Chapter 1190 1191 [Thousands of Miles of Happy Wind] (5)

On the surface, there is nothing unusual about Liang Jun's rear formation. The spear and horse formation is still at the forefront, with shield soldiers interspersed among them. This is also the conventional method for the infantry phalanx to deal with cavalry attacks.

But the more normal the enemy behaved, the more uneasy Zuo Xiao became.

The reason why Xie Lin specially asked him to hide his whereabouts with 10,000 cavalry and arduously pass through the sheep intestine trail in the west was to allow Gu Liang to send reserve troops to support the Longgong Camp with peace of mind, and then eat the reinforcements heading north in one go, thus achieving a complete siege of the Longgong Camp. The strategic concept of the battalion. However, Xiao Qianshan's troops suffered heavy losses before they could reach the enemy, which is enough to show that Xie Lin's plan was completely under Gu Liang's control.

How could a person like Guliang only have one method?

However, the arrow was stuck on the string and had to be fired. Zuo Xiao took a deep breath and ordered the two thousand vanguard cavalry to accelerate forward.

The Xiwu Iron Cavalry has its own way of rushing into formations, especially these two teams of ten thousand people built by Xie Lin himself. The spears used by the vanguard cavalry are 15 feet long, and they start to accelerate at about 120 feet. The speed reaches its maximum around fifty feet, and then gradually begins to slow down.

Unlike ordinary cavalry, which rush to the end, the quality of the Xiwu cavalry determines that they can break the battle situation more easily. They will gradually slow down after reaching the maximum speed, and will only reach the maximum speed when they are about ten feet away from the enemy infantry formation. Half of the speed, measured by Pei Yue's habits in his previous life, was about 20 kilometers per hour.

At this speed, the Xiwu cavalry can stab the enemy infantry with their spears calmly, causing damage by virtue of their superiority and the length of the weapon. Of course, regardless of whether they are stabbed or not, they will turn their horses to the side in time to avoid them. The cavalry followed one after another, like a system that never stops circulating.

Once there is a gap in the infantry formation, the cavalry can speed up again and rush into the gap to kill. For the infantry, losing the support of the complete formation and allowing the cavalry to penetrate deep inside will lead to disaster.

In sharp contrast, in the battle of the Kuta Mountains in the wilderness last year, the barbarian cavalry charged without leaving any room, and were blocked by the main force of the Tai'an Guard led by Gu Fan. There was no chance to turn around, allowing Pei Yue to successfully complete the hammer anvil. The tactics were such that the whole army was annihilated.

Of course Zuo Xiao would not make such a mistake. The vanguard cavalry under his command always maintained the integrity of the formation, constantly attacking Liang Jun's rear formation like scraping fish scales. Both sides killed each other. However, because the cavalry naturally had the advantage, Liang Jun's The casualties were much higher than those of the Western Wu cavalry.

After observing for a while, Zuo Xiao gradually felt relieved.

It seems that Gu Liang's target was the 10,000 cavalry led by Xiao Qianshan. He did not expect that he would lead the army to attack from the diagonal, so he only set a trap directly in front.

The Xiwu cavalry continued to press forward, and the Liang army's rear formation struggled to support them. The two sides gradually became entangled.

As long as such pressure continues, the Liang army's rear formation will inevitably collapse. At that time, the gap will be opened, completely disrupting the opponent's formation, and the Chinese army will be able to capture Gu Liang alive.

Zuo Xiao breathed a long sigh of relief and ordered: "Strengthen the offensive!"

…

In the Liang Army formation, Gu Liang listened to the emergency reports coming from the front and rear, and calmly observed the battlefield situation. Now the explosions in the north had completely stopped, and Xiao Qianshan's troops had been destroyed. At least three thousand men were killed and injured. It can be said to be a great victory.

The opponent is reorganizing their formation and gathering their soldiers. They will not be a threat in a short period of time. The key is that their mounts have become frightening horses. For the cavalry, this is the most fatal problem.

