Chen Cheng sneered, pointed to the west and said: "The way to survive is over there! The sea of suffering is boundless, and turning back is the end. If you turn back now, it's still too late. I count to three, if you turn back and continue fighting, then forget about it. If not.
..."
"So what?"
Chen Cheng said calmly: "Otherwise, I will kill you all for disobeying military orders!"
As soon as he said this, dozens of people nearby were forced by his momentum and couldn't help but take a step back. The team leader's back was suddenly wet with cold sweat. He was shocked and angry and said: "Chen Shijun, you can't either
It’s unreasonable! We have been fighting hard for so long, it’s time for us to go down and have a rest!”
"Normally I can reason with you, but now we are at war!" Chen Cheng began to read, "One!"
Hundreds of people were forced by Chen Cheng and started uproaring. Someone shouted loudly: "Don't be afraid, there are so many of us, can he still kill us all?"
Chen Cheng glanced at the crowd and continued: "Two!"
The voices in the crowd became louder, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! We are not alone. We have General Han's 100,000 troops behind us. He doesn't dare to kill us! He doesn't dare!"
"three!"
Chen Cheng waved his hand, and an exaggerated and gorgeous Fang Tian painted halberd appeared in his hand. The halberd drew an arc in the air and pointed forward, "Black Armored Army, step forward!"
Zhang Heng had long been impatient with waiting. Hearing this, he shouted: "Kill them all!"
The black armored troops using swords and shields retreated, and those holding spears rushed forward. The dense spears stabbed them, and blood immediately spattered out. "Ah!" screams came from the crowd, and some people did not dare.
He shouted with confidence, "How dare you...how dare you do such a thing...Ah!"
The spearmen who fought in formation were very powerful in close combat and quickly stabbed more than a hundred people to death. The leader who had talked to Chen Cheng before was also a warrior in the army. He was holding a spear to block left and right, but how could he do it?
After blocking the oncoming gun head, several more spears came from the side.
Even though the Black Armored Army does not often train this kind of spear formation, it is not as skillful in using it as in the trap formation. However, there is no formation of the defeated troops, and they have been fighting for a long time, and they are mentally and physically exhausted, which is even more unbearable.
Once there's a fight, everything goes sideways.
The leader of the team was very skilled in martial arts. He rushed left and right, swinging his spear like a windmill, but he was still being killed and retreated. "Bang", he raised the spear and knocked away a spear that was poking at him.
But there was a burst of severe pain. He screamed, and all the strength in his body suddenly disappeared. As he screamed, a spear came towards him and hit him in the face. The thrust of the spear was so fierce that it not only penetrated
He also stabbed his head out from behind the iron helmet.
The one-sided killing lasted not long. After two to three hundred people were killed, the defeated soldiers lost their consciousness of resistance, threw away their weapons, and shouted: "Surrender, surrender, don't kill anymore."
Got it!"
Many people cried loudly, "I surrendered, please don't kill me again!"
In addition to this group of people, there were hundreds of people who retreated from the front, but they did not retreat so far. Instead, they watched the development of the situation fifty steps away. If the situation went bad, they could be said to have retreated.
They came down to form a team and immediately went back to fight. If the people in front ran away, it wouldn't be too late for them to take advantage of the situation and catch up.
When they saw that the black-armored army really started killing people, the faces of the hundreds of people behind them turned green. They looked at each other, then turned back and ran towards the Han army's position in silence. Mencius once said: "With fifty
If you laugh a hundred steps at a time, what will happen?"
It means that during the war, some people fled a hundred steps and stopped, and some people fled fifty steps and stopped. Those who fled fifty steps actually laughed at those who fled a hundred steps. This is
Is it possible?
However, the world has always been in a state of chaos. A person who has escaped fifty steps can laugh at a person who has escaped a hundred steps. At this time, there is also a difference. A person who has escaped a hundred steps will be mocked.
Even if he is cut down, a person who has escaped fifty steps can still live temporarily. Therefore, although Mencius is a sage and a sub-sage, some words can only be heard.
Half of the four to five hundred defeated soldiers were killed, and the remaining people threw away their weapons and surrendered. The black-armored army surrounded them, pointing their sharp spears at the crowd kneeling on the ground. Seeing this scene, Song Jian and Cheng
Yin and others looked at each other, with mixed feelings in their hearts. Although they were killing Han Sui and Li Xiangru's people, and although this kind of thing was not done before, they still felt a little sad that the rabbit died and the fox died.
Zhang Heng turned around and asked loudly: "Lord? How should we deal with these people?"
Chen Cheng trotted over on his horse. He looked at the defeated soldiers who were covered in blood and looked sad and angry. He felt a little unbearable, but the expression on his face became more and more indifferent. "Let them stand up and line up in three lines."
Zhang Heng didn't know why, but he still followed the order. The man who was kneeling on the ground stood up, with a look of fear and prayer in his eyes. After they lined up, Chen Cheng said coldly: "From the first one
At the beginning, one out of every ten people will be picked out and killed, and the remaining people will be used as death squads, and they will be sent to charge into the formation later."
The black armored army rushed forward and roughly pulled out the selected people, more than twenty in total. These people were pushed to the ground by two soldiers of the Heijia family, and behind them stood a armored soldier holding a big axe.
"Click", "click", the heads rolled to the ground one by one. The hearts of Song Jian and others watching on the side could not help but speed up a bit. Many of them had once laughed at Chen Cheng for being a woman.
