Chapter 198: Death's Scythe

In a few breaths, the rear of the Broken Army, within a radius of a hundred zhang, turned into a sea of fire.

"Ah...... Fire ......" Countless Japanese cavalry warriors were smashed on their bodies by thin clay pots, and they instantly turned into burning people.

The samurai of the Japanese army fell off their horses one after another, and plunged headlong into the punishment hell of the fire of damnation, and countless fire men wailed, shouted, rolled, and begged for mercy.

Some samurai struggled to wield their dying swords, but they slashed at their fellow Japanese samurai, resulting in the lives of their own families in advance.

The fire of the bones does not burn out, and it will never be extinguished, and the war horse that is on fire is completely uncontrollable and scurries around, but the Japanese warriors who are still on fire are also ignited.

Although Yang Lie had seen the power of this "magic fire pot" when he was in Shiyàn, and saw the scene in front of the eyes of the roasted living people, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and sighed: "Amazing, really amazing, teacher, you brought out the hellfire." ”

Li Zhongyi did not pay attention to Yang Lie, but decisively ordered the flag officer to order Liao Shanhe's cavalry troops to attack.

Liao Shanhe, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, led the rookie cavalry under his command, urging the war horses under his crotch, gradually increasing, and roaring.

Taking advantage of the chaos of the Japanese people, Liao Shanhe rushed to the front of the team with a spear in his hand. The rookie cavalry was firmly tied to the horseback, overcoming the panic of not sitting firmly, holding spears in their hands, following behind Liao Shanhe, and fiercely plunged into the ranks of the Japanese cavalry.

Liao Shanhe felt that the enemy in front of him was already close at hand, so he decisively sent the spear in his hand forward.

After the spear left the palm of his hand, Liao Shanhe hurriedly drew the knife in his hand. Swept across the neck of a Japanese cavalry warrior.

Liao Shanhe only felt a violent shock in his palm, and his whole arm swung back, and the sharp blade just cut off the head of the Japanese warrior.

Li Zhongyi's cavalry unit quickly penetrated into the ranks of the Japanese army, like a warship sailing on the sea, fiercely plowing a bloody wave. Countless cavalry warriors of the Japanese army, who were caught off guard, had already been chopped off their horses before they understood what was going on.

Although Liao Shanhe repeatedly emphasized in advance that when the spear was about to penetrate the enemy's body, he must let go immediately.

However, due to the short period of time the cavalry unit of the Goryeo camp, it was established. Some cavalry warriors were so nervous that they had forgotten this crucial assault essential.

As a result, several good men of the big men fell off their horses when their spears pierced the bodies of the Japanese warriors. was trampled to death by his own war horse.

When Li Zhongyi saw this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly, if the farming nation wants to master the combat essentials of war horses, it is indeed a long way to go.

"Forward, Breaker!" Li Zhongyi issued a general attack order at the right time, and the 10,000 horses in the rear immediately took the command as a unit and surrounded the cavalry units of the Japanese army from both flanks.

Since, Fujiwara Sanzo has been burned to ashes. The Japanese cavalry units were ugly, like headless flies, scurrying around.

Except for a very small number of Japanese cavalry who rushed to the end. In addition to the clever U-turn and escape, most of the cavalry warriors of the Japanese army were surrounded by the broken army.

The Japanese cavalry lost the degree of charging into battle, and they were on horseback again, and the pikemen of the Broken Army surrounded one by one, and the Japanese warriors who were still trying to resist in vain. One by one, they stabbed off their horses and pierced them into bloody gourds.

Break the encirclement of the captive army. The smaller and smaller it became, the corpses of the Japanese cavalry warriors were piled up. Some timid fellows quickly threw away the knife in their hands, dismounted and knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Because Ma Guangda, who was in charge of the attack, had received Li Zhongyi's orders in advance, not only did he not hack to death the cavalry warriors of the Japanese army who had already surrendered, but instead asked a few surrendered warriors who knew a little Chinese to shout loudly: "Dismount and surrender the sword, don't kill ......"

