Chapter 547 Comparing Which Kills More?

Xie Junyou has been fighting with Zhang Guangda's cavalry battalion all the time, although they are not as elite as Zhang Guangda's cavalry battalion in terms of equipment, patrol, and even coordination between cavalry.

But his team of bandits and cavalry scattered widely. Although their battle formation was not as strict as that of the official army, they were more flexible and changeable, and they were evenly matched against the official army for nearly an hour.

Although both sides had some losses, neither of them could defeat the other in a short period of time, not to mention that Xie Junyou was only fighting from a distance, and never had close contact with Zhang Guangda. But it can't be used.

Just when Xie Junyou had gradually adapted to this style of play, a large puff of smoke and dust suddenly rushed from his right side, and there was even a "rumbling" hoofbeat in the smoke and dust, like a large cloud that could swallow everything. Rolling like a mudslide.

Xie Junyou panicked for a while, he hastily ordered his cavalry to regroup quickly, but they confronted Zhang Guangda for almost an hour, and everyone had already adapted to this new way of teasing each other.

Now, more than [-] cavalry troops under Xie Junyou's command are scattered all over the place, how can they gather at once? After all, these are horse thieves, mountain bandits, and some officers and soldiers from all over the west of Henan. .

Although there are some old horse thieves who have followed King Chuang for many years as the backbone, they have not received formal training like the officers and soldiers, and they gather and disperse according to orders.

These thieves are all newly gathered together, and the orders are still very simple, and the cooperation of each of them has not yet formed a tacit understanding. Cooperate.

Xie Junyou yelled for a while and only got together less than [-] horse thieves by his side, and the rest were still more than ten or dozens of horses gathered together to fight each other with the cavalry battalion of Zhang Guangda who was chasing from afar. middle.

…………

Zhang Cheng shouted loudly to Lin Fangping who was beside him: "Go over there, stop the bandits who come back, shoot guns close to you first, and then fight!"

Lin Fangping responded and led the tiger guards under his command towards the south. While riding, he did not forget to signal to Su Huhu and Mo Zhigen to ride and shoot outside to contain the invading cavalry, and to cover himself leading the charge.

He led the hundred tiger guards under his command to ride their horses and let the Rongguang cavalry charge forward. All of them were controlling the horse with their legs, and each held a short pistol in their left and right hands. They charged forward in two files.

When he was about [-] steps away from the cavalry, Lin Fangping clamped his legs on the horse, controlled the horse with his waist, and then turned to the west. The two rows of cavalry behind him followed him and turned. A situation of juxtaposition.

"Bang... bang bang... bang bang..."

When the cavalry on both sides were more than [-] steps away from each other, bursts of gunshots rang out, and the dust mixed with smoke dispersed instantly. Amid the pungent sulfur smell, the bandits fell off their horses one by one.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of screams and screams, some from the army, and some from the army. The distance between the two sides was too close, and the cavalry from the army also shot many spears, iron bones, hatchets, etc., and some of the officers and soldiers were occasionally hit The same is true for those who turned over and fell off their horses, but there were more cavalry and horses who fell to the ground.

The screams of people mixed with the neighing of war horses, and as the rising smoke slowly dispersed, the cavalry from both sides had also left the battlefield just now, leaving only the bright red on the ground and the corpses lying on their backs , the bursts of wailing and mourning continued for a long time.

…………

Ever since Chongzhen's 11-year reign as king, Zhang Cheng has never had the opportunity to go to the battlefield in person. Today, he once again led the army on a gallop and such a fierce killing field, which once again aroused the pride in his original body.

When Lin Fangping led the army to the south, Zhang Cheng shouted to Chen De again: "Chen Qianzong, we have more thieves than one. How about it?"

Chen De also shouted excitedly: "How dare you compare with Zhang Shuai, Chen De is fighting hard to kill the thief!"

"Hahaha……"

Zhang Cheng laughed loudly, he controlled the horse with the rein in his left hand, took the saber stick from the victory hook with his right hand, and held it in his hand, shouting: "Kill, first disperse the gathered bandits, and then chase them down one by one!"

Immediately afterwards, he shouted to Zhang Chengfang and Zhang Jintai who were following behind him: "Boys, kill the thief, it's time for you to make meritorious service."

The two boys, Zhang Chengfang and Zhang Jintai, have been following Zhang Cheng's side. Except for the capture of Yanshi County some time ago, they have not experienced any particularly large battles.

As for the rescue of Kaifeng, the two of them didn't have the opportunity to participate in the battle, and they were already very anxious. This time, it can be regarded as a chance to show their abilities, so why not be excited.

There were patches of red clouds on their faces, and they roared loudly to greet the Boy Scout soldiers behind them to rush to Xie Junyou in front.

Chen Deben on the other side is from a military family. Although he dare not say that he has been in battle for a long time, he is at least a young general who has practiced martial arts since he was a child and joined the army at a young age. Sincere ideas.

Now, seeing Zhang Cheng galloping towards Xie Junyou, he also yelled and ordered the servants around him to rush forward, and ordered the two servants to lead a hundred horses to go forward and intercept the small groups of intruders who were scattered around. cavalry.

Zhang Cheng and Chen De led less than [-] elite cavalry from the official army, and rushed towards Xie Junyou's [-] cavalry cavalry who had just gathered together like a red cloud. everything of!
…………

Zhang Guangda had also received the military order from the sentinel cavalry, he was still the same as before, sometimes advancing slowly, sometimes rushing forward, sometimes standing still as a whole team, teasing the less than [-] cavalry led by Xie Junyou, the invading army in the south.

During the nearly one-hour cavalry battle, most of the time the two sides used long-distance cavalry and shooting. Even if there were occasional contacts, they all passed by, but both sides also lost dozens of cavalry.

It's just that Zhang Guangda's fine cavalry are protected by light armor such as leather armor and cloth armor. Even if they are shot or chopped, they are not fatal. Obviously bigger.

Now, Zhang Guangda also saw the large cloud of smoke rising from behind the cavalry, so he naturally knew that it was the right-wing cavalry led by his general master Zhang Cheng.

The opportunity was fleeting, Zhang Guangda didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, he hastily ordered the more than [-] elite cavalry under his command to gallop forward. They used whistle as the unit, and the hundred or so elite cavalry formed an independent fighting team to charge forward The cavalry team broke into the army.

Amidst the roaring and killing sounds, the elite cavalry of the officers and soldiers urged their horses forward like tigers descending the mountain, while the cavalry cavalry on the opposite side were in the opposite state.

They were all stunned, all flustered, looking around in a state of bewilderment, there were some old thieves and newly recruited officers and soldiers who had a special ability.

That is the ability to escape, and it is this specialty that enables them to survive to this day in such an era of frequent wars.
