Chapter Sixty-Eight: Soldiers Don't Get Tired of Deceit

(See Monday again, brothers, for a red vote!) )

Xiao Tianjian stood under the Xingtian banner, slightly loosened his clenched fist, at this time his heart was in his stomach, just now when he saw this group of enemy cavalry rushing towards Zhao Erdonkey's sentry and horses, to say that he was not nervous, that was.

After all, they have never really faced the enemy's cavalry charge, but in their weekday training, they have practiced how to deal with the enemy's cavalry, and today he is a little worried about letting the two sentries Zhao Erdonkey and Li Xuanzhu go up to deal with the enemy's cavalry.

Even he was prepared for the worst, once the two sentinels of Zhao Erdonkey or Li Xuanzhu were scattered by the enemy cavalry, he would immediately send Yan Chongxi and Luo Li to press up against this enemy cavalry, and then send a scout team to bypass and flank this enemy cavalry, but now it seems that his worries are a little redundant, Zhao Erdonkey, this guy actually lived up to expectations, led his troops to block this enemy cavalry, and also caused a lot of damage to the other party, this one is down, The other side lost more than a dozen cavalry, and it was estimated that the officers and soldiers on the mountain were going to beat their chests in distress.

As a cavalryman, they are the elite of all armies, and they will never be able to replenish it in a short period of time if they lose so much at once, even for the officers and soldiers, it is absolutely uncomfortable to suffer such losses, so this time, he Xingtian Army has the upper hand again.

After this charge, the cavalry of the remaining officers and soldiers were shocked one by one, and they all turned their horses and circled their horses, galloping away from this thief army formation that frightened them, and that Situ Liang was also shocked and shouted loudly to call them to gather and count their losses, after such a rough count, he was really going to vomit blood.

He was ordered to bring down more than 50 cavalry, but only one by one, not only was he not able to disperse the thief army, but he did not even break up a small formation of the thief army, but he lost more than a dozen of his subordinates, how did he go back and explain to He Fang! You must know that these cavalry are He Fang's hard work, and after losing so much at once, He Fang estimates that he should want to bite him to death at this time.

After General Situ Liang left the battlefield, he gathered up this group of frightened subordinates, gathered at the foot of the mountain far away, and looked at each other with different expressions, all of them didn't know what to do.

At this time, He Fang, who was watching the battle on the mountain, was indeed gritting his teeth as Situ Liang thought, and at the same time his heart was full of shock, his more than 50 cavalry were just going to impact the enemy's small army formation of more than 100 people, not only could not disperse the other party and kill it, but was beaten by the other party, and lost almost three of his manpower at once, but only in exchange for the price of a few casualties on the other side, how could he be embarrassed by such a result! Not to mention that this face can't be hung up, this loss alone makes him unbearable.

"Damn it!" He was in a hurry, and unconsciously broke the horsewhip in his hand into two pieces, and gritted his teeth and cursed angrily.

"Send an order to Situ Liang and tell him! Let him stop charging for the time being, gather cavalry and follow Liu Wanqing's action! Let Liu Wanqing lead his troops to rush into battle, and take advantage of the chaos to lead his troops to cover up and kill, if this is the case again, let him do it himself! Come back, I'll kill him and make it one! He Fang threw the broken horsewhip on the ground and gave a sharp order to one of the soldiers beside him.

The soldiers bowed down and clenched their fists to receive the order, turned over and jumped on a war horse, immediately rushed down the hillside, rushed to Situ Liang, who was panicking at the foot of the mountain, and passed He Fang's words to Situ Liang intact.

Situ Liang's face changed several times, gritted his teeth and clenched his fists and said, "Please go back and tell Mr. He Qian, Situ Liang knows what to do!" Thank you Mr. He Qian for giving Xia Guan this opportunity, Xia Guan will never let down the adults again! ”

Liu Wanqing led his soldiers to rush down the mountain with Situ Liang, seeing Situ Liang leading the cavalry to step into battle, but it ended up like this, he suddenly felt furious in his heart, and couldn't help but regret his choice just now.

The reason why he asked Zhan to lead his subordinates to rush down to the battle was to ask for battle merits and to attack the thief army under the mountain, but he didn't expect that the combat effectiveness of this thief army was far beyond his expectations.

More than 50 cavalry attacked more than 100 thief soldiers, not only did they not disperse the other party and kill each other, but they were beaten by such a small thief army, and more than a dozen elite horsemen were damaged.

So he no longer dared to underestimate this thief army, after coming down the mountain, there was still a distance of 200 steps from the thief army, so he raised his hand to stop the advance of his soldiers, and ordered the soldiers to form a formation on the spot, and more than 150 officers and soldiers immediately crowded together and started to form a formation again according to Liu Wanqing's instructions.

Liu Wanqing also saw that the thief army was quite well-trained, and the military discipline was strict, which was only seen in his life, and it was not as easy to be shaken as the general thief army.

