"You should go back!" The leader of the Extreme Demon Sect said to the master of the Lingjiu Palace: "Have you seen the battlefield below? The defeat of the alliance of the two major families you support has been determined."
The battlefield has entered a fierce stage. The Xiliang Army and the Allied Forces are fighting fiercely. There is no obvious formation visible. The soldiers on both sides are fighting in chaos.
Every moment a large number of soldiers fell, and at the same time more soldiers rushed into the enemy's formation.
The afterglow of the sun shone on this battlefield. They had been fighting all day long. Judging from the appearance of this battlefield, they probably would not stop at night.
Li Xiang had already rushed hundreds of miles away with his cavalry. The cavalry on both sides also suffered heavy losses. After all, the cavalry on both sides were constantly colliding with each other.
The Lord of the Lingjiu Palace looked at the Pang Family Army led by Marshal Pang Family. What disappointed her was that the Pang Family Army led by Marshal Pang Family did not break through and the Xiliang Army sniped.
The heavy infantry still stood in front of the Pang family's cavalry. They were like steel pillars, standing erect.
Lying on the ground in front of the heavy cavalry square formation were the corpses of Pang's cavalry. The eyes of these cavalry soldiers were wide open and full of disbelief.
They never thought that their heavy cavalry would not be able to break through the square formation in front of them.
As the heavy cavalry of the Pang family, their mission is to break through. The phalanx of the Xiliang Army opened a huge hole for the army at the rear, allowing the army to drive straight in, breaking through the Xiliang Army's sniper attack and helping the Ma Family Army on the other side.
But what they couldn't believe was that their heavy cavalry charge could not break through the square formation in front of them. The enemy soldiers were wearing heavy armor and holding strange weapons.
When their heavy cavalry rushed in front of these soldiers holding strange weapons, these soldiers waved the very long swords in their hands. When the swords fell, they were unconscious.
The Master of the Vulture Palace in the sky felt a burst of creepy sword light coming from below, and even she in the sky couldn't help but cast her gaze downwards.
Under the sun, the Mo Dao held by the Mo Dao wielders shone with cold light. When they waved it, thousands of people waved it at the same time. The heavy cavalry who rushed in front of the square formation had little resistance and were split into two by these soldiers holding giant swords.
Half.
The thick armor on their bodies looked like it was made of paper and was easily broken into pieces by these broadswords. The war horses and the soldiers on the war horses were even split in half by the broadswords.
The cruel side in front of them made the cavalry behind them afraid to move forward. The horses under them had covered their eyes with black cloth. The horses could not see the bursts of cold light in front, but the soldiers on the horses could.
Seeing the tragic death of so many comrades in front, these heavy infantrymen did not dare to move forward, because two or three thousand people were already trapped in the front, and two or three thousand people could not break through even half a point.
Those who caught up behind them were, at best, just adding fuel to the fire and adding some military exploits to the soldiers of the Xiliang Army.
The heavy cavalry didn't dare to move forward, and the light cavalry even less dared. The commander-in-chief of the Pang family was also dumbfounded. It was the first time he saw this kind of troops and the first time he saw such a fierce phalanx.
The heavy cavalry could not break through the huge infantry square in front of him. He finally saw it clearly and understood why the Xiliang army deployed heavy troops on the left and right sides as well as various things to block the cavalry, such as horse traps and horse traps.
The other party just wants their cavalry to march from the central army, and in the position of the central army, the other party has arranged this strange cavalry to let them plunge in headfirst.
It turns out that the other party was already prepared!
If the cavalry cannot break in, then let the infantry charge in from both sides first. They will not be able to deal with the heavy infantry on the frontal battlefield for the time being.
Those strange weapons can not only be wielded against cavalry, but also do more damage to infantry. He does not want his light infantry to die on the side of the heavy infantry of the Xiliang Army.
After trying several attacks, he knew that the cavalry could not break through the formation in front of him, so he could only send the light cavalry out from both sides to the main battlefield.
It is a bit unrealistic to let the heavy cavalry go around. The battlefield is too big. If you want to go around, the distance is nearly a hundred miles. The heavy armor on the heavy cavalry is already too heavy for the war horses to bear. It can even support a charge for a short distance.
very good.
