Seven hundred and eightieth chapters defeated like a mountain
Chapter 780: Defeated like a mountain
There was a melee ahead. Achilles worked hard and managed to clear a passage for the 50,000 cavalry. With the slight shaking of the ground, the speed of the 50,000 cavalry gradually increased, like a sudden storm on the plains, overwhelming mountains and seas.
They rushed towards the Hetao army.
The direction of their attack is where the Huben Legion in the Hetao is. Among the many legions in the Hetao, the Huben Legion is the one with the most stable offensive and defensive capabilities. Although the commander of the legion, Li Xiaomo, is not as dazzling as Feng Jing and others, he is still the top young man on the mainland of China.
Under his command, the famous general, the infantry of the Huben Corps fought and retreated, using strategic depth to consume the opponent's impact.
The heavily armored camel soldiers are worthy of being Sashan's elite in all battles, and the cavalry behind them are also the best among Sashan's hundreds of thousands of troops. Their combat effectiveness is naturally extraordinary.
As soon as they came into contact with the Hetao army, the infantry defense line of the Huben Army was easily torn apart by the opponent. The sound of breaking spears and lances continued to sound, and countless soldiers fell silently under the iron hooves of the opponent.
However, it is too early to defeat the frontal defense of the Huben Legion just like this! The Sashan Cavalry is indeed elite, but the Huben Legion is not a coward. As Haotian's personal army, they fight in the north and south.
Every time there is a large-scale battle, they must be the backbone of the battle. Years of military service have already tempered their composure and tenacity.
Under the command of Li Xiaomo, the Huben Legion was like a huge whirlpool, constantly involving the attacking Sashan cavalry, using close combat methods to prevent the opponent from exerting the impact of the cavalry. As a result, the impact and power of the cavalry were lost.
The combat effectiveness of mobile cavalry is not as good as that of ordinary infantry.
Achilles on the spectator stand was so angry that he stamped his feet: "Inform Barbarol that if he can't break through the defense line of the Loop, he will cut off his head!"
The soldier hurriedly went to deliver the order, but soon returned, knelt on his knees and said: "Your Majesty, General Barbarol has gone to see the great god Sani!"
"What?" Achilles' burly body swayed, and he quickly grabbed the railing beside him and breathed heavily: "Let Hajiro take over the command of the camel soldiers, continue fighting, and break through the opponent at all costs.
Defense line! Sibu Gaza, what are you doing now? If you don’t go into battle, we will be finished!”
The battle line between the two armies was in chaos, with iron horses crisscrossing back and forth. The ground was covered with corpses and wounded soldiers. The frightening attacks with spears and swords were as dense as a storm, with knives, axes, and arrows flying all the time.
Every minute and every second, a large number of soldiers from both armies fell in this killing field. Brave knights fell one after another, and horses without knights ran out of the sand and dust, with bloodshot eyes and messy temple hairs.
However, both sides were willing to go all out, and more soldiers surged forward, gritting their teeth and preparing to swallow them even to the bone.
"After all, Achilles is not a qualified general. How can he use cavalry to make a surprise attack in such a melee? Without enough space, the cavalry cannot exert their due combat effectiveness. Like us, all the cavalry have been deployed,
Located on the flank of the army, ready to attack at any time." Haotian said with a smile.
Luo Xiang turned back in the midst of his busy schedule and said: "Achilles was ill and sought medical treatment urgently, but the combat effectiveness of their camel soldiers is indeed quite strong. If used in the right place, our army's casualties will definitely be huge.
Li Xiaomo is a talented person, not bad."
If Li Xiaomo could hear Luo Xiang's words, I'm afraid he would be very pleased. People like Luo Xiang are always stingy with their praise. But Li Xiaomo is leading the Tiger Army and Sa Shan in a bloody battle, so naturally he can't hear it
This is a word of praise.
Zhang Yuewan said curiously: "Husband, didn't you say that Sashan has three lines of reinforcements? Why are only the reinforcements from Thebes City arriving now? Are there the other two groups?"
