Chapter nine hundred and sixty third situation change
Retreat? How easy is it?
If an army is an infantryman, they turn around and give it to the enemy. Withdrawal means great casualties.
The cavalry had a strong impact, but now it was blocked. It could not rush out, as for turning around.
Then don't mention it, at least there must be room.
But judging from the current situation of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, although it is not crowded, it is almost the same.
Anyway, if I don’t want to withdraw troops, someone will have to cut off the rear and have to last for quite a long time.
"Meng Qi, you go first, I will cut off the back." Cao Hong shouted at the critical moment.
"Take care, General" Ma Chao didn't say nonsense, and yelled, immediately turned his head and left slowly.
"Kill." Cao Hong roared, leading the cavalry of Wei State to advance instead of retreating, and rushed towards the Iron Armored Pojun.
From this point of view, we can see how close the Wei, Liang and Qin are now. They are like wearing a pair of pants.
For this reason, Cao Hong even sacrificed his cavalry under his tent. Why? Just because helping Qin, Liang was more beneficial than disadvantages to Wei.
"Killing" Cao Hong is not only the commander of Wei in the northwest, but also his prestige in the army. He gritted his teeth and cut off the rear. The soldiers would not give up. They followed Cao Hong and yelled, not retreating but advancing, making some space for Ma Chao and his team.
"kill"
There is a saying that takes advantage of your illness and kill you. Regarding the retreat of Ma Chao and others, the Pojuns would not give up this great opportunity, and they shouted and rushed over.
"Puchi, puchi"
The battle between Pojun and Cao Hong's troops came to an instant. Pojun waved Chu swords and chopped down one Cao Hong cavalry after another.
Either chopping people or horses.
There were constant soldiers, or war horses cut by Chu swords, and they screamed and fell to the ground.
Cropping wheat. The cavalry of Cao Hong's troops were cut off like they were cut. Although the courage to cut off the rear is commendable, the strength difference is too big after all.
If you talk about Cao Hong's mood now, it's blood coming from his heart. Although these cavalry are not the elite of Wei State or the tiger and leopard cavalry, they are also the cavalry he has accumulated bit by bit.
How could Cao Hong not let blood drop in his heart? But if he regrets losing his last sentence, Cao Hong does not regret it. Even if he fights all the cavalry in his troops, he must ensure that Ma Chao will lead his troops out smoothly.
Today, Qin State's losses have been huge, and it must not be wiped out.
If the tiger and leopard cavalry were here, how could you be so rampant?
While Cao Hong's heart was bleeding, he was also yelling, but unfortunately the tiger and leopard were riding in the east.
"Puchi, Puchi" Today is the first formation of the newly established Iron Armored Po Army, but it also made them taste blood, step by step, and reap the lives of the Cao Wei cavalry step by step.
Not only did they become colder, but their willpower became stronger, and even the skills of killing people became purer. If they had to use two or three pills just now, they could succeed with just one knife.
progress.
This iron-armored Pojun is making progress at an extremely fast speed. He can never make anything when he closes the door and builds cars. Although Pojun has been training wildly in the past year, he has never been exposed to the battlefield once and has any shortcomings in ability and cannot be called the world's number one.
But with this big victory, the great victory was so happy. Pojun, whether it was cooperation with each other or the speed of killing, he truly became the best in the world.
Cao Hong was unwilling to accept it, believing that if there were tigers and leopards here, Pojun would not be allowed to be rampant. But at this moment, even if the eight thousand Pojun faced 50,000 tigers and leopards, they would not be afraid.
As for the outcome, you can't tell it. You have to fight before you can draw a conclusion.
Therefore, if Cao Hong is, he is just a fantasy.
In the next period of time, there was almost a confrontation between blood and tears. The cavalry of Cao Hong's troops fell one by one, but they had to cut off the rear.
Finally, Ma Chao and the others left the army and turned around and left.
"General Cao, let's go." Ma Chao turned around and shouted at Cao Hong.
"Retreat" Cao Hong finally felt relieved when he heard this, and he couldn't hide his urgency and shouted.
The "retreat" the cavalry of Cao Wei was like being amnesty, roaring away one after another. But even so, it would take some time for the cavalry to turn their heads.
During this process, countless Cao Wei cavalry were killed by Chu soldiers.
Cao's army was extremely miserable.
"Let's go" When Cao Hongcheng turned his horse's head, he roared and left without looking back. He was about to leave, he wanted to leave this nightmare place.
A hand crossbow that can be fired continuously, a crossbow bed that can be fired continuously, and a armored army that is as powerful as a bunker.
It was clearly tens of thousands of infantrymen, but for more than 100,000 cavalry, it was the sheep's purity. But the sheep suddenly showed its fangs and bit the wolf instead.
Heavy losses and blood.
"Ga." The cavalrymen who had left the battlefield drove their horses and fled to this area. As for the cavalrymen behind, they could only watch the robes in front of them in a daze, and they all collapsed under the blade of the Chu army.
