Chapter seven hundred and fifty five.
Although many classic battles of the Han and the Huns' total wars in this era were caused by the Han army attacking the Huns, and the meat-pinching meat turned these grassland girls into dumplings, in fact, the Han army's fighting cavalry was not suitable for breaking the formation. Just like during the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion in the middle of the Western Han Dynasty, Zhou Yafu, who led the elite knights of the Northern Army, did not fight the Wu Chu rebels head-on, but let the Liang Kingdom be cut with a blue nose and swollen face, and he wrapped dumplings from King Liu Bi of Wu behind his back.
The sophisticated Xiliang Iron Cavalry a while ago, Ma Chao also did not choose to fight head-on.
Are there any assault cavalry in this era? Yes! Wang Hou’s Guanxi iron armored cavalry! Less than a thousand people! Mr. Cao’s five thousand tiger and leopard cavalry can also be considered, but Cao Ren does not have it.
Therefore, even though he was defeated, even if he was caught off guard by the assaulted Jingzhou Army and shot hundreds of his cavalry, the moment Guan Yu Army launched the assault, Cao Ren was still ecstatic, and even pulled his sword and roared, and the cavalry with a long halberd and Xuanhua Axe roared and charged forward.
The advantage of cavalry fighting infantry is really revealed. Even the fighting cavalry of Cao's army did not need to slash, and they stepped on stirrups to urge the war horses to run wildly. At the same time, they just dragged the axe forward with both hands.
Just beside Cao Ren, a Jingzhou player carrying a knife and shield was brave enough to intercept the Cao army cavalry that charged forward. But facing his roar, the guards beside Cao Ren suddenly stepped up their horse's speed with their legs clamped against their horse's waist. The Xuanhua axe dragged by him was like lightning. Poor that the player from Wuxi was also considered a famous warrior in all directions. With a click, his neck was cut by the axe blade, and his body was directly limply to the ground.
The scattered attacks out of Jingzhou archers, and the scattered space where the light infantry ran away just gave the Cao army cavalry the strongest room to play. On the plains on the bank of Jiangling, the black Cao army knights were like a huge comb. They were combed from the battlefield. If they hadn't combed it once, there must have been countless Jingzhou soldiers chopping them over to the ground like dandruff that had been combed off.
In this state, there was no way to fight. After two consecutive confrontations, the archers and light infantrymen who came out of the battle retreated in a hurry to the riverside camp.
Everyone had blood on their hands, and even Cao Ren didn't care. He let the cavalry under his command chase Guan Yu's defeated soldiers and headed straight to the river.
However, at this time, amid the fierce sound of horse hooves, the Jingzhou cavalry under Guan Yu finally went to fight. Listening to the howling of the war horses, Cao Ren couldn't help but raise his head and look over. However, in his sight, Guan Yu's cavalry did not come to him, and had no intention of responding to the light infantry he was killed. He circled out from the northern right wing, circled around the edge of the Cao cavalry, and actually rushed to his back formation to kill.
If Wang Hou was here, I wonder if he would be proud, because the frontier of the Jingzhou cavalry, he was carrying a red horse with a face of a heavy date. He was not carrying a Qinglong Yanyue Sword in his hand, but also axe gun Xuanhua Axe that he popularized for infantry and cavalry.
It was almost the same plot. The infantry and infantry of the Cao army in Xiangyang, who followed his cavalry to launch an assault, were hit hard by the Guan Yu cavalry like the divine weapon falling from the sky. The captain Zhang Tong, who was leading the charge, was still shouting and running. Unpredictably, a roar came from the side. He turned around in surprise. The captain of the Cao army only saw a big, marooned face, using a soft and soft beard, and a whistling cold axe blade.
Moreover, even if Wang Hou took away the transmission device, the Shu army could not imitate the biting gear. But just like the aerospace industry in later generations, the Americans spent tens of millions of dollars to develop a zero-gravity ballpoint pen, but Soviet astronauts kept using pencils. Zhuge Liang randomly welded an iron bar on the transmission rod, and the end connected the wheel to his Zhuge Chong Crossbow like a spinning wheel. The rotating axle could start the Zhuge Chong Crossbow like a simple machine gun.
So, Cao Ren's troops who rushed to the front of the army were completely confused!
Seeing the bamboo guns roaring one after another like toothpicks and meatballs, they stabbed their subordinates one after another, and were shocked and angry, Cao Ren finally roared in sadness.
