Water Margin people

Chapter 902 Infantry vs Cavalry

In the dark night, Wu Yanguang and others led [-] fine cavalry out of the north gate of Xijin Mansion and disappeared into the night.

Although Wu Yanguang decided to attack, he also knew that he could not attack head-on. If the enemy dared to attack, he must be well prepared. He had to sneak around and attack.

The artillery was still bombarding, and the southern city tower of Xijin Mansion had been bombarded to pieces, and a thick column was broken.

"Brother, if the bombardment continues like this, what are we going to fight for?"

Li Kui looked at the rows of artillery spitting flames and felt anxious. If he continued the blast, he was afraid that all the enemies would die.

"You're the one to fight! This means you have a lot of momentum, but the damage is actually limited."

Sun Lei shook his head and said, solid projectiles cannot cause much damage.

"Brother, the enemy has come out of the city, and they are really going around the back!"

Gongsun Sheng said with a smile.

"Tianniu, it's your turn!"

Sun Lei looked at Li Kui with a smile and said.

"Brother, don't worry, it's up to me!"

Li Kui excitedly picked up a pair of axes.

Sun Lei and his men quickly arrived at the rear of the army.

"This time all the troops coming are light cavalry! The infantry will be the vanguard!"

"Li Kui, Bao Xu, Li Gun, and Xiang Chong, lead the trapped camp as the vanguard! Slow down the enemy's attack! Feng Tai leads the Mo Dao Shou, and Xu Ning leads the Golden Spear Squad behind."

Sun Lei looked at the crowd and said.

"Brother, why don't we come?"

Wu Song asked, "There aren't many people coming, they can definitely surround and kill them."

"No need, just repel them. Our strength should not be exposed too much."

Sun Lei shook his head and said, "It's not easy to wipe out ten thousand cavalry in the dark, and it's not easy to show off your appearance. On the one hand, this attack on the camp is to analyze the siege of Jinfu, and on the other hand, I'm afraid it's also to test the reality."

"Brother, why is this!"

Lu Fang and others were puzzled.

"A little impatience will mess up a big plan. After all, Xijin Mansion is the capital of the Liao Kingdom. There are still 20 elites in the city. If we want to defeat Xijin Mansion, we must first defeat these 20 troops. Before the decisive battle, our strength is exposed Too much is not wise.”

When Sun Lei saw everyone looking over, he said, if the enemy is beaten too hard tonight and the enemy is frightened and turns into a coward, hiding in the city and playing a war of attrition, then the gain will not be worth the loss.

Everyone suddenly understood and nodded with smiles. The lion fought the rabbit with all his strength, but this full strength must be a sure-kill blow, not a random blow.

Wu Yanguang led the cavalry in a large circle and finally arrived behind the Liangshan camp.

"Surprise attack, hit one and then leave!"

Wu Yanguang immediately gave the order, and Yelu Guozhen and Yelu Guobao beside him took the order and led the cavalry to charge in a roundabout way.

The sound of galloping war horses echoed through the night, and the Liao people were like beasts hidden in the night, showing their sharp fangs.

"ignition!"

With a roar, the fire started, and long fire snakes spread out in the dark night. It turned out that the wood had been buried on the ground and poured with kerosene.

One after another, the fire snakes spread far from the rear of the Liangshan camp, and even enveloped the Bei Liao cavalry. In the firelight, nothing could be hidden.

"kill!"

Wu Yanguang had no choice but to fire his arrow at this time. If he retreated at this time, Xijin Mansion would still have to be bombarded.

The cavalry was very fast. Although the horses were afraid of the fire, they were well-trained and under the control of the cavalry, so they were not affected at all.

"kill!"

Li Kui was dressed in black heavy armor, with a dark visor on his face. There were bloodthirsty eyes in the two holes, and he swung a pair of axes like wheels.

Bao Xu followed closely with his army, and Li Gun and Xiang Chong led the regiment players to defend from both sides.

At the rear were Fengtai's two thousand swordsmen and Xu Ning's golden spear squad. "kill!"

When Yelu Guozhen saw that the enemy was coming from the infantry, a cruel and ferocious smile appeared on his face. The cavalry was the nemesis of the infantry.

