The first to bear the brunt, leading the more than 100 strong horsemen who rushed out of the dock wall galloped on horseback, and the iron spear in his hand was also as fast as lightning to swallow and stab, every time he stabbed out, there must be a Xia army knight who was shot and fell from his horse, the horse neighed and the blood splashed, although the number of light horsemen was not large, but for a time it also made the Xia army rear formation is a rout.

The archers above the dock wall were also shooting in response, Yao Pingzhong, Niu Gao and the man who led more than 100 strong horsemen to rush into the battle rushed to kill, and then ordered his subordinates to drive the horses in a roundabout way, and they must not fall into the layers of interception of the enemy. In the case of the disadvantage of the troops, now Yao Pingzhong and others can only lead the light cavalry to drive the vertical and flying, and buy time to wear out the time to come to the aid after the army is reported.

Finally in the Xia army array, a sharp-eyed officer suddenly shouted a warning, originally from all directions to Yao Pingzhong, Niu Gao, and the dock wall rushed out of the cavalry led by the man to cover up and kill, and suddenly saw a gloomy sky under the dome, there was a red military flag suddenly raised from the other end of the horizon, under the banner, the black pressure on a large number of heavy armored cavalry was rushing over the mountains and fields, but seeing the horse's hooves flying, mud and grass splashing, the killing machine seemed to fill the heaven and earth in a flash, the pieces of sharp spears, shiny steel knives were raised high, A chilling glow that flickers with palpitations.

In the rear of the Song army's cavalry formation, the red tassels sprinkled on Fan Yang's felt hats seemed to converge into a sea of fire, and a large number of soldiers marched forward with neat steps, holding flags and drums, horns and contending, and the armor on the crossbowmen, spearmen, and sword and shield hands in the army formation was also sonorous, but seeing such a scene of army mobilization, I couldn't help but be frightened!

In front of the Song army's infantry formation, Xiao Tang rode his horse and rushed out, he stared at the Xia army around the dock wall in front of him for a moment, and then pointed forward with the chiseled gold spear in his hand, but listening to the bowstring and the machine burst into succession, a Pengli crossbow arrow cluster roared out from behind him, mixed with a screaming sound and pounced on the enemy, and the arrow rain came one after another, making hundreds of Xia army horses and infantry soldiers were shot on their backs.

Seeing that the enemy army was wrapped in a killing cyclone in the sky, even if they were about to kill in front of them, the soldiers in the Xia army's formation began to retreat one after another. Originally, after these troops broke the Xiao Pass, they only came to plunder the grain and grass materials of the villages and towns under the rule of the Zhenrong army, but now a large number of Song troops have been killed, and they have taken the lead, and the generals of the various departments of the Xia army also made a decision, and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses under their command to retreat, intending to preserve their strength and wait for the convergence with other troops, and then fight and kill with this group of Song troops.

Xiao Tang soon discovered the intentions of the Xia State's soldiers and horses, and he immediately issued an order, ordering the heavy cavalry and light cavalry troops in the front to quickly shrink the formation and form a wedge-shaped shock formation to pursue the enemy. The Xia army fought and retreated, and many infantry troops and phalanxes immediately gathered together, and slowly began to retreat to the north. The charging cavalry of the Song army swept the phalanx of the Xia army and galloped past from the two wings first, rounded the flanks, galloped and shot, but the Xia army that stabilized the formation also shot a rain of arrows in the sky, and some people on both sides were hit by arrows from time to time and fell to the ground, until a group of cavalry swept through the Xia army's formation from the oblique side, and began to engage with the enemy infantry on the edge of the array.

The Qinglong Glaive Knife in Guan Sheng's hand slashed left and right, and the blood and light splashed, and dozens of soldiers in the corner of the enemy phalanx were separated by him, and the flesh and blood flew sideways. With his superb knife skills, he raised a burst of blood rain non-stop, and then the tiger roared, swinging the knife and slashing the spear stabbed by the famous Xia army horseman, and swept away, and after a head suddenly flew up, a cavity of blood also sprayed high in the sky! Guan Sheng turned the treasure knife, blood splattered, and the enemies in close proximity were also chopped and killed like grass.

