Chapter 444 Poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people
The general turned his head and looked at Mansur behind him in bewilderment.
Suddenly, there was a scream on both sides of them.
Immediately after that, almost all the Great Eater cavalry within half a mile on both sides urged their horses and rushed towards them desperately, and Mansur, who was dressed in golden armor, changed his face in horror, and hurriedly turned around and retreated under the protection of the guards on both sides, and quickly disappeared into the dense cavalry behind.
The general turned back in astonishment.
A shattered corpse roared in.
Caught off guard, he was suddenly beaten and fell under the horse, he glanced at the familiar face that fell on the dead body beside him, and hurriedly struggled to get up, just at the moment when he got up, a blood-red figure suddenly appeared in his field of vision, and an equally blood-red weapon roared down, he subconsciously raised the scimitar in his hand, but as if a mountain peak had smashed down, the scimitar fell like a straw with the weapon......
"Kill!"
Yang Feng stood next to the rotten meat that was slapped into a lump, holding his mace high and roaring.
The next moment, the mace swept out.
The three big food cavalry in front of him instantly turned into flying flesh and blood, and at the same time, two spears on both sides stabbed at him, and Yang Feng, who had no reaction, didn't even look at it, and then took two steps forward, and the mace swept again, and three big food cavalry flew again. The two big eaters who had just stabbed him looked blankly at the spears in their hands, and suddenly two horses pierced their chests, and the two mounted cavalrymen behind Yang Feng shook their horses at the same time, and the two dead bodies were picked up and fell to the ground, and behind these two people, the five hundred mounted cavalry kept moving forward in formation, and the big food cavalry attacking from the periphery attacked them with bows and arrows in vain, and the dense sharp arrows continued to hit the strong iron armor on the people and horses, and then they were bounced down under the horses' hooves.
And at this moment, the Great Eclipse cavalry suddenly became chaotic, and then countless Persian cavalry crashed into them like fierce beasts, spears pierced, scimitars slashed, and war horses collided, and these Persian cavalry sounded the horn of a decisive battle.
These are the ones who didn't dare to step forward just now.
The frenzy brought by an invincible fierce general on the battlefield of cold weapons can instantly turn ordinary soldiers into warriors, and the fanaticism brought by a god of war will turn people into madmen, looking at Yang Feng, who wielded an eight-hundred-pound mace and kept smashing the most elite Praetorian Guards into rotten meat piece by piece, watching him and five hundred armored cavalry raging like a herd of rhinoceros rushing into a flock of sheep, watching those big food soldiers scream and flee in terror in front of him, the fear of these Persian cavalry disappeared, and then hatred, greed, and adrenaline soared, making them instantly turn into crazy beasts.
And they are not the only such beasts, there are more and more who are pouring into the battlefield behind.
Yang Xianzhong's turkey cavalry arrived immediately.
The five thousand Tushi cavalry who had completed the assembly line rushed to the battlefield without the slightest hesitation, and although they did not have the Ming Light Armor, these Yang Feng's most loyal servants still possessed even more equipment than the Great Food Praetorian Guard.
They are chain plate mail.
That is, the four-mirror armor that later spread to almost all the Musilin countries, including their war horses, was actually equipped with cheap leather horse armor, with iron armor on the chest and horse head, such cavalry was already equivalent to the later Great Eclipse Heavy Cavalry, and five thousand such cavalry were thrown into the battlefield, as if a heavy fist gave the Great Eclipse a hard blow, and the left flank of the Great Eclipse Army, which was facing their attack, quickly began to rout.
But that's not all, because immediately after Abu. The elite of the 10,000 Khorasan legions led by Mu Silin himself also joined the battlefield.
It was another blow.
Although Yang Feng was showing his demonic strength, in fact, except for the Great Food Army in the middle who was driven away by him and the armored cavalry, as well as the Persian soldiers who followed behind, the vast majority of the other Great Food soldiers were not afraid of him, because they couldn't see it at all, since they couldn't see Yang Feng, no matter how unscientific he was, he wouldn't let these Big Food soldiers be afraid, such a battlefield stretched for dozens of miles, and the two wings couldn't see what was happening in the middle.
But Abu. But the wood is what they fear.
Because the whole army of the Great Food Army knows him.
When this originally the strongest general of the Great Food Empire led his subordinates, and it was also the strongest legion of the empire that crashed into the right flank of the Great Food Army, even people immediately began to flee without a fight, and they who had fought side by side with the Khorasan Army many times, of course, knew very well that they could not defeat this army.
In fact, many of the Great Food Eaters are on the run.
Especially the middle lane that Yang Feng attacked had already been driven away at this time.
