Chapter 891: Dragoon

(Thanks to ycxukpk for your support, thank you!) )

The tribal warriors who had been attacking from the east as if they had been under intense bombardment for half a lifetime were preparing to regroup under the shouts of the wolf of Murowei, China, when the gate of the eastern camp suddenly opened.

The wolf of the Murwei Aka had just been blown up in a mess, and when he saw that the camp gate suddenly opened automatically, his eyes were immediately blood-red, and he screamed that he was about to advance instead of retreating, wanting to rush into the camp in one fell swoop.

As a result, amid the rumbling of iron hooves, a black flag appeared.

Li Cunxiao took the lead and led the heavy cavalry of the Black Flag Army to roll out of the steel torrent.

In the cavalry establishment of the Qin army, the Black Flag Army has always maintained 2,000 heavy cavalry, although the number is not large, and the number of sorties is also small, but every time it is dispatched, it has used its terrible impact and destructive power to deter the enemy army and deter the battlefield. Their appearance can often play a decisive role, entering the battlefield at the most critical time, obtaining the most lethal threat, and defeating opponents who are five or ten times their own defeat.

After the establishment of the heavy cavalry of the Black Flag Army, Daibei defeated the Shatuo people, Liaodong defeated the Goguryeo people, Liaoxi defeated the Khitans, and Hebei defeated the Heshuo three feudatories. The mighty enemy, in front of them, was also crushed into dust.

The Qin army's Black Flag Army dispatched very little, and in this Daibei battlefield, the Qin Army's Black Flag heavy cavalry did not appear once, which made the tribal coalition army that came to the grassland forget that the Qin army not only had a strong artillery and armor, but also had an extremely terrifying heavy cavalry. A cavalry arm that has long since died out in this era.

Two thousand heavily armed cavalry were thrown into the east and west wings by Li Jing. In the middle, on the contrary, were ordinary cuirassiers.

East. A thousand heavily armored cavalry were all dressed in black steel armor. The cavalry was all covered with knightly armor, and the horses were also covered with thick iron armor. Under the black flag, the knight was dressed in black armor as black as ink, but on his head was a barrel-shaped iron bucket helmet, and even men and horses were completely shrouded in thick iron armor.

With a cloud of spears in their hands, they quickly completed their preparations for the attack in front of the camp gate, forming a steel phalanx.

The sky was filled with smoke that had not yet dissipated. The sun was obscured, and a few rays of sunlight reflected through the smoke of gunpowder, reflecting the heavy cavalry of the Black Flag Army in front of the camp, reflecting a delicate light. The breeze blew, gently bringing up the long black fur cloaks of the cavalrymen.

Li Cunxiao took the lead and rushed to the front of the array, his eyes were full of high battle intent, looking at the Hu warriors surging in front of him like a hunter staring at his prey. He raised his iron lance high, and suddenly, suddenly. The cavalry behind him let out a deafening roar: "Kill! ”

Thinking of King Qin's words to him before the battle, he couldn't help but be even more enthusiastic.

"Huchen. Defeat them, upgrade the heavy cavalry to the dragoon, expand to 5,000 cavalry, and form a black flag legion of ten armies with the Black Flag Army and the Dragoon Army as the core, with you as the commander. ”

The commander of the legion, the ten armies, Li Cunxiao was excited when he thought of this. Liu Xun has already become the commander of the Wansheng Legion, and he can't be too far behind. Even if this Black Flag Legion may only be a temporary formation, being able to be the commander of the legion is enough to make him proud.

The torrent of iron riders charged quickly, and the horses' hooves roared like thunder. Although there were ten times as many enemy horsemen in front of them, in Li Cunxiao's eyes, it was just a group of terrified dogs that had been shelled. Although they seemed to be so numerous, and in the distant plains, there were tens of thousands of undispatched horsemen, many of whom could not even see the end, but he was not afraid, and the heavy cavalry was fearless.

