Chapter 390: Qiu Yu's Hatred

When Li Xuan personally commanded the Chinese troops such as the personal guard battalion, the cavalry battalion, the baggage regiment and even the artillery battalion to form a formation and prepare to meet the attack of the Ming cavalry.

On the other side of the battlefield, the Fifth Infantry Battalion was also under Qiu Yu's department engaged in extremely fierce hand-to-hand combat!

When Qiu Yu led everyone to charge, he was riding a Mongolian horse, which was much taller than the southwest horse ridden by other people, and its shoulder height was probably one meter three.

But now the tall horse was lying on the ground, and the huge wound on his chest made it scream constantly, and at the same time its hooves struggled to get up, but no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't get up.

Not far in front of it, Qiu Yu, who was dressed in scale armor, wielded a waist knife and was fighting with a heavy armor sword and shield soldier of the pseudo-Tang Thief Army.

Although Qiu Yu's age is not young, his martial arts are not bad, and he has blocked the long knife of the pseudo-Tang thief saber and shield soldier with a slightly young face under the helmet in front of him several times.

Then he grabbed a gap, and stabbed the long knife in his hand directly into a gap in the connection of the armor of the pseudo-Tang sword and shield soldier on the opposite side, and with the blood oozing out, the young pseudo-Tang thief soldier in front of him didn't even let out a scream, and directly collapsed on the ground.

Drawing the steel knife in his hand, he looked back and saw that the soldiers on both sides were fighting together, but more soldiers were lying on the ground, some were silent, some were still twitching, and more were making different terrible screams.

Among the dead and wounded lying on the ground, the people wearing the uniforms of the Ming army accounted for the vast majority, and there were not so many soldiers of the pseudo-Tang Thief Army.

In the rear of the battle between the two sides, there was a group of more than 2,000 Ming troops, who were chased by a group of pseudo-Tang thieves with only more than 100 people, and ran all the way towards the Tonggu Acropolis.

Looking back, there was already despair in his eyes!

3,000 people attacked, but it was only more than 300 personal soldiers led by himself and several other high-ranking generals who really rushed up to fight with the puppet Tang thief army, and more than 2,000 people in the rear did not rush up at all, and they were about 100 meters behind.

The puppet Tang thief army on the opposite side still divided a thousand men to try to intercept them at first, but only a few minutes later, half of them had already turned around and turned back to deal with the main force in the north, and only about five hundred people remained to rush up and fight them.

The next battle situation was almost predictable, Qiu Yu and the personal soldiers led by them were subjected to intensive musket and shotgun fire on the way to the charge, and more than 300 people had not yet rushed to the front of the 500 thief army, and dozens of people had already fallen, and after the two sides approached to start hand-to-hand combat, although Qiu Yu himself was already the first soldier and personally killed, but it was still completely defeated by the current 500 pseudo-Tang thief army like chopping melons and vegetables, and in the end they could only fight separately.

It's just a matter of dozens of breaths, and the elite composed of more than 300 personal soldiers led by him has already been declared completely defeated, most of them were killed and wounded on the spot, and the few survivors are also facing more sieges from the puppet Tang thief army.

Up to now, those pseudo-Tang thief troops even dared to send more than 100 people to launch an active attack on the more than 2,000 Ming troops in the rear, and what made him even more desperate was that his more than 2,000 people actually fled without a fight like the last time.

More than 2,000 people were so frightened by the more than 100 pseudo-Tang thieves that they turned around and ran!

Such a battle, such a scene, makes him desperate!

At this time, several soldiers of the Tang New Army discovered Qiu Yu's specialness, because the armor and clothing on his body announced his special identity, this person is definitely a middle and senior general of the Ming Army, and more importantly, Qiu Yu is still surrounded by two surviving soldiers.

The existence of these three people was extremely conspicuous on this small battlefield, and soon seven or eight soldiers of the Datang New Army rushed up with spears and swords and shields.

Four or five of the spearmen approached for a while, and it seemed simple, well, it was indeed a simple stab, which was to leave his last two soldiers lying in a pool of blood!

When the spearmen stabbed, two soldiers of the Datang New Army armed with shields and steel knives also rushed up, raising the steel knives in their hands while holding the shields and slashing at their heads.

These two sword and shield soldiers seem to be heavy armor sword and shield soldiers, but in fact, they were still heavy armor spearmen dozens of seconds ago, but after the formation charged, after entering the melee stage, they just threw down their spears, raised their shields and waist knives, and turned into heavy armor sword and shield soldiers, and fought in coordination with the light armor spearmen.

Although they are only temporarily transferred to heavy armor sword and shield soldiers, in fact, they will also accept the relevant combat skills of sword and shield soldiers during training, but in general, they are not as skilled as professional heavy armor sword and shield soldiers.

