Beiliang Road built two new post roads in Liuzhou, both horizontal and horizontal, leading to Liangling and two states, which are far less meticulous than the three states in Guanzhou. This is also a helpless move. Liuzhou, with a vast territory, only three military towns are used as a support, but borders most of Gusai Prefecture, with strong military forces in Beimang. Therefore, building vertical post roads in Liuzhou can only facilitate the long journey of the grassland cavalry to drive south. This is a measure to destroy the border defense. If you take a step back, even if the young vassal king was inexplicably lost his mind and overestimated his ability, he will build a post road in Liuzhou. I believe that Qingcangcheng Governor's Mansion, Huaiyang Pass Protectorate and Qingliang Mountain will rebel at the same time. The plain area on the right side of Laoye Mountain is the most suitable terrain for cavalry outside the city of Qingcangcheng.

The location chosen for the third interception battle after the two great victory in the Gu Jianghuai River was a yellow sand flat land more than 200 miles north of Laoyu Mountain. There was a huge corridor running north and south between the plain terrain of Laoyu Mountain, which generally showed the slim waist of a woman. If the grassland cavalry advanced from north to south, this place cannot be regarded as the only way to the battlefield of Laoyu Mountain, but it can be shortened by more than 60 miles compared to detours, and this corridor is not narrow and steep.

It is definitely not a small path, and it is impossible to set up a raid on both sides. On the contrary, the mountains on both sides of the corridor are gentle, and the entire corridor is always roughly narrow, all about one and a half miles away. The large cavalry gallops without any obstacles. The so-called corridor is shaped like a woman's slim waist, but compared to the entire Liuzhou territory, so from the Liugui cavalry in the first Liangmang battle to the three interception battles between Kou Jianghuai in the second battle, neither side was interested in this place, which was once named "grasshopper legs" by refugees.

However, when everyone could almost see the north entrance of the corridor, a group of Liuzhou soldiers were already in the middle of the corridor, and they were already waiting for a long time!

When Malanzi hurriedly reported the military information, several Beimang generals of the 50,000 cavalry were in an embarrassing dilemma. All Liuzhou infantry took the initiative to defend the corridor with a population of about 14,000. The main force was the monk soldiers of Lantu Mountain in the Western Regions, and there were two or three thousand local soldiers of Liuzhou. The bad news was that this corridor was used as a battlefield, and the cavalry could not sway its formation. The good news was that the infantry that was ready to form a formation did not carry any large horse-resisting equipment. Once the cavalry, which had an absolute advantage in the army, broke into the stomp formation and forced it to retreat in a hurry. Not to mention 17,800 infantry, even if the force doubled, it would not be enough for the cavalry to slash and kill.

The Northern Mang Southern Dynasties cavalry has no intention of underestimating the combat power of the Northern Liang cavalry, or the strength of the Youzhou infantry under Yan Wenluan, for twenty years, and they have no intention of underestimating the border. But if it is to say that it is not a blind conceit, but the great confidence accumulated by the grassland cavalry for four hundred years since the end of Dafeng, relying on countless times to hit the border to surround the Central Plains. In addition, the reason why several Southern Dynasties cavalry captains felt embarrassed was that they had to participate on time from leaving the base and crossing the border to entering the battlefield of Laoyu Mountain, whether it was the Beiting tent, the Xijing temple that was close to the point, or the commander Huang Songpu, who was in full swing in the south, were strictly ordered to participate on time.

The battle was finalized at a critical moment and completely eliminated all the main field forces in Liuzhou. Therefore, the 50,000 cavalry must not miss the slightest opportunity! The problems before these military generals with military power in the Southern Dynasties are not only whether to take a detour, because the monk soldiers who are located in the middle of the corridor can also retreat south quickly. Perhaps the battlefield is changed, and the Beimang cavalry can break the formation faster, but the consumption of the extra distance of the fast horse running for 60 miles is definitely not the price that these generals of the southern Dynasties can bear. Moreover, the military merits of more than 10,000 Western Region monk soldiers, especially the leading generals, are very likely to be able to exchange for the military merits of Xie Xiqi, who is awarded a title for the title of marquis, is so tempting!

Do you want to fight?

Of course!

In public and private, the cavalry of the Northern Mang and Southern Dynasties felt that they wanted to fight in this corridor to make a lot of military achievements. The eighteen Xianbei jade belts recently given to the Wanyan family by His Majesty the Emperor is the best example!

With great achievements ahead, the 50,000 cavalry, whose physical strength and mental energy are at the peak, cannot break through the formation of more than 10,000 infantry troops?

On the other side of the corridor step formation, Xie Xiqiu, wearing an iron armor, waist and sword, sat on the horse's back, raising his eyes to look at the north.

The strong wind blew on my face, and it seemed that I could already smell blood.

This Liuzhou deputy general, known as one of the two kings of Great Chu, had a firm look and a calm face.

Cao Changqing once privately commented on the famous military generals and ministers of the Western Chu Empress Jiang Si, most of whom were mediocre. However, when talking about Xie Xiqian, a proud disciple, he made no choice but to speak out for the first time, especially the eight characters "using troops on the battlefield, turning stones into gold" are the most important, but in the end, there is another comment that seems to be just off-topic: Xie Xiqian is tenacious and is especially superior to the enemy of Jianghuai.

