"Hey, hey...... Hey, hey, ha......"
The shield array formed by the sword and shield soldiers in the front row of the White Dragon Army, holding the shield and humming a very rhythmic tune in their mouths, moved forward for a short distance, and then re-erected the shield on the ground.

Then the shield is slightly deflected, and the pikemen behind will stab their spears from below along the gap, causing more damage to the officers and soldiers in front.
After the White Dragon Army began to advance again, these officers and soldiers finally couldn't bear this pressure.
The fierceness of the White Dragon Army left them with unforgettable memories for a lifetime, and there were still some fierce officers and soldiers who were not convinced, and they always wanted to try to break through the shield array in front of them and kill into the pikemen array.
After all, if they could do that, getting close to these pikemen would be a massacre in their eyes.
However, all the officers and soldiers who thought and did so were already dead and became part of the corpse pile.
The shield array in front of them was like an iron wall, they couldn't break it, and the rigorous training of these sword and shield soldiers of the White Dragon Army for months was not in vain.
At this point, there are no more brave officers and soldiers who dare to confront the edge of the White Dragon Army head-on.
Seeing that the White Dragon Army began to advance like a wall again, the remaining officers and soldiers who were still alive finally collapsed completely, and they turned back without looking back, and they were defeated.
"Whoever asked you to retreat, the general didn't come down and retreat, no one was allowed to retreat, and Lao Tzu rushed up." A member of Qi Lin's family in the back roared loudly when he saw the defeated officers and soldiers.
"***, let you escape, go back to Lao Tzu." This Qi Lin family member casually cut down an officer and soldier who was fleeing with his head bored, his face trembled, and he roared angrily.
This Qi Lin family leader lined up behind the officers and soldiers, and there were hundreds of family members who acted as a team of supervisors, and their task was to supervise the battle.
Seeing that the officers and soldiers were defeated like a tide, these Qi Lin family members who supervised the war directly blocked them, and cut down several officers and soldiers with swords in their hands, forcing them to turn around and go back to block the rebellious army.
However, these officers and soldiers are also human beings, and just now they were afraid of military law and these overseers, so they had to meet the enemy in the front line.
Now seeing that Jiang Li, who led them, has died in front of the battle, and the rebel army is unstoppable at all, they are not the opponent of the chaotic army at all, and if they rush up, they will just go to death.
So at this moment, they just wanted to flee for their lives, even if the overseer team was fierce, they couldn't care about it so much, and there were still more and more people, retreating towards the back.
One of the generals of the Overseer's team roared and threatened the officers and soldiers, blocking their way back.
However, suddenly, a short spear flew from behind, hitting the face of the general of the Overseer team, and shot the general of the Qi Lin family to the ground on the spot.
"What's the matter, what are you, when Lao Tzu was a soldier, you were still wearing open crotch pants, if you dare to cut Lao Tzu's soldiers, Lao Tzu will kill you.
I know that the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, Lao Tzu killed the enemy in blood, but you stabbed in the back, and you can't see that the brothers have suffered heavy casualties! ”
A middle-aged man in a shabby cotton armor rushed over from behind and cursed at the corpse of the fallen Qi Lin general, who had thrown the short spear just now.
This middle-aged man's name is Wei Yong, but he is a thousand generals under Qi Lin, and he is also a violent temper, and he was angry on the spot when he saw that Qi Lin's family general just cut him to death one of his subordinates.
This guy is a well-known murderer under Qi Lin, no one dares to provoke him, but at the same time, he is also extremely fierce in battle, and likes to personally lead people to the front.
Because of his fiery temper, Wei Yong often disobeyed Qi Lin's discipline, and he did not have the same awe of Qi Lin as other officers and generals.
So Qi Lin loved and hated him, if he hadn't seen him fighting bravely, he would have been taken down a long time ago.
At this time, with Wei Yong, the general manager of Qian, taking the lead, these defeated officers and soldiers, the anger accumulated at this time, against these supervising teams, finally broke out.
Anyway, they also have guys in their hands, so why should they be afraid of the Qi Lin family of these overseers? Anyway, they don't want to turn back and face those demons.
Then things were much simpler, with this Wei Yongqian taking the lead, other officers and soldiers also took action, and more Qi Lin family members were knocked to the ground.
Immediately, more and more routs poured over, and they also attacked these warlords, and the situation suddenly became even more chaotic.
That is, in the blink of an eye, the large group of officers and soldiers who had been defeated from the front suddenly drowned the family members who supervised the battle in the crowd.
These Qi family members who supervised the war never thought that the officers and soldiers who were being beaten in a hurry would suddenly attack them at this time.
Therefore, many people were caught off guard, and as a result, these officers and soldiers who were swarmed up killed a lot on the spot, and the rest of the Qi family members saw that the situation was not good, so they turned around and ran.
No one is going to stop these defeated officers and soldiers, whoever likes to run away, anyway, they can't control it.
As a result, the rout army was enveloping these Qi family members who supervised the battle, and in an instant, like a flood that broke the embankment, it surged towards the direction where Qi Lin was in the rear.
