Conquer the World

Chapter 178 The First Front (Part 2)

The dust and smoke rising behind the formation and the shouting and shouting sounds faintly made Li Xiaozong's heart tighten.From the beginning of the Mandu Wolf with two thousand Mandu Qi cavalry, Li Xiaozong began to be uneasy.He and Mandu Wolf have been opponents for three years. He knows what the other side is. So after discovering that something is wrong, the first thing is to order Pan Mei to quickly retreat to defend Qingxia with a man from the camp. ... it's still late.

A qualified general can roughly determine the number of enemies from the smoke rising from behind.Li Xiaozong did not need to send scouts to inquire about the news, so he could guess that Pan Mei's man in the Zhuangchong camp was only afraid that he had fallen into siege.Coupled with Pan Mei's arrogant temperament, it may not necessarily maintain the formation when retreating. Under the sudden attack, it is really worrying whether or not that rush camp can be retained.

"Zhao Sen, you take a Zhanchong camp and immediately go back to support Pan Mei. You can pick up the tactics according to the situation. If Pan Mei can save him, he must rescue him. In any case, keep the canyon open! "

"General!"

Zhao Sen eagerly said: "If I take another Zhechong battalion, you will have only two Zhechong battalions. Two thousand four hundred infantry ... Mandu wolf has two thousand elite cavalry, I am afraid ...

"You don't have time to worry about me."

Li Xiaozong said in a cold voice: "I said, since I am your commander today, you can only obey this option for any of my orders, and you should understand that compared to opening the channel for the follow-up brigade, my The edge is trivial. "

"Hello!"

Looking at Li Xiaozong's determined face, Zhao Sen knew he could not shake the young general's determination.Although Li Xiaozong was already cautious enough to lead troops out of the canyon, he made the mistake of ignoring the enemy.According to the twelve military orders issued by His Majesty the Great Sui Emperor, if someone has ulterior motives to hold on, this is already a death sentence.

He didn't know the young general well, only that he was from the Longyou Li family and the nephew of General Li Yuanshan. When he was in the Yanwu Academy, President Zhou even praised him more than once.Of course, he also knew that Li Xiaozong was the one who had just been recovered from the war before the war.

Originally, Zhao Sen had little respect for such a young and famous general.But today, the determination on Li Xiaozong's face gave him a heartfelt admiration.

"General take care!"

Zhao Sen clenched his fists and immediately turned away.

"wait!"

Li Xiaozong yelled and told him, "Blow the horn and gather the two hundred cavalry who scattered out. If Pan Mei can't rescue you, you will use the two hundred cavalry to tear open and kill."

"We only have these two hundred cavalry, and it's good to keep the general!"

Zhao Sen shouted.

"Yes……"

Li Xiaozong sighed: "We only have two hundred cavalry, baby is terrible. But this is the battlefield, because the two hundred cavalry are golden, so they must be used in the most suitable place. Go ... no matter what the situation is , You are not allowed to go back and support, even if I die here in battle, I do n’t need you to collect the body. Qingxia ... is your position. "

"Hello!"

Zhao Sen shouted loudly, rubbing his sour nose and striding away.After taking away a Zhechong camp, the people in Li Xiaozong's hands became increasingly thin.The Mandu wolf on the opposite side did not seem to be in a hurry to attack, but watched Li Xiaozong divide his troops again with interest.

"Taller!"

After seeing a member of the Sui Army's rear team out, Mandu Wolf ordered with a smile: "Give you three hundred men. Do you dare to tear the Sui people's formation from the middle!"

Called Thale is a very burly and sturdy prairie man, with the typical beard of the prairie man, his eyebrows glared and his voice sounded like a bell.

"Why don't you dare, if the general is willing to reward me with a beauty in North Liaodi, I dare to take three hundred horses to kill Fan Gu!"

"Haha!"

The Mandu wolf laughed: "If you captured Li Xiaozong in life, I will reward you two beauties of the North Liaodi, and add a cold ride of the North Liao people!"

