Volume 2 Heroes in Troubled Times Chapter 10 Winning the Central Plains Section 32

Chapter 10 Winning the Central Plains Section 32 In front of the Yuanmen, the Northern Frontier Army set up a horse and a deer barricade, and when the enemy passed, he would be killed by the crazy shooting of long arrows.

Ma Chao's iron rider suddenly split into three two hundred paces away from Yuanmen. One was led by Wang Rong and continued to rush forward to kill, but the speed was very slow, intending to attract the opponent's arrow array, while Ma Chao and Jiang Feng each carried an iron horse to attack along both sides of the barrier.

The Northern Frontier army rained down on arrows, and thousands of archers fired at the enemy outside the camp. Xiliang Tie rode a horse like flying, bravely rushing to kill, and the sound of killing shook the sky for a while.

He Feng stood in front of the battle array, closing his eyes and listening carefully to the roar outside the camp. Suddenly, his face changed slightly, and he turned around and shouted: "Urgently inform Wang Fang and Du Ping, the enemy cavalry is rushing from both wings, and they are about to break through the fence, please prepare to block it." The herald shouted in agreement, and his horse rushed into battle, galloping backwards.

"My lord, why did you put the Xiliang people in?" A tall and burly young soldier rode his horse close to He Feng and said loudly,

"We can rely on horses, deer barricades, and fences to keep the enemy out of the camp, so that our casualties will be greatly reduced." He Feng glanced at him, raised the horsewhip in his hand, turned around and pointed to the city in the distance,

"According to what you say, then we might as well retreat to the city and hold on, and the loss will be smaller." The young soldier heard He ***'s mockery, and his expression was quite embarrassed.

This soldier's name is Hao Zhao, who has followed He Feng for many years, fought bravely, and made many military exploits, and was very appreciated by He Feng.

It was precisely because of this that he dared to vent his dissatisfaction in front of He Feng.

"Bodao, the purpose of our battle is not to defend, not to keep the rebels out of the camp, but to attack, to kill the rebels under the city of ten thousand years." He Feng knocked Hao Zhao's helmet with a horsewhip and said solemnly,

"We set up the formation like this because we want to show weakness with defense, first draw out all the enemies, and drag all the enemies into the battlefield. Therefore we could neither retreat to the city, nor could we keep the enemy out of the camp with horses, deer, and tall and strong fences. When the enemy's intent to attack was fully revealed, we quickly turned into an offensive in defense, taking advantage of our slight superiority in strength to deliver a fatal blow to it. ”

"Do we have an advantage in troops?" Hao Zhao asked in surprise,

"Do we have any reinforcements?" He Feng glared at him,

"You kid is getting more and more presumptuous. That's what you asked? ”

"We suffered too many casualties in such a fight." Hao Zhao said excitedly,

"They could have been immortal."

"If you want to beat your opponents, if you want more people to live, someone has to make sacrifices." He Feng said coldly,

"You just have to remember two things, one is to attack, keep attacking, and the other is to kill, keep killing. Everything else has nothing to do with you. As soon as He Feng's words fell, the fence more than a hundred steps away on the left suddenly made a loud noise, and the fence was torn apart, and the broken board flew all over the sky.

Xiliang people rushed in.

"Boom...... Boom......" The ballistae of the Northern Xinjiang Army roared angrily, and the ground shook the mountains. On the upper floor of Wannian City, Xu Rong and Huangfu Li were engrossed in the dazzling firelight, and they turned a deaf ear to the fierce fighting on the battlefield.

When the Xiliang Iron Cavalry broke into the middle road, the soldiers on the city tower were shocked and anxious, and shouted in unison.

"My lord, the enemy cavalry has broken through the ......"

"My lord, the enemy cavalry has charged our battle formation......" Xu Rong pinched the chess pieces in his hand, turned his head and asked, "Is there any movement on the left and right flanks of the enemy army?" ”

"It's approaching, it's approaching." Chen Wei was anxious and shouted.

"Foot soldier or cavalry?"

"It's a pawn." Duan Xuan took a closer look at the smoke and dust rolling in the dark night, and said with great certainty,

"The enemy's iron cavalry on both flanks has stopped, waiting for the infantry army to attack first." Xu Rong slowly put the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard,

"Tell He Feng to retreat gradually, lure in the enemy cavalry in the middle, and let them cut off the connection between our left and right flanks."

"Brother Zilie, it's not dawn yet, isn't it too anxious?" Huangfu Li asked worriedly,

"If the middle lane retreats too quickly, it is likely that Han Sui will change the direction of the main attack."

"We rely on the city to set up the formation, and the Chinese army is placed in the city of ten thousand years, and he can't find a chance in the middle at all. If he wants to defeat us, he can only find a hole in the wings. Xu Rong smiled calmly,

"We first surrounded the attacking enemy forces in the middle lane, and Han Sui had no choice but to rush in all his troops. In this way, we can counterattack. "Five thousand Yuan troops, under the command of Jiao Touch, took the lead in attacking the left flank of the Northern Xinjiang Army.