"Dismount and surrender your sword and don't kill ......" As more and more Japanese samurai surrendered, the shouts of slogans at their own people also became louder and louder.

About half an hour later, the cavalry reserve of the Japanese army was wiped out, except for the dozen or so horsemen who had escaped, and the rest of the army was annihilated, and more than 1,200 people were captured.

Liao Shanhe cleaned the battlefield, looking at the more than 1,000 good black water horses that he had gathered, he couldn't help grinning happily, good horses are too precious.

At this time, Li Zhongyi's military order was passed to Liao Shanhe in due time, ordering him to quickly organize the corresponding soldiers and cavalry according to the number of captured war horses, and the cavalry to chase and kill Fujiwara Shifu who was mixed in the rout.

Liao Shanhe immediately selected more than 1,000 soldiers who had once ridden donkeys or mules from among the soldiers guarding the captives, tied them to horses, and chased them in the direction where Fujiwara had fled.

At this time, on the frontal battlefield, the large army of the Japanese army had been completely defeated, and countless peasant soldiers who had been forcibly recruited threw down the long three-zhang spears in their hands that were quite cumbersome, turned around and ran.

Liu Heyang, in accordance with the pursuit plan formulated in advance, did not fiercely lead people into the ranks of the defeated and retreating Japanese army, but issued an order to take the command as a unit, and temporarily hand over the scattered Japanese army to the brothers who followed behind, and specially assaulted the large group of Japanese troops that were still gathered in groups.

Since there was a flat river within a radius of 100 miles, whether it was the Broken Capture Army or the Xiang Army trained by Li Zhongyi later, in accordance with the requirements of the regulations, they formed a pursuit detachment with pikemen as the body, sword and shield soldiers second, and crossbowmen as the auxiliary, which were unhurriedly attached behind the defeated army of the Japanese people.

After the pikemen in front passed, a row of empty-handed Japanese soldiers kneeling and begging for mercy appeared in front of Liu Heyang's eyes, and he secretly made a look, and the sword and shield soldiers immediately surrounded him, and a burst of swords chopped down, cutting these Japanese soldiers into pulp.

Liu Heyang personally chopped off half of the head of a Japanese soldier, kicked the dead body out a few feet away, spat it, and scolded: "Thief mother, you want to snatch something from our Xiangshuai's mouth, hehe, let's talk about it in the next life." ”

In the process of chasing, similar things to kill prisoners are not uncommon. Willing is actually very simple, there are few prisoners, it is impossible to disperse the forces to guard these prisoners, who dares to guarantee that after letting go of the surrendered Japanese soldiers, these despicable villains will not make ghosts behind everyone?

Since you don't have to worry about giving your back to these alien devils. Then there is only one way left, and they are all killed, and they are all clean.

The defeated soldiers of the Japanese army heard a series of miserable cries behind them. One by one, the hair was straight in their hearts, and they spread their legs and fled faster.

Liu Heyang grasped the situation in time, and couldn't help but smile slightly, according to the logic of cross-country marching, there is only even running. It is the best way to save effort and run the farthest.

Under the control of the military horn and bamboo whistle, the soldiers of the various commanders who pursued the Japanese army were actually not far apart, once they met a large force of Japanese troops. Soon they will be able to reinforce each other, and work together to encircle and suppress the ugly ones who are trying to resist stubbornly.

If someone in the sky overlooks the entire battlefield, they will be surprised to see that the pursuers of the Broken Captivity Army are intentionally or unintentionally driving the defeated large group of Japanese troops to the direction of the Licheng River.

Fujiwara Shisuke on a horse. Led his retinue, mixed in with the rout, and fled all the way north.

As a veteran general who has led the army for many years. Fujiwara Shisuke always had a thought in his heart, Li Zhongyi's troops were also human, and their bodies must be very limited, and when they survived the most difficult time, he still had the opportunity to defeat the tens of thousands of remnants under his command and organize them again.