Xie Xici slowly closed his eyes. The young emperor of Liyang wanted to attract young people who entered Tai'an City. He is now a descendant of the Great Chu country, but he is a general of the Northern Liang Dynasty.

The Great Chu was invincible in the Spring and Autumn Period for two hundred years, and there were three who broke the enemy's reliance, including strong armor, strong bow, long spear and large halberd, and military order system. When the Jiangshi of the Great Chu was at its peak, the two countries, Liyang, Dongyue, which had defeated the north of the border, had no temper, just like a strong man punching a child. Even though the strength of the Great Chu army declined from prosperity, Liyang, located in a corner of the northern part of the nine countries in the Spring and Autumn Period, began to pay attention to cultivating cavalry, but before the entire Central Plains was destroyed in the battle of Jinghe, the entire Central Plains was still

However, I firmly believe that to form a certain scale of Liyang cavalry combat power, it will definitely not take any advantage against this heavy armor infantry that is known as the most powerful in history. However, in the battle of Jinghe, which has three major battles, it turns out that as long as there are not enough heavy armor infantry to support the cavalry, no matter how many of them are, they can only wait for death and may not lose, but they will never win a big victory. The cavalry that is far inferior to the western wall is far higher than that of the western wall.

The classic battle has always been underestimated or despised by the military strategists of Liyang. In the first three battles, the two sides actually died in battle, only 30,000. In the second, the Xu family army, which had won a great victory in cavalry and infantry, chose to kill more than 80,000 surrendered soldiers in order to prevent mistakes in the subsequent key battles. In addition, the old emperor of Liyang, Zhao Li, sent a meritorious veteran to participate in the coordinated battle with two Zhao clan members, so Zhao Dun ascended the throne.

It is not convenient to exaggerate the emperor as the emperor's taboo. However, the Battle of Scene River had a great impact on the Xu family on the victorious side. When Xu Xiao was visiting the battlefield with his subordinates, he squatted down and stared at the excellent iron armor of a Great Chu halberd. He slashed with a long sword and stabbed the spear, but it was still basically intact. He sighed, "There is a dead man. If I had such iron armor, how many people could die? We can't be so poor anymore."

Since then, no matter how fierce the battle of the death and tough battle, the Xu family, who only had military achievements and no money, began to secretly detain equipment, gold and silver whenever they broke the battle, and countless censors in Liyang criticized it, which was not unfair. Of course, Xu Xiao never denied it. Especially at the end of the Western Barrier Battle, Xu Xiao made a rebellious move. It was this matter that used most of the incense between the Xu and Zhao families. Xu Xiao issued a secret order to Xu Pu, his two adopted sons Chen Zhibao and Yuan Zuozong. The three of them joined forces to successfully gather 10,000 troops and horses to compare with Liyang's established people.

He chose earlier and took the lead in destroying the capital of Xichu overnight. After that, he even collected all treasures that could be moved away in boxes. Xu Xiao's famous saying, "Shit is good but not delicious." After that plunder, the Liyang military sent an envoy to lead troops to question the crime. Xu Crooked, and said straight to the point, "The things have already reached my stomach. If you want them, you can only shit for you. Do you want to eat them?" It is said that the old emperor Zhao Li was so angry that he was so angry that he heard the report. In the end, Xu Xiao just symbolically spit out some spoils for the imperial army, and left it alone.

After being appointed as the king and became a vassal in the northwest border, Xu Xiao's obsession with the benefits of equipment became stronger. It was better to say that the Northern Liang iron cavalry was superior to the world, but rather to the world.

In the past twenty years, private iron goods were sold to Beimang Grassland, and the long border line of Yang was constantly banned. The two Liao border troops who enjoyed the tilt of taxes in half of the country were constantly making small moves, which was extremely difficult to stop. It was not until Chen Zhibao briefly served as the Minister of War and Gu Jiantang left the capital to take charge of the north side. The two military bosses with the most powerful military power cooperated closely in this matter, and this was successful. Even the Beiliang border army with strict military rules still had several real power lieutenants beheaded on the spot, which was implicated. From the general portal inside the pass to the real power general outside the pass, then to the pass commander finally to the beacon towers of all sizes, it was often a matter of one incident that would have to fall nearly a hundred heads.

The grassland cavalry has never lacked war horses and armor. Beimang has changed a lot after the old woman ascended the throne. With the east wind of Hong Jia running north, the whole country has been like this, from iron smelting skills to military distribution. However, some deeply rooted things in the nomadic peoples are still difficult to change even if they have been influenced by the twenty years. Just like the Qiang cavalry that was destroyed in the northwest of Liuzhou, the Qiang cavalry that was famous in the Southern Dynasty, and the Rouran Iron Cavalry that Hong Jingyan took over, they were called "the most important thing in the border cavalry." With the foresight of the old woman and the attention of the temple in the Southern Dynasty, how could it not even have the foundation and courage to equip ten thousand Qiang cavalry with excellent equipment? However, the Qiang cavalry that always maintained the light cavalry route of leather armor, fast horses, short swords and short spears, and cannot be struck by thunder. This cannot be simply regarded as the gateway of the Beimang cavalry, but it is more because of the times.

