Next to Fu Hongzhi, a deputy general named Fu Yangjie, who was also his guard captain, was in his thirties, with a yellow face and a long beard. He was holding a three-pointed two-edged long-handled knife. He stood beside Fu Hongzhi on horseback and looked at him.
The battle situation ahead, and the auxiliary soldiers who were coming back densely like ants, either each carrying a corpse on their backs, or in groups of three or four, carrying the corpse of an officer on a pole, passing by these
When the cavalry and chariot soldiers were fighting, people would pay military salutes to the mutilated corpses of the Jin soldiers who died in battle, giving these brothers who died in battle a final tribute and farewell from their comrades.
Fu Yangjie watched Liu Yong's tragic body being sent back and sighed softly: "I can't believe that Liu Yong, who just surrendered to our army, died in battle like this. This man was very skilled in martial arts. What was he like?"
Can the thief kill him?"
Fu Hongzhi's face was solemn: "I heard from the scout report just now that he died together with the enemy general Zhang Linhu. That Zhang Linhu was a well-known master among demon thieves. He was a general who had been killed from small soldiers for more than ten years. His martial arts skills were not as high as those of many Beifu."
Among the famous generals, Liu Yong should be his old subordinate or even his apprentice. Being able to exchange one life for another is already an extraordinary performance."
Having said this, Fu Hongzhi sighed: "Moreover, Liu Yong led more than ten soldiers around him to besiege Zhang Linhu, and they all died in the battle. These people who had just surrendered could be regarded as washing away their sins with their lives.
, Brother Ah Zhi has an order to change them into our army’s clothes and armor, and collect their corpses and bury them according to the treatment given to our soldiers.”
Fu Yangjie nodded: "This is right. I think back then, brother Hongzhi, you and I were also soldiers of the old Chu army who served Huanxuan, but these brothers in the Beifu army did not regard us as outsiders. Otherwise, where would our turn be today?"
Why are we standing here? Compared with Liu Yong and others, we are lucky. At least we survived and are still fighting today."
Fu Hongzhi smiled slightly: "The war is fierce and dangerous. I don't know if we can survive today. However, even if we die in battle, we must kill more monsters and thieves before we die. Just like Liu Yong, if we can
If I kill Xu Daofu, then even if I lose my life, what should I regret?"
Fu Yangjie laughed: "Then what are we waiting for? The battle ahead was so fierce that we killed many brothers before we were able to completely annihilate Zhang Linhu's insertion force, but the main force of Li Nanfeng's demon thief front army is still there.
If it was not easy for the chariot to run on this rocky battlefield just now, now that we have changed the horses and become cavalry, we can definitely attack."
Fu Hongzhi shook his head: "Azhi Ge specifically told me not to underestimate the enemy, return to the front army formation, standby for response, and be sure to guard the flanks. Our chariots and horses are separated. This is not just for the sake of these few incidents."
For the hundred cavalry, we need to use the protective power of the chariot more to defend our relatively weak flank formation, because our infantry is not enough now."
Having said this, Fu Hongzhi looked back and frowned: "Counting these auxiliary soldiers carrying corpses and the lightly wounded soldiers who are wrapping their wounds and resting, we only have more than a thousand fighting men here, and
The archers have all dismounted and marched forward. We only have gunmen and cavalry here. If the enemy attacks from the side, it may be difficult to defend."
Fu Yangjie said disapprovingly: "The enemy has already wiped out five or six thousand people. How can they still have the strength to come from the flank? Besides, behind us are the central army and the rear army, and there are still 15,000 people. Could it be that
Will they just sit back and watch us being attacked and not come to rescue us?"
Fu Hongzhi said in a deep voice: "Yosuke, don't be too careless. The reason why Tianshi Dao's attack is unfavorable is that they underestimated our strength, especially the chariots, but their Kongming Lantern raid and flanking detours also failed.
We were unexpected. If Zhang Linhu hadn't been greedy for power and attacked our main formation directly, but instead used a small number of troops to defend the stone field area, and the main force of the army went back to eat our surrounded troops, then we would still have such results now.
?"
A trace of shame flashed across Fu Yangjie's face, and he lowered his head and said, "I didn't think well and made a mistake. I ask Brother Hongzhi to punish me."
Fu Hongzhi sighed: "Yosuke, you are a warrior who charges into battle, but now that you are gradually becoming a general, you must have an overall perspective. In this battle, the main forces of both sides are still not deployed. Even if it is a battle between the front troops,
Although our army has made a lot of gains, it still has not defeated the opponent's entire front army. It can only be said that it has been damaged and consumed. However, our tanks and cavalry have been exposed. Now it seems that we are taking the initiative, but in fact it is
There is a huge risk. Before Brother Daogui sends reserve troops to defend this place, what we have to do is to hold our line. No matter whether the enemy is attacking or not, we cannot attack easily."
The surrounding soldiers shouted in unison: "Yes!"
Before Fu Hongzhi finished speaking, he heard a heightened chariot behind him, or a makeshift tower, and the scout looking into the distance suddenly shouted: "The enemy is coming from the north!"
Fu Hongzhi's expression changed and he said sternly: "The whole army returns to the formation, seals the formation gate, the knights dismount and board the chariot, prepare to fire arrows." As he said this, he took the lead in reining in his horse and ran back, and hundreds of cavalrymen rushed towards where they belonged.
In the square formation on the north side, with the opening and closing of shields, the sound of bugles, and the passing of flags, the battle formation fell into a closed silence. Only the smoke and dust on the north side became bigger and bigger.
close.
On the north side of the battlefield, in a dense forest, Li Nanfeng looked calm. He looked at the Jin army formation three miles away. Groups of cavalry rode into the formation, and then the gates of the formation were closed, while large and heavy vehicles were being pushed out.
, placed outside the formation on the north side, there were constantly lightly-armed auxiliaries and even unarmored civilians running back and forth, loading large wooden rafts on top of these carts, and in the gaps between the wooden rafts, there were
There were crossbow holes and arrow holes, and iron chains were put on the bloody wheels of the cart, which were still covered with human flesh and blood, and they were connected. Soon, an insurmountable barrier was formed.
Next to Li Nanfeng, Zhang Zhuer stood with a sword in his hand. The edge of his sword was already blood red, and there were some purple-black blood clots in the blood groove. His body was covered with blood, and there were also stains on the leather armor.
There were many sword marks, which showed that he had just experienced a bloody battle, killed many enemies, and suffered several wounds himself.
Zhang Zhuer said bitterly: "Senior Brother Li, we haven't killed all the Dong barbarians there yet, so why are you asking us to come here?"
Li Nanfeng said calmly: "The ambush of the Jin army's front army was all out, five thousand cavalry rushed out of the formation, and there were chariots. If there wasn't a stone field in front that blocked the impact of the chariots, do you think you would have been able to come back?"
