Chapter 500: The Decisive Battle in the Sea of ??Blood
Chapter 500 The Decisive Battle between Mountains of Corpse and Sea of Blood (2)
The fight has become numb, and blood can no longer stimulate people's nerves. The battle has lasted for more than two hours since the beginning and finally evolved into a decisive battle where nearly one million troops were put into it. Those who did not see this war with their own eyes cannot describe its magnificence and tragicity in words, and those who hear it cannot imagine what a bloody scene it was.
The land on this wasteland was soaked in blood that the soldiers were like stepping on the muddy road that had just rained. When their boots were stomping, they made a stinking sound, and the internal organs and dust mixed together to exude a fishy smell.
When the decisive battle came, Li Yuanshan personally took the spear and went into battle again after many years. The rebel leader wearing iron armor and his heavy cavalry rushed into the official army with his heavy cavalry, because the unparalleled combat power of the heavy cavalry was so strong that the official army began to retreat.
Jin Shixiong saw the heavy cavalry smashing his front army hard like a heavy hammer, and he raised his lips and sneered. It seemed that he was not worried that the heavy cavalry might influence the entire battle situation.
He raised his hand and waved the order flag. After the horn sounded, the official army's formation began to dodge to both sides and took the initiative to make way for the heavy cavalry. The rebel infantry following the official army thought he saw hope for victory, shouted and chased the heavy cavalry and stuffed it into the hole.
Just after the heavy cavalry penetrated into the official army array, Jin Shixiong looked back at the team behind him that had not been used. He pointed his hand at the heavy cavalry that had already been crushed by the central army and said loudly: "This is Li Ni's last ability. Whether he can clear the rebels in one fell swoop today depends on you! Your Majesty believes that you will be favored by you. If you want to repay the country, you will be in this battle!"
About a thousand warriors behind him began to shout, waving their special weapons.
These more than a thousand soldiers were specially selected by the emperor. It can be said that they are outstanding figures in the team, but they are not typical soldiers. These people are all from the Green Forest, and each of them has outstanding martial arts skills, but they are also the most difficult team to lead because they don’t know how to cooperate at all. These gangsters are rough and wild, and it is not easy to let them act completely according to the laws of the Great Sui army than to let them die.
The emperor did not allow these people to abide by military orders from beginning to end. They were the only team in the brave team that could drink before the war. The emperor gave them privileges that they could not even participate in the exercise with other soldiers. The purpose of their existence was to deal with Li Yuanshan's heavy cavalry today.
It is no secret that Li Yuanshan has such a powerful cavalry in his hand. Although the number is small and only two thousand is insufficient, he can easily crush it like an iron beast on the battlefield. The heavy armor on their bodies is not afraid of feather arrows, and even the sharp horizontal sword cannot break the thick armor. The heavy spear in their hands is too domineering and the infantry cannot resist it at all.
With Jin Shixiong's order, more than a thousand tourists rushed out towards the heavy cavalry. When they were still dozens of steps away from the heavy cavalry, they threw out their special weapons.
Perhaps this is not a weapon, it can only be said to be a tool.
A tool that barbarians in the north and south of the border often use when catching wild animals. A rope with stones tied to both ends. When they encounter prey, they throw it out. If they are accurately wrapped around the prey's legs, they can immediately capture the prey.
The ropes tied with stones at both ends flew out in a rotating manner. Although more than a thousand people did not cooperate, their reaction was far stronger than ordinary soldiers. After throwing the rope out, they did not stop and rushed towards the heavy cavalry. Not every rope could trip the horse's legs, but as long as one hundred people succeeded, it was enough.
Almost no one in the first row of heavy cavalry was lucky to dodge the rope because these gangsters had been preparing for a long time today. They might not practice like ordinary soldiers, but they had to make themselves proficient in using this simple beast-catching tool.
