The rising sun has not yet risen, but the first ray of dawn has appeared, and the sky in the east has a trace of white white.

On the south bank of the Yellow River, there were swaying torches everywhere, and the fire ignited by the fierce tinder tanks projected by the Hebei Army in Jiangxinzhou on the south bank. Even the bodies of many Wei soldiers were splashed with tinder oil, turning into piles of fire.

The vanguard of the Wei army was a cavalry with a population of up to 10,000 people, which was the elite troops equipped by Li Mi at a high cost. In front of them, the coalition forces of Chen and Zheng had already seized the beach on the south bank and set up a trapezoidal diagonal formation in a hurry.

However, it is obvious that the opponent was in panic and had only been able to transfer about 30,000 infantry formations with the main force of the Jianghuai Army to resist. As long as the cavalry of the Wei army could break through the infantry formation of the Jianghuai Army, the infantry army behind could take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill them directly and drove these Jianghuai Army into the river.

"Rise the spear!" In front of the infantry formations of the Jianghuai Army, officers rode back and forth on horseback and shouted loudly.

The Wei army roared: "Kill!" The horse's hooves were thundering, and the neat queues quickly pressed towards the Jianghuai Army like a black wall!

Facing the countless long spears that the Jianghuai Army suddenly erected, the Wei cavalry in the charge were not much panic and fearful. In their opinion, this long spear infantry formation was just an enhanced version of the long spear formation and a spear formation.

At first, most of the Wei army were from peasant soldiers. In the early days, the peasant soldiers lacked equipment, without a large number of war horses, sharp crossbows, and even the minimum longbow could not produce a large amount of equipment. Similarly, strong armor was short of, and sometimes even a horizontal knife could not be used for one piece of equipment.

But the rebel army lacks the most people, so the peasant army is the best and most commonly used. It is to cut wood into soldiers and equip a large number of bamboo spears, bamboo spears, wooden spears, and wooden spears. Put an iron spear tip on the long wood and bamboo stems. Even if it is a weapon, sometimes, sharpening one end directly is a weapon.

During the battle, there was still a huge number of people. They lined up into dense spear formations and spear formations, and used human sea tactics to directly defeat the official army. This was a trick that all the rebels used well. At present, these Wei soldiers transformed, rode tall war horses, put on exquisite bright light armor, held sharp spears, cross-cut swords, and carried long bows and hard crossbows. At first, they saw that the Jianghuai army opposite had actually formed a spear formation.

This situation does not arouse their defense except to remind them of their past times. If it were the past, they might not be able to use this spear array, but now they have excellent equipment.

"Shoot the arrow!" The cavalry generals charging forward made a quick judgment.

This is the experience I earned from the past with blood and life. In the past, when they faced the official army with long spears, they were most afraid of bows and arrows. Now it is finally their turn to be the hunters who drive their prey. Of course, they will not forget this best attack method.

Ten thousand arrows were fired at once, and the charging Wei cavalry used their cavalry bows to shoot densely on the dense Jianghuai infantry formation. The arrows were like locusts and densely as rain.

"Raising the shield!"

The shields on one side after another in the Jianghuai infantry formation were lifted by the Jianghuai army. The infantry formation was very dense, and each of the Wang infantrymen had a shield of two feet in diameter. Facing the arrows that were overwhelming, the well-trained infantrymen hung around their necks and put the round shield on their left hand to their heads. The shields on one side not only protected themselves, but also covered their comrades next to them.

The infantry phalanx instantly showed the hard turtle shell under the Wei army's bow and arrow.

The arrows were like rain, but when facing such a strong shield array, they could only make waves of jingling sounds. Occasionally, there were a few arrows that passed through the gap between the shields. The damage they could cause was very limited in front of the double-layer chain mail of the Jianghuai Army. Except for a few who were very lucky, the ten thousand arrows were fired at once, as if they were thrown into the Yellow River, with only a small ripples, and then they quickly disappeared.

Li Mi and others who were watching the battle on Dongguanling almost glared away their eyes. Such a dense rain of arrows faced such a dense infantry phalanx. Generally speaking, the lethality was very huge. But now, the Jianghuai Army was as good as anyone, and easily defended against this killer move.

"How come the Jianghuai Army has so many shields, and why are the armor of the Jianghuai Army so strong? Faced with such a dense rain of arrows, they only resisted with slight damage?" Li Mi was puzzled, very puzzled. He and Wang Shichong fought in Henan for so long, and had never seen Wang Shichong use such a square formation.

As a Jiangnan native, Shen Luoyan frowned and said, "This army must be Wang Shichong's platoon army. When Wang Shichong was spreading across the Yangtze River and Huai River and wiped out countless rebels, he relied on this elite army. However, the most famous Jianghuai army in the past was the Wang family's serial horses, and this platoon army was not the most famous. Because Wang Shichong used to fight the Jianghuai rebel army with little combat power, the real strength of the serial cavalry and the platoon army under Wang Shichong was different. Although Yang Guang later called the Jianghuai army with Sui Xiaoguo Army, Zhang Xutuo Eight Wind Camp, Luo Yi Youzhou Iron Cavalry, and Chen Kefu's Liaodong Pojun Camp, but most people still did not take the Jianghuai army to heart, after all, they had only fought with the peasant army before."

