Chapter 1036: East becomes West (29)

Guli rode his horse and slowly stepped onto a beam. At the end of her vision, a black line was slowly coming towards her. Both sides chose to fight to the decisive battle today. This small place called the Naiman Banner is destined to be stained with blood today.

Seeing the Qin cavalry who were getting closer and clearer in their vision, Gu Li's face turned pale slightly, and even Toppler next to her could hear her teeth choking.

"It's Li Xin's iron armored cavalry!" Gu Li said word by word. Of course she would not forget this army. Ying Ying first used light cavalry to block the escaped troops of the Xiongnu royal court, and then used the iron armored cavalry to destroy the remaining troops of the royal court. The Huns' sabers could not cut through the opponent's iron armor at all. Such monsters with even horses were not afraid of arrows or swords. The only thing that had lethality to them was heavy objects, but the escaped Xiongnu royal court could not organize a considerable number of heavy weapons troops. In order to escape faster, the burdens had long been discarded.

"Guli, how to deal with these monsters?" Topler's face changed drastically.

"These iron guys are not afraid. They can only sprint for a hundred meters at most and they will lose strength, so they can only move forward slowly. Only when the opponent is surrounded can they play a role." Guli said lightly. "Topler, after passing the order, all our cavalry divided into two strands, one left and one right, to bypass these heavy cavalry at speed. Organize all our men who use heavy weapons, such as chain hammers, iron vertebrae, meteor hammers, etc."

"Hundreds of people should be found," Topler said.

"Okay, organize them, run around these cavalry and attack them with these heavy weapons. They are not flexible. Just throw the things in their hands, and they will be enough to knock them down."

"clear!"

"The light cavalry must have speed and cannot get close to these iron cavalry. They have the ability to make a sprint. Once they are hit by them, they will either die or be injured. The light cavalry avoids their armored troops and fights the Qin army's light cavalry! Once they find that the iron armored heavy cavalry is approaching, they will immediately leave the battle and find an opportunity to fight again!"

"Yes!" Topler replied loudly.

Gu Li stared at the Qin army ahead, but saw that Toppler had not left, and couldn't help asking: "Topler, what are you hesitating about? The military situation is like fire. It's going to be deadly to delay a little time."

Topler hesitated for a moment and said, "Guli, who are you? Are you or the Guli I know?"

Gu Li was stunned for a moment, gently stroked the helmet on her head with a crack, and whispered: "Topler, you don't need to know who I was before. You only need to know that I am He Dayou's woman now, and that's his woman in the future, that's enough."

Topler smiled, "Okay, then, I'll be relieved." He turned around and slapped the horse's butt, left the ridge like a flying, and went to the back to pass the order. Topler had already vaguely guessed Guli's identity, because yesterday, he was also in the Gaoyuan tent, but he was He Dayou's friend for many years, so he would rather believe that Guli in front of him was just Guli.

Li Xin did invest a lot of money this time. He only had a thousand iron armored cavalry. There was no use in too many such teams. The effect it could play was really limited and could only be used in some specific situations. However, as long as they could fight against the enemy, victory would always stand on their side.

Li Xin trusts his cavalry to deal with these herdsmen who have no combat qualities. He will easily use the changes in formation to surround these herdsmen, and then he can sprint back and forth, and easily kill these guys running around the ground.

Ying Ying did that back then, and in the end, the Xiongnu royal court was killed without leaving any left. Li Xin rode on the horse and moved towards Jishi City. Yan Haibo should have known that he was approaching him, but he did not retreat. Although he was huddling forward, he was still moving forward. This made Li Xin a little curious. Could it be that this young general, who was only 25 years old, really wanted to fight him?

But in the Neiman Banner, the battle has begun.

Guli rode a red horse, waving the scimitar in her hand, and took her cavalry into a big circle, accurately cutting in between the gap between the armored cavalry and the Qin army light cavalry. At the moment of cutting in, some men with heavy weapons waving their hands broke out from the team, and the iron vertebrae, iron hammer, and meteor hammer in her hands flew towards those monsters with iron armor all over their bodies.

The armored cavalry advanced slowly and became even slower. They raised one hand and tied a large shield to their hands. With the rumbling sound, the shield was concave inward. For a moment, there were countless arms that were broken, but few people were caught. Obviously, these armored heavy cavalry had their own way of dealing with heavy weapons. For them, even if they abandoned one arm, the impact of their own was enough to kill the enemy.

