Chapter 229: Inferiority

With the passage of time, the heavy cavalry of Tiefutu was about to break through the Yuan army's formation and arrive at the rear army where Yuan Shu was!

"Supporting the ...... of the Army"

"Pull close! Move closer to the rear......"

The generals of the Yuan army, Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui, saw the shortcomings of their own side and began to command their troops and horses to retreat to the rear.

But there was one person who didn't leave, and he was Yuan Shu Liu Xun, who continued to command soldiers and horses in the Chinese army and stabilize the situation.

Liu Xun is among Yuan Shu's generals, belonging to the most talented and strategic generals, when it comes to commanding troops, analyzing the situation, and arranging troops, Liu Xun should rank first in Yuan Shu's army.

Liu Xun calmly observed the situation on the battlefield, and he knew in his heart that in fact, this war, with Yuan Shu's strength, could actually be completely won.

The Jinling Army is indeed well-equipped and has sufficient weapons, but this does not mean that the soldiers of Jinling City cannot be killed.

No matter how sharp the knife is, it will have a blunt mouth after wielding it for a long time, and there is no strong physique, and no matter how sharp the knife is, it will not be long to wield.

No matter how much armor there is, it only has more chances to save your life, but it doesn't mean that you can't be killed, and you can still pierce through the elite soldiers who are good at fighting.

No matter how fierce the heavy armored horses are, they are not without weaknesses, these heavy cavalry are invincible, but the speed is too slow, and there is no room and residual strength to turn around and charge, the staying power is not strong, and after a wave of charges, there will basically be no more excessive threat.

Such cavalry seems to be brave and invincible on the surface, but compared with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, or the White Horse Yicong, which are extremely fast, extremely durable, and bloodthirsty and good at fighting......

The heavy cavalry of Jinling City, so to speak, is still not on the same level at all.

Liu Xun sighed, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious to blame the lord in his heart.

The army of Nanyang, basically recruited in recent months, hasty drills, unbearable responsibility, these 100,000 horses, if they can be handed over to themselves for two years of careful training, to deal with the Jinling army of the pottery merchants, Liu Xun feels that at least more than seventy percent of the certainty can be defeated.

Even if Yuan Shu did not treat the Sun soldiers and horses badly, and equipped the Sun soldiers and horses with the best grain and shields, in today's battle, with the Sun family's army, they could also start the battle with the pottery merchants.

The general's heart is still too high.

……

……

At this time, Yuan Shu had already regained his heart, because he began to panic a little.

Yuan Shu looked at the heavy cavalry that had broken through the battle formation of the Chinese army and was moving towards him little by little, his face became extremely pale, and he couldn't help swinging, unable to say words in his mouth.

Although Yuan Lao Er is not a mortal, he is also stunned in the face of this situation.

First the flying stones in the sky, and then the sudden, the heavy cavalry that did not expect them to break through their own formation, and the infantry of Jinling followed its gap to cover the killing, and their own recruits were completely unable to control this situation due to their lack of training.

And the battle formation of their own Chinese army, under the attack of those slow-moving, but extremely strong monster iron cavalry, lost the will to fight, the sergeants are like the tide, scattered in all directions, and there are constantly soldiers falling under the swords, guns and sticks of those iron horses, but more soldiers are trampled by the opponent's horse hooves because they dare not fight, even so, there are still more soldiers still scattered on both sides, in order to be able to avoid the march route of these iron horses......

However, these 800 Iron Floating Slaughter, in the process of charging, also produced huge losses.

Because the speed was too slow, in the process of charging, many soldiers were pulled off their horses by the Yuan military weapons that interfered on both sides.

Once they fell under their horses, those heavily armored soldiers would be tightly surrounded in the middle by Han Hao's Yuan soldiers, with nowhere to escape, and they would be stabbed into pulp in an instant.

From the beginning of the heavy formation to the end, at least three hundred heavy cavalry had been dragged off their horses.

But even if their companions fell into the dust, the rest of the men and horses resolutely obeyed their responsibilities and continued to gallop forward.

Until they can rush in front of Yuan Shu.

Suddenly, Yuan Shu's eyes suddenly widened!

Although the distance is still far away, the passage opened by the Iron Cavalry is coming in the direction where it is!

Although the speed of the heavy cavalry was very slow, it did not pause in the slightest, little by little, little by little, crushing towards its own position!

"Pottery thief! A certain and you oath incompatible! Yuan Shu stomped his foot on the chariot fiercely, and then shouted loudly: "Prepare the horse!" Quick, get me a horse! ”

At this time, if you don't prepare a horse, if you want to run away again, it's too late.

At this time, if Yuan Shu was firmly guarding the battlefield, ordering his subordinates to call the generals, sit in command, and boost morale, he might not be able to annihilate this heavy cavalry that was charging and rushing towards him.

However, Yuan Shu couldn't afford to gamble.

