Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Chapter 814 Infantry Assault Cavalry

Hearing Ju Wentai's order, Anda's face also turned dark. He didn't know what weapons those Tang people were carrying. Although it was impossible to carry the heavy bed crossbow at the top of the city, there must be bows and arrows.

Where he can shoot the enemy, the enemy can definitely shoot him, but the enemy is full of armor, and they are all full of leather armor!Don't think they will definitely lose.

The question is can he disagree?

If he dared to disagree, he believed that Ju Wentai would definitely tell his khan about his behavior of fleeing without fighting, and he would still have to die by then!

After a little contemplation, Anda made a decision. He could follow Ju Wentai's order to attack a wave. Anyway, Anda was not the one who died, and he didn't feel sorry for the soldiers under him, but at least, Ju Wentai couldn't fight without fighting. And the excuse of fleeing threatened him again.

"Yes, but if my soldiers suffer huge losses, we will retreat, and... I advise you, King Ju Wentai, to get your soldiers ready to retreat!" Anda took a deep breath opened the mouth.

"I see, I will make my people prepare to retreat, General Anda, don't worry, if we fail this time, it's not your fault, it's because Datang is too strong, I will fight in Yipiduluke Speak good things about you in front of Khan!" Ju Wentai knew very well what the other party was afraid of, so he was naturally willing to sell the other party a favor.

"it is good!"

Anda left behind a word, turned around and left!

Soon the Turkic cavalry units began to gather!But Ju Wentai quickly conveyed orders to the generals of his army, ordering them to be prepared to retreat at any time, especially that each soldier in the logistics force only carried a certain amount of dry food, and all other supplies and food were discarded!

When Ju Wentai was making preparations here, Anda over there had assembled all the Turkic cavalry, a total of [-] Turkic cavalry.

He observed the enemy's terrain. Yiwu City is located on a trumpet-shaped mountain pass. The river, and the south side are some fields that have been dug out.

In other words, this is a small plain, enough for their cavalry to maneuver.And from a distance, the enemy did not carry the spear formations used to prevent the cavalry from charging, but Anda was still not ready to charge.

The Tang army is not an idiot. They can even come up with so many full-body armors. Wouldn't it be possible for them to have an extremely simple spear?It is definitely impossible, but if the enemy does not bring it, it will definitely be tricky.

So he was only going to attack the enemy with arrow rain according to the original plan, but in the current situation, if he wanted, he could lead the cavalry to surround the enemy and then throw arrow rain towards the center.

Horseback archery does not require accuracy, as long as the arrow is shot out.

But after Anda carefully observed the enemy's formation, he decided to give up this idea, because if he attacked the enemy in a circle, and when he circled behind the enemy, if five hundred full-armored heavy cavalry rushed out of the enemy's city, he would be defeated at such a short distance. Inside, they'd have a lot to lose.

And when they bypass the enemy's back, they will be under the attack of the heavy crossbow on the city wall!

He decided to lead the cavalry around an arc, forming a line, and then skipping across the enemy's formation horizontally, throwing a wave of arrows at the enemy to see the situation.Because he is not sure what weapons are in the enemy's formation, but there must be bows and arrows!

He can lead an army to attack, but it is impossible for him to give the lives of most Turkic soldiers here.

After formulating the strategy, Anda quickly made relevant plans with several of his generals, and then got on the horse directly, "Woo!" The unique horn of the Turks sounded!

"Turkic warriors! Kill!" Anda didn't talk nonsense, got on his horse and yelled, and rushed out directly.

The Turkic cavalry who followed him immediately became excited, with strange howls from their mouths, and more than 2000 war horses quickly began to gather into a long line, and began to circle a large circle on this large plain.

Xu Ling was a little nervous, but he didn't show any expression on his face. He just watched the scene with a stern expression. As the commander on the spot, Xu Ling will be in charge of this battle.

He knew very well that although the soldiers around him were all veterans, there were not many scenes of directly facing the cavalry charging like this.

