【Chapter 771】 The sky is falling apart
[Thanks: Black-skinned handsome book friends reward incentives, ranky book friends monthly ticket support, thank you!] 】
――――――
The sky is showing a faint whiteness, the stars are receding, and the darkness and light are making a final resistance.
In the sound of "fluttering", a gust of cold wind wrapped in the morning mist quietly drifted to the front of the formation, and the flag was lifted to hunt.
The wind of early spring is as cold as a knife, but the battle under the banner is boiling with blood and fierce battles.
More than 30,000 Black Mountain infantry troops, led by Wang Dang and Sun Qing, were fiercely attacking the Yuan army around the flagpole.
The blood-soaked sword swung like the wind, and the bright red blood on the blade splattered in the air, landing on the cheeks of the two armies who fought bravely, but they ignored it. As long as the blood did not cover their eyes, they did not care, but only slashed and killed; If it splashes on the eyes, you can wipe it with your hand, but this wipe will wipe the bloody blood stains on your hands all over your face, and it looks hideous, like a fierce ghost crawling out of hell, which is terrifying.
In the fierce battle, although the Montenegrin army occupied an absolute superiority in strength, it was very difficult to fight in the face of more than 15,000 trapped beasts and soldiers of the Yuan army, and the fight was extremely tragic. The attack has been two tea so far, the two armies of the brave and tenacious hedge slashing, often one side of the knife but will not fall down immediately, before death to the other side of the backhand knife, not afraid of death, not an inch of retreat.
In addition, due to the small space around Shuai Qi, the Montenegrin army, which had the advantage of troops, could not gain the upper hand, but fought on a par with Yuan's army. Yes, the bloody battle has been fought until now. The two sides still maintain the original situation, hedging and slashing, fighting hard, and returning blood to blood and tooth to tooth. The battle has been stalemate.
Fifty steps away from the battlefield, in front of the Xiliang Battle Cavalry Formation, Li Li stared at the battle situation in front of him with a solemn face, his eyes full of rich and cold killing intent. At this moment, he was holding the Golden Lion Beast King in his left hand, and clenching the war knife in his right hand, as if he was ready to lead the war horse to kill the general at any time.
Seeing that the battle situation was stalemate, Li Lijian's eyebrows frowned slightly. Raising his hand to beckon Li Zhi, he said softly without moving: "Order our cavalry to release arrows under the flagpole and scatter them on their own." Shoot Yuan Jun indiscriminately. ”
"No, the last general will give the order immediately." Li Zhi respectfully agreed, and then wanted to ride his horse away.
"Wait!" After shouting to stop Li Zhi, Li Li raised his hand and pointed to Yuan Shao's handsome banner that was swaying in the wind. He said in a deep voice: "Zicheng is in the army with Han Sheng, who has worn Yang in a hundred steps. Archery is equally famous, and is called the 'first marksman' by the soldiers. Have you seen Yuan Shao's Chinese army commander's flag, this is a good opportunity for you to show off your skills and burn it with a rocket. As long as Yuan's banner is burned, immediately wave my banner, and then beat the drum and order our soldiers to launch a strong attack, and be sure to defeat the princes and allies on the main battlefield at dawn! ”
After Li Zhi heard this, he did not immediately answer. Instead, he stared intently at the hunting Yuan Junshuai Banner and measured the distance. Keep an eye on the direction of the cold wind.
Indeed, it is not close to Shuai Qi here, a full hundred and thirty steps, ordinary arrows cannot reach such a long range, even if it is a general with superb archery skills, using a four-stone strong bow, it is impossible to shoot Yuan Jun Shuai Qi. In the Xiliang Army, only one bow and crossbow battalion has this ability, but there is no guarantee that it will be able to shoot the Shuai Qi, which is the "Pre-Qin Strong Bow Team". It's a pity that this team of archers is still fighting together on the main battlefield at the moment, and it is impossible to appear here, and Li Zhi is the only archer with the skill of piercing Yang in a hundred steps at this moment.
After looking at it for a while, Li Zhi nodded and said, "The lord will wait for a while, and after the last general gives the order, he will shoot down the enemy's marshal flag." ”
"Are you sure? If not, it doesn't matter, I'll rush to kill it later, and then it's not too late to burn it. Li Li whispered with a slight hesitation.
"Yes. Even if it is twenty paces away, the last general can burn it with a single arrow. Li Zhi affirmed.
Li Li bowed slightly, waved his hand and motioned for Li Zhi to prepare: "In this case, let's do it." Ordered the flag to be hung up, and when the enemy's flag fell, the flag of our army was erected. ”
After Li Zhi left, just as Li Li turned around and looked at the battlefield in front of the battle again, his body suddenly shook, and the golden beast under the seat roared inexplicably, looking restless.
"Boom?????? Kill, kill, kill! ”
The moment he sat down again, Li Lidon felt the ground tremble under his feet, and then he heard a huge sprint roar and shouts of killing behind him.
Suddenly, Li Li's heart was overjoyed, and he didn't need to look back to know that this was the shouting of killing when the Xiliang Iron Cavalry under his command broke through the allied defense line and routed the soldiers and horses of Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others head-on. But this joy did not linger long in his heart, and was immediately replaced by a lingering worry. Immediately, his expression was solemn, his face was gloomy, his brows were tightly locked, and he raised his eyes to look at the handsome flag of Yuan Jun fluttering in the wind a hundred steps away, his eyes flickered and brightened, and his whole body exuded a fierce murderous aura that was condensed like substance.
