Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2468
As long as the infantry can entangle the armored cavalry of the Tang army without hesitating casualties, Mu'awiyah can command the light cavalry of his own side to resist the light cavalry of the Tang army, and fight and retreat. Tang Jun had to watch helplessly as he led the army away calmly.

After Heng Ruosi, the valleys are dense, the lakes are star-studded, there are Arab soldiers, and the cavalry is useless...

Mu'awiya pursed his lips, put his hands on the handle of the scimitar at his waist, and stared into the distance.

Beside him, Ye Zide looked excited, eager to try, and even the horse under his crotch was so excited that "Herod" hissed because of the upcoming battle, and his four hooves kept digging the sand on the ground.

The long wind that blew across the river from time to time seemed to be stagnated by the tension before the great war. There was only the sound of roaring horseshoes in the sky, and the cavalry of the Tang army came rushing like landslides and landslides!
Mu'awiyah had already held the reins, and he would give the order to retreat when Tang Jun's armored cavalry rushed into the phalanx.

The light cavalry who originally followed the two wings of the armored cavalry suddenly accelerated after seeing the Arab infantry lined up on the spot, surpassing the armored cavalry at a faster speed, and went straight to the Arab infantry who had already lined up.

Infantry fighting against cavalry always suffers, because the mobility of the two sides is too different. Mu'awiyah has already prepared for this, but the light cavalry shoots with bows and crossbows from the outside, disrupting the formation of the infantry, and then uses the heavy cavalry shock.

However, the Tang army's light cavalry was dispatched a bit late. At this moment, the armored cavalry is less than a hundred meters away from the infantry phalanx. In such a short period of time, the armored cavalry has already rushed unstoppably before the light cavalry caused too much damage to the square formation. into battle.

Mu'awiya shook his head. The strength of the Tang army was indeed strong, but their commander seemed to be a little stupid. He couldn't grasp the rapidly changing situation on the battlefield in time, so as to make effective responses. This is beyond words.

Waste is one person's business, but an incompetent commander can exhaust the entire army to death!
If all the commanders of the Tang army are like this, then the war to conquer the Tang Dynasty in the future must be much easier...

Mu'awiya was a little happy in his heart, but what happened next made his eyes widen suddenly, and his heart seemed to be hit hard by an invisible hammer!
As he expected, the light cavalry of the Tang army vacated on horseback with their feet on the stirrups. This was an action made to maintain balance before shooting. He didn't take out the bow and crossbow, but asked for black things from the bag on his back...

Then they held the black lump in one hand, took out the fire folder with the other, and shook it slightly on the horse's back, sparks flashed from the fire folder, and the black lump was attached to it.

Like a gust of wind, the light cavalry rushed over the edge of the Arabian phalanx, and black bumps were thrown high by them, falling far into the phalanx.

"Boom boom boom!"

It was as if someone had angered the Nine Heavens Thunder God, and thunder after thunder exploded from the phalanx like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. The flames rose, and the smoke filled the air. The broken fragments were thrown in all directions by the powerful airflow, and the violent force smashed these fragments. When it was sent into the body of the Arab soldier, the shock wave of the explosion even lifted the body of the Arab soldier like a sack.

The Arab soldiers in the phalanx cried and howled like ghosts and wolves, and there were many casualties.

Muawiya stared dumbfounded at what happened in front of him, and almost regretted that he pulled out his waist knife and killed himself on the spot!

Shocking Thunder!

This is thunder!
The merchant ships of the Tang Dynasty arrived at the coast of the Red Sea the year before last under the protection of its court navy, and the "shocking thunder" that the Arabs exchanged for high-quality war horses has already become a super weapon that the nobles of the Arab world have become dismayed by!

It's just that these thunderbolts were tightly suppressed by the Hashemite family, and none of them were allowed to be left outside. Therefore, with the power of Mu'awiyah, he only witnessed the earthquake at a banquet with his cousin Caliph. Tianlei's test explosion has never been able to be possessed.

So he had long forgotten about this thing, and only now did he suddenly remember that this Thunderbolt was sent to Medina by the Tang trade, how could it not be equipped in the Tang army?
Mistake, misstep!
Mu'awiya, who was originally as firm as a mountain and unmoved by the wind, lost all his restraint and calm in an instant, and couldn't help but beat his feet and chest, regretting it was too late.

