Chapter 313: Death in battle(2/3)
The members of the sect were still standing under his canopy, looking at the thousands of horses galloping ahead and the brave warriors waving their arms and swaying in their hearts.
At this time, he suddenly saw an army of thieves coming towards him, with murderous intent so high that even the clouds in the sky were broken.
The clan members subconsciously had to run around to get out of the way.
But he suddenly saw the contempt in the eyes of all the soldiers behind him.
The clan member was so embarrassed that his whole neck turned red. He waved his riding whip in embarrassment and roared:
"Crash over and show them who the hero is!"
hero?
The officials behind Zong Yuan were disdainful for a while, but they had already been ready to charge, just waiting for Zong Yuan's words.
As a result, the remaining 300 Youzhou Tuqi Central Military Headquarters began to increase their horse speed, preparing to intercept this group of fish that had slipped through the net.
…
Sun's armor was covered with blood, and three of the horsetails in his hands were broken.
At this time, he only had a ring-headed knife left in his hand. Under the roaring speed of the horse, petals of blood bloomed on the enemy's throat.
Ji Sun no longer had any extra thoughts. The Huanshou Sword in his hand would determine the life and death of the person under the sword, as well as the fate of their five hundred riders.
He shouted:
"Where are Xu He and Zhang Rao's troops?"
The cavalryman beside the grandson was Zhang Tai, a great tycoon from Jinan, who was always guarding the grandson.
At this moment, when he heard the question of offering sacrifices to his grandson, he stood up with one foot on the stirrup and looked back.
At first, there was a lot of noise, but it was far away and unclear, so Zhang Tai couldn't see clearly.
But soon, a piece of yellow, no, a raging yellow tide came into view. It was countless yellow flags in yellow clothes and yellow flags between the sky and the earth, and it was a tsunami from the mountains shouting for good luck in the world.
Zhang Tai was moved to tears and said to the sacrificial Sun:
"Qu Shuai, they are here, right behind."
Ji Sun laughed loudly, killed another person, then pointed his sword at a general not far away, and said boldly:
"Behead that officer, and we'll return to the formation."
After saying that, Jisun quickly dodged the arrows shot from the opposite side and missed them.
The one who made the mistake was the Han general on the opposite side.
Zhang Tai and others heard the order to sacrifice the sun and screamed:
"Kill this officer."
After saying that, Ji Sun took more than fifty cavalry and headed straight towards the Han general to kill him.
…
The shouts shook the sky, and fighting filled the fields. The great Han Bei Zhonglang took Lu Zhi's helmet and armor, and got out of the ox cart, all dressed up.
He felt the howling of the north wind and couldn't help but wrap the cloak tightly around him.
Seeing the opportunity, Bian Jushu immediately approved another blouse for Lu Zhi, but Lu Zhi refused.
Lu Zhi asked the general Xianyu Yin:
"How's the war going?"
Xian Yuyin just gathered the military reports from each battalion and immediately replied:
"The war has made great progress. The enemy has poured into our ranks with approximately a thousand people. Each camp has captured more than 400 levels. The rest of the army has been defeated. However, I am also chasing them with more and more horses. I believe they will be defeated soon.
Annihilate.”
Seeing that Lu Zhi was still listening, Xian Yuyin started to say something slightly negative:
"But there is a group of thieves, about 500 people, and they are still fighting hard. However, the deputy commander-in-chief has come to report, and the enemy has been surrounded. We are about to annihilate them."
"Also, the enemy's infantry has already caught up. At a glance, there are 40,000 of them."
At this time, Lu Zhi's eyes widened and he cursed:
"Where did you learn the official accent? The most important thing is to be the first to say it. Do you understand the importance?"
Then asked directly:
"How far is the enemy from here, what is their formation, and have they engaged in battle?"
Xian Yuyin was taught this lesson and no longer dared to use the official skills his brother had taught him to come to Hu to harass Lu Zhi, so he directly replied:
"The thieves have already connected with the rear army. According to this, they are probably less than two miles away. However, neither army has launched a general attack, so it is still a small-scale conflict."
