Chapter 34: Breaking the Formation (II)
In the battlefield, the role of the archer is limited, and he can only shoot within fifty paces, but within fifty steps, if it is not a city wall or high ground, he will only have time to fire an arrow.
Besides, even if a senior elite archer continues to fight, and only twenty arrows can be shot in one go, then the muscles and muscles of the arm will be sore, swollen and painful, and he will not be able to exert his strength.
Therefore, Wang Shoutian gave an order, signaled the archers to retreat, and the team was organizing free shooting.
"Kill!" the first wave of spears has been stabbed.
At this time, the drizzle was hazy, dim, and dripping.
Flying blood mixed with rain, cries, screams, and the muffled sound of human being pierced filled the eardrums of everyone at the scene.
After a short battle, the soldiers on both sides showed panic and terror, and almost at the same time, the captains and fire commanders, who were filled with veteran soldiers, quickly organized the recruits and swept towards each other.
From time to time, a figure crashed down.
The gun array still played a considerable role, and with the drums of war, the enemy slammed into the wall like a surging tide, and dozens of spears pierced into the opponent's body.
But the drawbacks of the spear were also exposed, after the stab, the ** obstacle could not make the soldier pull out in a few seconds, and the gap was torn open and chopped down by the enemy veterans and even people with guns.
However, these enemies, in the blink of an eye, were stabbed by the spears on top of the back.
There were also human bows outside, and there were arrows falling from behind, piercing many human bodies, and people were constantly falling, and people were constantly filling.
The first gun forest was breached, and in front of the second group of gun forests, more than a dozen corpses that rushed forward were assassinated.
He Zhong has already been in close combat, as the team leader, he led the team, his face was cold, and he was slashing and killing fiercely, I have to say that this person's martial arts are quite high, and everywhere he went, he was slashed again and again, and suddenly his body was full of warm blood.
Only then did he kill one person, and on the left side, one person slashed over.
"Thief dares!" He Zhong's backhand was a knife, only to hear the sound of "exposure", blood splashed, and one of the opponent's left arms was cut off instantly.
"Kill!" He Zhong roared in the sky: "Brothers, kill with me!"
At this time, the corpses of the enemy and the enemy were piled up, and the situation was revealed in confusion on both sides, because most of them were new recruits.
"Kill!" all the soldiers who heard this sound roared in unison, their blood boiled, and their fighting spirit reached its peak.
There were also hand-to-hand battles, the sound of fighting, the sound of weapons colliding, screams, one after another, as He Zhong advanced day by day, the battle situation immediately underwent a subtle change.
"My lord, the smoke has been released. A soldier wearing rattan armor, beside Wang Shoutian, whispered.
Wang Shoutian looked back, and sure enough, there was a cigarette lit by wet straw in the distance, although it was not big, it was more than enough to see within a few kilometers.
However, it is not very conspicuous, and only those who have prepared in advance will notice.
"Well, that's good!" Wang Shoutian's face sank like water, not paying attention to this matter.
Although he wants to defeat the enemy general with an upright army, although he has a black-clothed guard, with Lu Ji's surname, he will definitely not fight.
So there were really no black-clad guards around.
However, there are within fifty miles, no, strictly speaking, there is one place within twenty miles, and twenty miles is ten kilometers, and in fact the scouts cannot find out the vast area within a radius of ten miles.
At this time, thick smoke was released.
Five miles away, in front of a farmhouse, there was a pile of firewood, and a military chief was waiting anxiously, when suddenly, a faint smoke was seen in the distance.
"Go to smoke!" Wu Chang ordered, and immediately, someone covered the wet and wet grass, and suddenly, thick smoke rose and rose more than ten meters.
Wait a moment, and then in the distance, another one.
The rain continued to fall, and in an abandoned farmhouse twenty miles away, fifty horsemen waited, each wearing leather armor, with a long knife in his hand, and his eyes did not squint.
"Who's coming!" shouted from the door.
"Report, the smoke has risen, and the captain is requested to send troops immediately. A captain came in and saluted, saying that he was not in the formation of the black-clothed guards.
In order to make the black-clothed guards unable to find a reason, Wang Shoutian specially sent the three military people to be the herald and guard the smoke.
Jia Dou, dressed in iron armor and holding a spear, stood up, his eyes coldly scanning the captain.
Cold sweat oozed from the captain's head, but he said: "Report, the smoke has risen, and I ask the captain to send troops immediately." ”
Jia Dou glanced at this person coldly, turned his head and said to the herald on the side: "Let the brothers get on the horse, and we will send troops!"
"No!" the herald nodded slightly, turning to relay the order.
In a moment, fifty horsemen turned over and got on their horses.
...... A quarter of an hour has passed since the start of the battle
Unlike what many people imagine, cold weapon combat is very physically demanding, and even the elite who have been trained for a long time can only support half an hour of fighting at most in history.
At this time, even if it was only for a moment, both friend and foe showed fatigue.
He Zhong was covered in blood, the slightly hot plasma stuck to his body, and the leather armor on his body already had many knife marks, but he didn't care at all, shouting: "Kill"
Almost at the same time, He Sheng, Chai Jia, and Zhang Yi also led their own people to fight.
