(This Monday, please brothers, leave the red ticket!) Thank you, brethren! How do these chapters look and feel? ）

Those generals who were a little sulking just now because they didn't fight for the first place in the battle, at this time they were all cold in their hearts, just now they also felt unfair about He Renlong's arrangement, and no one was dissatisfied with He Renlong at this time, one by one secretly rejoiced, fortunately they were not targeted just now, otherwise, I am afraid that it will be them who will be carried back horizontally at this time.

He Renlong's face sank like water and looked at Lu Pin, who was covered in blood, was carried back from the front by his own soldiers and placed in front of him, Lu Pin's face was very pale, the corners of his mouth were still spitting out blood, and his eyes were slightly open, but his eyes had already been scattered, and the wound on his chest was still slowly oozing blood, but Lu Pin had already gone west.

He Renlong silently turned over and dismounted, bent down to look at the face of Lu Pin who was lying down, stretched out his hand to probe his snort first, and then reached out to Lu Pin's face, gently closed his eyes that were still slightly open, straightened up and waved his hand to the few pro-soldiers who carried Lu Pin back, and several pro-soldiers cried and carried Lu Pin's body down.

"Xingtian Army! Xiao Tianjian! I, He, remember you today! If this revenge is not avenged, I will not be a man! Bai Youliang and He Fang, I order the two of you to lead 300 soldiers each, and transfer another 200 auxiliary soldiers to erect pontoon bridges from both sides of the big stone bridge, force the Wanzi River, and outflank the past from both wings.

The rest of the people rested on the spot and waited for the orders of their own officials! Get ready to attack again! He Renlong gritted his teeth and viciously squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

The two generals under his command immediately clenched their fists and received the order, walked down quickly and began to dispatch the generals, and the officers and soldiers who were shouting the sound of killing just now were dumb at this time, and the artillery that had been engaged in an artillery battle with the Xingtian Army was also withdrawn, and Lu Pin's team of generals, after this battle, was basically disabled, and the four hundred troops lost nearly two percent on the stone bridge, and even the main general Lu Pin was killed on the stone bridge, so that the morale of this team of men and horses has fallen to the bottom, and in a short period of time, they are not needed. So for the time being, they can only be arranged to rest after the battle.

After this first battle, the officers and soldiers on He Renlong's side dropped nearly 100 corpses of officers and soldiers on the stone bridge, some of them were not yet dead, lying in a pool of blood whining and wailing, and a few crows in the sky were croaking and circling, as if they wanted to fall, but some did not dare, but they were also attracted by the smell of blood and did not want to leave, so they had to hover in the sky, waiting for the opportunity to come down and have a full meal, which made the battlefield look much more desolate.

On the west bank of the river, looking at the defeated and retreating officers and soldiers, they let out a sky-shattering cheer, and many officers and soldiers stared at the Xingtian army on the other side of the Wanzi River with hatred, and scolded one after another, but compared with the time when they came just now, the morale of the officers and soldiers dropped a lot, and no one regarded the Xingtian army on the other side as a rabble.

A group of soldiers of the Xingtian Army came out from behind again, and under the command of the officer, they quickly ran to the big stone bridge, cut off the heads of those fallen officers and soldiers, and by the way, stripped off their armor, picked up their weapons, and the stripped corpses were stacked together on the stone bridge, forming a corpse wall, blocking the way of the officers and soldiers, if the officers and soldiers still want to attack the stone bridge, they must climb over this corpse wall, and climb over the corpses.

When the heads of these officers and soldiers were cut, some of the wounded people had not yet lost their breath, and when they saw someone coming, they begged for mercy, but their confessions did not play a role in the slightest, but attracted the thieves to come closer and raise their knives and fall, completely ending their suffering, and some of the wounded soldiers knew that they would not be spared, so they broke their mouths and cursed, and the sound of forgiveness and scolding filled the stone bridge, and many voices stopped abruptly, which made people's hearts feel uncomfortable, and some officers and soldiers even scolded in the battle. scolded the eight generations of the ancestors of the Xingtian Army.

He Renlong looked at the scene on the big stone bridge with a hideous face and gritted teeth, even the beard on his chin was trembling slightly because of anger, the Xingtian army was really arrogant to the extreme, and actually cleaned the battlefield in front of them, looted the armor, and slaughtered the wounded soldiers, clearly insulting their officers and soldiers, but because the other party had artillery to control the battlefield, the officers and troops were newly defeated, and they did not dare to send people to the stone bridge to compete with them for the corpses of their own officers and soldiers, so they could only watch those thieves arrogant.

"Aim at the stone bridge and shoot at Lao Tzu! Scatter them! He Renlong angrily pointed in the direction of the stone bridge and ordered the generals under his command.

A rumbling burst of artillery sounded in front of the official army, and several shells suddenly fell near the stone bridge, some of the shells simply fell dozens of steps away from the stone bridge, stirring up a piece of earth and stones, and some of the shells fell directly in the Wanzi River, stirring up a column of water, but because the distance was too far, there was no point at all, and none of them fell on the stone bridge, so there was no need to talk about what damage would be done to the troops of the Xingtian Army who were cleaning up the battlefield.

The soldiers of the Xingtian Army, who were cleaning the battlefield, laughed loudly at the incompetence of the officers and soldiers, and retreated behind the earthen embankment on the west bank of the river with their things and heads.