"Thank you General!"

Thale smiled, he didn't even look at the more than two thousand Sui Jingbing soldiers on the opposite side.

"Children, follow me to kill!"

He yelled and took off the mace that was bound to his back to urge the horse to rush out.Three hundred Mandu Qi cavalry followed him, screaming and sprinting forward.It looks like three hundred hungry wolves who saw their prey.The Mongolian cavalry is extremely fast, everyone is a master of the horse.They can even easily control wild horses that are not equipped with saddles and pedals, just as naturally as a man driving a boat.

The three hundred cavalry took Thale as the arrow and formed a sharp-looking cone array rushing towards the Great Sui Army Formation.

This is the first time in more than 100 years that the Mengyuan people and the Sui people have confronted each other for the first time.Although the scale of this confrontation is not large, it has far-reaching significance.Whether it is Mandu Wolf or Li Xiaozong, they all know the significance of this first battle.Whoever wins will take the lead.

If the Mongolian Yuan people would massacre the five thousand Sui troops who had passed through the canyon, then the pride of the big Sui soldiers would be severely broken into a gap.

"Unbeaten?"

The Mandu wolf looked at the flickering red Sui war flag opposite him, and a cold smile was drawn from the corner of his mouth: "What I broke today is your undefeated name!

......

......

"Zhang Zhen, Cui Min."

Li Xiaozong ordered loudly: "You two protect the two wings, and you are not allowed to move without my military order. Even if Meng Yuan's cavalry rushed into the Chinese army, you would not be rescued without hearing the horn!"

"Hello!"

The other two generals, Zhang Zhen and Cui Min, responded at the same time and returned to the two wings to host the battle.

"Archer!"

Li Xiaozong urged the horse to move forward and went to the front of the battle to personally command.

"Archery arrow!"

Following Li Xiaozong's order, the archers standing in the front row draw a special feather arrow from the arrow pot.The whole body of this arrow was painted bright red, which was thicker than the average feather arrow.After the order, the archers in the first row immediately put this special feather arrow on the bow string, and more than a hundred people shot the arrow in a uniform movement.The elevation angle of their arrow is very high, and the feather arrow they shoot is the limit of the range of their hard bow.

Hundreds of red feather arrows shot out in volley and landed after drawing a beautiful arc in midair.About two hundred and thirty steps away, a red line appeared on the ground.This kind of feather arrow is called standard arrow.The effect is to let the archer know exactly when the enemy is in range.

When the horseshoes of Tall's three hundred cavalry jumped over the red line formed by the arrows, Li Xiaozong violently raised the flag.

"In the first round, throw, shoot arrows!"

More than three hundred archers immediately raised their hard bows and replaced them with expensive armor-breaking cones.This feather arrow can easily tear open the thin armor.Unless the enemy is wearing several layers of thick leather armor, or wearing expensive chain armor, otherwise it can't stop the armor cone's shooting.

The first round of feather arrows drew an arc in mid-air, and more than 300 feather arrows hit the array of Manchuqi cavalry like a hail falling in mid-air.The first round of shots is a coverage blow, and there is no accuracy.However, this kind of blow is difficult to defend because of the large coverage and the feather arrows falling from mid-air.For the infantry's group charge, the defensive archer's projectile is extremely lethal.But for the light cavalry forward, the lethality of the projectile is greatly reduced.

Feather arrows hit the crowd of cavalrymen in Mandu, and immediately two or thirty cavalrymen were shot down.Thaler waved his mace down two successive arrows, and the wildness in his eyes became stronger and stronger.It is obviously not suitable to drop feather arrows with a heavy weapon like mace, but his arms are extremely powerful, and the mace, which is difficult for ordinary people to dance, is as light as a bamboo rod in his hand.

"kill!"

Thaller roared, and the Mandu Qi cavalry behind him roared neatly.

"Huha!"

