The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 287 Gap
A cavalry team of thousands of Zhang Bai's cavalry rushed straight forward.

But after all, they are just bandits in the mountains. They don't have the superb riding skills and admiration for bravery like Hu Qi of the Huns, and they don't have the indomitable momentum of the knights of the Han army. They are just bandits after all.

No one wanted to charge forward to do the errand of death, many people unconsciously slowed down their horses.
Facing the cold light, the war horses who were not blindfolded also felt afraid. Although they were still galloping forward under the urging of the knight, the speed of the war horses had already slowed down.

How could these bandit cavalry be able to break through the formation of the Yellow Turban soldiers, which even the Huns could hardly break through?
The impact of the bandits and cavalry was much smaller than that of the Xiongnu Huqi, but the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army still fell many people, and some small gaps were opened between the army formations.

However, under the influence of long-term and rigorous training, these small gaps were quickly filled by soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army.

When the comrade-in-arms beside him falls, someone will take over his position in an instant. Everyone knows what to do in their own army and what duties to perform.

"Stabilize the army!"

The banner of the captain of the military pawn battalion stood in the formation of the yellow turban army pawns. He stood on a mound, observing the situation on the battlefield, and little by little he sent the few reserve troops under his command to the ahead.

Wang Qi pulled the bowstring of the crossbow machine, took the arrow from his waist and placed it on it.

Not far in front of the army formation of the military pawn camp, a bandit dressed as an officer was waving a single sword, yelling at the rest of the knights to come forward. Wang Qi's target was the bandit leader.

The bell behind the front is still holding the tower shield, and the halberd in his right hand is still leaning against the top right of the tower shield, but the tip of the halberd is still stained with blood.

In front of the formation lay the corpses of several bandit knights, but the rest of the bandit knights lingered in front of the formation, not daring to approach.

The impact of the impact cavalry should have been indomitable, breaking through the infantry formation with unparalleled impact.

However, the cavalry formed by these bandits under Zhang Baiqi completely ruined their advantage because of their timidity, and even because the cavalry in the front row slowed down their horses, the cavalry behind the cavalry had no time to react, causing chaos. It is to make the bandit's cavalry worse.

The only thing that was quite effective was the place where Zhang Baiqi's personal cavalry attacked.

Zhang Baiqi's personal cavalry are all selected fierce old bandits. The treatment they enjoy and the things they own are the best in Zhang Baiqi's army. They are also Zhang Baiqi's most staunch supporters. .

Their will to fight is not comparable to those ordinary thieves.

But even so, after they broke through the front line of the Yellow Turban soldiers, they were still stuck in the mud.

The cavalry who have lost their horse speed are as eye-catching as a target placed at a close point in a melee.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army were fighting against the Xiongnu Huqi, and the knights of the Han Army gradually mastered how to fight against the cavalry.

One of the well-trained soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army stabbed the knight on the horse, and two or three behind him stabbed the horse under the crotch.

"Hoo--" "Hoo--"

Accompanied by the rapid whistle, groups of yellow turban soldiers marched slowly, dividing the battlefield and dividing the bandits and cavalry that broke into the formation one by one.

The bandits and cavalry, who had no ability to impact or move, just fell one after another into the formation of the Yellow Turban Army.

Zhang Baiqi's eyes were shattered, and the cavalry he had painstakingly built for many years was rapidly disappearing.

The cavalry of more than [-] Zhang Bai's cavalry was crowded in the valley, but they couldn't advance half a point.

Looking back, Zhang Baiqi saw that the front army had completely collapsed, only a few places of the central army were still barely supporting, and the rest of the army had also completely collapsed.

However, Liu Shi's banner was getting closer and closer, and the speed of advancing was even accelerated by several minutes.

Zhang Baiqi became more and more frightened, he pulled Zhang Qi who was guarding beside him and ordered.

"Zhang Qi, ask Zhang Hua to lead a group of cavalry to intercept Liu Shi. There are still parts in the rear of the Chinese army that have not been defeated. He only needs to delay Liu Shi for another half an hour."

Zhang Baiqi pointed to the reinforcements coming quickly from the north.

"The trilogy left behind in the camp will arrive immediately, attacking from both sides. There are not many yellow turbans blocking the way. Even if they are undefeated, they will still be able to open the gap."

Looking at Zhang Baiqi's blood-red eyes, Zhang Qi hurriedly agreed, and did not dare to delay, so he drove his horse to look for Zhang Hua and give orders.

Zhang Baiqi's face was pale, and he looked at the north fixedly.

There, the tribe he stayed in the camp has assembled and is rushing towards here.

The school lieutenant of the Yellow Turban Army soldier also discovered the reinforcements from the Zhang Bai Cavalry Army who were coming.

"Pity."

The captain of the military pawn sighed slightly. If he had one thousand more people under his command, so that he could face the infantry of Zhang Bai's cavalry in the rear, then the main force of Zhang Bai's cavalry would be completely trapped in the center by him.

It's a pity that facts are facts and cannot be changed. More than a thousand of them passed through that path, dozens of people died on the road, and it took a lot of time.

The total number of soldiers that Yan Zhong brought with him on this trip was only more than [-]. Xu An needed a large number of soldiers to control and stabilize the existing territory, which also restricted the number of soldiers Yan Zhong could lead.

"Blow the assembly whistle, three long and two short, arrange a circular formation, defensive formation!"

The captain of the military camp sighed, and immediately issued a new order.

Facing the enemy, even if the enemy is just bandits, you need to be careful, whether it is morale or the difficulty of defense, you must pay great attention to it.

If they are defeated by two sides, then Zhang Baiqi may even have a chance to turn defeat into victory.

The best way is to become a conservative circular formation, which can also remain invincible.

However, it is necessary to open a gap in the formation of a circle, and it is difficult to maintain the simultaneous invasion from both sides by relying on the number of soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army.

Thanks to the weakness of the bandit cavalry, the Yellow Turban Army's pawn change was not hindered. Zhang Baiqi even found that the Yellow Turban Army's pawns were shrinking, and stopped the actions of his cavalry.

A moment later, the pawns of the Yellow Turban Army had been rearranged into a circular formation, the tower shield was erected, and the halberd was behind, forming a giant hedgehog across the aisle.

As a result, a gap was opened on the west side of the aisle, and Zhang Baiqi, who had already been frightened out of courage, all fled towards that gap.

None of Zhang Bai's cavalry soldiers tried to attack the Yellow Turban Army's formation at all. They all frantically rushed towards the gap that was not blocked by the Yellow Turban Army. They all wanted to survive, and they didn't want to die by the sword.

But although the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army made way for the gap, they didn't want to let go of the soldiers of Zhang Bai's Cavalry Army so easily.

A large number of crossbowmen among the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army have been urgently transferred to the west side of the circle.
