The Shenwu Army has lived comfortably in Chang'an for too long.
To be honest, Shi Chonglin is really not sure that he can use 200 cavalry to deal with 500 regular army cavalry, but it is different with 500 horse bandits on the opposite side.
If his 200 Shenwu Army can't deal with 500 Horse bandit, he really has no shame in returning to Chang'an.
With confidence and pride on his face, Shi Chonglin led two hundred Shenwu cavalry in formation in front.
After preparations were completed, he raised his spear and pointed forward: "Welcome the enemy and kill him."
"Kill" the two hundred cavalrymen suddenly agreed, and the military formation slowly moved forward, and then began to accelerate slowly.
When the two hundred Shenwu troops came up to greet them, Zhao Ziliang asked Bo Lehan: "Have you found any other enemy troops around?"
Brahan immediately gestured to the sentry standing on high alert and received a quick response from the sentry.
No other enemies were found.
Zhao Ziliang was slightly relieved, but the situation was still unclear, and he didn't know what kind of medicine the other party was selling in the gourd.
Now he could only use soldiers to block the water and cover it up with earth.
After the two hundred Shenwu Army cavalry started running at a high speed, their momentum was not comparable to that of the five hundred horse bandits who came back from the opposite side.
Although the opponent's number of troops was more than doubled, it was not as powerful as these two hundred Shenwu Army cavalry at all.
The sound of "rumbling" came from far to near.
The knights on both sides sat on the horse and stared ahead, with ferocious faces and murderous intent.
Their bodies kept rising and falling, holding the reins in one hand and the weapon in the other.
As the distance between the two sides increased, As they came closer, their shouts of killing became louder and louder.
"Boom!"
The two sides finally collided.
The dense and relatively neat formation of the Shenwu Army cavalry exerted its greatest overall strength.
The horse bandits in the front row were knocked upside down.
The horse bandits in the back did not understand the situation and had no time to react.
They were knocked away one by one.
Some people were pierced by the Tang Army cavalry's spears like skewers of meat.
Some people were directly knocked out and fell to the ground and were submerged by horse hooves.
The real cavalry charge is definitely not like in the movies and TV shows where the two sides' formations stagger and rush into each other's formation.
You have me and I have you.
It is so chaotic that they fight against each other.
Instead, all the cavalry are like one.
The whole body knocked the opponent into pieces and fell down in pieces like wheat.
Who wins and who loses depends on whose formation is tight and neat, who has fast speed and strong collision force, and who can move forward without fear of life and death.
If one side is timid when charging into the formation, the speed will slow down. , the strength becomes smaller and the reaction becomes slower.
Such a cavalry phalanx is bound to fail when charging.
After successively crushing seven or eight rows of scattered horse bandit cavalry in front of the horse bandits, the Shenwu Army cavalry also began to suffer casualties, and the speed of the attack also began to slow down.
However, the horse bandits were even more unbearable, and the formations on both sides had completely broken up. , many horse bandits saw that only one of them had suffered such heavy losses, and they became timid and turned around and ran away.
Once the escape formed a chain reaction, it almost became a domino.
In such a situation, even the gods could not save the defeat.
The horse bandits were quickly defeated and completely defeated.
"Failed, defeated, the horse bandits were defeated."
From time to time, soldiers in the Tang Army's infantry formation shouted excitedly.
Zhao Ziliang observed the situation with a telescope, but found something was wrong.
After putting down the telescope, he frowned.
Ashina Xin next to him saw his frown and asked: "General, have the horse bandits been defeated?
General Why are you still frowning?”
Zhao Ziliang touched the short stubble on his chin and asked: "Khan, don't you think the horse bandits were defeated too quickly?

After all, there are still 500 men and horses, more than twice as many as Shi Chonglin.
Even if they are defeated, You won’t lose even if you don’t survive a single encounter, right?”
"Hiss" Ashina Xin gasped, with a look of fear on his face, "The general said that this group of horse bandits did it on purpose, and they were not really defeated.
Then their purpose is probably not simple."
At this time, the horse bandits had been completely defeated, and Shi Chonglin was in the midst of a killing spree.
In order to expand the results, he completely forgot Zhao Ziliang's order not to pursue, and led the Shenwu Army cavalry to pursue them.
At this time, Zhao Ziliang no longer cared about talking to Ashina Xin, and immediately said to Bo Han: "You should immediately catch up to General Ben in person and order Shi Chonglin to lead his army back immediately.
You are not allowed to fight."
"Yes," Brahan promised, riding his horse to catch up.
Shi Chonglin led the Shenwu Army cavalry to chase the horse bandits for five miles, and was finally caught up by Bo Lehan.
Bo Lehan conveyed Zhao Ziliang's strict order to Shi Chonglin, and Shi Chonglin reined in his horse unwillingly and stopped.
Returning with the Shenwu Army cavalry, there is another dense rock desert area in front of them, full of towering yellow-brown rocks that are highly weathered.
On a towering rock more than 20 meters high, several horse bandit leaders wearing black gauze scarves and a masked man wearing a brocade robe appeared on the top of the towering rock.
One of the masked horse bandit leaders saw the Shenwu Army.
