More than 1,000 heavy cavalry armor was hung on the side of the Qili Bridge in the afternoon, the black and heavy armor was stained with blood, and some were no longer in shape, supported by wooden poles, densely like a black forest standing outside the town by the bridge. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

As Jiang Heiniu expected, after the armor of the ironclad heavy cavalry was erected outside the town, there was a lot of commotion in the town, and many soldiers climbed from the hidden place to the roof and other high places, looking at this side, the panic on their faces could not be concealed.

If these still made Luo Peiteng not completely desperate, then Meng Yixuan was tied up and hung outside the town, which made his heart fall to the bottom, Meng Yixuan's capture shows that a thousand ironclad heavy cavalry, three thousand rangers and one thousand charioteers have all been wiped out, and he has become a lone army in Qiaobian Town.

Guard, there is no food and grass inside, morale floats, retreat, you can also think with your ass, the retreat will evolve into a rout at any time, under the pursuit of the Dingzhou Iron Cavalry, there will be few of the more than 10,000 elite soldiers left.

"General Luo, I have a way!" A general whispered.

"What do you do?" Luo Peiteng's eyes lit up, and he rushed to the doctor, no matter what method there is now, it is better than no way.

"The Dingzhou soldiers now have an absolute advantage in terms of strength, and because of the destruction of our ironclad heavy cavalry, the morale of the soldiers has fallen to a low point, and they have no heart to fight to the death. The bias will be analyzed.

"Getting to the point!" Luo Peiteng said dissatisfied, would he not be clear about these things?

"Yes!" The general dared to say tightly: "The Dingzhou Ruijian Battalion has a large number of heavy weapons, if they forcibly attack, stone bullets and strong crossbows will come in, and it will be difficult for us to defend, but the other party actually did not do this, which shows that they have scruples." "Partial general.

"What scruples?" Luo Peiteng asked.

"Ordinary people!" "There are more than 10,000 civilians in Qiaobian Town, and the Dingzhou soldiers did not use these heavy weapons to attack, which shows that they are unwilling to accidentally injure the people here, haven't they always claimed to love the people like sons, stone bullets and heavy crossbows are flying, but there is no distinction between soldiers and people, in this case, why don't we take advantage of this?" ”

"What do you mean by exploitation?" Luo Peiteng said suspiciously.

"We must retreat, but we can retreat with these people, and we can mix them in our ranks, so that the opponent will not dare to let go of the attack, so that we can retreat slowly, but we can ensure a safe departure." Partial generals.

Luo Peiteng's eyes lit up, what the general said was indeed an idea, if the Dingzhou Army really cared about this, then this would be a good way.

"You go down first and prepare for the retreat, let me think about this again!" Luo Peiteng waved his hand.

Seeing the faint general retreat, the lieutenant officer beside Luo Peiteng said in a low voice: "General Luo, do you have to think twice about this matter?" ”

Luo Peiteng looked at the Chinese officer, "What's the matter, this is indeed a good way, if the Dingzhou Army really cares, we can indeed get out!" ”

The middle officer looked outside and whispered, "Does General Luo remember Liao Bin?" ”

Luo Peiteng's heart froze, "You mean Liao Bin, who was ordered by Li Qing to cut through Quanzhou City with a thousand knives?" ”

The lieutenant officer nodded, "General Luo knows that Li Qing is very tolerant of most of the former commanders of the conquered lands, but why does he hate Liao Bin so much?" Not only do you want to kill him quickly, but you also want to put him to death? ”

Luo Peiteng's face suddenly sweated, "When Liao Bin retreated, he ordered the burning of Quanzhou City. ”

"Yes, Liao Bin ordered the smell of gunpowder to burn the whole city, which did block the Dingzhou army, but the fire also burned to death the 100,000 people in Quanzhou.

To this day, Jeonju City has not returned to its old look. ”

"If General Luo also retreats with the people today, and the Dingzhou army attacks desperately, then the people will suffer heavy casualties, who do you say Li Qing will put on this account?" Zhongcao official road.

Luo Peiteng was silent.

"Forgive the last general to say something that should not be said, now Dingzhou and Luoyang are competing for hegemony, it is difficult to say who wins and who loses, if once Li Qing wins, then how can the general deal with himself in the future, even if the general is not afraid of death and life, he is not afraid of disaster to his family?"

Luo Peiteng stood up upset, "I didn't want to wrap up the people, but the lives of more than 10,000 soldiers? ”

The lieutenant officer was silent for a long time and said, "General Luo, the last general thinks that no matter what, it is better to leave a way back." Liao Bin's lessons from the past must not be careless. ”

Luo Peiteng sat down slowly, "I know, you can go down too, let me be quiet and think about it." ”

"Yes!" The lieutenant officer bowed and withdrew.

Under the strict monitoring of the Dingzhou Army, there was no movement in Qiaobian Town all night, but in the early morning of the next day, the rumbling war drums in Qiaobian Town rang out, and Li Feng and Jiang Heiniu hurried to the front line, but saw a group of enemy troops driving out of Qiaobian Town and setting up a formation in the distance.

Jiang Heiniu couldn't help but be surprised.

