Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 450 It's Easy to Ask God

Walking around the formation in a herringbone shape is really not a good idea.

Inside the Liangguo army, this method of riding against each other is called scraping fat.

It means that whenever cavalry pass through both sides of such an infantry formation, a layer of 'fat' will be scraped off.

The roaring Gaochang Uyghur cavalry did not dare to charge hundreds of silver spears head-on, and they bypassed Wu Jixing's troops on both sides.

The distance between the two sides was basically within five steps. The cavalry used the spears and sabers in their hands to stab and slash the infantry with the speed of the horse's impact.

In addition to the infantry firing their bows and crossbows, the silver spear soldiers in formation shouted and stabbed outwards wave after wave.

Throughout the Five Dynasties, there are many armies that can help you kill people with money, and the silver guns can be famous for future generations. They have become representatives of the Five Dynasties army. Their spear training has a very unique aspect.

The spears of these silver spearmen are accurate and ruthless, and with their heavy armor, it is difficult for the Gaochang Uighur cavalry to seriously injure them whether they shoot with spears, sabers or bows and arrows.

And once the cavalry was stabbed by the soldiers of Silver Spear Capital, blood would splatter immediately.

For a while, the horses and cavalry screamed and fell to the ground.

And because the cavalry is in the charge, they can't stay, even if they suffer a loss, they can only continue to move forward.

After bypassing Wu Jixing's troops, what they were facing was another 600 people from Dunzhu and Manxiong's troops. The herringbone-shaped cavalry team was divided into many characters here.

The cavalry who had just suffered from Wu Jixing's side felt that the infantry who only dared to stay behind should be easier to fight, although they looked quite big.

But they soon realized that they were thinking too much, which is a pity.

Although Man Xiong has reached the point of being the governor of a state, he is actually the fierce general who charged side by side with Zhang Zhao in the past.

He is different from Dunzhu and Wang Tongxun. Wang Tongxun wanted to transform into a general, but he had no choice but to give up after trying.

The brain is a strange thing, if you have it, you have it, if you don’t have it, you don’t have it.

If you don't have the talent of a general, you have fought all your life, and what you have accumulated is how to stand shoulder to shoulder with your brothers in killing methods, and you will not be able to become a person like Li Weigong.

Wang Communication had tried, but failed in the end. Man Xiong was too lazy to try, because he knew he was not that material.

It's not just him, his son doesn't have that talent either, so Man Xiong has cut off the few gentlemen his mother-in-law found for his son, leaving only one, and started to urge him to practice martial arts emphatically.

In a few breaths, the cavalry arrived at the phalanx of the wild bears.

The 600 people under him belonged to the jumping soldiers in Regret Mountain Capital, and they used hammers and axes as their main means of output on weekdays.

At this moment, the cavalry attacked, and they replaced the hatchets they used to break through the formation with broad-bladed long-handled axes.

"Only look at the horse's legs, not people, anyone who wants to look up, the military law will not forgive!"

The barbarian roared wildly, and the request was very simple, just stare at the horse's leg and chop it off.

As for the knights on horseback, whether they are shooting arrows or stabbing them with long spears, they rely on the protection of teammates with bows and crossbows, and rely on armor to resist.

The bear's strategy is constantly summed up from the war, and it has to be said to be very effective.

However, it is not something that ordinary soldiers can do, because after cutting off the horse's leg, there is a certain probability that it will be hit by the horse, and it is basically over.

Therefore, when cutting the horse's legs, they must swarm up, and when they are finished, they must run back neatly.

In addition to choosing the right timing, holding a big ax weighing seven or eight catties and wearing armor weighing tens of catties, slashing back and forth is not something ordinary people can do.

Li Ponu held a long-handled axe, lowered his head, and his whole body was full of excitement.

He was originally a member of the Datong Army in Yunzhou, and he had resisted the Khitans together with Tuiguan Wu Luan.

The year before last, the Khitan people had held Datong for seven or eight months, and Li Ponu thought he was doomed.

But then things changed. After Zhang Tianwang and Yelu Deguang met at Shahukou, they were taken from Datong to Xiazhou for resettlement.

When Li Ponu's elder brother was defending the city, his thigh was cut and he was limping, and his hand was not very flexible.

In this era, a man with inconvenient hands and feet often ends up miserable.

But when they arrived in Xiazhou, Liang Guobing Cao's officials who checked their military achievements found them. After learning about his elder brother's achievements in shooting and killing one Khitan soldier and killing two with a broadsword while defending the city, he immediately reported the credit to them.

After a few days, the reward came. Li Ponu's elder brother got a mule, five white cotton cloths, and [-] mu of land.

He was also given a steer with another wounded soldier from the Datong Army.

With land, there is hope for survival, and a mule and half a steer ensure that there is no shortage of labor in farming.

A few days later, the officials sent another widow to his elder brother.

The widow also brought three children, two, one, one, and three. The older boy, who is about ten years old, can help the family with work.

And with women and children, brother Li Ponu's disability can be offset to a large extent.

After all, he is only lame, not useless. Certain farm work can still be done, but life is inconvenient.

Li Ponu can still remember that when the widow and three children were brought before his elder brother, his elder brother wept bitterly and howled, saying that he would serve as a soldier for the king in the next life.

