Chapter 484: The End of a Hero (Part II)

Five miles southwest of Jixian County, there is nothing to obstruct in the past, but it is a plain. At this moment, on this plain, there are two armies standing quietly, ready for the upcoming battle.

Let's take a look at the direction of Jixian County, which is naturally Gongsun Zhan's army.

Gongsun Chan was wearing delicate bright silver armor, wearing a bright silver helmet, holding a long lance, and a red horse under his crotch, holding a majestic and majestic hand; behind Gongsun Chan, there were six people lined up, one of whom was wearing a leather armor and a handful of accessories in his hand, but he was Gongsun Zhan's only adviser Guan Li, and he was also Guan Jing's brother. In addition, the five people are all wearing chain mail, tiger helmets, and the weapons they hold are also varied. There are those with lances, and there are those with broadswords, and there are those with halberds. One of the youngest is Gongsun Zhan's righteous son, Gongsun Ran, and the other three are Gongsun Zhan's sworn brothers, diviner Liu Weitai, Li Yizi, Jia Renle He Dang, all three of them have some force, since they have been married to Gongsun Zhan, sweeping away foreign races, all three of them have participated. Looking further back, there are other partial generals, captains, etc., or wearing leather armor, or wearing fish scale armor. However, among the hundreds of thousands of soldiers behind them, few of them could wear armor, and most of them were leather armor or linen wrapped in sackcloth, which could barely be called cloth armor.

And the soldiers and horses opposite Gongsun Zan are naturally Yuan Shao's army.

Yuan Shaoce took the lead, and he was also wearing a bright silver armor, a bright silver helmet, a gold-backed machete in his hand, and an electronic green horse under his crotch, which could be regarded as a good BMW. Behind Yuan Shao, there are advisors such as Judge, Feng Ji, Fu Zhu, Guo Tu, and Tian Feng. In terms of the quality and quantity of the strategists, they surpassed Gongsun Zhan by 108,000 li; they were followed by Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, and Gao Lan, the generals of the Hebei Sitingzhu, followed by Chun Yuqiong, Gao Gan, Jiang Qi, Jiang Yiqu, Wei Yuanjin, Lu Weihuang, Zhao Rui, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang, Ma Yan, Zhang Yi, Jiao Touch, Zhang Nan, Lu Yi, Guo Yuanjin, Zhao Zhao, Su You, Yan Rou, Wang Menzi, and other generals. It also looks a lot more elite than Gongsun Zhan. Of course, Yuan Shao is slightly better in terms of the quality of military generals. However, in terms of the number of soldiers, Gongsun Chan naturally has more advantages. Gongsun Zhan's soldiers and horses add up to nearly 200,000, while Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses are only about 120,000, a difference of about 80,000, but who wins and who loses is not certain.

Like Gongsun Zhan's soldiers, Yuan Shao's soldiers wore helmets and armor in a minority, accounting for about 20% of the total. It's not that Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are stingy and reluctant to equip the soldiers with armor, but they can't take it out.

Armor has been a highly valued strategic equipment for the imperial court since ancient times. But whoever dares to hide armor in the people's family can be punished for a crime. The armor of most generals was naturally rewarded by the imperial court. The main reason is that the armor is quite difficult to make, and it is expensive, and the technology is insufficient. Even in Li Shimin's time, the armor in the army only accounted for sixty percent, and there were still forty percent of the soldiers who could not wear armor. And it was not until after the Song Dynasty that technology was developed and economic development was developed. Only more than ninety percent of the soldiers in the army can wear armor, and now they naturally can't do this.

Of course, Yuan Chang, who is a traverser, is not among them, he wants money and money. It is self-evident that most soldiers can wear armor if they have to be skilled.

Gongsun Zhan stepped forward with a gun and pointed at Yuan Shao. Lang shouted: "Yuan Benchu, you are not trustworthy. It has harmed my brother's life, and now it is even more invading my territory. Regardless of the past. Today, you and I will fight it out here, but we have grievances. ”

"Haha, okay, this assassin also wants to see how capable Gongsun Boqi is who can kill other races who dare not invade!" Yuan Shao laughed loudly and responded loudly.

After the two finished speaking, they each led the general to return to the Chinese army. As the main general, it is naturally impossible to stand in front and give the opposing archers a chance to aim.

Gongsun Zhan returned to the Chinese army, raised his sword, and shouted loudly: "Captain Ma Du obeyed the order, led 5,000 sword and shield soldiers in front, and 5,000 pikemen held back and attacked!"

On the other side, Consul General Yuan Shaojun also issued the same order!

"Captain Zhao Rui listened to the order and led 5,000 sword and shield soldiers in front, and 5,000 pikemen in the back and attacked!"

"Bang, bang, bang!"