They thought that although he had military power, he was not a qualified leader. But now that they saw Chen Cheng killing so many people with an indifferent expression, the princes of Xiliang were both respectful and afraid.
The princes in Liangzhou were very aggressive and fighting among themselves, and there were almost no good people. Chen Cheng now let go of the massacre, which actually convinced them. The princes stood aside, looking at Chen Cheng on horseback in awe, waiting to see what he would do next
manage.
After more than twenty heads fell to the ground, Chen Cheng drove his war horse to the remaining two hundred people. He did not speak at first, but rode his horse back and forth in front of the crowd several times, and then roared loudly, "
Listen up, this is the first time, so I only killed 10%. Now pick up your weapons and charge to the west. Before I defeat the enemy, let me see you again and leave no one behind!"
The defeated soldiers were silent, looking at him in fear, not daring to make any sound.
Chen Cheng rushed up on horseback, swung his horsewhip and knocked one of them down, "What are you doing standing still? Come to the front line! Do you apes still want to live a long life?"
Under the watchful eyes of the black-armored troops on the side, the defeated soldiers picked up their weapons and then howled and rushed towards the Han army's position.
The battle became more and more fierce, and people fell every moment. On both sides of the fence, corpses piled up, and blood gathered into a pool of blood, flowing into the Wei River on the side. Under the scorching sun, the injured soldiers fell to the ground,
Screaming in despair. Although humans are the best among all things, they are now biting each other like wild boars in a quagmire.
The sun gradually turned westward, and the second wave of Xiliang troops gradually became tired after charging for a while. As casualties increased and their physical strength lost, their morale, organization, and combat effectiveness continued to decline.
decline.
On Huangbei Mountain, under the banner of "King", a military commander wearing a helmet looked at the fierce battle at the bottom of the mountain with a very solemn expression. There was a ferocious scar on this man's face, which added a bit of ferocious aura.
Left behind during the battle with the Yellow Turban Army.
"How long have the Xiliang thieves been fighting this time?"
General Bian Shang replied: "It's been more than half an hour."
Wang Dang asked again: "How many casualties did the enemy have and how many casualties did our army have?"
"Our army suffered more than 400 casualties, and the enemy's casualties were no less than 1,000!"
Wang Dang was silent for a while and then ordered: "Send two more troops forward, and then send a team of crossbowmen to replace the archers in front!"
Those Han army crossbowmen have fired for forty or fifty rounds, and the arrows have begun to become soft. It's not that they are unwilling to work hard, but now they are going deep alone. If they don't do it well, the whole army will be annihilated, so they are all up and down.
They gritted their teeth and fought hard with the Xiliang thieves. However, their manpower was sometimes exhausted. They had been fighting for a long time before, and they continued to shoot for more than half an hour this time. Their arms were sore and weak. They wanted to kill the enemy, but they were unable to string the bow again.
Laman.
Hundreds of crossbowmen quickly stepped forward to replace their exhausted comrades. With the addition of fresh troops, the Han army's arrows became stronger again. The first fence that was re-erected has been knocked down, and the west
The Liang army was cheering and charging forward, but they were hit by strong bows and crossbows from the flanks. Many people were hit by several arrows, or even a dozen arrows, and then fell down screaming.
After receiving such a blow, the morale of the Xiliang Army suddenly plummeted. The Han Army infantry recovered and drove the Xiliang Army back. The second wave of Xiliang Army's soldiers had also suffered nearly half casualties and were unable to continue fighting.
He turned his head, dragged his weapon backwards, and left his back to the Han army. He crossed the fence and ditch and ran towards the rear amid the falling arrows.
Before he could reach the flag, another hail of arrows fell, killing dozens of people in the lead. Zhang Heng held up his sword and shouted loudly: "Those who retreat will die!"
The more than 20 defeated soldiers who had been beheaded before were all decapitated, and their heads were stuck on spears. The defeated Xiliang army looked at the dozens of grinning heads, and their whole bodies were filled with coldness.
It stopped immediately.
Huang Hai came out with seven or eight arrows stuck in his body. He was a general under Cheng Yi and wore the best armor, so he was able to retreat with his men after suffering so many arrows.
He saw Cheng Yi and shouted: "General Cheng, we have tried our best!"
Cheng Yi looked at Chen Cheng, who had a straight face, and sighed, but said nothing.
Huang Hai reached out and pulled out an arrow from his body. Regardless of the blood spurting out, he screamed loudly: "We have tried our best!"
Cheng Yi couldn't bear it, so he rode to Chen Cheng's side and whispered: "Your Majesty, they really tried their best."
After arriving in Liangzhou in the sixth year of Zhongping, Cheng Yi gave Chen Cheng a lot of help and was the first to recommend him as the shepherd of Liangzhou. Therefore, Chen Cheng always treated Cheng Yi very differently. If it were anyone else, Chen Cheng would have been stern.
He scolded him with a straight face, but since it was Cheng Yi who was talking, it was naturally different.
He whispered: "I know, but we are at war now. General Cheng, don't blame me!"
Cheng Yi looked at Song Jian again. The two thousand people in this wave were his and Song Jian's subordinates. Half of the troops who retreated were soldiers under Song Jian's command. However, Song Jian just sneered at Cheng Yi.
There were no words. When he killed Huang Yan, he killed all the Huang family members, including Huang Yan's generals and his family members.
It’s just a thousand people, Song Jian thought with some disdain: Cheng Yi also has some mothers-in-law!
