Chapter 1204: The Last Days of the Great Marshal (Secondary 2)

The sun hanging high in the sky seems to have no temperature, but the snow covering the earth has begun to melt on a large scale, the wind is still blowing, but there is no biting chill, but it makes people feel a warm meaning, under the mountainside, the greenery is restored, only the top of the majestic mountain is left, and a ridiculous white hat is still worn.

The murmuring water came from the plains, from the mountains, and slowly merged into a torrent of strands, pouring into the big river below the mountain, and the river rose a lot.

There is ice floe in the river, you push me, I squeeze you, and I am going down the river, and some small ice cubes are floating and drifting, and they disappear into the river without a sound.

The river should be white with ice floes, the ice is snowy, but now the river is red.

Once the harsh winter is gone, spring will naturally come, and the spring breeze should have brought vitality, but here, there is a smell of blood floating in the wind, a very strong smell of blood.

This is now a battlefield, the last troops of the Qi army surrounded in the area of Jinghu Lake, after escaping here, finally exhausted, behind the river is surging because of the melting ice and snow, and in front of it are countless Chu troops are swarming.

There is no way forward, there are pursuers behind, and in this Jedi, the Qi army launched a desperate counterattack.

On the top of the mountain on the other side of the river, a spotted tiger lazily walked out of the forest, standing on the top of the mountain top of the boulder where the snow has not melted, raised its head high, and let out a long roar of joy at the sun in the sky.

After the tiger howled, its sensitive nose smelled the strong smell of blood in the air, which made him even more delighted, and it looked to the other side in the direction from which the smell of blood had come from.

The earth-shattering cry immediately reached its ears, and countless swords and spears shining in the sunlight were waving, and a puff of blood burst out, and under the illumination of the sun, it looked even more bright red.

The roar of the king of the mountain grew louder and louder, and it watched with some horror as the desperate fight on the other side grew.

Finally, it closed its mouth tightly, its slender body trembled slightly, its tail that was swinging comfortably in the spring breeze caught two strands, it lowered its head in horror, turned around, and ran towards the forest behind it, leaping forward, and when it fell to the ground, its legs were a little weak, and one stumbled, almost lying in the snow.

With a few low whimperes, it got back to its feet and fled back into the forest as fast as it could.

On the other side of the river, the two armies that were fighting fiercely, no one knew that their outburst of murderous aura and Shura's hellish fighting made a king of beasts in the roaring mountains and forests flee into the mountains again with his tail between his legs, and now they only have two thoughts in their minds, either kill or be killed.

Tens of thousands of troops are fighting their final battle on the battlefield within a radius of several miles.

Wanzhou City was attacked by surprise, Zhou Jiyun, the general of Qi State, fled in embarrassment, and tens of thousands of Chu troops in Jinghu County were cut off from the back road, and were attacked by the Chu army under the command of Bian Wushuang and Cheng Wuben.

The Chu army in Jinghu County basically had the sharp weapons purchased from the Ming Kingdom, and under the blows of crossbow machines, rushing vehicles, thunderbolts, and heavy crossbows, the Qi army was compressed a little bit to survive the empty plane.

Their sailors had been annihilated before, and the Chu army, which had mastered the advantage of the waterway, recklessly rode boats and boats, divided, and annihilated the tens of thousands of Qi troops one by one after cutting them into pieces of disconnected individuals.

Qi Jun struggled for almost a month. But they didn't wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and after the last grain was gone, the remnants of the Qi army finally had to launch a final battle to the death, wanting to break out.

Their efforts were useless under the combined efforts of Bian Wushuang and Cheng Wuben, and the encirclement narrowed little by little, and finally the last remaining 10,000 people came to the end of their fate.

The snow on the ground has long since disappeared, mud, blood, and severed arms and stumps are the protagonists of this land, and they can hardly see their original color, a pair of big feet stepped on it, and even the muddy water splashed was red.

Before he could take a look at the colorful world, a huge horse's hoof snapped down, trampling the snow and the budding grass back into the mud.

On top of the war horse, a burly knight in full armor held two swords in his hand, and the eyes in the armor were indifferently watching the fierce battle in front of him. Behind him, a group of horses gathered and formed a triangular pyramid formation with this knight as the cone behind him.

Ahead, attacking the Qi army was the 20,000 Chu army led by Luo Hu and Luo Bao. The Qi army, which was on the verge of despair, broke out with amazing combat effectiveness, although the number was only half of the Chu army, but at this moment, it was inseparable from the Chu army. Although the Chu army had the upper hand, for a while, it was unable to achieve the final victory.

"What a piece of rubbish!" Beneath the armor, the knight gritted his teeth.

"General Jiang, why haven't Bian Wushuang and Suqian's troops arrived yet? Did we get there first?" Another ironclad horseman rode up to the burly knight's side, lifted his visor, and looked ahead with some strange eyes.

