Chapter 3 Tiger Ben's Bloody War Quells Rebellion

Section 10 The Battle of the Five Armies (5)

The frontal battlefield of the Hanwei army's large array.

Wang Zhi led his fifty soldiers to rush into the nearly 10,000 rebel formations, these dozens of soldiers each formed five small formations, constantly fighting bravely to kill the enemy and advancing forward, hundreds of rebels around not only could not stop, but were killed and wounded by Wang Zhi's troops.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Tiger Battalion, who were fighting fiercely with the rebel brigade, suddenly boosted their morale and launched a counterattack with a roar. Under the command of the hundred generals and banner commanders of the various departments, the soldiers of the tiger battalion have attacked the rebel formation with a team of more than a dozen people, and these soldiers are all extremely brave people, and they are all bravely moving forward under the encouragement of Wang Zhi and other soldiers in the front.

All of a sudden, the thousands of rebels on the frontal battlefield were greatly reduced, and no matter how violent Xuan Chongming was, he could not advance half a step further.

Zhao Kaishan saw Wang Zhi and other soldiers in the battle, and said to his subordinates with a laugh: "Haha, I have seen a treasure, I actually met Wang Zhi, a fierce general, and I, the commander of the first battalion, can't lag behind!" ”

After speaking, Zhao Kaishan beckoned a hundred guards around him, and rushed to the battlefield of fierce fighting with a loud roar. The one hundred and one warriors quickly crossed the battle line and plunged headlong into the ranks of thousands of rebels, and it did not take long for them to join up with Wang Zhi's headquarters.

Wang Zhi turned around and saw Zhao Kaishan, who was fighting bravely to kill the enemy, and said loudly: "General! You are the commander of the first battalion, you should sit in the rear and command, what are you doing here! ”

"Haha, happy!" After Zhao Kaishan killed two rebel soldiers, he shouted: "I have already designated the commander of Battalion A to command the battle, or charge into battle!" How can such a bloody battle be so lacking in me! ”

After speaking, Zhao Kaishan slashed to death the rebel soldiers in front of him with an axe, and then led more than a dozen personal guards behind him to rush to the front. These dozen or so people are all warriors in heavy armor and armed with sharp blades, how can the rebel soldiers who have disbanded the phalanx resist? Dozens of rebels around were killed by Zhao Kaishan and other soldiers, and they were not embarrassed. Seeing this, Wang Zhi was also full of fighting spirit, and led dozens of soldiers under his command to rush forward after him.

These more than 100 soldiers rushed to a place two hundred steps away from the Tiger Ben Battalion array, and the soldiers even touched the rebel army where Hao Chongming was located for a time, so angry that Gao Chongming almost went crazy, and mobilized hundreds of rebels to stop it and carry out a fierce attack to contain the charge of Zhao Kaishan and Wang Zhi's department.

"This Wang Zhi is simply wolf-hearted! It's in vain that I'm still so important to him! ”

Seeing Wang Zhi who was fighting bloodily from afar, he couldn't help but be so angry that he immediately mobilized twenty archers, regardless of whether he would accidentally injure his subordinates, and aimed at Wang Zhi's location is a fierce shot.

The dense arrows shot down more than a dozen soldiers of the Tiger Camp in an instant, and Wang Zhi was also hit by three arrows, but fortunately, he didn't hit any vital points. The severe pain on his body not only did not defeat Wang Zhi, but even more struck the blood in his heart. I saw Wang Zhi roar and rush towards the rebel archers not far away, and the eight soldiers of the Tiger Camp followed, and everyone picked up large and small shields or planks from the chaotic battlefield while running, and all of them protected themselves in front of them.

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”

The second wave of arrow rain came again in a blink of an eye, and the rebels near everyone fell to the ground with arrows, but only three soldiers of Wang Zhi and others were unfortunately hit by arrows and fell to the ground. At this time, everyone was less than ten paces away from the rebel archers!

"Kill!"

Wang Zhi roared, rushed forward, and immediately knocked down four rebels, and then rolled on the spot and stood up, hacking the four rebels who fell to the ground to death one by one. At this time, the five soldiers of the Tiger Ben Battalion who followed Wang Zhi also arrived in time and pounced on the surrounding rebel archers. A moment later, the twenty rebel archers that Yu Chongming had hastily assembled were reduced to corpses.

But before everyone could catch their breath, hundreds of rebel soldiers around rushed up and surrounded Wang Zhi and several people.

In the distance, Zhao Kaishan, who was leading his troops in a fierce battle, found Wang Zhi who was in crisis, and couldn't help but feel angry and anxious, and immediately commanded hundreds of personal guards around him to kill and support.

"Wang Zhi! Wang Zhi! ”

Zhao Kaishan yelled loudly while rushing and punching, wanting Wang Zhi to know that he had rushed to help. Zhao Kaishan was very anxious at this time, he had finally gained a fierce general, but he couldn't just fold here.

At the same moment, when Yu Chongming saw that he had finally surrounded the rebel general Wang Zhi, he was willing to let it go easily, and kept shouting loudly: "Rush forward!" Kill me! Kill the rebel general Wang Zhi, reward fifty taels of silver, and the official will be promoted to one level! ”

The rebels who were besieging Wang Zhi suddenly went crazy, and countless spears and short spears stabbed towards Wang Zhi, and countless war knives slashed towards Wang Zhi. At this time, Wang Zhi was exhausted, and several wounds on his body were also bloody, and every movement was extremely painful. In the face of dozens of rebels attacking at the same time, Wang Zhi knew that he had no way to hide, and he would definitely die here today!

