Chapter 183

No one left

When the cavalry of the Oha tribe charged, Mogo, however, followed him with the charge. He remained on the edge of the dense forest, commanding the attack of the catapult cart while observing the entire battlefield.

But the more he looked at his brows, the tighter he frowned. At the beginning, the Sui army was indeed caught off guard by their ambush. The entire Sui army was successfully cut into three parts by them, and even the Sui army in the central army did not complete the assembly defense, but was forced to divide it into eight defensive formations.

The captives of Goguryeo were even more unbearable. They ran around and howled like flocks of sheep pursued by wolves. Some ran towards the mountains and those who came to the dense forest. Many even rushed towards the Sui army's array according to his expectations.

But what disappointed him was that after the initial panic, the Sui army did not collapse, but began to form defensive arrays in an orderly manner. Especially the defensive array in the middle, a scattered dou was more than three meters high in the formation, and several soldiers waved on it with flags. Although they couldn't understand the meaning of the flag waving, they just looked at each time after the flag was waving, and the eight unconnected arrays could immediately make a unified march, and it could be guessed that the Sui general in the formation was issuing orders to the entire central army.

He ordered the catapult to attack the formation directly and destroy the dao Dou, but the soldiers who were operating the catapult told him that the distance was too far and could not be cast. He originally wanted to make the entire catapult to advance a little further so that he could directly attack the Sui army's central army formation and break its command.

However, the cavalrymen in the charge ahead were suddenly shot to the ground by waves of arrows, which shocked him. Although they were far apart, he could also visually detect the array in front of the Sui army, which was more than 100 steps away from the cavalrymen who charged. At such a long distance, even though a archer could shoot. However, it was impossible to shoot tens of thousands of arrows at such a time, and what surprised him even more was that such arrow rain actually shot three rounds.

It was the rain of arrows of death, three rounds of arrows, and there was a large number of cavalry that he charged. It was the whole piece of fall, and died under the somewhat unbelievable long-distance arrow. The cavalry charge that he was sure to win failed, and the Sui army's infantry formation remained unmoved.

"Take a car, attack the Sui army's array hard!" Mogo no longer thought about moving the catapult car forward. Since the Sui army formed a dense array to defend his cavalry, he would just use the catapult car to cause huge casualties to the array, causing their array to shake and collapse. As soon as the array was broken, the Sui army would be like a sheep that had lost a sheep pen in his eyes.

However, his catapult had not yet broken the Sui army's array, but an infantryman holding a big sword suddenly ran out of the Sui army's array. The number was about five or six thousand, each of whom was covered with heavy armor, and everyone was holding a large ten thousand feet tall, and they came straight towards their formation.

Under the banner of the Sui Zhongjun's breaking camp, Yu Qinming stood behind Chen Kefu in bright light armor, watching the Khitan cavalry failing in the first round of attacks, and whistling past both sides of the array. However, the infantry in his own thick armor and holding big swords had already rushed out.

He hurriedly said, "Master, the first round of Khitan charges have been broken, and our army's formation has stabilized at this time. It is a good time to launch cavalry."

Chen Kefu nodded. He refused to let the cavalry move at the first time because the first wave of cavalry attacks of the Khitans came. He was afraid that the entire formation would be messed up as soon as the cavalry was launched. Now that he had just defended the first wave of Khitan cavalry attacks and stabilized his position, the heavy infantry had already attacked again. It can be said that taking advantage of the momentum of the Khitan cavalry, it was a good time for their cavalry to be dispatched.

"Mao Yi! You lead 5,000 cavalry in the central army to attack directly and attack the Khitans' catapult positions. After one round of charge, there is no need to stop. There are heavy infantrymen left for Li Shimin. You can lead me to divide them into two parts, one to rush to the front army, defeat the Khitans' cavalry, and block the road ahead. The other part goes to the rear army, and fights against the Khitans' infantry in Lu Shishen's rear army, and snatches the rear route for me. Since these Khitans dare to make ground on Tai Sui Tai, the general will let them come and go today."

For Chen Kefu, whether Goguryeo invites Khitans to come or Khitans to come on their own initiative, this is something that cannot be tolerated. Today, we must teach these people a lesson so that we can kill a warning to the surrounding tribes.

The formation has stabilized now, and the Khitans have only more than 10,000 cavalry, and he has more than 30,000 soldiers and horses. He has enough confidence to annihilate this Khitan cavalry.

