Yang Ye slashed Wang Fubao with one sword, and the soldiers of Xia, who were still cheering, became silent at this time, and they all looked at the majestic veteran Yang Ye on the battlefield with wide eyes.

Dou Jiande looked at Wang Fubao in the distance, and anger, grief, and regret filled his chest.

Although Wang Fubao died at the hands of Dou Jiande in history, it was because Wang Fubao's achievements were high, and there were villains to provoke him. However, now because of the birth of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, Wang Fubao's title as the first general of the Xia Army is more in terms of qualifications than merits. So is the relationship between the two as bad as it was in history?

"Zhu Di, I want you to take over Wang Fubao as the chief general of the former army, lead the 30,000 elites of the former army to press the Sui army formation, and avenge General Wang Fubao!" Dou Jiande's eyes were red, and he almost yelled at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di was stunned when he heard this, and said cautiously: "King, now that the morale of our army is low, I'm afraid this is not a good opportunity to send troops to fight!" ”

Dou Jiande glanced at Zhu Di coldly, "Didn't you understand Lone's order?" ”

"The last general obeys!"

Seeing the murderous aura revealed in Dou Jiande's eyes, Zhu Di could only arch his hand and rushed to the front line. shouted and ordered: "Brothers, don't panic, we are four times the enemy, no matter how brave Yang Ye, the old horseman, cannot change the absolute disparity in strength." The order, with the sword and shield hands in front and the crossbowmen in the rear, rushed up to tear through the Sui army's defense. ”

Knock knock knock!!

Hundreds of war drums sounded in unison, and the 30,000 forward troops of the Xia army, under the command of Zhu Di, marched towards the Sui army in an orderly manner.

Seeing that the Xia army had approached two hundred paces ahead, Yang Yeling, who had already retreated to the command of the Chinese army, waved his flag and shouted: "Eight bows and crossbows suppress!" ”

Yang Ye gave an order, and the infantry of the Sui army, which was originally on the front line, suddenly scattered to both sides, and nearly a hundred crossbows were displayed in front of the Xia army.

Sou! Whoosh!!

The crossbow arrows nearly a zhang long pounced into the Xia army's formation, which was slowly advancing with a terrible roar that pierced the sky. The huge impact force caused the crossbow arrows to break through the defenses of the sword and shield men in front of the Xia army in an instant, and the screams rang out in a loud voice.

"Damn it, the crossbowmen return fire!"

Zhu Di, who was in command of the former army, was shot by a sharp arrow in his crotch mount, fell off the horse and fell into a gold star, shook his head twice to sober himself up, and said angrily.

It's just that the Xia Saber and Shield Men were instantly broken by the Eight Bow Crossbows, and the archers who followed closely behind the Sword and Shield Men also suffered heavy losses. The crossbowman who was accidentally shot by a stray arrow was quickly dragged down by his companion for treatment, and the eight-bow crossbow he operated would also be replenished with a new crossbowman in an instant.

Zhu Di, who was helped up by several personal soldiers, finally saw the situation clearly and quickly made a judgment, "Give the order, the cavalry will attack and outflank from the flanks." ”

After Wang Gui, who was pressing the formation in the rear, saw the Lingqi, he waved his big hand and led the six thousand elite cavalry behind him to quickly divide into two roads, detour from both sides, and kill the eight-bow crossbow phalanx in front of the Sui army.

Seeing the roundabout Xia army cavalry, Yang Ye couldn't help but sneer: "Sure enough, as the old man expected, I want to copy the back road and destroy the old man's eight-bow crossbow, dream!" Then he shouted an order: "Order, the long lance hands of the two wings are ready!" ”

Dadada!!

The sound of horses' hooves beating the earth like muffled thunder, and the cavalry of the Xia army led by Wang Gui was getting closer and closer to the front of the Sui army, and it was already less than two or three hundred paces away. Wang Gui was so excited that his heart was about to mention Sang's eyes, and he clenched the big knife in his hand and prepared to kill.

But at this moment, the mutation was abrupt, and the Xia army cavalry that rushed to the forefront was suddenly thrown out one after another for some reason, falling to the point of bleeding, and the screams continued.

"Trapping a horse pit, it's a trapping horse pit!"

The follow-up Xia army war horses quickly found out the reason, but how could the war horses that were already rushing still stop, they could only watch themselves just step on their comrades who fell to the ground all the way, and finally fell into the pit.

"Kill!"

The two wings of the Sui army, which had long been ready for action, shouted and stepped forward, stabbing to death the cavalry of the Xia army who were trapped in the pit or fell outside, and in just half an hour, five or six hundred cavalry had lost their lives.

"Quick, get out!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Gui immediately turned his horse's head and fled towards his own formation in embarrassment.

Seeing the cavalry of the Xia army that had been defeated all the way, Yang Ye smiled slightly, and said secretly: "The general and Li Yaoshi are really gods, they dug horse traps on both sides of this camp early, it seems that they expected this to happen very early!" ”

At the same time, the infantry brigade led by Zhu Di was also suppressed by the rain of arrows of the Sui army, and after losing nearly 4,000 people, the Xia infantry stopped the pace of attack and began to show signs of rout and escape. Soon, the scale became larger and larger, and in the end, except for the dozens of soldiers led by Zhu Di, the rest of the soldiers had already lost their armor and rushed all the way towards the Xia army's array.

Zhu Di waved his saber angrily and shouted loudly: "Bastard, don't escape, kill me, resist the crossbow arrows of the Sui army and rush forward!" ”

In order to curb the trend of rout and escape, Zhu Di was even more ruthless and personally beheaded three fleeing Xia soldiers, but unfortunately it did not play any role at all, and the fleeing Xia army just avoided Zhu Di and fled backwards.

"General, let's go, or all the crossbow arrows will be shot at us, and we will definitely die!" Several of the soldiers wept and persuaded in mournful voices.

"Bastard, dare to disturb the morale of the army, I will cut you!"

Zhu Di was suddenly enlightened when he heard this, and he was about to cut it off with a sword, when a crossbow arrow suddenly broke through the air, and the saber that Zhu Di had just waved out was in the middle of it, only to hear the sound of "clang", Zhu Di only felt that his five fingers were numb, and the blood between his fingers flowed out wantonly, and the saber flew out of his hand.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

Zhu Di was so frightened by this stray arrow that his face turned like earth, he no longer insisted, turned around and left.

Dou Jiande was furious when he saw the defeat of the former army, and shouted loudly: "Fan Yuan, who ordered the second formation, must block the rout of the front army, and must not let them disrupt the formation." In addition, Zhu Di, the general of the defeated army, was tied up alone. ”

Not long after, several of Fan Yuan's personal soldiers tied up Zhu Di. At this time, Zhu Di had become very embarrassed, his helmet had been lost at some point, his hair was scattered, his face was gray, and he said in a mournful voice: "King, if it is not that the last general is incompetent, it is really the defense of the Sui army that is really rigorous." In addition, the last general had just taken over from General Wang Fubao to command the front army, and the soldiers did not listen to the command of the last general at all, so they only fled for their lives! ”

Cao Dan and Gao Yaxian, the generals of the Xia army, listened to Zhu Di's defense, and immediately interceded for Zhu Di: "The king, it is not good for the army to behead the generals before the battle, please give General Zhu another chance and let him make meritorious contributions." ”

Strategist Ling Jing approached Dou Jiande and whispered: "King, Zhu Yuanzhang is now confronting Luo Yi in the Zhuo County area, if you kill Zhu Di at this time, if Zhu Yuanzhang surrenders to Luo Yi in anger, Hebei will be in danger!" ”
