As the scouts reported back, everyone could clearly feel the ground shaking, which indicated that a large number of horses were charging.

"Get ready to fight!" Xue Rengui ordered everyone to get ready for battle.

The elite riders of the Zuowu Guard hold long spears and put down their visors, and the guards of the palace also use bows and strings. The palace's compound bows will deal a heavy blow to the enemy when they charge in the first wave.

The other party didn't know that there were bows and arrows with a farther range than theirs. This is the opportunity. The 500 people have all been strictly trained by Xue Rengui. Ten arrows in one breath is just blowing, but at least two arrows in one breath is still acceptable.

Soon everyone saw a group of people, numbering about five or six thousand, coming from the southeast. Li Shen stood on the shaft of the carriage and built an awning, looking into the distance.

It’s a sea of ​​people. Everyone who has seen it knows that if the number of people exceeds [-], it is a sea of ​​people. It cannot be explained by numbers at all.

This time, the number of 6000 to [-] people made Li Shen feel that there were enough people.

The enemy troops also discovered Li Shen's convoy and rushed over with a roar.

"Your Majesty, can we win?"

Wu Mei stood beside Li Shen and asked worriedly as she looked at the Tubo cavalry approaching from afar.

"Don't worry, I just saw that their equipment is not good. They only wear full-body armor in front and leather armor in the back. They hold scimitars. They shouldn't be real cavalry."

Li Shen held Wu Mei's hand to express comfort.

The two sides were soon within a mile of each other, and the Tubo cavalry also stopped. It must have been that the other general found that the palace was already well prepared, and there was no advantage of a surprise attack, and it was very likely that he was hit by the opponent's repeated attacks.

So I stopped to observe the formation at the palace.

The Tibetan general leading the team this time was named Gar Chizheng Zandhuo, and his official position was on behalf of the original. This time, Zampo Songtsen Gampo personally ordered him to come here to intercept and kill a prince of the Tang Dynasty.

And the information given was that there were 500 cavalry. This time he brought 6000 people, [-] regular cavalry, and [-] light cavalry, which were actually skirmishers.

But they were all elite soldiers who had followed him and fought against Tuyuhun.

During this period, Tubo's various technologies were not mature enough, and many iron tools were smuggled from the Tang Dynasty.

Most of their cavalry are light cavalry, wearing animal skins, and not many can wear armor.

This time, in order to intercept and kill a prince of the Tang Dynasty, dispatching two thousand cavalry was considered serious.

Why Datang was able to defeat many with less in many cases was mainly due to weapons and equipment.

Especially the Xuanjia Army in Li Shimin's hands can be said to be invincible so far.

Gar Chizheng Chanzhuo made a battle plan after just observing for a moment.

Two thousand cavalry opened the way, forming an awl shape, and drove straight towards the carriage in the middle of the opponent's formation. Thousands of light cavalry were separated on the left and right to interfere with mounted fire.

Their mission is not to eliminate each other, they only need to kill the prince in the carriage and leave. Moreover, the other party only uses the carriage for fortification, not a high wall.

He thinks it is very simple. The wolf pack tactic of harassing left and right is also a classic tactic in the grassland. They rely on the characteristics of grassland horses to run faster than the horses in the Central Plains to carry out surprise attacks and escapes.

At the order of Gar Chizheng Zanzhuo, the cavalry began to charge. Qin Huaidao had been paying attention to Xue Rengui's command flag. In the absence of radio, the army could only watch the command flag.

It's not like the general in the novel who roars and tens of thousands of troops move into action.

If these thousands of people give you a loudspeaker, you won’t be able to hear it from behind.

If you are wrong at this time, after the war is over, you will have to receive military punishment regardless of victory or defeat.

Li Shen stood on the carriage shaft and nervously watched the situation on the battlefield. He has never experienced such a war scene before,

Li Shen thought at this time: If he traveled through time, it would be great to have some skills or something.

When the time comes, I will be able to hold Fang Tian's painted halberd in my hand, rush into the enemy's army, and take the general's head like a bag, or kill all directions with seven in and seven out. What an awesome Klaas.

It's a pity that the angle when I crossed was not as good as those who were hit by cars or struck by lightning.

Just as Li Shen was thinking wildly, the other party was already more than 300 steps away.

Xue Rengui also waved his hand, and the flag bearer at the height next to him waved his flag.

Qin Huaidao raised his spear high and roared, then rushed towards the opponent.

The cavalry's combat effectiveness is greatest only when it charges.

Xue Rengui also ordered the royal palace's cavalry battalion to set off quickly and advance hand in hand with Zuo Wuwei on the outside. As soon as they reached a distance, they would start shooting at random, first shooting horses and then people.

As soon as the horse falls, the man falls to the ground. Trample him to death.

Zuo Wuwei is indeed a skilled rider. Not only is he a good horse, but he also has superb riding skills. He can lean forward to reduce resistance and allow the horse to accelerate quickly.

The distance between the two sides was 150 steps in a moment.

The Tubo horsemen have already begun to bend their bows and set up arrows.

The palace's cavalry battalion was already ready, so there was no need to order the team to deploy instantly for rapid fire.

All of a sudden, I heard the sound of bows and strings coming in an endless stream.

In an instant, each of the five hundred cavalrymen shot at least ten arrows, followed immediately by the sound of bows and arrows piercing the air from far to near. .

Five thousand arrows flew straight towards the opponent's front line.

Whoosh~~~Whoosh~~~Whoosh~~~Whoosh~~~~Whoosh~~~~~~

Of course Gar Chizheng Chanzhuo saw this scene, but he smiled disdainfully. A prince cannot bring out any famous generals.

Otherwise, at such a distance, accuracy aside, the lethality would have reached its end. Not to mention armor, even leather armor may not be able to be broken.

Just when he was about to laugh, he heard the sound of people shouting and hooting from the front of the team.

"Ah~~~" Hiss~~~" "Ah~~~" Hiss~~~" "Ah~~~" Hiss~~~"

"Ah~~ah~~" (I imagined the sound of a horse)

The neighing of horses and the screams of people were intertwined, making Gar Chizheng Chanzhuo's heart tense.

But at this time, he was not allowed to think too much. Under the leadership of Qin Huaidao, Zuo Wuwei's elite cavalry drew a small arc, avoiding the fallen horses in the Tubo front line and the crowd on the ground. The position is inserted diagonally.

Tubo, whose formation had changed due to the obstruction in the front, was suddenly knocked over by the man hit by Zuo Wuwei, and a gap was torn open.

After Zuo Wuwei broke away from the Tubo team, he made a maneuver and prepared for a second charge.

The Tubo team had been broken into two sections by Zuo Wuwei. The place in the middle was filled with corpses and horses without owners.

The most important thing in cavalry charge combat is to maintain the formation. When you encounter an enemy, you can shoot again. No matter whether the enemy is hit or not, or if the hit is not fatal, you cannot shoot again.

Because as soon as you pause, the epiphany behind you will stop. You can only have one chance to take action, and then it will be the next target. As for this person, he will naturally have teammates behind him to do the finishing touches.

This time, Tubo was also careless. They did not expect that Tang's bows and arrows would have such a long range and lethality, so they suffered a loss. This time at least 700 people were lost.
