As the dull horn sounded, Liu Zhijun could see Liang Jun's flag moving on the high platform deep in the Tang Army, and thousands of heavy cavalry, all armored, came towards the Tang Army's shield formation to the west.
Almost at the same time, the two groups of light cavalry on the flanks of Liang Jun also rode out at the same time.
The roaring sound of horse hooves shook the earth, making the whole world seem to be shrouded in the deterrence of the cavalry.
Wang Yanzhang was in the middle of Liang Jun's army. He just frowned and stared at the movements of Tang Jun on the opposite side.
Soon, Liang Jun's heavy cavalry had galloped across half the distance of the battlefield, but the Tang army on the opposite side was still motionless.
Even if the Tang army dispatched cavalry at this time, it would not help. Before the horse could pick up speed, his own horse was already galloping past.
But Wang Yanzhang felt inexplicably irritated during his snack, and he looked back at the top of Luoyang City. With his eyesight, he could naturally clearly see Zhu Youzhen standing up excitedly under the square umbrella, and beside him, Shi Yao, dressed in purple, was still covering her mouth and laughing softly.
There is quite a bit of the artistic conception of playing with the princes by beacon fire and making beautiful women laugh.
Wang Yanzhang cursed in his heart, turned his head, and looked far ahead. At this moment, the Daliang cavalry was no more than a few hundred steps away from the Tang army's shield formation.
But the Tang Army camp was still completely silent at this moment.
Moreover, Wang Yanzhang could notice that the shield formation set up by the Tang army was really too long.
The sitting horse seemed to feel Wang Yanzhang's irritability, swinging its head and digging at the soil with its hooves.
Wang Yanzhang tilted his head and ordered someone to fetch his iron spear, and then he calmed down a bit when he held it in his hand.
As for the soldiers at the front of the shield formation of the Tang Army on the opposite side, they could all see the bright armor on the opposite Liang soldiers and the light reflected from the weapons in their hands.
The sound of horseshoes hitting the ground was more like a knock in their hearts.
But they were all veterans who had experienced hundreds of battles. Although they had the instinct to tremble, they all had firm eyes and stared straight ahead without saying a word. They also held the heavy shields in their hands tighter.
Finally, in Wang Yanzhang's sight, a sound of drums suddenly sounded from deep in the Tang army. At the same time, the flag bearer responsible for delivering the order suddenly waved the military flag in his hand.
In an instant, the heavy black shields in a line of sight turned sideways, and a row of soldiers wearing bright red clothes leaned out.
And behind it, there were even several rows of people with the same decoration standing together.
And in each person's hand, he holds an object similar to a fire stick.
what!
Wang Yanzhang covered his eyes and subconsciously leaned forward on the horse.
At this moment, all the cavalry were only about 200 steps away from the Tang army.
The general riding on the horse next to Wang Yanzhang was also surprised at this moment. He looked forward to it and made some comments.
The next second, a series of sounds similar to firecrackers were heard, but the sound was far from comparable to that of firecrackers!
As the endless smoke rose, Wang Yanzhang could only see in shock that Liang Jun's heavy cavalry, who was rushing at the front, suddenly fell from his horse in response.
The horse they were sitting on was also frightened by these sounds. It neighed loudly and suddenly raised its front hooves uncontrollably, almost throwing Liang Bing off the horse.
But more importantly, countless Liang soldiers and horses fell down.
Before the sound stopped, Tang Jun in the first row immediately squatted down after firing the ammunition of his musket. The second row behind them suddenly raised their guns and fired.
Continuous smoke rose into the air, and then slowly dispersed in the sky.
Countless Liang Jun heavy cavalry galloped past. Under the volley fire of three rows of Tang Jun musketeers, their armor was pierced. They collapsed uncontrollably to the horse and were stepped on by the galloping horses' hooves.
What's more, the horses couldn't be controlled and abruptly stopped galloping forward. Then they were hit by the cavalry galloping from behind, flew forward, and finally died under the horses' hooves.
The Liang Army cavalry, which was originally able to tear apart the Tang Army's shield array, was instantly submerged in the continuous smoke, and then lost more than half of it under the combined impact of muskets and their own horse's hooves.
As for the armor and stomachs of those men and horses, they had been torn by musket fire, and gurgling blood seeped out from the holes before being stepped on by the horses' hooves.
There were only corpses of men and horses everywhere, and the heavy cavalry behind them who had not yet rushed in front of the Tang army reined in their horses to stop, or were forced to stop by sitting down horses.
Everyone seemed to be stunned at this moment. They were dumbfounded and allowed their horses to run around.
Whether it was Wang Yanzhang, Zhu Youzhen on top of the city, or countless soldiers and generals in the Liang Army, they all felt that their world view had been impacted beyond belief.
Even Shi Yao, with his eyes widened at this moment and his lips slightly open, but unable to close them, was holding the crenellations of the city wall in shock and staring at the battlefield in the distance.
But right in her sight, the Tang Army's shield formation, whether it was the sword-shielders or the unprecedented special units, quickly spread to both sides.
Deep in the camp, there were many soldiers wearing armor and holding horses. At this moment, with the sound of the horn, everyone quickly got on their horses and rode forward under the command of the flag bearer.
The rumble of horse hoofbeats sounded again, but this time it was coming from the Tang army on the opposite side.
The Liang Jun cavalry who were still in the center of the battlefield, whether they were heavy cavalry whose courage had been broken by muskets, or light cavalry who had been forcibly stopped, had a huge sense of crisis hanging over their hearts.
The cavalry of the Tang Army seemed to have lifted their horses up in an instant. Everyone was wearing armor and holding a horse, and in an instant they stepped across the battlefield, which was still groaning. Liang Bing pointed his body and raised his hand to kill a soldier. Liang Guo's cavalry, who turned around and fled in a hurry, dismounted their horses.
A loud sound of people shouting and horses neighing sounded on the battlefield. The Liang Guo cavalry in the front just wanted to escape from the battlefield, but the Liang Guo Qingqi following behind wanted to rush forward and fight. As for the heavy cavalrymen who had been killed countless times by Tang Jun's musketry, they were almost all frightened at this moment. They were still willing to obey any orders, but just wanted to escape.
In this way, the cavalry of the Liang State, which was neither up nor down, was suddenly rushed into the formation by the heavy cavalry of the Tang Army that was galloping at high speed.
In an instant, people fell on their backs and cried to the sky and the earth.
Wang Yanzhang, who was in Liang Jun's formation, couldn't bear to close his eyes. The changes on the battlefield were only changing rapidly. Even if he had the ability to save the world, he could no longer save these cavalry at this moment...
"Let the infantry on the left and right join the formation to cover the orderly evacuation of the army. Rely on the stronghold outside the city to guard against the Tang army's cavalry..."
Wang Yanzhang grabbed the iron gun in his hand and rode forward.
At this time, he had to go into battle himself.
But in his sight, the Tang Army on the opposite side suddenly let out an earth-shattering cheer.
But it seemed that he was coming out of the battle. Opposite the Tang army, there was also a figure riding a black horse and wearing light armor, slowly riding out.
