Chapter 164 Who can cross the sword immediately only I am General Chen
Chen ...... Chen Ying? Wang Shichong looked at Chen Ying's Da Yan in disbelief, hunting in the wind. He is a little inexplicable, Wang Shichong is not a person who cares about his head, when he ambushed Li Shimin, he had already spread more than 200 scouts in front of and behind him, more than 2,000 scouts, a radius of 100 miles is a bit exaggerated, but if he wants to say that the movement of 50 miles, he can definitely know it in time.
Just like Qu Tutong just led out of the camp, he could receive the news as soon as possible.
However, until the sound of the hooves of the cavalry led by Chen Ying entered the eardrums, and until Chen Ying's Da Yan came into sight, Wang Shichong did not receive even a single scout to report the news.
A cold and cruel look appeared on Wang Shichong's face, and his eyes flashed with incomprehension and doubt.
In fact, Wang Shichong's doubts are understandable. Because Wang Shichong didn't know at all, Chen Ying had an army called the Beiwei Army. This army, which only had four regiments, was hidden in the caves of Longmen Mountain. Hide and seek with Wang Shichong's army, when Chen Ying led a large army to raid Wang Shichong, this Tibetan cave began to move. They took advantage of the darkest hour before dawn to find out the direction and deploy the Zheng army sentries and scouts.
Chen Ying's original intention in forming the Beiwei Army was to avoid being ambushed by the enemy during the march, so touching the sentry and sneaking attack was actually the housekeeping skill of the Beiwei Army. There was no suspense, Liu Tong and Xunxiang led the Beiwei army to secretly dispose of most of Wang Shichong's sentinels and scouts.
Although Wang Shichong was puzzled, Wang Shichong's army did not have doubts. The archers beside Wang Shichong invariably opened their bows and threw a rain of arrows towards Chen Ying's department.
"Woo Woo ......"
A dense sound of breaking through the air sounded, but it was beyond everyone's expectations. The rain of arrows covered Chen Ying's hooked and sickle lancers, but although there were many people who were hit by arrows, there were only a few horses that fell from their horses.
It turned out that the tactics of dense cavalry walls, the most feared thing was the shooting of bows and arrows. In order to increase the defensive ability of the hook and sickle lancers, it is necessary to increase the thickness of the armor of the hook and sickle lancers, however, increasing the thickness of the cavalry armor means that the weight of the war horse increases, but Chen Ying does not have the kind of Arabian horse with super weight-bearing capacity and good endurance in his hands. Because the armor that can ignore the arrows means that the weight of the armor is the same as that of the Modao Army.
However, Chen Ying thought about it and took a compromise method, not to increase the thickness of the armor, not to increase the defensive ability of the cavalry armor, but to increase a shield on the left arm, which was the inspiration that Chen Ying got in the later movie "The Lion of the Heavenly General", using high manganese steel to face a folding shield, more than one foot wide, about two feet long, basically can protect most of the vital points.
"Whew......"
A wolf's tooth arrow burst through the air and brushed against Chen Ying's cheek, and the unique coldness of the arrow penetrated into the pores and penetrated directly into the bone marrow, making Chen Ying's body tremble slightly.
However, the lancers advanced like a wall and charged extremely fast. The lancers, whose speed was almost forty-five miles per hour, charged at an average speed of twelve meters per second, a distance of more than eighty paces, which was only a few breaths. Just after Zheng Jun's archers shot an arrow, when they wanted to wind the arrow, the lancers had already rushed to a distance of more than forty paces in front of them.
At this time, Zheng Jun's archers began to panic. They hurriedly shot the arrows in their hands, and at this moment, the sharp hook and sickle spear pierced through the armor of the Zheng soldiers, sliced through the muscles, split the bones, pierced the internal organs, and penetrated the bloody section from the spine, and the strong impact made the barrel of the gun stretch into a bow shape, and then bounce straight.
The blade of the hook scythe pulled out of the hapless man's chest, bringing out a stream of blood. Almost at the same time, more hook sickle guns are using the characteristics of their hooks to easily hook the heads, hands and feet or legs of Zheng Jun's soldiers, but the hook and sickle guns are too vicious, no matter what they hook, driven by huge inertia, Zheng Jun's soldiers have the taste of leaving.
As Gu Long wrote in "The Seven Weapons", if it hooks your hand, your hand will be separated from your wrist; If it hooks your foot, your foot will be separated from your leg. If it catches my throat, it's parting with the world......
Not to mention Wang Shichong's doubts, even Li Shimin was also puzzled. He told the Xuanjia cavalry and the generals that there must be reinforcements, in fact, the reinforcements in Li Shimin's heart were the 100,000 Tang Army led by Qu Tutong, but Li Shimin's long-awaited reinforcements staged Waterloo outside Luoyang City under the surprise attack of Wang Shichong's fire bull array.
Seeing Chen Ying's Da Yan appear in sight, everyone in the remnants under Li Shimin's command shouted excitedly. They gritted their teeth to squeeze the last of their strength out of their bodies.
