Chapter 427: Temporary Truce

The Mad Dog Army was the most powerful unit under him, and who knew that he didn't even stick to the effort of two meals, which made him angry and angry, and he was also shocked and angry at the combat strength of the Tongzhou Army.

"A bunch of waste, what a wild wolf camp, Lao Tzu looks like a mad dog camp. When you encounter a soft one, you are more ruthless than anyone else, and when you encounter a hard bone, you will be soft! Feng Shi jumped like thunder, and scolded angrily in the corner tower of Nancheng, "Kang Yuanjie is also a waste, doesn't he boast of his bravery all day long?" How was the head cut off! ”

Hearing Feng Shishre's scolding of the soldiers who had died in battle, the generals and strategists beside him were silent, and they didn't dare to say a word, and they all had a feeling of sadness in their hearts.

"Come on, give Lao Tzu to follow, even if you fill them with human lives, you have to drive them out!" How important is the geographical location of Montenegro County Feng Shi knew very well that this was the last barrier in Yingzhou, and after scolding for a while and losing his temper, Feng Shi ordered.

"General, no!" As soon as Feng Shi's order was given, Ding Shan, his most trusted strategist, hurriedly came out to stop him.

"Now that our army has been defeated and the enemy's morale is even stronger, it is useless to send more troops now, and there is a loss of manpower for no reason." Pretending not to see Feng Shi's cannibalistic eyes, Ding Shan said stubbornly.

"So what do you say?" In the first battle, he lost one of his most combat-effective troops, and Feng Shi's mood was extremely bad, and even Ding Shan, who trusted him the most in ordinary times and even respected him, did not make any excuses.

Seeing Feng Shi's attitude, Ding Shan, who was born as a person, sighed secretly, "General, it's better for us to stay away from the city, temporarily rest our troops, and avoid its edge." The northern city was taken away by them, and we still have the southern city gate, and there are more than 40,000 troops, and the advantage is still in our hands. I think that the number of the Chicheng army is no more than 10,000 at most, although it has the advantage of swords and guns, and the strength of the armor, but they dare not leave the north gate to fight with us. We might as well reorganize our army and fight them again. ”

Ding Shan's words made Feng Shi's eyes light up, now is indeed not a good time to fight head-on with the Chicheng army, why not Mingjin first withdraw the troops and fight again in the future?

"Okay, herald the troops!" Feng Shi took Ding Shan's advice and ordered loudly.

Hearing the sound of gold on the other side, Xu Shijun shook his head in disappointment, "It seems that Feng Shi is not stupid yet, I thought he could fight with us, but I didn't expect him to shrink back and turn defense into offense, it will be difficult to fight." ”

"There is no difference." Looking at the Blood Lotus Sect soldiers who were retreating in chaos on the opposite side, Qin Forget said with certainty, "Look at their appearance, it's like their butts are on fire, these people are fiercer than anyone else in a good fight, and they can run faster than anyone else once they encounter a setback." A rabble will never make the climate. ”

Xu Shijun looked up, no, the Blood Lotus Sect just Ming Jin withdrew his troops, which was a normal thing in the army, but a good retreat was caused by them into a big rout.

One by one, they scrambled to run back, just like the Akagi army behind them. Obviously, there are many people in it who don't understand the meaning of Mingjin, and when they see people retreating backwards, they also retreat backwards, and they can't help but panic when they are a little behind, and they run forward headlessly,

I only hoped that I could return to the barracks earlier than my companions, but some people simply cried out in fright, and even threw weapons on the ground.

Seeing that his opponents were so unbearable, Xu Shijun didn't intend to let them go, "Archers extend their shots!" Pursuit! ”

As thousands of bows and arrows were fired into the Blood Lotus Army, their retreating formation became even more scattered, and they scurried everywhere crying for their fathers and mothers, like frightened sheep. There have been cases of trampling on each other in the formation, and some people have even slashed and slashed their comrades who are in the way.

"Pikemen attack!" It was obviously not a wise choice to chase the enemy with ironclad soldiers, and Cheng dared to shout a loud order to the pikemen who had been staying behind the ironclad soldiers.

The three thousand pikemen quickly chased after the fleeing Blood Lotus Army over the ironclad soldiers, they lined up in a neat formation, the spears in their hands pointed forward with flat ends, and the tips of their spears were aimed at the enemy. Compared to the hungry Blood Lotus Sect soldiers, the pikemen's physical strength was much better. Soon caught up with the Blood Lotus Sect soldiers and stabbed them down in rows, like a big guillotine, harvesting wheat in patches, it was simply crushing. It didn't take long for thousands of Blood Lotus Sect soldiers to die under their guns, and the results of the battle were much greater than the long fierce battle of the Iron Armor Army.

The Blood Lotus Sect soldiers were even more panicked, and rushed directly towards their own Chinese army's large array.

Seeing the tens of thousands of soldiers under his command being chased by thousands of people rushing directly towards his own formation, Feng Shi was furious, he really didn't expect his soldiers to be so wasteful, he couldn't beat it, and he couldn't even retreat.

