Chapter 1036: Success in the East and Success in the West (Twenty-Nine)

Guli rode her horse and slowly stepped onto a beam. At the end of her field of vision, a black line was slowly approaching. The two sides unanimously chose to fight today at this small place called Naiman Banner. , today is destined to be stained red with blood.

Seeing the Qin Army cavalry getting closer and closer, Guli's face turned pale slightly, and even Topler next to her heard the rattling of her teeth.

"It's Li Xin's armored cavalry!" Gu Li said every word. Of course she would not forget this army. At the beginning, Ying Ying first used light cavalry to capture the fleeing troops of the Huns royal court, and then used the armored cavalry to destroy them. It is bound to kill the remaining troops of the royal court. The Huns' sabers can't cut through the opponent's iron armor at all. This kind of monster, which even wears armor on horses, has no fear of arrows or knives. The only thing that can kill them is Heavy weapons, but how could the fleeing Hun royal court organize a considerable number of heavy weapons troops at that time? In order to escape faster, those burdens had long been discarded.

"Gu Li, how to deal with these monsters?" Topler's expression changed drastically.

"There is nothing to fear from these iron guys. They can only sprint a hundred meters at most before running out of energy, so they can only move forward slowly. They can only be effective when their opponents are surrounded." Gu Li said calmly. ."Topler, pass the order. All our cavalry will be divided into two groups, one on the left and one on the right. We will bypass these heavy cavalry at high speed. Organize all of our men who use heavy weapons, such as chain hammers, iron vertebrae, meteor hammers, etc. some type of."

"We should be able to find hundreds of people," Topler said.

"Okay, organize them, run around these iron cavalry, and attack them with these heavy weapons. They are not flexible. Just throwing the things in their hands will be enough to knock them down."

"clear!"

"The light cavalry must have speed and cannot get close to these iron cavalry. They have the ability to make a sprint. Once they are hit by them, they will either die or be injured. The light cavalry avoids their armored troops and goes to fight the Qing cavalry of the Qin army! Once they find the heavy armored cavalry, they must have speed. If you ride close, break away from the battle immediately and look for opportunities to fight again!"

"Yes!" Topler responded loudly.

Gu Li stared at the Qin army in front, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Topler had not left. She couldn't help but ask: "Topler, what are you hesitating about? The military situation is so fierce that any delay will be fatal."

Topler hesitated for a moment and said, "Gu Li, who are you? Are you still the Gu Li I know?"

Guli was stunned for a moment, then gently touched the helmet with a crack on her head, and said softly: "Topler, you don't need to know who I was before, you just need to know that I am He Dayou's now." A woman will only be his woman from now on, that's enough."

A smile appeared on Topler's face, "Okay, okay, then I'm relieved." He turned around and slapped the horse on the butt, flew away from the mountain ridge, and went to the rear to deliver the order. Topler had already vaguely guessed it. Gu Li's identity, because he was also in Gaoyuan's tent yesterday, but he has been He Dayou's friend for many years, so he would rather believe that the Gu Li in front of him is just Gu Li.

Li Xin has indeed invested a lot of money this time. He only has a thousand armored cavalry. It is useless to have more such teams. The role they can play is really limited and can only be used in some specific situations. But as long as they can When fighting the enemy, victory is always on their side.

Li Xin trusted his cavalry very much to deal with these herdsmen who had no fighting ability at all. He would easily use the changes in formation to surround the herdsmen in one place, and then he could use the heavy cavalry to charge back and forth, easily covering the ground with these herdsmen. Kill all the guys running around.

That's what Ying Ying did back then, and in the end no one in the Huns royal court was left alive. Li Xin confidently rode on his horse and headed towards Jishi City. Yan Haibo should have known that he was approaching him, but he didn't retreat even though He was shrinking but still moving forward, which made Li Xin a little curious. Could it be that this young general who was only 25 years old really wanted to have a fight with him?

But in Naiman Banner, the battle has already begun.

Gu Li rode a bay-red horse, brandishing the scimitar in her hand, and led her cavalry in a large circle, accurately cutting through the gap between the armored cavalry and the Qin army's light cavalry. And before cutting in, At the same moment, some men wielding heavy weapons broke away from the team. The iron vertebrae, iron hammers, and meteor hammers in their hands flew towards the monsters, who were covered in iron armor with the sound of the whistling wind.

The armored cavalry's slow advance became even slower. They raised a hand, and a large shield was tied to their hand. With a rumbling sound, the large shield recessed inward. For a moment, I don’t know how many arms were broken off, but very few fell off their horses. Obviously, these armored heavy cavalry have their own way of dealing with heavy weapons. For them, even if they give up one arm, they can still stand alone. The impact of his own body is enough to kill the enemy.

