Chapter 101 It’s too late to leave

"How is that possible?"

Qin She couldn't believe his eyes and growled in a low voice, "What's going on? These damn barbarians can shoot through our heavy armor with a few broken bows and a few rotten arrows? Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"

A sharp-eyed knight hissed and sucked the air conditioner, reminding in a deep voice: "General, these barbarians are very cunning and their archery techniques are also very vicious. They specialize in picking our face armor, neck armor, crotch skirt and other soft ribs to shoot arrows. This is how the dozen brothers who fell off the horse were shot by them."

"General, they are here."

"They came to kill us."

Before the knight finished speaking, more knights suddenly started to yell.

Qin She looked up suddenly. Sure enough, the group of barbarians split into two had closed again and rushed towards the group of knights of the Scythe Knights in a scattered formation. A trace of ferocious murderous intent suddenly appeared on the corner of Qin She's mouth. He reached out and pulled down the cold metal mask, then raised the short sword in his hand high, and said with a long stern voice: "Scythe Knights, attack..."

More than two thousand heavily armored knights pulled down their covers at the same time, and then urged their horses to move forward one after another. The originally still cavalry formation began to become noisy. In less than a moment, the moving horse's heads and churning iron hooves had gathered into a neat rhythm, facing the more than three thousand barbarians rushing towards the front like a sea of ​​rushing.

The earth was trembling, the sky was trembling, and where the heavy armored iron cavalry passed, even the void began to ripple.

In front of the Manqi formation, Meng Hu took a deep breath of air conditioning, held up the black spear again, and looked up at the sky and howled: "Do..."

"Boom..."

The sound of hooves was like a tide. This time, when the two armies were still four or five hundred steps apart, more than three thousand barbarian cavalry had already divided into two parts, cutting the left and right wings of the Scythe Knights at an extremely fast speed. In an instant, the two armies intersected. More than a dozen cavalry had no time to avoid the frontal barbarian cavalry and hit the heavy armored iron cavalry on both wings. They were instantly hit and fell over and died tragically on the spot.

However, the heavy armored iron cavalry did not get any advantage. The dense arrows shot from the barbarian cavalry also shot dozens of heavy armored iron cavalry. The riders who fell horses rushed down at such an astonishing high-speed sprinted down the horse, and were covered with heavy armor weighing more than 100 kilograms. Even if they did not die, they would be seriously injured.

Qin She rode his horse and ran in front of the Scythe Knights. When he turned around and saw this scene, he was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he had no choice.

The barbarian cavalry is light and flexible, coming and going like the wind. Meng Hu can quickly disperse with a command, but Qin She's Scythe Knights are not good. The Scythe Knights are too clumsy. Once they start charging, it is difficult to change direction at will. Otherwise, it will easily cause chaos in the cavalry formation. Under the influence of powerful inertia, heavy armored iron cavalry may form a tragedy of collision or even trampling on each other, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

“Well…”

After straddling the horse for hundreds of steps, Qin She finally slowly stopped the war horse.

The knights who followed Qin She also stopped their war horses, then turned around, and nervously started to line up again under the shouts of officers at all levels. The more than 200 heavy-armored iron cavalry who first launched the charge also took the opportunity to return to the team. But at this moment, the barbarian cavalry that whistled by launched a fierce attack on the attendants of the Scythe Knights.

When facing the heavily armored iron cavalry of the Scythe Knights, the barbarian cavalry adopted a strategy of avoiding the enemy's edge. However, when facing the attendants, the barbarian cavalry immediately showed its ferociousness. Meng Hu gave the order, and more than 3,600 barbarian cavalry returned to their sheaths, and then flipped their hands to draw out the sharp sabre. The next moment, the barbarian cavalry swarmed forward like a hurricane wave, submerged more than 2,000 attendants and cavalry of the Scythe Knights in a blink of an eye.

Whether it was the Barbarian Cavalry or the attendants of the Scythe Knights, their formation was completely in chaos from the beginning.

The chaos is completely a chaotic battle, and the chaos is exactly what the barbarians are best at. What the barbarians are most afraid of is to fight positional battles with the Middle-Turkish army. What they like most is this kind of unruly melee. The horse neighs, their faces are covered with blood, and their rags are like wolves that break into the flock of sheep, showing their majesty. Compared with the barbarians, the attendants of the Scythe Knights are not on the same level in terms of riding skills or chaotic battle experience. What's more, the barbarians have an absolute advantage in military strength, so this is a slaughter without any suspense!

"Damn it, these damn savages!"

Qin She and the knights of the Scythe Knights almost shattered their steel teeth, but could only stand beside them and stare at them. The heavy armored iron cavalry is indeed very powerful, and is indeed the kings on the battlefield, but they are like clumsy elephants. When they meet the wolves who are quick and cunning and fierce, they seem at a loss.

You can't just launch a charge and crush the barbarians and servants together, right?

Qin She did not dare to let the knights rush into the chaos to fight the barbarians. The advantage of the heavy armored iron cavalry lies in the powerful impact force during the group charge. Once they fall into individual combat, the heavy armored iron cavalry has no advantage over the light cavalry. If it takes a long time, they will be dragged to death by the light cavalry and exhausted.

