Chapter 51 Narrow Road Encounters and People Are Crowded (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
"Knock knock ......"
More than a dozen big drums mounted on the carriage and more than a dozen shirtless strong men beat together, and among the strong men beating the drums, there was the marshal of Hebei soldiers and horses, Zhao Kai, the king of Yun!
Okay, the dignified Prince of Song, he almost won the top talent Zhao Kai, and now his true form is revealed!
Now Zhao Kai has gone to the armor robe, and on a cold day, he wore a sleeveless placket armor, two thick and strong arms are exposed, if you walk in and take a look, you can also see the chest hair exposed from the neckline of the armor, plus the full beard, where is this image of a gentle and elegant Song Dynasty scholar (in fact, most of the officials of the Song Dynasty are bearded, and the chamberlain is a little white face), the whole one is charging into battle with a fierce Zhang Fei, almost carrying the Zhangba snake spear shirtless!
In front of this bearded king Zhao Kai, who was almost shirtless, there were two thousand-strong infantry phalanxes and a cavalry formation composed of seven or eight hundred horsemen.
The two infantry phalanxes were all hand-to-hand combatants, each wearing full infantry armor, with spears in the front row and long axes and knives in the back, each with a side card (a small shield, usually used by cavalrymen) on his left hand.
That cavalry formation was led by Han Shizhong himself, and the task was to supervise the battle of the two infantry phalanxes, and at the same time prepare to counterattack when the victorious army launched a cavalry attack.
At the same time that these three formations of infantry cavalry were preparing to attack, there were already thousands of divine arm archers divided into two formations, under the command of He Guan and Wang Yuan, under the cover of the cavalry, and approached a distance of 100 steps away from the golden army chariot array. Wave after wave of crossbow arrows began to be fired at the golden soldiers' car array!
The distance of a hundred steps is not far away, and it is not close to it, just outside the killing range of ordinary bows and arrows (not counting the kind of particularly awesome archers), but the crossbow arrows shot by the divine arm bow still have a certain lethality. It is unlikely that you will be able to shoot through the Iron Armor and the Large, but there is still a certain probability that you will pass through the gap between the two Larges and then shoot through the leather armor that has little defense.
The equipment of the Changsheng Army in Guo Yaoshi's headquarters is relatively good, almost everyone has an iron armor to protect their bodies, and some people can also put on two pairs of iron armor, a pair of chain armor and a pair of armor, so they are not very afraid of the Song army's divine arm bow.
But the Nanjing Road Han'er Army was not good, only had a tattered leather armor body, and in the face of the Song Army's divine arm bow, they could only shrink behind the big sword. However, the army led by Guo Yaoshi and Liu Yanzong did not carry much Da Yu. This time, the Jin soldiers used the method of traveling lightly and quickly to the south, and it was impossible to carry a lot of heavy equipment. Therefore, the large poles placed behind the chariot array are very sparse now, and there are constantly arrows shot by the Divine Arm Bow passing between the two large poles. The generals of the Nanjing Han'er Army, who were held in front by the veterans of the victorious army as meat shields, were hit by arrows one after another, and they were soon shot over!
Screams and angry scolding immediately rang out. There were also many generals of the Han Army on Nanjing Road who wanted to escape, but they were grabbed by the ancestor of the Changsheng Army who supervised the battle behind and dragged to Guo Yaoshi and Guo Tiannu, father and daughter.
Guo Yaoshi didn't look at them, and Guo Tiannu said with a cold face: "Kill them all!" ”
When the veterans of the victorious army got the order, they all responded, and then drew their knives and cut off their heads without hesitation!
More than a dozen heads were cut off alive in this way, and they were all picked with spears and inserted in front of the battle to shock people's hearts!
Under the shock of more than a dozen bloody human heads, the generals of the Han Er Army could only suffer crossbow arrows...... Fortunately, the Song army did not have unlimited crossbow arrows, and the Divine Arm Archers did not have unlimited physical strength.
After four or five thousand crossbow arrows were shot from thousands of Divine Arm Bows, the archers had to catch their breath, and if they were to play, they would have to pay more!
