Although they suffered a head-on attack, the Tibetan cavalry was still extremely fierce. Not afraid of death, it seems to be their usual combat style.

The wave of cavalry that rushed to the front had already slammed into the shield wall of the Zhou army like the rabbit in "Waiting for the Rabbit". They wanted to use this method to tear a hole in the shield wall and let the cavalry behind rush in.

The huge impact power advantage of the cavalry will be brought into full play at such a time.

However, the Tubo people seem to have underestimated Cao Renshi a little. After so many battles with the Garchinling, this "often defeated general" has accumulated more combat experience than anyone else. To deal with the Tibetan cavalry, he is the most virtuous.

Just as the Tibetan cavalry was about to collide with the iron shield, countless lances stabbed out of the gaps in the shield. The end of the lance was against a pit on the ground, and two sergeants held it in the middle. The Tibetan cavalry rushed up and couldn't help but crash into the lance, the horses pierced and screamed, and the knights were either pierced to death or fell off their horses, and were immediately dragged into the shield by the hook gunners behind the shield, and chopped into meat puree.

Near the shield wall where the hand-to-hand combat was met, there was an instantaneous scream and blood mist, as if the wheels of a huge meat grinder had already rotated.

"Crossbow!!"

Cao Renshuai held high the command flag and shouted loudly.

The shield wall of the Zhou army was like a series of valves tightly controlled by a computer program, removing a piece of the upper edge at intervals, and then three rows of crossbowmen stepped forward alternately, and the whizzing crossbow arrows shot straight out, accurately falling into the Tibetan cavalry group.

The crossbow stood tall in the distance, unable to see the details of the battlefield clearly, but he could vaguely see that his soldiers and horses had been beaten to pieces, and suffered heavy casualties. Many knights wearing black cloth robes and leather armor originally rode war horses on land like flying black dots, and many black dots converged into a black torrent.

But as the war progressed, this "torrent" had become much thinner. Countless black dots had fallen to the ground and could not move.

On the other hand, on the Zhou army's side, the steel-like shield wall did not move at all.

The crossbow made his heart tense for a while: it has always been that the plateau iron cavalry is four times the size of the Central Plains foot soldiers. It's strange today, the vanguard I sent is not much less than Xue Shao's previous army, but after I lost more than half of it, I haven't been able to shake one of his shield walls!!

At this moment, Xue Shao issued another order on the watchtower, ordering the light cavalry troops of the Yu Hou Army on the left and right to dispatch.

The cavalry units of the left and right Yu Hou army are the mainstream light cavalry and military cavalry in the Great Zhou army. They weren't as elite as the Yue Riders, and they weren't as expensive.

But that doesn't mean they're bad!

As soon as Xue Shao's order came out, the two light cavalry of the left and right Yu Hou Army had 3,000 horsemen each, flying out from both sides of the battlefield, like a big peng spreading its wings and pulling out two beautiful flying wing arcs.

Outflank!

The three Tibetan cavalry who killed in front of the front army were all surrounded by them and took the back road.

The crossbows and generals who were watching the battle in Tibet were all shocked, and immediately played the golden cymbals of the retreating troops.

It's late.

Cao Renshi waved the flag, and the big shield fell to the ground instantly. Behind him, a white forest of Da Mo knives was erected high, and the wolf-like Da Zhou Mo swordsmen rushed out.

The nearly three-meter-long Da Mo knife requires a very strong sergeant to use his waist rod as an axis, and his arms are slashed out violently. In the face of such a big killing weapon, even the hardest armor will be cut through, and even the strongest horse can be chopped to the ground. As for the mortal human being, there is no other way to survive in front of it except to dodge and escape.

The Tibetan cavalry, which was covered by the circle, fell into the encirclement, and the advantage of mobility could no longer be brought into play. In the face of the Mo Dao Formation, the clumsy horses seemed to have become a burden. Many Tibetan knights jumped off their horses and dodged around the formation with their legs.

Many Tibetans wanted to break out of the battle circle and withdraw to their own formation, but the encirclement network pulled out by the two wings of the Zhou army's Yuhou cavalry has been in an arc and galloping. Against the enemies in the circle, they are a huge fan. This meant that whoever dared to approach would be confronted with the bows and arrows of all the Yu Hou light cavalry.

This encirclement net is like the hardest and sharpest layer of peripheral blades on a meat grinder. It's been spinning all the time, who dares to get close to instant mash!

Standing on the high slope and looking at the scene in front of him, his eyes kept wide, and his expression gradually stiffened.

He stood like this, motionless and silent, as if he had become a clay statue.

He watched as nearly 10,000 plateau iron horsemen from the three-way vanguard he sent turned into piles of cold meat in front of Xue Shao's front army.

Its surging black torrent disappeared in an instant.

10,000!

I didn't even ride back!!

When the sun sets, the red flag is displayed on the Zhou Jun lookout. The left and right Yu Hou rode back to the camp, and the infantry of Cao Renshi's headquarters gathered into a formation again, like a giant tofu block carved by a ghostly axe. The large shield wall at the front was raised high, and the flags in the middle of the battle were tumbling and the sergeants shouted loudly.

The crossbow suddenly came back to his senses and took a few breaths, pointing at the middle of the formation, "What are they shouting?" ”

The generals around him looked at each other, and no one answered.

"Say!"

A general immediately summoned the battlefield scout to come forward and ask questions, and then told Zampu that the Zhou army was shouting, 'The rats are vulnerable!' ’

The crossbow was so hateful that his fists clenched and his muscles burst out, and both eyes were bloodshot and turned red.

The big and small arguments and others hurriedly came to persuade them, saying that it was too dark to fight again, so it was better to withdraw from the army for the time being and find another good plan.