However, the distance of more than a hundred feet was short for the charging heavy cavalry. The Arabian phalanx was blown into chaos by the thunderbolt, and the armored cavalry that followed had rushed into the formation!
The combination of horses, soldiers, and armor is a huge weight, and when this weight comes with the speed of the horse's full charge, the power generated is unrivaled.

The armored cavalry slammed into the formation fiercely, and the soldiers in the front row were knocked out screaming miserably, their bodies dancing uncontrollably in mid-air, and when they landed, they had already sprayed blood and died on the spot.

Can manpower resist the power of the cavalry charging?

Just this one hit, even if there is a shield blocking it, the bones and tendons will still be broken, the internal organs will be shattered, and the dead can't die anymore.

Equipped iron cavalry unstoppably rushed into the broken and chaotic phalanx. A sharp and narrow Mo Dao seemed to come from the sickle of hell death. The cold light flickered between the vertical and horizontal swings, and the blood spurted and the stumps flew horizontally. Harvesting recklessly with life.

When the formation of infantry is chaotic, it is the saddest thing in the world for such armored cavalry. The brave Arab soldiers in the past were slashed and killed like lambs. Blood spurted into the air and splashed on the ground. It was rendered blood red.

All the Arabs watched tremblingly, with chills in their hearts.

Once upon a time, they were the ones who slaughtered other tribes. How did they ever have the experience of being slaughtered by others like this?Human cruelty is relative, and one can cruelly disregard the life and death of others, but it definitely does not mean that one still ignores life and death when one is on the verge of desperation.

Mu'awiya's eyes were about to split open, the hand holding the knife handle trembled slightly, and his veins burst out.

Because of his own negligence, these more than ten thousand infantrymen became the targets of massacre by the cavalry of the Tang army, and all his plans to retreat calmly were disrupted, and his mind went blank.

But in the end it was a hero. After a brief shock, he quickly recovered and shouted loudly: "Everyone, retreat!"

He would rather die than be humiliated in front of the Tang people, but he had to retreat!

Once these infantry were slaughtered, the cavalry of the Tang army could calmly join the main force of the infantry that had already retreated, and be followed by such a brutal and powerful Tang army... I shudder to think about it.

Only by organizing all the cavalry, cutting off the rear of the infantry, constantly harassing and blocking the large-scale charge of the Tang cavalry, can it be possible to bring more soldiers back to Damascus alive.

However, the vastness of the Western Regions and the Gobi desert are most conducive to long-distance raids by cavalry. When the remaining cavalry is exhausted by the Tang army bit by bit, why can't I?

From here to Suiye City, and then to Hengluosi, it is nearly a thousand miles away. For such a long and smooth journey, I don’t know how many Arab warriors will lie on it, and use their own blood to fertilize the land of the Western Regions... …

*****
Xue Rengui's iron spear and white horse took the lead.

Immediately after the armored cavalry slammed into the Arab phalanx, the iron spear in his hand swallowed the letter like a poisonous dragon, constantly reaping the lives of the enemy.

The commander took the lead, and what he thought was a fierce battle turned into such an easy massacre. The morale of the cavalry beside him was greatly boosted, and they desperately brandished Mo Dao to chop and charge. The enemy has been defeated!
Looking back, the billowing yellow sand has been completely soaked in blood, glowing red, countless Arab infantry struggled and howled in the pool of blood, or knelt down to beg for mercy, or swung their swords to fight back, but all ended up being killed without exception. The heavy armored cavalry beheaded ruthlessly.

During the cavalry's first charge, there will never be any captives, and all enemies standing in front of them will be torn to pieces, there is no mercy.

Xue Rengui flicked his spear, turned his head again, stared at the Arab army that was slowly retreating south, and shouted: "Follow me to kill the enemy!"

Leaping the horse and raising the spear first, the horse soared into the air with all four hooves, and the blood-red cloak fluttering in the wind behind him, with a majestic and murderous look, he chased and killed the Arab army.

Behind him, the light cavalry circled the two wings of the Arab infantry phalanx like a gust of wind, and then gathered together again, following Xue Rengui's horse galloping away, and went straight to the retreating Arab army.

However, the general armored cavalry of the demon gods came to the world and did not have the ability to chase after them. At this moment, they all jumped off their horses, still wearing heavy armor, and calmly killed the enemies and gathered the prisoners.

Broken leaf water rushes across one side of the battlefield, the river whimpers, the long wind blows, and the scorching sun in the sky seems to be reflected blood red by the blood on the ground.
