The ninth general of the Republican Army's spear formation was actually broken through in many places!

Although they are well-trained, condescending, and have high morale, they hold the huge lethal spear in their hands.

However, the Liao people had too many armored cavalry, with a total of 5,000 or more, and they were fighting on the back sea, with advances and no retreats. The huge impact force could not be stopped by just over a thousand long spears.

However, it was still lucky that the armored cavalry of the Liao people had not learned all the skills of the Republican cavalry and the Hexi cavalry. Their impact was a one-time transaction, and they would not launch a second or third wave of charges. Instead, they would engage in hand-to-hand combat after the impact.

But hand-to-hand combat is the weakness of the grassland cavalry. Don’t think that the men on the grassland are good at hand-to-hand combat. In fact, this is not the case. They do not live by wrestling, but by riding horses and archery. Except for a few periods, the warriors on the grassland rely on bows and arrows, rather than by hand-to-hand combat to win.

The Khitan warriors are not good at melee combat.

Therefore, Xue Ding sent a sword and shield soldiers to support the spearmen, and ordered the crossbow soldiers and scout cavalry to attack in the form of scattered soldiers, constantly shooting with Tianjin crossbows and buffalo horn bows to support the battle between the front-line spearmen and sword and shield soldiers.

The battlefield in Huangjiagou was in a stalemate.

"Run up!"

"It's a pity that I'm blocked..."

"It doesn't matter, it won't last long! The key now is our wing!"

On the beach under the hillside of Huangjiagou, Xiao Fengxian and Xiao Wuna finally stepped on the solid ground.

But the situation was not beneficial to them. Although the armored cavalry on the front line was quite powerful and rushed up to the hillside of Huangjiagou, the danger of being wiped out was not far away from them. Their wings were still weak, exposed to the powerful Republican army's attack on cavalry and artillery!

Now it is time for life to pass, and the potential of Xiao Fengxian and Xiao Wuna has been stimulated to the extreme. They discussed and decided to resist the side attack of the Youzhou army separately. Xiao Wuna personally went to block the left side, and Xiao Fengxian went to block the right side, and Xiao Agu was responsible for the front side with the Flying Tiger Army Xiangwen and Xiao Agu.

Just when Xiao Fengxian and Xiao Wuna gathered up Yu Yong to fight to trap beasts, the iron-armored cavalry under Wu Tian had already arranged the assault team. This time they arranged the formation along the slope of Daniu Mountain. Although they were condescending and had bonuses in impact kinetic energy, the terrain was not wide. All Wu Tian adopted the tactic of attacking teams in sequence. With 40 cavalry as a team, more than 100 teams were arranged along the hillside and mountain roads. They almost filled the entire eastern slope of Daniu Mountain.

As the charge drums began, a team of armored cavalry led by Wu Jie, who avenged his father, was the first to attack. More than forty armored cavalry swept down along the gentle east slope of Daniu Mountain. The spears in the front row had been flattened, and the war horses put down their face-covering armor, but covered their heads and rushed forward desperately.

The speed of the war horses gradually increased, the horse's hooves roared, the earth trembled, and the knights shouted the slogan "Keep the laws of heaven and defend the republic", and rushed towards the enemy ahead with an unstoppable trend!

At the hillside of Huangjiagou, the Liao army's infantry had barely formed a formation. However, because the situation was too chaotic before, Xiao Fengxian and Xiao Wuna were eager to put the troops into the decisive attack, so they did not carefully organize the formation. The spearmen, swords and shields, the main soldiers and the auxiliary soldiers of the guards were all mixed together. Moreover, the spearmen of the Liao army were mostly cavalrymen, and they were originally cavalrymen, and of course they would not equip the spears of the Republic's spears. In addition, the cavalry of the Liao army was divided into severity, and only armored cavalrymen, as heavy cavalrymen, would be equipped with extended cavalry or horse scepters. Ordinary light cavalry only had short cavalry. The length of this cavalry is not as good as the horse scepters or extended cavalrymen used by the Republic's knights, so it is extremely unfavorable to resist the impact of the Republic's cavalry.

However, Wu Jie, who had just died, had his red eyes charged, was unable to break through the formation of the Liao army. Even though the condescending heavy cavalry rushed straight into the depths of the chaotic formation of the Liao people with huge impact energy, and knocked away many Liao soldiers, it was not enough to knock the Liao army formation with a huge density of troops to penetrate.

Now more than 20,000 infantry are crowded together. Even if there are not many chapters, the formation is always thick enough, and there are so many platoons that can't be counted. It is impossible to be penetrated by dozens of cavalry assaults!

Wu Jie still kept his mind clear and did not fight desperately because of his father's death. After the impact, he took advantage of the chaos of the Liao people and beat the horses in his hands to force the Liao people to dodge one after another. Then he turned his horse's head and left with his subordinates like a whirlwind. He did not retreat to the hillside, but ran towards the frozen sea, walked around the other side of Daniu Mountain through the ice, went uphill from there, waiting for the next round of impact.

