Wuji County battlefield.
Following Zhu Di's order, the Yan army immediately launched a fierce attack.
Zhu Gaoxu held a spear in his hand, looked at Li Jian's military formation and sneered.
"Come into battle with me!"
Following Zhu Gaoxu's order, a thousand-man cavalry began to line up, each rider holding a horse sculpture in his hand.
Weapons like horse sculptures look very similar to spears and lances that Western knights like to use.
But in fact, horses are more complicated and more expensive.
In ancient times, horseshoes could be passed down as family heirlooms, but ordinary people couldn't afford them or equip them.
Because it takes several years to make a qualified horse shaft.
Since the former Song Dynasty, all the war horse production areas in the northwest and Youyan have been lost. The Central Plains dynasty lacked strong cavalry troops. Therefore, expensive cavalry weapons such as horseshoes naturally declined.
Coupled with the powerful development of imperial weapons and infantry, since the former Song Dynasty, the way to deal with powerful cavalry legions was no longer a cavalry showdown, but "conquering cavalry with foot."
But the officers and soldiers of the Yan army were different. They had to go out to fight against the Mongolian cavalry all year round, so in the end King Zhu Di of Yan made the decision to re-create the horse horse and pick up this battlefield weapon for restraining the cavalry.
Because the Ma's sword has obvious armor-piercing edges, a good sword will have eight sides like a sword. Ordinary fish scale chain mail, iron circle armor, and bright light armor can be broken by the armor-piercing edge with one blow.
What's more, the armor coverage rate of Mongolian cavalry is low. Only noble chiefs are qualified to wear armor, and most of these armors are weak and cannot stop the armor-piercing edge of the horse.
You must know that the knight holds the horse and charges the horse, which is equivalent to bringing extremely terrifying potential energy to the horse. With this strong inertia, coupled with the cavalry's skillful horsemanship and use skills, it is enough to turn into the most powerful "blade" ", cut through all obstacles in front of you.
Not to mention the simple armor of the Mongolian cavalry, even the chainmail armor worn by the Ming army generals could not stop this fatal blow!
Because of this, the Ma Cha heavy cavalry has become a unique branch of the Yan army's cavalry.
But it is a pity that King Zhu Di of Yan worked hard for so many years, but he only managed to form a 3,000-horse heavy cavalry that was brave and good at fighting.
After all, Zhu Gaoxu was the biological son of King Yan Zhu Di. In addition, he bravely won the three armies, so he became the commander of these three thousand heavy cavalry.
Now, it’s time to test Ma Cha’s power!
When charging the infantry, Ma Shan was still terrifying.
Just like the bed crossbow arrows fired, once the thousand riders started to charge, a thousand sharp blades that were more terrifying than the bed crossbows were fired at them. One of them was enough to hang several human candied haws.
Of course, after such a charge, the horseman had to give up temporarily, and the knight had to draw his close saber and continue fighting.
But a manly man just enjoys the blood and pleasure of fighting on the battlefield!
"Ma Shanjun!"
Zhu Gaoxu shouted angrily.
"kill!"
The next moment, three thousand heavy cavalry galloped out and dug into Li Jian's formation.
Zhu Di was always observing the battlefield situation. Seeing this situation, he immediately issued military orders and the three armies launched a general attack.
For a moment, outside Li Jian's army formation, dust was flying and horses' hooves were pounding. There was really a majestic momentum as if a mountain rain was about to come!
Li Jian naturally noticed this surprising change and immediately shouted angrily, trying to block the Yan army's attack.
After all, if the Yan army launches an attack at this moment, it proves that the right-wing army is not far from here!
As long as they can persist and wait until the right-wing army arrives, it will be the end of the Yan army!
"Reinforcements have arrived!"
"My sons, please follow me to destroy the thief!"
Li Jian raised his arms and shouted, raised his knife and took the lead in charging.
Zhu Gaoxu personally led a thousand horses and heavy cavalry, and drove into the military formation.
