"Speed up, speed up, stick to them, stick to them!" Li Tong's eyes were blood red and he shouted with all his strength.
He is familiar with military literature and has been in battle for many years. How could he still not know that now his army has reached the edge of extreme danger? The other party is also taking risks. As long as his charge is fast enough and fierce enough, he can defeat the enemy without him.
Before the formation change is completely completed, the enemy is defeated in one fell swoop with an overwhelming force.
But on the other hand, if he can't stick to him... Li Tong's heart will tremble like the ocean tide.
Cao Cao regards Wang Yu as his lifelong enemy and has never relaxed his research on the Qingzhou Army. Although Li Tong joined the army late, he led his troops to surrender. From the beginning, he was highly valued and had access to almost all kinds of military secrets.
.
He had never seen this scene before, but it felt very familiar. He thought about it again and again, and finally remembered a detail from the plain battle. At that time, the light cavalry led by Zhao Yun used similar tactics.
, avoided the sharp edge of the Hu Cavalry vanguard led by Gaobei, surrounded them, and established the advantage in that battle?
If Zhao Yun's unexpected move hadn't completely disrupted Yu Fuluo's thinking, no matter how powerful the Qingzhou Army was, it would have been impossible to complete the annihilation of the 20,000 Hu cavalry.
Li Tong originally thought that Zhao Yun's conspiracy would work because he took advantage of the Hu people's stupidity, but now he had a very bad feeling. This world-famous gale force cavalry might have more power than its reputation.
.
Even without Li Tong's urging, the cavalrymen knew that the critical moment had come. The cavalrymen in the front row no longer cared about their horses, which had always been regarded as life-and-death partners, and kicked them hard with the spurs on their boots, kicking the horses in the abdomen.
Blood was dripping. The man also stood up on the horse and leaned forward, just to attack the enemy's array even just one breath ahead of time.
The war horses were driven crazy by the severe pain, and their speed increased to the extreme. They had maintained an orderly array a moment ago, and suddenly exploded, like a swarm of enraged wasps, swarming forward.
The cavalry were all red-eyed. The strength and momentum they had accumulated were also quite terrifying, but they were also facing a group of warriors. Seeing that the enemy was accelerating and it was difficult to avoid them, the first two rows of Gale Cavalry spontaneously changed their military orders and turned around.
The horse's head hit him in the opposite direction with the same fearless attitude.
They turned a blind eye to the spear points that had been handed to them, laughing as they pointed their bows and arrows...
When they are separated, they are reunited, and when they are reunited, they are separated again!
The tiger and leopard cavalry are arranged in a square formation. Even if the knight has been killed by an arrow, the horses will not stop. They are sandwiched by their companions on both sides and cannot turn at all. They can only slam forward. The array of the tiger and leopard cavalry
It was so dense that hitting one of them was like the force of the entire cavalry hitting them.
The dozens of gale force cavalry that collided could not withstand such a huge force. Even the men and horses were knocked down. Although they also caused enemy casualties, they could not stop the forward pressure of the enemy array.
It was impossible for them to survive, and they were trampled directly into a pulp by the war horses. But their sacrifices were not in vain, because they did not retreat, and put distance between themselves and their comrades who were changing the array.
Although they did not play an interceptive role and only brought about an extremely short pause, this pause was crucial to the entire battle.
"Wind shape and water potential, turn!"
Qin Feng tried his best to open his eyes wide, but refused to look back. He was afraid that he would not be able to help it and shed tears. A man would immediately take the honor and die in battle, but this kind of victory for the whole was not worth it.
The act of self-sacrifice without hesitation is still very touching.
Of course, Qin Feng will not act like a son at this moment. The best way to pay tribute to his brothers is not to let their sacrifices be in vain, and to use the opportunity gained by their sacrifices as an opportunity to win this battle.
It's as if a curtain has been opened, or as if the water is impacting on the rock pillar in the middle of the river, and it naturally separates to both sides.
Riding lightly is like the wind, array is like the water!
No matter how hard the forwards of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry tried, they could not catch the opponent's shadow, and could only watch helplessly as the Swift Wind Cavalry ran past in front of their eyes.
On the empty Heluo Plain, the more than a thousand men and horses fighting were like a wisp of blue smoke, but the murderous intent contained in the blue smoke made the sunshine in the sky become cold. No one waved the forest-like flags, nor did they wave their flags like a forest.
The sound of cheering horns and drums and the rustling of horse hooves are the only melody in the wind.
"Bend your bow...shoot in stacks...attack with all your strength!" Qin Feng raised his arms and roared like a mad tiger.
The smoke and dust brought up by the horses' hooves rolled up faster and faster, and became thicker and thicker. Suddenly, the trajectory of the smoke and dust turned around, and countless sharp arrows rose into the air.
"Kill!" The cavalrymen's eyes were filled with tears, but their bow and arrow movements were meticulous.
The sound of the arrows tearing through the air was shrill and harsh, and they were fired from both wings. It was like a large net specially designed to harvest lives was opened out of thin air, directly covering the array of tiger and leopard riders.
Cross fire is the most effective way to exert power in long-range attacks. Even if you hold a shield, you can't block the arrows flying from two directions. What's more, the mounted archery of the Galloping Cavalry is more than just shooting from two directions? They rely on close proximity
With their cooperation, while firing directly, they also launched a covering projectile attack.
