Chapter 239
Going east to east
It was dusk and the setting sun was like blood. Under the sunset, the large patches of sunset in the west were like splashed with blood, which was amazingly red!
Liaodong City, which had been fighting fiercely for a whole day, was still fighting, but at this time, although the soldiers on both sides were still fighting to the death, the roaring sound became hoarse, and the hands of the knife were slower. Even when they were running, their breathing was no longer even. Just like two equally tall giants, they had exhausted their last strength and made their last persistence. No one knew who would fall first.
The city walls on all sides of Liaodong City were the most intense battles, and the city gates were also the key targets of the coalition forces. Countless slaves pushed the siege cars and kept wrapping the broken city ram made of iron with huge logs, ramming the huge thick city gates of the Sui army again and again.
The South City Gate is the best mastered by the Sui army among the four city gates. There are relatively fewer siege troops here. The slaves who pushed the siege rams were already dead after being used by the Nanchengtou several times in a row. Even the huge siege rams had already been broken and scattered on the side.
"Thunder, one hundred volleys!"
Above the South City Gate, Wang Cheng, the general manager of the Engineering Battalion, ignited a hundred thunder and explosive packs, and then shot down fiercely into the coalition forces in front of the South City. A series of fires and huge explosions sounded. In front of the South City Gate, a large area of the coalition forces, which was already in the middle of the South City Gate, was blown to death again, and many blank areas were cleared.
Before the explosion had passed, the city gate, which had been attacking for a long time without any movement, suddenly creaked. Then, as everyone was watching, the city gate opened automatically. The suspension bridge above the city was also put down, and a wide passage was right in front of me.
Su Wotaro outside the south gate simply didn't believe his eyes. He really felt like someone gave him a pillow when he fell asleep. As he saw Liaodong City was about to fall, he hurriedly rushed to the east city head with his five thousand Japanese infantry, wanting to enter the city first. But there were too many people, and the East City Wall was already full of coalition soldiers. These short Japanese infantrymen could not even get close to the wall.
Su Wotaro, who had been unable to approach the city wall for a long time, had no choice but to rush to the other city walls. The South City Gate was already the result of him going around, but unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived outside the South City Gate, they immediately saw that the sky thunder was thrown out from the city, killing hundreds of coalition soldiers. When they were still scared, the South City Gate automatically opened.
Su Itaro's hair was scattered at this time, his eyes were blushing red. He held his big sword and pointed to the city gate excitedly, "Ah, hit it!" He was unwilling to miss such a good opportunity. This was the honor of the first unit to enter the city. Not only the honor, but the first unit to enter the city is also the first to attack the city. At that time, if you give a reward, it will not be the most reward that the warriors in Yamato will have.
Five thousand Japanese people performed extraordinary rapid reactions at this time. Outside the South City Gate, those coalition soldiers who were still in the thunder explosion who had not reacted, all shouted, and the ghost roared, carrying a scimitar to the city gate.
A depressing and dull sound rang out, just like the muffled thunder in the horizon in summer.
The attacking coalition soldiers outside the city were like a tide, but at this time, a torrent of steel suddenly ran out of the wide open city gate of the South City Gate, a real torrent of steel. The Great Sui heavy cavalry unit composed of 4,000 most of the veterans of the Pojun Camp were like thunder and sharp swords! Behind these 4,000 other six armies, there were a total of 2,400 heavy cavalrymen, but only the officers were the veterans of the Pojun Camp, and most of the remaining were the captive cavalry who were rescued back.
Six thousand four hundred people, all of which were black bright light heavy cavalry armor, black iron helmets, and even war horses were the strongest war horses in the entire army. Yishui's black war horses were paired with the same black steel vest, which was a black torrent.
In the black torrent, the red helmet tassel on each knight's helmet was particularly eye-catching. I can't remember how many times this was the heavy cavalry's charge after the establishment, but everyone was extremely firm at this time and full of confidence in winning.
A long black cloak flew behind them, a precious and extremely sharp black horse spear was tightly held in their hands, and a huge Pojun battle flag was flying in front of them!
Guo Xiaoke, the chief manager of the heavy cavalry battalion, was like the first time he went to the Yizhi Wende's defense line. At that time, he was just a newly promoted team leader, and that time was the same as now, without fear, and only the confidence to win. He followed the general tightly and fought side by side.
Finally, they fought side by side again. The last time they broke through Yizhi Wende. Then this time, they could also break through Yizhi Wende.
"The brave one wins when they meet on a narrow road! Kill!" Chen Kefu, who was straddling the green horse, lowered his body, held his horse spear flat, and roared high.
