Chapter 69 The King of Mo Knife
At this time, the 150 horses who had been following the two hundred horses in the front suddenly turned their heads!
They attacked the side of the cavalry formation on both sides of the enemy!
As different troops, in order to facilitate dispatch on the battlefield, although it is impossible to be as far apart as 100 meters in the middle like the Broken Leaf Army, there are still 100 meters in 100 meters. After the heavy cavalry defeated the Modao Army with a destructive force, the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves.
At this time, the heavy cavalry entered the infantry formation in less than a stick of incense!
If the most powerful force of the Shattered Ye Army was not rushing towards the infantry formation, but towards the enemy's heavy cavalry, it would probably be completely different. Although the chain horses of the Shattered Ye Army's platoon could still gain the upper hand, they would definitely not win decisive victory like they did against the infantry.
The two teams of heavy cavalry behind naturally would not have a serial horse. They suddenly came over with tiger guns and short crossbows!
At the same time, the five hundred cavalrymen from the Bogra Battalion behind him also launched!
They also divided into two strands, one strand of cavalry rushing to the right of the enemy, and the other strand to the left!
At this time, the cavalry did not have a close line to conduct a strong charge, and they still maintained a certain distance between them to prevent their long weapons from accidentally hurting their comrades. That is to say, when the enemy cavalry comes, the war horses will naturally choose to drill into the gap between the opponent's cavalry. At this time, it is time to compete in martial arts, riding and equipment.
This is the case between the left and right, and the front and back. When the heavy cavalry of the Shattered Ye Army on both sides suddenly arrived, the cavalry of Shi Siming's troops had no time to turn the horse's head to fight the enemy!
"call out......."
At this time, the Shattered Ye Jun shot out the first short crossbow without hesitation!
All aimed at the largest enemy war horses!
On a battlefield where life and death are critical, it is still a decisive battlefield. The Thunder Ye Army is so shameless. After the crossbow arrow is shot, the hit rate is as high as 80%. For a moment, the enemy's cavalry may be knocked down to the ground or run around in pain, and the enemy's cavalry formation is in chaos!
Shi Siming was at this time with about 300 personal guards, and about one mile behind the infantry formation was another 4,000 infantry and cavalry. At this time, he naturally understood that his infantry formation was shaking, no, no, no, it was only a matter of time before it fell, because the heavy cavalry of Stayran Burmese had already "breaked" the Modao team and heavy infantry at the front of the infantry formation, and was "pushing down" the powerful crossbowmen!
His expression was solemn, but for a moment of hesitation, he made the people around him blew the order that the troops behind the cavalry formations on both sides would move closer to him, and at the same time, he also issued the order that four thousand infantry and cavalry would move closer to him from a distance to the west.
There were still thousands of cavalry on both sides of him. Although the enemy cavalry was powerful, they started attacking from the flanks unexpectedly, unlike the quick pushing down the infantry army, although the Shattered Ye Army had the upper hand for a while, it was impossible to defeat his cavalry in a short time.
The cavalry he arranged on both sides had 1,500 each, and the enemy was only a few hundred cavalry, and they were all close to hand-to-hand combat, which was a Khitanzhi. These cavalry were the most outstanding cavalry in the entire Tang Dynasty. After overcoming the initial panic, they might not be defeated by the Shattered Ye Army when they fought each other.
There were at least three battalions, following the military system of the Tang Dynasty (the Yan army had no regulations and completely followed the Tang Dynasty's arrangement). The side attack of the Shattered Ye Army just now only disrupted the formation of the heavy cavalry in the front. The two battalions behind had no effect. Under the call of Shi Siming, they were able to turn the horse's head leisurely in the war and gradually move closer to Shi Siming's banner.
At this time, the importance of the general's flag is reflected. On the extremely panicked and tense battlefield, although the general on our side is close to each other, it is common to find people regardless of the east, south, west and north. However, with the obvious signs, the subordinates can quickly find the general on our side!
Just as the two thousand light cavalry in the back formation gradually moved closer to Shi Siming, the five hundred heavy cavalry of the Bogra Battalion also cut into the opponent's heavy cavalry!