It is unrealistic for heavy cavalry to launch long-distance raids or support, unless these cavalrymen are born with Xiliang war horses. Currently, there are only a few types of heavy cavalry that can support such long-distance operations.
And neither of their two big families have that kind of horse!
The cavalry cannot break through, so they can only let the infantry attack from both sides to see if they can kill them from both sides!
The afterglow of the sun has gone down, but the two great masters in the sky are still floating, and they are unable to participate in the battle below!
But they can watch this relatively large-scale war in recent years from high altitude. The war in the north is much larger than here, but the front there is much wider than here.
In terms of the level of fighting on the battlefield, it was more intense here. Soldiers from both sides were in close contact. For half a day, the smell of blood spread throughout the battlefield.
This was an extremely brutal war, with soldiers from both sides fighting for their missions.
The Xiliang army knew very well that after defeating this army, they could return to the warmer camps in the northwest, and they would not have to continue fighting on the land of Liangzhou in the coming year.
The soldiers on the coalition side are protecting their home. Their home is in Liangzhou. If the Xiliang army is allowed to occupy it, they will lose their home.
Precisely because they want to protect their homeland, the fighting spirit of the coalition soldiers is no better than that of the Xiliang soldiers.
Xiliang soldiers always maintain high morale, while coalition soldiers have to fight tooth and nail because they want to protect their homeland.
They knew that after they joined the coalition, if the land of Liangzhou was occupied by the Xiliang army, their fate would be miserable.
Not only will their fate be tragic, but their families will also be implicated by them. After all, it is because of their existence that the Xiliang army has not captured Liangzhou for so long.
Even if they escape from the army, they will be reported by their neighbors. After all, after they become soldiers, they become affiliated with the two major families in Liangzhou.
In the land of Liangzhou, apart from the affiliates of the three major families, they were the targets of their oppression. In the past, the common people dared not speak out against them because of their status.
After they lose that layer of identity that can protect themselves and their families, those people will definitely pay back double the amount. It would be fine if they died in the battlefield, but the outcome would definitely be very bad if they return alive.
With this idea, the combat effectiveness of the coalition soldiers was comparable to that of the Xiliang soldiers for a while. Relying on the combat effectiveness that they unleashed, they could not confront the Xiliang soldiers for too long.
And with the arrival of night, the weather began to become extremely cold again, and the war between the two sides did not disappear just because night fell.
On this huge battlefield, the various units of Xiliang soldiers fought independently. Each of their units was responsible for the battlefield in a certain area. During the day, the two sides were on an equal footing. At night, the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang soldiers began to increase.
It is not that the combat effectiveness of Xiliang soldiers has increased, but that Xiliang soldiers are better at fighting at night, and the weapons and equipment on their bodies are sufficient to support them in fighting at night.
Li Xiang paid great attention to the food of Xiliang soldiers, so that Xiliang soldiers did not suffer from night blindness.
Even at night, as long as there is some lighting in the sky, they can see clearly. However, this is not the case on the coalition side. Many soldiers on the coalition side have night blindness.
Even with the bright moon in the sky at night, they still couldn't see clearly what they saw in front of them. The Xiliang soldiers took advantage of this and began to attack the coalition forces at night.
At the same time, the weather became cold at night, and the innermost layer of clothing of the coalition soldiers was soaked due to the fighting during the day. There was no fire to dry them. In addition, most of these soldiers had not practiced training, so at most they were
I have practiced some moves.
This makes them extremely cold at night!
Many times there was no need for Xiliang soldiers to make a sneak attack. Some of the soldiers died of cold due to the cold, while others began to flee under the cover of night.
During the day, the senior leaders of the coalition forces could still command their troops, but at night, they lost control of their various units, especially after these troops were attacked by the Xiliang army.
The situation on the battlefield began to change violently. The Xiliang army attacked in all directions and launched fierce attacks on various units of the coalition forces.
Under such circumstances at night, even the slightest sound would cause uneasiness among the soldiers, especially when fierce fighting sounds were heard in the distance.
The coalition soldiers couldn't sit still, and they began to run towards the place where there was fire. The bonfire was still in the camp behind them.