"Let go!" Watching the enemy walk around, Xu Ling shouted directly.The orderly standing beside Xu Ling quickly waved the order flag in his hand!

With a "boom", all the shields smashed to the ground uniformly, forming a neat shield wall.

Xu Ling stared closely at the enemy's war horses. If the enemy had any thoughts of detouring behind them, he would quickly transform into a circular formation.When Xu Ling saw the enemy take off the bow and arrow from his back while marching, he knew that the enemy was not going to contact them head-on.

To be honest, he wanted the enemy to charge head-on, so they didn't even carry spears to prevent the enemy from charging.

But the formation of the enemy cavalry is obviously impossible to charge forward, and they don't even seem to be planning to go around their rear. After all, their rear is not too far away from the city. If the enemy wants to insert them between them and the city, then they will Within the range of the crossbow arrows of both sides.

So he had only one choice. With the current appearance of the Turkic cavalry, they were obviously going to pass by their formation, and then send a wave of arrows to them.

This kind of formation... If you want to cause the greatest damage to the enemy, it is best to wait for the enemy's vanguard to charge about halfway in front of them before attacking, but then they will suffer a wave of arrows from the enemy's vanguard.

Although it was difficult for the enemy's arrow rain to cause them much damage, even so, Xu Ling was not prepared to do so.

"Command! Shield soldiers and crossbowmen are ready to meet the enemy head-on!" Xu Ling roared.

The trumpeter beside him directly picked up the trumpet in his hand, and the passionate and unique melody of "beep beep beep" sounded instantly!The original horizontal shield wall instantly turned to the direction of the enemy's forward, and at the same time slowly began to advance towards the enemy.

Anda: "?"

He was completely dumbfounded, the enemy would definitely react, but he never expected that the enemy would actually slowly advance towards the cavalry in the opposite direction after seeing their cavalry's movements!Although the range of motion is not large, advancing is advancing!

Don't die? !Or are they too confident?

A few thoughts popped up in Anda's mind, but at this time he had no way to change his strategy.

And the change of the enemy's position is not too big, so the original plan can still be implemented!

What he didn't expect was that just as they circled an arc and were about to approach the enemy's formation, the unique trumpet sound in the opponent's camp changed again!

With a sound of "boom", following the sound of the horn, the soldiers in the front row smashed down the shield in an instant, and then the whole person bent down and squatted behind the shield, opening the unique supporting legs under the shield!While they were doing these actions, the five hundred crossbowmen in the row behind them directly placed the crossbow in their hands on top of the shield, and then pulled the crossbow without hesitation!

With a sound of "buzz", the sound of the continuous trembling of the crossbow strings sounded, and the 500 crossbow arrows instantly went straight to the enemy's formation like a sickle!

The moment the trigger was pulled, the first row of [-] crossbowmen didn't even look at the results of the battle, they directly retracted their crossbows, and retreated in an orderly manner, while the second row of crossbowmen directly placed their crossbows on the shield wall again , and then without hesitation, he directly pulled the crossbow in his hand!

Then another 500 crossbow arrows rushed at the enemy!

When the third row of crossbowmen put the general crossbow on the shield, the first row of crossbowmen had already directly pulled and wound the crossbow strings with the assistance of two moving pulleys!

Anda took the lead in the charge. When the enemy's first row of crossbows was placed directly on top of the shield, Anda's mind was blank!

Because at this moment the enemy has not yet entered the range of their bows and arrows!But the enemy's crossbow arrows have already swarmed like ghosts demanding their lives!

In just two breaths, Anda saw a soldier in front of him on the left, and a crossbow arrow just happened to pass directly across the neck of his war horse!Terrifying blood shot out in an instant!With the wailing of the war horse, he and the war horse rolled over and fell to the ground!

He is dead!Although the soldier was not injured.This thought flashed through Anda's mind.

But at that moment, at least twenty or thirty of the soldiers around him had fallen off their horses or rolled on the ground with the horses!

And then came the second batch of crossbow arrows!
