Invincible son

Chapter 405 404 [Torrent] (End)
Xie Lin was in the middle army, listening to the flag bearer's continuous report on the battle situation ahead, his brows were not relaxed.

He had already heard about the combat power of the Longbow Army, and knew that this was the most difficult bone among the four battalions on the Liang border.Previously, Zhang Qingbai easily defeated the Gu Ping army led by Ning Zhong on the southern battlefield. This news did not let Xie Lin relax in his complacency, because he knew very well that Tang Youzhi was not a waste like Ning Zhong, and the average quality of the Longbow Army was far better than that of the Gu Ping army. .

But he didn't expect the progress of the battle to be so difficult at the beginning.

Two elite light cavalry raided the Liang army's flanks, and were stopped by the only cavalry division in Tang Youzhi's hands, and then they didn't take advantage of the opponent. It was barely a tie.

Liang Jun's infantry formation was as stable as a rock, and the three armies on the left, front and right each had [-] heavily armored infantry advancing steadily.

Tang Youzhi led the central army of 1 people to follow closely behind, and another 5000 people from the rear army held the formation.

The Western Wu Qingqi did not dare to attack the infantry formation of the Liang army, not to mention the two spears of Tang Linfen and Gu Mang, which were unstoppable and firmly protected the infantry's flanks.

Xie Lin said in a deep voice, "The former army is attacking!"

The [-] Western Wu infantry marched neatly, holding the weapons in their hands high, and greeted Liang Jun's front line as if they were dying.

As soon as it touched it, it melted like boiling soup and snow, and a large number of young men brandishing weapons fell down.

If the confrontation of cavalry is like wind, thunder and lightning, then the fight of infantry is a burst of iron and blood.The pawns whose retreat was blocked by the comrades behind them could only charge up against the opponent's swordsmen, either stabbing the opponent to death with a knife, or being stabbed to death by the opponent, there was no third way to go.

Even if he can kill the enemy in front of him, there are still endless crowds of people in his sight, each wanting his own life.This sense of oppression is like being in front of a huge wave that is about to crash down, never knowing which one will come to you first, sunshine or death.

The roars of generals and military judges at all levels can be heard everywhere, but the soldiers at the forefront can't hear these voices at all. They only see the enemy in their eyes, and only the noise and noise in their ears. The blood in their bodies is constantly boiling. After a person, they gradually enter a state of madness.

With the passage of time, the originally distinct battle lines became criss-crossed, and the two sides fought repeatedly at a distance of about a hundred feet.The number of infantry in Western Wu was superior, but the morale of the Longbow Army was even stronger, especially Tang Youzhi's impassioned mobilization before the war, which made these young men forget the horror of death.

The battle line was advancing little by little towards the main formation of Western Wu. Even though the Western Wu infantry gritted their teeth and tried their best, they were still gradually showing signs of decline.

Instead, Xie Lin calmed down at this moment, and there was no panic or anxiety on his face.He stood on the chariot and looked ahead. After observing for a while, he said in a deep voice, "Order Leng Ziyi to lead the army to attack Liang Jun's left flank."

"Follow the order!"

The standard-bearer issued a semaphore, and at the same time the herald galloped away on horseback.A moment later, a cavalry team of ten thousand cavalry from the rear of the Western Wu formation rode out and charged directly at the left flank of the Daliang infantry.

The reason why Xie Lin didn't press the army immediately was because he wanted to use the former army to test out the true strength of the Longbow Army and at the same time find out the opponent's flaws.As a famous general who started at the end of the century, Xie Lin knew a truth. When the number of soldiers exceeds [-], there will inevitably be a disparity in internal strength. It is impossible for everyone to practice a strong combat power.

After repeated observations of the three large formations Tang Youzhi formed, Xie Lin finally confirmed that their weakness was on the left wing.

At this time, both Tang Linfen and Gu Mang were facing a considerable number of enemies, and they were unable to support their right wing in a hurry.Tang Youzhi had noticed the movement of the third cavalry from Western Wu early on, but what was strange was that he didn't respond. He just watched the cavalry rush towards the slightly chaotic formation on the right.

At this moment, Western Wu's superiority in military strength was fully demonstrated, and the skill of attacking with tens of thousands of riders at every turn could be called heroic.

The horses are galloping on the plain, and the sound of horseshoes is as continuous as thunder in spring.Although it was still a light cavalry, the scene of thousands of horses galloping was magnificent, especially Leng Ziyi, the chief ten thousand who rushed to the front, was mighty and majestic, like a god descending from the earth.He was a tall man, and he was covered in armor. Even the horse's head was covered with a layer of leather armor. The weight was self-evident. Fortunately, the horse under his crotch was called a steed, and it was able to maintain an astonishing high speed.

The infantry on Daliang's right wing was led by Commander Hong Wu. He had a stern face, his brows slightly frowned, and he roared resolutely: "The front army shrinks! The spears on the right line up! The archers shoot three rounds!"

Even though the strength of the five thousand heavily armored infantry was slightly weaker, it was only relatively speaking, and it was far from being panicked immediately when facing the cavalry charge.

The soldiers stabilized their formation according to the orders of their respective commanders. When the Western Wu cavalry rushed up, all the infantry standing on the right stretched out their spears at the same time.

The tip of the spear was extremely sharp, as if piercing into tofu. It pierced through the first wave of Western Wu army horses rushing up. At the same time, the archers behind kept throwing feather arrows, trying their best to cover the Western Wu cavalry behind.

When the cavalry charging at high speed stepped into the formation regardless of life and death, the pikemen could only cause effective damage, but they could not stop the torrent.

For a while, the neighing of war horses and the miserable howls of soldiers were intertwined, the soil was gradually stained reddish brown, the blood could not coagulate, the soldiers kept falling, and the mottled sunlight shone on them, drawing a tragic picture .

Hong Wu gritted his teeth and came to the right, and personally photographed a Western Wu cavalryman from his horse, and then stepped on the opponent's heart.The man suddenly sprayed a cloud of blood mist, staring at Hong Wu with round eyes, he continued to pounce on the next target without realizing it, and at the same time kept shouting to boost morale, which was able to block the impact of the Western Wu cavalry.

Under the banner of the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army, a counselor said anxiously: "Master Hou, the situation on the right wing is unstable, do you want to send reinforcements?"

Tang Youzhi shook his head and said, "No need."

The counselor's lips moved, but he didn't dare to persuade him any more.He was worried that if the formation on the right was overwhelmed, it would definitely affect the other two large formations. Coupled with Western Wu's superiority in troops, the consequences would be unimaginable.But he also knew that although Tang Youzhi was usually gentle, he could not tolerate any doubts and disobedience on the battlefield.

Of course Tang Youzhi knew what the counselor was thinking, and his eyes suddenly turned to the northeast.

At this moment, dust and smoke rose in the distance, like a whirlwind, and even on the battlefield where the shouts shook the sky, the sound of horseshoes like rain could be heard, and a powerful cavalry urged the horses to gallop.

The leader is Pei Yue, and behind him is Jia Cheng who is carrying the banner of Pei.

Chen Xianda, Shang Yu, Meng Longfu and Fu Hongzhi each led a part of the cavalry, followed closely behind Pei Yue, bypassed the area where Gu Mang was located with lightning speed, and charged fiercely from the side and rear. Western Wu cavalry led by Leng Ziyi.

Like an unstoppable torrent sweeping through the world!
