In early April, Chongzhou.

In the early morning, the red sun hangs in the east, and the warm sunshine pours over the earth, shining on the floating black flags.

The infantry and cavalry formations all over the mountains and fields rose and fell slightly, like a sparkling lake, reflecting light.

Looking south from a high place, after passing through a forest in front of the army, there is an endless plain.

After the army entered the mountains and forests, they stopped moving forward and began to cut down trees.

With the efforts of hundreds of thousands of people, bare hills continued to appear before our eyes, and the cut down trees were also built into solid camps and fortifications.

On the morning of the fifth day, a black line appeared on the plains in the horizon.

As time passed, the black line became more and more obvious, accompanied by waves of rolling thunder.

On a lookout platform on the hillside, Liu Feng was wearing a heavy black armor and a black cloak, looking into the direction of the plain.

With his eyesight, he could already see countless figures swaying on the horizon. They were Xiao Gan's front army.

Since the cold winter passed and the ice and snow melted, Xiao Gan led his army of 500,000, claiming to be a million, and crossed Fengmen Pass in a mighty manner and headed straight for Daping Mansion occupied by the Black Armor Army.

At this time, spring farming was being plowed everywhere, so Liu Feng certainly could not let the Wei army rush in and destroy the farming affairs, so he planned to lead the army to intercept and fight to the death.

Since it was a decisive battle, we naturally had to choose a favorable place. There were hills on all sides of it, which was also a must-pass road for the Wei army. Liu Feng led the army to garrison here in advance, waiting for labor.

Although I have seen the enemy in the sky, it will take a long time to get closer to the enemy.

As the sound of horns and drums sounded everywhere, the troops began to arrange men and rush to garrison them everywhere.

Half an hour later, the Wei army's blockbusters had already entered sight.

The formation they set up was very big, and the dense soldiers covered the entire plain!

Suddenly, thick smoke began to rise from the forests on both sides of the plain, and then a large area of ​​fire was seen. This was to prevent the Black Armored Army from hiding in the forest and setting fire to the mountains.

Fortunately, Liu Feng didn't arrange any manpower there either.

The camp on the Black Armor Army was in a lying U-shaped shape, with the opening facing the Wei army.

If the Wei army wanted to pass here, there was not only one road. In addition to coming in from the entrance, they could also spend more time detours.

But Xiao Gan obviously didn't plan to take a detour.

The sound of horse hooves became louder and louder, and the infantry and cavalry of the Wei army stopped at the gentle gap in the south.

Looking at the pocket formation ahead, the generals of the Wei army commanded the troops and generals were all over the place.

The command of troops is very particular about the geographical location. Such a battlefield situation is obviously very unfavorable to them. Once they attack, they will be attacked from three sides.

"The prince, he is cunning and obviously afraid of our cavalry. We cannot fall into the trap. We will think it is best to take a detour and lead them out."

A general suggested to Xiao Gan.

His words also received support from many people.

"This is a letter of war sent by Liu Feng."

Xiao Gan took out a document and said, "You all look at it."

After a moment, many Wei generals who had read the contents of the war book looked indignant.

"It's too rampant. I'll be willing to be the pioneer and destroy the arrogance of the mud-legged one for the prince."

No matter how the Black Armor Army was good at fighting in the Gan country, in the eyes of the Northern Wei people, they were born into chaos and belonged to mud-legged people.

"No, this is clearly a technique of provoking generals. Don't be fooled!"

"With that being said, if we avoid war, it would not be a pity for us. Maybe the rumors of our timid battle will be spread by then."

"As long as we win, no rumor can be broken, I support the detour!"

The generals were divided into two factions, and no one could convince anyone.

At this time, Xiao Gan spoke, "What you all said makes sense, but I have decided to go to war with Liu Feng here."

Hearing this, the generals around him fell silent.

"However, if Liu Feng set up this pocket array, we won't have to get in."

Xiao Gan pointed in one direction, "Just send troops to attack one side, you can turn passive into activeness. As long as the other two sides come to rescue them, I will let them be lost under the iron hoof of the Great Wei!"

······

Zhu Laoqi was originally a butcher from Qingzhou. When Xiao Gan was recruiting troops a year ago, he was forcibly recruited into the army. Because he was so strong that he had some strength and was good at a sword technique, he was promoted to the commander of the sword and shield soldier.

There were more than 3,000 people in the forward battalion where he was located, and he was standing at the front of the team and forming a huge array.

To put it bluntly, the so-called vanguard camp is the cannon fodder camp. All the soldiers here are recruited recruits, with a variety of personnel, including farmers and death row prisoners.

Looking at the tight defensive camps on the hillside ahead, Zhu Laoqi felt as if he was ashamed. His eyes kept looking at the surrounding environment to see if he could find a place to hide. However, the trees on the hillside had long been cut off, and there was not even a little dense grass, so there was nowhere to hide.

At this moment, a cavalry rushed over from the gap between the phalanx behind, "Transfer the order, the war drums sound, and you will immediately attack the enemy's left-wing camp! Accept the order flag!"

"Get orders!"

The commander general of the Forward Battalion shouted and took over the order flag.

The Forward Battalion has more than one battalion of 3,000 people. As a cannon fodder battalion, there are four such a square formation, each with more than 3,000 people, totaling more than 12,000 people.

After receiving the order flag, the general began to issue military orders to the captain and the captain under his command.

Zhu Laoqi soon heard the voice of the camp's captain in the crowd, "Brothers, when the war drum sounds, you will rush towards me, the queue will not be in chaos! Those who retreat in the battle will be killed!"

After a while.

"Dong, dun, dun..."

A series of drums rang slowly behind.

Meanwhile, all the officers of the forward battalion began to hiss, "Attack!"

Zhu Laoqi took his own people, followed the flag in front of him, and began to move forward according to the queue he had trained in the previous few months.

But as the team walked, it began to deform, and there were beatings and scoldings from time to time in the crowd.

I don’t know how long it took, but a loud roar suddenly came from the front: “Rise the shield!”

Zhu Laoqi instinctively raised a piece of the door panel in his hand to protect his upper body.

He suddenly forced hundreds of thousands of young and strong people to conquer in Qingzhou. Even if the Xiao family is rich, he could not provide any armament that could equip hundreds of thousands of people. Therefore, most of the new recruits brought their own weapons, and the pig-killing knife and door panel in Zhu Laoqi's hand were brought out from his home by himself.

The expected rain of arrows did not come, but a strange noise came.

As Zhu Laoqi walked, he couldn't help but look up and saw a huge rock that was tall one person jumping down from above, then flew over from his head and suddenly smashed into the crowd behind him!

All this happened in the moment of lightning, and the person who was smashed had no time to dodge.

There were screams with crying sounds from behind, and they were smashed to death, but the person who was rubbed by the rolling stone was seriously injured and half dead.

Zhu Laoqi swallowed, his hips trembled slightly, and he couldn't walk anymore.
Chapter completed!
