By dawn, Jieli had already seen the direction of the Zhao army's main attack, and immediately said to the left and right: "The northeast corner of the Zhao army is weak, and you can take advantage of this to break through." ‘

Jieli gave an order, and nearly 10,000 cavalry left and bravely killed the southeast corner of the Zhao army. The Zhao army is arrayed here, with 3,000 Khitan rangers and 2,000 Mukunbu cavalry.

These 3,000 Khitan rangers and 2,000 Mukunbu cavalry were following the 10,000 cavalry of Yinghefu who were advancing to kill the Turkic army.

In the past, these Turkic cavalry, which galloped bravely on the grassland, were dispersed by the elite Xi cavalry, and they were already crushed. The Khitan rangers and Mukun cavalry, who had mediocre combat effectiveness, chased after the Turkic men and horses of the twenty or thirty with two or three hundred cavalry, which was very lively.

However, Jieli attached the cavalry and killed it like the wind. The Turkic cavalry showed its hideous side, like a vicious steppe hungry wolf pounced on it.

The Khitan cavalry and the Mukunxi cavalry were all cold in their hearts when they saw it, they were okay to fight a tailwind battle, but when they encountered the surprise attack of the Turkic cavalry, they were shocked by the overwhelming momentum of the other party.

This is the momentum of the Turkic dominance of the grassland for a hundred years, although the leaders of the Khitan tribe shouted to the left and right, boosting morale, but after the Turkic cavalry rushed in, they lightly killed the cavalry of the Khitan and Mukun tribes, leaving no armor behind.

Five thousand men and horses, a charge assault attached to the cavalry, were completely defeated. The Khitan and Mukun Xi cavalry were chased and killed by the Turkic cavalry from behind, and they were chopped off their horses like chopping wood.

The encirclement of the Zhao army was broken open by the Turkic cavalry.

The general of the Zhao army, Eto, led 20,000 Xi cavalry and had just arrived. Although this cavalry was not as elite as the Inhephor Division, it was also a long-fought division.

The Xi generals saw the collapse of the Khitan cavalry. I can't help but talk about it.

The Xi cavalry couldn't help but think of the Turkic grassland. When no one is invincible in sweeping through the divisions. At that time, the Murde Xi tribe was not even a slave of the Turks.

Now the 20,000 cavalry of the Xi Department collided head-on with the Turkic cavalry, and today they are training equipment. The Murde Xi Department is not inferior to the Turks in any way, and who is strong and who is weak in a head-on battle!

The cavalry on both sides, seeing each other's military appearance, immediately struggled to whip the horse's buttocks.

But I saw that the cavalry on both sides had laid out a black line 13 to 15 kilometers long, and in the black line thousands of horses were galloping, and each cavalry was holding a bow and a sword on horseback, and his body was running with the horse, one low and one high.

In the east, the sun slowly rose, shining through the side faces of each running horseman. Cast a shadow. Unconsciously, everyone experienced and witnessed this moment.

On one side is the old overlord of the steppe, the Turkic cavalry in the steppe who has not encountered an opponent for decades.

On one side is the cutting-edge on the grassland, the cavalry of the Murde Xi Department who have swept through all departments in recent years.

Who is better?

The cavalry on both sides decided to answer this question with swords and horses.

Two black lines of thirteen to fifteen miles gradually approached within three miles, and behind them were countless warriors who followed, and the hooves of war horses and horses slammed on the snow, and countless white snow and black mud were thrown into the air.

The sound of the trumpets to meet the enemy whined, and the blood of the soldiers boiled at this moment.

When the cavalry came within a mile. The cavalry on both sides raised their bows and arrows and threw arrows at each other's formations.

In the hands of the cavalrymen were all horned bows that were more than three feet long. The cavalry of the Murde Xi tribe is an imitation of the cavalry of the Zhao army, which is very different from the ordinary grassland cavalry.

However, the cavalry on both sides of the Murdexi and the Turkic cavalry used the same riding bows. But a compound bow with extremely strong tension elasticity. The Turks came from the Scythians, who were the best at metallurgy and bows. Historically, the Scythian bow was the prototype of today's Turkic bow.

And the riding bow of the Murod Xi Department has been restructured by the craftsmen of Youjing. With the Han people's exquisite bow-making technology, both in terms of range and strength. Also reached the level with the Turkic bow.

Therefore, there is not much difference between the bows and arrows of the two armies.

Such a three-foot-long angular bow can shoot arrows with extremely strong kinetic energy as long as it is bent at a small angle, and it is convenient for cavalry to shoot continuously!

The cavalry on both sides drew their bows and arrows at the moment the horn sounded, and opened fire on the opposing cavalry.

So from the eyes of the cavalry charging on both sides, they all saw this scene at the same time.

The enemy cavalry approached as fast as they could on the ground, and above them the dense sky was densely packed with arrows from far and near.

The arrows almost covered the sky and fell quickly at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye!

At this moment, countless war horses neighed, and the war horses and cavalry rushing in front were suddenly shot into hedgehogs by countless arrows coming from the front.

The cavalry in the rear was also covered by a rain of arrows, and some of the war horses were still rushing, but the cavalry on horseback had been pierced through the head by an arrow, and then one foot was covered by the stirrups and dragged forward by the war horse.

Although some cavalry avoided arrows, their horses were hit by several arrows, and they fell to the ground, and then in high-speed movement, they slapped their men and horses on the ground, and then they were trampled into meat cakes by the cavalry following behind.

This epic cavalry charge duel that can go down in history has been relayed by later generations of soldiers who participated in this battle, and has been described by several novelists.

An official whose grandfather participated in this war wrote about the battle situation at that time, the soldiers who charged in front of him, the arrows they faced were like locusts, and such a fierce cavalry shot could not dodge at all in terms of the speed of the horse charging with all his strength, and even if he could, he could not dodge the arrows that came from everywhere, so at that time, I could only do two things, one was to protect myself and the war horse with the leather shield in my hand, and the other was to pray for good luck from Tengri in various ways.

The ensuing battle was that after the cavalry of the two armies fired arrows, countless cavalry withered on the way to the charge, and then the men and horses of the front army were quickly reduced by one-third, and the remaining two-thirds of the lucky ones drew their sabers, stared fiercely at the eyes, and roared at the other side.

I'm ashamed that I had lost any reaction at that time, and I didn't hit any Turks, and certainly didn't let any Turks hit me.

This memoir was a big hit because of its successful realism.

However, this scene at this moment was a scene that the cavalry of the Xi Department in the room did not want to recall, and many of the people who survived this battle were silent, and then never mentioned it.

The fact is that the Turkic cavalry suffered fewer casualties than the Zhao army because of their iron armor.

Then the Turkic cavalry was in a frontal charge of the cavalry of both armies, and their ranks were even denser.

When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!

The cavalry faced each other head-on, just like the ancient generals in the past, and the two generals rode forward opposite each other, each wielding their weapons and slashing at each other.

The two horses face each other in the stirrup, until the two horses are separated, even if it is a round.

Therefore, there are often clouds, and the generals on both sides have fought for hundreds of rounds, regardless of victory or defeat!

In history, Wei Chi Jingde and Li Yuanji were challenged, and Wei Chi Jingde took the opponent's horse lance head-on three times in a row.

In the history of the Central Plains, there was a lack of war horses, so there were few battles, and the cavalry faced off head-to-head, but for the grassland, cavalry duels were commonplace.

For the decisive battle of the cavalry, unlike the general's heads-up, personal skills are not important, what matters is the cavalry formation! (To be continued......)