The coalition soldiers who ran back looking at the fire were naturally blocked by the troops guarding the camp, because they didn't know if any of these soldiers who ran back had joined the Xiliang army.
On the battlefield, they had encountered the Seventh and Eighth Legions of Xiliang. The soldiers of the Seventh and Eighth Legions looked similar to them.
The only thing that can distinguish them is the weapons and equipment on their bodies!
But now that there are so many corpses on the battlefield, the Xiliang Seventh and Eighth Legion soldiers only need to pick up the weapons and equipment from some corpses to disguise themselves as soldiers of their coalition.
If these disguised soldiers were allowed to sneak into the camp and cooperate with the Xiliang headquarters soldiers, their camp would be breached by the opponent.
Therefore, the defenders in the camp did not allow soldiers from outside to enter the camp, but they lit a bonfire outside the camp so that the soldiers outside the camp could also enjoy the warmth of the bonfire.
More and more troops returned to the vicinity of the camp, not because they wanted to come back, but because they had to come back. The sound of fighting coming from the surrounding area made them feel very uneasy.
They have lost contact with some surrounding armies and may have been destroyed by Xiliang soldiers.
In addition, the temperature is accompanied by deep and cold nights.
Bonfires rose outside the coalition camp, and a large number of soldiers gathered around the bonfire to keep warm. They stood back to back and placed their weapons beside them.
Now they were cold and hungry. Even if there was a bonfire in front of them, it only made them feel a little warm on one side while enduring the cold wind on the other side.
The logistics cooks in the camp are already cooking, but there are so many soldiers. How can they be busy at once? Each unit originally had its own cook camp, but with the fighting, they have lost contact with their own logistics.
After the Xiliang soldiers destroyed the troops outside, they turned their attention to the troops surrounding the camp. The soldiers of the Seventh and Eighth Legions followed the soldiers from Xiliang headquarters and came to the outside of the coalition camp.
In the distance, they could see the hot pot lighting up outside the camp. The light was so dazzling in the darkness.
Following them was the Shenji Battalion, and various war machines from the Shenji Battalion were being transported.
The Xiliang army stopped a mile away from the coalition soldiers in the camp. Both the headquarters soldiers and non-HQ soldiers picked up shovels and started digging. The transport team responsible for transportation transported a large amount of water from a distance.
The weather is very cold now. Other plain areas outside the battlefield have been covered with white snow, and the land has become extremely stiff. Only here on the battlefield, due to the fighting between soldiers, war horses, and trampling of human footprints, the mud has not yet begun.
become stiff.
Hundreds of thousands of people worked together, piled up the dug soil, and poured some water on it. Soon the soil began to become stiff and extremely solid.
They want to catch a turtle in an urn!
The surrounded Pang soldiers could hear the sounds outside, but they pretended not to hear. Anyway, hundreds of thousands of their troops were gathered around the camp. It was impossible for the Xiliang army to rush in at this time!
The other party doesn’t have the courage!
Therefore, these soldiers warmed themselves by the fire, slept around the camp, and waited for food.
The Ma family army on the other side was different. The Xiliang army divided the vest army into several parts, and each part was fighting fiercely. Li Xiang and the Xiliang cavalry were also on their way crazily.
The moonlight shone on him, and Li Xiang, who was running forward crazily, suddenly grabbed his horse.
"You continue to rush to the battlefield." Li Xiang said to the commander of the guards beside him: "Don't ask why."
"yes!"
The Xiliang cavalry did not stop, and continued to charge forward menacingly.
"The flying generals attack!"
Xing Liao's figure suddenly changed, leaving cracks on the ground, along with a black afterimage of Li Xianghuasen.
Bang!
With a dull sound, Li Xiang and Xing Liao had appeared more than ten miles away, and their speed was still increasing rapidly.
The two great masters in the sky stared closely at Li Xiang and an old man fifty miles away from Li Xiang.
The old man's closed eyes suddenly opened, and a long sword flew out with a clang.
"Ten thousand swords return to the clan!"
Whoosh whoosh!
Tens of thousands of long swords emitting blue light appeared in the sky...
