Wu Han knew his mission very well. He did not need to defeat the enemy in a head-on confrontation, which was unlikely. He only needed to withstand the enemy's offensive and create opportunities for his own soldiers on both wings to attack.
Zhao Kuan and Guo Ming were both generals under Wu Han, and they were both brave and skilled generals. Currently, the 10,000 soldiers at the forefront were led by Zhao Kuan.
The battle had just begun, and the casualties of Zhao Kuan's army began to rise sharply. Zheng Rui and Hou Ping, two army commanders, both sent people to ask Zhao Kuan for help. The casualties of their own brothers were too great, and they might not be able to withstand it.
Zhao Kuan looked at the two soldiers who came to report the news and said in a deep voice: "You two go back and tell Zheng Rui and Hou Ping that all the soldiers are dead, including the captain, all the captains are dead, and all the captains are dead."
Come on, all the military princes are dead, so they will go into battle personally for me!"
The two soldiers shrank their necks in fright, said nothing, and hurriedly responded, running back to their formation to convey Zhao Kuan's order to Zheng Rui and Hou Ping.
After hearing Zhao Kuan's order, the two army commanders Zheng Rui and Hou Ping went into battle personally and led their men to resist the Red Eyebrow Army's offensive with all their might.
The pressure on the Han army was great, and the pressure on the Red Eyebrow Army on the opposite side was not great. The soldiers in the front were unable to make any progress, but suffered heavy losses. Fang An was so worried that beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
He sent out five generals at one go and asked them to go to the front and lead the brothers in front to break through the enemy's defense line no matter what.
These five generals took orders one after another, and all five of them went to the front, took over various ministries, and took the lead in launching a fierce attack on the Han army on the opposite side.
What Zheng Rui faced was a unit commanded by Cai Xun, the general of the Red Eyebrow Army. Cai Xun, holding a long sword and leading more than a hundred elite Red Eyebrow Army soldiers, rushed their horses to fight out of their own camp and arrived at the Han Army.
In front of the camp, a knife was thrust forward.
A loud bang was heard in the helix of the ear, and the sharp edge of the long knife pierced the shield, causing the Han soldiers behind the shield to lean back and sit on the ground.
Before he could get up, Cai Xun urged his horse forward, raised his sword, and with a click, chopped off the head of the Han soldier to the ground.
The Han soldiers behind wanted to step forward to fill their positions. Cai Xundi rushed into the Han army's camp, brandished his long sword, and frantically slashed the surrounding Han soldiers.
Seeing this, Zheng Rui ran over on foot. He rushed out from the side of Cai Xun without any speed, and he directly bumped into him.
Bang! Zheng Rui's shoulder hit the belly of the war horse hard. The force of the impact was so great that the horse took two steps sideways and then couldn't stand. Both man and horse fell to the ground. Zheng Rui gasped.
With a rude mouth, he was about to fight Cai Xun who fell to the ground, when more than a dozen red-browed soldiers rushed up from the side.
Zheng Rui held a sword in one hand and a spear in the other, and fought with the Red Eyebrow Army. Cai Xun, who fell off his horse, lay on the ground and recovered after a while. When he regained his consciousness, the surroundings happened to be
A circle of Han soldiers holding spears swarmed towards him.
Cai Xun roared loudly, held the sword in one hand, and made a sharp move. The long sword drew a circle around him, and a circle of Han soldiers who were charging forward were swept by the blade. People either screamed and staggered back, or
He fell to the ground and convulsed on the spot.
Taking this opportunity, Cai Xun got up from the ground, looked up, and saw Zheng Rui fighting with his own soldiers. Without thinking, he rushed over with a long knife. Before the people arrived, the knife came first.
The long knife made a harsh sound as it struck Zheng Rui's head viciously.
Zheng Rui heard that the evil wind was not good, and he hurriedly raised his sword to parry.
Bang! Cai Xun's powerful and heavy sword directly chopped off Zheng Rui's sword, and the blade scratched hard on the armor plate on his chest. Sha! A long scratch appeared on the armor plate instantly, and blood flowed down.
There were scratches and gurgling water flowed out.
