The thirty-seventh chapter smoke billows (7)
Just like two huge dams firmly slid the floods in one line, one thousand meters apart, both sides quieted down. At this moment, even the air seemed to condense. There was no wind in front of the position, the flags were hanging down, and everyone was waiting for the arrival of that moment.
The "Wuwuwu" horn horn finally sounded, and almost at the same time, the "Bangdongbo" war drums on both sides sounded. The messengers standing on the platform also used all their strength to wave the red flag at the same time to show everyone that the war had officially begun.
Just like the dam breaking, the torrent of cavalry on both wings suddenly poured out, the spurs hit the horse's belly, and the painful war horse suddenly accelerated, just like the dust storm rolling up in the sky, sweeping forward, and in just two breaths, the ferocious face, blood-red eyes, dazzling cold light, and crazy shouts gathered together at this moment, blood mist filled the body, limbs splashed, people shouted and horse neighed, the sound of weapons hitting the ground, the sound of swords and guns entering the body, the sound of cursing and screaming burst out at the same time. The same light armored cavalry, slashing the horse's sword and adding round shields, the battle to the death kicked off the war.
Whether in terms of soldiers and horse quality or the number of both sides, the cavalry on the northwest had an absolute advantage. The horses from the Tengger grassland were obviously one head higher than those of the Tik Cavalry. The good equestrian and archery made the cavalry of the two armies baptized by a rain of arrows before the cavalry of the two armies. Although this did not affect the outcome of the war, it had a certain impact on the morale of the Tik Cavalry. However, the two torrents gathered together immediately made both sides forget everything. At this time, the only goal was to kill the other side. The fierce fighting made Cui Wenxiu and Kadmede, who were standing behind the two sides to watch the battle, couldn't help but clench their fists and their eyes wide open.
The fierce confrontation of the cavalry first unfolded did not affect the steadily advancing infantry phalanx. If you had the opportunity to look down from above the battlefield, you could clearly see a brown and snow-white color, and the two colors slowly advanced forward, and finally merged together, and immediately showed countless dark red waves.
Because he was worried that the other party would break through with cavalry from the front, Cadmeed still lined up with spear infantry in the front row. It was not until the two armies were about to contact that spear infantry slowed down amid the officers' orders and let the sword and shield infantry surpass him to meet him. As the first scream echoed on the plain, the entire battlefield immediately became an extremely large slaughterhouse. The soldiers held their breath to make themselves the most successful butcher, but often when he succeeded, he also became the prey under another butcher's knife. The matter of flesh and blood became the most valuable thing, even worse than soil. There were no soil on the battlefield, and only countless corpses and seas of blood were swelling up wave after wave.
The competition between the cavalry between the two sides was soon revealed due to the huge gap in strength. The Northwest Cavalry, which had an absolute advantage, completed the suppression of the Tik Cavalry in just one hour. Although the Tik Cavalry showed enough courage and courage, the gap in strength could not be compensated by courage. Except for less than 500 cavalrymen who escaped, the rest turned into corpses and fell on the plain that had been soaked in blood.
Cadmeed coldly, without any expression. He knew that this result would be possible, but he didn't care. The role of his cavalry was to delay the opponent's cavalry and double-team his infantry. From the current point of view, he achieved his expected goal, and even exceeded his thoughts. He was very satisfied. Now it was time for the infantry on both wings to play a role. The red flag was stretched, and the spear infantry that had been arranged in parallel on both wings suddenly changed into formations, with the middle bulge, forming two huge arch formations, firmly protecting the main infantry formation in the middle. Archers and javelins quickly entered the battle position and launched the first wave of attacks on the whistling cavalry.
Just a few charges brought huge casualties to the light armored cavalry. Jiang Han's eyes were a little red, and he killed the opponent's cavalry just like cutting melons and vegetables. However, facing the forest-like spear infantry, the light cavalry would undoubtedly have to pay a huge price to meet like this. Seeing his subordinates become hedgehogs under the dense rain of arrows and javelins of the opponent, Jiang Han's heart was cut like a knife. Although the Tik infantry also suffered huge casualties under the desperate attack of the cavalry on both wings, the Tik infantry, which had a huge advantage in number, could fully bear this consumption, and the situation seemed to be developing towards the benefit of the Tik side.
