"What?" Shen Jin exclaimed in surprise and chased him out like a whirlwind. When he ran beyond the gate, he saw that the messenger had already gone far.

He turned around stupidly, but saw that no one in the Chinese military tent had followed. Some of them were circulating something, and some were whispering, and Lu Yao took out the newly drawn battlefield map and was discussing something with Ding Miao.

"This ...... What's going on? What's new? Shen Jin looked hesitantly in the direction of Murong Longcheng's escape, the soles of his feet were like roots, and after a long time, he finally decided to go back to the Chinese military tent to investigate.

Half an hour later.

In the western part of Dai County, on this plain in Pingshu County, the sound of the passing wind gradually became solemn. The ground shook imperceptibly, startling the flocks of rats and the like, and they fled with their chirps. Under the towering mountains, countless spears and halberds rose like a forest, and the two huge army formations gradually approached.

Shrouded in smoke and dust, Liu Yao rode forward, and his heart was surging.

The feather came from the north, and the horse climbed the embankment. Long drive the Huns, left Gu Ling Xianbei - the boy Han should be like this!

Liu Yao couldn't help but clench the lance in his hand and murmured: "Brother Lance, Brother Lance, today is your chance to make a name for yourself!" ”

As the horses galloped, the enemy drew closer and closer, and the forces of his forces became clearer. The number of Changshan thieves was more than 5,000, and they were also like the Jin army, with the cavalry as the first formation, and attacked quickly. The main force is divided into five parts, the left side extends to the north and connects with the mountains of Baiyangyu, and the right side relies on the river beach of Qiyi water, slowly advancing.

Liu Yao's score was clear, and the banner in the front front cavalry formation was a "Yang" character, with a strength of about 600 troops, which was twice the number of his own side, and his momentum was stronger. At this moment, the distance between the two sides is about five miles, and there will be a battle in an instant.

Hu Liuniang, who is suitable for talent, analyzed the enemy situation and has clearly introduced the famous bandit leaders among the Changshan thieves one by one. The Changshan bandits are a group of bandits mainly Xianbei and Zahu, but there are also Han leaders among them, such as Yang Feixiang, the enemy general in front of him. Yang Feixiang, Hao Guo, Tu Jili, Zheerda, Ge En and other four people are bandits with strong strength among the Changshan bandits, and their fierce names are above the other four.

This person is the second only fierce general in the Changshan army to Murong Longcheng, and he has three or five hundred lives in his hands, so he really kills people like mowing grass. If it weren't for this, a few days ago, when the Daijun Hu coalition army tried to attack the Jin army with Luochuan thieves, all the Qu Shuai would not have bent their knees like sheep and elected him as the leader.

Liu Yao doesn't care about so much, in today's war, he was appointed to lead the cavalry to clash with the enemy first, and it was the time when the blood was surging. Mo said that it was nicknamed the Flying Elephant, but it was a real elephant running, and it was still regarded as a step into the body by Liu Yao.

Estimating that the time of contact between the two armies was approaching, Liu Yao held the long lance high. With this movement, the entire cavalry naturally gathered around him, forming a huge arrow that was narrow in the front and wide in the back. The horses of each man gradually got up to speed, and the roar of the horses' hooves on the ground gradually merged into the same rhythm, as if they were an indestructible whole, rushing towards the enemy.

When the two armies were two hundred paces apart, the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air roared. The cavalry on both sides fired their bows and arrows almost simultaneously. Countless arrows flew like two locusts at their opponents. The arrows are so dense that when they 'intertwin' in the air, it almost feels like they will collide with each other.

The soldiers of the Jin army bowed down one after another, and some used small shields tied to their left arms to resist. But such a dense array of arrows was difficult to defend against, and in an instant, dozens of people in the formation were hit by arrows. Some people suddenly rolled off their horses, while others gritted their teeth and persisted. There were also some horses that were wounded and neighed to the ground, overturning the warriors on their backs.

Liu Yao is the general of the whole army, and he has suffered the most arrow rain. He swung his lance like a wheel, crackling and crackling, blocking more than a dozen sharp arrows that 'shot' at him one after another. Occasionally, a few hits were blocked by two layers of armor, and they did not enter the 'flesh' deeply. Liu Yao pulled out a short knife with his backhand, cutting off several arrows hanging on the armor, and at the same time continued to charge forward, shouting in his mouth: "Quick! Fast! ”

Riding and shooting is a very difficult skill, and a good riding bow is even rarer, and in the northern frontier, where iron tools are precious, many arrows are even made of animal bones, making it difficult to break through armor. Therefore, for a cavalry battle with a total scale of nearly 1,000 people, the losses that can be caused by this 'wave' and 'shooting' are very small, and the final decision is still white-knuckle. And when the white blades are in contact, which side can raise the speed of the war horse to the highest and exert the greatest impact is the key to victory!

By this time, the distance between the two armies had been reduced to a hundred paces. The soldiers of the Jin army no longer 'shoot' arrows and all switched to long weapons. Heavy lances or spears were lifted forward, and hundreds of spear heads and spear tips poked out almost at the same time, as if an ancient beast suddenly showed its fangs.

In the next instant, the two groups of centaurs collided violently.

Liu Yao took the lead and entered the enemy formation.