A dull horn sounded from the iron armored cavalry team. With the heavy roars, the iron armored cavalry raised their hands. Each of them held an iron javelin about three feet long, bowed their bodies, swung their arms back, and threw them forward suddenly. Javelins flew forward like arrows. The herdsmen who had just thrown the heavy weapons in their hands had not had time to get away. The javelins had arrived. The javelins were surprisingly powerful. When one shot was next to each other, they often penetrated the whole body, and no matter how people were, they were like this. A round of javelins was thrown, and only twenty or thirty people escaped by chance.

Gu Li just glanced back and turned her head again. In front of her, a Qin cavalry was already coming towards her. Gu Li raised her left hand and held the crossbow that He Dayou gave her before leaving.

With a breaking sound, a distance of more than ten steps, the crossbow passed through the opponent's leather armor and plunged into the opponent's chest. The cavalry roared and fell down his horse. He had lost his life without even seeing the enemy's appearance.

The sound of collapse sounded twice, and the two cavalry fell off the horse. Almost at the same time, countless cavalry crossbows shot out the crossbow arrows in their hands, but the rain was shocked and angry. He had fought with these herdsmen for more than ten days, and had dozens or hundreds of big and small battles. He had never seen these herdsmen have something like a regular Han army that only had, but they actually took it out during the battle. This made him a little surprised. In just a moment, hundreds of cavalry had fallen off the horse by the Qin army.

After three crossbow arrows were shot, the two sides had already collided. The correct reaction at this time should be to throw away the crossbow in their hands. Regular cavalry usually do this, but these herdsmen cherished the hard-earned weapon in their hands and were busy inserting the crossbow in their hands at their waists. When the cavalry fought, there was a gap between life and death. There was such a distraction from the herdsmen. The Qin army, who was lying on the horse, kept getting up, and the spear and sabre in their hands were already swung over. Amid the screams, the herdsmen were all distracted.

Gu Li knew what to do, but like those herdsmen, she inserted the crossbow into her waist, because the crossbow belonged to her husband, with his husband's name engraved on it. In this short moment, a long spear was stabbed towards him. Gu Li screamed, and her whole person fell down in reverse, almost touching her back on the horse's back. It seemed that the scream scared the cavalry on the opposite side. Perhaps the other party heard from this scream that the person wrapped in leather armor on the opposite side was actually a woman. He stabbed him with a shot and failed. The Qin cavalry on the opposite side was inhabited.

Ran was stunned for a moment, and this shock made Gu Li, who was in crisis, find an opportunity. The hand that had been stuck on the crossbow, quickly raised it up and grabbed the opponent's spear. The scimitar in her hand was cut down with the spear. The two horses intertwined. Qin Jun screamed, and eight fingers holding the spear were cut off. Gu Li did not turn around. With his feelings, he stabbed the spear behind him as he felt the hindrance. She exerted force and the spear was tilted to one side. Gu Li let go, and a heavy sound of falling horse came from behind.

Gu Li reached out to wipe the cold sweat on her forehead, feeling cold. At that moment, she was really a stalemate in life and death. If the opponent was not stunned for a moment, she would die. After touching the crossbow on her waist, Gu Li smiled. If she did it again, she would still choose this way, that was her cripple husband's crossbow.

The attack on the iron armored soldiers continued. The herdsmen holding heavy weapons rushed forward one after another, running around the iron armored heavy cavalry, running this palace to throw out the heavy weapons in their hands. With previous experience in attacks, the herdsmen later became faster, but when it comes to the results of the battle, they were still unsatisfactory. The iron armored soldiers moved forward slowly, sometimes even stopped and turned slowly, but every time they threw the javelin, they could cause great damage to the herdsmen, and a javelin was easy to avoid, but when you face dozens of javelins coming towards you, there was no other way to go except to meet death.

"Give up attacking the armored soldiers and bypass them. They will stop for a long time." Guli said loudly to Topler beside her during the fight: "Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet, let them give up."

But Yu's face turned pale. It was obvious that this time the herdsmen in front of him received the logistic support from Jishi City, which enabled them to obtain the crossbows that only regular troops would be equipped. The wealth of the Han army made Danyu very jealous. The Qin army did not develop the crossbows, but because they were too exquisite and expensive, they had no money to provide large-scale equipment. However, the Han State could give them to these herdsmen.
