Back 070
Chapter 070, the killing array is like snow, the Huqiu in Yechuan is swooping
Mei Zhenyi's eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people. He could see the person opposite clearly. Although it was the first time he met in his life, he could recognize it at a glance. It was no one else, but his "father" Mei Xiaolang. The Duke of Nanlu was nearly forty years old, and he was straight and straight on his horse. He looked tall and elegant, and he was a bit elegant in his majesty. He was exactly the image of his father he imagined.
His father was indeed both civil and military. Just by looking at the arrow shot, the internal strength of his family had reached its peak, with a sharp whistle that broke through the air, and his kung fu was definitely not inferior to Mei Yi. Unfortunately, the arrow shot at him was actually me.
Mei Zhenyi has imagined the scene of meeting his father countless times. Under what circumstances and what should he say in the first sentence? Can he call out the word "father" naturally? When this moment really came, he found that he couldn't speak, his throat was blocked by something, and his eyes were moist. Mei Xiaolang didn't give him a chance to speak at all, as if he didn't want to hear the child opposite him shouting out the word "father".
Of course Mei Zhenyi didn't want to die. He hoped that his father could save him, but he was not afraid of death. If his father couldn't save him, he wouldn't be resentful. In the movies I saw before traveling through time, there was a scene where a hero shouted "fire at me" when he was executed, but Mei Zhenyi didn't even have such a chance. Mei Xiaolang cursed "shameless bandit" in front of the formation and shot him with an arrow.
The arrow came too fast, too sharp, too unexpected. The shaman wizards on both sides of the cart raised their bone staff and had not had time to cast their spells, but the arrow had already shot. The only one who could react and have the ability to block the arrow was Zuo Youxian, who was not far behind the cart. He looked at Mei Xiaolang and sneered. When the arrow was shot, he looked at Mei Zhenyi with a little worried look, but he did not intend to take action.
Can Mei Zhenyi survive?
The only person who could save Mei Zhenyi was himself. When the arrow shot, Mei Zhenyi couldn't help but use the method of controlling the weapon to connect the wrist guards with his body and mind. He used the magic power around his body. At this moment, he could feel that all the energy fluctuations in the air within three feet of the surroundings had stopped, as if everything was close to solidification. He seemed to be wearing an invisible thick cocoon-like armor. The cow tendon tied to his body was broken, and Mei Zhenyi's wrists overlapped and blocked her chest.
The silver-gray arrow clusters shone with a sharp cold light. One-third of the front end of the arrow rod is golden yellow, two-thirds of the back are fiery red, and the tail ends are black goose feather wings. It easily penetrates the invisible cocoon-like armor surrounding Mei Zhenyi. What's strange is that as soon as it enters this range, the arrow does not slow down, but the force condensed on the arrow quickly ripples and rushes into the space three feet away around him.
This is the wonderful body protection of the Qiankun wrist in the sleeve. Zuo Youxian demonstrated it once and told Mei Zhenyi that if he couldn't learn it, he would have no life to think about something else.
It was soon after that. The arrow roared and shot on Mei Zhenyi's wrist guard. The impact he felt was not from his wrist, but from the surroundings all over his body. Because of the wonderful use of the wrist guard, the power of the arrow exploded everywhere. A huge shock sound was heard, like two armored chariots in a Mercedes-Benz collided, and a stream of smoke and dust were scattered with broken wood chips and flying flesh.
In the eyes of the bystanders, Mei Xiaolang's power of arrow not only shot and killed the traitor who pretended to be his son, but also shot the cart, with an amazing momentum!
In fact, this effect was caused by the joint force of the arrow and Mei Zhenyi's body protection method. This arrow broke Mei Zhenyi's body protection spell, and the extremely powerful force shattered the invisible armor three feet around Mei Zhenyi, and the shock wave generated shattered the wooden cart. The flesh and blood of the flying ground was not Mei Zhenyi, but the man holding a knife standing behind Mei Zhenyi. The burly man who was still majestic just now did not even leave his entire body for a moment.
