Chapter seven hundred and thirty sixth after the break
Chapter 736: After the break
When the Polu army of around 15,000 men was assembled, Yan Liang shouted directly at Xu Rong and Zhang He.
"Walk."
"withdraw."
The two men did not hesitate and led the army to retreat backwards, while the Polu army was in full formation, preparing to welcome the arrival of death.
"The enemy has withdrawn."
"Follow me."
As soon as Yuan Shu's army withdrew, Lu Bu and Cao Ren, who were facing them, immediately sensed this and ordered the pursuit without hesitation.
"Crossbow arrows, release."
Facing the enemy rushing toward him like a wave, Yan Liang directly ordered to fire arrows.
Countless crossbow arrows tore through the sky like locusts and shot toward the opposite side.
"puff."
"ah."
"Help."
A series of screams were heard, and Cao Jun and Lu Bujun, who were the fastest, fell down in response, using their bodies to create a death boundary.
"Shield, where is the shield?"
"Form up and defend."
Facing the Polu army that had successfully formed a formation, Cao Ren and Lu Bu knew that dealing with the stragglers would lead to death, so they ordered the army to stop and begin to form a formation.
"Archer, fire ten rounds."
Taking advantage of the enemy's formation, Yan Liang was not idle and directly ordered the archers to release arrows.
The archer took out the arrows from his quiver, inserted them into the soil, and then started firing ten rounds in rapid succession.
The waves of arrow rain were hard to see at night, and only the sound of Qiu Qiuqiu could be heard, falling into the two armies.
"It's bows and arrows, shields raised high, and the army retreats."
Listening to the wails one after another, Cao Ren immediately judged that they were the enemy's bows and arrows, so he immediately ordered the shields to defend, and at the same time, the army slowly formed a formation back.
Soon the two armies completed their initial formation, and then under the command of Cao Ren and Lu Bu, the army began to slowly press forward.
"If you break the Lu army, you will definitely win."
Facing the enemies who had formed their formation, Yan Liang knew that they would no longer be able to taste the sweetness just now. What they would face next was the enemy's all-out attack. Whether they could save Zhang He and Xu Rong's army depended on how long they could hold on.
"If you break the Lu army, you will definitely win."
"If you break the Lu army, you will definitely win."
"If you break the Lu army, you will definitely win."
As Yan Liang shouted, countless Polu soldiers also held their necks and shouted loudly.
"Archers, shoot your arrows."
Cao Ren gave an order, and countless bows and arrows shot up into the sky, like a dark cloud, covering the Polu army.
"Shield protects against arrows."
Listening to the sound, Yan Liang knew that the enemy's bows and arrows were coming, and directly ordered the shield to defend against the arrows.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding."
A series of sounds like rain hitting banana trees resounded through the sky, accompanied by screams, which were particularly deafening in the night sky.
"Kill, defeat them."
Lu Bu took the lead, and the red rabbit horse rushed directly to the Polu army formation like a bolt of red lightning. Fang Tian drew his halberd in a circle and slammed it on the shield in front of him.
A flash of bright sparks looked particularly bright red at night, and then the four or five shield bearers in front of him flew out like flying immortals from the sky.
"To close the gap, I must stop the enemy."
The leader of the team in charge shouted loudly, and the soldiers behind the shield bearer immediately moved forward, trying to fill the gap, but were knocked out again by Lu Bu.
Lu Bu moved forward all the way, and even three or four rows of shield walls could not stop him. He was directly punched through, breaking through the defense of the shield wall. Just as Lu Bu was about to rush forward, he heard a burst of loudspeaker sound, and his body instantly became filled with excitement.
I got goosebumps, and some places even started to feel painful.
This is a premonition that only top generals can have. If there is numbness and pain there, it proves that there is a greater chance of being attacked. It is faster than it is late. Lu Bu Fangtian thrust his halberd directly into the ground, and then suddenly pulled out a piece of it.
The barrier made of earth and stone, Red Rabbit Horse was also psychic, and led Lu Bu back into the shield wall like lightning.
Even in this situation, Lu Bu was not immune. There was a sharp crossbow arrow stuck in his shoulder, and blood was flowing out.
