Chapter 1 Drumming (12)

When the general's battle flag fell, Wang Dangren's minions were in chaos. They were originally poorly trained, and they had just gone through half a day of rapid marching, so their muscles and bones were weak from exhaustion. Suddenly, they saw their comrades around them being chopped down one after another.

, the fate of his own general was uncertain, how could he still have any fighting spirit? In the blink of an eye, the formation dispersed, each one lost their swords, dropped their flags, and fled in all directions.

"Don't mess up, everyone, don't mess up, I'm not dead!" Wang Dangren was so angry that smoke came out of his ears and eyes, and he jumped on his feet and yelled. Just now he was accidentally shot to death by Li Xu, and when the soldiers were in chaos,

When they were fighting in a group, the opponent took the opportunity to step forward and cut down the general's flag, and then walked away.

"Put up the flag, put up the flag!" one of his subordinates reminded loudly. Wang Dangren suddenly understood and immediately ordered his soldiers to pick out a new battle flag. Although the enemy's momentum was amazing, the number of them was less than the two of his troops.

Success, it is impossible to kill everyone in an instant. As long as the king's battle flag is raised again, it will definitely calm the chaotic military morale. Who would have expected that God would not follow people's wishes, and as soon as his flag was raised, someone outside him

The sound of horse hooves became more urgent. Li Xu, who had already charged half a circle in the military formation, led the cavalry in a circle quickly, pointing the blade directly at the head of Wang Dangren's horse.

Wang Dangren was also frightened. He let out a roar and rushed forward with an iron spear. He had a scar as big as a bowl on his head. Since he was a bandit, he really wasn't afraid of death. He was helpless.

There were only a few people in the Huang camp who were not afraid of death. Most of them fled immediately when they saw hundreds of war horses rushing towards them. Wang Dangren's newly replaced war horses were blocked by his own people and he was even beaten.

After several quick attempts with no results, he was so angry that he swung his iron spear and smashed the head of a minion who retreated in front of him.

"Go back and kill anyone who retreats. Take this as an example!" He set a straight face and shouted angrily. However, the soldiers walked around the dead bodies of their companions as if they were unconscious, avoiding Wang Dangren's left and right, and continued to run away.

"Stop, they only have a thousand people!" Wang Dangren shouted in shame and urgency. His cry was quickly drowned out by the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground. The sound of hooves was like thunder, rolling and swallowing up everything in the way.

Wang Dangren raised his head in astonishment and saw the cavalry of the army arranged in a standard wedge shape, ruthlessly harvesting lives like a long spear. On the tip of this long spear, was a completely black horse.

Le Piao is two heads taller than an ordinary war horse, and the general on horseback is like the lower realm of the killing god, awe-inspiring and inviolable.

Wang Dangren was so painful that he was sweating all over when he saw his brothers being chased from behind one by one, being carried away with long spears and swept away with horizontal swords. These 7,000 men were his capital, and although Waihuang Camp was known as an army of soldiers

There are tens of thousands, but most of them are just make-up numbers. Only the seven thousand men around you are the best among the best. Unfortunately, this kind of elite is not as good as a pile of straw targets in front of the enemy, at least the straw targets will not run for their lives.

He suddenly regretted not handing over his brothers to Xu Maogong for training. If he had 3,000 Waggang internal troops under his command at this moment instead of 7,000 foreign minions, the situation would not be so miserable at all.

There is no regret medicine to be sold on the battlefield. In the blink of an eye, Wang Dangren could clearly see the eyes of the enemy general on the opposite side. It was a kind of mocking look, as if he was laughing that he would never be able to get on the stage. "I will fight with you.

!" Wang Dangren completely lost his mind and faced him with his iron spear raised high. Even if he died in battle today, he would die in a dignified manner.

"Protect the leader!" More than a hundred close soldiers were also aroused by Wang Dangren's actions, howling and gathering around the leader. With a dull sound, the enemy and we collided without any tricks.

In an instant, the formation of the gangsters fell apart, and more than thirty corpses flew out upside down.

Li Xu used the tip of the knife to deflect the spear that was coming towards him, and with one stroke, wiped the minions in front of him off his horse. His moves were very simple, almost always fatal with one blow. In the blink of an eye, the three minions fell down.

.The fourth opponent saw that the situation was not good and moved his horse to avoid it, exposing Wang Dangren behind him to Xu Zi's sword.

"I'll fight you!" Wang Dangren roared and came forward, holding the iron spear straight in his hand. Li Xu returned the sword and struck it horizontally. The blade and the spear body intersected, making a loud "Bang!" sound. The two of them

They were shaken twice on horseback, and their weapons were bounced away. In the blink of an eye, the two horses were in stirrups. Wang Dangren used his spear as a club and swept through thousands of troops. Li Xu's sword was like a swimming dragon, sticking close to the horse.

The neck turned out and went straight to Wang Dangren's ribs.

This is a life-for-life trick, and it depends on who moves faster. At such a close distance, long weapons will suffer. Wang Dangren saw that the situation was not good, let go of the weapon that could no longer be withdrawn, and quickly moved his body to the side of the horse.

