Yuan Tao's face was pale, and the cavalry of the official army appeared on the ground, so the main force of the official army was close to the left, and if he did not deal with it properly, he might repeat the overthrow of Yao Tiandong that day.

Faced with such a predicament, Yuan Tao had only two options, either to lead his troops to flee, or to lead his troops to live in danger and wait for help.

Different from other Yao Huang masters, Yuan Tao's family slave was born, and he used to be with his master mother**, he was quite treacherous, and it was impossible to resist desperately like Yao Tiandong, and now he wanted to retreat when he saw that the situation was wrong.

The local tyrant panicked, many people fled in all directions, Huang Harrier Jing Keqin was shocked when he saw this, and grabbed Yuan Tao's horse reins tightly with both hands and persuaded bitterly: "Heavenly King, the official army is only more than 100 horsemen, not to mention that compared with the main force such as us, it is not superior compared with the cavalry that travels thousands of miles."

The incident happened suddenly, and we were completely defenseless, so we were defeated by the opponent's cavalry.

But if we stabilize the situation, we will definitely be able to turn the tide when the time comes. ”

Yuan Tao was quite annoyed, raised his whip and pointed into the distance and said: "Don't be reluctant to lose the watermelon with sesame seeds, now that the official cavalry has appeared, the main force of the official army is set on the left and right." ”

Huang Harrier shook his head again and again: "This is more than three hundred and fifty miles like the county seat, even if it is forced to march, it will take seven days, plus the time on the road, our army will not go south for more than five days, is it possible for the divine soldiers to help, otherwise how can Yang Lin lead the main force to help?"

If I didn't guess wrong, Yang Lin just sent cavalry to help, and the sudden attack on the battlefield made me tired of coping, so that I could reach the mother who retreated without a fight. ”

After thinking about it, it made sense, Yuan Tao didn't run away anymore, and since this yellow harrier Jing Keqin wanted to fight, why didn't he lead everyone to let him fight?

Yuan Tao stabilized his position, Jing Keqin gathered more than 100 pro-soldiers, and regathered hundreds of homeless people in the back.

Seeing that the opposing infantry was not only not chaotic, but a member of the army actually gathered hundreds of people to gather and force over, which was really unexpected by everyone.

Most of the cavalry in the department are light cavalry, unlike heavy cavalry, which can easily break through the opponent's formation, and the biggest advantage of light cavalry is rapid mobility, that is, to crush the opponent with close-range shooting.

Bu Ning did not entangle with the other party, and led his troops to gallop back and forth, shooting arrows and guns from a distance, although there were many casualties, it was difficult to change the situation on the battlefield at all.

Just as the local tyrants were slowly regaining the initiative, Long Zhijiao led the 3rd Battalion to arrive, and everyone fired crossbows from a distance, shooting at each other first, and then rushing over.

In the era of cold weapons, generals can enter and exit seven times on the battlefield, mainly relying on the armor on the body, the volunteer army is a kind of hot and cold weapons cross the troops, many soldiers wear simple armor, although there is no heavy armor (or full body draped), but greatly improve the mobility of the troops.

The soldiers of the Volunteer Army wore cotton armor and iron armor to protect the main parts (simple cotton armor mainly protects the head and chest and other important organs), and they were not afraid of ordinary swords and guns, and galloped fearlessly before going back and forth.

The local tyrants are different, except for the elite soldiers in charge who are better equipped, the others are ordinary homeless people who have no defenses at all, holding shovels and hoes to participate in the battle, and they dare not fight head-on at all.

However, there was a huge disparity in the number of the two sides, although the soldiers of the volunteers were well-equipped and their morale was high, and they often killed each other so that they did not dare to fight, but the local tyrants were outnumbered, and they were often entangled by homeless people several times their size.

Often one person carries the flag in front of the command, and the one behind runs back and forth with the flag, just blocking the other party, not fighting the other side.

While the homeless people were entangled with each other, various big and small leaders with a few elites ambushed them, and when they found that the other party was alone, they immediately rushed over to fight.

Seeing the colorful flags fluttering in front of him, the swords were like a forest, and the fierce battle was not resolved for a long time, the 3rd battalion was quite annoyed and was about to lead the soldiers and horses to rush out, and suddenly saw Chen Huaixi, who joined the army, quickly whipped his horse, Fang tightened the reins of the horse and asked: "Join the army, there are many people in the local tyrants, and it is really too difficult." ”

Chen Huaixi arched his hand and said: "Mr. Long, my lord is afraid that you will be reckless and send me to help, you see, although there are flags everywhere on the opposite side, there are mostly exhausted homeless people under the banners."

The local tyrants are quite cunning, let these homeless people be cannon fodder first, and ambush a few elites among them, so I can't wait too much.

There is an old saying that shoots a man first and captures a thief before he captures the king, and we can concentrate our efforts on killing those who carry the flag, lose the flag, and those homeless people below lose their command, so they will definitely disperse in a hurry. ”

Ryunoki was overjoyed, immediately drew his sword, and ordered to kill the opponent's rider with all his might.

In this way, the situation on the battlefield slowly reversed, and everyone discovered the mystery.

The local rioters in front were crowded, everyone carried the flag back and forth to kill, the momentum was very small, and when they saw that the other side was overwhelming, the soldiers who rushed in front were afraid and stopped.

Relying on the large number of people, under the leadership of the banner, hundreds of local thugs rushed over, and seeing that the two sides would want to pick up again, they saw more than a dozen bird-gunners flash out of the rear formation, shooting at the riders fifty paces away.

