Chapter 361: Where is the Prime Minister's Banner? 【Subscription】
Wang Yuan was furious. Today's battle was very fierce, Chang Jie's army suffered heavy losses, and his soldiers and horses also suffered a lot of losses. Seeing that the enemy can be killed, the banner of the thief leader is in sight, and cutting down that banner will definitely make the Liangshan Bo army feel very confused. He is not an ignorant person, and he knows that the current situation is not good, and Liu Zhongwu's choice is prudent.
But the banner of the thief chief is in sight, it is only one step away, at this time to collect troops and return to the battle, isn't it "for the mountains and nine thousands, the success is short"?
But Wang Yuan did not dare not return to the army. Liu Zhongwu's military orders were something he could not afford to disobey.
The Yang brothers are the same, no matter how hard they scolded Liu Zhongwu in their mouths and hearts, they obediently gave the order to stop attacking and retreat in their behavior. The three of them didn't pay much attention to the Liangshan army on the opposite side, because they all thought that they had crippled the Liangshan army on the other side.
Indeed, looking at the remaining strength of the front line of the Liangshan Army, even if Lu Qian ordered the front-line troops to fight back at this time, it would only be useless and could not create a real threat to the Western Army at all. But the generals of the Western Army on the opposite side couldn't have imagined that Lu Qian still held a trump card in his hand and had not played it.
"Get up, put on your armor—"
Wang Tiezhu, who was taller than Lu Qian and looked like a hairy bear, shouted loudly. This person is the second big Han that Lu Qian saw after Ren Yuan, and he is a common man in Dongping Mansion. When he joined Liangshanbo in winter, he was as thin as a hemp pole, and no one expected that this guy would gain weight so quickly after eating and drinking. Because of his tall stature and great strength, he was first selected into the personal guard battalion, and then sent to the iron cavalry battalion, and after three months of training, he was officially selected into the iron cavalry battalion.
It has not been more than two months, and he has sat in the right position of the Iron Cavalry Battalion with undeniable strength.
Because this guy is not only tall, but also powerful, not weaker than Lu Zhishen and Wu Song. Although he has no martial arts and rough skills, he will reduce ten times with one force. A mace of fifty or sixty pounds is like a wooden stick in his hand, but it is enough to hit a person. And the iron cavalry battalion is an armored cavalry, and this guy is covered with a layer of leather armor under the iron armor, and above the battle array is like an invulnerable humanoid tank, which is extremely powerful in fighting.
Naturally, if he is a fighting general, he is a third-rate skill, and as long as his brain is flexible, it is enough to capture him.
Almost instantly, the soldiers of the Iron Cavalry Battalion, who had been calm all along, were in an uproar.
Each armored iron rider has two auxiliaries, one to help put on the armor and the other to help put on the vest. Trained. Skillful in their work, they quickly completed everything, and then the two of them helped Gu Armor Iron to ride on their horses.
Wang Tiezhu, who went into battle for the first time in the real sense, was very excited in his heart, his life was given by Liang Shanbo, and the lives of his whole family were given by Liang Shanbo. For Liang Shan, for Lu Qian, he has a hundred and a thousand gratitude and loyalty.
Iron pillar, iron pillar, the name has a meaning. His father originally hoped that he could become the pillar of the family. Now he has indeed become the pillar of the family, and his military salary and military merits have lifted the entire Wang family out of poverty in the past.
Parents and siblings can eat and drink enough every day, and everyone can be fed and warm, all of which is like a dream, with a strong sense of unreality. This is the 'wish' that their family has been longing for in the past, but everyone feels unrealistic. But now it's all real. So who gave it to them? Wang Tiezhu swore that he would never forget it for the rest of his life. So when someone wants to take all this, Wang Tiezhu dares to fight with them endlessly.
The gratitude and loyalty to Lu Qian, and the determination and firmness to defend a 'happy' life, make today's Wang Tiezhu not have the anxiety and anxiety of the first war. He didn't feel nervous, he didn't feel afraid, only the blood boiling in his chest and the passion surging in his chest.
"Ahh Although the two were not tired, they didn't say a word, rose up bravely, and led the soldiers to kill. In this way, it naturally ushered in a fierce counterattack by the Western Army. Yuan Lang didn't have time to touch the blood on his face, so his arms quickly blocked his head and blocked a mace that hit him head.
"Die!" Yuan Lang, who was better in the four-arm battle, swung his mace high, and hoeed forward with his right hand, and the sharp edge had already entered his chest.
This is Laos, a bit like the pickaxe of later generations, one of the ancient scepters, the form is peculiar, although the length is different, but the handle end is a big fist, the fist holds a stroke, purely made of iron, its weight is no less than the axe.
"Come again-" Looking at the other military attache of the Western Army who was retreating timidly, Yuan Lang widened his eyes and raised his weapon to invite battle. The latter skimmed his horse and avoided the side, causing Yuan Lang to laugh.
