MTL - Chastity Layman-Chapter 35 Black Armored Cavalry

  Chapter 35 Xuan Jia Cavalry

  The ninth year of Wude, the fourth day of June.

   Early morning.

  Qin Lang saw that the Xuanwu Gate was still closed from afar, and he finally relaxed when he raised it.

  The beacon smoke on the city is still burning.

  He strangled his mount.

  The head of the leopard stood up, neighing again and again.

  Qin Lang raised his right hand high.

   Behind him, Qin Yong, Lao Huang, Wei Chang, Lin San, Liu Jiu and others stopped their mounts one after another, and more than a thousand people and horses also slowed down and gradually stopped behind him.

   "The Xuanwu Gate is still closed."

   "But the beacon is burning above the city."

   "Look at this city, there are a lot of people who died and joined the imperial army."

Although the several soldiers and horses under the city are all under the flag of the Tang Dynasty and wear the armor of the Tang Dynasty, there are still some subtle differences in the robes of different troops. The Twelve Guards and Four Houses of Nanya, their military robes are trimmed with a golden border, which is very obvious.

  The Six Rates and Changlin Bing in the East Palace are inlaid with silver borders, as for the yellow borders in the Qi Palace, and the black borders in the Qin Palace.

  The ones who fell on the ground were mostly Yuan Cong, the emperor of the North Gate Tunying, who was inlaid with gold rims.

  Qin Lang looked at the opposite side carefully on the horse, and finally came to the conclusion that although the Beimen Tunying soldiers who supported the King of Qin had been defeated, the Donggong and Qi Fu soldiers temporarily won for a while, but fortunately Xuanwu Gate was still controlled by the Qin King's party.

   "Stop advancing, array!"

  Compared to those well-equipped Eastern Palace soldiers and Qi Mansion soldiers, Qin Lang, who rushed to his side, was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and the equipment was even more incomparable.

  Qin Lang didn't intend to charge directly.

   "Sanlang, I suggest retreating for the time being. As long as we watch from behind, they won't be able to attack Xuanwumen with all their strength. We just need to hold back." Qin Yong suggested.

Over there, Liu Jiu held a golden backed sword and said disdainfully, "Just when you are going to kill the generals in one go, if you kill them all, what are you going to return? Don't you know that you are here now, if you retreat this time, I'm afraid the morale will be ruined." No, it’s going to be more difficult to fight.” Liu Jiu has rebelled and led troops before, and he knows that the group behind is simply a temporary organization of mobs, and now that he retreats, he probably thinks he has lost and has no desire to fight anymore. .

  Qin Lang nodded.

   "We don't retreat or attack. We just line up here. Those with shields are in front, those with long guys are behind, those with bows and crossbows are in the middle, and those with horses protect the wings."

Wei Chang looked at the group of thousands of people with all kinds of weapons and messy clothes behind him, and said worriedly, "East Palace soldiers, especially those Changlin soldiers, many of them are Youzhou cavalry, if they charge , I’m afraid we’re about to collapse.”

   "His Royal Highness's Xuanjiaqi is nearby and will be here soon. We just need to hold on for a while."

Although Qin Lang is young and energetic, he is not stupid either. Jing Junhong and Lu Shiheng, the two Zhonglang generals, have already fallen. He doesn't think that the group of people behind him are more powerful than Tianzi Yuancong, at least in terms of Tianzi Yuancong's equipment It is better, and people have more training.

  Under normal circumstances, Qin Lang should indeed lead his troops to retreat temporarily. But what Liu Jiu said also made sense. This kind of mob can only move forward but not retreat. If they retreat, they may collapse.

   It's okay to fight with the wind, but they can't bear the pressure.

   Can only stare here.

"Wei Shuai, let the brothers shout from behind, and say that the general of Youwuhou Liang State Public Security came to punish the rebels and the thieves under the order of the King of Qin, so that the soldiers of the East Palace and the Qi Mansion will no longer help the tyrant to abuse and become a tiger, let them hurry up! Back off."

   "Brother Lin, let your brothers shout on the other side, saying that Yongzhou Gaozhizhong came here to fight against the king under the decree of King Qin!"

   "Ah Huang, bring some people to shout from behind, and say that General Liu Gong of Zuo Wuhou was ordered to come to calm the chaos!"

