Just as the rain fell, Cao Meng and Gao Chong had already arrived at the north of the battlefield with 6,000 cavalry, and they hid in a forest, waiting for the order of the main general Cao Meng to attack.

Although Cao Meng is only twenty years old, he is already an experienced veteran, and he knows his task very well, they are not strange soldiers passing by, but reinforcements ordered by the boss, which requires them to obey the commander's orders at major junctures.

Of course, attacking the enemy army is also a major node, Cao Meng did not dare to attack without authorization, but sent his own soldiers to report to the commander, and after a while, his personal soldiers rushed back and handed Cao Meng an arrow, "The commander has an order, let the general see the three rockets and then launch!" ”

"I see!"

Cao Meng took the arrow, turned back to the soldiers and shouted: "You all have a little brighter, and remind me when you see the rocket!" ”

...........

After all, the two armies of the Jiangnan Army, Hu Ben and Fei Xiong, were built by the three major relatives at great expense, well-equipped and well-trained, with 15,000 pikemen infantry, 4,000 sword and shield troops and 1,000 cavalry forming a large array of spearmen and cavalry complementing each other, under the leadership of the main general Xiang Fa and the deputy general Zheng Chen, they went to meet the elite of the 10,000 Jingzhao Army.

Heavy rain from the sky destroyed the deployment of the crossbow army of Xiang Fa, so that the 10,000 infantry of the Jingzhao Army killed without hindrance, and the 10,000 spears were like a surging wave, under the leadership of Liu Kuang, launched a stormy attack on the spearmen from all directions.

The summer of June is mostly showers, after a short period of heavy rain, the rain clears the clouds, the sun shines on the earth again, the crossbow soldiers of the Jiangnan army have changed their strings, and the crossbow army is once again powerful.

The 10,000 right-wing infantry led by Wang Gui was blocked by the 3,000 crossbow army sent by Guo Huaisu, and the Jingzhao army shouted that the killing sound shook the sky, and they bravely moved forward and swept towards the Jiangnan army, they held their shields in one hand and spears in the other, and fiercely charged the enemy position in the face of the dense rain of arrows.

When entering the hundred steps, the Jiangnan Army's Divine Arm Crossbow Army began to release arrows, and the overwhelming rain of arrows shot head-on to the soldiers of the Jingzhao Army, and the army led by Wang Gui was reorganized from the surrender army, and the equipment was slightly inferior, and the defensive power of both armor and shields was relatively weak, and it could not resist the strong crossbow and hard arrows of the Divine Arm Crossbow.

Dense and powerful crossbow arrows pierced the shield, and pieces of Jingzhao soldiers were shot over, but the rolling army was still like a black tide, surging, covering the Jiangnan army.

In a-for-tat confrontation, Li Yanqing also sent 5,000 Jingzhao crossbowmen to shoot at the enemy formation, they also used the divine arm crossbow, and the soldiers pulled the strings and arrows, and the speed was extremely fast.

A burst of crossbow arrows shot towards the enemy like locusts, a large number of Jiangnan Army soldiers were also shot over, and they were effectively covered, Wang Gui's army finally rushed to the front of the Jiangnan Army formation, the Jiangnan Army crossbowmen put down their bows and arrows one after another, and ran back, Li Mo led 10,000 troops to meet the battle.

'Boom! There was a loud bang on the ground, and the two armies collided like two mighty waves, and in an instant the murderous spirit confused people's eyes, the soldiers struck each other, the armor collided, and there was a sonorous sound, and the two armies fought fiercely together, shouting and screaming, and the heads fell to the ground, and the blood flowed like rivers, and the war was so cruel that the lives of the soldiers were as humble as grass at this moment.

A Jingzhao soldier screamed, his head was split in half by an axe, blood and brains splashed everywhere, two burly soldiers met each other and fell to the ground together, Jingzhao soldiers held each other down, pulled out a dagger from his leather boots, and stabbed it at the other party's forehead and eyes, and the other party choked and died on the ground.

Li Yanqing also sent another 5,000 men to support Liu Kuang, and only 3,000 cavalry were left in his hands, and the whole battle entered a white-hot state.

In this battle, the Jiangnan army had a great advantage in terms of strength with 65,000 people against 40,000 people, and there were also two well-trained elite armies in the Jiangnan army, although the 20,000 Jingzhao army was very strong in combat, but the soldiers were all northerners and were not very suitable for the humid climate in Jiangnan.

In addition, the combat effectiveness of the 20,000 surrendered troops that had just been recruited was too weak, which dragged down the overall operation, and even put the Jingzhao army at a disadvantage.

At this time, Xiang Fa smiled slightly proudly, he had already seen that the strength of his army was slightly better than that of the Jingzhao army, and they were still fighting at home, no matter what, they would definitely win this battle.

At this moment, three rockets appeared in the sky, making a crisp explosion in the air, followed by a muffled thunderous roar from the north.