At this time, the chain of horses that were still rushing forward had been passed by the individual heavy cavalry behind them. They slowed down and the cavalry above quickly came down to untie the shaft frame that fixed the four war horses, threw the shaft frame to the ground, and then turned the horse's head to the direction of their own formation.
As the vanguard of the horse, the physical strength of the war horse has reached a limit at this time. It is impossible to let it run for a long time. If you cannot retreat quickly when your side is dominant, it will definitely become the target of the enemy cavalry because they are fixed together.
At this time, Sun Xiurong had a thousand cavalry and two thousand infantry troops around him. He saw that his first battle had already been won. If he continued to dispatch cavalry at this time, the best effect would be, but Sun Xiurong, who was watching the battle in the back formation, did not do so.
In the telescope, although the infantry of Shi Siming's troops were defeated, they were only infantry and front-line, and most of the cavalry were still safe!
So he dispatched the infantry!
At first glance, the infantry formations that were crowded together were divided into four small formations in an instant, with three of them being more than 400. Each row of 25 people in the front and 20 people in the side. From the outside to the inside, there are Mo Dao Bing, Tiger Spear, Mo Dao Bing, and Tiger Spear, in total four rows.
From the outside to the inside, there are Mo Dao, Tiger Spear, and Tiger Spear, with three rows in total, and all of them are powerful crossbow soldiers in the middle.
A small square formation has 435 people. This is the force of the latter battalion named after the units in later generations, including 84 Modao soldiers, 127 tiger spear soldiers, and 127 strong crossbow soldiers.
Such organization was obviously arranged when the camp was opened. Otherwise, if it was temporarily organized on the battlefield, even at the level of the Shattered Ye Army would be in chaos!
With this organization, all the tiger spear soldiers in the 500 heavy barracks were used, but there were still 260 Modao soldiers and 100 strong crossbow soldiers left.
The three infantry camps were led by Gao Tinghui himself, and the two small battalions were located behind them, and they still formed a font-shaped rolling attack and advance!
Behind the Pin-shaped shape, Sun Xiurong also asked Cao Lingzhong to lead five hundred cavalry to follow, thus forming a situation where two Pin-shaped formations support each other (one headed by infantry and the other headed by cavalry, and the attack direction can be changed at any time).
At this time, Sun Xiurong was surrounded by a cavalry battalion of 500 people, a small square formation that was added to the infantry, and a smaller square formation composed of 160 shamans and 100 strong crossbow soldiers!
In other words, he can also send a fourth group at any time depending on the battlefield situation (first group: 500 personal guard battalions, 500 heavy cavalry, 2nd group: 500 cavalry battalions, 3rd group, and three infantry small formations), and the fifth group, it is impossible for the enemy to use sharp soldiers to kill Sun Xiurong.
If we use our well-trained training to classify the current army, the Shattered Ye Army is obviously a far-reaching existence. When the small formation led by Gao Tinghui suddenly appeared on the battlefield where the gray fog gradually dissipated, the entire team of cavalry returning to him under the order of Shi Siming has not yet finally formed!
However, at this time, some of the Yan army's collapsed infantry were already surrounding Shi Siming. With Shi Siming's order, hundreds of these defeated generals had to bite the bullet and go.
As mentioned earlier, the Tang army's standard Mo Dao is made of fine iron, weighing 20 kilograms, and it is 1 zhang long, and the blade part is three feet. After reaching the hands of the Thunder Ye Jun, Sun Xiurong thought about it and felt that it was still not enough to use the Mo Dao weapon to break through the formation. So, under the premise of the weight of the Mo Dao, the length of the Mo Dao was increased by one foot, and the blade body seemed a little more delicate.
Since the Shattered Ye Army had reached the smelting level in the late Ming Dynasty (steel-spraying method), and Sun Xiurong had already figured out the technique of adding heavy materials in the Daxia era, the length increased to one foot and one foot, and the Modao could not only chop and strike, but also stand on the ground to deal with cavalry.
This is because the spear used to deal with cavalry at this time is mostly one foot long!
