In the night wind, 800 Shuzhou white-armored cavalry, relying on heavy armored horses and heavy iron guns with sufficient lethality, killed the corpses of Liangqi one after another under the hook.
If he had not underestimated him, Li Mi might have been able to block the first wave at the beginning. But now, the heavy cavalry had already penetrated the enemy, and the tyrannical power of the cavalry was pushing forward.
clang.
A soldier on horseback took advantage of the situation and thrust the spear in his hand forward heavily.
There was no scene of blood spattering, and the spear only poked out tiny sparks. The Shuzhou Baijia looked back, his eyes darkened, and he shot the sneak attack Liang Qi off his horse.
Scenes like this are common. Even though there are only eight hundred, the loss rate of the white-armored cavalry in the battle is frighteningly low.
"What is this!" Li Mi yelled.
"How can a horse run with such heavy armor?"
"General Li, I can't stop you!"
Li Mi's eyes twitched, and without any hesitation, he quickly tightened the reins and turned the horse's head quickly.
"Retreat, retreat to the base camp!"
After being defeated like a mountain, Li Mi took the remaining two thousand Liangqi and retreated to Shelangqiu in shock.
There was no forceful pursuit. Wei Feng tightened the reins and had someone check the condition of his heavy horse, preparing to start the second round of attack.
"General Guard, do you want to wait for the auxiliary troops behind to put on the spare horses?"
"No need." Wei Feng's face was calm. In fact, in the battle with thousands of Liangqi just now, there was almost no damage in the battle, and only less than twenty people were killed.
With the condition of the war horses, there would be no problem in launching the second round of charge.
…
"So, you mean to say that the Shu cavalry with less than a thousand men defeated 5,000 men and killed more than half of them?" Dong Wen's face was filled with anger.
"Lord!" Li Mi dismounted and knelt down, "That's true. That Shu cavalry is very strange. The Shu people are covered with armor and are quite brave."
"If my lord doesn't believe it, you can ask the other returning generals."
Dong Wen gritted his teeth and kicked Li Mi to the ground.
It was obviously a great opportunity, and even the wolf cavalry in the back was used. You know, in order to train this wolf cavalry, a lot of resources and efforts were spent previously. Although there are only ten thousand people, they are the best in Liangzhou.
of elite.
But now, the commoner thief also had a hand in reserve. In a vague way, he seemed to be riding on a wolf.
"Send the order, separate six thousand wolf cavalry, and head east to intercept the Shu cavalry!"
It was not to vent his anger, but Dong Wen understood that if this Shu cavalry force of less than a thousand men came charging at them in a rampaging manner, it would definitely make the battle situation that had just turned around become even more difficult.
Dou Tong, who was resisting fiercely, realized that the offensive was loosening. Just when he was confused, he suddenly saw a large black shadow of Liangqi suddenly breaking away from the battle and running rapidly to the east.
"Quickly, let all the soldiers gather and stop these cool knights!"
…
"As my lord said, Liangqi is indeed a serious problem for me in Shuzhou." On the sand dune, Jia Zhou frowned.
The war has reached this point, and both sides are fighting to the death.
According to Xu Mu's estimate, Dou Tong's 10,000 Shu riders only had less than 3,000 riders left.
The battle was very fierce. If it weren't for his will to die, Dou Tong's men and horses would have been eaten long ago.
"Even I could not have expected that Dong Wen's back-up force would be such a ranger that imitated the Qiang people."
"Wenlong doesn't need to blame himself." Xu Mu comforted him. No one is perfect. Jia Zhou was able to estimate so many Liangzhou strategies, and he was already unparalleled in wisdom and strategy.
Xu Mu turned his head and looked east.
"If my lord is worried, if not, send some people to help."
"No need, there is not much difference whether it is a wandering cavalry or a light cavalry."
What Wei Feng had to do was to be careful and not fall into the encirclement and suppression of the enemy cavalry, otherwise he would be dragged down and lose his charge advantage. No matter how thick he wore, he would still be a target.
Of course, Xu Mu had already discussed the details of heavy cavalry with Wei Feng before, and even taught many examples of heavy cavalry battles for later generations.
It depends on the ability of the guard leader.
Looking back, Xu Mu looked back at the foot of Shelang Hill. In this layout, although Dong Wen used the Liangzhou Wolf Cavalry, the Shu army was already encircling and suppressing them. With the long-range strikes of bows and crossbows, another
Coupled with the limited field of vision, Liang Qi no longer had the previous advantage.
Even the Queyue Formation, under the command of Yin Hu, slowly reorganized their formation.
However, there is still a change of situation. If the Liangzhou Wolf Cavalry wins a big victory, it is very likely that they will lead the surrounded Liang army out of Shelangqiu.
"Don't worry, my lord, if Yu Wen captures Lingju Pass, the King of Liangzhou will be desperate."
…
Ling Juguan, at this time the war was fierce.
With only over 10,000 people left, the Liangzhou garrison was overwhelmed by Yu Wen's surprise attack.
Although there was no cover from the stone-throwing camp, after Xiao Qing ordered the scouts outside the pass, the dark sky had given the Shu army the best camouflage.
One by one, Shu army formations took advantage of the empty defense and put up city ladders on the city wall to climb first.
Of course, the difficulty of attacking the fortress is the most severe.
Even though they were at a disadvantage, the soldiers who defended the city still recovered quickly. With the help of the city's baggage, they supported the army and returned.
A Liangzhou general at the head of the city, under the cover of many large shields, waved a long sword in his hand and continuously directed the battle to defend the city.
Near Lingju Pass, the originally dark sky was replaced by bursts of fire arrows, burning up pieces of fire smoke that lit up the sky above the city.
"Don't retreat, continue to attack the city!"
Yu Wen kept giving orders. He knew very well that this attack had been planned by his lord for a long time. Taking advantage of the emptiness of Lingju Pass, he forced the pass. Otherwise, when the Liang people's army came back, I was afraid that Lingju Pass would be destroyed.
Even more difficult to capture.
"Shoot another fire arrow——"
Waves of fire arrows were like tiny meteor showers, trailing long tails of smoke and falling to various places on the top of the city.
"Damn Sichuan dogs, they invade our Liangzhou border! Sons and gentlemen, quickly draw your bows!"
Following the order from the guard, the arrows raining down from above seemed to be more dominant, making a harsh sound of breaking through the air and being thrown down heavily.
"Tackling the key!"
"Defend the city——"
Some fires started, some sparks went out, some people fell from the top of the city, and some were hit by arrows under the city.