After avoiding this wave of crossbow arrows, Lu Bu once again rode his horse and charged forward, directly charging into the middle of the crossbowmen on the opposite side. Fang Tian drew his halberd and slashed horizontally and vertically to defeat the crossbowmen.
"kill."
Lu Bu's side was powerful, and Cao Jun's side was also powerful. Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, and Li Dian, with four horses and four spears, rushed forward in a perfect glyph shape.
Xiahou Dun put his spear on the shield, then used both arms to force the shield hand to fly away, and then rushed forward directly into the shield wall.
Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren lined up on both sides of Xiahou Dun. Their two iron spears flew left and right, directly tearing down the surrounding shield wall in pieces.
Li Dian was behind Xiahou Dun, and any soldiers and horses who attacked Xiahou Dun would be killed under the spear.
The four of them were like a moving tank, and the shield wall in front of them was like an adobe wall, and they simply ran over it.
"Fire the arrow."
Yan Liang had already reserved crossbowmen to prevent enemy generals from charging into the formation. Now Xiahoudun and his four men had just rushed out, and more than fifty crossbow arrows were fired directly at them.
"Quickly rewind."
Feeling the oncoming threat, Xiahou Dun could only wave the iron gun in his hand with all his strength, using himself as a barrier to block the arrows.
A series of noises were heard, and Xiahou Dun was hit by several arrows and was bleeding all over his body. Fortunately, he was highly skilled in martial arts and completely avoided the vital points on his body. Therefore, although his condition was miserable, his life was not in danger.
With Xiahou Dun's resistance, Cao Ren and the other three retreated first and then advanced. After the crossbows were fired, they were like tigers coming out of the mountain, charging directly into the crossbowmen, killing them in the blink of an eye.
Although the two generals were injured by arrows, their bravery was effective. The soldiers and horses under the two men followed the gap opened by Lu Bu and Cao Ren and began to attack the Polu army's formation. After a while, some people were killed.
Pass through the shield wall.
"Protect the General."
"Protect the General."
"Protect the General."
Following a burst of shouting, the soldiers who rushed over immediately surrounded several generals, shields extending outward to protect the safety of several people.
"kill."
Yan Liang gave an order, and the swordsmen and shieldmen who were waiting behind the shield roared and killed Lu Bu and the others.
"Change the target and break up the shield wall first."
Looking at the swordsmen and shieldmen rushing towards them, Lu Bu and the others couldn't help but feel numb. They were brave, but they were not fools. If they continued to charge forward in the face of so many enemies, they would not be brave or risk death.
Several generals immediately turned around and led their soldiers and horses to start a counterattack against the shield wall behind them. Only by defeating the shield wall could their army attack them and kill the group of Polu troops in front of them.
A group of people frantically attacked the defense line of the shield wall. Facing the shield wall soldiers who were attacked from both sides, they were beaten for a while. More and more gaps were opened. Soldiers from both Lu Bu and Cao Jun followed the gaps in the shield wall.
, passed through the shield wall like mercury leaking out, and began to attack the Polu army.
"Archers, shoot the shield wall."
Seeing that the shield wall was in danger and was about to be breached, Yan Liang had no choice but to issue a cruel order, raining arrows on the front shield wall.
"General, the brothers at Shield Wall are still insisting."
After hearing Yan Liang's order, Captain Polu couldn't help but burst into tears.
"The shield wall was broken in just a moment. We are alone, and we are alone. If the enemy breaks through the shield wall, it will be difficult for us. Order the archers to shoot at the shield wall. They are fully armored, and it will not do much harm to them, but it will
Only by killing a large number of enemy troops can we buy more time for the Jizhou Army."
This is an emergency moment. How could Yan Liang not know that the soldiers on the shield wall are still holding on, but there is really no way. If this had not been the end of the battle, he would not have given such an order.
"For the Jizhou Army."
With tears in his eyes, the captain slapped Yan Liang on Kai's chest.
"Archers prepare, target shield wall, release."
Following the captain's order, although the archer hesitated a little, he immediately bent his bow and nocked an arrow, took aim and scattered the arrow.
In the dark night, no one could see the rain of arrows coming. Only when the arrows fell did the screams come one after another.
