Chapter 372: The War Begins!
Chapter 372
"Come on! Crap! Crap!"
At the bottom of the high mountain, there is still a distance from the bottom of the slope. More than 400 infantry soldiers are in an orderly formation, each holding a tall steel tower shield, raising and lowering the shield, raising and lowering the shield, moving towards the The sound of "coaxing" challenge came out from the top of the mountain.
The four hundred infantry soldiers roared like tens of thousands of people, the huge sound waves were surging, and the entire mountain was vibrated by this masculine and domineering sound waves.
Under the effect of these waves of sound, there were even gusts of wind and waves in the sky above the opposite mountains, blowing the entire forest of the mountains.
The soldiers of the Great Fighting Army were brave and staunch. Although these four hundred infantrymen were not the elite of the Great Fighting Army, they were all selected from various places in Longxi, and were deeply influenced by the Great Fighting Army.
All of them have received serial training from the Great Fighting Army. And there are quite a few people who were directly selected by this Captain from the Great Fighting Army.
This is also the reason why the captain of the Great Fighting Army has full confidence in these four hundred infantry.
"Everyone strictly follows the formation, and anyone who dares to act at will, beheaded!"
The high-pitched voice resounded throughout the world, the captain of the Great Fighting Army rode on the horse, raised the long sword in his hand, and the cold light of the sword peak shone in the whole world.
Behind him, at a distance, densely packed cavalry lined up in a neat array, each with high fighting spirit.
This is a tactic!
Even when fighting, leave enough space for the cavalry to charge with them. From this alone, it can be seen that the captain commander of the Great Fighting Army is not an idiot.
Whether it's the huge tower shield, the infantry array pulled back three hundred meters, or the gap left for the cavalry to charge behind..., it can be seen that this captain commander is different from the previous commanders. It is much more delicate.
Tactics and strategies have also fully considered many details.
The infantry was in front, resisting the first wave of charge. After the opponent's momentum slowed down, the cavalry was dispatched to confront the opponent, smashing the team's front in one fell swoop and disrupting the opponent's cavalry.
This is a typical mixed tactics of infantry and cavalry on the modern battlefield.
Even the Great Fighting Army in Longxi would often use this method in the battle against Uzang!
A large number of heavy shields that restrain cavalry charges,
Coupled with the fact that the number of infantry and cavalry far exceeds that of the opponent, this is why the captain of the Great Fighting Army is so confident in this battle.
"Boom!"
The battle drums were beating, and when the captain of the Great Fighting Army looked up at the opposite side, waiting for the Uzbek army on the opposite mountain to appear, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes in his ears.
A marching inspector below hurried over.
"My lord, it's not good!"
"What's up?"
The captain of the Great Fighting Army frowned, a little displeased.
"My lord, I just found out that there are two hundred people missing!"
"What?!!"
The captain of the Great Fighting Army suddenly changed his face, and his eyes became sharp:
"Bastard, are you kidding me!"
It is unbelievable that two hundred people were missing during the march. Such a large quantity is no small matter!
Cold sweat broke out on the marching inspector's forehead, and he quickly told what happened. He also just discovered that so many people were missing during the march.
The military law of the Great Fighting Army is strict, this is no joke!
"Do you know who escaped?"
The captain of the Great Fighting Army said with a stern expression.
"The name has been determined!"
The marching inspector hurriedly reported the names of those missing. All these people are almost all descendants of aristocratic families in the capital.
The children of the aristocratic family are greedy for life and afraid of death. There is no doubt that these people sensed the danger and fled ahead of time.
This is typical desertion behavior!
"Bastard thing!"
The captain of the Great Fighting Army's face was extremely gloomy, his lungs were exploding with anger. This kind of behavior of escaping before the war is a death penalty. It's okay for these sons of the capital's aristocratic families to be in the capital, but it's unforgivable that they dare to escape like this under his command.
He really did not dare to kill these sons and buddies!
Just as there was a thunderous sound in my heart, there was a sudden boom, the earth shook, and a huge aura came from the top of the opposite mountain like overwhelming.
"call!"
There was a strong wind between the sky and the earth. On the back of the horse, the captain of the Great Fighting Army seemed to feel something. His heart was shocked, and he raised his head suddenly. On the high mountain on the opposite side, among the rows of dense bushes, suddenly came out The heads of war horses!
Highland barley horse!
The captain of the Great Fighting Army was shocked, and almost instantly recognized the blue and black war horses that appeared on the top of the opposite mountain. The highland barley horse is the most outstanding war horse on the Uzbek Plateau. It has a huge lung capacity, so although its limbs are short and smaller than the Central Plains horse, it is extremely capable.
Most importantly, they have strong bones and great strength!
In the past battles between Datang and Uzang, these horses almost all displayed extremely powerful combat effectiveness.
At this moment, hundreds of green and black highland barley horses maintained a neat formation, overlooking the mountain. The war horses, with sharp eyes, didn't even move, just like sculptures.
A powerful breath swept down, making people feel heavy pressure!