Hou Junji shouted excitedly: "Great, great, this time we are saved!" ”
Cheng Zhijie's eyes lit up suddenly, and he said excitedly: "Great, we are finally saved!" ”
A smile also appeared on Qin Qiong's face.
No one is really not afraid of death, and when there is hope to live, there is no desire to die.
But Li Shimin is not so optimistic.
Chen Ying's lancers are certainly elite, but Wang Shichong ambushed a full fifty or sixty thousand troops in Longmen Canyon, although under the struggle of the Xuanjia cavalry in the middle of the night, they fought out five or six thousand Wang Shichong, but Wang Shichong still has more than 50,000 elites, and Chen Ying's little people are also to deliver food to others.
However, having a support army is better than nothing, at least it can boost morale and create a good opportunity for the Tianxiong army to break through. He ordered the army to get ready, and once Chen Ying disrupted Wang Shichong's position in Longmen Mountain, he would immediately break through with all his might, and run out as much as he could.
Seeing tens of thousands of archers running over like lost dogs, Wang Shichong's eyelids began to jump wildly again. This battle has been testing his heart, and the Hangu Pass of the World Xiongguan has not succeeded in stopping Chen Ying's attack, which has taken Wang Shichong by surprise.
Wang Shichong's guards from all over the country came to surrender one after another. Wei Governor Shi Zhang Gongjin and Weizhou Thorn Shi Cui Shu descended to Tang with Weizhou City, Dengzhou surrendered, and Xianzhou Governor Tian Zan descended to 25 prefectures; Yang Qing, the governor of Yunzhou, asked to surrender; When Weizhou assassinated the history, Derui surrendered to the seven states of the department; The general Zhang Zhen surrendered in Zhou, and immediately afterwards, Rong, Bian, Wei, Yu and other Kyushu surrendered one after another. At this point, the counties around Luoyang have all fallen into the hands of Li Shimin, and Luoyang has become a lonely city, and he was taken aback again.
Fortunately, he took the strategy of luring the enemy, pretending to be invincible and fled to Nanyang, Li Shimin was still young and vigorous in the end, and he was in the middle of the plan, leading more than 5,000 Xuanjia cavalry to chase and fight all the way, so Wang Shichong laid a pocket array for Li Shimin in Longmen Canyon, when the Xuanjia cavalry retreated under the crazy impact of the Zheng army, especially the main force of the 100,000 Tang Army led by Qu Tutong under the surprise attack of the Fire Bull Array, the whole army was defeated, and now the battle situation has begun to become clear.
The tiger was trapped, but at this juncture, Chen Ying actually ran over again, his heart was twitching, and he almost went crazy.
Wang Shichong's squad of archers rushed up and tried to harass him, and Chen Ying led the hook and sickle lancers and shouted: "Kill these fools for Ye Ye!" ”
Under the leadership of Chen Ying, the hook and sickle lancers lined up in a dense formation and rushed towards the archers of the Zheng army.
Li Shimin looked at the hook and sickle lancers who were rolling forward, and his eyes almost fell to the ground: "Just ...... Just rush up? Will you fight? ”
In Li Shimin's view, Chen Ying's soldiers are small and the best way is to capture the enemy and capture the king first, and then rush Wang Shichong's Chinese army, as long as Wang Shichong's Chinese army is in chaos, they can take the opportunity to break through. Wang Shichong has 5,000 cavalry on Longmen Mountain, and he is condescending and occupies an absolute geographical advantage, so rushing up like this is no different from sending him to death.
Duan Zhixuan closed his eyes in pain, now Chen Ying is their last hope, but this Chen Ying is not as famous as meeting him, it is simply a false appearance.
Cheng Zhijie was so angry that he burst out into foul language: "You are your mother!" ”
Seeing the hook and sickle rushing towards him, the Zheng Jun archers and cavalry did not talk nonsense. This cavalry of the Zheng army was actually one of the Hu cavalry troops of the Sui Dynasty. Mainly the Hu people who surrendered to the Sui Dynasty, these days the warriors who grew on horseback rode their horses to meet them, and pulling the horn bow was a round of rapid shooting.
This kind of horned bow is a soft bow, the rate of fire is extremely fast, it is a terrible weapon in the hands of these well-trained Hu cavalry, the bowstring trembled, several arrows flew out in a line, and the sky above the head of Chen Ying's hooked sickle cavalry suddenly rained arrows. However, this kind of bow can only bully the Tang Army, which has a miserable armor rate, and it will not work when it encounters the hook and sickle cavalry corps, the essence of the armor under Chen Ying's command, looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, they recognize the second, no one dares to recognize the first, not to mention, these hook and sickle lancers also have shields, especially the shield that weighs no more than ten catties, even if it is an armor-piercing arrow, it is difficult to shoot through more than twenty steps, and the light arrows shot by the horn bow, they don't pay attention to it at all, let the arrow rain rush their armor, and they don't blink an eye.
The Hook Sickle Lancers were not armed with bows and arrows, nor did they have crossbow machines, they had only one move, and they took up their hook and sickle guns and made the final charge......