"It's really a joyful victory." After Cao Hong, Ma Chao and others escaped, Zhang Fei sighed. It's not impossible for infantry to defeat the cavalry.
But that was in the case of huge numbers and ambushing.
For example, the famous siege of Mayi during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han was the Xiongnu Shanyu and Emperor Wu of Han. The troops were about 100,000 Xiongnu cavalry, while Emperor Wu of Han had 300,000 to 400,000.
Under such circumstances, Emperor Wu of Han had the courage to ambush the Huns. It can be seen that infantry could not defeat the cavalry without three to five times the strength of the troops.
But now, Xiliang, Cao Wei cavalry is 100,000, while Chu army is only 30,000 to 40,000, and its troops are still at an absolute disadvantage. It actually won, and it is a big victory.
Zhang Fei had to sigh.
"This is all your Majesty," Chen Da sighed after hearing this, not flattery, but a innocent respect. If it weren't for the crossbow, if it weren't for the crossbow bed, if it weren't for Kou Feng's full support, eight thousand armors were forged in a relatively tight situation.
The Chu army was not so easy to win.
Especially Pojun, if he only wore leather armor, there would be a lot of casualties. Now, there are only a small number of casualties. Although the enemy's sword is also sharp, it cannot completely cut off the armor.
However, Chen Da could see clearly that Po Jun was injured more often. But the injury could be cured, and he would die if he died.
"What should I do next?"
Immediately, Chen Da turned his head and looked at Zhang Fei.
There are two roads in front of them now, one is pursuit, but retreat. Chasing is not impossible, because there is a Yellow River ahead.
Although Ma Chao and Cao Hong escaped, they must cross the river. If they lead their troops to pursue them, they are very likely to kill another group of cavalry.
But there are risks. If someone breaks the rear, they meet the cavalry without arraying and spending all the crossbows during the advancement.
Even Pojun will probably suffer heavy losses.
"No, at least 40,000 cavalry were destroyed today. For our blockade this time, the purpose has been achieved. After all, Liang State is not a matter of one day or one night. It is better to return to Mei County first, inform Your Majesty of the situation on the front line, and then make a decision."
Zhang Fei was also moved to pursue, but after all, he was also the commander of the first army, holding the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers. After a while of consideration, Zhang Fei said.
"good"
Chen Da nodded and nodded.
Immediately, the two of them urged the soldiers to clean the battlefield together, burying the corpses, picking up weapons, recycling the war horses, etc. After all this, it almost went dark.
"Go back"
Zhang Fei and Chen Da looked at each other, and Zhang Fei said.
"Woo chicken woo"
Chen Da took out his close-fitting rhino horns, put them beside his mouth and started playing, and the army returned to Tiao County.
In Tiao County, Kou Feng had already received news that Chen Da had defeated the Xiliang Iron Cavalry north of Chan County. When Chen Da and others led their troops to return, they were very close to Chan County.
Kou Feng personally led a large number of civil and military officials from the army out of the city to greet him.
Outside the city gate north, Kou Feng stood in the middle of the creek, his eyes were full of excitement, and he destroyed 40,000 to 50,000 cavalrymen. This was a great victory.
The strength comparison before the war was that Qin, Liang and Wei had accumulated 250,000 troops in Yongliang, including 170,000 cavalry and 80,000 infantry.
The force of attacking abroad is only 233,000 people and 50,000 cavalrymen.
Especially some infantry are armies established by ethnic minorities, and their combat effectiveness can only be reduced by half.
That is, the actual power is only about 200,000.
In fact, this comparison is pretty good, but the number of cavalry is too different, almost three times the difference. On the plains of Yongliang, I always feel guilty.
Now, Zhang Fei and Chen Da have killed 40,000 to 50,000 of the cavalry in one go and consumed a quarter of the cavalry. This is definitely a crucial victory.
It is of great significance for Kou Feng to continue to erode Yongliang next. In addition to being excited, Kou Feng really finds a word to describe his mood at this moment.
At this time, a large army appeared in the north. Kou Feng couldn't help but look up and saw a "Chu, the character "Shishou Flag" fluttering towards him, very courageous.
There are two generals under the throne, both of whom are strong, wearing golden armor and strong horses. You can tell at a glance that they are two powerful generals. They are the latter general Zhang Fei and the general Chen Da of the army.
"His Majesty"
Before Zhang Fei and Chen Da waited for the army to approach, the light cavalry came to Kou Feng and dismounted and bowed.
"The two generals are in trouble. The city has prepared a celebration banquet, let's go." Kou Feng smiled and helped Zhang Fei up and Chen Da, and said.
"promise"
Zhang Fei and Chen Daying promised.
Immediately, Kou Feng led civil and military officials back to jump into the county. A happy victory naturally required a happy celebration.
