Although the Xia Wang Army had already formed a dense formation to deal with the cavalry at this time, unfortunately, they were still one step late. When Liu Shan discovered the movements of the Xia Wang Army, he began to fight back. It has to be said that Liu Shan's grasp of the timing was very accurate. When the Xia Wang's army was about to drive in front of the Liangzhou Army camp but had not yet entered the offensive formation, the cavalry led by Liu Shan was only half-moon in the shape of a formation.

When the advancing Xia Wang Army received an order to gather urgently and return to defense intensified, they were actually one step too late. This is really not the fault of the generals of the Xia Wang Army. They were used to fighting with the heads of the Central Plains Army, such as Zheng and Qin, and were used to the rhythm of infantry and cavalry melee. They had almost no experience in fighting with pure cavalry. Although they could learn and learn from various previous battle examples, there were not many examples of infantry fighting against pure cavalry in Chinese history, and most of them were against grassland soldiers. They had no experience in fighting against pure cavalry, and in addition, there were few cases of reference in previous battle examples. At the beginning, underestimating the enemy also made the Xia Wang Army enter a situation of advancing and retreating.

Therefore, in terms of rhythm, they were still one step slower. When the Xia Wang army began to assemble and set up the formation, Liu Shan's Liangzhou cavalry had already advanced at full speed. Under the rolling iron hooves, the ground was stomping, and the ground seemed to be shaking at the feet of the infantry. Inside the line of sight, the black tide was accompanied by the sharp edge of the spear, rushing towards the infantry's formation like a rush.

The infantry arrays in front were too late to return to defense. Several infantry arrays hurriedly laid their positions on the spot, stretching their dense spears forward, soldiers fixed their spears to the ground with both hands, and the infantry behind extended another layer of spears forward. Several layers of spears formed a jungle-like spear array on the road of cavalry. This is the most basic infantry array to deal with cavalry, and long weapons are used to form a dense formation against cavalry.

The iron cavalry rolled, and the ground under his feet was trembling more and more violently. A loud bang came from the soldiers' ears. As the cavalry got closer and closer, the earth seemed to have an earthquake.

Five hundred meters, four hundred meters in the front row of infantry were already holding the spear, staring at the front without blinking, and staring at the torrent of cavalry that was charging closer and closer.

They are worthy of being soldiers from Hebei. Even when facing the wild tide of cavalry charge, they did not have any fear or retreat. They just stared at the rushing cavalry. Just waited for the cavalry to approach, all the spears and spears would be stabbed out instantly, stabbing the galloping war horses and the cavalry on their horses into hedgehogs.

However, they were wrong. Liu Shan's cavalry was definitely not the cavalry in the traditional sense. Just as the cavalry was rushing in, a slight buzzing sound suddenly sounded from the cavalry array. The buzzing sound was mixed with the neighing sound of war horses, mixed with the trampling sound of the iron hooves of war horses, and mixed with the roar of war soldiers. The buzzing sound was so small that even people on the battlefield could not hear the sound. However, after the buzzing sound was released, thousands of crossbow arrows shot out from the cavalry team. In front of the crossbow arrows that were like rain, King Xia's army instantly became an unobstructed target.

In just an instant, the sound of crossbow arrows entering the flesh sounded on the heads of the two armies. With the sound of howling, soldiers holding spears fell to the ground in an instant, and the people who were shot to death struggled and moaned in the military formation. Blood and tears flowed out from the terrifying wounds caused by the three-edged arrow holes. Many people's bodies were penetrated by powerful crossbow arrows. There were no crossbow arrows on their bodies, and only the holes were sprayed out blood. Some soldiers' blood dyed the armor red in an instant, and the soldiers watched the bright blood lines of their chests or abdomen burst out with their hands to block them. The blood instantly dyed their hands red, and the blood sprayed out from the fingers, splashing all over their eyes.

In the moment of howling, struggling, and roaring, the Xia Wangjun army, which had just been defending tightly, was in a mess, and a distance of 100 meters was only a few breaths for the fast-moving cavalry. As the moan sounded, the cavalry holding a spear rushed into the chaotic Xia Wangjun army. Under the powerful stabbing of the spear, the soldiers who had just escaped the crossbow arrow shot immediately became corpses under the spear.

It was also at this time that the Liangzhou Army also saw the strength of the Hebei Army and the fear of life and death.

A Liangzhou cavalry had just stabbed a Hebei swordsman in the chest with a long spear. Blood was flowing from the other party's mouth, and the bloodline overflowed from the corner of his lips. The other party seemed to have not noticed his injuries at all, and still rushed towards the cavalry, allowing the gun to pass through his chest wound. The cavalry on the horse seemed to hear the terrifying sound of the gun rubbing against the ribs. The Hebei soldier smiled grimly, raised the knife in his hand and chopped off the Liangzhou cavalry on his horse with a knife.

The arm of a Hebei soldier with a knife was removed by a cavalry with a long knife. Before the Liangzhou cavalry could retract the long sword stained with blood, the Hebei soldier whose arm was removed used a shield to knock the cavalry and his men and horses to the ground. Then he used an iron shield to hit the opponent's head with a steel helmet.

Although the Hebei soldiers had no advantage in numbers and equipment, they were extremely brave in resisting. For the cavalry led by Liu Shan, these infantry used their lives to block, fill and fight. Blood flowers kept flashing on the battle formation. The cavalry was marching, and blood was stormed by the horse's hooves. The Hebei soldiers who fell seriously injured were trampled by the horse's hooves. They actually hugged the iron hooves of the war horse with their hands, allowing the iron hooves to step on his chest again and again.

Liu Shan rushed to the front of the team and entered the Hebei soldiers' team. He was also deeply shocked by the soldiers he met in front of him. Liu Shan did not expect that as soon as he joined the formation, he encountered such a fierce resistance from his opponent. It seemed that it was not bad at all. The soldiers of King Xia were indeed extremely powerful. Liu Shan had no idea that many Hebei soldiers died under his sword. Liu Shan's arm armor was already covered with blood, and the long sword in his hand was bleeding. Just now, he had just chopped a Hebei soldier. He still remembered that the opponent finally hugged his blade with both hands. The sharp blade instantly cut off his ten fingers. Just when the broken finger fell in front of Liu Shan, Liu Shan's knife had already cut through his throat. Such an opponent deserves Liu Shan's respect.
