"die!"
Stabbed to death.
This is not a defeat or a rout, but a large-scale massacre and massacre.
Sun Xiaozhe's face turned pale when he saw it, beads of sweat continued to appear on his forehead, and he muttered: "How is this possible, how is it possible that I won't lose, I won't lose?"
Compared to Sun Xiaozhe, who was panicking, Yin Ziqi was undoubtedly much calmer.
Although he was shocked by the fierce combat effectiveness of the Tang Army's heavy cavalry, he was very clear-headed at this time and had to find a way, otherwise the Chinese army would The remaining cavalry could not withstand the impact of the Tang Army's heavy armored cavalry.
Yin Ziqi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said urgently to Sun Xiaozhe: "Commander, if this continues, we will definitely be defeated.
We must find a way to stop the attack of the opponent's armored cavalry.
It seems that our Chinese cavalry cannot stop it.
We must We need to mobilize troops from the left and right wings, dare to block the Tang Army's iron cavalry before they rush to the big banner, otherwise we will be completely destroyed.
Commander, quickly order the infantry to come over and set up the spear array, otherwise it will be too late."
"Ah, yes, yes, we need to mobilize troops.
We need to mobilize spearmen to block the enemy army.
Quickly pass my order to my general.
We will mobilize 10,000 spearmen from the right wing and order the sword and shield troops of the center to advance."
Sun Xiaozhe started shouting as if he was waking up from a dream. cried out.
Although Sun Xiaozhe's troops were rebels, military orders were executed very quickly.
The 20,000-sword shield soldiers originally placed in front of the banner began to move forward and followed the cavalry to meet the Tang Army's heavy cavalry.
As the 20,000-sword shield soldiers moved forward, Moving, the front of the rebel army began to become vacant, and 10,000 pikemen moved from the right wing and gradually began to fill this gap.
The 20,000 sword and shield soldiers sounded like a large number and looked like a large, dark mass, but in fact, these sword and shield soldiers were all wearing light leather armor.
After the rebel cavalry in front was crushed, they directly attacked the 20,000 sword and shield soldiers.
The soldiers rushed over.
Many rebel soldiers had just seen the figure of the Tang Army's armored heavy cavalry and were quickly frightened by the huge momentum.
"Kang Dang" "Kang Dang" dropped their weapons and the rebel soldiers began to flee.
Other rebel soldiers saw these people fleeing and saw the Tang Army's armored heavy cavalry rushing over in front of them.
How could they still have the courage to fight these people with small shields and small swords?
Armored Cavalry Confrontation Before the Tang Army's armored heavy cavalry formally attacked the 20,000 rebel sword and shield soldiers, a large group of rebel soldiers began to flee in front.
In an instant, the rebel infantry formation was completely rushed away.
How could an army fight without a formation?
Even with little combat effectiveness, other phalanxes were implicated.
Xuan Qi led the armored heavy cavalry and rolled over without any pressure, crushing the fleeing rebel soldiers into bloody meat pies.
There were already many corpses strung on the spears tied to both sides of the horse.
Unable to withstand this kind of weight, it broke.
The released war horse felt much more relaxed, and its sprinting speed seemed to be a little faster.
Sun Xiaozhe and Yin Ziqi had expected that the 20,000 sword and shield soldiers could not withstand the attack of the Tang Army's heavy cavalry.
However, they did not expect that the 20,000 soldiers would be defeated before they came into contact with the enemy.
They were defeated too early and too simply. , they did not really expect that the 20,000 people could play any role.
What they really relied on were the 10,000 pikemen who had just been transferred, and they relied on the 10,000 pikemen to block the opponent's armored heavy cavalry.
However, neither Sun Xiaozhe nor Yin Ziqi expected what happened.
It was only because they had too little experience in commanding troops to fight that the defeated 20,000 sword and shield soldiers did not flee to both sides, nor could they escape to both sides.
Both sides had their own sides.
The infantry formation could only flee backwards.
This large number of defeated sword and shield soldiers directly attacked the 10,000 spearmen blocking the front of the banner.
The front of the spear formation was overwhelmed by the broken troops that came like a tide, and soon swept into the middle.
Sun Xiaozhe saw it in great panic and shouted: "Quickly let those broken troops disperse to the two wings, disperse these idiots, the idiot ordered the spears Attack these broken soldiers and turn them to face the enemy, quickly" The entire battlefield of the Chinese army was in chaos.

It was too chaotic.
Sun Xiaozhe's military orders could not be conveyed as smoothly as before.
The armored heavy cavalry led by Xuan Qi rushed over with great momentum, and all the rebels in front were trampled.
Then, this armored heavy cavalry was like a rice field harvester.
All the troops in front were harvested cleanly, leaving only corpse fragments wherever they passed.
The spearmen in the rear had already thrust their spears diagonally into the ground at this time.
Sun Xiaozhe, Yin Ziqi and all the rebel generals hoped that these spearmen could block the impact of the Tang Army's armored heavy cavalry.
"Boom!"
The Tang Army's armored heavy cavalry collided with the spear array, only to find that the long spears inserted diagonally were all broken after hitting the vests of the Tang Army's armored horses.
The Tang Army's armored cavalry rushed into the spear array like no one was there.
Sun Xiaozhe had high hopes.
