The wind gently blew across the grass, and Aaliyah sat on her mount with cold eyes, looking at the densely packed army array hidden in the mist on the plain in the distance.
The [-] troops of King Bactria are waiting with a chilling chill. This land has been the biggest gluttonous feast in decades.
In the middle formation of the Bactrian army, the four phalanx regiments were closely packed together. The soldiers in the phalanx held nearly two feet of spears in their hands, shimmering with chills, and piled up together, enough to scare anyone who dared to Its front is the enemy's adversary.
Surrounding each large spear formation, there are scattered archery formations as guards.
The two wings of the army are the cavalry corps and the light infantry corps.Looking down from the high slope, even in the enemy's army formation, you can still see the shadow of war elephants.
The shaft of the king of Bactria is behind the phalanx, and the huge chariot, which symbolizes the majesty of the king, is extremely conspicuous.
Compared to Bactria, most of the Yuezhi's side is cavalry, with about [-] cavalry and [-] infantry armed with long shields and daggers.
In this battle, Wusun, an ally of the Yuezhi tribe, also sent [-] bow cavalry to join the battle as a support.
As the sun rose, the mist between the two armies gradually dissipated, and the vision became extremely clear.
With the sound of a horn in the distance, the Bactrian army finally started to move.The spear infantry formation, the invincible formation of Alexander the Great who conquered all nations in the past, seemed to have been silent for too long, and he couldn't wait to prove his invincible legend once again, which was not a lie.
Different from the general Yuezhi light cavalry, around Alia, there are thousands of knights in heavy armor and holding long swords.Its members are all powerful warriors with different skin colors, but they all joined her knight order because they believed in the girl.
The long golden hair was tied up, and the girl drew her own sword. The sword in the stone, which symbolized the majesty of the king, was dancing for another country at this moment.
The [-] swordsmen under the high slope began to move forward slowly, and the cavalry on both wings acted as wings and followed the phalanx.
Alia understands that this battle will determine the ownership of this vast area.But the opponent has a huge advantage in terms of military strength.
Alia's eyes flashed, and she raised the long sword in her hand again, and a horn blew softly.
Just when the cavalry on the two wings of the Yuezhi were about to touch the range of the Bactrian archers, they suddenly accelerated their horse speed and spread towards the two wings, like a pair of huge wings, trying to wrap the Bactrian phalanx stand up.
At the same time, the [-] swordsmen raised their long shields and charged towards the phalanx of spears that was much larger than themselves.
……
At this moment, there are gradually more people in Tiance Mansion, Han Xin, Peng Yue and other generals are also among them.
Ying Ziyi was surrounded in the middle, and he could only hear him say: "This row of spear phalanxes is extremely deep. If the infantry fights head-on, there is only one dead end."
Hearing Ying Ziyi's words, Han Xin frowned, and said, "Every soldier holds such a heavy spear in his hand, and his flexibility is extremely poor. This army formation seems to be strong, but the real key lies in the two wings."
The rest of the generals present also nodded, agreeing with Han Xin's words.
Ying Ziyi thought to himself, as expected of a military master, he could see the importance of this army formation at a glance.
At the beginning, Alexander the Great swept the nations with the Macedonian phalanx, but his successors stood still and were eventually replaced by Rome.
"The most important thing about this army formation is the cooperation between the two wings and the center formation. Once the cavalry regiments on the two wings are destroyed, the isolated and huge spear phalanx will become extremely bloated."
"His Royal Highness, the Xiongnu's information has been sent."
At this time, a counselor entered the house with a silk slip.
Everyone ignored the gossip, and turned their attention to the Huns' war.
……
On the battlefield, the fronts of the two armies were completely stalemate.
The four spear phalanxes in the center have all been put into battle. Bacteri suppressed the king when he wanted to use the cavalry on his two wings to fight the enemy, so he concentrated his superior forces. The three spear phalanxes , and wiped out those [-] sword soldiers.
He knew very well, how much fighting spirit and combat power did the opponent's ten thousand swordsmen have?Most of these are desperadoes improvised in the territory. Although the spirit is sharp, it is impossible to maintain it for a long time.As long as they are defeated, they will surely be able to transfer their troops and defeat the Yuezhi's main cavalry corps.
Things were just as King Bactria expected, those swordsmen had already shown their defeat after only half an hour of fighting.
What he didn't expect was that his wings were as fragile as the enemy's center.
The enemy had been prepared for a long time. He spent a lot of money on training and relied on the war elephant as his secret weapon. Instead of achieving any results, he was disturbed by the rockets of the enemy's bow cavalry and lost control.
The frenzied elephant made no distinction between the enemy and the enemy, and rushed back and forth in the army formation. In the end, most of them were shot and killed by the elephant soldiers on his side and the cavalry soldiers on the other side.
Although the elephant was under control, there was a gap in the front of the right wing of the Bactria army, and was rushed in by the bow riders of the Wusun Kingdom.
The situation on the left wing of the Bactrian army was not much better. Compared with Yuezhi's light cavalry, the overly sluggish heavy armored cavalry with spears in their hands was much less flexible and could not exert the impact of cavalry.
The tactics of the Yuezhi cavalry were different from those of all the tribes around Bactria. They concentrated a large number of troops, wandered between the two wings and the center formation, and shot down the spear formation in the center with a dense rain of arrows.
The two wings were already in jeopardy, and King Bactria had no choice but to send out the two heavy armored swordsman legions around him to stabilize the front of the two wings.
Aaliyah's knights have been wandering on the left wing since the start of the war, and they charged a few times from time to time, and they all left as soon as they touched it, without entanglement with the opponent.At this moment, King Bactria had already dispatched all the heavy-armored sword soldiers around him, and there were only two lightly-armored round shield and short spear soldiers left beside him.
And the time to reverse the situation has come!
The sword in the stone in Aaliyah's hand was held high, but she didn't say anything.However, on this bloody battlefield where horseshoes neighed and soldiers fought each other, every knight around her could feel the girl's vigorous fighting spirit.
The charge began, and all the knights of the Knights lined up and held the reins tightly at that moment.
The girl's blue armor skirt and long golden hair, with the impact of the horse, turned into a dazzling streamer, guiding the brave and fearless knight behind.
Although the dense array of spears was terrifying to the enemy in front of the Alia Knights, it couldn't be a threat.The remaining infantry regiment wanted to block it, but was disturbed by the Yuezhi cavalry who repeatedly charged at this moment.
The battle lines were at a stalemate, and Aaliyah led her own knights, rushed out of a hole along the junction of the enemy's regiments.
At this time, the king of Bactria also seemed to have noticed the small cavalry that had leaked out of the line of defense.
The two armies have been fighting for an hour, and the cavalry of the Bactrian army has basically been exhausted, and the rest can no longer form combat power.
Without enough maneuvering power, the King of Bactria was not afraid, and commanded the two round shield and short spear regiments beside him to line up to meet the impact of this cavalry.