"Now that we have found out the traitor Jiang Wangshan, we will not let Sashan get her wish. The 70,000 private soldiers of the nobles in Ulens City led by Tiahar have been intercepted by Wu Xiaolangjun in the wild. As for Gebei Pu
Sri Lanka's 50,000 reinforcements, haha, the dragon army had arrived in the southern sea of Sashan a few days ago. Under the leadership of He Bugui, they led all the combatants to land quietly. Gobe Si, I'm afraid he didn't even die.
I don’t even know.” Haotian laughed.
Zhang Yuewan took a breath of air. She also knew the news about Shu Lan leading the expedition to the ocean. But she never expected that Hetao would be so crazy. At this point, all the legionnaires in Hetao had participated in the battle to destroy Sashan.
Zhang Yuewan is still a little worried. The maximum number of combatants in the Jiaolong Legion is 100,000, but including those who operate the boats, the total number is about 140,000. The Navy is different from the Army in that they have very high requirements for individual combat capabilities.
However, the cooperation between them is not perfect. Although He Bugui can catch the opponent by surprise during the landing operation, he also relies on short attacks and long attacks.
"Husband, isn't this too risky?"
Haotian snorted coldly: "We don't want this either. If Wubi Cangxiong can follow the order and march westward from Luoche, then the Snow Wolf Army can completely block Tiyahar's Urens reinforcements, and Wu Xiaolang
You can easily wipe out Gobepus's reinforcements from Sykara! Wubi Cangxiong, he is really impatient to live!"
Zhang Yuewan shuddered and glanced at Qiu Mu, only to find that there was also a hint of worry on Qiu Mu's face. Haotian's words meant that the Bloody Plateau was really going to turn into a Bloody Plateau. They were not Snow Qingcheng, for Bloody
Gao Yuan is not that concerned, but who knows if Haotian's butcher knife will be swung to other places?
Zhang Yuewan wisely changed the topic: "Why were the Thebes reinforcements from Al Tietong arrived on the battlefield and intercepted them? If they were to be eliminated, there would be plenty of opportunities along the way."
Haotian was waiting for an answer when Luo Xiang said with a smile: "The opponents are all cavalry. If we want to destroy them in the wilderness, the cavalry power in the hands of the Blood Commander and the Xin Commander is limited. Therefore, they were deliberately placed on the edge of the battlefield because
Achilles is here, so Alletiertus has to fight hard and dare not run away at all. In other words, they must give up their own advantages and fight us in a positional battle, and this happens to be the most difficult time for the bloody commanders Xinshuai and the independent commanders.
Something to look forward to.”
After a pause, Luo Xiang continued: "Sashan will lose this battle. Al Tietong is the general of Sashan. He has no choice but to fight to the death. However, Memphis is different from the Western Region Allied Forces. When they see that something is wrong, they will definitely think
Sliding away will invisibly divide the other party. To put it simply, Achilles is a magnet. Whether it is Al Tietong or Sibu Gaza, although they know that moving forward is death, they have no choice."
"Sir, you are indeed brilliant." Zhang Yuewan said sincerely. Luo Xiang is the best strategist in the world, but in terms of strategizing and winning thousands of miles away, it is not that no one can compare with him, at least the mystery is not inferior to him. But to be right
Only Chu Xiangcheng could rival him in terms of human speculation and depth of scheming. The Three Talents of the Year were indeed well-deserved. Although Hao Fei died early, few people recited Hao Fei's deeds. But from Luo Xiang and Chu Xiang
On Cheng's body, Zhang Yuewan could still feel that Hao was very powerful.
However, what worries her more is that with the two old monsters Luo Xiang and Chu Xiangcheng here, those people with ulterior motives in China will not be able to stir up any trouble. It seems that the Zhang family is about to face a storm.
"Sir, it's time to attack." Haotian said slowly.
Luo Xiang turned his head and looked at the situation on the battlefield. If it were delayed for half an hour, the situation would become clearer. However, Haotian obviously hopes to reduce his losses as much as possible. In Haotian's view, the most precious
Or the lives of the soldiers.
Luo Xiang waved the command flag and shouted in a deep voice: "Send the order, prepare to attack!"
Nearly a million troops fought in the open wilderness, but Fengjing, who controlled 250,000 elite cavalry under his command, stayed leisurely in the safest corner of the right wing of the Hetao army, drinking wine by himself. No one dared
To disturb this extremely handsome young commander, even Xue Qingcheng stayed aside obediently.
