Chapter 4427 Charge into battle
Fang Jun took the lead with his horse, his horse was flying up and down, and there was no enemy left. Behind him, more than a thousand cavalry followed closely, like a torrent of iron armor cutting through the rebels, invincible.
During the galloping and fighting, sweat mixed with rain had already soaked the inner clothes of the armor. My heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand. It was beating faster and faster, breathing was getting harder and harder, and the speed of the war horse under me was also not as fast as before. He opened his mouth wide and breathed rapidly.
He is the arrowhead of the entire army, responsible for drilling through the enemy's formation, and expends the most physical energy. Therefore, his bravery gradually feels unsustainable, but at this moment, he does not dare to stop even half a step, because once he stops, The cavalry's mobility will be lost, and the rebels will be surrounded like a tide, wrapped in three layers inside and three outside, making it difficult to escape.
However, manpower sometimes runs out, and horse power sometimes runs out. When the physical strength is exhausted, isn't it the time when we are trapped in a tight siege?
Fang Jun tightened his grip on the horse, sweat, rain, and blood mixed in his palms. He looked up at the densely packed rebels in front of him under the dark curtain of rain, and then looked back at Wudemen where the fierce battle was going on. He figured out the direction and shouted: " Come with me!”
With a clamp on the horse's belly, they rushed towards the south side of Wudemen on the west side, followed closely by the armored cavalry. The whole army formed a huge arrow array, charging through and cutting through the rebels. .
When more than a thousand armored cavalry used their last strength to charge, the rebels who lacked heavy armor and spears were almost unstoppable. The newly organized formation was smashed to pieces. Almost in the blink of an eye, thousands of people The formation was cut through, and Fang Jun jumped on his horse and charged straight at Yuchi Gong.
The rainstorm is pouring, the warriors are fierce, and the battlefield is full of blood!
More than a thousand cavalry galloped like thunder, with murderous intent rising into the sky. The bowl-sized horse hooves trampled the rain and blood on the ground. The fine water droplets formed a hazy mist under the horse's hooves, sweeping away like a long dragon and digging through the enemy's formation.
Yu Chigong was shocked and angry. He never expected that Fang Jun would not spare his physical strength to hold on longer and wait for the situation to change, but would instead launch a fierce attack to defeat his Chinese army!
Do you really think you are invincible?
His eyes widened with anger, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, his beard was spread out like a skip, and his teeth were almost broken. He shouted angrily and unwillingly: "The Chinese army retreats to lure the enemy deeper! As the two wings retreat, they move toward Get closer in the middle, wait for an opportunity to surround them, and wipe them all out!”
After a lifetime of fighting, there are rarely times when you are so cowardly, but now the armored cavalry is coming fiercely, and nothing can stop it. Head-on confrontation is definitely not possible. The only option is to turn the Chinese army's formation into a pocket, and induce the armored cavalry to plunge headlong. Come in, and then the two wings come together towards the middle, trying to surround Fang Jun.
Although they are a little embarrassed, once the encirclement is completed, the cavalry's mobility will be lost. At that time, they will still be able to do whatever they want?
Following his order, more than 10,000 people from the right guard began to retreat, with the center retreating quickly and the two wings retreating slowly. In this way, a "concave"-shaped array was soon formed, and armored cavalry galloped forward and charged. , as long as you continue to move forward, you will fall into the "concave" gap. At that time, the two wings of the right guard will be close to the center, and the encirclement will be completed.
Turning retreat into advancement, turning passivity into initiative, Yuchi Gong did not only win so many military exploits with his bravery...
However, Fang Jun's goal was not Yu Chigong at all. Just one step away, he fell into the pocket of the "concave" formation. He suddenly pulled away, turned his horse's head and led the army to gallop southward. Behind him, more than a thousand cavalry followed closely, following each step. The army passed in front of the right wing formation where the right guard was gathering towards the center, as fast as thunder and as fast as the wind, and went straight to the south.
Yuchi Gong, who was observing the enemy's formation, thought that he would be sure to surround Fang Jun this time. Unexpectedly, Fang Jun ignored his encirclement and actually escaped first, which was far beyond his expectation.
The armor of men and horses brings the most powerful protection, but it also makes the armored cavalry almost exhausted. How many times can a charge like this be launched?
Once the men and horses are exhausted and the maneuverability decreases, the impact will be greatly weakened. What else will be used to stir up trouble on the battlefield?
However, the next moment, when he saw the armored cavalry sweeping towards the south like a strong wind, he suddenly changed his face and turned pale with fright. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "The right wing stopped moving towards the center, turned on the spot, and rushed to Zhao's aid." Virtue Palace!”
The right-wing soldiers who were moving closer to the center were startled by the armored cavalry who feinted a shot. With the opponent's impact, once they chose themselves as the target of the attack, they could not stop them. They could only be rushed to pieces and corpses. Hengzhenji, the morale of the army was unstable, the troops in front were eager to escape, and the formation was scattered.
At this time, I didn’t dare to disobey Yuchi Gong’s order. However, the flanking troops of more than 2,000 people heard the order at different times. In addition, the previous formation had been scattered. At this time, the outermost troops continued to move closer to the center. Yuchi Gong's troops who were closer began to move outward, and the two sides suddenly met in one place, causing chaos.
