The cruelty on the battlefield is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Thousands of people are fighting in the mud next to the swamp lakes with a radius of several miles under the rain curtain. There are endless screams and wails. Blood is everywhere, and broken limbs can be seen everywhere. There are two officials and thieves.
There are many young soldiers who have just entered the battlefield and were horrified by the bloody scene in front of them. Those who were timid and afraid of death were either killed by their opponents or were shot by the friendly forces behind them. Those who did not have the courage to run were also scared to the point where their legs became weak.
Even when he was stabbed into the stomach by an opponent, he still wailed: "Don't kill me, I'm so scared..."
The smarter ones just lay down in the mud and pretend to be dead. Of course, there are some bloody men who carry knives and do it. They believe in a saying, the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. If they want to survive, they must kill their opponents!
Either because of the desire to survive or because of the tempting silver reward, this kind of person has become red-blooded on the battlefield. This is true for officers and soldiers, and so is the bandit army!
When Chang Yu arrived at the edge of the battlefield, the officers and soldiers had an overwhelming advantage due to the arrival of reinforcements. Chen Dafa moved the most courageous elite soldiers to the back of the formation to attack Jin Shengheng, but the pressure on Lu Daqi in front was relieved. Although the soldiers and horses had been killed
Even though he was exhausted, he still yelled and ordered an urgent attack. He wanted to take advantage of the moment when the rebels divided their forces and defeat them in one fell swoop. He also knew in his heart that if he failed to seize this opportunity and defeated Jin Shenghuan, he would be the one who would be defeated next.
It's just that the rebel army is surprisingly tough, and even though it's on the verge of defeat, it always stands firm and never retreats.
the reason is simple!
To the west is the Yangtze River, to the east is the Qingshan River, and there is an ambush behind them. They have no way to retreat! They can only fight to survive! As long as Chen Dafa defeats the ambush behind them, they can counterattack and even if they don't succeed, they will have a way out!
Therefore, they must fight to the death. No matter whether they are regular rebels or not, they all understand the situation in front of them. Fortunately, the opponent's officers and soldiers are also fledglings on the battlefield for the first time, so it is not that difficult, otherwise it will really be...
"Only one of the four Dongchang battalions is here to defeat the enemy, and no tactics are used at all!" Chang Yu looked at it for a while and shook his head slightly. Each of the four battalions under his command only had 300 people, but their strength was
Not comparable to the three thousand soldiers and horses in front of him, Chang Yu has absolute confidence that he can kill the thieves in just one cup of tea, no matter whether they are cavalry or infantry!
Li Muchian agreed very much, and nodded with half a smile: "I am willing to raise the bet by a hundred taels, sir, but are you still willing to continue betting?" As he said this, he glanced at Chang Yu's arms intentionally or unintentionally, the meaning was very obvious, I won, the money
Take back!
Unexpectedly, Chang Yu chuckled: "You have earned so much by cheating and kidnapping. I really can't bear to let you go bankrupt." He raised his hand and pointed south: "Look again, are we really sure to win?"
After throwing the telescope over, Li Muxian took it and looked up, the smile on his face gradually solidified!
Jin Shenghuan encountered a difficult situation!
He led his troops across the Qingshan River and killed them directly from behind. Logically speaking, the cavalry raid should be overwhelming, but now it is not so smooth. First of all, there is the terrain problem. There are swamps and puddles for more than ten miles around, and it has rained for several days.
The ground was so muddy that the horses couldn't even start running, and many even missed the mark and stumbled.
Taking advantage of the gap, Chen Dafa mobilized his most elite soldiers and horses as quickly as possible to attack them. Although most of them were infantry, they were all battle-hardened warriors. In this case, they were not afraid of the cavalry of the officers and soldiers at all.
Just go ahead and do it!
As soon as the two armies met, Jin Shenghuan knew that something was wrong! He had followed Zuo Liangyu and Lu Daqi to fight against Bai Wang in Jiangxi. He was bound to lose every battle, and even had a shadow. This time, he thought he was sure to win from the front and rear attacks, but what happened?
The advantage of the cavalry has not been fully utilized, but it is still restricted to a certain extent. If it were replaced by elite soldiers, it would not have much impact, but he leads a bunch of rookies, who only dare to go to the battlefield by getting chicken blood.
!
More than a thousand cavalrymen were unable to gain any advantage in the battle against hundreds of bandits. Those bandits who rushed over either killed people or beheaded horses. The swamp horses on the ground were not very maneuverable. The first few dozen cavalrymen who rushed over were completely wiped out in one fell swoop.
The ones behind were frightened, and their fear and fighting spirit disappeared. On the other hand, the thieves became more and more brave.
It's over, it's over! Jin Shenghuan was panicking in his heart. He couldn't hold up the wall with mud. He was frightened just after the fight. How could he fight...
"Sir, this battle is not good!" Li Muxian put down the telescope and frowned: "I expected it to be a fight, but I didn't expect it to be so unbearable!"
Chang Yu sneered and said nothing, and Li Muxian looked at Lu Daqi, Xu Hongji and others who were charging in the formation: "Unless we can quickly defeat the enemy here, it will be disadvantageous for us in a stalemate!"