No one can touch it wherever it passes, leaving only broken limbs and broken arms all over the place!
"Pikemen!"
Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu had broken through the outer military formation and headed straight for the central main army.
Li Jian immediately shouted angrily, and the spearmen in the front row of the central military formation immediately squatted down, raised the spears in their hands diagonally upwards, and touched the back end to the ground!
The mission of the pikemen is to build a thorn fortress with their flesh and blood to block the enemy's cavalry charge.
The spearman in the back row holds the spear in his right arm, and his left hand is responsible for fixing and adjusting the direction, with the tip of the spear facing forward.
The densely packed spear points are the shell of the central military formation, a shell covered with spikes.
As long as the enemy cavalry dares to charge over, they will definitely suffer heavy losses!
However, many of these spearmen were already trembling in their hands and feet.
Who can be unafraid in the face of the cavalry's charge and oppression?
They are all people of flesh and blood. Who would not be afraid of using flesh and blood to build a defense line?
Especially the spearmen in the front row, even if their spears can pierce the opponent's horses, even if their spears can knock off the opponent's cavalry, they will not survive!
Because of the terrifying inertia carried by enemy war horses, they can also be knocked away!
Under such a violent impact, it is a kind of luck to die directly on the spot!
The most fearful thing is that those who have countless broken bones but have not yet died will only be trampled to death by the rebel army!
In that state, every extra moment of survival means one more moment of torture, and the state of death is also extremely miserable!
Zhu Gaoxu also noticed the densely packed sharp spears in front of him, but instead of feeling scared, he showed a ferocious smile.
Ma Shan is not the only heavy cavalry. The armor they wear is also the best and strongest fish scale chain mail in the Yan army, which is enough to withstand some fatal injuries!
Even if I have to trade my life for my life, I will tear apart your Central Military Formation today!
"I am invincible!"
"The Yan army is victorious!"
Zhu Gaoxu roared angrily, drew his gun and went in. His horse leaped over the dense mass of spears, and then began a frantic killing spree.
Since the general was so brave, Ma Sheng's heavy cavalry was naturally unwilling to lag behind, and hit the fierce spear hard.
In an instant, there was a loud noise, as if the earth was shattering!
With just this collision, the front row of spearmen was violently knocked out of formation.
Before they could regroup, a rain of arrows as dense as locusts came, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the soldiers.
But Zhu Gaoxu still did not stop charging, and kept sweeping the spear in his hand, heading straight for Li Jian in the center.
His bravery and skill in fighting are simply astonishing.
Li Jian also noticed Zhu Gaoxu and was so frightened that his calves almost went weak.
However, he had no chance to escape at all, because the Yan army from behind also launched an attack.
A hole was torn open in the military formation, and naturally the formation could not be formed.
What's more, under the Yan Army's front and rear attacks, Li Jian's army formation was quickly defeated. The soldiers of the Southern Army fought on their own, facing the slaughter of the Yan Army's cavalry!
The remaining soldiers of the Southern Army could only be slaughtered by the Yan Army's cavalry.
Zhu Gaoxu took the lead and rushed to the front, preparing to kill the enemy general with a shot.
Unexpectedly, Li Jian threw away his sword and shouted: "Don't kill me, I am the consort Li Jian, and I am a relative of the emperor!"
Prince Consort Li Jian?
Is this Nima still a relative?
Zhu Gaoxu felt helpless and picked up Li Jian casually.
"The Lord has descended!"
"Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
With Li Jian's life-saving surrender, the war soon ended.
After all, the generals have surrendered, and they still have to give them a hammer!
Zhu Di looked at the disgraced seventh brother-in-law, and his expression became strange.
"Ahem, I said seventh brother-in-law, you can't do this either!"
"Can't you just be a good wife and raise your children at home? Do you have to come to this battlefield to endure hardships?"
Li Jian: "???"
What?
A wife and a child?
Let me go to your uncle’s house!
