Chapter 839: The Iron Horse of the Chain!
"Iron Horse, Array!"
Murong Ke ordered, and five thousand chain iron horses were lined up in a phalanx, the cold iron armor glowed with cold light, and the neat horse lances pointed forward.
Every three war horses are connected with iron cables, which is comparable to an iron wall.
The most astonishing heavy cavalry in the Eastern Han Dynasty appeared on the battlefield in western Liaoning.
Layers of heavy iron armor are desperate.
No one can break through the phalanx set up by the five thousand chain iron horses head-on.
This is the decisive weapon of the battle of Liaoxi!
"The chain of iron horses was in battle head-on, and Zhu Neng and Li Wenzhong each led a team of cavalry to serve as the left and right wings, and cooperated with the chain of iron horses to break the formation. The enemy in front will certainly not be able to resist the chain of iron horses, and if you strike from both flanks, the enemy will be routed. Chang Yuchun commanded the Hongwu cavalry as the second batch of assault troops, and I and Jin Wushu commanded Tiefutu as the third batch of assault troops. ā
"I don't believe that Chu Zimou can withstand my three rounds of offensive, therefore, the Xia army will definitely be defeated!"
Mingguan asked Murong Ba and Xu Da to resist the left and right flanks of the Xia army respectively, and focus on the frontal battlefield!
It's a battle to the death between the backbone and the backbone!
Mingguan continued the consistent style, sniping at the middle gate, and planned to forcibly break through the middle phalanx of the Xia army with the continuous cavalry impact!
The Eight Banners of the Han Army and the Guanning Iron Cavalry went to consume the Shenji Battalion and the bow and crossbow on the opposite side, also in preparation for three consecutive rounds of offensives!
In "Lord", it is estimated that there are not many lords' legions that can withstand the impact of the three-wheeled cavalry of Mingguan head-on.
Mingguan even, personally armed with a gun and a prancing horse into battle!
That's his style, too!
"It's crazy, but this kind of lord is exactly what I want."
Murong Ke didn't mind gambling with Mingguan.
"Iron Horse Phalanx, attack!"
The sound of the horn echoed in the sky, and five thousand iron horses were like iron walls, advancing towards the defense line of the Xia army!
Because of the iron cables and the ultimate defense, the chain iron horse lacks mobility and is not fast, but it has a stronger impact than the heavy infantry.
Five thousand iron horses raised sand and dust, and their whole bodies were covered in iron armor, and the high-headed horses, even if they were war horses, were like iron cans.
When the Serial Iron Horse Legion advanced, a suffocating sense of oppression followed-in Xia Jun's eyes, one iron wall after another was approaching him!
The ground was shaking, and the air seemed to stop flowing.
The Guanning Iron Cavalry fought with the Xia army, and Li Chengliang looked back at the mounted cavalry from the troubled times of the Two Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, and sweat flowed down the Adam's apple.
To be honest, even he was reluctant to engage Murong Ke's Serial Iron Horse.
Murong Ke is first-class in both command and resourcefulness, and the chain iron horse is a heavy cavalry with extremely high defensive power.
Perhaps a firearm with amazing armor-piercing ability can break through defenses.
However, when the Iron Horse is within range of the Arquebus or Musket, it can be defeated if the Musketeer is not protected by cavalry or heavy infantry.
Chutian forces, the most feared by the Serial Iron Horse Legion is the Shenji Battalion.
Therefore, after the Shenji Battalion was consumed, Murong Ke's chain iron horse dared to take the initiative to attack.
"Guan Ning Iron Cavalry, withdraw to the side!"
Li Chengliang hurriedly transferred troops.
Not long ago, the Guanning Iron Cavalry entered the Women's Legion and the Shenji Battalion and suffered heavy losses.
At this time, since Murong Ke's chain iron horse served as the main force to break the formation, Li Chengliang knew that his Guanning iron horse was just a tool for the Xia army to be consumed before the three rounds of offensive in Mingguan.
In order to win, some elite legions are just chips used to compete in the eyes of the great princes, covering the real hole cards!
Even if it's a redcoat cannon, it's just a pretense!
"The thief will leave, leaving the head!"
Xing Daorong was already crazy, and he stabbed a few Guanning iron horsemen, and when he saw Li Chengliang leading his troops out of the melee, he couldn't help but be anxious.
"Brother-in-law, don't chase anymore!"
Mi Fang, the eldest brother of the Five Tiger Generals of the Northern Army, was already a calm middle-aged military general at this time, keeping a stubble and stopping Xing Daorong, who wanted to pursue Li Chengliang.
Because he has already seen the suffocating Yan Kingdom Serial Iron Horse Legion.
Historically, Murong Ke laid down a chain of iron horse phalanxes to induce Ran Min, the king of martial mourning, to break the formation head-on, and then attacked with cavalry on the left and right wings and defeated Ran Min.
In "Lord", the chain iron horse phalanx is even more oppressive!
"That's heavy cavalry...... This oppressive momentum ......"