Thick smoke billowed and after the gunshots rang out, the rider who was still full of anger just now slowly fell, and the local thug behind lost his command Zhang Huang was at a loss and didn't know what to do?

A small leader beside him felt embarrassed, rushed out in the formation and raised the flag, but before he could re-erect it, more than ten people rushed out of the volunteer army and rushed over.

The little leader panicked and hurriedly ran around with the flagpole, but the flagpole was too heavy to move, and although it was difficult to move with someone to protect him, he was shot by the bird again before he could take two or three steps.

The Volunteers stormed the opposing standard-bearers, some of them were killed, the whole team lost command, and the rest scattered in fear of being wounded.

Although some of the standard-bearers are desperately covering up, under the key attack, it is difficult for everyone to move as freely as they did at the beginning.

In this way, the battlefield situation was reversed again, and after changing tactics, Dragon Frame actually reversed the battlefield situation in one fell swoop.

Although they continued to increase their troops in the front, the volunteers became more and more courageous, and the morale of the rogues was extremely low.

By the time the sun was setting, the situation on the battlefield was reversed again, and Yang Lin led the escort battalion to kill.

The arrival of the escort battalion was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and it severely damaged the morale of the local rioters.

In the past, everyone could still hold on, but they thought that the main force of the Volunteers was in Xiangru County, and everyone was only facing the Volunteers cavalry and Yang Wei's 2nd Battalion.

Yang Bingyi and Liu Jinfu used to be in charge of Yao Huang in the past, and they had just surrendered two months, but now they are on the battlefield for the first time, like two wild wolves, one left and one right, like entering a no-man's land.

And the two brigades of the escort battalion led by Yang Lin are much inferior, these are two musket brigades, and the soldiers are each armed with a bird's gun.

In the face of the panicked local thugs, under the leadership of the captain Wang Gao and others, they lined up in five rows and stepped to kill them, and stopped at a distance of 80 steps between the two sides to shoot in turn.

Smoke billowed and gunshots rang out, and if some of the thugs had been lucky at first, they didn't have any idea now.

At first, three or five brave people did not believe in evil and wanted to rush over, but before they could rush out a few steps, they were beaten into a honeycomb and the whole person fell in a pool of blood.

Behind them were just hungry people who robbed grain for the winter, and now seeing that the officials and troops were so strong, they didn't dare to come forward to fight, and everyone retreated.

The sound of horses' hooves shook people's hearts.

Although there were many muskets in the loyal army, the bird guns were fired very slowly, and the cavalry behind them rushed one after another, after shooting more than ten horsemen, everyone felt physically and mentally broken, and saw that the cavalry was about to rush to the front.

When the two sides were about thirty or forty paces away, the formation of the loyal and righteous army changed slightly, and the ranks of the killers rushed to the front, the rattan player raised a half-human high rattan card to block the way, and the wolf player raised a wolf whisk about two feet long, and stabbed at the cavalry who rushed over.

In addition, some of the squad leaders, captains, spearmen, and palladium boring men of the killer squad fired arrows at the rushing cavalry, while others constantly stepped on the crossbows, loaded the arrows, and aimed at the rushing cavalry.

From ancient times to the present, the bow and crossbow is a sharp weapon for the infantry of the Central Plains to deal with the northern nomads, although the bow and crossbow are physically exhausted, although the accuracy is not high, and the shooting distance is limited, but the shooting speed is several times that of the bird.

Now facing the Tyrant cavalry who was twenty or thirty paces away and did not have much armor on their bodies, they shot arrows and crossbows at close range, and for a while, the arrows rained down, and the Tyrant cavalry who rushed to the front fell a large piece.

In the face of the dense rain of arrows, some riders in the back tightened the reins of their horses, everyone just wanted to eat, why did everyone have any deep hatred and hatred to fight hard?

Some riders who did not know the height of the sky and the height of the earth let the inertia of the war horses rush forward, and at this time, the ranks of the loyal and righteous army killers were already waiting solemnly, and they saw from a distance that the wolf stalks about two feet long were raised in front of the opponent's formation.

The wolf leaned forward, put the wolf on the ground, and faced the rushing war horse, the wolf was surrounded by sharp iron thorns, and after being hung up, it would inevitably open the intestines.

Several unlucky horses were knocked into the wolf's sheath, and there were bursts of wailing sounds, and the startled riders tightened their horses' reins, and the frightened horses neighed.

The wolf slugger slightly blocked the dash of most of the horses, and the few that survived sprinted frantically inside, but in the face of a denser spear, boring palladium.

Seeing the war horse rushing over, the boring palladium hand threw away the bow and crossbow, and brandished the boring palladium to hit the horse's neck, the war horse neighed, and the war horse quickly swung its neck to avoid the blow.

A few of the horses that were hit seemed to be castrated, making a long wailing sound, and some were even beaten to the point that the whole horse fell to the battlefield.

The war horse and the rider on horseback are desperately rushing forward, Yao Huang's rider is not like the elite cavalry, he can ride and shoot on horseback to his heart's content, and his riding skills are good, and he can fight freely on horseback and forth is already good.

Wu Chang, rattan players have rushed up, with a big knife, with a shield to block the momentum of the horse, the experience of the infantry confrontation tells everyone that in the face of the sprinting war horse, any single fight is futile, a combat group is a community of destiny, everyone can only cover each other, in order to ensure each other's safety.

Of course, there are also those who are frightened by the sprint of the war horse and involuntarily retreat, but at this time, the squad leader, the captain's shouts shocked everyone, and the squadron leader waved a bright steel knife to make everyone feel cold.
