Chapter 446: Underestimated

At night, the banks of the long river suddenly became a battlefield for tens of thousands of people.

Zhang Yongnian's control over the 3,000 cavalry under his command has reached the realm of being like an arm.

This time, instead of letting the cavalry fight in close combat, he kept giving orders, mobilizing them to charge, detour, shoot, and charge......

Like a nimble leopard, it moves and bites a giant elephant.

Their strategic goal this time was to inflict huge casualties on Du Zezhi's family in a short period of time, causing them to flee, and then use the advantage of cavalry to pursue.

The sound of fighting was all over the field, the sound of fire guns sounded like rain, and the screams were endless.

The first few rounds of collisions did bring huge casualties to Du Zezhi's family, but they were not enough.

There was not much time left for Wang Xiao and Zhang Yongnian, and they needed to inflict heavy losses on the enemy again in a very short time.

In the vast land, people live and die together......

Suddenly, the moon was stopped by a cloud.

Then, the torches in Du Zezhi's army were extinguished in a very short time.

The battlefield went dark in an instant.

The deterrent power that the cavalry had managed to gather seemed to have stalled for a moment.

Wang Xiao took a deep breath, and an ominous premonition came to him.

He listened intently, and instead of the sounds of fighting and screaming, he could faintly hear footsteps in the distance.

The footsteps were not neat, but it was clear that many people were arrayed at the same time, still with order in the panic.

Du Zezhi is making adjustments quickly.

There were tens of thousands of people between Wang Xiao and Du Zezhi, and he couldn't hear how the other party commanded.

But at this time, Wang Xiao found ...... I underestimated my opponent.

Since the discovery of Du Zezhi's collaboration with the enemy, there are many methods in front of Wang Xiao, but each one has advantages and disadvantages.

directly went to Santun camp under the banner of superintendent, and Du Zezhi might be the first to attack; If you find a way to kill Du Zezhi alone, you will not be able to eradicate the maladministration of the enemy; Screening other collaborators will take another long time...... All in all, Wang Xiao believes that he has chosen the most effective method in the shortest period of time after careful consideration.

But what he didn't realize was that there was one factor in making this choice: he had become 'belligerent'.

After a few small victories, he had just tasted the thrill of killing and victory, and now was the time when he was most interested in war.

The battle on the bank of the Beidaihe River, the annihilation of a thousand Jiannu, which gave Wang Xiao huge confidence, in his subconscious, the 'invincible' Jurchen is just like this, how unbearable should the rotten Jizhen soldiers be?

But in fact, the erosion of Jizhen's military affairs does not lie in the fact that there are no elite soldiers who can fight, but that these elites are not soldiers of the imperial court, but private soldiers of one person and one family.

The generals of the border passes of the Chu Dynasty liked to support their families in order to support their troops and respect themselves. The combat power of these families is actually quite good, but every time there is a big war...... Naturally, it is to preserve one's own strength, how can there be any reason to use one's own soldiers and horses to serve the court to death?

Du Zezhi is one of them. He has been stationed at the border for many years, and after hundreds of battles, he can finally sit in the position of deputy soldier, and he is not a mediocre talent.

He has controlled Jizhen for many years, and privately supported his family with the imperial court's food and salary. In the past ten years, every time Jiannu entered the fortress and plundered, he pursued Jiannu in the name of looting, and obtained countless treasures. Then, with these bloody silver grains, he raised his family to be well-armored and loyal.

Because of this, Zhao Haocheng couldn't suppress him, the court didn't dare to move him, and even Jiannu wanted to win him over.

From another point of view, Du Zezhi worked hard and spent more than ten years to finally establish his own power in this troubled era, holding heavy troops, and only waiting for the next year to choose a good lord to do things, and the princely wealth will not be a problem in the future......

Tonight, Du Zezhi, who was full of ambition, was suddenly stabbed in the back by Wang Xiao like this, and he was a little panicked at first.

At the same time, he felt a huge anger - how dare anyone touch him?

He found ...... I underestimated Wang Xiao.

But soon, many years of experience in the battle formation made Du Zezhi calm down, calmly respond, and command.

"Jumping clown, dare to fight with me? Then let you see what strength is. ”

……

In the dark, after a few rounds of charges, Zhang Yongnian commanded the cavalry to pull away, and then another round of shooting, and once again slammed into the array of the family in front of him.

The expected collision did not occur. 000 Literature

Suddenly there was a scream in the ranks of the cavalry, and the mournful screams of the horses.

With the neighing of horses, the cavalry in the front row fell off their horses.

Zhang Yongnian squinted his eyes, was taken aback, and secretly said in his heart: "What a fast formation speed." ”

I saw that under the faint moonlight, spears were like forests, and they suddenly stabbed this way!

Zhang Yongnian hurriedly ordered the cavalry to make a detour again.

The next moment, there was a flash of fire in the array in front of them, and the spearmen in the front row crouched down......

"Is it an arquebus?"

"Quick, disperse!"

"Bang...... Bang......"

There was a burst of gunfire, and the man flipped on his back.

"Kill!"

"Kill ......"

The moon moved out of the clouds and once again shone the clear light of the land.

Then, one of the families lit one huge bonfire after another. Suddenly, the battlefield lit up again.

Zhang Yongnian squinted his eyes, looked over, but saw a column of soldiers rushing towards this side very ferociously, trying to isolate his array and restrict the movement of the cavalry.

"Retreat! Distance! ”

Suddenly, a spear shot out, and the sound of breaking through the air was extremely poignant.

Zhang Yongnian turned sideways to avoid it, and heard a roar in the distance.

"Wu Na bird, dare to fight with Lao Tzu?!"

Zhang Yongnian looked from a distance through the crowd and saw a very tall and strong man holding two golden hammers in his hand, running towards him.

"Fight your mother." Zhang Yongnian took a sip.

Not to mention the distance, he still has to command the soldiers and horses, and he is really too lazy to deal with this rough man.

The next moment, I saw the big man with the golden hammer jumping, stepping on the backs of other family members all the way, and I don't know how many people he stepped on, and rushed to the front quickly.

Then, he dropped his sledgehammer and smashed it one of the cavalrymen......

Kill people and take horses, all in one go. The big man galloped wildly and rushed towards Zhang Yongnian.

Cavalry were about to stop him along the way, and the movement of the rear ranks slowed down.

Zhang Yongnian was furious and shouted: "Ignore him! Retreat, quick! Distance......"

He himself turned his horse's head and faced the golden hammer man, holding the long knife horizontally in his hand, accumulating strength.

When the golden hammer man rushed in front of him, Zhang Yongnian slashed it down.

With a loud bang, the big man with the golden hammer took the knife hard, and the horse neighed and knelt down with his front hooves.

The big man fell to the ground, and immediately got up again, looking up to the sky and laughing.

"Hahaha, powerful. Again! ”

Zhang Yongnian snorted angrily, didn't have time to pay attention to this reckless man, raised his head and glanced at the battlefield, turned his horse and left.

"A detour to the east! Attack them on the flank......"

While commanding the soldiers and horses, Zhang Yongnian turned his head and saw that the golden hammer man was actually chasing after him with his legs, and his speed was not much slower than that of the horse.

This stupid man is really a little annoying, Zhang Yongnian pulled out the fire gun from his boots, turned around and slammed it back.

I saw the big man with the golden hammer fall to the ground, and I didn't know if he was hit......
