Chapter 855: Full of Fighting Spirit

"Understood." Gu Shan, who had grown into a qualified battalion officer, immediately agreed, and then rode across the battlefield, informing one battalion commander or company commander after another, and for a while, wherever he went, more arrow-sharp blades pointed at the cavalry on both sides that surrounded them.

The drumbeat above the castle tower still sounded as smoothly as before, and there was no intention of launching a final attack. The four thousand cavalry on both sides were still waiting, and many of them did not even have swords, but still held their bows and crossbows, looking for opportunities to shoot.

Just as they were looking for an opportunity, the opportunity suddenly came to the door, and a large number of cavalry in green uniforms suddenly rushed out and rushed straight in front of them.

"Arrows, arrows." On this occasion, the Tatar cavalry naturally did not miss it, and at the moment the bows and arrows came from a distance, so that many of the Tatar cavalry soldiers who were rushing towards them were shot off their horses, but more warriors relied on their skillful horsemanship and rapid speed to break through the blockade of bows and arrows and kill in front of them.

Just as the Tatar cavalry on both sides were about to launch a second wave of bow and arrow attacks, the mercenary warriors had already rushed in front of them with speed, and then one side with a bow and arrow in his hand, and the other hand with a sharp saber in his hand, and the one-sided slaughter began.

The sudden change caught the Tatar cavalry off guard, and such a smooth process was somewhat unexpected by Su He, Gu Shan and others. But the opportunity is in front of him, no one will not cherish it, all the soldiers shouted at the moment, and the heads of the Tatar army flew into the air, blood flowed all over the ground, and the bloody breath went straight to the sky.

"Not good!"

Standing on the top of the city tower, the sudden child exclaimed, and hurriedly shouted loudly to the drummer on the side: "Pass the order, the whole army will be dispatched, and the two wings will be outflanked and the Chinese army will attack together." ”

The order was given too late. If it had been a quarter of an hour in the morning, perhaps the situation would not have been too bad, if not in its favor, but now, it was obviously late, everything was late.

The four thousand cavalry on both flanks were taken by surprise, one rushed head-on, losing at least a quarter of their men and horses, and they had already lost the best chance to make a charge.

"General, quickly withdraw the troops." General Muren and General Hu Lin, who were watching the battle from the sidelines, knew that the only way to retreat quickly was to retreat quickly, otherwise the losses would only be greater.

Although he didn't want to admit this result, Ku Xiao'er also knew that the battle formation was chaotic, and even the battle spirit was lost, and the losses would only be greater if he continued to fight, so he had no choice but to nod and say: "Order, Mingjin retreats." The archers on the towers are prepared in case the enemy takes the opportunity to storm the city. ”

Mingjin's voice finally sounded, listening to the ears of Goer, who was still in the array, like a fairy sound, under a burst of fierce killing, finally killed a bloody road, the army retreated straight to the city of Taru, but compared to the 10,000 cavalry out of the city, not even half of the real retreat.

In the two-hour battle, the Tatar iron cavalry paid the price of more than 5,000 people, including nearly 2,000 wounded soldiers. On the other hand, the Tatar cavalry division had less than 500 dead soldiers and about 3,000 wounded. Just looking at the comparison of deaths, it has reached an exaggerated level of nearly ten to one, so it can be seen that the strength and power of the arrow tip formation.

"Poor Kou Mo chase, let the recruit division come forward to clean up the battlefield, and the Tatar division retreat to rest." The army commander Hu Mang looked at the bloody battlefield in front of him, with a look of satisfaction and joy. Although there were 3,500 dead and wounded, it did not use the slightest firearm to achieve the result of killing 5,000 enemies and wounding 2,000 enemies.

Su He, who was covered in the blood of the enemy, led the army back, and Hu Mang and Shebei stepped forward for a while, comforting and praising for a while. At present, the army commander Hu Mang bluntly said that he would report this battle report to the sixth young master, and strive to get a collective second-class merit for the Tatar division.

Although they were already very tired from the battle, when they heard the result, all the soldiers of the Tatar division cheered loudly, which not only represented honor, but also meant that each of them would receive a rich reward under this battle.

This scene made the other divisions and regiments look envious. The head of the heavy cavalry regiment, chasing the wind, stepped forward directly, came to Su He's front and hammered the other party's bloody chest, "Don't pay attention to it, such a good thing didn't call our heavy cavalry regiment, and the credit will not be given to us, ah?" ”

"Hehe, the combat power of the heavy cavalry regiment is so strong, once it is shot, it will inevitably make the enemy frightened, the so-called good steel should be used on the blade, or save it for the next time to make greater contributions." Su Yiyi always had a straight face before he changed, and he smiled.