"You choose to retreat, and the matter of these deserters will be dealt with later!"
The expression of the captain of the Great Fighting Army changed slightly, and he quickly swung the marching inspector back. At the same time, he raised the saber in his right hand high, and issued a series of heavy and powerful orders.
"Everyone obey orders, prepare!"
The high-pitched voice resounded through the void, and the whole atmosphere suddenly became tense. All eyes were on the opposite mountain.
As for the matter of Wang Chong and others, he completely forgot about it.
Although two hundred people escaped, the impact of this number on the entire army was still negligible. Around him, seven or eight hundred soldiers still gathered.
This number is much higher than the Uzbek cavalry on the opposite side!
"rumble!"
Almost at the same time, on the opposite side of the towering mountain, more than 300 Uzbekistan cavalry with sullen faces, like demon gods stepping out of hell, slowly walked out of the forest and appeared in everyone's field of vision .
These Uzang cavalry were all in armor, with fierce eyes. Even the barley horses under them were covered with heavy armor, and they were armed to the teeth.
And on them, there was an extremely heavy aura of mountains.
This kind of breath, even after a long distance, still made the Tang cavalry at the foot of the mountain feel heavy pressure. The captain of the Great Fighting Army also changed slightly.
These guys are elite soldiers, there's no doubt about that!
"The tower shield landed, its center of gravity tilted!"
"Archers ready, start winding!"
"Cavalry is ready, listen to my orders at any time!"
...
In a short period of time, the captain of the Great Fighting Army issued a series of orders, and then there was the sound of the bow and crossbow being drawn, and more than four hundred steel tower shields, which were as tall as a man, also fell heavily to the ground.
The infantry behind the tower shield held their breaths in silence.
"It's finally time for war!"
Almost at the same time, on the top of the mountain where the breath was extremely low, the officer Wu Sizang pointed to a ferocious smile in his eyes as he looked at the formation of the Han army that was as thin as ants below the mountain.
It's finally time for the final battle.
After defeating this last branch and destroying the official station, they can leave here and return to Uzang.
This mission is basically over.
There is no doubt that the current situation is no longer comparable to that of Wu Sizang.
"Whoosh!"
Raising his right hand, Commander Uzang grabbed the scimitar on his waist, drew it out, swung it violently in the air, and raised it high above his head.
The unique shape of the Uzang machete shone with a palpitating coldness in the void.
"The whole army obeys the order, defeat this one, and we can return to the Uzang Plateau!"
"coax!"
More than 300 Uzbekistan iron cavalry looked excited, and they all let out a loud echo, and waves of ferocious murderous aura surged out of them like a tide.
"Hey hey, good!"
Sensing the murderous aura behind him, a look of extreme excitement flashed in the eyes of Commander Wu Sizang at the front, and then he swung down the scimitar held high in his hand:
"The whole army is going!"
"Buzz!"
The ground roared, and more than 300 Uzbek cavalrymen in full armor charged down the mountain from the top of the high mountain on green and black barley horses.
Their speed was not very fast at first, but slowly, their speed became faster and faster, and in the end, even the whole earth trembled under their feet.
A mountain-like heavy aura, huge and far-reaching, slowly emanated from them. And this breath is still growing exponentially.
Not only that, even the dense array began to change, one echelon, two echelons, three echelons... More than 300 people turned into more than ten echelons in the end, like undulating waves along the long The hillside washes towards the foot of the mountain.
Trapezoidal assault array!
This is the most typical, powerful and powerful charge array that was discovered by the Uzbek Tibetan cavalry over a long period of time.
With the help of the steep hillside, batches of iron cavalry were divided into countless echelon formations, like waves washing away the opponent's infantry defensive array.
No matter how powerful a fully armed infantry array is, it can stop a wave of horses charging, but it may not be able to stop the second wave, the third wave, the fourth wave... the tenth wave, the twentieth wave...
When the number of charges reaches a certain level, it will definitely be able to overwhelm the opponent's frontline camp, and then tear the entire infantry phalanx apart, completely crushing the opponent.
As long as the front line infantry camp is broken, then the chaos will spread to the entire army!
This is a secret that the Tibetans of Uzbekistan have discovered in countless wars with Middle-earth!
The echelon charge array will leave enough space for the cavalry to charge and adjust, so that even if the cavalry charge in front fails, it will not affect the subsequent cavalry charge.
Compared with the dense cavalry array charging, such an array is more continuous. The time of impact intensity is extended substantially!
Among all the cavalry in the world, only the Uzbek Tibetans can make full use of this point and maximize the power of the trapezoidal array.
"Boom!"
The ground shook, and Wu Sizang charged faster and faster, like a snowball, reaching an incredible speed.
From a distance, it looks like a blue-black thunderbolt, advancing continuously along the undulating hillside on the mountain.
That momentum was like thunder and lightning, overwhelming mountains and seas, and it was unstoppable!
At the bottom of the mountain, for the first time, the captain of the Great Fighting Army showed a serious look on his face.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have underestimated this Uzbek army!
