Chapter 341 Overlord's posture
Seeing that there were dozens of Shu troops pursuing him, Cao Shuang stopped running.
With this small force, if you say you can defeat Cao Shuang and then kill him, no one will believe it. Among them, Cao Shuang sent someone to look over and confirmed that there were no other pursuers from the Shu army. Cao Shuang felt even more relieved.
There were just dozens of people who came to deliver food, and they could all be eaten.
"Line up your troops and prepare to face the enemy!" Cao Shuang snorted coldly, waved his hand and ordered.
Even though he broke out, he still had hundreds of cavalry on hand. Moreover, these cavalry were not broken troops, they were all selected by Cao Shuang from the Central Forbidden Army.
At this time, the quality of Cao Wei's imperial army was still very good, and everyone was capable. As the elite guarding the capital, their per capita combat quality exceeds that of most of the Wei army.
So Cao Shuang is not worried at all. Even if these dozens of people can fight again, he will not be afraid.
How many nails can you drive if you are covered in iron? Can you still destroy us all?
Just when Cao Shuang felt that he was winning and was already thinking about where to go to kill this group of people, he saw dozens of Shu Army cavalry coming straight towards him.
But what shocked Cao Shuang was that these dozens of cavalry did not stop forming. Instead, under the leadership of a general riding a white horse, they formed a tight impact formation and rushed over at full power.
The leading white-horse general seemed to only be wearing a breast goggle and a layer of leather armor all over his body. Except for the mask on his face, Cao Shuang couldn't tell there was anything wrong with him.
"Mask? Are all the generals in Western Shu too embarrassed to see people? How ridiculous!" Cao Shuang thought, snorted and waved his hand.
"Charge in formation! Kill all these desperate Xishu thieves!"
"only!"
When the two sides approached about 200 steps, Cao Shuang waved his hand, and the Wei army formed a counterattack.
Long spears were quickly set up, and hundreds of Wei's cavalry were also at full power, attacking dozens of Xishu cavalry.
But when the two sides got closer to dozens of steps, Cao Shuang keenly felt that something was wrong. These dozens of Shu Han cavalry seem to have something wrong with their riding posture, and they don't feel the same as their own shock cavalry at all.
But having reached this distance, there was no way to stop it, so Cao Shuang let his troops and the Shu army charge into battle.
When the two sides were about to collide, the leading ghost-faced general fiercely pulled out a double-headed gun (similar to the insect stick in Monster Hunter) and rushed over first with a clamp on the horse's belly.
Then, under the nose of Cao Shuang, this Shu Han general easily dodged several spears of Cao Wei's sudden cavalry under a few bumps! Then, as if by chance, the Shuhan general slipped through the gap, brandishing a double-headed spear and fiercely broke into the Wei army's formation!
"Death!" With a roar, several Cao Wei cavalry were swept off their horses! The Han general wielded a spear with great force, knocking over several Wei cavalry in front of him with great force.
That's right, it's a chop, not a stab!
"This is...why didn't he fall off the horse!" Cao Shuang subconsciously thought of this question in his mind.
But before he could figure it out, the Han general in front of him was already like a god of war, slashing all the way through the Wei army's formation. The dozens of Han cavalry that followed were almost seamless and quickly passed through this gap to tear open a hole in the Wei cavalry square!
Cavalry without stirrups can basically only attack with lances, and the saber is almost a decoration. This also means that this group of assault cavalry can only have enough damage to the front. Once the Shu army breaks into its side, their resistance will be very weak.
However, the sabers and spears of the Han cavalry were waving fiercely, and wherever they went, the wails of the Wei cavalry were heard. Under such a huge reaction force, these dozens of cavalrymen sat motionless on horseback!
Dozens of cavalrymen, led by a general who was like the reincarnation of an overlord, forcibly penetrated Cao Shuang! Dozens of Wei cavalrymen were hacked to death, stabbed to death, and trampled to death after falling off their horses.
If Cao Shuang hadn't been able to hide quickly, he might have been hacked to death too!
"You can leave your name when you come, general! Why are you so brave!" Cao Shuang dodged in time to make way. Cao Shuang, who survived the disaster, was a little panicked and yelled quickly.
"A mere Wei invader doesn't deserve to know the name of a Han general!" Ma Su, wearing a ghost mask, turned around and shouted, then brandished his spear and came back to kill him again.
That's right, the Han general who wore a mask and pretended to be King Lanling was Ma Di.
In order to kill more comfortably and not scare Cao Shuang away, Ma Su specially put on a ghost mask. The dozens of personal guards behind him were all equipped with a full set of equipment such as stirrups and horseshoes.
This thing has already appeared in Kunyang, and Cao Wei will copy it sooner or later. It's better to quickly expand our advantage now and end the war in Nanyang with the greatest advantage.
As long as they gain a foothold in Nanyang, the Shu Han army can solidly crush the large corps in Guanzhong and Bingzhou.
As long as Bingzhou and Guanzhong are occupied, Cao Wei's only territory suitable for producing horses will be Youzhou. By then, the Han army's cavalry will be comparable to that of the Wei army, and may even be more numerous than the Wei army's.
Even if Cao Wei imitated things such as stirrups and horseshoes, his cavalry would have no advantage against the Han army.
After penetrating the Wei army's formation, Ma Di changed direction again, preparing to give Cao Shuang another hard blow. However, he found that after the Wei army was penetrated through the formation, the team did not completely collapse. Instead, it reunited under Cao Shuang's deployment.
Penetrating damage alone is not fatal to the military formation. Obviously Ma Su needs a stronger blow.
"In that case..." Ma Di touched his chin and made new arrangements for his subordinates.
"Get everything ready for me so that these Wei dogs will never dare to look at my big Han cavalry again!"
"The big man will win!"
With a chorus of shouts, Ma Di led dozens of guards to turn around and charge again.
"Damn it! It's never over!" Cao Shuang was already a little nervous and no longer as relaxed as before.
No one knows that this group of Shu cavalry is so difficult to deal with. Dozens of people beat him and hundreds of people can beat him so fiercely.
I'm afraid something is going to happen!
"The Wei cavalry! Charge!" Cao Shuang hesitated for a moment, and then gave the order to counterattack. The Wei army once again reorganized their troops and attacked the Shu army again.
However, soon, they were taught how to behave by Ma Su again.
Ma Di was like a god of war, charging over with one man, one horse and one spear. As long as the Wei cavalry standing in front of him is either dead or injured, no one in this group of Forbidden Army soldiers who are good at fighting can be his opponent in one round.
With such a look, he even looks a bit like a king...
Wait, the posture of overlord?
"No, you are Ma Su!" Cao Shuang suddenly realized, and his expression changed instantly!
Damn it, I really met the Overlord of Xishu!
