Xiao Tianjian turned around on his horse, lifted his big gun from the saddle, raised it high, and fought in the direction of the upcoming official army, the tip of the spear flashing with cold light pointed straight to the east, and shouted: "Okay! Then let them come! Kill! ”

The "Kill ......" army once again resounded with a shout, like rolling thunder, resounding throughout the Luohe River.

In a short time, on the eastern avenue, a large black flag jumped up, and in a short time, a group of officers and cavalry slowly rose from the horizon and advanced in rows.

The atmosphere of the battlefield suddenly became solemn, Xiao Tianjian carried a spear, and immediately looked at the opposite side in front of the battle.

These officers and cavalry who rushed to the battlefield were not yet armoured at this time, and when they arrived at the battlefield in a group, they also grabbed the reins of their horses hundreds of paces away, although the formation was not as neat as the Xingtian Army's infantry and military formation, but it also exuded an awe-inspiring murderous aura.

With the waving of the official and military flags, the officers and cavalry who went to the battlefield jumped off their horses one by one, quickly hung the material bags under the horses' heads, and let their horses rest for a while before the battle, and at the same time eat some fine materials to replenish their physical strength, and these officers and soldiers also revealed a kind of arrogance that only strong armies have, as if they did not put the soldiers of the Xingtian Army in their eyes at all.

This battle is also deeply pressure for Xiao Tianjian, after all, in front of him, this Guanning iron cavalry enjoys a good reputation under the great tomorrow, and the rebels from all walks of life are in front of them, almost all of them are returning home, this elite cavalry, in such an apocalypse, has become the last straw of the Ming Dynasty, and Lu Xiangsheng also relied on them, in Henan repeatedly defeated the rebels from all walks of life, and often won more with less, killing the rebels from all walks of life.

When dealing with such an enemy, the method adopted by the rebel army is often to combine several groups of men and horses, with ten times or even dozens of times the force, to block them, and set up an ambush to surround them, and then rely on the number of people to crush them, but even so, this way of fighting is often lost, not only can not eat the enemy, but is killed all over the field, and finally collapses and runs away, such an example whether it is against Zu Kuan's department, or against Cao Wenzhao, who has been killed in battle, such a thing has happened, The reason why Cao Wenzhao was defeated last time can only be said to be a fluke by Li Zicheng.

Today, although the Xingtian Army led by Xiao Tianjian seems to have a slight advantage in terms of strength, but the soldiers under his command are mostly infantry troops, on the battlefield of this era, anyone knows that when the cavalry is against the infantry, it often occupies a huge advantage, and even there are special times when dozens of cavalry can break the formation of thousands of infantry troops, not to mention that this time they will face the most powerful Guanning Iron Cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, so in this case, the strength of the Xingtian Army is at an absolute disadvantage, When Xiao Tianjian learned of the enemy this time, he already knew the danger of this battle.

But he also has no way to retreat this time, Yongning County he must defend, this is the basis for him to lead his troops south this time, once he loses, then the entire plan to go south to the Central Plains this time, then it may be a complete failure.

If this battle is defeated by Zu Kuan's troops, then it is not a matter of running away, in the face of the opponent's absolute mobility advantage, once it fails, it will be the end of the entire army, and the Xingtian Army, which is dominated by the infantry army under his command, will not even have a chance to escape from the battlefield at all, and will only become the target of the slaughter of these Guanning iron cavalry.

Not only did he know this, but the generals under his command also knew it, but he still resolutely chose to come to meet him, because he was still full of confidence in the army he had built.

But when the real enemy appeared in front of him, whether it was Xiao Tianjian or the soldiers under his command, he still felt a strong pressure rushing to his face, and he couldn't help but feel his breath suffocated, and everyone's faces became solemn, fortunately, Xiao Tianjian had long been accustomed to this kind of life-fighting thing, although he was a little shocked by the Guan Ning Iron Cavalry on the opposite side, but his complexion still did not change, and he slowly flicked his horse's head, and showed a smile in the face of his soldiers, and suddenly laughed loudly: "What?" Are you scared? You were all shouting for joy just now, but when you saw them coming, you were frightened? Remember Lao Tzu's words, we are an undefeated Xingtian army, no matter what army is in front, in front of us, they can only be defeated! ”

Hearing Xiao Tianjian's words that were almost ridiculous, the army suddenly felt relieved, after all, since the Xingtian Army came into the army, no matter what kind of enemy they faced, the Xingtian Army has never been defeated, the last time the 10,000 official army entered Yang City, they were in the case of weak troops, and finally killed the official army and lost a lot, and now although the other party is a strong army, but the strength is still below them, but a little scared, and suddenly all the armies are a little ashamed, so that the first time I saw the opponent's depressive feeling, Suddenly they were swept away in the military formation, and the generals suddenly changed their relaxed expressions one by one.