   "Brother Yi, you have more than a dozen riders to run around the front of the formation, and you will say that General Fengtianjie, General Zuowei, and General Qin, Duke Yi of Shangzhu, come to calm the chaos!"

  ······

   A moment later, Qin Lang's side was full of shouts.

  Under the Xuanwu sect.

  Xie Shufang, Feng Xu, and Feng Lisan will get together.

   "General An Xinggui, Marquis of Right, General Liu Hongji, Marquis of Zuo, General Qin Qiong of Zuowei, Gao Shilian of Yongzhou Zhizhong..."

   "Gao Shilian is Qin Wang's wife-in-law. It is not surprising that he voted for Qin Wang, but why did An Xinggui and Liu Hongji also join the Qin Palace?"

   "Hasn't that Qin Qiong already switched to the prince?"

   Several people looked at each other in blank dismay.

   "An Xinggui has always been His Majesty's man, and Liu Hongji is also His Majesty's man."

"I think they have already turned to King Qin in secret, otherwise how could these people pass through Fanglin Gate?" Xie Shufang frowned and said, the left and right Marquis Marquis were in charge of patrolling the streets of Chang'an Imperial City and the outer city, and were on duty at various city gates. It is an extremely important position. Earlier, the King of Qin held these two important positions, and His Majesty later chose An Xinggui and Liu Hongji respectively. Unexpectedly, these two people had already voted for the King of Qin. "

   "Then what should we do now?" Feng Li asked worriedly.

   "If they all fall to King Qin, I'm afraid more soldiers will arrive soon."

   Xie Shufang made his previous suggestion, but the Feng brothers refused.

   "Then there is only war. Taking advantage of their new arrival, their foothold is not stable, and there are not many people, let's divide up our troops to hide and kill them, and destroy them."

   Soon, the two parties agreed.

  Xie Shufang led the troops of King Qi's mansion to turn around and attack the reinforcements of King Qin who had arrived, and the Feng brothers led the soldiers of the East Palace to continue to besiege Xuanwu Gate.

   More than 1,500 Qi Wangfu soldiers were divided into three square formations and approached slowly.

   Xie Shufang rides a silver horse, holds a silver spear, and wears silver armor.

   He jumped in front of the horse and shouted loudly.

   "I am the descendant of the champion general Xie Xianwu, the left chariot general Xie Shufang of the Qi Palace, who is on the opposite side, dare to declare your name?"

  The leopard that Qin Lang was sitting on was pawing the head restlessly, Qin Lang was wearing three layers of thick armor, and was also holding a spear in his hand, "Who is Xie Xianwu?"

Qin Yong next to him replied, "Xie Xianwu is Xie Xuan who formed the Beifu soldiers in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and defeated the former Qin army as a striker in the Battle of Feishui. Xie An's nephew is also the champion general of the latecomer. After his death, he was posthumously named Xianwu. At the beginning of His Majesty's army, he joined King Qi's command, and he is the number one general under King Qi's command, so be careful."

  Qin Yong stared at Xie Shufang in the distance, his hands had already pressed the two sledgehammers on his waist, and he was very vigilant.

  Liu Jiu raised the big knife, "After Xie Xuan? It seems that he should have some skills, but I would like to meet him." After finishing speaking, he patted the horse and went out to fight without waiting for Qin Lang's consent.

  Qin Lang shook his head as he watched, the two armies clashed, how did they become fighting generals?

  Liu Jiuzong rode forward with a knife in his hand, just in time for Xie Shufang to yell.

   "Who is coming? Xie, Ma Qiang, doesn't pick on unknown people!"

  Liu Jiu laughed loudly, "Listen well, grandpa is Liu Jiu, Prince Lishi Hu!"

  Xie Shufang sneered twice, "It turns out that you, a death row prisoner, unexpectedly came out. Since you came to seek death, I will give you a ride!"

  The two rode horses to hedge, and the swords intersected.

   After a few rounds, there was no winner.

   When falling down, you will meet Liangcai and meet each other, and the kill is inseparable.

  Qin Lang watched with gusto from behind, "You say this Xie Shufang is very powerful?"

   "Well, of course it's worse than Alang, but it's not far behind." Qin Yong nodded.

