At eight o'clock the next morning, Li Ming's army had already begun to assemble, and the soldiers drank hot porridge in an orderly manner, quickly suppressing the chill of the early morning. According to Li Ming's instructions, the Huotou Army prepared river fresh porridge for the soldiers, and put ginger shreds in it to dispel the cold.

After breakfast, the soldiers only felt warm and warm. They immediately gathered at the call of their respective officers. Come to the front line and line up. Li Ming's actions on this side naturally alarmed the other party's scouts, and after the report was reported, Ji Ling gave an order while scolding his mother, and the whole army was assembled.

As a result, more than 500 soldiers occasionally felt cold in the middle of the night, and directly became wounded soldiers. More than 200 people were frostbitten, and more than a dozen auxiliary soldiers were directly frozen to death in the middle of the night. Morale has also been affected and lowered a lot.

"This battle has not yet been fought, and we have lost so many soldiers, and we don't have to fight for a few more days!" Ji Ling was immediately annoyed, Li Ming, the initiator, was naturally the object of his greatest hatred. It's not the middle of November, and it's the middle of winter, and according to the calendar, yesterday was just the heavy snow in the 24 solar terms, so it's no wonder it's so cold.

"Don't be afraid of ......" Liang Gang shook his body, it seems that this person was also cold last night, "The other party is similar, the other party is less than us!" If you really want to consume it, the other party will only retreat first! ”

"General, there are two teams of men and horses on the other side, and it seems that they are planning to come over and call for battle!" Le pointed to the army opposite. Sure enough, at this moment, two troops left the headquarters and came to the front line, which were the Zulang Department and the Li Tong Department.

"X's, the soldiers are all leather jackets under their armor, no wonder they dare to attack in winter!" Ji Ling saw the outfit of the other soldier's attire from a distance, and was immediately annoyed. Leather jackets are scarce in the Central Plains, after all, to get enough leather goods, either can only be purchased in the south, or on the grassland. To be warm, it is best to use a sheepskin jacket to be the warmest.

For Li Ming, leather jackets can be obtained by hunting and buying, and the price is fair. Relatively speaking, on Yuan Shu's side, it is not so cheap to buy skins, the key is that he didn't expect Li Ming to fight in winter, and the hoarded skins can only be made into leather jackets in a hurry, but in terms of quantity, it is estimated that only officers and elite troops can get it.

"There's no need to worry!" Yang Hong frowned, "The other party has only temporarily maintained the temperature of his torso, his limbs are still frozen, and his activities are no different from ours." The key is that the other party is so bloated, and the activity is not as good as ours, the key is to see the result of the weapon fight! ”

"My subordinates are willing to go over and meet them!" Li Feng surrendered his hand to the battle.

"Go and try their depth, be careful not to push it up, we're just going to hold each other down!" Ji Ling nodded and said.

"Subordinates take orders!" Li Feng surrendered his hand and immediately led his infantry to kill them.

"General, do you want to order the cavalry to charge?" Liang Gang stepped forward to ask, at this moment the other party is all foot soldiers, although there are a thousand archers, if the cavalry is sent over at this moment, a charge can still completely disperse them.

"There's no need, look over there, their cavalry units are also preparing to charge! Knowing that this means that these foot soldiers are only being used to test our strength, but on the contrary, we also happen to understand the strength of Li Ming's army through them! Ji Ling said slowly, he was born in a family, and his vision is naturally not comparable to others.

The two sides on the field have already been prepared at this moment, and seeing that the distance between the two sides is still about 500 meters, they brazenly launched a charge.

The archers did not move, which meant that although Li Tong was on guard and ready to shoot, at this stage, he could only watch the foot soldiers led by Zu Lang collide with the other party.

"Kill!" Zu Lang shouted, and he actually rushed out first, and the sword in his hand suddenly swung out, instantly cutting off the five enemies in front of him.

"Cut, isn't it winter?!" Zu Lang was obviously not satisfied with this result, after all, his slash was to integrate the sword wind, which meant that while killing the opponent, the sword wind should be generated, impacting the enemy behind them.

The five enemy soldiers were killed, but the sword wind did not appear, and it was obvious that the force of the slash was not enough. But is it really not enough? Over the past few years, Zulang's strength has become bigger and bigger, and his strength is enough!

It's just that he fought in winter, but his hands were a little frozen, and he couldn't exert eighty percent of his strength, and he fought hard to strike a blow and then passed through the buffer of the body of five enemy soldiers, and his power was sharply reduced, and the follow-up sword wind naturally couldn't be used.

At the same time, the sword and shield soldiers on both sides had already collided. With the command of officers at all levels, both sides are advancing step by step, and every step forward of the non-commissioned officers on both sides means the death of the enemy on the opposite side.

With a "bang", a soldier on Yuan Shu's side actually cut off the ring-head knife in his hand, and was immediately killed by the enemy army next to him. With the first, there is naturally a second, and a third......

"Sure enough, the weapons have become a lot more brittle in winter!" Ji Ling quickly realized this problem, and immediately looked at the enemy soldiers, their weapons were also damaged, but they were relatively rare, "The quality of weapons needs to be improved!" ”

"Damn, why is the other party's strength so ...... Belch! "A senior commander of Li Feng's department fought hard with a soldier of the enemy army a few times, only to find that the other party was not as tall as himself, but his strength was almost the same as him. The two sides fought four or five moves, but there was no result, but in the end, it was the enemy next to him who killed one of his subordinates, and attacked him in the back before cutting off his head.

"Watch the formation!" Zu Lang shouted, and his own army, which had always been in absolute superiority, quickly began to assemble according to the situation of friendly forces. Below the generals, the non-commissioned officers were required to strictly obey orders, and pay attention to queues and cooperation.

Perhaps having been taught too many times, the soldiers heard the order and immediately reverted to the loose formation. Li Feng originally planned to take the opportunity to drill into the weakest place of defense and take the opportunity to eat part of the enemy army. Who knew that Zu Lang gave an order, and this group of mud legs was assembled so quickly, which really made him feel a sense of decadence.

"Assemble, assemble for me!" Li Feng also tried to shout, but the soldiers below did not say that their morale had fallen to a certain extent, and they themselves had not trained to line up for a long time. In addition to panicking, he made mistakes repeatedly, but it became a mess.

Of course, Zu Lang would not let go of this good opportunity, and with a loud shout, the soldiers immediately followed him straight in.

"Mingjin, let that idiot come back!" Ji Ling naturally saw that the general trend had gone, so he could only order Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

There was a sound of metal being struck, and Li Feng naturally heard from the voice that it was the news that the headquarters had asked for the troops to be withdrawn. At this moment, he was unwilling, but about 30% of his soldiers had been killed, but he had only killed more than a dozen soldiers of the other side before and after.

It's just that the enemy army quickly assembled again, and the defense was basically watertight, and if they wanted to confront it head-on, they didn't know how many sons they had to sacrifice in order to tear through the opponent's defense.

In desperation, Li Feng could only lead the army to retreat, and Zu Lang also returned to the headquarters with an unfinished expression.

"Lord, the soldiers on the other side are all frozen, such an existence, I can fight a thousand!" Zu Lang said excitedly.

"It's good to have confidence, but don't get carried away either. But now it seems that the enemy army is really not very good! Li Ming scolded with a smile, then looked at Ji Ling's camp and muttered thoughtfully.
