Established a thousand-year family from the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 346 Yanhou ([-])

Same day
When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were immersed in the joy of getting sister flowers, the hesitant Zhang Yan was finally persuaded by Gongsun Xu to pull out a hundred thousand Black Mountain Army from Taihang Mountain.

Although they are powerful, these peasant rebels all have one thing in common, that is, they are mobs.

The characteristic of the mob is that they can only fight against the wind, not against the wind, so as long as they create the illusion that they are against the wind, they will panic and then lose their positions.

As long as they can behead their coach, or smash their camp, or make them feel panic, then the remaining 10 people will be scattered.

It looks very scary, but in fact, only Zhang Yan and the thousands of elite Black Mountain troops around Zhang Yan have to deal with, and the remaining [-] ordinary Black Mountain troops will disperse in a hurry.

The fighting power of these elite Montenegrin troops was almost the same as that of Yuan Shao's first-line troops.

At the beginning, Huangfusong's 2 men chased 30 Yellow Turbans, and Zhu Jun's 3000 men chased more than 5 Yellow Turbans. They all took advantage of the weaknesses of the mob.

Late night
One hundred thousand Montenegrin troops are camping overnight, many bonfires are lit, and elite Montenegrin bandits are patrolling all around.

suddenly!

There was a tremor from the ground.

Boom boom boom!
"Enemy attack!"

Zhang Yan hurriedly asked the elite Black Mountain Army to appease other Black Mountain Army instead of defending against the enemy.

"Didn't it mean that Yuan Shao's main force went to besiege Yi Jing? Why are there still extra troops to attack us at night?" Zhang Yan was very puzzled.

"Maybe it's just a partial division, deliberately scaring us and slowing down our marching speed." Gongsun Xu was worried that Zhang Yan would retreat and not go to rescue.

Just when the soldiers of the Black Mountain Army panicked and began to pick up their weapons.

"kill!"

"Hebei court pillar Yan Liang is here! The thief chief is killed!"

"Hebei Court Zhuwen Chou is here! The thief chief is killed!"

"Hebei's court pillars are here to watch! The bandit chief is killed!"

"Hebei court pillar Zhang He is here! The bandit chief is killed!"

"The rebel Gongsun Zan is dead, why should you risk your life for a dead man!"

Four fierce men led tiger and leopard cavalry into the Heishan army camp, hacking and killing while spreading rumors that Gongsun Zan was dead, thus shaking the morale of the Heishan army.

A thousand mounted cavalry charged forward, and four thousand brave light cavalry charged around the flanks.

This is the first time that people in the Central Plains have experienced the horror of armored cavalry with horseshoes on both sides.

"Release the arrow! Release the arrow!"

Zhang Yan turned pale with shock, and quickly asked the archer to release the arrow.

shhhhhh!
Thousands of arrows were fired all over the sky.

clang--

The arrows hit the armor without causing the slightest damage. Only two tiger riders were accidentally hit by the arrows in the face without the protection of the armor, and they fell to the ground with a painful wail.

"Damn it, why does Yuan Shao have so many Lu Bu?" Zhang Yan was terrified. He had only seen this kind of cavalry charge forward under the rain of arrows a few years ago when Lu Bu was fighting with Lu Bu. The armored cavalry rushed to his side against the rain of arrows, scaring him so much that he left the army and ran away.

Generally speaking, cavalry cannot charge against the rain of arrows, and they are easily shot into a sieve. Back then, Gongsun Zan's Baima Yicong was shot by Yuan Shao's crossbowmen.

But Yuan Shao's tiger and leopard cavalry are not ordinary cavalry, they are armored cavalry half a version ahead of the times.

At the critical moment, Zhang Yan sent his cavalry troops to fight against the tiger and leopard cavalry.

This is a common tactic to protect the coach. If the enemy suddenly attacks the coach, and the main force nearby has no time to line up for support, you can let the faster cavalry unit go up to resist first, and let the cavalry delay time first, and then The main force took the opportunity to form an army formation to counterattack.

However, these cavalry of the Montenegrin Army could not defeat the tiger and leopard cavalry in hand-to-hand combat. The saber of the tiger and leopard cavalry could easily cut through their flesh and blood, but their saber could not do anything to the armor of the tiger cavalry.

"Don't get entangled with these black mountain bandit cavalry, directly attack their commander's camp, capture the thief first and capture the king!" At the critical moment, Wang Jue directly passed through the troops of the black mountain bandit cavalry, and rushed to Zhang Yan, who was commanding the battle.

In the darkness and chaos, everyone couldn't see the situation clearly. Wang Jue was quick to use his wits to cut off the head of a black bandit, and then raised it high and shouted: "Zhang Yan is dead! Zhang Yan is dead!"

Zhang Yan led more than 1000 black mountain army elites to form a long spear formation to defend, but Wang Jue's shout was not heard amidst all kinds of noise.

But the black bandits around Wang Jue heard it, and their will to fight was slightly weakened.

"kill!"

clang--

Regardless of Wang Jue's disregard, he kept rushing to kill, ignoring the black bandit behind him.

puff!

"Wow!--"

A black bandit leader stabbed Wang Jue's horse with a spear in his hand.

But they didn't rely on the impact of the horses' frontal charge, nor did they form a spear formation obliquely inserted on the ground. It's just that a simple long spear couldn't pierce the horse armor because it wasn't strong enough.

The tip of the spear pierced the horse armor, only to spark sparks, and then the leader of the black bandit was chopped on the neck by Wang Jue, and blood gushed out.

"Stab them in the legs!"

"Stab them in the legs!"

As if going back hundreds of years ago, when the serf uprising army in Luoyueyuan was charged by Wang Jia's cavalry for the first time, the Black Mountain Army was also panicked and at a loss. The only way the leader of the Black Mountain Army Zhang Yan could think of was to let everyone assassinate The horse legs of the tiger and leopard, because the horse armor of the tiger and leopard did not protect the horse's legs.

At this moment, the mob recalled the fear of being dominated by armored cavalry.

"I can only run away!" Zhang Yan realized that Wang Jue, the God of Killing, was about to kill him, so he didn't want to fight at all, so he quickly got on a horse and fled westward, leaving behind his [-] troops to run alone.

Immediately afterwards, the Black Mountain Army was like a landslide. The boss took the lead and ran away, and the people around him also hurriedly ran away. Run away.

Many soldiers of the Montenegrin Army didn't know why they were running. They just saw their companions running, so they hurriedly ran with them, so as not to die on the battlefield if they ran too slowly.

Like a sharp knife, the tiger and leopard rider ruthlessly penetrated into the camp of the commander of the [-] Black Mountain Army, and directly beat Zhang Yan, the leader of the Black Mountain Army, to leave the army and flee.

Many soldiers of the Montenegrin Army found out that they lost after fighting. They didn't understand why they lost, anyway, they lost for no reason.

Just like when Liu Xiu only used meteors to defeat the 40 Mang army around Wang Yi, the remaining [-] Wang Mang army dispersed in a hurry.

The five thousand tiger and leopard riders just overwhelmed the three thousand elite soldiers around Zhang Yan, and the remaining one hundred thousand Black Mountain Army soldiers all scattered and fled.

In the battle of Yishui, Yuan Shao's five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry defeated the one hundred thousand Black Mountain army, and the world was shocked. Everyone realized that the form of warfare in the future will change, and a new type of arms called armed cavalry will rule the world.

In this battle, the low-level soldier Wang Jue rushed to the front and successfully scared Zhang Yan away, letting Zhang Yan directly abandon the [-] troops and run alone. kind demeanor.
