The lieutenant general was almost furious, and before he could meet the enemy, he lost a hundred households! He drove his war horse carefully to avoid the trap, and finally rushed over, and before he continued to speed up, he saw countless thistles thrown out of the crowd on the other side, and these thistles were connected by two ropes, about half a foot in size, and the ropes were one step away from each other.

Before Yuan Qi woke up, countless tribulus terrestris were sprinkled in front of him, and at the same time, Qin Zhanshan retreated more than a dozen steps, and sprinkled hundreds of thistles along the way!

The Yuan cavalry who rushed through the pit was fortunate, but hated these thieves and immediately accelerated to continue the attack. These sprinkled thistles are uncovered, but they are more than numerous, and the horses are galloping, and it is inevitable that there will be those who happen to step on or be entangled by ropes.

Stepping on, the war horse screamed, flew out and fell to the ground, entangled by the rope, due to inertia, the two thistles will use the rope to circle, either the war horse trips, or the horse's hooves will step on again, even if these thistles are kicked away, or picked up by the Yuan cavalry with a spear, but they can't stand too many, they can't cope with it at all!

Within 100 paces of the foot soldiers, another hundred horsemen fell one after another!

At the same time as he fell, Qin Zhanshan gave an order, and hundreds of archers came out of the line and shot at the Yuan cavalry. Most of these bows and arrows were captured and made by the Shuntian army successively, and although the two sides were close to each other, there was still time to shoot two rounds.

When the Yuan cavalry was about to meet the enemy, the archers retreated, and the shield men and pikemen stepped forward to resist the charging Yuan cavalry, and the two sides finally began to contact each other! So far, the thousand-person Yuan Rider has lost about three hundred!

The adjutant general was bitter in his heart, he was lucky not to die on the way to the charge, his war horse stepped on the horse pit and fell to the ground, he had to fly and jump on an empty Yuan cavalry war horse behind, the owner of the war horse was too unlucky, and he was killed by an arrow in the last fifty steps.

"Kill me! Kill all these thieves! "The lieutenant shouted, he wants revenge!

What the adjutant general didn't know was that Li Zhenxiong's experience was worse than him!

He also learned that his left flank had made a big breakthrough, and nearly half of the Yuan cavalry had already been transferred to the left flank to outflank the enemy, and the lookout post on the hanging tower announced that the left wing Yuan Cai flag was moving quickly and was about to be inserted into the middle of the opponent's array. The anti-thief array has begun to be chaotic, and the banners of each team are swaying one after another, depending on the situation, the complete penetration of the anti-thief military formation will soon be realized.

What I didn't know at first was that what I saw at the outpost was that the soldiers of Qin Zhanshan's department urgently retreated dozens of steps before the Yuan cavalry rushed over, and then sprinkled the thistle terrestris on the ground. Because the distance was too far, the lookout could only barely see the flags here, and the Qin Department seemed to be retreating. The detailed battle situation can only be reported after the battlefield scouts of the Yuan army.

Let's also look at the opponent's Chinese army under the blow of their own stone artillery, the originally neat array has become twisted and twisted, the soldiers are trying to avoid the falling rocks in the sky and the rolling stones on the ground, many people are nervously staring at the sky to dodge, they don't have time to pay attention to their feet, they are tripped or injured by the rolling stones, which leads to greater panic.

The Yuan army has the advantage of equipment, and the distance of these hundreds of steps will make the opponent extremely tormented, this time in order to speed up the march, although it only carried ten small catapults, it was enough to deal with the enemy!

Not to mention that there are also firecrackers and archers in the forefront!

Three hundred paces, the artillery team is showing its might.

Two hundred paces, the bows and arrows of the Yuan army were sprinkled on the opposite side like a shower.

A hundred paces, the firecrackers began to spray bullets.

"Raise your shield! Raise your shield! Yu Shichang, who was standing in the forefront, shouted, "Pay attention to the formation, everyone get closer!" ”。 Along the way, the casualties of the soldiers in the first few columns were not large, but the soldiers in the back columns were obviously much damaged.

In order to maintain morale, Yu Shichang strictly ordered the soldiers not to turn back, so as not to see the tragic situation of casualties in the back and affect the morale of the army!

