[Chapter 314 The Battle of the Cavalry]

Plage panicked.

When he arrived thirty miles away from Jincheng, he encountered a broken Xiliang cavalry.

This Xiliang cavalry belongs to the Jili Army.

After the defeat, they have been wandering around, knowing that Jincheng was broken.

After encountering Prache’s army, they ran to attach themselves, and at the same time told Prache the news.

Plache immediately ordered the army to go west, bypassing Jincheng and going to Tongguan.

Although there are three passes in the west.

But the opposite of his pass is the Jin River, and they can’t cross the Jin River. They can only return to the land of Xiliang by going through the same pass.

With slight cold sweat on his forehead, he kept urging the soldiers to march.

He originally thought that he could go to Jincheng, cooperate with Murong Wuji in the city, at least let Murong Wuji break out.

Unexpectedly, now Jincheng has become a trap waiting for them.

“Boom boom boom…” Just as the Xiliang army was rushing on the official road, the ground seemed to tremble.

Plache looked in the direction of the sound, and saw countless silver armored cavalry galloping towards them in the billowing smoke.

This scene made Prache look ashen.

Because he trusted the Ma family, Murong Wuji only gave him very few cavalry at that time.

Even among the infantry, there are 30% of the soldiers who hit the son.

Now how does this army, which is almost all infantry, face King Yan’s cavalry.

As a Xiliang general, he knew very well that on this kind of plain, it was terrible for infantry to meet cavalry.

“You outflank from the left, and you outflank from the right.” Zhong Li said to the two generals beside him, holding a silver gun.

Obtaining his order, two groups of cavalry were immediately separated from the cavalry.

They left the official road, galloped across the fields on both sides, and gradually surpassed the Xiliang army.

Seeing a large number of cavalry chasing them, Xiliang soldiers immediately panicked.

They are not afraid of the Ma family, but they are afraid of King Yan’s army.

Ji Li’s army was wiped out by King Yan, and Jincheng was captured by King Yan.

All this shows that King Yan’s army is not comparable to the Ma’s army.

After the two-winged cavalry caught up with the Xiliang vanguard in the front, they immediately dispatched part of the cavalry to cut off the path of the Xiliang soldiers.

At the same time, Zhongli caught up with the tail of Xiliang soldiers.

At this time, the only cavalry in the Xiliang army left the army and rushed towards Zhongli’s cavalry.

Half of them rushed to the cavalry who blocked their way, and half rushed to Zhongli.

“Soldiers, hold on to the sabers in your hands, don’t embarrass us cavalrymen.” Zhong Li roared and drew out his sabers.

The Xiliang cavalry is similar to the Dasong cavalry. The main weapon is the saber, and there are not many horses and shooters.

Unlike Beidi cavalry, most of them ride and shoot.

At the moment, the cavalry from both sides collided and immediately fought into a group.

Zhongli led the way alone, a silver spear flew left and right, and Xiliang cavalrymen were picked off one after another.

Other cavalry also chased and killed each other with Xiliang cavalry in the open battlefield.

But two fists are no match for four hands, and the Xiliang cavalry lost a bit in numbers.

Three or four royal cavalrymen chased and fought a Xiliang soldier, but the Xiliang cavalry couldn’t stand it at all, leaving behind a pile of corpses and was routed.

At this time, Zhong Li ordered the cavalry to regroup again.

Under his command, the cavalry formed a tight horizontal formation.

They will launch a charge against the Xiliang army.

But when they were fighting with Xiliang cavalry.

The Xiliang army has changed.

The long snake-shaped marching team gradually turned into a battle formation in wartime.

Obviously, the Xiliang generals took advantage of this time to dispatch troops as soon as possible.

Looking at the spreading Xiliang army, Zhongli looked for a flaw in it.

This Xiliang army has archers, sword and shield players, and spearmen. It has a complete range of arms.

At this moment, the archers were at the front, and they all put their hands in the quiver.

The spearmen also pointed their spears at them, forming a tight formation.

“General, let’s go!” said one of the generals.

During this time, the cavalry were simmering in their hearts.

They all said that he was raised by his stepmother, so he could only pick up the leaks on the battlefield.

Now that such a good opportunity is ahead, some generals will naturally get hotheaded.

Zhong Li shook his head.

Attacking the tight infantry formation is ruining the lives of soldiers in vain.

Although he also wanted to gain a reputation as a cavalry at this moment, he couldn’t disregard the lives of soldiers like this.

“Don’t worry, now is not the time.” Zhong Li said.

He knew that the Xiliang army was more urgent than them now.

Standing in a stalemate, they must be the ones who suffer in the end.

The Xiliang general must also be very clear.

He believed that the Xiliang generals would march again.

And at that time, when the formation is chaotic, it is time for them to charge.

Just as Zhongli thought, Plache was very anxious at this moment.

He only wanted the King Yan cavalry to rush forward at this moment.

This way he can defeat the cavalryman and continue his escape.

But King Yan’s cavalry remained motionless at the moment, just watching them.

If this continues, not to mention that King Yan’s army will catch up.

And if they don’t eat or drink, the soldiers’ physical strength will not be able to keep up, and they will fall into a bigger collapse.

A quarter of an hour passed, and

two quarters of an hour passed, and the sweat on Pratche’s forehead grew more and more.

Xiliang soldiers also became more and more uneasy.

After half an hour, Plache finally couldn’t bear it anymore, and he ordered the soldiers in front to attack the cavalry in front of them who cut off their road.

The Xiliang soldiers were ordered to move forward immediately, and the Xiliang army formation began to be pulled.

Since the Xiliang soldiers defended against the enemy on all sides, the soldiers faced four directions.

As soon as the soldiers in front moved, they couldn’t keep up when they stood sideways, and the formation immediately became loose.

Seizing this opportunity, Zhong Li immediately ordered the two wings to attack the weakly defended position.

“Kill!” A voice shouted.

The two-winged cavalry cut in from the loose position in the Xiliang army.

The horses collided, the sabers were raised, blood spattered, and the Xiliang army was in chaos.

The two wings were broken through, and the Xiliang soldiers at the front and back also panicked.

At this moment, Zhong Ligao shouted and led the cavalry behind him to kill him.

With a high degree of mobility, Zhong Li charged a certain distance after killing in the Xiliang army for a while, and by rushing into the Xiliang army again, he kept making his horse hit the Xiliang cavalry.

The formation of Xiliang cavalry became more and more chaotic.

Just then, a more dull rumbling sound sounded.

Wearing plate armor, heavy cavalry with horses and armor came.

They walked with the infantry, with twenty thousand fusiliers behind them.

Seeing King Yan’s army coming, the morale of Xiliang soldiers collapsed immediately.

Among them, the Zhuangzi army surrendered one after another, and the Xiliang soldiers scattered and fled.

Naturally, Zhong Li would not let go of the opportunity to chase and kill him, and covered up the kill all the way.

Seeing this, Chang Wei smiled helplessly, and ordered the fusiliers to clear the battlefield.

In the evening, Zhongli led the cavalry back and dragged a general from Xiliang, who was Plache.

“General, one leader and three deputy leaders of the Xiliang army are all put to death.” Zhong Li said, and then threw Prache’s body down.

During the pursuit, Plage fought him and was cut off by him.

“Good job.” Chang Wei laughed.

The Xiliang army in Jinzhou was wiped out this time.
