But what the Turkic army did not expect was that the first surprise brought to them by the Dali army did not come from the cavalry they had never seen before.
No one accepts fate easily.
Although the judgment of the situation was not optimistic, the Turks still made a tentative attack on the temporary fortifications erected by the Dali army.
Although the probability is not high, if this fortification is just a fake and they are fooled, it will make them laugh forever.
Out of caution, after a half-day confrontation, the Turkic army first sent two thousand cavalry to conduct a tentative attack.
If Da Li's army showed itself vulnerable, the remaining cavalry would rush forward like wolves smelling blood.
And even if not, they can still afford the price of these two thousand cavalry, and with the speed of the cavalry, it is very simple to evacuate after finding that they cannot attack the camp.
This is a common thought among Turkic generals.
However, the Dali army soon let them know what it means to come and go without returning.
Facing the attack of two thousand Turkic cavalry, Anjunshan did not hold on to the fortifications. Instead, he opened the exit of the fortifications and rushed out of a hundred people.
At the front of the Turkic army, most of the Turkic generals who were paying close attention to the developments in Dali burst into laughter.
The commander-in-chief of the Dali army, Anjunshan, was known to every Turkic general, and his reputation as a "madman" had already spread among the Turkic army.
The commander of Yanque Pass has always been crazy about fighting, but did he think that with only a hundred infantry, they could defeat their two thousand cavalry in a head-on confrontation?
There were even some Turkic generals who had never fought against Anjun Mountain. After seeing this scene, they felt that the reputation of Anjun Mountain was somewhat undeserved.
When he fights, he is not crazy, but reckless and does not know how to advance or retreat.
However, several people who were familiar with Anjun Mountain instinctively felt that something was wrong.
They have fought with An Junshan for many years and know that he is not a person who behaves mindlessly. After summarizing his "crazy" fighting methods, they found that he was not just giving random orders.
This commander-in-chief is not as reckless as he appears, but is actually very strategic.
Because of my suspicion, I observed more carefully.
The eyes of these Turkic generals first fell on the one hundred Dali soldiers who came out. After seeing clearly, all their pupils shrank.
Those were not ordinary Dali soldiers, but a hundred martial arts cultivators in the middle stage of acquired martial arts.
One hundred martial arts practitioners in the middle stage of acquired martial arts jointly attack, and they have the strength to annihilate two thousand Turkic cavalry even without riding horses.
However, the soldiers have a long history of formation coordination. Even if these martial arts cultivators in the Great Li Army wiped out all 2,000 Turkic cavalry who went into battle, they would suffer heavy losses themselves.
Exchanging 2,000 ordinary cavalry for 100 middle-level martial arts cultivators would be a huge profit for the Turks.
Although the role of martial arts cultivators in the army will be greatly weakened, it does not mean that martial arts cultivators are useless. Strong strength can also better lead the soldiers under their charge to charge. This is why most generals have martial arts skills.
It is impossible for Anjunshan to make such a low-level mistake.
The Turkic general, who felt something was wrong more and more, looked past Wu Xiu who was leaving the fortification and saw the closing gate of the fortification.
At the last moment when the gate closed, they seemed to see a large number of Dali cavalry in a strange formation.
Because of the previous civil strife, the Turkic ministries have focused all their energy on how to survive this winter this year, and there are no extra manpower to pay attention to matters at the Dali border.
Therefore, these Turkic generals were completely unaware of the semi-public formations in Yanque Pass.
However, even if they couldn't understand the formation of the soldiers, they instinctively felt that something was wrong.
Sure enough, things quickly developed according to their predictions.
One hundred infantry faced off against two thousand cavalry, but at the time of contact, with such a huge disparity in formation, it was the cavalry with the larger number of people whose stumps flew up.
This did not surprise the Turkic generals.
Regardless of whether it was the Great Li or the Turks, they all used the sacrifice of soldiers to continuously consume the extraordinary beings from the beginning.
But the subsequent development made all the Turkic generals open their eyes.
From the beginning to the end, these one hundred martial arts cultivators from Dali seemed to be tireless. Their own energy and blood were always kept in an abundant state, and the wounds on their bodies also recovered at an extremely fast speed.
Both his durability and his recovery from injuries are far beyond what a mid-acquired martial artist should be able to achieve.
They wouldn't be surprised if there was only one. After all, there were so many martial arts cultivators in the Ancient Moon Realm, and it was normal for one or two geniuses to appear.
However, these hundred martial arts cultivators are all like this.
Only a few of the two thousand cavalry returned, but the one hundred martial arts cultivators were not even injured.
No matter how talented Dali is, it is impossible for so many geniuses to emerge at once, so there must be other reasons for their anomalies.
Subconsciously, they thought of the strange formation they had just seen.
Although I have never seen a formation with such incredible effects, after throwing out all the impossibilities, no matter how absurd the remaining possibilities are, it is still the correct answer.
The Turkic generals quickly figured it out based on their rich experience.
The abnormal performance of these martial arts must be related to the formations set up by the soldiers inside the fortifications.
Discovering this did not comfort them, but instead they all frowned.
If there are only these one hundred people, that's it. With the strength of the Turkic army, they will not be afraid, but what they are afraid of is the formation of the Dali soldiers. The number of people who can support the battle is far more than these one hundred.
If there are thousands of people like this, even if all 20,000 Turkic soldiers are here, they have no confidence in winning.
In other words, if the facts are as they guessed, there is no need to wait for the five lines of cavalry to converge. The Dali army here alone has the strength to defeat their coalition.
Anjunshan has indeed had this idea, and with the current army alone, he will eat up this Turkic coalition.
But after thinking about it, he gave up this option.
The formation entrusted to him by His Highness is indeed powerful. Just a small test of his skills just wiped out two thousand Turkic soldiers. If all the generals were to come out in full force, they would indeed be able to cause huge damage to the Turkic coalition forces.
But this is based on the premise that the Turkic coalition forces will not escape.
Because of the existence of 20,000 infantry, the movement speed of Anjunshan's army cannot match that of the enemy, and after forming a formation, the movement speed will further decrease.
The range of the formation is limited, and the distance between the core general and other soldiers is limited.
In this case, although the generals who were martial arts practitioners were faster than the Turkic cavalry on horseback with just their legs, the limitations of the formation prevented them from pursuing them very far.
This can be considered a weakness of this formation.