After seeing the performance of the thief army just now, Liu Wanqing had the idea of retreating, but at this time He Fang did not order Mingjin to withdraw his troops, if he led his troops back to the mountain without authorization, it would be the crime of fear of war, and he would lose his head if he didn't do it, so at this time, although Liu Wanqing regretted his decision to go down the mountain rashly, but it was already difficult to ride a tiger, so he had to continue to lead his troops to continue to fight against the thief army, and after reorganizing the formation, Liu Wanqing saw Situ Liang leading more than 30 cavalry and returned to his formation. So his heart settled down somewhat, and with these cavalry covering his rear team, he was no longer too worried about his rear team being outflanked by the thief army, so this mood was also a little calmer.

He Fang looked at Liu Wanqing's whole team at the foot of the mountain, nodded slightly and praised secretly, Liu Wanqing is a long-term battle-hardened general, seeing that the thief army is powerful, he immediately adjusted the formation, in this way, it also reassured him, just now he didn't have the idea of letting his subordinate Mingjin withdraw Liu Wanqing's team, but thinking of Situ Liang's defeat in the first battle, if he just withdrew Liu Wanqing like this, his subordinates, who were already not high morale, must have even more morale, and he urgently needs Liu Wanqing to win a battle for him. Even if it's just a small victory, it's not too late for him to withdraw Liu Wanqing at that time, which is why he let Situ Liang stay below and follow Liu Wanqing to make meritorious contributions after seeing Situ Liang's defeat.

"Beat the drums, cheer for Mr. Liu!" He Fang turned his head and shouted to the snare drummer.

After receiving the order, the drummer immediately threw off his clothes, revealed his strong muscles, went into battle shirtless, raised two drumsticks, and swung his arms vigorously to hit the big drum of the army.

"Knock, knock, knock......" The dull sound of war drums rumbled down from the mountain, and entered the ears of Liu Wanqing at the foot of the mountain, Liu Wanqing gritted his teeth, he knew that this was He Fang urging him to go into battle to kill the enemy, and knew that it was impossible to retract today.

"Brothers, the thieves are not but Erer, and I am afraid that they will do something! Kill them all with your own officer! Kill! ......" Liu Wanqing stood under the banner of the team, drew his waist knife and raised it high above his head, and shouted loudly at his subordinates.

Although the officers and soldiers of this Xingtian army have begun to feel fear, but there is an order from the upper peak, let them go up, unless they turn around and surrender now, or they will only have one way left to go forward and fight.

Human nature, once it is pushed to the extreme, sometimes it will burst out with quite terrible power, seeing that it is impossible to withdraw, their officers are forcing them to go into battle again, in addition to desperately, there may be a way to live, the officers and soldiers can't think of a better way, some people will be crossed, shouted: "Brothers, it's a big deal that the head has fallen off the bowl and a big scar, I'm afraid!" ”

So just now, these officers and soldiers who were still cowering and didn't dare to step forward were also aroused to be ferocious, they used to chase the thief army and cut it, why should they be afraid of this thief army today? So the officers and soldiers of this group of officers and soldiers shouted one after another, and the shouts of killing became a loud one, and with the sword and card players in front, they began to step like a wall towards the opposite Xingtian Army.

The terrain here is not too advantageous for the Xingtian Army, although they have more troops than this group of officers and soldiers, but the terrain restricts their deployment, and the only people who can really engage this enemy army are the two sentinels in front, Zhao Erdonkey and Li Xuanzhu, and the rest of the people must be in the rear.

Xiao Tianjian sat on a tall horse, and the two sentries Zhao Erdonkey and Li Xuanzhu, who were arrayed in front of him, looked ahead, and saw that the group of officers and soldiers coming down from the mountain had advanced towards them, so he immediately looked around, leaned down and whispered a few words to the iron head standing beside him.

Tietou froze for a moment, but immediately nodded to show that he had understood, so he ordered a personal guard to come over, and exchanged words with him, and the personal guard was also flustered at first, but immediately showed a smug smile on his face, nodded again and again, and immediately ran forward.

After Li Xuanzhu listened to the words of this guard, his two eyes glared and shouted, "What? ...... general told me to wait? ”

"Shhhh Be quiet! This is an order from the general himself! It's up to you to do it! The soldiers hurriedly stopped Li Xuanzhu's shouting and said to him in a low voice.

Zhao Erdonkey had already led his subordinates and Li Xuanzhu's people to form a team according to Xiao Tianjian's order at this time, and after hearing this, his eyes rolled and he immediately said to Li Xuanzhu: "Brother Li, don't say much, the general has an order, I will do it!" When did the general make us suffer! ”

Li Xuanzhu nodded frustratedly and said, "That's it!" That's it! Just do what the general says! Damn, why did you let me run into this? What a grievance! ”
