Chapter 788: How Is It Possible (Part II)
From the perspective of Zhang Cang's position, the direction of his own rangers was to adjust the direction they were facing to the Hu cavalry who were charging up, and when the galloping direction of the two sides became aimed at each other, the speed at which the enemy and our cavalry approached each other naturally became faster.
The Hu cavalry first collided with the Han army rangers in twos and threes, and the staggered cavalry, the Hu cavalry waved the bronze sword in his hand, and the Han army ranger also waved the iron sword in his hand.
What happens within a split second distance may be from the collision of the weapon, or it may be the swing of the weapon slashing the flesh, or it is more likely that the weapon is being swung into the air. These are some of several ephemeral images that intertwine and pass out and can happen, but not all.
Cavalry warfare is not like infantry warfare. Foot combat is a soldier who can control his feet very flexibly, and changing direction or even stopping is just a thought. The speed of cavalry combat depends on the direction of the mount in advance, and when the gallop is about to clash, it is useless for the cavalry to judge the correct direction by themselves, and it also depends on whether the enemy on the opposite side has also made evasive moves, only when both sides have made the correct control of the mounts can they have the opportunity to swing their weapons against each other, if one side makes a mistake, then ......
War horses stomp their hooves vigorously, and they may not understand why the people on horseback are fighting each other like this, and they do not understand why humans do not kill for food, and the animal kingdom kills for food, only humans often kill not for food.
The eyes of the war horses that are driven by people to move their hooves are frightened, their bodies are huge and their hearts are powerful, but their courage is surprisingly small, and they can't withstand too stimulating sounds or visual senses, so they can only run in one direction with dazed and fearful with the pull of the reins, and then the fate of a qiē is handed over to the next unknown.
The sound of horses' hooves, the shouts of people, the neighing of war horses. These are never lacking on the battlefield. The cavalry galloping and fighting each other crossed over, and the weapons they swung out brought up the sparks that collided, and they also broke through the flesh and pulled out a stream of scarlet blood, and there was also a mournful cry from the war horses in the wailing of people, which was a collision between the cavalry who did not control the direction of galloping.
What does it look like for a cavalry to collide at high speed? When the horses of the two sides were about to collide, the shadows of the mount's eyes reflecting each other in those huge and fearful eyes were getting bigger and bigger, and the horses subconsciously wanted to dodge, and the horse's neck would twist first to change direction, but the qiē came too suddenly, and the horse's hooves and body collided with each other before they could complete the change of direction. The first thing that a writhing horse has just finished writhing is the dull sound of "thumping" flesh and fractures, and then it comes from the horse's wail when it is in pain.
At this time, the cavalry of two different camps on the back of two colliding war horses, they probably tried to hold on to something to stabilize their bodies, but the huge force would only cause them to be thrown into the air in the dance. The person is still flying in mid-air as if he is paddling his limbs in slow motion, and on the ground is two war horses that collide and knock their heads to the tail of the ground and turn forward, and the picture has become a scene where people and war horses are rolling, but people are somersaulting in mid-air, and horses are rolling on the ground.
The battlefield was full of roars, and not many people would pay attention to how many people had a war horse collision. The two cavalrymen who fell to the ground from mid-air may want to get up when they fall dizzy, or they may be directly killed, but whether they want to get up or are already dead, they will face another cavalry who has collided with them. The strong chest of the horse will once again make the person who may have been up feel the sensation of flying again, and lying on the ground will be trampled by the hooves of the bowl and become a part of the earth.
The man roared and the horse neighed, Zhang Cang turned his head to look at Xiahou Ying beside him: "We must get that kind of war horse!" ”
No one could see more clearly than Zhang Cang and the others, who were standing motionless on the western slope, that the explosive power of the war horses ridden by the Hu people who launched the charge was too strong. The 2,000 Han Army Rangers were only dragged by a small number of Hu cavalry at first, and then they charged in full force in the face of the adjusted formation of the Hu cavalry.
Hu Cai, who was riding across the West Pole Horse, was more than 100 meters away from the Han rangers before he launched the charge, and Hu Cai only took less than eight breaths to complete the approach maneuver. That was still based on the fact that the rangers of the Han army were also galloping. One breath is about a second, and the West Pole horse under Hu's seat can run fifteen or sixteen meters in one second, so how fast should it be!?
At this time, Zhang Cang still didn't know where Hu Qi didn't charge before, but he was using gallops to shoot at each other, so as to ensure that he could be foolproof.