Mei Zhenyi was not dead, and his body protection spell was broken. The car under him was also broken, his whole body was as if struck by lightning. All his magic power was exhausted at that moment. He fell into the dust and lost all his strength. He could not even lift his hands. He would have died a little bit! If he had just been kidnapped by Zuo Youxian a month ago, with his cultivation level at that time, he would definitely not survive even with his wrist guards.
He fell to the center of the flesh, broken wood, and dust. Most people could not notice that Mei Zhenyi had fallen and not died. How could he have thought that he could still leave a living person in this kind of scene? The Tang Dynasty battle formation quietly made a roar. He cheered for the commander's arrow power, and hundreds of thousands of people shouted together. As if thunder was rolling from the sky, even the earth seemed to be trembling.
Immediately afterwards, the earth really trembled. Mei Xiaolang's power of an arrow not only shattered a car, but also shot hundreds of thousands of troops. This was also a signal. Wang Fangyi waved the flag in the formation, and countless war drums sounded. The Tang army suddenly launched a charge at this moment. The Tang army's formation opened like the edge of scissors. At this moment, the central army did not move, and the impact started from both wings, with a row of iron armored heavy cavalry rushing out, inserting into the two ribs of the Turkic Constitution.
The Tang army had more people than the Turks, but there were only 80,000 cavalrymen. Judging from the overall riding skills of soldiers, they were not as good as the Turkic warriors who grew up on horseback since childhood. This time, Mei Xiaolang specially selected 16,000 elite knights, formed two teams on the left and right, and equipped them into heavy cavalry. These knights each held long spears and were wearing heavy armor, and even the front of the horse was covered with soft armor that could block the rafting arrows. The speed of this heavy cavalry was not as fast as that of the light cavalry, but the impact force on the battle formation was unparalleled.
The two heavy cavalry lined up in an orderly shape of arrows, and inserted into the two wings of the Turkic military formation left and right, and they hit the person and turned over. The collision of swords and guns and the deafening shouts of killing sounds immediately. The battle suddenly started. Wang Fangyi on the left led his personal soldiers to wave his long spear and rushed to the front. The front end of the heavy cavalry on the right was Mei Xiaolang's personal guard leader Mei Gang, and Mei Yi was also holding a long spear and following Mei Gang's horse. Mei Yi's expression was a bit ferocious, his eyes widened and stared at the Turkic knight in front, gritting his teeth and not looking at the center where Mei Zhenyi was.
The heavy cavalry on the left and right wings rushed out with Mei Xiaolang's arrow. At the same time, the cart where Mei Zhenyi was standing was broken. When a woman screamed from the opposite side, a beautiful red figure flew into the sky. It turned out to be the fairy Zhiyan who had not seen for a long time. Behind her, another woman in a gauze skirt flew up, which was Mingqin, the head of the world's wonderful method.
How could Zhiyan appear here? Since saying goodbye to Mei Zhenyi, she wandered around the world, and later went to the Miaofa Sect to see it. Mingqin's disciples naturally led all the disciples to receive respectfully. Mingqin's cultivation was not low. After obtaining Feiyun's secret book, he was guided by a master like Zhiyan, and his realm was broken and further to the next level. Now he also had the ability to fly. This time, he went to Wang Fangyi's army to help, not only brought seven younger disciples, but Zhiyan also followed him.
Zhiyan saw Mei Zhenyi in front of the formation, but before she could react, Mei Xiaolang had already shot an arrow. Mei Zhenyi was shot out before she flew out. Zhiyan and Mingqin flew out of the battle formation. Three figures in Taoist robes were also swishing out of the other side of the Tang army. It was Jiyuan, the head of Donghua Sect, Jihai, Jitan, and Jitan.
Zhiyan's body was the fastest, much faster than rushing out of the subway cavalry with both wings. Even the archers had not even had time to arch, and she had already arrived above Mei Zhenyi. She could see clearly that Mei Zhenyi was not dead and fell into a mess of dust.
