Late Tang Dynasty: I

Chapter 327 Mo Daojun’s achievements

Xue Dan led two thousand cavalry in pursuit, but he suffered a lot as soon as he came out of the battle. As usual, the light cavalry did not come into contact with them at all, and always kept a distance of eighty or ninety steps.

And what greets Xue Dan's cavalry is always cold arrows.

Thousands of arrows were fired in volley, and at least one or two hundred Youzhou riders fell to the ground at a time. This kind of attack that ignored armor made Xue Dan feel chilly. After pursuing for four to five hundred steps, half of the elite riders fell off their horses.

"What the hell is this!"

Xue Dan was beaten to the point of feeling aggrieved and panicked.

"withdraw troops!"

If you don't fight, if you continue to chase, you will be reimbursed sooner or later.

Xue was so indifferent that he didn't drag his feet. He immediately led the army to turn around and returned to the army.

He never imagined that the return of the army would be the beginning of a greater disaster than the pursuit.

When the light cavalry saw the Youzhou army returning, they did not hesitate at all and turned their horses to pursue them.

The offensive and defensive momentum immediately changed.

The horses they rode were all carefully selected, with excellent endurance and explosive power, and a small load. They quickly pursued them to the range of the bow and arrow.

You must know that turning around to shoot is quite inconvenient. Both the rate of fire and accuracy are greatly reduced. However, chasing and riding a gun, shooting from the front, has a wide field of vision, which is obviously much more convenient.

Originally, he could only shoot one or two arrows per hundred steps, but now he can shoot four or five arrows. The sky and the ground were covered with arrows for a while. In the blink of an eye, all the rest of Xue Dan's men fell off their horses. Even Xue Dan himself was hit by several arrows and fell under the horse. , and it seems that he will not survive.

"This……"

Li Kuangwei looked at this scene dully. The two thousand fine cavalry were just gone, without any waves appearing.

These are some monsters!

Even Suo Xun and Xie Yanzhang were stunned. These 3000 people were too strong. On this empty battlefield, with this group of light cavalry to contain them, they killed a large number of enemy troops.

Morale will inevitably wax and wane, just like cheating.

3000 people are all strong and strong, and they are superb in riding and shooting, but why don't they wear armor, and they rarely even have short weapons? At this time, Li Kuangwei gradually came to his senses.

But it's too late!

Seeing this group of people coming up again, drawing their bows and setting up arrows, Li Kuangwei's teeth were chattering. Shi Yaofang, the commander of the Han and Horse Army, said to him: "These cavalry are running back and forth for several miles, and they are short of horse power. You can lead the cavalry here." When we attack, we must kill all these soldiers and horses before withdrawing our troops!"

"promise!"

More than [-] Youzhou Jingqi came out to attack, determined to kill all the Charming tribe.

But Zhaerming did not panic and kept his horse speed. If the Youzhou soldiers were fast, he would be fast. If the Youzhou soldiers were slow, he would also be slow. The direction he was leading was to the rear of the Youzhou soldiers.

When Suo Xun saw the situation on the battlefield, he was overjoyed. Originally, there were more than 1 Youzhou elite cavalry, and he had assigned soldiers and horses to protect the two wings. Now, two thousand have gone, and another five thousand have left, leaving only more than 3000 remaining cavalry.

As for the composition of the Modao Army, [-] Modao troops were the main force, plus [-] archers, [-] elite cavalry, and later [-] Wei Bo elite troops were added. Most of these people existed as auxiliary troops and were not used as combat forces for the time being. .

Originally, there were [-] Modao troops on each wing and [-] cavalry holding down the formation. But now, the defensive pressure on the two wings was suddenly reduced, and Suo Xun could put all the main attack force into the front line.

one hundred steps
eighty steps

fifty steps

thirty steps

ten steps
The soldiers held their swords tightly, their faces turned pale and they were sweating profusely. Most of them were on the battlefield for the first time.

Afraid, must be afraid.

What supports them is nothing more than a breath, and this breath cannot be let out.

kill!

Suo Xun did not command from the back, but rushed to the front. Behind him was the commander's flag position.

puff!
puff!puff!puff!
Bows and arrows were flying all over the sky, and the large shields and spears of the Youzhou infantry in front. For the unobstructed Mo Dao army, the Mingguang armor on their bodies was their confidence.

