So they took up their weapons one after another, bearing the impact of the enemy and fighting back!
Xu Rong is fifty this year, and his long-term military career has made him very keen on everything on the battlefield.With the help of the height of the horses, he could see that Sun Jian's troops were still a little flustered, and the team was obviously scattered.
It is difficult for such an enemy to organize an effective resistance, as long as one charge, it will definitely be defeated!
But after Sun Jian threw a lance and killed one of the leading cavalrymen, the morale of the soldiers rose abnormally.It's just that at this time, the two sides are already very close, and it is impossible to stop.
So without hesitation, he lowered his figure and charged forward with his gun raised.
The two sides had a real collision, and the spears of the spearmen on the first floor were knocked into the air together with the people.The second layer was only delayed for a while, and then it was also knocked into the air.
Until the third floor, the spears seemed to slow down the opponent's cavalry a little. The soldiers decisively gave up the spears that were about to break, and drew out their ring swords to resist. At the same time, the spearmen on the fourth floor made the next round of blocking.
The speed of the horses stopped, and when they hit the sixth floor, the cavalry on the first floor had been stabbed at least three times by their horses. If it wasn't for the friendly troops behind to push forward, they would have been unable to move.
"Stop?" Sun Jian looked forward in disbelief, it was faster than he expected, so fast that he couldn't believe it.There is another level, which is about to come before him, and he will personally face the enemy's cavalry.
Although a little surprised, he quickly gave the order: "Charge!"
The soldiers were ordered to charge forward one after another, knowing in their hearts that cavalry without speed must not be allowed to run again!Conversely, as long as they are not allowed to run, the cavalry of the enemy army are the wooden stakes for them to practice their guns!
Xu Rong didn't expect that the charge that the iron cavalry was so proud of would be blocked so easily.
What is an iron cavalry? It is covered with armor, not only people, but also horses are covered with armor. This is called an iron cavalry.However, Dong Zhuo's funds were limited, so the scales covered by the horses were not so thick, but the vital points were still covered.
It's just that even if the non-critical parts were hit three times in a row, followed by being hacked by the opponent's soldiers with a ring knife, it would be very difficult. The four hooves had no protection at all. After many horses slowed down, they were chopped off by the opponent. horse leg.
Because of this, the charge of the cavalry stopped faster than he expected, so that he had to change direction as soon as possible, trying to let the soldiers bypass the front, and then continue to charge in another direction.
However, based on the endurance of the Liangzhou horse, it is estimated that after two or three charges, it will almost retreat.
"It shouldn't be..." Xu Rong led the cavalry to turn around and break out of the encirclement. The soldiers began to surround them, intending to stop them from running.In my heart, I felt very strange.
Sun Jian's troops attacked Sishui at night, so they must have been lying down at night and launching the attack in the middle of the night, and they have been traveling for so long, aren't they tired?The previous situation was also weird. It seemed that there was an obvious trend of fatigue. Why did I suddenly feel excited again?
There were mistakes in the battlefield intelligence, and there were problems with the original plan.It was so easy to charge a group of tired soldiers and kill Sun Jian in one charge, why did something happen suddenly.
Did Sun Jian preserve his strength from the very beginning and deliberately let the soldiers pretend to be tired to lure him into the bait; or is there something unreasonable at work? !
Compared with the second possibility, he is more inclined to the first one. In this case, then Sun Jian, the tiger of Jiangdong, unexpectedly is so cunning!Xu Rong couldn't help blaming himself, he didn't see through Sun Jian's true face, but fell for it!
Having said that, Dong Min's department also suffered a dull loss.The Cheng Pu Department, which seemed a little tired at first, suddenly became more aggressive, as if it had turned into substance!
In particular, the speed seemed to have become very fast, even faster than the speed of a Xiliang horse running at full speed!He originally planned to rely on joining Hu Zhen's troops to surround the cavalry, but now he found that the opponent's speed was too fast for him to catch up!
If you can't catch up, it will be bad... Even if the surrounding terrain is not suitable for the cavalry's large-scale turning movement, it is not easy to stop a running cavalry.
Fortunately, Cheng Pu himself set the rescue of Sun Jian's troops as his first goal, and had no intention of fighting with the 3000 of them.Before Hu Zhen's and Dong Min's troops encircled them, they had already rushed out of the encirclement and headed towards Sun Jian.
"My lord, I'll deal with Xu Rong!" Cheng Pu quickly moved towards Sun Jian and shouted at the same time.
"I'll leave it to you!" At that time, the distance between the two sides was not too far. In fact, Sun Jian had just noticed that Cheng Pu's troops were moving. He heard him shout, so he responded with a smile.
He also stopped pestering Xu Rong's department, and took less than [-] soldiers from the headquarters, turned around, and killed Dong Min.
"Kill the enemy!" Sun Jian shouted, and rushed out first. Not long after, he was in front of Hu Zhen and Dong Min.
