"A barbarian army has been discovered twenty miles ahead. There are around ninety thousand of them!”
"After investigation, the one leading this army should be the leader of Tuo Buhua Tribe, Bu Ri Ge De!”
The Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun reported loudly, informing them of the military situation.
Li Yu narrowed his eyes and asked,""How is the terrain ahead? If our army continues to advance, will we be in favorable or unfavorable terrain when we come into contact with the enemy?”
The special cavalryman who came to report thought for a moment and replied,"The location of contact should be the Great Plains. The terrain advantage should be similar.”
Hearing this, Li Yu's lips curled up slightly.
"Go! Continue to block the information!"
"If possible, cut off the connection between this army and the main Turkic camp.”
"This king wants to see if I can eat them!”
The Eighteen Cavalry of Yan Yun's pupils shrank, and his throat rolled.
He opened his mouth to speak, but in the end, he did not say anything and left.
"This subordinate will obey!"
At this moment, Bai Qi's voice sounded.
"Your Highness, isn't it unrealistic for you to swallow these 90,000 cavalrymen?”
Even with the addition of the 10,000 heavy cavalrymen who had just joined in, their army only had 26,000 men!
The cavalry was also the main force, but 26,000 people swallowed 90,000 cavalry. Was this really possible?
"Do you think it's very difficult?" Li Yu chuckled and asked.”
"Could it be? Isn't that difficult?" Baiqi asked.
"You think it's difficult because you don't know the difference between a Heavy Cavalry and an ordinary Heavy Cavalry!" Li Yu said.”
"Do you see that fully armed 10,000 heavy cavalry?”
"That group of fellows can fight against five ordinary heavy cavalry, let alone the Turkic light cavalry.”
Wouldn't it be easy to use the top-tier soldiers of the cold weapon era to fight a group of barbarians who had yet to learn tactics?
Although the Turkic cavalry were wearing armor like the Western Liang cavalry, they were still in their prime.
However, there were differences between armors.
Most of the Turkic cavalry wore chainmail.
This kind of armor was used to block the slashes of knives and swords, as well as the spears of infantry. It still had a certain degree of defensive power.
However, in front of a cavalry charge, it was not enough.
In front of the cavalrymen who had already moved out, it didn't make much of a difference whether they wore chainmail or not.
It was nothing more than the difference between being stabbed through and killed.
People were going to die anyway. Why would they care about the details of whether the corpse would be pierced?
However, if the chain mail was replaced with plate armor, the situation would be completely different!
The one-piece plate armor could break the spear!
If they were not holding a divine weapon, they could forget about using a cold weapon to penetrate the defense of the plate armor.
Plate armor could defend against any weapon other than blunt weapons.
In the era of cold weapons, the plate armored heavy cavalry was like a tank.
It was unrealistic to ask a group of soldiers to dismantle a tank with their own hands!
"Anyway, just wait and see.”
"Don't look at how we're at a disadvantage in numbers, as long as we don't have a geographical disadvantage.”
"Those bastards who can swallow Tuo Buhua!”
Li Yu said confidently, full of confidence in his decision!
Bai Qi did not quite understand his explanation.
But seeing the strange light in Li Yu's eyes, he somehow believed it!
" Then this subordinate will wait and see…"
"Don't worry, we'll definitely win the next battle!"
……
A distance of twenty miles.
For the cavalry who were moving in the opposite direction, it was only half an hour's journey.
In the vast plains, the two armies met face to face.
Seeing the cavalry, Li Yu immediately gave the order.
"Charge!"
"Western Liang's cavalry is in front!"
"The Golden Fire Cavalry and the Emperor's Imperial Guards will protect the two wings.”
"The Guanning Cavalry will follow behind the Western Liang Cavalry and wait for an opportunity to strike!”
"White Horse Servant and Vengeful Asura, move freely!”
……
After a series of orders, the cavalry army that was already prepared immediately began to move.
On the other hand, Tuo Buhua did not even know that the two armies were about to meet due to the lack of reinforcements.
At this moment, Tuo Buhua's cavalry was hurriedly adjusting their formation under Burigede's command.
By the time they adjusted to the charging formation, the Western Liang cavalry had already charged into the enemy's formation!
"Kill!"
The Western Liang cavalrymen wrapped in iron sheets slammed into the Turkic army's chest like a heavy hammer.
From a bird's eye view, it looked like a sharp sword had pierced through a person's body.
The damage from the rear spread to both sides, tearing open an even bigger wound.
In their panic, the barbarians wanted to use their scimitars and spears to stop this heavy hammer.
However, no matter how they brandished their sabers and stabbed their spears, they could not cause any damage to the Western Liang cavalry.
When the scimitar hit the plate armor, it could only leave a mark on the thick iron sheet.
The price was that the scimitar broke!
Looking at the lance, it was even worse than a scimitar. The sharp tip of the lance could not find a point of strength at all.
As soon as it touched the surface of the plate armor, it was cut to the side due to the smooth outer layer of iron.
At the same time, people would lose their balance due to inertia and lean forward.
One had to know that the Western Liang cavalry was at their strongest at this time!
They usually did not need to take the initiative to do anything. They could rely on the impact of their mounts to send their enemies flying.
Not to mention, they were holding cast-iron spears.
The lance collided with a human body and instantly pierced through the barbarian soldier's chest, tearing a huge hole on the spot.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
……
A series of dense collisions echoed in the center of the battlefield.
Every sound meant that someone had been knocked out by the heavy cavalry.
The Western Liang cavalry were heavy and full of strength. They did not need any skills. They could crush the barbarian army with the most primitive force of impact!
The Western Liang cavalrymen created a huge hole.
The other cavalrymen followed closely behind and charged into the center of the battlefield.
Tuo Buhua's beast was scared out of his wits by this unreasonable army.
Looking at the beast-like Western Liang cavalrymen, they cried out in horror.
"What is this thing? Are they still human?"
"The weapons in our hands can't penetrate their defense at all. How can we fight?”
"What kind of armor are they wearing? Why haven't I seen them before?”
"We can't hurt them at all. These armors are too abnormal!”
……
Tuo Buhua's morale fell rapidly.
Even the appearance of the Youzhou Army gave them the illusion that they were invincible.
The Turkic army clearly outnumbered the Youzhou Army by three times, but they had been forced to take a beating.
These beasts were swaying in the wind and rain, as if they would collapse at any moment.
