Chapter 393: The Collision of Steel and Muscle (Part I)

Jieli seemed to have some premonitions at this time, and his somewhat depressed gaze swept towards the rear of the Tang army array opposite. Bayi Chinese Network ≠=ā‰ˆ.ā‰ˆ8=1≠Z≠

At the beginning of the encounter, he thought that he could break through the blockade of the opposing army with the strong combat power of the Turkic cavalry, but he still had nearly 150,000 troops in his hands so far, and it should not be a big problem to break through the blockade of the 30,000 Tang army.

Moreover, the 150,000 people on the Turkic side are all extremely mobile cavalry, as long as they can tear a hole in the Tang Army's formation, and they don't even need to cause many casualties to the Tang Army, they can jump out of this huge encirclement.

At that time, the vast prairie will be for the descendants of the ruthless gods, that is, the sea is wide and the sky is high for the birds to fly, and Jieli can completely rely on his familiarity with the grassland to quietly disappear into the vast wilderness before the arrival of other Tang Dynasty troops.

However, Jieli underestimated the tenacity of the Tang army, and at the same time overestimated the morale of the Turkic cavalry.

If it weren't for several bloody suppressions and the promise of heavy benefits, I am afraid that the army of more than 100,000 people would have already collapsed.

At this time, the battle is fought with will and blood, whoever persists for a long time will be the final winner, and the other side, of course, can only end in a miserable defeat, and the ending will not be much stronger than the wild dogs on the grassland.

A short horn sounded in the Tang army formation opposite, and the Tang cavalry, which had been standing still, finally moved.

Damn, Jieli scolded in his heart, the most worrying thing was born in the end.

Their own side has been tired of fighting for a long time, but the cavalry of the Tang army has been recuperating, and if they are allowed to attack, this is tantamount to the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

If he had known that the Tang Army Formation was so powerful, he should not have had the speculative intention of tearing a hole to break out at the beginning, and directly pressed the whole army up, it is estimated that he would lose some more manpower, and there would never be such an embarrassing scene as now.

However, it is a little too late to regret it now, and the plan to retain strength in order to make a comeback in the future has come to naught under the strong resistance of the Tang army, and the only thing that can be done is to fight to the death.

"Ashina's warriors, it's time to show your bravery, let those damned Tang people see how the Turkic warriors fought!" Determined to fight to the death, Jieli drew his sword and shouted at the elite of Ashinabu behind him.

Ashina stayed behind from the beginning, and was used as the last gamble by Jieli, and never entered the battle, but at this time they had to be sent up, otherwise when the Tang cavalry joined the battle and cut off the back of the attacking troops, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Killing ......" Ashina, who had already been eager to fight, burst out with an earth-shattering roar, and they had already been enthusiastic after watching the battle for a day, and they were extremely looking forward to using the blood of the Tang people to prove that they were the most powerful cavalry in the Turks.

It's just that...... They may be the most powerful cavalry of the Turks, but they are by no means the strongest cavalry in the world, and opposite them, two cavalry phalanxes of five thousand men are ready to go, and the outcome of the collision of steel and muscle is expected.

After half a year of preparation, the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty had begun to be equipped with a large number of plate cuirasses, which may not have reached the defensive strength of the fourteenth-century European iron cans, but it should be enough to deal with the Turks who were still using iron swords.

The Turkic cavalry attacking the center seemed to feel the approach of the decisive battle, and they began to become more ferocious, although they fell under the strong crossbows in batches, they still persevered and rushed with all their might.

"Signal, let the cavalry assault!" Chai Shao, who was stationed in the Chinese army, also felt the pressure, and the one-day battle consumed a lot of physical strength from the Datang infantry soldiers, and if he persisted, it would really be self-defeating.

The sharp roar of "......" overshadowed the battle on the battlefield, reminding the cavalry that the time for assault was coming, and at the same time, it also shocked the minds of the Turks, making them unconsciously think of the 'bloodthirsty fangs' that crisscrossed the steppe.

It seems that only the army, which never leaves a living mouth, will communicate in this way.

"Zuo Wuwei, follow the general, go out into battle!"

"Kill ......"

On the left side of the Tang army array, the five thousand cavalry of the left Wuwei under Qin Qiong's jurisdiction broke out a battle cry, and the war horses under their crotch slowly urged, getting faster and faster, and rushed towards the more than 10,000 Ashina tribe cavalry that came out of the crowd on the opposite side.

At the same time, the 'fangs' led by Xue Rengui were also advancing silently, but except for the rumbling horses' hooves, the whole team did not make any sound at all, which seemed strange and abnormal.

The distance of two or three miles was soon close to the distance of the battle in the case of cavalry hedging, and with the roar of the Turkic commander, countless arrows were fired towards the advancing Tang army, which had the momentum of killing the Tang army at one time.

However, unexpectedly, the Tang cavalry was not affected in the slightest, and in the galloping of war horses, the cavalry team of two 5,000 people was almost not affected in any way, just like shuttling through the rain of arrows, except for a few unlucky guys with one or two arrows stuck in their arms or thighs, and screaming in pain, there was not even a single one who fell off the horse.

Damn, the Turkic general was in a daze at that time, and even the command to prepare to meet the enemy was blocked in his throat, and he reached out to rub his eyes, but the knife in his hand almost stabbed him to death. This is too mysterious, a wave of arrow rain, not even a single one fell off the horse, and there are few screams, is it that all the people who rush up are iron men?

However, time waits for no one, and the degree of cavalry hedging makes people have no time to react at all, and at the moment when the Turkic generals are stunned, the two sides are already close to the distance within reach.

"Killing ......" Qin Qiong Qin Shubao, who has experienced a hundred battles, has so much experience in facing the enemy, seeing that the enemy will be stunned, he has a rare opportunity, and his legs are clamped between the horse's belly, and the BMW under his crotch is 'thundering' and his mind is connected, and at the same time he slammed forward.

Fast, so fast that people can't react, almost between lightning and fire, Qin Qiong has already fiercely penetrated the chest of the enemy general with the furnace gun in his hand, and he fought with one arm, taking advantage of the opportunity of the two horses to stirrup, he actually picked the other party up from the horse, hung it on the tip of the spear, and suddenly threw it at the Turkic cavalry.

This is simply too ferocious, far away, Xue Rengui, who is on the right side, saw the corners of his eyes jumping, and his heart was really old and spicy, and he actually played a life-fighting style, no wonder it was said that Qin Qiong went into battle to kill the enemy and was brave, watching the huge axe cut down on his head without dodging, dodging or defending, there are indeed few people who can do it.

However, now is not the time to ponder this matter, at the same time that Qin Qiong's Zuo Wuwei and the Turkic cavalry collided, the 'fangs' brought by Xue Rengui were also rapidly approaching the enemy army, and it was seen that they had reached a distance where they could meet in short arms.
