The swords were as long as the forest, and the sharp blades shone with a cold light. Under the cold autumn sun, there was a murderous look.
The cavalryman was chopped down by the school swordsman, and at the same time, the school swordsman was trampled to death.
Flesh and blood were flying in front of the school sword formation.
While the battle was fierce ahead, the Tsing Yi Qiang charged in the final direction of the Xiliang Cavalry. A Qing Yi Qiang leader signaled to the tower. The tower nodded, suddenly swung his machete, and cut off the head of Ke Duo next to him.
.
Poor Na Keduo didn't know anything. He didn't even see who killed him, so he was beheaded in the midst of thousands of troops. The tall tower raised his scimitar and shouted to the sky: "All Qiang warriors, Xiliang
Ma Chao helped the Xianling Qiang oppress us and others, the time has come to resist, we must gain the freedom of the Canglang."
"kill."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
More than 6,000 Tsing Yi Qiang cavalry, led by Gaota, broke into the rear of the Xiliang army. The Xiliang rear formation was immediately in chaos. The Tsing Yi Qiang attacked the Xiliang army. It was completely different from the previous battle with the Sichuan army. It seemed like a different army.
With fighting spirit renewed, the machete wielded, the bravest tribe in the grassland was reborn.
The Qingyi Qiang are the largest tribe of the Xiqiang and the bravest tribe. They are extremely powerful and have been resentful of the Xianling Qiang and the Xiliang army for a long time. At this moment, they charged with all their strength. The Xiliang soldiers in front were caught off guard and were cut to pieces.
vegetable.
Qiang in Qingyi broke into Xiliang's charge formation, and the Xiliang army's rear was smashed to pieces like mooncakes chewed by dogs.
"What's going on, what's going on?" Ma Dai shouted loudly, but he didn't expect that the Xiliang army would rebel at this time and gnashed his teeth against the Qingyi Qiang, but he could do nothing.
"Second brother, our army is in chaos at the rear, and Sichuan troops have invaded on both flanks. They will soon be outflanked. Order a retreat quickly." Ma Xiu shouted to Ma Dai.
Ma Dai watched the Xiliang Cavalry and the Sichuan Military Academy swordsman strangle in front of him. The swordsman of the Sichuan Military Academy was repeatedly trampled to death under the horses' hooves. After paying heavy casualties, the Xiliang Cavalry was about to break through the Sichuan Military Academy sword formation. It was not feasible to retreat at this time.
willingly.
However, if they do not retreat, Qiang Qiang troops from behind will attack, and their wings will be surrounded by heavy infantry formations. The Xiliang Cavalry will be completely wiped out.
"withdraw……"
"No."
Just as Ma Dai shouted one word, Ma Chao arrived beside him at some unknown time. Ma Chao lost too much blood, his face was gray, his lips were trembling, and his eyes were blood red. He struggled and said: "We cannot retreat. If we retreat now, we will have no chance of victory."
"We are all going to be wiped out, so what chance do we have to win?" Ma Dai shouted urgently.
Ma Chao shook his head slowly and said weakly: "I have ordered the 10,000 soldiers and horses left behind in the camp to come for reinforcements. You just charge and pierce Liu Zhang's heart. The key to our victory is Liu Zhang's banner. As long as the banner falls
, the morale of the Sichuan army will definitely be overwhelming, and by then our Xiliang cavalry will rule the world."
"But what if we can't break through?" Ma Dai said anxiously: "These are most of the elites of my Ma family and most of the Xianling Qiang. Now that the Qingyi Qiang has rebelled, our entire army has been wiped out, and we will be unable to recover for several years. How can we explain to my father?"
"There is no other way." Ma Chao yelled with all his strength: "If we are defeated, we will rescue as many cavalrymen as possible from the camp, and the rest." Ma Chao said solemnly: "I will be buried with the best cavalryman in the world. From now on
From now on, the best knight in the world will no longer exist."
Ma Dai was stunned, gritted his teeth, and finally decided to continue the charge.
"kill."
This was a desperate charge between two powerful troops. The Sichuan Army was no longer afraid of the Xiliang Army, and the Xiliang Army decided to make a desperate move to crush the enemy in front with all its strength and maintain the dignity of the best cavalry in the world.