Now, Maudun's prudence has reaped enough fruit.
Riding across the West Pole Horse Charge Hu cavalry each can easily catch up with the Han army rangers, quickly staggered and pass by one after another Hu cavalry swing weapons, the Han army rangers are very likely to just deal with a second attack, even if the nervous reaction can keep up with the body can not be controlled, under the frequent attacks one after another Han army rangers are tired of parrying, because of the excellent armor relationship is cut once or twice may be fine, but the number of times the armor is bound to be damaged, In the end, it was cut down like a dumpling and fell off the horse.
Zhang Cang, who stopped in the west, looked at it and opened his mouth, this qiē was very different from when he listened to the battle report in the rear, the battle report sent back to the rear by the Han army that was out of the fortress in advance was basically a Han army that could be worth at least five Hu people, so is it not a Han enemy with a strong advantage? That advantage is the accumulation of soldiers and equipment, but what is happening now is not like that at all!
"We ...... We encountered the elite of the Hu people? Xiahou Ying said Zhang Cang's heart.
On the other side, the Qin army, which was busy changing horses, was also stunned, but they were not looking at the Han army rangers, it was the two troops of the Qin army that were turned around in a roundabout way and were also approached by the impact of the Hu cavalry's sudden outburst, and the Qin cavalry on the battlefield that galloped quickly and staggered also fell into absolute weakness.
Zhang Han's eyes were still keen, and he soon discovered the extraordinary thing about Hu Ren's mount, which was a horse breed that had never appeared in the land of China or its surroundings, and it seemed that it not only had good endurance but also full of explosive power.
If the battle situation was smooth at the beginning, it became one-sided after the Hu cavalry showed the explosive power of their mounts, whether it was the Han army rangers or the Qin army cavalry, when facing the Hu cavalry, they always fell on the side of the mobility disadvantage, showing a situation where they were quickly caught up even if they could break away for a short time.
Hand over the sword, feeling the force from the hilt of the sword. When the human induction nerve sprayed a stream of liquid, Zhang Lian had already closed his eyes, and the moment he closed his eyes was so that he didn't see Hu Qi, who was the first to fall off the horse, and quickly made up for it, and a weapon that swung over slashed his left chest, and a spark came out of the blade and the metal armor because of the collision, and his body couldn't help but fall backwards due to gravity.
When he was falling backwards, Zhang Lian finally opened his originally closed eyes, and saw a figure of a Hu horse whistling by, followed by a cold neck, and suddenly he felt that he was flying, the whole world was spinning, and the last scene he saw was a chaotic battlefield. and a headless corpse that spewed a fountain of blood and fell on its side......
"The captain is dead—the captain is dead—"
Seeing that some of the Han rangers who had been killed by Zhang Lian shouted loudly, before they had time to panic, other shouts came from their ears.
"Yu Junhou takes over the command ......"
Yu Junhou's full name is Yu Ya, from Pingyang, Xue County, Central Plains, who fled to Nanjun five years ago and joined Lu Zhejun, who had not yet founded the country, and participated in many battles or battle-level battles. After Lu Zhe founded the country, Yu Ya was sent to the Nanling Military Academy for further study because of his military achievements, and after coming out, he entered the new forbidden army, and was transferred to the southern expeditionary army halfway, and only rotated back to the forbidden army last year. The reason for this is that most of the cavalry in the Forbidden Army has been reorganized into cavalry regiments under the Wehrmacht sequence.
At this time, the condition of the afterteeth is not very good, his ribs are constantly bleeding, if it is not blocked by personal soldiers in the front and back, it is estimated that he will become a special target for Hu Qi to besiege because of the special armor style like Zhang Lian.
Despite the fact that the condition is not good. The military system of the Han army stipulated that the death of a superior officer was replaced by a subordinate officer, unless Yu Ya was able to give a valid command order to designate someone, or if a Han Ranger saw Yu Ya die again, otherwise Yu Ya was the new commander of the Han Ranger on the scene.
The battlefield was filled with the sound of horses' hooves. On the battlefield, when you look around, you can see flying dust and constantly staggered figures, and every moment there are soldiers from both sides falling, but it does not prevent Yu Yan from knowing that the situation is not good for his side. After all, even Captain Zhang Lian, who was protected by dozens of people, was killed on the spot.