Not long after, on the embankment on the west bank of the river, a row of wooden sticks appeared, and on each wooden stick was one or several grinning human heads, and after seeing these heads, the morale of the officers and soldiers under He Renlong's command plummeted, and one by one they became nervous.

Xiao Tianjian stood on the top of the river embankment, looked at the situation of the officers and troops on the other side, and said with a smile: "This time, it is estimated that He Renlong's angry seven orifices are smoking!" See what they do next! Give the order to the brethren to rest as soon as possible, for this battle has just begun, and it is far from over! It is expected that He Renlong will never give up! ”

"General, He Renlong has suffered such a big loss, I don't think he will not attack the river in another way, there is not much water in the Wanzi River now, and there are many places nearby for them to cross the river, and the general, please see, He Renlong's department is retreating, and it seems that the soldiers and horses are being rearranged, we have to guard against it!" Shi Ran watched the official army gradually retreat, as if he was making some adjustments, so he said to Xiao Tianjian, as the sentry general of the scout team, he naturally knew more about the terrain in this area than Xiao Tianjian, so he reminded Xiao Tianjian with some worry.

Xiao Tianjian looked at the other side of the river, and really saw the signs that He Renlong's soldiers and horses were being mobilized, so he nodded and said, "What Shi Ran said is right, we really have to guard against it!" In this way, send two scouts to the north and south along the riverbank, and if they find that the officers and troops are trying to force their way through the two flanks, they will report back immediately! Let's make another arrangement! ”

After a short time, the two scout teams immediately left the big stone bridge and galloped along the west bank of the river in two directions.

He Renlong did not delay too much effort, he is now because of the urgent order of the governor of the three sides, Hong Chengchou, so that he must rush to the Longzhou City before it is broken, back to Longzhou City, if delayed, his deputy general soldier will be considered to be the end of the work, so although the battle just now was frustrated, and he also folded a member of his cronies, which dealt a big blow to the morale of his army, but after a little adjustment, he once again sent a general, led five hundred elite soldiers, and drove towards the direction of Dashiqiao.

And this time, it was obvious that He Renlong was much more obedient, and he didn't dare to be so big anymore, but when he sent this group of subordinates, at the same time, the cannons in the generals were transferred to the front, and several shield carts covered the cannons, and they took the first step towards the direction of the big stone bridge.

And gradually approached the artillery to within 200 steps on the east bank of the river, so that these artillery could effectively reach the formation of the Xingtian army on the west bank of the river.

The attacking team of generals, following behind these artillery, slowly marched towards the direction of the stone bridge, compared to the last swaggering rush, became much more cautious, the proportion of sword players in the military formation increased, and at the same time carried a few temporarily modified shield carts, followed the artillery, and gradually advanced towards the stone bridge.

After watching the movements of the officers and troops of the Longsuo Division, the Xingtian Army in Hexi also immediately began to get nervous, and began to mobilize according to Xiao Tianjian's orders.

According to the terrain on the west bank of the river, Xiao Tianjian ordered Huang Shengqiang to transfer the two Furlong cannons to the north side of the bridge, which enhanced the firepower here, and at the same time moved a few nine-headed birds to the road facing the bridge deck and placed them on both sides of the road, so that these nine-headed birds could face the bridge deck directly, and at the same time sent troops to build a simple artillery bunker for these nine-headed birds at a fast speed, so as not to be injured by the artillery of the officers and soldiers on the opposite bank.

Compared with the Tiger Squat Cannon, Xiao Tianjian's attention to the large lifting gun of the Nine-headed Bird is not lower than that of the Tiger Squat Cannon, to some extent, he prefers to use this kind of Nine-headed Bird, the reason is very simple, although the Nine-headed Bird Gun is thinner, the body tube is longer, and the number of ammunition is not as good as the Tiger Squat Cannon, but it is more convenient to carry in this guy than the Tiger Squat Cannon, and the firing range is far more than the short and thick Tiger Squat Cannon, and the accuracy is also higher, and the function is a bit similar to the battle defense artillery of later generations, which can be directly used in the forefront of combat, The power of providing precision strikes for the army is not too small, so in a narrow area, concentrating a few nine-headed birds and firing at the same time can often have a good killing effect.

So this time all the nine-headed birds in his generals were concentrated at the bridgehead to use, just to block the stone bridge, just now the battle also tested this effect, that team of officers and soldiers under the blow of the nine-headed bird, suffered heavy casualties, two fierce impacts were beaten back by these limited number of nine-headed birds, and seeing the enemy general, was also knocked over to the ground.

Therefore, Xiao Tianjian also attaches great importance to the protection of these nine-headed birds, the firepower of the Xingtian Army is not He Renlong's opponent, fight for consumption, that is looking for death, He Renlong loses, you can find the imperial court to replenish it, if he is exhausted, in addition to grabbing, in the current situation, it is impossible to make up for the loss by himself! Therefore, the Xingtian Army must use good steel on the blade, and also pay special attention to its own protection.

Although the officers and soldiers also realized the importance of artillery for field warfare, and the army was equipped with a lot of artillery, most of these artillery pieces were old-fashioned artillery trucks, suitable for fixed shooting, but it was very inconvenient to move, and the gunners who operated the guns would not be pressed to the front for use, at most they would provide limited fire support to the attacking troops.

In this way, under the advantages of one and the other, the Xingtian Army can occupy a certain firepower advantage in a limited area, which is also the reason why the Xingtian Army dares to fight head-on with He Renlong at Dashiqiao at the moment.