This scene deeply shocked Li Ponu, he felt the temptation of military exploits for the first time, as long as he kills three people, he will be able to complete the land, house, mother-in-law, aunts, cattle and horses.

Therefore, he immediately bid farewell to his elder brother, who could live on his own, and signed up for an expedition to Gaochang. He wanted what his elder brother had.

Um!Although my sister-in-law has given birth to three children, she is quite beautiful.

The important thing is to be very strong, so you don't need to work, and if you have three or five more, you won't be afraid of losing people.

"cut!"

A thunderous roar exploded in Li Ponu's ears, he shook violently, and drove out all the messy thoughts in his head.

Following this roar, Li Ponu felt countless hits on his head and shoulders, and the pain rained down on him.

Although he was wearing a thick iron armor, it still hurt a lot from the beating.

In particular, there was a very thick thing that hit his head so hard that he was dizzy.

But he didn't care about these, the only thing he cared about was a pair of galloping horse legs, they were so strong, there was a lot of flesh at first glance.

There was a peculiar smell of livestock, and Li Ponu raised his big ax obliquely, and slashed across it swiftly.

Blood came out as soon as it burst, and a panicked cry came from above his head. Li Ponu turned and ran away, only to hear a bang, and a strong horse screamed and fell to the ground.

When Li Ponu went to look at it again, the horse was still struggling to stand up, pawing on the yellow sand with bloody broken legs.

And the cavalry on horseback was crushed by the horse's thigh, and he roared with his face covered in blood, as if to scare Li Ponu not to approach.

But it was of no use, a comrade with a black hammer had already gone up and hit him on the head, and a red one and a white one spewed out.

Those Uighurs who were not suppressed by the horses did not run away either. There were already some hook gunners who hooked his leather armor or chain mail with the gunner's hook and dragged them directly.

The knight howled and kicked his legs wildly, his fingers were cut by the hook of the hook and sickle gun, but he couldn't get rid of it. When he was about to get close to the army formation, there was a big gun holding his big gun high, and there was no movement after a blow .

After most of the fallen riders were dealt with, it was Li Ponu's turn to climb up again.

Armed with long axes, they crossed the blood and dead bodies all over the ground to find their next target.

Scraping fat, this tactic is really well-deserved.

After the Gaochang Uyghur cavalry were driven by inertia, they passed through the regret mountain capital and the silver gun capital in the shape of a crowd.

There were seven or eight thousand cavalry, and five or six hundred cavalry were lost. This is not counted as being shot and killed by crossbows.

They couldn't bear the casualties, Guo Guangcheng and Chen Huiming's cavalry hadn't been dispatched yet, and these cavalry ran back in a hurry.

Feng Hui was a little stunned. He felt that it was a bit too ruthless to fight cavalry with such combat power with both Regret Mountain Capital and Silver Spear?
Will it scare them away?

Jieli Pijia was also stunned, my cavalry!Just so many cavalry!That's all there is left?

In less than half an hour, more than a thousand was reimbursed?

Zuo Xiang Jiejia Misi looked more and more wrong, he rushed to Jieli Pijia and said.

"Heavenly King, I heard that the guards next to Bandit Zhang in Liangguo are named Regret Shandu, and they are elite soldiers from Zhang Bandit's founding, and they are able to stand up to ten in iron armor.

Saktu was defeated by them in the past, it must be that the regret mountain has come here, Zhang thief should not be far away from here. "

Hearing this, Jie Lipijia was a little shaken in his heart, but he couldn't just retreat, could he?

"If Zhang Thief's Regret Mountains are all here, what's the best strategy for Prime Minister Zuo?"

Jie Jiami thought for a while, "If the Zhang thief regrets all the mountains, the large army must be behind. They are better than infantry, and we can't use our own strength to attack the enemy's strength.

It's better to get out of the way, let them in, and then use rangers to cut off their food roads. It can also prevent the Zhang thief's vanguard and main force from joining forces, and then try to defeat them one by one. "

"That's right!" Jieli Pika nodded.

"But in this case, our army will be somewhat small. If we want to fortify the walls, clear the fields and cut off the food roads, we must have [-] to [-] horsemen."

"Then let go of Guancheng on Baishuijiandao, and invite Bugla Khan's army to enter Gaochang to help." Jiejiamisi said in a low voice.

Hearing what his left counterpart said, Jieli Pika frowned deeply.

"I'm afraid it's easier to invite God than to send God away! In the past, the emperor of the Great Dynasty invited our ancestors to join the chaos of the two thieves in the Central Plains' Pingan History, but the lessons are not far away."

Unexpectedly, Jieli Pijia understood quite well, but that’s right, it’s easier to invite gods than to give them away, and it was originally to evaluate the Uighurs for helping the Tang Dynasty to quell the chaos.

Jiejia Misi shook his head slowly, "Heavenly King, Bugla Khan just wants to gain some benefits, so you can talk about it slowly, Zhang Thief is here to destroy our country."

This is the truth, even if Saktu entered Gaochang, he would not be able to eat Gaochang country, but Zhang Zhao could, and it was clear at a glance who was more important and who was less important.

"Okay!" Jieli Pijia nodded slowly, "Then give it to Pu Gucheng of Baishui Jiandao Military City to summon Bugla Khan to Gaochang."