Before the two armies came into contact, Li Gun and Xiang Chong threw flying knives and short spears first, and a row of Northern Liao cavalry in front of them fell to the ground instantly.

The Tuanpai player immediately stepped forward. The Tuanpai stood on the ground. The two iron rods on its back supported a solid triangular structure. The front of the Tuanpai had sharp edges and corners, and there was an iron cone on it. It was completely made of an egg shield.

The cavalryman hit the regiment card and fell down, and the impact was greatly reduced in an instant.

"Look at mine!"

Li Kui rushed in like an iron hedgehog, but the spears, swords, and horse swords of the Bei Liao cavalry could not cause any damage. The thick iron armor and Li Kui's burly figure were considered invincible.

Li Kui swung his axe, specifically to cut the horse's legs. Wherever it passed, people and horses fell over.

Bao Xu immediately led his men forward to finish off the attack, while Li Gun and Xiang Chong led the group players to defend against the enemies coming from left and right.

Light cavalry cannot cause effective damage to heavy armored infantry. After the impact force is reduced, the battle becomes even more passive.

"Go around and kill!"

Seeing that he could not break through from the front, Wu Yanguang immediately ordered the cavalry to take a circuitous route. Their advantage was speed. The heavy armored infantry moved slowly and could not keep up with their speed.

"kill!"

At this moment, Fengtai and Xu Ning arrived with a large army. They had Mo's swords on top to cut people, and hooks, sickles and spears on the bottom to hook horses' legs. The cavalry who were preparing to retreat were killed before they could leave.

"Go back first!"

Wu Yanguang was shocked. Both the Mo Dao and the Hook Sickle were the nemesis of the cavalry. If they had the speed to charge, they could break the situation with their impact, but now their speed had already been blocked by the heavy armored infantry, and the light cavalry had no speed. Can't stand the Mo Dao and the Hook and Sickle.

The Beiliao cavalry retreated with shouts.

"Kill kill kill!"

Li Kui roared angrily. At this time, he was already covered in blood, and the blood inspired his ferocity. He wielded his ax to chop down the Northern Liao cavalry who had no time to turn around.

Wu Yanguang looked at the army around him with great hatred in his heart. In just one battle, his cavalry suffered nearly three thousand casualties. If they had not withdrawn, they would have been strangled to death by the enemy.

Li Kui killed the enemy in front of him and charged directly towards Wu Yanguang's military formation not far away.

"General, the enemy's infantry has armor, we can't kill it!"

Yelu Guozhen looked at Wu Yanguang and said, he just stabbed several enemies in succession, but the black heavy armor had amazing defensive power. The steel gun could only leave a scratch on it, and the damage to the enemies was limited.

"The enemy is rushing over. We will retreat and attack the enemy camp directly, burning down some of the tents containing supplies!"

Wu Yanguang immediately ordered that the infantry in front of him were just lumps of iron and they could not be used up at all. This reminded Wu Yanguang of the Jurchens in the north, who were also heavily armored and invulnerable.

The Bei Liao cavalry charged again. This time they detoured from the side early and directly bypassed the Liangshan Infantry.

"Fangou, grandpa is here!"

Li Kui was so angry that he yelled. The enemy obviously didn't want to fight him, so he let him go from a distance. Since he couldn't catch up, he could only stare, jump and curse.

The people of Beiliao didn't care about Li Kui's yelling and scolding, and rushed straight to the Liangshan camp.

"It's not like you're brainless!"

Sun Lei looked at the Liao people rushing over and smiled.

A row of chariots opened directly, and the iron caltrops and horses instantly formed a solid line of defense.

"This!"

Wu Yanguang's expression changed drastically when he saw the chariots and horses entangled with iron caltrops.

But before Wu Yanguang could react, Hua Rong and Pang Wanchun were already in position behind the chariot with their archers.

The sound of dense bowstrings resounded through the battlefield, and the arrow rain came instantly. The charging Bei Liao cavalry fell to the ground piece by piece without being cut down by the wheat.

"withdraw!"

Wu Yanguang no longer dared to stay here. He could not get close to the Liangshan camp. Liangshan's ordnance was much more powerful than theirs. (End of chapter)
