Chapter 923: Lian Po is old

Zhang Xiong stepped through the thunder.

He saw the three positions in front of Wei Ba's command platform, but he did not stop the attack, but instead ordered to continue to accelerate.

He decided to do this for two reasons, one was that he was leading cavalry, and cavalry had to have speed, and once they lost their speed, they were not even as good as foot soldiers. The second is that he believes that the three positions that Wei Ba hastily formed under him cannot be perfect, and as long as he pays a certain price, he can completely use the powerful impact of the cavalry to destroy them. Compared to having the rider dismount and clear the obstacle first, a direct charge is obviously more appropriate.

What's more, he has a limited amount of time. At this time, there is no room for careful thinking, no room for careful calculation, what you want is to play fast and fast, not to give yourself time to think, let alone the opponent to think.

It's like two beasts of prey, fighting by instinct.

Zhang Xiong had been fighting with his father for many years, and his knights were also experienced knights, and they knew how to deal with this situation. For the obstacle in front of the formation, which was composed of human corpses and horse corpses, they chose to force through, relying on exquisite riding skills, controlling the war horses, and rushing over at the fastest speed. The depth of this position is insufficient, and even if the horses fall, with the inertia of the impact, they can rush over and rush to the second lane of rejection. With a bow and arrow, they were able to shoot their arrows into the third line of positions even before they fell. If luck is good, at least a third of them will be able to rush through this position.

Zhang Xiong gave the order to fight, and no one was allowed to advance, not to retreat.

More than 1,000 horsemen were the first to rush out of the position, and they beat their horses and galloped, but instead of clenching their swords, they drew their bows and arrows. By the horse's momentum. Before they entered the corpse array, they shot the arrows in their hands, and the long arrows crossed the position of twenty or thirty paces and shot at the soldiers who were behind the horses.

The soldiers crouched behind the rejection of the horse, raised the shield in their hands, clenched the knife in their hands, and shot their eyes from the edge of the shield, staring closely at the galloping Wei army's iron cavalry.

They knew that today was very dangerous, not only was the corpse array too thin to completely block the impact of the Wei army, but even the rejection of the horse in front of them was not difficult enough. The only thing that can really protect the young master is their body and strong will.

They are not the barbarians who came because they believed in God. For them, there is no question of wavering or not in their faith, their faith is to use their own flesh and blood to protect the safety of Wei Ba, no matter how many enemies there are. How powerful.

They have no worries. As long as the Wei family does not fall. Their families will be well arranged. Enjoy the most noble glory and enjoy the most preferential pension policy, and their children will get the same education as the children of the Wei family.

If the Wei family falls...... Then they won't have much future if they live. The head of the family died in battle and survived by himself, and he will not be looked down upon anywhere, and will always rush to the front and use the waste to consume the opponent's arrows.

The long arrow hit, shot on the shield, Ding Dong, like hail, shot on the ground, with a sound, shot on the armor, sparks splashed, crisp and pleasant.

A knight of the Wei army rushed through the corpse array on horseback and rushed to the front of the rejection of the horse, and the war horse jumped up in an attempt to jump over the rejection. Just passing through the corpse array full of corpses, the horse's hooves are stained with blood-soaked soil, it is not easy to perfectly realize the tactical action of jumping, many war horses are not well controlled, hit the rejection of the horse, pierced by the sharp stake, and fell to the ground with a scream, but the knights on horseback have already prepared, they take advantage of the horse's momentum, cross the rejection of the horse, and kill the soldiers after the rejection.

The soldiers shouted, slashing and stabbing with their spears, fighting with the enemy.

There were also some knights who were lucky, and even led their horses to rush past the rejection. But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, the soldiers rushed forward, the sharp war horse split the horse's belly, the sharp spear pierced into the body of the war horse, the war horse fell to the ground with a bang, and the knight on the horseback also fell to the ground, and then was killed by the soldiers one by one.

More Wei knights rushed in, and more arrows raced through the air.

The soldiers relied on the corpse array and the rejection of horses, and stubbornly resisted.

The ballista and thunderbolt carts on the warships in Surabaya also began to roar, shooting stone bullets and arrows into the sky and shooting at the Wei army in the distance, shouting and killing deafeningly, and more than 1,000 people fought on the battlefield at more than 200 paces, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. Only a few Wei knights rushed through the rejection with their horses, and most of the Wei knights had already fallen off their horses, but they refused to give up, some turned into foot soldiers and moved forward bravely, and some cleaned up the corpse formation behind them, clearing out a few passages to reduce the trouble for their comrades who were about to attack.

The thousand people who charged for the first time knew very well that they would definitely not be able to go back alive, and their task was not only to test the reality of the Han army's defense line and consume the opponent's arrows, but also to clear the position at any cost. If they do not give full play to the advantages of cavalry, it will be difficult for them to make substantial progress. Arrows flew above their heads, stone bullets whistled in the air, and some Wei soldiers had just lifted the bodies of their companions aside, and they themselves fell to the ground, becoming new corpses.

The Wei family's martial arts skills are exquisite, with tacit understanding, in the face of the more than 1,000 Wei troops who rushed to kill, they were not very difficult, but the corpse array in front of them was destroyed by the Wei army, revealing a few blood paths that were not obvious, but extremely harmful.

Zhang Xiong didn't give them a chance to make amends, and before the first batch of 1,000 people were all killed, he sent a second 1,000-man team.

Another thousand horsemen came in droves.

Another battle begins.