Although Bian Wushuang and Suqian went to Wanzhou City in person, they still left 10,000 soldiers and horses on the Jinghu front, and 20,000 people were much stronger than the army led by Luo Hu and Luo Bao. And although they are cavalry, they were originally stationed outside Jinghu County, as the most powerful army in Jinghu County's defense line, they have always been the trump card in Cheng Wuben's hands.

"If those two armies had come, this Qi army would have been annihilated long ago. General Jiang, I really don't understand why Cheng Shuai must let us rush here!" The generals were a little confused. They had just wiped out a Qi army not far from Jinghu County, and then they received a military order from Cheng Wuben, and 10,000 cavalry rushed here without stopping.

The leader of this cavalry is called Jiang Shangyan.

Listening to the words of the generals around him, Jiang Shangyan's heart was unspeakably bitter. The reason why Cheng Shuai strictly ordered him to lead his army to come here and participate in this war that did not require him was naturally because Cheng Shuai wanted to keep him away from Jinghu County.

Because Cheng Shuai has already decided to go. He was afraid that he would be impulsive to stop his decision to return to Shangjing. This cavalry was formed by Jiang Shangyan, and the generals in the army were all brought back from the Ming Kingdom. This army is completely in the hands of Jiang Shangyan alone. If he wants to do something, in Jinghu City, no one really can stop him.

"The duty of a soldier is obedience!" Thinking of the additional sentence that Cheng Shuai's personal soldiers had added in addition to the military order they brought him, Jiang Shangyan lowered his head. Cheng Shuai is really worried about his disobedience!

"Why didn't you come? Of course, each has its own mind!" Jiang Shangyan sneered: "Luo Hu and Luo Bao are Luo Liang's henchmen, the more his people die, no matter how good Bian Wushuang is to firmly control them in his hands!" Suqian, naturally, he didn't want his subordinates to lose too much and let Bian Wushuang hold him, hehe, Luo Hu and Luo Leopard, of course, they also understood what these two people meant, but they had to come, because Luo Liang lost power, they not only had to fight for a future for themselves, but also to save a little bit of sainthood for Luo Liang in front of His Majesty the Emperor."

"The six eastern counties have not yet been recovered, the Qi State is still eyeing each other, and the Ming State is also ill-intentioned on one side, but we are still so intrigued within ourselves." The generals around him hung their heads a little sadly.

Jiang Shangyan turned his head to look at the generals beside him, and said word by word: "The duty of a soldier is to obey. Cheng Shuai said that soldiers should not have their own thoughts, and soldiers should have their own ideas, which is not the blessing of the country. So, let's obey!"

He raised his twin swords high and shouted: "The whole army, assault, all annihilation of the Qi army!" Kill!"

The spur snorted the horse, and the horse neighed, and its four hooves exerted force, and rushed forward like lightning.

"Kill!" Countless cavalrymen held their swords high, followed their main generals, and slaughtered towards the battlefield at a gallop.

In the middle of the battlefield, Luo Hu and Luo Leopard heard the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, the two looked back and looked at the rear, the high Chu Army Fire Phoenix Flag flew in the wind, and on the side of the Fire Phoenix Flag, the Jiangzi flag was also hunting in the wind.

"It's Egami Yan!" The two looked at each other, and both showed expressions of relief. As Jiang Shangyan said, although the two of them knew that Bian Wushuang Suqian was deliberately weakening their power, they had to come, and they couldn't help but come.

"This person deserves a friend!" Luo Baodao.

"It's Cheng Wuben!" Luo Hu lowered his head slightly, "Jiang Shangyan himself, I'm just afraid that we will die earlier."

Luo Bao was stunned, but in an instant, he understood what the tiger meant.

"Kill the enemy! Now that Jiang Shangyan is here, we can at least keep most of our subordinates." Luo Hu lifted the broadsword that had been missing, and roared and rushed towards the Qi army in front again.

When the sun was setting in the west, the decisive battle by the river finally came to an end, and with a snap, the horse's hooves stepped heavily on the head of a Qi general who was still struggling on the ground, and immediately trampled his head to the ground. Jiang Shangyan put his two knives together in one hand, lifted the mask armor that was also stained with blood with a bang, and turned his head to look in the direction of Jinghu County.

"Xu Bin!"

A cavalry general rode his horse and rushed to Jiang Shangyan." What does the general command?"

"The cavalry is under your command for the time being." Jiang Shangyan said sharply.

Xu Bin was stunned, "General, where are you going?"

"Back to Jinghu County!" Jiang Shangyan exhaled a breath of turbidity, clamped his legs, and the war horse rushed forward, but he rode alone, rushing to the direction of Jinghu County.
