Chapter 2230: Defeat Changsun Wuji, decisive battle in Wuzhangyuan (Part 2)
The predecessor of the Tang cavalry was the Xiliang cavalry, one of the three major cavalry of the Han Dynasty.
The heyday of the Xiliang cavalry was when Dong Zhuo was in power. Two hundred thousand Xiliang cavalry were so powerful that even Ying Hao did not dare to provoke him easily, and even had to unite with the thirty-six princes to fight against Dong to protect himself.
After Dong Zhuo's death and downfall, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was also divided into two, and was completely divided by the current Sui and Tang Dynasties.
The Tang Army's cavalry, which was born out of the Xiliang cavalry, has quite good combat effectiveness. Maybe there is still some gap compared with the Qin cavalry, but it is still stronger than other princes.
With the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army's cavalry, even if they were no match for the Qin Army's cavalry, they would not be crushed in the first confrontation. It would still be possible to delay the arrival of reinforcements from the rear.
The reason why the Tang army was crushed was not only because the skill increase was less than that of the Qin army, but also because of the gap in tactics. The main reason was that Gongsun Xuanyuan's sharp knife was too much in the way.
Gongsun Xuanyuan's eight thousand cavalry penetrated directly into the heart of the Tang army, cutting off the connection between the front and rear armies, making it impossible for the front and rear to look at each other. They could only use half of their combat power to deal with the Qin army in front. It would be strange not to be crushed.
Therefore, the only way for Tang Jun to get out of the current predicament is to pull out Xuanyuan's sharp knife, otherwise it will only end in defeat.
A person's name, the shadow of a tree.
As Gongsun Xuanyuan is the number one general in Youzhou, Changsun Wuji has naturally heard of his name. Faced with this difficult opponent, he naturally did not dare to be careless and directly ordered Gao Siji, Gao Shunli, Gao Sixiang, Shi Jingtang and other generals to join forces to surround him. Kill Xuanyuan.
Gao Si succeeded his brothers Gao Sixiang in the front army, and his fathers Gao Shunli and Shi Jingtang were in the rear army.
As soon as the two generals of the former army left, Changsun Wuji felt the pressure doubled, but at this point he could only grit his teeth and hold on.
As long as Xuanyuan's troops can be defeated, the front army will be considered defeated, but at least the rear army can be saved.
"Generals Zhang Xiu and Gao Xingzhou will charge forward with me and we must hold on until reinforcements arrive." Changsun Wuji shouted.
"promise."
The three generals roared in unison. After all, even the main general was trying his best. As generals, how could they not try their best?
The martial arts in Kansai is prevalent, and as a member of the Kansai family, although Changsun Wuji is a civil servant, he has also been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his strength is no weaker than that of first-class generals.
With General Zhang Xiu on one side to protect him, Changsun Wuji was not much threatened. He killed six elite Qin cavalry one after another without even taking a breath, but soon Qin General Long Yang targeted them.
Long Qie's younger brother Long Yang, armed with a magic sword in his left hand and a divine sword in his right hand, rushed back and forth among the Tang army, killing dozens of people without encountering an opponent. After targeting Changsun Wuji, he encountered Zhang Xiu.
Before Long Yang could approach Changsun Wuji, he was stopped by Zhang Xiu, and the two started a fierce battle.
Zhang Xiu, one of the twenty-four generals of the Three Kingdoms, is the eldest disciple of Penglai Spear God Sanren Tong Yuan. He is the senior disciple of Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren. He holds the title of Spear King of the North. He has been active since the time of Dong Zhuo, which shows that his strength is naturally still Extremely strong.
[Ding dong, Zhang Xiu's skill 'Gun God' is activated, force +4, basic force 103 (+5), Tiger Head Golden Spear +1, Sa Lu +1, current force increased to 109; ]
Zhang Xiu is strong and Long Yang is not weak either.
Long Yang, who has a basic level of 101, can at least last for hundreds of rounds even against an opponent of 103, but this time he encountered his nemesis.