The wolf of Murowei, China soon felt the terrifying momentum that was coming, the heavy cavalry was originally an old army that had been formed for many years, they had experienced a hundred battles, and they had not been split and reorganized in previous reorganizations, and their strength had been maintained. Each member of the team is a veteran of the war, and now, once again, they are prancing on horseback, bringing with them the momentum of being unstoppable, clothed in a cloak that prevents me from dying. This is a terrible army, a mighty army, a strong and death-defying army with a military spirit, which can be called a cavalryman's nightmare. Between the ranks of the heavy cavalry, in the midst of the roar, the terrifying fighting spirit like a wolf and a tiger made the anger and fighting spirit that had just risen in Chi quickly melt away, and fear began to rise from the bottom of his heart.

The ground seemed to be constantly shaking by the steel hills, making it unsteady to stand. The horses' hooves rumbled in their ears, and the neat ranks of hoplites were like heavy mountains, towering and tall, but they were pressing down on them rapidly, and the tribal warriors in front of them, who had managed to survive under the artillery fire, barely had time to shout out in exclamation, and they had already been knocked away by the huge impact.

Second row, third row

After the artillery fire was pllowed, the tribal cavalry, which could not even save the array, was instantly crushed by this unstoppable torrent of steel, and was as vulnerable as a chicken and a dog.

"Kill!"

The heavy cavalry of the Black Flag Army let out an earth-shattering roar under the iron barrel helmet, drowning out the screams of the tribal warriors falling from their horses and the sound of weapons breaking. Under their terrifying attack, the few thousand people who had just gathered together could not resist even a moment, and they were instantly overwhelmed by this torrent of black iron armor.

With blood-red eyes and clenched teeth, the wolf of Murowei saw that something was wrong. The Qin people's artillery bombardment was extremely fierce, directly destroying their military morale and array, annihilating at least one percent of their soldiers and horses at once, and seriously wounding about two percent of their soldiers. He could have borne this casualty, after all, the troops were scattered, and they could still be gathered, and with his experience, it was impossible for the Qin people to maintain such fierce artillery fire all the time. The more fierce the Qin cannons were, the more it proved that their camp defense was empty at this time. As long as they work harder and rush through, the victory will be theirs in the end.

But he didn't expect that the Qin people's artillery and cavalry coordinated the operation so exquisitely, the artillery group fire coverage had just stopped, and the cavalry was ready to attack, and as the cavalry dispatched, the artillery fire began to extend the fire, opening the way for the cavalry, so that they could not assemble in a formation to meet the Qin cavalry. As soon as the cannon stopped, the cavalry of the Qin army had already rushed to the front.

China shouted and led the men and horses around him to rush forward. He was going to stop the rush of the hoplites at once. At the moment, the remaining cavalry on the battlefield was crushed. Let the hoplites rush in. They will no longer be able to regroup. The hoplites relied on momentum, and as long as they could contain their speed, they could in turn eat the hoplites that were far less numerous than them. What's more, there are still 40,000 people behind him who have not been dispatched, and he still has strong reinforcements.

Thousands of horsemen followed the scattered pounce, and the two sides collided head-on, like two huge waves lapping, stirring up countless splashing waves. The cavalry on both sides tore apart and the ironclad clash sparkled.

The tribal warriors were very fierce, and if they had replaced the ordinary soldiers and horses of the Central Plains Domain, they would have been directly dispersed in the fierce artillery bombardment just now. But they were still able to muster up their courage again in the roar of China, and rushed straight to them. It's just a momentary ferocity, but it can't help them break the enemy.

The swords in their hands slashed at the knight armor of the Qin people when they faced each other head-on, and a burst of sparks splashed, but they couldn't penetrate the specially made heavy knight's whole body armor, no matter if they cut it on the head. Poke in the chest, or stab in the horse. It doesn't help at all.

On the contrary, the heavy cavalry in the charge, the cavalry bayonet spear in his hand is like a battering ram, and when the two horses collide, the huge momentum directly increases the power of the bayonet gun countless times. There is almost no need for the cavalry to exert force, as long as the gun is held steadily, aimed at the target and collided, the high-speed force will directly let the cavalry easily pierce the tribal warriors, even if they put on iron armor, they will not be able to stop the prismatic spear head with the armor-piercing effect.

