Five thousand soldiers were like mountains.
When Wu Qi was selecting the 5,000 soldiers, he had a passing requirement, which was that each of them had to be able to lift a grindstone.
Among the soldiers, everyone was as strong as an ox. Each of them could carry hundreds of pounds of weight and cross mountains.
During training, Wuqi was even more merciless. It was not that there were no soldiers who were killed by training.
Therefore, these five thousand soldiers were not ordinary soldiers. They could not be understood and treated with the ideology of ordinary soldiers.
On the battlefield.
Wuqi's formation was not an ordinary formation. This time, the soldiers carried iron shields that were nearly the height of a person. The shields were connected in front and behind, left and right.
When facing the cavalry charge, the force would be deflected to both sides through the point of the front shield, and there was still a shield behind as support, forming a firm triangular structure.
The shields at the back were connected by a second row of shields, and the second row was connected by a third row of shields.
Between the shields, there were spearmen stabbing, sabermen chopping off the horse's legs, archers firing cold arrows, and shieldmen covering each other and cooperating with each other.
It sounded simple, but the situation on the battlefield was quite tragic.
Under the charge of the cavalrymen, many of the soldiers who were holding onto their shields had started to bleed from their noses. Although many of the soldiers couldn't be seen on the outside, their bodies had suffered significant internal injuries.
If it were any other ordinary soldier, they would have been killed on the spot.
The spearmen continued to stab at the Donghu cavalrymen, and all the soldiers 'palms were bleeding. Some of them were even shot to death by the arrows.
Every time the first row of shields was broken, the second row of shieldmen would immediately fill the gap and firmly block the Donghu cavalrymen.
Some of the Donghu cavalrymen tried to bypass the shieldmen in the front row, but when they ran through the gaps, their legs would be cut by the sabers, and they would fall to the ground and be stabbed to death.
When the cavalrymen saw this, they all took out cloths and covered their warhorses 'eyes to prevent them from losing control and retreating, causing even greater losses.
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The warhorses crashed into the iron shields one after another, causing blood to splatter on the spot. The huge impact also caused the soldiers behind the shields to spit out blood.
"Hold on!"
"Stab!"
Spears pierced out, and some cavalrymen who tried to get past the iron shields were immediately stabbed off their horses.
Corpses were laid on the ground layer after layer, and the thick smell of blood filled the air. The sound of killing shook the sky, and a brutal battle was unfolding under the setting sun.
The iron shield was dyed red, and scarlet blood began to gather under his feet.
When Wuqi saw this scene, his gaze was sharp and murderous. Many soldiers had already died, but this was an inevitable sacrifice.
Countless corpses had been trampled into minced meat by the cavalry, and the first layer of defense was already on the verge of collapse. It was clear that it could not hold on for much longer.
The sun gradually set, and the sky began to darken.
Chu Chi was wearing a Kylin armor and holding the Hegemon Breaking Formation Halberd. He sat on a black steed and looked at the dark sky.
"It's almost time. Everyone, get ready! Charge!"
With this order, the eight thousand Black Knights charged forward like a black tide. Only the sound of their hooves could be heard.
Not long after, the figures of the Donghu cavalry appeared in front of Chu Chi. He glanced at the battlefield not far away. The soldiers led by Wuqi were still stubbornly rooted to the ground.
Chu Chi took a look, then turned to the Donghu cavalrymen with a cold gaze and said,"" Everyone, charge!"
"Hail!"
"Hail!"
"Hail!"
Rumble!
The sound of hooves was like thunder. The Donghu soldiers not far away had also discovered this group of black cavalry that had suddenly appeared, so they hurriedly split up to block them.
Chu Chi took the lead. Looking at the charging Donghu cavalry, the killing intent in his eyes skyrocketed."Die!"
With a furious roar, Chu Chi waved his Formation-Breaking Halberd and cut the rider and horse in half. The scene was extremely bloody and brutal.
Like a ferocious tiger charging into a flock of sheep, Chu Chi did not slow down at all. He brandished his Formation-Breaking Halberd, and wherever he went, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and broken limbs were cut off. All the Donghu soldiers he touched died rather miserably.
The Black Knights following behind Chu Chi were also valiant. Facing the ferocious Eastern Hu cavalry, not only were they not afraid, but they were even able to firmly gain the upper hand. Their combat strength was quite strong.
Chu Chi didn't care about the heads he had killed, but his eyes were fixed on the flag in the middle of the army.
"Stop them!"
Seeing Chu Chi leading thousands of cavalry, Hu Kecha quickly ordered his subordinates to stop him.
Thousands of cavalry rushed over. Chu Chi was not afraid at all. He saw two Donghu cavalrymen holding iron chains in their hands charging at him.
Chu Chi snorted coldly. When the two sides got close, the two Donghu cavalrymen had already pulled up the iron chain, ready to trip him off the horse.
"Get lost!"
Chu Chi exerted strength in both arms, and the Formation-Breaking Halberd swept across like the wind, instantly cutting the cavalryman on the right in half. His left hand grabbed the iron chain and dragged the cavalryman on the other side off his horse.
The Donghu cavalryman who had fallen off his horse had already been trampled into a meat paste by the Black Knights behind him.
