    Chapter 26

    Attack strongly

    Changsun Qing's cavalry also had crossbows, but not many. They also fought back, but their lethality was not enough for the well-equipped and sturdy Anxi cavalry. There were almost no cavalry who fell off their horses. However, Changsun Qing's side was shot  More than a hundred riders have been dismounted. In this case, there is only one result of falling from the horse. It is trampled into a piece of human skin mixed with iron armor by the hoofs of one's own horses. The fallen horse also caused chaos in the formation of Changsun Qing's cavalry. In order to avoid being beaten, the cavalry  The war horse stumbles, and the horse is urged to jump over the injured and dead horses on the ground, but is it possible to avoid or jump easily in the high-speed movement?  As a result, the chaos expanded, more cavalry fell from their horses, and there were gaps in the cavalry formation of 2,000 people, and the formation was not so tight.

    The cavalry on both sides charged at high speed. After approaching quickly, they collided with each other. The cavalry led by Zhang Sunqing, who was slightly loose, seemed to have hit the mountain wall head on. Although Li Zuoguo's five thousand cavalry were not heavy armored cavalry, they had vests on their horses.  The neck guard has a breastplate and a faceplate, which is a great advantage in frontal collisions. Not to mention, Li Zuoguo has been working hard to change horse breeds in recent years. To be precise, the current batch of Dawan war horses are no longer  It is a purebred Dawan horse. This kind of war horse has only been incorporated into the cavalry sequence for less than three months. Li Zuoguo's soldiers were the first to be equipped with this kind of war horse. Li Zuoguo made this kind of war horse taller, stronger and more endurance.  Well, the war horse that is heavier and more adaptable is named Shule horse. This is also Li Zuoguo's lazy behavior, because the place where this kind of war horse was cultivated is Shule.

    Now the advantages of this kind of war horse are clearly reflected in the confrontation with the Changsun Qing cavalry. First of all, the war horse is very tame. When the same kind of horse dies and the smell of blood fills the air, the war horse is still tame and obeys the command of the master to move forward or retreat.  , and then there is the advantage of having an advantage in terms of weight. The Shule horse is a head taller than the Yili horse on which Changsun Qing's cavalry sits, and the average weight is more than 100 kilograms. Some of the other majestic horses are even stronger than the enemy soldiers in front of them.  The war horse weighs more than two hundred kilograms, and with its excellent average protection ability, it is an overwhelming advantage.

    Having said so much, the actual situation on the battlefield is a simple acceleration of the cavalry on both sides. Then Changsun Qing's cavalry was knocked to pieces by Li Zuoguo's personal cavalry. Countless horses on Changsun Qing's side fell to the ground with long neighs and were beaten by Li Zuoguo's side.  The horse was knocked down, and Li Zuoguo's cavalry rushed forward without stopping. The horse and warriors who fell on the ground were trampled directly. The huge impact was that as long as the cavalry in front was collided head-on, they would die or be injured, not to mention that it was like a jungle.  Generally pointing forward.

    Many cavalrymen with a death wish struggled to stab the opponent's cavalry with their swords. However, what they saw was such a huge impact that the weapon stabbed easily slipped away from the opponent's armor, without any impact at all.  The effect was achieved, but he was stabbed violently, and some were stabbed straight, but the opponent's cavalry only turned sideways or backwards slightly, and the weapons slipped easily. Some cavalry fought hard with broken arms at the last moment.  After stabbing out the weapon in his hand, he finally received certain results, but this result only hurt the opponent, but he had to pay the price with his life.

    Changsun Qingchong was the first one. The cavalryman opposite him was covered in armor, and even his face was wearing a visor engraved with a beast pattern, leaving only cold eyes. Changsun Qing had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and was able to  Changsun Chenghua's personal commander is also very capable. Without slowing down his horse speed, he adjusted the angle of the spear in his hand and stabbed the Anxi cavalryman in the chest. The Anxi cavalry also stabbed with the spear in his hand.  Xiang Changsun Qing.