Li Feng laughed loudly, "Old Jiang, you miscalculated, this Luo Peiteng is a master, and he actually wants to fight with our army!" Strange, in this case, why didn't he use the terrain of the town by the bridge to deal with our army, but instead drove out of the town to fight a decisive battle with the superior forces of our army, could it be that this guy was dizzy? ”

Jiang Heiniu squinted his eyes and looked at the other party's gradually forming formation, shook his head and said, "General Li, no, the troops they have set aside are only more than 5,000 h, I understand." ”

"What do you understand?"

"Look!" Jiang Heiniu pointed to the other side of Qiaobian Town, and at this time, in that direction, smoke and dust were rising, and another army was leaving rapidly from behind.

Li Feng said in surprise: "Luo Peiteng actually personally took on the interception task, so that the other department could retreat?" ”

"If Luo Peiteng leaves, the morale of the army will be chaotic, but if he stays here, he will be able to control the soldiers to the greatest extent and gather morale!" Jiang Heiniu said: "As General Li said, this is a character, not only has commendable courage, but also does not want the war to affect the people, and is also a benevolent general, if it is not for the enemy and me, I would like to hand over such a character!" ”

Li Feng laughed, "In my opinion, this is a foolish approach, Lao Jiang, since you want to hand him over, this person, we will capture him alive and hand him over to you, how about it, will you come first or I will come first?" ”

Jiang Heiniu smiled, pointed to the other party's strict army, and said: "It's better for me to come first, the Luo army is tight, and there is no flaw in the defensive line composed of chariots, I will first strike with heavy ordnance, and then use infantry to pounce on it and tear it apart." Son, and so on disrupted their formation, General Li was defeated with a single blow of cavalry. ”

"It's good!" Li Feng nodded and said, "I'll make the cavalry run again to relieve some pressure for your frontal breakthrough." ”

Luo Peiteng thought about it all night, and finally decided to give up the action of wrapping up the people of the association and fleeing, as the Chinese officer said, the Dingzhou army will never give up the opportunity to eliminate its own department, even if it is wrapped in the people, the other party will definitely still attack, but after the war, this account will be recorded on himself, even if he dies, he does not want to fall into the fate of Liao Bin, not only he suffers all kinds of suffering, but also harms his family. He decided to personally lead half of his troops to block the attack, while the faint general led the other army to retreat.

Standing under the banner of the Chinese army, seeing the Dingzhou army erecting trebuchets one by one, and the eight-bull crossbows being pushed up, he raised his war knife high, "Prepare for defense!" ”

In order to resist the opponent's heavy weapons, Luo Peiteng almost dismantled the door panels and bed boards in the town by the bridge, nailed them into hollow frames, and made the soldiers fall under them, reducing casualties as much as possible.

As the rapid sound of war drums on the opposite side suddenly stopped, countless stone bullets and crossbows appeared in the air, and the loud sound of the two firing instantly drowned out all other sounds.

"Dingzhou Army, Wansheng!" With the roar of the trebuchet and the roar of the eight-bull crossbow, the soldiers of the Ruijian battalion let out a roar and charged towards Luobe.

Li Feng's two cavalry jumped out one left and one right, galloping forward, and the soldiers drew their bows and arrows, and when the galloping horses swept past the opponent's formation, they shot sharp arrows on the strings with a bang.

Stone bullets, the eight-bull crossbow ruthlessly destroyed all the protective equipment carefully set up by Luo Peiteng, a hollow wooden frame was smashed by the stone bullets, just one round of shooting, these protective equipment were all destroyed, and once the chariots that formed the annular defensive position were hit by the eight-bull crossbow head-on, the huge impact force should make these chariots either roll over or fall apart.

The second round of shooting followed, and in the middle of the military formation, the screams were repeated, and the blood splashed from time to time, compared to the weapons flying from the sky, it was the soldiers of the Ruijian Battalion who rushed in like a tsunami on the opposite side of the mountain that caused more pressure on the soldiers.

Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps, and with a crash, sharp arrows flew like rain in the military formation, piercing the rushing Ruijian camp, and the soldiers who were running were also shot down in rows, but the successors were not moved at all, and continued to shout and charge forward.

Jiang Qingniu ran backwards and inserted two feather arrows on the first shoulder and helmet, trembling as he ran, holding a shield, Jiang Qingniu excitedly dragged his knife and ran wildly, ten steps, five steps, he roared, jumped up, flew up with a shield, and jumped on the chariot.

"Kill!" He let out a strange scream. Several spears poked at the shield, and the huge force of the shock made him almost fall on his back, and the shield was tightly attached to his body, and he turned halfway, trying to counteract the strength, and swung forward with the steel knife in his opponent, cutting off the shaft of the spear, and squeezing forward, he had jumped out of the chariot and killed the man.

Luo Peiteng's 5,000 foot horses were attacked by the Dingzhou army from three directions, and the soldiers of the Ruijian battalion were like bursts of waves, constantly impacting his defensive line, but in half an hour, the military formation had been torn open several openings, and in these torn openings, the soldiers of the Ruijian battalion were constantly rushing in, expanding the results to the left and right.

The soldiers of the Yizhou battalion who were shooting on both wings kept pouring sharp arrows in, shooting down rows of soldiers on the periphery.

"Shrink." Luo Peiteng waved the command flag, this was a battle to the death, and all he had to do was to buy more time for the retreating troops.
