Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

The 3779th chapter ambush (2)

The battlefield was crowded with people. Guo Shao galloped between the phalanxes on horseback, and his shouts echoed between heaven and earth, just like the vast historical trend and the revelation of destiny. The way soldiers live and die, a key battle is often very far-reaching.

The head-on wind blows his purple cloak, and the tall and vigorous horse under the seat has a beautiful luster in the black hair in the sun. The muscle lines of the horse's shoulders are very beautiful when galloping. In addition to the thick and powerful sound of her stepping on the ground, a sense of power emanates from every pore.

The gap between the phalanxes is not wide, the black horse runs fast, and it can always avoid obstacles dexterously while maintaining its high speed. The tightness of Guo Shao's feet and legs controls it with ease, without the need for a whip at all. This wild horse is originally wild and fierce, but it is very human. After several years with Guo Shao, a subtle tacit understanding and trust have been established.

Even if the situation is not good, Guo Shao hinted to himself that everything is fine, everything he is familiar with, the trust and dependence on the battlefield are unbreakable!

He drew out his long sword, raised it high among the soldiers, and shouted: "We have experienced countless adversities. We trust each other to live and die together. We can overcome difficulties every time. The ancestors in heaven have favored Da Zhou!"

The horses ran across the place, and the soldiers were boiling. Although their faces were dusty, they seemed to be injected with some kind of soul, and human potential could be stimulated in fighting spirit.

The children trust Guo Shao, and Guo Shao trusts them when he sees their morale. He no longer feels at a disadvantage, because this kind of interdependent trust is not something that any army can have. He remembered that Shi Yanchao was at the vanguard. Although he didn't discover the enemy's situation in time, he fully understood the emperor's intentions. Even Shi Yanchao was not greedy for merit and completely obeyed the emperor's will; this kind of trust made thousands of troops as easy as Guo Shao's hands and feet. Countless people have no doubts or hesitation about one person's will!

Guo Shao is eager to win! Because he can't afford to lose, he can't get off the altar of invincibility, he needs to win a battle after entering the Northern Han Dynasty!

Guo Shao was also affected by the atmosphere, his emotions were extremely excited, he raised his arms and shouted, and his short sentences were sonorous and powerful: "The warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty are not afraid of bloodshed, not afraid of powerful enemies, no matter the road is difficult or dangerous, because we are fighting for the luck of China and the smooth journey of future generations."

He didn't say anything about the promotion of the soldiers to make a fortune and make a fortune. Although many people actually do it for this, they don't need to be publicized. They are done in normal times. Everyone knows the rewards and punishments in their hearts, and they will trust what they can get based on experience... In this kind of grand public occasion, some beliefs that usually seem to have little effect will play a big role, because high-pitched emotions will form a large-scale atmosphere in the crowd, and people may not be rational when they are nervous. The performance of the crowd, and individuals will vary greatly!

Guo Shao rushed to the left wing and saw that Zhou Jun's cavalry had been dispatched, so he shouted: "For the people of the world!"

At this time, Dong Zunhui's voice faintly came from the sound of horseshoes: "Fight for the emperor!" Qian Jun was furious, and suddenly there was a loud cry: "Fight for the emperor..."

In the vast world, when the people who vent their emotions are shouting, the dark fronts of the two armies are shortening sharply at a visible speed! The war horses on both sides have entered the high-speed charging stage. This speed is more than one hundred miles per hour, and each flick (second) is ten steps away.

The soldiers in the front row could already see the faces of the enemy soldiers and the red tassels fluttering from their spears.

The emotions full of fear and tension were extremely tense during the speeding, and everyone entered the moment of life and death. The generals in the crowd behind shouted angrily: "Kill the lackeys of Khitan! Kill!"

Arrows flew in the sky. In an instant, "bang bang bang..." heavy bangs resounded all around, and the horses collided directly!

Zhou Jun charged forward regardless of their lives. Although the cavalry of the Northern Han Dynasty wanted to dodge, the horses would be afraid, but they couldn't dodge at high speed, and there were people and horses on the left and right. Under the collision, some people flew directly into the air!

The screams and neighing of the horse resounded throughout the area, the dust billowed on the ground, and the limbs of the still-dead horse struggled painfully in the dust. Between the iron and the blood, sparks flashed, the sound of metal tearing when the iron gun hit the plate armor made people's teeth ache, and the blood splashed like raindrops.

A cavalry soldier from the Zhou Army with blood on his breastplate and many arrows stuck in it, his right arm was also injured, and he even lost his weapon, "Long live!" He yelled, kicking his horse and charging towards an enemy cavalry rushing towards him, his mouth wide open and his face distorted. The Northern Han cavalry on the opposite side also yelled amidst the loud shouts, and hastily raised their cherry guns to aim at the man and stab them. With a loud bang, at the speed of the horse's sprinting, the tip of the spear pierced through the chain mail under the plate armor and penetrated into the man's abdomen! But the shoulders of the horses also slammed into each other violently, and Zhou Jun's wounded soldiers jumped on the Northern Han soldiers by virtue of inertia, and they both fell off their horses screaming.