"The brave one wins when they meet on a narrow road! Kill!"
Four thousand six hundred roars sounded behind him, with an unparalleled power, and the sword was unsheathed. Facing the passage that had been cleared by the thunder, more than four thousand cavalrymen rushed all the things that still existed in front of him and stepped into flesh mud.
Since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the heavily armored cavalry troops gradually withdrew from the stage of war. Although there were special heavy cavalry troops in the imperial guards of the Great Sui Dynasty, they had evolved into a guard of honor. Before Chen Kefu's Pojun heavy cavalry rose, Luo Yi from Zhuo County was the one who really exerted the power of heavy cavalry. However, he had too few soldiers and horses, and he fought mostly small battles, and his reputation was not obvious.
Only when Chen Kefu formed the Pojun Camp, he broke through the defense line of 80,000 light cavalry with one thousand heavy cavalry for the first time, shocking everyone. After that, the continuous rise of the Pojun Camp also made everyone understand the true power of heavy cavalry.
No matter how many shortcomings the heavy cavalry has or how expensive the equipment it needs, Chen Kefu has always increased the number of heavy cavalry. From the initial three thousand to the later four thousand, to the current six thousand four hundred. The number has expanded again and again, reaching a very high number.
Heavy cavalry is the strategic weapon of this era. When a large army is fighting, when it is critical, once the heavy cavalry strikes, it will inevitably mean invincibility and destruction. As long as you choose the opportunity, select the place, put the heavy cavalry in, and kill with one blow.
The heavy cavalry has limited endurance and does not have the ability to continue to fight, but sacrifices all the ability to continue to fight, in exchange for this strongest burst assault ability. Even if it is short-term, it is worth it.
Chen Kefu had already understood that both sides were exhausted and were fighting with their last courage and passionate blood. At this time, the heavy cavalry went out, and as long as they broke a little, they could drive one side. Finally, it triggered a chain reaction and defeated the coalition's attack.
The helmet tassels fluttered in the setting sun, and the sharpness of the horse spear flashed with a cold murderous intent in the cold wind. Six thousand four hundred people went forward and attacked with three people as a character Pin. Fifty people and one team as a charge array, and one hundred and twenty-eight teams of heavy cavalry formed a huge arrow attack formation and rushed forward.
The five thousand Japanese infantry led by Su Itaro rushed towards the South City Gate. When they saw such a black frenzy suddenly popping out of the city gate with the rumbling horse hooves, everyone was panicked.
Steel cavalry, a military branch that the Japanese on the island had never seen before. They never thought that they could equip a cavalry unit in such a luxurious and luxurious manner. The Japanese had few cavalry, and a small number of cavalry were still the same kind of ponies. At this time, they saw these tall horses, all equipped with cold black iron armor, and their steps stopped one by one.
The earth is shaking, and the heavy riding is sprinting!
"Glory belongs to us! Po Jianjian will win!"
Su Wotaro finally heard a huge shout. The next moment, five thousand Japanese infantry were already under the iron hooves of the heavy cavalry of the Sui army. It was like snow, and suddenly poured with boiling water, which suddenly melted and disappeared.
Rows of Japanese people, even without even screaming, were immediately overwhelmed by this black frenzy. On the huge battlefield, there were people everywhere, and the Sui army's iron hooves did not need to be chased. As long as we move forward, countless enemies will fall under the iron hooves and horse spears.
The coalition soldiers who reacted on the battlefield kept dodging the heavy cavalry, while constantly catching bows and arrows to shoot the Sui army. Unfortunately, no matter how many arrows shot on the heavy cavalry, they turned into a jingling sound.
The five thousand Japanese people did not even block the iron cavalry, and they were already trampled by 4,600 heavy cavalry. Nearly half of the Japanese people were directly trampled to death and stabbed to death, and most of the remaining people fled in scattered.
Above the southern city gate, several scattered platforms were built up, and several messengers kept waving towards the heavy cavalry units with red and blue flags.
"Master, turn east!"
Among the heavy cavalry, Chen Kefu was also closely following eight commanders. They were not responsible for fighting. Instead, they were responsible for receiving the flags on the city. The battlefield under the Liaodong city with thousands of troops was full of enemies. Chen Kefu commanded 4,600 cavalry in this huge battlefield, which was only a small part. No matter how strong the Pojun Camp is, it is only a assault ability. If it is surrounded by the enemy's troops, then as long as the simple spear formation formed by some lowly slaves is large enough. Then the Pojun Camp will be killed with exhaustion.