Stones, arrows rained down, one after another, Yu Shichang commanded the front and rear columns to approach, the back row raised a shield with both hands, protecting the upper part, only to hear the sound of knock knock endlessly, countless arrows fixed on the shield. Fortunately, it is not easy to transport the stone-throwing machine, and this time it only brought ten small equipment, and Linqu City is a small city, the city wall is shorter, the wall is thinner, and the use of stone-throwing is mainly a deterrent. As the front team approached, more stones fell into the back team.

The arrows of the Yuan army are now thrown, once there is a gap in the queue, the arrows happen to fall into, and most of the soldiers in the back row are arrows in the chest and abdomen, and the arrows enter the flesh at least one palm, and even directly penetrate the body. In the screams, dozens of people fell on the ground in a row!

A hundred steps later, I saw two columns of firearms in the front of the Yuan army begin to wield. With the order of his hundred households, the soldiers stuffed projectiles and medicine packets into the medicine room of the fire gun, pressed them tightly, and each fire rope ignited one after another, and the green smoke burned and aimed ahead.

It should be said that the Yuan army's long-, medium- and short-range defensive strikes were still well arranged, and the losses caused by these hundreds of steps to the Shuntian army were extremely obvious, especially the stone cannons and arrows had the greatest results. Because of the limited amount of gunpowder and performance, firecrackers can only be lethal at close range, and they are mostly injured.

However, the scene of the fire guns being released is quite terrifying, the toms are endless, white smoke is everywhere, the marbles fly forward, and the thin shields are directly penetrated by them!

Sitting on the horse, he nodded slightly, and was very satisfied with the current situation. Squinting his eyes to the rear, Dalu Huachi Beggar'er from Linqu County was sitting on a horse, quietly watching the changes in the battle situation. This time, the official army suppressed the thieves, and the beggar came with the army under the order of King Yi's slave. The beggar lost his place of governance, and almost fled back to Yidu City alone, according to the meaning of King Yiwang to buy slaves, he was directly tied up and pushed outside the gate, beheaded, and the lightest was also stripped of his official position and rushed back to his hometown on the grassland!

But Gu Kai stepped forward and persuaded: The beggar lost the city, and he deserved it, but the anti-thieves were cunning, taking advantage of the internal response in the city, and the Han army had a rebellion, which caught the defenders off guard. It is better to let the beggars fight with the army, so that they can be guilty and meritorious. Moreover, the beggar has been in the city for several years, and is familiar with the defense and situation in the city, and perhaps there is still a place for use on the battlefield.

After hearing this, Mai Nu thought for a while, adopted Gu Kai's words, and no longer commanded, and directly drove out the beggar who had been kneeling on the ground and trembling.

A beggar in a cold sweat left the Yiwang Mansion, and after the night was dark, he personally went to Gu Kai's temporary mansion, presented Gu Kai with a box of money and dozens of gold ingots, and thanked Gu Kai repeatedly. It turned out that after the beggar fled back to Yidu City overnight with gold and silver and other household assets, he secretly thought that he was guilty of losing the city, Yiwang has always been irritable, and he would use a knife in case of a crime, but the big thing is not good, think about it, Gu Kai from Jingshi has an old relationship with himself, Gu Kai was specially sent to Yidu by the Privy Council to supervise the bandits on Yidu Road, and his words, Yiwang must give face to buy slaves!

Sure enough, with Gu Kai's kind words, Beggar Er escaped a catastrophe, and this time he went south with the army, and Beggar also hoped to avenge himself. If there is an opportunity to make meritorious contributions, maybe the official can be reinstated.

Although Gu Kai has great ambitions, but the cost of the Jingguan is huge, and it is a drop in the bucket to rely on that little money alone, and Gu Kai is not an arrogant and noble person, so after several shirks, he finally accepted it with a difficult face.

At this time, the right wing came to report, Meng Qing encountered stubborn resistance, almost no progress, and the casualties were not small, Meng Qing asked the Chinese army for support.

Seeing Meng Qing asking for help, he also weighed his subordinates first, and then considered the dynamics of the battlefields everywhere, and finally made up his mind and said, "Where is Tang Wuwei?" ”

Li Zhenxiong stepped forward and said, "The end will be!" ”

"Immediately gather the existing men and horses, support the right flank Meng Qing deputy Wanhu, allow you to choose your own route and direction of attack, you must arrive at the battlefield within one pillar of incense, two pillars of incense to chisel through the enemy formation, after disrupting the enemy formation, and Meng Qing's troops encircle and annihilate the enemy on the right flank!"