The lives of the fourth and third dukes, in Yuan Shu's own opinion, were much more precious than these cheap cavalrymen who only knew how to charge blindly.

The son of a daughter can't sit down, and Yuan Shu doesn't need to gamble with his precious life and the cheap life of ants in his eyes.

The subordinates moved the war horse over, Yuan Shu didn't even care about the sword, while straightening the helmet that was crooked when Shicai was panicked, he hurriedly stepped on the war horse, took the whip handed by his subordinates, waved the horse whip, and hurried towards the west.

And Yuan Shu's pro-army and hand-in-command did not dare to slack off, and followed Yuan Shu to the west and retreated.

On the battlefield, the Sun family army led by Sun Ben, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others was overwhelmed by the bombardment of Jin Lingjun and Yuan Shujun, and had already withdrawn from the flank, while the rest of the Yuan army soldiers in the midfield also had the idea of retreating at this moment because of Yuan Shu himself and Shuai Qi's retreat.

The main generals are not fighting, and these soldiers are still playing balls.

Yuan Shuzhongjun, who had just been rectified by Liu Xun and intended to fight back, was once again in an unfavorable passive situation.

Liu Xun's heart is so angry!

He secretly scolded Yuan Shu in his heart for not being as good as the potter's child who was less than twenty years old!

The potter was not very bold, so in this case, he preferred to hide in the dock rather than make trouble for his soldiers.

Yuan Shu is too annoying, when it comes to commanding troops, he may be stronger than the pottery merchants, but it is estimated that the strength is limited.

If you don't have the determination to die, don't come out and make a fuss, okay?

Come out, don't go back!

It's good this time, forcing you to pretend, but you don't have to bear it! Then you're out and have a ball?!

The Yuan army, which had just been brought back to the right path by Liu Xun, was once again in a slump because of the temporary retreat of the main general and the rear Daxu Banner.

In this way, the infantry led by Xu Chu and Xu Rong was given a greater chance.

Taking advantage of this new round of riots, the Jinling infantry once again launched a more fierce attack on Yuan's army.

Xu Huang saw that he was about to rush out of the rear formation, but Yuan Shu actually fled, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.

He entered the army this time with a general who beheaded Yuan Shu!

If you let him go, it won't be a failure!

While Xu Huang was killing, he ordered the heavy cavalry captain who followed him to temporarily command Tiefutu to continue to charge on his behalf, while he led a hundred heavy cavalry, changed direction, and pursued straight in the direction that Yuan Shu had fled.

In any case, you have to leave Yuan Shu for whatever you say today!

It's a pity that Xu Huang's heavy cavalry is too slow, and looking at Yuan Shu who is running away, he chases a lot at all.

Moreover, at this juncture, another person flashed out and blocked Xu Huang's way......

In the chaotic army that was shocked by Xu Huang's momentum and fled in all directions, a team suddenly flashed out to block the way.

The general at the head, with a strong waist and a round body wearing a horn helmet, held a three-pointed two-edged knife, shouted violently: "I am under the command of the general, and the Zhonglang general Ji Ling is also!" If you want to hurt my lord, you must pass a certain level first! ”

Xu Huang didn't care who the person in front of him was at the moment, so he just scolded in a cold tone: "Get out of the way!" ”

Then, he saw the Kaishan giant axe in his hand and slashed it out towards Ji Ling.

Ji Ling was not afraid, he mustered up all his strength, picked up his arms, and brandished a fifty-pound three-pointed two-edged knife and rushed towards Xu Huang.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, Xu Huang's momentum was finally stopped by Ji Ling.

The two of them shook on the horseback, and almost fell off the horse with a misplaced move, Xu Huang stretched out his hand to restrain the horse, looked up at Yuan Shujiechen's back, and sighed regretfully.

It's a pity that the leader of the enemy army was let go!

Xu Huang's face was gloomy, and he turned his head to stare at Ji Ling coldly.

Although the equipment of the Iron Floating Slaughter is conducive to charging and fighting, if it is a one-on-one fighter, it will suffer some losses.

At least in terms of the flexibility of the horses, Xu Huang's war horse is definitely inferior to Ji Ling at this moment because he is wearing heavy armor.

But it has come to this, and it is impossible not to fight.

Jinling fierce generals, against the famous generals of Jianghuai, a battlefield duel, one with an axe, one with a three-pointed knife, like two tigers, began to collide with each other.

The giant axe and the three-pointed knife collided together again in the air, and the two of them made another move against each other, and it was still a five-five start.

Ji Ling and Xu Huang are both powerful generals, in addition to martial arts on weekdays, the most conceited is the strength of the body, and the best thing is to compare strength.

The two of them fought again on horseback and decided to make another move!

This time, the two of them are even more brave.

"Bang!" This collision made a loud sound of gold and iron, and it was still a dead end.

Three tricks to fight, the two of them are still up and down.