Of course, after the length increases, the chopping technique must also be changed accordingly. If the height is insufficient, it is very uncomfortable to wield, but there is no problem for Mo Daoping, who is generally over 1.8 meters tall.
The armor worn by the Shattered Ye Army and the heavy infantry (tiger spearmen) were all new cotton armor like Sun Xiurong's personal guard camp. However, since it was an infantry army, it was impossible to come and go like the wind like the cavalry, and it was inevitably affected by local crossbows, so it was still worn with a wide-eaves iron helmet with a pause.
So, the Yan army's Mo Dao Bing saw Mo Dao, which was a little different from his side!
"Yo yell..."
Gao Tinghui shouted. After the shouting sounded, the entire small formation shouted almost at the same time, and the two small formations behind it, a cavalry battalion shouted. The power of nearly two thousand people gathered was quite amazing.
That's not all. After seeing the enemy's face, the Mo knife in the first small formation was raised high, and while moving forward with firm steps, stomping his feet, making the formation even more powerful!
The infantry that Shi Siming scattered back naturally had not formed a complete formation. Although it was also the Modao Warrior with the strongest combat power in front, the heavy infantry (the infantry holding heavy weapons is different from the heavy infantry of the Shattered Ye Army), followed by the strong crossbow soldiers arranged again, but suddenly encountered the enemy, and the entire formation was still sparse.
In other words, the current Shi Siming infantry is useless except for personal bravery. After seeing the Thunder Ye Army shouting, they also rushed up with a loud shout. Without the terrifying serial horses, their courage has been restored. At the same time, in order to regain their face in front of Shi Siming, they rushed forward!
"Release..."
After a loud shout, Gao Tinghui raised his sword!
And Mo Daoping also lifted up the weapons in his hand!
"prick......"
Facing the enemy's Mo Daobing, Gao Tinghui actually shouted such a command that obviously belonged to the tiger spear soldiers!
But Mo Daobing, who was in the front row, did not hesitate at all and "sting" Mo Dao out!
The "sting" technique of the Shatter Ye Jun obviously used the technique of a spear and tiger spear. He stepped forward with his left foot, stretched his right foot back, leaned slightly forward, and held his hands at the tail of the knife rod. At this time, they exposed the heavy infantry behind him!
Since Sun Xiurong joined the army, even the infantry army would not treat it as a consumable. The practice of killing one row and then taking the second row after the second row will not appear in the Broken Ye Army unless it is in an extremely urgent situation.
Even the powerful Mo Daoping, they have comrades who will cooperate with him!
Due to the power of Mo Daobing, the tiger spear soldiers in the second row would not encounter any danger in a short period of time. Therefore, in Sun Xiurong's eyes, they could not stand.
In heavy cavalry, cavalry is a tiger gun with one hand and a short crossbow with the other, but it cannot be arranged in this way in the infantry, especially when facing the enemy's heavy infantry, you cannot defeat the enemy with one hand alone.
Bai Xiaode, Ma Lin and others can dance weapons weighing 20 to 30 kilograms with one hand, which is all gifted. Ordinary people, even Mo Daobing, cannot dance Mo Dao with one hand!
Therefore, each of the tiger spearmen in the second row had an extra powerful crossbow in his hand!
As a member of the heavy infantry, a three-stone crossbow is necessary, and the strings were put in early in the morning!
Just as Mo Daoping was short, the tiger spearmen behind him shot powerful crossbow arrows from their shoulders!
The dense formation and powerful heavy arrows, even if they can't shoot through the armor on Mo Daoping, the feeling of shooting the arrow branches on the body is not good, so these people paused!
"prick......"
At this moment, on the ending sound of Gao Tinghui's "子" character, a foot-long Mo Dao stabbed the enemy's only weak point - the throat, like lightning!
Even if the throat is protected by the penis, it is the thinnest part of the body. With the strength of Mo Dao Bing, as long as it hits the part and does not penetrate the penis, the severe pain will make Mo Dao Bing lose its combat effectiveness in an instant!
Chapter completed!