Wei Ba sat on the command podium and didn't say a word. Zhang Xiong's response was expected by him, but he could not break it, so he could only rely on the strength of the soldiers and the limited rejection array to consume Zhang Xiong's troops. It wasn't Zhang Xiong who was worried about him, as far as the current situation was concerned, even if Zhang Xiong buried all the five thousand knights here, it would be difficult to break his position. He was worried about Xiahouba, if Xiahouba arrived with more than 10,000 cavalry, and his position was destroyed by Zhang Xiong, it would be impossible for him to use this method to repel Xiahouba.

He was silent, his fingers darting on his knees, and a chill flashing in his eyes from time to time, as if a computer was running at high speed, performing intricate calculations.

While Zhang Xiong was violently attacking Wei Ba's Chinese army, Deng Ai and Ding Feng were also storming Zhang He's Chinese army.

Deng Ai knew best what Wei Ba was thinking, and he didn't withdraw him to assist in defense at this time. Instead, let him continue to attack Zhang He, which looks irrational, but is actually the wisest choice.

If he gives up the attack and chooses to assist in defense, Zhang He will not let him go, he will definitely chase him, but form an encirclement of Wei Ba, the initiative is in the hands of Zhang He, and Zhang He can decide the course of the battle more freely. Now he did not retreat, but advanced, storming Zhang He's Chinese army. dragged Zhang He into the gamble of exchanging his life for his life. Let Zhang He not make a move to control the rhythm.

This is indeed not a good solution, but it is the best choice in the current situation. Under his onslaught, Zhang He retreated step by step, and had been compressed under Peng Cheng. And Ding Feng came out from behind. Forward and backward pinching. It has made Zhang He unable to parry, and he can't take care of the battlefield on that side at all. As long as he kills Zhang He, he can return to Wei Ba's aid. Achieve the victory of zuihou.

But although Zhang He was surrounded by it, he did not collapse to the point of collapse. He led hundreds of halberders, rushed everywhere, fought stubbornly, and struggled to maintain the crumbling front. Everywhere he went, as long as he said a few simple words, he didn't even need to speak, as long as he picked up his halberd and waved it forward, those Wei troops who were killed in disarray would go crazy and counterattack, and start a life-for-life fight with the Han army, repelling the Han army's attacks again and again.

Zhang He almost single-handedly supported the entire front.

Deng Ai sighed with emotion. This famous general who has been fighting for nearly 30 years really has the immeasurable prestige of ordinary people, if there was a different person to command these county soldiers with limited combat strength, I am afraid that he would have collapsed long ago, and he can still hold on to the present, and he still can't see the possibility of collapse, which is the highest glory of a general.

Compared with this famous general, his prestige in the eyes of the soldiers is far from enough.

However, these disparities did not discourage Deng Ai, on the contrary, they aroused his fighting spirit.

He wants to defeat Zhang He, he wants to thwart Zhang He's Jihua and return to the aid before Zhang Xiong kills Wei Ba.

Deng Ai ignored the danger and boarded the baggage car and watched the whole scene.

He saw Zhang He, and Zhang He also saw him.

Zhang He didn't know Deng Ai, but he knew that this man who didn't look amazing was different. He was given the important task of a striker by Wei Ba, which is enough to prove that he has extraordinary ability. After a few days of fighting, although Deng Ai was not surprising, he did not have any flaws at all, which also proved his ability. There are not many people who can make him unable to find a flaw.

Zhang He threw the bloody halberd to the guards, wiped his hand on the battle robe, wiped the slippery bloodstains, reached out and took out the bow, put on the arrow, aimed at Deng Ai, and shot an arrow.

The bowstring was still ringing, and the arrow had already flown in front of Deng Ai, who had been looking at Zhang He, of course he knew what Zhang He was doing. But it wasn't until Zuihou that he suddenly drew his sword, and the light of the knife was like lightning, and it slashed the feather arrow.

He smiled at Zhang He and put the knife into the sheath.

Zhang He sighed, whether he admitted it or not, he was already old. If he is ten years younger, his arm strength can be three points stronger, and Deng Ai may not be able to split his arrow so easily. Just now, he used all his strength, but he couldn't fill the three-stone rhubarb bow that had been with him for thirty years, and the speed of the arrow was greatly reduced.

Boxing is afraid of being young and strong, and against Wei Ba and these juniors, he is really a little powerless.

Just as Wei Ba quickly guessed his jihua, he also estimated Wei Ba's response. Deng Ai did not retreat, but continued to attack, as he expected, and even Wei Feng's initiative to withdraw from the battlefield did not surprise him. With Wei Ba's character and scheming, if he was just defending and didn't want to fight back, he wouldn't be worthy of him Zhang He's big mind.

However, it doesn't mean that he is not surprised, Wei Ba's toughness still surprised him. He believed that Wei Ba had estimated the arrival of Xiahou Ba, in this case, Wei Ba actually refused to retreat to the battlefield, but chose to continue fighting, and even let Deng Ai continue to attack his Chinese army, and this was an instant decision, without much consideration, I have to say that Wei Ba's strength was beyond his imagination.

The more this happened, the more he felt that he had made the right choice. Wei Ba is not only cunning, but also tough, he believes that as long as Wei Ba is killed in this battle, it will have an impact on the situation in the world that cannot be underestimated, and Great Wei will benefit the most, and may even reverse the declining national fortunes.

"Drumming, Circle, Circle!" Zhang He hissed and yelled