Qi Lin, who was immediately in the official and military formation, was not far away, and of course he also saw the scene just now.
I don't know if he was angry or frightened, his hands trembled, looking at the battle situation in front of him, listening to the screams, raising his hand to the defeated officers and soldiers and scolding.
"Bold, bastard, it's all a bunch of waste, they can't even stop the chaotic army, and they dare to attack and kill Lao Tzu's supervision team, are you planning to rebel?
Wei Yong, you dare to kill Lao Tzu's general, Lao Tzu has to deal with you by military law. Qi Lin was furious and shouted angrily at Wei Yong, who rushed over.
"Lord Qi, it's not us who use our strength, you have also seen it, this chaotic army is too strong, where is this pole, the weapons and equipment are better than ours, and the military appearance is neater than ours.
I really tried my best, I want Lao Tzu to put his life on the battlefield, but there is no way, Lao Tzu still has an old lady to support at home, Lao Tzu does not expect the court to serve the mother of the old man after Lao Tzu's death. ”
Wei Yong faced Qi Lin's accusation, and Zhan responded not far away, continuing to flee with a group of defeated soldiers.
"My lord, the situation is critical, this battle can't be fought, let's withdraw too, otherwise we will be in danger."
Ma Feng rode up to Qi Lin and said eagerly.
Of course, Qi Lin could also see that they had lost this battle, and they had lost very badly, but he was still unwilling to give the order to retreat.
He hoped that at this time, the White Dragon Army would become proud and spread out to pursue the fleeing officers and soldiers under his command.
When the time comes, he will lead Ma Feng's cavalry team and his two hundred guards to rush forward, and he may be able to recover the decline.
After all, Qi Lin's old eyes could see at a glance that the White Dragon Army was powerful, and it was powerful in this kind of military formation.
Once the White Dragon soldiers dispersed the ranks, he was completely sure that he would rely on three hundred cavalry and two hundred family soldiers to disperse this chaotic army.
It's a pity that the White Dragon Army didn't give Qi Lin this opportunity, and the White Dragon Army infantry still maintained an orderly queue even if they were chasing the enemy.
Even if they can't catch up with the fleeing enemy, they won't break up in formation.
"Hey, let's get out."
Qi Lin saw that the White Dragon Army was still maintaining a tight formation at this time, not chaotic at all, and did not give him a chance to fight back at all, sighed, and gave the order to retreat.
The remaining 300 cavalry under his command at this time, as well as the 200 personal soldiers of the family, can be regarded as the most essential part of his subordinates, and they must not be lost again.
The White Dragon Army's formation followed closely behind the rout, like a black torrent, stepping over the corpses left behind by the officers and soldiers who were all over the ground.
But the formation still did not disperse, and it still maintained a neat formation, just grabbing the buttocks of the defeated officers and soldiers, chasing and killing them.
However, the speed of the White Dragon Army's march in formation was certainly not the speed at which these routs went down and fled desperately.
Therefore, at this time, it is impossible to rely only on the White Dragon Army's infantry to catch up with these defeated officers and soldiers.
At this time, Li Zixiao saw a man wearing iron armor on the opposite side, who was guarded by many cavalrymen, turned his horse and turned his head, as if he was also about to escape.
This person looks at the armor he wears, he is better than everyone else, it must be the supreme commander of this officer and soldier, yes, it is estimated that he is the guerrilla general who led the team in the intelligence.
Li Zixiao didn't want such a big fish to run away, so he sneered and said, "Someone came to send an order to Luo Chao and Qi Wei, it's time for their cavalry team to go out."
Let the two of them lead their respective cavalry teams, and let me go around from the left and right, and be sure to leave the official cavalry for Lao Tzu and catch the officer in iron armor.
Then he sent an order to Han Tong, asking him to lead the brothers of the scout team to kill them as well, chase down those officers and soldiers who fled, slowly bleed them, and allow them to return after chasing them for ten miles.
If you meet the main army coming behind the official army in advance, you will return early, but don't lose manpower to Lao Tzu, it will be worth the loss. ”
This kind of specific order cannot be conveyed by the order number and the standard-bearer, and there is a special herald responsible for conveying Li Zixiao's military order.
As soon as the herald received the order, he turned his horse and rushed out, and at the same time three red letter cannons were raised in the army.
Basically, the role of the signal flare similar to that of later generations is to inform Luo Chao, Qi Wei and Han Tong that it is time for them to play.
The White Dragon Army, which was originally slowly pressing forward, also began to transform into a marching army at this time, closely chasing the officers and soldiers who were routed in front of them, and strode to catch up.
Qi Wei, Luo Chao and Han Tong all rode horses and waited behind the battlefield, quietly watching the development of the situation on the battlefield.
Since this group of officers and troops rushed over, he Han Tong had collected most of his scouts.
Only a team of scouts was sent to find the location of the main force of the official army, but it is estimated that in a short period of time, the main force of the official army behind will not be able to catch up.