Zheng Rui's eyes were so painful that he almost fainted. He gritted his teeth, endured the pain, picked up his spear, and stabbed Cai Xun repeatedly in the body.
He was able to be pushed to the front by Wu Han, and his martial arts skills were not weak, but he was already injured at this time, and Cai Xun was also the number one general in the Red Eyebrow Army.
Cai Xun swung his sword to parry Zheng Rui's quick attack, deflecting all four of his attacks at once. Then he struck back with his sword and slashed Zheng Rui's head.
Zheng Rui hurriedly lowered his head to dodge. Click! The tassel of his helmet was cut off by Cai Xun's knife. Zheng Rui roared angrily and attacked Cai Xun again with his spear.
Cai Xun snorted coldly, and first let go of the sharp edge of the spear. Before Zheng Rui could retract the spear, he grabbed the spear shaft and raised the long knife with his other hand, intending to slash at Zheng Rui's body.
What he didn't expect was that Zheng Rui dropped his spear unexpectedly and rushed towards him with his bare hands.
Cai Xun was unprepared and was hit in the face by Zheng Rui who rushed towards him. This headbutt made Cai Xun scream and stagger back.
Looking at his face, there was blood coming from his mouth and nose, and the bridge of his nose seemed to have been broken.
Seeing this, Zheng Rui was overjoyed and continued to pounce forward, hitting the opponent's face with his headbutt. Unexpectedly, Cai Xun, who couldn't open his eyes, roared fiercely and swung his knife forward.
A cold light flashed in front of Zheng Rui's belly.
Zheng Rui's body suddenly stiffened. He lowered his head and saw that the armor in his lower abdomen was torn open. Then, blood flowed out. After a short time, even the white intestines flowed out.
His body shook a few times, and he fell to the ground. His body twitched a few times, and he died on the spot. Cai Xun wiped away his tears and looked fiercely at Zheng Rui, who was lying on the ground.
The nose was hit hard and the eyes shed tears. This is completely a physiological reaction.
Cai Xun brutally poisoned Zheng Rui, stepped forward, raised his knife high, and threatened to chop off Zheng Rui's head. At this moment, someone in the Han army suddenly fired a crossbow arrow,
It was impartial and hit Cai Xun right in the neck.
The crossbow arrow entered from the left side of his neck, and the arrow exited from the right side of his neck, directly piercing his neck.
The sword that Cai Xun held high could not be cut down for a long time. Finally, he fell straight forward, and his body happened to be pressed against Zheng Rui's body.
This is just a corner of the entire battle between the two sides. In such a large-scale battle scene, enemy troops are everywhere, and cold arrows are everywhere. I am still alive at this moment, but no one can guarantee that I can survive until the next moment.
.
The five army commanders under Zhao Kuan fought for less than half an hour, and Zheng Rui and three other army commanders were already killed in the battle.
Of the three divisions, with a total of 6,000 men, few managed to escape the battlefield alive.
The army commanded by Zhao Kuan suffered heavy casualties. Three of the five divisions were wiped out. The remaining two divisions also suffered heavy casualties and were supported by the remaining two army commanders.
Similarly, the casualties suffered by the Red Eyebrow Army were not small. All five generals sent by Feng'an were killed in battle, and none of them returned alive.
Feng'an was furious and sent his most powerful general, Hu Xie, along with 2,000 of his most elite soldiers to form a death squad and launch a fierce attack on the Han army on the opposite side.
Hu Xie and his two thousand soldiers all took off their armor and uniforms and went into battle shirtless.
Holding Huanshou swords in their hands, like tigers emerging from the mountains, they rushed out of the Red Eyebrow Army camp and charged towards the Han Army camp opposite.
The Red Eyebrow Army soldiers who were the first to rush up were stabbed into a hornet's nest by the spears behind the shield formation. The Red Eyebrow Army soldiers behind stepped on the corpses of their companions and jumped and climbed like crazy towards the Han Army Shield Formation.
.
From time to time, people were pierced by spears and died miserably in the shield formation, but this failed to stop the death squads of the Red Eyebrow Army.
