Conquer the World

Chapter 178 The Beginning (Part Two)

Li Xiaozong's heart tightened amidst the dust and faint shouts from behind the army formation. From the beginning of the Mandu wolf with two thousand Mandu flag cavalry, Li Xiaozong began to feel uneasy. He and Mandu Wolf have been opponents for three years. He knows the disposition of the opponent, so after discovering that it is inappropriate, the first thing is to order Pan Mei to quickly withdraw from the camp to guard Qingxia, but ... It's still late.

A qualified general can roughly determine the number of enemies from the smoke rising from the back. Li Xiaozong could guess without sending scouts to inquire about the news, that Pan Mei's camper was afraid that he was already under siege. Coupled with Pan Mei's arrogant temperament, when the retreat may not still maintain the formation, under the sudden attack, it is really worrying whether that camp can be maintained.

"Zhao Sen, you take a breakout camp back immediately to support Pan Mei. You have to use your own tactics to see if the situation can be resolved. If Pan Mei can be rescued, then you must rescue him. If Pan Mei is in a difficult situation, you will immediately lead someone to tear open. In any case, keep the canyon clear! "

"General!"

Zhao Sen eagerly said, "If I take away another battalion, you will only have the strength of two battalions. Two thousand and four hundred infantry ... Mandu Wolf has two thousand elite cavalry, I'm afraid ..."

"You don't have time to worry about me."

Li Xiaozong whispered: "I said that since I am your general today, you have to obey this option in any of my orders, and you should understand that compared to opening channels for the follow-up brigade, I am The edges are trivial. "

"Oh!"

Looking at Li Xiaozong's determined face, Zhao Sen knew that he could not shake the determination of the young general. Although Li Xiaozong had been cautious enough to lead his troops out of the canyon, he still made the mistake of underestimating the enemy. According to the Order of the Twelve Army issued by His Majesty the Great Emperor Sui, if anyone has any ulterior motives to hold on, this is already a capital crime.

He didn't know this young general very well. He only knew that he was from the Longyou Li family, and was the nephew of the general Li Yuanshan. When he was in Yanwuyuan that year, President Zhou even praised him more than once. Of course, he also knew that Li Xiaozong was a man who had just been used before the war. He had almost lost his future and life.

Zhao Sen had no respect for such a young and famous general. But today, the decisiveness on Li Xiaozong's face made him heartfelt admiration.

"Take care of the general!"

Zhao Sen held his fist and turned away.

"wait!"

Li Xiaozong stopped him and instructed: "Blow the horns and gather the two hundred cavalry scattered. If Pan Mei could not rescue, you use the two hundred cavalry to tear open a hole and kill it."

"We only have these two hundred cavalry, so it's better to keep supporting the generals!"

Zhao Sen loudly.

"Yes……"

Li Xiaozong sighed: "We only have two hundred cavalry, and the baby is incredible. But this is the battlefield, and it is precisely because the two hundred cavalry are expensive, so we need to use it in the most suitable place. Go ... no matter what the battle situation is on my side , You are not allowed to turn back to support, even if I died here, I do not need you to collect corpses. Qingxia ... is your position. "

"Oh!"

Zhao Sen shouted aloud and strode away with a sour nose. After taking away a camp, Li Xiaozong's men became thinner and thinner. The opposite Mandu Wolf didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack, but watched Li Xiaozong again with great interest.

"Taler!"

After seeing the Sui Army's team go out, Mandu Wolf smiled and ordered: "Give you three hundred-man teams, do you dare to tear the Sui army from the middle!"

Called Thaler was a very burly prairie man, with a typical beard of the prairie, with a thick eyebrow and an angry look, and his voice was like Zhongming.

"How dare you, if the general would reward me with a beauty in the North Liao Dynasty, I would take 300 rides to Fan Gu!"

"Haha!"

The Mandu wolf laughed and said, "If you capture Li Xiaozong, I will reward you two beauties in North Liao, plus a cold ride from North Liao!"

"Thank you, General!"

