C284 (1/2)
Wu Dun brought over a thousand of Chinese cavalry who were leading the charge forward and rushed back immediately. He ran into the Gaoguanli who was blocking them. Although the night was hazy, the light reflected off the sharp spear blade s was still able to clearly see Gauzeli soldier's face.
For the sake of this ambush, Cui Cheng could be considered to have invested all his efforts, to the point where he had basically thrown all his soldiers into this battle. Furthermore, his plan was very thorough. Not only did he want to trap the cavalry of the Han army, even the forward Chinese cavalry was not going to let him go.
Seeing the bright spear, Wu Dun was immediately shocked, and his heart instantly cooled down. He immediately understood that the Gaoguellian was trying to use her efforts to save them, forming a formation and waiting for him to charge. He wanted to use up more than a thousand of her cavalrymen here.
He immediately raised his hand, and the line slowly came to a halt. He looked to his left and right, seeing that there were no archer shooting from the dense forests on both sides, it seemed like archer had gone to deal with Yan Liang's cavalry. He raised his long knife and ordered loudly, ”Put your long knife away and prepare to shoot!”
At this time, Wu Dun was abnormally calm. There were no Gaoguellian on his two sides and behind him, so there was no need to rush forward to fight with his life on the line against Gaoguellian. On the contrary, the ordinary soldiers of the Gaoguanli did not have any armor, and only had some wood shield s, which was the perfect opportunity to shoot and kill them.
”Team one, attack!” The other squads followed suit. ”
As the valley grounds were narrow, which was not conducive to the formation of troops, and it was also very dark, which was not conducive to the cavalry charge. Wu Dun then ordered the different cavalry units to charge forward one after another to shoot their arrows, not giving Gaoguellian the chance to catch her breath.
”Pu, pu, pu …”
Carrying the huge inertia of a warhorse, the long arrow that was shot out by Chinese cavalry's strong crossbow pierced the snowy night sky, releasing a sharp hissing sound, and ruthlessly nailed it onto Gaoguellian's body. This was the sound of Arrows piercing into the human body, the sharp arrowheads pierced through the clothes, torn the muscles, smashed the bones, and deeply penetrated the human body, releasing a dull sound, followed by bursts of wails and howls.
There were also many Arrows that were shot by the arrow. The arrow blade had deeply embedded itself into the wood, the powerful force even knocked Gauzeli soldier to the ground, but the arrow's tail still continued to tremble violently, emitting buzzing sounds. Even if the Gauzeli soldier with the wood shield wasn't killed, he was still so scared that his body trembled and he curled up into a ball. As for those Arrows that did not hit the human body or the shield, they silently drilled into the ground. There were also some unlucky little bugs that were nailed underground.
”archer, shoot the arrows! ”Shoot the arrows!”
The Gaoguanli roared and ordered the archer to retaliate against the attacks of the Chinese cavalry. However, the Gaoguanli's arrows were all hunting arrows made by the Gauzeli soldier. No matter if it was strength or range, they were not comparable to the strong crossbows of the Han Army. They could only force the Chinese cavalry to not dare to get too close.
On the other hand, the Chinese cavalry was like a passing lamp, flying past the formations of the Gaoguellian in a continuous stream. It was as if they were practicing their archery on the field. Calmly pulling back their heavy crossbows, they shot arrow after arrow towards the Gaoguellian array.
Large numbers of Gaoguanli's soldiers fell to the ground, and immediately, fresh blood seeped into the snow. The Gauzeli soldier that were not hit were also covered in fresh blood, which was spurted out from the fallen Gauzeli soldier, staining their bodies a deep red.
Following the continuous collapse of the Gauzeli soldier s, many of them started to retreat. Gradually, the number of spears that stood upright became fewer and fewer, and the number of Gauzeli soldier s that slipped away became more and more. Finally, even the archer began to retreat. The great array around the Gaoguellian instantly collapsed.
”Brothers, take out the long knife and follow me to kill …”
Wu Dun, who had been observing Gaoguanli's Long Spear Array, had long been waiting for this moment to happen. The Korean Army Soldiers immediately understood what was going on. They hung their crossbows on their horses, took out the long knife at their waists, and rushed towards Gaoguellian while roaring.
Once the Long Spear Array crumbled, the Gauzeli soldier who had lost protection was like a flock of sheep. Under the cavalry's attacks, they could only suffer the fate of being slaughtered. The Korean Army Soldiers waved their blades crazily and chopped off the head of the Gaoguellian like cutting a watermelon.
The panicking Gauzeli soldier rushed to the back, crashing into the southern side of the great array of Gaoguellian. This was the main force of the Gaoguellian, and it was they who were surrounding and blocking Yan Liang's great cavalry, both sides were fighting to the death, but suddenly, they were struck by the defeated soldiers, causing the great array of the Gaoguellian to instantly fall into disorder.
Wu Dun immediately slashed and killed a few Gauzeli soldier s, leading more than a thousand cavalrymen into the great formation of the Gaoguellian. The Gaoguellian had already fled in all directions, and would slash every step they took. In the midst of the chaotic battle, he suddenly saw Chinese cavalry rushing towards him and could not help but be overjoyed.
”Master Yan Liang, master Yan Liang.”
As Wu Dun charged forward, he shouted at the same time. He had already heard Yan Liang's shouts, and hoped to rush forward to meet up with him. At this time, quite a few Chinese cavalry s had already rushed over. Hearing Wu Dun's shouts, the Chinese cavalry s gradually approached him.