Huha is the slogan of the Mongolian cavalry charge.It is almost the same as shouting forward when the Sui army charged.

"The second round, flat shot, let go!"

Li Xiaozong issued another order. More than three hundred archers lowered their hard bows and raised them slightly. The feather arrows flew out instantly.After the second command was finished, Li Xiaozong immediately waved the flag and said: "The third round, save shot, let go!"

The archer focused all his sights on the cavalry in front of the enemy. In the third round, more than 300 feather arrows were shot very densely.The feather arrow shot like a huge fist hit the oncoming Mandu Qi cavalry fiercely.Taller danced the mace in front of him, and set aside three or four feather arrows in a row, but after all, there was still some empty space. A feather arrow ripped open his leather armor and drilled into his shoulder. in.

The pain made the burly prairie man even more violent. He ignored the quivering feather arrow on his shoulder and urged the horse to hit the Sui Army straight.

"Archer retreats!"

Li Xiaozong ordered loudly: "The giant shield hand moves forward, and the long arm array!"

About a hundred soldiers with giant shields swiftly took over the archers and rushed to the front. With the command of the commanding captain, a hundred giant shields pierced the ground as if a wall suddenly appeared on the ground same.The long chased hand rushed behind the giant shield, put the long chassis on the giant shield, and the chased forward.

The well-trained Sui Youwei guards completed the transformation in a very short time.In an instant, the army formation turned into a shrunken hedgehog.

A bang!

The cavalry of Manduqi slammed heavily on the giant shield. The soldier who squatted on the ground with his shoulder on his shoulders was knocked over, and was stepped on by the horses that followed. The wailing sounded immediately.However, the Manchuqi cavalry who stepped on them were also pierced to death by the long shovel raised opposite them, and the twenty or so cavalry who rushed to the front hit the shield array with a mouth and completed their mission Their lives.

"Kill the Sui people's army and cut down their generals!"

Half of his body had been soaked with blood, and Thale smashed the head of a big Sui soldier. The leather helmet was smashed and deflated. Bright red blood and white brain plasma burst out, and many of them were mixed. Broken bones.The big Sui soldier collapsed softly before he could make a cry, followed by the ribs crushed by Thale's horse.

Thaler tore apart the shield of Da Sui with the remaining two hundred cavalry knives, but was deeply trapped in the battle.The dense forest like a long chariot makes the cavalry like a quagmire, and it is impossible to give full play to the speed advantage of Qingqi.

For the first time in his life, Thale had engaged the Sui people, but it was not the first time he had killed.He had led soldiers to slaughter other tribes on the grassland several times. Those tribes who did not respect the command of the master of the Qi Banner had to die.He is superior in force and he is a famous warrior in Mandu Banner.

But today, the warrior found that his strength could not be used at all.

Those nasty Sui people, their array is like a natural nemesis of cavalry!Once the windy cavalry got stuck, the knight sitting on the horseback became the target of those long hands.

Thaler waved his mace non-stop, killing the long hands of four Sui people one after another.But his war horse only took one step forward.

Just as he swept away the Sui army soldiers in front of him, two long stabs came from the left side. With a puff, the belly of his horse was severely slashed out. When the spur was pulled out, the viscera of the horse was mixed. Hula fell with a thick, smelly blood.

The horse wailed slowly after falling down, and Thaler's instability also fell.

Before waiting for him to stand up, a long stern pierced his chest.He slammed open the front, but a sharp pain came from his calf.

Tall screamed, and when he looked down, he found that his left leg had been nailed to the ground by a long pierce.He wanted to dance the mace to break the damn long stalk, before raising his arm, he was poked by the second long stalk, the next second, the third long stab was thrust into his belly Seconds, the fourth long shot poked into his heart.

Five or six big Sui Changjia hands, surrounded by this fallen tall prairie man, kept raising the Changjia, and then poked it down fiercely.

After a moment ... where else can you see the face of the man?

The fishy smell of internal organs and the smell of feces are mixed together, which is disgusting.
