Ruan Dakui rode on the horse, watching a team of hundreds of iron cavalry, under the cover of nearly a thousand infantry soldiers, slowly approaching the hill where he was, and couldn't help but squint his eyes.

The surrounding area of ​​Zhuoluo City is relatively flat. Ruan Dakui and the hills opposite are only two high grounds leading to the Karochuan River. At this time, the Dangxiang Army was chaotic by the Song army and began to slowly move closer to Zhuoluo City. Some of the hills on the periphery were useless, and the battlefield gradually pressed towards Zhuoluo City. Ruan Dakui's troops slowly fell into the vast ocean of the Dangxiang Army.

Ruan Dakui didn't understand that this kind of intelligence army had simulated the situation before sending troops and acted according to the planned plan. After being surrounded by the Dangxiang Army, the Song army on these two hills no longer rushed down, but instead stood firmly on the mountain. The Song army on the periphery squeezed towards Zhuoluo City, and would use a large army to rush towards the Dangxiang Army head-on. If all the Dangxiang Army could really force all the Dangxiang Army into the city, they would have no way to escape and achieve the result that Xu Ping dared not imagine before.

Seeing Dangxiang pressing to the foot of the mountain, Ruan Dakui said in a deep voice: "The first capital will dismount, remove the bow and arrow, and change the long axe!"

Dutou agreed and got off his horse with his subordinates, untied his sword, bow and arrow, and replaced all kinds of short-selling soldiers with a long axe that he had prepared earlier.

Ruan Dakui turned his head to Cao Pinglun, the right marquis of Yu beside him, and said, "Mr. Yu, you can also change to a long axe to fight, and follow the first marquis. The iron cavalry has heavy armor and is not moving fast. This time it is from bottom to top, which is even more inconvenient. When the first marquis disrupts the formation of the iron cavalry, you can lead the second marquis to help and kill the knights. Remember, the thieves retreat, don't chase them, just go up the mountain!"

Cao Pinglun agreed, got off his horse, and ordered the second capital, and changed his long axe.

The sun had risen, the dew on the grass on the hillside gradually dried up, green buds were found under the dead grass, and iron rode over, crushing the green of spring. There were goshawks circling above their heads, as if looking for their own prey.

Kan Du looked at the Dangxiang Iron Cavalry who was slowly reaching the hillside, and felt his mouth dry and his heart was beating violently. Using flesh and blood to repel the Iron Cavalry requires courage. Although he has practiced countless times, when he comes to the battlefield, when he really faces the enemy and is really bleeding and dies, he is still nervous.

True courage is not to rush hard with blood, but to always keep a clear mind on the battlefield where flesh and blood are flying, and rush up when you need yourself the most. Cut the knife to the place where the enemy is most afraid of, and to rush the blood when you need it most.

A horn sounded behind him, and Kan Du spat in his head, shouted, and took the lead to greet the mountain.

The horn did not stop, and the sound of drums that shook the sky became louder, and the rain of arrows streaked over the head of the First Capital and sprinkled towards the Dangxiang Army.

The Song army brought armor-breaking arrows, but facing the Yuanhao personal guards who were both armored, even if the armor-breaking arrows could break armor, the damage to the enemy would be limited. The Song army's arrow rain was not to shoot the Dangxiang soldiers who rushed up, but to suppress them, so that the iron-armored cavalry could not shoot arrows and cover the first capital long axe infantry who rushed forward.

Kan Dutou felt his heart beating violently, as if he was about to jump out of his chest, his eyes gradually became blurred, and the oncoming Dangxiang Iron Cavalry became like a mountain, pressing towards him.

He could not retreat, and the deputy head who was besieged behind was the only one who did not hold a long axe. The steel knife in his hand would chop everyone who retreated. Moreover, in the military system, he could not take anyone away even if he retreated. He was the head of the head of the military order. If he did not execute the military order, his position would be replaced by the captain of the first team. Without special authorization, the head of the head of the head of the commander, and to change the military order, the chief and deputy commander and the left and right Yuhou must agree. Once the military order is issued, it must be implemented.

It seemed that all the sounds were gone in the world. Kan Du's head could only hear his heartbeat and footsteps. The veins of his hand holding the long axe were exposed. I don't know if his hand became part of the long axe or the long axe became part of his body.

