Section 162 Snow Man Bow Knife (8)
The snow on the ground was rolled up by a violent explosion, and the wind and snow were blowing. With the rushing of the ground, the Turkic array seemed to have thunder, as if thunder was falling into the Turkic array. The sound of war horses neighing was drowned, the warriors' deathly neighing horns were drowned, and the screams of Turkic generals tearing their throats were drowned.
Amid the explosion, all sounds were instantly drowned by the violent explosion.
Since the hot air balloons in the sky had already stopped above the Turkic army formation, the area of the gunpowder packs poured out was quite large. In the depth of the Turkic cavalry, black smoke rumbled, and flames ejected from the dense array of cavalry. The flesh and blood were swept up by the sound of explosion, and blood splattered. The broken limbs and broken bodies rolled up by the explosion flew freely in the air.
In a blink of an eye, the Turkic soldiers who had just advanced could no longer move forward. The gods they had just believed in did not bring them any good luck. They were covered by the heavy smoke of the explosion of gunpowder, and the strong bloody and burnt smell of flesh were swept up by the wind and drifted out.
The screams and painful roars suddenly rang out of the soldiers' array, but they could not be heard. The rumbling explosion drowned everything. The flames soared into the air in the center of the gunpowder explosion, and the black smoke instantly made people unable to see the scene around them. The violent explosion made the cavalry's eardrums buzzing in an instant, and some people's ear holes were flowing out of winding blood.
The power of gunpowder explosion is not too great. In the central area, the damage of Turkic cavalry is not very large. What's more, the Turkic cavalry array is like an ocean, and the direct damage of gunpowder explosion to them is not obvious at all, and it is not even better than the shooting effect of war crossbows and longbows.
However, due to the violent explosion, the war horses were already frightened at this time. The frightened war horses took the horse's hoof, and the cavalry could not command their frightened war horses at all. One or two war horses were frightened and even more than one hundred thousand war horses fled in scattered due to the violent explosion. Such a scene was almost a nightmare for the cavalry.
The thick smoke had not yet dissipated, and the blast of explosions had already made the Turkish team chaotic. The frightened war horses collided everywhere. Before they approached Liangzhou City, the Turkic cavalry had trampled on each other. The frightened war horses did not care what they were in front of them. They stepped on the horse's hooves and rushed forward. At this time, the Turkic team was like ants in a mess, ramming war horses, Turkic soldiers who were thrown off their horses by the war horses, the wounded wounded by gunpowder and the injured horses were mixed together. The Turkic generals could not command their own team at this time. The chaotic team collided in disorder, and the people and horses trampled on each other.
Just when the Turkic cavalry team was in chaos, the sound of drums that shook the sky from Liangzhou City. With the sound of drums, the cavalry roared out from the north gate of Liangzhou. Teams of cavalry rushed into the battlefield with smoke and dust in the grassland. The cavalry on the horse held long spears, and the dense formations stabbed into the chaotic Turkic team like a spear. As soon as the Turkic soldiers heard the drums, they ushered in the rush of Liangzhou cavalry.
When the troops were fighting in close combat, the chaotic Turkic cavalry could not organize defense for a while. The frightened horses had long left the Turkic team in a mess. The people who were trampled to death by their own horses were several times more dead and injured than the people who were killed and injured just now.
At this time, although the explosion had stopped, the chaotic team was rushed by the opponent, making it even more chaotic. Moreover, after Liu Shan's team rushed into the Turkic queue, all the cavalry wanted to kill the Turkic soldiers around. For a moment, the blood splattered in the place where the cavalry passed by, and the broken limbs pounced on the ground. They were stepped by the horse's iron hooves, and the blood mixed with flesh and blood mixed together. The blood that had just spurted out from the body evaporated white air, melting the snow on the ground instantly. For a moment, the blood spread around the cavalry in the snow instantly. After melting the snow, the blood mixed with the snow water flowed across the ground. In the low-lying places, the blood gathered together and accumulated pools of blood.
The Tang cavalry did not stop at all. When the spear was broken, it pulled out its sword. The sharp sword light flashed by. The Turkic soldiers in front of them were chopped and killed by the sword. The Tang cavalry team instantly wedged into the Turkic military formation like a wedge. Wherever the wedge went, it stirred up bloody storms. The chaotic Turkic cavalry could not stop the impact of the Tang cavalry. Teams of chaotic Turkic soldiers were cut into piles of corpses on the ground by the Tang cavalry.
The Turkic team was in chaos and was killed by the ready-to-run Tang cavalry. Suddenly, the Turkic soldiers, who were frightened by the explosion and slashing, began to collapse. The Turkic soldiers began to rush towards their own people. The cavalry activated the war horses, and those who lost the war horses ran away with their legs.
The Tang cavalry chased the Turks with a long sword and slashed hard. The long sword was pressed against the back of the Turks. The sharp blade instantly cut the flesh and blood. Even if the long sword forged by the skilled sword was cut on the bone, it instantly cut off the hard bones.
There were corpses everywhere on the ground, and blood had already formed a stream and flowed towards the low-lying places. The subsequent cavalry horse hooves advanced along the muddy blood. The horse hooves were raised and blood splashed everywhere.
A Turkic soldier who was dismantled from his horse was removed and fell into a pool of blood. He was about to use his only arm to support himself and stand up. The horse hooves behind him stepped on his back. Under the iron hooves, the flesh and blood body was trampled to make a sound of broken bones that made people sore. The cavalryman sprayed a mouthful of blood from his mouth, and fell into a pool of blood, sobbing his body. The subsequent cavalry horse hooves stepped by. He sucked his body for a few times and was completely dead.
At this time, the head of the Tang cavalry was deeply embedded in the Turkic team. The head of the Tang cavalry was splashed with blood and rain. The Tang cavalry was like a bloody Shura evil. The cloth clothes on the cavalry were soaked in blood, and the cloth clothes were covered with fragments of minced meat and internal organs. On the long sword in the hands, blood flowed down the blade. The long swords forged by the steel had already had many gaps. Some soldiers' long swords had been cut off. They picked up the weapons of the killed Turkic soldiers, and they slashed behind the defeated Turkic soldiers.
At this time, a dramatic scene occurred on the battlefield. More than 20,000 Tang cavalry rushed more than 100,000 Turks to retreat, and the retreating Turkic soldiers seemed like a frenzy. Some Turks also wanted to organize resistance. Several teams gathered together to try to block the opponent's impact, but under the impact of the Tang cavalry, the power of these blocking was not enough. Even if the Tang cavalry did not rush in, they would collapse on their own.
On the battlefield, the Turkic soldiers were everywhere for a while. Because there were too many war horses that were frightened, there were too many infantrymen running away with their feet. They were caught up by the Tang cavalry, and under the sword, the corpses on the ground lay a layer.
The Turkic team collapsed, and the collapsed team trampled down their camp tents and destroyed their reserve troops. In the Turkic camp, the Tang cavalry chased their opponents, and many grassland soldiers were chased by war horses and breathed white breath. Many people fell to the ground while running and could no longer get up. More people threw down their weapons, knelt on the ground, and surrendered to the Tang cavalry.
At this time, the howling Tang cavalry had no time to pay attention to the surrendered soldiers. Teams of cavalry were chasing the collapsed Turkic team. Behind the cavalry, the bodies covered the northern part of Liangzhou, and the mountains were filled with the bodies of the retreating Turkic soldiers.
The blood drowned the earth, and the corpses were spread all over the mountains and fields in the desolate northern part of Liangzhou. The white earth was still white last night, but it had turned into a bright red color at this time.
