Horse on the World

Chapter 790 The Battle of the Dead
The sentry cavalry sent by Lu Dabing to investigate finally did not have time to inform Tian Xinyu. Tian Xinyu's troops had just arrived in Kangzhuang, and they collided head-on with Lu Fengchun's vanguard cavalry. Seeing the galloping cavalry, Tian Xinyu's expression changed , The expressions of all the Tianbe soldiers changed.

When infantry and cavalry fight, they have to form a tight formation and rely on equipment to withstand the opponent's impact. But now, the entire team of Tian Xinyu's department has stretched into a long queue, and the baggage carts dragging the equipment are even worse. Still dragging behind.

The situation was extremely critical. If he fought head-on with the opponent's cavalry in this way, then Tianbe would inevitably be unable to avoid the fate of the entire army's destruction.

"Array, array!" Tian Xinyu shouted hoarsely.

On the battlefield, sometimes an accidental event will change the whole situation of the battle. If Tianbu moves a little slower, he will appear in this place after the cavalry passed by. The problem is that they came quickly, but Lu Bu's actions A bit slow, Lu Fengchun firmly believed that his direct troops could withstand Lu Dabing's blow, and wanted to give Lu Dabing a head-on blow at the last moment, the two sides' thoughts were left and right, resulting in a head-on collision.

"This won't work!" Tian Xu grabbed Tian Xinyu, who was red-eyed anxiously, "Xinyu, I'll lead a unit to intercept and buy time for the main force. You quickly line up and block Lu Fengchun right here to win over Lu Dabing. After defeating Lu Zhaoting over there, come to the rescue."

"No, Uncle Xu, I'll stop it." Tian Xinyu yelled, he knew that whoever tried to stop him would be sent to a dead end.

Tian Xu smiled, "Xinyu, what nonsense are you talking about? You are the commander-in-chief of an army, how can you leave your post so lightly? Your duty is here, and I am already old. Even if you die here, there is nothing to say. You are still young. , remember, hold on until Lu Dabing comes over."

Tian Xu turned his horse's head and shouted: "First Wing, follow me!"

Seeing Tian Xu rushing forward with more than a thousand soldiers shouting, Tian Xinyu's eyes blurred all of a sudden, "Array."

The soldiers who had arrived quickly lined up in a neat formation, and the baggage vehicles behind them rushed here quickly while the soldiers were running desperately.

Seeing the Dingzhou soldiers suddenly appearing in front of him, Lu Fengchun almost thought that his eyes were blurred. How could there be a large number of Dingzhou infantry here?Lu Dabing has pure red cavalry in his hands, and he is now fighting fiercely with Zhaoting's troops in the area of ​​Xiao'er River, why there are Dingzhou troops here, in an instant, countless thoughts turned in Lu Fengchun's mind.

No matter where this Dingzhou soldier came from, one thing is for sure. This Dingzhou soldier definitely wanted to insert himself from the flank and hit him by surprise when he was fighting fiercely with Lu Dabing. The two sides could collide here. , no matter what the reason is, it is a blessing in misfortune, but now my biggest problem is to defeat this Dingzhou army in the shortest possible time and then enter the main battlefield, otherwise, the cavalry on my son's side may be able to resist the opponent It takes half a day or even a day, but it will definitely not be the opponent of the other side. The gap in the combat power of the cavalry of the two sides has been clearly revealed in the mutual suppression of the scouts these days.

The opponent has just arrived and has not yet completed the final formation. For the cavalry, there is no better opportunity than this.

"Rush forward and defeat them!" Lu Fengchun roared and ordered.

Under the leadership of Tian Xu, the infantry on the first wing adjusted their formation as much as possible while running. A phalanx of 300 people was formed while running forward. Lu Fengchun was amazed to complete such a difficult formation integration while running. This is definitely an elite army. If they let their main force complete the assembly and form a battle formation, he will completely break it. I don't know how long it will take.

Looking at the surrounding terrain, the frown deepened. The terrain here is not particularly suitable for cavalry combat. The terrain is narrow. Except for the avenue that is advancing, the roads on both sides are rugged, and it is impossible for cavalry to charge up. When the opponent hits, the horse's leg will be broken first.And the only road was firmly blocked by the opponent's phalanx of 300 people at this moment.

"When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!" Lu Fengchun shouted, "Rush them down!" Dozens of cavalrymen brandished their swords, raised their horse speed to the highest speed, and rammed head-on at the Dingzhou infantry standing upright on the road like a mountain.

With a sharp whistle, the soldiers in the first and second rows stood up on the ground with the tails of their spears at the same time. The cavalry who came, everyone knows that when the cavalry rushed up, there were almost no survivors in the first two rows of soldiers without the cover of the chariot, but they still stood firm. Their task was to slow down the speed of the opponent. Fight for the opportunity to kill the enemy for the comrades in the back.

With a bang, the galloping horse ran into the protruding long spear without any choice. The knight on the horse was thrown high and fell heavily to the ground, while the protruding spears in the first two rows were also aligned. All of them were broken, and the soldiers holding the spears either had their tendons broken or their bones were broken under the violent impact, or they flew high, and some people fell from the air from time to time.

