The sky was gray and the rain was pouring endless mud. Coupled with the depressions and swamps formed by the many hilly terrain of the Huaixi generation, the 5th Battalion of the Lu'an Army almost couldn't move, so they stopped marching an hour earlier and chose to repair on the spot in the storm.

These guys have no heart, and they don't know what's going to happen. Because their main general, Yang Jian, had already left the team to help Wang Yan deliver the letter.

There was another ghostly unit of the dead that couldn't march anymore. So although they were more concerned about the whereabouts of Wang Yan's headquarters, they had no choice now.

After losing Wang Yan's subordinates, even if they already carried the order to kill arbitrarily on the spot, they reformulated their tactics: eliminate the rabble of the sixth battalion and cut off one of Wang Yan's hands.

"What the hell! What's wrong! ”

When the fifth battalion cursed the ghost weather in the rainstorm, many people exclaimed.

In the blink of an eye, it was besieged by a forbidden army with two battalions and five hundred people.

And this is a cavalry unit.

"Hey, hey! Big guy, calm down, we are also a forbidden army! Don't have any misunderstandings and delay everyone's future. ”

The head of a fifth battalion looked at the other party and saw that the other party was also a forbidden army uniform, so what he thought of was not "Shuzhou territory should not have a forbidden army except for Lao Tzu, and there must be demons when things go wrong", but hurriedly stepped forward to explain while setting up waist cards in the heavy rain.

The reason is that the equipment and armor of the fifth battalion of the forbidden army have been allocated to the Ma Jinsi Tiger Head Battalion for redressing, and the fifth battalion at this time seems to be a group of fleeing civilians.

"Bold! Dare to pretend to be the forbidden army of the imperial court! ”

The reprimand of an officer on the other side was very decisive and crisp, and he directly cut off the head of the head of the head who stepped forward to show his waist card with a knife nearby.

The blood was not evident in the heavy rain, and the sergeants of the fifth battalion were only shocked, still not fully awake.

In fact, there were already quite a few people who got up in a violent temper and wanted to curse and resist, but there were still some officers in the fifth battalion who were shouting "calm down and don't cause misunderstandings" or something. They still think that the other party killed people because Lao Tzu did not wear the clothes of the forbidden army, but they did not think: In fact, it is not strange to kill the forbidden army, but the people who wear civilian clothes cannot be killed, this is the rule of the Great Song Dynasty.

So when several stability maintenance officers of the 5th Battalion scolded everyone to be calm, and the people of the 5th Battalion sat on the ground again like grandsons, the massacre officially began.

They were surrounded by twice the number of cavalry of the opponent in a circle, and began to wander around and kill like mincing meat.

The fifth battalion, which was unequipped and scattered without resistance and screaming, the trapped people scattered in all directions to try to escape for their lives, but they fell into the arms of the other party, but those who tried to rush out were more easily chopped and chopped vegetables by the other party.

More than thirty people died in an instant.

Some of the officers hiding in the inner core were crying "why".

However, there are several veterans of the ten generals in public who are Yang generals who followed Yang Wenguang from the Western Army, who are more experienced and bold, and hurriedly shouted: "With the reputation of the Yang generals, everyone should not rush again, shrink and hold the circle, use the bodies of the dead brothers as shields, and try to find opportunities to take their spears to counterattack, this cavalry is only half a bottle of vinegar, and the skills are very poor, in such a muddy situation, they have to fight with cavalry, and the balance will be worse." Follow me, and it will be possible to open the gap and rush out! ”

After the so-called emergency medical treatment, the stability maintenance officers cried and shouted that it was useless, everyone was willing to listen to the words of these old fritters, so they quickly changed from a state of scattered breakout to a contraction strategy.

Under the command of a few very obscene veterans, they now began to block the opponent's carbine with the corpses of their dead brothers, although it was useless for the time being, but it also prevented the rapid expansion of casualties.

The experienced generals of the Yang family are different, and they who have followed Di Qing and Yang Wenguang through many battle formations understand that preventing casualties is to preserve morale. Because Di Qing, the god of war, personally said that if the battle is damaged for a certain time, no matter what the army is, it will completely collapse. In the first phase, as long as the casualties are controlled, it will be considered a victory.

"Kill, kill, kill! This is a group of chaotic bandits who have gathered together, with bad intentions, pretending to be the royal forbidden army to kill Ben General! ”

Since the knife has been opened, of course, if the other party is unsuccessful, Chengren has no way to retreat, so as not to leave a living. This is the boundary of Shuzhou, and these dead people's pots can even be put on the heads of the Wang Yanbu of the Lu'an Army who has a military mission.

So in the gloomy environment of the storm, this cavalry with nearly 500 people followed the encirclement and fought to the death.

"Continue to use corpses as meat shields. Follow my footsteps and move slowly, if you can successfully get close to the swamp next to it, this stubborn cavalry will be half useless, and the old men will have a better chance of survival. ”

The veterans continued to direct the battle in the core, taking advantage of the fact that the other party did not dare to stay alive and was tied to the battlefield, and began to move slowly to the left.

Poof—

At a certain moment, when an officer on the other side stabbed his spear over, under the influence of heavy rain, this guy's technique was too slow, the cavalry skills were too poor, and the balance was flawed at a glance, so a Yang family veteran pinched the gun before the other party collected the gun, and used the skill to pull it violently.

