Chapter 424: Becoming Famous in Hebei
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Liu Xiu dodged sideways, and swung a sword to slash Peng Ning's neck. Peng Ning hurriedly put away his sword to block. When! The collision of swords and swords exploded with a crisp sound, and a ball of sparks suddenly appeared between the two swords. Liu Xiuli split Huashan with another sword, this
The coming of a sword is even more ferocious.
Peng Ning took a deep breath and parried upwards with his horizontal sword. When! There was another crisp sound, and Peng Ning's body shook, and he took a step back.
As soon as he stabilized his figure, Liu Xiu came one after another, and slashed down with his sword again with his sword. Peng Ning roared angrily, and once again parried upwards with his horizontal sword.
When! Peng Ning was shocked back two steps this time, and before his body could stand firmly, Liu Xiu rushed up again, still slashing at Huashan and slashing at the top of his head.
Peng Ning roared and held his sword in both hands, parrying upwards with all his might. When! Click! With two crisp sounds, the sword in Peng Ning's hand was overwhelmed and was slashed by Liu Xiu's Chixiao sword.
Yes! Peng Ning was shocked, holding the sword that was only half left, and retreated again and again, at the same time, he looked at the red sword in Liu Xiu's hand in horror and horror, and the beads of sweat on the top of his head also flowed.
Liu Xiu didn't hesitate for a moment, took the Chixiao Sword, chased after Peng Ning, and when he came to the latter's approach, he swept with his sword and slashed at Peng Ning's waist.
Peng Ning couldn't block, threw away the half of the saber in his hand, and rolled backwards, narrowly avoiding the edge of the Chixiao Sword. However, the scale armor on his back was still cut through a long gap.
At this time, Peng Ning's anger in his heart had been completely replaced by fear.
He didn't dare to fight, so he turned around and ran. Liu Xiu was willing to let him go, and immediately chased after him. He only chased five or six steps, and rushed towards more than a dozen Wang Lang soldiers, blocking the way.
Liu Xiu snorted, didn't avoid it at all, and greeted him with a sword. Jingle Bell! Liu Xiu swung his sword to open the spear stabbed in front of him, and then when he came close to the soldiers, the Chixiao sword slashed out horizontally.
Hearing the sound of sand, the leather armor on the chests of the three soldiers was torn open by the blade of the sword, and the blood flowed from the armor, and the three of them screamed and fell on their backs.
A spear stabbed from the diagonal side, directly hitting Liu Xiu's soft underbelly, and the latter slid and dodged at the same time, grabbed the shaft of the spear, pulled it back, and the spearhead swept past his side, stabbing fiercely at a soldier who killed him from behind.
At the same time, he slashed out with a sword, slashing the soldiers in front of him to the ground.
More than a dozen soldiers who blocked Liu Xiu, under his Chixiao Sword, none of them could go on a round.
In an instant, people were all lying in pools of blood. At this time, Liu Xiu was already covered in blood, his face was red and white, bloodstained, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Liu Xiu's skills are indeed very powerful, otherwise, when he was in Kunyang, he would not dare to rush to the camp of 400,000 reckless troops with only 3,000 death squads.
As the enemy troops fell in front of him one by one, Liu Xiu felt that the pride and ambition of the decisive battle in Kunyang had returned.
His wrist turned, and the Chixiao Sword pulled out a red sword flower in his hand, and he yelled at Wang Lang's soldiers who continued to pounce on him.
Looking at Liu Xiu, who was covered in blood and carrying a blood sword, Wang Lang's soldiers were horrified, and the crowd that had rushed over involuntarily stopped one after another, and stopped five steps away from Liu Xiu, holding a spear.
They didn't dare to go up, but Liu Xiu didn't have the slightest timidity, and as soon as he shook the Chixiao Sword in his hand, there was a sound of sand, and there was an extra blood mark on the ground. He slashed at the crowd of soldiers in front of him with his sword.
Liu Xiu was fast, and Long Yuan and the others were also dissatisfied with their speed. Several of them entered the crowd of Wang Lang's army and killed the opponent's soldiers in chaos.
Peng Ning, who was in the crowd, grinned secretly, he really didn't expect that Liu Xiu, who was born as a farmer in Nanyang, would be so good at fighting and so brave in battle, he was even more desperate than Saburo.
It was only at this time that he realized that Liu Xiu's victory in the Battle of Kunyang was not out of luck, Liu Xiu, who went to the battlefield, was really a ruthless person.
He was afraid, unwilling and afraid to resist Liu Xiu's edge again, and retreated step by step, intending to wait for an opportunity to escape.
At this moment, another county army appeared on the flank of Wang Lang's army, and attacked it, led by a general, of medium stature, but holding a sledgehammer, this is Wang Ba.
Wang Ba took the lead, with a hundred county soldiers, like a sharp sword, from the flank of Wang Lang's army. Wang Ba doesn't look for others, and the first thing he targets is Peng Ning.
He wielded a sledgehammer, blocking the soldiers of Wang Lang's army in front of him, sticking to it and dying, and dying if it touched, Wang Ba was in the chaos of the army, and he simply opened a bloody road and rushed to Peng Ning's approach.
"Leave the shaft, eat me with a hammer!" Wang Bayun had enough strength, slammed the hammer with both hands, and slammed it on the top of Peng Ning's head.
Peng Ning was scared into a cold sweat, and he didn't care about losing face, his body rolled on the ground, dodging to the side.
Boom!
Wang Ba's hammer did not hit Peng Ning, and he hammered it on the ground.
Peng Ning, who was tumbling, felt a shock to the ground. Before he could get up from the ground, Wang Ba smashed it again with a hammer. Peng Ning could only bite the bullet and continue to roll on the ground.
