258 Breakthrough 4
Fu Ning, who rushed at the front, became the target of the enemy's fire. Arrows came like a rain, and he was hit by arrows one after another. Fortunately, he was wearing double armor. In addition to the leather armor commonly equipped by Hu Qi, there was also an additional armor inside.
A half-body chainmail armor. This chainmail armor was introduced from the Western Regions. It is made of small iron rings riveted together. The rings have fine holes and are invulnerable to weapons and arrows. It is a powerful weapon. This chainmail armor is
Saved his life. Although he was hit by more than twenty arrows in the chest and abdomen, and the leather armor had been shot like a sieve, none of the arrows could penetrate the chain armor. This guy was shot like a hedgehog.
It can be said that he is fierce, constantly drawing his bow and setting arrows, shooting sharp arrows at Jiehu. Almost every arrow shot, a Jiehu cavalryman was hit in the face or throat by an arrow, fell down from the horse, and was hoofed by the horse in the blink of an eye.
Trampled into a pulp.
His private soldiers were equally brave. They charged up against the rain of arrows. Their horse bows were drawn as fast as the full moon. Sharp arrows flew through the space. Jiehu cavalrymen were constantly hit by arrows and fell off their horses. Of course, they also kept having people hit by arrows and fell off their horses. This kind of
In a battlefield where arrows are flying, no one can escape unscathed. It is more practical to think about how to get a good armor to make yourself more resistant to beatings.
The armor of the Jin army is undoubtedly much better than that of the Hu people, so the casualties they suffered in the confrontation were smaller than that of the Jiehu cavalry. Seeing that they could not take advantage of the confrontation, the Jiehu cavalry put down their bows and arrows and raised their long swords.
The spears hit him head-on. The Hu cavalry also put down their bows and arrows, drew out their long knives or swords, and rushed towards them. When they were about to engage in hand-to-hand combat, they also sent the Jie and Hu cavalry throwing spears. Throwing steel-throwing spears at close range was extremely powerful.
The Hu Cavalry's leather armor looked like paper. It was pierced through without mercy, and both men and horses rolled into a ball. Seeing this, the Jie Hu Cavalry couldn't help but feel a little frightened, and evaded without thinking...
This dodge was bad, and the sword stabbed him in the chest.
As the Forbidden Army, Hu Qi's weapons and equipment cannot be vague. The length of the long swords they are equipped with is generally more than 110 centimeters, and the long swords are even more exaggerated, like the one used by Fu Ning, with a total length of 145 centimeters. This kind of long sword
It has eight sides, and the blade is narrow and long, a bit like today's Italian rapier. However, the spine of the sword is much thicker than the rapier. It is bladed on both sides. The tip of the sword is in the shape of a bullet. With the speed of a galloping horse, it can easily penetrate two or three layers of skin.
Armor, but it is not easily damaged because it is too sharp. Not only can this sword stab, but it is also very powerful in chopping. Even if it is swung with one hand, it can easily break through the leather armor and remove an arm. Equipped with this kind of super long
He is not the only one who uses cavalry swords. Most of his three hundred private soldiers are equipped with such swords. Now these three hundred private soldiers are all armed with cavalry swords, and they collided with both men and horses...
If Li Rui had been present, his eyes would have shone brightly and he would have called himself an expert: Isn't this the fighting method that he tried so hard to teach his tiger cavalry? Although the formation of these 300 people was a bit loose, there was no dense formation.
The cavalry wall is facing the enemy, but it is the right way to thrust forward with your sword and seize the lead. These people are all talented!
At least it's much better than that idiot No. 600 under his command!
Facts have proved that this kind of tactics of charging straight at you with a long sword pointed at you regardless of what is happening is indeed very powerful. The Jiehu cavalry saw the densely packed cavalry charging towards you with exaggeratedly long swords.
, my scalp immediately went numb, and the timid ones immediately wanted to turn their horses to avoid these madmen, while the more courageous ones swung their swords to fight with these sword-wielding cavalry!
Soldiers were fighting hand to hand, and the terrifying muffled sound of sharp blades piercing flesh was endless. In just one encounter, hundreds of Jiehu cavalry were stabbed through by long swords, and they were already dead before they fell off their horses. Of course, there are also particularly fierce guys, who are here.
After being pierced by a sword in the chest, he still managed to swing his long sword and slashed at the head of the Jin army. The two fell off their horses and died together.
The three hundred private soldiers led by Fu Ning were like extremely sharp arrows, carrying huge kinetic energy and penetrating through the rows of Jiehu cavalry. Wherever they went, the Jiehu cavalry were either pierced through the chest or killed with a sword.
The Jiehu cavalrymen were a little frightened after having their arms broken off and even their heads split off. Seeing how brave their commander was, Hu Qiu's morale doubled. He crossed his sword and leaped on his horse, charging into the air with the Jiehu cavalrymen. It was clear that their strength was only one-third of the Jiehu cavalrymen's strength.
One, but he withstood the fierce attack of the Jiehu cavalry.
The various departments of the Forbidden Army took this opportunity to gather their troops and form a shield wall with large shields. The archers and crossbowmen hid behind the shield wall, thus protecting Sima Yue and other senior officials as they retreated towards Iron Gate Pass. Jiehu General Kong Chang and
Kui'an each led a thousand cavalry to bypass the Hu cavalry who were desperately resisting, and rushed towards the two wings of the Jin army. Their impact was undoubtedly very fierce, like thunder and lightning, and they rushed to the Jin army in almost the blink of an eye.
In front of them. If they had been a few minutes earlier, they would have definitely achieved brilliant results. Unfortunately, under Hu Qi's desperate blockade, they were half a beat too late. By the time they arrived, the Jin army had already formed a formation.
