Become a feudal king from today
Chapter 423: Car formation attacks
The next day. Read М
It was dawn.
The soldiers in the palace had already cooked and eaten their fill.
Then, they continued to march northward under Chang Wei's command.
After more than an hour, Chang Wei saw a large area of white tents.
Outside the tents, the iron cavalry of the black iron tent had lined up to wait for them, like an insurmountable wall.
"Woo woo woo..."
When the two armies were 500 meters apart, the sound of horns rang out in the Beidi army.
Then, the Beidi cavalry moved slowly, and the cavalry on both sides moved east and west respectively, encircling them from both wings, while the central army pressed towards them in a black mass.
"Form a formation!"
Seeing this, Chang Wei immediately gave an order, and the charioteer in charge of the chariot immediately led the chariot to form a circle, hung the iron rope on the chariot on the chariot in front, and then untied the horse's rope to let the horse enter the middle of the circle.
"Rumble rumble rumble..."
The circle gradually took shape, and the sound of the Beidi cavalry's horses trampling on the ground became louder and louder.
The Beidi light cavalry on both wings did not charge the chariot formation. When they entered the distance of 100 meters, they kept shooting arrows at the chariot formation. This was their common tactic. Often in this kite-like fighting style, local infantry would suffer heavy casualties.
But their most skilled tactics were destined to fail in front of the chariot.
When the Beidi arrows attacked, the chariot soldiers immediately propped up the iron cover of the chariot, and the Beidi arrows were blocked.
At the same time, the flintlock soldiers in the chariot formation climbed onto the chariot and used the holes in the cover to fight back.
"Bang bang bang..."
White smoke rose, and the Beidi cavalry kept falling off their horses.
"Hahaha... It's just like the exercise. Your Highness is really amazing. This is equivalent to us having a mobile bastion on the grassland." Lu Chang laughed.
He and Chang Wei were in the circle in the middle. At this moment, like other generals, they were observing the battle with telescopes.
Chang Wei had a smile on his face. For them, fighting on the grassland before was simply suicide.
After all, no infantry can win on the grassland.
But obviously, the appearance of the chariot array reversed this situation. Although the chariot array had poor mobility, they also had the power to fight back.
"The cunning King Yan, this must be his bad idea again." Enke, who was in the middle of the Northern Di army, frowned when he saw everything in front of him.
The chariots of the King Yan's soldiers were like barricades, so his cavalry naturally could not directly attack their infantry.
And now, the covers on these chariots were lifted, and the King Yan's soldiers were able to resist their bows and arrows while allowing the soldiers to use firearms to fight back.
"Pull up the artillery!" Enke shouted.
This was what the Northern Di soldiers fought hard to get back when Qingfengkou collapsed, but now there are only twelve guns left.
Now, he wants to use these twelve guns to blast the King Yan's chariot array away, otherwise this battle cannot be won.
The order was passed down, and the twelve guns were pushed over and aimed at the chariot array in the middle of the first row.
Chang Wei immediately discovered this situation through the telescope. At this time, the Northern Di middle army was only about 300 meters away from them.
At this distance, the artillery is very powerful.
He immediately shouted: "Mortar cover, Zhongli, Chen Hu, destroy their artillery!"
After receiving the order, Zhongli and Chen Hu immediately organized the cavalry in the chariot formation to stand by, and at the same time, the mortars were loaded with lime bombs and fired at the Beidi Central Army.
"Boom boom boom..."
The mortars in the chariot formation spewed flames, and the shells drew an arc in the sky and exploded above the Beidi Central Army.
Some lime bombs exploded above the Beidi cavalry, and the white lime scattered into a cloud in the shock wave formed by the gunpowder explosion, covering the Beidi cavalry.
The huge explosion startled the Beidi people's war horses, and the central army immediately became chaotic.
As the lime bombs fell one by one, the front of the Beidi Central Army seemed to be covered by fog, and their eyes were burned by lime, which soon put them into greater chaos.
"Attack!" The time came, and Chang Wei immediately ordered.
At this time, the chariot soldiers immediately opened the chain, and then changed the direction of the chariot from horizontal to vertical, and the cavalry rushed out from the opened gap.
They had practiced this kind of tactics many times during the exercises, and the soldiers had already formed a tacit understanding of cooperation.
"Kill!"
Zhongli and Chen Hu rushed out, and when they were a hundred meters away from the Beidi Central Army, they took the pulley crossbow from the horse's back and fired a wave of arrows.
Then they hung the crossbow on the horse's back, Zhongli waved the silver spear, and Chen Hu drew his saber and killed the chaotic central army.
Rushing straight to the front of the Beidi artillery, facing the Beidi's ten artillery pieces, Zhongli immediately shouted: "Nail the artillery pieces to me!"
Under his order, some cavalrymen immediately dismounted and rushed to the artillery, took out the iron nails and stuffed them into the fuse holes of the Beidi artillery, and used the handle of the knife to smash the iron nails into the ignition holes.
This was one of the items in their exercises after they learned that the Beidi had artillery, and it was also added by the King of Yan to the exercise.
Now it came in handy, and the cavalrymen admired the King of Yan even more.
Unexpectedly, the King of Yan could consider any situation on the battlefield. The ignition holes of these artillery pieces were nailed shut, so they could not be used in this battle.
The soldiers of the King of Yan suddenly attacked, and the Beidi cavalry on both wings reacted and immediately rushed towards Zhongli and his men.
On the left and right wings, more than 20,000 cavalrymen were aggressive.
"Hahaha... you Beidi dogs, you are so incompetent and furious!" Zhongli laughed loudly, nailing the Beidi artillery. He and Chen Hu turned their horses around without any hesitation.
They knew very well that once they were entangled, they would not be able to leave.
At the moment, we still have to rely on the car formation and the Black Iron King's tent to fight.
Returning to the chariot formation, the chariot soldiers immediately opened the chains, and they hid back in the formation.
The Beidi cavalry who followed the pursuit only saw a puff of white smoke rising, and then they fell off their horses one after another and fell in a pool of blood.
"Boom boom boom..."
The artillery in the chariot formation began to fire. The artillerymen had pushed the field artillery behind the chariot chain and bombarded the Beidi cavalry through the gaps between the chariots.
In front of the battle formation composed of chariots, the Beidi cavalry had lost their advantage and were constantly being killed by the artillery and flintlock guns of the royal army.
In just a short time, the Beidi cavalry that rushed over suffered heavy casualties.
Facing a battle formation with nowhere to start, they finally thought of artillery, but when they returned to the Chinese army, they found that all the detonation holes of their artillery were unusable.
Enke soon learned the news, and he was so angry that he almost went crazy, "Damn King Yan, damn King Yan soldiers, go and drive out the slaves and let them be human shields."
All the servants were dead, but there were still many slaves in the king's tent for them to drive.
He wanted these slaves to rush in front, and the Beidi soldiers to follow behind and attack the vehicle formation.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the soldiers of King Yan who had been hiding in the battle formation rushing out of the chariot formation and blocking the chariot.