Zheng Jun's Hu cavalry was shocked to find that their dense rain of arrows did not play its due role, falling on the Tang army and bouncing off, the Tang army was as if nothing happened, only a few Tang army lancers fell because of the arrows on their horses, this situation has never happened! Now that the distance between the two sides was very close, they could already see the cold light emitted by the blade of the riding hook and sickle, and they were all frightened and retreated in unison!
However, is it a little too late to retreat now?
Before the Hu cavalry turned their horses, the hook and sickle lancers had already crashed into them with men and horses, and the eight-foot-long hook and sickle easily pierced their bodies, picking them off their horses.
The frightened Hu cavalry wielded their scimitars to parry the hook and sickle, but the scimitars were not much stronger than their leather armor, and they broke at the slightest touch, giving them no chance to use their sword skills!
With the advent of high manganese generals, Chen Ying found that high manganese steel was much harder than high carbon steel, and it was durable and not easy to break, so Chen Ying, who was wealthy, did not hesitate to replace all the spear heads of the hook and sickle gun with the spear head made of high manganese steel.
But all this is not important, the important thing is that Chen Ying's department is unstoppable, I don't know how many Hu cavalry warriors were stabbed by their hook and sickle spears, in the front chest and back out of the chest, or were hooked by the hook and sickle spears, the corpses were separated, or they became super crippled, and the Hu cavalry knights who crashed into the Tang Army's cavalry array, almost all of them were spared!
In just one round, the Hu cavalry suffered a devastating blow, and the people shouted and neighed, and there was a mess. The Hu cavalry general's eyes widened in disbelief, watching the Tang cavalry roll upside down like a tide, and the Hu cavalry warriors were swept away like mustard, only to feel that the world was spinning.
Blue Wolf God, what kind of hellish way of fighting is Tang Jun, who can actually occupy an absolute advantage in cavalry battles! What the hell is wrong with this world!
Chen Ying went on a rampage, and did not attack Wang Shichong's main formation, but rushed directly to the place where Li Shimin was. It is not too late to rescue Li Shimin and clean up Wang Shichong.
Looking at the piles of corpses and burning chariots in front of him, as well as Li Shimin's Da Yan looming in the billowing smoke, Chen Ying breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank God, it's finally not too late!" ”
Li Xiuning was also relieved: "Erlang is still here, thank God!" ”
Chen Ying looked at Li Shimin's appearance, which can be described as very miserable, it is simply extremely miserable. Li Shimin himself was covered with arrows and mottled with blood, the key was the Xuanjia cavalry, including Li Shimin, who now had less than 300 people, and there was not even a single war horse. Although Li Shimin fought hard, they were already exhausted, and they were pressed back slowly by Zheng Jun, and they were almost about to retreat to the bottom.
Chen Ying didn't gloat, he picked up his horizontal knife and pointed forward: "Lancers, charge!" ”
"Rush !!"
The hook and sickle lancers let out a violent roar in unison, flattened their spears, and instigated their horses, like a black hurricane, and the army of the ogre king Zhu Cang rushed straight over.
I don't know if Zhu Cang is particularly interested in Li Shimin, anyway, in this ambush battle, Zhu Cang is definitely the main force ambushing Li Shimin, and more than half of the casualties of the Xuanjia cavalry are caused by Zhu Cang.
The Hook and Sickle Lancer Regiment swept towards Zhu Cang's headquarters like a black torrent. At this time, the hook and sickle lancers belonged to the condescending position, people borrowed the horse's momentum, and the horse's momentum borrowed the terrain, and the faster they charged, the faster they charged, which made the infantry under Zhu Cang's department scattered and chaotic.
Almost effortlessly, Zhu Cang's infantry was swept away.
Li Xiuning's eyes were red and he looked at Li Shimin covered in blood, and he was about to cry, and asked with concern, "Second brother, how are you?" ”
Li Shimin pretended to be relaxed and said, "It's okay, it's a little meaning." ”
As he spoke, Li Shimin arched his hand and said: "General Chen, thank you for saving your life, I, Li Shimin, owe you a life!" ”
Cheng Zhijie arched his hand and said: "I owe you a life...... old Cheng"
Before Chen Ying could speak, Luo Shixin said with a happy face: "Brother Qin, Brother Cheng, you ......."
Li Shimin looked at Chen Ying and said worriedly: "Now is not the time to catch up, you see ......"
Chen Ying looked in the direction that Li Shimin was pointing, only to see Zheng Jun surging up on the hillside like a frenzy. At this time, Chen Ying's department was in exactly the same situation as Li Shimin's original situation, surrounded by Wang Shichong's army left and right in the Longmen Canyon.
Chen Ying smiled disappreciatively: "I've seen a lot of this kind of small scene. ”
Saying that, Chen Ying rode his horse to the halfway point of the mountain and shouted: "Wang Shichong, do you dare to fight me to the death?" ”
The hook and sickle cavalry also shouted neatly: "Wang Shichong, do you dare to fight me to the death?" ”
As more than 5,000 hooked sickle cavalry roared in unison, all the Zheng soldiers looked at each other and trembled.
Li Shimin sighed: "Who can make a sword? Only I am General Chen! ”
