Chapter 13 The Warrior's Feud
The spear is always one of the most effective weapons for the infantry against the horses, and these infantry soldiers follow behind the horses, waiting for the enemy horses to penetrate the formation and deal them a heavy blow!
But the murderers and the killed on the battlefield are never fixed.
Li Congjing, as the main general, charged in the front row, so he was also the first to see these Liang army infantry people, but seeing these Liang troops, Li Congjing was not the slightest flustered, as an old pawn in the army, such a formation layout was not new in front of him.
"Out of the lance!" Li Congjing roared, the horse lance in his hand, followed by the throw, and pulled out the second horizontal knife at his waist, "Change the knife!" β
In fact, there is no need for him to shout, and the knights around him also know what to do about this matter - because Li Congjing had already stated it before the charge! He shouted at this time, just to remind the sergeants who killed the red eyes and had no brains to turn around.
The lance is like a forest, and the horse lance with a length of eight zhang falls into the infantry formation, although it is not as good as a grenade, but the lethality should not be underestimated. Screams rang out one after another, and in the gun-wielding infantry formation, one by one the sergeants immediately fell, especially the sergeants in the front row, because they were the key objects of care, and they suffered heavy casualties. Dense forest of spears, immediately appear in neutral!
Li Congjing drew his sword and jumped into the formation, and the galloping war horse was as fast as a gust of wind - the huge momentum brought by the horse's speed alone was not something that a single foot soldier could shake!
Cavalry against infantry, relying on the power brought by the speed of horses.
Standing on the horse, Li Congjing bowed down and swung his knife again and again, or slashed at the spear, cut off the spear, or slashed at Liang Jun's body, which was a huge wound.
In fact, as long as the speed of the war horse is fast enough, the cavalry does not need to swing the knife at all on the horse, only need to hold the long knife, and with the speed of the horse, the blade can tear apart the body of one enemy after another!
The cavalry of the galloping progressive army formation, like a boulder entering the river, crushed forward with incomparable might!
But the spear is good at the cavalry, not just talking, many Jin cavalry were stabbed off their horses by spears. After the knights fell off their horses in the infantry formation, few of them survived, and they were basically chopped to death by random knives.
The cavalry has an incomparable advantage over the infantry, and the spear has an advantage over the cavalry, but it is not a sentence that can be said who will die. War is like this, you can never find a class or way of fighting that can crush the opponent forever, and the subtlety of victory or defeat on the battlefield lies in this.
Li Congjing in the infantry formation fought hard. Suddenly, several spears stabbed at him at the same time, both on the left and right. Li Congjing let out a low snort, hooked the stirrup with his left foot, and held the saddle with one hand, but his body fell to the right side of the horse's body, avoiding the spear on the left, and at the same time swinging the knife out with his right hand, blocking the spear on the right again.
When he sat back on the horse, Li Congjing put the horizontal knife into the sheath, which seemed random, but in fact, he could not quickly and accurately put the horizontal knife into the sheath without training for a long time. Immediately afterwards, Li Congjing picked up the spare horse lance on the side of the saddle, and the lance swung out, blocking the spear and tearing a hole in Liang Jun's body.
Li Congjing in the military formation, charging at the forefront, where he passed, the blood that rushed all the way was sprinkled in the air like flying petals. The Liang army on both sides of his war horse, from time to time, sergeants fell one after another, like weeds that had been cut down.
His steps forward were firm and unshakable, even if a spear grazed his body, causing him pain and making him bleed, but his eyes were always fixed on the front, and the long lance in his hand waved so that only afterimages could be seen, and his fighting figure was tall and vigorous, and no one could stop him from moving forward.
The enemy may injure him and take away his blood, but they can't take away his will to kill, and they can't take away his fighting figure.
His body, like a gate to hell, brought death to the places he passed.
He is Li Congjing, and more and more enemies will remember his name.
After killing through the Liang army's infantry formation, Li Congjing was already covered in blood, there was his own, but more of Liang Jun's, because there were many people killed, there was no half of the flesh on his face, it was all blood red. Sticky blood hung from his eyes, droplets of blood accumulated, falling as he blinked, or stuck to his eyelashes.
When he turned his horse's head and prepared to turn back, the battlefield in front of him was unrecognizable.
A-for-tat confrontation will not make the battlefield too chaotic, but the cavalry and infantry fighting together will not seem very orderly. There will not be too many casualties in a charge, but there are also many corpses lying on the ground, blood and severed limbs mixed together, like a plate of bloody dishes.
The Liang army, who killed through the Jin army's infantry formation, did not choose to attack the Jin army's military camp, not to mention that there was a defensive line in front of the military camp, just handing over his back to the opponent and letting himself fall into the situation of being attacked by the enemy on his back was an act of looking for death.
Li Congjing reached out and wiped the blood from his face, and pointed forward with his long lance, just as he did when he began to charge into battle, and ordered: "Kill!" β
"Kill!" The cavalry of the Jin army behind him all roared and galloped out again.
This time, the two armies fought together, and the intensity of the war was a little higher.
The Liang army's command flag waved, and after the Liang army turned back, it began to move closer, with the infantry in front and the cavalry behind, and retreatedβthe purpose of the temptation had been achieved, and their commander was wounded, so naturally they should not fight again.
Li Congjing led the Jin army to chase and kill step by step, and let the Liang army pay its due price for the retreat.
