The pursuit lasted for half an hour, and due to the horses on both sides, the distance finally closed to a few dozen steps.
At this time, Fazheng finally caught up with Han Sui and shouted to Han Sui.
"Lord Governor, Ma Teng will not break through Ji County so soon. Liu Zhang will definitely flee directly to Hanzhong. We must pursue him to the end!"
"Don't worry, Xiaozhi! Even if he is chased to Hanzhong, Liu Zhang will never escape with his life!"
Han Sui kept beating the horse's belly, expressing his determination with his actual actions.
"Soldiers! Charge! The Yizhou Army will be gone soon!"
The bravery and proficiency of Liangzhou soldiers in battle and their proficiency in riding skills were fully reflected at this time.
In a long pursuit, both manpower and horsepower will decrease.
But the Liangzhou cavalry speeded up again at this time!
Eighty steps, seventy steps, sixty steps. . .
The distance between the two sides is getting closer. If there is no accident, the Liangzhou Army's sword will definitely be able to cut down on the Yizhou Army within a quarter of an hour!
"Quick! Speed up!"
Han Sui shouted loudly again, he already felt in his heart that this was the moment closest to realizing the hegemony in his heart!
Time has come to the end of Yinshi, the brightness in the sky has gradually replaced the darkness, and the field of vision has become wider.
At this moment, the Yizhou Army suddenly changed direction and the entire army circled to the side of the dense forest.
"Hmph! Struggle to the death!"
Han Sui was not anxious. This dense forest was not large, but the trees were so dense that the cavalry could not hide in the forest.
Moreover, Han Sui saw very clearly that the Yizhou Army did not enter the dense forest, but chose to turn their horses' heads in an attempt to temporarily disappear from the sight of the Liangzhou Cavalry.
Everything was as Han Sui expected. When the Liangzhou army also turned around the dense forest, the fleeing figure of the Yizhou army appeared again.
"Hiss...what is that!"
It is true that the Yizhou Army is in the front, but there are actually five phalanxes blocking the Yizhou Army!
The entire phalanx was covered by shields, and the situation inside could not be seen at all. But one thing is certain, there must be a lot of soldiers inside!
"Is it possible that Liu Zhang left these soldiers to die in order to escape?"
Han Sui muttered to himself and looked at the five huge shield arrays again.
Five square formations composed of soldiers holding shields, three in front and two in back, stood directly in front of the Liangzhou Army.
There is a large gap between the square formations, but it just blocks the path of pursuit!
Similarly, the road in front of him was very wide, so Han Sui could choose to take a detour to the right and completely ignore these shield formations.
But in this case, a lot of time will be wasted, and the advantage of the previous pursuit will be lost immediately!
"Lord Governor, look at the scale, there are about a thousand people in each shield formation. Liu Zhang is trying to survive with a broken arm. The lives of these people are used to buy him time to escape!"
Fazheng hurriedly shouted to Han Sui. He did not say clearly what to do, but Fazheng believed that Han Sui must have understood what he meant.
"Charge over! Crush them!"
Sure enough, Han Sui made a decisive decision and immediately ordered his soldiers to go forward, hoping to rely on his numerical advantage to smash these shield formations directly!
"Kill! Crush them!"
The Liangzhou Iron Cavalry and these cold iron shields were getting closer, and neither side flinched at all, especially the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry, whose eyes were full of anger.
These iron shields are a complete insult to their title of Iron Cavalry!
From ancient times to the present, why has the infantry dared to stand still and challenge the cavalry?
Today, tens of thousands of Liangzhou knights will use the shattering of these iron shields to prove their title to the world!
"kill!"
The shouts of killing like dragons and tigers roared through the sky, and then the Liangzhou cavalry directly hit the shield blocking them.
Boom boom boom. . .
Puff puff. . .
The scene was extremely brutal, but the result was completely beyond Han Sui's expectations!
The Yizhou army shield was destroyed and no one was killed. Instead, the Liangzhou cavalry were left with flesh and blood flying everywhere!
When the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry was about to approach the shield formation, countless sharp spears suddenly poured out from the gaps in the shield.
The knights were caught off guard and had no time to react. They were pierced by the spear in the blink of an eye and were killed by the spear.
The sudden appearance of the spears was extremely strange, with each spear sticking out nine feet away.
The Liangzhou cavalry's most proud speed has become the biggest crisis. There are more than one person hanging on each spear!
On the other hand, the shield formations that were collided by the cavalry did not break into pieces as the Liangzhou cavalry imagined. The shields were destroyed and people died. Although the shield was shaken by the impact, it would return to its position in an instant!
Seeing this situation, the Liangzhou cavalry charged into the gaps in the shield array in an attempt to bypass these shield arrays.
Unfortunately, the three and two shield arrays complement each other perfectly. Unless the horse's head is turned quickly, it will definitely hit the shield array behind.
The front cavalry of the Liangzhou Army suddenly fell into chaos. All the soldiers crowded to both sides, no one wanted to be pierced by the spears in the shield array.
It's a pity that the Liangzhou Cavalry thought too well. They thought that there would be no danger if they bypassed the shield formation!
When they chose to walk through the shield formation, spears suddenly began to stab out from both sides of the shield formation. These spears were immediately retracted every time they stabbed, which further aggravated the cavalry's fear of these shields.
The progress of the Liangzhou cavalry stopped in front of the shield formation. Due to the sudden stop of the pursuit, the formation of the army in the middle and rear was in chaos, and even trampled on each other!
The shield formation still stood in place, but hundreds of bodies were left with holes pierced around it!
Han Sui stared blankly at the shield formation and did not order another charge.
The enemy formation in front of him was so terrifying that even the well-informed Han Sui couldn't help but feel frightened, let alone these soldiers.
And after such a delay, it would be too difficult to catch up with Liu Zhang.
"Xiao... Xiaozhi, do you... have you ever recognized this formation?"
Fazheng did not answer Han Sui's question, and his face became extremely gloomy!
Is it possible that months of hard work will eventually be destroyed in the hands of these bastards?
From the beginning to the end, Fazheng was observing the operation of these shield formations. When they stabbed their spears from the side, Fazheng thought that defeat was about to turn into victory.
If spears were also protruding from both sides like the front, then the huge inertia of the cavalry collision would most likely bring out the soldiers inside, and the entire shield array would collapse without any attack.
But I never expected that these spears were thrust out in a series, not blocking at all!
Even if some unlucky spears are hit by cavalry, the soldiers in the shield will throw away the spears without hesitation in order to maintain the shield formation.
"Lord Governor, these are definitely the most elite soldiers under Liu Zhang's command! Whether it is equipment, coordination, or formations, they are all top-notch in the world!"
A look of confusion flashed across Fazheng's face. How could Liu Zhang really be willing to throw away such elite troops?
Can such a powerful formation really be formed in the blink of an eye?
Or. . . ?
