In front of the heavily armored knights of the Xia army, the seemingly impregnable defense line of the Eastern Liao army was quickly broken through; Li Liangzuo led the heavy cavalry to continue to assault forward, and the light cavalry that followed after passing through the defense line of the Eastern Liao Army, divided into two, left and right bows, and began to fight back Although the defense line of the Eastern Liao Army has been broken, the Eastern Liao Army did not rout, but continued to fight against the Xia Army under the leadership of the generals, and the gap broken by the Xia Army was quickly repaired by the Eastern Liao Army.
Now the situation on the battlefield has become what it is now, the Xia army led by Li Liangzuo is completely in the two-sided attack of the Eastern Liao Army, as far as the battlefield situation is concerned, Li Liangzuo's Xia army can be said to be in a disadvantageous position, but although the Xia army is facing the two-sided attack of the Eastern Liao Army, the Xia army is not at a disadvantage, but the Eastern Liao Army is getting more and more difficult.
In order to block Li Liangzuo's attack, in order to gain time to eliminate Li Yi, Yelu Nerugu sent the only elite Tielin Army under his command, the Tielin Army is the Imperial Forest Army of the Emperor of Liao, all of which are composed of Khitan warriors with very strong combat effectiveness, and the Tielin Army is a rare elite cavalry unit in the world before the Liao State was divided.
But since the division of the Liao State, the Tielin Army has also undergone some changes, the original elite of the Liao State of the Tielin Army has also been divided into two, in the battlefield of the civil war a large amount of consumption, Yelu Nelugu under the command of the Tielin Army is a rare elite force left from the Liao State before the split, is the real essence of the Liao State.
This is a cavalry duel, and it is also the key to this war, and it is also another battle between the elites of Xia and Liao; The two cavalry armies are like two opposite collision cars, both use their strength to accelerate, speed will be the key to determining the victory or defeat on the battlefield of the cavalry duel, the two armies are especially the cavalry duel, the victory is often decided in an instant, what three hundred rounds of the big battle are, the two armies collide with only one move or one round to decide the winner; If it were really three hundred rounds of battle, I am afraid that people would have died of exhaustion.
When the two armies charged against each other, the heavy armored cavalry of the Xia army formed a conical formation, and all the horse lances were pointed straight forward, and the heavy armored knights of the Xia army were holding the horse lance in one hand, holding the reins in the other, and their legs were tightly clamped on the horse's belly on the stirrup, plus these heavy armored knights had locked themselves on the war horse with iron chains, so even if the knight died in battle, the war horse still charged forward.
The speed of the war horse sprint is very fast, and soon the two armies meet, the long pole horse lance used by the knights of the Xia army is much longer than the Khitan cavalry knife used by the Tielin army, of course, the focus of the two weapons is not the same, and the horse lance has two actions in the hands of the knight, one is a thorn, and the other is a pick; These two seemingly simple actions are extremely lethal, and often after the knights of the Xia Army have done these two actions, their opponents have already seen the king of Hades; The Khitan cavalry of the Tielin Army, that is, the long scimitar, mainly focuses on swinging and chopping, and the use of these two tricks is also extremely lethal in the hands of the knights, especially when dealing with infantry, basically the riding knife will only leave a head where it passes.
But now it's different, because both sides are cavalry, in such a duel between cavalry and cavalry, the three kinds of war horses, weapons and armor are extremely important, excellent war horses with sharp weapons plus a set of unparalleled armor, and then a strong warrior to exert their power, so that in a battle victory is often about seventy percent, as long as the general is not a military idiot, victory is basically within reach.
From war horses, weapons to armor, there is not much difference between the Xia army and the Tielin army, the real difference is in the weapon, the long pole horse lance used by the Xia army is obviously much longer than the Khitan cavalry knife used by the Tielin army, as the so-called one-inch long, one-inch strong Xia army uses a horse lance than the Tielin army The attack distance is much farther than the Khitan cavalry knife used by the Tielin army, that is to say, when the two armies are fighting, the Xia army can give priority to the Eastern Liao army to attack.
It is precisely because of this that when the Tielin Army has not yet reached its own attack range, it may be directly killed by the heavy armored knights of the Xia Army, so at the beginning of the elite battle between the two sides, the Tielin Army fell into a passive situation, and there were constantly knights falling from their horses, and on this battlefield where the horses were galloping, falling from the horses meant death, but despite this, the Tielin Army also caused great casualties to the heavy armored cavalry of the Xia Army.
Because the heavy cavalry of the Xia army used a long weapon like a horse lance, although it had a great advantage when the two armies had just begun to fight, once the two armies were strangled together, when the Tielin army approached the heavy armored knights of the Xia army and reached the attack range, it was difficult for the heavy armored knights of the Xia army to wield the horse lance to protect themselves; So in order to avoid this from happening, the heavy cavalry of the Xia army was often protected by those in the back, and there was a cross between the front team and the rear team.
Although this approach can protect your teammates, it can also cause accidental injuries if you are not careful; The heavy cavalry of the Xia army and the Tielin army of the Eastern Liao army only carried out a duel charge, leaving a large number of corpses along the way, and the two armies almost ended in a draw, and the casualties of the heavy armored knights of the Xia army were much less than those of the Tielin army.
After breaking through the defense line of the Tielin Army, Li Liangzuo, who was covered in blood, immediately ordered: "Sun Zhen obeyed the order and led a part of the heavy cavalry to block the Tielin Army from returning to the camp of the Eastern Liao Army, and the rest of the soldiers followed me to smash Yelu Nerugu's lair." ” "The last general commands" Sun Zhen immediately took over the military order.
Sun Zhen led a part of the heavy cavalry to continue to fight against the Tielin Army in accordance with Li Liangzuo's military order, and Li Liangzuo led the rest of the soldiers and horses to kill directly to the camp of Yelu Nelugu, at this time the cavalry troops led by Li Yi were surrounded by the Eastern Liao Army, and the space for the cavalry to move was getting smaller and smaller, and once the cavalry lost the space range of its activities, its combat effectiveness would plummet, and the knight on the horse would become a lamb to be slaughtered.
In order to expand the scope of his activities, Li Yi divided his cavalry into several teams and ran back and forth to kill; Li Yi understood that once he stopped at this time, he thought that the whole army was annihilated, and at this time Li Yi was ready to die at any time, Li Yi said loudly to the only soldiers under his command: "Brothers, today we sacrifice our lives for righteousness, and today next year is our death day, our names will remain in the martyrs' shrine forever, and future generations will give us three pillars of high incense; Brothers, for the sake of our wives and children, and for the sake of the prosperity of the Great Xia Kingdom, kill me."
"Kill, kill, kill" The soldiers under Li Yi's command roared with red eyes.
At this time, the rescue army led by Li Liangzuo was already very close to the place where Li Yi was surrounded, and hearing these familiar shouts and killings, Li Liangzuo urged the war horse to run and issued a military order: "The whole army charges, and those who dare to stop my Daxia soldiers will be killed."
"No forgiveness for killing, no forgiveness for killing" On the other side, Yelu Nerugu had a panoramic view of the entire battlefield, and seeing the Xia army reinforcements approaching step by step, Yelu Nerugu issued a military order: "Pass the order, stop the Xia army reinforcements at all costs." ” "Yes, the last general commands," a lieutenant general said.
