Chapter 355 Wolf Run
Zhao Guang, who has been taught by ear and taught by example since he was a child, knows all kinds of tactics in cavalry warfare by heart.

For example, if you encounter an ambush while marching, how to survive by docking your tail, or turn your back on the enemy, and create opportunities to destroy the ambush soldiers.

This is why he and Zhang Bao set up ambush separately.

To judge others by himself, if he is Fei Yao, when Zhang Bao cited Shao Dangqiang to charge suddenly, he would send out some cavalry to restrain him, and lead most of the cavalry back to fight back.That's why when Fei Yao had just completed the detour and was about to speed up the charge, he led the cavalry out - even Wei Qi's detour distance was calculated to be almost the same.

It's just that, unlike Zhang Bao's pioneers, he has been commanding the formation of cavalry under the banner of Jingujing with a command flag.

If you look down from the sky, you can see that under a rush of drums to urge the battle, the morale of the Han army cavalry divided into two teams on the left and right, came in a surprise attack, and cut Fei Yao's troops into three with lightning speed. section, making it impossible to look at each other from head to tail.

And the transformation speed is extremely fast!

As soon as he came out through the formation and just turned around when the horse turned around, the horn was blown.

But seeing the front row of the left and right teams of Han cavalry split apart suddenly, with hundreds of cavalry as a unit, under the guidance of the small drums of their respective dubos, they turned into a huge comb and swept towards the formation of Wei cavalry again.

The direction of attack is the central part of Weiqi, which is cut off from the front and back.

Because they are in the middle of the formation, at this time they all rein in their horses and look at each other in astonishment-when the Han cavalry passed through the formation just now, the front and rear Wei cavalry were able to advance or retreat to avoid the attack, but they were caught in the middle. The enemy cannot advance or retreat, so they can only instinctively gather in the middle to protect themselves.

At this time, their soldiers will not be recorded, and their horses will not move forward, and they will be easily defeated!

The cavalry pawns who could not rely on horsepower to fight were no different from a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered in the face of another attack from the Han cavalry.

As it turned out.

When the Han cavalry who turned into a huge comb came again, tore and shredded their array again, and divided it into countless small pieces, their morale collapsed.

Likewise, everyone scattered like headless chickens, driving their horses to avoid being slaughtered by Han Qi's swords and spears.

And most of them instinctively chose to go to the front and rear ends of Wei Qi when they fled, trying to rely on the protection of Pao Ze to escape.

This move has also become a trend of defeating the army in disguise.

In other words, the tactical purpose of the Han cavalry to attack them has been achieved!

Because at this time, the Wei cavalry at the front and rear ends had already completed the formation, and they were letting the horses start trotting and accelerating to try to disperse the Han army, but they happened to be blocked by them.The Wei cavalry pawns at the front and rear who were unable to charge the Han army could only pull the reins slightly to slow down at this time, and did not dare to advance because they were worried about accidental injury.

At this time, it was only a quarter of an hour before Han Qi attacked.

When Wei Qi was ambushed by Zhang Bao earlier, he still had the strength to divide his troops and fight back!But in front of Zhao Guang, even if they spare time to make a detour, they can't fight anymore!

It can be seen from this that Zhao Guang's dexterity in cavalry battles can be hailed as the rate of wolf running!
Fei Yao, who led the front cavalry back, saw this scene so clearly that he almost gritted his teeth.At this moment, he was in no mood to think about why the Han army still had a cavalry ambush here.

"Bang the drum, speed up! Charge from the side!!"

He roared loudly, driving the horse to speed up, "If there is a gap in front, no matter the enemy or us, kill them together!"

This scheduling is right.If you take pity on the lives of the rout soldiers who are rushing back into your own formation, then all the Wei cavalry will become rout soldiers, leaving no room for reversal in victory or defeat.

However, how can the war horse gallop in a hurry?

And at this time, the Han cavalry merged into two teams again, each driving the rout soldiers to cover up the kill.

This time, Zhao Guangshen took the lead.

But his customary Zhang Wu double-edged spear was still hanging on the side of the saddle, leading the cavalry to hang behind the defeated soldiers without any haste, and the two-stone strong bow in his hand kept shooting arrows.

"Boom!"

A strong string exploded.

I saw a little Han Xing rushing away with a broken sound in the air, shooting a broken soldier in front of him off his horse.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Boom!"

No false example.

It seems that killing is for fun, but if you look carefully, you will find that the unlucky people who were shot have obviously different armor and clothing from others, or the color of the feathers on the top of the helmet is different, or there are small rods or horns on the waist.

At least it is Dub level.

This made the defeated soldiers even more anxious.

The already fragmented formations were unbearable to fight any more; now the trumpet soldiers who were directly under Dub or the messengers were shot one after another, leaving them to flee blindly.

Fei Yao, who was rushing forward, had already sent the drums to pass the message, and they didn't avoid it because they lacked coordination.

At this point, Wei Qi's cannibalism began.

However, a rout is a rout after all.

Under the strict military law of the Wei State, soldiers have long been accustomed to ordering to do what they want, and they are not hesitant to wield their blades at the robes.And those rout soldiers never thought that if they were not prepared, they would kill both the enemy and themselves.

Therefore, as soon as the two sides came into contact suddenly, the rout soldiers who were rolled back were washed away again.

Those who did not disperse all died in astonishment.

Zhao Guang didn't expect the defeated troops to charge into the formation and make meritorious deeds. He only needed them to hinder the speed and vigor of the Wei cavalry a little, and it was enough to create an opportunity for the Han cavalry who came from the tail.

"Nothing before!"