At this time, I heard a long roar, Zuoyouxian's wide robe and sleeves flew up from the sky, and met Zhiyan in the air. At the same time, Gu Dulu made a series of strange screams, and waved the bone staff and soared into the sky to meet him. Seven disciples of the Miaofa Sect and twelve disciples of the Donghua Sect each took magic weapons and soared into the air. A group of shaman wizards surrounded by the car and met him with strange screams. In an instant, the magic weapon at the front of the battle formation flew everywhere. It had already formed a group of battles.
The battle started first at the center of the battle formation and the edges of the two wings. The Turkic cavalry immediately activated the war horses and launched a charge, rushing down the river valley like a tide, waving a scimitar to pounce on the Tang army.
In various battle examples in the history of war, infantry formations are often at an absolute disadvantage against the impact of large cavalry, but there are exceptions, such as many battles in the Tang Dynasty, including this war. Turkic cavalry often rode horses and archers within a hundred steps, and drew their bows and swords within thirty steps, with a very amazing impact. However, the soldiers in front of the Tang army battle formation were all standing straight and facing each other, as if they had not seen these aggressive enemies.
The Turkic cavalry rushed down the river valley. Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound from the sky. Looking up, it was raining - arrow rain! The Tang army did not shoot at each other in the mobile warfare, but followed the tactics of multiple troops, 160 steps away from the enemy, and the crossbows were volleyed. The range of the strong crossbows was nearly twice as far away than that of the bow and arrow, but after shooting an arrow, the winding was slower and the continuous firing rate was limited. Therefore, it was necessary to prepare in advance. The flag words ordered the volley.
Bows and arrows are different from bullets, and they can be seen when shooting from the front. Well-trained soldiers have a high probability of blocking or dodging. However, when they are surrounded by a large army, facing covering shooting, it is only a matter of luck whether they hit the arrow or not. When they shoot a strong crossbow, a large number of Turkic cavalry fell down, and the rest of the knights still screamed and charged forward.
One hundred steps, the archers can shoot volleys! The effective range of archers can shoot through leather armor is about 60 steps, and the strings can be shot within a hundred steps, and when the opponent charges, it is exactly about 60 steps, and the Turkic soldiers are overturned. In such a tense atmosphere, they can still calculate so accurately and the orders are issued so calmly that the soldiers can complete the volleys in a scattered manner, which requires a long-term exercise. Pei Xingjian is famous for his strictness in the military, and Mei Xiaolang is also under the influence of the rest.
The crossbowmen fired two rounds of volleys, and the archers shot six arrows. The arrows fell like rain on the river beach, and the arrow rods and fallen horses were densely filled with arrows and fallen horses. The Turks finally rushed to the other side at the cost of thousands of riders. This was a period of uphill, and the charge was blocked by the rain of arrows and the fallen horses in front of them. The speed of charge was significantly slowed down.
Twenty steps away from the enemy, the archer retreated to join the storm. There was a shocking drum sound, and then more than 100,000 people shouted loudly. After a stroke, a neat fang suddenly stretched out from the Tang army formation. It turned out that everyone pulled out the knife. According to the Tang Dynasty, this knife was five feet long, straight, with a straight blade, with a slanted tip, and blood grooves on both sides of the back of the knife. The hilt was very long. It could be attached to the elbow when swinging the knife, and it was locally quenched with mold wrapping technology, with excellent toughness and sharpness.
The masterpiece of the Cold Weapon Age - The Tang Dynasty Modao! In the history of the cold weapon war in the world, it is a very luxurious thing to use this knife to equip battle formations on a large scale to become a standard weapon. The sword light is like waves and snow, like a dazzling endless sword wall. The Tang army moved, not charging, but moving forward with the sound of war drums neatly. Every step down is like a mountain shaking and earth moving.
Thinking about the time when King Du Fuwei of Wu was good at using the sword formation in the Jianghuai Army, Mei Xiaolang also used the sword formation today. The scale and power were much stronger than the original Jianghuai Army. A sharp sword wall met the Turkic cavalry rushing in front. The screams, the neighing of horses, the sound of golden steles colliding, and the friction of sharp weapons cutting into the flesh and blood sounded in everyone's ears.
