XXI. The First Battle

Within sight, a group of black-armored cavalry slowly reined in the horse's head in the distance, and then the two horsemen turned their heads and galloped, and the remaining three horses scattered in a group, staring at it deadly.

Officers and soldiers, Zhu Wu's heart suddenly rose to his throat. He had seen blood and killed people, but it was the first time he had seen the officers and soldiers. The brothers under his command were also suddenly a little flustered, after all, they were displaced not long ago.

"Your Excellency!" Zhu Wu's rangers were so tired that the men and horses were out of strength, "When I encounter a team of officers and cavalry, I'm afraid there are more than a hundred or ten!" ”

"Only cavalry? Don't see anything else? Zhu Wu asked, the cavalry is not afraid, what he is afraid of is that these cavalry are the vanguard of the official army, if that is the case, he has less than 200 people and is not enough for people to stuff their teeth.

The ranger drank and shook his head, and Li Sai said beside Zhu Wu, "It's the Han army!" "He has been a soldier all his life, and he knows the other party's origins at a glance.

This Han army was not the Han army that Li Sai and other people originally defended the city, but the Han field troops under the command of various Daru Huachi, who were the vanguard of the Mongolian Semu people during the war, and prepared their own weapons and horses. The combat effectiveness is extremely strong, and the military discipline is extremely poor.

"Fifth brother, what's the matter? Fight or withdraw! Guo Xing asked nervously.

"It's too late to withdraw, you see!" Zhu Wu's horse whip pointed in the direction of the enemy, and more than a dozen horsemen came roaring, converging with the original enemy.

Zhu Wu is no longer the military novice he was at the beginning, his subordinates are all infantry, and the retreat in a panic is bitten by the cavalry, and people don't have to rush into battle at all, they can exhaust and scare their people to death by hanging from afar, just like a wolf catching a sheep.

The enemy is a wolf, and if you want them not to eat themselves, the only way is to be ruthless and beat them.

Looking around, there was a hill behind him, and Zhu Wu said, "The third, the fourth, take the brothers up the mountain to line up!" As he spoke, Zongma said to his brothers, "I'm afraid of a ball, there are more of us than them." The officers and soldiers are also two shoulders and one head, and it is not a bloody move to go down with a knife! ”

He was pretending to be calm, the reins were in the palm of his hand, his heart was pounding, he would be the soul of the army, he couldn't let his brothers see any weakness, otherwise he wouldn't have to fight the enemy, and everyone would be defeated.

"Come with me!"

The Guo brothers took their subordinates, turned around and ran towards the hill.

Zhu Wu instructed Li Sai again, "Change horses for the rangers and go back to Haozhou for help!" ”

Thanks to the daily training, almost 200 people went up the mountain to line up, and they were in an orderly manner. The chicken carts and mules drawn by the army were barricaded in front of the formation, followed by spears, knives and shields, and the archers were hidden behind.

"Take out our palm thunder!" Zhu Wu gritted his teeth and said, he was not nervous when it came to the end. The palm thunder is an earthen grenade, the gunpowder is Xi Yingzhen's old man, the outside is a bamboo tube, and the inside is filled with iron nails and steel balls, which is extremely powerful.

This time, Zhu Wu brought out half of the prepared food in the camp, almost three people, and if the enemy dared to come, it would be enough for them to drink a pot.

But this thing is all a trump card, Zhu Wu gathered all the palm thunder and handed it over to his guards, and the incense head was also lit and ready to be lit and thrown out at any time.

Xi Yingzhen took his apprentices to follow Zhu Wu's personal guards, these two are also strange people, some of these soldiers are so nervous that their hands tremble, and they are all right.

He also pointed out the soldiers who were temporarily transferred as grenadiers by Zhu Wu and said, "After igniting, check the three numbers and throw them, and they can just explode on the top of the enemy's brain within 30 meters!" ”

As soon as this side was busy, the cavalry over there began to move.

The cavalry in the film and television drama charged, the wind was galloping, the ground was shaking, but the cavalry in front of him was slow and leisurely, not in a hurry. It's like a walk, strolling.

