Chapter eight hundred and fifty first strangulation
"General, we don't want to fight!"
"We won't fight! General, we won't fight!"
"do not fight!"
"do not fight!"
"do not fight!"
"...."
Feng Buer, Ning Chao, Chu Jing and the others also came to their senses from their daze. They heard shouts rising one after another, and looked around the surroundings.
I saw tens of thousands of soldiers and horses waving their swords towards the three of them, shouting in unison that they would not fight.
Not only the soldiers of the New Army on his side, but also the soldiers and horses under Yong'an Gong Nangong Ye on the opposite side also raised their swords and shouted together, also without typing three words.
The three of them subconsciously looked towards Nangong Ye and the generals behind him. Nangong Ye and the others happened to be looking towards Feng Buer and the others, looking at each other silently.
I don’t know who made the first move, put away his weapon, dismounted from his horse, and ran towards the injured brothers who were still alive.
There was no response, and then tens of thousands of soldiers and horses put away the blood-stained swords in their hands with a tacit understanding, dismounted from their horses, and ran quickly towards the injured soldiers to prepare for treatment.
After half a day of fighting.
There was no communication between the soldiers on both sides, and they just started busy treating their injured brothers tacitly.
An unimaginable harmonious scene appeared on the bloody battlefield.
However, one side's soldiers and horses rebelled, and the other side's soldiers and horses were diligent and rescued.
Each carries its own mission.
I really don’t want to continue fighting. Only God knows whether I can really get what I want.
An unimaginable scene occurred on the battlefield northwest of the capital.
On the battlefield in the west of the city, as two battalions of soldiers and horses led by Cheng Kai joined in, an extremely tragic scene was staged.
The new army's six guards and 40,000 cavalry gave Li Tao's 100,000 troops a lesson in attack and killing at the cost of their lives.
The infantry formed a formation and the cavalry did not attack. All the miscellaneous soldiers under Li Tao's command knew this truth. How could the six-guard cavalry of the New Army, who had experienced hundreds of battles, not understand this truth?
However, on the battlefield in the west of the city, the principle of forming a formation and not attacking has been lost on the six guards of the new army.
After a burst of artillery bombardment, after the infantry and horses of Han Peng and Yue Yun held up more than 20,000 cavalry under Li Tao to support their own infantry, Cheng Kai, with the help of artillery to open the way, divided the two battalions into four groups and two groups.
The soldiers and horses were surrounded by bows and arrows, and the two groups of cavalry rushed straight into the infantry square.
During the fifth charge, the infantry phalanx, which was several times larger than the New Army's cavalry, was torn open by the strong charge of the New Army's cavalry.
The phalanx, which was both offensive and defensive, lost its advantage in an instant and was divided by the cavalry. They rushed and massacred.
The Li Tao brothers looked at the scene of 20,000 enemy cavalry on the battlefield surrounded by about 80,000 infantrymen and strangled them in batches, and their scalps suddenly became numb.
They couldn't figure out why the soldiers and horses who were attacking the city suddenly rushed to the battlefield in the west of the city.
I can't even understand why, with a strength of four to one, the majority of infantry were surrounded by a small number of cavalry and were defeated one by one in a battle formation.
Naturally, the soldiers and horses under Cheng Kai's command would not have the time or opportunity to explain to the Li Tao brothers, waving the command flag to convey the order to strangle the enemy.
The war horses running in circuitous directions had already stunned the infantry surrounded by them.
However, what greeted them were the thunderbolts in the throwing array and the densely packed serial crossbow arrows.
Whenever a gap was blown out of the sword-and-shield soldiers at the front, they would be followed by a hail of arrows from serial crossbows.
Compared to the fierce and fierce battle between the New Army soldiers and the Six Guards soldiers in the northwest of the capital, the battle situation on the battlefield in the west of the city had already shown a one-sided massacre.
Whenever a cavalry unit attacks the periphery of a certain phalanx, it means that the rebel infantry in this phalanx will be cannibalized step by step by the cavalry on the periphery until the formation collapses.
Compared to the battlefield in the north of the city where heroes are recognized and heroes are cherished, the Six Guards of the New Army showed no mercy at all to the miscellaneous soldiers under Li Tao who had previously rebelled.
The first step is to use all the skills to deal with the elite enemy forces of the two countries, and go all out to strangle the enemy forces surrounded in the formation.
However, the soldiers of the Sixth Guards of the New Army forgot.
They themselves are not rebels now.
The enemy troops they strangled had turned from rebels into benevolent and righteous troops saved by King Qin.
Li Tao has ordered the troops to withdraw their troops several times.
However, despite the loud sounds of gold foil coming and going, except for those infantry surrounded by cavalry on the outside, there was a chance to evacuate.
The infantry surrounded by groups had no way to retreat.
The last ray of sunset disappeared in the sky, and the sky gradually became hazy.
The New Army cavalry also left the battlefield, leaving corpses on the ground and running in a roundabout way several miles away.
It was not that the New Army soldiers had a kind heart and wanted to spare the infantry under Li Tao's command.
But the soldiers of the Sixth Guards of the New Army felt the fatigue of their horses and knew they could no longer continue the attack.
Eighty percent of the power of cavalry comes from the horses the soldiers sit on, and the horses are their second lives.
Don't ignore the upper limit of the horse's physical strength in order to kill the enemy.
"Hush!"
"Hush!"
"Hush!"
After leaving the battlefield, the soldiers and horses under Cheng Kai successively slowed down their speed, and finally stopped at the position where Han Peng and his men had originally stationed their horses.
"Soldiers! Immediately send an order to Sima to count the casualties of the brothers. The rest will rest in place to prevent the enemy from launching a counterattack."
"Got the order!"
"Hush!"
Cheng Kai's soldiers had just left. After experiencing a fight with the cavalry under Li Tao, Han Peng also withdrew from the battlefield and rushed to Cheng Kai's side.
"General, secondly, it's getting late. The horses really can't continue to attack. We must rest and replenish fodder."
Cheng Kai inserted the bloody sword into the scabbard, looked around at the sneezing horses, and nodded solemnly.
"You and I are thinking the same thing. The consumption of the war horse has reached the upper limit. If we continue, the war horse will definitely be damaged.
I have ordered the brothers to rest where they are, and you have also ordered the brothers under your command to rest where they are.
I immediately went to the Beida camp to meet with the commander-in-chief, report the battle situation, and ask the rear army soldiers to bring food and grass to supplement our consumption.
You should shoulder the responsibility for the matters here first. Once the enemy launches a counterattack, you must avoid fighting."
"After receiving the order, the general will understand!"
Cheng Kai glanced at the hastily evacuating enemy troops and galloped toward the Beida camp outside the capital.
When Cheng Kai arrived at the camp, the sky was completely dark, and bright bonfires were lit on both the city walls and the four camps of the Sixth Guards of the New Army.
"The last general Cheng Kai meets the commander-in-chief!"
Liu Mingzhi sat on the handsome chair and silently flipped through the battle report in his hand that Tang Ru had compiled following the military record. When he heard Cheng Kai's voice, he didn't even raise his head and still silently flipped through the battle report in his hand.
"Get up and sit aside for now!"
"Thank you, Marshal!"
Cheng Kai stood up and walked towards the chair beside him. After sitting down, he looked at Ning Chao, Ye Baotong, Chu Jing and Feng Buer, who had gathered ahead of him, with questioning eyes in his eyes.
Ning Chao and the others shook their heads slightly at Cheng Kai, pursed their lips towards Liu Mingzhi, and signaled Cheng Kai to just wait patiently!