It is true that the Xiliang War Cavalry defeated the Allied forces on the frontal main battlefield, which is undoubtedly good news for Li Li. Because this means that the Xiliang Army has already established a victory, the victory of this decisive battle belongs to him Li Li, and the future overlord of the Central Plains belongs to him. However, in addition to the surprise, Li Li suddenly realized that he was in the rear of the Allied army, with only more than 10,000 soldiers around him, and the defeated Allied soldiers would inevitably retreat to the rear. In this way, wouldn't he be surrounded by more than 100,000 allied troops in the rear, and Tian Feng and more than 10,000 Yuan troops trapped by the Montenegrin army would be able to escape death?
At this moment, Li Li was not worried that he would be besieged by more than 100,000 allied legions, because there were more than 100,000 warriors under his command behind these hundreds of thousands of allied troops. Therefore, although the allies have many soldiers and horses, they still can't help him. And what made him deeply worried was precisely the upcoming more than 100,000 Xiliang battle horses. Because until this moment, Yuan Shao's long-planned plan has never been exposed, and this poses a huge threat to the Xiliang War Cavalry.
You must know that these more than 100,000 war cavalry are all cavalry that he worked hard to run Xiliang for three years and finally formed it, accounting for more than seventy percent of the combat effectiveness of the entire Xiliang Army. Once the war horse is lost, it is equivalent to asking for half of his Li Li's life, so that the current good situation of strong soldiers and horses will be ruined because of this, and even the hegemony that the Xiliang Army once had will collapse, and from then on, the rivers will fall day by day, and they will fall for thousands of miles.
As for why there was such a premonition, Li Li himself could not say, it was purely an instinctive intuition about the coming danger. Moreover, this intuition has not been a day or two, and has been entrenched in his heart for the past half a month, and it has not been dispersed and lingered. At this moment, this uneasy premonition became more and more obvious, and a strong sense of crisis filled his heart, making him feel like a fish in his throat and a man's back, and he was restless and restless.
The sound of horses' hooves came from afar, and it was hundreds of thousands of retreating allies who approached Li Li and his party before the Xiliang cavalry.
"Whoosh!"
At the same time that more than 100,000 allied soldiers on the main battlefield rushed to the rear, more than 10,000 Feiyan light cavalry and Jinqi guard cavalry took their bows and wound their bows, and shot straight at the stubborn Yuan army under Shuai's side. In the midst of this dense rain of sharp arrows, a rocket with a fire oil wrapped in fire oil pierced the night sky, and the last to arrive was the first to outperform all the arrows with a speed that was unattainable to the naked eye, and shot the handsome banner of Yuan Junshuai fluttering in the wind with unmistakable accuracy.
In an instant, the dark yellow handsome flag that was more than a foot long and wide burst into flames, and the red fire whistled in the wind, which was conspicuous.
"Ahhh
Just when the Yuan army under the Shuai Qi was in an uproar, Li Liyue rode out of the battle, and the Jin Qi war knife pointed directly at the burning Yuan Army Shuai Banner, and shouted: "Take the flag!" All the soldiers rushed into battle with me and killed! ”
The moment the words fell, Li Li rode the Golden Lion Beast and rushed out, leading the way to the battlefield. Li Zhi, who followed closely behind, personally erected the flag of the Xiliang Army, and galloped on his horse, carrying the flag and rushing into battle. Behind him, Zhang Yan went into battle with his wounds, and together with Chen Zhi, he led more than 13,000 war horses and horses to gallop wildly, and rushed into the battlefield in front of the battle like a tide.
Suddenly, under the rush of Li Liqin's war cavalry, it was like a boulder smashed into a pool of stagnant water, which suddenly caused an uproar, causing the original stalemate of the battle to be reversed instantly. In the blink of an eye, the defense line of the Yuan army, which was still trapped by the beasts, was torn open by the war cavalry charging array led by Li Li, and then the gap continued to expand, and then extended, and then completely collapsed. Immediately, Xiliang Zhan's cavalry was like a bamboo, and he went straight to the bottom of Tian Feng's handsome banner to kill the general.
At this moment, most of the burning Yuan Junshuai banner had been burned, and it was about to be burned out.
However, at this moment, an extremely strange scene happened. I saw that Tian Feng, who was dressed in a Confucian robe, brazenly ordered his soldiers to pull out the handsome flag, and then under the cover of Gao Ran and Gao Gan's two generals, Tian Feng turned over and dismounted, and together with thousands of Yuan soldiers, he carried the burning handsome flag and retreated. And the extremely strange thing is that these Yuan troops who fled in a hurry, including Gao Lan, Gao Gan and other generals, all abandoned their horses and fled on foot, and many Yuan soldiers tore the armor on their bodies while galloping, and then threw away the weapons in their hands.
This is the real throwing away armor and fleeing in defeat, and the scene is very spectacular. So much so that the morale of the Montenegrin Army and Feiyan Light Cavalry, who saw this scene, became more and more high, and they rushed forward one by one with a roar, eager to put on their wings and catch up with them as soon as possible.
This scene may not be special in the eyes of the Black Mountain Army and the Jin Qiwei soldiers, but in Li Li's eyes, it is extremely weird, full of indescribable conspiracy, and a very obvious tendency to lure the enemy. For a person like him, who has the memory of later generations, although he has not personally encountered such a scene, he has seen countless similar images. After all, thousands of years of historical inheritance in later generations are definitely not given in vain, can you never see a pig run if you haven't eaten pig's head meat?
Therefore, at this moment, Li Li, who was in the midst of the speeding pursuit, suddenly stopped with a rein, and shouted without thinking: "Where is Li Zhi, carry the flag and retreat, quickly!" ”
However, just as Li Zhi was stunned and at a loss for what to do, a loud bang of the sky and the earth suddenly came, and it was too late.
"Boom, boom, boom??????"
The roar of the mountain and tsunami swept through the Loudi Plains in an instant, causing the entire battlefield to shake the mountains, as if the sky was falling and the end was coming.