"Not only is it disadvantageous, but it will definitely lead to defeat!" Chang Yu snorted coldly, took out the money from his arms and threw it to Li Muchian: "You win!"
Li Muchian was stunned: "Sir, this is..."
"I am sharpening my sword, but I cannot curl the blade. If I lose this battle and the army loses its morale, I can lose, but they must win." He turned around and shouted: "Kang Ren!"
"The humble position is here!"
Kuang Ren rode his horse forward, with a look of excitement on his face. He had guessed what was going on. As expected, Chang Yu gave a heavy drink: "Lead the brothers up and defeat the enemy with a cup of tea!"
"As a humble leader," Kuang Ren flashed a sneer on his face, raised his knife and shouted to his left and right: "Brothers, I will kill these thieves in just a cup of tea!"
Kill! Nearly a hundred personal guards led by Kuang Ren rushed into the formation.
Li Muchian took a long breath, looked at the ingot of silver in his hand, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This silver is a bit hot!"
"If you feel it's too hot, go and make me a glass of wine." At this moment, a clay figurine staggeringly approached with a knife. Personal attendant Chen Wangting, Song Luoshu and others were about to draw their swords when they realized that they looked familiar. It turned out to be Wuzhong.
"Hey, why are you acting like a bear?" Chang Yu laughed and scolded.
Wu Zhong went into the muddy water and gasped for air: "After thinking about it, it is better to be shot to death with an arrow than to be hacked to death by thieves with knives!"
"If you don't accept your fate, how can it be so easy to die?" Chang Yu took off the water bag and threw it over. Wu Zhong took the water bag and drank it all in one breath. Then the rain washed away the blood on his face and cursed: "That damn thing
My horse got stuck in the mud and I almost died from exhaustion. Also, fighting on this rainy day... it's so damn miserable. Can you change someone next time if something like this happens again? You have to get both rain and dew, so let that guy
When Mr. Guan goes out for a walk, he can't always do it by himself in a humble position."
Chang Yu laughed loudly: "You're a bastard and you've learned a new word." Then he turned to Chen Wangting and said, "If Mr. Guan's hands are itchy, you might as well go and have a good time."
Chen Wangting didn't want to join the battle and heard Chang Yu's words, so he scolded Wuzhong: "You will never forget me if you do good things." After saying that he joined the battle, Song Luoshu couldn't help but also wanted to fight.
Chang Yu nodded in agreement.
Chang Yu's personal guards are all tough soldiers who can be picked out of ten thousand. No matter whether they are cavalry or infantry, single or group fighting, they are beyond the reach of ordinary officers and soldiers. Even in such terrain, cavalry fighting is almost unaffected, and the thieves are also
They were also unable to withstand their offensive. As soon as dozens of cavalry entered the formation, the tired rebels who had already been killed were unable to stop them. They raised their swords and dropped their swords. They were all defeated. In the blink of an eye, they rushed to the rear of the rebels. Lu Daqi was overjoyed when he saw them.
Organize soldiers and horses to rush forward with this group of guards.
This charge was incredible. The bandit army could have withstood the officers and soldiers. However, when dozens of mounted murderers poured into the formation, the bandit army, who were mostly refugees, had no power to resist. They immediately collapsed and the officers and soldiers followed.
As soon as they came, the rebel army could no longer hold back and retreated like a tide. This frightened Chen Dafa, who was fighting with the ambush troops at the back and had the upper hand. He quickly tried to stop the rout, but was defeated like a mountain. The rebel army was so defeated.
At that time, both mentally and physically, he was on the verge of collapse and had no intention of fighting any longer.
To put it bluntly, Chang Yu's dozens of personal guards were the straw that broke the camel's back.
If the personal guards do not go into battle, even if the rebel army is flanked, they may use their willpower to fight to the death with the officers and soldiers. It is not known who will win in the end, but as soon as these dozens of cavalry warriors enter the scene, it will be over!
The rout at the front caused the thief army who was fighting with the cavalry led by Jin Shenghuan to be in disarray. They had no intention of fighting. Instead, the officers and soldiers who had just been beaten kept retreating and had little power to resist. Seeing the friendly troops coming from the front, the thief army had already collapsed. It was a good time to beat the drowned dog and improve their morale.
Suddenly it surged, and everyone began to rush forward with howls.
Soon Chen Dafa found that he had no wings to fly, there were wolves in front of him and tigers in the back, with the Yangtze River to the west and the Qingshan River to the east, there was nowhere to retreat!
What to do, what to do, retreat to the east, Chen Dafa suddenly had an idea. The ambush of the officers and soldiers came across the Qingshan River, so he could cross the river to escape. The east side was the only way to survive.
"Brothers, go east..." Chen Da, who was on the war horse, fell headfirst into the muddy water before he could finish his words. There was a sharp arrow stuck in his neck, and his limbs were still twitching. Kuang Ren shouted in the distance: "Thief
The leader is dead! Abandon your weapons and surrender without killing..."