And at this time, Liu Tang was stained with the same blood. On the heavy armor on his body, the arrows hanging on him didn't have time to take off, and he held a knife that he picked up, and fought with the Western army in front of him.
"Kill! Kill! Kill—"
The red-haired ghost martial arts have long been ranked in Liangshanbo, but his loyalty to Lu Qian is no longer questioned.
Whenever he appeared, the earth-shattering shouts of killing immediately sounded from the battle array.
This is the collision of two streams of iron, one large and one small. If you look higher, you can see that the number of Liangshan Bobu armor is much less than that of the Western Army.
"Looking for death—"
Looking at a junior colonel of the Western Army who greeted him in person, Liu Tang shouted loudly, and struck out violently. Like a wild dragon falling straight down from the nine heavens, it violently poked out its sharp claws.
The sharp blade pierced through the air and let out a piercing scream, and the white blade turned into a long rainbow and slashed straight at the top door of the Western Army officer.
"Drink—"
And the Western Army has its own pride, this military attache is obviously unwilling to flee, at least not to flee without a fight, and raises the spear in his hand to fight this fierce knife.
This is the innate sense of contempt and contempt for the weak in the soul of the strong. The Western Army is the most capable soldiers and horses of the Zhao and Song Dynasty, they are the strong soldiers who can fight the Western Xia barbarians who are defeated and retreated, and it is inevitable that the Western Army under the domination of this emotion looks down on Liangshanbo, a wave of mountain bandits. Those who have self-esteem and self-confidence naturally do not allow themselves to show cowardice and retreat in front of those they look down on.
Bravely rushed forward, it was they who firmly chose.
"When—"
After a clear sound, the spear in the hand of the officer of the Western Army was cut off from it. Liu Tang's knife was not hindered in the slightest, and continued to slash downward, and in a flash of cold light, the Western Army officer was cut from the top of his head to his crotch, almost cutting his entire body into two pieces!
"Kill, kill, kill—"
Liu Tang and Yuan Lang all shouted loudly, screaming heartbreakingly, and fighting hysterically.
And that's when it is.
The horn of "Woo woo, woo woo woo ......" suddenly sounded in the array. Yuan Lang, who wiped his face with the back of his hand, made a pause, and Lu Qian's instructions before the battle came to his heart.
"Da Da Da, Da, Da ......"
The horse's hooves trampled the earth heavily, and as the horse's speed increased began to make a deafening sound, knocking on the earth one after another.
The horse's hooves kicked up a cloud of dust.
At this time, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded in the Liangshan army in front. But this is not sharp from beginning to end, but different lengths, alternating and changing, obviously meaning something.
Sure enough, the Western Army saw that the pursuit of the Liangshan Army had stopped, and more importantly, the Liangshan bandits, who had been fighting all the time from beginning to end, were now violently disconnected.
Of course, the Western Army heard the movement behind the Liangshan Army. Cavalry!
A flash of cyan flashed on Wang Yuan's face.
Does this damn thief chief still have a cavalry in his hands? You must know that the cavalry of the Song army was exhausted in the previous cavalry battle.
Lu Qian first knocked out the spirit of the cavalry of the Western Army, and then used Lin Chong's department to consume the spirit of the entire cavalry of the Western Army, including those held in Tong Guan's hands, and finally used a cavalry battalion to help Lin Chong win the cavalry battle. And this victory is also a turning point in today's battle. These were all seen by Wang Yuan, who would have thought that he still had a cavalry in his hands? And there are a lot of people who hear the sound.
Especially when Lu Qian's own banner suddenly moved, Wang Yuan 'groaned' in his heart, and the thief chief personally led the troops to attack?
So, when Lu Qian led the armored iron cavalry out of the passage where the front-line troops were scattered, Wang Yuan's eyes were about to erupt with fire.
Heavy cavalry!
A heavy cavalry that surpassed the Iron Harriers of Western Xia. And the light horses with their own brigades of light horses one step behind on the left and right, is this Lu Qian an immortal? This kind of means can not be endured, he is so sure that his central front will not be broken?
When Lu Qian led the Iron Cavalry Battalion into the Western Army Array, the anger in Wang Yuan's eyes turned into pain. It's been a year or two since the fight with the Western Xia army, how can you not know how great the lethality of these hoplites to the infantry after breaking into the array?
Bows, crossbows and arrows could hardly hurt them, and the only things that could stop them were heavy axes and thick shields and spears. Fight their speed with human lives and neat arrays, and then completely overwhelm them.
But now? Chang Jiejun and Qin Fengjun have long been missing because of their previous attacks, and the army is retreating, which is a big flaw.
"Stop, stop, the whole army stops. Array, array. Wang Yuan and the Yang brothers shouted frantically.
At this time, Lu Qian personally went into battle, and a fierce wind was already blowing in his face.