Soon, someone broke through the Han army's shield formation, jumped into the crowd behind the shield formation, stared with blood-red eyes, waved the Huanshou knife in his hand, and chopped down all the living people around who could still stand.
Under the impact of two thousand red-browed death squads, Zhao Kuan's army could not withstand it. Just when the Han army was being charged into chaos, Guo Ming's army stepped forward. The arrival of these ten thousand fresh troops made all Zhao Kuan's soldiers breathe a sigh of relief.
Guo Ming didn't look for anyone else and went straight to Hu Xie. Hu Xie was the number one warrior under Feng An, and among the entire Red Eyebrow Army, he was ranked among the top three in terms of bravery.
He did not ride a horse and went into battle on foot. From his shirtless upper body, you can see the bulging muscles. He held two hammers and swung them around. The Han soldiers around him would die if they came into contact with him. He was among the Han soldiers.
, like entering a deserted place.
Guo Ming held a long halberd and rode up to Hu Xie. He slashed his halberd diagonally towards Hu Xie's shoulder.
Hu Xie raised his two hammers and parried upwards. BANG! The halberd hit the head of the hammer firmly, sparks burst out, and the halberd was shaken so high that it bounced high into the air.
Guo Ming felt that his hands were sore and numb, and the flesh seemed to be torn apart. Hu Xie glared at Guo Ming with fierce eyes, and swept his hammers across, hitting Guo Ming on the horse with one hammer and another with one hammer.
Head towards the horse.
He secretly said something powerful! Guo Ming gritted his teeth and used his halberd to resist Hu Xie's double hammers. Dang, Dang! With two loud noises, Guo Ming's body sitting on the horse tilted to the side and almost fell down.
, even the war horse was affected by the impact and took a few steps sideways.
Hu Xie was unyielding. His burly figure jumped into the air, aimed at Guo Ming's head, and smashed it down with a hammer.
At this time, Guo Ming had just stabilized his horse. When he saw the opponent's menacing blow, it was already too late to dodge.
He could only bite the bullet, raise the halberd in his hand, and catch the opponent's heavy blow upwards. At this moment, a cold arrow suddenly flew over and hit Hu Xie in the air.
Hu Xie reacted very quickly. The hammer he had knocked down suddenly swung sideways, and the arrow that flew diagonally was bounced away. Similarly, his powerful and heavy hammer failed to hit it.
After landing, Hu Xie turned around and saw that the person who originally shot the arrow was Zhao Kuan.
Hu Xie was so angry that he roared, waved his arm, and threw a hammer directly, hitting Zhao Kuan hard.
Zhao Kuan was so frightened that his hair stood on end and he ducked to the side. He dodged Hu Xie's flying hammer, but he also fell off his horse.
Ignoring Guo Ming, Hu Xie threw off his long legs and walked straight towards Zhao Kuan who had landed on the ground.
Zhao Kuan hurriedly threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, climbed up from the ground, and drew out the sword from his ribs. Before Hu Xie could rush to Zhao Kuan, Guo Ming rode up from behind Hu Xie and stabbed him with a halberd.
His back thoughts.
"Get the hell out of here!" Hu Xie didn't even look back and swung the hammer backward with one hand.
Dang! Whoosh!
The hammer head hit the halberd face, and the halberd in Guo Ming's hand flew away. Looking at his palms again, the two tiger's mouths were split open by the shock, and blood immediately flowed out. Hu Xie turned sideways, letting Guo Ji
The head of the running horse, when the war horse was about to run past him, he raised his arm and directly hugged the war horse's neck. He put his hand around the war horse's neck and pulled it down hard, and pushed his shoulders up hard, and then
He roared, and Hu Xie was thrown over his shoulder by the horse.
A war horse itself weighs several hundred kilograms, and with Guo Ming on the horse's back, the total weight is not much less than a thousand kilograms. Hu Xie's over-the-shoulder throw involving both man and horse was shocking.
Guo Ming on horseback hit the ground first, and his head hit the ground first. Immediately afterwards, the horse weighing hundreds of kilograms hit him hard, which directly broke Guo Ming's spine and killed him on the spot.
