The rebel central army has 10,000 fine cavalry.
This is all the cavalry power in Sun Xiaozhe's hands.
The purpose of deploying these 10,000 fine cavalry in the central army is to defeat Zhao Ziliang's central army in one fell swoop.
The first few rows of these 10,000 fine cavalry are Hundreds of armored cavalry, this is all Sun Xiaozhe has in his hands Armored cavalry.
Cui Qianyou used these hundreds of armored cavalry to lead the charge and overwhelm Feng Changqing's troops.
As a result, Feng Changqing was beaten back one after another.
This time, in order to deal with Zhao Ziliang's cavalry, Sun Xiaozhe asked An Lushan to capture Cui Qianyou.
These armored cavalry were borrowed.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The rebel army dispatched 10,000 cavalry.
The momentum was really majestic.
A fierce battle broke out on the ground.
The thunderous sound of horse hooves came from the opposite side.
The horses' hooves flew, soil and grass clippings flew, and in the hands of the rebels, The weapons glowed coldly.
Facing the rebels' fierce 10,000 elite cavalry, the Beiting Army's 3,000 horse archers showed no fear and continued to rush forward.
Bai Xiaode shot out the bow and arrow in his hand and shouted: "All officers and soldiers listen to the order, shoot five times in a row, and let go of the arrow."
The messenger who followed Bai Xiaode on horseback immediately waved the small flag in his hand and raised the flag.
When the horse archers behind saw the signal sent by the messenger, they opened their bows and fired arrows one after another, even though the horses were galloping.
Among them, the archers and soldiers were not affected in any way.
Not to mention cavalry archers, just say that according to the army training methods of the Tang Dynasty, it takes three years to train an infantryman into an infantry archer with excellent shooting.
This training time is affected by many aspects, the most restricted is arrows.
Arrows and bows, the arrows and bows used for training cannot be provided infinitely, and soldiers are also lazy and cannot practice diligently every day.
Therefore, it takes three years for an infantry archer to grow.
In this regard, the Beiting Army did better than other military towns in the Tang Dynasty and the Sixteenth Guards of the Central Army.
In order to train infantry archers and cavalry archers, the Beiting Army consumed a large amount of arrows and bowstrings almost every year.
Especially for the training of cavalry archers, the soldiers urged the soldiers to practice diligently every day, and the soldiers worked closely with the horses.
They ate and slept together and trained like this for five years before reaching the current scale of 10,000 horse archers.
This time Zhao Ziliang brought 5,000 horse archers from Beiting.
The combat effectiveness of the horse archers can only be truly tested through actual combat.
Come out, and this battle is the best moment to test the combat effectiveness of the cavalry.
"Swish, swish," the arrows flying into the sky fell one after another.
The rebel cavalry who were running at high speed were hit by arrows one after another.
Some fell to the ground and died, and some were trampled to pieces by the cavalry behind them after they landed. , some people were hit by arrows and seriously injured.
Even among the first few rows of armored cavalry, many people were seriously injured after arrows penetrated their armor and fell to the ground.
The archers and cavalry soldiers moved like the wind, and were extremely flexible.
Drawing the bow and shooting arrows was as simple and easy as a daily routine.
All the soldiers of the Beiting Army knew that this was the result of years of hard training.
When Sun Xiaozhe saw his Chinese cavalry rushing out, they were constantly shot and killed by the cavalry from the opposite Tang army.
Large swaths of the cavalry were hit by arrows and died.
This level of casualties made him terrified.
He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Why?
Possibly, how is this possible?
Why is the Beiting Army's cavalry shooting so powerful?
This kind of cavalry shooting is not as good as even the most elite barbarian cavalry."
Lieutenant General Yin Ziqi gasped after seeing this scene.

He wiped a cold sweat, turned to look at Sun Xiaozhe and said: "Commander, we only think that Zhao Ziliang has outstanding military exploits and is invincible.
He has been famous for a long time, but he Forgot to achieve this To this extent, he must be an expert in military training, otherwise how could he have been undefeated for so many years?
You know, even Cui Qianyou, Tian Chengsi, Ge Shuhan, Feng Changqing, Guo Ziyi, Li Guangbi, An Sishun and other famous generals are him "Young junior" Sun Xiaozhe gritted his teeth and watched as his own cavalry fell down after being hit by arrows.
In just a short period of time, at least 1,500 people were injured or killed.
The casualties were too great.
They had not even engaged in close combat with the Tang army.
Casualties, how can we fight future battles from now on?
On the commander's platform at the rear of the Tang army, the generals were surprised to see the cavalry cavalry causing such heavy casualties to the rebel central cavalry.
This superb cavalry and archery combat skill was so powerful.
Look at the cavalry archers doing so.
The strong figures on horseback do not feel awkward or awkward at all.
They seem to be integrated with the war horses, but they are able to control the horses freely.
This heroic scene of galloping horses is so beautiful.
"Oh my God, what did I see?"
Prince Rong Li Wan, who was wearing guard armor, couldn't help but screamed as he watched the cavalry archers shooting at the rebel cavalry.
When Zhao Ziliang heard this voice, he turned around and glared at Li Wan with dissatisfaction.
Li Wan shrank his neck in response to the glare.
When Zhao Ziliang turned his head again, he immediately whispered to his attendants: "Hurry and get it for me.