Thaler smiled, he didn't even look at the 2,000-plus Sui Jingbing who was opposite.

"Baby, kill me with me!"

He yelled, and took off the mace tied to his back to urge the horse out. The three hundred Mandu banner cavalrymen followed him, screaming forward. It looked like three hundred hungry wolves who saw their prey. The speed of the Mengyuan cavalry is extremely fast, and everyone is a good horseman. They can even navigate wild horses without saddles and pedals, just as naturally as a Southerner driving a boat.

The three hundred cavalry formed a seemingly sharp conical array rushing towards the Great Sui Army with Thaler as an arrow.

This is the first time in more than 100 years that the Meng Yuan people and the Da Sui people confronted each other. Although the scale of this confrontation was not large, it had far-reaching significance. Whether it is Mandu Wolf or Li Xiaozong, they all know the significance of this first battle. Whoever wins will take the lead.

If the Mengyuan soldiers slaughtered the 5,000 Sui soldiers who passed through the canyon, the pride of the Da Sui soldiers would be severely cracked.

"Undefeated?"

The Mandu wolf looked at the fierce red Great Sui Zhan flag flying across, and a cold smile was drawn on the corner of his mouth: "What I broke today is your undefeated vanity!"

....

....

"Zhang Zhen, Cui Min is here."

Li Xiaozong commanded loudly: "You two are guarding the two wings, and you are not allowed to move without my military order. Even if Meng Yuan's cavalry storms into the army, you do not hear the sound of the horn, and you are not allowed to rescue!"

"Oh!"

The other two teeth, Zhang Zhen and Cui Minlai, responded at the same time and turned back to the two wings to host the battle.

"Archer!"

Li Xiaozong urged the horse to go forward and direct himself in front of the battle line.

"Arrow arrows!"

Following Li Xiaozong's order, a row of archers standing in the forefront drew a special feather arrow from the quiver. This arrow is painted bright red throughout, which is thicker than normal feather arrows. After the order, the archers in the first row immediately put this special feather arrow on the bowstring, and more than a hundred people shot the arrow in a uniform motion. Their arrow shot at a high elevation angle, and the feather arrow shot was the limit of the range of the hard bow in their hands.

More than a hundred red feather arrows shot out in unison, and after drawing a beautiful arc in the air, they landed. After about two hundred and thirty steps, a red line appeared on the ground. This feather arrow is called a dart. The effect is to let the archer know exactly when the enemy is in range.

When the horse's hoof of the three hundred cavalry jumped over the red line formed by the arrow, Li Xiaozong raised his command flag fiercely.

"First round, throw, throw arrows!"

More than three hundred archers immediately lifted the hard bow and replaced it with a costly armor-piercing cone. This feather arrow can easily tear open the thin iron armor. Unless the enemy wears several layers of thick leather armor or expensive chain armor, they cannot stop the shooting of the armor-stripping cone.

The first round of feather arrows drew an arc in mid-air, and more than 300 feather arrows smashed into the array of Mandu Banner cavalry like a hail falling in the air. The first round of ejection was a cover shot, and there was no precision at all. But this kind of blow is difficult to defend because the coverage is large and the arrow is always falling from the air. For the infantry's collective charge, the archer on the defensive side has a great lethality. However, for the light cavalry forward, the lethality of the projectile should be greatly reduced.

Feather arrows smashed into the crowd of the Mandu Banner cavalry, and immediately twenty or thirty cavalry were shot and fell off the horse. Thaler waved a mace to drop two feather arrows one after another, and the wildness in his eyes became stronger and stronger. It is obviously not suitable to drop a feather arrow with a heavy weapon like a mace, but his arms are very powerful, and a mace that is difficult for ordinary people to dance is as light as a bamboo pole in his hand.

"kill!"

Thaler yelled, and the Manchu Banner cavalry at the back roared neatly.

"Huh!"

Haha is the slogan of the Mongolian Cavalry Charge. It has almost the same meaning as shouting forward when the Da Sui army charged.

"Second round, flat shot, let go!"

