It could be said that the War Saint of West Chu, Ye Baikui, had pushed the cruelty of large-scale warfare to a peak. Thus, Chen Zhibao had divided the war into the shoulders of every junior captain.
Not only did he remember the names of every captain under his command, he even knew their personality and leadership style, as well as their combined strength under normal circumstances and their potential in unexpected situations.
"In ancient times, military experts liked to describe the unpredictability of war as ever-changing. Chen Zhibao had long memorized 'ever-changing' in his heart. He is fully deserving of the title of the number one strategist in the history of the Qin Dynasty, far surpassing his predecessors and peers. "
Any Jiangnan scholar who had read a few military books and admired the elegant demeanor of the White Clothed War Saint would be able to say this kind of overflowing praise that sounded common.
But in reality, the person who said these words was Cao Changqing, Cao Qingyi, who was publicly recognized as invincible in chess.
Liuzhou did not hear the cries of the horns or the war drums.
Just like that, people died in a hurried battle.
The two rounds of long-range shooting by the Qiang cavalry were expected to achieve merit, but the magnitude of the merit surprised the Qiang cavalry.
When an arrow accurately nailed into the face of a Dragon Elephant Light Cavalryman, this cavalryman's head was immediately pulled back by the powerful arrow, and then he fell off his horse and died.
The ownerless warhorse continued to charge forward.
Many of the Qiang cavalry cheered.
The arrowhead of a Qiang arrow struck the breastplate of a Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry soldier, creating a string of sparks, but it did not pierce through. However, this Northern Liang Border Army soldier's luck was truly terrible. His warhorse was struck in the neck by another extremely powerful arrow through the gap in the armor. The horse neighed, tilted slightly, and crashed into the ground.
The light cavalryman who had rolled away quickly stood up. His arm that was holding the spear had been broken, but without his spear, he quickly pulled out the cold saber at his waist. He faced the Qiang cavalrymen who were only twenty steps away from him and began to run in a straight line!
Ke E felt a bone-deep sense of powerlessness. It wasn't just because the two rounds of arrow rain only brought less than a hundred casualties to the Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry, it was also because even though the enemy cavalry could clearly use their spears to deflect the incoming arrows, not a single one of them did such a thing that would damage the impact of the spear!
Not a single one!
The two armies suddenly charged out, and it was hard to tell whether the enemy was dead or alive.
The young chiliarch's recklessness had brought disaster to the 1600 cavalry that he and his clan had painstakingly gathered over the past 20 years.
Even if the Qiang cavalry saw that the situation was not good, the front line facing them started to move to the left, hoping to use the speed of the Qiang cavalry to reduce the losses on the battlefield.
The vanguard of the Qiang cavalry moved slightly to the left.
However, the Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry reacted in an instant, charging to the right as a whole. The thunderous hooves of the horses did not decrease in the slightest!
The rapid changes on the battlefront were actually not much when it was divided between two enemy cavalry positions.
The Long Xiang Army and the Qiang cavalry were embedded in each other's formation!
In the blink of an eye, more than three hundred Qiang cavalrymen were pierced through by spears! These Qiang warriors were all dead before they could even get off the back of their horses!
Among them, dozens of Qiang cavalry corpses were lifted into the air by the Dragon Elephant Iron Spear.
The line that symbolized life and death was filled with the blood of the Qiang cavalry.
There were some lucky Qiang warriors who managed to dodge the spears of the first row of Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry, but the spears behind them quickly pierced a hole in their bodies.
Some of the luckier ones who managed to survive were instantly killed by the third row of Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry, even if they managed to survive the second row of Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry.
One of the Qiang cavalrymen had just had his shoulder pierced by the second Dragon Elephant light cavalry. He swayed, and before he had time to rejoice, a third iron spear pierced through his neck. His corpse fell backwards, sliding a short distance on the horse's back before finally falling dead on the sand.
The deputy general of the Long Xiang Army, Wang Lingbao, directly shot out three candied haws.
This charge.
The Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry easily pierced through the window like a heavy hammer.
Scarface and Wang Lingbao lightly shook their wrists, sending the three Qiang cavalrymen off the iron spear. They did not turn around to observe the battlefield, not even looking at the corpses on the ground. They continued to charge forward.
They were not far from the second Qiang cavalry.
Behind Wang Lingbao, the ground was covered in Qiang cavalry corpses and blood.
Many of the Qiang cavalry horses that had fallen off their horses slowly came to a stop after running for a short distance.
The three hundred injured Long Xiang Army cavalrymen raised their blades and stabbed the surviving Qiang cavalrymen.
Some of the Qiang cavalrymen spoke in a language that the Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry did not understand. They were probably begging for mercy, but none of them showed any mercy.
Ever since the general led the hundred cavalrymen out of Liaodong, the Xu family cavalry did not have the habit of taking captives in.
Apart from the forty at the two ends of the sixteen hundred Qiang cavalrymen, the rest of the Qiang cavalry were all killed by the three thousand Dragon Elephant Light Cavalry.
The young chiliarch who had charged into Flow Province for the sake of revenge and for the sake of establishing himself also died after killing one person and assassinating two others.
