Chapter 720: The Decisive Battle Advances (Part II)

As Pang Wanchun expected, today's night attack was expected by Sun Tu, and it can even be said that it was completely caused by him. Reduced the troops outside the city, slowed down the siege, and finally put on a posture of imminent retreat, just to lure out the Wu army in the city, and set a trap in the camp early, as long as the enemy dared to come, they would be caught off guard.

After the battle began, everything was developing according to Sun Tu's arrangement, and the Wu army, which was attacking from three sides, quickly fell into passivity, not only was it killed and retreated, but the casualties continued to increase, and it was about to collapse completely. When he saw this scene in the Chinese army, he was even more confident, and immediately ordered the troops in front to step up their attacks, and it was best to attack Huzhou City while the Wu army was fleeing into it, so as to take this fortified city that had blocked them for a long time in one fell swoop.

As the sound of the horn became more and more intense, the lantern that replaced the flag continued to swing and issue a military order, and the Shandong army pursuing from the left, center and right sides was also converging as soon as possible.

Liao Qing, who was in the midst of the defeated army, was angry and regretful in his heart, seeing that he had fallen into a catastrophe and suffered countless casualties, his whole body was already hairy, and then regardless of the persuasion of the soldiers around him, he turned his head again, brandished the Xuanhua axe in his hand and was about to do the final fight with the Song army, and he roared again and again: "Brothers, we are the elite of Wu State, how can we be afraid of him Song Army, kill me back, we have the possibility of winning!" Kill! ”

Under the influence of his leading soldiers, roaring and turning back to kill, he really regained the fighting spirit of some soldiers, and a team of three or four hundred people rushed back with him, and quickly exchanged hands with the Song army.

At the beginning, they took advantage of the blood and bravery, coupled with the defenselessness of the Song army, and actually let them kill the two teams. But as they rushed forward too much, they finally attracted the attention of several generals who were leading the army forward, among which Yang Zhi's reaction was the fastest, and he was also the closest to them.

Seeing such a crowd from the oblique stab, Liao Qing did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and immediately roared angrily, and raised the axe to meet the general, just as a sound, the two weapons collided together, and the two of them were stunned at the same time, but they realized that the enemy in front of them was not a good stubble.

Yang Zhi shouted again, and the Pu knife immediately rolled up, wanting to stir up the opponent's weapon, but Liao Qing also woke up in an instant, and immediately held the handle of the axe with both hands, and moved with the trend, but he was holding it steadily. The two weapons only turned seven or eight times, and finally they were exhausted and could only separate, and at the same time, the two of them also made a mistake and turned their backs to each other. After this head-to-head confrontation, these two fierce generals fought to a draw, and no one could help anyone. But in fact, it is really Yang Zhi who is slightly inferior, after all, the other party is injured.

But at the moment when the two were entangled, the soldiers and horses under the command of both sides had already divided the victory and defeat, and the Wu army, which could still fight, had been defeated. You must know that this team of hundreds of people dared to fight against the current because of Liao Qing's encouragement, once he was no longer in front of the head, its momentum quickly declined, and its momentum plummeted. On the contrary, the Shandong army that followed Yang Zhichong to kill was already accustomed to cooperating with each other, even if there was no general with them, under the command of their respective captains, they could still show extreme combat effectiveness, and in this frontal fight, they quickly suppressed the Wu army, killing them to flee and scatter, and the casualties were not small.

Liao Qing, who had just stabilized the war horse under his crotch, suddenly turned around and wanted to fight again, saw the scene that made his heart cold, and immediately stopped entanglement, and immediately grabbed the reins and fled to the side.

But at this moment, a familiar scream came from behind the side, which was the cry of Boss Hong, who was seriously injured when he was out of the city with him. This made Liao Qing's heart freak in the cold, and he changed direction again, and the horse rushed to that side, waving the long axe in his hand, and by the way, he cut down several ordinary soldiers who wanted to block his way.

Immediately, he saw a scene that made him angry and frightened, a Song general was holding a spear to encircle Boss Hong, no matter how he struggled to kill, it was difficult to get out of the heavy attack of this spear. And what is even more terrible is that his body is full of wounds, and the blood does not stop, which is all caused by the spear stabbing, although it is not a serious injury, but if it goes on like this, it will not be long before he will be completely bloodied and die.

"Boss Hong, I'm here to save you!" Liao Qing didn't hesitate at all, roared loudly, and already swung his axe to kill. But just as he was halfway through, a bow sounded, and a cold arrow was shot from the side, extremely fast, extremely accurate, and with an advance amount, as long as he continued to rush forward, he would hit himself right on the incoming arrow. This frightened him hurriedly lifted the reins, urgently pulled the war horse, and at the same time the axe in his hand quickly chopped out, and finally narrowly blocked the arrow.

