Sweep the World

Chapter 617: : The chaos

Murong Ke’s true mentality is that he has the desire to die. He is obviously hesitant and helpless, but he can’t show a single trace. The whole army is already a frightened bird. If even he has a face of collapse, it will be true. He can only put down the butcher knife and become a prisoner.

The so-called open land is a wilderness with only a few forests, but the bushes and weeds are very luxuriant, and there are also many water pools.

After the Han army came, they arranged the battle formation along the vast forest. The distance from the edge of the forest was about one mile, and they were arranged in a long line.

There are only a few roads that have been opened up by the forest, and they don't seem to be very wide. Since Murong Yan's army did not all retreat along the road, they actually came out from the forest full of trees.

At the edge of the forest, the ground was full of corpses of people and horses, and feather arrows, densely packed like grass, were also pierced all over the ground. Too many people were bleeding, and the blood pooled into a bright red water, and then it flowed into the low-lying pits and turned into a fishy pool of blood.

The number of the Han army's sword soldiers who marched like a wall was not many, and it was about one thousand.

To say that the Mo sword is actually a long-handled three-pointed two-edged sword. There were similar weapons as early as the Warring States period, and it was used by the former Wei Wuzheng. This weapon generally weighs up to fifty catties, and it is difficult for people who are not physically strong to dance. A weapon of fifty kilograms, plus at least sixty kilograms of armor on the body, is equivalent to a soldier's weight of 110 kilograms. It is not enough to have a strong physique, and the necessary endurance is also necessary.

The ultra-high load is destined to be difficult to fight for a long time. The only advantage of an iron suit is that it can ignore the arrows. As long as the formation is close enough, even if it is hit by a high-speed galloping horse, it will not fall, but it cannot be injured by an impact. Things to avoid.

"Arrow formation, stop the diffusion!"

Wei Junchi discovered that the Mo Dao soldiers were a little weak, and the armor and equipment of Murong Yan's army began to charge, decisively instructing the arrow to block the enemy.

Xie Ai is even more busy in the rear. He has ordered his cavalry on the two wings to move according to the opportunity, and the rest of the infantry behind the Modao formation crosses the Modao formation and re-arranges.

The speed of the Diaobao cavalry's charge is not fast.

Under normal circumstances, a horse equipped with a heavy cavalry can carry a load of 300 kilograms with a person's armor. In fact, it is difficult to charge at a speed of more than 50 miles.

A single armor can charge at a speed of more than fifty miles. The former Parthian heavy cavalry could do it, but they rode extremely majestic Arabian horses, but they could only fight no more than ten. minute.

Later, in the Middle Ages, the armored cavalry of the European and Roman iron tanks generally carried more than four hundred catties, and the more terrifying thing was that they carried a weight of about five hundred catties. They were walking about two hundred meters, and then stepping quickly, and then there was a trot, waiting for the enemy to be 50 meters away before they could sprint at full speed with their lances leveled. They could be a superman for about three minutes.

Of course, the heavy cavalry can only move because of the weight of the armor, so once they fall off the horse, they can't stand up without help.

The reason why the sable and leopard cavalry only had a speed of twenty steps was that they hung iron chains full of blade barbs between them. Because of the existence of the iron chain, there will be tugging between each other soon, and they can only maintain the most appropriate speed.

"Damn, that was a stroll in the rain of arrows!" Wei Junchi saw this not the first time that a heavy cavalry charged in a rain of arrows: "Change the covering position and shoot the light cavalry and pawns behind."

Unless the heavy cavalry is unlucky enough to be shot through the faceplate by arrows to the eyes, otherwise no matter how many arrows are shot either by the armor pieces, or inserted into the body, but in fact, it only hurts the flesh at most. , Arrowhead simply cannot have more depth. So, if you see the armored heavy cavalry being shot like a hedgehog by arrows, but still jumping around, it is really not a corpse, it is that the armored heavy cavalry's anti-arrow ability is really too strong.

The Han army on the first front is desperately organizing the shield wall. Shield after shield is buckled against each other, and spears stick out from the gap in the shield wall. The shield wall is full of heavy loads. The sound of breathing, accompanied by the constant shouting of the commander.

"Enemy..." Xie Ai's eyes were attracted by the enemy forces swarming out of the forest: "The whole army has attacked?"