"Detachment, detachment without rules!" The roar of the afterteeth caused a sharp pain in the ribs, and the corners of the mouth were also astringent with scarlet blood.
What is an irregular detachment? That is, don't care about the formation, even the basic formation, all the Han army rangers who can break away all choose the direction of the breakthrough by themselves, and when the time comes, they can run away as much as they want.
Naturally, there will be people who repeat the instructions given by the shouting Yu Yan, and when they hear the Han rangers who have broken away from the order without rules, they will definitely fall into a temporary confusion in their hearts......
They are the Han Army, and they are the Han Army that was adapted from the Forbidden Army sequence to the National Defense Army. The Han army has always won one victory after another, and it has never been the Han army that oppressed the enemy, how did they become the end of fleeing in all directions that they needed to abandon any honor and military discipline?
From the collision to the order to disengage irregularly, the process lasted less than a quarter of an hour. In these fifteen minutes, every minute and every second, the Han army rangers were cut down and fell off their horses, until Zhang Lian died in battle and Yu Ya took over the command, and the number of 2,000 Han army rangers was sharply reduced to less than 800, and these 800 Han army rangers continued to decrease.
"We ...... Heavy losses! Xiahou Ying didn't dare to say anything, how could Sima of another department not know what it meant to shake the army's heart, so he could only swallow a mouthful of saliva and lower his voice to Zhang Cangjian: "Junhou, job...... Job ......"
Zhang Cang was waving his hand, and he also lowered his voice: "Baby, you bring your own soldiers to contact the robes that come later."
The expression on Xiahou Ying's face immediately froze, although he felt scared in his heart, what he wanted to say was that Jian Yiyi rushed up to the rescue.
Zhang Cang was smiling: "Someone always needs to urge those guys who are slow-moving." You are my deputy, and you have studied in a military academy, so you can have enough descriptive ability and logical explanation of the development of the war situation, don't you go, let people who can't even understand the situation go? ”
Xiahou Ying's face immediately turned pale, and when she wanted to say something, Zhang Cangyan said with a smile on her face, "This is an order!" After speaking, he kept beckoning a few tun chiefs next to him, obviously to make the final arrangements before the war.
Needless to say now, the Han Army Rangers are not a special branch of the army used to charge, but neither the love of the robe nor the military discipline is allowed to watch it like that.
"It's all there!" The voice was very hoarse, Zhang Cang glanced at the back of Xiahou Ying who followed the order and galloped away with his own soldiers, and silently recited in his heart, "What a lucky guy......", stretched out his hand and pulled out the long sword on his waist.
Zhang Cang, who drew his long sword and slashed down hard, did not have any righteousness or impassionedness: "Forward-forward-the Han army is mighty!! ”
In this situation, the blue sky and grassland are fighting, and the front is a robe that wants to try to rescue what he says, and the scene is a subordinate who repeatedly shouts "The Han Army is mighty", Zhang Cang reined in his heart any feelings that should not be there, and took the lead in turning over the horse to accelerate.
The shouting of more than 800 people was not very loud, but Mao Dun and Zhang Han, who were paying attention at any time, saw Zhang Cang leading the army towards the battlefield.
Zhang Han didn't have any special expression on his face after seeing it, but he felt some admiration in his heart, anyone could see that the war had fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage to the Han army rangers who had participated in the war before, and in this case, Zhang Cang still led the army forward, and had to admit that it took a lot of courage.
What was the table when Maudun saw it? He let out a burst of laughter on the spot, "Hahahaha...... and after laughing, he turned his head to look at the representatives of the ethnic groups around him: "There is a Han army of less than 1,000 people there, are you interested in trying it?" ”
So far, the troops that have participated in the war include 2,000 Han army rangers, 2,000 Qin army cavalry, and the other side is 4,000 elites under the command of Mao Dun. The situation on the periphery is that Zhang Cang's 800 rangers galloping towards the local battlefield, the 3,000 Qin cavalry on Zhanghan's side did not move, and there are nearly 2,000 or so cavalry watching on Maodun's side.
A red-haired and blue-eyed representative looked at the situation on the battlefield, and the situation on the battlefield was naturally favorable to their side, and after a burst of "haha" laughter, he didn't know what to say.
Mao Dun also burst out laughing after listening to the translation, those representatives wanted to try the Han army's catties and taels, which was the best, so that he would need to spend more brains to arrange a conspiracy in the future. (To be continued......)