Fujiwara Shisuke knew in his heart. If he leaves the brigade, flee for his life alone. It's actually easy to escape. Just, all of a sudden. Defeated so badly, as the general of the expedition to the north and the general of the Japanese army, Fujiwara Shisuke, is extremely unwilling!

At this time, Li Zhongyi slowly stepped down from the Yuan Rong car, and let out a long breath of turbid air on his back, this was the first time he commanded a positional battle, and he finally won a big victory!

Although Li Zhongyi's command process was not so flawless, because the battle plan drawn up by the Senate in advance played a big role, he made many fewer low-level mistakes than Fujiwara Shisuke's old boy.

Therefore, this time the decisive battle between the Han and the Japanese, which was hundreds of years in advance, Li Zhongyi won very beautifully, while Fujiwara Shisuke became a frightened bird and fled on the way to defeat.

Li Zhongyi sat on the horse, took the water bladder handed by the tooth soldier, and drank more than half of it in one go.

Raising his hand to wipe the water stains on the corners of his mouth, the corners of Li Zhongyi's mouth turned up slightly, with this valuable combat experience against cavalry, he will definitely be more calm and confident when facing the Khitan iron cavalry in the future.

The Khitans of this era, the Han people who had not yet completely subjugated the sixteen states of Yanyun, were far from being comparable to the later strong Liao ironclad cavalry.

In other words, with the experience of resisting the Japanese cavalry charge, Li Zhongyi will lead the infantry deep into the grassland in the future, and he will have a little more confidence in self-preservation than before.

Due to the congenital disadvantage of the strategic lack of horses, the mobility of the Zhou army was obviously inferior to that of the Khitans, although Li Zhongyi's powerful infantry could not be pursued, but they could use the car shield array as the best cover for defense, and protect their infantry phalanx to the greatest extent and not be overwhelmed by the Khitan.

Yang Lie sat quietly beside Li Zhongyi, accompanying him to ponder and reflect on the mistakes and omissions of this battle.

After a long time, Yang Liejue Li Zhongyi raised his head, and said with a smile: "Teacher, the system of the Senate Department must be adhered to, and if our army makes fewer low-level mistakes, it means that it has a chance to win." ”

Li Zhongyi smiled slightly and said: "Bai Xing's words have won my heart, this Senate has just begun, and there are still many things that need to be improved, how can it be possible to abolish martial arts?" ”

Yang Lie nodded and said: "Don't hide it from the teacher, in the actual battle just now, the students also showed a lot of paper talk, which is not in line with the actual situation, after this battle, the students will definitely summarize it well." ”

Li Zhongyi touched his chin and looked at Yang Lie with satisfaction, this kid's brain is extremely flexible, and dealing with the iron thistle terrestris of the Japanese cavalry is a clever trick he came up with.

There is always an iron thistle with its head facing up, which is indeed one of the best ways to deal with the attack of a cavalry group, and it is extremely easy to carry, very simple to use, and the effect is very obvious.

Just now, Li Zhongyitong Guò telescope showed that there were at least nearly 100 war horses that had been overturned by the iron thistle, which invisibly provided a valuable buffer for the chariot shield array that resisted the impact of the cavalry!

The overall situation of the decisive battle between the Han and the Japanese has been decided, and most of the soldiers pursued it, and Li Zhongyi, the commander, has become an idler and has nothing to do.

At this moment, the soldiers of Yidu, escorting several Japanese women dressed in black, and two Japanese children, returned to the Chinese army.

"Yu Xiangshuai, this widow woman, when she was captured, she said that she had a heavy military situation and wanted to report it." The head of the escort stood respectfully in front of Li Zhongyi.

Li Zhongyi's gaze swept over the head of the capital, and fell straight on the bodies of the few Japanese women in black, hehe, isn't this an unusually famous ninja among the Japanese people? (To be continued)
