At the same time, facing the cavalry that was about to attack, Liu Zhang very calmly stretched out his right hand, and then waved it slightly towards the back.
"retreat."
Liu Zhang's voice was so soft that only Zhao Yun beside him could barely hear it.
But as soon as this word was blurted out, the entire Yizhou Army began to retreat quickly.
The Yizhou army retreated very quickly, but the entire army formation was very orderly and there was no panic at all.
"The enemy is trying to escape! Rush over and don't let them go!"
The scene of the Yizhou Army's retreat was clearly caught in Ma Chao's eyes, which further stimulated his bloody courage.
"Whoever captures Liu Zhang will be rewarded with 10,000 gold and promoted to five ranks!"
Ma Chao was overjoyed, what could Liu Zhang do? Facing the Tianke infantry, the Liangzhou Jingqi had no choice but to flee for their lives, right?
Even Ma Teng, who was at the back, began to feel optimistic.
Could it be that Ma Chao suddenly attacked and Liu Zhang was not fully prepared?
Thinking of this, Ma Teng regretted it even more!
If I had known this, I shouldn't have wasted words with Liu Zhang!
If the Yizhou Army had been attacked as early as possible, the Yizhou Army might have been defeated by now.
"Soldiers, the Yizhou army is scared, rush over and crush them!"
Stimulated by the dual blessings of Ma Chao and Ma Teng, Liangzhou Jing's knighthood greatly increased, and the charging speed accelerated again, and they were about to reach the Yizhou army.
At this moment, iron shields appeared one after another due to the retreat of Yizhou infantry.
The iron shields formed five shield arrays, protecting the Yizhou Army behind them like an iron wall.
Ma Chao was immediately shocked, and his dream of quickly tearing the Yizhou army apart was shattered.
With these iron shield walls, the cavalry could not face the Yizhou infantry. If you want to attack Liu Zhang in the rear, you can only choose to go around.
However, if this shield wall composed of thousands of people were bypassed, it would inevitably cause chaos in the Liangzhou Jingqi formation.
"Huh!"
The image of a Yizhou soldier walking through a shield formation made Ma Chao's eyes light up. It turned out that these shield formations were not lined up in a row, but there were gaps in the middle, which were filled by the shield formations at the rear.
From Ma Chao's perspective, these iron shields, three in front and two in back, are completely in a straight shape. In fact, the shield formation leaves gaps for soldiers to walk.
"Quick! Rush through these shield formations!"
Ma Chao immediately realized that these gaps must have been specially created for Liu Zhang to retreat. In other words, it will close soon.
If you can seize the opportunity and rush into the shield formation, these iron lumps will be smashed by the cavalry immediately.
"Soldiers, break away these iron shields!"
Traveling and impacting are undoubtedly the fastest ways to break through an iron shield.
Although hitting an iron shield with a flesh and blood body will cause a lot of casualties, in Ma Chao's view, as long as he can defeat Liu Zhang, no matter how many casualties he suffers, it will be worth it!
At the same time, Ma Chao had already taken the lead in breaking into the shield formation.
"this...!"
I thought that there were all soldiers behind these shields, but I didn't expect that all I saw were iron shields in my eyes!
Ma Chao was traveling extremely fast, and he passed through the iron shield in just a few breaths.
Seeing Liu Zhang in front of him, Ma Chao immediately stopped his horse and did not choose to attack Liu Zhang.
At this time, Liu Zhang was already protected by thousands of troops, and the Yizhou infantry formed a very powerful formation.
Even if Liangzhou Jingqi charged with all their strength, it would cost a lot to break the military formation. Ma Chao rushed over single-handedly, and would undoubtedly end up being killed.
After a while, Ma Chao's waiting Liangzhou Jingqi also rushed to the front of the iron shield formation.
About to face these iron shields, the cavalry showed no fear, and their eyes were full of fighting spirit.
"kill!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! . . .
When countless cavalrymen hit the shield array with their flesh and blood bodies, the powerful impact burst out into a dull enjoyment.
The collision of flesh and steel caused hot blood to spray onto the earth instantly!
Something unexpected happened to everyone. Faced with such a powerful impact, the shield formation was not broken and did not even move half a step!
The shields facing the impact of the cavalry only shook slightly for a while and immediately stabilized again.
At the same time, a terrible scene happened!
Countless spears shot out from the gaps in all the shields at the same time, and the entire iron shield formation instantly turned into iron hedgehogs!
Hundreds of cavalry who tried to pass through the shield formation were completely penetrated in an instant. Thousands of people entered the shield formation, but no one survived!
Bah! Bah! Bah! . . .
These spears that are constantly dripping blood have not ended their mission and are still piercing the air!
Not only were the entire Liangzhou cavalry stopped in their tracks by fright, but even Ma Chao, who had rushed through the shield formation, was panicked.
If these spears suddenly appeared when I rushed into the battle, I'm afraid now. . .
Ma Chao kept swallowing, this was undoubtedly a brush with death!
The 30,000 Liangzhou Jingqi attacked the Iron Shield Formation with determination to win, but in the end, the attack ended completely at the cost of thousands of tragic deaths!
Fortunately, there were still a small number of cavalry who passed through both sides of the shield formation and survived, so that the entire front army was not wiped out!
The sudden change caught everyone off guard. The cavalry in front were afraid of the powerful destructive power of the shield formation and stopped moving forward. However, the Liangzhou Jingqi in the rear were still screaming forward because they did not know the situation they were facing in front!
Collisions, crowding, and trampling immediately occurred throughout the cavalry formation.
The sudden stop of the advance caused chaos in the entire camp!
The most unlucky ones were the cavalry at the front. They were crowded by their companions at the rear, and their horses were frightened and rushed directly towards the shield formation.
The result is obvious, many soldiers were pierced by spears!
"Calm down! Stop moving forward!"
Ma Teng finally noticed something strange and quickly rushed to the front from the side.
"Ah...this!"
Looking at the miserable corpses under the iron shield formation, Ma Teng couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"General Liang!"
It turned out that Ma Teng's general Liang Fan was already lying under the shield formation.
There are at least a dozen holes in Liang Fan's body, and blood is still pouring out at this moment!
Even if the miracle doctor comes in person, there will definitely be nothing he can do.
Ma Teng's exclamation once again intensified the fear in Liangzhou Jingqi's heart.
Even the front row of cavalry kept retreating back, fearing that there would be another crowding and they would crash into the life-threatening iron shield!
Is this what Liu Zhang relies on to have no fear of cavalry?
Ma Teng's fear of Liu Zhang resurfaced in his heart. Thousands of cold iron shields alone were enough to withstand the impact of 30,000 cavalry. How could such a powerful enemy be defeated?
"Lord, these iron shields seem to be invulnerable in terms of offense and defense, but they actually have a fatal flaw!"
Pang De didn't know when he appeared next to Ma Teng.
"What shortcomings?"
Pang De's words seemed to make Ma Teng grasp at a life-saving straw.
"Can't move!"
"These iron shields are dead. If they move, the formation will immediately be in chaos!"