But at this moment, the Song army, which had just been killed by its momentum, was surrounded again, and countless weapons attacked from all directions, mixed with a few cold arrows in the middle, so that Liao Qing could only swing the axe to resist first, but it was difficult to continue to move forward, and unconsciously, he had fallen into the siege of the Song army again, and struggled desperately to survive.

And Boss Hong was also in danger during his delay, and after barely blocking the endless spear stabbing, he was hit by a sudden cold arrow from the side, making him scream again, and the movement of his hand was also sluggish. And the Song general in front of him didn't give him any chance at all, the spear in his hand danced like a spiritual snake, suddenly swept up, and hit his heart with a pop, and then he picked him up directly from the horse, slammed him to the ground, and twitched.

The surrounding Song soldiers had also been waiting for this moment, and immediately more than a dozen people rushed up, held down Boss Hong with one hand, and took out a rope to tie him up. Just from the fact that he has a mount and can be entangled with his own general for so long, it can be seen that this is a heavy enemy general, so whether he can live or not, he will hold it first.

At this time, an exclamation sounded next to him: "Lin Jiaotou has a good move to spit out the letter of the spirit snake, it is really ruthless and wonderful!" ”

Lin Chong, who had finally taken down the enemy's first general, had already withdrawn his spear, and said with a smile: "This is also thanks to Brother Hua's divine help, otherwise I wouldn't be able to easily take it alive!" He was sure of his last shot, which seemed ferocious, but it was only a superficial wound, not fatal.

Hua Rong smiled beside him, and the bow and arrow in his hand were once again aimed at Liao Qing, who was still rushing left and right to get out. In order to help Lin Chong quickly defeat the enemy just now, he didn't put his mind on this guy who suddenly killed for the time being.

Liao Qing also immediately felt a great threat, this time there was no hesitation, desperately being slashed in his back by two soldiers with knives, or kicking the horse under his crotch, urging it to suddenly jump out of the encirclement, and then rush forward at full speed, allowing him to escape in this desperate situation.

Hua Rong's arrow also came at this time, but it only grazed his back, although it cut a not shallow wound, but after all, it was only a flesh wound. Liao Qing, who had seen and personally learned the terrible abilities of Lin Chong and Hua Rong, did not dare to stop at all, and immediately urged the horse to rush forward at full speed, just hoping to escape.

When he, the main general, was surrounded and intercepted, and his life hung by a thread several times, the Wu army under his command was in a bad situation, fleeing all the way, and some people fell along the way. Under the fierce pursuit of the Song army, they did not even organize a few effective counteroffensives, like Hong Laoda, the generals in the army, just shouted and wanted to gather troops and horses to defend, they would encounter the same Song army generals who led the army to rush over, and the result was that the generals were defeated, and the soldiers and horses under their command were broken head-on by the Song army in the case of a group of dragons without a leader, making the army even more chaotic, and many people would only turn around and run wildly, heading straight for Huzhou.

With almost the same number of troops, it took less than an hour for the entire Wu army to collapse. This battle alone is enough to prove how big the gap between the two armies is. It was only at this time that those Wu soldiers who were still in Huzhou City finally understood the good intentions of their boss, indeed, sticking to the city is the safest way to play.

But at this time, Pang Wanchun has changed his mind, under the sound of the order, the defenders in the city have all gathered together, as he drew his knife and pointed forward, the city gate also opened with a bang, he did not hesitate to fly on the horse, holding the glaive long knife, roared angrily: "Huzhou survival is here to fight, brothers, kill me and break the enemy!" Before the roar was over, he rode out of the city gate and crossed the drawbridge, which had not yet been fully settled.

The other soldiers saw that their commanders had already rushed out first, and even if they had any concerns, they could only fight to the death. Immediately, they roared angrily, rushing forward at full speed, and the suspension bridge kept creaking and rattling, as if it might be broken at any moment.

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Kill ......!"

The remaining more than 20,000 soldiers and horses mustered up the greatest courage, beat the trumpet, shouted and killed the sky, and rushed towards the Song army, which was getting closer and closer, without hesitation, and quickly met their own soldiers and horses who were being chased and killed.

Pang Wanchun, who rushed to the front, suddenly raised his knife and fell, and with a few smacks, he killed four or five deserters who were close to him on the spot, and then shouted: "In today's decisive battle, whoever dares to escape will be killed!" Everyone, turn back to me and kill back! ”

Only this kill, the soldiers under their command who almost broke their courage were shocked, and then, they saw the city gate open, and the remaining army was pouring out in an endless stream, which made their spirits suddenly shocked, I don't know whether they really had confidence, or they were forced by the situation, and they turned around one by one, raised their weapons, shouted loudly, and killed the Song army again.

Pang Wanchun is worthy of being the first general of the Wu army, even at the moment when the army collapsed, he was able to turn the tide and lead the troops to counterattack.

This is where the real decisive battle and contest begins.