"kill!"

Both armies staggered past with roars.

The swords and spears of the soldiers on both sides waved again, offering nutrients to the barren soil in Hexi.

The difference is that the Han army's momentum is like a rainbow.After breaking through the formation, there was another burst of "big man's mighty" excitement, and he turned his horse again to accelerate and prepare to charge.

And Wei Qi was somewhat demoralized.

They were divided into three sections, and there were no more than [-] people following Fei Yao's queue.

After being ambushed twice and then slashing a knife at Paoze, they charged and fought against a larger number of Han cavalry with a more formidable formation. Anyone would feel frustrated.

And they all knew that Wei Qi, who was isolated on the other side, should be defeated if nothing else happened.

Because the general rate of the back-end array is only Sima, Du Bo and his like.

Without Fei Yao's official position and prestige, even if he had an insight into the danger of a rout, he would not dare to order a charge to meet the enemy regardless of whether he is the enemy or himself.

Not to mention, whether the soldiers will follow the order is still in doubt.

Fei Yao also understood this in his heart.

He knew that the situation of the battle was irreversible, and it was a foregone conclusion that the Wei cavalry suffered a disastrous defeat and suffered heavy casualties.

But he still had to charge again.

It's not for the resentment in my heart and the shame of being ambushed, or for the fact that I want to fight with the Han army, but for more cavalry to escape and go home.Charge once more, and then you can rush to rescue Qianqi trapped by the Qiang tribe, and then lead them all the way east, back to Mingsha Mountain.

Although the battle over there must have resulted in heavy casualties, but some of them could be rescued more or less.

Moreover, he procrastinated here for a moment, which was also to buy time for Xu Gai's troops to retreat.

Deputy Xu Gai led two thousand cavalry, even if they lost to Jiang Wei's Qiang cavalry, the whole army would not be wiped out.But if he didn't know the military situation here and kept fighting with Jiang Wei's troops, he would face the danger of being surrounded by Han cavalry here.

Ugh.
After just one round of charge, there are less than 500 people still on horseback.

And this is the result of some defeated soldiers returning to the team again.

That's it!

Even if you lose everything, you will give up less and save more!

Fei Yao, who turned the horse's head to line up again, had a flash of determination in his eyes.

And tore away Bu Qu Du who had been guarding in front of him, raised the ring-shoulder high with his right hand, kicked the horse's belly fiercely and was the first to rush out, shouting loudly, "Follow me!"

I want to use my status as the general to inspire the courage of the soldiers to fear death again.

The effect is still very good.

The cavalry is the most elite, and the most light on life and death.

If the galloping war horse accidentally stepped on a sharp rock or a small pit, it would lead to an accidental death, which made the cavalry put down their thoughts of life and death every time they went out.

This kind of awareness has no distinction between Han and Wei.

Seeing that Fei Yao was the first to charge, the Qudu of the Guard Department kicked the horse's belly to death regardless, overtook him, and stood in front of Fei Yao again, turning into a human shield and charging resolutely.

It also drove all Wei Qi's swearing to die.

I have to admit that Wei Guo's Guanzhong Jingqi is worthy of the title of elite.

Despite the heavy casualties, he was still able to bravely charge the Han cavalry with more soldiers and fight decisively.

It's just that sometimes, the courage to die can't offset the objective disadvantages, especially in front of Han Qi, who is also known as the elite and has a chance to win.When the two armies crossed again, there were only two hundred Wei cavalrymen left who followed Fei Yaodong, and everyone was injured.

Fortunately, Fei Yao was unharmed.

Not even a chance to swing the blade.

Because of his Buqudu and other personal guards, almost no one survived.

When he led the remnants to Zhang Bao's place, he could only save more than [-] riders, and they went back to Mingsha Mountain miserably.

Originally, the three hundred Wei cavalry could not survive the chance, and they were about to dismount and please surrender.

However, the Shaodang Qiang people had no formation to rely on and lack of experience in battle. When Fei Yao came, they instinctively avoided Wei Qi without carefully looking at the size of Wei Qi.

Such a brief moment of negligence caused the three hundred Wei cavalry to find a gap, and everyone burst out with survival instincts, breaking out of the encirclement
It only made Zhang Bao's eyes wide open for a while.

But I can't get angry with those Shao Dangqiang who invited me to help the battle, let alone feel aggrieved.

Zhao Guang did not lead the army to pursue Fei Yao.

One is that they can't catch up, and the other is that they are worried about Jiang Wei's mistakes.

Deduced from all aspects of ordnance, combat power, and cavalry quality, the chances of winning the Qiang cavalry of the Han Qiang Battalion against the Wei Guanzhong fine cavalry of the same strength are really slim.

Even Jiang Wei personally supervised the leadership.

However, when he ordered Sima under his command to surrender some of Wei's rout soldiers and cleaned up the battlefield, he was about to lead troops to support him, but he found that Jiang Wei's cavalry had arrived.In this way, Xu Gai, who was behind the tail, saw the battle here from a distance, and turned straight to the north into the vast desert to find the way back to Mingsha Mountain.

However, it doesn't matter anymore.

In this battle, Wei Guo had three thousand horses before the battle.

And there are many wounded among those cavalry pawns who fled back, maybe two or three hundred cavalry were injured after the battle.

But Han Qi killed and wounded Qian Qi.

Among them, Zhao Guang's troops took the lead and had the right tactics, with less than 300 cavalry lost in the battle; the Cavalry of the Huqiang Battalion were killed and injured more than [-] cavalry, while the Shaodang clan of Qiang people lost nearly [-] cavalry.