"Kill!" The soldiers seemed to be red-eyed, adrenaline was constantly secreted, and the whole person was in a state of blood.Perhaps the effect of the 'burning will' kept them safe from the excitement, overshadowing the relaxation of the sense of security.
Dong Min was very puzzled, and came to Hu Zhen: "You can't retreat before you start the fight, right?"
"No no no, that's absolutely not the case. The last general fought for half an hour!" Hu Zhen couldn't tell, this is Dong Zhuo's younger brother, and he will definitely be crowned king in the future. "No, the soldiers under his command are exhausted..."
"But you are so exhausted, the other party can still be so energetic after a fight with you?" Dong Min didn't believe it, and felt that Hu Zhen was becoming more and more timid.
In other words, because it is a bait, it can be done without any effort.You know, even if it is a bait, I hope that he can fight the enemy to consume the enemy's physical strength.
"The last general is willing to fight to the death to be innocent!" Hu Zhen had nothing to say, it was because Sun Jian's side was too weird, he didn't know how to explain it.Today, Dong Min thought that he was timid and afraid of death, so he escaped early, and coupled with the defeat, dismissal and investigation would be light.
Considering Dong Zhuo's tendency to get angry now, it is estimated that he must cut himself off to frighten other generals.It is better to die on the battlefield than to die at the entrance of the market. The shroud of horse leather is the destination of generals!
"Don't worry, I won't let you go alone!" Seeing Hu Zhen's righteous indignation, Dong Min also felt that maybe he was wrong, "Kill the enemy with peace of mind, let's talk about the rest!"
"Here!" Hu Zhen replied, but at the moment his eyes were already red, he would never let Sun Jian go!
Chapter 444 The Price of Overconfidence
The battlefield had already entered the stage of chaotic warfare, and Sun Jian's troops 'bited' each other so tightly that it was not easy for Dong Min and Hu Zhen to change formations. The opponent was so close, and random changes would easily lead to flaws.
As for Sun Jian, he knew very well that the soldiers were exhausted, so he couldn't change his formation flexibly.It is more likely that there will be a flaw in the formation. With this method, at least the opponent can be forced not to change the formation.
"Continue to fight, the chances of winning are not great..." Dong Min was a little confused. If he continued to fight, why did he feel that his side would lose instead?
Hu Zhen has already commanded to the maximum extent, but the soldiers under his command are also exhausted, and many of them lack armor. Although they are desperate, but they are by their side, which has become the biggest weakness of the whole army.
"I can't fight anymore, withdraw!" Dong Min weighed it, mainly because he felt that Xu Rong was also restrained severely, so he had no choice but to order to retreat.
If you have strength, you can retreat calmly. If you don't have strength, it will not be so easy to retreat.
I don't know what happened to Sun Jian, after launching a night attack, he was still so energetic.
What frustrates him the most is that from the very beginning, Sun Jian's troops, whose casualties had begun to increase, began to decline in the death rate of their soldiers. Many soldiers grunted on the ground a few times, but were able to barely stand up again, and then went into battle in.
Sun Jian and Hu Zhen fought fiercely, perhaps he didn't notice much.Dong Min leaned back a bit, but he was keenly aware of this.
The casualties on his side are increasing, but the casualties on Sun Jian's side are decreasing. If it continues, it will definitely be over, so we can simply retreat!
At the same time, Yang She looked at the scroll of 'Vitality Regeneration' slowly disappearing, and sighed: I can only help you so far!
"Why?" Hu Zhen didn't understand why he had to retreat after fighting so far.
"This is a military order!" Dong Min didn't bother to explain, and shouted directly, and then announced the retreat.
Xu Rong, who was in the distance, saw that the pawns were starting to retreat, so he stopped entangled with Cheng Pu and began to lead his troops to follow.Heavy cavalry has advantages against infantry and even archers, but in the face of such fast and durable cavalry, they become passive.
Chasing and failing to catch up, the more you chase the horse, the more physically exhausted you will be.If you hit the opponent and don't confront you head-on, anyone else will feel aggrieved!
"My lord, do you want to pursue?" Cheng Pu came to meet Sun Jian, and the opponent began to retreat in an orderly manner, but there was still a chance of pursuit, and it depended on whether Sun Jian wanted to pursue or not.
"Pursuit!" Sun Jian swept among the soldiers, and there were corpses everywhere on the ground, but the casualties of his own army did not seem to be as many as imagined. 3000 people died in battle, and 200 people were killed, and the morale was high, which was a good time to pursue.
Breaking down the Hulao at this time is naturally a matter of once and for all.
"General, they are catching up!" Hu Zhen quickly reminded Sun Jian's troops as he watched them move towards him.
"Hey, it's just in time for them to catch up!" Dong Min smiled when he saw this, "Let us deal with them in Hulao Pass!"
"Yes!" Hearing this, Hu Zhen probably understood Dong Min's thoughts.Then I felt that the retreat just now might also be part of the strategy and belong to the bait.However, unlike giving up Sishui Pass, if there is a problem with Hulao Pass, it will be a big problem!