It was as if a strong wind had blown through the wheat field, and all the soldiers on the tiger and leopard cavalry were killed and wounded. Some people kept falling off their horses, and the horses kept screaming shrilly. Their array was too dense, and they had the absolute upper hand in the head-on collision.
, but when faced with mid- to long-distance mounted fire and damage, they were like a group of living targets.
"Where are the crossbowmen? Fight back, fight back!" The moment the striker's impact was avoided, Li Tong knew that today's battle was winless. He was only thinking about how to bring more people with him.
go back.
Compared with horse archers, crossbow cavalry requires less training and is more lethal. It is a very targeted unit.
Li Tong did not expect the crossbow cavalry to turn defeat into victory. The crossbows had to be dismounted to load. In such a fierce battle, there was no chance of a second shot. He just wanted to make the enemy have some scruples and disrupt the opponent's attack rhythm.
, in order to take the opportunity to distance themselves, so that they can have the opportunity to regroup, make a comeback, return to fight, or simply admit defeat and retreat directly.
Most of the cavalrymen holding crossbows were placed in front of the array. At this time, they didn't care much. They fought hard to move their horses to the two wings. There were constant collisions with their companions. Both men and horses fell into the dust, but the survivors could not even blink.
He didn't even jump, he just looked around intently. When he found the shooting space, he raised his hand and shot an arrow.
The sky was full of white feathers whistling towards the galloping cavalry. The wind of death whistled before and after the horses. Some people fell to the ground while running. Some ownerless horses neighed and fled away from the battlefield. Most of the galloping cavalry were still galloping.
He bent his bow and nocked an arrow.
Most of the arrows fired by the crossbow cavalry have missed their target. It requires very good shooting skills to hit a fast-moving war horse, not to mention that the archer is also on a fast-moving war horse?
Moreover, on the battlefield, the power of crossbows can only be manifested through volleys. Although the crossbow cavalry are very brave, they cannot form a volley. At first glance, the power of crossbows is huge, but in fact, scattered shots are completely useless.
It doesn't have much power, just like a handful of sand and gravel thrown into a rushing river, only a few inconspicuous small splashes are stirred up.
"Wind!" Qin Feng and Wu Cai divided their forces into two groups. They couldn't see each other at all, but they miraculously maintained the same frequency and issued the order for the second round of salvo at the same time.
The arrow net was intertwined again, and another death zone was circled among the array of tiger and leopard cavalry.
Li Tong's heart was bleeding.
Unlike those civil servants and generals who came to surrender in admiration, he was Cao Cao who led the crowd to surrender. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was modeled after the Qingzhou Wind and Fire Cavalry. It had the nature of a Guards. He served as a deputy general in this army, rather than going out to guard.
One party's status is even higher. His qualifications were not enough in the first place. He only gained his current status by handing over his original tribe.
If this battle is just a defeat, he still has a chance to make atonement. But if the defeat is too disastrous, even if the lord is magnanimous, it is impossible to continue to entrust him with important tasks. The preparations have been made before the battle, and each army has its own master.
The running-in is almost complete. I don’t have any direct troops, and I still want to squeeze out others. Will Li Daitao be deadlocked?
Before the two armies came into contact and at the beginning of the collision, their respective losses were only thirty or fifty. However, in the two rounds of attacks when the Gale Cavalry changed their formation and launched a running attack, at least one or two Tiger and Leopard Cavalrymen fell off their horses.
Hundreds, but it didn't even hurt the opponent's fur. It was really miserable.
"Send my order, go forward with all your strength, and don't look back!" Li Tong finally accepted his fate.
Since you can't beat them, let's run. Anyway, your side has the upper hand in terms of horsepower. No matter how unfavorable the enemy is, if the two teams stagger for such a short period of time, at most they can only fire another round of volleys, and wait for the collision to pass.
If you want to pursue it again, you have to turn the horse's head in a circle, which will take a longer time.
I can still afford such a loss!
Li Tong gritted his teeth and looked at the enemy's right wing with extremely fierce eyes. He knew that the enemy's general was there, and he wanted to remember the enemy's appearance for future revenge.
It didn't matter. Li Tong was shocked again. He saw the latest movements of the Gale Cavalry. After two rounds of powerful volleys, they had no intention of continuing their efforts. Instead, they turned their horses' heads again and charged diagonally.
The second half of the tiger and leopard cavalry array!
It can be said that the Gale Cavalry has brought the word "clutch" to the extreme. In such a change of direction and galloping, they can actually get close to each other and form a dense wedge formation. Then they abandon their bows and draw their swords, shouting for death in an earth-shattering manner.
In the sound, the array of tiger and leopard cavalry was cut off at the waist!
The dense array of tiger and leopard cavalry is conducive to frontal impact, but the protection of the flanks is quite limited. It is not that Li Tong's command level is too poor, he is commanding a light cavalry. Who has ever heard that the flanks of the cavalry will be outflanked?
A side attack?
However, this incredible scene happened in front of him. The cavalry in the rear army was obviously caught off guard, and it was difficult to use the heavy spears in their hands. In the blink of an eye, they were chopped down by the gale cavalry, and they were completely unable to fight back.
appearance.
"Father, let's fight back, fight back!" Li Xu's crying voice came to his ears. Li Tong slowly raised his hand, as if there was a thousand kilograms of weight in his hand, and soon fell down again. When he spoke again, his voice was so low that even he himself could hardly hear it.
"We lost, let's retreat." (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