. Although the military formation was arranged in a hurry and looked quite messy, and the sergeants were also frightened, no matter what, it was finally formed. When Kui'an and Kong Chang arrived, they blocked
In front of them was a tight shield wall, spears as dense as reeds, and a rain of arrows from the Jin army's crossbowmen. Although Kong Chang and Kui'an were brave, they had too few troops under their command. In addition, at this time
The Jiehu cavalry are mainly engaged in riding and shooting, and rarely directly attack the enemy's formation. Facing the Jin army that has already formed a formation, these two generals are also as depressed as a dog biting a hedgehog with nowhere to bite. They come and go around the Jin army.
The army formations were galloping back and forth, constantly firing bows and arrows, shooting left to right, right to left. The dense rain of arrows caused a lot of casualties to the Jin army, but the rain of arrows poured over by the Jin army also caused heavy casualties to them.
.
After fighting like this all the way, Kui'an and Kong Chang were still unable to break through the Jin army's formation. They could only watch the other side retreat slowly under the rain of arrows, retreating all the way into the Iron Gate Pass. Seeing that the cooked duck was about to
When he was about to fly away, Shi Le became furious and said to Wang Yang: "Take your troops and follow me to rush down and take the life of the old thief Sima!"
Wang Yang suffered more than ten wounds in the two battles of Xincheng and Piaoliu, but after this period of rest and treatment, he has generally recovered. After hearing this, he immediately ordered the last thousand cavalry who were following Shi Le to charge with him.
Go down. Zhang Bin dissuaded him in time and said to Shi Le: "No! Now that the Jin army has formed an array, our army is very small. It is not easy to defeat tens of thousands of elite forbidden troops in one fell swoop! The general must not take risks!"
Shi Le pointed angrily at the gorgeous convoy that was retreating into the iron gate, and said: "Then we will just watch the old thief escape from under our noses!?"
Zhang Bin squinted his eyes and said: "He can't escape! Tiemen Pass has been in ruins after the war, and there is no food and grass in the pass, so it is difficult to hold on. This is a desperate military situation! The general should use three thousand troops to cut off Tiemen Pass and
In the connection between Xin'an and Xin'an, 3,000 men and horses besieged Tiemen Pass, and then two iron cavalry ambushed along the official road, driving the Jin army behind them into Tiemen Pass. When Tiemen Pass was overcrowded, the water source was cut off, and no one could get out.
In a few days, the Jin army will collapse!"
Shi Le felt that this plan was feasible, so he immediately ordered Kong Chang and Kui'an to continue driving the Jin army into the Iron Gate Pass, and then blocked them to prevent them from coming out. Guo Ao, Tao Bao and others stepped up their efforts to strangle the troops led by Fu Ning.
Three thousand barbarians.
At this time, Fu Ning had led Hu Qi and charged back and forth among the Jie and Hu cavalry for several rounds, killing all the people with blood and the horses with blood. Hu Qi suffered heavy casualties, and nearly half of his three hundred private soldiers were killed or injured.
. Seeing that the main force had retreated into Tiemen Pass, and the Jiehu cavalry was surrounding them from all sides, attacking more and more, Fu Ning knew that it was no longer necessary to continue fighting, so he immediately commanded his troops to retreat to Tiemen Pass, and he personally led his private troops to break up the troops.
The Jiehu cavalrymen were not willing to let him go. They clung to him and fired sharp arrows at random. Some of the Hu cavalrymen were hit by arrows and fell down. Fu Ning and his private soldiers galloped and fired, and he himself opened his bow from left to right, firing continuously.
After dozens of arrows, the Jiehu cavalrymen fell down without hesitation. After witnessing his ability to shoot arrows from left and right, the Jiehu cavalrymen became a little timid and did not dare to push too hard any more.
Kui'an was furious when he saw this. Taking advantage of Fu Ning's exhaustion after shooting dozens of arrows, he rushed over on horseback. He drew the horn bow in his hand into a full moon shape and shot out an arrow. Fu Ning couldn't avoid it and was shot in the neck.
, his body shook a few times, and he fell off the horse. His private soldiers were all frightened, and rushed forward desperately to fight fiercely with the Jiehu cavalry who rushed to cut off their heads.
They also turned their horses and rushed forward with red eyes. The two sides started an unprecedented brutal fight around the corpse. Not long after, each of them dropped two to three hundred corpses, but in the end the Jin army succeeded in removing Fu Ning's corpse.
He snatched it back and retreated into the iron gate.
Fu Ning was a well-known general in the Forbidden Army. He was versatile in both civil and military affairs and loved to nurse his soldiers. He was very popular with the army. Seeing him die in battle, all the surviving soldiers of Hu Qi burst into tears. Together with them, the Jin army who retreated into the Iron Gate Pass also followed.
Crying loudly, the difference is that Hu Qi was crying because their general died in battle, while the Jin army was crying because they were in a desperate situation and didn't know if they would be able to see the sun tomorrow!
However, this was only the beginning of the disaster. According to Zhang Bin's words, the Jiehu army used 3,000 troops to cut off the connection between Xin'an and Tiemenguan, 3,000 troops to surround Tiemenguan, and another 2,000 troops to attack Zheng Hengwen along the way.
A war broke out in this direction, and the Jin army rushed here anxiously. In the darkness, the Jin army felt that there were enemy troops everywhere. They were completely confused in panic. They only knew how to flee towards Tiemenguan, tens of thousands of them.
Crowds of people rushed towards the iron gate, and soon the small iron gate was blocked. I don't know how many Jiehuxiu fished in troubled waters and got in in the chaos; how many soldiers could not find the general.
The general can't find any soldiers, and he doesn't know!
The small iron gate is like a small lifeboat on the angry sea. It is crowded with drowning people who escaped from the capsized passenger ship. It only takes a small wave to overturn it...
