A few months ago, the Central Plains thieves captured Xuchang, burned down the palace city, and looted the treasures and materials accumulated by the Han and Wei dynasties. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ. The thief Kou Doma was originally quick and fast, and after controlling the more than 100,000 pieces of armor equipment in the Xuchang arsenal, he was even more powerful, greatly enhancing his combat effectiveness.

At this time, the knights who rushed into the swamp to expel the archers of the Jin army were the 'elite' of this kind of well-equipped thief army. Most of them were wearing iron armor, some of them used 'fine' iron lances that were six feet long, and some wielded all kinds of heavy weapons that they were accustomed to, and the sound of hundreds of horses running converged like continuous rolling thunder, and its power shook the earth. They were still hundreds of steps away, but even the water in front of Lin Yi trembled.

The archers of the Youzhou army, under the impact of the enemy cavalry, were about to collapse at the touch of a button, and ran wildly 'chaotic'. So the thieves chased everywhere, and the seemingly huge queue was thrown into the vast reeds, and the stars were not clear.

Lin Yi took more than 100 steps forward, bent down behind a reed, and took a bow and arrow in his hand; Wang Gang and several other soldiers followed suit, and they were also hidden in the left vicinity.

As soon as the arrangements were made, the stream in front of them rattled, and the two horsemen rushed towards them. Lin Yi and the others stretched out their bows and arrows, and kept 'shooting' from several directions, and immediately 'shot' them to death. However, after a short time, the enemy cavalry arrived in a big way, and the enemy and us were 'intermingling' and 'mingling', and the sound of killing in all directions was deafening.

Lin Yi and the others had to fight with spears, and fought and retreated.

An ironclad knight assaulted from the side, and Lin Yi stabbed with a spear, hitting the knight's front 'chest'. Unexpectedly, the knight's armor was extremely heavy, and under the impact of the two compartments, he actually broke the spear in Lin Yi's hand into two pieces and flew straight into the air.

Lin Yi stumbled to the ground and wanted to stand up with his hands on the ground, but he felt a sharp pain like a tear in his left shoulder, and fell again.

The knight had been knocked off his horse by the force of the impact, and had fallen heavily into the mud. At this time, he staggered and got up, pulled out his waist knife and approached Lin Yi. No, Wang Gang went around behind him and pounced, stabbing through the gap between the armor and the helmet with a short knife, cutting the back of his neck.

The 'fierce' fight here attracted the attention of the enemy riders a little farther away, and another rider came rushing with shouts.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Yi grabbed the spear with one hand and stabbed it at the war horse that came to ride. The enemy rider hurriedly reined in his horse to dodge, and when the horse under the seat and Lin Yi staggered by, he waved the ring knife in his palm with his backhand and slashed. Lin Yi struggled in the muddy water and rolled around, dodging the blade. The knight shouted angrily, and turned his horse back after him.

A Jin sergeant saw that Lin Yi was embarrassed, and rushed to help him in the oblique stab, and before he could get close, an arrow flew from nowhere, hitting the center of his eyebrows. The soldier died on his back.

Lin Yi didn't care about others, and went straight to the depths of the muddy grass to hide. The knight rode in pursuit, and suddenly the horse's hooves sank into the mud, and he could not advance or retreat, and his vision was obscured by the reeds that grew in front of him. At this moment, Wang Gang jumped up from the reeds and cut off the horse's 'legs' with a single sword.

The knight turned over and fell off his horse, and before he could get up, Lin Yi flew and pounced on him to the ground. Wang Gang swung his knife and slashed his head and face, and if he went down more than a dozen times in a row, the knight would have died a long time ago. Even the blade of the long knife had several gaps in the collision with the hard skull; Wang Gang put the knife into the sheath, because his arm was out of force, and he tried several times before he succeeded.

The two sat opposite each other, and after a little breathing, they found that each other's uniforms and armor had been dyed red, and their faces were covered with blood and mud, and even their faces were difficult to distinguish.

As experienced fighters, both of them cherished the brief silence in this fierce battle, and neither of them spoke, just half lying down and half sitting to recover their strength. After a while, Lin Yi said: "Although the thieves are fierce, they are indeed not as agile as us in fighting in this quagmire. After that, you have to lure the thief into the depths before you can do it. ”

Wang Gang nodded heavily, and the two of them packed up their knives and guns, and advanced again along the reeds.

At this time, Mai Zeming's Chinese soldiers were also put into battle.

Mai Zeming and his cronies Geng Luo, Liu Gui, and Mai Shiping all wore light armor and fought on foot. These people are all heroic warriors who can fight and are accustomed to war, and they have fought side by side for many years, and they have a tacit understanding. They raised their swords and spears together, and knocked down the enemy horses that appeared in front of them one by one.