However, the slower the enemy, the more panicked he became. The joints of the more brothers holding the barrel of the gun turned white, their heads were covered with sweat, and some of the brothers' arms were faintly shaking.

"Yo, the barbarians on the other side are not bad, it's not messed up yet!"

The enemy Han army Qianhu Quanxu was a man with a centipede-like scar on his face, and he sneered on his horse. He had a maroon horse in his crotch, wearing iron armor with goggles, and a sword and bow hanging from the back of the saddle.

A younger man beside him, who looked a little similar to him, said with a smile, "Big brother, before they lined up just now, it would be good for the younger brother to lead people directly to rush over!" ”

Quan Xu smiled, "It's okay! Left and right they are all dead, get together and kill it to save trouble, and if they are messed up, they have to be caught in four places, wasting horsepower. As he spoke, he pointed at Zhu Wu on the small hill with a horsewhip, "Send someone over and shout!" ”

"No!" As soon as the words fell, a horse rushed out of the team, beating the horse and galloping.

Zhu Wu's palms were sweaty and slimy. The Guo brothers were beside him, looking like a model of the great enemy.

"The third, the fourth, are you afraid!"

The Guo brothers turned around at the same time, and Guo Xingqiang smiled, "Fifth brother, I'm not afraid!" ”

Guo Ying waved the steel knife in his hand twice, and said fiercely, "Fifth brother, our brothers are together!" ”

"Good brother!" Zhu Wu also squeezed out a little smile, "Reiterate military discipline!" ”

"One person retreats and kills one group, and one group retreats and kills one team!" The Guo brothers and others pulled their necks and shouted, "Cowardice, don't kill!" Those who do not listen to orders, kill! ”

The cold military discipline roared out of the cavity, and Zhu Wu's team stood more steady. Discipline is the most important thing in this team, and it is also the belief that Zhu Wu has always instilled.

The enemy cavalry rode forward and shouted fifty paces away, "Listen to the barbarians on the other side, my lord has mercy and surrenders to Keliuer and the other corpses." Otherwise, you will unload eight pieces and feed them to the dogs! ”

"Li Sai, shoot him!"

Zhu Wu's words fell, and the strong bow in Li Sai's hand went to the full moon, and with a snap, a feather arrow roared out, but the other party was faster, pulling the horse's head and taking off in place, and in a blink of an eye, the horse returned to the main formation. The arrow only hit the ground.

"Brethren!" Zhu Wu said loudly, "Did you hear what that dog day said just now?" Let's surrender to leave a whole corpse, my day he is the first, and the officers and soldiers on the opposite side have no intention of letting us live! ”

"Fight with him!" A soldier shouted.

"He wants us to die, the guy in our hands is not jealous, cheer up, kill one is enough to kill two and earn one!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

………

The roar of the two hundred is the answer.

"I don't know if I'm alive or dead!"

Han Jun Qianhu Quan Xu's eyes were cold, and he waved his hand, "Fulfill you!" ”

The flag was moved, and the two cavalry squads, numbering about forty people, rode their horses and trotted over.

Get ready! Get ready!

Zhu Wu thought silently in his heart, he was in a high place, and the enemy was in a low place, so the cavalry did not rush over directly, but lingered fifty steps away.

"Dog Ridi, I'm afraid I'm touching the hereditary elite of the Han army!" Li Sai said.

In the Mengyuan army, there were a large number of Han troops, the best of which were those hereditary generals, these people did nothing since they were born, specialized in fighting, and their combat effectiveness was a few points stronger than the Semu people.

"How can you tell?" Zhu Wu asked in surprise.

Li Sai pointed to the cavalry in front of the formation, "They are changing bows!" These cavalrymen brought double bows! ”

The cavalry was mostly horned bows, and too large bows were inconvenient on horses. Half of the cavalry below took out a man-high bow from behind their horses, and their arrows were thicker and longer than ordinary arrows.

