Chapter 452: A crushing defeat
Guan Shan, the leader of the Eagle Bandits, chose the right time.
The attack was aimed directly at the vital point.
After seeing the flag of the Eagle Bandit, the unsuspecting Ren Duozhong thought that strong reinforcements had arrived and the outcome of this war was determined, so he actually sent his softest belly in front of Guan Shan.
When he discovered that the target of the surging Eagle Thief Cavalry was not An Xuan's barbarians but himself, it was already too late.
His cavalry and An Xuan were entangled in a desperate fight,
And the infantry he relied on for the final blow were mobilizing their formations on a large scale. The originally tight military formation completely dispersed, and a group of A group of infantrymen are rushing to the location indicated by the Chinese army in a battalion-level unit of hundreds of people, with no obstruction or cover from each other.
What kind of infantry do cavalry prefer to fight?
Of course it is the infantry on the march!
Once the infantry is in formation, various obstacles are arranged, dense crossbows and overwhelming arrows are used to suppress the position and carry out long-range When attacking, the cavalry had no chance of winning and could only stay away.
But now, Ren Dobo's infantry seemed to be fully armed and armored, but their condition was the same as that of a marching team.
On the vast battlefield, the infantry of the Rendo tribe in groups in the east and west received a fatal blow from the eagle bandits.
The eagle thieves of today are very different from the eagle thieves of the past.
The number of personnel has been expanded to 3,000, and with the addition of some members of the Chiakiin Qinglong Brigade, the strength of the Eagle Thieves has been greatly enhanced.
The Qinglong Brigade is the essence of Zhiqiuyuan's combatants. After more than ten years of planning, on the night when Tiele was attacked, he drew his sword and struck a blow, successfully dragging the Yuan Kingdom into a state of tripartite confrontation.
It can be said that the successful rescue of the Qinglong Brigade was the winner of all plans when the Yuan Kingdom was in its current state.
If Tiele was not rescued but died at Xuanwu Gate, then the Yuan Kingdom would still be a unified country. Even if Akedun was no longer effective, in a short period of time, the Yuan Kingdom would have no control over the Beiting Protector. The government still has the upper hand in strength.
It would be completely different to split into three and hate each other.
After that battle, more than half of the Qinglong Brigade was lost. Basically all the remaining personnel who participated in this battle joined the Eagle Bandits, firstly to rest and secondly to increase the strength of the Eagle Bandits. In the future, the Qi soldiers will stand out and increase their strength.
So the combat strength of the mere Three Thousand Eagle Thieves is actually extremely terrifying.
Although there is no ninth-level Xuanyuan, there are as many as seven or eight masters at the eighth-level Xuanyuan.
Among ordinary armies, martial arts practitioners at the eighth level of Xuanyuan can already command thousands or even tens of thousands of troops. Among the Eagle Thieves, they can only play a role similar to that of a captain.
The eagle thief cut through the gap between the infantry who were changing formations.
The infantry had no obstacles to stop them. There were no powerful crossbows to kill them, and there were no large-scale feather arrows to suppress them. To the armored eagle thieves, the sparse arrows were like a The sparse spears raised by the desperate soldiers were like a joke in front of the cavalry.
Without the cover of a military formation, the infantry is like a lamb to the slaughter in front of the cavalry.
This is similar to the feeling of a brave infantryman facing a tank in later generations.
No matter how brave a warrior is, facing such a scene, the most likely option is to run away.
So, Renduobao's infantry collapsed the moment the Eagle Bandit attacked.
On the high platform, Renduobao watched dumbfoundedly as the Eagle Bandit cavalry dispersed his infantry phalanxes one after another, and then killed those who dared to resist like sheep. Ground kill.
The Eagle Thieves have rich combat experience. They can accurately judge whether those people are really running away and those people want to organize a resistance force in the process of escaping, so they often At the moment when some men had just been gathered but had not yet formed a fighting force, the Eagle Thief Cavalry roared in and dispersed them again. If this is the case, no matter how perseverant the person is, they can only give up, and instead make escape the first priority.
A mouthful of blood spurted out from Porphyry's mouth. Ren Duozhong tightly grasped the railing of the high platform with both hands, but he slid down softly. Several Balutu rushed up, helped Ren Duozhong, and hurriedly led him down the high platform, helped him onto the horse, tied Ren Duozhong to the horse with a belt, and then beat the horse and drove away.
Three thousand Balutu, one thousand was given to Ren Duobao, and one thousand was given to Pugu En. Now he is fighting fiercely with An Xuan. The other thousand, as Ren Duobao's guard, Gather around him.
Now, they ran away protecting the unconscious Ren Duozhong.
Puguen is at the very core of the battlefield.
He was surrounded by tens of thousands of An Xuan's cavalry.
His task is to hold An Xuan tightly, waiting for Ren Duobao from the periphery to outflank him, and for the infantry phalanx commanded by Ren Duozhong to come over.
So, he is under the heaviest pressure.
When he heard the change of drum trumpet, he thought it was finally the last moment, because it represented the reinforcements to resist and the signal that the infantry was about to be deployed, but then, in his opinion, Something incredible happened.
The Eagle Thief is the enemy.
The infantry phalanx collapsed.
The Chinese flag retreated.
What’s even more frightening is that Ren Duobao, the outermost man, actually ran away.
Compared to him being surrounded at the core, it is still very convenient for Ren Duobao to escape.
When Pugu En saw An Xuan charging towards him with great force again, this master who had been fighting An Xuan fiercely turned around and fled.
An Xuan glanced at him coldly and didn't bother to chase him. At this time, of course, the main force was to pursue the Renduo clan's army. Without a huge army, a ninth-level master of Xuanyuan was not worth anything. of attention.
The courage of an ordinary man can only play a minimal role on the battlefield.
Without An Xuan's obstruction, Pugu En successfully fought his way out of the siege, and around him, there were only about three hundred Balutu who rushed out with him.
Looking at Ren Duozhong's Chinese army flag that was retreating away, Pu Gu'en spat heavily with bloody spit, took the horse's reins, and fled in the opposite direction.
He was the one who contacted the eagle thief. He sent the sheep, horses, cattle and money by himself, but now the eagle thief has betrayed him. The suspicious Ren Duozhong is afraid that he will be angry with himself and suspect that he too If they turn against the water, the Rendo tribe cannot go back.
Moreover, there is no need to go back.
Everywhere he could see were scurrying Renduo soldiers, Puguen let out a long sigh.
Zhebie won.
Puguen, who knew more than ordinary soldiers, knew that Zhebie’s attack this time was united with Tiele. Perhaps, after the defeat of the Renduo clan, Dayuan’s return to unification was There is hope.
This doesn’t seem to be a bad thing. People like me will not worry about resurrecting in the future, so now, of course, we must remain useful.
"Follow me!" he yelled and rode away.
