Chapter 347 – A Guangling River

The exit of the eastern end of the Miyun mountain pass, violently tightened, slender as a woman’s waist, Xie Xijian, by virtue of such geographical advantage, blocked the wave after wave of frantic attack of the North Mang cavalry here.

The five hundred elite cavalry specifically drawn from the Dragon Elephant Army has been completely wiped out, plus more than 1,200 species of Tan Department of the dead cavalry rushed out of the pass, both sides of the corpses, along with the horses and fell on the exit, forming a half a zhang high natural wall, human and horse corpses stacked on top of each other, the blood flow, slippery and hideous.

This was probably the most alternative horse refusal formation in the history of war, regardless of victory or defeat, this battle would definitely be recorded in the history books.

The left and right flanks of the Fengxiang Linyao two towns cavalry originally suffered slightly less casualties, but as the wall of corpses continued to build up, a steady stream of Northern Mang vanguard cavalry had to give up their frontal breakthroughs, turning to the left and right in an attempt to chisel their way out of the formation for the back of the main army.

If Xie Xijian received all the crossbows and bows of Cao Wei’s 10,000 cavalry, and the auxiliary horses were loaded with many arrows, enough to shoot intensively at the North Mang cavalry that crashed out of the Miyun Pass, I’m afraid that it would have already been opened by the brazen seed Tan’s elites, and once the North Mang cavalry spread out their complete front line outside the pass, allowing the seed’s elite cavalry to break through the line as arrows, I believe that it would be an absolute slaughter without a doubt at that time.

Xie Xijian’s cavalry source is mixed, the overall combat power in Liuzhou is not outstanding, can not be compared with the Liangzhou border rider CaoWei Department cavalry, plus the only call the hundred battle veteran of the 500 riders of the Dragon Elephant Army, but also take the lead in the battle of the whole, which makes Xie Xijian is always in the life of a line in the danger of the situation, really is a step back can not be, the arc of the fan-shaped defense position, as long as any one place there is a loophole, and then be the North Mang riding army As long as there is a loophole in any one place, and then the North Mang cavalry seizes the opportunity, there will be a defeat, which has nothing to do with whether or not the Liuzhou youth and the two towns’ cavalry dares to die generously, on the battlefield, in fact, both sides of the enemy are often fighting for a breath of air, and when the air fails, it dies.

Fortunately, Xie Xijian in this critical moment to play out the outstanding talent of the West Chu Bijie, like a unique eye of the sewing maker, diligently sewing leaks and fill in the gaps, time and time again just the right deployment of troops and generals, if you say that the snail shell to do do Taoist field is a pejorative statement, then Xie Xijian hard to this statement into a positive sense of the rotten into the miraculous, 1,000 generally outstanding brawn of the flow of the people of the young people have abandoned their horses to carry a spear, plus temporary transfer The six hundred riders, each holding a light crossbow and horse bow, these one thousand six hundred people in Xie Xijian’s dispatch, has seven times blocked the gap of the faltering position, which prevented the North Mang cavalry to flood the dike of the momentum of the surge out, during this period, almost every dangerous situation can be said to be the Xie Xijian and North Mang’s main general seed sandalwood, who many times intentionally hide the true strength of the guards and riders, intermingled with the ordinary Mang cavalry, and then a strong attack, and then a strong attack, and then a strong attack. The latter deliberately concealed the true strength of his personal guards and cavalry many times, mixed in with the ordinary Mang cavalry, and then crashed into the formation with a burst of energy.

Xie Xijian really under the banner of this is not familiar with the cavalry, to do the most respected by the military four words, or a realm, “like an arm”, which not only needs Xie Xijian on the entire battlefield all the details are well-informed, the number of light crossbow arrows remaining on their own side, mounted bows and rifle bows shooting on the brawn of the pawns of the extent of the loss of brawn, the thickness of the cavalry formations on the two wings, and so on. The thickness of the formation and so on, but also need to be on the enemy cavalry posture as if it were a fire, but also need to be on their own forces can not be the slightest error rotation, neither weakening the entire defensive position, but also to maintain enough for a protracted battle of the necessary physical strength.

Xie Xijian’s command is impeccable, this solid as a rock situation, the most intuitive cost is the five ordering cavalry everyone hoarse, Xie Xijian although not personally on the battlefield, but the same cracked lips, pale.

But Xie Xijian’s eyes are always clear and bright, glittering.