    The impact of the high-speed charging horses lasted only a moment. It was not like in the novel where they could toss and turn. Time seemed to have frozen. Changsun Qing felt a tightness in his chest, and his ears were filled with huge noises. Changsun Qing  His long spear was longer, two feet longer than the opponent's cavalry spear. He hit the cavalryman first. Changsun Qing's arm shook violently. The sharp tip of his spear did not pierce the opponent's chest. It was just a huge impact.  The cavalryman leaned back on his horse, and the cavalryman's cavalry spear also hit Changsun Qing's chest at the same time. Although the other party was hit first, there was no power on the cavalryman's body, and it did not penetrate Changsun Qingming's light armor.  protection, but then Changsun Qing felt like the real person was flying.

    It turned out that the opponent's horse collided with Chang Sun Qing's horse violently, breaking Chang Sun Qing's horse's tendons and fractures. Chang Sun Qing's horse suddenly fell down alone, lifting Chang Sun Qing's whole body into the air, and  After the opposing cavalry's horse knocked down Changsun Qing's horse, he himself was also knocked to the ground by the huge force. The horses in the first row fell to the ground one after another under such a terrifying impact. The cavalry on Li Zuoguo's side  Many people also fell to the ground, because the force of such an impact was too great, even if the war horses had protective vests.

    The cavalrymen on both sides in the front row suffered heavy losses. Changsun Qing adjusted his body in the air and landed firmly, wiping his body.The cavalry rushed forward and collided with Li Zuoguo's soldiers. The two sides had already decided the outcome. Not only did Li Zuoguo's cavalry have the upper hand in numbers, but their equipment and horses also completely overwhelmed Changsun Chenghua's soldiers in morale. This moment caused huge casualties.  , Li Zuoguo's personal soldiers also suffered losses, but compared with Changsun Chenghua's personal soldiers, it was simply negligible. The ground was full of dead horses and cavalrymen who fell to the ground.

    Changsun Qing was surrounded by his trusted cavalry. At this time, the opposing cavalry were all entangled, and both sides lost speed. Li Zuoguo's cavalry could penetrate Changsun Chenghua's cavalry formation, but this would be equivalent to letting go.  Changsun Chenghua ran away, so Li Zuoguo's cavalry consciously slowed down a little during the final charge, and the formation was thick enough. One of Changsun Qing's soldiers gave him a war horse and mounted it.  Sun Qing, the commander-in-chief, appeared to be extremely brave. He took five Anxi cavalrymen off their horses and formed a small circle with his two hundred cavalrymen to advance on the battlefield.

    At this time, Changsun Qing saw Changsun Chenghua's military flag from a distance, so he led the two hundred cavalry around him and rushed there. He also wanted to rescue Changsun Chenghua, but his good luck ended here, because he and his  Li Zuoguo's small team was targeted by Li Zuoguo. Li Zuoguo took the lead at the beginning, but when the two armies collided, Li Zuoguo's soldiers on both sides invariably urged their horses to pass Li Zuoguo, blocking him tightly behind him.  , so Li Zuoguo didn't get the chance to take action at first.

    Li Zuoguo also understood the feelings of his men. Now he was the backbone of the Anxi army. If there was an accident, the entire army would be in danger of falling apart. That's why the soldiers would risk their lives to protect themselves. It seems that he should be cautious when charging into the battle in the future. The front is very fast.  They took the advantage, and the cavalry in the distance also came closer, but they did not join the battle rashly, but silently guarded the routes on both sides. Even if Changsun Chenghua escaped Li Zuoguo's pursuit, he would not be able to escape outside.  Great siege.

    At this time, Li Zuoguo noticed two groups of enemies on the battlefield. One group had more than 500 people, gathered under the banner of "Changsun" to resist, while on the other side there was a cavalry team of about 200 people approaching that way, and the rest of Changsun  Chenghua's cavalry has all been scattered. Fighting alone on such a battlefield means death.