Fengjing drinks, but is not addicted to alcohol. But now, Fengjing has drank three bottles of strong liquor. His fair and handsome face has turned red, and even the light coming from his eyes is bright red.
The messenger came in a hurry, but when he saw Fengjing's appearance, he was so frightened that he could not speak. Fengjing glanced at him and asked in a deep voice: "What is your order, my lord?"
The ordering soldier handed over the order arrow with both hands, swallowed his saliva, and said cautiously: "Go back to the Commander-in-Chief, Sir, please prepare to attack, Commander-in-Chief."
Feng Jing took the order arrow and the letter pressed with fire paint, looked at it carefully, and waved to the order soldier to signal him to retreat.
Xue Qingcheng and others quickly joined in. The 250,000 cavalrymen of the Falcon, Snow Lion, Feng Wu and Huben regiments gathered here. However, Feng Jing remained stationary, watching the comrades in front of him fighting in full swing, but here he was.
While drinking tea, Xue Qingcheng and others felt itchy. When they saw the military order being issued, they were all excited.
Feng Jing threw away the finished wine bag and said calmly: "Send the order to all the soldiers in the army to assemble and prepare for battle!"
Sitting astride his beloved horse Lingshuang, Fengjing slowly tightened the white mourning belt on his forehead. The senior generals in Hetao had a very bad habit. They didn't like to wear it when they went to the battlefield.
Helmets are worn, and hair is not tied up. Fengzong is no exception.
"Ahead, there is Sashan! After waiting for two years, we have finally arrived here. Soldiers, now is the time to use your blood to wash away the shame of the Battle of Dingzhou!" Feng Jing said in a deep voice, calmly
Looking at the Sa Shan army still fighting in front, he raised his pear gun high. The 250,000 cavalry behind him were solemn. Suddenly, Feng Jing's raised right hand pressed down hard: "Kill!"
"Kill!" 250,000 cavalry shouted in unison.
The thunder of horse hooves and the forest of swords and spears!
Fengjing's cavalry did not directly launch a fierce attack on the crowded frontal battlefield like Sashan, but bypassed the battlefield and charged in from the flanks of Sashan. The two wings of Sashan's army were originally newly trained recruits, with combat effectiveness and battlefield performance.
Their experience was quite limited. Under the invincible attack of the Hetao cavalry, the defense line suddenly collapsed.
Feng Jing held the pear flower gun tightly with both hands and took the lead to jump into the forest of swords and swords of Sa Shan's army. The flexible pear flower gun bloomed into dozens of gun flowers in his hands. Each gun flower that bloomed must be a Sa Shan.
The life of the Sa Shan soldier came to an end. Almost none of the Sa Shan soldiers who came within three meters of him survived.
The war horse was galloping, and his black hair was flying. Although Feng Zong was relatively thin, in the eyes of Sa Shan soldiers, this was no longer a person, but a god of death holding a death scythe.
More than 200,000 cavalry followed his back, constantly attacking in depth, and constantly expanding the results. Under the sharp attack of the Hetao cavalry, patches of rustic soldiers died on the horse's hooves without any resistance.
It was like a strong wind blowing wheat waves. Sashan's wings were not strong enough to begin with, and faced with such a frenzied attack by the Hetao cavalry, she was even unable to fight back.
Achilles was already worried about the situation on the frontal battlefield. Suddenly, another elite cavalry came in, making him pale. Demodiga's legs went weak at that time, and he actually collapsed to watch the battle.
On the stage, Mowaya's condition was slightly better, but her legs were still shaking.
"Block it, you must block it! Tell Duke Muhandsis that you must block the opponent's attack no matter what!" Achilles shouted in panic. Muhandsis led a hastily formed army of 100,000 men.
The fighting power of these noble private soldiers is very strong. As long as they can temporarily block the attack of the Hetao cavalry, the other soldiers will at least have time to adjust their formation.
Fengjing has experienced hundreds of battles, what kind of scene has he not experienced? After easily defeating the new soldiers on Sashan's left wing, Fengjing very skillfully drove the opponent to attack the position of the noble private soldiers in Sashan's rear. Those noble private soldiers were very powerful in combat.