The formation of spears could not block the impact of the Tang army's heavy cavalry.
Zhao Ziliang took out the telescope and told Lai Yi: "Send the order for the light cavalry on the left and right wings to attack at the same time."
"promise" As the drums and horns sounded, the light cavalry on the left and right wings of the Tang army began to attack the enemy's left and right wings.
The cavalry had an incomparable advantage over the infantry.
Although the rebels had a large number of troops, most of them were from the Tang army.
These surrendered troops in the past were simply unable to fight against the imperial army.
Before the battle began, the infantry on the left and right flanks of the rebels were at an absolute disadvantage in terms of momentum, and their morale could never be raised.
Tens of thousands of cavalry attacked at the same time, which had never happened since the Anlushan Rebellion.
Sun Xiaozhe looked pale as he saw that the left and right wings of the Tang army had launched an attack.
He shouted: "Order the left and right wings to fight, fight, fight, Defeat the left and right wings of the Tang army for me, so that we can save the defeat."
When Yin Ziqi saw the Tang Army's heavy cavalry rushing over, he knew that the phalanx of pikemen could no longer stop him.
On the one hand, these pikemen were under too much psychological pressure when facing the heavy cavalry.
They had not undergone such training and were afraid.
It is inevitable, everyone has good luck In order to avoid harm, it is unrealistic to expect these pikemen who have never been trained to fight against heavy cavalry to block the opponent's attack.
On the other hand, the quality of the pike is too poor, and the protective ability of the opponent's armored heavy cavalry is too strong.
Breaking the defense, still fighting like this Yin Ziqi advised Sun Xiaozhe: "Commander, I think the spear array can't stop it.
If our starting point does not move to the rear, we will soon be overrun by the Tang army.
Not only will your life and mine be in danger, but also the army will be destroyed."
Total defeat, quickly order to retreat two miles and let the three thousand handsome tent guards stop here."
Although Sun Xiaozhe was extremely reluctant to retreat two miles back, he also knew that what Yin Ziqi said was right.
He could only grit his teeth and order: "Leave the big banner and order the three thousand handsome tent guards to be nailed here.
This must not be done."
Let them attack the handsome platform" According to tactical needs, the coach can retreat, but the large banner that represents the identity of the coach must not retreat.
Once the large banner retreats, the soldiers will think that the army has been defeated, and the chain reaction of a large-scale rout will occur. occur.
The 3,000-strong camp guard army was the only one Sun Xiaozhe had that could be mobilized in time.
This time he left 10,000 men to guard the camp to protect the food, grass and weapons.
The other nearly 90,000 men had already been put into the battlefield.
At this time, it was impossible to mobilize them again. , he could only retreat.
Sun Xiaozhe retreated two miles in fear, and the panic in his heart finally calmed down a little.
The three thousand guards were his trusted men, and they were not afraid of death.
It was precisely because of these three thousand guards that they were able to delay the Tang Army's armored attack.
The impact speed of the heavy cavalry, but they could not completely block the charge of the Tang Army's cavalry.
The impact of the Dashi War Horse was not only powerful and extremely durable, but the distance of a few miles was not worth mentioning to them.
Sun Xiaozhe looked a little embarrassed.

He swallowed and asked Yin Ziqi: "General Yin, do you think the left and right wings can defeat the Tang army?"
Yin Ziqi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Although we have greatly overestimated Zhao Ziliang, I now realize that we still underestimated him too much.
Although he only used more than 20,000 people, the combat power of more than 20,000 people is too powerful.
We Calculation is to beat one out of five We may not be able to defeat them.
Our two wings are all infantry.
The cavalry has a natural advantage over the infantry.
Now I just hope that the imperial army will not fall.
As long as the imperial army does not fall, the infantry on the left and right wings will not lose hope.
I hope that we can use our numerical advantage.
It drained the Tang army’s offensive energy.”
While the two were talking, a large group of Tang Army horse archers appeared on both wings of the rebel 3,000-strong army's guard troops who were resisting the charge of the Tang Army's armored heavy cavalry.
These horse archers continued to move forward after finishing shooting the rebel cavalry.
Attack, constantly firing arrows at the rebels in the middle.
At this time, they have surrounded the three thousand resisting guards from the left and right wings.
The front is being violently attacked, and the rebel guards who have been suddenly hit on both wings can no longer resist.
Complete collapse A large number of defeated soldiers turned around and fled to the rear.
Sun Xiaozhe and Yin Ziqi looked at each other with pale faces and shouted in their hearts at the same time: "It's over."
Sure enough, the rebel escort troops in the rear began to flee, but the front could no longer withstand the waves of heavy cavalry attacks, and the big banner fell suddenly.
At this moment, a guard behind Sun Xiaozhe shouted: "Commander, it's bad, our army's rear camp has been attacked.
Look!"
Sun Xiaozhe and Yin Ziqi turned around at the same time and saw billowing smoke rising over their camp.
This was a sign that a large area of food, grass and tents had been burned.
"It's over, it's over.
Zhao Ziliang must have sent a partial force to bypass our rear and sneak attack the commander of our army camp.
We are completely finished. retreat, retreat quickly, it will be too late if you don't retreat."
Yin Ziqi said and ordered to the two guards around him: " Take the commander and evacuate quickly”:
