Chapter 398: The Decisive Battle in the Land of Abundance (13)

The setting sun has set under the western plain, and the fifteenth bright moon has risen above the Longquan Mountains. The sky and the earth were hazy, and the white linen cloth on the helmets of the soldiers of the Han Dynasty was undulating, like snowflakes falling on the sea.

Under the dim and white light, a large ball of fire erupted from time to time in front of him, and there was a "boom", which was firing artillery. Rows of firebolts flickered, instantly brighter than the stars in the sky.

On both sides of the array, many pine torches were also lit one after another; The shouts and footsteps were noisy, and the wilderness was still noisy in the evening.

At this time, the brightness of the light is not as good as that of daytime, and it is not clear to see a little away, and the scenery becomes hazy; But people can still see the near world by the evening light and the moonlight in the sky. There is a disease called Gaofeng Sparrow, which is not common in the Ming army. Han Chinese love to eat animal offal, eggs, etc., and often have a lot of vegetables in their diet, including carrots and alfalfa; Even if you have Gaofeng Sparrow, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there was a medical book called "World Doctor Prescription" circulating, which has recorded the treatment methods in detail, and it can generally be treated in Langzhong.

As night fell, it was no longer suitable for the coordinated operation of the large phalanx, and the generals could not see the situation of the large phalanx clearly.

Liu Ying's infantry vanguard pursued in columns, first engaging the enemy with a large array of officers and troops. Each column has turned into a phalanx of 100 households in 10 rows and 10 columns, and a number of 100 households have been placed in front of the official camp to launch an attack.

Behind Liu Ying, the large array of the Han Dynasty's army, and the tens of thousands of people holding torches, were like a vast and boundless sea of fire, like magma spreading from the underworld, slowly spreading westward.

At this time, the war drums played in unison on the large array behind, and the sound of "rumbling" horses' hooves roared rapidly on both wings, and the sound of drumming seemed to be beating on people's chests.

"Ahh......h Dense spears and spears and shields stabbed each other on the front line, and countless tragic scenes were hidden in the hazy moonlight.

The arrows whistling in the air flew straight away, and the black shadows flickered in the moonlight, which was very terrifying.

The great formations of the two armies were already getting closer and closer. In such a situation, there is no longer any room for retreat! The army was approaching, and no famous general could organize a 100,000-strong retreat at night. Only the collapse of the whole army of one side can end, there is no other way!

Liu Ying rode a horse and shuttled between the phalanxes of the hundred households, his voice was a little hoarse, and he shouted from time to time, "Our army is behind us, brothers, defeat in this move!" ”

Some generals echoed and shouted: "The brave wins!" ”

"Brave! Brave! In the midst of the fight, a shout rang out.

Liu Ying saw that not far ahead, an enemy phalanx was in chaos and was collapsing backwards; The white cloth was surging, and several hundred households of the Han Wangjun were moving forward. He immediately slapped his horse forward and shouted, "Listen to the order, stop your advance, and attack with a bow and crossbow fire on the spot." ”

"Order!"

When he heard the response, he immediately turned his horse's head and came to the vicinity of the second line phalanx, shouting, "Where is Mr. Qian here?" ”

Soon several horsemen rushed over and shouted, "The last general!" ”

Liu Ying pointed forward with a knife: "Forward, attack the enemy army in front!" ”

"Order!"

These phalanxes in the back maintain a position similar to the word "pin" with the front; The second phalanx advances directly, and you can walk from between the front phalanxes to the front. And the teams in front of the army, which had just routed some of the enemy troops, could get a little respite.

The total strength of the officers and troops may exceed 100,000, and there is a distance between the various formations. A rout in one place is not enough to tell the winner.

In less than a moment, the battlefield in front of him was rapidly changing, and the situation was becoming more and more complicated. Some of the infantry formations of the Han army have already entered the official army array; And the other side has a counterattack. The scene is simply intertwined and chaotic.

Even the military order is not good! Where the military order should be delivered, the herald will most likely not be able to find it at all. Liu Ying only took a few horses, and on the battle line between the north and the south, he made a decision on the spot, and ordered the generals in front of him to advance and retreat on the spot.

His mount had been replaced by two front and rear horses, and two broken arrows stuck in his shoulder armor, but he had no time to worry about being killed by stray arrows. In his heart, win or die, this is the best end of Rong Ma's career!

On the north side of the battlefield, on the right flank of the Han Dynasty's army, a large group of men and horses holding torches gradually protruded from the "sea of fire" array and spread to the opposite side (west). The Han Wangjun launched a second round of huge offensive!

…… The commander of the right-wing foot cavalry is Qu Neng. Qu Neng's son Qu Liangcai followed him like a shadow, and the father and son led the cavalry, and they had already been operating on the flank of Liu Yingbu, the mid-lane striker.

Qu can see that the camp on the north side of the official army is unstable, and it is being defeated by Liu Ying's infantry army in many places; Without waiting to report to the king of Han, he immediately ordered the right flank to attack on foot.

"Bang bang ......" The firecrackers rang out everywhere to the west, and the place where the fire shone was chaotic. The enemy troops engaged in the battle with the right flank of the Han army set fire to the guns, and the enemy troops in other places also set fires.