Wai. Asahi's black knife swept past his thigh, cutting through the armor like cutting grass, leaving a bloody gash half a foot long on his waist.

"Ah--" Wang Dangren screamed fiercely, not daring to look back and letting his horse carry him forward. A county soldier came to stab him with a spear, but he snatched the spear with his hands and counterattacked and fell from the horse. Following closely, he

He stabbed another cavalryman and fled with him and his horse.

Xu Zi's purpose was not to kill people, so he did not use his horse to chase. Instead, he led his brothers to continue the attack, constantly compressing Wang Dangren's remnants. How could the minions who had lost their leader withstand such a collision? The cavalry rushed towards

Well, they retreated like the ebbing tide from where they were, retreating in three directions and two in two. They had abandoned all the camps, and also disrupted the formation of Yongqiu Camp where Li Gongyi was commanding.

The moment he saw Wang Dangren's flag being chopped down for the first time, Li Gongyi had already realized that something was wrong. In order to prevent his position from being disrupted by the defeated troops, he even ordered all his brothers to stop and ally up where they were.

It's a pity that there are not many people who are as calm as him. As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos. The marching commander Shi Fang Yanzao is Li Mi's life and death friend, and Zuo Sima Yang Defang is Li Mi's old friend for many years. When they saw Luo Shixin, they rushed forward in a hurry.

He was so panicked that he issued random orders and frequently urged all troops to move closer to the Chinese army. Li Gongyi was so scared that he had to order his brothers to stand up again. But the moment he just started to move, thousands of remaining soldiers were like sheep.

The crowd was driven over.

The minions, big and small, were in disarray. They didn't know whether to continue to move closer to the Chinese army or to turn around and fight. Li Gongyi wanted to change his strategy again, but it was too late, so he had to watch his position melt away as quickly as snow under the sun.

"General Li, we can't stop the officers and soldiers!" Colonel Xiang Zhao and Li Gongyi belong to the same battalion and rushed to his side and shouted loudly. "Cheng Zhijie said that Li Zhongjian has courage that is unworthy of ten thousand men!"

"Send the order to get out of the way of the enemy troops and retreat to the north!" Li Gongyi understood what Xiang Zhao meant and made an immediate decision. In this case, any action to block the enemy troops would be in vain. There is no need to fight with those who are like wolves and tigers.

In a cavalry battle, Wang Dangren's defeated army alone was enough to overwhelm the brothers under his command. Retreating away from the battlefield could preserve the strength to the greatest extent. If Li Mi died today, Wagangshan would not have to fight again.

Return, so Li Gongyi does not need to care about military law. If Li Mi is lucky enough to survive, a big defeat today is inevitable. No matter how he is investigated, the responsibility cannot be traced to Li Gongyi. Moreover, he has retained the most troops and horses, so he should be commended.

.

With this clever purpose, Yongqiu Camp left a small number of troops to block the retreat of Waihuang Camp, and most of the troops retreated northward. In the blink of an eye, the flanks of the Wagang Army were completely empty. Wang Dangren's troops

The defeated soldiers rushed through the Yongqiu Camp to block the enemy's attack, and headed straight for their own central army. Li Xu led his cavalry in a whirlwind circle, driving the defeated soldiers into the enemy's entanglement with Luo Shixin.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, there were less than two hundred cavalry left around Luo Shixin. They inflicted unexpected heavy losses on the Wagang Army and also lost more than half of themselves. Luo Shixin had been injured in many places, but he still fought fiercely.

"Kill Li Mi!" he shouted while fighting Shan Xiongxin who was chasing him. "Kill Li Mi!" More than two hundred cavalry shouted in unison, waving their long spears and knocking down the surrounding minions one by one.

.

Shan Xiongxin came with the cavalry, but other Wagang Neijun brothers were still blocked by their own people. Cheng Zhijie, the deputy general manager of the Inner Army, responded quickly. After realizing that the situation was not good, he ordered the Inner Army to slow down.

The Chinese army slowly approached, gathering up the broken soldiers of each department, and being comforted by the veterans, they lined up behind the Wagang inner army. Although the orders issued by Cheng Zhijie were always interfered with by the Chinese army, on the whole,

This response was very appropriate. With a new backbone, the broken soldiers no longer ran around like headless chickens, but instead worked hard to form a team again.

"Doing this will arouse suspicion!" Xie Yingdeng looked worriedly in the direction of the Chinese army and gave Cheng Zhijie advice. The foreign army battalions were originally separated from the internal army headed by Xu Maogong. At the critical moment, Cheng Zhijie refused to save him and went back.

You will inevitably be criticized later.

From his point of view, the situation was very critical. After Yongqiu Camp left the battlefield without permission, the cavalry led by Li Xu quickly merged with Luo Shixin's troops. Shan Xiongxin led more than 300 soldiers to deal with one Luo Shixin.

With great difficulty, he was pinched by Li Xu from the flank and immediately collapsed.