Xu Huang took a deep breath, looked at Ji Ling, who was excited and eager to try, and knew that with this person blocking the way, he wanted to take off the head of Yuan Shu today, I am afraid it would be impossible.

Xu Huang has the heart to compete with Ji Ling at this moment, but at this moment, he is deep in the rear of the enemy formation, and it is not the right time to entangle with Ji Ling, the second is that Yuan Shu escaped, the commander absconded, and the retreat of his army was also immediate.

The third is that this Ji Ling's bravery, it seems that he is not under himself, and now he is sitting down with a heavy war vest, and he has been running for a long time, if he fights with Ji Ling's life and death, in the situation of the war horse, I am afraid that he will suffer some losses.

However, the top priority is to get rid of the reckless man in front of him, once this person is entangled with him, it will be difficult to distinguish the winner in a short period of time.

Thinking of this, Xu Huang suddenly laughed, and said, "Thief, you are the master of my family!" Where Yuan Shu fled, there was an ambush arranged in advance by my family's mansion, and you fought with me here, hehe, presumably at this time, the head of Yuan Shu's thief had been cut off by the ambush soldiers and sent to the Wet Whisker Dock! ”

As soon as Ji Ling heard this, his rugged face suddenly turned red, he stared at Xu Huang tightly with his eyebrows, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "What you said, is it true or false?" ”

Xu Huang sneered: "Your lord is dead, don't get off your horse and surrender quickly, see how much courage you still have, I can recommend you to be a halberd under the tent of Taofu Jun, or I won't bury your brute ......."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Ji Ling "spit" at the ground fiercely, and said angrily: "Fart!" You wait, after a certain family rescues my master, and then come and tear up your stinky mouth! ”

After saying that, Ji Ling hurriedly turned his horse's head, led his soldiers and horses, and went straight to the direction where Yuan Shu fled in panic.

And Xu Huang also sighed, feeling in his heart that the situation of Shicai was quite dangerous, if he was really entangled by Ji Ling, he was really dangerous at the moment.

Xu Huang secretly scolded "stupid", then turned the horse's head and led a hundred heavy horses to turn over and find a way.

At this time, the Yuan army had suffered a heavy blow because of a series of sudden changes and fright, but the most fatal thing was that Yuan Shu withdrew from the battle, and the Jinling army was defeated by several surprise means.

In this situation, which had completely lost the will to fight, Zhang Xun, Liu Xun and other commanding generals could only withdraw their troops in Mingjin, arrange for the soldiers and horses under their command to quickly withdraw from the battlefield, and left the battlefield range of the Whisker Dock.

However, although the Jinling army won, many of the chances of victory were in the hands of continuous surprises, but if you want to eat the huge army of Yuan Shu's army, the ability of the Jinling army is still completely impossible, so it does not dare to follow and force each other.

After all, under this battle, the family wealth accumulated in the past year has been displayed in front of Yuan Jun's eyes, and there are no strange things that can make the other party panic.

The persistent pursuit is only afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses.

Accepting what is good is the fundamental purpose of the Jinling Army.

The battle of Wet Whisker Dock slowly came to an end with the victory of the Jinling army of the potters and the successive defeats and retreats of Yuan Shu's army.

……

……

Yuan Shu's handsome tent.

"Smack~~!"

Yuan Shu threw a wine lord on the ground heavily, and his face was full of terrifying horror.

"100,000 horses? 100,000 people! It actually made people repel! ”

Yuan Shu viciously glanced back and forth at the scowling generals standing below, and said angrily: "Yuan's heavenly soldiers pressed the realm, and he couldn't lift his head after being beaten by the Tao family's children, and he lost so many people and horses, but he didn't even touch the edge of the whisker dock?" What a good battle! The fight makes the world look at Yuan as an ant in the future! ”

The generals below were silent when they heard the words.

Yuan Shu roared angrily: "Who led the way first!" Go back and check it out for me, find out, and don't spare it! ”

Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui, look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do at this time......

If the two of them obey the generals now, they will go up and cut Yuan Shu on the spot now, isn't it a bit bad?

No one is wrong in this battle, and it is understandable that the Sun family army was defeated by the Jinling army under the condition that the generals were newly mourned, their morale was low, and their food and equipment were insufficient.

The generals and new sergeants of Yuan Shujun are not wrong, after all, the elite equipment of the Jinling Army, as well as those various sharp weapons and heavy armor, these people did not know in advance, if they knew that this was the case, as long as they changed their tactics and strategies, even if they could not win the opponent, they would never lose so faceless as they did today.

Moreover, before Liu Xun went on the Eastern Expedition, he had already explained the pros and cons to Yuan Shu clearly, but he was stubborn and did not listen to good advice, and now that he has lost the battle, he has come to blame these generals......

Such an unreasonable lord really has nowhere to find it.

The generals under Yuan Shu's command did not speak, and the tent fell into a dead silence for a while.
