People are like tigers, horses are like dragons!
Yuwen Chengchao took the lead, holding a sword in his hand and staring at Tang Kaijia.
It was impossible for Tang Kaijia to imagine that Long Ruijun, who was trapped in the city, would dare to go out of the city to attack the camp.
And Yuwen Chengchao was just beyond his imagination.
The continuous attacks during the day caused heavy casualties to the Liaodong Army, which directly caused the morale of the Liaodong Army to sink to the bottom. After retreating, the wailing of many wounded soldiers made the soldiers feel even more depressed.
It was extremely quiet all the time in the camp.
But even so, all the soldiers, like Tang Kaijia, only felt that since the defenders in the city relied on the city to gain an advantage, they must huddle in the city and wait for reinforcements from other reinforcements from the Long Rui Army. Before that, they would send Ji
Pingcheng used it as a turtle shell for protection.
Therefore, some soldiers were still on guard that other reinforcements might arrive, but they never expected that the defenders in the city would be so bold and go out directly from the city to attack the camp at night.
Precisely because no one expected it, Yuwen Chengchao caught the Liaodong Army by surprise.
Yuwen Chengchao was not a reckless person. If he was not sure, he would not dare to take such a big risk.
Of course he knew that if he rushed out of the city to attack the camp, once he fell into the enemy's formation, he would easily be eaten by the enemy.
To be successful, two conditions must be met.
First of all, it is necessary to have well-trained, brave and capable cavalry. This cavalry team must advance and retreat in an orderly manner, and its combat capabilities must be extremely excellent.
If there were not six hundred dragon-scale imperial guards, he would never dare to rush out of the city to attack the camp.
The strength of the Dragon Scale Forbidden Army has been thoroughly demonstrated in this city defense battle.
Inflicting heavy casualties on the Liaodong Army at a very small cost, the Dragon Scale Forbidden Army is unparalleled in both combat effectiveness and willpower.
This forbidden army is an incomparably sharp sword. When the sword is unsheathed, it is invincible.
Secondly, the purpose of attacking the camp is certainly not to annihilate enemy soldiers.
After all, there were thousands of enemy troops outside the city, many times the number of our own. Even if the cavalry came out to annihilate all the enemy troops, it would be a fool's errand.
And for this purpose, it is easy to fall into the enemy's formation. Once the cavalry is unable to form an impact, it is surrounded by several times the enemy and falls into a melee. We are among the enemies, and you are among us. Such a situation is very difficult for the cavalry.
It's a disaster.
Therefore, Yu Wencheng's attack on the camp had only one purpose, and that was to capture the thief first and capture the king first.
If he hadn't seen Tang Kaijia's extremely conspicuous tent at the top of the city, Yuwen Chengchao might not have acted rashly.
He had already judged that there was only one reason why Qin Xiao's reinforcements had not arrived, and that was that something unexpected happened on the way.
If the reinforcements can solve the problem, they will definitely come quickly for reinforcements, but Qin Xiao's failure to show up can only prove that the other side must be in a huge crisis.
Although it is quite safe to stick to Jiping, Yuwen Chengchao is worried about the situation over Qin Xiao, so it is impossible to stay in the city with peace of mind.
If he could defeat the Liaodong Army outside the city, he might be able to free up his hands to reinforce Qin Xiao.
Therefore, this night attack can only succeed and cannot fail.
Except for the dead and wounded Forbidden Army, he directly formed the remaining Forbidden Army. Before leaving the city, everyone had a good meal and a short rest. Taking advantage of the darkness, he identified the enemy general's camp and did not hesitate again.
, led more than 500 Forbidden Army cavalry directly out of the city.
When they left the city, no one on the Liaodong Army side even noticed.
When the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded like raindrops, the officers and soldiers of the Liaodong Army discovered a terrifying scene.
Hundreds of cavalry formed an arrow formation, and Yu Wenchao took the lead. The hundreds of cavalry were like sharp arrows shot from Jiping City. Before the enemy could react, they had already plunged into the enemy camp.
middle.
The morale of the Liaodong Army was already low. Facing such a cavalry that regarded death as home, the Liaodong Army was completely devastated.
Although some Liaodong soldiers quickly organized themselves in a hurry and wanted to form a formation to meet the enemy, Yuwen Chengchao and the Forbidden Army cavalry did not give them a chance at all. They cut down everyone they saw in their path, and screams were heard.
From the beginning to the end, the formation of the Forbidden Army was not scattered and always maintained a complete formation.
Yuwen Chengchao only had the enemy's main camp in his eyes.
All obstacles on the way to the camp will be ruthlessly destroyed with the saber.
For the Liaodong Army, the most deadly thing was the distribution of camps.
Because it was necessary to expand the scope of the attack when attacking Jiping, the Liaodong Army set up camps horizontally facing the city. Although the formation would expand the scope of the attack, the depth of the camp would be very thin.
Although the general's tent was deployed at the rear, the protection in front was very weak and could easily be penetrated by the cavalry.
Even if the Liaodong soldiers on both wings discovered that the Chinese army was under attack and wanted to move in for protection, it was already too late.
The breakthrough ability of the sharp arrow formation is extremely sharp. The cavalry on both sides of the formation are holding sabers to kill, while a large number of cavalry in the middle, protected by their companions on both sides, can use their bows and arrows with ease, causing a large number of casualties to the enemy.
Qian Siyi was shot through the neck by an arrow and fell off his horse. Tang Kaijia didn't even think about it, mounted his horse and ran away. At this time, he didn't care about his soldiers at all.
In fact, at this time, he had no chance to organize his troops to face the enemy.
Yuwen Chengchao came too fast, like a gust of wind. If he didn't leave now, he would definitely die.