Hearing this, Chasing the Wind immediately nodded proudly. This time, Su He did not arrange for their heavy cavalry regiment to go into battle to kill the enemy, although he was a little regretful, he was not angry. As the other party just said, good steel is to be used on the blade, and he is looking forward to the moment when he shows his strength.

On the battlefield, the recruit division felt the cruelty of war by cleaning the battlefield. During this period, there were some Tatar cavalry who pretended to be dead, and they found that there were many warriors who killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions, so that the other recruits were envious, and everyone did the same, regardless of whether the enemy was dead or not, it was always not wrong to go up and make up for the two swords first.

"The recruit division is also growing." Commander Humang looked at this scene and said with relief.

"Yes, everyone is growing, but can you add a yard to them." The deputy commander on the side said with another idea.

"Oh? What does the deputy commander mean? ”

"Jingguan. This is the best means that the Sixth Young Master uses to deter his opponent, and it is also an opportunity to train new soldiers. Don't hide it, take the initiative to say what is in your heart.

"Well, the idea is good, let's give the order to Commander Lu Zhuo." Hu Mang only hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Although killing a dead man is not a hero, it can be regarded as seeing blood. With this experience, you will never be as scared as you were when you go to the battlefield. Of course, the establishment of the Kyoto Temple can also effectively deter the enemies in the city of Taru, so that they can know what the fate of the mercenary enemy will be.

Both commanders agreed, and Jingguan was immediately established. In this process, countless recruits vomited, and even turned pale and weak, but as the two commanders thought, after experiencing this incident, they did mature a lot, and when they fought again, the knife was more stable, and their mentality would be more firm.

On the city of Alu, Ku Bao'er and the others watched the establishment of a huge Jingguan under the city, but there was no way at all. It was already getting dark, and it was difficult to predict what the outcome would be at this time, and even if you wanted to take revenge, you could only wait for tomorrow daylight.

"Let's rest, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and tomorrow's battle will definitely make up for all the losses of today." After throwing down such a sentence, Hu Xiao'er turned around and left.

While the Tatar cavalry is waiting for revenge, the mercenaries are also waiting for tomorrow's battle and making new achievements. Because just now, the army commander Hu Mang has already announced the decision of the god of war. The Tatar division is given a collective second-class merit, and all rewards will be delivered to the barracks the next day.

The soldiers of the Tatar division naturally had a happy face, and in the eyes of the soldiers of the other divisions, in addition to envy, they were secretly determined to strive for a better performance in the first battle tomorrow.

In anticipation of both parties, the moon set and the sun rose, and the daylight of the next day arrived as scheduled.

Ku Xiao'er re-ordered the generals, this time it was another general, Hu Lin, who also gave him 10,000 cavalry. After summing up the experience of the previous time, this time he handed over the power of the war to him on the battlefield.

Here in the New First Army, the independent division replaced the Tatar division from yesterday's Great War. Considering that the independent division still had six battalions of musketeers, Hu Mang replaced them all and replaced them with the regiment directly under Deng Yu, and also drew three battalions from the recruit division for training. In addition, the heavy cavalry regiment and the light cavalry regiment stood on the side, waiting for the call of the division commander Xin Honghai.

Naturally, there is such an arrangement, because the Tatar division made too many meritorious contributions in yesterday's war, and other divisions and regiments already have a lot of opinions.

As a result, the total number of mercenaries in today's battle is 6,900, two more than yesterday's. At the same time, the heavy cavalry regiment was still on standby, ready to support. In this way, the number of troops has exceeded the opponent by nearly 1,000 people.

The drums of war on one side were beating, the trumpets of the army on the other side were loud, and the armies of both sides began to assemble in the center of the battlefield at about 9 a.m. The distance is still far away, and a heavy pressure has already hit the face.

The Tatar general Hu Lin, who was in the middle of the army, did not rush to the battlefield at the first time, he had to look at the mercenaries' fighting style first, so as to change the strategic method at any time. Just last night, he had discussed the mercenary's arrow point formation with the two generals Goyle and Muren, and made a plan to deal with it, that is, to dodge.

Your arrow tip formation is not very sharp, can penetrate the cavalry battle formation, then when you come, we will get out of the way, give me a feeling of punching the cotton, when you are weak, they are suddenly killing from both sides, attacking your wings, so that they are not the enemy of the tip of the knife, just attacking the back of the knife, presumably able to suppress the mercenary's courage and sharpness to the greatest extent.

On the battlefield, once a side loses its sharpness first, it often means that it is necessary to distinguish between winning and losing. At this moment, Hu Lin can be said to be full of confidence.

Xin Honghai is also full of fighting spirit and confidence. He was able to rise to the division commander in one step, and he knew that there were some lucky elements in it, but if he wanted to keep his position, he must have a bright enough performance, and today's battle is undoubtedly the best opportunity to show himself.