A personal soldier beside Xiang Fa pointed to the north and shouted: "Look, big handsome! ”

He pointed in the northwest direction, his face was full of horror, and he looked at Fa Shun and his finger, and was also surprised, and saw a cavalry of about five or six thousand men struck out from the woods in the northeast three miles away, waving their banners and waving their banners, and the momentum was terrifying, and they were rapidly slaying in this direction.

The head of the general has an extremely strong black horse in his crotch, holding a pair of eight-sided purple gold hammers and wearing a silver helmet, which is Cao Meng, the first fierce general of the Jingzhao Army.

Xiang Fa strangled the war horse, and was so shocked that he took a few steps back, and nearly six thousand cavalry were killed, he suddenly felt the pressure like a mountain, and the intention of running away was born in his heart, Xiang Fa tried his best to stabilize his mind, waved his long sword, and shouted: "The cavalry fights!" ”

Xiang Fa only had 1,000 cavalry in his hand, and it was heavy cavalry, which was a sharp weapon he was going to use against Li Yanqing's 3,000 cavalry.

This thousand cavalry was led by Xiang Zongliang's adopted son Xiang Yong.

Xiang Yong is also known as the first fierce general of the Jiangnan Army, with strong martial arts and infinite strength, and he is nicknamed Saizhuan Zhu, making a 120-pound wrought iron stick.

Xiang Yong's original surname is Qin, called Qin Yong, is a hunter in Nanyang County, ten years ago Xiang Zongliang went to the manor in Nanyang County to play, and accidentally saw this stunned boy who was only eighteen years old at the time, Xiang Yong carried a wild boar weighing three hundred pounds down the mountain, Xiang Zongliang was shocked by his strength, so he adopted him as an adopted son and changed his name to Xiang Yong.

Xiang Zongliang has carefully cultivated Xiang Yong since then, asked famous teachers to teach him martial arts and cavalry archery, and finally trained Xiang Yong into a fierce general who bravely runs through the three armies.

Xiang Yong heard his brother Xiang Fa's order, he immediately raised his horn and blew it, dozens of horn players blew it together, 'Woo-' Xiang Yong waved a big iron rod and led a thousand heavily armored iron cavalry to rush away to meet the opponent's cavalry.

One thousand iron cavalry is all heavy armored cavalry, immediately covered with armor, can resist bows and arrows, cavalry is selected from the 80,000 Jiangnan Army, all of them are outstanding in martial arts, well-equipped, become the most elite army of the Jiangnan Army, rarely participate in battles, but today Xiang Xiang is afraid of the accidental killing of 6,000 cavalry, he finally ordered this iron cavalry to fight.

A thousand heavily armored iron cavalry galloped at a high speed, like a powerful iron stream, and instantly rushed murderously in front of the six thousand cavalry led by Cao Meng, 'Boom! There was an earth-shattering bang, and the powerful impact of the heavily armored iron cavalry actually knocked hundreds of cavalry to the ground.

A thousand heavily armored cavalry were extremely brave, and in an instant, more than 100 Jingzhao cavalry were overturned and slashed to death, and for a while the ground was full of stumps and broken bodies, bloody and pungent, and they were so choked that they couldn't breathe.

Although the heavy armor and iron cavalry were extremely brave, they still suffered heavy losses in front of the Jing Zhao army, which was six times their size, and the blades passed, and the people turned on their backs, and the blood flowed like a torrent.

Xiang Yong couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, he roared, rushed forward on his horse, brandished a big stick and slashed left and right, killing more than ten people in a row, and the cavalry saw him rushing forward, and they were so frightened that they turned around and fled.

Xiang Yong saw that the enemy was embarrassed, laughed, he laughed, Cao Meng killed from the oblique stab, and roared, "The thief will die!" ”

Xiang Yong smiled, the big stick in his hand hit like a shadow, Cao Meng swung the hammer and smashed it, the sledgehammer carried a gust of wind and smashed it, the hammer and stick collided, just listen to 'dang! There was a loud bang, and the two horses retreated several steps.

"Good boy, eat me again!"

Cao Meng hadn't met such a powerful opponent for a long time, and he was extremely excited in his heart, swinging his hammer and fighting again.

But Xiang Yong is no longer the Leng boy of the year, ten years of hearing and seeing, so that he gradually lost his nature, ten years of he has done all kinds of evil, ruthless and vicious, behind the back is called Xiang wolf.

Although Cao Meng was his rare opponent, he did not intend to win by force, and when the two horses staggered, he stepped on the stirrup hard, and a poisoned arrow shot out of the stirrup, hitting Cao Meng's horse in the hind hip.

Cao Meng's war horse screamed violently, and his front hooves were raised high, knocking Cao Meng to the ground, and the war horse immediately knelt on the ground, foaming at the mouth, and died of poison.

Xiang Yong was overjoyed, and smashed it on Cao Meng's head with a swing of his stick.

At this moment, a wolf's tooth arrow 'whoosh!' The ground shot straight to Yong's throat.
