Chapter 694: Unstoppable
boom!
Within a hundred steps, two thousand iron cavalry arrived in an instant like arrows from their bows, and crashed into them hard.
boom!
"kill!"
"Herod!"
The cavalry of Cao's army in the front row collided with Han Dang's army's shield formation without scruples. The sword and shield soldiers in the first row gritted their teeth and pressed their shields with their shoulders. They only felt an irresistible huge force. The force came with a bang.
"ah!"
Some Jiangdong soldiers with thin bodies screamed. You must know that a war horse weighs hundreds of kilograms, which is much stronger than any strong man. How can these Jiangdong soldiers resist such a rampage?
"Spearman, thrust!"
Han Dang shouted sharply. Although the spearmen standing behind the sword and shield men were frightened, their elite quality made them choose to obey the order.
"prick!"
Poof!
A whole row of spears thrust out in unison. After this row of spearmen, there was another row of spearmen. They shouted loudly, put their spears on the shoulders of the comrades in the front row, held the spear shafts tightly, and stood ready.
Horses are afraid of sharp objects, but these war horses have long been accustomed to battle formations. Even some war horses can't help but be nervous. However, those Cao soldiers had already covered the eyes of the war horses with cloth strips, so the war horses could not see the danger. Naturally, There is nothing to fear.
Rows of spears pierced the horses and Cao's cavalry, and dozens of Cao's cavalry were killed or injured in a moment.
Cao Ren gritted his teeth, but continued to roar: "Charge, charge, kill the enemy!"
Han Dang also shouted fiercely: "Hold on, we must not be defeated!"
Cao Jun's cavalry rushed forward in a steady stream. Although the Cao Jun cavalry and horses in the front row were blocked by spears, the Cao Jun cavalry who followed did not stop and bumped into them. The huge horses squeezed past Jiangdong. The military formation of the spearmen was separated by a gap.
Cao Jun's cavalry took advantage of the gap and rushed towards the gap. Dozens and hundreds of cavalry hit the embankment like a flood, and Jiangdong Army's formation was immediately divided into two halves. Cao Jun's cavalry was as powerful as a rainbow and charged in.
Han Dang's eyes were about to burst, and he shouted: "Be prepared, be prepared, be prepared!"
The Jiangdong Army's infantry formation had been opened up by Cao's cavalry. Han Dang gave orders desperately, hoping to regroup his troops and horses, but how could Cao Ren let him do so?
Cao Ren shouted to Shi Huan: "Gong Liu, you and I attack from the left and right. I will lead an army to outflank from the left, and you will lead an army to outflank the enemy from the right. We will completely defeat the enemy."
"No!" Shi Huan agreed and raised his arms and shouted. Cao's cavalry was immediately divided into two, with one half following Cao Ren and the other half following Shi Huan.
The two cavalry units of Cao's army "parted ways", suddenly separated, and fought out from the left and right of Jiangdong's army.
At this time, Jiangdong's army formation looked like an upside-down "U", and Cao Jun's cavalry suddenly rushed out from both sides of the "U"-shaped gap, as if two sharp awls were piercing out from both sides of the bag. , and immediately fought out of Jiangdong's army.
Cao Ren gave a sharp shout and led nearly a thousand cavalry around to the left side of Han Dang's army. He raised the horse spear high in his hand and swept through thousands of troops with a swish movement. Immediately, three Jiangdong soldiers were scratched by the horse spear and fell to the ground with blood like a fountain. Nearly a thousand cavalry led by Cao Ren were like a cavalry scimitar, passing through the left side of Han Dang's army. Before more than a hundred Jiangdong soldiers could react, they were scratched by Cao's soldiers' spears and sabers and were seriously injured.
Shi Huan on the right led nearly a thousand cavalry of Cao's army in the same way. The two cavalry of Cao's army were like two scimitars, drawing two elegant arcs in the wilderness, but the color of these arcs was made of blood.
Cao Jun's cavalry surrounded them for a while, and Jiangdong's army suffered nearly 300 casualties. However, Cao Ren and Shi Huan turned around with normal expressions and led their cavalry to charge again. The speed of the cavalry charge was quite fast, far beyond what the infantry could match. Two thousand cavalry outflanked them again. Spears and scimitars fell, killing and injuring hundreds more Jiangdong soldiers. Countless Jiangdong soldiers screamed and wailed. Holding the bleeding wound, he couldn't die for a while, and Jiang Dongjun looked around with fear.
After two rounds of outflanking, coupled with the previous frontal impact, the three thousand Jiangdong Army had killed and injured nearly a thousand people, and their morale was on the verge of collapse.
"Destroy the enemy!"
Cao Ren shouted loudly, holding the horse in his hand, covered in blood, and rushed away first. The nearly a thousand cavalry behind him all had high morale, and they all shouted in unison. Following Cao Ren, they rushed on the ground like a tide, moving forward indomitably.
The remaining Jiangdong soldiers all turned pale. The power of this cavalry charge was too terrifying, wasn't it?
Many Jiangdong soldiers looked at each other in confusion, wanting to find some comfort from their companions, but all they could see in their companions' pupils was fear and panic.
Jia Er was a recruit of the Jiangdong Army. He was originally from Moling. Because there were many brothers in his family and he was hungry from farming, he simply joined the army and became a member of the Jiangdong Army. Zhou Yu was ordered to train new recruits in Chaisang, so Jia Er received training in Chaisang for half a year. As long as he experienced a bloody battle, he was enough to form an army.
However, Jia Er's hand holding the spear shaft turned white, sweat dripped from his palms, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.
Tap tap tap!
Nearly a thousand cavalrymen of Cao's army charged towards them, making a dusty noise and making a huge noise. The scimitars raised high reflected a dazzling cold light in the sunlight. The knights of Cao Jun on horseback had stern expressions and murderous smiles on their lips, as if they were demons in hell.
As the eyes of Cao Jun's cavalry grew bigger and bigger, Jia Er finally couldn't hold on any longer. He dropped his spear without hesitation, turned around and ran away.
"Help, help!"
Seeing Jia Er running away, the veteran commander on the side couldn't help but became furious: "Jia Er, how dare you run away from the battlefield?"
Jia Er paid no attention at all and kept running away, like a bull on fire, knocking his comrades in front of him to the ground, getting up and running again.
There is only one possibility in everything, and Jia Er's escape was like a fuse, igniting the prelude to the collapse of Han Dangjun.
"Run away, run away!"
"We can't defeat Cao's cavalry at all, we can't wait here to die!"
The Jiangdong soldiers in Han Dang's army who were not very willing to fight could not hold back for a long time. They dropped their weapons and turned around and ran away. Most of them were new soldiers. However, the veterans who were very determined to fight were not immune to the influence of this atmosphere of defeat and flight. , the military morale was shaken.
"Damn it, you really deserve to die!"
Seeing these new soldiers turn around and run away, Han Dang couldn't help but be furious, but he was helpless and could only look away and sigh.
boom!
Cao Jun's cavalry rushed up again, and the Jiangdong army formation, which had lost many people, finally couldn't hold on and collapsed.
