Chapter 303: Noobs Pecking at Each Other (Part )
On Wangyu Plain, two armies, each with tens of thousands of people, slowly approached each other.
The Northern Wild Barbarians' army in the west was mainly composed of cavalry, with nearly 10,000 infantry. However, the actual combat troops and auxiliary troops only numbered 15,000, and the rest were old, weak, sick, young, and even women, who were just there to make up the numbers.
The barbarian leader was helpless. He couldn't understand why tens of thousands of Southern Chen troops suddenly appeared on the shore of Guilang Lake!
Although this Southern Chen army was just a group of lowly slaves who were temporarily armed, they had several tens of thousands of people who were temporarily plundered from nearby tribes, and there were several young and strong men!
Originally, he thought he was only dealing with the Aokong tribes, which numbered no more than 10,000 people, and that he could easily win with the troops he had. But now, he was no longer sure of winning.
Now, he deployed 7,000 of his most elite cavalry in the center of the army, 1,500 combat soldiers on each wing, and 2,500 auxiliary soldiers, with these 15,000 men leading the charge.
Behind these 55,000 men, there were another 15,000 cavalry, with the same strength to match the troops in front. At the end, there were nearly 10,000 infantry ready to follow and kill the cavalry after they broke through the enemy formation!
"Hope! There aren't many of these Chen people who can really fight!"
The captain thought as he led the barbarian army to slowly press towards the revenge army.
To the east, the so-called military formation set up by the revenge army was not a decent military formation at all. After all, these tens of thousands of people were slaves a day or two ago, and most of them were just civilians before being captured.
It's good enough that they have the courage to fight at this time.
The two thousand most elite soldiers of the Xuehen Army had already been sent elsewhere by Liu Feiyun.
Although the Xuehen Army was not short of horses at this time, there were not many people who could ride horses, and even fewer who could fight on horseback.
Now, Liu Feiyun deployed the remaining 18,000 cavalry on the two wings, while he personally led tens of thousands of infantry main forces in the center.
These 8,000 cavalrymen of the Xuehen Army are called cavalrymen, but in reality they are just armed civilians who can barely mount horses and draw bows and crossbows. Their horse-riding combat capability is probably not even as good as that of the old, weak, sick, young people, and even women of the barbarians!
Liu Feiyun told them that their mission was very simple, which was to harass them with long-range attacks and move around the two wings of the barbarian formation.
The real outcome would depend on whether the infantry could withstand the impact of the main cavalry of the barbarians, and whether the two thousand elite cavalry could complete the tasks assigned by him in a timely manner.
As the two armies continued to get closer, the barbarian cavalry finally began to speed up and prepared to launch a charge!
At Liu Feiyun's command, the infantry formation began to slow down slowly and eventually stopped completely, forming an uneven line with uneven density.
After all, this is not a real army and it is impossible to form a strict military formation.
Fortunately, the armor rate of these people was not lower than that of the barbarians on the opposite side. Moreover, most of them were able-bodied men who had survived many hardships and had a deep hatred for the barbarians.
Although they were afraid when they saw the barbarian cavalry rushing towards them, their hatred for the barbarians and their obsession with revenge for their families made them tremble and hold the various weapons tightly in their hands.
When both sides were within the range of bows and crossbows, they took the lead in attacking each other with rain of arrows.
In a moment, the barbarian cavalrymen were shot by arrows and fell off their horses, and the soldiers of the Revenge Army were shot by arrows and fell to the ground.
Finally, the barbarian cavalry finally increased their horse speed to the maximum and violently rammed into the infantry formation of the Xuehen Army.
The barbarian captain took the lead and rushed straight to where Liu Feiyun was.
Although he did not recognize Liu Feiyun, just by seeing Liu Feiyun surrounded by a group of people wearing imperial standard armor, he knew that Liu Feiyun must be a noble person.
"Kill him!" Liu Feiyun shouted.
Tiemushan, holding a long-handled axe, was the first to rush forward.
Although he was just walking, with his size and the special armor he was wearing, he was no shorter than the barbarian Lady Wan who was riding on a horse!
The captain saw a large man blocking the young nobleman and couldn't help but exclaimed, "Giant Bear Tribe!?"
Although he was surprised, he still stabbed Tiemushan with the spear in his hand.
He took advantage of the horse's momentum and secretly practiced his magic. A spiral of energy shot out before the tip of the spear and pierced Tiemushan directly.
"Humph! I am a human-level master! Even if you are from the Giant Bear Tribe, what does it matter? You will still die under my gun!"
The commander sneered in his heart!
However, despite his tall stature and heavy armor, Tiemushan was not slow. He just leaned slightly to avoid the spiral energy and the spear tip, and then chopped with his giant axe.
With just this one strike, Wan Chang and his horse were cut into two pieces.
The battle had just begun and the barbarian commander was killed!
However, under the huge inertia, the barbarian cavalry continued to crash into the formation of the Vengeance Army.
However, it is easy for these barbarians to charge into the infantry formation of the Xuehen Army, but it is difficult for them to continue to charge out!
Although most of the revenge army didn't know any military skills, they could only stab and chop with their spears and swords!
But they were fearless and refused to retreat.
Once these barbarian cavalry lost their speed advantage, they would be forced into close combat with the Xuehen Army.
Soon, the two sides were deadlocked and engaged in a melee with no tactics or strategies at all.
