In the face of a large area of cavalry galloping towards themselves at high speed, how much courage does it take to have no fluctuation in your heart?
Most people are on the battlefield. When facing a large number of enemy cavalry charging against themselves, they actually have weak legs, and even their crotch has long been wet. They don't want to escape, but their legs are weak. Then they are clamped by the left and right people, and there is the awe of military law. Otherwise, seven or eight out of ten actually want to turn around and escape.
The Sassanian infantry on the outer front first suffered a round of collision from their own fleeing cavalry, and then took the opportunity to make a close assault against the Han cavalry. They were also shot several times. In fact, everyone was in a state of collapse.
The formation of the front is often to coerce soldiers with collapsed mentality to continue fighting.
In the crowded state, the soldiers in front collapsed, but the soldiers in the rear did not know what was happening in front. In this way, the people in front wanted to retreat and the people in the rear wanted to go up. The soldiers in unknown circumstances crowded the soldiers with collapsed mentality and clubbed in place.
The current situation is that the Sassanian infantry, who are crowded in the front row and want to retreat and can't retreat, obviously don't want to fight, but they still have to watch the sudden cavalry of the Han Army gallop at high speed and keep approaching.
The Sassanian soldiers in front were scared to death. There was no act of blocking the advance of the Han cavalry at all. It could even be said that they were facing the approaching Han army behind, just trying to pick up the friendly army and try to win a way to survive.
The unknown Sassanian infantry behind them moved forward side by side and crowded.
Those Sassanian crossbow men are constantly shooting arrows according to the command. They don't know what the results of their arrows are. Some just repeatedly listen to the military order and shoot arrows again and again. Often they don't even know what angle they should shoot.
In both directions, the sudden cavalry of the Han army continued to approach the front of Sasan and charged within the range of Sasan crossbow men. In fact, they did not lift their shields. They rode up and down with the bumps of the horses with spears in their hands and let the arrows shoot at themselves.
The armour of the sudden cavalry of the Han army was not afraid of arrows, especially the arrow type arrows of sashan. They are plate armor, but they still have some characteristics of scale armor. In addition to the armor that can be seen outside, there is also a layer of lock armor and multi-layer silk underwear inside.
In this way, even if the plate armor does not block the arrow, the lock armor will also block the penetrating arrow. If the silk clothes on the body "pull" the arrow, it will actually only suffer a little flesh injury. Unless it is hit in the eye, even if there are dozens of arrows inserted in the body, it can continue to fight without causing a lot of blood.
The first group of Han Army's sudden cavalry stormed up, and in an instant, they bumped into a large area of Sassanian's infantry front, but the Han Army's sudden cavalry basically fell into it.
At the moment of the collision, the sudden cavalry of the Han army was thrown away. When they fell, it was inevitable that they would hit the Sassanian soldiers to the bottom.
If they can react, they will draw out the sword around their waist and cut whoever they see below.
If you are stabbed by a sharp weapon after throwing it out, basically the iron plate will withstand it, but people become tumbling and falling, and it takes more time to react.
Of course, the sudden cavalry of the Han Army did not rush into some echelons, but a column at a time. After the last batch of collisions, the next batch would collide again at an interval of more than ten seconds.
After repeated collisions, the infantry front organized by Sassanian had disintegrated less than three times.
Before the front infantry front disintegrated, the Sassanian crossbow men in the rear had long been ordered to turn and retreat, but they were usually caught up by the punctured Han Army sudden cavalry, and being caught was tantamount to death.
After the Han Army's sudden cavalry completed the chiseling, other cavalry continued to rush into sashan camp.
From the arrival of the Han Army to the completion of the breakthrough of the first Sassanian front, it was only less than 20 minutes in the past. This result was taken for granted in the eyes of the Han Army, and Sasan didn't feel much surprise on his side.
What surprised sassanne was that his side could insist on at least three waves of assault, not causing collapse when he first encountered an assault.
The collision occurred first in the north and followed closely in the West.