All the Xiliang elite cavalry were concentrated in the front. Under the leadership of Ma Dai, they tore apart the defensive formation of the school sword formation in one fell swoop, trampling hundreds of school swordsmen under the hoofs of the horses, and rushed towards the obstacle formation composed of catapults and various obstacles.
.
"Fire the arrows." Sichuan Army General Liu Quan ordered in a deep voice.
Thousands of archers behind the barrier formation rained arrows at the Xiliang Cavalry. The Xiliang Cavalry was blocked by obstacles and could not charge, and was killed in large numbers.
"Cavalry formation, diffraction."
Ma Dai shouted, and the Xiliang cavalry temporarily changed the charging direction and galloped in front of the obstacle formation. A large number of arrows were fired at the archers behind the obstacle formation, causing heavy casualties on both sides.
"Kill." Two groups of Sichuan troops broke into the cavalry formation from both sides. Ma Dai commanded hundreds of cavalry to block it. He raised his long sword and shouted: "Come with me and charge. If you cut off Liu Zhang's big banner, you will be rewarded with thousands of gold and made a marquis. If you kill Liu Zhang, you will be rewarded."
The major general mobilizes thousands of troops, becomes the leader of the army, and kills them."
"Kill." The morale of the Xiliang army was high, and they suppressed the Sichuan army's archers from shooting, pushed aside obstacles, and rushed towards the archers. The archers retreated, and behind the archers was Liu Zhang's Chinese army, which only had two thousand people.
There are less than a hundred powerful Dongzhou soldiers stationed there.
The Dongzhou soldiers were in front, and the rest of the army was behind, forming another formation. Each Dongzhou soldier held a small portable square shield, and several people worked together to form a large shield formation, which was the same as a large shield formation.
"Kill, final charge, kill." Ma Dai raised his knife and shouted. He had shouted so many times today, and his voice was hoarse.
"kill."
The Xiliang Xiaoqi who had passed through the obstacle formation accelerated their horses and headed towards Liu Zhang's direction. The Chinese army had two thousand Sichuan troops, led by Dongzhou soldiers, who were waiting in tight formation.
"rise."
Suddenly I heard a loud shout, and suddenly countless iron chains were erected in front of the Xiliang army's charge formation. They were pulled by hundreds of Sichuan troops on both sides and lay across the front of the Xiliang army's charge formation. The horses of the Xiliang army were too fast and people fell over.
The Xiliang Cavalry from behind continued to charge in. The Sichuan soldiers held on to the iron chain tightly and gritted their teeth to withstand the collision of the Xiliang Cavalry.
"Ma Xiu Ma Tie, kill those Sichuan barbarians pulling on the chains, and the rest will charge with me."
Ma Tiema Xiu separated their horses and charged into the Sichuan army on both sides of the iron chain. The Sichuan army could only abandon the iron chain and fight with spears. Ma Dai led the army and broke into the last guard formation of the Chinese army.
"Lord, retreat quickly. The Xiliang army will fight to the death. Two thousand soldiers will never be able to stop it." Fazheng said loudly.
"No." Liu Zhang flatly refused: "Retreating at this time, more than ten days of hard work, and the deaths of tens of thousands of soldiers are all meaningless. Moreover, as soon as we retreat, the formation collapses, and the Xiliang Army will take the opportunity to cover up and kill us. Our 50,000-strong army will be doomed."
.”
"But……"
"Wei Yan." Liu Zhang gritted his teeth and said two words, then shouted: "Someone bring me my crossbow box."
The soldier handed over the crossbow box. This was the first batch of precision single-shot crossbow boxes produced according to Huang Yueying's design and with countless manpower and material resources. There were twenty sets in total, and the remaining nineteen sets were at Ankang Camp where Zhang Ren trained.
This single-shot crossbow box is easy to launch and powerful. It can be accurate from a hundred and fifty meters away and fatal from a hundred meters away. At this time, Ma Dai is fifty meters ahead.
"kill."
The Xiliang cavalry ran into a shield formation of Dongzhou soldiers. One hundred Dongzhou soldiers were at the front, with a layer of shields and daggers, a layer of spearmen, and behind them another layer of square shield-hands.
