Chapter 1473 Life and Death Line of Defense

Since the frog soldiers can take on such a function, they know the arduousness of this task. As long as they are dispatched, they will inevitably be attacked by enemy archers.

They had such mental preparations in their hearts, so facing the rain of arrows, the frog soldiers did not have the slightest fear, and they still moved forward bravely.

After filling the dark pit, they still moved forward and rushed towards the clear trench.

Since the launch, the cavalry has been in the limelight, and the infantry has stormed Hezhou City for several days, but has not broken through the city. The infantry is facing great pressure. In today's battle, they naturally regard death as home. No matter what, they must take advantage of this opportunity to win back their face Come.

The closer the distance, the more casualties. Gu Liangchen's cavalry regiment waited quietly. Although the cavalry group and the infantry group had private conflicts, but at this moment, seeing the shield soldiers and toad soldiers of Tianshan regard death as if they were going to fill the road, the cavalry did not Also admiring in his heart, Gu Liangchen suddenly raised his sword and shouted: "The infantry is mighty, the infantry is mighty!"

Thousands of cavalrymen immediately raised their sabers behind them. The sabers were like a forest, and a crescent moon had already floated in the sky. The moonlight in the sky shone on the sabers, and the cold light shone coldly. They shouted in unison: "The infantry is mighty, the infantry is mighty!"

At this moment, they admired from the bottom of their hearts, cheering up the infantry soldiers who were paving the way ahead. The morale of the infantrymen was boosted even more when they heard the cavalry shouting so loudly.

Chu Huan looked at the toad soldiers filling up the trench with no regard for their own lives, but he felt a little sigh in his heart. He thought to himself that the Tianshan Army was really not a bunch of mobs.

Pei Ji had a dignified expression at this moment.

In the front direction, whether it is the cavalry or infantry of the Tianshan Mountains, the main force has already gathered here. Hou Jingang led tens of thousands of cavalry and spread out for more than ten miles. After giving an order, they rushed straight down from the slope like a flood tilt.

No trenches were dug in the horse training valley, but they visited the horn posts. After the cavalry in front swooped down, they swung their knives and chopped the horn posts in an attempt to remove them. Although many of the horn posts were damaged, there were still many cavalry When he was caught by a sheep's horn stake, he turned his back on his back.

It's just that the Tianshan cavalry is like a flood, and their morale is high. The horn piles can't resist at all. The cavalry who rushed into the valley quickly rushed to the side of the slope, and Pei Ji had already ordered the archers to use arrows to make the first round of attacks. , Among the cavalry, there are cavalrymen turning their backs from time to time, but the ten-mile-long battle line is full of Tianshan cavalry everywhere. Amidst the sound of fighting, the blood stained the loess, and the corpses lay all over the place. The cavalry sprinting is indeed very spectacular. Their maneuvering Sex is also beyond the reach of infantry, but in just a moment, some soldiers have rushed here and climbed up.

The horses of the Tianshan cavalry are mainly Northwest horses, which are full of endurance and not weak in climbing ability. Soon, many cavalry climbed to the edge of the wooden railing on the slope, and swung their knives to chop down the wooden railing. , As long as a gap can be opened, it is like a dike breaking, and the cavalry behind can flood in like a flood.

Of course, the Xiguan Army, which was defending from the front, had been prepared for a long time. They knew that this was a bitter battle. When the cavalry rushed in, the archers had already retreated to the back, while the Xiguan pikemen with long spears quickly stepped forward. When the cavalry rushed up, Swinging their knives at the fence, the pikemen had poked out their spears from the gaps in the fence and stabbed the Tianshan soldiers fiercely.

Inside and outside the wooden fence, there are dense crowds of people, fighting with swords and swords, and the sound of fighting can be heard all over the inside and outside.

Because of the geographical conditions of Horse Taming Valley, the Tianshan cavalry had no way to cross the wooden fence and wall directly. They had to cut through the wooden fence to make a gap. Every section of the battle line of more than ten miles was attacked by cavalry, and every section also had Xiguan. The soldiers resisted desperately.

In fact, the racecourse itself has no strategic value. Of course, the purpose of the Tianshan Army is not to occupy the racecourse, but to break through the line of defense and enter the racecourse. In this way, the cavalry gallops freely in the racecourse, no matter how brave the Xiguan Army is. In the racecourse, the infantry cannot be the opponent of the cavalry anyway.

As long as the cavalry broke into the racecourse, the combat power would be judged immediately. Unless the Xiguan Army had no choice but to surrender, it would turn into a brutal massacre of cavalry against infantry.

Similarly, for the Xiguan army, there is no retreat in the racecourse. Of course, they also know that once the cavalry breaks into the racecourse, the only thing they can rely on now is the barrier of wooden fences and walls. This is the only barrier to fight to the death with the enemy, because with this barrier, the advantages of the cavalry cannot be fully utilized, and the infantry can completely strangle the cavalry here.

The sound of killing was loud, and Zhu Lingyue had already seen his cavalry rushing towards the racecourse like a flood, and heard the sound of fighting from the north and south directions, and the situation of siege from three sides had been fully formed.

This is a battle related to the ownership of the Northwest. Zhu Lingyue knows very well that no matter who wins today's battle, he and Chu Huan will both become the veritable King of the Northwest.

Although the Tianshan army has the obvious upper hand, the governor of Tianshan, who has been low-key and cautious for half his life, still has a dignified expression, holding the handle of the saber at his waist with one hand, looking forward, looking north and south from time to time, Leng Qingyue, he was in the back line, so of course he couldn't see the battle situation on both sides, but fortunately, scouts from both sides came in an endless stream, and new battle reports would be sent over every once in a while.

