Chapter 191: Dogfight (1)

"Your banner is very chic!"

Li Gengyun smiled and took the golden order flag from Ding Yao's hand, and the order flag was engraved with a white lotus flower, which represented that the White Lotus Sect troops could be mobilized. There are three such banners in the White Lotus Sect, all of which are personally controlled by Bai Chongyang. Holding the Order Banner can mobilize the White Lotus Sect's troops within 30,000 people, and although the troops brought by Ding Yao this time are only 10,000, they are all the elite troops of the White Lotus Sect, so their combat effectiveness is not bad. Although it is not as good as the soldiers of the Northern Yuan, it should be no problem to fight one for two!

"It's better to be respectful than to obey!"

Li Gengyun didn't refuse, and Ding Yao didn't seem to care that Li Gengyun was in control of Lingqi, and they also wanted to know how capable Mr. Li, who was very rumored, about marching and arranging. The three of them plus Bai Baobao are enough to escape safely, even if Li Gengyun is a waste, it doesn't matter, the power of the White Lotus Sect is weakened, and they Huaishui Sanding has other places to go, Nanzhou is a good choice.

Li Gengyun's performance of Ding Yao also understood what the other party was thinking, and he handed over the military power to himself so easily, which shows that the three of them are not very loyal to the White Lotus Sect, and as early as when they were in Lizhou, they did not see them leave the White Lotus Sect and did not take refuge in Xiangzhou, which has the queen, which shows that they have been disappointed in the Great Song Dynasty.

In this way, Huaishui Sanding has left a way back for themselves, either to take refuge in the Northern Yuan, or to the Southern Chu, and the other is to take refuge in Nanzhou Huateng. However, these are all things in the future, although the White Lotus Sect is a cult, but its power and prestige in Jiangzhou are indeed not low, it can be said that the real controller of Jiangzhou is Bai Chongyang, who can run the White Lotus Sect to the point where he can occupy a state in just ten years, and he is not an ordinary person.

After receiving the order flag, Li Gengyun stretched out his hand out of the window, and then shook it vigorously, and it didn't take long for a slogan to suddenly sound in Linkou City: "The Holy Maiden is coming, and the white lotus is reborn!" The red sun is gone, and the white sun is in full swing! ”

Where Li Gengyun looked, he was hiding in all kinds of houses, and suddenly countless White Lotus Sect members rushed out, and they protected the entire Linkou Inn in the center and waited for him.

At the same time, Duguke's 5,000-strong army marched out from the houses on the north side of the Linkou Inn, facing the 10,000 elites of the White Lotus Sect and shouting: "Long live Dayuan!" Long live Dayuan! ”

A bearded young man in the Northern Yuan army walked out, he was wearing a military uniform, his sword was pinned to his waist, he was dressed as a general, he frowned and looked at the shaking order flag at the window of the Linkou Inn, and shouted loudly: "Array!" ”

"Drink!"

After hearing his order, the Northern Yuan soldiers immediately set up a formation, with shield soldiers in the front army, heavy armor soldiers in the middle army, archers in the rear, and he himself was protected by heavy armor soldiers in the center. This is his Dugu Ke's preferred offensive phalanx, the range of the Northern Yuan archers is larger than that of the Great Song soldiers, they can basically shoot to two hundred paces, while the archers of the Great Song Dynasty are only one hundred and fifty steps. Therefore, the Northern Yuan archers could advance under the escort of shield soldiers and heavy armor soldiers, and shoot while advancing, thus greatly enhancing the effect of the attack.

On Duguke's side, the three arms are used together, while on Li Gengyun's side, the elite troops of the White Lotus Sect turned out to be unified infantry. It is said that they are elite because these people are all young and middle-aged, and at the same time, the weapons in their hands are stronger than ordinary people, but they are a big disadvantage in terms of the arrangement of troops. In other words, Li Gengyun only has 10,000 infantry in his hands, and he has to deal with the three arms of the Northern Yuan with 5,000.

"Duguke is very smart, he puts himself in the Chinese army, and the Chinese army is guarded by heavy armor soldiers, although the mobility is poor, but the attack and defense are very strong, it is even more difficult to take off his head!" Li Gengyun saw the location of Duguke, it was obvious that Duguke would not place himself in the dangerous front army, nor would he place himself in the rear army that was easy to be sneak attacked, he placed himself in the middle army, the purpose was to prevent the thief from capturing the king first.

"Mr. Li, what should I do? There are archers on the other side, and if we fight for a while, will our losses be very large?! ”

"The archer's target is us, and he uses it against others mainly by these shieldmen and heavy armor." Li Gengyun shook his head and said, "Linkou City is not big in the first place, and the distance between them and us is very close, at most three hundred steps. So, this time we're going to have street battles, not siege battles. He has archers who can only have a point advantage in one or two rounds, and once our troops fight with their troops, then the archers will inevitably become ordinary infantry and enter the battle. So our losses won't be huge! ”

"Good! I'll ask Mr. Li to give the order and launch an attack! ”

"Kill!"

Li Gengyun's command flag pointed in the direction of Duguke, and at the same time shouted loudly to kill.

When the White Lotus Sect troops received the military order, they also shouted loudly to kill, and rushed directly towards Duguke's military formation.

"Kill!"

When Dugu Ke saw that the White Lotus Sect's army moved, he raised one hand high, his eyes were cold, his teeth were clenched, and he roared angrily in his mouth: "Kill them all!" ”

"Woohoo!"

Duguke's voice fell, and the archers behind him opened their bows and shot, and the archer army composed of nearly a thousand people, after a round of sharp arrows was shot, a large number of the charging White Lotus Sect fell instantly, and at least two or three hundred people were put down by the Northern Yuan archers in this round of attacks.

However, the White Lotus Sect had a large number of people, and after this round of bow and arrow attacks, the distance between those who had not fallen and Duguke's troops had shrunk to only two hundred and fifty paces.

"Shoot!"

The Northern Yuan archers launched a second round of arrow rain attacks, and nearly a thousand sharp arrows under black pressure fell in the air, but this time there were many fewer White Lotus Sect disciples who fell in a pool of blood than before, and the three or four of them jointly picked up the corpses that had fallen to the ground before, held them high above their heads, and used them as shields. However, the archers' targets were not concentrated shooters, and for the cultists who could not obtain protection in time, they were not so lucky, and there were nearly seventy or eighty people who fell.

Although the use of corpses as shields was a good note, this also caused the speed of the White Lotus Sect's charge to weaken. Just as he was approaching the appearance that there were still about two hundred and thirty troops left in the Northern Yuan army, Li Gengyun's military flag shook from side to side, and he shouted in his mouth with the unique mobilization slogan of the White Lotus Sect: "Red and white!" ”

After receiving the military order, the troops of the White Lotus Sect were instantly divided into two before the Northern Yuan archers launched the third round of arrow rain attacks, and the left and right sides were separated, and the people were actually tightly used together and in two rows.

"This!"
