Guo Xin did not dare to be careless. The first priority in the battle formation was to save his life, and the second was to win the battle. Regardless of whether the Shehu Army could withstand it at the moment, he immediately ordered his own soldiers to go to the south to ask for help from Zhao Hui.
After a while, Qi Tingxun rode up on his horse with a bloody face: "I haven't had such fun killing for a long time. It seems that an arrow suddenly appeared and helped me kill a thief. Was that arrow shot by Commander Guo?"
Guo Xin was noncommittal, but pointed at the enemy cavalry with two arrows left. The horse army of five to six hundred people was galloping with great momentum, and even the earth was shaking slightly at such a close distance.
Qi Tingxun took a look, spit out a mouthful of blood, and cursed: "When did we fall in love with Wang Jingchong's wife? Why are so many soldiers and horses rushing towards us?"
Guo Xin rode forward on horseback. There were about twenty soldiers behind him, but it was useless to rush in. Wang Huan's horse army was hanging far north for some reason.
"Commander Qi, order your archers to stay back and pay attention to the position of the enemy's cavalry. I'll think of a solution."
He also asked his soldiers to give Zhang Chenghua an order: "Tell Vice General Zhang to hold on to the formation and wait for reinforcements from the Chinese army."
After Qi Tingxun accepted the order and went down, Guo Xin also called his own cavalry to ride with him to the front of the battle. The two armies were fighting head-on, and the battle line was constantly in turmoil. The enemy cavalry was getting closer and closer. The enemy infantry who were originally confronting the Shehu Army ran to both sides, but the Shehu Army was unable to take the opportunity to catch up. Zhang Chenghua and Wang Yuanmao could be heard shouting loudly among the roaring army. The sound of soldiers forming formations.
Guo Xin saw that the enemy's cavalry was going to directly overwhelm his own army, so he immediately rode his horse and headed north, preparing to hang on the side of the enemy's cavalry and shoot arrows to harass them, or depending on the situation, he could fight with Wang Huan's cavalry.
Qi Tingxun's archers fired a volley, but before they had time to shoot the second arrow, Fengxiang's horse army arrived in an instant. The two infantry and cavalry formations collided fiercely. For a moment, the horses galloped and the sound of killing was loud.
Guo Xin led his own troops to approach the enemy from the side. Fengxiang's cavalry army all had lances and spears, but no bows and arrows. Guo Xin confidently hung on the enemy's side, raised his bow and fired after he entered the shooting range. At such a close distance, Fengxiang's horse army was gathered together, and no matter how bad his shooting skills were, he could do it. However, Guo Xin still controlled his aim, not shooting the armored knights, but focusing on the enemy's horses rushing in front. The leading horsemen stumbled, and the horsemen behind them were unable to avoid the situation. They collided with the fallen men and horses, causing them to flip over.
Although Guo Xin harassed him, there were still too many Fengxiang cavalry troops, and more cavalry troops smoothly rushed straight into the Shehu Army's infantry formation. The infantry of the Shehu Army were scattered in the front by Fengxiang's cavalry in a blink of an eye. Fortunately, they still maintained a whole body and the military formation was not completely separated by Fengxiang's cavalry.
Seeing that the Shehu Army's formation was not broken with one blow, the enemy's cavalry troops ran back in large numbers, presumably to prepare for a second attack. Guo Xin glanced at his own military formation out of the corner of his eye. The place where he was was already in chaos. It was obvious that he couldn't resist again, and the large area of infantry behind the enemy army was about to turn around and fight.
While he was thinking, the enemy noticed the existence of his small cavalry. A general in red robes and a cavalry of more than a hundred people broke away from the enemy's main team and rode towards him.
"Let's go!" Guo Xin shouted, kicking his horse and running away with his soldiers.
After the red-robed general followed closely for dozens of steps, Guo Xin turned around and could even see the general's wide eyes.
Seeing that he couldn't get rid of him, Guo Xin ordered Guo Pu beside him: "Let's divide into two groups, one on the left and one on the right. Come and join us when you see me waving the flag."
Guo Pu nodded to express his understanding, and immediately ran to the left with half of his own horse. Guo Xin then pulled the reins and turned the horse's head to the right.
As expected, the chasing enemy troops were divided into two groups, chasing after Guo Xin and Guo Pu respectively. Guo Xin chose the right side just so that he could turn around and shoot arrows. Seeing that there were only forty or fifty cavalry left behind him led by the enemy general in red robes, he forced himself to calm down, drew his bow and shot back.
It was difficult for the horses to shoot at high speeds, but Guo Xin's group shot down several of his pursuers. The red-robed enemy general became very angry and shouted: "Young man, you can only shoot arrows, why don't you die quickly!"
