The city gate suddenly opened, and a huge military flag with the word Zhao was erected.
Brother Diao and the other three thousand Mo Dao team took off their armor.
Adding armor to the already extremely heavy Mo Dao would cause too much weight, which would be detrimental to their performance.
Three thousand swordsmen lined up, holding long swords and everyone looked solemn.
Behind them is a phalanx of spears. Each of these spearmen carries two war spears, one long and one short.
The long one is about one foot, and the short one is about six feet. They are specially used to deal with cavalry.
There was an archer hidden beside each cavalryman, and 25,000 people formed a formation, with a majestic momentum like a rainbow.
"General! General! The enemy has left the city!"
In the enemy's tent, the general was worrying about how to break through the damn Lion City. When he suddenly heard the report from his subordinates, he was surprised and delighted.
"What did you say? The enemy troops left the city?"
"That's right, General, the enemy army has left the city, and it looks like they are going to fight our army to the death!"
"Ha, they are really a group of people who don't care about life and death. Inform Jimuyan! Let his cavalry charge me and crush these damn flies!"
The general's eyes were full of violence: "I will dry all the people in that city into dried meat!"
"As you command!"
The two armies were arrayed, and although they were far apart, the murderous atmosphere permeated the entire battlefield.
On the top of the city, Zhao Kang picked up the drumstick and hit the leather drum hard.
There was a thud, like a muffled thunder suddenly exploding, followed by a second drum.
Brother Diao Huang Tianxing, who was standing at the front, shouted "Get up!"
The next moment, three thousand Mo Dao soldiers held long swords in both hands and stared at the enemy troops gathering in front of them.
The war horse snorted in displeasure, its hooves scratched the ground, and shouts came one after another.
The Jin soldiers let out strange sounds in their mouths, listening to the increasingly rapid and secret sounds coming from the enemy.
Set of drums.
Jimu Yan shouted "Charge!"
The next moment, tens of thousands of cavalry rushed towards Ganjun.
Within a hundred steps, the archers in the spear phalanx drew their bows and nocked arrows one after another, and shot out six thousand arrows, as if locusts were densely packed halfway through the border.
Some of the enemy soldiers failed to dodge and were immediately shot in the face and fell down. They were then trampled into a pulp by their own people.
Some were pierced like a hedgehog and died on horseback.
Just as the enemy troops rushed forward, Brother Diao shouted and slashed with his sword with all his strength.
The light of the sword flashed across like lightning, and countless enemy soldiers were hacked apart by blood!
It was an unimaginable bloody scene, and a large number of the cavalry troops at the forefront fell instantly.
Before this was over, the pikemen behind the Mo Dao team held out spears with both hands. The ten-foot-long spear gave them a lot of space to use.
The square formation also changed in an instant. The archers quickly retreated, and the sword and shield soldiers rushed forward with their shields. In an instant, a copper wall and an iron wall were formed at the front.
The cavalry collided with the copper wall and the iron wall and instantly turned them upside down!
The spear poked out from the gap in the shield to kill the enemy. The entire phalanx was as indestructible as an indestructible fortress!
Zhao Kang, who was beating drums on the city wall, nodded secretly as he watched this scene. The reason why he did not use cannons at the beginning was to test how the White Tiger Army would perform on the battlefield when facing these barbarians.
So far, the results are undoubtedly surprising.
Sun Fang, the commander-in-chief of the White Tiger Army, was at the rear on his horse, looking at the battle situation from all directions and giving orders constantly. The flags of the flag bearers around him changed, and the phalanx also changed accordingly.
city head
Zhou Long, who was on top, squinted his eyes and saw another wave of strange enemy troops among the charging cavalry.
He immediately understood that this was most likely the group of enemy troops that Zhao Kang was talking about who used gunpowder to breach the city gate.
"Commander, those guys showed up." Zhou Long said.
Zhao Kang kept beating the drum, "What's the distance?"
"About four hundred steps." Zhou Long made a visual inspection.
Zhao Kang laughed and said, "Let Li Goudan fire, aim at those guys and hit them hard!"
Half a minute later, the sound of cannons sounded, and the Jin's cavalry instantly went into chaos. The White Tiger Army below began to take advantage of this opportunity to crazily slaughter the enemy troops at the front.
At this moment, a cavalry force of ten thousand people charged from behind the Jin people.
After receiving the news report, Jimuyan was immediately shocked, "How come there are enemy troops in the rear! Get ready to defend!"
"It's too late, general, the enemy is already less than a hundred steps away from us!"
Just as he finished speaking, Ji Muyan heard a burst of killing sounds. The auxiliary soldiers behind him were instantly killed by Gao Yuan who charged with 15,000 men!
"Withdraw! Withdraw quickly!"
Jimuyan screamed in panic, but at this time, a figure wearing silver armor rushed forward.
He didn't even have time to see the other party's face clearly. Jimuyan only saw a pair of scarlet bloodshot eyes, flashing with extremely strong hatred, and he slashed with all his strength.
Directly cut his cavalry commander in half diagonally!
"Don't let anyone go!"
After the formation beheaded Jimuyan, Gao Yuan continued to lead his troops into the formation without any pause.
When the last drum beat finally settled, the earth was littered with corpses.
Only the soldiers of Qianguo and Jingguo were still standing.
"happy!"
Gao Yuan is covered in blood
The enemy finally let out a bad breath today and glanced at Zhao Kang who was walking to the door.
He turned over and dismounted, grinned and clasped his fists, "National Master, am I not late?"
"The timing is just right."
Just as Gao Yuan was about to say something, he saw gun carts being pushed out one after another from the city gate.
Zhao Kang had sent cannons to Jingguo before, so Gao Yuan was no stranger to it. He watched Zhao Kang's subordinates push the cannons out of the city.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Is the Imperial Guard planning to counterattack?"
"The defeat of the vanguard is a good opportunity to counterattack!"
Zhao Kang said coldly, "Sun Fang."
"The end is here!"
"I order you to lead your troops and cooperate with General Gao to pursue the enemy and capture Fucheng in Yizhou within two days!"
Sun Fang "The last general takes command!"
Gao Yuan also quickly said, "General, I will obey your order!"
After saying that, he got on his horse, summoned his soldiers and chased in the direction of the enemy's tent.
Sun Fang also led the soldiers of the White Tiger Army to follow, while Zhou Long led the artillery army to push seven artillery pieces as the rear army.
Before the news of the death of Jimuyan's 10,000 cavalrymen came back, the Jin general was shocked when he heard the news that Gao Yuan led his troops to attack.
He immediately stopped his troops from fighting with Gao Yuan. Sun Fang, who arrived a moment later, immediately led the White Tiger Army to assist Gao Yuan.
The two sides fought fiercely for a while, with many soldiers killed on both sides, and they seemed to be evenly matched.
However, as soon as the artillery force led by Zhou Long arrived, the situation immediately changed. After a few cannons, the enemy troops began to flee in panic, even leaving behind their baggage and food.
The first battle between Qian Jing and Qian Jing was a complete victory.
But not many people were happy. Looking at the place where the Jin people were stationed, they all looked ferocious!