"Woo-woo-woo-woo!" Seeing that Shan Xiongxin could not withstand the enemy's attack, Fang Yanzao and others blew the horn for help again. At the same time, the order flag ordering all the troops to join the Chinese army also

Raise high. "Gather and annihilate the enemy forces!" What Fang Yanzao expressed through the flags and horn sounds was obvious. But this naive order had no possibility of being realized.

Not only the Yongqiu camp, but also other foreign battalions were retreating. Some left the battlefield directly, while others avoided the core of the fighting and moved closer to Cheng Zhijie's position. "Only the Wagang internal army can stop Li Zhongjian.

Crazy!" In an instant, almost all the generals reached a unanimous consensus. "The brothers should be handed over to Xu Maogong for retraining!" For more than half a year, Xu Maogong tried to persuade everyone countless times but could not get the point of view accepted by everyone. In this time of chaos,

It was also picked up again by everyone.

"Whoever wants to say whatever they want, the lives of our brothers are no less valuable than Li Mi's!" Cheng Zhijie stared at the battlefield with his eyes fixed on the battlefield, and his answer was a bit angry. This was originally a must-win battle, provided that Li Mi didn't suddenly change his mind.

Showing off his eloquence. Even if Li Mi was injured, the Wagang army should not have been defeated so miserably. If Fang Yanzao's strategy was truly worthy of his talent and reputation, and if Yang Defang's courage was truly worthy of his official position, the two of them would have

We should decisively order the entire army to retreat and temporarily avoid the enemy's attack. Instead of fighting the enemy without any rules like this, resulting in more brothers being trampled to death by our own people than killed by the enemy.

He saw Shan Xiongxin's figure flash in the crowd, and then disappear. An instant later, he saw several cavalrymen hugging Shan Xiongxin, who was covered in blood, retreating quickly. Zhang Liang rushed forward again with Li Mi's confidants.

, trying to slow down the enemy's advance to buy time for Fang Yanzao and others to reorganize their troops. However, the outcome of the battle was not entirely determined by courage. Li Xu's cavalry easily charged the dead soldiers led by Zhang Liang.

After they dispersed, Luo Shixin met Zhang Liang, and Li Xu rode towards Fang Yanzao again.

Zhang Liang's martial arts skills were far inferior to Luo Shixin's. As soon as they met, he was knocked off his horse by Luo Shixin. Luo Shixin tried to take the loser's life, but more than a dozen guards wearing cyan leather armor immediately surrounded him. Several

Individuals worked together to block Luo Shixin's horse's head, while several others picked up Zhang Liang and fled backwards at the critical moment.

Luo Shixin was very angry and stabbed the enemy who was standing in front of his horse. With a wave of his hand, he smashed the corpse into several other enemy soldiers. The green-armored guards who could not escape were knocked down by the corpses of their companions, and they were killed.

When they stood up, Luo Shixin's horse had already reached its end. With a sweep, another dead soldier's armor was cut into two pieces. The skin and muscles wrapped under the armor were all broken, and blood spurted out from the wound.

At the same time, it takes life away from the body.

Someone tried to avenge his companions and rolled towards Luo Shixin's horse's belly while lying on the ground. Luo Shixin gave a loud shout, jumped a few feet away with his horse between his legs, then turned his head and stabbed the enemy who had lost his target cleanly to death. He twitched,

Driving the horse, stabbing at an angle, all these movements were done in one go, provoking another unlucky guy who couldn't avoid it, and then threw the opponent into the air with a big laugh.

This is a devil, and the minions dodge one after another. No matter how many people are gathered, no one is willing to verify Luo Shixin's martial arts. After scattering the enemy troops in front of him, Luo Shixin proudly raised his horse and signaled to the brothers around him to come to him.

He moved closer. Then he pointed his horse forward and spurred his horse to pounce on another group of enemy troops who were helpless.

The cavalry relies on speed. If you give up those enemies that can entangle you for a long time on the battlefield and attack the opponent's weakest point, the effect will be far greater than a head-on collision with the enemy's elite. This is what Li Xu earned with his life on the battlefield.

Through experience and communication, Luo Shixin also mastered the key points skillfully.

The central army of the Wagang Army continued to make a mess, and Fang Yanzao and others no longer cared about Luo Shixin. A bigger crisis was quickly approaching them. After defeating Shan Xiongxin, Li Xu personally led the cavalry,

He drove the defeated soldiers back towards him. Any general who tried to stop him was chopped down by his horse with a black knife.

More than a thousand strong men were driven by Fang Yanzao and formed a human wall to block Xu Zi's horse. They kept flinching, their eyes full of fear. No one could guarantee that they could block the horse, but if this line of defense

If it breaks again, the situation on the battlefield will be out of control.

"Woo-wu-wu-wu!" The horn of the Chinese army sounded again, plaintive and desolate. Suddenly, the sound of the horn suddenly stopped. A sharp arrow flew from the sky, and the flag of the Chinese army fell in response.