Lu Zhi nodded, turned around and pointed at a guard and ordered:
"Go to the deputy commander and ask him to annihilate the thieves' cavalry, then prepare the Youzhou assault cavalry, and attack the infantry on the opposite side first. At this time, their cavalry is completely dead, and this is where their Youzhou assault cavalry is at its best."
The guard got the command arrow here and was about to mount his horse.
Not far away, there was the sound of horse hooves, and a sentry horse came in panic.
Before the horse stopped, the knight had already rolled off his saddle and reported to Lu Zhi in a panic:
"Commander, the deputy commander is dead."
Lu Zhi's hands trembled, his eyes widened, and he asked:
"Didn't you just say that you are going to kill the thief? How did you die? Tell me!"
The sentry horse immediately said:
"The thieves broke through the White Horse captain's defense line and attacked directly towards the deputy commander's headquarters. The deputy commander fought bravely and led his brothers to counterattack. Unfortunately, he was beheaded by the thief general."
After saying that, the sentry horse just whined and cried loudly.
Lu Zhi was so angry that he lost his riding whip and said bitterly:
"Don't you know how to get out of the way of this sect member? He is handsome, not a barbarian. He should lead by example."
As soon as these words came out, the sentry horse couldn't help but tremble, obviously thinking of the way the military officials looked at the clan members before.
Lu Zhi asked again:
"Then who is in charge of the Youzhou Assault Cavalry now, and what is the situation with the thief general now?"
The sentry horse hurriedly said:
"The person in charge now is Cui Sima of the former army. As for the thief general, after beheading the deputy commander, he took his troops and retreated to the thief formation in the rear."
Lu Zhi was so angry that the famous Youzhou Tuqi allowed people to come and go as he pleased. But he endured it. He took a staff and gave it to the sentry horse and ordered:
"Since Cui Sima has taken charge, give him my scepter and let him control the Youzhou sudden cavalry."
The sentry horse respectfully took it and was about to leave when Lu Zhi asked again:
"What's your name?"
The sentry horse got excited and fell to his knees, reporting:
"Humble job, Yan Rou."
"Very good, Yan Rou. After you send the scepter, order Cui Sima to assemble the Youzhou sudden cavalry. Then wait for my military order and don't act without authorization."
"Here!"
Later, the sentry horse named Yan Rou rode back to the army with the staff and went to Cui Jun to give orders.
…
Guanghe six years, November 12th.
The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans conducted their final review in front of the Han army's front line.
Jisun had already returned to the main formation with his cavalry and began to take over and support the command of the entire army.
But there were less than half of the 1,500 horsemen who set off when they returned. Hundreds of people died in exchange for this decisive battle.
At this time, in this open land, the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans formed five huge square formations.
The first two huge phalanxes are the main Yellow Turban force from Zhang Rao's Pingyuan County and the main Yellow Turban force from Xu He's Le'an Kingdom. As for the last three formations, they are all Jinan Yellow Turban troops.
Previously, Xu He had already led his troops to conduct a tentative attack on the Han army in front.
What they were attacking was the Infantry School Lieutenant Division, one of the five divisions of the Northern Army. Its large pillars were covered with iron armor, like forests and walls, and were like the Great Wall of flesh and blood.
This time, Xu He and others knew how strong this army was.
At this time, the sun rose to its highest point, and the red light shone on the frozen soil, giving the humans below the warmest moment of the day.
The officers and soldiers in the front row of the Han army looked at the huge phalanx on the opposite side, and their vision suddenly became blurry. Some experienced military officers immediately understood what was going on.
This is the consequence of not eating.
At this time, they were shocked to realize that they had not eaten a drop of food since leaving camp in the morning. This physical condition obviously affected their morale.
Soon there were military officers to report to the rear, and then the men were asked to eat something as quickly as possible. Eat whatever is in their bags.