Historically, when the seed division led the troops to relieve the siege of Taiyuan, because they did not bring money and goods, they "boycotted" half of the crossbowmen, and suffered a crushing defeat......
When the Divine Arm Archers stopped shooting arrows and began to recharge their energy to prepare for the next battle, the two infantry thousand-man phalanx commanded by He Mo and Liu Qi began to launch!
We can't let these people wait too long, or else the courage will pass...... Most of them are not professional hand-to-hand armorers, but archers and crossbowmen, and although their explosive power is not small, their durability is insufficient, and they are not proficient in the art of fighting, nor can they charge in formation. That is, it is just a rush with the courage to be inspired by heavy rewards!
"Kill the thief! Kill the thief! Kill the thief ......"
As Liu Qi and He Mo took the lead in shouting, the shouts of 2,000 people rose at once, and it was the climax!
The sound of shouting shook the heavens and the earth!
Two thousand tiger ben, like two thousand moving iron towers, rumbled forward and crushed forward.
Guo Yaoshi saw the hand-to-hand combat soldiers of the Song army coming up, and hurriedly ordered his generals Liu Shunren and Zhen Wuchen to lead two thousand-strong teams to line up two phalanxes behind the car formation.
Therefore, it is necessary to let the unlucky Liu Jiajun (Nanjing Han'er Army) be used as a meat shield to block the spears of the Song people.
In addition, Guo Yaoshi also mobilized 1,000 veterans of the victorious army to hold bows and arrows behind his two phalanxes and throw feather arrows at the approaching Song army armor soldiers.
The two thousand armor soldiers of the Song army were all wearing heavy armor, and even if they were shot with heavy arrows that broke the armor, they would not cause too many casualties.
However, the circle of car formation posed by Guo Yaoshi was a trouble, and the armorers couldn't jump over, and they couldn't jump with dozens of catties of armor draped on their bodies! The big axe men had to step forward and move the car away. There were also a small number of divine arms in the Changsheng army (they also served as Song soldiers!). At this time, he began to exert his strength, and aimed at the Song army with long axes, it was a burst of shots, and they immediately shot a lot.
The rest of the long axe soldiers wanted to retreat, but they saw that He Mo and Liu Qi were on the front line with knives and axes, so they had to turn back and continue to work.
He Guan and Wang Yuan also transferred some divine arm archers with good archery skills to fire crossbow arrows to suppress the crossbowmen of the Changsheng army.
The arrows of both sides were in the air, and from time to time someone fell to the ground screaming at the arrow.
After a while, the car formation was still split open, but it was not too big, not only could not accommodate two thousand-person phalanxes to attack together, but even a phalanx could not squeeze in.
However, Liu Qi still gave the order to his subordinates to attack!
Because he saw from a distance that the pikemen of the gold thief's infantry (Nanjing Han'er Army) were also gathering towards the gap, and it would be even more difficult to break through if he didn't rush!
"Kill the thief! Kill the thief! Kill the thief! Kill ......"
With the sound of a rapid drum (small drum), the sound of the warrior's shouting shook the earth, and thousands of children flocked to the top, and everyone scrambled to be the first!
Zhao Kai was so nervous that he even forgot to beat the drums, just holding two sticks, holding his breath, and stretching his neck to look forward.
From where he stood, he saw that thousands of warriors in iron armor had been crowded together, forming a stream of iron that was forging ahead. The spears in the first few rows of Tieliu had been flattened, and the tips of the iron guns emitted a chilling glow in the sunlight!
On the opposite side of them, a meniscus formed by the tips of countless shiny spears, also roared forward.
This is the narrow road to meet the brave wins!
The warriors with spears on both sides collided together in the blink of an eye! Some were pierced through the body by spears and let out screams of despair! Some were knocked to the ground by the tip of their guns, screaming for help, while many more shouted for death and squeezed forward with all their might...... That's right, it's squeezing! It's not rushing, because the four thousand people on both sides are now crowded together at a relatively narrow breach, and they can't rush at all.
Now it's a narrow road and crowded!