"kill!"

When Kan Du saw the face of the oncoming Dangxiang cavalry, he shouted suddenly. All fear seemed to be shouted out by this loud shout, and blood surged up, and the whole world was back.

The long axe did not accurately cut the horse's legs, but just cut a hole in the horse's legs. Kan Du's head staggered. He shook his body and stood up, bit his steel teeth, and slashed the horse's legs with an axe.

The tall war horse in iron armor neighed and knelt on the ground, and the knight on the horse was pressed under the horse.

As the first war horse fell, the first war horse was like a beast awakened from sleep, facing it in a dispersed formation and smashing the horse's legs with a battle axe. No iron armor could protect the horse's legs, especially at the joints, each war horse fell one after another.

The long swords and halberds were used to fight against the iron cavalry with infantry. Long axes were actually popular in the Song Dynasty. The long axe handle avoided the attacks of the horse knights. The heavy axe, even if it was not sharp, was enough to break the horse's legs. The iron armored knight without a horse was clumsy and had almost no power to fight back when facing the long axe.

To defeat the charge, the most effective way is to counter-charge at the most critical moment, and even a intensive and powerful long-range strike cannot be replaced. Cavalry is not a tank, and the heavy cavalry's charge is subject to many restrictions. They have no choices when preparing at a constant speed, what distance to start accelerating, and what distance to be the best attack position. If they are counter-charged by infantry holding long weapons at the distance to start accelerating, the heavy cavalry will be like they cannot lift it up in one breath and will be suffocated to death.

Even tanks must be protected by infantry when attacking, let alone heavy cavalry. However, the heavy cavalry charge under the cover of infantry, such a difficult tactical combination, the Dangxiang people did not have the ability to organize it. In this era, few troops could be organized. There was no need to do what could be done, and it was impossible to do what was necessary.

Seeing that the second master was led by Cao Pinglun, the Marquis of Right Yu, came like a wall with a long axe in his hand, chopping the iron cavalry that had been missed to the ground, Wuliu felt a mouthful of blood surged into his throat and almost spurted out. The iron cavalry rushed straight to the severely waited elite infantry. The best thing was to attack the weak brigade whose morale had been shaken. However, when he saw the Song army on the opposite side used the long axe to repel, he still felt fear. He had heard of this kind of tactic, but he did not expect that he would be hit like this. The Song army on the opposite side was simply explaining the tactics of military books to him with practical actions.

He shook his head suddenly, and Wuliu shouted: "Infantryman comes forward and save my iron cavalry!"

Cao Pinglun rushed to Kan Dutou and patted his shoulder: "Dou Tou, today's battle, you will have no worries for the rest of your life! The infantry on the opposite side has come up, we slowly retreat, there is no need to fight with them head-on!"

Kan Dutou nodded mutely, and his head gradually woke up. Then he felt unbearable pain in his waist. When he looked down, he found that a big hole was opened in his waist, and blood was constantly coming out. I don’t know when he was injured by some weapon.

The Dangxiang infantry slowly went up the mountain, and the long axe soldiers of the Song army rushed out slowly retreated back to their own formation. On the way back, they also took the Dangxiang Knights who were not dead on the ground, and at the same time gathered the casualties on their own.

Returning to the formation, Cao Pinglun sang to Ruan Dakui with his hands: "Commander, the invading thieves have been repelled! Our troops also suffered heavy casualties. First, the city has more than 30 casualties, and it is no longer enough to fight again. Second, they are better, only a dozen people have been lost."

Cao Pinglun nodded: "The wounded in the first capital will be treated in the backyard. I will return to you for the time being and be with the second capital. Your military achievements have been recorded, and there will be a great reward after the war!"

Cao Pinglun and Kan Dutou thanked each other, began to check the casualties of the battle and arranged for Yu Zhong to go there. This time, he rushed out to meet the enemy. In terms of the number of casualties of officers and soldiers, the Song army was still more than Dangxiang, but it was cost-effective no matter how to judge. The Song army's algorithm was that people, horses and ars were summed up together, but for the iron cavalry, horses and ars actually had a greater effect than people.
