I’m The King Chapter 255: :Battle
; Zhao Jun's cavalry general is called He Dapeng. He is almost fifty years old. He is definitely a veteran in this era. His qualifications are not ordinary. Later, he became the leader of the cavalry under his command. He Dapeng fought with the Xiongnu for many years when he was young, and he was very familiar with cavalry tactics. It is the richest family property that Zhao Qi can come up with, and he put all the cavalry into the battle against these Yan State miscellaneous soldiers at once, with the intention of destroying this annoying bug around him as quickly as possible, so feel at ease In Zhao Qi's mind, these well-trained cavalry, against these ineffective Yan State soldiers, is completely killing a chicken with a sledgehammer, and it is flattery They may have been frightened by the cavalry charge.
The momentum of the charge of the two thousand cavalry group was indeed amazing, but what disappointed He Dapeng was that although the opponent was panicked, they did not collapse as he expected. Although the formation was looser, it did not collapse. It seems that It will take some effort, you have to insert into the opponent's camp first, cut and disperse, and then the infantry who follow behind will clean them up.
20,000 soldiers from the Yan State sound like a lot, but when gathered together, the territory they occupy is limited. At this time, as the cavalry approached, the formation that had just been loosened was due to the fear and fear of the soldiers. , instead squeezed a little closer inward, and everyone squeezed tightly together, as if they could gain a sense of security in this way.
However, if you want to plant flowers and flowers, you will not live, and you willows willows willows willows without any intention. When the cavalry reaches this distance, everyone knows that they can't escape even if they turn around at this time. Instead, they formed an extremely tight formation, with people leaning on each other, people squeezing people, and the spears in their hands had nowhere to put them, and could only be stretched into the air. Unintentionally, they formed an optimal formation against the cavalry. Shape.
What makes these miscellaneous soldiers courageous is the position of Fufeng soldiers from the center.
Four hundred paces, there was no movement above the central position. The Fufeng soldiers who had been singing war songs before seemed to have suddenly become dumb, without the slightest sound. When the cavalry approached three hundred paces, all the soldiers When everyone could clearly see the ferocious faces of the cavalry on the opposite side, there was a sudden burst of frightening noises above the central position, and black lightning bolts shot out from there. In the eyes of the soldiers of Yan State, You can only see the afterimages of these powerful crossbow bolts in the air, but then, the Zhao cavalry who were still three hundred steps away fell off their horses one after another as if they were hit by a heavy hammer head-on. I can see clearly.
With one round of shooting, the Zhao Guo cavalry who rushed up from the opposite side sunk inward.
Seeing all this, all the Yan soldiers cheered loudly.
The sudden blow surprised He Dapeng too. He thought it was a bed crossbow, but he was puzzled that so many bed crossbows gathered on such a miscellaneous position. Surprised, but not timid, the bed crossbow has great lethality, but the speed of fire is his biggest weakness. After one shot, it is almost useless for cavalry.
"Speed up!" he roared loudly.
However, the sound of Linlin sounded again, which made him almost freeze, and the second wave of shooting was like a violent storm, shooting down more people, because this time, they were closer to the opponent's position.
There were still two hundred steps away from the opponent's position, but more than a hundred cavalry fell down, which made He Dapeng furious. Until now, he hadn't realized that a huge crisis was approaching him step by step. There is only one thought, two hundred steps, and one breath.
The sound of Linlin was endless, and the crossbow arrows on the opposite side continued to flow without stopping, and they were fired in wave after wave. The cavalry who rushed to the central position fell to the ground one by one. At fifty paces, numerous dead bodies fell on the ground in an instant, and a wall of corpses was built on the ground. This is a life-and-death line, and no cavalry can cross this line.
On the two wings, however, the cavalry under He Dapeng's command directly collided with the infantry. The infantry array tore a deep hole.
However, these miscellaneous soldiers of Yan State were crowded too tightly. Those in front wanted to escape, but they could not turn around or retreat. In desperation, they stabbed the spears in their hands fiercely, hoping to stop the cavalry After all, the manpower could not match the strength of the cavalry rushing, the front one fell limply, and the whole body was broken, but the mass of deaths successfully delayed the opponent's attack. Speed, behind them, the surviving infantry, still in shock, stabbed the spears in their hands fiercely. They roared like beasts, blood splashed on their faces, and frantically raised their spears, stabbing and poking.
