Flying Clouds in Another World

Chapter 331: Fame on Wangchen Slope (Part )

If Han Sheng's Fansheng Cavalry was a real cavalry! Or if Han Sheng dared to take the lead in attacking the crossbow cavalry, he might not be unable to win in the melee with his numerical advantage.

At this time, he still had more than 10,000 cavalrymen on the top of the slope.

But he was afraid! His men were also afraid! Not many of them dared to charge at the crossbow cavalry.

The few hundred cavalrymen were instantly shot off their horses by iron arrows.

In fact, it is no wonder that the soldiers of Fansheng Cavalry did not dare to charge forward. Their armor rate was really too low, less than 10%!

Without the protection of armor, attacking the crossbow cavalry is no different from committing suicide.

But most people don't attack the crossbow cavalry, which will only make them die faster.

After two more waves of crossbow attacks, only less than half of Fansheng's cavalry on the top of the slope remained, about five or six thousand people.

Most of those who disappeared were shot down by the crossbow cavalry, and a small number escaped from the top of the slope.

Even Han Sheng himself rushed down

Top of the slope.

This time there was no one to block his escape to the south, because in front of him, many of his soldiers were also fleeing down the slope desperately to the south.

At the bottom of the slope, in two large clouds of dust, there was no telling how many enemy soldiers were shooting their own subordinates with bows and arrows!

"Ambush!? Could it be that I have fallen into a trap?"

Han Sheng seemed to have forgotten the two so-called "ruined soldiers" of the Zhenhuang Army whom he had allowed to escape earlier!

He just thought that this was an ambush arranged in advance by Liu Feiyun.

At this moment, his mind was already in a mess!

After firing three rounds of arrows, the Crossbow Cavalry Brigade launched a real charge. Wherever they went, people and horses fell to the ground!

Soon, the crossbow cavalry brigade also rushed down the top of the slope and went down.

After the crossbow cavalry brigade passed by, only two or three thousand soldiers were left on the top of the slope.

At this time, Liu Feiyun personally led two or three thousand cavalrymen who had slightly recovered their physical strength and horsepower, and launched the third wave of charge.

Although there were fewer people this time than the previous two times, their fighting power was not reduced at all, because among this group of people were the most elite personal guards in the entire Zhenhuang Army.

Select the most brave and skilled soldiers, equip them with the best weapons and horses, give them the most rigorous training, and at the same time give them the most generous treatment.

It can be said that this personal guard camp named Yunhu Camp by Liu Feiyun was built completely in accordance with the standards of his Liu family's Tiger Power Iron Guard.

The chief and deputy commanders of the Yunhu Camp were the Tiemu brothers, who never rode war horses. It was not that they did not want to ride horses, but there were no suitable war horses for them to ride.

In fact, it was not just the two of them. Even their wives, Cuihua and Suanzao, had always fought on foot.

However, when the four of them ran, they were not much slower than the horses.

The Yunhu Camp, together with the three cultivators beside Liu Feiyun, formed the plow blade of a huge iron plow, driving the two thousand cavalrymen behind them to plow fiercely towards the remnants of the army on the top of Wangchen Slope.

When Liu Feiyun led his troops to rush down the top of the hill, there were not many soldiers of the Fansheng Cavalry still on horseback on the top of the hill.

At this time, the infantry of the Crossbow Brigade, holding spears, swords, and crossbows, slowly pressed forward and began to clean up the mess.

The so-called cleaning up the mess means rescuing our own wounded and killing the remaining enemies. Anyone who dares to resist or is suspected of wanting to resist must be killed without mercy!

Soon, the hundreds of Fansheng cavalry soldiers remaining on the top of the hill were either killed or captured.

By the time the crossbow brigade pressed down from the top of the slope, the battle on Wangchen Slope had already been settled!

Under the three waves of attacks from the Zhenhuang Army, the formation of the Fansheng Cavalry had already been shattered!

The entire slope of Wangchenpo was littered with corpses and wounded soldiers of Fansheng's cavalry.

At this time, the battlefield had already moved from Wangchen Slope to the woods on the south side of the slope.

In the woods, the main force of the Zhenhuang Army was still chasing the remnants of Fansheng Cavalry.

The two sides fought fiercely until the evening, when the Zhenhuang Army stopped pursuing them.

After this battle, of the 50,000 victorious cavalry, only less than 10,000 escaped, most of whom were Qiang cavalry.

However, Han Sheng himself failed to escape and was eventually beheaded by Shi Mingchi.

As for the casualties of the Zhenhuang Army, there were probably several thousand people, but there were not many deaths or serious injuries, and most of them were slightly injured.

Liu Feiyun did not pursue the victory. Instead, he ordered the troops to set up camp and deal with post-war matters. At the same time, he sent people to deliver letters to the surrounding county governments, requesting them to send support.

When the Qiang cavalry of Fansheng Cavalry rushed to the city of Hanchuan at night without sparing their horses, they immediately caused a huge commotion.

"The Fansheng Cavalry was defeated!?"

"Han Sheng, the commander of the Han Mansion, is not known whether he is alive or dead, and his whereabouts are unknown!?"

"The little butcher is leading the wasteland suppression army to attack us!?"

"What should we do now? Should we continue to attack the city, or withdraw immediately?"

The barefoot soldiers were thrown into chaos and argued with each other for a long time, but could not come to a conclusion.

But just as they were arguing, another group of people came to attack.

When they saw the enemy coming with the flag of the Zhenhuang Army held high, the Qiang cavalry, who had already become frightened birds, immediately abandoned more than 200,000 infantrymen and fled south in panic.

However, the nearly 200-mile escape had already exhausted both the horses and the men of the Qiang cavalry.

The short rest did not allow them to recover much, and when they fled again, they were soon caught up by the Zhenhuang Army.

They only felt that the Zhenhuang Army was chasing them everywhere, and there was murderous intent everywhere.

In order to escape, they abandoned everything they could in exchange for even the slightest speed advantage.

In the end, these Qiang cavalrymen abandoned their weapons and armor along the way, and only two or three thousand of them escaped from the territory of Hanchuan Prefecture. The rest were either killed or captured.

After the Qiang cavalry fled, the remaining barefoot infantrymen naturally fell into chaos.

They also wanted to escape, but unfortunately, a two-legged person could not be faster than a four-legged horse.

The cavalry of the Zhenhuang Army did not actively attack the camp of the barefoot infantry, but only attacked those teams that tried to escape.

Cavalry has a natural advantage over infantry.

If well-trained infantry were arranged in tight formations, on suitable terrain, equipped with suitable weapons and armor, and using suitable tactics, they would not be unable to compete with cavalry.

But most of these so-called infantrymen under Hanchuan City were just civilians a few months ago. Not to mention proper military training, they had barely touched weapons, let alone any organizational discipline.

It is a fantasy to ask them to confront the cavalry head-on, and it is almost impossible for them to escape from the pursuit of the cavalry.

They were like a flock of sheep trapped by a sheepdog. Although they kept rushing left and right, they were still unable to break through the blockade of the Zhenhuang Army cavalry and escape.

They were terrified!

But what they didn't know was that the young general Qin Jiu, who commanded the Zhenhuang Army, was also terrified at this time.