According to Lin Qian, all the land mines created by Pei Yue's people have been buried in the Huwei Plain ahead, and the mines in Kyoto are still being stepped up.

Thinking of Pei Yue who was far away in Kyoto, a gentle look appeared on Gu Liang's face, and then turned serious, and said calmly: "Gu Mang."

"The end is here!" Gu Mang's eyes sparkled.

Gu Liang raised his hand and pointed forward, and said solemnly: "Destroy the cavalry from the north."

Gu Mang said solemnly: "The last general takes orders!"

The front army of Daliang suddenly gave way to both sides like a tide, and then 2,500 cavalry galloped out, with Gu Mang taking the lead in white robes and silver spears.

This valuable cavalry was hidden in the army formation, and its ears had been blocked in advance, so it was not affected by the previous explosion.

At this time, Xiao Qianshan had just gathered his subordinates and had not yet formed a complete formation. He did not ignore the information that the opponent had a cavalry before sending troops, but how could 2,500 cavalry resist a full 20,000 cavalry? It was within his expectation. , the biggest role of this cavalry is probably to protect Gu Liang from retreating at any time.

However, time has changed and things have turned upside down. Facing the frightened Xiwu cavalry whose mounts were not obeying orders, the beam cavalry roared and charged forward, moving forward indomitably.

The cavalry led by Gu Mang are not new recruits with no battlefield experience, but are his confidants who personally trained when he was a general in the Longgong Camp. They followed him from the Western Region to Kyoto. They are all battle-hardened. Old pawn.

In other words, this longbow cavalry has extremely rich experience in fighting against the Western Wu people, and has gone through countless wars. It originally had high morale, but now faced with a frightened Western Wu cavalry, even though it What's there to fear if the troops are at a disadvantage?

As a veteran on the battlefield, Xiao Qianshan certainly understood that at this time he could only bite the bullet and fight. Once he retreated, it would inevitably lead to a rout.

"All soldiers, follow me and kill!"

Xiao Qianshan looked at the rushing Liang cavalry, with a hint of anger on his face, and he rode forward with a spear in his hand.

Gu Mang looked calm and said nothing.

The two cavalry collided with each other, like waves surging along the sea and sky.

The Western Wu cavalry collapsed at the first touch!

…

Behind the Daliang Army's formation, the Western Wu cavalry attacked fiercely, and the Liang Army's formation was already in danger.

Behind the struggling gun-shield formation, hundreds of tall and round soldiers were constantly adjusting their breathing under Gu Fan's guidance.

These people have different identities. Some are already guerrilla-level generals, and some are just ordinary soldiers. Regardless of their respective status, one thing they have in common is that they practice martial arts all year round. Although they are not Gu Fan Such an extreme master is far more powerful than ordinary people, and possesses more tyrannical power with the blessing of inner strength.

Everyone, including Gu Fan, was holding something like a mallet with a wooden handle in their hands, and standing next to them was a colleague holding a fire folding piece.

From time to time, some of the comrades fighting in the front fell down, and they couldn't help but tighten their grip on the mallets in their hands.

A herald rushed over and shouted: "The commander-in-chief has ordered us to counterattack immediately!"

Gu Fan took a deep breath, and his loud voice spread throughout the countryside: "Light the fire!"

Hundreds of fuses were lit, and the fuses under the wooden handles were lit.

Gu Fan's stern eyes looked at the Wu Army cavalry rushing forward, and roared: "Let go!"

Hundreds of firm and powerful arms were raised at the same time, moving forward uniformly, throwing out with all their strength.

Like smoke and rain swaying all over the sky, hundreds of homemade grenades pierced the sky and fell in a perfect parabola into the Xiwu cavalry formation.

Zuo Xiao watched blankly, and all the Xiwu cavalry looked blank, watching helplessly as hundreds of logs fell from above their heads.

What is Liang Jun doing?

This thing is not a long bow and sharp arrows. Could it be that they can kill the Western Wu cavalry?

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Hundreds of gorgeous fireworks exploded in the Xiwu cavalry formation, and the situation between heaven and earth changed!