Xiliang's horse stepped on the shield wall composed of dozens of shields. The Dongzhou soldiers were squeezed by the huge force. The square shield hands in the rear firmly supported the backs of the soldiers in front. The soldiers in the front fought against the broken bones and blocked the west.
The Liang Cavalry made the most ferocious collision, and the spearman from behind thrust out, causing the Xiliang Cavalry to flip over.
The archers who had retreated before fired arrows from both wings again, killing the Xiliang cavalry.
The Xiliang army suffered a large number of casualties, and Ma Dai was at the forefront. Liu Zhang handed over the crossbow box to a Dongzhou guard who was good at shooting.
Fa Zheng was anxious on the sidelines. Even if he blocked the Xiliang cavalry at this time, the formation of the two thousand troops was too weak and was vulnerable to the Xiliang cavalry. What's more, there were Dongzhou soldiers in front. If the Dongzhou soldiers were exhausted, the soldiers in the rear would be destroyed.
.
Fazheng decided to take Liu Zhang into the city after his guards fired the crossbow box, regardless of whether it was hit or not.
But at this moment, suddenly the sound of rumbling war drums rang out in the distant mountains and forests, and the shouts of killing shook the sky. From the mouth of the mountain, two more infantry troops came from behind the Xiliang Army, one with the character "Zhang" written on it, and the other with the character "Zhang"
The word "Wei".
"Zhang Ren, Wei Yan?"
The Xiliang army was greatly frightened. Zhang Ren was the first general of the Sichuan army. The Battle of Bailongjiang in Weiyan and the Battle of Jiangling shocked the world. Who knows that these two are the highest-ranking generals of the Sichuan army. When they arrive, they will definitely bring a large army.
Drums filled the sky and flags were fluttering. The Xiliang army had been fighting for a long time and was already exhausted. Zhang Renwei Yan gave the Xiliang army the final blow. Finally, the morale of the army was in chaos. The Qiang cavalry in green clothes broke into the Xiliang army like sharp blades and charged in the direction of Ma Dai.
, the heavy infantry on both wings completed the outflank, and the Xiliang army was cut into pieces.
The Xiliang army was in chaos.
Ma Chao and Ma Dai's expression turned cold. They didn't expect that Liu Zhang would actually have a backup plan in such a battle. When the Xiliang army reached the last moment, Ma Dai shouted: "Ignore them, kill Liu Zhang, kill Liu Zhang, kill
…”
Before Ma Dai could finish shouting, he suddenly felt a chill in his chest. A crossbow arrow shot over and penetrated his body. Before he could react, the strong force flew Ma Dai away and fell off his horse.
"Second brother."
"Second brother."
Ma Xiu and Ma Tie shouted, and the whole army was divided. Ma Dai fell off his horse. The Xiliang army finally collapsed and began to rout to the rear. Except for the heavy infantry, they stopped advancing and the entire Sichuan army covered them up.
The cavalry horses were unable to charge, so they were no longer cavalry. The Xiliang army was divided into small pieces. The horses were mixed in the sea of infantry, and both the cavalry and the cavalry became the targets of the Sichuan army.
The Xiliang army was defeated, and the Sichuan army was about to win a complete victory. Strong excitement surrounded the Sichuan army, and they became more and more brave as they fought.
The leader of the Qiang in Tsing Yi was also overjoyed. He could finally avenge the old leader and vent his resentment and oppression for months. He went straight in and the Xiliang Cavalry was trampled under the hoofs of the Qiang in Tsing Yi.
Gao Ta wielded his machete, and he had only one target, which was Ma Chao. As long as he killed Ma Chao, the rise of the Tsing Yi Qiang would be easy. If Ma Chao was left behind, Ma Chao's reputation in the Xiliang Army would be a lasting threat to the Tsing Yi Qiang.
haze.
At this moment, a black-armored man came to the tower and shouted loudly: "I am Wei Yan, the general of the Sichuan Army. Who is the leader of you?"
"I will take over as the leader for the time being." Gaota replied while slashing.
"Lead your troops and horses to the side immediately to make way for the Xiliang army to retreat." Wei Yan shouted in a deep voice.
