Han counter current

Compared with the two sides of the Yangtze River, this can only be regarded as the second battlefield, and it is all exchanges between land troops.Tai Shici told his opponents with practical actions that besides the invincible navy, there are also these brave infantry in the Jiangdong army.

However, this stalemate situation is not what Tai Shici wants to see. At the beginning, he received Zhou Yu's order to open a gap in Yangzhou to support the Yangtze River Navy to go north.

For this reason, even though Tai Shici did not have an advantage in field battles, he still insisted on taking the initiative to attack, and used mountains, rivers and roads to fight the enemy many times. Although he did not win a big victory, he also limited the advantage of the enemy cavalry Within a certain range.

"After struggling for so long, it's still difficult to open the situation. It's no wonder that the governor will send letters again and again, anyway, it's time to implement the governor's plan. Hehe, the northern army deceived me that Jiangdong was uninhabited, and only sent two yellow mouths. The child came to prevaricate me.

However, it is said that these two are Chen Feng's adopted sons, and they are famous generals, if I let them fall into my hands, I will kill Chen Feng in anger, hahaha,,,,,, "

Tai Shici, who hadn't won a battle for many years, is now in high spirits. This time he led [-] troops to fight alone, and supported the main force to go north. The task on his shoulders was not light.

A few days later, in the wilderness, Lu Xiao was leading an army to hunt down a defeated army. Since fighting Tai Shici, he rarely had the opportunity to follow a defeated army like this. This time, he wanted to maximize the advantage of the wolf cavalry.

In the rear of the team, Wen Meng commanded more than 3000 cavalry in his headquarters to advance slowly. They had fought a tough battle before, and the heavy cavalry led by him charged towards the enemy infantry positions again and again.

When the enemy's formation showed signs of collapse, the wolf cavalry led by Lu Xiao launched the tactics of riding, shooting, driving, and dividing, and finally defeated the enemy's formation.

Right now, Wen Meng's mission is considered complete, as long as Lu Xiao can completely wipe out the enemy army, this time it will be a big victory.Thinking that he could achieve such an achievement by leading the army alone this time, one can imagine the excitement in Wen Meng's heart, but he was not able to participate in the final encirclement and annihilation battle, which made him quite complain.

"Report, report, report to the general, there is a rout of troops in the southeast direction, the number of people is about one or two thousand, and it is less than ten miles away from our army."

"Okay, haha, I can still make some military exploits in the end. Brothers, cheer me up. There is a lot of credit for ten miles to the southeast. Chase, hurry up, there are deep mountains twenty miles away, and you must not let it go." The enemy army fled into the mountains."

Wen Meng was very excited. In order to increase the speed of the pursuit, he left hundreds of wounded and another [-] elite cavalry camped here. Moreover, he felt that it was the pursuit battle right now, and there was no need for the cavalry and horses to carry heavy armor.

Ever since, except for the 300 elite who still wore heavy armor, the rest of the more than [-] cavalry were all lightly dressed and went into battle wearing leather armor.

The war horses of the heavy cavalry are good horses, with strong load-bearing capacity and fast assault speed. Although they lack endurance for long-distance trekking, the mere ten-odd miles is nothing to these war horses.

Soon, Wen Meng led the two thousand elites to hunt down and eliminate them, followed the traces of the enemy, and caught up with them when the enemy was still five miles away from the deep mountain.

"2000 people is not a lot. The enemy army is only 2 people in total. This time, I will eat one-tenth of them. Soldiers, line up,,,,,,"

Wen Meng has learned the ability of Tai Shici from the east. To be honest, if Jiangdong hadn't produced horses and had no source of elite cavalry, Tai Shici might not have lost to them in the field.

But even so, Tai Shici was able to draw the war to a draw, which showed his ability. Therefore, Wen Meng felt that if he could completely wipe out this army, he would definitely become famous.

But soon, a group of soldiers and horses appeared in front of the rout. It seemed that they were the reinforcements of the rout. Wen Meng felt uneasy, but, in such a situation, he could wipe out the enemy with a single charge. Army, it seems that there is no need to stop.

"Arrangement, formation,,,,,,"

At the forefront, the enemy army who came to support quickly formed an array under the command of a general. Although there were only more than [-] people, the momentum was absolutely elite.

After seeing this general, the rout soldiers on the other side spontaneously ran towards both sides of the friendly formation, so as not to cause confusion to their friendly troops.

"Speed ​​up, kill,,,,,,"

Wen Meng's side is speeding up for the last time. The distance between the two sides is less than a hundred steps, and there is no way to avoid it now. Only by using the sprint force of the cavalry to break the enemy's formation, and victory will come to their side.

"Raise the crossbow, shoot,,,,,,"

The more than 800 elite infantry on the opposite side raised their crossbows under the command of the general, and then fired arrows. Although there were only more than 800 crossbow arrows, they were enough to cover hundreds of cavalry in front of Wen Meng.