What is even more severe is the main battlefield in the central region. When the two torrents merged into one, the two sides were competing for fighting spirit and quantity. At this moment, the Tik infantry, who had already realized that their side had an advantage, also burst out with enough courage and fanaticism. Faced with the ferocious Northwest infantry, they did not give in and advanced step by step. The Second Division, which had only more than 20,000 people, felt the crisis for the first time, and the reserve team had all taken over. Facing the Tik soldiers who were rushing onto the wildly, the house discovered that sometimes sheep could turn into hungry wolves.
Seeing that the battle situation gradually transformed to the unfavorable side, Cui Wenxiu remained silent. This was the time to test people's will the most. If the Second Division could not withstand the assault of the enemy infantry, the entire defense line would collapse, and even the cavalry had strong maneuverability, it would not be able to reverse the decline.
It was time. Cui Wenxiu ordered a direct brigade of his legion to join the reserve team of the Second Division, and on the other hand, he also ordered the flag-master to quietly shake the military flag.
A team of heavy cavalry hidden behind the right-wing Mot light cavalry was almost ignored, and followed by the 10,000 Tubu Light Cavalry. The heavy cavalry of that brigade was equipped by Cui Wenxiu specifically to strengthen the frontal breakthrough capabilities of the Second Division. A team of heavy cavalry was used as a nail to tear open the enemy's defense circle, and a 10,000 new force cavalry as the backing for the follow-up and expanding the results. This is the killer reserved by Cui Wenxiu. Victory and defeat are here!
The enemy in the fierce battle suddenly dodged a passage. Just when the Tik infantry had not yet understood what was going on, a team of black cavalry appeared in the eyes of the Tik soldiers with a muffled sound like a giant stepping onto the ground.
The three-meter-long heavy cavalry spear shone with cold light in the sun. The thick iron leaf armor and the soldiers' faces were covered tightly by the beast-face protective gear, leaving only a pair of bloodthirsty eyes exposed. The war horse under the crotch seemed to be higher than the war horses of the light-armored cavalry around them. The iron leaf armor from beginning to end covered the whole body, as if a dinosaur beast from the prehistoric land rushed towards him with an unparalleled aura.
At this moment, the blood of the Tik infantry was almost clotting and the liver and gallbladder were split. My God is the iron armored heavy cavalry! It's over, it's the Tanghe people's iron armored cavalry! The natural nemesis and terminator of the light infantry! The Tik soldiers saw the horror, timidity and retreatment in their companions' eyes almost at the same time. They could face the light cavalry because both spears and arrows could cause huge damage to the other party, but facing the iron armored cavalry, the arrow roots were useless, and the attack ability of the spear was greatly reduced. Infantry lacking thick armor could not resist this steel monster with terrifying impact. There was no suspense in such extremely asymmetric confrontation!
However, there was no time for them to think too much. Every time they raised their hooves, they rolled up waves of mud. As the huge spear was swung high, they swung down violently. The huge inertia brought by speed was accompanied by impact. The first row of Tik soldiers even had time to scream before they could even scream. The spear in their hands flew into the air. Like a sharp iron plow, it easily plowed the soft mud, and like a sharp dagger to cut open the fish's belly. The Tik infantry defense line, which was both cold and lost its fighting spirit, was immediately torn a big hole by the unstoppable iron cavalry, and the Tubu cavalry who followed him to hold the mace and immediately cut into the right wing defense line that had begun to appear step by step.
Cadmeed discovered the fluctuations in the right wing defense line at the first time, but when he found that the opponent used iron armored heavy cavalry tore open the defense line, he had no time to react. Although there was no heavy armor, the Tubu cavalry wielding maces quickly played a role in the face of this chaos, constantly tearing the hole bigger and bigger, and gradually extending to both sides. The festering of the right wing line immediately affected the operation of the entire infantry phalanx, and the soldiers' shrill screams and the behavior of avoiding the heavy cavalry's pursuit also caused the entire right wing situation to fall into chaos immediately, and this chaos spread slowly but irreversibly to the central phalanx.
Cardmead watched helplessly as the right wing front turned into a pot of rotten paste under the stirring of the enemy heavy cavalry and the light cavalry following the expansion of the battle results. This trend obviously spread to the central part and directly affected the assault infantry offensive at a critical moment, but he was powerless. Such a vast army tide, in this chaotic situation, not to mention that the order cannot be transmitted in time, even if it is transmitted, the officers cannot control the situation at all. It is better to order the assault infantry to strengthen the offensive. As long as they can break through the enemy's central army before the right wing defense line completely collapses, there is still a chance to make a comeback in this battle!
