Chapter 394 The World's Most Sharp
The Sharp Tiger Cavalry was no match for the White Horse Volunteers. Taishi Ci was very clear about this from the beginning. His purpose was only to contain the White Horse Volunteers and wait for Zhang Liao's Zhaohu Army and Zhao Yun's Dragon Soul Cavalry to arrive.
But when Taishi Ci saw Gongsun Zan rushing towards him with a spear in hand, he was overjoyed.
Gongsun Bogui got angry again.
Without hesitation, he thrust his spear forward, a flash of cold light flashed, heading straight for Gongsun Zan's shoulder holding the spear.
Taishi Ci did not want to kill Gongsun Zan, he just wanted to injure him and capture him.
At such a critical moment, Gongsun Zan changed his previous fanatical attitude and his face became as calm as water.
A flash of cold light also passed by, easily knocking the spear in Taishi Ci's hand off balance, and then stabbed towards Taishi Ci's chest.
Taishi Ci, who originally thought he had it all figured out, instinctively sensed something was wrong the moment he saw Gongsun Zan draw his gun.
This speed is somewhat similar to, Zilong?
The spear that was originally thrust forward unconsciously retracted its force.
After being deflected by Gongsun Zan, he decisively used the butt of his gun to block the cold light for a moment, and then used a bridge to dodge the fierce attack.
Seeing this, Gongsun Zan sighed softly in his heart.
Tian Chengshou has so many brave generals under his command!
He only had the strength to strike once, and the fatal stab just now failed to knock Taishi Ci off his horse. Gongsun Zan no longer had any ideas and continued to lead the cavalry to charge, preparing to break out of the encirclement.
The same situation was happening to the other White Horse Volunteers.
But he is different from Taishi Ci who is highly skilled in martial arts.
The quality of the cavalry under Taishi Ci was not better than that of the White Horse Volunteers. After suffering this swift attack, most of them were unable to withstand it, and many were seriously injured or even fell off their horses.
"How could this happen?" Taishi Ci looked at the scene in disbelief.
Just a charge resulted in heavy losses on our side.
You have to know that every cavalryman on your side is an elite soldier wearing Ming Guang armor, and the armor on their bodies is not just for decoration.
But the enemy cavalry could actually injure or even seriously damage the enemy with just one stab.
Taishi Ci had not thought much of it before when he saw the White Horse Volunteers slaughtering the ordinary cavalry under his command. After all, they were the Army Soul Corps, so it was normal for his own cavalry to be defeated.
But now it seems that this is too terrifying!
Taishi Ci was surprised but he didn't know that Gongsun Zan was in the same bad mood at that moment.
What a tough cavalry!
Having fought against the Hu Lu cavalry for many years, Gongsun Zan knew best what the cavalry's greatest advantage was and knew how to use this advantage.
The unrivaled speed of the Baima Yicong is more reflected in their mobility. Although their combat speed and reaction speed are still very strong, their mobility is not so unmatched by anyone in the world.
After all, human energy is limited. It is already extremely difficult to push one path to the extreme, so where would one get the extra energy to take care of other things?
However, cavalry with only speed but no crushing power is not invincible in combat.
Therefore, Gongsun Zan took a different approach and cleverly utilized the extreme mobility of the White Horse Volunteers to train this fatal first strike.
The first attack of the White Horse Volunteers was extremely powerful, beyond common sense.
Any cavalry that encountered them would almost certainly collapse at the first blow, and then the White Horse Volunteers would take advantage of the situation and crush them.
Even if there was a delay, the powerful force of the blow was enough for the Baima Yicong to find a gap and break out of the encirclement, then pick up speed again and continue the attack.
It was precisely because of this set of almost flawless tactics that the White Horse Volunteers were able to roam freely on the grassland without ever suffering a defeat.
Because apart from the terrain restrictions, nothing can stop the White Horse Volunteers. Even if they are surrounded by a large army, as long as they are not close to them, the White Horse Volunteers can seize the opportunity to break out of the encirclement.
But at this moment, the seemingly perfect tactics and weaknesses that were not considered weaknesses actually showed flaws when facing the Sharp Tiger Cavalry.
Although the Sharp Tiger Cavalry did not have any strong specialties, it was definitely the most difficult to deal with among the non-Military Soul Legions. Even if they encountered the Military Soul Legion, they could hold out for a while. After all, whether it was defense capability, assault capability, long-range attack or mobility, this army had no shortcomings.
Even if they are entangled, the Sharp Tiger Cavalry can dismount and form a formation as heavy infantry, and they are heavy infantry with long-range attack capabilities, and their main feature is a panacea.
For the first time, Gongsun Zan felt obvious resistance while leading the White Horse Volunteers in a surprise attack.
Of course, this is not the most troublesome thing for Gongsun Zan.
If it was just Taishi Ci's Sharp Tiger Cavalry, Gongsun Zan could easily reorganize the White Horse Volunteers after the breakthrough, circle around to find their flank, and slowly dismember them like cutting meat with a knife.
But the reality was that before he could break out, Zhang Liao's Zhaohu Army and Zhao Yun's Longhun Army had already surrounded him.
There was a slight bitterness on Gongsun Zan's lips, and he turned around and looked at Taishi Ci deeply.
I'm afraid he lost this battle.
Lost to his most unremitting panacea.
He has always been pursuing perfection and firmly believes that speed is invincible. As long as he is fast enough and can fight and run, no one can defeat him.
But now it seems that no matter how fast the speed is, there will be flaws as long as the attack is made.
It may not be obvious in small-scale cavalry battles, but in this large-scale battle, and when the enemy is mostly elite, unless his speed reaches a higher level, he may still be designed to escape.
"It's still not fast enough!" Gongsun Zan murmured.
He is such a stubborn person.
The lesson before him did not change his belief at all, but instead gave him a more determined goal.
There was nothing wrong with his path, the problem was that he wasn't fast enough.
If he was fast enough, even if he raided the previous cavalry, he would not be caught up by Taishi Ci.
Even if he was fighting with Taishi Ci, he should have broken out of the encirclement by now.
Faster! Faster!
Gongsun Zan roared madly in his heart.
"Whatever is right!"
"We will be together in life and death! Heaven is my witness! The white horse is my witness!"
As Gongsun Zan shouted the slogan again, the Baima Yicong, which had reached its peak and had not made any progress for a long time, seemed to have broken through some kind of limitation again, and its speed continued to increase slowly.
Taishi Ci, who was fighting against him, was the one who felt this most clearly.
When the speed reaches a certain level, even if it increases just a little bit, it will be the distance between life and death.
Just a little faster, the spear that had originally brushed past his chest had already pierced into his chest.
Taishi Ci looked at the sharp tiger cavalry around him who were falling one after another like wheat being cut, his eyes full of disbelief.
Let’s cheat!
The higher your strength, the more difficult it is to improve. This is common sense.
He was able to make a breakthrough in this battle because he had accumulated enough foundation and had taken half a step, only lacking the finishing touch.
And what about the White Horse Volunteers?
It was already the sharpest in the world, and its speed was beyond his comprehension, how could it be even faster?
At this moment, Taishi Ci couldn't help but recall the scene of his previous battle with Zhao Yun after his breakthrough.
"Gongsun Zan, Baima Yicong, and Zilong are a bit too similar!"