No one on the cold weapon battlefield can stand him like this, with Yang Feng as the edge, with five hundred armored cavalry as the core, and nearly 10,000 Persian and Sogdian soldiers behind form a terrifying cavalry assault formation, under the opening of Yang Feng's 800-pound mace, he kept moving forward for a moment, picking down all the big food cavalry who dared to stop them and trampling them under the hooves, of course, there were not many big food cavalry who dared to stop them, and the fear brought by Yang Feng's demon-like figure was spreading to both sides like a plague, More and more of the Great Eaters joined the rout.
"Ma, this is not as good as the Eight Banners! Even the golden soldiers can't compare! ”
Yang Feng stopped and said disdainfully.
In front of him was a river more than 100 meters wide, and countless defeated cannibal cavalry were rushing into the river in terror, desperately rushing to the opposite bank on the surface of the river that was still dry.
This is the Tigris.
Behind him, the almost exhausted mounted cavalry took the horses one after another, and then pulled out the milk bumps to replenish their strength, and those war horses also lowered their heads to nibble on the wheat seedlings on the ground, they had already cut through the formation of the Great Cannibals, and behind them more Persian cavalry and Sogdian cavalry were chasing the fleeing Great Cannibal cavalry like a carnival, cutting off their heads, snatching their horses, and even stripping them of valuable things, despite the language barrier, those Sogdian and Persian soldiers were still busy talking and laughing in their respective languages, Men's friendships are easiest to establish at this time.
"How many brothers died?"
Yang Feng looked at the water of the Tigris River and asked one of his subordinates behind him.
"Hui Jieshuai, thirty of them died, and more than fifty brothers were injured, but they were all slightly injured."
The subordinate replied.
"Stay here and rest until I come back!"
Yang Feng nodded and said.
After saying that, he dragged his mace and went straight to the left flank of the Great Food Army, and the subordinate and the other mounted cavalry looked at each other, and one by one dismounted and collapsed to the ground exhausted, even their war horses also collapsed to the ground, and the Persian and Sogdian cavalry who had looted the booty looked at them with awe, looking at these Tang warriors who were like gods.
There is no suspense in this big battle anymore.
When Yang Feng dragged his mace from the rear into the middle of the big food cavalry on the left flank, nearly 20,000 food troops immediately collapsed, those big food cavalry that could barely support under the attack of Yang Xianzhong and his subordinates more than 10,000 Trolls and Sogdian coalition forces, suddenly crashed into such a monster in the back, if it didn't collapse it would be a miracle, all the big food army scattered in horror and desperately fled towards the west bank of the Tigris River, Yang Xianzhong led his subordinates to continue to chase and kill. And Yang Feng turned around and went to answer Abu. Mu Silin, but before he could kill him, the Great Food Army over there had already been defeated, the middle and left flanks had been defeated, of course they could not continue to support, and at this time, the total number of Khorasan Legions that joined the battlefield had exceeded 20,000, and the strength was already similar to that of the Great Food Army, and the follow-up was still coming, and the Great Food Army would be foolish if it didn't run.
However, they could not flee to the west bank of the Tigris, because they were on the east side of the battlefield, so they had to flee south, and the task of pursuing them was left to the Khorasan legions, who arrived later.
Yang Feng and all the troops participating in the war entered the city of Bagubai to rest for one night, and the next day, after the follow-up armies arrived one after another, with an army of about 100,000, sandwiching the Diyala River, they directly set up a flat formation and continued to sweep all the way south, and another 50,000 crossed the Tigris River and went south from the west bank of the Tigris River, and the locust army reached Ctesiphon two days later. However, this Sassanid capital is now the fortress of the Great Food Army, and Mansur, who fled from Bagubai, crossed the Tigris River and continued to flee to Kufa, leaving 20,000 soldiers in this fortress to block Yang Feng's army, so the coalition forces must first capture this fortress before continuing to march towards Kufa.
"I'm so curious, why do you believe in the god of the Great Cannibal?"
Yang Feng looked at the castle of Ctesiphon from afar, and looked at Abu. Mu Silin said: "If those ordinary soldiers don't understand anything, it's understandable, but you have been to the hometown of the big cannibal, you should know everything there!" So you tell me, what is the Hejaz? ”
Abu. Mu Silin was silent.
"Poverty, drought, wilderness, even grass for sheep grazing is scarce, and if you want to survive you can only ride a camel in search of small patches of oases in the desert of the hot dead, and the only thing that can provide food is dates, not even in Khorasan, let alone Babylonia. Why do you believe that there is a sage in their so-called city compared to Ctesiphon, where there is no river with water all year round, no land suitable for farming, and nothing abandoned by the gods?
Could it be that the gods are especially fond of this poor ravine where birds don't?
If the gods are so kind to them, why not give them a small river, even if it's Diyala?
Poor mountains and bad waters can't produce sages.
Poor mountains and bad waters are easy to get out of the people! ”
Yang Feng then said.
"General, let's change the subject!"
Abu. Mu Silin said with a sigh.
"Well, it looks like you don't need this magnificent arch either!"
Yang Feng said.
After saying that, he picked up the mace beside him.