Mao Yi and others had been waiting for this order for a long time. When they heard the order, they hurriedly took it happily. They turned around and jumped onto the horse, issued an order to the commander, and began to assemble the cavalry in the formation. This time, Chen Kefu had not many cavalry around him, with only more than 6,000 cavalry in total, and 500 people were cut off from the front army.

The messengers waved their red and blue flags, and soon the cavalry gathered in the eight formations came out across the formation and gathered together. Along the way, whether it was the captives of Goguryeo or the small cavalry of Khitan, they were not confused and headed straight for the way.

Li Shimin's heavy infantry brigade was even more angry at this time, and they seemed to ignore the heavy armor on their bodies. They were trotting forward quickly regardless of their physical strength. Li Xuanba ran in the first row with a heavy and lengthened sword weighing fifty pounds, with a grand momentum.

Li Shimin, with his flag-holding officers and the commanders, was slightly behind a few lines and was in the forefront. The half-marine flag in the hands of the flag-holding officers drifted in the wind and went forward. Along the way, all the Goguryeo prisoners who were blocking the road were all stabbed in half.

After slashing dozens of people in a row, the Goguryeo people finally dodged away as if they saw ghosts.

The Sui army array and the Khitan catapults were only a few hundred steps away. Li Shimin led the heavy infantry to advance quickly, and he was getting closer and closer to the catapults positions.

Mogo, who was watching the battle in the dense forest, saw the fierce infantry at a glance. The uniform steps, the swords that were over six feet tall, and more than ft. All of them hit his eyes. Thousands of heavy infantry were like mountains made up of small hills, constantly falling towards them.

Moge's face changed. He knew that he had drunk the iron plate today. Under the raid, not only did the Sui army not have a mess, but he could also send such an elite infantry so quickly. If he did not stop this army and as long as they approached, his thousand people would definitely not be able to stop them.

"Take the catapult cart, smash the infantry rushing in and replace the stone bullets!"

All of those people were wearing heavy infantry armor, and using fireballs obviously would not have much effect on these people. Mogo clearly chose stone bullets. No matter how strong the armor was, it was impossible to avoid being hit by these dozens of kilograms of stone bullets. Moreover, the formations of those infantry were so dense that it was definitely several of them.

The soldiers who were manipulating the catapult cart quickly replaced the stone bullets and re-measure the distance. The first catapult cart dropped a stone bullet with a whistle under the preparation of a Khitan cavalry. The stone bullet drew an arc in the sky, but did not hit the advancement of the Sui army infantry formation, but hit more than ten steps ahead of them.

The manipulated Khitan soldier hurriedly lowered his head and fiddled for a while, then commanded the two soldiers to move a stone bullet and put it on. With a sound, the stone bullet mixed with the whistling field, and with a glimpse of it, it fell straight into the infantry formation of the Sui army, smashing the head of an infantry soldier in an instant, and then rolled to the ground and broke the leg of another infantry.

The sudden change scared Li Shimin. He looked up at the trencher on the edge of the dense forest. At this time, the Khitan soldiers who had already measured the distance were adjusting the throwing angle and preparing to take a volley.

"Change the formation! Scattered line!" Li Shimin knew deeply that the threat of this stone catapult to them. If it was a bow and arrow, they would not be afraid at all. The iron armor on their bodies was enough to block the shooting of ordinary bow and arrow, but the stone bullets emitted by the stone catapult were caused. No matter how hard the armor was, it could not block the attack of the stone bullet!

Skies, this is the response strategy of Chen Kefu's light infantry when he was attacking when he was teaching in the martial arts hall. He pulled the troops apart and dispersed them from dense arrays to loose skies. The final one should be the archers, which minimized the losses.

Now, although they are heavy infantrymen and they encounter not bows but stones, the essence of the situation is the same. Use scattered lines to distance the infantry. They maintain a dense formation, and the catapult cart hits a very huge array target. If they hit, they will have to bear casualties.

The scattered line opened the distance, and even if the opponent's stone bullet hit the formation, it might not necessarily hit a soldier's head.

With Li Shimin's shout, the soldiers around him kept passing his orders. They had trained the scattered soldiers in the past training. Although they were on the battlefield at this time, there was nothing very different. The infantrymen quickly changed their formation into scattered soldiers according to their past training. A dense infantry phalanx expanded dozens of times at once, becoming a scattered soldiers with a very wide distance, although huge, before.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"