The cavalry actually stopped in front of this rocky desert bush and quickly returned.
They were surprised and said: "Why did they suddenly stop and return?"
Is it possible that they know there is an ambush here?
There are no Tang Army reconnaissance posts around.
We came here after the Tang Army's detection posts passed and avoided their detection route.
It is impossible for the Tang Army generals to have an ambush here.
Ah, Mr.
Liang, what should we do now?
Your strategy of luring the enemy deep and annihilating them one by one doesn’t seem to be working very well.”
The masked man named Mr.
Liang was also a little surprised and helpless at this time.
He could clearly see that the captain who was leading the army just wanted to lead his troops to kill him, but he was stopped by a cavalryman who was chasing after him. .
Sighing secretly, the masked Mr.
Liang said: "The world-famous Zhao Ziliang is indeed worthy of his reputation.
He actually saw through my plan of cannibalizing one by one."
A short and stocky leader of the horse bandits next to him shouted: "Oh no, it's not your men who dare to die for love, these are all my men who died.
There are five hundred men and horses, and the ones who came back are less than three hundred.
I Damn, the losses are huge, Mr.
Liang, what do you think we should do now?
My nearly three hundred men cannot die in vain, right?"
The face of the masked Mr.
Liang changed, but because he was masked, no one saw the change in his face.
However, his eyes and aura quickly made several horse bandit leaders around him feel it, and the atmosphere became tense.
After a while, the masked Mr.
Liang said: "Don't worry, Mr.
Song, I will pay you two hundred guan for the death of one person, and you will not be short of a penny."
"Two hundred guans per life, Mr.
Liang, life is too worthless in your place, right?
You need at least 1,000 guan per person."
The masked Mr.
Liang turned around and looked at the stocky horse bandit, and said coldly: "Master Song, one price, four hundred guan per person.

You must know that you can't be too greedy.
Everyone is already dead.
Can you?"
It’s better to catch a little bit than to catch nothing at all, what do you think?”
The leader of the horse bandits, Master Song, saw that although Mr.
Liang looked like a weak scholar, he had an aura that could not be violated.
He was actually calmed down and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, four hundred is four hundred.
I hope Mr.
Liang It’s better not to break your promise, otherwise the comrades from other mountains may not agree.”
"Don't worry about this.
I, Mr.
Liang, keep my word and I won't miss you a penny."
Another horse bandit leader said at this time: "Mr.
Liang, what should we do now?
It is no longer possible to cannibalize them.
We want to ambush them.
Their scouts and scouts are frequently dispatched, and they will not let go of detection even in the most dangerous places.
It is difficult for us to ambush them, if If we can't deal with them before entering the 800-mile Mohe Yanqi, it will be impossible to take action.
The 800-mile Mohe Yanqi is too terrifying.
Everyone there is fair, let alone dealing with them, quicksand will be It can kill us all at any time."
Mr.
Liang thought for a while and said: "There is no other way but to find a favorable terrain for a decisive battle with Zhao Ziliang."
The leader of the horse bandits, Master Song, was surprised and said: "Why are you confronting the Tang army head-on, Mr.
Liang?
Are you kidding me?
You are asking us to die."
Mr.
Liang said dissatisfied: "Why are you going to die?
I said, Mr.
Song, together you have a total of 5,000 men and horses, but they are less than 1,200 men and horses, five times as many.
Although Zhao Ziliang is powerful, he only has How can it be that five of your men can't defeat one person alone?"
After thinking about it this way, the leader of the horse bandits felt that he was right.
Five of them could not beat one.
Even if the soldiers of the Tang army were all powerful, as the saying goes, two fists are difficult to defeat with four legs, and an siege would not kill you.
However, the leaders of the horse bandits are the masters who do not let the hawk see the rabbit.
Master Song asked: "Mr.
Liang, if we win, I am afraid that the brothers will also suffer heavy casualties.
If the family members of my brothers have money to compensate, then we How about our brothers?
We brothers can’t work for Mr.
Liang in vain, right?”
The masked Mr.
Liang smiled and said: "Song's boss is a quick talker.
Liang likes to deal with people like Song's boss.
I can give you two choices, choose one: first, each person will be paid one hundred thousand guan; Second, give each of your brothers an official position, at least a county lieutenant or a first battalion school lieutenant."
Master Song and several other horse bandit leaders looked at each other and asked, "Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Liang, do you really mean what you said?"
Mr.
Liang smiled and said: "You have already accepted the meeting gift.
Besides, don't you know who the person behind Liang is?
With that adult speaking, even if you are asked to become a governor and county magistrate, it is only a matter of one sentence." " Several bandit leaders gathered together to discuss for a while.
Some people had deep prejudices against the government and were unwilling to become officials, preferring to get one hundred thousand yuan.
Others did not want money and chose to be officials.
Their own choices.
The masked Mr.
Liang was studying a parchment map on the side.
After several horse bandit leaders had made their choices, he stood up and pointed at a location on the map and said: "Since you all have a choice, let's make a decision."
First defeat Zhao Ziliang and his 1,000 Tang troops.
Then, all the leaders, please order all your troops to retreat one hundred and fifty miles, rest and wait here, and we will defeat Zhao Ziliang here."
"well"