Mi Fang has followed Chu Tian for ten years, born and died, although his talent is not very good, he has always been a gold-level general, and his real talent cannot be ranked in the front, and even if he finds an NPC Qianhu in the cowardly Xue army, the panel is higher than Mi Fang's attributes.
But after all, Mi Fang has seen the world and participated in countless wars, from Xuzhou to Eastern Europe, there are Mi Fang's footprints.
Mi Fang had rarely seen such an oppressive cavalry......
The individual combat power of the chain iron horse may not be comparable to that of the cowardly Xue army, the Xuanjia army, and the loyal and filial piety army.
The sense of oppression of the chain iron horse phalanx comes from the whole.
The five thousand chain iron horses as a whole can exert their terrifying ability to break the formation.
In Mi Fang's eyes, the copper walls and iron walls were approaching the Tiger Ben Army.
It's a feeling of despair, as if no legion can stop the wall-to-wall tactics of the Iron Horse phalanx.
"Can we stop this group of cans from advancing?"
The attention of the two generals, Xing Daorong and Wu Anguo, completely shifted from Guanning Iron Horse to Lian Tie Ma.
They involuntarily swallowed their horror.
Xing Daorong and Wu Anguo also felt the oppression of the chain iron horse.
Their breathing was not smooth, and they were even a little uncomfortable, and cold sweat broke out in their palms.
"The lord is watching us from behind, and we can't easily retreat."
Mi Fang wielded his spear and led the Tiger Ben Army, trying to stop the advance of the chain iron horse phalanx!
"Jianyan crossbowman, salvo!"
Liang Hongyu's surviving thousands of Jianyan crossbowmen used the Divine Arm Bow to shoot at the chain iron horse, and the arrow rain covered the iron horse!
The rain of arrows collided with the iron armor, making a scalp-tingling sound of gold and stone crashing.
However, at a long distance, even if it is a divine arm bow, the damage to the chain iron horse phalanx is not enough to block the advance of the chain iron horse phalanx.
The chain iron horse phalanx was just a leisurely stroll at first, and after entering the distance of two hundred meters, it began to trot and accelerate, and the entire iron horse phalanx moved, and the ground shook violently!
The Tiger Army collides with the Serial Iron Horse Phalanx!
Chu Tian did not order the Tiger Ben Army to retreat for the time being, because he also wanted to see the reality of the Iron Horse Phalanx!
The mighty iron horse cavalry rushed in, and the formation was dense, crushing the tiger army!
Every three war horses are a unit, and the iron cables between the war horses are connected, and there are almost no gaps!
The wall charge of the high-level heavy cavalry is almost devastating!
Iron walls collided with Xing Daorong, Wu Anguo, and Mi Fang, and the five tiger generals of the Northern Army had no way to start, and there was a sense of powerlessness.
The relatively loose formation of the Tiger Ben Army was defeated in front of the dense chain iron horse phalanx, and retreated to the rear, while the chain iron horse was still advancing.
On both sides, Li Wenzhong and Zhu Neng, two cavalry generals, led light cavalry to cover Murong Ke's chain of iron horses to break through all the way.
Their purpose is to cut through the backbone of the Xia army and kill the rear army all the way!
"In fact, there are weapons that can destroy the chain iron horse phalanx......"
Chu Tian saw that Murong Ke's chain iron horse phalanx began to fall into battle, and the Tiger Ben army was about to retreat in front of the chain iron horse, and thought of the most suitable weapon to deal with the chain iron horse phalanx.
And that'sā
"Hongyi cannon."
Xia Liang said Chu Tian's heart.
The cold and suffocating sense of oppression of the chain iron horse comes from the defensive power of the heavy horse armor and the dense formation with no return.
The denser the formation, the more lives will be harvested by the solid bullets fired by the Hongyi cannon, which is equivalent to plowing the ground.
Moreover, the Hongyi cannon has the negative effect of destroying the formation.
Therefore, give Chu Tian dozens of Hongyi cannons to bombard Murong Ke's chain iron horse phalanx head-on, and I believe that the chain iron horse phalanx can be destroyed soon.
The Divine Machine Battalion has a similar effect.
"That's why Mingguan used the Eight Banners of the Han Army to exchange losses with the Shenji Battalion, and wanted to consume the few Shenji Battalions that had an armor-breaking effect on the chain iron horses. In this way, he can attack with impunity and open the gap with a chain of iron horses. If only Catherine's Tsarist Guard were present. The Tsarist Guards were also armed with a small number of firearms. ā
Chutian had to admit that firearms had a good armor-piercing and deterrent effect.
He had seen Catherine's Tsarist Guards in Eastern Europe.
The Shenji Battalion is also one of the Ming Dynasty Emperor's capital guards, so the Shenji Battalion is almost the same as the Tsarist Guard.
If Catherine's Tsarist Guard was here, it could somehow assume the function of the Divine Machine Battalion.
Catherine's eyes were shining: "The Tsarist Guard is responsible for guarding the two important cities of St. Petersburg and Moscow, and it is impossible for me to risk them and transfer them to the East. But I brought another legion. ā