The 500 mounted iron horses are arrayed in a 50*10 array, with a distance of three zhang between the front and back, but the distance between the left and right is less than half a zhang. The heavy cavalry under Lu Qian does not need to be connected by iron rings, but "advancing like a wall" is undoubtedly a trick that can maximize the combat power of the iron cavalry.
That's what Lu Qian asked them to do.
Ten columns of heavy cavalry rushed to this point, and they could still maintain a plane, that is, the distance between the soldiers in the same row had widened a little. From less than two feet at the beginning, it has grown to four or five feet now. But the array did not cause a big disturbance because of the acceleration of the war horse, and such a long time of training still had certain results.
The dense sound of hooves slowly converged into a rumbling sound, which was like fairy music in the ears of Lu Qian and the others. This Iron Rider itself has a super powerful impact, and it is lined up against the wall, which is equivalent to inflicting a top-level buff on them. The positive impact is undeniable.
Qin Fengjun's soldiers did not escape, even if they saw batches of iron horses and iron armor coming, they even knew their fate, but under the military order, these soldiers who had been trained in the northwest battlefield still stood firmly on the ground. At the same time that the iron horsemen were clinging to their weapons and slaughtered with overwhelming force, they also struggled to swing the final blow of their lives.
Blood splattered, screaming and screaming!
The iron stream hits, and the blockers are invincible.
Although the soldiers of the Iron Cavalry Battalion were also pulled off their horses by the near-death blow of the Western soldiers.
Countless broken gun barrels, accompanied by the continuous screams of people and horses, resounded in people's ears.
The sound of the blades of the spear clashing and rubbing against the armor and iron made the roots of the teeth ache, and the bones of the horses that could not avoid it collided with each other shattered, and they fell to the ground and wailed. And the wails of our soldiers.
Lu Qian brandished a wind-pouring broadsword weighing more than forty catties, completely turning into a ball of white light, and no one knew how many lives were involved in the wind-like sword light.
The rolling armored iron rider was like a flesh roller, rolling and rolling, grinding all the horses in front of him into a piece of bright red tissue paper. The front and back are separated by three zhang, and the left and right are separated by half a zhang, which is a steel brush, which is vigorously brushed on the flesh and blood of the Western Army. And Lu Qian's group of people is the hardest and sharpest needle on the steel brush.
They didn't have to think about the enemy's blades, they just needed to stab everything in front of them with their spears, smash and smash everything in front of them with broadswords and maces, and one by one the corpses fell to the ground, and they were immediately trampled into flesh by the heavy horses' hooves.
In the face of all this, some people are timid, while others are crazy.
A Song Army officer let out a strange scream that was extremely high. He also knew that he was not an opponent, but at the moment of life and death, he chose to meet him with a knife, and he couldn't stop screaming and screaming to cheer himself up! But before he could crash into the tumbling and dancing white rainbow, he was cut off by Hu Sanniang's head, but then Hu Sanniang also flew out with the whole man and horse.
Although the officer was on a death charge, he was still followed by him, not alone, and he was followed by seven or eight heavily armored Western soldiers. Hu Sanniang only cared about killing the officer, but forgot to go in other directions, and was swept on the horse's hooves by a Western saber player.
The horse's legs immediately flew up, and the people also flew up, and before their bodies landed, they were still rolling in the air, and Lu Qian had already rushed into them. This is the woman he has set.
When Hu Sanniang, who was a little dizzy, was pulled up and rode on an empty horse, the last heavy axe soldier was just caught up by Lu Qian, and he was cut into two pieces with one sword, and the two corpses fell to the ground with blood mist in the sky.
A layer of sweat appeared on Lu Qian's forehead. It's really not fun to save the beauty of this hero. Fortunately, this time he was close, if he came farther away, this battle might have damaged the two leaders Deng Fei and Hu Sanniang. So much so that he gave Xiao Wenhou a look and asked him to focus on taking care of the three children.
If Yue Fei died, he would lose even more.
He originally thought that he would be able to kill the Western Army by surprise when he dispatched the Iron Cavalry Battalion at this time. Thinking of such a time, the Western Army can still maintain a good counterattack force.
Is there any difference between the Western Army in 1116 and the Western Army in 1126?
Yang Kesheng personally led three thousand heavy armor, each armed with spears and knives, spears and heavy axes, forming ten dense arrays, and strode towards the iron cavalry camp. "Brother Zhengchen, and tell his soldiers to retreat, and wait for me to destroy this gang of robbers." Yang Keshi's eyes were staring at the big banner with the word 'Lu', it was really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it. Lu Qian's thief actually rushed into battle in person, then he should be killed.
But Wang Yuan turned a deaf ear, stepped on the stirrup and straightened up, looking back! The whole person's face was full of astonishment!
Yang Keshi reflexively made the same move as Wang Yuan, stretched his neck and looked back, the banner of the word "Liu" was still standing firmly in place, but ......
"Where is the commander's banner?"
