At the beginning, I gave up my military power with a cup of wine, and I ascended the throne
Chapter 392: Heavy Armored Cavalry Attacks
Chapter 392: Heavy Armored Cavalry Attacks
The reason why it was not taken out just now was because these thousands of heavily armored cavalry had only arrived two hours ago and were resting.
Even if one person rides two horses, the heavy cavalry is still not as fast as the light cavalry.
“charge.”
The heavily armored cavalry were at the front, with Hu Chi leading the way, holding a long sword, riding out on his horse, his whole body filled with murderous aura.
His cultivation level in the Zhixuan realm was clearly revealed, and he charged with thousands of heavily armored cavalry. At that moment, the sky and the earth changed color.
“Can’t leave.”
Seeing this scene, Helian Bobo smiled bitterly. He did not take any action because at this moment, an invisible force had already locked onto him.
That was the breath of Xiliang King Xiao Han. If Helian Bobo, the military god of the Northern Wei Dynasty, had any unusual movements.
The King of Xiliang would attack without hesitation, even though his cultivation had greatly improved after coming out of seclusion, he could still be in the clash of Xiao Han’s auras.
Helian Bobo did not have the slightest advantage. The man’s cultivation was too terrifying and unfathomable, like an abyss or an ocean with no end in sight.
“kill.”
One after another, martial arts masters rushed out from the Northern Wei army, soared into the air, and killed towards thousands of heavily armored cavalry.
“court death.”
However, the next moment, powerful auras rose from the Northern Wei camp, followed by terrifying figures.
They were all masters from the Academy and the Knife Grinding Hall. Their numbers directly crushed the Northern Wei masters. A life-and-death battle broke out between the two sides of warriors in the Osprey Gorge.
In the valley.
Thousands of heavily armored cavalry charged, followed by a large number of cavalrymen from behind.
Even though Helian Bobo had 200,000 men under his command, he could only barely hold back the Western Liang Army by relying on the geographical advantage.
Even though Xiao Han only had 100,000 men under his command, he dared to attack Helian Bobo head-on.
As for the remaining 150,000 troops, they took a detour from both wings and prepared to encircle Helian Bobo from the rear.
It was a dead end from the very beginning. Helian Bobo’s 200,000 troops were not elite troops. Facing the Xiliang cavalry that came and went like the wind, they could neither run away nor defeat them.
Staying in Yuying Gorge was just Helian Bobo’s last dying struggle. The only way to break the impasse was that at the beginning, Helian Bobo retreated to the Northern Wei Imperial City with only tens of thousands of elite troops.
However, doing so would be tantamount to giving up the remaining more than 100,000 soldiers.
Besides, there were only tens of thousands of people, plus the remnants of the Northern Wei imperial city, they could not defend the imperial city at all.
The final outcome is still the destruction of the city, it’s just a matter of time.
It was a dilemma. From the very beginning, Helian Bobo had no third choice, but no matter which choice he made.
The final outcome will not change at all, the Northern Wei Dynasty will definitely perish.
The Northern Wei Dynasty back then was a behemoth in front of the Western Liang Dynasty. Even in the Battle of Qimen Pass, the Western Liang army beheaded more than 100,000 people.
But when facing the Northern Wei, they could only be on the defensive.
And now.
Xiliang has become an unshakable mountain in front of the Northern Wei, and the national strength of the two countries is no longer on the same level.
Once Xiliang gains the advantage, the Northern Wei will face endless pressure.
The Queen of Northern Wei wanted to mobilize the elite troops of Northern Wei to fight a head-on battle with Xiliang. In her opinion, even if the situation could not be reversed, at least some damage should be inflicted on Xiliang, so as to give Northern Wei some breathing time.
Not only the Northern Wei empress had such thoughts in her mind, but everyone in the Northern Wei wanted to seize this opportunity.
As for the rumors spread by Xiao Han, they could only have a small destabilizing effect on an existence like the Northern Wei Empress.
It can even be said that the Northern Wei empress never believed this rumor, but no matter whether it was a trap or not, she had to step on it. If she stepped on it, she might have a chance to get something out of it, but if she ignored it, she really had no chance at all.
However, judging from the current results, the gap in strength between the two is too great, and the Northern Wei Dynasty has no chance at all.
It was extremely foolish to mobilize the main force to the front and seek a decisive battle with the main elite forces of the Xiliang Army.
There was a huge mistake in the initial combat strategy.
In addition, Murong Yan’s stupid behavior made him get beaten up by Liao Huan, so he retreated to Suizhou City with his 200,000 troops.
The originally viable game was turned into a completely dead one.
Although Helian Bobo is known as the military god of the Northern Wei Dynasty, it is not easy for him to remain loyal and survive.
In Osprey Gorge, the battle was still going on. Hundreds of thousands of troops from Northern Wei and Western Liang gathered in the narrow valley.
At every moment, countless Northern Wei soldiers and Western Liang soldiers died in battle, bows and crossbows were fired, and arrows rained down on the sky.
The valley shook, sand and rocks flew, the earth trembled, and the boiling blood gathered into streams, and blood splattered everywhere.
Thousands of Xiliang cavalrymen galloped wildly in the valley, both men and horses were wearing armor, and the dark armor radiated a cold light.

Long spears were sharp, flags were fluttering, the wind was blowing hard, and the dark banners were dancing gracefully.
“kill.”
Under the ferocious mask were a pair of cold eyes, a spear held horizontally, and the warhorse under him neighing.
Thousands of heavily armored cavalry are enough to stop tens of thousands of light cavalry in a frontal battlefield, but heavily armored cavalry are not invincible.
When facing an organized infantry formation, once the war horses in front are blocked, the heavy armored cavalry will completely lose its killing power.
Osprey Gorge is not actually suitable for a frontal charge by heavy cavalry, but if they want to quickly break through the Northern Wei’s front army, they must use this cavalry to fight their way out.
At the front, the burly Tiger Maniac was wearing three layers of heavy armor, holding a long and narrow saber in his hand. His eyes were fierce, and there was no fear in them, only a strong desire to fight.
The soldiers of Xiliang, from Shang to Xia, are best at charging into battle, beheading generals and capturing flags.
“boom”
He pulled the reins, and the warhorse under his crotch leaped up, spanning fifty or six feet, looking down from a high position, and rushed straight into the Northern Wei army formation.
“kill.”
The Northern Wei soldiers all raised their spears, swords and shields and stepped forward.
“Go away.”
Tiger Crazy roared, his voice like a dragon and a tiger, roaring with murderous aura, and swung the saber in his hand. Violent sword energy burst out and swept out. In an instant, the sword light fell into the Northern Wei formation.
“boom”
The sword light shattered, countless sword auras filled the air, broken limbs and arms flew everywhere, and the strong horse fell to the ground without any stopping.
He rode his horse into the Northern Wei army, waving the long sword in his hand, causing a blood rain all over the sky. Thousands of heavily armored cavalry followed behind Hu Chi, like a sharp long sword, fiercely stabbing into the heart of the Northern Wei army.
boom”
A huge hole was instantly torn in the front army’s formation, and dense iron armor followed closely behind the heavy cavalry.
“Pfft.”
The long sword swept past like cutting grass, and countless Northern Wei soldiers were reduced to ashes under the Western Liang cavalry.
Many people didn’t even have time to react before they were trampled into a mess by the horses’ hooves.