And the generals of Zu Kuan's department who stood opposite them arrived at the battlefield, while resting their horsepower, they were also looking at the Xingtian Army opposite, for them, the Xingtian Army in front of them also gave them a great sense of shock, in these years, following Lu Xiangsheng on the way to the south and north to fight against the thief army, they can be said to have not seen what kind of thief army, but today when they saw the Xingtian army that appeared on the opposite side, they were all a little surprised.

Because they never thought that a thief army would be so neat, from their point of view, the opposite side of the Xingtian army array lined up in rows, spears like forest shields like walls, there is no trace of chaos, all kinds of flags fluttering in the wind in the military formation, making the sound of hunting, the whole army is silent, from the eyes of these battle-hardened officers and soldiers, it can be seen at a glance that this is an extremely well-trained soldier and horse, by no means comparable to the thieves they have encountered before.

This situation couldn't help but make them feel a little nervous, although they were all ironclad heavy cavalry, but they also knew that when facing an elite infantry army in a tight formation, they would not necessarily be able to take advantage of it.

The most important thing in the use of cavalry is to first break up the opponent's formation, and then wave the army to cover the kill, if you want to defeat the opponent, when charging the formation, for them these cavalry, it is also necessary to pay a considerable price.

Zu Kuan straddled the horse's back, looked at the large array of the Xingtian Army in front of him from a distance, and the expression on his face became serious, on the way to lead his troops, he didn't expect this thief army to be so clean, the whole army exuded an aura that made him familiar, this breath is an indescribable murderous aura, only in the army that has been in a hundred battles and won for a long time, can only feel the kind of murderous aura, which made him feel very surprised in his heart, so he had to put away the contempt in his heart, began to pay attention to the thief army in front of him.

Like him, the generals under his command put away their scornful expressions and began to pick up their horses to the sides behind him, and looked at each other together.

"My lord, this thief army doesn't seem to be easy to get along with!"

"Yes, my lord, what is the origin of this thief army? Why haven't we heard of it before? Look at the posture, these thieves are all elite soldiers! ”

Zu Kuan said in a deep voice: "You can't underestimate the thief army in front of you, after we went south, basically in Henan to suppress bandits, but this thief army has basically been entrenched in Shanxi for the past two years, although it is not famous in Henan, but it is indeed famous in Shanxi, at the beginning of this year, it was in Shanxi Yangcheng defeated Zuo Guangxian, Xu Dingguo, Hu Dawei and other road officials, it is even more famous!" And you rarely know about such things, so today we need to be cautious and not to repeat the mistakes of those colleagues! ”

After hearing this, the generals all suddenly looked solemn, closed their mouths and continued to look at the other side.

After a while, one of Zu Kuan's subordinate generals said, "How can this thief army array look so weird? The front and back inverted word arrangement, aren't you afraid that we will break each one? ”

"Yes, that's true, the big array of these thieves has not been seen before, it stands to reason that their infantry army meets our cavalry, if they want not to be crushed, they should be in one place, and it is reasonable to put out a circle formation, don't the thief chieftains on the opposite side know how to arrange the troops? Or are you just scared silly? Hum! Judging from the humble position, this army of thieves is okay on the surface, but in fact it is just a show! The thief chief of the thief army on the other side is probably not a person who knows how to soldier! If you don't get it right, it's just a bluff!

You see, these thieves don't know where to get these tattered birds, this thing is on our side of the Guan Ning Army, it is simply a decoration, a bird, a rabbit is estimated to be good, and they are actually held by them as a treasure, do they think they are holding these rags, relying on this to think that they can defeat us? Hey! Let's let them see our three-eyed guns in a moment! Let them see what it means to be a great guy! After watching for a while, the other general was a little surprised, then began to relax again, and spoke, with a look of disdain on his face, and his words immediately drew laughter from some of the generals around him.