    Li Zuoguo looked at the general who was wearing Mingguang armor and wielding a long sword. He was very skilled in martial arts. Using him as an arrow, the cavalry team quickly moved closer to the five hundred cavalrymen despite being attacked by his own soldiers. On the way  After gathering dozens of horses, Li Zuoguo couldn't help but get excited. He pulled out the Overlord Guaitu gun inserted behind the saddle of Heiyun's horse and rushed towards Changsun Qing as soon as he urged the horse. The soldiers behind him did not dare to neglect and immediately followed.

    Changsun Qing was trying hard to get closer to Changsun Chenghua's banner. The soldiers around him were knocked off their horses from time to time by the Anxi cavalry. The battlefield was very crowded, and almost all of them got close and beat them hard. The horses lost their speed and the battle relied entirely on the knights themselves.  , many cavalrymen felt that the cavalry was too long and had replaced the horizontal swords. At this time, Zhang Sunqing suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart. He looked up and saw a super majestic black horse carrying a tall general not far to the left.  Charge towards yourself.

    Naturally, it was Li Zuoguo who came charging. Li Zuoguo's unstoppable charge immediately showed an unstoppable momentum. On the way to Changsun Qing, a soldier of Changsun Chenghua was using a horizontal sword with a soldier of Li Zuoguo.  They were fighting. When Li Zuoguo rushed past, he flashed the Overlord Guai Tu gun in his hand and struck him diagonally. The soldier of Changsun Chenghua who was fighting was divided into two parts, including his man and his horse. The man was slashed diagonally from his waist.  After being split open, the horse was split in half with its saddle, belt and waist. Neither the man nor the horse died immediately. The screams of humans and the neighing of horses filled the eardrums of nearby soldiers. You must know that both humans and horses can be split in one blow.  The power required to open it is not ordinary, not to mention that Li Zuoguo can easily cut the men and horses into two pieces with just one hand using the Overlord Guaitu Spear. Seeing his commander being so brave, the morale of the surrounding soldiers was greatly boosted, and Changsun Qing  His subordinates were discouraged and demoralized.

    Changsun Qing saw that Li Zuoguo was a general and had the intention of capturing Li Zuoguo. However, seeing Li Zuoguo's lightning-like slash, Changsun Qing couldn't help but feel his heart tremble. Li Zuoguo came straight towards him, but Changsun couldn't help it.  Qing dodged, but Changsun Qing bravely used his Changshan, and stabbed Li Zuoguo in the chest first.

    Li Zuoguo sat down on his horse. Heiyun had been cooperating with Li Zuoguo for a long time, and immediately slowed down a little. This slowdown made Sun Qing's thrust awkward. His arms had been straightened, and the castration was exhausted, but the result was not touched yet.  Li Zuoguo was half a meter away. Logically speaking, Changsun Qing would not make such a mistake, but Changsun Qing inexplicably made such a ridiculous mistake. The reason was that Li Zuoguo had taken away Changsun Qing's momentum just now.

    Li Zuoguo gently raised the gun with his gun and hit the middle of the gun stand that Changsun Qing had set up. When he was hit in this posture, all the force was directly borne by Changsunqing's hands. Changsun QingWith a flick, Changsun Qing's long spear flew up into the sky, its mouth bloody and split open.

    As soon as Changsun Qing raised his head, Li Zuoguo was already close at hand with a joking look in his eyes. Changsun Qing immediately went to pull out the horizontal knife on his back. As soon as his hand touched the handle of the knife, he felt the armor belt around his waist tighten, and his whole body was tightened.  Li Zuoguo grabbed it with one hand and lifted it up. With his left hand, Li Zuoguo grabbed Changsun Qing, who was wearing armor weighing more than 200 kilograms. It was as easy as grabbing a bunch of straw. He gently shook it above his head and shook it a few times. Changsun Qing suddenly felt dizzy.  The drawn sword flew to no one knows where.