"Raise the shield and rush over, the crossbow arrows are fired very slowly, just survive this round,,,,,,"

The cavalry here held their cavalry shields in an attempt to resist the wave of crossbow arrows. Although the cavalry in front would suffer greater losses, it would give the cavalry behind a chance to crush the enemy.

However, Wen Meng was too impulsive. He didn't expect why the enemy would have a support army here, let alone wonder why the enemy dared to stop and fight.

"Continue, shoot,,,,,,"

Contrary to the expectations of all the cavalry here, the more than 800 crossbowmen on the opposite side continued to fire after firing the first wave of crossbow arrows. There was almost no gap between them.

"What, this,,,,,,"

Wen Meng's expression proved that he was quite surprised at the moment, because the firing speed of the crossbow was completely beyond his expectation. Soon, bursts of arrows were fired, and the hundreds of people who charged at the front were quickly shot.

These cavalry without heavy armor protection are naturally inferior to light cavalry in terms of mobility and flexibility. Facing the enemy's arrows, they can only use leather armor and use their bodies to fight hard.

Some riders with excellent riding skills have already realized that the situation is not right, so they immediately hang on the belly of the horse, trying to avoid these arrows.But the arrows all over the sky seem to never stop, can they dodge it?

"Donglai Taishici is here, and the enemy general has not given his head..."

Who would have thought that the general of the Jiangdong Army on the opposite side was actually Tai Shici himself, and Wen Meng was lucky this time.

Chapter 807 The Battle of Yangzhou 2

Once the charging cavalry was stopped, they could not speed up again.After the hundreds of cavalry in front fell to the ground with arrows, the cavalry behind could not keep moving forward at high speed. Now, the cavalry who slowed down became living targets.

Looking at the subordinates who fell on the ground and howling, and at the soldiers who were cursing beside him, the anger in Wen Meng's heart had reached its peak, and he was about to go crazy.

He has fought with the army for many years and fought with the army since he was a child. He has never suffered such a big loss. Especially, he trained and built this heavy cavalry by himself. But now, because of his mistake, it will be destroyed by him. superior.

"you wanna die,,,,,,"

With scarlet eyes, Wen Meng stared at Tai Shici who was thirty steps away, with only anger in his mind.Right now, as a cavalry general, the most sensible thing for him to do is to immediately lead the remaining cavalry out of the battle circle in order to preserve their strength.

It's a pity that Wen Meng was too impatient and he had lost too much, so he really couldn't swallow this breath.The subordinates next to him all obeyed his orders, and Wen Meng wanted to charge, so they had to bite the bullet.

"Hmph, it's a pity, after all, I'm still too young..."

There was a sneer at the corner of Tai Shici's mouth, then he bent his bow and set an arrow, and an arrow as thick as a thumb was shot out. Wen Meng, who was in a rage, couldn't dodge, and was shot directly in his right shoulder, and half of his body lost his intuition.

"Oh, it's a pity that there is a good seedling, Ma Zhong, you go and get rid of him."

Tai Shici really felt a little emotional. It had been so many years, and it was indeed the first time he met an outstanding young general from Wen Meng's side. Looking at the Jiangdong Army, none of the current younger generation could be called a strong general.

He had already shot and wounded the opponent, causing the opponent to lose most of his combat power. He really didn't want to make a last shot.Donglai Tai Shici also had dignity, he couldn't take credit for his head after sneak attacking a junior.

"No, general, this subordinate will go and end this baby."

As Tai Shici's general, Ma Zhong has followed Tai Shici for many years, and has also received Tai Shici's guidance for many years. Apart from other things, his archery skills are considered to be top-notch in the world, although they are not as good as Tai Shici's archery skills. But it is also rare in the world.

"The thief will dare, don't hurt my brother's life,,,,,,"

A roar came from a distance, and soon, a flame appeared in the sky. The flame was advancing at lightning speed, and the target was Ma Zhong who had just drawn out the arrow.

"Ma Zhong, get out of the way quickly,,,,,,"

Sensing a sense of danger, Tai Shici immediately pulled out three arrows and shot at the flame, and kicked Ma Zhong at the same time.After a short while, there were two metal crashes in the air, and an arrow was stuck in the place where Ma Zhong was standing before.

Lu Xiao, who was running wildly, put away his bow, biting an arrow thick as a thumb, but kept his eyes on Tai Shici's side. Chituma's speed was extremely fast, and he quickly approached the battle circle.

"Although he is a junior, he is also a rare master. Hurry up, the enemy's reinforcements are here. The whole army retreats. I will come to the rear."

Farther away, bursts of dust and smoke floated up, obviously a sign of a large cavalry attack.The Jiangdong infantry who were besieging Wen Meng's subordinates quickly withdrew from the battlefield after receiving the order, and then quickly moved back.

Tai Shici led two hundred cavalry to form a formation, and at the same time bent his bow and set an arrow to aim at Lu Xiao. He knew that his opponent was also a good shooter. He could not kill him, but he could slow down the opponent's speed.
