Chapter 755: It's not what it used to be, it's either stronger or it's dead
It turned out that although the thieves in Hedong were too late to resist because of the sudden rush of the Song army, and the formation was cut into many pieces by countless sharp knives, there were still some thieves who could survive temporarily from the formation of the official army's charge, and Tian Biao led the murderers under his command to see that Xiao Tang, Yao Pingzhong, Guan Sheng and other officials were all overwhelmed, and it was difficult for him to resist, so he aimed at the soldiers and horses of the officers and soldiers stationed in the same place in the distance.
"Brothers, the officers and soldiers are nothing more than that! When we go out, we can be happy! Tian Biao let out a thunderous shout, and the green tendons on his neck also protruded. With a wave of the steel knife in his hand, the thieves who led about 3,000 people swooped in the direction of the new army's formation!
The men and horses of the two sides were getting closer and closer, and the soldiers of the new army who were at the forefront could clearly see the hideous faces of the murderers who rushed towards the Qing Dynasty.
Previously, most of the official troops in Hedong were weak, and they were often chased and beaten by the thieves under Tian Hu, and some of them surrendered and became strongmen; On the contrary, some people slaughtered good people and cut off their heads and asked the government for merit; Some of them wandered around after fleeing in the battlefield, and many of them deserted mixed in with the displaced people who fled to Taiyuan Mansion from all over the country, but found that Xiao Tang wanted to recruit brave men to form a new army, and gave them a chance to fill their bellies.
However, after all, they fled in fear of war, and because they were afraid of being investigated by military law, some deserters saw that the new army chose to recruit rural farmers with strong physiques and honest temperaments first, so they also lied that they were from the tenant farmers in the towns and villages. Even though these former ruffians were drafted into the ranks, they were shocked to find that the army they had joined was far from being comparable to the lacktony, weakness, and devastation of the troops they had previously served. Some were beheaded for violating military law; Some people are trained to shed their skins under the daily hard training; There are also some people who are now standing in the military formation, facing the Hedong thieves who had killed them in the past, and the fear in their hearts suddenly hit their hearts again.......
Suddenly, a few people in the array of the new army shouted, and those cowards who were accustomed to being ruffians threw down their spears, turned around and fled! But before they could escape from the array, they were shocked to find that two officers with similar appearances had already blocked in front of them!
Dang Shiying and Dang Shixiong, who were supervising the war, suddenly raised their swords and guns, and their subordinates were merciless, and they quickly knocked down and cut down all these soldiers who planned to flee the battlefield to the ground, with splashes of blood dripping down their faces, and Dang Shixiong, who was full of calm and hideous between his eyebrows, raised his head categorically, and he shouted: "Those who are not the main generals in the battle will be killed!" The rest of the army quickly closed the formation, otherwise the military law would be engaged! ”
"Grass his grandmother, this group of mischievous people is really a shame for the Hedong men! If it weren't for the previous officials and soldiers avoiding swords and swords, why would we be forced to do this, Lao Tzu still has a face, how can he be an eggless coward at this time!? ”
Originally shaken by the influence of those deserters, the rest of the new army soldiers recruited from Taiyuan Mansion listened to the "veterans" next to them scolding in a low voice, they swallowed and spit, and clutched the guns in their hands. The formation, which was originally a little loose, immediately stabilized at this time.
Finally, the thieves who came by surprise collided with the soldiers of the new army who were lined up in a gun formation to defend themselves! Originally, Tian Biao wanted to break out from here quickly, but he found that the officers and regiments in front of him were lined up in an insurmountable array, and countless spears cooperated tacitly, like a hedgehog full of spikes, which simply withstood the onslaught of the thieves in Hedong!
The guns were all poked out, and the loud shouts of killing echoed fiercely in the valleys around Dingxiang County, and the expressions of the soldiers of the new army were like a fierce wind, and they were unmoved by the onslaught of the murderers who were used to killing and licking blood in front of them, either killing or being killed, and it seemed that these new army soldiers had gradually forgotten what fear was.
