain, not to mention that Hetao was still at a disadvantage.
"Throw the spear, let go!" Dugu shouted violently, and nearly ten thousand javelins flew out of the air with a fierce whistling sound. This was Dugu's fixed equipment when he was in the White Ear Army. The three-foot long spear was thrown when the spear thrower ran with all his strength.
When it is launched, it can completely pierce the breastplate of a heavy armored cavalry. Compared with spears, throwing spears are lighter and easier to carry, and their power is not much inferior to spears.
