Chapter 1542 Fierce Battle
Chapter 1540: Fierce battle
Before the heavy cavalry of the broken army could even rejoice that they had killed one level, the hind hoof of the war horse was suddenly cut off by someone, and the whole person was thrown to the ground. Because he was wearing heavy armor, it was difficult to get up for a while.
On the battlefield, if heavy cavalry and heavy infantry fall to the ground, it will be difficult to get up again, and the only thing that will greet them is death.
This heavy horseman was no exception. He was immediately surrounded and suppressed by the euphorbias, and then he was pierced through the throat by the euphorbias and died.
Although there are many such situations, they are not the mainstream after all, and the common situations are rather weird.
The heavy cavalry that breaks the barracks and the heavy infantry of the Euphorbias are all heavy units equipped with heavy armor and helmets, and their defensive power is naturally extremely powerful.
Therefore, even if the soldiers attack each other with all their strength, it is still difficult to break through the defense. Only by attacking the parts without armor protection can the opponent be killed quickly and effectively.
The equipment of the Pojun heavy cavalry includes: fish scale armor, shoulder armor, arm armor, knee armor, combat boots, helmet, and mask. It can be said that it is armed to the teeth. Only the eyes, neck, wrists, elbows, and knees are exposed. outer.
The equipment of the Han army is generally imitated from the Qin-style equipment. Although the overall defense is one level worse than that of the Qin army, the styles are actually similar, so there are only these five exposed parts.
Both sides know that these five points are defensive weaknesses, so they are naturally more careful. The Pojun Camp and the Euphorbia Soldiers are both elites, but if the other party is on guard, it is obviously difficult to accurately attack these five parts. Not an easy task.
Cavalry has to protect one more part than infantry, and that is to prevent the other party from cutting off the horse's head. However, war horses are also alert, and it is equally difficult to cut off a horse's legs while on guard.
Therefore, there was such a strange scene. Although the battle between the heavy cavalry and the Euphorbia warriors was fierce, the number of casualties was not high.
The two sides were fighting back and forth, and the fight was fierce, but not many people died at all, and no one could do anything to anyone in a short period of time.
But overall, the Euphorbias who restrained the cavalry suffered more casualties than those who broke the barracks.
There are two reasons for this:
First, the individual combat power of the Pojun camp is greater than that of the Euphorbia soldiers.
Secondly, the weight of the Korean army's heavy armor is much heavier than that of the Qin army's heavy armor.
Although Po Junying and Euphorbia Soldiers are both elites in the world, there is a gap between the elites, and Po Junying specializes in fighting the elite.
Many elites such as the Yellow Turban Warriors, Overlord Cavalry, Xuanjia Army, and Flying Bear Army were all defeated by Guo Po Army Camp. This made Po Army Heavy Cavalry develop an invincible trend early on, and its innate strength was better than that of the enemy. With a high score of 30%, the combat power displayed will naturally be stronger.
As for the Euphorbia warriors, they are also composed of elites, but after all, they are only wreaking havoc in Jizhou and have fought too few tough battles, so their overall combat strength is naturally weaker than that of Pojunying.
As for the second point, it is because the forging skills of the Korean army are much worse than that of the Qin army, and they cannot make armor with high defense and light weight like the Qin army.
In order to make up for the lack of defense, we can only increase the weight to make up for the quality. This also resulted in the phenomenon that the defensive power of the Korean army's armor was obviously worse than that of the Qin army's armor, but its weight was actually heavier than that of the Qin army's armor.
The weight of the armor is heavier, and the physical exertion of the soldiers is greater, but the physical exertion of the Qin army is not so great.
Under the circumstances, the Pojun heavy cavalry became stronger and stronger as the battle progressed, while the Euphorbia warriors became weaker and weaker. It would only be a matter of time before they were defeated by the Pojun camp.
"What a broken military camp. It is indeed the best heavy cavalry in the world. It is indeed difficult to deal with."
Zhang He said to himself with a solemn expression, and at the same time he admired Han Xin even more.
Han Xin never thought that the Euphorbias alone could defeat the Pojun camp that had lost its impact, so after the Euphorbias stopped the Pojuncamp, he sent out his cavalry to fight.
Tens of thousands of cavalry came in two groups and joined forces with the Euphorbia soldiers to defeat the barracks. However, the barracks were still unwilling to be outdone. With only 5,000 troops, they fought on three sides alone. They had no intention of retreating, but they were indeed somewhat weak. At the critical moment, Zhang Liao commanded the Qin cavalry in the rear to arrive in time. Although the broken barracks failed to completely clear the road, it had opened a large gap, which was enough for the Qin cavalry to rush into the formation and collapse the entire formation bit by bit. .
With the help of the Qin army's cavalry, the Pojun camp once again regained control of the situation. The two sides fought for every inch of land around a palm-sized area, and the battle was extremely tense.
Han Xin saw that the euphorbias and cavalry still failed to defeat the military camp, and with the Qin cavalry at full strength, the battle situation would definitely be more unfavorable to him, so he immediately waved the command flag to operate the formation, using the entire formation to share Qin's burden The pressure of military offensive.
Under Han Xin's calm command, the eight-door military formation formed a whole. Although it blocked the 40,000 Qin army's cavalry, it did not allow the Qin army to completely overwhelm the formation. However, overall, the Han army was still weak. The suppressed party.
Han Xin had to admit that he still underestimated the Qin army. The Qin army was strong in all aspects, not only in the elite troops such as the broken barracks, but also in the combat power of ordinary cavalry.
With 40,000 cavalry launching an offensive together, even a large formation of 80,000 Korean troops can only resist it for a while. After a long time, it will still be unable to withstand it.
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more unfavorable, Han Xin could not help but flash a trace of determination in his eyes. He drew his sword from his waist and shouted: "Hold on, reinforcements are coming soon."
As he said that, Han Xin actually jumped off the command platform and personally joined the battle.
【Ding dong, Han Xin activates the skill ‘Sword General’, with force +2, basic force 80, equipment +2, and current force increased to 84. 】
【Ding dong, Han Xin’s skill ‘Bing Xian’ effect 3 is activated, the military force of the entire army will be +2, and the combat power and morale of the entire army will be increased...
Han Xin’s current force has increased to 86;
Zhang He’s current force has increased to 107;
…]
"My lord has already joined the battle, and if we don't die in service, then when will we wait, soldiers, kill them." Zhang He roared, waving his spear.
【Ding dong, Zhang He activates the skill ‘King of Guns’, with force +3, and the current force rises to 110. 】
"Kill, fight with the Qin army..."
Han Xin's personal participation in the battle and the skill blessing of the "Bing Xian" greatly increased the combat power and morale of the Korean army.
The Korean army was constantly retreating after being beaten by the Qin army, and was not far away from the complete collapse of the formation. However, with the help of the two forces, it had the power to counterattack, and for a while it was even on par with the Qin army.
Zhang Liao was not surprised but overjoyed when he saw this scene. If Han Xin had stayed in the enemy's sight, he wouldn't have had any good way to deal with him, but now that he had taken the initiative to expose himself, this was a great opportunity to kill him in one fell swoop.
Zhang Liao slashed his sword and killed the Euphorbia warrior in front of him. He then took advantage of the gap and rode his horse in the direction of Han Xin. He took off his bow and arrow and whispered to himself: "Han Xin, suffer death."

[Basic update is here, correcting an error in the previous chapter. I mentioned in the previous article that Zhang He is already a divine general, but Liu Xiang accidentally forgot it, so the Zhang He's Jiwu shown in the previous chapter is wrong, and it has been corrected. . 】