After Tang Kaijia sobered up, he couldn't even put on the horned helmet. His clothes and armor were in a mess. He held a knife in one hand and shook the horse's reins desperately with the other hand, just to escape with his life.
Since Yu Wen Chengchao had his eyes on him, how could he let him escape from under his nose? He galloped after him, his eyes never leaving Tang Kaijia's figure.
While Tang Kaijia was running for his life, he looked back and saw Yu Wen Chengchao leading a large number of cavalry in hot pursuit. He was even more frightened and wished he could grow a pair of wings.
Yuwen Chengchao and the imperial cavalry rode almost all real-feathered horses, which not only had sufficient endurance but also were fast, and their distance from Tang Kaijia was getting closer and closer.
Nie Laoben followed closely behind Yu Wen Chengchao. When he saw Tang Kaijia fleeing for his life, he did not hesitate. He put away his sword, took his bow, bent the bow and set an arrow, and aimed at Tang Kaijia. With a "swish" sound, the arrow was like a shooting star, and "pop"
With one sound, it had already hit the hip of Tang Kaijia's horse.
With Nie Laoben's archery skills, it was actually not difficult to shoot Tang Kaijia from behind.
However, he didn't know what Yu Wen Chengchao was thinking, and thought that if Yu Wen Chengchao wanted to capture Tang Kaijia alive, killing him with one arrow would be a bad thing, so he just shot Tang Kaijia's mount.
The war horse was shot in the buttocks, and it immediately hurt. Amidst the long hiss, a man stood up. Tang Kaijia was caught off guard. In addition, he was too tall and his body was too heavy. He fell directly from the horse.
When I got up and held the sword in both hands, I was already surrounded by a group of cavalry, three levels inside and three outside.
Tang Kaijia saw Yu Wen Chengchao looking down at him from a high position on horseback, holding the sword tightly with both hands, roaring, and rushed towards Yu Wen Chengchao.
However, Yuwen Chengchao had already dismounted from his horse and rushed towards Tang Kaijia.
Tang Kaijia slashed down with his sword, and Yu Wencheng dodged sideways. He raised the sword from bottom to top, and blood spurted out. Tang Kaijia's right arm had been cut off at shoulder level. Amid the screams, Yu Wencheng spun around and had already dodged.
Behind Tang Kaijia, he kicked Tang Kaijia on the waist. Tang Kaijia couldn't control his body, staggered forward a few steps and fell to the ground.
Yuwen Chengchao cut off Tang Kaijia's arm in one move, but he also intended to show off his skills in front of the imperial cavalry.
He knew that these cavalrymen were all outstanding warriors. To make these guards fear him from the bottom of their hearts, he had to show his extraordinary skills.
Tang Kaijia fell to the ground, blood was flowing from his broken arm, and he was in terrible pain. He wanted to struggle to get up, but two cavalrymen had already dismounted and stepped forward to hold him down.
The two guards were very powerful. Although Tang Kaijia was very powerful, he was unable to move for a while.
Yuwen Chengchao led this group of cavalry to charge directly into the camp in frontal formation. When chasing Tang Kaijia, he had already left the enemy camp behind. However, this group of cavalry maintained an orderly formation from beginning to end, but at this time they all passed through the enemy camp.
, although the enemy camp was in chaos and shouting, no one could catch up.
When Yuwen Chengchao led his men to capture Tang Kaijia, the cavalry in the rear group had already formed a formation in a tacit understanding, turning their horses' heads in circles to face the enemy camp to prevent the enemy troops in the camp from attacking.
However, Qian Siyi had been shot dead, Tang Kaijia had been captured alive, the camp was in chaos, and no one could stop the counterattack.
On the contrary, the cavalry attacked the camp at night. The screams earlier had made many Liaodong soldiers scared. Under the night, most of the Liaodong soldiers only knew that the enemy troops came out of the city to kill, but they had no idea how many people came to kill them.
.
Although the Liaodong Army was well-trained, its generals did not respond in time. Many soldiers were at a loss and naturally fell into chaos.
Yuwen Chengchao captured Tang Kaijia alive, but he also knew that everything was not over yet. These thousands of Liaodong soldiers should not be underestimated. He immediately organized his cavalry to rearrange themselves according to the previous plan. Several more cavalrymen took out special arrows and lit them with fire sticks.
He took out the oil packet at the front of the arrow and shot it into the sky. At one time, several rockets shot straight into the sky.
Soon, shouts of killing were heard from the side of Jiping City, and under the darkness, a large number of cavalry rushed out of the city.
Yuwen Chengchao raised his hand, and several cavalrymen behind him took out their horns and blew them at the same time. Under the night, the sound of the horns spread far away.
Yuwen Chengchao knew that Zhao Shengtai had led his troops out in the city.
According to the prior arrangements, Yuwen Chengchao led his troops to attack the camp at night. Before setting off, he had mobilized Zhao Shengtai and many soldiers and horses guarding the south gate to the north, leaving some people to stand guard at the south gate.
As long as the attack on the camp is successful, the enemy generals will be killed or even captured alive, and the Liaodong Army will fall into chaos, Zhao Shengtai will use the rocket as a signal to lead his troops out of the city and launch a general attack on the enemy at the same time.
When Zhao Shengtai saw the signal being sent out, he did not hesitate. In addition to leaving a small number of soldiers and horses in the city, he quickly came out with hundreds of cavalry.
Both Zhao Shengtai and Yuwen Chengchao brought cavalry with them when they entered the city. When Yuwen Chengchao led thousands of cavalry reinforcements, each person was equipped with two horses, so the horses were very sufficient, and these horses were also obtained during the two days after entering the city.
After resting, I feel very energetic, and when I charge, my momentum is like a rainbow.