They roared all the way, rushed through the arrow array, and toppled the fence. The ballistae of the Northern Frontier Army gave them a head-on blow.

Sharp bolts pierced the shield, and hundreds of enemies fell to the ground screaming loudly, but many more rushed up, surging like a tidal wave.

Hua Xiong stood at the forefront, the shield in his hand made a muffled sound, and the three spears that flew from him were blocked by him one by one, and the raised war knife swept through the air like lightning, and blood shot out in an instant.

An enemy had his throat slit, half of his cheek chopped off, and a severed hand swaying in the air, bloody and eerie.

The moment this severed hand fell, Hua Xiong roared angrily, and the bloody round shield smashed the enemy who was holding the severed arm and screaming miserably.

"Kill...... Kill them for me......" The soldiers in Northern Xinjiang were inspired by the courage of the main general, and their morale was like a rainbow, and they fought bloodily.

The order that Jiao Touch received was to break through the camp of the Northern Xinjiang Army and firmly contain the Northern Xinjiang Army, so as to respond to the attack of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry from the flank.

Originally, he thought that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry would be killed later, but who knew that he had been killing in front for a long time and did not hear the roar of the Iron Cavalry army galloping.

Seeing that his men had fallen on the battlefield one after another, and the army gradually seemed to be defeated, he was anxious and angry, scolded loudly, and took his personal guards to kill them desperately.

The scorching touch is brave, and the spear flies up and down, invincible. Under his leadership, the soldiers fought fiercely, immediately gained a firm foothold, and launched a fierce offensive against the Northern Frontier Army.

Hua Xiong rushed towards the enemy's

Arrows. He and a dozen guards formed a sharp attack formation, colliding head-on with Jiao Touch.

The two sides fought to the death. Hua Xiong killed two people in a row, flew in front of Jiao Touch, and raised his knife to chop. Jiao Touch's spear blocked horizontally, and kicked Hua Xiong's crotch, and almost at the same time, the enemy soldier behind Jiao Touch raised his crossbow and aimed it at Hua Xiong.

Hua Xiong stared at the blood-red eyes, only his head was scorched, and he didn't see the enemy's sneak attack at all.

The guards on his side were quick and flew away. Three bolts pierced his body in an instant, and Scorched Touch's flying leg kicked his corpse into the air.

"Kill ......" Hua Xiong's eyes were about to split, and he slashed on the handle of the spear, and the knife was broken. Without waiting for Jiao Touch to react, the crazy Hua Xiong followed with an unbelievable speed and was a punch.

Jiao Touch couldn't dodge, his eyes were dark, and blood flowed like a torrent of blood.

"Die......" Hua Xiong ran through his head and slammed into it with all his strength. The scorched touch was like being struck by lightning, and he fainted immediately.

Hua Xiong stretched out his right hand and grabbed his neck. Then he snatched his spear with one hand, and with a roar of the tiger, he pierced through the enemy who had attacked him head-on.

The enemy pawn was throwing off the crossbow and raising his knife to slash, although Hua Xiong pierced it with a spear, but the enemy pawn was extremely strong, and he still flew a step, thundering and slashing, which was overwhelming.

Hua Xiong couldn't hide, so he had to use all his strength to pull Jiao Touch in front of him. A puddle of blood shot up, splashing Hua Xiong's head and face.

The scorched man's head fell to the ground. The southeast side of the battlefield. Gao Gan was stationed high on the horse, closely watching the battlefield of flesh and blood.

Suddenly, the scorched battle flag fell. Gao Gan's heart was suffocated, and his soul flew out of the sky,

"Hurry, hurry, tell Xia Zhao urgently, lead people to rush up, rush up, stabilize your position, you must stabilize ......"

"Urgently tell Liang Xing, play with horses, the iron cavalry will be dispatched immediately, and ...... will be dispatched immediately" Several heralds rushed into the darkness like a few heralds.

"Jiao is too careless, how can he rush to the front in person?" Xin Bi was sad and indignant, and shook his hands again and again,

"Urgently tell Lord Han and ask him to urge the Qiang people to attack immediately, otherwise we won't be able to stop it, and we will pull all the main forces up."

"Don't rush, don't rush, we can stop it." Above shouted loudly,

"The main force of the right flank army of the Northern Xinjiang Army has not yet been launched, and they obviously know that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry will attack immediately, so they have been waiting for it. Now it is only their front army that is fighting with us, and there are not many of them. In order to prevent us from attacking their main phalanx and giving Xiliang Tieqi a chance to take advantage of, these people are also fighting desperately and bloodily, and they will not retreat a single step. ”

"Why don't these damn Qiang people attack?" Gao Gan turned his head to look at the dark depths, his eyes full of murderous intent.

