The three hundred and thirty second chapter fifty-five victory
Outside Yingzhou City, in just a short moment of burning incense, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses gathered together and rushed like a flash flood.
The sound of cannons rumbling on the city wall outside the city was like a thunderbolt from the blue, mysterious and continuous. Rains of arrows were coming and going, and hundreds of soldiers were killed or injured in every attack.
Liu Mingzhi took the lead in charging with the Heavenly Sword. His expression changed slightly as he watched the Black Wolf Cavalry encircle the formation. Looking at the halberd bearers of the Jin Kingdom's Central Army who were ready to move, he instantly understood Wanyan Chiezha's plan.
"The whole army disperses and charges on both sides, and we must not fall into the encirclement of the Black Wolf Cavalry."
Dozens of guards around him hurriedly shouted loudly to convey Liu Mingzhi's command. The flag bearers on the side also waved the command flag to convey the command.
In an instant, the trapped troops who were heading towards the Black Wolf Cavalry quickly circled around and fought head-on with the Jin Kingdom's Black Wolf Cavalry, determined not to get close to the position of the Jin Kingdom's central army.
Liu Mingzhi quickly glanced at the army of Black Wolf Cavalry, and saw a general of the Jin Kingdom who was holding a broad beheading sword and killed several of his own soldiers as if entering an uninhabited land. He quickly put the Heavenly Sword in his hand into its scabbard and drew it out.
The spare horse, which was tied to one side of the horse's back, rushed forward.
The general of the Kingdom of Jin, who was fending off several trapped warriors, had not yet noticed any trace of Young Master Liu. He only felt a chill running down his spine and subconsciously swung his sword to block the attack behind him based on instinct.
There was a loud clang, Ma Shan's sharp sword point on the broad back of the sword, and the Jin general was directly thrown away by Liu Mingzhi.
Falling under thousands of troops and not knowing whether to live or die, Liu Mingzhi didn't need to think too much about his fate.
You come and go, thousands of troops and horses rush past, and the general of the Jin Kingdom will inevitably be trampled into a pulp.
When the surrounding soldiers saw that the enemy general who was killing all the enemies was killed by the commander with one blow, their morale was high. They followed Young Master Liu and charged again with their swords.
"Report to the commander-in-chief, the dragon cavalry will only attack and kill from the outside, and will not get closer to our Chinese army's formation!"
"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, the dragon cavalry detached a group of troops and rushed towards the food and grass area of my rear army. It seems that they intend to sneak attack on my rear baggage supplies."
Wanyan Chizha held up the telescope and looked at the bloody battle between the two sides' soldiers in the telescope. He listened to the slightly panicked voices around him and his expression remained unchanged.
"Send the order, the spearmen and halberdiers of the Chinese army take the initiative to approach from both sides. The dragon cavalry must be surrounded by our army's formation!"
"Got the order!"
"Send the order. The big dragon cavalry's sneak attack on our supplies may be a trick of the enemy. Order the left guard Black Wolf Cavalry to intercept. Remember, you must not leave the cover of the Chinese army's pikemen to pursue without permission, lest you fall into Liu Mingzhi's ambush!"
"There are only 100,000 soldiers and horses at the moment, and there are still 200,000 cavalry missing. Once we leave the cover of the army formation, there is a high probability that Liu Mingzhi will make dumplings!"
"Now that we have more troops and horses, we have an advantage. We must not give our advantage away."
"Got the order!"
"Commander, the infantry of the Jin Army are outflanking us!"
Liu Mingzhi pierced the chest of an enemy soldier with one stab, and then threw it towards the enemy soldier who was charging towards him. He directly knocked several black wolf cavalrymen under their horses and were swallowed up by the dense hooves of the horses.
"Send the order, bypass the Black Wolf Cavalry, and shoot the Jin Kingdom spearmen with crossbows from the side. They are not covered by sword and shield soldiers. Don't give up this opportunity. Shoot freely and don't save arrows."
"After being covered by a wave of arrows, retreat in a roundabout way and consider whether to charge again based on the situation!"
"Got the order!"
Following Liu Mingzhi's order, the Black Wolf Cavalry who was charging suddenly discovered that the Dragon Cavalry who was charging with them suddenly changed direction and came towards the Chinese infantry in a roundabout way.
Seeing the great dragon cavalry hanging on the horse's back and picking up the hand crossbows that they had just fired at each other when the two armies charged, their expressions changed with shock.
"Quickly, disperse the infantry to support the central army, and mount your bows and arrows."
When the pikemen on both sides of the Jin Kingdom circled around and encircled them, when they saw the enemy army of Dalong, they suddenly changed direction and charged towards their own side. Under the command of the commander, they directly arranged their formations on the spot, waiting for the arrival of the enemy army.