Wang Shoutian's eyes swept away, and the situation of the enemy and the enemy fell in his heart, and suddenly, a wonderful feeling hit his heart, as if the whole world was quiet, and time became slow.
Wang Shoutian suddenly blessed his soul and whispered: "The enemy army is tired!"
The enemy braved the rain and did not have time to eat breakfast, but he arrived half early, was able to rest for half a day, ate his rations, and was able to accumulate his strength.
This is the time to fight fatigue, and this is when it finally manifests itself.
"He Yi, attack!" Wang Shoutian ordered without thinking.
"No!" He Yi shouted, "Sons, charge with me!"
There were thirty cavalry behind him, and ten of them were his descendants, and as soon as he called, this small horse team immediately followed the main general to charge.
The horses neighed, and the hooves of the horses trampled on the slippery mud and splashed.
Lu Ji realized the situation almost at the same time, and also waved his hand: "Attack!"
The opponent's only remaining horse team, about 30 people, launched a charge at the same time.
The two cavalry charged together violently, and in an instant, time became dull, and the muffled sound of continuous ** collisions, mixed with the crisp sound of broken bones, even overwhelmed the screams and wails.
At the moment when the cavalry collided with each other, luck and martial arts were brought into full play.
"Kill!" He Yi waved his hand, and the two heads flew out, and in an instant, he even saw the opponent's face, blood splattered, spraying blood mist on everyone in this range.
"Kill!" There were constantly cavalry handing over to each other, only to see He Yi was unstoppable, as long as he got close, the cavalry fell to the ground with blood splashed one after another, and for a while people turned over on their backs, making a mess.
And the cavalry that followed He Yi, taking advantage of the sharpness of the main general, slashed and killed.
Lu Ji, who was supervising the formation behind, changed his face greatly: "Who will this be?"
"Kill!" He Yi's entire cavalry passed, and most of the enemy cavalry that met him had already fallen, only a few sporadic horsemen, He Yi did not hesitate, and rushed towards the enemy's large array of hundreds of people from the side.
Wang Shoutian stared at it, only to see that his eyes were full of killing, his ears were full of shouts of killing, everyone's eyes were blood-red, and there was only one simple purpose, which was to block and kill the invading enemy by any means.
The rain kept falling, people kept falling, and blood was splattering.
"Kill!" the enemy had arrows, several cavalry fell, and the fallen cavalry was suddenly trampled into meat sauce by his companions who followed closely in a miserable cry, and the charge was already launched, and there was no room for any hesitation.
Dozens of horsemen rushed forward, and at the direction of the long knives, one soldier after another fell, blood splattered.
Under such a charge, the enemy position faltered.
Wang Shoutian was overjoyed and shouted: "Kill, the enemy can't hold on." ”
Suddenly, the five generals shouted at the same time and killed the enemy, and sure enough, the enemy formation collapsed.
In fact, at this time, the enemy had 600 people, and at most 100 people were killed, but in the era of cold weapons, this almost reached the limit, once the battle formation collapsed, the enemy general could no longer organize, seeing that the recruits fled reflexively, Wang Shoutian's army, the cry shook the sky, and chased up.
"General, go quickly!" Lu Ji's own soldiers saw that it was not good, and immediately several people helped Lu Ji to get on his horse and fled backwards.
The army was defeated, and there was absolutely no way to do it at this time.
But before he rushed out of the way, he saw a bloody man all over his body, and he intercepted it with a cruel smile, but it was He Yi: "Where to escape, the lord ordered me to take your head!"
The key to the victory of this battle is to take the head of Lu Ji.
Lu Ji was a soldier in the end, and at this time, he pulled out his knife violently: "Fight!"
"Fight!" A few pro-soldiers behind also roared angrily, and rushed straight ahead of Lu Ji.
With a flash of the sword, several cavalrymen were cut off under their horses, and the next moment, He Yi's long knife passed, and he saw Lu Ji's head flying out.
Because the distance was too close, He Yi saw the opponent's head, and his facial features and expressions were clear, even including the bloodshot eyeballs and unwilling expressions.
A puddle of blood splashed all over his body, and he took another blood bath, He Yi only felt drenched with joy, he raised the long knife fiercely, and the blood was left from the knife, and let out a huge roar.
"Those who kneel and abandon the knife will not be killed!"
"Those who kneel and abandon the knife will not be killed!"
"Lu Ji is dead, and he still hasn't surrendered!"
At this moment, on the battlefield, there were already these shouts, and with these shouts, many deserters dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground.
After a few moments, the killing stopped.
The rain didn't stop with the victory, but it was better for most of the recruits who woke up from the adrenaline rush.
They vomited, swayed in exhaustion, and staggered on their feet
The rain fell, turning the blood that kept flowing from the corpse into a trickle, and although the stream was temporarily dyed a striking red with blood, it only took a moment to wash away most of the blood.
According to the order, some people who were obviously seriously wounded, were mended, and from time to time the faint whispering moans were heard, which suddenly stopped with a "poof".