The vanguard general Zhou Tong (the teacher who taught Guo Shao archery) rushed there in person, and even he himself was shocked by what he saw. Most of the cavalry in the first wave had been lost, and there were many cases where both men and horses died on the battlefield.

Zhou Tong bulged his eyes and held the spear tightly. At this moment, he couldn't think of retreating at all, and he couldn't let down his brother who had already risked his life to charge! The horseshoes were still roaring, Zhou Tong shouted: "To lay down one's life for the country is today!" Then he led his iron-armored soldiers to charge straight away.

At that time, Dong Zunhui, the young general of the left wing, also personally led the cavalry to counterattack the enemy's large cavalry from the inside. Dong Zunhui holds a fine bow decorated with gold and gemstones, and his body is covered with thick and fine iron armor, but no matter how noble he is, at this moment, there are only barbaric and brutal killings, and there are only dust, dry grass and desert everywhere!

The bustling city of Tokyo is already far away, and the silk and bamboo orchestra is no longer there, only the sound of horseshoes and shouts! Dong Zunhui shouted: "The strong live, the weak perish!"

The sweeping cavalry rushed in all directions like torrential mudslides. Two cavalry in opposite directions passed by raglan shoulders. Suddenly, the bowstring crackled like fried peas, and arrows rained down.

Dong Zunhui skillfully picked up his bow and set his arrows. At this moment, the enemy horses are charging obliquely in front, which is a more perfect angle than the front! With the speed of the horses on both sides, the bow and arrow are more lethal, and shooting from the side, random shots can hit people.

Dong Zunhui's body is very upright on the horse, the movement of opening the bow is full of power and grace, the posture of sitting on the horse with the bow fully paused slightly, his figure is like a statue! "Crack!" It was very clear that his target fell, very accurately. The young generals, who came from a family of generals and have been well-trained since they were young, have rules in every movement and are very effective.

Riding and shooting light cavalry is different from the horse army charging into battle. They not only need the courage not to fear death, but also need to be calm and maintain physical strength as a long-distance ranger. Although the movements of Dong Zunhui's personal soldiers are different, the movement process is almost the same. In order to save energy, the excellent cavalry archer did not have any extra fancy movements.

A large number of knights fell from both sides of the crowd, and the cavalry team added many empty horses running with the army. This kind of contest, riding and shooting at close range, both sides have high-speed horses, and the bow and arrow are extremely armor-piercing! The cavalry of the Northern Han army suffered heavy losses. Although the cavalry of the Zhou army were also light cavalry, they were equipped with plate armor, and even the important parts of the horse were protected by leather armor. Generally, the plate armor of the Zhou army could not be pierced, but at this time they would still be pierced by a strong bow.

With the sound of "ding", Dong Zunhui obviously felt a heavy weight on his shoulders, but he didn't even look at it, he drew the arrow he took out calmly and strung the bow string, grasping the current confrontation and shooting continuously.

The left wing had already formed a group, and the Northern Han army originally intended to take advantage of the advantage to spread out to outflank the Zhou army's flank. However, the Zhou army launched a counterattack instead. The cavalry was highly mobile tactically and was always in motion during the battle, so it was not so easy to be outflanked. At this moment, the entire wilderness seemed to be in a maelstrom, and the cavalry from both sides were rushing back and forth. It wasn't a melee, but it was already a criss cross.

... On the front, Shi Yanchao didn't tremble, and didn't even care about tactics at all. He has led the army to directly attack the central infantry phalanx of the Northern Han Army from the front!

Boom boom boom... Right in front of the soldiers of the Northern Han Dynasty, a group of heavy armored cavalry rolled in, even the horses had iron armor! The roar of the iron hooves trampling on the ground, the terrifying aura, and the feelings of the Northern Han infantry holding the spears are indescribable. At this time, people will instinctively question whether the flesh and blood can stand here and stop the torrent of iron cavalry?!

However, those deployed in the front are usually heavily armored elite soldiers, and the infantry phalanx of the Northern Han Army is still standing there ready to meet the enemy. The first row consisted of soldiers holding square shields and spears. The square shields were placed on the ground, and the spears were placed on top of the shields. The second row stretched out their spears from the gap in the middle of the ranks. The three rows are arranged in a staggered manner, making the front of the phalanx look like a huge machine covered with iron thorns.

In the northern region, iron cavalry is everywhere, and cavalry, as the strongest arm, has always been the most valued and guarded object; there are also many infantry in various countries, but infantry guards against cavalry more than the south!

The phalanx was ready, and the torrent in front of them rushed from far to near, from slow to fast, savagely. "Ah... ah..." Before the horsemen of the Zhou army rushed over, the Northern Han army was already screaming. Under the extreme psychological pressure of extreme tension, people can't help roaring.

"Those who take half a step back will be killed!" The general raised his knife, pointed hoarsely at the iron cavalry that was about to charge ahead, and shouted loudly, "If you kill the heavy cavalry, you will be rewarded!"