The breakthrough in the North was completed first, and in the West it was about five minutes late. At this time, the Han cavalry attacking the eastern front of Sasan had just launched an assault.
Naturally, the Han Army arriving at the battlefield will not have a large number of Sassanian troops, but as the offensive party, the Han Army has the initiative, especially when Sassanian has no cavalry cruising around.
DOS pars Canaan Dina sent out his high-speed mobile arms in order to slow down the march of the Han army. On the premise that even if he is defeated, he is a high-speed mobile arms, it is possible that the whole army will be destroyed only by chariots, and there is still no problem for cavalry to leave the battlefield.
In fact, if cavalry sees opportunity quickly, it is really difficult to be entangled, but that is premise of the not fighting. Once they are really entangled with each other, they are cavalry. They can't go if they want to.
The right decision was met with the slow reaction of the front - line commander, dospars The mobile forces sent by Canaan Dina are almost the same as the total military defeat.
Dospars, who stood high and surveyed the battlefield Canadians, the forehead is already covered with cold sweat.
The first front played a role in blocking the Han Army, but in fact, it only blocked a little, and won a little more time for the rear to organize and improve the defense line.
The Han cavalry who rushed into the sashan camp, the sudden cavalry, was the second line of defense organized by the Persians. In the course of their action, they ran rampant, one tent after another upside down and broken, and the place they passed was in a mess.
At the same time of charging, the Han Army's sudden cavalry once again completed the echelon stratification and the composition of wave like collision tactics, and soon collided with the second front organized by the Sassanian army.
At the same time, the light cavalry and bow cavalry of the Han army were avoiding the charging route of their own sudden cavalry, riding and shooting at the second front of Sasan in teams or scattered.
The Sassanian soldiers on the first defense line just now, after the front collapsed, almost no Persians could successfully escape back to the rear. Even if they were not dead for the time being, they were in the peripheral camp full of Han cavalry activities. Many people knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, and then were bumped and trampled by the rushing Han horses.
Thousands of people, almost in the blink of an eye, became a corpse on the battlefield, which was seen by Sassanian soldiers who were organizing the second line of defense.
As a result, the soldiers of Sassanian's second line of defense couldn't help retreating, and then there were arrows constantly shot in the past, which distorted and confused the line of defense to a certain extent.
DOS pars Canaan Dina opened his eyes and watched the Han Army's sudden cavalry hit his second line of defense. When he saw that only the first batch of Han Army's sudden cavalry hit his second line of defense, his heart sank completely.
Break through? DOS pars Canaan Dina never thought about it. He is more or less a general. How can he not know that any breakthrough after losing mobile power is a delusion. It's better to kneel down and ask the enemy to be kind and kind.
DOS pars What Canaanite Dinah needs to think about now is, once the situation is irreversible, should he struggle with his life or pull the weapon around his neck.
"Surrender?" DOS pars Canaan Dina looked at his second line of defense being torn and broken. People need to hold the fence to avoid falling soft: "surrender to the Han people... The end will not be very good..."
Their direct relatives of general sassanne, who led the troops, were basically in texifeng and were properly taken care of by the aldasher royal family.
The former general Sassanian who surrendered to the Han Empire, no one knows whether he is dead or not. Anyway, none of his relatives in taixifeng survived.
The second line of defense collapsed under the charge of the Han cavalry, and then fell into various collisions and tramples by the subsequent Han cavalry.
DOS pars Canaan Dina's cheeks twitched constantly. He didn't expect the third line of defense to play any role. He could only guess how long the camp would be completely disturbed by the Han army.
From the general situation, after two consecutive lines of defense were broken through by the Han Army, the sashan camp has fallen into inevitable chaos.
There are people running around in the whole camp, and some of them are killing each other. In any way, this Sassanian army is in a state of collapse.
After breaking through two lines of defense, the Han Army's sudden cavalry actually lost the ability to collide with the third line of defense again.
It's not that this group of Han Army sudden cavalry can't fight. It's that the war horses under the crotch accelerate and collide twice in a row. Their physical strength is consumed too much. Once the sudden cavalry has no speed, it will be a very stupid thing to collide again.
