Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Nine: The Battle of the Dead

The horn of warning was the order of battle. The cavalry, who were still idle just now, had already turned over the war horses in an instant, and the scattered formations began to gather. The longbow in his hand was already tightly held in his hand. The other hand drew out a feather arrow and placed it on the string, ready to go.

Dong, Dong Dong! The sound of war drums suddenly sounded, which was a signal of the enemy's advancement. The three-eyed tiger looked back and looked at his team, feeling extremely nervous. At this time, the three thousand cavalry dragged out a formation that lasted more than ten miles, which was extremely unfavorable.

"Tiger Master, enemy cavalry, enemy cavalry!" A whistle cavalry flew back, his face pale, his lips trembled, and he barely spoke.

"How many people?" asked the three-eyed tiger in a deep voice.

"Many, many, countless!" The whistleblower looked at the three-eyed tiger, his eyes full of horror.

The three-eyed tiger's eyes crossed the head of the whistleblower and looked at the distant hill where a war horse appeared in his eyes. Then, a flying battle flag appeared behind the cavalry and led the guard! The three-eyed tiger's eyes shrank, his fingers tightly grasped the hilt of the knife, and the blue veins were exposed.

It was a banner with Liu's name as Liu, leading the military guard Liu Huajian.

"Tiger Master, Tiger Master!" Several more whistle riders ran back: "On the left and right sides of ours, we found a large number of infantrymen coming towards us!"

"How far?"

"About three miles!"

Trap! This idea flashed through the three-eyed tiger's head like lightning. The leader guards have already been waiting for him here. The typical infantry and cavalry cooperated with each other, but things are not good.

Dayue is not as many war horses as the Mongols can be dispatched and used. In order to fight against the Mongols, they invented the infantry and cavalry to cooperate in combat. As long as the infantry and cavalry cooperate tacitly, simple cavalry is no match for them at all.

A large number of leading guards were waiting for him here. Obviously, Cheng Qun had already prepared in Xiangzhou. So why could the head of the army still conquered Shuocheng so easily? The leading guards and the former Baotao Guards, Cheng Qun could gather more than 50,000 main forces of the guards, and the Xiangjun Zhenjun, the power he had was far greater than his own!

Cold sweat whizzed out from the three-eyed tiger. Looking at the leading guards gathering in the distance, he suddenly understood this problem. Cheng Qun wanted to gather his main force under the city of Xiangzhou.

After Liu Huajian defeated him, he would inevitably use the maneuverability of the cavalry to penetrate Fukang from Shenwu and cut off the second leader's retreat. The situation here is critical. It can be imagined that Huang Rui in Taikang will definitely not be better. If the two wings fail together, the two guards will be surrounded in reverse. Hongniang's headquarters' army will be surrounded by the city of Xiangzhou, with no way to heaven and no way to enter the ground.

Go, retreat! The three-eyed tiger immediately made up its mind.

But at this time, it is not so easy to leave.

Looking back at the left and right, the three-eyed tiger shouted: "I need a thousand brothers to launch a desperate attack on the enemy to cover the main force's retreat. Who is willing to take on this responsibility?"

"Tiger, brothers!" A strong man with a strong figure rushed forward and choked, and the sabre in his waist was pulled out.

"Jiang Bin, this is a decisive attack, and the possibility of survival is almost zero!" Sanyan Hu looked at him, "No one supports you. You can't retreat, because I want to lead my troops to retreat to Fukang. We are fooled. I must withdraw Fukang, so that the second in command has a way out to retreat. Have you figured it out?"

Jiang Bin smiled, "Who is not dead? If I don't die, I will have another brother to die. Master Hu, the way back is not smooth. There are the main force of the leading guards here, and I suspect that Brother Luo Yi is probably defeated under Shenwu County. Master Hu, the way back is also a fierce battle!"

The three-eyed tiger stretched out his hand: "Take care! Stay alive!"

Jiang Bin nodded: "I will try my best to live!"

Liu Huajian, the commander of the military guards, is one of the few senior generals in the Dayue Guard who has a deep study of cavalry combat. In the battle to pursue Aslan, Cheng Qun gathered all the cavalry of the four guards and handed them over to him to command. He pursued hundreds of miles, annihilated tens of thousands of subordinates of Zarchiwuti's army, and seriously injured Aslan. This is his masterpiece. But as the commander of the guards, he rarely had the opportunity to command cavalry alone like this. This time, in order to deal with the Three-Eyed Tiger, Cheng Qun once again drew him out. This alone was enough to make the Three-Eyed Tiger proud.

Standing under the banner, he watched the cavalry commanded by the Three-eyed Tiger in the distance begin to change formations at an extremely fast speed. One rushed towards him without hesitation, while most of them were the back teams who changed to the front teams and began to retreat back without hesitation.

"Three, I just saw us and knew that something was wrong!" Zhang Xi, the deputy general on the side, exclaimed: "General Liu, the opponent's cavalry is advancing and retreating, and the rules are so magnificent that the riding skills are amazing, which makes the last general feel a little as he sees the soldiers of the Mongolian Yuan tent."

Liu Huajian nodded and sighed, "It's a pity that this three-eyed tiger is a talent. It's really amazing that he can train such a cavalry. It's just a pity that they got into this trap and reacted quickly, they were just struggling to death after all."

