Chapter 0857: Scattering the Yuan Army (II)
Wuliang Hetai is really nowhere to go, everything comes too fast, changes too fast, he doesn't give him time to think about the reaction at all, and when he realizes it, there is still a deviation, Zhang Yuan was completely prepared at the beginning, how could he be able to reverse it when he saw the move?
Therefore, Wuliang Hetai prepared for the worst, used the last of his strength, and ordered his bravest generals to lead a thousand men to attack the formation of Xihe infantry from the flank.
And Wuliang Hetai led the remaining 4,000 elite cavalry to attack the direction of the Xihe foot soldiers.
Swap a thousand elites for a short stop at the Xihe foot soldiers, in normal times, Wuliang Hetai would definitely not be willing, the real Mongol warriors were already very insufficient compared to the huge empire they occupied, and the elites were even more scarce and pitiful, if there was any other way, he would rather exchange ten or even twenty times the number of ordinary soldiers.
The resoluteness of the Uliang Hetai achieved the goal he wanted.
The elite cavalry of the 1,000 Yuan army plunged headlong into the boundless Xihe foot soldiers, under the impact of the elite of the Yuan army, the desperate resistance of the Xihe foot soldiers, and the problem of congenital deficiency of foot soldiers was fully demonstrated under the terrifying impact of the cavalry.
In contrast to the heavy cavalry, the light cavalry collided with an egg against a stone. It can deal with foot soldiers, and the light cavalry gathered together, relying on their iron hooves, can easily crush the thin foot soldiers.
The flanks of the Xihe infantry were in chaos, and in the shouts of the low-level generals, the stubborn resistance of the Xihe soldiers formed a thick human wall.
"Shoot ............!!"
Wuliang Hetai naturally would not let go of such an opportunity, and the elite of the 1,000-yuan army that was distributed was basically a discarded chess piece. In order to make them useful, take advantage of this time to kill more Xihe soldiers, and at the same time delay the speed of Xihe soldiers.
"Block ............!"
Xihe's good discipline also came out at this time. Although the flank was torn open by the Yuan army, under the restraint of the low-level generals, the Xihe soldiers did not run around like headless flies, and most of the soldiers still faced Wuliang Hetai and raised the shields in their hands.
"I'll see how long you can stop!"
Wuliang Hetai became more and more jealous of Zhang Yuan in his heart, and he was not chaotic in the face of danger. is not afraid of battle, and in the face of the cavalry who has occupied one of his own ends, he still dares to fight head-on. Such an elite is rare even among the Yuan army, and all of them are treasured.
..................Woooo
The elite of the Yuan army are all carefully selected warriors, all of whom are fierce men who grew up on horseback, and they are all good at riding and shooting. Run. There was no need for Wuliang Hetai to order, the arrows were in waves, like rain, endlessly.
The Xihe infantry was a well-disciplined and long-standing passive situation, and they were stagnant due to flank attacks, so many people faced the arrows that invaded like rain, and eventually there were casualties.
"Is it true that my 30,000 foot soldiers are a flock of lambs to the slaughter?"
Zhang Yuan's face was cold. The 30,000 Xihe infantry soldiers were pinned down by the elite of the 5,000 Yuan Army, and the vigorous advance came to a standstill. It's not a good personal mood.
"Pass the order, the whole army will take the commander as the team, charge in a straggler line, the target, the Yuan army camp!"
As Zhang Yuan's order was passed to the entire battlefield by dozens of people, Zhang Yuan secretly looked at the forefront of the battlefield: "I will tell you with the facts, even if it is a foot soldier, if there are more people, you can crush the cavalry!" ”
After receiving Zhang Yuan's order, the Xihe foot soldiers, who were originally as close as a whole, immediately spread their legs and rushed up, and in the shouts of the captain, the stagnant Xihe foot soldiers held their shields on their heads, as if they were running a marathon, completely innumerable The elite of the Yuan army in front of them.
No, it cannot be said to ignore, but the cavalry of the Yuan army is just incidental.
"Withdraw ......!!"
When Wuliang Hetai saw that the Xihe army was slaughtering, he suddenly had no idea of entanglement, and directly withdrew to the side with four thousand fine horsemen, wanting to use the speed of the cavalry to release the foot kite.
In the middle of the sound, Wuliang Hetai found that something was wrong, and the Xihe foot soldiers didn't pay attention to them at all, like a rushing torrent pointing directly at the camp of the Yuan army, his face changed suddenly: "Okay, it's really a good plan, the snake hits seven inches, so you think the camp is my seven inches?" ’
Although he didn't want to admit it, Wuliang Hetai knew very well in his heart that the Yuan army camp was really where his seven inches were. He had to buy the camp enough time to move the food and grass, because it was crucial whether they would succeed in breaking out in the future.
"Shoot with the current!"
Wuliang Hetai had a gloomy face, and he didn't care about the inseparability of the battle, and the other two armies, which had gradually lost the wind, led the elite cavalry of the 4,000 Yuan Army to shoot along the flank of the Xihe infantry soldiers, in order to disrupt the advance of the Xihe Army in this way.
As one of the famous Xihe infantry soldiers exposed their flanks to them and was knocked to the ground by the Yuan army's elite cavalry, the other Xihe infantry soldiers remained unmoved, and continued to charge the Xihe camp with their heads held high.
Seeing that the camp that stretched for more than ten kilometers was getting closer and closer, Wuliang Hetai was very anxious, he had the heart to block in front of the Xihe Army, and launched a fierce charge, disrupting the momentum of the Xihe Army, but the encounter of the 1,000 Yuan Army was vivid.
Just now, when he dodged the charge of the Xihe Army, the elite of the 1,000 Yuan Army who originally tore the formation of the Xihe Army was directly torn apart in the face of the charge of tens of thousands of Xihe Army.
In the end, I don't know how many will be left who will survive.
The mantis arm is used as a car, this is the best annotation of the thousand-yuan army.
This was also the first time that Wuliang Hetai realized that once the number of foot soldiers reached a certain number, once everyone worked hard in one direction, the wave formed was not much smaller than the cavalry charge.
Wuliang Hetai had the intention to intercept it, but reason made him dispel this idea, although it looked wonderful to charge the Xihe foot soldiers who were scattered at this time, and you can imagine how many beheadings they would behead, but in the end, they rushed in and came out alive, I am afraid that there will not be many people. It is completely a thousand kills and eight hundred self-losses.
Wuliang Hetai did not hesitate, and he could not hesitate, the sooner he decided, even if he made the stupidest decision, it was better than looking dry.
"Pass the order, the whole army retreats!"
In the end, Wuliang Hetai still chose to preserve his strength, he didn't want to toss his troops to this anymore, now there are more troops, and when he breaks through, he will succeed more, there will be less grain and grass, and when the time comes, just plunder some, for a little grain and grass, and then lose the already small number of troops, it's not worth it.
Seeing that all the Yuan troops on the entire battlefield began to collapse on all sides, Zhang Yuan not only did not feel happy, but regretted it a little, defeated but not injured, injured but not dead, seemed to win, and seemed to force the other party to have no way out, but in fact, the other party was still alive, and there was still an elite army of up to 40,000 in his hands.
If Zhang Xiu does not die, no matter how big the price is, Zhang Yuan will leave this terrible and difficult enemy behind. (To be continued......)