Suo Xun jumped into the formation alone and chopped down the giant shield in front of him with one strike, splitting the shield soldiers into two.The general's bravery instantly ignited the blood of the soldiers. They didn't even know how to swing the Mo Dao in their hands. They mechanically looked at the bandit army in front of them, killing without thinking or hesitating...

There is a big difference between training and fighting on the battlefield. Even in the Mo Dao Army, there were many people vomiting and dazed looking at the severed bodies and limbs everywhere.

But there is always a string that is stretched, that is, they cannot flee. The bloody case of Youyu Lin's army has been told to all the armies.

Follow your companions, follow Pao Ze, and kill...

They quickly penetrated the Youzhou Army's shield array. Against such heavy armored infantry, bows and arrows were ineffective, and the spears had to be found in the right place. There was only one chance. When the spear thrust out, it missed, and Mo Dao's blade also followed suit. Come up.

Although this group of Youzhou soldiers were brave and brave, their morale was shattered at this time. By the time they reached the formation, the defeat had already begun.

Starting from the flanks first, waves of people dropped their weapons and hurriedly retreated. Du Yuhou led his army to kill the defeated soldiers, but before the army could stabilize, a bigger rout had already begun. Abandoning weapons and armor, he fled in a hurry...

At this time, Li Kuangwei let out a long sigh. He was defeated like a mountain. This kind of defeat could no longer be restored by human power. He really couldn't figure out how to break the Modao formation and how to break the light cavalry just now.

"Jie Shuai, withdraw!"

"If you don't withdraw, it will be too late!"

"Keep the green hills here, don't worry about not having enough wood to burn..."

Li Kuangwei mounted his horse and paced back and forth. The Modao army's forward was less than fifty steps away from him. The bows and arrows had already been fired in front of the horse. The soldiers in front kept squeezing the rear formation. Even if he pressed the cavalry army up, it was of no avail.

Looking at the generals around him, Li Kuangwei suddenly felt chilled. Will these people kill him to receive the merit?
The more I think about it, the more frightened it becomes.

"withdraw!"

Li Kuangwei hurriedly led his cavalry to retreat. As for the infantry, he could no longer control that much.

"The thieves should leave..."

Suo Xun hurriedly dispatched all the cavalry...

……

Xie Yanzhang, who had been playing soy sauce throughout the whole process, sighed: "It is said that the Modao Army is the best in the world, and it is true to its name!"

If his Zhengzhou Army and Mo Dao Army were to clash, they might not be able to hold on for more than a few breaths!
Not to mention these equipment, even with these equipment, there are only a few people in his army who can wear these heavy armors and pick up dozens of kilograms of Mo Dao.

At this time, it was left to Xie Yanzhang's Zhengzhou Army to pursue the defeated troops and clean up the battlefield.

Suo Xun looked to the left and right. There was still panic on their faces, but their eyes were much firmer. Mo Daojun, who had seen blood, had a chilling aura. After this battle, Mo Daojun was different from before. It seemed that Infused with soul, it lives up to its name.

"The whole army!"

"promise"

……

Shi Yaofang, the commander of the Lulongfan Han Horse Army, endured the pressure of being shot in large numbers and chased Zhar Ming's light cavalry, but could not catch up. He was led by Zha Ming in a big circle and returned to the battlefield. At this time The number of people is already less than three thousand.

But the scene he saw in front of him shocked Shi Yaofang even more. The Youzhou army collapsed. Coach Li Kuangwei led the remaining cavalry in a wolf rush, followed by a group of cavalry.

"Failed!"

Shi Yaofang hurriedly led the army to join forces with Li Kuangwei and headed north along the Hutuo River.

In the north of Anping County, they met Li Cunxiao's cavalry again.

Several cavalry groups fought in a melee, and the Youzhou soldiers were defeated. Li Kuangwei was not interested in fighting and galloped on his horse.

By the time they arrived at Feng County, the remaining troops had less than 500 people. They were all wounded, hungry, and horses were scarce, so they finally got rid of the pursuers.

"Jie Shuai, where are we going now?"

"Zhenzhou!"

"We only have this few people, will Wang Rong still wait for me?"

Li Kuangwei said: "Wang Rong also rebelled against the imperial court, it is not his fault!"