The cavalry from behind were still rushing forward, but hindered by the dead horses and corpses in front, their speed had inevitably slowed down. The soldiers in the first formation let out a roar, jumped over the corpses of their comrades, and rushed forward. , got into the horse from among them.

The originally relatively wide road was crowded with war horses and soldiers. Although the speed of the impact was successfully contained, the soldiers on the horse still had a commanding advantage. In the fight between the two sides, they had the upper hand. In the queue in the second row, staring at the fewer and fewer soldiers in the first row, he suddenly raised his saber in his hand and shouted: "For the country to be benevolent, today is the second row, follow me!" Charge, the third formation, intercept on the spot, Dingzhou Army, Wansheng!"

Tian Xu charged forward on his horse.

Behind him, the three hundred soldiers of the second formation shouted and rushed up after Tian Xu.The rough roads on both sides of the road are natural obstacles for the cavalry, but there is no restraint for the infantry. The three hundred soldiers of the second formation crossed the battlefield in front and penetrated deeply into the center of the cavalry from the two flanks.

Tian Xu rode his horse and rushed into the opponent's cavalry. He raised the saber high and fell heavily, cutting the head of an enemy cavalry in front of him with his helmet in half. He retracted the sword and swept it across. A cavalryman swept out and fell to the ground. He just yelled a few times before being trampled silently by countless cavalry hooves.

This was an asymmetrical battle. The Dingzhou infantry used their own flesh and blood to fight against the opponent's iron cavalry. They couldn't cut anyone, so they stabbed the horse's belly, chopped off the horse's legs, or jumped up, and the cavalry who hugged the horse fell to the ground together. Roll into a ball until it is trampled silently by countless horseshoes or human feet.

A Dingzhou soldier fell down. The moment he fell down, he lost one arm, but the knife in the other hand cut off the hoof of the horse. The horse wailed and fell to the ground. With a smug smile on the opponent's face, before he could react, a spear was inserted into his chest and abdomen immediately.

Another Dingzhou soldier fell down. He was shot in the chest and abdomen. When the opponent was about to draw back the spear, he threw away his saber and grabbed the spear tightly with both hands. When the opponent grabbed it back forcefully, a long knife slammed He cut off his arms from the ground, and the howling cavalryman didn't suffer for a long time, because another man stabbed him in the waist and eyes from the crowd, and blood spurted out wildly.

The same scene where life is exchanged for life, even death will bite you, can be seen everywhere. Two infantry in an array of 300 people are stuck on this road to death the long dragon-like cavalry team.

Lu Fengchun's hands were trembling. This was the first time he fought Dingzhou infantry. Although he had confronted Dingzhou soldiers before, they were all cavalry battles. The victory and defeat were decided very quickly. This is the first time he has seen a battle with a strong body against the cavalry, which was resisted by inferior troops.

Now he finally understood why Dingzhou soldiers were able to defeat the iron-shoeed barbarian cavalry and destroy the country in just a few years. What kind of courage is needed for this!

Lu Fengchun never wanted such a scene to happen to him, but now he has no choice, either rush over, or wait for him to fail.

Tian Xu's body was covered in blood, and he couldn't tell whether it was his own or his opponent's. The helmet was nowhere to be found. It was picked up by an enemy general with a spear. As for that guy, he had already reported to the Hall of Hell.He was stabbed in the side and several times in the back, but every time the opponent injures him, the price is to lose his life.

Going upstream, Tian Xu actually pushed forward step by step with difficulty among the opponent's horses.He who was fighting fiercely seemed to have forgotten the pain and death, and he had nothing in his eyes except the enemy.

After the sound, the sharp whistle sounded again, and the third row of [-] infantry began to move forward. Hearing the whistle, Tian Xu felt a pain in his heart, knowing that the first and second rows were basically left at this time. It's running out, but they've bought time for a stick of incense so far.

After slashing an enemy general, Tian Xu looked back in his busy schedule. In the distance, a semi-circular crescent formation had begun to take shape. Chariots were being assembled one after another, and scorpion cannons were being mounted. At the same time, more and more soldiers came rushing forward, forming a queue behind the chariot formation, and on the chariot in the middle, Tian Xinyu stood proudly holding a spear with a long tongue. Behind him, a bright red fixed The state army flag is fluttering in the wind in the cold wind, hunting.

"This kid has finally grown up!" Tian Xu thought with relief.

"Attack, attack!" Lu Fengchun yelled crazily. Seeing the formation of a large group of enemy troops in the distance, he couldn't help being anxious. He picked up the horse and charged forward with a long knife in his hand.

Another stick of incense time passed, and there was no more comrade-in-arms around Tian Xu, and all around him were enemy cavalry. Suddenly, Tian Xu was shot in the vital part of the chest and abdomen, blood was flowing out, his body was on the verge of falling, his eyes were blurred, he tried hard to turn around and take another look at his comrades behind him.

"Go to hell!" Lu Fengchun roared angrily and rushed up, with a slash of his knife, Tian Xu's big head flew high.

"Uncle Tian!" In the distance, Tian Xinyu roared hoarsely, and Tian Xu's head flew up with a smile on his face.

"Dingzhou Army, fight!"

"Dingzhou Army, Wan Sheng!"

Tian Xinyu pulled up the battle flag and waved it vigorously.

"Dingzhou Army, ten thousand victories!" The surviving three thousand soldiers roared in unison.
