Chapter 0741: Heavy Cavalry Charge
After a night of fierce battle, even if the unequaled cavalry was an elite, under the fierce attack of the mountain barbarians, casualties were inevitable, three people were killed, as many as eleven people were seriously injured, and countless minor injuries were inflicted.
At dawn the next day, the results obtained from the hurried inventory of the corpses made Zhang Yuan change color a little, this night attack on the mountain barbarians killed and injured more than 5,000, plus those people at noon yesterday, there were more than 7,000 people twice, which greatly exceeded Zhang Yuan's expected range.
Zhang Yuan didn't care how many people died in the mountains, Zhang Yuan didn't care about the casualties of the double horseman, even in the elite troops, even if they were dressed too tightly, there were always inevitable accidents on the battlefield, and in the case of not being able to give full play to the ability to charge, in the face of an enemy several times his own, only three people were killed, which was already very good.
What really changed Zhang Yuan's color was that there were so many people who went around the forest in the mountains, and it was conceivable how difficult Hu Chu's situation was in the 50,000 mountains, if it weren't for the fact that he carried enough grain and grass with him all the way during the battle, he was afraid that he had been cut off by the mountain barbarians, Zhang Yuan regretted that he didn't go with the people of the grain transport team at this time.
"No, even if the other party sends someone to go around the back then, now we must completely cut off the remaining enemies first!"
Things went more smoothly than expected, last night the mountain barbarians attacked at night, almost the whole army was dispatched, and then the whole army was wiped out, it can be said that the forest was already under Zhang Yuan's control at this time. Under the leadership of Xishi and their people, the Warriors were divided into ten units and scattered to clear the entire forest, and finally found a temporary place for the other party to stay, and killed more than 100 mountain barbarians. After that, he never encountered a mountain barbarian again.
By the time the Musou rode through the forest, three days had passed.
Leaving the forest, it is a hilly area that is not high. The scattered rocks scattered on the surrounding verdant onions, of different sizes, and strange rocks, make people feel as if they have entered another completely different world.
When you come here, it is not far from the place where Hu Chu is, the hills are not big, but it is the main road leading to the forest. Elsewhere in the forest, there are either dangerous deep mountains, canyons. Either it is a high mountain and a high wall, which is extremely dangerous, or the mountain barbarians dare not approach it at will.
Yes, before the Xihe Army was still in the future. This forest hills. And the place where Hu Chu is stationed now is the place where the outer mountain barbarians defend against the mountain barbarians in the depths of the 50,000 mountains, and the two sides have to fight here every year, and when they can't resist it, they retreat into the storm Qingyuan, and unite with the grass barbarians to resist the invasion of the other party.
Arrived at the hills, the road was good, I don't know how many times the road was gone, and the duplex rode the tired body, but the speed was a little faster. By the afternoon, it was out of the hills.
It was the easiest journey ever to enter the Mt. 50,000. The next road is not so easy, bypassing several peaks, what catches your eye is the canyon that seems to have been cut by some behemoth, bottomless, cracks, hundreds of meters large, small meters, or even a few centimeters, completely like the end of the world, shocking the soul.
Hu Chu was stationed here, or rather, on the outskirts of this canyon, near the halfway point of a stone mountain next to the canyon.
Looking down along the camp, a curved and spreading road descends from the stone mountain, and the rest of the place is full of smooth and flat stones, at a glance it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, that is, the mountain that climbs the mountain and climbs the trees as if walking on the flat ground is naturally formed in the face of itself, and the stone mountain that has been artificially polished is also extraordinarily tricky.
"Bell Bell Bell ..................!!!!"
A burst of golden sounds sounded in the distance, and a rapid horn sounded with it, and Zhang Yuan frowned.
He didn't think that this was Hu Chu greeting him, he was afraid that something had happened!
"Everybody get on their horses and march, keep in formation, and speed up the march!"
This place is not far from Hu Chu, which makes the spirit of the duplex ride lift, especially after going down the mountain, the road is suitable for the war horse to move forward, after getting Zhang Yuan's order, the duplex rider no longer spares the horsepower, jumps on the same tired war horse, and the speed is a few points faster again.
The momentum of more than 1,000 heavy horsemen was even greater than that of 10,000 foot soldiers, and as they got closer and closer to the stone mountain, the mountain barbarians who were attacking on the other side also noticed it.
Soon, a mountain barbarian tribe was attracted to them and quickly rushed towards the heavy cavalry.
Obviously, these mountain barbarians living in the depths of the mountains did not see the invincible strength of the heavy cavalry charge, and thought that they wanted to use their bravery and strength to defeat the other party like the grass barbarians living in the stormy green plain.
"Since you are looking for death, then I will sacrifice you to the flag!" Zhang Yuan sneered and ordered: "Mojiang, lead people to open the way, everyone pay attention, give them a hinterland flower!" ”
The running unduplexed rider was wild and turbulent, and as the Mojiang River tore apart the formation of the mountain barbarians, the unduplexed horses rolled down, and in an instant a flower bloomed, and disappeared with the disappearance of the mountain barbarians.
The appearance of the duplex horseman, as well as the ferocity, surprised the mountain barbarians, in the midst of that huge charge, more than three hundred mountain barbarians did not even stop for a moment, and were trampled by iron hooves. And the surging war horse continued to rush towards the mountain barbarian with an unstoppable momentum.
"The Yuan army is coming, all the heavy cavalry will go down with me!" How could Hu Chu let go of such a good opportunity, and immediately let the heavy cavalry who were recuperated and ready to be in battle ride on their horses, open the gate of the camp, and before the mountain barbarians who rushed to the door came in, the heavy cavalry rushed down the road.
"Follow General Hu Chu to charge!"
The Xihe Army, which was originally passively defensive, no longer hesitated, and when the heavy cavalry rushed out of the city, they also rushed down.
At this time, under the double blow of the heavy cavalry of Hu Chu and Hu Chu, the mountain barbarians had already become a pot of porridge, they were brave, but they were blank to find that they could not find the enemy, when the enemy appeared, facing them was the indestructible, difficult to dodge iron hooves.
In less than a stick of incense, the mountain barbarians irrepressibly collapsed, leaving hundreds of corpses along the way, and finally less than one-fifth of the people retreated into the canyon area.
"Poor Kou Mo Chase!" Zhang Yuan shouted loudly, the tiger roar in his hand pointed at the ground, his whole body was covered in blood, and the blood stained his armor red, and there was still a trace of consternation in his heart.
The seemingly smooth battle can face a two-sided attack, even if the scene is chaotic, the resilience and madness shown by the mountain barbarians, as well as the most decisive retreat, make Zhang Yuan quite jealous. (To be continued......)