He turned to a subordinate with an iron halberd in front of him, jumped up from the ground, grabbed the iron halberd from his subordinate's hand, and threw the subordinate towards Wang Ba.
Pity this general of Wang Lang's army, when he came back to his senses, he had staggered and sat down in front of Wang Ba.
He saw Wang Ba, and at the same time saw the hammer that Wang Ba had smashed down. Syllable! The hammer hit the top of the general's head, and the head inside the helmet belt was smashed flat. The corpse collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.
Peng Ning held the iron halberd in both hands, howled and ran towards Wang Ba, a halberd stabbed into his lower abdomen. Wang Ba flicked the sledgehammer in his hand outward, and when it was long, Peng Ning's hands were numb from the shock, and the iron halberd almost flew out of his hand.
Why is this man so strong! Peng Ning took two steps back, a look of horror on his face.
Wang Ba didn't care what he thought in his heart, picked up the hammer and slammed it at the top of Peng Ning's head. Peng Ning exerted his strength to feed, raised the iron halberd, and parried upward.
When! At that moment, Peng Ning's arms seemed to be electrified, and others involuntarily knelt on one knee.
He held the iron halberd in both hands and held it high, while Wang Ba held the hammer in both hands and pressed down with all his strength, and the two of them were more powerful.
Before the two of them could decide the winner, the crowd of Wang Langjun behind Peng Ning suddenly became chaotic, and as several blood jets sprayed out of the crowd, Liu Xiu, who was covered in blood and holding the Chixiao Sword, rushed out of the crowd.
Seeing Peng Ning, who was competing with Wang Ba, Liu Xiu didn't say a word of nonsense, stepped forward and slashed down with a sword.
Peng Ning heard something wrong with the movement behind him, and he wanted to dodge, but the sledgehammer pressed down from above trapped him and made him unable to move.
It was too late, it was too fast, and Liu Xiu's sweeping sword cut off Peng Ning's arms and neck.
The human head fell to the ground, and at the same time, the two broken arms that were still clutching the iron halberd also fell. The sledgehammer, which had lost its block, pressed heavily on the chest of Penning's corpse, crushing his sternum and sinking his ribcage into a large pit.
Wang Ba strode forward, bent down, grabbed Peng Ning's severed head, held it high above his head, and shouted loudly: "Peng Ning is dead!" Penning is dead—"
When he shouted in such a loud voice, he could hear it from a long distance.
Wang Langjun, who was already dizzy by the county army, heard the news that his main general had died at this time, his fighting spirit was sharply reduced, the army's morale was in chaos, and many soldiers were no longer desperate, and they turned around and ran away regardless of it.
One thousand against three thousand, Liu Xiu's side should have been at an absolute disadvantage, but in the actual battle, this thousand county army was incredibly crushing the more than 3,000 Wang Lang army.
The reason why this is the case is certainly related to the courage of Liu Xiu and his subordinates, but the main reason is that Liu Xiu's tactics are properly used.
Shen Ping's first army was wiped out in Lunu, which made Peng Ning's first department naturally believe that the Zhongshan county army was in Lunu, and the county army camp opposite Anxian was just an empty camp.
But when they came in, they found that it was not the case at all, not only was it not an empty camp, but it also set up an ambush for them.
At this time, Peng Ning's first department was already in a state of dizziness. They couldn't figure out where the main force of the county army was, it seemed that it was both in Lunu and at the same time in the camp on the south bank, and the Zhongshan army was haunted and seemed to be everywhere.
It can be said that in terms of psychological warfare, before the two sides officially fought each other, Wang Langjun had already lost first.
Wang Langjun, led by Peng Ning, did not expect that the county army was fighting separately, which is actually understandable. Before Wang Lang was not proclaimed emperor, his henchmen, like Peng Ning, were just people in the rivers and lakes, even if they had read some military books, they only knew some theoretical knowledge, and they could talk about soldiers on paper, but few of them could get it in actual combat
Shot.
But Liu Xiu is different, he really combines book theory and practice in one place.
And since the army rose in Chungling, he followed his eldest brother to rebel, Liu Xiu has not fought a few battles with more and less, and most of the battles he has experienced have been fought with less, and the weak have fought strong, and he has grown up from adversity thoroughly.
In the eyes of others, it is already difficult to fight 7,000 with 2,000, and if you divide your troops to fight, it will undoubtedly be self-defeating. But Liu Xiu, who is used to fighting more with less, really dares to do this, and he is very handy to do it.
Peng Ning is much older than Liu Xiu, but in terms of battlefield experience, the gap between him and Liu Xiu is like that of a toddler and a vigorous adult.
The battle between Liu Xiu's department and Peng Ning's department was to use the soldier's trickery to the extreme.
With the help of Sun Cang and Wei Bao's strategy, Liu Xiu came up with a plan, not just a plan, but a chain plan, and it went down in one go, and led Peng Ning's troops into the desperate situation of annihilation of the whole army step by step.
After Peng Ning died in battle, the suspense of the next battle was completely lost, and the situation on the battlefield became completely one-sided. Except for a small number of Wang Lang's troops who escaped by chance, most of Wang Lang's troops were either killed or disarmed and surrendered.
After this battle, the Peng Ning Division, which had more than 7,000 people, was completely annihilated by Liu Xiu, who only had 2,000 people. This battle not only frightened Wang Lang in Handan, but also shocked the counties of Hebei.
At this time, the counties of Hebei also had to start to face up to Liu Xiu, who was chased by Wang Lang like a lost dog, and couldn't help muttering secretly in his heart, whether he fell to Wang Lang's side, whether it was a way out or a dead end. For Liu Xiu, this battle was of extraordinary significance, not only made him famous in Hebei, but also directly led to a consequence, Shanggu County and Yuyang County in Youzhou decided to stand on Liu Xiu's side.