When he was in the middle of the battle, he saw a group of heavily armored knights rushing along the earthen embankment. The first person is dressed in iron armor painted in dark black 'color', with a neck guard, and a hideous beast pattern painted on the iron pocket, with a tall horse under the crotch, and the horse body is also covered with heavy armor, making it difficult for swords and guns to penetrate. The soldiers of Youzhou looked at it from a distance, and they all felt that it was difficult to deal with, and they all said: "This must be a thief who can defeat 10,000 people!" ”

This team of heavily armored knights galloped and rammed, and the Jin soldiers who had no time to dodge were knocked out; Those who wanted to resist were slapped on all sides by the fierce general at the head. This man is infinitely large and very agile. None of the soldiers who went to resist could support Yihe, and there were heavy casualties in an instant.

"Stand back! Back off! Mai Zeming chanted repeatedly.

The Youzhou army was already loosely arrayed, and when they heard the order, everyone retreated to the depths of the reeds. The heavily armored knights chased after a few steps, but the horses' hooves were stuck in the mire and could barely be pulled out. The group hurriedly turned their horses and turned back to the earthen embankment.

The Youzhou soldiers took the opportunity to stretch their bows and 'shoot' on several sides. The arrows struck the knights, and most of them bounced off; Some of the 'inserted' iron armor did not seem to cause serious damage. The knights only stepped back slightly, and then immediately took the horn bow and 'shot', and the two sides were at a stalemate for a while.

"Who's that?" Mai Zeming asked with a frown. Although the general combat quality of the thieves is far inferior to that of the Youzhou Army, among the hundreds of thousands, there are inevitably a few talented people who should not be underestimated.

Liu Guidao: "It should be the sorghum under Wang Mi." This person commands heavy cavalry, is good at charging into battle, and is as famous as Wang Yan. ”

Wang Yan was the fierce general of the thief army who came to challenge when the Youzhou army crossed the river and was finally killed by Hu Xiu. Hearing this person's name, Mai Zeming was stunned and sighed: "There are many thieves, and the battle situation is changing rapidly, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate to go on like this...... It's a pity that Nahuxiu is not here. ”

Mai Shiping is a member of Mai Zeming's clan and is known to be good at 'shooting'. Hearing that the winner would praise Hu Xiu, he said excitedly: "When I dive closer, I will kill him with one arrow!" ”

Mai Zeming nodded.

Mai Shiping and a few of his subordinates slowly approached under the cover of vegetation and water nets. When they took a closer look at about 100 paces, they found that the enemy cavalry had actually suffered a lot of losses in the 'shooting' with their own side. Gao Liang's body had been 'inserted' with more than ten arrows, although he relied on the heavy armor and was not seriously injured, but he jumped and roared repeatedly, obviously injured.

The use of heavy cavalry to 'engage' light infantry in swampy areas was a taboo for soldiers, and the complex terrain in the swamps limited the robbers' advantage over the outnumbered. In this way, even if the enemy general has the courage of a bear, what is there to fear? That's just a target!

"A thief is a thief...... Mai Shiping sneered slightly: "We can win this battle!" ”

Mai Shiping stretched out his bow and set up arrows and "shot" at the "door" of the sorghum. But Gao Liang was very vigilant, and when the arrow arrived, he bowed his head sharply, and the cluster of arrows hit the iron pocket, and the sparks 'shot' in four directions. Mai Shiping fired two more arrows in quick succession, and Gao Liang retreated, so one arrow 'shot' missed, and the other hit the edge of the smooth armor and fell to the ground.

This is definitely not the normal performance of the 'shooter' in the army. Mai Shiping could almost hear the laughter of the soldiers in the rear, he took a deep breath, broke away from the cover of the reeds, and took aim with his bow open, while striding closer through the water.

His actions immediately caught the attention of the thieves, and several arrows swished past the ends of his hair and his side. But Mai Shiping did not shy away from it, and continued to move forward with an aiming posture.

When he approached seventy or eighty paces, a long arrow hit Mai Shiping's left shoulder, and the arrow cluster was embedded in the bone and flesh, which hurt his heart and lungs, and the huge momentum made his whole body fall back. However, at this moment of lightning, Mai Shiping's long-prepared arrow has also been released.

Gao Liang, who was patrolling the horses, suddenly shook his whole body, and immediately fell to the sky like a giant tree that had been cut down. A 'fine' iron arrow sank deep into the 'door' of his face, and the shaft of the arrow still shone with cold light.