"The overseer team will kill Lao Tzu, let them run to both sides, and whoever attacks the Chinese army, kill! Archer shooting! No matter how incompetent Feng Shi was, he also knew that if he let the rout disrupt the Chinese army, it would be a lot of fun, so he ordered in a cruel voice.

"Run in both directions, run in both directions!" Hundreds of warlords shouted in unison, raised the red tasseled broadsword in their hands and chopped over the hundreds of people who ran at the front.

At this time, thousands of archers in Feng Shi's army took all kinds of bows and arrows and shot a round into the chaos, killing thousands of people again.

The deaths of more than 1,000 people finally played a role, and the panicked rebels finally regained a little reason and ran over from both sides of the Chinese army.

"Shoot them!" Seeing that the chasing Akagi pikemen were not armoured, Feng Shi ordered the archers again.

Thousands of arrows flew over Feng Shi's head and shot at the Akagi pikemen, but their rain of arrows was much less powerful. Most of the feathered arrows fell on their own before they could reach the pikemen's heads. Some of them had enough range, but they were easily pulled down by the pikemen, and only a few feathered arrows were fast and ruthless, causing dozens of casualties to the Akagi pikemen.

Feng Shi had 4,000 archers, but these archers were not strictly trained, and their archery skills were really average. Most of the bows and arrows in the archers were made of bamboo, cork, or ordinary hunting bows and riding bows, and a very few were standard infantry bows captured from the hands of officials and soldiers. This is also the reason why their archers did not provide support when the Mad Dogs attacked the Ironclad, because they could not shoot.

"Mingjin retreats!" Seeing that Feng Shi had stabilized his position and had no advantage to take advantage of, Xu Shijun ordered the troops to be withdrawn.

"Bell bell ......" The crisp and rapid sound of gold sounded, and the spear army formation was suddenly divided into two halves from the middle, the right side was in strict formation, and the blood lotus army was in strict formation, and the pikemen on the left turned around in unison under the command of the colonel, strode forward ten steps, and then stood still, and turned around in unison, "brushed" and put down the spear, putting on a fighting posture.

Just as the left half of the pikemen were ready, the right half of the pikemen collected their guns, turned around, and walked back twenty steps in a fit of rage, recovering the left half of the pikemen. In this way, the two pikemen lined up in a neat line, alternately covering the retreat, and in the blink of an eye, they retreated cleanly, and even the corpses of their comrades were taken away.

"Damn, can you still retreat like this?" The movements of the pikemen stunned Feng Shi and the others, and they were also drenched in cold sweat, and they began to realize that the officers and troops on the opposite side were different from the ones they had seen before, and this officer and army might be difficult to fight.

Don't talk about Feng Shi and them, even Qin Forget was dumbfounded, "General Xu really manages the army well, just this hand, I dare to say that there are few armies in the world that can do it." He exclaimed.

"The general praised it falsely, this is not the credit of his subordinates." Xu Shijun hurriedly said, "This is all General Cheng's training, and it's just Xiao Gui Cao's follow." ”

"General Xu, don't be modest, I believe you all have credit!" Qin Shu patted Xu Shijun on the shoulder, looked at the generals around him, and said, "Getting the Tongzhou Army is really a blessing for me Qin Forget!" Everyone, I know that it was not easy for everyone before, who can not be tolerated by his Zhao family, which one is not a well-known man? What you can't get in the Zhao family, I'll double it for you! ”

Hearing Qin Wangqing's sincere words, the generals were very moved.

"I am willing to die for the general!" Xu Shijun took the lead and saluted Qin Wang.

"I am willing to die for the general!" All the generals shouted in unison, and they all saluted.

"Okay, everyone, excuse me!" Qin Forget helped Xu Shijun up, and said to the other generals, "You don't live up to my Qin Forget, I Qin Forget will not live up to you, and when you take Black Mountain County, I will give you a celebration banquet, and we will reward you for your meritorious deeds!" ”

Everyone cheered in unison with joy.

"Look, general, what is the Blood Lotus Army doing?" At this moment, a pro-soldier pointed at the Blood Lotus Army camp and shouted.

Qin Forget and the others followed the sound, only to see that at this time, the Blood Lotus Army had slowly retreated back to the barracks in front of the southern city wall. All the residential areas within three miles of the South City Gate were occupied by the Blood Lotus Army, and it was unknown how many Blood Lotus soldiers were hidden in each room. The entire Black Mountain County has been divided into two, the Blood Lotus Army occupies the South City Gate and most of the residential areas, and the Tongzhou Army only occupies the North City Gate.

This is not unusual, in any case, the number of the Blood Lotus Army is still four or five times that of the Tongzhou Army, and in terms of numbers alone, they are still the superior side, occupying the vast residential areas and making it clear that they want to fight street battles with the Tongzhou Army.

What is strange is that a huge wooden sign was placed on the north city wall, on which were written in red ink with two big characters, "No War"!