"Oh, I'll go!"

The little officer of the enemy army screamed and was dragged off his horse.

Whoosh –

When the other people's spears stabbed in, the Yang family put the old soldier on the fallen guy up, and this guy was stabbed to death by his own people, and at the same time, the veteran pulled out the waist knife of the dead ghost and slashed it on the butt of the ownerless war horse.

The warhorses, which were not very good at "tuning", were frightened and went on a rampage, bringing a certain degree of confusion to the enemy's military formation.

At this point, the fifth battalion, which seemed to be mortal, not only had its first weapon, but also managed to move quickly and drag the cavalry into the "mud pond".

Seeing that in this case, they all turned over and killed the other party's people and seized the opponent's weapons, everyone was shocked by these veterans, and under the mind of wanting to live, more and more people participated in the resistance.

Of course, it was still a completely downwind beaten situation, but with the help of the weather, the situation has begun to improve after dragging this group of cavalry into the quagmire......

In the heavy rain environment, on the hills five hundred steps away, the Tiger Head Battalion had been in ambush for a while.

After a few cautious reconnaissances outside the line of sight, I learned about the situation, and I didn't expect to catch them at the scene. It's definitely a rebellion.

The strangulation of a group of people in civilian uniforms without saying a word is more serious than the rebels' attack on the officers and soldiers.

Ma Jinxi and others are popular, but they are also very nervous. As for Mu Guiying, he had already been indignant and urged several times, but it was not until he saw with his own eyes that the fifth battalion was not completely chaotic, and successfully dragged the cavalry into the quagmire, and the terrifying divine arm bow could not be deployed, that Wang Yan agreed to Aunt Mu Guiying's assault tactics.

"To kill a thief is to be righteous. In the name of the eldest elder Wang's family, this ya-nei officially designated these mad elements as rebels, against one person and one type of crime! The sin is so heinous that there is no forgiveness! There is no need to worry about their forbidden army clothing, on behalf of my father Wang Anshi, I officially appoint you and others as the tiger head battalion of the royal forbidden army, and kill thieves bravely! ”

Wang Yan danced and issued the battle order. Khan, of course, wants to take advantage of my father's gimmick of Wang Anshi and directly designate these people as rebels, which is why he became famous.

Ma Jinsi and the others boiled like a group of berserkers. Once street rat hooligans, they are now a royal prohibitionist. Of course, Ma Jinsi also became the head of the army, so Lao Ma was also very excited to bewitch his subordinates.

"Rest easy."

After Mu Guiying kicked Ma Jinxi to jump up with a very calm kick, he made the final arrangements: "The Wuwei Army has a divine arm bow, with a range of about four hundred steps, and we are now within the range of about five hundred steps. Taking advantage of the bleak environment and the cover of the heavy rain, we had no intention of calculating, and they were in a tense battle, so they found that the distance between us and us was two hundred to two hundred and fifty. The resistance of the 5th Battalion was obviously commanded by the veterans of our Yang family, and their experience would drag the enemy back, resulting in the enemy's inability to timely and effectively stretch out their arms and bows for group shooting. So, this process may be able to earn us a distance of fifty to a hundred paces. ”

At this point, Mu Guiying stepped on his war horse in the torrential rain and shouted: "That is to say, according to the experience of this general, during a hundred steps, we cannot effectively attack the other party, but we are facing the first wave of the enemy's divine arm bow. But it doesn't matter, after the release of the first wave of Divine Arm Crossbows, and with the cooperation of the fifth brother battalion, it is difficult for them to complete the exchange of arrows for the second wave of blocking within a hundred paces of cavalry. ”

"Is there a way to reduce casualties and thus resist them?"

Mu Guiying looked around and said, "Yes, follow in my footsteps, use the sharp knife formation I ordered you earlier, I am the first, try my best to block the threat of the first wave of Divine Arm Bow to our eighty cavalry." There will definitely be casualties in this process, but on the battlefield is a soldier, you can't retreat, if anyone retreats, causing our army to scatter and chaos and cause other brothers to be injured, I believe in this general, I will only kill you, but Wang Yan is not as good at talking as me, you have to think about your family. ”

"Understood!" Ma Jinsi and the others yelled neatly.

Mu Guiying said: "The duty of the eighty cavalry is to follow the footsteps of the general, after withstanding the first wave of crossbow arrows, the time difference between them and breaking their bow and arrow defense circle, and the other one hundred and thirty infantry, use scattered formations to stand by four hundred and fifty paces away, don't get too close and die from the bow god arm bow mistakenly killed." After our 80th cavalry successfully broke through the enemy's bow and arrow defense circle, the infantry team will be the fastest to enter the battle assault, remember, if you enter the battle one second later, the pressure on the brother battalion and our cavalry department will be increased by one point. ”

"Understood!" The guys who had been selected in advance to become cavalry mounted one after another.

The predecessors of these people were hooligans, not ordinary people, although they didn't have cavalry skills, but it was okay to just run fast on horseback. Mu Guiying's order is also very simple, this time it is not a cavalry battle, but just using the speed advantage of the cavalry to drag the opponent's crossbow arrow defense circle for the main force of the assault.

Casualties were acceptable, but as soon as the infantry officially entered the battle circle, the cavalry dragged in the mud could be eaten.
