The man's voice was so loud that it could be heard far away despite the howling north wind. Xu Zizhen vaguely heard someone calling him in the melee. When he looked up, he saw that it was Han Wu who was under the tent of Zhongshi. He was shocked and shocked.
He shouted happily: "Fifth brother? How could it be you?"
Han Wu laughed heartily and rushed forward with three thousand cavalry like the wind. He quickly broke through a gap in the group of Xia soldiers that besieged Xu Zizhen from the other side.
The three thousand Song Cavalry put on their spears again and charged in with great momentum. This group of soldiers were all carefully selected. They were agile and quick in reaction. What's even more rare was that they cooperated extremely well. Every soldier was in the same position.
While attacking and assassinating, they did not forget to assist their companions in defense. They caught the Xixia army by surprise, and they quickly rushed into the Xixia cavalry formation.
Han Wu's 3,000 fast cavalry rushed into the battle, causing the Xixia army to panic. Xu Zizhen seized this fleeting opportunity and immediately led the horse thieves to break out of the encirclement and move towards Han Wu.
The three hundred horse thieves were almost exhausted after killing them. Everyone was gritting their teeth and holding on. They might run out of energy at any time and be surrounded and killed. Han Wu's appearance was like a shot in the arm, and everyone was energized.
I mustered up my spirit and used my last strength to charge forward.
Although Xu Zizhen had internal strength, such a long period of fierce fighting had consumed too much of his physical strength. His hands had begun to tremble unconsciously, and his throat was a little fishy. He knew that if he continued like this, he would definitely fall here.
Now he really began to regret the decision he made at that time. He still underestimated the Xixia people too much.
The appearance of Han Wu calmed him down a little. Although they had never fought together, and he seemed to have never heard of this figure in history, he had already witnessed Han Wu's status in the Deshun Army. Since he dared
If he led a mere three thousand men to attack the Xixia Central Army, he would naturally be sure of it.
Soon, two groups of men and horses rushed the Xia army to pieces. Although they were still much larger in number than Xu Zizhen and the others, the balance of the battle had tilted, and the situation had completely shifted towards the enemy.
The direction was favorable to the Song army.
Xu Zizhen and Han Wu soon joined together, but at this moment, the iron kite that was blown to pieces by the rocket in the distance had already recovered its breath. It had to be said that this was the elite of the Xixia army after all.
Although he was beaten into an extremely embarrassing situation, he was still able to integrate himself again at a very fast speed.
Bu Fen spotted movement in the distance with his sharp eyes and said in surprise: "No, Brother Xu, look over there."
Xu Zizhen looked in the direction he pointed, and suddenly became angry and anxious. He grabbed Han Wu and cursed: "You have blown the iron kite into a bird like that. Why don't you clean it up before coming here? Now this is
Are you waiting to be made into dumplings?"
Han Wu didn't even look at Tie Yaozi and said with a smile: "Isn't that to save you? We guessed it when we were locked up. The group of people behind Xia Gou must be you. My brother is afraid that something bad will happen to you, so who cares about Tie Yaozi?"
Kite? Hehe... How about it, brother, is it interesting?"
Xu Zizhen was angry and funny. Just when he was about to say something else, he suddenly slapped his forehead: "No, with your fear of death, you must have been prepared, right?"
Han Wu laughed loudly: "You are smart, although I, Han Wu, am a rough man, I have never been rough in fighting..." Just as he was saying this, the remaining Iron Kites had formed their formation again and rushed towards them.
.
There were less than two thousand of the five thousand Iron Kites left, but when they rushed up at speed, they still carried an unparalleled power. The heavy iron hoofs stepped on the solid ground, and the entire plain seemed to be shaken.
stand up.
Three thousand Song cavalry and horse thieves were still fighting hard. With the support of their strong fighting spirit, they were able to completely suppress the Xia army, which was far more numerous than them. It seemed that it was only a matter of time before they were annihilated.
Han Wu's expression did not change, he still had that careless look. Looking at the iron kite rushing towards him, he suddenly whistled. Following his whistle, the formation of Song Cavalry changed again. The soldiers who originally scattered and fought separately
They all retreated to the periphery at the same time. Xu Zizhen was looking at it in a daze when he heard Han Wu shout in a low voice: "Let your brother follow, hurry up!"
Xu Zizhen was stunned and immediately made a gesture to Bu Fen without thinking. Bu Fen immediately understood and immediately led the horse thieves to follow Song Qi and retreat. At this time, Tie Yaozi had already chased him about a hundred steps away.
The sudden change in formation made Xu Zizhen very puzzled. Xia Jun, who was about to be wiped out, suddenly got a chance to breathe. The iron kites in the distance gradually approached, followed closely by the remaining Bubazi, and in the distance
The Xixia Central Army at the other side had another group of armored cavalry rushing toward them.
The advantage he finally gained suddenly seemed like a defeat. Seeing that he was about to be surrounded again, Xu Zizhen finally couldn't help but asked: "Fifth brother, what are your plans?"
Han Wu took his time and smiled: "Don't worry, you will still follow me later, and run when you need to."
Xu Zizhen was almost going crazy. He felt that he could not keep up with Han Wu's thoughts at all. But just when he was about to ask more questions, he heard a series of gunshots ringing through the sky from the door in the distance.
Han Wu shouted: "Run!"
The Song cavalry all turned their horses' heads and ran towards the foot of Gaolan Mountain not far away. The horse thieves immediately followed without any need to say hello. At this moment, shells flew one after another with a sharp whistling sound.
Came over.
These shells seemed to have been miscalculated, and they all fell behind the Iron Kites. Xu Zizhen was so angry that he was about to curse, but at this moment, a scene that stunned him appeared.
Boom boom boom...
A series of explosions suddenly sounded, and the shells exploded one after another. Amidst the shocking explosions, huge clouds of fire rose up.
The armored war horses were frightened again, and they could feel that this time the explosion was stronger and stronger than the previous one. The hot temperature made these war horses no longer able to control themselves, and they fled forward in panic.
After the explosion just now, the Iron Kites have untied the iron ropes from the war horses in order to prevent the Song Army from disturbing their beloved horses with another explosion. This decision now seems to be a wise decision, because even if the war horses are exploded again
He was shocked, but he didn't fall into pieces because he was connected like before.
More than a thousand armored horses were running wildly, but the sound of the cannons that were closed soon rang out again, one after another, unhurriedly, but always exploded around those armored horses, and the clouds of fire seemed to have been carefully calculated.
, and actually miraculously controlled these fleeing horses to one place.
The knights on the horses were unable to control the frightened horses, so they had no choice but to lie on their backs and let them run away. Moreover, the repeated explosions had completely deprived them of their fighting spirit. They wished that the horses could run faster.
.
But soon they discovered something that horrified them - these frightened horses were crashing into the depths of their army, and the first to bear the brunt was the group of cavalry that had just been killed by Han Wu and Xu Zizhen.
Three thousand Song troops and horse thieves had safely retreated to the foot of the mountain. Looking at the Xixia troops not far away who were knocked over by iron kites, Xu Zizhen opened his mouth wide. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and looked at Han Wu.
Chichi said: "Fifth brother, you... what is your name?"
Han Wu was watching the fun and excitement, and casually replied: "Don't you know my name yet? My name is Shizhong, and my courtesy name is Liangchen."
Xu Zizhen only felt a scorching thunder striking down, and he was stunned and said: "Are you... Han Shizhong?"