Then he saw one of the enemy cavalrymen, stretched out his finger to test the direction of the wind, let the mount trot a few laps to accumulate strength, and then shouted loudly, and the horse galloped wildly. Then, when the horse was at its fastest, the knight actually stood up straight on his feet.

Sou!

Immediately the knight shot an arrow, and the great inertia attached his body to the saddle, and the arrow whistled with a sharp cracking sound.

Syllable! Airplanes!

An arrow landed right on the wooden cart in front of the formation, and the arrow was completely shot in, and the tail of the arrow buzzed.

He shoots from low to high, and he actually has such power. Before he had time to sigh, a group of enemy troops in front of the formation dismounted, round shield scimitars. The other team followed the example of the archers just now and warmed up with their horses.

Thirty paces away from the enemy, the cavalry ran. A neat diagonal line was drawn at the foot of the mountain. Then all of a sudden, dozens of arrows rained down from the horse.

"Raise your shield!"

Zhu Wusheng was hoarse and shouted loudly.

Woohoo!

The howling wind broke the air, and Mitsubishi's arrows rotated with a visible eye.

Boom!

Bows and arrows were shot at iron shields like rain hitting banana leaves.

Yes!

Zhu Wu saw the spear brothers in the first row with his own eyes, and the bow and arrow shot directly through the neck, and only one syllable was issued, and he fell straight down.

Mother!

There were brothers whose arms were pierced by bows and arrows, and their thighs were pierced. Rolling in the dirt, crying and wailing.

Zhu Wu's mind was buzzing, and the people in his sight all turned into slow motion, and there was only one color in his eyes, red.

This is war, real war, a war in which life and death are in an instant. No wonder Li Sai said that it was the elite of the Han army, and forty people dared to attack two hundred people, and let several lie down here with one face.

The officers shouted hoarsely, "Don't mess up, don't mess up!" ”

In the confusion, the enemy troops charging under the hill were within fifteen paces. After the line of archers on horseback drew a circle neatly, another wave of arrows came.

In later generations, there was infantry and artillery coordination, and now there is infantry and arrow coordination. The enemy rushed upwards with their bows and arrows, armed to the teeth of the tiger, and here was the farmer who had just laid down his hoe for a few days.

"Raise your shield!"

There were screams again, and it was red again, and the soldiers' jackets were rags, which could not be stopped at all.

"Did Lao Tzu let you quit?"

A young soldier threw his weapon and wanted to run, but Guo Ying grabbed his hair and directly wiped it. Holding his throat, he fell to the ground with a gurgle, struggling in front of Zhu Wu, his eyes full of despair.

Guo Xing was shouting loudly, "Raise your guns in the first row, raise your guns!" ”

Li Sai commanded the few archers on this side, "Shoot!" ”

"Fifth brother, come up!"

Guo Xing shouted loudly in the first row, and the hideous faces of the enemy soldiers were in front of him, and he was about to jump in with the chicken bus in front of him.

Zhu Wu suddenly shouted, like a beast, "Kill!" ”

A fallen spear on the ground, with red blood on the pole, Zhu Wu grabbed it, howled like a madman, and rushed to the first row.

A black-armored enemy rushed to the front, and with the force of the impact, he threw out a short axe and hit a soldier in the head. In an instant, a gap was made in the first row, and the enemy soldier grinned and stepped on the chicken cart to jump into the formation. Just jump in and it will turn into a big gap.

However, before his body could jump, a spear suddenly appeared in his sight.

"I'm a mother!"

Zhu Wuyi shot at the enemy's stall, and the man screamed and rolled down.

"Brethren, we have to live! Kill! ”

Alive! Yes, alive! We all have to live, we are hungry to live, we have lost our homes and land to live, and we have watched our parents die of illness and hunger in order to live. We have to live, we have to leave a seed for our family!

Alive!

The Guo brothers were covered in blood and shouted beside Zhu Wu.

Alive!

The brother who was still flustered and scared was not weak.

Alive!

Kill the enemy and we will live!

The spears are like a forest, and the enemy in front is temporarily forced to slow down.

But on the side, the archers who had just released their arrows also dismounted, armed with scimitars, and touched them from the side.
