Everything was ready in the fort, and Zhu Xiaoyong faced his soldiers and made the final pre-war mobilization.
"Brothers, only by breaking out of the siege can we find a way to survive and go home to reunite with our relatives!"
"kill!"
The fort gate had been opened, and following Zhu Xiaoyong's order, the soldiers rushed out of the fort on horseback.
The horse's hooves continued continuously, like thunder, which immediately spread far away.
"Get ready to fight!"
To the north of Tianma Castle, Xu Yu immediately ordered his men to prepare. He wanted to trap the rebels in the castle and slowly kill them.
"Sir, they... they seem to be going south!"
"What?"
Xu Yu thought he heard wrongly, so he turned around and looked in the direction of Tianma Fort, and sure enough he saw the rebel army heading to the south area.
"What happened... what happened, Cui Xingan and the others may not be able to stop him!"
"Old Xu, they are going south!"
Chen Yuhe also discovered the situation and looked anxious at the moment, obviously worried that something would happen.
In their eyes, the people of the Bingma Division were not very effective in fighting and could only fight with the wind, which was a tough battle and very laborious.
Not to mention whether they can stop the rebel army, even if they do, they will suffer heavy losses. Such a victory is meaningless.
The person who bears the responsibility is Xu Yu, as the commander.
So at this moment, Xu Yu is the most anxious.
"Let the brothers go south for reinforcements!" Xu Yu looked extremely ugly.
Chen Yuhe was convinced of this, so he immediately went down to deliver the order, and soon two hundred guards started moving.
But how can a man's two legs compare to a horse's four legs?
When he sensed the incoming bandit army, Cui Xing'an knew that he had to carry it on his own, and it would take time even for reinforcements from the Guards Department.
At this moment, three hundred soldiers were already in formation.
The archers are at the back, the spearmen are in the front, and the sword and shield soldiers guard the hillsides on both sides.
Standing in the military formation with a knife, Cui Xing'an shouted loudly: "Brothers, the time has come to serve the prince, are you afraid?"
The military formation at the scene was not very wide, so Cui Xingan's shouts could be heard by everyone present.
"Don't be afraid!" the soldiers responded loudly.
To say that I am not afraid is actually a lie. It is the first time for a person to go to such a frontal battlefield, and he will feel pressure and fear.
"Are you afraid or not?" Cui Xingan asked in a higher voice.
"Don't be afraid!"
This time, the soldiers' voices were more unified and their momentum was stronger.
"Are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!"
The sound wave swept between the two mountains like an overwhelming mountain, directly covering up the sound of horse hooves hitting the opposite side.
When the words fell, Cui Xing'an was heard shouting: "His Royal Highness King Yong...long live!"
"Long live His Highness King Yong!"
Good guy, this last slogan directly pushed the soldiers' fighting spirit to the highest level, making them forget their fear and fear.
They clenched the weapons in their hands and stared fixedly at the incoming enemy troops ahead. At this moment, they just wanted to defeat the enemy troops in one fell swoop.
Following Cui Xingan's order, the flag soldiers issued the order to fire arrows.
"Archers, shoot the arrows!"
The archers standing behind fired arrows as quickly as possible.
The enemy is within 100 meters, so they must shoot out the arrows in their quivers as quickly as possible.
There are a hundred archers, and every time they shoot a hundred arrows, the opponent's cavalry is crowded into a small hell, and they can kill them effectively without aiming.
A single salvo can basically take away twenty or thirty riders. As long as these people fall off their horses, they will basically be trampled to death by the people behind them.
They fired arrows continuously. The soldiers only fired four rounds, but the cavalry on the opposite side had already rushed to a distance of twenty meters.
The pikemen in front are already ready to meet the enemy.
They were holding long spears that were nearly one foot long. They were arrayed in a formation with their spear heads facing outward. The entire military formation was like a hedgehog.
Since work has not been stopped these days, they have dug complete fortifications. They only need to defend 50 meters of the original 100-meter position.
For the remaining fifty meters, as long as Zhu Xiao bravely sent troops to charge, it would basically be death, unless the trench was filled with human lives.
At this moment, the Zhu Jiajun attacked from the opposite side. After people were shot and killed one after another, they were also haunted by fear.
Looking at the spears standing in front of them, these soldiers felt even more frightened, thinking of themselves being stabbed through.
But at this moment, they had no choice but to rush past even if they were afraid. They had no choice.
The horses are very fast, and some of the better horsemen in the team can also launch bows and arrows to attack, but because the number of people is too small, it is basically impossible to cause effective damage.
Soon, these half-baked cavalry rushed directly in front of the palace's military formation.
The huge impact knocked down the soldiers at the front, and many of them were killed on the spot.
However, the one who was more seriously injured was Zhu Jiajun who charged forward.
Accelerate those who were shot just now. At this moment, more than a hundred of them have died in battle, while only thirty soldiers from the Wangfu Army died in battle.
"Stabilize the formation, stabilize the formation!" Cui Xingan shouted loudly.
In fact, there is no need for him to say it. Several hundred households know that organizing manpower and stabilizing the formation are the basic qualities of infantry.
It can be seen here that the soldiers' daily training is effective. The death of dozens of good people has basically no impact. Their formation is quickly adjusted and is rock solid.
At this moment, Zhu Xiaoyong was heard shouting: "Back...back off!"
After an attack, you must not get entangled with the infantry, but should immediately organize a second attack.
"Their defense on the east side is weak, we will attack the east side later!"
"clear!"
The Zhu Jiajun men quickly turned around and retreated. The Wangfu Army immediately responded with several more rounds of arrows, killing forty or fifty more people.
By this moment, the Wangfu Army had suffered more than 30 casualties, and the Zhu Family Army had suffered about 150 casualties.
Cui Xingan never expected that the battle damage ratio would be like this.
This can only explain two problems. One is that the soldiers of the Bingma Division are very strong, and the other is that the Zhu Jiajun people are too weak.
Zhu Jiajun's weakness is not only reflected in equipment and training, but also in personnel organization and command methods.
To put it simply, this is a group of half-baked infantry who can ride horses. If they dismount and fight on foot, they will have stronger combat effectiveness.
While Zhu Jiajun was reorganizing his troops, Cui Xingan was not idle either. He was reorganizing his troops and dragging the casualties to the rear.
At this moment, Zhu Jiajun's men had already formed up again, and everyone looked like they were risking their lives to fight.
Zhu Xiaoyong raised his saber and shouted to his soldiers: "Attack!"
Their half-baked cavalry, equipped with armor and sabers, without any means of long-range attack, and without the cooperation of other arms, once again charged towards the infantry formation waiting in front.
On the Wangfu Army side, Cui Xingan holds a long sword.
Looking at the enemy troops attacking from a distance, Cui Xingan shouted again: "Brothers, the time has come to be loyal to the prince, kill them all!"
After shouting this, Cui Xing'an pointed his sword to the sky and shouted: "Long live His Highness King Yong!"
The soldiers were all excited and excited. They clenched their weapons and shouted: "His Royal Highness King Yong...Long live!"