The subsequent sudden cavalry had not come up yet, and the light cavalry who found this situation made a decision in an instant.
"Woo woo!!!"
The strong horn was sounded, and the first group of Han Army light cavalry gave up cleaning up the battlefield. It was a cavalry collision formation that slowly gathered together, moved forward, and then slowly formed a front arrow array.
The sudden cavalry knights, whose horses are tired and it is difficult to change their mounts in wartime, took over the task of cleaning up the residual enemy by the light cavalry.
The Sassanian soldiers in the third line of defense were in a state of ignorance when they saw that the Han army appeared in front of them so soon.
According to the ideas of these Sassanian soldiers, there are at least 5000 or 6000 friendly troops ahead. Should they be blocked for more than an hour anyway? But in less than 15 minutes, the Han army was killed!
"Run!"
"I don't want to die..."
"Run, run..."
The light cavalry of the Han army who were speeding up and charging showed an expression of ecstasy. They had been determined to rush up with life and death, but the next moment they saw the enemy collapse in front of them.
Even if the sudden cavalry rushed into the array, it was also a great risk. In particular, the first batch of knights who collided with them were almost doomed to death. They used their lives to make a victory start for the subsequent friendly forces.
Light cavalry to collide with the tight formation of infantry? If the sudden cavalry is a near death, then the light cavalry is ten dead without life.
Under normal circumstances, the light cavalry charge against the enemy's dense infantry is actually more of a threat than a real collision. If you can frighten the enemy to collapse and disperse the formation, you will really kill them; If the enemy's infantry remained in a tight formation, they would shoot a round of arrows at most, and it was time for them to withdraw from the side.
The current situation is that the north of the camp in sassanne collapsed first, and then the collapse on this side affected other parts, resulting in the collapse of the formation effect.
"For Han slaves, surrender and don't kill!"
"Stubbornly resist and kill!"
Do Persians understand Chinese? In fact, they don't understand.
However, some Sassanian soldiers saw that the Han Army let go of those who knelt down and surrendered, pursued and killed those who resisted and drove away those who ran away. Without going offline, they immediately knew how to live.
Sassanian soldiers who didn't want to die followed suit one after another. When they found that the Han Army didn't kill themselves, they were relieved at first, and then burst into tears.
"Too bad, really too bad!"
"I haven't held on for a day. How can we fight the Han people?"
"Who wants to fight the Han people..."
What's the use of saying that now? Are you sure that the Han people are as good as they are rumored to be able to fight, and it's natural for them to lose?
DOS pars When Canaan Dina saw the collapse of the third line of defense and the surrender of soldiers on the front line in batches, how could he not know that the general trend was gone.
"General Ben..." dospars Canaan Dina is now relaxed: "who wants to fight and die with the Han army?"
Several people continued to talk and were willing to die in honor.
After falling to the ground, DOS pars Canaanite Dinah glanced at the assembled undead army and walked towards the front line.
Almost when Sassanian soldiers began to surrender in large numbers, Li Tan appeared on the battlefield.
"What about Peshawar?" Li Tan looked in the direction of Peshawar: "look at the cover of smoke... The fire is very big!"
Now, no matter which country or nation, it is absolutely impossible to build a house without wood. Once a fire breaks out and the house is spread, it is really not so easy to put out the fire.
Li Tan didn't have much intuitive impression of Peshawar. Before leaving, he read the information sent back by Ma Bin. In Ma Bin's description, Peshawar is a chaotic city.
For the fierce battle outside the city, jidoro didn't even come out to help. Li Tan had two decisions.
If Peshawar were miserable, Li Tan would not ask for more.
If Peshawar had the ability and did not come out, Li Tan would not have any mercy next.
"General Lang, the main general of the enemy asked for the battle of the division."
"To the teacher?"
Li Tan thought that sassanne's general was out of his mind. Facing the outcome of the defeat, he asked for a single challenge?
"Ben Lang will not want to wait any longer."
"Promise!"