This young general, who had entered the northwestern border not even half a year ago, had already won the respect of all the Northern Liang cavalry under his command.

Some people, born for the sands, were destined to leave a name in that bloodshed history that future generations could not bypass in any way.

Spring and Autumn Soldier Ye Bai Kui once was, White Soldier Saint Chen Zhi Bao always was, and Xie Xijian will also be.

As a matter of fact, the main general of the North Mang cavalry, Mr. Seed Tan, who had stopped his horse under the mountain wall inside the Miyun Pass, after witnessing the bloody fight in which both sides died very quickly, although he hated to cut off the head of the young North Liang general with his own hands, deep down in his heart he could not help but admire his use of military force. As the North Mang species of the family to support the new generation of military pillar, General seed Shentong’s eldest son, seed sandalwood and as a martial arts master uncle seed Liang is very different, seed sandalwood since childhood will not be in the rivers and lakes, he is still a teenager, the line of sight is always staring at the Liangmang border, time and time again with his father on the table of the two countries’ border situation map read by candlelight, arrogant and conceited species of Shentong had a time once on a juvenile seed sandalwood spit out the heart, said Liangmang sands, the North Liangmang border, the North Liangmang border, the North Liangmang border is the most important thing to do. Said Liangmang sands, Yan Wenluan of the Northern Liang or my dynasty Yang Yuanzan stream, is certainly a deserved general, enough to stand alone, just compared to Chen Zhi Bao Dong Zhuo Chu Lushan this kind of people, is still a little inferior to measure whether a military general can become a country pillars, to see two things, the first thing is in a specific battle in the offense and defense can run as desired, with the soldiers watertight, and then in the decision of a country’s survival of the battle to achieve The first thing is that in a specific battle, the offense and defense can work well, and the use of troops can be watertight, and then in the battle to determine the survival of a country, to reach the height of the more troops is good, in the premise of equal combat strength, with one thousand soldiers can kill the enemy fifteen, with one hundred thousand soldiers can kill the enemy two hundred thousand, and then wait for the hands of a million iron horsemen, that is the time to sit on the world.

A vice general from the Seed family, his armor stained with blood, left the battlefield outside the mountain pass and rode his horse to Seed Tan’s side, casually breaking an arrow nailed into the iron armor, panting, “My lord, give me another 500 dead horsemen, we will definitely break through the Beiliang’s formation!”

Seed Tan retrieved his thoughts and looked towards the distant battlefield, shaking his head, “My Seed family’s sons and daughters have already died.”

The vice general who had killed the red-eyed soldiers in the battlefield twice was stunned and looked around, only then realizing that the seed family’s full-fledged cavalry had indeed suffered a shocking loss of life. This contact war, seed Tan without hiding, do not hesitate to use the seed family cavalry as the vanguard of the rapid break formation, if it is not so ruthless and decisive, Beiliang 500 dragon elephant elite cavalry by no means to be the first to die in battle, and dragon elephant cavalry corpses piled up together with the North Mang 1,200 riders, it is the color of the seed family private cavalry. At that time, the North Mang cavalry almost succeeded, it is the five hundred dragon elephant army dead soldiers to kill the horse’s initiative, narrowly and narrowly succeeded in blocking the seed family follow up cavalry smooth forward, after this kind of Tan respectively with two to three hundred species of elite cavalry several times to break the formation, but also by the North Liang military general to block the potential gap is about to take shape.

The vice general said hatefully, “If it were anywhere else, even if we were to give another 5,000 riders to Liuzhou, it wouldn’t be enough for us to hack and slash!”

Seed Tan, whose full-fledged cavalry had already suffered heavy casualties, smiled bitterly and lamented, “Yes, it’s just a pity that it happens to be the end of this Miyun Pass, where it’s impossible to advance or retreat.”

The vice general who had never thought of retreating heard this odd statement and wondered, “My lord, why can’t we retreat? Besides, there is still a battle to be fought, it is a bit difficult to win, and it is estimated that three to four thousand people will still die, but we definitely do not have to retreat, ah?”

Seed Tan glanced back and then turned his head to look out of the mountain pass, “Even you know that those troops outside of Beiliang’s mountain pass alone are bound to lose, so why is that Beiliang general still fighting to the death and not retreating? From Miyun mountain pass to Fengxiang Linyao towns, it’s a flat river with no obstacles for the cavalry to ride, why did Beiliang defend this place to the death? It’s obvious that so many people are going to die, is it possible that it’s purely for the sake of exchanging troops?”

