In front of the Tupper City, the two Yue Rong armies fought in full swing. At the moment, another battle, which was small in scale but particularly intense, had already begun outside the Pioneer Fort.

The mighty general of Wei and Tielezhen, Bo Chishu, who was the most trusted person, took two thousand Canglang cavalry to circumnavigate a hundred miles to search for the Vietnamese reinforcements and baggage teams that might have arrived. Just two days ago, they suddenly met the Youzhou army led by Xiao Chengzhi who was escorting the grain.

This was another encounter. Although both sides were alert, they still rushed to face the enemy. However, this was obviously not a bad thing for Bo Chishu and Canglang Iron Cavalry. Although they saw more Vietnamese troops, they were not afraid at all. After discovering the enemy, they did not even hesitate at all. They howled and divided into more than ten teams, shooting straight like sharp arrows, and had already stopped and set up a formation to protect the grain of the Yue army.

Seeing that the enemy was coming fiercely, the soldiers from Xiao Chengzhi knew that it was impossible to avoid the war and retreat. Under his instructions, they also made a decisive defense, and they set up the most classic round formation for infantry in the field to deal with the impact of cavalry.

The outermost part is the shield hand that stands a giant shield that rises from a man in front of him, and behind him are the spearmen lined up, followed by the fast knife hand ready to finish the knife at any time, and then the crossbowman who puts an arrow on the string. As for the food, supplies and other vehicles, they are protected at the center of the circular array.

The Youzhou Army is worthy of being the best among the Great Vietnamese border troops. Even if they encounter an enemy suddenly, they are still shocked and can set up defensive formations according to the intentions of the general in a short time. Even when Xiao Chengzhi saw it, he was secretly amazed and praised it. At the same time, his confidence increased. After holding the short halberd in his hand, he decided to kill the enemy and make contributions.

However, the Guirong cavalry was fast enough, so they could only set up a defensive formation. In the end, before they could shoot arrows, the cavalry teams in front of them had already roared to the front. With the shouts, they first shot sharp arrows upwards of the heads of the Vietnamese army while they were running.

Although the number of arrows is only two or three hundred, it still poses a considerable threat.

"Shou! Squat!" Xiao Chengzhi immediately ordered loudly, but instead of dismounting and avoiding the horse, he raised his short halberd, and saw the direction of the arrows, and instead met. The iron short halberd weighing more than ten pounds was in his hand like a lamp core, and it sounded strangely, and then he opened all the arrows shot in front of him.

The more arrows rushed towards the soldiers in the center of the circular formation. However, they were not panicked at all, and even the queue was not scattered. At the same time, the knife hands quickly raised small round shields and pressed them on their heads, protecting the top of their heads and the crossbowmen behind them.

As for the spearmen in front, they were most closely guarded when they shouted and raised their long shields to face the arrows. These giant shields were more than one person tall and one person wide. They were raised up obliquely and could cover a large area. When the arrows shot on the shield, they could only leave some marks on the top and could not nail them to the surface.

This round of shooting caused almost no damage to the Youzhou Army, but only made the shield formation at the forefront of their defensive formation slightly flawed. But this was enough for the Canglang Iron Cavalry. They quickly seized this opportunity, collected their bows and took advantage of the horse's rushing force, and quickly broke into the formation.

As the elite of Gui Rong elites who can rush straight to tens of thousands of Vietnamese troops with two thousand troops and can also suppress the opponent's retreat, their impact is undoubtedly quite amazing. Each of these cavalry is as brave as the wolf on the grassland, with sharp eyes and even more ruthless moves. They grabbed those tiny flaws at once. With the flash of the sword, they slashed straight towards the exposed limbs of the shield hands.

Suddenly, screamed and blood flew in the air with its remaining limbs. They had already broken a large gap by them because they wanted to block the outer periphery of the circular formation. Only in just a short moment later, more cavalry broke the formation, and entered from the front and left and right at the same time, which was a great idea to cut and smash the circular formation in one fell swoop.

Xiao Chengzhi's eyes flashed. Although he was eager to try and wanted to rush forward to meet the enemy, he also knew that he was the commander of the entire army at this time, and command and response were the key, so he whispered loudly: "Still! Let go!" Although the enemy broke the gap, his own army could still fight back.

Sure enough, with his order, the spearmen behind the Shield Hand had quickly stabbed the spears in their hands and grabbed the cavalry mounts about twelve feet away. At the same time, the crossbowman behind had also shot out all the arrows on the string and counterattacked those enemies who were about to scatter and rush out.

Below is the spear that is coming, and above are densely flying arrows. This really makes the Canglang Iron Cavalry dare not rush again. They can only control their horses to dodge to the side, and at the same time, they reclaim the scimitar that is about to kill the enemy and resist the whistling arrows.