The chaotic flanking troops were not only unable to execute Yuchi Gong's order to rush south to aid Zhaode Palace, but even blocked the advance route of Yuchi Gong's central army. If they wanted to rush to Zhaode Palace, they had to either wait for the flanking troops to reorganize their formation, or bypass it. Chaotic flanking forces...
However, the situation on the battlefield can only change in an instant. How can we allow so much time?
The iron hooves trampled the rain and blood on the ground. The war horses opened their mouths and panted desperately to squeeze out the last strength. The soldiers pressed their bodies against the horses' backs and ignored the oncoming wind and rain. More than a thousand people rushed forward, rushing towards Zhao Zhao like a broken bamboo. Virtue Palace.
Blocking between Zhaode Hall and Wude Hall is the position composed of the direct line led by Li Daozong and the "Yuan Cong Forbidden Army". Li Daozong was stationed here, which could not only ensure the safety of Zhaode Hall, but also support the troops attacking Wude Hall at any time, allowing them to advance, attack, and retreat to defend.
However, the terrain here is relatively open. There are no other palace buildings between Zhaode Hall and Wude Hall, nor is there an imperial garden with a rockery pool. Previously, Fang Jun's armored cavalry charged and tortured them and suffered heavy losses. Later, they were passively followed. Behind the armored cavalry, to avoid being detoured to the back of Zhaode Hall, they were exhausted and embarrassed.
As a result, they had just returned to the north of Zhaode Hall. They had not yet established their positions and lined up their troops. The soldiers had not even had time to take a breath. The sound of hooves in front of them was like thunder, and a torrent of armor suddenly appeared in the rain. It was like a violent advance, and the armored cavalry came again. Got it...
Li Daozong never expected that Fang Jun would use such tactics since Fang Jun had turned around. The armored cavalry was already very maneuverable and would never be trapped in a certain place on the battlefield. It is random maneuvering and galloping, but although such tactics are full of mobility, it extremely consumes the physical strength of the soldiers and war horses. Once the physical strength is exhausted, they can only be slaughtered. The current situation is in Wudedian's advantage. They only need to wait for Li Jing and Xue Wanche's troops to enter the city. Why use the last of their strength to take risks and make desperate moves?
Furthermore, Yu Chigong's right guard was standing between Li Daozong and Wudemen. If Fang Jun wanted to make a comeback, he would have to penetrate Yuchi Gong's position first. But how could Yuchi Gong be such a good person? He was afraid that before he could rush to his side, he would be trapped in the right guard's position.
Unexpectedly, not only did Fang Jun come, but Yu Chi Gong didn't even have time to block him... What on earth was this Yu Chi Gong doing? !
The situation no longer allowed Li Daozong to think too much. He quickly ordered his troops to gather in the middle. The impact of the armored cavalry was too terrifying. He could only resist the enemy's impact by increasing the thickness of the position. Otherwise, once the enemy found it, He dug through the weak points of the position, and then charged back and forth. Even if he had twice as many troops, he would still be unable to reverse the defeat.
Especially since Zhaode Hall is right behind him. If the armored cavalry penetrates the position and attacks Zhaode Hall, the consequences will be disastrous...
"Boom!" The armored cavalry was like a huge arrow slamming into the enemy formation. Fang Jun took the lead, with his own soldiers guarding the left and right, forming a cluster of huge "arrows" and violently smashing the enemy's formation. The formation was torn apart, and the armored cavalry behind them followed one after another, rushing into the enemy's position along the torn gap. The torrent of iron armor was violent, ferocious, and unstoppable.
Li Daozong drew out his horizontal sword and shouted loudly: "Hold it! Hold it! Anyone who dares to step back even half a step without permission will be killed without mercy!"
The charge of the armored cavalry was indeed unstoppable, with the effect of causing landslides and earth-shattering, and the casualties it brought to his subordinates were too tragic. However, he was now standing in front of Zhaode Hall and did not dare to retreat even half a step. However, he also knew that the armored cavalry was at the end of its attack after charging for so long. As long as he blocked the opponent's charge, the opponent would probably be exhausted and unable to make an inch forward. What's more, although he didn't know why Yuchi Gong allowed the armored cavalry to easily Breakthrough, but they must adjust their formation at this moment. They are on the way to reinforce. When the time comes, they will attack from the front and back, and they will be able to annihilate the armored cavalry in one fell swoop.
In particular, Fang Jun is leading the charge. If he can be captured or killed, it will definitely severely damage the morale of the Youtun Guards, or he may be able to take advantage of the situation and attack Wude Palace in one fell swoop...
This is often the case on the battlefield. The fighter planes change rapidly. It may seem that the last battle is on the verge of despair, but it may also be possible to win with a single blow. There is no insurmountable gap between life and death, victory and defeat.
The armored cavalry also knew that they and their horses were about to run out of energy, so they gritted their teeth, tensed their wills, and used all their strength to complete the charge. Moreover, as the coach, Fang Jun was always charging ahead, bravely championing the charge. The three armies naturally gave endless encouragement to the soldiers under their command. Facing the enemy's increasingly shrinking formation, they were unafraid and charged bravely. They tore the enemy's formation apart abruptly and were about to penetrate the enemy's formation.
Li Daozong's eyes were about to burst, and without any further hesitation, he slapped his horse and wielded his sword, leading his troops to join the battle and block the charging Fang Jun head on.
Fang Jun is an arrow. As long as he is blocked, it will be difficult for the armored cavalry to advance. The surrounding troops will immediately shrink back and trap him, leaving him to be slaughtered... (End of Chapter)
