In the center of the formation, Han Xin looked at the broken army camp charging against the rain of arrows like a tiger descending the mountain. He couldn't help but murmured to himself: "What an invincible broken army camp."
With the popularization of stirrups and saddles, and the victorious battles of Pojun's heavy cavalry, princes from all over the country followed Pojunying's example and formed heavy cavalry troops, such as Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Gongsun Xuanyuan's Yanhuang Heavy Cavalry, and Liu Che's Youyan Heavy Cavalry. , Li Shimin's Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry and so on.
Han Xin naturally also thought about forming heavy cavalry, but Jizhou did not produce war horses. Horses could only be purchased from the two states through Youbin, or from Yuan, Meng and Manchu.
The Qin army did not lack horses, but although Bingzhou sold war horses to foreigners, it never sold them to the princes of Hebei, obviously not wanting to increase the strength of the princes of Hebei.
Although Youzhou has no shortage of war horses, because it is close to the Manchu Empire and there are constant wars between the two sides, there are not enough horses at home, so it is naturally impossible to sell them to outsiders.
The roads between Bingyou and You were blocked, and the princes of Hebei could only buy horses from the Yuan, Meng and Manchus. However, both Yan and Liao were afraid that the Manchus would obtain supplies from them and in turn invade them, so they banned the Manchus. All horse transactions must be confiscated immediately upon discovery.
In this way, with the intervention of Yan and Liao, the princes of Hebei were unable to purchase horses from the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, and could only turn to Yuan and Mongolia.
The Manchu and Qing invasion two years ago was undoubtedly the most difficult time for Yuan and Meng. The reason they survived was by exchanging horses and Hebei princes for resources. Otherwise, Yuan and Meng would have been destroyed by the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.
With the supply of horses from Yuanmeng, Han Xin established a force of 15,000 light cavalry. Later, he wanted to form a heavy cavalry, but found that the consumption of heavy cavalry was much greater than that of light cavalry. The fifteen thousand light cavalry was already used up. After losing Korea's foundation, there was really no extra funds for Han Xin to build heavy cavalry, so Han Xin finally gave up the plan to build heavy cavalry.
After witnessing the demeanor of the heavy cavalry once again, Han Xinzhong regretted his original decision. If he had known that today would happen, he would have formed a heavy cavalry even though he was selling iron. Otherwise, he would not be so passive today.
The heavy armor of the broken barracks was too defensive, and the Korean army could not penetrate it even with powerful crossbows. Although there were a few hits in the eyes and horse legs, it was not important to the overall battle situation.
“Send the order, prepare to throw the javelin, move forward with the spear formation, and prepare the shield formation for defense.” Han Xin coldly ordered.
…
Although the speed at which the military camp was broken was not very fast, the sound was too fierce, as if a storm was blowing over and was going to crush everything in front of it.
The arrow rain had no effect. Thousands of harpooneers gathered in front of the formation, and another spear formation was erected behind them.
Thousands of spears were pointed forward, forming a forest of cold and awe-inspiring spears. If the army camp did not slow down, even if it forced its way past the javelins, it would definitely hit them and cause bloodshed.
Zhang Liao, who was at the front of the camp, saw this and immediately shouted: "Everyone, disperse."
Broken the military camp and issued orders and prohibitions.
Zhang Liao gave the order, and the five thousand military camps dispersed immediately, and then thousands of javelins flew over.
The accuracy of javelins is much worse than that of bows and arrows, and the density is even more incomparable. Therefore, if the formation is sufficiently dispersed, it is difficult for javelins to cause much damage to the cavalry.
Soon, the Korean javelin soldiers had carried out three rounds of throwing, causing more than 300 casualties to the Pojun camp, while the Pojun camp rushed all the way to the Korean camp in one fell swoop.
Boom…
Hundreds of throwing soldiers who had no time to retreat were directly knocked away by the Pojun camp, but the Pojun camp still did not slow down and rushed directly towards the gun array.
"Kill." Zhang Liao galloped forward and headed straight for the general commanding the javelin troops. He had lost so many heavy cavalry in the broken barracks. Since Zhang Liao had encountered him, he naturally couldn't let him go.
“Well come.”
Wang Qing was overjoyed. Zhang Liao was the commander-in-chief of the Qin army. Killing him would be a great achievement.
“General, we will give you a helping hand.”
Li Xiong and Bi Xian also came together, preparing to attack Zhang Liao with Wang Qing.
Jiang Song from the rear saw this and was about to come to help in the battle, but before he could open his mouth, Zhang Liao had already stepped forward to greet him.
“Come on, die!” Zhang Liao shouted violently and slashed out with his sword.
【Ding dong, Zhang Liao activates the skill ‘King of Swords’, with force +3, and the current force rises to 109. 】
Wang Qing saw that Zhang Liao's sword was fierce and invincible, so he prepared to defend himself. Unexpectedly, after the sword and gun collided, the steel gun in his hand was cut off, and then a head flew out, and he died with his eyes open.
“General Wang.”
Li Xiong and Bi Xian were furious when they saw this, but Zhang Liao ignored them. He first knocked away Li Xiong's weapon with his sword, then swept Bi Xian off his horse with his sword, and then cut off Li Xiong's head with a backhand sword, while Bi Xian was also killed on the ground. Jiang Song's horse that caught up was trampled to death.
On the high platform in the center of the formation, Han Xin saw that Zhang Liao had defeated three generals and killed two generals in less than two rounds. He couldn't help but whispered angrily: "These three trash."
He had warned in advance that he would never fight with the generals of the Qin army unless absolutely necessary, but Wang Qing and the other three ignored his orders. Their death would have a big impact on the morale of the entire army.
"Instruct the rear cavalry to prepare. After breaking through the gun formation, the barracks will be blocked by our shield formation. Then it will be the time for our cavalry to dispatch." Han Xin said coldly.
)
The other half, after breaking through the formation of the army camp, rushed straight into the formation and headed straight for the forest of guns. Tens of thousands of cavalry followed closely behind, rushing into the formation to wreak havoc.
Boom…
As expected by Han Xin, the numerous spear formations were still unable to hinder the trapping camp. Under the impact of the trapping heavy cavalry, most of the spears were broken, and the spear formation was directly knocked out of the trapping camp to create a big hole.
In front of the shield formation, Zhang He looked at the overwhelming force of the broken military camp. He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva subconsciously, and then shouted: "Euphorbismen, raise the shield."
Although Han Xin could not form heavy cavalry, he could still form heavy infantry. The Euphorbias were the heavy infantry carefully crafted by Han Xin in imitation of the trapped camp, and were led by Han Xin's confidant general Zhang He.
“Kill, kill, kill…”
Five thousand Euphorbia soldiers in heavy armor each erected a strong shield as high as one person, and then quickly formed a whole body, which was heavily inserted into the groove in the ground.
Zhang Liao couldn't see the scene behind the shield. He only saw that the Korean army was just erecting their shields. He couldn't help but laugh and said: "You want to stop me from breaking through the military camp with just a few thousand shields? It's just a dream."
Break the military camp, continue the charge, and directly overwhelm the Korean army's formation. "
“To break the momentum of the army, advance but never retreat…”
The second update is here to make up for the missing update yesterday. There will be another update when I get back in the evening. In addition, thank you for counting the 10,000 reward for that little biscuit. Currently, I still owe two chapters after the reward.