The first four thieves who fought against Liu Yao were killed almost instantly. The speed of the gallop of his war horse under his crotch was almost not slowed down slightly, and he immediately collided with the second column of enemies. His lance danced like thunder, constantly stabbing, sweeping, and striking, killing the thieves like mowing grass. In the blink of an eye, he broke through the second row of enemy cavalry and continued to go deeper, and he was invincible!

The location close to Liu Yao were dozens of children of the Liu clan who followed him when he was in Guangping County. According to the method of selecting knights described in the "Liutao", take the age of less than forty, more than seven feet five inches long, strong and fast, superb, etc., can gallop and ride 'shooting', front and back, left and right, circling forward and retreating, crossing the ditch, climbing the hills, adventuring resistance, absolute Daze, galloping strong enemies, 'chaos' public, the name of the warrior and horseman, must not be thick. Liu Yao's Guangping Township is precisely the "warrior of martial arts" selected in the tragic war.

They are the most courageous men in the army. Seeing Liu Yao struggling to fall into battle, these warriors shouted in unison to kill the thief, and rushed behind Liu Yao to kill fiercely, stabbing with a long lance at a distance, and slashing with a skullknife at a distance. Where the swords and guns started, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and they stubbornly trodged out a bloody path in the enemy formation and 'advanced' forward.

Lu Yao and the others immediately watched the battle on the slope. From their point of view, it can be seen that Liu Yao's troops roared and attacked in the shape of arrows, unstoppable. Correspondingly, Chang Shan bandits, relying on a large number of people, particularly imposed the left and right flanks, in an attempt to outflank and annihilate Liu Yao's cavalry from both sides. Liu Yao did not seem to care about this, and the position he chose for the assault was not in the center of the enemy army, but in the direction of the left. As he marched bravely, the Jin cavalry took a slight arc and stabbed into the enemy line at an oblique angle.

Immediately, the two armies were entangled in one place, and billowing smoke and dust rose into the sky, and everyone could not see the movement clearly. Only the trampling of horses' hooves, the screams of warriors, and the clashing of weapons could be heard in the wind, and occasionally the ownerless war horse came out of the dust and smoke alone, trooping aimlessly.

Such a large-scale cavalry battle is rarely seen by the Han people in the interior of the Central Plains. Shao Xu's face was slightly pale, he looked at it for a long time, and asked anxiously, "How is it?" How's it going? ”

Lu Yao was carefully looking at the rightmost flank of his main formation, but he didn't bother to answer Shao Xu for a while.

Except for a small number of original Jin army backbones, the rest of his subordinates were formed by entangling various tribes in just a few days, so their quality in terms of array and combat discipline was far from the hundreds of people who stayed in Jinyang and were led by Guo Huan. Especially in the golden drums, banners, etc., these recruits can be said to have no concept at all, and basically stay in the stage where each tribe fights independently and relies on individual martial arts to solve problems. Of course, this is a problem that must be solved in the future, but Lu Yao has no choice but to disperse the original Jin soldiers to serve as officers at the grassroots level, so as to maintain the command system.

But at this moment, he found that a group of foot soldiers on the far right side of the main formation were in a strict formation, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, and among the 'chaotic' comrades, they seemed to stand out from the 'chicken' group. The infantry was supposed to be mainly composed of the troops of the Burmes tribe, and a number of Wuhuan warriors were also enriched, and the leader of the team was Turinus, who claimed to have been a centurion of the Roman Empire.

From Lu Yao's angle, it can be clearly seen that he divided about 100 of his subordinates into three horizontal formations, in addition to the necessary non-commissioned officers armed with spears, there are also many non-commissioned soldiers holding small skin-covered wooden cards in their left and swords in their right hands. Turinus himself, on the right side of the first column, was constantly shouting and giving orders, keeping the distance between the three columns about a certain foot.

"It's really interesting." Lu Yao thought with satisfaction.

"General! Checkmate! Shao Xu was inevitably anxious after all, and he raised his voice: "Do you know how the battle situation is on the front line?" ”

Lu Yao came back to his senses and raised his hand to point him in a direction: "Shao Gong, look here." ”

That place was the right flank of the cavalry of the Changshan thieves who were charged by Yang Feixiang, and about 100 cavalry were led by several bandit leaders in armor, roughly keeping the queue slowly moving forward, and had not yet entered the battle. Shao Xu stared at it for a long time, but he didn't notice anything unusual, but the corners of his eyes were dry and tearful. He stretched out his hand and wiped his eyes, and was about to speak, but when he saw that the enemy formation was in chaos, a cavalry of the Biao Jin army rushed out, and the first one was a prancing horse dancer, and instantly stabbed several bandit leaders under the horse. Hundreds of thieves fled in all directions like birds struck by a vulture.

Who is that brave general, not Liu Yao?

Liu Yao fought out of the enemy formation, pulled the reins a little, and turned his mount back. At this moment, a large number of enemy horsemen surrounded in reverse, vaguely encircling. Liu Yao looked forward to it, but he didn't know what to say. The dozens of iron horsemen around him shouted and shouted, full of spirit. They rode with their horses in their arms and charged again!

"Siege the city first, trap the enemy, cut the general and hold the flag, the front 'Meng' arrow, do not avoid the difficulty of the soup fire...... What a strong man! Shao Xu only felt thrilled and couldn't help but admire.