These cavalry all experienced many battles and were best at dealing with cold arrows from all directions. Although they were a little embarrassed at this time, they could block them one by one. The arrows were allowed to pass the spear and control the horses to continue to advance. They even thought about dispersing the entire circle formation.

However, they still underestimated the tenacity of this Youzhou army. Even if the spearmen were approached by them, they could slash them with their swords. The entire team was not scattered. They just suddenly parted in a shout, revealing the thousands of sword shields behind them who were ready to go.

The sword and shield hands shouted to rob, one round shield facing the scimitar that the enemy was slashed, and the other steel sword bent down, slashing at the horse's legs. Even at this time, they were still not confused and still followed the rules of fighting against the Guirong Army, and injured the enemy and the horses were first injured.

This time, the dozens of Guirong cavalry who rushed in the front could not escape the hundreds or thousands of scimitars. With the sound of puffing, the horses fell down, and the cavalry on the horse rolled down, and were then finished with the knife from the rear, and they were killed in an instant.

The performance of these clear-level battle formations, which do not affect each other, but cooperate with tacit understanding, is indeed beyond the expectations of these Canglang Iron Cavalry. Even Bo Chishu quickly controlled the horse and turned around, not daring to continue to penetrate the sword formation, but instead rushed to the side, and the sword light flashed, and the heads of the two spearmen had been cut off.

When the spearmen were approached by the enemy, they lost their power to protect themselves. All they could rely on was the sword and shield hand behind them. The latter did not disappoint them. When they saw Bo Chishu and others turn around quickly and rush towards their robes, they quickly dispersed and decisively surrounded and killed the enemy in groups of five.

But the two-legged person could not escape the four-legged horse. The Canglang Iron Cavalry relied on his superb riding skills to intersperse quickly in such a narrow environment, and maintained a considerable response. He actually shook off the sword and shield masters to capture the lives of the spearmen.

"Retreat, escape..." Bo Chishu shouted in his heart, looking forward to seeing the spearmen running away in scattered due to fear. As long as they really do this, the entire circular formation will inevitably be completely in chaos, and the purpose of disrupting the entire battle formation will be achieved.

To be honest, the tenacity of this Youzhou army was completely beyond his expectations. In every previous battle, including the previous battle in Camel City, he could lead the Canglang Iron Cavalry to successfully break through the opponent's formation and disrupt the entire defense, so as to at least kill the enemy.

It can be said that the impact and cutting of the Canglang Iron Cavalry has always been in every way, and there are few opponents. But this time, in front of this round formation, it was a small setback, which damaged some cavalry.

However, Bo Chishu still firmly believed that the final victory of this battle would be him, because he had grasped their biggest flaw, and the spearman had become a lamb to be slaughtered, and under fear, the round formation broke itself.

But immediately, what happened shocked Bo Chishu - none of the spearmen fled in panic, but when facing the fierce cavalry and the scimitar that roared, they chose to pull back the spear, and fight for the last chance to stab their horses.

So, another scream was screaming and blood flowing, and the man was overturned.

Although another group of spearmen fell down, they fought to the death and stabbed dozens of cavalry that rushed over. At this time, the sword and shield hands in the rear had arrived quickly, roaring and falling down the steel knife, harvesting the life of the Canglang Iron Cavalry who had not yet been able to rise up, and naturally screamed in blood.

Not to mention the Guirong people, even Xiao Chengzhi, who was located in the center, was stunned. He didn't expect that these spearmen would be so calm that they would use their own lives to hold back the enemy and die together.

"Is this the determination of the soldiers of the border army?" He sighed in his heart, almost unable to hold back. Seeing that the subordinates were fighting in front of him, fighting with their blood and life, his main general was huddled behind, which really made him feel unwilling, and the fire was burning.

The spirit of sacrifice of the spearmen made the plan of the Canglang Iron Cavalry fail, and at the same time, it also paid a tragic price. Hundreds of people were caught off guard. Even if they rolled out on the spot and avoided the attacks immediately, they could not escape the siege of more people and were instantly dismembered by the scattered blade...

This is obviously not a battle result that Bo Chishu can accept. The Canglang Iron Cavalry is the most elite army of the Shiwei tribe. The key to the Khan's reliance on sweeping the grassland and subduing the tribes. Once there are too many casualties, even if the Vietnamese military food and grass can be seized this time, it will be more than worth the loss.

What's more, if you continue to fight for life, you have to say who will win or lose. So, after seeing that things cannot be done, Bo Chishu whistled decisively and took the lead in killing the side, but he no longer had any entanglements, just wanted to kill through the round formation and kill the whole team again.

This was beyond the expectations of the Youzhou Army, and Xiao Chengzhi was unable to respond in time. He was to let them fight out of the circular formation with blood after a rush, run out for a while, and then reorganize the queue before they came again.