Every soldier of the Tang army was not afraid, looking straight ahead without looking sideways, pushing forward neatly with the sound of war drums, and even the movement of slashing the knife was neatly rhythmic. Even if the body was stabbed by the opponent's weapons, he still swung his sword forward and stabbed him forward to maintain the formation. Someone fell down, and the soldiers in the back row immediately filled in. The sword wall was always without any gaps, pressing over with an unstoppable momentum.
When people talk about combat, they say that morale is very important. What is this invisible and intangible morale? Especially in the era of cold weapons, it directly determines the combat effectiveness of an army. To give the simplest example, there was a thin hawker who was often bullied by hooligans. One day, he finally couldn't bear it. He waved a kitchen knife and drove more than a dozen gangsters out of several streets, and cut down seven or eight strong men with daggers one after another. This kind of explosion can also be described as a kind of morale.
On the battlefield, morale is a kind of spiritual power that sacrifices one's life and stimulates all potential. It has strong infectiousness, similar to a group of unconscious hypnosis. In a certain atmosphere, even a person who is as timid as a mouse may become a killer without blinking. Successful generals are good at mobilizing the morale of their subordinates, and psychological warfare before the war is also very important. He killed the Turkic spies in the face of battle, and Mei Xiaolang's power of an arrow. The momentum of the iron cavalry rushing to the formation and shocking the heaven and earth, and also detonates the murderous intent of the Tang army.
The sword light was like snow, and the sword formation was swept by like a tsunami with a speed of unstoppable speed. Not to mention humans, even war horses were not alive. The terrible or cruelty of this formation was that there was no survivor after being pushed, and some people could not even surrender. The Tonggu River beach was soaked with blood, and the Tang army had already crossed the river, squeezing left and right to the center of the Turkic army formation.
When cavalry fights, the biggest advantage lies in speed and impact force. If the speed and impact space are lost, the cavalry's advantage will be lost. There is another disadvantage to cavalry formation. It is that it can only move forward and cannot turn around to fight immediately. After breaking through the enemy formation, it can go around and fight back and forth to achieve the greatest result. If it cannot break through the enemy formation, it will lose its speed and be compressed into a crowded space, which is a very dangerous situation for cavalry. Turkic cavalry is currently facing this situation.
It is difficult to describe such a large battlefield in words. If someone looks down from a high altitude, he might be able to see it more clearly. The Tang army lined up in a scissor-shaped formation. The iron armored heavy cavalry inserted into the two wings of the Turks. It could not achieve decisive results, but it successfully compressed the battlefield space.
The Turkic cavalry's counterattack was blocked by dense rain of arrows in the river valley. When they rushed to the high ground, the Tang army's blade formation was slowing down. At this time, the Turkic cavalry did not break the sword wall at the first time. The two sword walls on the left and right sides of the Tang army pressed diagonally towards each other. The space on the front of the battlefield became smaller and smaller, and the Turkic war horses could not charge and crowded into a pile in the river valley. Behind the blade formation, the crossbowmen were tilting their strings and still emitting arrow rain neatly according to the order.
The Tang army's sword formation pressed diagonally against the left and right sides, with double-teams of iron armored heavy cavalry. The Turkic army also launched counterattacks in both directions, and the core of the battlefield formed a vacuum zone. At this time, the sky was dark, the earth was flying sand and stones, and a group of practitioners and shamans were fighting.
Zhiyan, Jiyuan, Jitan and Jitan flew in the air to surround Zuoyouxian. Jiyuan sacrificed the Liangyi hook, and the black and white energy in the air swirled into a surging Tai Chi pattern; Jitan waved a golden pen, and a piece of golden light was like a cloud like a curtain; Zhiyan had the highest cultivation among the three, and the invisible weapon passed through the cloud shuttle and also had a touching sound of killing and killing piano.
Look at Zuo Youxian, who has turned into three heads and six arms, holding the Kunwu sword in one hand, and the sword light shone against the Chuanyun Shuttle; holding the Hunyuan Banner in the other hand, sweeping towards the golden light like a curtain from the golden pen; holding the Ziwu Pan in the other hand, changing the yin and yang disrupting the black and white energy sacrificed by the Jiyuan Abyss, and fighting against three with one is not at all inferior.
