Chapter 2095 Real or fake cavalry(2/2)
The armor of each cavalryman was stained with blood and scattered pieces of meat, like small pieces of meat shaved off a big bone stick, with various tendons and cartilage hanging on the heavy weight.
The outside of A makes people feel scared when they look at it...
The armored cavalry looks fierce on the outside, but in fact, after running a long way to come for reinforcements and fiercely charging into battle, both the riders and the horses are breathing heavily at this moment.
Therefore, when the armored cavalry hit Zhou Yu's Chinese army array head-on, the impact was not very strong. After the initial shock, the soldiers of Jiangdong's Chinese army were also elite after all, and most of them were battle-hardened.
The veterans were not so easy to collapse. Under Zhou Yu's order, they worked hard to surround them from all directions, seeming to use their lives and flesh to defeat these armored cavalry and completely drown them!
"Can't stop! Forward, forward!" Cao Xiu vigorously kicked the horse's belly under his visor, urging the horse forward. The horse under his crotch was also a good horse, even though it was already a little exhausted,
But still pushing forward with all his strength!
Behind Cao Xiu, Cao Jun's disguised hussars and cavalry also knew that if they were really surrounded, they would lose their biggest advantage, so they followed Cao Xiu with all their strength and rushed to the high platform amidst the surging crowd...
In fact, Cao Xiu imitated the hussar cavalry, but it was more of an appearance, and he did not learn the essence at all. Although the cavalry charging into the formation is extremely powerful, it will be extremely miserable once the charging cavalry fails.
It is said that after the war horse loses speed and is pulled off the horse by the enemy soldiers, it may not be able to climb up even if it wants to! Even if it is not trampled to death, even a small short blade can make it fall
life!
Fortunately, Cao Jun, Cao Xiu and others were inexperienced, and Jiangdong soldiers had no experience in dealing with cavalry. The two sides were like boys and girls without any pre-marriage guidance who were suddenly thrust into the bridal chamber for actual combat, in the darkness
I fumbled around and inserted it, each with his own pain. The feeling was always somewhat different from what I originally imagined, but I couldn't tell what was wrong...
At this moment, a huge shout of killing suddenly came from the side of Cao Jun's camp, and all the Cao Jun soldiers in Cao Jun's camp were killed!
Jiang Dongbing was instantly flanked by two sides!
Zhou Yu's heart suddenly moved. The soldiers in Cao Cao's camp actually rushed out. Seeing such momentum, the whole army was dispatched without reservation! Could it be that this was Cao Cao's plan?
Could it be that Cao Fei and Cao Fei really cooperate so closely?
So in this case, Cao Cao's army may be behind! After all, there is no army behind to support them. How can these soldiers of Cao Cao's camp who are on the verge of collapse dare to charge into the formation without reservation? In this way, Cao Cao just wants to lure them all first
River, and then when the strength of his soldiers weakens, he will entangle his own men and horses by the river, and then add a large army to annihilate them in one fell swoop!
What a vicious strategy!
What a ruthless strategy!
If this is really the case, then so far away...
Zhou Yu's face was livid, and he raised his head and looked into the distance. The distance was filled with smoke and dust, and the battlefield to the north was very chaotic. It was difficult to have a clear vision and discern more effective information for a while.
"Captain!" Cheng Pu stood on one side, frowning, staring at the armored cavalry marching hard in the center, "Let me go down and take care of these guys!"
Although the opponent was protected by heavy armor, Cheng Pu also had experience fighting with Sun Jian and the Xiliang cavalry back then, and he knew some tactics on how to deal with the cavalry. Moreover, according to Cheng Pu's observation, the martial arts of these armored cavalry were basically basic.
In general, they are all mediocre, and even the commander among them is mediocre. If he can take advantage of the chaos and hide in the battle line, and suddenly apply a heavy weapon, it is impossible to say that he can be killed in one strike!
Although Cheng Pu has never fought with armored cavalry before, according to his experience in fighting with heavy infantry, ordinary swords, guns, swords and halberds are difficult to effectively kill heavy armored infantry. However, blunt blows with heavy hammers and maces can.
It can directly hit the body through the armor. If it hits a vital part, it can also have the same one-hit killing effect as a sword or gun against light armor.
Zhou Yu pondered.
Although Cheng Pu seemed to say it very easily, Zhou Yu knew that in a real battle, life and death would be decided in an instant. If the cavalry were so easy to deal with, his own military formation would not be oppressed to the current situation.
Zhou Yu looked into the distance, pointed at the smoke and dust rising in the distance, and said, "If there are only cavalry at the moment, why does the smoke and dust linger so long?"
Cheng Pu was stunned for a moment and said, "Could it be that there are infantry from Cao's army behind us?!"
Zhou Yu nodded slowly and said: "I can bet...but Lord Jiangdong Jiye...can't bet...send the order to withdraw the troops..."
"Captain!" Cheng Pu shouted anxiously from the side. If we withdraw our troops now, we will definitely suffer serious damage...
Zhou Yu touched a letter in his arms. It was a piece of intelligence from the west of Jingzhou. He once again confirmed his thoughts and sighed longly: "Retreat the troops!"
Whatever, whatever!