The sound of the horse hooves of the Beimang cavalry became heavier and heavier, coupled with the natural echo of the corridor, and the howling sound of Beimang's claim to be sure to win was like thunder storm on the ground, with an extremely majestic momentum.

Xie Xici suddenly opened his eyes, pulled out the scorch from his waist, and shouted angrily: "Get together! Resist the horse!"

This time, he used the invasion formation to block the 50,000 Beimang cavalry. In addition to the 5,000 hard bows and crossbows that were qualified to be allocated by the governor of Liuzhou, Xie Xiqi also asked for eight hundred horse spears and one thousand Mo swords from the border army of Liangzhou!

Modao emerged in the Spring and Autumn Period and weighed more than 50 kilograms, made of fine iron. Non-ranked strong soldiers were not allowed to hold them. At that time, there were more than 70,000 soldiers and horses on the border of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Modao was only more than 2,000 soldiers and horses. He was very strong in combat. He was once praised by the whole country of Southern Tang as the king of white blades. He believed that if 10,000 Modao could gather to form a formation to guard the national gate, he could stop 10,000 cavalry in the south. After Gu Dazu, the first general of the old Southern Tang Dynasty, entered Northern Liang, followed the then Prince Xu Fengnian of Northern Liang, in addition to being the deputy commander of the infantry, with the strong support of the young vassal kings, he begged to

Gu Dazu helped the Mo family Juzi to create a new style of Mo sword to be rated to the Beiliang border army in the future. Compared with the 50-pound Mo swords of the Southern Tang Jianzhang in history, the men of Beiliang are stronger and have greater strength. This well-deserved slashing - the saber, which was called "Sixty Knife" by the Mo family Juzi Song Changsui. Unfortunately, it was built since the first Liangmang battle before it began, and it has only tried its best to cast more than a thousand pieces. Moreover, it is difficult to have a place to use it on the battlefield outside Liangzhou Pass. Then Xie Xiqiu asked for it all.

In addition, there is a thousand long spears. These stair spears are more expensive and rare than the Modao, which is shocking. Unless a family of military families cannot use a horse spear. This is an iron rule that the horse spear has existed since its birth. First, no matter whether the horse spear is a long or extremely difficult to use, it will only add to the use of ordinary cavalry. Second, it takes a long time and is so exquisite that it is incredible. It is said that one spear is built for at least three years. It has always been the first favorite that the cavalry generals in the Central Plains have been unable to find. It is even more difficult to find than a good horse worth a thousand gold.

The eight hundred stair spear was ordered by the young vassal king himself, almost equivalent to a number gathered after taking out all the Xu family's family. If it weren't for the Northern Liang army's laws, the cavalry generals were not allowed to use spears with their own status, and Xu Xiao, who was used to hard life and was afraid of poverty, intends to collect long spears in the late stage of the Spring and Autumn War, in the Hyogo people, otherwise it would be a delusion.

In the corridor, this Liuzhou infantry army composed of monks from Mount Lanta was strongly resisting the horse.

At the beginning is the spear facing outward, and the cold light is like snow!

Three hundred people were in a horizontal lineup, and three rows were arranged.

The first team knelt with a spear, raised the long spear forward in a diagonal manner. The second team pointed the long spear in front, and the third team stood the spear on the shoulders of the soldiers in front, and tilted forward.

In front of the three rows of spear tips, there were actually two rows of strong monk soldiers with hands and shoulders pressing against the huge shield.

After the horse spear resisted the horse, there were 200 people in each row of tall monk soldiers, holding 800 horse-killing swords.

The war was about to come, and eight hundred people sat on the ground to rest. Even the Beimang Cavalry sounded the charge horn. Before receiving the order from the chief general, eight hundred Mo Dao's hand was not allowed to stand up with the knife, and must accumulate physical strength to the greatest extent.

Once the monks and soldiers with a long spear were killed, they would have to line the walls of monks and soldiers forward.

Gu Dazu once said boldly that before the Modao of Nan Tang, the people and horses were broken!

After that, there were two thousand Liuzhou border troops accompanying the monks, plus three thousand monks from Mount Lanta, equipped with five thousand hard bows and crossbows.

In the infringement formation, the real first blocking the cavalry's charge against the enemy cavalry was actually these five thousand crossbowmen with the formation back.

After Xie Xici ordered the horse to resist the formation, he did not continue to stop at the end of the stairs formation.

Instead, he got off the horse and walked to the crossbowman, took off the shield hanging on the side of the saddle, and then stood in front of the stair formation formed by the remaining monks and soldiers.

The Beimang Cavalry, which was whistling like thunder, and the Liuzhou staircase formation that was silent as mountains.

It is in this unknown corridor that divides life and death.

In later historical books, whether they are heavy ink or understatement, without exception, they will make the final conclusion of this battle with "six battles and six delinquency".

The tragic war is so fierce that it is beyond words!