"Obey!" Li Zhenxiong is overjoyed, he finally has his chance to play! Li Zhenxiong immediately drove his horse back to his headquarters with his own soldiers, and gathered his subordinates to kill the right flank.

The Chinese army is still in a thick position, and it is not in a hurry at first, as long as it continues to inflict heavy casualties on Liu Zhengfeng, even if he retreats a little, he can accept it. After all, after the two wings broke through, Liu Zhengfeng was outflanked, and it was difficult to fly with wings!

Mingxiong saw that the Yuan cavalry began to come around the headquarters, and immediately rushed to Yu Zhilong and saluted: "The enemy cavalry has come, please allow me to come forward to fight!" ”

"Yes, take care!" Yu Zhilong solemnly returned and said, "Order Ma Rulong's troops to fight immediately and resolutely stop the Tartar cavalry!" ”。

Mingxiong took a group of soldiers to meet the Yuan cavalry.

Meng Qing was overjoyed to receive the support of the Yuan cavalry, and repeatedly ordered and urged all departments to fight to the death without retreating, and even withdrew two hundred households in one go, and cut off a general flag with poor command. For a while, Meng Qingyi's army mustered up the will to fight, and once again stormed Mu Chun's defense line.

"Tree Shield! Tree Shield! Spearmen, stabs! Stab again! Mu Chun brandished his broadsword and tried his best to slash at the rushing volunteers, while organizing the defenses around him.

In order to fight better, Mu Chun consulted Mingxiong several times a few days ago, and asked Mingxiong to take his subordinates to train and guide his soldiers, and also specially organized several sparring exercises.

Mu Chun had participated in the Battle of Bianliang and knew the importance of the military formation, on the battlefield of tens of millions of people, the personal martial arts were almost negligible, and only by letting the soldiers combine the indestructible array could they preserve themselves to the greatest extent and kill and injure the enemy, so Mu Chun focused on organizing the cooperation of shield bearers and pikemen. The shield soldiers are in the front, mainly defensive, and the pikemen are in the rear, full-time attack, combining attack and defense, and commanding to a certain extent.

Now this formation has made Meng Qing's volunteers suffer greatly, and more and more volunteers have fallen at the forefront of the contact battle.

In order to better defend, Mu Chun also specially made a large wooden shield that was more than half a person high, after the shield bearer raised the shield, the short body was hidden behind it, so as to protect most of his own, and the other hand waved the short knife to block the rushing knives and guns, as long as the wooden shield did not fall apart, most of the shield bearers could hold on.

The shield soldiers lined up side by side, forming a shield wall, although there were casualties from time to time, but the soldiers in the back immediately filled the vacant places, and the pikemen were behind them, and the number was usually twice as many as the shield soldiers in front.

Mu Chun played a majestic role in Shiyu Village, and his soldiers were more respectful of his might, and Mu Chun stood at the forefront with a wooden shield in his hand, and he was the first soldier, so his subordinates were all effective and effective, plus the organization was effective, and the killing of the volunteers was obviously stronger than that of the Huang Second Division.

"Brother Ming, can we go up? Boys can't wait! Seeing Mingxiong coming, Ma Rulong hurriedly ran over and asked.

"The Yuan Cavalry has already pounced, and the general has ordered me to fight with your troops!" As soon as Mingxiong finished speaking, a herald galloped over and conveyed Zhilong's military order to Ma Rulong.

"Great! And voila! Ma Rulong got the military order, oh oh, turned around and ran back, shouting as he ran: "Assemble, assemble!" It's all there, it's our turn! ”

When the Yuan cavalry bypassed the two opposing sides in a roundabout way, Mingxiong and Ma Rulong and other troops had already lined up a defensive formation and faced the direction of the Yuan cavalry's impact.

Like Mu Chun's forefront, the soldiers at the forefront all held wooden shields, forming a tight shield. Mingxiong stared at his eyes, staring at the direction and speed of Yuanqi's impact without blinking, and silently estimated the distance between the two sides in his heart.

Ma Rulong was already in a hurry to jump in the back just now, seeing Huang Er, Luo Cheng, and Hou Ying fighting bloody in front, and the casualties were carried down like a stream, and even Huang Er and Luo Cheng were seriously injured, and finally it was Mu Chun's subordinates who stabilized the situation.

Huang's second division was removed for rest due to casualties and exhaustion.