    Changsun Qing's soldiers rushed forward desperately to save their general. Li Zuoguo used the gun in his right hand to stab, chop, click, and sweep forward. Suddenly more than a dozen cavalrymen died under the gun, and they could not get in at all.  Li Zuoguo's body and the soldiers behind Li Zuoguo surged forward, immediately suppressing Changsun Qing's soldiers who were rushing over. Li Zuoguo threw Changsun Qing back in his hand, and Changsun Qing flew out like a cloud and mist.  "With a sound, his back fell to the ground, and he was so breathless from the fall that he was already tied up with his hands behind his back when he woke up.

    The capture of Changsun Qing made his subordinates panic. After their morale was hit, they were unable to withstand the attack of Li Zuoguo's soldiers. They were already at a disadvantage in all aspects, but now it was even worse. Changsun Chenghua was now surrounded and impenetrable.  The Anxi cavalry all knew that Li Zuoguo was going to rebel against the Tang Dynasty. Everyone wanted to win this battle, so they all moved forward bravely, hoping to capture or kill the general Changsun Chenghua.

    The five hundred soldiers around Changsun Chenghua decreased very quickly. The horses that lost their speed could only spin in circles. The Anxi cavalry stepped forward and killed them layer by layer under the horses. The crossbows shot an arrow from time to time, mixed with the force and heavy force.  The javelin, which can penetrate even heavy armor, often shoots Changsun Chenghua's soldiers through them. Changsun Chenghua's face turned deathly gray at this time, and he suddenly shouted: "I am the official of the imperial court, the former  Angels who came to deliver the message, you actually dare to attack me? This is rebellion, you actually dare to rebel?" As he said this, he wanted to rush forward, his mind seemed a little unconscious, but when he was most proud, he was suddenly attacked by the army.  If they were surrounded, they might not even be able to save their lives. Sun Chenghua, the elder, couldn't accept such a huge contrast.

    One of the guards around him saw Changsun Chenghua like this, grabbed his horse's rein and shouted: "Jiedushi, these Anxi people have rebelled. Our flag shows that we are the army of the Tang Dynasty. They are attacking."  Show no mercy and rush out. If you are stopped here again, you will die."

    Changsun Chenghua suddenly woke up, took the reins of his horse and said, "Where is Changsun Qing? We need to break out of the encirclement, rush forward, and kill to clear the way."

    When you are fighting on the battlefield, trying to identify the direction is just a dream. Experienced people will first aim for a direction and then adjust the direction until they rush out of the battlefield. It is not that Changsun Chenghua has no experience in the army, he immediately organized several of his men.  Hundreds of cavalry charged forward.

    In such a short period of time, there were only more than 300 people left around Sun Chenghua. The further he moved forward, the slower his attack became. Soon he could no longer attack. Sun Chenghua's soldiers fell one by one, and soon  Changsun Chenghua, who was about to be protected in the middle, saw the two cavalrymen in front of him suddenly fall to both sides. It turned out that both of them were cut in half. Before the bodies fell to the ground, a huge black gun-like weapon stabbed Changsun like lightning.  The last cavalryman in front of Chenghua was pierced, and the huge spear was slowly raised. The cavalryman on the tip of the spear was not dead yet. He screamed and reached out to grab the weapon on his chest, but the blood flowed down like a waterfall. Soon this man  The cavalryman lowered his hand, his body still twitching, and it was his last struggle before death.

    Changsun Chenghua saw a majestic black horse appear in his horrified eyes. Together with the majestic body of the horse, Changsun Chenghua's entire sight was occupied. The knight's hand shook slightly, and the body on the tip of the spear was thrown to the ground.  , the blood dropped on the tip of the swung spear, and drops of blood fell on the ground. The cavalry general turned his head and looked at Changsun Chenghua, and pulled off the visor on his face. This was a brave and resolute young face.

    Li Zuoguo's eyes were full of anger. He looked at the eldest son Chenghua and said, "This is the first time we have met. I am Li Zuoguo, the son of Li Siye. Do you want to kill me? Go to hell now. I will collect some interest for my father."