"Can Tu'an block the attack of the Three-Eyed Tiger? After all, he must first annihilate his opponent's troops in Shenwu County, and turn around and deal with this fierce cavalry?" Zhang Xi said.

"It's okay, even if the Three-eyed Tiger rushed out, how many people could he have returned to Fukang alive? How could we leave him much time to revive his momentum?" Liu Huajian laughed and said, "Zhang Xi, the last time he pursued the Aslan of the Mongol Yuan, you have always regretted not being able to confront him head-on. Today, you can learn about the troops of the Three-eyed Tiger. Let's see how? I'll give you two thousand people, two to one!" Liu Huajian just glanced at him and had roughly estimated the number of people on the other side.

"Thank you, General!" Zhang Xi was overjoyed and rode his horse out, holding his spear high in his hand, "Brothers, follow me!" The soldiers and horses whom he belonged to shouted loudly and rode their horse out.

Jiang Bin attacked upside down, Zhang Xi bounced down, and the two cavalry quickly approached each other. At this time, the main force of the cavalry led by Sanyan Hu rushed out of the pocket like lightning and rushed to Shenwu County while the infantry on both sides of the opponent had not yet been encircled.

"Kill!" Jiang Bin took the lead and rushed forward along the gentle slope. When he was still two hundred steps away from Zhang Xi's troops, he tapped the horse's belly with his toes. The war horse skillfully circled a small arc and ran horizontally. At the sound of the bowstring, the feather arrows in Jiang Bin's hand were like meteors, one after another, shooting down the leading guards and cavalry that were sweeping down one by one.

Behind him, more than a thousand cavalrymen followed Jiang Bin's pace and rode their horses past the cross section of Zhang Xi's subordinates. The arrows were like locusts, flying towards their opponents who raised their guns and swooped down. Some cavalry had a little less cavalry. In front of this sudden sharp turn, the horse fell off and fell off the horse. The luckier bone rolled down the slope. Although they were covered in bruises, they finally saved their lives. They were trampled and killed by the war horses behind them. What's more, they were directly crushed to death by their own war horses.

Thousands of war horses suddenly changed their formation before the two armies handed over, which was extremely risky. However, Jiang Bin was determined to die at this time and was determined to kill more opponents. In this way, it would reduce the burden on the subsequent wars and make the Three-Eyed Tiger and the Red Lady easier. He understood that cavalry was still very precious to the current guards.

Zhang Xi never expected that the other party would use this tactic. Jiang Bin's current formation was very thin and he could penetrate it with one rush. Although he paid a huge price, Zhang Xi still dispersed the other party's formation. The problem was that Jiang Bin now rode more than a thousand miles long slope and ran around into a circle. The front and the tail were almost connected together. He ran endlessly. Zhang Xi's troops broke the enemy in front of him and plunged into this circle. Looking around, he actually looked everywhere.

It was the enemy, the opponent controlled the horse and ran wildly, and the feather arrows kept firing into the circle, but Zhang Xi had no way to fight back. He dived down, faster than the opponent, and the faster speed made him dare not let the cavalry turn suddenly, and could only blindly go down, striving to break through the opponent's circle first. In this way, his two thousand cavalry did not have the power to fight back. Watching them bleed down, rushing Jiang Bin's team into chaos, but in fact, they can only be beaten and cannot fight back.

With a mistake, he was restrained everywhere. Zhang Xi was very depressed. In the distance, Liu Huajian was watching him and rushed down the slope. His speed slowed down. He suddenly turned the horses and rectified the team. With the roar, he rushed up again. At this time, Jiang Bin's troops had turned their horses and rushed towards him.

In a blink of an eye, Zhang Xi, who had the advantage of geographical advantage, was at a disadvantage. After paying the price of hundreds of people, Jiang Bin gained the advantage of the terrain and rushed from top to bottom with a simple tactic.

On the hillside, the advantage of leading guards was lies. For this first attack, Jiang Bin achieved a one-to-three loss.

"Kill!" Jiang Bin had red eyes and threw away the longbow in his hand. The feather arrow had already shot light. He no longer needed him. He pulled out the shiny sabre and rushed down.

Like Jiang Bin, the thousand cavalry left behind shot out the feather arrows in their quiver, pulled out their saber, and roared. At this moment, behind them were the enemy's main cavalry, and in front of them was the enemy's vanguard who was rushing towards them. In this situation, no one still thought that he could survive.

The White Lotus Cavalry adheres to the tradition of the Eagle-billed Rock Horse Bandits. The combat weapons are accustomed to using narrow and sharp sabers, while the Central Plains Cavalry focuses more on weapons such as spears and spears. This is also caused by the gap in the horse fighting skills of the two sides. At a certain distance, the guard cavalry equipped with long weapons have the upper hand, and once the two sides fight together, the sabers are more convenient.

The collision between the two armies once again demonstrated the advantages and disadvantages of both sides. As soon as they met, most of the White Lotus Cavalry were dismissed, but when the two sides were in chaos, the guard cavalry was easily chopped off the horse by their opponents like dumplings.

The muscles on Liu Huajian's face kept twitching as the guards fell off their horses. It was not that he didn't want to send more cavalry to rush forward to support, but the terrain here did not allow more cavalry to fight at all, and the infantry had not arrived yet. Thinking that the cavalry he had trained was actually compared by a team of bandits, he was very angry.