Seven miles southeast of Wannian City. Liang Xing was so anxious that he was in a hurry. Ma Yu tugged at his short beard, stared coldly at the three Qiang handsomes sitting on the ground, and said slowly, "It's time for us to attack." ”

"You don't have eyes." Chang Chang said very angrily,

"The Northern Xinjiang Army has already set up a phalanx, and more than 10,000 of us rushed forward, purely looking for death. If you go, we won't. ”

"Let your foot men tear the phalanx apart first." Xudu stood up, pointed to the battlefield in the distance, and said,

"You have 40,000 troops on the right flank, why don't you attack them all? You want to preserve your strength, but you want us to send us to death, hum......"

"If all the troops of the infantry rush forward now, the direction of the main attack will be exposed, and the people of Northern Xinjiang can send the main force to kill it immediately." Liang Xingsan walked up to him in two steps, waved his hands and said,

"At the moment, we don't know how many Northern Frontier Iron Cavalry there are on the other side. If there are 20,000 iron horsemen on the opposite side, don't you know what the consequences will be if these 40,000 people rush forward? ”

"We only have 12,000 iron horsemen here, and if we face the other party's 20,000 iron horsemen, we will definitely suffer a great loss." The ink rope jumped up from the ground, stared at a pair of big eyes and shouted,

"How many Iron Riders are on the other side? Do you really know it? ”

"They only have 20,000 people at most." Ma Yu pretended to think for a moment, and then said with a serious face,

"These 20,000 iron horsemen have to protect the left, center, and right lanes at the same time, so we only have about five or six thousand iron horsemen on the opposite side. All we have to do is lure them out and crush them, and we will win the battle. Chang Chang watched Liang Xing and the horse play thoughtfully, walked to the side alone, bowed his head and pondered.

The ink rope and the punishment followed left and right.

"He's lying to us, there must be a lot of Northern Frontier Iron Riders on the other side." Ink Rope whispered.

"If there are a lot of Northern Frontier Iron Cavalry, they won't dare to fight this battle." Xudu said,

"I think they just want us to die. The phalanx of the Northern Xinjiang Army was very powerful, and Beigong Boyu, June Thunder, and Tuoba Feng were all defeated under this phalanx. ”

"Zhu Du is right, since Lord Han dares to fight this battle, he must be completely sure. In addition, we all promised Lord Han that we could not go back on our word. Chang Chang thought for a while and said,

"We followed them. If we rush to kill the phalanx, we will stop and resolutely not fight. ”

"Woo woo ......" The passionate horn sounded through the night, and the Xiliang Iron Rider started slowly. Northwest of the battlefield.

Li Kan rushed into the right flank of the Northern Xinjiang Army with 5,000 Xiliang infantry soldiers and engaged in a fierce battle with Li Yao's army.

Han Sui saw that the time was ripe, and ordered Yang Qiu and Cheng Yi to follow the army of foot soldiers with eight thousand iron cavalry and rush into the battlefield.

The darkness suddenly disappeared, and dawn crept in. Zhang Bai rode outside the phalanx, looked up at the gray sky, and waited patiently for the blue sky to open.

The morning air was a little humid, with a choking smell of smoke, a strong smell of burnt firewood, and a faint breeze that sent wisps of blood to all corners, making people shudder.

The war horse on which Zhang Bai sat suddenly became restless, and from time to time he raised his neck and neighed, and then a puff of smoke and dust swept out from the sky.

Xiliang Tie rode here. The drums of the war in the phalanx were beating, and the flags were flying, and the soldiers of the northern frontier who were fighting bloodily on the battlefield also began to retreat gradually, trying to get closer to the phalanx.

The long sound of trumpets and the drums of war became more and more intense, and the roar of the galloping iron horses drowned out all the sounds on the battlefield.

Xu Rong picked up a chess piece and didn't put it down for a long time.

"My lord, Yang Ming and Liu Ming sent people to ask, when will the iron cavalry attack?" Chen Wei's voice quietly sounded in Xu Rong's ears.

"Has the Xiliang Iron Cavalry started to charge into the phalanx?"

"Nope." Chen Wei said,

"They slowed down, as if intent on encircling our blocking armies on both flanks." Xu Rong frowned and put down the chess pieces,

"Order Yang Ming and Liu Ming to lead the army to attack." The horn sounded. By the Baiqu River, the 5,000-degree Liao soldiers flew on their horses and were ready to go.

Yang Ming swallowed the food in his mouth, raised his head and drank a sip of cold water, and then he raised the water bladder and let the cold river water sprinkle his head and face.

"Brothers, follow me to kill the enemy......" Liu Ming suddenly killed from the flank of the Xiliang people with five thousand Xiongnu elites, as if a knife was cut obliquely, which caught the Xiliang people off guard, and immediately split into two.

"Rapid attack, rapid attack and kill......" Liu Ming raised his sword and roared wildly,

"Cut them off, cut them off." At this moment, he saw Xudu. Xudu is leading the men and horses to kill in reverse.

Liu Ming did not hesitate at all, returned the sword to the sheath, picked up the horn bow and shot it. One bow and three arrows, roaring out.