However, with Guan Sheng's bravery, he rode and swept the formation, although it was like a bamboo, but while the cavalry array attacked the flank of the Xia army in a roundabout way, there were also many light cavalry soldiers who could not resist the spears and knives probing from all sides, and more than 100 people immediately fell to the ground with men and horses, drowning in the dense Xia army's formation. Although Xiao Tang led the army to suddenly lead his troops to force the Xia army to retreat, this time the dock wall under the rule of the Zhenrong army was only an encounter, not a well-prepared annihilation battle, it was only with a few teams of horse light cavalry to pursue the plundering formation, and then with bows and arrows and crossbows, it only made the enemy army leave down more than a thousand corpses, but most of the troops retreated in time, when Xiao Tang led the battalions to rush to the dock wall not far away, the Xia army had also retreated to a distance of two or three miles away.

Xiao Tang also thought that the enemy's position was unknown, and it was possible to fall into the enemy's ambush if he pursued and fought fiercely, so that the cavalry led by Guan Sheng and other generals could return to the army. At this time, Niu Gao also rode his horse to Xiao Tang, although the feather arrow on his shoulder kept shaking with the bump of the war horse, but Niu Gao was unaware, and said to Xiao Tang: "Fortunately, my brother came in time, so I didn't let this place be broken by the summer thief!" ”

Xiao Tang saw blood flowing from the wound of the arrow cluster inserted in Niu Gao's shoulder, and hurriedly ordered Lang Zhong, who was personally summoned to accompany the army, to treat Niu Gao's arrow sores, and said: "You Niu Heizi, although you are brave in battle, you must also be cautious. ”

The military doctor Lang Zhong also came in time, Niu Gao immediately jumped off the horse, took off his armor and tore off the robe on his body, revealing half of his black muscles, and his body was already drenched in sweat and blood. Before Lang Zhong could speak, Niu Gao sat cross-legged on the ground, straightened up the bloody arms at his shoulders, and asked Lang Zhong to pull out the arrow for him here, bandage the wound, and grin: "It's just a small injury, why is it tight?" My brother came quickly, but if it was too late, I could kill more summer thieves! ”

At this time, Yao Pingzhong and the man who led the army Jianrong Weiwu Wall also rode a horse to Xiao Tang, Niu Gao saw the man, and praised again: "You also bring seeds, and you dare to ride out and fight side by side with us, it seems that you are also a good man!" ”

Xiao Tang and the henchmen and generals present saw that the man was born with a round head and a thick back, and his eyebrows were clear and spirited, his head was wrapped in a green gauze scarf, and his dignified body of more than eight feet was draped with a silk robe and a half-body covered with blood-stained iron armor, and the man saw Niu Gao sitting on the ground, shirtless and revealing half of his black tendons, pulling arrows and bandaging his face, and he couldn't help but praise secretly. Immediately, the man looked at Xiao Tang as if he was the commander of the Song army, he immediately rolled the saddle and dismounted, and Nabai said, "If there is no public to save each other, the villain and the brothers in the dock wall are only afraid that they will be more auspicious and less auspicious, and the sky is also a great saving grace, and the villain will feel guilty!" ”

And Xiao Tang saw that this man did not seem to be a forbidden general, and heard Niu Gaozan say that he only led a hundred horses to dare to raid and break into the formation, regardless of martial arts and courage, he was indeed a hero, and he also had the heart to make friends, so he asked: "Look, this strong man doesn't seem to be a marching general, I don't know what to call it?"

The man immediately bowed again: "Don't dare to bother this minister, the villain's ancestor is from Pengyuan, Ningzhou, and later migrated to Gongzhou, surnamed Li, named Xiaozhong, because the family has some small wealth to accept the heroes of Guanxi, and is promoted by Yiyou, but the villain is called a ranger Li Xiaozhong." Because the Xia thief committed the border, the villain was also born in Baoyi Village, so he led Qin Fenglu to rule more than 2,000 militia groups to help the officers and soldiers resist the enemy, and did not want the Xia thief to be powerful, but was trapped here, fortunately, the generals rushed to help in time, but they did not dare to ask the general's surname? ”