In some places, the fire guns did not hit anything, and the Han army facing them was still a hundred paces away. In some places, the guns beat the officers and soldiers themselves to the point of screaming, and those who were mistakenly wounded were those officers and men who were scattered and could not form a formation. As soon as the two armies met each other, chaos began to spread everywhere.

Qu Neng rushed to the northernmost part with a group of cavalry, and the cavalry with white cloth tied on their heads and the cavalry of the official army were rushing back and forth in front, and the cavalry staggered and melried with each other. Arrows from the infantry of the officers and soldiers not far away flew in the air, and many of the officers and cavalry were also shot and dismounted.

The scene in front of me is even more complicated in the night. Qu Nenglerma gradually stopped, and he looked around, dazzled.

He took a deep breath and stared coldly at the battlefield. From time to time, the roar of cannons, the dense explosion of firebolts like fried beans, the whizzing of arrows, and the screams, screams, and cries of the people full of fear and anger echoed in his ears.

Not to be confused by the superficial chaos, just as not to be changed by the glitz of the world, this is Qu Neng's requirement for himself.

Qu Neng glanced at the cavalry melee in front of him, turned around again, and saw that a large group of cavalry that had followed him had gradually gathered behind him. Many torches shone on countless different faces, and nearly half of the cavalry did not raise fire, and they could not light torches with bows and arrows.

"Order the cavalry on the right flank to take off the filial piety cloth from the helmet!" Qu Nengdao.

"Order!"

Then Qu Neng said: "The first rush of the Quan Yong team is in front of Zuo Heng, and the right Heng is second. The cavalry of all units immediately went out to the front and rear of the enemy's large formation, and then turned around and attacked the rear of the front army of the officer's army! ”

The two soldiers took the flag, turned their horses' heads and ran eastward.

Qu Neng explained some words to his own soldiers, and asked them to go to the cavalry again to spread the word.

After a while, the sound of horses' hooves in the vicinity suddenly sounded again, and hundreds of horsemen took the lead and galloped out westward. They quickly rushed into the chaotic cavalry melee area, but the cavalry raised a string of fire without any detours, and headed straight to the west.

Hundreds of cavalry and cavalry crossed the right flank of the Han army, and rushed forward in groups......

There was still a sea of fire on the large array of officers and soldiers, and most of them did not carry torches, but the sergeants with torches were everywhere. There was a wide gap between the two armies in front and behind, and there was a wide gap, but the open space in the middle was within the range of bows and arrows.

The cavalry of the Han army rushed into the open space in the middle, but was not attacked by the infantry bow. The clothes and armor of the two armies were almost the same, and they couldn't distinguish at night, and the only filial piety cloth that could be distinguished was also taken off the head by the cavalry of the Han Dynasty.

"Whose cavalry are you?" Someone in the moonlight shouted.

But no one answered. The Han Wangjun Quanyong team rushed left and ran into the open space, taking the lead in detouring to the front and rear flanks of the official army, "Kill!" Kill ......" shouted as a result.

In an instant, the orderly torches began to move and become chaotic, and the large crowd was noisy, with shouts, screams, and horses' hooves.

More cavalry came, and when the cavalry heard the general's order, they shouted in unison: "Our Han King is back!" ”

While rushing to kill, the tribes shouted all kinds of words, "Brothers of the Sichuan Health Center, abandon the darkness and turn to the light!" "King Han is back!" "The brethren go north, and they are all their own people!" "Peace, brothers get back together......"

There was chaos in the rear of the flank of the front army of the officers and soldiers, and the shouts of countless people could be heard far away in the flat night.

At this moment, Qu Neng led the main force of the right flank of the Han Dynasty army to the east of the official army and launched a fierce attack on the large array on the north side. When there are many people, the attacking formation is easy to be confused, but the large formation of the officers and troops is even more chaotic.

In an instant, a large part of the crowd on the flanks of the officers and soldiers collapsed.

Almost everyone didn't come to their senses, and the collapse began to spread far away!

The vast sea of fire array, thousands of large phalanxes, and countless ironclad soldiers originally seemed to be an unbreakable army. But in the blink of an eye, a landslide and tsunami happened! The chaotic fires, the surging crowds, spread in all directions, and no one could control them, and there was no way to reverse the situation.

The defeat of the army was like a mountain.

Countless scattered torches and faint crowds are really flowing northward like a flood. The round moon is above the black shadow of the Longquan Mountains; People can't see anything else, but the direction is clear.

After a long time, several large phalanxes on the left flank of the rear army of the officers and troops began to advance with fire. It seems that the officers and generals want to reinforce the left flank of the front army to prevent the defeat from spreading to the Chinese army. But there were too many chaotic crowds, and people couldn't see the situation clearly at night, so there was a gap between the formations of all sides, and the chaotic army still counterattacked into the flank of the rear army!

The scale of the collapse escalated rapidly, and the larger chaos grew worse.

A large array of more than 100,000 people was turbulent in the night, and the scene was very huge. It's as if everyone is shouting! Under the hazy starry sky, it is like the panic of everything in the forest fire, earth-shattering.

And in the vast Han King Army, which cannot see the head, it is a different situation.

"King Han! King Han! "Long live the Han Wangjun! Long live ......" In the east of the Han army, excited shouts were everywhere, and the shouts resounded one after another throughout the land.