While rushing to the sea, he carried a long snare, took out a bow and arrow, shot a series of beads, and shot more than 20 sharp arrows into the dense Liao soldiers. Of course, he was not alone able to shoot a bead on the horse's back. The students from the Knight Primary School and Knight Academy were not bad at riding and shooting. Each of the more than 40 cavalry shot out more than 20 arrows, and one piece was seven or eight hundred arrows. In front of the Liao army, there were heavy casualties and injuries.

Of course, the Liao people also had bows and arrows, but they did not equip crossbows, they were just ordinary bows. The soldiers usually had a stubborn horn bow, and the auxiliary soldiers were generally only horse bows used by grassland herders. The arrowheads shot from these two bows were not penetrating enough, and they had no lethality to the Republican knights wearing full armor.

The knights led by Wu Jie were only the first wave. Behind him, more than a hundred cavalry teams came one after another, attacking the chaotic Liao army.

However, the Liao people who were forced into desperate situations also burst out with a rare tenacity. Under the impact of armored cavalry, they actually withstood! At the same time, on the hillside of Huangjiagou, the ninth general of the Republican army fell into a hard battle and was oppressed by the heavy cavalry of thousands of Liao people.

It turned out that the armored cavalry was the core of the Liao people's military division. The members were all heroes in the palace division. Now they were in a desperate situation. All their potentials were stimulated to the extreme, and an astonishing battle broke out, which made the soldiers of the Republican Army a little difficult to resist.

The lives of both sides were constantly consumed on the slopes of Huangjiagou. In the fiercest place of the fierce battle, the bodies piled up layer by layer, blood flowed, dyeing the hillside covered with snow red.

Seeing that the Republican Army was about to lose support in the direction of Huangjiagou, 5,000 armored cavalrymen of the first cavalry general of the Republican Army arrived at the front of the left wing of the Liao army with a battalion.

The preparatory general of this artillery battalion was named Liu Xun, a son of the Liu family in Youzhou, the four Yan families. As early as the first few years after the opening of Jiehe Shang City, he moved to Shang City with his family, and then entered Nankai Academy (now Nankai Primary School) and Knight Academy. After graduating from the Knight Academy, he stayed at the school as an instructor, and later transferred to Luogang to engage in artillery and became the first generation artillery commander of the Youzhou Army. When he used "iron sand bombs" to bombard the Jurchens of Shunguo Ministry, Luogang and him witnessed the power of close combat in artillery.

So after Luogang entered a stalemate in the battle in Huangjiagou, he ordered Liu Xun to lead his artillery battalion and push it to more than 200 steps outside the Liao army's front line under the cover of the cavalry, setting up cannons there to bombard the dismounted cavalry on the left wing of the Liao people at close range.

Before the cannon moved, a cowhide shell "iron sand bullet" had been filled into the cannon chamber. So after the 9 doors were placed, there was a roar. Nine pieces of iron filled with a large number of small iron pillars, and the small iron blocks and iron sand shells were sprayed out of the cannon chamber by gunpowder!

This was a close-range bombardment! And it was a shotgun, no one could stand it!

The left wing of the Liao army was suddenly in chaos. The Liao soldiers who were originally carrying their lives were on the verge of collapse again and were about to run away. Someone shouted, "Are the men of the Great Khitan still afraid of demonic magic? They rushed up and snatched their magic weapons!"

This shout finally aroused the last bit of Yu Yong in the hearts of these Liao soldiers, and rushed forward after a while.

Liu Xun's artillery was very fast. Before the Liao soldiers rushed up, they completed another round of filling. Before Liu Xun's orders, the artillery even saved the aim and directly ignited the medicine.

Nine "iron sand bullets" spewed out of the muzzle and randomly turned into countless iron bullets, iron blocks, and iron sand, knocking down all the Liao people who rushed to the front! The scene was extremely bloody and extremely tragic.

However, the Liao soldiers in desperate situation fought to the death and continued to fight!

Now it was Liu Xun and his artillerymen who ran away. They did not destroy the cannons, nor did they ignite gunpowder, and they ran away just by scattering their bodies.

Nine artillery cannons actually fell into the hands of the Liao people.

This made these Khitans in desperate situation very happy and cheered around the cannon: We finally have "magic weapons" and are no longer afraid of the magic of the Youzhou Army!

But how is this magic weapon used? Should I chant a mantra? No one has taught me?

Just when the Khitans just thought that they would not know how to use "Magic Tools", they didn't know who they were, and howled again: "Iron Cavalry! Iron Cavalry..."

The armored cavalry of Youzhou Army launched an assault!

Just as the Liao army was running to grab cannons just now, the armored cavalry of the artillery battalion escorting Liu Xun did not fight, but dodged more than two hundred steps back and opened a distance of impact.

After Liu Xun's artillery ran down, the battalion's cavalry immediately launched a counterattack. Instead, they were divided into small teams, dispatching one unit at a time, and more than 1,500 cavalry rushed up. They took advantage of the opportunity of the Liao people cheering around the cannons and rushed up. They rushed to pieces, knocked to death, trampled to death, and stabbed hundreds of people with horses to death. The rest ran back with their heads in their arms.

As soon as they ran away, Liu Xun ran back with his artillery. When he ran back, he saw that the cannons were intact, so he continued to load and fire the iron sand bomb!

Under the bombardment of these nine cannons at close range, the left wing of the Liao army could no longer hold on and fell into a complete collapse!
