Chapter 474

The heavy cavalry, a branch of the Jiri plain charge, even has the title of invincible plain.

Juhe city extends in all directions, which is the most suitable terrain conducive to the charge of heavy cavalry. Therefore, the back gate seems to have the weakest defensive force, but because of the presence of heavy cavalry, it is the side with the strongest defensive force.

Just relying on the 100000 light cavalry in Chen Shen's hand, do you want to defeat this well-trained heavy cavalry force from the front?

Chen Shen is actually... Not so inflated.

But he knows who will expand.

Of course, this is the expansion designed by Ouyang.

In the previous siege, Ouyang acted vigorously. He once sent a small number of troops to the back gate to test. At the beginning, the commander of this force was Chen Shen.

Chen Shen strictly followed Ouyang's orders. After he went out of the back gate and there were heavy cavalry on guard, he didn't force a hard attack, but retreated after a little contact.

In fact, if he wanted to retreat at that time, he could retreat completely without damage, but Chen Shen tasted some sweetness to Xu Tianci at that time, deliberately retreated slowly, let Xu Tianci seize the opportunity to fight a wave, and made Chen Shen lose a small part of his troops.

This gave Xu Tianci a message to let him know that he could not beat him. Once the two armies met, Xu Tianci would be on the strong side.

And in fact, when light cavalry meets heavy cavalry, they don't have to fight. This is the truth.

In fact, with a little guidance, Ouyang's strict implementation created a kind of for Xu Tianci. When Zheng Yuanyun was weak as a whole, on the contrary, Xu Tianci suddenly emerged and became a strong force in the weak.

After calculation, Xu Tianci knew that he could return to the back gate in case of any situation, and he also calculated the longest distance he could pursue. Once that distance was exceeded, whether he pursued the enemy or not, he would resolutely give up chasing and return to the back gate.

Xu Tianci still has this sense. He knows that his most important task at the moment is to guard the back gate safely, so that Lord Zheng has no worries.

At the same time, if he can wipe out the light cavalry before reaching the longest distance, he will make a great contribution!

In the weak situation of Juhe city as a whole, Ouyang's fierce attack is without scruples. At this time, if he can bring a big victory to Lord Zheng

In addition to boosting his own morale, what is more important is that Ouyang can not dare to attack without scruples, but must always beware of his sharp gun here.

From the overall situation, if Xu Tianci can win this victory, it will be a very favorable thing for him, Zheng Yuanyun and the whole garrison in Juhe city.

In this way, Xu Tianci will certainly try his best to catch up.

As a result, great things were caught up.

After being beaten once by Xu Tianci, Chen Shen has been hiding and ambushing here. This is a grassland about two miles west of the city gate behind Juhe city. It was not suitable for hiding. But now Juhe city is under attack, Zheng Yuanyun's own troops are insufficient, coupled with Ouyang's siege strategy, So that Zheng Yuanyun couldn't send scouts to explore the surrounding details.

Of course, it doesn't matter if he doesn't explore. Zheng Yuanyun just sticks to Juhe City, and then waits for the reinforcements to come and launch a counterattack.

Xu Tianci, however, had no idea that the cavalry had also served as an engineer. During the armistice between the two sides, he dug a wide and deep trench.

And Chen Shen spent a lot of time digging this trench.

This is the grass. It could also be used to hide traps. After the soldiers dug out the trenches, Chen Shen specially tested the weight of his own light cavalry when pretending. He tried to stand up without falling down by the standard of being able to bear a fully armed light cavalry.

You know, even if they are equally fully armed, the light cavalry and heavy cavalry are not of the same order of magnitude in weight. If the light cavalry is the standard camouflage, the heavy cavalry will definitely fall down.

Of course, this is only a rough reference. It doesn't mean that the light cavalry will not collapse when they stand up. Especially when the cavalry is running, the weight will actually change.

Therefore, in order to deliberately lure the enemy deeper, Chen Shen performed such a performance.

Pretending to fight Xu Tianci head-on, but when the two sides were about to approach, he made a move about two points, gently and skillfully swept by the side of the heavy cavalry, making a false image of trying to seize the back gate.

Xu Tianci didn't worry about him. He wasn't even in a hurry to adjust his charging angle. He wanted to give him a cruel when Chen Shen turned back.

Acting broke out at this time.

Although the quality of Ouyang's soldiers is not as high as Zheng Yuanyun's, it is not that a small formation change will make mistakes. It is clear that it was played for Xu Tianci.

The seemingly wrong change of direction made the troops led by Chen Shen aim at the retreat position, which was the trench they had buried in advance.

This change of direction did not exceed Xu Tianci's charging angle, so naturally, Xu Tianci led the heavy cavalry to catch up.

The light cavalry's lineup was scattered at that time. On the one hand, Xu Tianci had no pressure to chase, on the other hand, he was preparing to lure the other party into the trench.

You should know that Xu Tianci is naturally not a fool. In the process of pursuit, once he finds that there is a problem with the movement of the light cavalry, he will be alert and detect the other party's conspiracy in time.

The scattered formation gave Chen Shen the opportunity to continue acting. Although the cover on the trench could bear the weight of a light cavalry, for the sake of insurance, Chen Shen had an order in advance. As long as they were close to the trench, they either went around or jumped over the trench.

It is precisely because of the scattered formation that the jumping of the light cavalry is not uniform, which makes Xu Tianci further lose his judgment and do not smell the smell of danger.

Yes, the width of the trench is just the width that a light cavalry can jump over, but that's enough.

You should know that once the heavy cavalry runs over, it is very difficult to brake. Not only that, it is also unrealistic to get up once they fall, especially in such a chaotic scene.

The first wave of heavy cavalry fell into the pit, and the people behind couldn't stop. They could only watch themselves and their horses fall down.
