However, Xiao Shilue did not intend to give him another chance, and then took three steps forward and two steps at a time, and cut off this guy's head with a sharp horizontal knife.
His body and hands were covered in blood. He gasped for air and turned back to look at Li Jing who was holding a spear. It was Li Jing who stabbed the enemy's horse in the stomach just now.
Li Jing looked at Xiao Shilue. The young man seemed to be saying, "Xiao Shilue is not a coward!"
Sensing something, Li Jing walked over and used his sword to open the skirt of the Northern Zhou cavalry, revealing the color of the general's armor underneath. He couldn't help but smile and looked at Xiao Shilue.
Xiao Shi was slightly startled. It turned out to be a big fish who put on soldier's clothes and wanted to run away?
Li Jing reached out and pulled off the token from the waist of the Northern Zhou general, and threw it directly to Xiao Shilue. The credit for this was mainly attributed to him.
Xiao Shilue took the token and heard Li Jing's voice.
"Kill the enemy!" Li Jing raised his spear.
Xiao Shilue responded and waved his horizontal sword, and the two of them broke into the depths of the Northern Zhou cavalry team side by side.
At this time, the battle situation has become increasingly clear. The spearmen of the Han army lined up in a row with their spears pointed out, forcing the Northern Zhou cavalry to retreat, while the crossbowmen were already close to the front, almost standing under the horses and facing the enemy's chest.
Archery.
In such a chaotic situation, it is better not to fire the musket, otherwise it is very likely to hit one of your own, so the crossbow is just in effect.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!" The soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty were no longer interested in fighting.
But retreating is not so easy!
The Han army's Modao team also appeared at the northernmost entrance and encircled it southward.
Encircling three and missing one was to force the enemy to retreat, but now Li Ping didn't need the Northern Zhou soldiers to retreat, he wanted the heads of all the enemy cavalry here!
"Advance!" The Han soldiers shouted a slogan that was completely opposite to that of the Northern Zhou cavalry.
The Mo Dao team and the heavy armored soldiers acted as the vanguard, and countless Han troops, just like Li Jing and Xiao Shilue, ran into them.
In just one stick of incense, the Northern Zhou cavalry was overwhelmed.
At this time, further north, Cheng Feng had led the Yu Lin Cavalry through the Northern Zhou infantry formation, and the entire army formation was in chaos. Cheng Feng calmly rode his horse and led the Yu Lin Cavalry in a circle.
Once, he went around to the northwest side of the Northern Zhou army's formation, and threw another barrage of arrows at the Northern Zhou infantry, forcing the enemy to retreat to the southeast.
To the east is rolling clear water, and to the south is the Han army that has calmly reorganized its troops after annihilating the Northern Zhou cavalry. The fate of these Northern Zhou infantry has also been decided.
"Send the order, all units move forward to attack!" Of course Li Ping would not let go of the good opportunity that Cheng Feng almost gave to himself.
This time, the left and right wings did not move forward, but defended the central army. The Han army formed a neat queue and pressed directly towards the enemy's retreat direction.
An overwhelming force, but nothing more than that.
"Advance!" Cheng Feng issued the same order after a short period of repair.
He would not give all the credit to Li Ping. Although Yu Linqi could not take such a big credit on his own, he was not generous enough to give everything to Li Ping. This meat would be a big bite for Li Ping.
, Yu Linqi also had to take a small bite, but the soup couldn't satisfy Cheng Feng's appetite.
The Yulin Cavalry accelerated again, smoke billowed, and the cavalry was like a sharp sword thrust straight into the deepest part of the enemy's formation, stirring up the enemy's internal organs and making them frightened!
"Are these two guys suffocated?"
This was what Chunyucen and Lu Shixiong thought after seeing the battle situation on the north side.
It was clear that the Northern Zhou army was outflanking and attacking, but Li Ping and Cheng Feng pressed them forward. Who was the attacking party? These two guys had been defending the capital for so many years and had hardly been on the battlefield. This time they wanted to take credit.
Crazy?
However, this also made Chunyucen and Lu Shixiong breathe a sigh of relief. Firstly, the pressure from the north was relieved, and they could concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front of them. Secondly, Li Ping and others were fighting smoothly, which undoubtedly told them that the enemy did not
It is so powerful as imagined. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the Imperial Guards and Yulin Cavalry are, they would not be able to overwhelm the enemy so quickly. There must be more than just one or two differences between the two sides. There must be differences in the entire army.
There is a huge gap in quality.
Li Ping's command was from the Imperial Guard, as were those from Chun Yucen and Lu Shixiong.
Moreover, the two people's desire for credit is not inferior to that of Li Ping and Cheng Feng.
Chun Yucen was originally assigned to the command of Xiao Shilian in Guanzhong. The Han army in Guanzhong fired the first shot of the entire Northern Expedition, and wiped out the main force of Sima Xiaoshi. He suppressed the Tongguan defenders and fought. It was definitely a good start, but Chun Yucen
I was in Jiankang Mansion, but I could only watch the battle reports coming from the north, and I was really envious.
As for Lu Shixiong, his brother Lu Shizhen made a lot of contributions in the Han Dynasty's Southern Expedition, and he was very envious of it. What's more, his father was also fighting in Guanzhong at this time, and both his father and son were fighting hard. If he was too late
How can you hold your head high if you have no achievements yet?
Therefore, Chunyucen and Lu Shixiong were extremely excited when they looked at the enemy crossing the clear water in front of them.
The battle achievements are delivered to your door!
"Fire arrows!" Two people, one south and one north, gave the order almost at the same time.
Arrows were like rain, covering the shore of Qingshui.
The sound of drums echoed, and the Han soldiers marched towards the Qingshui shore with neat steps.
Strike halfway across, now is the time.
The clear water is not very deep. When Wu Mingche retreated from the Qingjiang estuary, he had to use bamboo rafts to transport troops and horses because the water was relatively shallow. Originally, there were pontoons connecting the Zhou camps on the east and west banks of the clear water, but last night
There was chaos. The Zhou people were afraid that the Han army would come directly along the pontoon bridge, and in order to be able to use fire ships to attack the Han navy fleet, they simply demolished the pontoon bridge.
Judging from the current situation, it was not a wrong decision for the Zhou people to demolish the pontoon bridge. Otherwise, after Li Xingchen led his army to the west bank in the morning, he might have rushed directly from the pontoon bridge. How could he have waited for the Zhou people to counterattack?
Because there was no pontoon bridge, the Northern Zhou army also used bamboo rafts to cross the river. Naturally, there was no protection on the bamboo rafts. Arrows swept over them, and the Zhou troops on the bamboo rafts almost fell down row by row.
Soon, the first few bamboo rafts were spinning empty on the water. Only corpses were left on the bamboo rafts, and the blood dyed the river red.
However, the Northern Zhou army must have received a death order, batches of bamboo rafts were still being launched into the water, and even the soldiers who knew how to swim simply waded in this direction by themselves. The clear water was only no deeper than the waist, but the current was fast.
Some, of course, are nothing to people who know how to swim.
The crossbowmen of the Northern Zhou Dynasty also gathered on the bamboo rafts to release arrows, but compared with the "rain of arrows" of the Han army, their arrows seemed quite weak.
"Boom!" A naval artillery shell landed on the clear water, immediately setting off a torrential water column.
The noise on the battlefield dissipated in an instant.