After all, war horses are not made of iron, and it will be tiring to carry weights for a long time.

Looking up at the rising sun, Qin She couldn't help but feel an inexplicable anxiety in her eyes.

Judging from the sky, the battle on the Daughter River is probably beginning. According to the agreement, the Scythe Knights should set off to the battlefield at this time. Qin She knew very well that if his Scythe Knights could not arrive in time, the Mingyue Empire Army on the Daughter River would definitely not get any advantage. After all, Situ Rui faced the most elite guards army in the Guanghui Empire this time.

what to do?

Leave the servants and these barbarians alone and go directly to the battlefield of Daughter River? Or try to solve these barbarians first, and then go to the battlefield? But the problem is how to solve these barbarians. Although the impact of heavy armored iron cavalry is strong, it does not have an advantage in mobility. These cunning barbarians will not confront you head-on. What can you do?

After hesitating for a while, Qin She finally made a decision and shouted sternly: "The whole army obeys the order and heads to the daughter river!"

With Qin She's order, the knights of the Scythe Knights turned their horses and swept towards the southward Daughter River.

In the chaos army, Meng Hu shot a servant away with a shot and turned around. He saw that the knights of the Scythe Knights actually left the servants who followed them and headed straight to the south. Suddenly, a cold murderous intent appeared on the corner of Meng Hu's mouth: Only then did he remember to leave? It was too late, hum...

On the banks of the Daughter River, the two armies are fighting fiercely.

Situ Rui's 150,000 Mingyue Imperial Army had all attacked and launched a fierce attack on Mengyan's Guards Corps.

The Mingyue Middle Army looked at the battlefield that was booming in the distance, and the Chief of Staff Geng Zhong's face looked a little solemn. He couldn't help but look up at Situ Rui's slightly old and thin back, and whispered: "Governor, our army has attacked the entire line and has no reserved troops anymore, but the enemy's army still has at least two divisions. If these two divisions of the enemy suddenly deviate from our army, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Geng Zhong's meaning was very obvious. It seemed inappropriate that Situ Rui had put all his troops into the attack so rashly.

A smile suddenly appeared on Situ Rui's face and said calmly: "Geng Zhong, don't worry, the two divisions of Meng Yan dare not detour and back. If he really dares to do this, the three divisions on the front of the Guards will collapse first. Look, soon the two divisions of Meng Yan should be replenished on the front battlefield."

Central Army of the Guards.

Meng Yan, Shi Miyuan and Pu Sanzhi all looked a little embarrassed.

Meng Yan groaned and said in a deep voice: "Is Situ Rui crazy? The three sides on the left, middle and right are all fierce attacks without any cost, with no distinction between primary and secondary, and have not left him with a little reserve force. This is a desperate move. Does he want to die with this king?"

Pu Sanzhi took out a silk trouser and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and whispered: "Your Highness, we have two choices now. One is to let Yu Longyun's Third Division and Lu Chengwu's Fifth Division deviate from the enemy's side and directly attack Situ Rui's central army. As long as we defeat Situ Rui's central army, we will win this battle. But it is hard to say whether the three divisions on the front can last until that time. This is a risk, and it is even more a gambling. The winner is only in the 55th. If you win, you will win a great victory. If you lose, you will be destroyed!"

“What about the second option?”

Meng Yan's hands, holding the guardrail of the chariot, twitched inadvertently. Even if he was a prince, Meng Yan couldn't help but feel nervous when facing such a major decision. After all, this was related to the life and death of more than 100,000 soldiers, and also to the ownership of the western provinces and whether he could ascend to the throne of the emperor of the emperor. He did not dare to take this risk.

Park Sanzhi breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "The second option is to let the third and fifth divisions rise to the top and help the first, second and fourth divisions stabilize their position. This is a way of fighting for strength. The combat effectiveness of the Mingyue Empire Army is not much worse than that of the Guards, but they have at least one division more than us."

“It’s more than that.”

Shi Miyuan said with a gloomy expression, "The Mingyue Empire invaded this time has as many as three legions, but there are only six divisions here at most. Even if the Mingyue Empire Army suffered casualties, at least four divisions or more have not appeared. If the two armies are in a stalemate, these four divisions suddenly arrive..."

Meng Yan felt awe-inspiring. He really regretted it at this moment. It seems that he shouldn't have advanced alone!

Looking back at Shi Miyuan with a look of help, Meng Yan asked in a low voice: "Mr. Miyuan, what should we do now?"

Shi Miyuan took a deep breath and said in a voice: "Situ Rui deliberately put on this desperate posture to lure His Highness to take the risk of detour, but we are not fooled by him! Your Highness can let the first, second and fourth divisions shrink the front line and minimize the contact with the Mingyue Empire Army. Then let the third and fifth divisions top up, it is best to let the five divisions be hugged into a group to form a huge circular defensive formation. We will fight to the end with Situ Rui. We can't fight, and Situ Rui can't fight even more. If his Mingyue army fights with His Highness's Guards here, he must not ignore it. The solemn Northwest Legion will take advantage of the opportunity!"