The dozens of heavy cavalry in front were tripped by the horse's hooves, and the horses rushed forward with a neighing sound. Because both the people and the horses were wearing heavy armor, it was not easy to stand up once they fell. And it was difficult for the heavy cavalry to stop the war horses immediately, so the heavy cavalry behind them could not stop hitting the comrades who fell in front.
The extremely powerful power of heavy cavalry not only comes from the strong armor and the strong physical fitness of the cavalry, but also requires dense formations to maintain sufficient crushing pressure.
But because of the dense formation, once the cavalry in front fell to the ground on a large scale, the people behind could only suffer.
At least seventy or eighty heavy cavalry horses were tripped and knocked down, causing at least two hundred heavy cavalry to come and fall to the ground. At this time, the arrogant and unruly tourists from the world came to show their skills. They jumped over lightly, not giving the fallen heavy cavalry a chance to stand up, and used the short iron rod in their hands to harvest the lives of heavy cavalry.
The armor of heavy cavalry can block sharp weapons, but cannot block the heavy blow of iron rods.
A gangster rushed over with a chuckle, kicking the heavy cavalry who was about to get up, and then strode up, dozens of kilograms of heavy iron rods in his hand slammed the cavalry's neck. The weakest defense of heavy cavalry is the neck. In order to ensure the necessary flexibility, the chain armor on the neck is not heavy. But even if it is heavy, the consequences of such a heavy iron rod hitting the throat can be imagined.
A light crack sound came from the heavy cavalry's neck, and then blood was overflowing from behind the face armor. The blood spit out from his mouth sprayed on the face armor, and soon there was no breathing.
These gangsters were drilling back and forth in the gaps between the heavy cavalry, avoiding the attack of the heavy spear and finding the right opportunity to start. The iron rod in their hands hit the horse's legs and immediately destroying the war horse, while the heavy cavalry that landed on the ground was only bulky and powerful.
The emperor, sitting on the high slope, looked at the heavy cavalry of Li Yuanshan, who was disturbed by the enemy generals of the martial arts, but there was no joy on his face. In order to deal with the heavy cavalry, he specially trained this team, and then these people used their actions to prove that they could also become the protagonists on the battlefield.
"What a pity."
The emperor murmured three words.
I don’t know if it’s a pity for those jianghu who were crushed by heavy cavalry or the elite cavalry.
...
...
"Your Majesty, it's not good!"
A messenger came quickly on horseback, and the war horse that caught up with Li Yuanshan shouted loudly: "General Zhou Dingguo's heavy armored infantry was stopped by the heavy armor of the official army. Our number was not superior. The enemy army seemed to know in advance that our heavy armored infantry were all on General Zhou's side, and had already prepared! Not only that, the right-wing troops were also frustrated, and Prince Yi's troops began to win a big victory, but they rushed too hard to break away from the central army, and were lured by the enemy and trapped in depth!"
Hearing this sentence, Li Yuanshan felt suffocating in his chest!
He endured it and swallowed the mouth of sweet blood that came out of his chest and abdomen, and his eyes instantly turned red.
The heavy-armored infantry were all in the Zhou Ding Kingdom, how could the Sui army know?
His younger brother, Li Yuankuo, the first prince of Yi, was simple and impulsive. The Sui army must have arranged tactics in advance. First, he pretended to be defeated and retreated to lure Li Yuankuo to pursue him, and then encircled Li Yuankuo's men into several sections to attack him. All the tactical arrangements of the Sui army were so targeted!
"Who leaked our tactics to the enemy!"
Li Yuanshan roared angrily, and finally couldn't help but gulp of blood rushing up and spurting it out.
"Your Majesty, let's withdraw your troops for the time being!"
A close friend begged: "I have lost the opportunity and been restrained everywhere. If I continue to fight, it will be more and more unfavorable. Your Majesty please make a decision early. Now it is still time to return to the army to defend Xiping City to regain morale!"
"No!"
Li Yuanshan roared hysterically: "You can't retreat! The prince hasn't gone far yet!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this roar.