Guo Xin responded with a loud laugh on his horse: "How dare you, the rebellious ministers and traitors, bark in front of our army!"
Further forward was the stone beach on the river bank. After Guo Xin said this, he ordered the flag bearer to wave the flag and waved his hand to signal his horseman to slow down and prepare to turn around. At the same time, he turned back and shot two arrows at the enemy general. The enemy general seemed to know that he was arrowing. The method was so powerful that he was guarded by soldiers and shot several arrows in succession.
With no way to go ahead, Guo Xin and his relatives turned their horses in front of the stone beach, kicked their horses and rushed towards the red-robed enemy general. They raised their bright horizontal swords high towards the opposite side and said, "Kill!"
The knights put down their bows and arrows, raised their spears and sabers, and shouted together: "Kill!"
Horse hooves flew, dust flew, and the enemy army on the opposite side did not slow down. The red-robed enemy general was leading the way at this moment, with a smile on his face, and seemed to have a sure victory.
Guo Xin looked at that smiling face, and felt a burst of extreme disgust and anger in his heart. This feeling made all the muscles in his body tense instantly, and a stream of blood surged from his feet straight to his Tianling Cap, making him feel that he was going to die in the next moment. Die with a split head! But in the blink of an eye, he only had one thought left in his body: no one wants to kill him!
When there were still twenty steps between the two sides, Guo Xin suddenly tightened the reins, clamped the horse's belly, and pulled out an armor-piercing long arrow from the quiver with his right hand at an extremely fast speed. He raised the bow with his left hand without stopping, and drew the bow. He completed his aim in an instant, and when he let go of the string, he saw an extremely panicked face.
"Ah!" With a very sad and painful cry, the red-robed enemy general fell from his horse and lost sight of anyone in the dust.
The intense pleasure and satisfaction made Guo Xin unable to bear it any longer, and he shouted with all his strength: "Kill the thief!"
The general fell from his horse, and the pursuers were already in disarray. Some quickly dismounted to grab people, some returned to run, and some continued to rush forward. Guo Xin did not give them a chance to think too much. In a blink of an eye, he led his own cavalry to the front. He passed by the panicked pursuers and then raised his sword and killed several people in a row.
The soldiers behind him also fought bravely to take the lead. The momentum of the twenty-odd cavalrymen far surpassed the hundreds of cavalrymen who were pursuing them. Guo Xin and others rushed straight into the chasing cavalry. The enemy troops could not resist and immediately dispersed in a panic. Even the enemy general who fell from his horse had no one to save him.
At this time, another cavalry team rushed from the front, and it was Guo Pu who attracted another group of pursuers.
Guo Pu's men turned left and passed by Guo Xin. The pursuers did not know whether to continue chasing Guo Pu or to engage Guo Xin. The tight formation was a little confused for a while.
Guo Xin did not stop, and took advantage of the situation to continue charging forward. Taking this opportunity, he raised his bow with his own cavalry and shot down the leading enemy cavalry. The enemy cavalry became even more chaotic.
"Kill thieves and make meritorious deeds today!" Guo Xin shouted on his horse, while the soldiers around him crossed over to protect him and gallop forward to protect him. Guo Pu also turned his horse's head behind him, and after the two groups merged, they rushed straight towards the enemy like a cluster of arrows.
Seeing this scene, the enemy's cavalry troops turned around and left without fighting.
Guo Pu gasped on the horse: "Brother Yi, are you still chasing me?"
Guo Xin raised his hand to signal everyone to stop and rest. When he came back to his senses, he realized that he was already quite far away from the Shehu Army Formation. The people and horses in the distance were in chaos, and the two armies were entangled. Only the flags and cavalry could be seen rushing back and forth among the chaotic troops, and nothing else could be seen clearly.
Guo Xin came back to his senses and was worried: After wasting all this time, Qi Tingxun Zhang Chenghua and the others may have been defeated?
The Shehu Army's chances of winning were obviously not great, but he couldn't help but think better about the overall situation: Since his Shehu Army had been delayed for nearly an hour, perhaps Zhao Yanjin and the others on the right wing of the Fengxiang Army had won more for the Han Army. With the advantage, he will be able to kill here soon.
He continued to ride his horse to look at the situation. At this time, Guo Pu suddenly pointed to a place in the north where the cavalry troops were charging in the rebel army and said: "Brother Yi, look quickly, isn't that Wang Huan's flag?"
Guo Xin looked over there and saw that it was indeed Wang Huan's cavalry army, but that cavalry army actually ran rampant among the enemy's large infantry army, and its speed was extremely fast. It was invincible and irresistible!
As he got closer, he was even more surprised to find that his Shehu Army formation was still arrayed on the rocky beach to stalemate with the enemy's infantry!
At this moment, a crisp sound of ringing gold suddenly came from farther to the west.
