"Waaah!"
Accompanied by the sound of horns, the heavy cavalry, which had been following the Mongol light cavalry, poured into the battlefield!
In Bai Qi's tactics, the first volley of arrows was intended to capture the Tu Yuan army and inflict casualties, while the light cavalry forced these Tu Yuan soldiers to engage in battle while wounded.
While they were locked in fierce combat, the heavy cavalry maintained their formation and used their numerical advantage to encircle the enemy!
In this way, once the encirclement is complete, we can crush them directly!
A loud shout echoed across the battlefield:
"retreat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the light cavalrymen who were fighting Tu Yuanbing quickly retreated.
A light cavalryman rode his warhorse swiftly across the battlefield. When he reached Dian Wei's side, he extended his hand, which Dian Wei immediately took and mounted his horse.
The Mongolian horse, bearing the weight of two people, was still panting heavily despite its robust build.
Dian Wei was still holding half of Dai Keli's head in his hand. He smiled, waved the head in his hand, and shouted:
"You Tu Yuan people's heads aren't hard either! Hahahaha!"
The laughter was arrogant and triumphant, but the Tu Yuan soldiers, seeing their commander dead, dared not approach. At this moment, everyone was in a state of panic, and all they wanted was to escape the battlefield as quickly as possible.
As the light cavalry that had fought them were rapidly withdrawing from the battlefield, an ominous premonition arose in everyone's hearts.
A tall, imposing deputy general of the Tu Yuan army, panting heavily, looked around. He saw that the heavy cavalry were already retreating from the battlefield, while the light cavalry had begun to withdraw through a gap. He knew that if the heavy cavalry charged forward, no one would be spared.
He gritted his teeth, steadied his panicked mind, raised his weapon, and shouted:
"Quick! Follow them and get out through the gap!"
"We can't let them surround us! Charge out with me! Now!!!"
With a loud shout, the remaining Tuyuan cavalrymen hurriedly spurred their horses and followed the Mongol light cavalry toward the breach.
As Dian Wei was being led out of the battlefield, he saw them chasing after him, frowned, and immediately turned around to fight.
Just then, a familiar voice called out from not far away:
"Don't look back, get out of there quickly!"
Dian Wei turned his head and saw Huo Qubing shouting loudly not far away, while archers were already nocking their bows and drawing their arrows beside him. He grinned and immediately ignored him.
"Ignore them, retreat quickly!" Dian Wei shouted.
Without the slightest hesitation, the light cavalrymen quickly retreated towards the breach.
Huo Qubing then narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice:
"Be careful to keep your distance and avoid shooting your own men. Just block their path of advance!"
"Release the arrows!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several loud "bangs" were heard.
The bow is drawn like the autumn moon traversing the sky, the arrow flies like a shooting star falling to earth!
The arrow, released from its bow, shot towards the charging Tu Yuan cavalry!
Before the battle began, the Tu Yuan soldiers could still rely on their intact formation to raise their shields and block, but after this fierce fighting, their formation had been completely disrupted, and many of them even lost their shields in the battle.
At this moment, all they wanted was to escape through the gap, even if it meant defeat, as long as they could stay alive, it would be a good thing.
Therefore, when the arrows came flying, everyone had to use their own abilities to try and avoid them.
Therefore, some people lowered their heads and lay prone on the horse's back, while those with superb riding skills squeezed their legs tightly around the horse's body, leaned their bodies, and pressed themselves against the horse's belly to avoid arrows.
The cavalrymen who still had shields were in a much better position; they only needed to raise their shields to block.
but--
These arrows weren't just aimed at their bodies; most of them hit their warhorses!
The warhorse, in pain, galloped wildly and crashed into the crowd, causing countless people to fall from their horses.
In the midst of chaos, how could they possibly catch up with the light cavalry?
The lieutenant watched as the light cavalry ran further and further away until he saw them exit through the gap, which was then closed in by the heavy cavalry.
When he saw that the breach had been plugged, a deep sense of despair washed over him.
On the battlefield, if you are surrounded by heavily armored cavalry, you will be trapped in a meat grinder. If they charge, there will be no one left but bones!
In the Tu Yuan Kingdom, heavy cavalry was the most formidable force, but now his own army was surrounded by the enemy's heavy cavalry, and fear from the depths of his soul enveloped him.
His face was deathly pale, and his back was completely soaked with cold sweat.
A cold wind blew across his face, and he couldn't help but shiver.
At this moment, the Tu Yuan soldiers standing nearby began to shout:
"General! We're surrounded! We can only break out in one direction!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked up and around. What he saw made his heart sink even further.
There are too many, too many!
Too many heavily armored cavalry!
No matter which direction, countless iron cavalry are galloping towards us. This torrent of steel is like a towering wave crashing against the shore. When this wave crashes down, how can it be stopped?
"It's over, it's over, we can't get out... we can't get out..." the lieutenant muttered weakly.
But this sound was immediately drowned out by shouts of battle!
That was a roar coming from the heavily armored cavalry:
"All troops, listen to my command! Charge immediately!"
"Crush them!!!"
"kill!"
Amidst the shouts, the rapid clatter of hooves sounded like continuous thunderclaps, dust flew up from the ground, and the long spears held aloft gleamed coldly in the dim light of the day.