The crossbow also knew in his heart that he had really encountered a ruthless character this time. With a moment of anger alone, he would never be able to defeat a master soldier like Xue Shao.

"Withdraw!"

More than 100,000 plateau iron horsemen threw down nearly 10,000 corpses and retreated more than ten miles to the village.

Xue Shao stood on a high watchtower, watching the Tibetan cavalry in the telescope gradually receding like a black tide.

He lowered his binoculars, a grim smile on his face. With a wave of his hand, "Clear the battlefield and withdraw the troops back to the camp." ”

The red flag waved and the golden horn sounded, and the soldiers of Cao Renshi's division returned to the Qinghai Lake camp with a large number of war weapons, such as war horses and weapons that they had collected from the battlefield.

That night, Xue Shao celebrated his achievements with wine for Cao Renshi and other meritorious generals in the handsome camp.

Cao Renshi was originally a general of the Tiger Division under Wang Xiaojie, but this time he followed Xue Shao on the expedition but was reused, and now he has fought such a hearty victory. Xue Shao took the lead, and all the generals came to toast Cao Renshi. He's really going to be happy.

Only Gong Ren sat silently in the corner drinking wine, and the joy in front of him seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Xue Chuyu walked up to him with a pot of fruit wine and sat down, poured it into the empty cup he had given him, and then raised his glass and bumped into it.

On Gong Ren barely showed a smile at this time, "General Yuguan, please." ”

The two of them had a drink against each other.

"Dragon paste fruit wine, are you used to drinking it?" Xue Chuyu asked.

On Gongren nodded, "Although it's a little lighter, it's still quite drunk." ”

Xue Chuyu glanced at Cao Renshi's group of generals who were laughing and drinking, and then said to Gong Ren: "This is just a small battle, and it's not time for you to show your skills." You have to believe in Xue Shuai, he has his own reasonable arrangements. ”

On Gongren frowned lightly and nodded.

Xue Shao and Cao Renshi were surrounded by generals and were being poured wine. Through the gap in the crowd, Xue Shao glanced at Gong Ren and Xue Chuyu, couldn't help but smile secretly, and then continued to drink with the generals.

At this moment, the trumpets suddenly sounded in the army, and Jin Wu made a great effort.

An enemy is coming to rob the camp!

It was suddenly cold in the tent, and everyone fell silent.

Gong Ren bounced up from his seat and shouted, "The enemy has robbed the camp!" ”

"I know." Xue Shao walked over with a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous. If the enemy wants to rob the camp, then let him rob it. Dang Jinbi, you go out and take care of it. Others, continue to drink. ”

On Gong Ren's eyes were almost round, this is okay?

Xue Chuyu walked up to him, "Listen to Xue Shuai, don't be nervous - come, I'll fill it up for you." ”

"Still drinking?!" On Gong Ren shouted, "The plateau iron cavalry is coming like the wind, and it will be killed in this handsome tent in an instant!" ”

"Come in one, I'll send a big urn of wine." Xue Shao smiled, "If you can't finish drinking, go around." ”

The generals laughed.

On Gong Ren was speechless.

Xue Chuyu smiled, "Don't be nervous. Day or night, at the time of victory or after defeat, no one has been able to rob our barracks. The so-called impregnable is nothing more than that. ”

"I don't believe it!" On Gong Ren put the cup down, "Unless I see it with my own eyes!" ”

Xue Shao nodded at Xue Chuyu, "You go with him." ”

Xue Chuyu hugged his fists and strode out of the tent with Gong Ren.

Xue Shao raised his glass, "Generals, go on—please drink this full!" ”

In the vast night, outside the camp of the Zhou army in Qinghai Lake, countless cavalry rushed like a tide. The iron hooves shook and the sword flashed, and the huge Qinghai Lake was shaken by the waves.

In the Zhou military camp, it was eerily quiet. It seems that 100,000 people have fallen into a hangover and deep sleep, and they actually turn a blind eye to the boundless and menacing Tubo Iron Horse in front of them.

The Tubo generals who came to rob the camp saw this formation from a distance, and their hearts were a little bottomless.

Something is wrong, something is so wrong!

"Bang bang bang bang - bang - "

In the silence of the night, the terrifying sound of the Fuyuan giant crossbow was like a thunderbolt, tearing apart the entire night.

Immediately afterward, a deafening roar exploded in the Tibetan cavalry. Huge clouds of fire rose up, reflecting the frightened faces of the Tibetan people.

Suddenly, the people were frightened and chaotic.

Some of the men under the command of the crossbow may have heard of the rumors of the "big explosion", but they are not the fearless tigers and wolves under the command of the Garchinling. Suddenly, in the face of such a heavenly might, they panicked and were confused.

"Bang bang bang bang - bang - "

Another round of Fuyuan giant crossbow bombardment, and the fire clouds in the Tubo cavalry group rolled and screamed. People and horses trampled on each other in chaos, and they became a mess.

Dang Jinbi had just returned to the base camp and climbed the tower of the city defense when he saw the Tubo people fleeing in a hurry, leaving behind only a burning corpse and a panicked war horse.

"Grandma's, it's bad for me!" Dang Jinbi spat angrily, "The brothers still have to keep an eye on it, I have to go back to the handsome tent to ask for a reward for the brothers." When the guard changes tomorrow, you can all have a good drink! ”

"Yes!" The soldiers happily agreed to their promise and once again waved the banner and cheered loudly.

On the watchtower, Gong Ren fell into a long speechlessness.

"And now you believe it?" Xue Chuyu smiled beside him and said, "The Tubo general who came with the troops is smart and escapes quickly. If he dares to risk his life and forcibly rob the village......"

"I don't need you to say it, I know." On Gongren took a deep breath and exhaled a long breath, "I haven't forgotten the scene in front of Liangzhou City!" ”