Not bad, but they were not a regular army after all, and the nobles leading the army didn't understand military affairs at all. When they saw countless soldiers from their own side coming towards them, they didn't know how to deal with them.
The raging defeated army quickly broke up the formation of the nobles' private soldiers. Before these nobles could recover, the ferocious Hetao cavalry had already rushed in front of them. The nobles were frightened and quickly turned around and ran away in order to seek safety.
To seek shelter, they specifically chose places with a large number of their own family members to run to. With the same intention, the deserters immediately formed a torrent and rushed towards their own team behind them!
The formation of the aristocratic private troops in the back was still complete and had not yet engaged in battle. Seeing the shocking power of the Hetao cavalry beating the soldiers in front so embarrassed, and then being defeated like a tide passing by them, I felt inexplicable panic and fear.
The infection spread all of a sudden. Everyone could no longer care about the glory of Sani, and turned around and ran away with a crash.
Some rational nobles took up arms to stop the surging army, but it was of no avail. The torrent of thousands of people easily drowned them all, and in the end even they themselves were involuntarily trapped.
They fell into the flow of people fleeing. Countless Sashan soldiers were easily dispersed by their own people before they actually set foot on the battlefield.
The flow of people is getting bigger and bigger. Of the 400,000 troops under Achilles, only his 100,000 forbidden troops are the real elite. It is okay for the recruits to fight with the private soldiers of the nobles, but in the face of such a bad situation, there is a lack of military confidence.
They collapsed at the first touch, and the soldiers and nobles lost their minds and fell into hysteria. Under the crowding and chaos, countless people were trampled to death by their own people, and the disintegrating soldiers were as unstoppable as a torrent.
.
Seeing such a situation, Achilles let out a painful groan. Under the surprise attack of the Hetao cavalry, the noble private soldiers in the rear and the recruits on both wings were easily defeated by the opponent, and his 100,000 elite troops were completely defeated.
Caught in a melee, it was impossible to draw out any strength.
"Sashan, is this the end?" Acharius said with dull eyes and a depressed expression.
"Your Majesty, look, the troops from Hetao have been withdrawn!" At this moment, Mowaya suddenly shouted excitedly.
When Achilles heard this, he suddenly became energetic. He looked up and saw that the camp of the Hetao army was slowly retreating. The soldiers who had been entangled with the opponent also withdrew from the battlefield. Only the more than 20 people who were paying tribute
Ten thousand cavalrymen were still behind them, frantically mopping up the defeated Sashan soldiers.
"What do they want to do?" Achilles asked in confusion.
In addition to the 100,000 elite forbidden troops under his command, Sashan's 300,000-strong army has collapsed. If the Hetao army attacks with all its strength, it will not be difficult to completely annihilate itself. However, the Hetao main formation slowly left the battlefield, and the Fengjing cavalry killed them.
After a while, they also gave up the defeated troops and headed west, apparently preparing to cooperate with Xue Killing Xinke and others to wipe out all the troops under Al Tietong's command.
As Luo Xiang said, when Achilles's main formation collapsed and the Hetao cavalry swarmed in, the army under Al Tietong began to waver. Memphis was the one who escaped, and there were only less than 20,000 men left under his command.
If the cavalry fought head-on with Hetao, it would not even be enough to put a gap in the opponent's teeth. Naturally, the Western Region Allied Forces were not to be outdone. They turned their horses and fled with Memphis. They could work hard for Sashan, but forget about working hard.
However, their reaction speed was still a little slow. The leader of Guizi Kingdom Liedi and the leader of Wujiang Kingdom Huancui were unable to retreat in time and were easily intercepted by the Hetao army.
"I am Huancui, the king of the Borderless Kingdom, and I surrender! You can't kill me, but I can pay a large ransom!" Surrounded by countless Hetao cavalry, Huancui turned pale and howled like a slaughtering pig.
"What does this fat man say?" A cavalryman asked doubtfully: "Looking at his clothes, he should be a big shot."
Another cavalryman said disdainfully: "My lord has an order, kill him regardless of who he is." As he said that, his spear pierced Huancui's chest, and he threw Huancui's bloated body and fell off the horse, and was counted.
Thousands of cavalry trampled it and turned it into a pile of mud.
