Section 65 Advance and retreat
Seeing that his beloved armored cavalry ended up like this, Emilian's face turned pale, his eyes were blazing, and a sense of evil aura rushed to the top of his forehead. These Tanghe people were so hateful that they actually used such despicable means to make the cavalry team, who was unfamiliar with the situation, suffer such a huge loss.
Seeing the neatly arranged enemy cavalry formations pounced towards his central army formation with a scattered force, Helian Bo naturally understood what the other party was thinking. His troops were at an absolute disadvantage. As long as he broke through his central army with an advantageous cavalry, his front line would naturally collapse, and it could be said that he had won the battle in one battle.
Until the horse trap he had arranged in advance, Helianbo, who had been silent, then his face was slightly frowning and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The horse trap was arranged in a very successful manner. In order to prevent the enemy's horse detectives from being noticed, Helianbo had to greatly reduce the number of horse traps, and also made clever designs in the arrangement direction. He chose many more hidden positions that were not easy to be discovered by the opponent's scouts. Although the power was greatly weakened, it ensured its good concealment. At this time, it seemed that it had indeed performed a miraculous effect.
Many cavalry that poured into the predetermined area fell into the trap. As the cover collapsed, before the time could still scream, the cavalry that fell into the trap of horse pit were placed with their horses and thorns and stabbed them through the scattered piles. The blood that splattered suddenly filled the huge and wide pit. The cavalry following behind had no time and could not react at all. They followed one after another, pounced on the corpses of their comrades. The dull blunt sounds one after another, playing a tragic marche of death, which made the entire cavalry team feel panic.
But this does not affect the overall situation. A small number of trapped horse pits can only interfere, but it is difficult to turn the world around. With the adjustment of pace and position, the huge cavalry team quickly passed through the trap area. The sound of iron hooves was deafening, and the rolled up yellow dust was enough to cover the sky and the sun. The earth seemed to tremble, and the mountains and rivers changed color.
He sighed softly, and seeing that the enemy's cavalry had approached his own defense area through the spacious central plain, Helianbo could only tie the belt around his waist, waved his thick arms, and the archers hidden behind began to exert their power. Waves of feather arrows started to whirlwinds and attacked the army swept by the black and swept. The experienced cavalry had already pulled down the iron leaf mask, bowed their heads and curled up, and pressed them tightly on the horse's back. The arrows rushing towards them did not pose much threat to them. Except for shooting a few places where the armor could not be prevented, it was difficult for them to cause any substantial damage.
However, they were not so lucky next time. They rode their horses through the bow and arrow strike zone, and a huge rock fell in the air. This was Linghu Yi's idea. Since Shuangdui City could no longer be saved, they simply broke the dead and concentrated all the catapults they could collect to the rear of the troops. Although the number was not too large and the quality was far inferior to the improved stone throwing tools used in the northwest region, these things were powerful weapons for defense after all. After all, large rocks with a diameter of more than one meter fell from the air and hit the target, which was enough to smash a cavalry into meat paste. This brought visual and psychological impact far exceeded the real lethality.
This is not the most painful blow. The wave after wave of guns is really the King of Yama who is buying lives. The black guns are always a storm whenever the gunmen lined up with their arms waved. The natural stars of these heavy cavalry are simply tailor-made for heavy cavalry. The huge impact force and the acceleration of the relative advance, and the sharp iron spear head are simply a nightmare for the cavalry. The thick iron leaf armor cannot resist the spear flying rapidly with a shrill whistle. The super lethality can even pierce the cavalry and the horse. Seeing the surrounding comrades falling off to the ground, the frightened soldiers could only shrink their necks and tighten their bodies and run wildly. At this moment, there is no way out, so they can only fight to the death.
Although it caused huge damage to the enemy, Helianbo also knew that this could not really end the battle. The final decisive battle would have to be decided through a head-on battle. He glanced at the heavy infantry who had been waiting for the battle. The specially made five-meter-long horse-repelled rifle had been raised, inserted obliquely into the soil behind him, and half-kneeled. The soldiers who were preparing to replenish the subsequent soldiers were all ready to replace the dead comrades at any time, and the giant shield had been raised. The soldiers holding steel knives were all in their place, and they made the final sprint to welcome the heavy cavalry.
The huge sea tide finally rushed to the embankment, and the impact of both sides aroused countless dazzling waves. The collision between heavy cavalry and heavy infantry can be said to be the sharpest spear on the continent that faced the strongest shield, either the spear breaking or the shield breaking, and its tragic degree is no less than a real battle.
The huge impact force made the strong shield torn apart in an instant. Although the spear's efforts were not small. The sharp horse-repelling spear was like a summoning of death, and the generous giant shield also discouraged anyone. However, the brave cavalry still hit the thick line of defense with the iron spear and body in their hands. Countless waves were higher and higher than waves. The frontline of the line's struggle was soon covered with a thick layer of corpses. The enemy and us could no longer distinguish them. They only knew how to charge against the charge, people shouted and neighed, screamed and whined, like a huge concert hall, compose a magnificent tragic song in the history of human war.