Long Yang's double swords are short weapons, and his opponent Zhang Xiu's long spear is inherently at a disadvantage. In addition, Zhang Xiu's Hundred Birds Chao Feng Spear is already a great weapon, which makes Long Yang restrained.
After only ten rounds of fighting, Long Yang was completely suppressed. If it weren't for the protection of the dragon scale armor, he would have been seriously injured, and nearly one-third of the dragon scale armor's scales were blown away.
Long Yang has lived from the Yellow Turban period to the present, and he is well versed in how to save his life on the battlefield. He will retreat decisively if he cannot be defeated, but Zhang Xiu saw through his intentions, and even trying to escape became a luxury.
The two fought fiercely for five more rounds. Just when Long Yang was about to lose his hold, Meng Yi arrived in time and saved Long Yang's life.
"Brother Meng, Long Yang is grateful for the life-saving grace."
Long Yang wiped his cold sweat and said, he was just a little bit away from dying at the hands of Zhang Xiu.
"It's just a piece of cake. Besides, we are both generals of the Qin army. This is what Meng Yi should do." Meng Yi said with a smile.
When Zhang Xiu saw Meng Yi and Long Yang, he couldn't say they looked exactly the same, he could only say they were exactly the same. He subconsciously thought they were twin brothers, but he didn't expect that one was named Long and the other was Meng. He couldn't help but make up the two in his head. All kinds of love and hatred among parents and elders.
"You two brothers are not afraid of me, Zhang Xiu, even if you come together. Today I will let you see how powerful I am, the Spear King of the North."
Zhang Xiu shouted coldly, then rode forward with his gun drawn, preparing to fight one against two.
Meng Yi and Long Yang looked embarrassed. This was not the first time that they were mistaken for twin brothers.
"Brother Long Yang, you are already injured. Let Meng Yi handle Zhang Xiu." Meng Yi said.
Long Yang nodded. He was indeed injured. If he participated in the battle, he might cause trouble to Meng Yi.
Long Yang withdrew, while Meng Yi stepped forward with his gun drawn, planning to challenge Zhang Xiu in a duel.
As a time traveler, Meng Yi naturally knows Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu today is obviously much stronger than what was described in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
"It is really a cruel era. If you don't work hard to become stronger, you will only die and be eliminated by the times." Meng Yi thought to himself, but he became even more excited.
Although Zhang Xiu is strong, Yi Xiaochuan is not weak either. Especially after killing Li Cunxu, he once again broke his own bottleneck and became stronger. Now Meng Yi is eager to fight against opponents of the same level.
Kill Li Cunxu, the founding emperor of the later Tang Dynasty, and get a permanent +1 reward in the five dimensions. Currently, Meng Yi (Yi Xiaochuan) has five dimensions: Commander 93, Force 103, Intelligence 81, Politics 59, Charisma 95;
"kill."
After two loud shouts, Meng Yi and Zhang Xiu launched their moves at the same time. The Meng Family's Eighteen-Style Wandering Dragon faced off against the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear. For a moment, the sky was filled with gun shadows, which was dizzying and dizzying.
This is a duel between dragon and phoenix.
Meng Yi and Zhang Xiu are both masters with spears. Meng Yi's Eighteen-Style Wandering Dragon is domineering and fierce, while Zhang Xiu's Hundred Birds Chao Phoenix Spear is swift and nimble.
Both of them had mastered their marksmanship, and their base martial arts were both 103. The difference in strength was not that big. It was difficult to tell the difference in a short period of time, but they were evenly matched.
On the other side, Huo Qubing saw Gao Xingzhou, a master with a spear, who had defeated three generals: Li Jin, Yue Xi, and Zhongli Mei. He was so happy to see Gao Xingzhou that he planned to take down Gao Xingzhou himself.
Huo Qubing and Gao Xingzhou both had 104 basic weapons, and both used guns. Neither could do anything about them in a short period of time.
At the same time, Gongsun Xuanyuan was under siege from four powerful generals: Gao Siji, Gao Sixiang, Gao Shunli, and Shi Jingtang.