Li Mi sighed, "Wang Shichong is indeed a hero. He holds such a powerful soldier in his hand, but it makes people not pay attention to him. This is the real biting dog that doesn't bark. Fortunately, Wang Shichong is dead, otherwise, he would be a strong enemy."

Fang Xuanzao said worriedly, "The Jianghuai infantry is like a turtle. Now these tens of thousands of turtles form a large turtle formation. How do we break him? If Chen thief's Hebei soldiers get on the shore, I'm afraid it will be unfavorable for us."

Li Mi laughed loudly, "No matter how powerful the Jianghuai soldiers are, they are just a group of infantry wearing turtle shells. Don't forget that we charge in front of us by 10,000 elite cavalry. We use infantry against cavalry, and there are no morgues or deer antler fences and other defensive objects. On such an open river beach plain, there is still the Yellow River behind them. How can you block our cavalry? Cavalry and infantry are born with mutual restraint. In this battle, victory will definitely belong to us."

The charge of the cavalry had reached a hundred steps away from the infantry formation, and the officers shouted, "Swap the spear!"

With a "brush", the Wei cavalry who was running rapidly unloaded their bows and arrows and raised their spears. Their quick and neat movements showed that the Wei cavalry was worthy of being the first elite unit carefully built by Li Mi. The perfect movements of such a rapid run made the Jianghuai army look solemn.

The horse's speed did not decrease at all, and the cavalry began to lower their bodies, and their spears were neatly half a foot above the horse's body.

A huge roar like thunder: "Run!"

The other side was yelling at the same time: "Kill!"

The bloody battle has begun!

With the high-speed Mercedes-Benz and the huge impact, the Wei cavalry faced the Jianghuai infantry and used the most commonly used strategies to charge directly.

The cavalry of the Wei army was not heavy cavalry, but this cavalry carefully built by Li Mi was also fully equipped. Each cavalry was equipped with Mingguang armor and war horses were also equipped with leather armor. This was a direct ace force piled up with countless gold and silver.

The intention of the commander of the cavalry was very simple. Although the long spear in the hands of the infantry of the Jianghuai Army seemed amazing, they did not have enough depth. This hastily formed large formation was like a trapezoid, or a stubborn stone, nailed to the shore. Although the stone was strong, there were countless thorns outside. However, as long as the impact force of the cavalry broke through the shell on the surface, the sharp thorns outside and hollow trapezoid square formation of the Jianghuai Army would be divided into two.

Although the turtle's shell is hard, if it turns over, it will be full of flaws.

"prick!"

As the officers roared, the soldiers in the front row of Jianghuai straits held spears with both hands and poked the super long spears that reached seven meters forward. Faced with such high-speed cavalry, they did not have to poke them hard. As long as they put the spear down, one cavalry after another would naturally hit the spears themselves.

The stairs are not long spears, nor are they spears. Although the stairs do not use composite spears like horse spears, the stairs' guns are still extremely strong. The long spears ruthlessly stabbed the cavalry that rushed towards them. The remaining joints on the head of the spear prevented the long spear from stabbing too deep, making it easier for the infantry to collect the spears.

The war horses neighed, and one cavalry after another was stabbed by the dense row of spears and fell off the horse. Some knights drove their horses up and wanted to leap across the line of death, but the long spear of the second row of the Jianghuai Army had already stabbed it again, and immediately stabbed the knights and the people and the horses into hornet's nests.

In an instant, hundreds of Wei soldiers rolled to the ground, and they fell forever ten feet away from the Jianghuai infantry formation and fell outside the line of death. At the same time, only a very small number of Jianghuai infantry died from the cavalry's flying axes, spears, bows and arrows. A few infantry were injured by the impact of the infantry spears, but the soldiers next to them quickly replenished their positions, and the formation was still solid and complete.

The subsequent cavalry were not at all chaotic and fearless, and the impact was continuous, and they were all in an instant. However, the cavalry of the Ren Wei army was attacked like a tide, like a mountain collapse, or like a tsunami. However, facing the Jianghuai infantry formation that was nailed to the south bank like a nail, it was only slapped on the rock like a storm, unable to shake it at all.

The Wei cavalry and the Wei army infantry that rushed forward continuously in front of this huge rock composed of more than 30,000 Jianghuai troops. Finally, they surrounded the Jianghuai army from three sides. From a distance, the Jianghuai infantry formation had been submerged in the sea of ​​people of the Wei army.

But when you look closely, the Jianghuai infantry phalanx stubbornly blocked the Wei army's attack. In front of the large trapezoidal diagonal array, the spears constantly stabbed out, like the messenger of the underworld, constantly harvesting the lives of the Wei army soldiers.

The waves slammed the shore, but only the bright red blood of countless Wei soldiers was splashed!