There are only 8,000 Han troops on this front. The defense line has been deployed to the maximum, but it is impossible to block the entire open area. Murong Yan's army has already rushed out of the position where the Han army is not armed.

"It's weird." Yuan Qiao pointed to Murong Yanjun, who was swarming out, but did not make a roundabout maneuver: "Why are you going directly north?"

Xie Ai also found the same problem. Those Murongyan troops who were not in their defense area, whether they were cavalry or infantry, had no intention of participating in the battle at all, and were heading north regardless.

"..." Yuan Qiao showed a thoughtful expression, and was silent: "The enemy is like this. I can't count on interception, so I can only focus on the enemy's armor and equipment."

What Xie Ai was thinking about was why the battle situation was like this. After thinking about it, the only conclusion is that the emperor’s own army has destroyed the morale of Murong Yan’s army, which is the kind of situation that even Murong Ke can no longer control. As for Murong Yanjun completely out of control.

There is nothing wrong with saying that Murong Yan's army is out of control, that is, Murong Ke did not order the entire army to break through. That's how Murong Ke was able to control a part of it, which was enough to show that the prestige accumulated over a long period of time was still useful.

Just when Xie Ai and Yuan Qiao were guessing what was going on, the Diaobao cavalry had already rushed to the position of the shield wall.

The Diaobao cavalry has no standard ordnance. Not only is the armor not uniform, but also the weapons are varied. Most sable and leopard cavalry guys are not spears, they are mainly heavy weapons such as maces, and even long-handled flail and meteor hammers are more numerous than spears.

"Hold it! Hold it! Hold it!"

The officers of the Han army on the side of the shield wall kept making noises. They even punched and kicked the soldiers against the shield, so that the shield could have more wrestling force to withstand the collision.

The slow-moving sable and leopard cavalry. When the knights on horseback approached the shield wall for about 30 paces, the array blew the horns of "Woo-woo-", and the knights in the first row tried their best to make The mount speeds up, slowly increasing from about 20 steps to about 35 steps when approaching the shield wall.

The sound of heavy horses hoofs became one piece, the horses of the war horse trampled on the ground, turning up the tender weeds, and the soil became soft due to repeated trampling, and dust and smoke filled it.

The more dull sound appeared when the sable and leopard cavalry hit the shield wall. It was the horse directly hitting the shield wall. The knight on horseback wielding heavy weapons also slammed the shield wall, so that the muffled sound continued.

When the sable and leopard cavalry hit the shield wall, only a few spears protruding from the gap of the shield wall stabbed the target, and the entire shield wall formed by interlocking with each other moved backward about half a foot under a series of impacts. The shield wall of the location even disintegrated directly.

The few sable and leopard cavalry soldiers who carried long spears directly threw the long spears in their hands. The long spears crossed the low shield wall and fell into the Han army infantry group, which caused a stern and short scream.

Murong Ke, who was located in the distance, was not very excited to see the results of the charge. From his vision, he could see that the sable and leopard cavalry in the first row were only disintegrating the partial shield wall, and then they were trapped in place. After the sable and leopard cavalry rushed up, they could only hit each other with their robe. Many of the mounts of the first row of sable and leopard cavalry were knocked down, and when the chain was pulled over, they fell in pieces.

Peng Yong was the head of a village. The time he joined the Han army can be traced back to the time when Liu Yan was forced to withdraw to the Miaodao archipelago. He was on the first line at this moment, yelling for the spearmen to stab their weapons to attack the enemy on horseback.

"Impossible cavalry, even armored equipment is a target, kill them!" Peng Yong's weapon is a war sword, unable to reach the sable and leopard cavalry: "Several stabbing a target at the same time, can not penetrate the armor. I want to get rid of the horse!"

The spear head of the spear is naturally extremely sharp, but the armor on the Diaobao cavalry is also too thick. The spear that pierced it cannot go deep, and some spears can't be pulled back directly after being hugged.

There are a lot of noises on the battlefield, and it takes a loud voice to pass through the noise and transmit instructions. At that time, basically only a few people who can command the people around him can be commanded.

The sable and leopard cavalry’s charge did not stop. They repeatedly collided row after row. While they were savagely charging, many friendly light cavalry completed a roundabout and began to attack the left and right wings of the Han army. It was entangled with the cavalry of the Han army.