Li Xiaozong issued another order, and more than 300 archers lowered the hard bow a little, rising slightly, and the arrow flew out instantly. The second order was not finished, and Li Xiaozong immediately waved the order flag: "Third round, shoot, let go!"

The archers focused their eyes on the cavalry in front of the enemy. In the third round, more than three hundred feather arrows shot out intensively. The shooting arrow was like a huge fist, and slammed into the oncoming Manchu Banner cavalry. Thaler danced the mace in front of himself, throwing away three or four feather arrows in a row, but after all, some vacancies were exposed. A feather arrow ripped open his leather armor and got into his shoulder. in.

The pain made the burly man in the steppe even more violent. He ignored the quivering feather arrow on his shoulders, and urged the warhorse to crash into the Great Sui Army straight.

"The archer retreats!"

Li Xiaozong shouted out loudly: "The giant shield hands forward, and Chang's hands line up!"

About a hundred soldiers holding a tall giant shield quickly took over the archer and rushed to the front. With the command of the commander, a hundred giant shields were poked heavily on the ground, as if a wall suddenly appeared on the ground. same. The back of the long urn rushed behind the giant shield, put the long urn on the giant shield, and the front was raised.

The well-trained Da Sui You Xiaowei soldiers completed the transformation in a very short period of time. Suddenly, the army formation turned into a hedgehog shrunk into a ball.

Boom!

The cavalry of the Mandu Banner slammed against the giant shield. The soldier who squatted down on the ground and carried the giant shield on his shoulder was knocked over and stopped by the war horse that followed him. However, the Cavalrymen who stomped their Mandu flag were also poked to death by the long urn raised opposite them. The twenty or more cavalrymen who rushed to the front smashed the shield array into a hole and completed their mission. They also paid Took their lives.

"Kill the Sui people's army and cut down their general banner!"

Half of the body had been smashed by the blood-soaked Thaler and smashed the head of a large Sui soldier. The leather helmet was smashed and smashed. The bright red blood was mixed with the white brain, and there were many mixed Broken bones. The Da Sui soldier fell down softly before he could make a shout, followed by his ribs when he was trampled by Tal's war horse.

Thaler took the remaining 200 cavalry knives and tore apart Dai Sui's shield, but was deeply trapped in the battle. The dense forest-like long cymbals made the cavalry like a quagmire, and it was impossible to give play to the speed advantage of Qingqi ~ www.readwn.com ~ Thaler battled the Sui people for the first time in his life, but it was not the first time to kill. He had led soldiers and slaughtered other tribes on the prairie several times. Those small tribes who did not respect the banner of Mandu Banner were killed. He is superior in force and is a famous warrior in Mandu Banner.

But today, the warrior finds that his energy is not enough to show.

Those abominable Sui people, their battle array seems to be a natural nemesis of cavalry! Once the cavalry came and went, the knight sitting high on the horse's back became the target of those long hands.

Thaler kept waving his mace, smashing the four long Sui people's long arm. But his warhorse only took a step forward.

Just as he swept away the soldiers in front of the Sui army, two long crickets stabbed from the left side, and with a bang, he slashed his horse's belly severely. When the horse was pulled out, the internal organs of the horse were mixed. The thick, smelly blood came out suddenly.

The warhorse slowly fell down after wailing, and Thaler's instability also fell down.

Before he could stand up, a long slap slammed his chest fiercely. He rolled sharply to get Kai Feng, but there was a sharp pain in his calf.

Thaler screamed and looked down and found that his left leg had been nailed to the ground by a long piercing piercing. He wanted to use a mace to break the **** long cricket, and his arm was raised, and then he was poked by the second long cymbal. The next second, the third long cymbal was poked into his lower abdomen, and the next Seconds, the fourth long cymbal poked into his heart.

Five or six big Sui Changshou hands around the tall prairie man who fell to the ground, keeps raising the Changshou, and then pokes hard.

After a while ... where can I still see the face of that man?

The offensive smell of viscera and the smell of feces are disgusting.