The two wings are slightly loose, but they have not collapsed, but the center is like a stubborn rock in the sea, standing there without shaking. He Dapeng is going crazy. He has fought against the Xiongnu for many years, and has never encountered it. In such a situation, he has seen how the Huns cavalry smashed Zhao's infantry positions, and he also participated in countless cavalry duels, shouting to kill the sky, horseshoes like thunder, one sprint down, and behind him, countless cavalry on both sides will often fall But he has never seen such a situation before. Facing a position defended by a group of infantry, he was unable to move closer. And those Yan soldiers on the two wings, who were obviously terrified to death, did not retreat. It was about to collapse, but it caused huge damage to its own cavalry.
It's not that these miscellaneous soldiers of Yan State don't want to retreat, but they can't. They are too crowded. In the middle, Gao Yuan has a sneer on his lips. Compared with the Donghu cavalry, these Zhao cavalry are really The difference is more than one grade. Donghu people have fought against Gaoyuan a lot, and they already have some ways to deal with this kind of long-range and fast-firing crossbow. When they hear the voice of Nalinlin, they will use Spread out the formation at lightning speed, and spread the gap between the formations as much as possible, so as to reduce the lethality of the crossbow. Of course, this must be based on superb riding skills, and can sprint at high speed. Among them, they quickly complete the turning without colliding with each other. When facing Donghu soldiers, the lethality of the crossbow is far from being as handy as it was used a few times before. , already has to rely on his own combat power. Fortunately, he has not encountered a large-scale Donghu cavalry now, otherwise, with his current strength, he would not be able to fight his opponent at all, and he would have to be the same as other places , and fought according to the city, of course, if he has tens of thousands of Fufeng soldiers, that is another situation.
The Zhao cavalry in front of them are obviously much worse. When the speed of sprinting increases, their reaction speed is much slower, but there are some who react quickly. Companions collided with each other, turning them on their backs, and the others could only look at the black crossbow bolts in despair but were unable to dodge.
"Infantry!" Watching the battle on the two wings, Gao Yuan shouted.
The infantry roared and rushed out on horseback. Behind him, a hundred Fufeng cavalry raised their sabers high and followed the infantry.
The infantry is not rushing against the opponent's cavalry. He brushes against the front of his own position and gallops all the way to the front flank position. At the same time, the arrows shot out one after another like shooting stars, knocking down the cavalry on the opposite side one by one.
Arrows are never in vain, and arrows are deadly. At this moment, the infantry's hard-trained archery is fully displayed.
Shooting seven arrows in a row, the infantry inserted the bow into the bow pocket on the horse's back, then drew out the saber by his side, roaring and rushed into the Zhao cavalry who were attacking the left flank, the Fufeng cavalry rushed Then go up and separate the cavalry on the left from the main force.
Meng Chong on the left wing was in a bitter fight at this time. They were extremely embarrassed by the opponent's cavalry, and they got the help of the infantry. When they killed with one blow, it aroused the wildness in their hearts. With the sound of roaring, they counterattacked and raised their knives and guns at the same time, killing the cavalry who had been divided by the infantry and the others like cutting melons and vegetables, and knocked them to the ground.
The main force of the Zhao army is still slowly advancing towards Jiang Dawei's Yuyang County soldiers, and the Yan army on the opposite side is also coming up. Zhao Qi's attention has been completely placed on the enemy on the opposite side. Dong looked back inadvertently, glanced at the flanking battlefield that had been left behind by them, and opened his mouth in surprise.
He Dapeng's cavalry fell into a bitter battle. Not only did they not break down the positions of the Yan soldiers, but fell into a passive state.
"General!" He exclaimed in surprise. "Look!"
When Zhao Qi turned around, his face had changed color, how could this happen?
"You go to supervise the battle!" He shouted in a deep voice, "Let He Dapeng attack the two wings, and let the infantry behind him attack the central core position. Its two wings, and then besiege the core!"
Zhao Qi is worthy of being a veteran for many years. He just glanced twice and saw the key points on the battlefield behind him." Gao Ziqi? When did the Yan Army produce such a good general? This is where it came from Soldier?"
"General, it seems to be Liaoxi Fufeng!" Zhao Dong, who has better eyesight, saw clearly the small characters on the side of the high-character banner, which marked the name of the place where Gao Yuan came from.
"Fufeng Gaoyuan, I seem to have heard of this name!" Zhao Qi was slightly taken aback, but immediately put the name to the back of his mind, "Go over and command, take it down as soon as possible."
"Yes, General!" Zhao Dong turned around and rode away.
A little farther away, Jiang Dawei also saw the battle in the distance. He was equally astonished, but he had mixed feelings. Although he wished that Gao Yuan would die immediately, the current situation was obvious. Gao Yuan insisted The longer the time, the more Zhao soldiers will be attracted, and his form here will be more favorable, and then, Zhou Yu's final blow will be able to achieve greater results.