"My lord, the cavalry has launched a charge!"

"Report, my lord governor, the cavalry encountered a trap and lost a lot of troops!"

"Report to the governor, the cavalry stopped attacking, and the infantry has rushed up."

"The shield soldiers have covered the toad soldiers and are filling the trench!"

"Report, the first trench has been filled and is approaching the second trench!"

"Report to the Governor, the Xiguan Army's arrows are fierce, and our army has suffered a lot of losses!"

Continuous battle reports kept coming, Zhu Lingyue's expression remained the same with each battle report, but his eyes changed at any time.

"Xuantong, when do you think we can take down the racecourse?" Zhu Lingyue suddenly turned to look at Sheng Xuantong beside him.

Sheng Xuantong is the commander of the infantry and the leader of the Tianshan infantry group. He has followed Zhu Lingyue for many years and is loyal. He is one of Zhu Lingyue's few trusted subordinates.

The main force of the cavalry led by Hou Jingang launched an attack from the front, while Sheng Xuantong and Ming Ji, two infantry heavyweights, followed Zhu Lingyue and stood behind, ready to attack at any time.

"Zhu Du, although Chu Huan is cunning, but in this situation, he can't play any tricks." Sheng Xuantong was full of confidence, "Zhu Du came with the momentum of Mount Tai, Hou Jingang, Di Renjie, Gu Liangchen They are all undeservedly brave, but they are first-class generals. Our army is besieging on three sides, and the Xiguan army is already at the end of its strength, and it won't last long!"

Zhu Lingyue sighed lightly: "I hope so." Then he smiled and said: "Xuantong, it seems that you have a high opinion of Hou Jingang and the others!"

"Zhu Du, if you want to be loyal to Zhu Du, you must distinguish between public and private." Sheng Xuantong said solemnly: "Hou Jingang is arrogant, and the general is really not used to it, but today's battle is related to Zhu Du's great cause. Although the general hates Hou Jingang, he is indeed a brave man, Zhu Du is a brilliant man in employing people!"

Hearing this, Zhu Lingyue stroked his beard and said with a smile: "We are united, we will win this battle!"

Hou Jingang was indeed brave. He brandished his sword and commanded the cavalry to rush forward one after another. Although he saw that many of the cavalry who rushed forward were stabbed to death by spears, the entire cavalry formation had moved to the edge of the wall at this moment. The soldiers fought hand in hand, but some soldiers fell in front, and the cavalry came up to fight in an instant.

As the cavalry fought against the spears protruding from behind the wooden fence, they chopped down the wooden fence as much as possible. As long as they could cut down the wooden fence, they could charge in.

But the Xiguan army obviously knew this too, and they didn't give the opponent a chance to destroy the wooden fence. Sometimes five or six long spears stabbed out from the top to bottom of the narrow openings in the middle of Mulan. Even with three heads and six arms, no matter how brave they are, it is hard to resist. Many people were stabbed to death in an instant, and the gap was like a trap, waiting for the Tianshan cavalry to arrive.

At this moment, the horsemen and horses on both sides used the wooden fence as a benchmark, gathering inside and outside. Although the Tianshan cavalry was everywhere in the horse training valley, the cavalry in front couldn't kill them, and of course the cavalry behind couldn't squeeze in. A wooden fence, plus The Xiguan soldiers behind the wooden fence were like an insurmountable moat for a while.

Soldiers from both sides concentrated on this line to fight, the roars and screams, the shouts of people and the neighing of horses were intertwined, bloody and cruel, but extremely spectacular.

"Xuantong, do you know that there is one thing that Ben Du admires Chu Huan very much." The sound of fighting came to Zhu Lingyue's ears, and Zhu Lingyue suddenly sighed.

"Oh?" Sheng Xuantong asked, "What does Zhu Du mean?"

"Spine!" Zhu Lingyue said: "Compared to Xiao Huanzhang, Chu Huan has much more backbone. Back then, the governor did not have the help of the Northwest Army, and Xiao Huanzhang had also been operating in Beishan for many years, but he seemed to be holding back on the governor. The governor knew that if Chu Huan hadn't come to the northwest, Xiao Huanzhang could only be in the hands of the governor, and he would not be able to make waves. However, Chu Huan knew that the Tianshan Army and the Northwest Army would join hands, and he would be defeated in Xiguan, but this person still raised his hand. Zhan Qi, fighting with Ben Du, this backbone, Ben Du appreciates it very much. If he does not choose to resist, but submits to Ben Du, the Ben Du may not give him a way to survive."

Sheng Xuantong said with a smile: "It's just young and vigorous, I don't know the heights of heaven and earth, I'm afraid Chu Huan has regretted it now!"

Zhu Lingyue sighed softly: "I hope he doesn't regret it, I hope he can fight to the last moment, killing a hero is much better than killing a coward!"

The battle was fierce, not only the frontal attack and defense were cruel, but the north and south sides were also at close quarters at this time.

The toad soldiers paid a heavy price, five to six hundred people, most of them were killed or injured, and finally filled out a broad road for the cavalry behind, and the Tianshan cavalry was already ready to go, the horn sounded, and the toad soldiers who had completed the task were standing in front of the shield soldiers. Under the cover, they had already begun to retreat. The Tianshan cavalry, who had been waiting for a long time, were already preparing for formation. When the infantry retreated, Gu Liangchen pointed his sword forward amidst the sound of the horn, and the cavalry launched a tidal charge.