Straight sissy thief! This group of officers and soldiers also seems to be in trouble!
Tian Biao was anxious, he said in his heart that if he wasn't used to killing people, how could he temper his nerves as hard as he could after a few cruel battles!? Most of his subordinates are fierce and murderous Jiangyang thieves, but these murderers are like moths to a fire, and they use their bodies to hit the cold spears erected by the new army, but they still can't shake the strict military discipline!!
The officers and soldiers chasing behind him came immediately, and Tian Biao, who was angry and anxious in his heart, suddenly stared, and he saw that the general who commanded the officers and troops in front of him to set up a gun array for defense was the same officer who was the one he encountered when he was about to rob the logistics supply of the officers and soldiers in Longxi Mountain, Tian Biao immediately raised his knife again, pointed at Wang Wenbin behind the gun array and scolded: "Your subordinates are defeated!" Dare to come and beg for death again! There is a kind of coming out to fight with Lao Tzu again, just you and me! ”
Although Wang Wenbin was almost captured alive under the attack of Tian Biao, Tian Shi and others before, he would not lose to the strongman in front of him if he asked himself, but now listening to Tian Biao's scolding and fighting, a cold smile appeared on the corner of Wang Wenbin's mouth. Regardless of how the other party used foul language and insults, Wang Wenbin turned a deaf ear as if his temperament had changed drastically, he only cared about urging the soldiers in front of him, and shouted in his mouth: "Don't pay attention to the provocation of the thieves and birds, if the thieves kill in front of you, take care of each other according to the method that Wang Jinjiao taught you in the past, and kill the enemy in formation!" ”
Ren Tianbiao scolded dryly, Wang Wenbin did not go out to fight with the enemy general because of the other party's intentional provocation, and the most fierce and warlike thieves under his command were killed and injured at this time, but they still could not break through the gun array set by the new army. Behind him, Xiao Tang, Yao Pingzhong, and Guan Sheng led the men and horses of their subordinates to kill, but finally, the panic on the faces of these fierce strongmen who regarded their lives and other people's lives as child's play became more and more obvious, and their momentum had completely degenerated.
At this time, the formation of the new army suddenly changed.
The generals on both wings of the military formation, who were originally lined up in the front line, saw that Xiao Jiasui, who was sitting in the middle of the army, gave orders, and after the flag officers in the army played the flag, they immediately ordered the troops under their headquarters to start advancing with neat steps, and gradually, the gun array of the new army was about to transform into a "concave" shape and attack the thieves who launched a surprise attack on their own army formation from the left and right sides, just like a trap that had been set up a long time ago, and the beast that stepped into the organ was clamped alive!!
On the left and right flanks, two more generals led their horses out, both of them spears to repel the thieves who pounced on them. Among them, the general on the left wing opened his eyes angrily, and the spear in his hand stabbed out like a poisonous snake out of a hole towards the thieves in front of him, and he also shouted: "Kill a thief bird with a thousand knives!" I, Li Yongqi, will avenge my brother today! ”
Li Yongqi here is brave and unstoppable, and soon more than a dozen thieves were poked and killed by him, and on the right flank of the new army, a loud cheer suddenly broke out.
Although he lacks the experience of fighting life and death, Wang Jin is an old senior head who has been teaching other good generals and soldiers for a long time, he is proficient in all eighteen kinds of martial arts, among which he uses a spear to make the most handy, and now he can also be called a martial arts master.
The shadow of the spear struck out quickly, Wang Jin's every move and every style was just right, he didn't show any flaws at all, but he could quickly see through the enemy's life in front of him! Seeing that thirty or forty thieves were killed one after another under the gunfire of Wang Jin's idle stroll, the soldiers of the new army, who were in awe of him, sighed even more at this time, and praised in their hearts that this serious and prestigious Wang Jin sect leader in his army was really good, and he had to teach him carefully, no matter the martial arts, the ability to lead the soldiers, he would definitely be able to improve greatly!