A dull horn sounded in the ranks of the armored cavalry. Following the deep roars, the armored cavalry raised their hands. In each hand, they held a three-foot-long iron javelin. Bow, swinging his arm back, suddenly threw forward, and the javelins flew forward like arrows off the string. Before the herdsmen who had just thrown the heavy weapons had time to move away, the javelins had arrived. These javelins were surprisingly powerful, and they were next to each other. One shot would often pierce through the whole body, no matter whether it was a man or a horse. After a round of javelin was thrown, only twenty or thirty of the hundreds of herdsmen who had just approached these armored cavalry managed to escape by chance.

Gu Li just glanced back, then turned her head again. In front of her, a Qin Army cavalry was coming towards her. Gu Li raised her left hand, and in her left hand, she held the gift He Dayou gave her before leaving. A riding crossbow.

There was a crash, and at a distance of more than ten steps, the cavalry crossbow passed through the opponent's leather armor with great force and plunged into the opponent's chest. The cavalryman roared and fell off the horse. He didn't even see the enemy's appearance clearly. Lost his life.

The sound of collapse rang twice more, and two more riders fell off their horses. Almost at the same moment, countless crossbows fired the crossbow arrows in their hands, but Yu was shocked and angry. He had been fighting with these herdsmen for more than ten days. He had fought dozens or hundreds of small battles, but he had never seen these herdsmen possess something like a crossbow, which was only available to the regular Han army. During the battle, the opponent actually took it out. This made him a little surprised. In a short period of time, In an instant, hundreds of Qin soldiers were caught off guard and fell off their horses.

After the three crossbows were fired, the two sides had collided with each other. The correct reaction at this time was to throw away the crossbow in their hands. Regular cavalry usually did this, but these herdsmen cherished the hard-won weapons too much. , were busy inserting the crossbows in their hands into their waists, and the cavalry were fighting. The gap between life and death was like lightning. The herdsmen were so distracted that the Qin army who was lying on the horse kept getting up. The spears and sabers in his hands were already swung straight over. Amidst the screams, the herdsmen fell off their horses one after another.

Gu Li knew what to do, but like those herdsmen, she inserted the crossbow into her waist, because this crossbow belonged to her husband and had his husband's name engraved on it. In this short moment, she was faced with a When a spear was stabbed, Gu Li screamed, and fell backwards, with her back almost touching the horse's back. It seemed that this scream frightened the cavalry on the opposite side. Maybe the other party learned from this scream. He heard that the person wrapped in leather armor was actually a woman. His shot failed, and the Qin cavalry on the opposite side was stunned for a moment. This stunned Gu Li, who was in crisis, found him. Seizing the opportunity, he quickly raised his hand with the crossbow inserted, and suddenly grabbed the opponent's spear. The scimitar in his hand was shaved against the spear. The two horses crossed each other. Qin Jun screamed, and the fingers holding the spear were sliced ​​off. Eight of them were broken, and the spear was snatched away by Gu Li. Gu Li did not look back. She stabbed the spear behind her based on her feeling. Feeling the obstruction, she exerted force and tilted the spear to one side. , Gu Li let go, and a heavy sound of a falling horse came from behind.

Gu Li stretched out her hand to wipe the cold sweat on her forehead, feeling cold all over her body. At that moment, it was really a matter of life and death. If her opponent didn't hesitate, she would be the one who died. She touched the crossbow on her waist, Gu Li smiled. If she had to do it again, she would still choose this way. It was her lame husband's crossbow.

The attack on the armored soldiers continued. Waves of herdsmen armed with heavy weapons rushed forward, running wildly around the armored heavy cavalry, and threw the heavy weapons in their hands. With the experience of previous attacks, later The herdsmen were a little faster, but speaking of the results, they were still unsatisfactory. The armored soldiers moved forward unhurriedly, sometimes even stopping and turning slowly, but every time they threw a javelin, It can cause great harm to herdsmen. One javelin is easy to hide, but when you are faced with dozens of javelins coming towards you, there is no other way to go except to meet death.

"Give up attacking the armored soldiers and go around them. They won't be able to run for long before they run out of energy and stop." In the middle of the fight, Gu Li loudly said to Topler beside her: "Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet, let them stop." give up."

Dan Yu's face was ashen. It was obvious that this time the herdsmen in front of him received logistical support from Jishi City, allowing them to obtain the cavalry crossbows that were only equipped by the regular army. The wealth of the Han army made Dan Yu very jealous. The Qin army was not equipped with cavalry crossbows. They were not developed, but because they were too sophisticated and expensive, they did not have the money to equip them on a large scale, but the Han Dynasty was able to give them to these herdsmen.

Fortunately, these herdsmen really had no fighting qualities. After the initial shock, Dan Yu calmed down, and using the restraints of the armored cavalry, he began to wave the command flag in an orderly manner, mobilizing the cavalry under his command to pass through each other, seemingly without any problems. The purposeless interspersion has only one ultimate goal, which is to force these herdsmen into a small environment without knowing it, and then use the armored cavalry's sprint to carry out a large number of killings, and then the second time, and the third time. Times. (To be continued)