    He raised the Bawang Kuaitu spear in his hand and stabbed Changsun Chenghua in the chest. Two cavalrymen came out from behind Changsun Chenghua and used the horizontal swords in their hands to fight against Li Zuoguo's weapon. One of the cavalrymen shouted: "My lord, hurry up."

    Changsun Chenghua looked around and saw that there were only about twenty cavalrymen left, most of them wounded. In such a blink of an eye, five more cavalrymen were knocked off their horses. These soldiers were already very good. In this situation  In such a desperate situation, everyone fought to the death, no one begged for mercy, no one surrendered. It can be seen that Changsun Qing and Changsun Chenghua were usually very good to these soldiers and won their hearts.

    Changsun Chenghua knew that this would only lead to death, so he shouted: "Stop, don't fight."Come on, stop, I surrender, don't kill.  "

    As he spoke, Changsun Chenghua threw away the horizontal sword in his hand. The soldiers around him took a look and threw the weapons in front of their horses. Li Zuoguo's soldiers stopped attacking. They did not bother to kill the unarmed enemy. At this time, Changsun  Only then did Chenghua see that his two soldiers who were blocking Li Zuoguo had fallen to the ground, and even their horses were dead in a pool of blood. Li Zuoguo saw that the eldest son Chenghua had surrendered, turned the weapon in his hand upside down, and inserted it into the holster of the horse.  The left and right orders: "Catch them all, don't kill them all."

    As the surrender of Changsun Chenghua spread on the battlefield, his cavalrymen dropped their weapons and surrendered. But five thousand versus two thousand, both sides were cavalry. In such a short period of time, only more than 300 of Changsun Chenghua's cavalry survived.  After they fell, there were still two hundred people injured. However, less than two hundred of Li Zuoguo's cavalry were killed and more than a hundred were injured. This disproportionate number of casualties was compared to the tied up Changsun Chenghua and Changsun Qing.  It's just unbelievable.

    But the two of them looked up at the battlefield. All they could see were the corpses of their own cavalrymen who died in battle. The ownerless horses were neighing in grief. The corpses of more than a thousand horses covered almost a mile in radius. Li Zuoguo's cavalry had already formed a formation. In the distance,  An infantry formation has appeared and is marching this way. Changsun Chenghua knows that Li Zuoguo will definitely bear the brunt of sending troops to Longyou Road this time, but now he is a prisoner. What's more, the battle just now also made Changsun Chenghua know the strength of the Anxi Army.  This is a kind of comprehensive and overwhelming power. My own soldiers can be said to be the strongest army in the two towns of Longyou and Hexi. They can do one to four against the standing Tang army on Longyou Road. I didn't expect to face Li Zuoguo's Anxi cavalry.  This is the result after the first battle. So when the Anxi Army reaches Longyou and Hexi, which army can stop these powerful Anxi Army?

    Changsun Chenghua lowered his head, thinking in his mind that the Anxi Army seemed too powerful, and it was completely irresistible to fight against it. His life and death now depended on Li Zuoguo's thoughts. Changsun Chenghua didn't want to die yet, he wanted to keep his  He wanted to save his life and his family. With a determined look in his eyes, the eldest son Chenghua opened his mouth and shouted: "I want to see your general Li Zuoguo. I am the governor of Longyou Road and Hexi Road. I can make your Anxi army unstoppable."  Blade Blood will get these two."

    Changsun Chenghua was taken away in the surprised eyes of Changsun Qing. Then Changsun Chenghua came back and asked Changsun Qing if he would still be with him.  Changsun Qing nodded in agreement, so he was released and given horses, weapons and armor.

    With the help of Changsun Chenghua, it only took one and a half months. On the third day of the first lunar month of the fifteenth year of Tianbao, Li Zuoguo led an army to occupy Liangzhou, the capital of Longyou Road. The prefectures and counties along the way basically surrendered. On the first day of the first lunar month of the same year, Anlu Mountain  After proclaiming himself emperor in Luoyang, one from the east and one from the west formed a pincer attack on Chang'an, which shocked the world.