However, what greeted them was not the weapons in the hands of the cavalry, but short but dense clusters of hand crossbow arrows.
After a wave of arrow rain covered the ground, leaving behind wailing wounded soldiers and corpses, the trapped troops showed superb riding skills and turned around and quickly evacuated within a few steps of the Jin Guozhong Army's spearmen.
Naturally, many trapped warriors inevitably rushed into the spearmen's formation due to various reasons. Those who caught them were stabbed into the chest by spears, and they ended up dead.
In this melee of hundreds of thousands of people, there is never absolute invincibility.
By the time the pikemen reacted, the trapped warriors had already galloped hundreds of steps away.
The flag-bearer of the Black Wolf Cavalry immediately waved the command flag and ordered the Black Wolf Cavalry to stop the pursuit to prevent falling into the enemy's conspiracy.
Hearing no sound of horse hooves galloping behind him, Liu Mingzhi pulled the horse's rein and stopped.
"Hush!"
As soon as Liu Mingzhi stopped, the 20,000 soldiers following him also slowed down, and finally turned around and looked at the battlefield he had just charged.
The soldiers here had just stopped when the sound of horse hoofs was heard from the left, and the earthquake on the ground became stronger. Liu Mingzhi glanced slightly and saw Song Qing leading another group of soldiers back to the army.
"Commander!"
"Commander!"
In less than an hour, the warriors who had been wearing bright armor just now were like a group of murderous gods crawling out of hell.
The sword in his hand was dripping with blood, and the armor was even more dripping with blood. The helmets of many trapped warriors had disappeared. They were riding on horses with disheveled hair, and their hair was stuck to their cheeks because of the blood stains.
On the other hand, the generals such as Young Master Liu were even more frightening. The cloaks behind them were heavily drooped on the horse's back, dripping with blood, and there was no trace of the elegant posture of dancing in the wind at the beginning of the charge.
Liu Mingzhi put his horse on his cloak and drank some matcha casually: "Cheng Kai, count the results!"
"Got the order!"
"Commander!"
"exist!"
"Hurry and ask General Ye Baotong how the Fang Guard is doing!"
"Got the order!"
Liu Mingzhi gently wiped the blood off his face and looked at Song Qing: "What's the situation over there? Can you fish it out?"
There was a hint of regret in Song Qing's eyes: "It's difficult. The Black Wolf Cavalry of the Jin Kingdom seems to have discovered our intentions. They are very thieves and are determined not to break away from the spearmen and halberd-bearers of the Jin Kingdom's Central Army. As long as we break away a little bit,
They gave up the pursuit when they were close."
"You fight back, and they charge forward without hesitation to fight us to the death."
Liu Mingzhi frowned, grinned and sighed.
"The situation here is roughly the same. If you want to fight them, fight them. If you want to retreat a little, they will never charge."
"It seems that the old fox Wanyan Chizha has discovered our intention and will never let the Black Wolf Cavalry leave the infantry range where they can rely on each other!"
"The Black Wolf Cavalry of the Jin Kingdom really lives up to their reputation. Their riding skills are no less superb than ours and the Turkic Cavalry. However, they are more difficult to deal with than the Turkic Cavalry. Their armor and weapons are superior to those of the Turks."
"Continuing to charge with such an evenly matched attack will be very detrimental to our situation. Even if we exchange one for one, we will suffer a loss. We must find a way to bring out the power of the tank. How can we get them to take the bait!"
"Report, Commander-in-Chief, the battle damage statistics have been calculated!"
Liu Mingzhi frowned: "How much damage was done in the battle?"
"More than three thousand brothers have not returned. It is unknown how many were killed directly and how many were seriously injured!"
Liu Mingzhi sighed sadly: "After two quarters of an hour of repairs, send out ten tanks to charge for the second wave and see how it goes first!"
"Got the order!"
In the main tent of the Jin Army's camp, Wanyan Chizha looked at the battle report in his hand with a calm face.
"In the first charge, we lost about 4,000 black wolf cavalry, and more than 2,000 spearmen were killed. The strength of Liu Mingzhi's troops should not be underestimated!"
"Report! The commander-in-chief has brought back thirty corpses from both the enemy and ours. Please take a look at them."
Wanyan Chizha put down the battle report and walked towards the outside of the tent. He looked at the corpses arranged in two rows outside the tent and examined them one by one.
After a long time, Wanyan Chizha sighed a few times with a complicated expression.
"It's not that I, the Black Wolf Cavalry, can't compare to the Dragon Trapper, it's really that the gap in weapons and armor is too big!"