"Heng Gong, the Han army in the rear chased too hard and will soon catch up." Liu Xiang actually wants to escape if he can choose, but he can't do that as long as he wants to be in Murong Yanguo: "There is not much time. Up."

Murong Ke’s blood was dripping in his heart at this moment. He knew that the mink and leopard cavalry was not used in this way at all. It should be the other arms that created excellent fighters, and then put the mink and leopard cavalry into the armor and equipment as the end of the battle. .

In fact, the equipped heavy cavalry is indeed an arm that is extremely dependent on the friendly forces. It should be used as a fixed sea needle. The equipped heavy cavalry cannot last for long. After losing its physical strength, the equipped heavy cavalry cannot even escape. Therefore, It can only be used at the moment of a tiebreaker.

"The formation is broken." Murong Ke's voice did not contain any emotion, and he urged his horse to move slowly: "The front line of the Han army has been chaotic, and the trumpet commanded the Diaobao cavalry to evacuate the battlefield, and Qingqi tried to go through it."

The Diaobao cavalry charged to the eighth-row array before breaking through the shield formation of the Han army. After the shield wall collapsed, the Han army tried to stabilize it. Being brave is not helpful, it can only be trampled on.

"Retreat, retreat!" Peng Yong roared with an expression of turmoil, "Let the heavy infantry stand on top, and the others retreat!"

The shield wall collapsed, and the loaded heavy cavalry didn't want to block it when they collided. Anyone who wanted to block had to be mentally prepared to die under the horse's hooves.

The sable and leopard cavalry are a bit different from other heavy cavalry. They are connected by chains, and the chains are full of bladed barbs. They push forward in a row, not only the horses are hitting and the knights are waving. Weapons, the chain dragged on the ground is pulling the body and squeezing it down. If you don't pull anything, the chain sweeps down the crowd, and the sharp blades and barbs on the chain can also harvest life.

Xie Ai, who was still standing on the nest cart, found that the battle situation here was developing in an unfavorable direction for his side. The organized shield formation was constantly being broken, and the infantry in the front line was under the pressure of the enemy's heavy cavalry. Also retreating inch by inch, the cavalry on the two wings of the enemy and us entangled in a group, and more of the position was the enemy's continuous retreat to the north.

"We have brought too few troops, and time does not allow to build a camp." Yuan Qiao believes that this is a crime of non-war: "For today's plan...only the armor and riding equipment that can hold the enemy at any cost~www .wuxiamtl.com~Xie Ai was silent. Their responsibility was to intercept the enemy. But the strategic intent was not achieved from the beginning. Too many Murongyan troops simply did not care about fleeing north and the enemy did not want to fight. They are seriously underpowered, and they really can only focus on a certain part of the enemy.

What is more surprising is that the Diaobao cavalry stopped charging as the horns sounded, and the interconnected chains were also lifted, and light cavalry continued to pass through them to take over the charge.

The new actions of Murong Yanjun made Xie Ai frequently look at the direction of the forest, where the explosion sound continued, and the Murong Yanjun rushing out of the forest also continued again and again.

Yuan Qiao raised his binoculars and looked at it for a short while, and said in surprise, "They disarmed on the spot?"

Yes, the sable and leopard cavalry are disarmed with the help of auxiliary personnel. The unarmed armor is placed on the workhorse. To complete one is to shoot one away.

Xie Ai intends to intercept it, but the play looks like his army is completely entangled, and Murong Yan's army is everywhere. It is impossible to intercept it.

"Huh!?" Yuan Qiao made a new discovery and raised his finger: "General Husband?"

Xie Ai Shun took a look at his binoculars, the cavalry kept rushing out of his side in the forest, and Ran Min was riding a horse rushing in the forefront.

Because Murong Ke ordered the flag to be put away, Xie Ai didn't know that Murong Ke had been on the scene a long time ago, but used a semaphore to inform Ran Min to attack the disarmed Diaobao cavalry.

Ran Min did not immediately notice the semaphore sent by Xie Ai's orders. From his field of vision, there were Murong Yan's army everywhere. Whoever catches it is to kill who, all the way is a crushing posture to catch Murong Yan's army. Killed wildly on the back. Waiting for his subordinates to find Xie Ai's semaphore, he can be regarded as leading the cavalry under his command to change direction. 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to everyone's reading academy
