Legend of Saint Demon

Chapter 1508

In fact, the distance between the two sides is less than 300 meters. It will soon arrive at the speed of cavalry. Just when the heavy cavalry at the head of the platoon is about to contact the enemy, the enemy suddenly starts to retreat towards both sides, leaving a huge gap for the cavalry. Du Xing, who watched the formation in the distance, shook his head with a bitter smile and then muttered: "Is the other party's commander a fool? Let my heavy cavalry rush in directly. It's obviously suicidal?"

However, before Du Xing finished his words, a sudden change occurred. The heavy cavalry who rushed into the enemy array did not know how to do it, but all fell to the ground one by one. With the weight of heavy armor on the cavalry and horses, this fall was very serious, especially when the horses sprained their legs directly after falling. For a time, the horse's scream was mixed with the knight's scream!

The heavy cavalry in front fell down one after another. The light cavalry behind the heavy cavalry couldn't brake. All of them hit the heavy cavalry falling in front. As a result, a large number of light cavalry were tripped, and the scene was completely in chaos.

Some responsive light cavalry pulled the reins and stopped the horses, but before they turned and wanted to withdraw, the chaotic enemy suddenly surrounded all the cavalry from behind, because the horses stopped, the cavalry could not form an impact, and it was impossible to rush out!

When these cavalry panicked, many hook and sickle guns were found out from the enemy's encirclement. The head of these special weapons was like a sickle, and the blade was made of fine steel. As long as the hook hit the horse's leg, it would definitely cut the horse's leg, and the horse with leg injury could not stand stably and fall down, and all the cavalry riding on the horse fell down !

In order to give the infantry buffer time, the infantry of the rebel army are about 100 meters away from the cavalry in front. At this time, when they see the cavalry trapped, the infantry speed up and want to rush to open a breakthrough to save the cavalry. However, just when the infantry are about to contact the enemy, the enemy's rear array suddenly flies over to block out the sky and the sun. Because the other party is close to the camp, all the archers are there Standing in the wooden archery tower, the height is just high enough for the bow and arrow to draw a huge arc, fly over the battle regiment and fall into the infantry array of the rebel army. The infantry didn't expect the enemy to come. They didn't react at once. Many people were put down by the first round of bow and arrow!

When the enemy's second round of bows and arrows came, the infantry thought of using leather shields to defend. However, the main purpose of leather shields is to defend against the enemy's attack in white-edge warfare. Its shielding area is not large, and it can barely protect the head to the chest. As a result, most people were hit by arrows in this round of volley. The only better thing than before is that they blocked the key points of the upper body, So most of the people who were shot by bows and arrows were injured and not many died!

Just when two rounds of bows and arrows blocked the advance of the rebel infantry array, the enemy infantry had formed a shield array. All the shields held by the enemy infantry were tower shields that could cover the knees. After the shield array was assembled, all the tower shields were standing on the ground. Then, under the cover of the shield, the long spearmen stabbed out irresponsibly with their long guns, and all close to the shield The rebel soldiers in the array screamed and fell in a pool of blood!

On the other hand, the cavalry trapped in the middle finally reduced the casualties under the desperate resistance, but the cavalry in the enemy line will face attacks from all directions. Many soldiers were poked into a sieve by several or even dozens of long guns, and even dragged down their horses and divided their bodies. The degree of tragedy can not be described in words!

Du Xing in the rear array was red eyed when he saw this situation. He could not have imagined that the situation of the war would become like this. In less than 15 minutes from the start of the war, nearly half of his 50000 strong army was damaged, and what he couldn't accept was that the cavalry was almost completely destroyed!

This situation is unacceptable to Du Xing. He is a pioneer general. Long Tianci trusts him to hand over 50000 vanguard troops to him. Now, the first battle has not defeated the enemy, but suffered heavy losses. What makes him look like to see long Tianci again?

At the thought of this, Du Xing was really anxious. He drank loudly and led his 300 Pro guard cavalry crazy to the enemy array. Now he doesn't expect to defeat the enemy. As long as he can save some cavalry, he will be satisfied!

Waving an iron pole and a long gun, Du Xing rushed into the enemy array first, and more than 300 cavalry behind him followed closely. Although the cavalry could not make much impact because of its small number, the single point breakthrough ability was enough. In the moment of contact with the enemy's shield array, the powerful impact completely scattered the shield array, and then the more than 300 cavalry led by Du Xing was as powerful as a horse The broken bamboo rushed into the enemy's battle array!

As soon as he entered the battle array, Du Xing was foolish. At this time, the enemy had long lost its scattered appearance. More than 30000 enemy troops formed a three-layer concentric circle array. The innermost circle center was the besieged rebel cavalry. Now there are only about half of the 8000 cavalry troops with heavy cavalry and light cavalry, and most of them have changed from cavalry to cavalry Some soldiers were wounded and were struggling against the enemy around them.

Outside the cavalry was a circular array. The enemy infantry surrounded the shield wall with shields, so that the cavalry could not break through. Some enemy soldiers with spears and sickle guns looked for the flaws of the cavalry in the gap of the shield array and took the opportunity to attack.

In the second circle of this circle, there is another round array, but this round array faces outward. It is obviously a defensive round array. As long as someone breaks through the shield array of the outermost layer, the second layer of round array can also play a blocking role!

When Du Xing saw the badly wounded cavalry, he completely lost his mind and shouted, waving his long gun and rushed to the second round array. When Du Xing rushed over with the 300 cavalry, the soldiers of the second round array not only did not resist, but even took the initiative to make a gap for them to pass through. Du Xing was not a fool. The cavalry suffered such a loss before, So Du Xing quickly pulled the reins to stop the horse.

Unfortunately, Du Xing's reaction was still a step slow. Just as he pulled the reins, the horse had fallen down. Du Xing only felt that after the earth was spinning, the whole man fell to the ground, and the fallen horse pressed his left leg.

Du Xing felt a sharp pain in his left leg when he heard the crisp sound of broken bones. Obviously, the weight of the horse crushed his left leg bone. However, Du Xing didn't have time to care what happened to him. He tried to pull out his left leg. Du Xing found that he couldn't do it at all. Then Du Xing looked around, At this time, the three hundred cavalry who rushed in with him also turned upside down one after another. Du Xing, full of doubt, looked at the ground not far away from him, and then showed an expression of sudden enlightenment. It turned out that there were a lot of horse tripping ropes at a low distance on the ground.

Du Xing really regretted it at this time. He realized that he really underestimated the enemy this time. The enemy would set up stumbling ropes in his army. This is obviously the arrangement of his cavalry. The people who can come up with this idea must not be ordinary people. He suffered such a big loss in the first battle, and the morale of the whole army will be lowered!