Seeing the waves of cavalry after wave were shattered, the ashen-faced general almost broke the flag in his hand, and his blood-stained eyes stared at the front. But what disappointed him was that although the enemy's front had shaken, it had never collapsed. Even he felt incomprehensible. If he continued like this, he might have lost all the troops before he occupied Shuangduiji. Could it be that his destiny would be ruined here? He could not imagine what the consequences would be.
"Sir, the enemy's front has been loose, and you can use the reserve team!" Seeing that the winner was crazy, the deputy was a little worried. He did not have as many concerns and worries as the main general, and he had to be much clearer in his mind.
He was shocked and took a long breath. Emilian calmed down and shook his head, then returned to the battlefield. Sure enough, the opponent's defense line was already shaking under the impact of his superior forces, and it was the time to use the reserve team.
However, the moment he raised his hand, the deputy suddenly shouted in surprise: "Sir, look!"
Looking along the deputy's gaze, smoke and dust had been rolled up from the distance of the left flank, which was obviously a trace of the cavalry.
"Wow, these guys are just taking us off guard with this little force? It's so funny." Emilian had recovered his calmness, and the dawn of victory was already in front of him. He didn't want to capsize in the gutter.
"Order the left-wing infantry team to prepare!" He was calm and ordered. He had been on guard against this move. When the enemy was obviously inferior to his strength, he dared to confront him head-on. This was obviously conspiracy. He arranged mobile infantry on both the left and right wings to deal with the unexpected at any time. As expected, he was right and Emilian was secretly proud.
The attack of the light cavalry did not cause much damage to the Luzon army. Instead, it was caused by the beautiful counterattack of the Luzon infantry and archers who were prepared, and a fierce attack caused a lot of damage. Fortunately, the light cavalry formed a flexible formation and the leading general was calm. He retreated immediately when he noticed something was wrong, but he still left many bodies.
Just as Emilian was proudly turning his attention back to the front battlefield, the situation there had changed drastically. After experiencing the cruel tug-of-war for positions, Helianbo made a desperate bet on almost all his long-range strike weapons, and the crazy offensive immediately suppressed the enemy's attack momentum. At this moment, Helianbo issued an order, and all the spearheads, archers and baggage soldiers retreated first, and the infantry were responsible for cutting off the rear.
Taking advantage of the moment after the crazy counterattack, the soldiers who had been ambushing for a long time ignited the fire-burning objects on the position, and the raging fire immediately spread to the entire battlefield. In the dry environment in early winter and the premeditated plan, the entire earth suddenly turned into a sea of fire. With the help of the sweeping of the fire, Helianbo finally led the few remaining infantry to quickly move. Looking at the battlefield swallowed by the fire and the bodies of countless robes, Helianbo's face, which was even more red by the fire, looked particularly ferocious. The fierce murderous aura in his pair of tiger eyes was enough to make anyone frightened: "If you don't avenge, you will not be a human being! Let's go!"
"Biao'er, your father is awake. Go and visit him quickly. Don't fall behind him." The delicate skin as delicate as a baby is not half wrinkles or flaws, and the delicate face is hard to believe that the beautiful woman in front of her is already in her early thirties. Her plump figure, tall and trembling chest, and her long and smooth thighs appear and appear under the high-slit cheongsam, making people feel swaying.
"Oh?" The young man in Jinyi was excited and immediately rushed out of the chair, "Take it serious?"
"Will your mother lie to you? I just went to Anfu Palace to pay my respects. When I saw the military minister He Zhiqiu had entered your father's bedroom. I watched him for a long time and had not seen him come out. I guess your father must be talking to him. Later, Eunuch Mao came out and I asked, "Your father is awake and his spirit is much better than the previous two days. Go and greet you quickly." The beautiful woman frowned, and her beautiful willow eyebrows showed a graceful arc, which was particularly pleasing. No wonder many concubines in the palace scolded her vixen behind her back, saying that the Emperor's illness was mainly caused by her belly.
"Well, is there anyone else who knows that the father is awake?" the young man calmed down and asked quickly.
"Probably no one else knows that your father has a ban, and it is strictly forbidden for the concubines in the palace to enter Anfu Palace, and even the queen is not allowed to go." The beautiful woman's face showed helplessness.
"The father is in poor health, so naturally he should avoid being better so as not to worsen his condition." The young man seemed to see through his mother's wishes and comforted him.
"Then go quickly. The more you go first, the more you can show your filial piety and your father is happy." The beautiful woman urged that she had only such a backer, and the situation in the court in the current state is confusing. If she had no support, how could she survive the decades in the future?
The young man nodded, "The child is over now. I have to work hard these two days. Pay more attention to who the father summoned. It is better to be able to find out the content of the conversation." After that, he turned around and left.
The beautiful woman sighed lightly, and deep sorrow rose in her wonderful eyes.