Thinking of this, Wang Zhi threw the war knife in his hand hard, directly penetrating the chest of a rebel soldier; Then, Wang Zhi turned sideways and took the spear stabbed by a rebel soldier, roared, grabbed it, and then threw it at the position where the flag of General Yu Chongming was located in the distance.

"Medium!"

After the spear fell, the flag of the extravagant general fell. At this moment, Wang Zhi was also pierced through his body by four spears, and he was out of breath on the spot!

Zhao Kaishan, who was rushing over, almost gritted his steel teeth when he saw this scene, yelled and killed the surrounding rebel soldiers, and after a while, he led his troops to rush to Wang Zhi's corpse.

When Zhao Kaishan saw Wang Zhi, who was already exhausted, his expression was extremely sad and angry, and he walked back as soon as he picked up Wang Zhi's body, ignoring the hundreds of rebel soldiers who were surrounding him. At this time, dozens of surrounding guards rushed up one after another, surrounding Zhao Kaishan in the middle, and everyone fought all the way back to the Tiger Camp array.

The rebel soldiers along the way saw that the flag of the general of the army suddenly fell, thinking that it was their main general who was suddenly killed, and suddenly the army was in a state of confusion, and thousands of rebel soldiers rolled up and retreated, almost fleeing on the spot. Seeing this situation, the soldiers of the Huben battalion took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and pursued the troops for a distance of hundreds of paces before retreating.

"What for! Regroup for me! Lao Tzu is not dead yet! ”

Seeing that the army under his command was retreating, he roared loudly in anger, just now his own standard-bearer was killed by the spear thrown by Wang Zhi, and he was not injured at all, who knew that it caused the retreat of the army.

After a little half an hour, Yu Chongming wasted his strength to stop the retreat of the army, and began to re-form a formation one mile away from the big array of the tiger camp.

The left flank of the Hanwei army's large array.

The Iron Cavalry of the Tiger Battalion had lost the speed of their horses, and more than 10,000 rebels rushed up one after another, trying their best to compress the space for the Iron Cavalry to maneuver with them.

Seeing this, the cavalry battalion Qianzong was anxious, and after looking around, he found that the right flank of the rebels was relatively weak, so he wanted to lead his troops to rush out from the right flank of the rebels. So the cavalry battalion commander shouted: "Three-eyed gun!" Three-eyed guns ready! Rush with me! ”

"Tiger! Tiger! Tiger! ”

More than a thousand iron cavalry soldiers roared in unison, and they all took out the three-eyed guns they carried with them. All of the Hanwei Army's Iron Cavalry soldiers were equipped with well-crafted Three-Eyed Guns, and according to the military discipline of the Hanwei Army, all Iron Cavalry soldiers had to reload their Three-Eyed Guns before setting out for battle, so that they could fire and kill the enemy at any time during the charge.

At this time, more than 1,000 iron cavalry soldiers of the Tiger Battalion had already rushed towards the right flank of the rebels, and the surrounding rebel soldiers rushed up one after another to slow down the charging speed of the iron cavalry.

At this moment, the commander of the cavalry battalion shouted: "Fire!" Fire! ”

"Tom! Tong! Tong! ”

Hundreds of soldiers on the outermost side of the Iron Cavalry Formation opened fire one after another, and the roar of the low-pitched three-eyed guns came and went, and the rebel soldiers around the Iron Cavalry Formation fell to the ground like straw under the wind, and the front of the Iron Cavalry Army suddenly opened up.

"Kill it!"

The morale of more than 1,000 Iron Cavalry officers of the Tiger Battalion was greatly boosted, and they rushed out of the encirclement of more than 10,000 rebels like a dragon entering the sea.

The leader of the rebel army saw that his army of more than 10,000 could not trap more than 1,000 officers and iron cavalry, and he was so angry that he cursed, but he had no choice but to order the army to re-line and resist the onslaught of the iron cavalry soldiers of the Tiger Battalion in a dense formation.

Just when the front and left flanks of the Hanwei army's large array had taken a turnaround, on the battlefield on the right flank, which had originally reassured Liu Yunwei the most, the Longxiang Iron Cavalry soldiers were in a dilemma.

At this time, Guo Yi led 5,000 Longxiang Iron Cavalry soldiers to roam the periphery of An Bangyan's army. I saw that the 20,000 rebels led by An Bangyan had formed a formation on the spot, and the outermost part of the large array had erected eyebrows and shields, wrapping the 20,000 rebels tightly; And the pikemen among the rebels stretched out their sharp spears out of the phalanx, making the entire rebel array like a huge hedgehog, making Guo Yi feel at a loss.

Guo Yi frowned and looked at it for a while, only to see that An Bangyan's phalanx was very tightly defended, and he had no opportunity to take advantage of it at all. If you want to break it, you can only mobilize artillery and birdmen to attack. If you lead the iron cavalry soldiers to charge hard, it is estimated that these five thousand dragon and iron cavalry will be folded here.

"A living person can suffocate urine!"

Guo Yi gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Herald: All dismount and fight!" Three-eyed guns ready! ”