"Drink, drink, drink!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The sword and shield men on both sides held their shields in their left hands and their swords in their right hands, and slowly marched forward with their long knives and shields, and behind the sword and shield men, the pikemen also slowly moved forward. Now that it was just a confrontation, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan did not directly fight, but only sent sword and shield soldiers and pikemen to attack tentatively. This is a decisive battle between the two sides, and they are fighting hard and hard, without any conspiracy and tricks, and purely looking at the command ability and the ability to adapt on the battlefield.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

After a brief advance, the shieldmen on both sides finally came face to face. The sword and shield soldiers on both sides are slashing with long knives and waving shields, relying entirely on the experience and force of the soldiers, as well as the fierceness of the soldiers, in this face-to-face hand-to-hand combat, any conspiracy and trickery have no effect.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

After the sword and shield soldiers made a short encounter, the pikemen also rushed forward, stood behind the sword and shield soldiers, and stabbed at the enemy sword and shield soldiers with the spears in their hands. The shield used by the sword and shield soldiers is not an iron shield more than one person high, and can only defend the effective range, so when the pikemen participate in the battlefield, the casualties of the sword and shield soldiers on both sides begin to intensify, and more and more sword and shield soldiers fall, and then the prepared sword and shield soldiers step forward to fill the position.

With severed limbs and splattered flesh and blood, the battlefield is so cruel that no one can avoid it. On the cruel battlefield, the blood of the soldiers has gradually been aroused, some soldiers have been penetrated by the opponent's weapons, however, the soldiers did not fall down immediately, but pounced on the opponent's neck, and had to pull one before dying; some soldiers have been cut to the ground, looking for an opportunity to bite the enemy soldiers' calves, so that their own soldiers rush up and dismantle the enemy soldiers; or some soldiers have closed their eyes, but suddenly open their eyes, pounce up, and stab the unsuspecting enemy soldiers, and die together.

A total of 20,000 soldiers on both sides slashed and slashed in this piece of heaven and earth, and countless soldiers fell one after another, and they may still have unwillingness and doubts in their eyes before they fell. What is unwilling is that they have not yet been promoted and become generals. Yijin returned home, the girl she once loved in her hometown. Now they have become other women, and they still wonder why they are fighting. And for whom is the war for?

"General Liu Weitai, lead your five thousand cavalry and prepare to attack!"

"No!"

Gongsun Chan gave orders with an expressionless face, he had been at war with foreign races for many years, and he had long been accustomed to life and death on the battlefield, and the death of a soldier could not cause the slightest wave in Gongsun Chan's heart.

At the sound of an order, the flag commander standing on the carriage kept waving the flag with both hands, and the soldiers on the battlefield immediately changed. The pikemen standing behind the sword and shield soldiers quickly dispersed to the sides. The sword and shield soldiers who were fighting to the death were also slowly moving to the sides. The next battle is naturally not something they can participate in.

Similarly, the trial of the opposite conductor also discovered the changes on Gongsun Zhan's side, and immediately began to command.

"Captain Ma Yan, lead four thousand cavalry, ready to meet the enemy!"

Under the order of the trial, Ma Yan, the general under Yuan Shao, also made preparations. When the flag ordered the soldiers to wave down, Mayan roared and danced his spear. Led four thousand cavalry to charge towards the battlefield. Jizhou is not a place to produce horses, and it cannot be compared with Gongsun Chan in Youzhou, and the cavalry is naturally not comparable to Gongsun Chan.

Someone may have asked, since this is the case. Why didn't Gongsun Chan dispatch the White Horse Followers? The cavalry charge was like a tank on the battlefield, and few soldiers could resist it; besides, the White Horse Followers were elite cavalrymen, so Gongsun Chan dispatched the White Horse Followers. Wouldn't it be possible to immediately decide the course of the battlefield? It is true that the cavalry is very strong, but. Archers are also not vegetarians. Bai Ma Yi rushed over in a daze like this, and Yuan Shao's archers would teach them how to be people in minutes.

"Boom!" "Boom!"

"Boom!" "Boom!"

The momentum with which the cavalry charged was truly astonishing. The two sides combined were only nine thousand cavalry charges, and the whole earth began to tremble like an earthquake. It is conceivable that if Gongsun Zhan's 20,000 white horses are charged, what kind of momentum will there be, it makes people tremble when they think about it.

"Bang!"

In the blink of an eye, the cavalry of the two sides had already collided together. The fight began in the blink of an eye. The sword and shield soldiers or pikemen who were on the battlefield before, or those who did not have time to transfer the battlefield, were immediately crushed into pieces of meat under the collision of the cavalry charge, their livers splashed, and their brains flew out, and they were already dead and could not die anymore.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Gongsun Zhan's sworn brother Liu Weitai was wielding a spear and leading 5,000 cavalry to charge forward bravely; on the opposite side, Ma Yan, a lieutenant under Yuan Shao's command, also slapped his broadsword and slashed at him, and no one had the slightest fear on his face; only those who fought bravely and fearlessly could win.

"Ahh

"Hmm!"

The owners of the horses fell, some of them stayed where they were, as if they did not know what to do, and did not know that death was coming, and some of the horses galloped away from the battlefield after their masters fell. The cavalry on both sides ran a distance of hundreds of meters, turned their horses, and fought again.

"Ahh

"Hmm!"