The deputy general’s heart trembled as he looked at the pass behind the North Mang cavalry and muttered, “My lord, don’t those big shots in the Temple Hall of the Western Capital say that the battle in Liuzhou is insignificant? North Liang has placed so many troops in Liuzhou, does it not care about the defense line outside Liangzhou Pass?”

Seed Tan took a deep breath and laughed at himself, “It was only after I encountered this troop that I realized that Northern Liang had gone crazy and ultimately chose Liuzhou as the winner of the second Liang-Mang battle.”

Seed Tan pointed the tip of his sword out of the mountain pass and laughed fiercely, “It doesn’t matter, as long as we are able to rush out of this Miyun mountain pass, Northern Liang is going to lose badly in this desperate gamble!”

Seed Tan ordered in a deep voice, “All Seed Family cavalry, charge with me!”

The two thousand-foot captains who had long jumped into action had clasped their fists and led the way.

The deputy general hesitated for a moment and asked cautiously, “Is your son really going to charge in person?”

Seed Tan laughed boldly, “I want to personally meet that Northern Liang general!”

Intuition told this Northern Mang Xia捺钵 that killing that Northern Liang general would be more meaningful than killing 10,000 Northern Liang cavalry!

In the Miyun mountain pass, 10,000 horsemen rode like thunder.

The leader of the cavalry general is Cao Wei, behind him 10,000 riders, has everyone changed horses many times, behind them there are constantly tired paralyzed in the mountain pass in the auxiliary horse, many war riders foaming at the mouth, and even hundreds of horses directly fell to the ground and died.

Cao Wei 10,000 riders also pulled out an extremely long line, this kind of completely regardless of horse power regardless of the formation of the long-distance running attack, casually replaced by another battlefield, absolutely able to let the generals cursed, simply as if it were a child’s play!

Ten thousand riders like waves of river water flowing east.

At this moment, this Miyun mountain pass is like the Guangling River.

There are constantly exhausted horses with weak legs, and the only thing the horsemen with excellent horsemanship can do is to drive their horses to turn their heads a little bit, and try to fall on the right and left sides of the marching route, and then the horsemen who fell to the ground did not care about the death of their beloved mounts, and quickly switched to horses to continue to charge forward.

The good thing is that most of the three things of spears, spears, riding bows and light crossbows were given to Xie Xijian’s cavalry, which to a certain extent reduced the load of Cao Wei’s war horse auxiliary horses.

Cao Wei muttered: ”Surname Xie, you kid must not think of letting me help you collect your corpse! If you can’t hold on, to the North Mang barbarians in the mountain pass outside to wait for the rabbit, together with the old man in the back of the ass to eat the sand of the Rotten Mountain monks, the old man this 10,000 riders will also be considered to be handed over in this place of the bird not shit!”

Running all the way.

Cao Wei felt as if every tiny breath he took was as clear as thunder, even masking the sound of the horses’ hooves.

This meant that his 10,000 horsemen were almost nearing the limit of their physical strength.

It also meant that such an exhausted cavalry had in fact lost the possibility of charging back and forth.

Cao Wei was betting that Xie Xijian would not only be able to defend the exit of Miyun Pass, but also that Xie Xijian’s cavalry would be able to severely damage the main force of Tan’s cavalry.

This is quite incomprehensible.

Cao Wei said in his heart: surnamed Xie, I know it is very difficult, but …… you are the Xie Xijian, one of the Western Chu Twins, ah!

Near the easternmost end of the Miyun Pass.

Has been broken reading “let me hear a little bit of noise, must be a little bit of noise” Cao Wei suddenly, haha laugh, almost laugh out of tears.

Cao Wei, who could already hear the sounds of killing in front of him, suddenly stopped his horse and turned his head to roar, “Change horses! Put on your armor!”

Soon Cao Wei was dumbfounded and he said, “It’s come to this, change the f*cking horse!”

The 10,000 horsemen who stretched extremely long gradually stopped, and then everyone put on their armor and drew their swords.

Far away from the western region of the Central Plains, this Cao Wei’s 10,000 cavalry of Northern Liang seemingly came out of nowhere, and their short stopping to rest and recuperate.

Like a suddenly still Guangling River.

After the stillness, it is the surging eastward flow!

Cao Wei raised his Liang sword high, galloped his horse forward and shouted with all his might: “Kill!”

The battle of Miyun Pass.

Hailed by later generations as the first in mounted combat after the Spring and Autumn Period.