When these two soldiers slashed over with long knives, their movements were almost flawed in Qiu Yu's opinion, if it was in normal times, as long as he was given a certain amount of time, he could put these two thieves in two, but so what!

They weren't fighting alone, but there were four comrades in the rear with spears.

They are looking for a gap to stab Qiu Yu!

Two fists were invincible to four hands, and after trying his best to dodge a few breaths, he finally couldn't resist and was slashed on the shoulder by the long knife of a sword and shield soldier!

Although the armor on his body blocked the knife and failed to allow the long knife to directly split his shoulder in half, the heavy knife momentum still made his body sink involuntarily, and his movements inevitably stagnated for a while.

However, in such a short breath, a spear hit him directly in the abdomen, and the powerful spear pierced directly through the armor, and then the spearhead pierced into his abdomen.

The sharp pain was transmitted to his mind in an instant, but it didn't make Qiu Yu scream, he just let out a muffled snort.

But in the next moment, as the spear was drawn, he seemed to feel that the strength of his body was also drawn out with the spear, and he stumbled and fell directly to the ground.

However, he still stuck the knife in the ground, leaning on the steel knife in his hand, he tried not to completely fall down, but he already felt that the blood had begun to gush out, staining his inner lining and armor, and finally flowing on the ground, warming the cold earth.

He was half-kneeling, looking up at the few pseudo-Tang thief soldiers in front of him, these people did not send out a happy expression of defeating a strong enemy, especially a high-ranking general like himself, as he expected, but still expressionless, one of the spearmen after he half-knelt down, without much reason, waved the spear in his hand again, and then the spear went straight to Qiu Yu's chest!

Qiu Yu saw this blow, and the instinct of the martial artist told him that at this time he should roll on the spot to avoid the attack of this spear, and then stood up, using the round shield in his hand as a support, and directly rushed forward a few steps, as long as he rushed up a few steps, he had absolute certainty to cut down this pseudo-Tang thief army spearman with a knife.

But alas, reason and instinct told him that he should do this, but he couldn't!

The wounded are simply immobile!

Although the body moved to the side as much as possible, it still couldn't dodge the spear!

He could almost watch the spear stab through his chest, and he could even hear the sound of his own heartbreaking: I hate ...... I hate ......

In the next moment, he couldn't see the light with his eyes open, and his eyes turned into darkness, and the noise on the battlefield disappeared without a trace in this instant.

After Qiu Yu fell, he still seemed to be looking at the battlefield with his eyes open!

To the north of the battlefield, less than 300 meters away from him, the main force of the Ming army was engaged in a fierce close battle with the troops of the new army of the Tang Dynasty, and the number of people on both sides combined exceeded 10,000.

The whole scene seems to be extremely chaotic, but if you look closely, you will find that the more than 10,000 people are actually still fighting in infantry phalanxes, and there is no situation where the soldiers are fighting on their own.

Especially on the side of the new army of the Tang Dynasty, the infantry phalanx with each infantry battalion as the core of the battle, the distance between the phalanxes varied from 100 meters, the musketeers fired long-range shots, the spearmen protected in close combat, and the phalanx and the phalanx cooperated with each other.

It is said that hand-to-hand combat is progressing, but in fact, except for a few troops, most of them did not engage in hand-to-hand combat with the infantry of the Ming army, and the main casualties were still mainly the shooting of musketeers.

On the other side of the battlefield, more than 1,500 Ming cavalry were advancing slowly, and their target was the left flank of the new army of the Tang Dynasty.

In front of these cavalry is the first infantry battalion of the Datang New Army, and in the rear position, there are the personal guard battalion, the cavalry battalion, and the baggage regiment, with a total of more than 3,000 troops.

Even if these cavalry are just marching forward and have not yet started to run, the momentum of more than 1,000 cavalry moving is still earth-shattering, and even attracts the attention of high-level generals on both sides of the entire battlefield.

On the side of the new army of the Tang Dynasty, Hao Bonian commanded the eight battalion guns gathered with a cautious face, the first infantry battalion has completed the formation change, the formation has changed very closely, the direction pointed by the spears and muskets is the direction of the Ming cavalry attack, if the Ming army attacks, they will be the first to bear the impact from the Ming cavalry!

In the direction of the Chinese army led by Li Xuan personally, the artillerymen of the artillery battalion have completed the transfer of their guns and are reloading, preparing to launch an artillery bombardment on the attacking Ming cavalry.

The cavalry team of the guard battalion and the two hundred cavalry of the cavalry battalion were gathered together, and the three hundred cavalry were waiting for them!

With the baggage regiment as the core, 1,800 soldiers formed a three-infantry phalanx, and together with the 1st Infantry Battalion, they formed an infantry array facing northwest.

There were more than 3,500 soldiers of the Datang New Army who were dispatched to deal with the impact of the Ming cavalry at the first time!