The Youzhou cavalry, which has been fighting with foreign races for many years, is indeed extraordinary, and the number of troops is 1,000 more than the cavalry that Yuan Shao went to war. After a few rounds of charges, the 4,000 cavalry under Ma Yan's command had already suffered no more than 2,000 casualties; on the other hand, Liu Weitai's 5,000 cavalry, there were still more than 3,000, which obviously overwhelmed Yuan Shao's cavalry.

Seeing this, the judge of the commander of the Chinese army frowned involuntarily.

"Captain Zhang Yi, you and lead 2,000 cavalry to help Captain Ma Yan!"

"No!"

Zhang Yi shouted, and led 2,000 cavalry with a spear to charge on the battlefield.

Seeing this, a disdainful smile flashed at the corner of Gongsun Zhan's mouth, comparing the cavalry with his own side, he really didn't know how to die.

"General Li Yizi, you lead 3,000 cavalry to help General Liu Weitai, and you must take down the head of the enemy general!"

"The last general commands!"

Li Yizi shouted, and with a wave of his hand, the cavalry under his command divided three thousand cavalry and rushed towards the battlefield. That's right, Gongsun Zhan's three sworn brothers fought against Gongsun Chan against foreign races, so the commanders under his command were all cavalry. Each has 5,000 cavalry, a total of 15,000, plus Gongsun Zhan's 20,000 white horse righteous servants, the cavalry in Youzhou has reached an astonishing 35,000, in terms of all forces in the world today. In addition to Dong Zhuo's Liangzhou cavalry before, the number of Gongsun Zhan's cavalry is a well-deserved NO.1.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The injection of fresh force made the cavalry, which had been fighting for several rounds on both sides, full of fighting spirit again, holding spears and charging fiercely.

It was another two rounds of charges, and the cavalry of Ma Yan and Zhang Yi on Yuan Shao's side added up to less than 4,000, but they had to face more than 6,000 cavalry of Liu Weitai and Li Yizi, plus the combat strength was not as good as the other party, and the damage of the cavalry under Ma Yan and Zhang Yi was naturally visible. At the moment, there are less than 3,000 cavalry, and if they charge a few more rounds, I am afraid that these 3,000 cavalry will also be lost. The judge under the command of the Chinese army quietly glanced at Yuan Shao, and sure enough, at this moment, Yuan Shao's brows were already furrowed, and the expression on his face was also very unpleasant. After thinking about it, the trial decided to abandon the cavalry engagement and switch to other arms to fight.

"Lead the captain, you lead five thousand pikemen forward, resist the enemy's cavalry charge, and exchange our cavalry back. ”

Even without the suppression of archers, pikemen can do great damage to cavalry. Moreover, the cost of pikemen is low, as long as the young man holds a spear, it is considered the lowest class of troops except for miscellaneous soldiers and auxiliaries. As long as the pikemen rushed up and put the spears away, the horses rushed up to naturally die or die, and even if the cavalry charge could break through the pikemen's formation, the losses would inevitably be not small. Expensive cavalry in exchange for cheap pikemen, no general would want to do this kind of trade.

Gongsun Zhan on the opposite side naturally saw the banner of the trial and match the soldiers, and of course he understood what the trial was going to do. Immediately, Gongsun Chan also immediately ordered: "Captain Song Cheng, after this round of cavalry charge, lead 10,000 pikemen to the top!"

Gongsun Chan had a large number of troops, and naturally there were many pikemen who were cheap to build, so he decided to use the number to create an advantage for his side.

The commanders and generals of the cavalry on both sides saw the banner of their own Chinese troops, and naturally they would not disobey the order. I have to say that Liu Weitai, who was born as a fortune teller, and Li Yizi, who was born as a cloth seller, are quite informal. Moreover, the two are sworn brothers, and they cooperate seamlessly, and after a quick glance at each other, they immediately made a decision.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The four generals on both sides shouted at the same time and made a final charge, so that they could calmly retreat to their own camp. Seeing that the cavalry of the two sides was about to collide together, I didn't want to, Liu Weitai, who had only more than 2,000 cavalry left in the 5,000 cavalry, suddenly made a gesture, and immediately 1,000 cavalry were separated to join Li Yizi's cavalry team, and Liu Weitai himself also gave up the command of the cavalry under his command, handed it over to the deputy general, and joined forces with Li Yizi to attack Zhang Yi's cavalry team.

Ma Yan and Zhang Yi were shocked, but at this moment, the cavalry was about to collide, and Ma Yan had no time to react, so he could only watch as Liu Weitai and Li Yizi's more than 3,000 cavalry surrounded Zhang Yi's more than 1,000 cavalry.

However, when he charged back into his camp, Ma Yan only saw that there were less than 1,000 cavalry left under Zhang Yi's leadership, and Zhang Yi himself was full of cavalry spears, and he couldn't die anymore. (Mu has a way, Zhang Yi's name is too difficult to beat, so he can only get a boxed lunch in advance.) Zhang Yi: ... )

"The general is mighty, our army will win!"

"General Liu Weitai is mighty, our army will win!"

"General Li Yizi is mighty, our army will win!"

When the soldiers under Gongsun Zhan's command saw that they had killed an enemy general, they immediately shouted loudly. On the other hand, the soldiers of Yuan Shao's army had a slight drop in morale. (To be continued.) )