The purpose of Li Yuanshan's decisive battle was to cover his son Li Xiaoche's escape? He was at the cost of himself and hundreds of thousands of troops to exchange for Li Xiaoche's life. People's hearts were immediately filled with sadness. It turned out that the emperor of the Great Zhou himself did not have the confidence to win the final battle.
"Continue to rush forward!"
Li Yuanshan roared angrily, without caring about the blood marks on the corner of his mouth: "If someone retreats before dark, he will be killed immediately! Come and tell the supervisor team that whoever retreats will kill whoever he retreats!"
He roared like a wild beast, with a hideous face.
"Report!"
A messenger came flying cavalry, his face full of panic: "Your Majesty, something big is not good! General Zhou's heavy armor was wiped out!"
"ah!"
Li Yuanshan shouted suddenly and stabbed the commander to death with a spear: "Who dares to say something bad in front of me again that such a disturbing morale of the army will be killed immediately!"
"His Majesty!"
At this moment, Song Qian, who was responsible for staying in Xiping City, would come here in a messy manner on his horse. He was a literati and riding his own riding skills, because he was anxious to come that even the Liang Guan was bumpy and he didn't know where to throw it.
"Your Majesty, please withdraw your troops quickly!"
Song Qianhui said breathlessly: "I was watching the battle on the city and found that both wings were broken. There was no sure of victory in this battle. Your Majesty's body of a thousand gold coins, please return to the army immediately, give up Xiping, and retreat directly to Jinyang! I know that Your Majesty is unwilling to accept it, but victory and defeat are common in military affairs. Why bother with the gains and losses for a while? Please think twice!"
Li Yuanshan was furious and was about to kill Song Qian when he was pushing his spear and was stopped by his trusted generals: "Your Majesty think twice, the Prime Minister is also thinking about Your Majesty!"
After being stopped, the angry Li Yuanshan yelled and cursed like crazy. Everyone persuaded him. It took a while for him to calm down. He glanced at these subordinates with red eyes, and the muscles on his face were twitching involuntarily. I don’t know how long it took, but he sighed heavily: “Forget it, Mingjin retreated!”
It was as if he had been exhausted in an instant, and he couldn't hold the heavy spear in his hand and fell to the ground with a sound.
"Can't yell the gold!"
Song Qianhui quickly stopped: "I have already informed that the generals of the infantry behind stop rushing forward. The heavy cavalry and infantry that had already rushed forward were not too late to recall them. Once the gold was heard, the two wings that were already defeated would immediately collapse. The soldiers of the central army retreated, and the enemy stuck to the back to chase them. Even the gods could not defeat the defeat. Your Majesty, at this time, can only give up the team in front and ask Your Majesty to retreat with the troops behind."
Li Yuanshan's face changed, and then he nodded slowly: "Just do what you said."
"Go and pass the orders quickly, the infantry behind retreat immediately. Don't listen to the orders of the horn, protect Your Majesty first!"
Song Qianhui shouted: "Let someone blow the horn to continue attacking!"
This decision was so cruel. More than 100,000 people in front were fighting with the Sui army. Song Qian would ask someone to continue to beat the horns and drums to attack, but he ordered the team behind to retreat, and the rebel soldiers in front became completely cannon fodder.
"Your Majesty will leave quickly, it will be too late if you don't leave!"
Song Qianhui reached out and grabbed the reins of Li Yuanshan's war horse and pulled the war horse backwards.
"Who...who betrayed me! Who leaked our tactics!"
Li Yuanshan still couldn't calm down, and his teeth were clattering.
"Who else can it be?"
Song Qian would sigh and thought to himself that I had advised you not to believe that guy, but you didn't listen. Today's defeat was actually destined to be the one you have been blinded and can't see through it anymore. When that guy came, I said that you must not relax and beware of this person, but it is not credible. Now it seems that I have guessed it.
But he didn't dare to say this.
