Chapter 328 Cavalry Attack

The officers and soldiers were not of the same kind. Seeing the "Zuo Jin Wang" cavalry crossing the formation and trying to attack the soldiers who were camping behind the officers and soldiers, Deng Qi quickly ordered his general Tao Xiqian to lead the cavalry to stop the "Zuo Jin King".

This Tao Xiqian was originally a guerrilla general sent by the governor of Henan to support Zuo Liangyu, because Zuo Liangyu saved Zuo Liangyu's life before, and Zuo Liangyu allocated some heads as a thank-you gift, so he was promoted to a general.

The guerrilla general who led the cavalry battle last time, Yue Zhongzhong, retreated timidly, causing the officers and soldiers to be defeated. After discussing with Zuo Liangyu, Deng Qi simply handed over the cavalry in the hands of the officers and soldiers to the new general Tao Xiqian.

As Tao Xiqian's new official took office, he really had a bit of courage.Seeing "King Zuo Jin" leading his troops around, he bravely went up to meet him.

Fortunately, "Zuo Jin Wang" did not have Zhang Shun's personal supervision on the front line, and he did not want to play the trick of cavalry hedging.

After all, there is only one good life in my family, no more, no less, no one is willing to throw it lightly.

If they played "death hedge" like Zhang Shun personally supervised, one charge down, no matter the victory or defeat, the brothers would have to stop ten times and stop twice, it really doesn't count.

Therefore, "Zuo Jin Wang" and the new general Tao Xiqian each led five hundred knights under their command, wandering, standing, shooting, and fighting with each other, and it was impossible to tell the winner for a while.

Then Liu Cheng followed closely and led five hundred knights out.Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox and a ten-thousand-year demon, so what are you playing in Liaozhai!At a glance, Liu Cheng could tell that "King Zuo Jin" hadn't tried his best, but he didn't say anything either.

After all, "accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger", Liu Cheng couldn't figure out what Zhang Shun was thinking.If you talk in vain easily, you will become a villain instead.

How could Zhang Shun expect that when there are many people under his command, each has his own thoughts and plans.Once he can't come to the battlefield in person, many generals under his command will start to "paddle".

This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Shun was able to gain a foothold in the thousands of disaster victims who were abducted by Zhang Shun.Although Zhang Shun's men and horses had uneven weapons and armor back then, fortunately they didn't have the problem of veteran soldiers, and they were able to dare to fight and charge. This is a good soldier!

However, the officers and soldiers and other rebels have fought too many bad battles, and the soldiers are also fueled.Once the battle started, the commander first slacked off by three points, then the generals slack off by another three points, and the soldiers even more slack off by another three points. With only one point of strength, everyone fought against Zhang Shun's soldiers who had exerted five points of strength. How can you be undefeated?
Now that Zhang Shun has more troops under his command, if Zhang Shun can't do it himself, he can't keep the other generals from "paddling" and slacking off.

Zhang Shun was in the middle army. Although he was standing on a high place, Zhang Shun could only see the "Zuo Jin King" and the officers and soldiers chasing after each other due to the cover of the soldiers on both sides. From time to time, he was blocked by the corners of the officers and soldiers, so he couldn't see clearly. .

At this time, I saw that Liu Cheng led the cavalry and did not help the "Zuo Jin King", but harassed the side of the formation of his officers and soldiers.

"Zuo Jin Wang" and Liu Cheng are located on the right side of the formation of the rebel army, that is, the left side of the formation of officers and soldiers.It was the place where the "King of Troubled Times" in the rebel army and Tang Jiuzhou among the officers and soldiers faced each other.

The pawns on both sides are still far away, and they have not yet started to meet.Liu Chengcheng began to shoot at Tang Kyushu's Changping Army with three-eyed blunderbuss, fast guns, and bows and arrows.

Cavalry shoot at infantry, not just at each other.Because infantry is down-to-earth, the firearms, bows and arrows used are often more powerful than cavalry, and the stability of shooting is also better than that of cavalry.Fortunately, the cavalry is superior in its high mobility. Liu Chengcheng is a veteran cavalry general, and he has a good command of troops.

He ordered the cavalry under his command to form a column, and like a sharp arrow, he stabbed obliquely towards the corner of the Tang Kyushu Changping Army's formation.

The formation formed by Tang Jiuzhou's Changping Army is a common phalanx. This formation is the strongest against the enemy from the front, although it is slightly weaker on the side, it can also turn in time to face the enemy.

However, when Liu Cheng's cavalry charged from the corner of the formation, there was a certain degree of confusion in the command of the Changping Army.Because the commander can't determine whether to let the front of the phalanx shoot at the cavalry or the side of the phalanx to shoot at the cavalry, or even shoot at the charging cavalry from both sides.

Because the front-line personnel did not get the order in time, they had to act on their own, shooting randomly and finishing the job.

Some shot projectiles and arrows within [-] steps of the [-]-foot trail, and some were in a hurry, before they were ready to attack, Liu Cheng's cavalry rushed to them.

However, Liu Cheng was not prepared to directly charge into the formation. The cavalry directly charged into the formation with good formation, and it was easy to encounter "hard stubble", which caused heavy losses to the cavalry, and the gain outweighed the loss.

When Liu Cheng's cavalry was more than ten steps away from the corner of the Tang Jiuzhou Changping Army's formation, they turned their horses' heads sideways, parallel to the side of the Changping Army's phalanx, and then swept across, shooting out the arrows and projectiles in their hands by the way. .

The Changping army was caught off guard, and was immediately killed and wounded twenty or thirty people by the cavalry under Liu Cheng's command.

At this time, Tang Jiuzhou has already reflected, and it is not too late to mend the situation.He hastily ordered the soldiers in the right row to take a few steps to the left to fill in the officers and soldiers killed by the rebels to maintain the integrity of the formation.

As a result, Tang Jiuzhou had just rectified the formation, and the cavalry under Liu Cheng had adjusted the formation and angle, and did the same again, and circled around.This time, the Changping Army under Tang Jiuzhou lost more than [-] people again.

Now Tang Jiuzhou couldn't sit still. As the deputy general of Changping, he had dealt with Mongolian and Jurchen cavalry.

Xuan Da Jiliao's cavalry was not weaker than the first two, and they were often able to take advantage, allowing the opponent to experience the frustration of being harassed by the cavalry. How could he have thought that he would suffer such a disadvantage today.

He quickly sent a messenger to report to the chief general Deng Qi, requesting that the cavalry drawn from their Changping Army go back to cover the side of the formation.

However, since Sichuan soldiers are mainly infantry, there are more than [-] officers and soldiers, and only [-] cavalry brought by the Changping Army are weaker than the rebel army.

Now in order to prevent the rebels from disturbing the construction of the camp after the battle, Deng Qi has sent out [-] cavalry.If another [-] cavalry were released to cover the left side of the formation, then Deng Qi would only have [-] cavalry available.This is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for a battle of [-] people.

But just when Deng Qi was hesitating, Liu Cheng saw Tang Jiuzhou's falsehood and reality, so he took the opportunity to make a tentative attack, killing the Changping Army's left side in chaos, and was almost defeated by Liu Cheng directly.

Tang Jiuzhou couldn't help being startled, and quickly led his servants to resist, and finally killed Liu Cheng's cavalry.Only then did Tang Jiuzhou count the number of people, and it is estimated that more than [-] people were lost again.

It turned out that this was not only because of the poor combat effectiveness of the Changping Army, but also because of Zhang Shun's repeated attacks on the morale of the officers and soldiers, resulting in a low overall morale. Once a little setback, the officers and soldiers began to waver.