Each spear can pierce through a tribal warrior, and some even directly pierce two in a row, stringing them together. Some of the cavalry spears broke after piercing through the enemy due to the force of the impact, but this did not slow down the heavy cavalry by half a minute. They didn't even need a spear, and directly relied on the high-speed impact force to knock down the Hu cavalry in front of them to the people and horses.

In less than a moment, the two armies that collided head-on were already visible, and the tribal warriors were knocked down in large swaths, and the men and horses were overturned by the storm and shattered by the waves like boats under the storm.

The Hu cavalry that was more spread out in the back was even more unable to stop the heavy cavalry, they tried to escape, but they couldn't outrun the heavy cavalry that was as fast as thunder, they wanted to fight hard, wanted to pull two cushions on their backs before dying, but they were also beaten back by the iron wall armor, knocked away, trampled into mud.

Whether it was a warrior or a war horse, the tribal cavalry was crushed to the ground under the impact of this incomparably fast and incomparably ironclad torrent, and the momentum seemed to be a snow-capped mountain collapse, and those tribal soldiers were just a group of small wolves, washed away by the snow waves, and disappeared without a trace.

Finally, the ferocity of that minute gradually cooled, reason triumphed over bruteness, and the tribal soldiers finally came to their senses.

These bucket soldiers are monsters that can't be defeated!

A howl of fear and despair rang out, and then panic spread, and the soldiers and horses of the wolf of Murowei China were immediately crushed and scattered, hoping to avoid the torrent of death behind them.

At this time, Yelu Shilu, the commander of the Hu people, who had just recovered from the devastating Qin army cluster shelling, discovered that the situation was not good.

After the artillery fire was covered and the heavy cavalry charged and trampled, the 30,000 tribal warriors he sent out had been almost completely routed. The morale of the army was gone, the defeated troops were fleeing backwards, and the two heavy cavalry on the east and west flanks were constantly outflanking the center of the south.

Outflanked on both flanks, the Chinese army breaks through!

It was almost the same strategy he had previously arranged to deal with the Qin army, but the difference was that the Qin people arranged two heavy cavalry on the two wings, first breaking the two wings, and then moving closer to the middle. Needless to say, after the three thousand cavalry approached, they would drive the defeated army from the front and fight all the way into his rear camp.

He remembered that such a tactical Han had an image name, the inverted bead curtain!

Frightened screams continued to sound ahead, "The ironclad cavalry is coming, the ironclad cavalry that can't be killed is coming!" ”

Yelu Shilu set his sights on Yelu Gu, and it was no longer a matter of failure in the attack. Now they are faced with the possibility that not only the 30,000 horses that attack may eventually be trampled down, but also that even their 40,000 horses may be swept upside down. In such a general battle, although it is said that up to now, not many soldiers and horses have been killed in battle, but if they are attacked by a rout, it may cause the collapse of the whole army.

It's not a big possibility, but no one dares to take the risk.

Deputy Marshal Yelu Ganggu only turned pale, he never thought that the Qin army, which only had 20,000 people, would actually give them a blow to the head as soon as they came up. The terrifying bombardment still rings in his head, it was a devastating attack. He was equally afraid, but he had no choice.

He nodded to Yelu Shilu, and immediately turned around and ordered: "The Khitan warriors are ready to fight!" ”

Those tribal soldiers have been frightened, and at this time, only the Khitan warriors with the strongest fighting spirit can turn the tide.

The Tiger of Murowei, the Wolf of Murowei, and the Eagle of Murowei, the three-way soldiers and horses led by these three powerful warriors, are no longer able to return to the sky. They also wanted to gather their troops and horses and turn back to fight the cavalry of the Qin army, but the leaders of those small tribes had directly given up the heart of fighting and began to flee wildly. Their orders were passed down, but they only added to the confusion in vain.

The east and west flanks erupted again with a shout that added to the fear, and the hoplites had broken through from both flanks, outflanking and approaching the center! (To be continued......)