In the military formation where the Liang army gathered, Li Congjing saw Wang Meng, the commander of the Liang army, who was running towards the city under the escort of a group of personal guards with one hand covering his chest and abdomen.
Although the Liang army retreated, the military formation was not in chaos. Because they went out of the city to attack the camp this time, the tentative meaning was heavier, and out of tactical arrangement, the time for fighting was not long, and the loss was not too great.
Except for the king, who was seriously injured.
Li Congjing suddenly stopped his pursuit, and seeing that the Liang army was about to enter the protection range of the crossbow on the city wall, he took off his longbow and took out an iron arrow from his quiver.
Standing on the spot, Li Congjing's hind foot moved back half a step, led the iron arrow onto the longbow, and the arrow was aimed at Wang Meng in the Liang army's array, and as he took a deep breath, his back hand slowly pulled the bowstring.
Li Congjing's eyes were calm, his focus was fixed on Wang Meng, and after the bowstring was pulled to the limit, he saw Wang Meng turn around.
The fingers of the tail of the arrow were clenched and loosened for a moment.
Iron arrows flew out.
Li Congjing exhaled, and Wang Meng's face in his eyes had changed to panic.
Iron arrows into the body.
The king struck his horse and walked away.
Li Congjing looked incredulous.
When his sharp arrow was shot, Wang Meng's personal guards found Li Congjing's movements and pounced on him to block the arrow.
"It's a big life." Li Congjing sighed secretly, shook his head and smiled bitterly, but he was helpless.
The Liang army retreated within the range of the bed crossbow, and Li Congjing stopped chasing and led the team to turn back and clean up the battlefield.
This tentative battle brought dozens of casualties to both sides, so there were more than 100 corpses on the ground, and there were many wounded who fell to the ground. This is the power of the victor to clean up the battlefield - saving people is very troublesome and laborious, and there is no humanitarianism in this era.
The sun finally sets, and night covers the land. Torches were lit at the head of Qimen City and the Jin army barracks, the battlefield was cleaned up, and the corpses were piled up and cremated together - if the corpses were accumulated and not treated, they could easily cause plague after deterioration, and the Jin army obviously did not have the time and energy to dig pits to bury them at the moment.
Li Congjing and all the soldiers stood in front of the pile of corpses, quietly looking at the pile of corpses that were on fire, and they were all silent. At this moment, the deceased is greater, and they give the deceased enough respect.
The vast universe is full of stars, and there is only a black shadow left in the green mountains and wilderness in the distance under the night sky, Li Congjing's eyes looked into the distance through the huge flames, and there was not much pride in his heart, but a little sentimental.
He suddenly thought that if he died here in battle and turned into a wisp of dust under this fire, he was afraid that it would be so quiet, right? In this era, human life is like a mustard, come here by yourself, and nothing will be left, right? It's so strange for people to always think about what to leave behind when they want to leave.
Li Congjing looked up at the night sky, her and their faces appeared in his mind, and he wanted to ask: How are you doing now?
Zhang Xiaowu knelt down in front of the fire, propped his hands on the ground, his fingers dug into the dirt, grabbed a handful of dirt fiercely, and choked up in a choked tone: "Mustache...... Go ahead and I'll take care of your mother for you,...... Won't leave her without food! β
"Mustache ......" Zhang Xiaowu's head hit the ground, and finally he sobbed, he curled up like a lonely injured wild dog, "Mustache...... I swear, I will avenge you! β
War means death, people always have friends and brothers, after the war not only win or lose, but also life and death.
In the Jin army in front of the fire, some people were sobbing in a low voice, some people were calm and silent, and some people were full of hatred.
Li Congjing walked over and pulled Zhang Xiaowu up. The mustache is from the pro-soldier team, and Li Congjing naturally knows him. Zhang Xiaowu wiped a handful of tears and looked at Li Congjing.
"Xiao Wu ......" Li Congjing wanted to say something, but his throat was a little hard, he paused, "Mustache is a good soldier, I won't let him die in vain, his mother, I will support you together." β
"Commander ......" Zhang Xiaowu didn't know what to say. After a pause, he said in a firm tone: "I must avenge the mustache!" β
As a warrior, what can you do for your dead comrades but avenge them?
Li Congjing nodded, let go of Zhang Xiaowu, turned to face Qimen, suddenly raised his hand, pointed to the head of Qimen City, and said loudly: "Tomorrow, the envoy will definitely take Qimen and hate his dead comrades!" β
After saying that, he turned to look at the soldiers, and asked with an awe-inspiring look in his eyes: "Wait, are you willing to work with this envoy to avenge the death of your comrades?!" β
"Yes!"
"Willing to follow the commander!"
"I'm Waiting to ......"
ββ¦β¦β
Li Congjing pulled out a long knife and pointed it directly at Qimen, his tone was sonorous, and said, "Qimen, this time you will go to the last battle!" This envoy is bound to lead Er and others to take Qimen, avenge the dead, earn military merits for the living, and benefit his wife and family! β
"I, Li Congjing, swear here, if I can't conquer Qimen, I will thank my comrades who follow this envoy!"
The hatred of the dead, the desire of the living, and the feelings of the main generals mobilized the emotions of the soldiers of the Jin army, and they roared one after another: "Conquer Qimen!" β
"Avenge the dead and earn military merit for your family!"
"Swear to follow the commander to the death!"
ββ¦β¦β
The Liang army at the head of Qimen City heard the oath of the earth-shattering Jin army that sounded in the night, and their colors changed.