   "I didn't expect this Liu Jiu to be so tough. He can tie with Xie Shufang, which shows that his martial arts are also very strong."

Qin Yong said disapprovingly, "Liu Jiuruo is still above Xie Shufang in terms of martial arts alone, but he has been imprisoned for a long time and has not recovered. But for a general, martial arts is not the most important thing. Naturally, it is necessary to be brave, but to be a general, you need more talent as a commander. Arranging troops is making decisions on the fly, and it is the opportunity to seize the opportunity. In this regard, Liu Jiu is definitely not as good as Xie Shufang."

   "I don't think so. If Xie Shufang was really smart, he wouldn't be fighting for generals here."

   "Perhaps Xie Shufang originally planned to come and capture the flag before the battle, so as to boost morale, but he didn't expect Liu Jiu to be so powerful."

  Xie Shufang fought Liu Jiu for dozens of rounds, and seeing that he couldn't kill the other party, he stopped entanglement. He rode his horse back to the main formation, and then ordered the soldiers and horses to slowly press forward.

  Liu Jiu didn't dare to rush into the spear formation, but came back on horseback.

   "Damn it, this Xie Shufang is not grown."

   "Brother Liu has worked hard, let's go back and have a rest." Qin Lang smiled and praised Liu Jiu for his martial arts.

   "Brother Yi, how long will it take for Xuanjiaqi to arrive?" He smiled wryly at Qin Yong, a little unsure, "I'm afraid we won't last long."

"General Zhai Changsun commanded five hundred Xuanjia cavalry and one thousand Tiance soldiers. It should be not far from here, and it should be here soon." Qin Yong could only say this, Zhai Changsun was one of the four original commanders of Xuanjia cavalry. First, after Xuanjiaqi was established, the four commanders were Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde and Zhai Changsun.

  Qin Qiong secretly sent Zhai Changsun to unite 1,500 people from Weishui Daying Camp, which is the guarantee of combat effectiveness.

   It's just that the beacon has been lit for a long time, but it hasn't come yet.

  Suddenly, Qin Yong shut up and pricked up his ears to listen carefully. Finally, he jumped off the horse, took off the quiver and put it on the ground, and then put his ears on it to listen.

   "Listen, there are soldiers and horses marching nearby. They are cavalry, and they are galloping. The number is not less than five hundred, and they are very close to this place."

   "Could it be Xuanjia cavalry?" Qin Lang was excited.

Xuanjia cavalry is an elite cavalry unit created by Li Shimin who fought in the world for the Tang Dynasty. When Li Shimin went to war, he wore Xuanjia as a forward in every battle. The enemy has been defeated.

  Xuanjiaqi is a light cavalry wearing a black armor and riding a black horse. It is the chosen front among the cavalry. Xuanjia cavalry selected hussars from the Quartet. They were best at ambushes and assaults. Whether it was a flank assault or a frontal assault, the offensive was like fire and unstoppable.

  Qin Lang picked up his horse spear, "Pass the order, Xuanjia Cavalry is here, Tiance's personal soldiers are here, and the time for victory has come!"

   "Ready to charge!"

  The earth is shaking, from slight vibrations to increasingly violent vibrations.

  Northwest, a line of Kuroshio emerged.

  As soon as it appeared, it was like a gust of wind blowing dark clouds, attacking violently.

  Black battle flag, black armor, black horse, black paint gun!

   "Xuan Jia Qi!"

  Suddenly, five hundred Xuanjia Qingqi cavalry rushed out fiercely. At this time, Donggong soldiers were attacking Xuanwu Gate, while Qi Wangfu soldiers turned around and pressed Qin Lang's troops.

  The five hundred Xuanjia cavalry led by Zhai Changsun happened to cut in between the two armies of Donggong and Qifu soldiers. They directly chose the Qifu soldiers of Xie Shufang's department as their attack target.

   Cover up and attack from behind the Qi government army.

  Qin Lang laughed loudly, and waved his spear to order the whole army to attack.

The two armies attacked back and forth, and Qianwu Qi's soldiers fell into the predicament of being attacked by the enemy in the abdomen. What's more terrible is that they had just fought a battle with the camp. At this time, they were also a tired army. The front was blocked by Qin Lang's troops again, unable to advance or retreat for a while.

   Almost instantly, the Qi government army collapsed and fled.
