Stop moving, archers prepare! ”

As long as Liu Wenxiu's light order was given, the Pingyu battalion immediately stopped the charge, and the front team stopped about fifty steps in front of the shield array of the Qing army.

Next, they began to appreciate the damage caused by the rain of arrows fired by their own side to the Qing army.

The bows and arrows fired by these veterans have a great advantage over ordinary Ming troops, each bow is more than one stone, and they stand at such a close distance from the Qing army.

The arrows easily pierced the cotton armor of the Qing spearmen behind the shield array, and for the first time, the soldiers in Li Guohan's army array were shot and fell as if they had been cut grass. But there were still more fallen soldiers who pulled out or even broke the shafts of arrows on their bodies, stood up again, and rose again to fight.

This is really an ordeal, and for Li Guohan, there is no second way for him to choose at the moment. If he didn't want to be cut and eaten piece by piece by the Ming army, which was several times larger than himself, because the formation was too scattered, then the rain of arrows in front of him was the pain he had to bear.

Fortunately, they are all armor soldiers, and fortunately, they are really strong troops. Without either of these two conditions, they will surely end up doubling casualties and the collapse of the entire army. The bow and arrow still need to be left for Meng Qiaofang in Xi'an City, and Liu Wenxiu will not think that as long as Li Guohan is completely annihilated, he will win the victory.

Next, Liu Wenxiu dispatched the hook and sickle spears in the formation to attack Li Guohan's military formation, and these hook and sickle spears would penetrate through the gaps and weak points of the Qing army's shield array, and then several people would pull the spears. This can easily destroy and scatter the shield array of the Qing army. The Qing army is struggling in the forest of guns, which is the poignancy of the spear breaking the armor, and it is also the wail after the separation of bone and flesh.

The sword and shield hand that lost the shield is not called the sword and shield hand, and the Qing army's torn shield array faced the destruction of the Ming army's long weapon, and after a while, they all fled backwards with a miserable howl.

And the pikemen of the Qing army also took over the shield array and the sword and shield hand, and swapped positions before and after, and the two sides began to exchange real lives for lives.

Liu Wenxiu's Pingyu battalion suffered heavy casualties, but Li Guohan's casualties were even greater, and this situation no longer allowed Meng Qiaofang in Xi'an City to continue to wait and watch the battle.

If he continues to wait like this, then what can describe Meng Qiaofang is not his patience, but his cruelty to his comrades.

The rain finally began to fall, and it was already noon, but the sun was still not visible in the sky.

From a distance, the red spread on the battlefield was no longer light, but the blood of the martyrs of the two armies, which finally began to merge into a stream at this moment.

The rain on the Xianyang Bridge is like hanging, and the fishing boats are separated by 10,000 points.

It is still like the spring water color of Dongting, and Xiaoyun will enter Yueyang sky.

The door of the ancient capital of Chang'an finally opened, and thousands of armor soldiers walked out of it, seriously saying that they did not come out, but came out of the horse. More strictly speaking, they walked out of the south gate of Xi'an City-Yongning Gate.

At this moment, the Yongning Gate rushed out of Meng Qiaofang's 7,000 heavy armored cavalry, and this large group of cavalry went around to the south in a circle full of smoke and dust, jumped over the Ming army and entered the Zhong Department, treated them as decorations, and went straight to the back of Liu Wenxiu's Pingying camp to kill all the way.

Liu Wenxiu's fighting style consumed Li Guohan's vital strength at a high speed, and the first thing Meng Qiaofang could think of was to kill his rear, as long as Liu Wenxiu's attack was contained, the Qing army would have the initiative on the battlefield.

Therefore, Meng Qiaofang in Xi'an City regarded Liu Wenxiu's Pingyu camp as the most valuable prey.

The 7,000 cavalry was personally commanded by Meng Qiaofang, the trilateral governor of the Qing Dynasty, who left Xi'an to his lieutenant Zhao Guangrui.

The rain was heavier, it was washing the robes of the soldiers of the two armies in the battle, and Liu Wenxiu of the Ming army was dominating at this time, he wanted to take advantage of a heavy rain to wash away the resentment in his heart.

Who would have thought that the sky would not fulfill people's wishes, this rain may just be to make Liu Wenxiu more sober.

Liu Wenxiu was leading the army to forge ahead, when he suddenly heard the rear army shouting: "Enemy attack, there is enemy attack!" The enemy's cavalry is coming! ”

The voice was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, piercing Liu Wenxiu's eardrums and hitting his mind. Liu Wenxiu didn't have a chance, let alone a choice, he shouted to the whole army: "Quickly form a formation, get closer together!" The spear is raised forward, stabilize the formation, and block the cavalry from colliding! ”

In the face of the Pingyu camp that no longer attacked but was shrinking and preparing to deal with Meng Qiaofang's 7,000 iron cavalry, how could Li Guohan let go of such an opportunity, he also shouted: "Brothers! Win or lose here! Reinforcements have arrived, and the whole army is rushing with me! Trapped! "Li Guohan's whole army shouted 'trapped', and rushed towards Liu Wenxiu, and he also put Ma Jinzhong aside.

The rain stabbed on Ma Jinzhong's back, like a fire, the insult to him was small, Liu Wenxiu's army was attacked by two ways at this time, once he, the first-class main force of the Ming army of the Northern Expedition, was lost, even if there were more Ming troops in Guanzhong, they could be labeled and ready to sell.

"I can't do much! Let's go! The Eastern Route Army turned back and adjusted its objectives..... The whole army launches a total attack! "The three words 'total attack' have long been shouted by Ma Jinzhong, but the soldiers of the Ming army have heard it so well that they have forgotten their life and death.

Ma Jinzhong's entire army was enraged by the Qing army's ignorance of them at this time, and even more enraged by the corpses of those comrades who died in the morning's battle on the ground.

The corpse was in front of his eyes, and he had just been trampled under the feet of the Qing army, and these factors came together to stimulate the most primitive bestiality of Ma Jinzhong and his soldiers.

This group of warriors who burst out of their beastly nature fought and screamed in tears.

Meng Qiaofang's cavalry rushed towards Liu Wenxiu's 5,000 rear army in a conical formation, and these recruits in Liu Wenxiu's rear had never encountered so many cavalry rushing towards him.

The impact of these cavalry on them is tearing the nerves of this group of recruits.

Before this torrent of steel is about to hit itself, the feeling of fate that must wait is the torment of the soul; The sound of horses' hooves shook the earth, and the regular rumble would continue to penetrate the chests of the infantrymen. Let them reach their limits on their endurance.

Fortunately, the wait was not long, and it was not just death that they were waiting for, it was more like duckweed being beaten against the beach by waves.

Their numbers were so small that almost half of the 5,000 people in the rear of the Pingying camp were killed in just one shock wave.

Fortunately, due to Liu Wenxiu's order, the density of the Pinglu camp army formation increased a lot, and although it suffered heavy losses, the rear army of the Pinglu camp still exchanged a lot of lives for the reduced horse speed of the Qing army.