Here comes the pen and ink scroll, I want to draw this scene, go quickly."
"Uh, yes."
The attendant was stunned for a moment, then turned and left immediately.
At first, Li Wan was so frightened that he almost peed his pants because he had never seen such a huge scene before.
Now that he got used to it, he became extremely excited again.
Zhao Ziliang could not focus all his attention on King Rong.
Although this guy had a noble status, he used a telescope to observe the situation on the battlefield.
When he saw that the cavalry archers were not far away from the front row of the enemy cavalry, he immediately shouted: "With the order, the archers immediately implemented the tactics of dividing the troops, bypassing both sides of the rebel center and continuing to shoot.
At the same time, I ordered the three thousand heavy armored cavalry in the center of the center to attack, so that my commander could overwhelm the enemy's center and go straight to the location of the rebel commander."
"Get the order" Marching Sima Laiqi immediately conveyed Zhao Ziliang's military order.
When the herald gave the order, the drums and horns sounded at the same time, and the flag bearers kept shouting flags.
After hearing the sound of bugles and drums, the messengers following Bai Xiaode immediately turned around to observe the flags on the commander's platform at the rear, and then shouted to Bai Xiaode: "General, the commander ordered to use the tactics of dividing the troops to shoot on both sides of the enemy cavalry."
Bai Xiaode shouted while shooting arrows: "What are you waiting for?
Send the order immediately."
"Nuo" the messenger immediately raised the flag.
After the flag was played, Bai Xiaode pulled the stirrup with his left foot.
The horse understood and immediately turned to the left and galloped away.
The flag officer, flag bearer and messenger immediately followed him.
The horse archers on the left behind him began to turn quickly, and his The deputy general led the horse archers on the right to quickly go around to the right, but at this time the arrows in their hands were still shooting out.
In just a few breaths, the cavalry archer phalanx transformed from a horizontal rectangular phalanx into an inverted figure-eight shape and passed through the large gap in the inverted figure-eight shape towards the rebel cavalry.
The rebel cavalry rushed over angrily. , only to find that the enemy troops in front of him were running to the left and right sides.
This feeling was extremely uncomfortable, like a punch hitting cotton.
When the small gap of the archers widened and they completely escaped to the wings, what appeared in front of the rebels were rows of neatly armored cavalry shining with a cold metallic luster.
Not only were the knights fully armored, but only two eyes remained.
Outside, even the war horses are almost entirely covered in iron armor.
On the other hand, the rebels In the first few rows of armored cavalry, the knights only wear armor on their upper bodies, and their helmets are still armored.
After all, the helmet uses too much iron, while the rebel armored cavalry's horses only have body and armor, and no other parts of the armor.

This kind of defense The ability is completely incomparable with the armored heavy cavalry of the Beiting Army, and is more than one level behind.
The heavy armored cavalry leaders of the Beiting Army are Xuan Qi and Xuan Ba, each with five thousand.
The one who followed Zhao Ziliang this time is Xuan Qi.
The strategic level combat force of the heavy armored cavalry army is really too important. , Zhao Ziliang can only let his most trusted and loyal people lead him.
Even if it is handed over to Li Sheng, Li Siye, Pugu Huai'en and others, he is worried.
After receiving the military order, Xuan Qi took out his iron horse, raised it and shouted: "Soldiers, the time has come to test our armored heavy cavalry regiment.
What is our slogan?"
Three thousand armored heavy cavalry who were ready to charge raised their 1.6-foot-long spears and shouted: "If you go forward indomitably, I will be invincible."
"Attack" Xuan Qi roared, clamping his legs around the horse's belly, "Ha" the tall and powerful horse jogged forward.
The 3,000 armored heavy cavalry behind Xuan Qi all started to jog in order, and the rumble of horse hooves was even louder than the previous 10,000 rebel cavalry.
"Hiss" Marching Sima Laiyi This was the first time he saw the armored heavy cavalry in battle.
He couldn't help but gasped.
This extremely precise and uniform galloping movement was too shocking.
Even when he was planning The horse was not messy at all during the galloping process, and the picture of still neat and tidy was really unreal.
All three thousand armored heavy cavalry began to jog and then gradually began to accelerate.
This tactic of going from jogging to gradually accelerating, and then maintaining a high and stable sprint speed to rush towards the enemy has long been trained to perfection, although the soldiers were a little nervous.
But this does not affect their fighting subconscious that has been deeply rooted in their bones.
"Oh my god, what kind of monster is this?"
When the rebels' front rows of iron cavalry saw the rows of iron cavalry rushing towards them, everyone suddenly showed a look of fear.
Once they start to fear on the battlefield, their combat effectiveness will be greatly increased.
If you discount it, you have lost your fighting spirit, so why talk about fighting?
At this time, the rebel cavalry not only had to be shot by the Tang Army's cavalry on both sides, but also faced the torrent of steel rushing towards them.
Many people had already thought of retreating, but they could not stop at this time.
Once they stopped, You will be knocked away by your companions behind you.
With a "boom", the heavy cavalry from both sides finally collided.
The Beiting Army's armored heavy cavalry, which had tall war horses and sophisticated equipment, completely had the upper hand.
The battle scene was a crushing one.
Rows of rebel cavalry looked like dirt.
The wall was knocked down by bulldozers in a devastating manner:
