Chapter 705 (1/2)
It is said that after emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, even four imperial horses with the same coat color could not be found. It can be seen that the material resources in the early Han Dynasty were so scarce that the Han Army had few cavalry, which was why they were besieged by Xiongnu.
Li Ling led the 5000 Han army out of the frontier. He was also surrounded and killed by tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry, and was finally captured.
The cavalry has strong mobility, while the infantry is weak. Therefore, the cavalry can often trap the infantry by means of a great detour. Even if the infantry wants to surround the cavalry, they are often forced to break through by the cavalry.
Although Zhou Yu took advantage of Cao Ren's mentality of belittling the enemy, he first ordered Xu Sheng to stick to it, then ordered Huang Gai and Tai Shici to lead their troops to arrive in time. Finally, he surrounded Cao Ren and Shi Huan and surrounded the cavalry with infantry. It is really rare in the world.
”Order! Wipe out Cao's army. ”
”Wipe out Cao's army!”
”Wipe out Cao's army!”
Zhou Yu yelled, and the guards around him yelled. It was as if a bit of rain fell into the water, and the ripples spread out in an instant. With Zhou Yu as the center, more and more Jiangdong troops were shouting, and finally 17000 Jiangdong troops were all shouting ”annihilation of Cao army”.
One thousand and four hundred horsemen were shivering and looking at each other.
”Forward!”
Tai Shici had a big drink. His more than 2000 Jiangdong soldiers had already made a formation. Several rows of Jiangdong soldiers entered like a wall and went towards Cao Bing's siege. The formation was uniform.
”Forward!”
”Forward!”
Huang Gai, pan Zhang, LV Meng, Xu Sheng and others all ordered the troops under their command to move forward. For a moment, all the Jiangdong troops in all directions were in motion. They paid attention to each other's coordination and kept compressing the formation. It seemed that they were trying to kill Cao Bing who was besieged.
”Hateful...” Cao Ren growled and raised his horse's name: ”kill
”Kill!”
This time, the shouts of Cao's iron cavalry were far less than before. After multiple battles, they spent most of their physical strength. They were already weak. If they had the strength to shout twice, it would be better to hold on to the blade and kill Jiangdong soldiers later.
1400 riders trampled on the ground and galloped, but this time Jiangdong soldiers were fearless. What are you afraid of? These Cao soldiers have been besieged by them. They are just catching turtles in a jar, and the trapped animals are still fighting.
”Shoot the arrow!”
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The archers in the array opened their bows and let off their arrows. The arrow plume flew out, and nearly a hundred horses fell off.
”Spearman, stab!”
The spear on the big shield glittered in the sunlight, forming a forest of guns. The cavalry of the Cao army dashed against it, causing heavy losses.
”Ah
”Kill... Um!”
One after another, Cao's cavalry continued to die and hurt. The frightened horses turned around and ran away. The sound of people's screams and the long hiss of horses, the sound of sharp blade entering the flesh, and the sound of blood gushing were mixed together. The sonata formed swept the land, and the Cao army's death and injury were more and more.
”Drive!”
A cavalry of Cao's army came forward with a flying horse. His body was low on the horse's back, and the horse's name was stretched forward in his hand. However, several Spears on the big shield suddenly pierced out and all of them stabbed on the horse.
”Herod!”
Under the pain of the war horse, the man stood up and directly overturned Cao Bing on his back to the ground. The chariot weighed several hundred kilograms, and kept Cao Bing down. Cao Bing screamed, ”ah,” and tried to climb out of the horse.
Cao Bing, an experienced soldier, felt numb in his waist. He felt that his bones had been broken and a sharp pain swept over his body.
