Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 306
Li Yue changed his course to the west, and Fu Xiong also started to go west.

On the Great Plains, cavalry had an absolute advantage, but on long-distance marches, especially in the mountains and waters of western Henan, sometimes cavalry may not be able to catch up with infantry.

It is impossible for war horses to maintain a high-speed running state all the time, but people's will to survive can make them tireless.

After crossing Rushui, more than 8000 people were captured one after another, but all of them were members of Zhang Yu's tribe, and there were no Di people.

Fu Xiong was as slippery as a loach, tracing Rushui to the west, and was about to enter Yique.

But at this time, Li Yue finally bit their rear.

The sky was extremely gloomy, as if it was destined to have a big battle.

The soldiers of the Heiyun Army were exhausted, but the opposite side was even more tired.

A few days of chasing exhausted their physical strength, but did not consume their fighting spirit. Nearly three thousand Di soldiers, with the unique aggressiveness of the Di people, set up a Yanyue formation.

The spears are like fangs, and they are lined up in front.

Those who can be left behind by Fu Xiong are definitely not ordinary people.

After fighting for so many years, one can tell by looking at its momentum that it is not easy.

All of a sudden, there was a strong wind, the vegetation in the wilderness trembled, and the flags on both sides kept rolling.

As soon as the general stepped forward, Heng Leng immediately said, "Lueyang Lu Polou is here, come and fight to the death!"

It turned out to be an old acquaintance, with a stern voice, like a tiger in a desperate situation about to fight back.

But the two sides have already torn their faces, and there is nothing to hesitate. Li Yue waved his hand and directly ordered the cavalry to charge.

The two thousand Xiaoqi changed their horses and put on a standard shock formation.

And once they tear open the gap, all the cavalry will swarm up and swallow them in one bite.

The cavalry walked slowly, trotted, accelerated, and galloped, with their spears erected, pointing coldly at the Di people on the opposite side.

Regardless of the small number of two thousand cavalry, once a charge is launched, it will be breathtaking, and the mob doesn't even have the courage to face it.

It is not impossible for infantry to fight against cavalry, and it requires the courage to face death as home.

And this Di army obviously possessed this kind of quality. Facing the thunderous charge of two thousand Xiao cavalry, none of them fled, and they didn't even shake their spears.

Li Yue secretly admired that the Di people were in a period of rising national morale, and their fighting spirit was extremely high.

The two armies are getting closer and closer, three hundred steps, two hundred steps, 150 steps...

A rain of arrows streaked across the gloomy sky, and fell accurately among the black cloud cavalry, nailing twenty or thirty cavalry on the spot, but as long as they missed the horses, the cavalry continued to charge with feathered arrows.

In eighty steps, the second round of arrow rain streaked across the sky.

The knights were on guard and dispersed on their own initiative. Only seven or eight knights were shot down.

Two rounds of arrow rain was the limit, and Heiyun Xiaoqi had already rushed in front of him.

The spirit of disregarding death is by no means unique to the Di people, and the same is true of the Black Cloud Army.

The first dozen or so riders collided head-on with the spears, and the men and horses were directly pierced, like a cloud of blood bursting on the battlefield.

However, the weight of the horses and people, coupled with the galloping momentum of the horses, also caused the spear to break, creating an opportunity for the robe behind, and the front arrow pierced into the crescent moon, making an earth-shattering roar.

The horses were fighting wildly, and the soldiers on both sides were also roaring hysterically.

Countless brave soldiers fell, the earth was dyed red, and the sky became more gloomy.

Heiyun Xiaoqi quickly tore through the defense of the Di army and pierced through their formation.

But the general infantry was pierced by the cavalry, and the battle was basically over.

If you can penetrate the first time, you can do it the second time and the third time. The next fate of the pawns is ruthless slaughter.

Sure enough, some Di troops on the battlefield had already begun to flee. Although there were not many of them, it was like a heavy blow to their morale.

However, only a few escaped, and most of the Di army was still resisting tenaciously.

On the battlefield, Lu Polou's figure is extremely conspicuous, where the fighting is the most intense, there is him.

The formation that was about to collapse, after he and his personal soldiers arrived, their morale was instantly boosted. Some soldiers rushed towards Heiyun Xiaoqi with their swords and shields. When they were hit by the cavalry, they also chopped off the horse's head and forelegs... …

This move further stimulated the aggressiveness of the Di people.

"Ho, ho, ho..."

The Di people let out short shouts, and countless spears gathered together, rolling back towards Heiyun Xiaoqi like white waves.

It actually drove Heiyun Xiaoqi out of the formation.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the exhaustion of war power.

After chasing Fu Xiong for so many days, the people were tired, and the horses were even more tired, and this season was the time when the horses were fattened up in autumn.

"But with me, Lu Polou, here, don't even think about passing by!" Lu Polou drove his horse to the front of the formation, and the horsemen stood up, raised their long spears, and roared to the sky.

The blood on his body slid down the horse's body and fell to the ground.

There were only half of the soldiers behind, less than 2000, but the momentum was even wilder. Some people directly took off their helmets and threw them on the ground, their hair like dry grass bared their teeth and claws in the turbulent wind, and some people tore off their armor, revealing their muscles. Roaring at the black cloud army.

"Qingqi attack!" Li Yue's face was gloomy.

Lu Polou is so difficult to deal with, people like Fu Xiong and Fu Jing are even more difficult to deal with.

Maybe the Black Cloud Army can kill them, but I'm afraid it will have to pay a considerable price.

The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Although Fu Hong is dead, the two brothers Fu Jian and Fu Xiong are not inferior to their father.

Thinking of the series of famous generals and fierce generals of the Fu family, Li Yue felt his scalp tingling.

More than 700 Qingqi rushed forward.

Cui Hong, who was standing beside him, asked doubtfully: "Why didn't Duke Liang press forward with his entire army and destroy the enemy in one fell swoop?"

Looking at the innocent eyes of his brother-in-law, Li Yue patiently explained: "How can you confirm that there is no ambush behind this army? Secondly, if the whole army of our army rushes up, the soldiers will only become more and more tired, and it will be difficult to chase the fleeing Fu Xiong."

"I see." Cui Hong is not omniscient, and he doesn't know much about fighting on the battlefield.

These are accumulated experiences.

In fact, there is another reason. Lu Polou is also a veteran general who has experienced many battles. Naturally, the place chosen for the battle is not that simple. is the limit.

Any more will trample on each other.

In the Battle of Jieqiao, Qu Yi's [-] infantry defeated Gongsun Zan's [-] cavalry and [-] infantry.

On the battlefield, you cannot win with more soldiers. Anything can happen on the battlefield, so Li Yue has to be more cautious.

Most of the light cavalry troops were elites selected from the Xianbei clan of the Duan clan, and were good at riding and shooting.

Facing the Di people who were waiting for death as home, they did not charge, just like a long snake circling around the Di people, and while running, feather arrows shot into the enemy's formation.

As an army that broke off the queen, Lu Po Lou was naturally an elite force. Most of them wore iron armor and were equipped with shields.

Seeing the light cavalry riding and shooting, they raised their shields one after another.

However, the Xianbei cavalry's shooting skills were so precise that the feathered arrows could pass through the gap in the shield and hit the face of the Di army behind.

Those Di soldiers who took off their armor and armor became the focus of care, and were nailed to the ground one by one.

The entire battlefield is like a huge millstone, the light cavalry keeps circling, and shoots feathered arrows into the enemy's formation...
