In other words, Xiao Shilian's prey was not the defenders of Laoya Mountain at all, but their supporting army. Before he could recover, the Nanchen soldiers at the front had already crashed into the panicked Northern Zhou array!
The soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, who were originally marching in scattered teams on the road, were undoubtedly caught off guard. More importantly, they did not expect that the enemy would be hiding in the wilderness where they could see the horizon. Therefore, there was no way.
How much vigilance.
Or perhaps Xiao Shilian had no intention of ambushing them at all, he was just looking for a place that could create opportunities for the two sides to encounter each other.
It can be said that when Xiao Shilian's troops appeared in front of this Northern Zhou army, the disparity in strength and fighting spirit made this battle no longer suspense.
"Kill!" Xiao Shilian chopped down a Northern Zhou soldier with a sword. He didn't care about the blood spilled and rushed straight to the next opponent. The guards around him did not hesitate and killed the enemy in front of him as quickly as possible.
Enemies, keep up with Xiao Shilian!
Nan Chen's soldiers in other directions also saw Xiao Shilian's courageous figure moving forward, and the general's flag that had been flying high at the front of the team. They suddenly burst out with shouts and continued to break through the enemy's weak defense line.
Soon these Nanchen soldiers who crashed into the enemy's formation in small groups gathered into streams, and these streams converged into torrents in an instant. Led by Xiao Shilian, they surged and roared through the entire Northern Zhou queue. No one could
block!
The sound of drums was still echoing under the distant hills, and it was unknown how many Nanchen soldiers were pouring out from their hiding places and pounced on the panicked enemies. Because the hiding places were different, some were far away and some were near.
Therefore, when these soldiers rushed out, they no longer cared about looking for their superiors, and directly shouted and rushed towards the enemy who was being slaughtered right there.
If it's too late, this battle will be over!
Because Laoya Mountain is just east of Bajun City, even if they march slowly, two days is enough. In addition, they are going to support rather than attack, so this group of Northern Zhou soldiers and horses did not carry any baggage at all when they left the city.
At that time, all they could rely on were a few large shields.
The shields formed a ring around the captain, who was so frightened that his face turned pale. He had been prepared to leave the army and run away at any time, but it was obvious that Xiao Shilian had no intention of giving him this opportunity.
Not only did Xiao Shilian's generals advance to a place within easy reach, but Nanchen's troops rushing out from all directions would definitely not be able to let go of such a big fish like him.
The battle leader next to the captain was also on the verge of crying. This battle was clearly a killing blow.
Xiao Shilian kicked the shield in front of him - the hands and feet of the Northern Zhou soldier holding the shield were trembling. It would be good if he could hold the shield firmly. And as a hole was revealed in the shaky shield defense line, Nan Nan, who had been waiting for a long time,
The Chen soldiers rushed forward, chopping melons and vegetables, and chopped the Northern Zhou soldiers to the ground.
Xiao Shilian wiped his blade with his sleeve and looked at the corpses lying around with disgust. None of them could be found belonging to the Nanchen soldiers. Apparently, the Northern Zhou Lieutenant who was in charge of commanding this team was covered in blood.
Shivering, he knelt on the ground and looked at himself in fear.
Squatting down, Xiao Shilian asked with great interest: "Are you going to support Lao Yashan?"
The captain just glanced at Xiao Shilian, rolled his eyes, and fainted, which frightened the tensed-up Xiao Shilian guards around him. Xiao Shilian was startled for a moment, smiled unexpectedly, and then twisted.
Turning his head to look at the commander next to him, that guy seemed to be much braver than the captain:
"Then you answer this question."
The battle leader swallowed hard. The bright blades around him reflected the sunlight, making him unable to even look directly at him: "Chief Zhang asked us to support Lao Yashan and monitor the general."
"Puch." Xiao Shilian finally couldn't help laughing, and the surrounding Nanchen soldiers laughed even more when they heard this sentence, but the Northern Zhou prisoners who were kneeling on the ground did not dare to distinguish anything. After all, they
I also know that this is indeed a bit overestimating my capabilities.
"Chief Zhang is fatuous and incompetent. As a general, we can't persuade you, so we can only follow orders." The commander hurriedly explained, kowtowing repeatedly, "Please show mercy, general. I have..."
"I have an old mother on top, and a wife and children on the bottom. That's all right!" Xiao Shilian interrupted him impatiently, "Tell me, what's the situation like in Bajun and Laoyashan? If you speak well, I can consider you.
Put it back and let you see your relatives again. If what you said is wrong, be careful with your head."
The commander did not dare to neglect and hurriedly told everything he knew.
"So there are only more than 500 people in Bajun City?" Xiao Shilian couldn't help but murmured, raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but chuckle. He really wasted his time killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.
A general next to him couldn't help but said curiously: "General, are we going to attack Ba County next?"
"We don't have ladders and rams, so why attack Bajun?" Xiao Shilian smiled. "Bajun only has 500 people, which shows that they really don't have the strength to threaten our flanks and rear. The most important thing next is to defeat Lao Yashan."
Take it down, otherwise we will always be a lone army."
General Zhuang nodded in understanding, while Xiao Shilian geared up: "Let the brothers have a good rest, let's prepare for another big fight!"
————————————————-
Arrows whizzed past his head. Li Ping shouted to his soldiers while standing in front of Li Xinchen. He nervously raised his shield, fearing that any arrow without an eye would rush directly into Li Xinchen's chest.
There are never a few famous generals injured by stray arrows on the battlefield.
"Don't be so nervous. Don't look at where the arrows above your head are flying." Li Xingchen patted Li Ping on the shoulder in a funny way.
The enemy's arrows were mainly concentrated on the ship in front. Therefore, although the ship Li Xingchen was on, which was the flagship of the entire fleet, was already within the range of the enemy's arrows, it was not favored.
For the enemy, the building ship has already rushed in front of them, even if there is a big prey behind it, it is of no use. What's more, it is still unclear who is the prey and who is the hunter now.
"General, battle report." Cao Zhong quickly ran up to Feilu, stretched out his hand and handed the battle report to Li Xingchen.
Li Xingchen was startled for a moment. The news from Laoya Mountain was that the two sides had been communicating with each other as scouts, so there was no need for a battle report. Of course, this battle report could only be Xiao Shilian's.
After prying open the paint, Li Xingchen showed a smile after just glancing at the contents of the letter: "Xiao Boqing's movements are really fast. Is he so anxious that he wants to swallow up the entire Laoya Mountain enemy before we arrive?"
