Chapter 102: Drawing a Bow Like a Full Moon (5)
Fan Xiang waved the dragon in his hand and drummed forward. Aisha held the yak horn in her hand and blew the horn of the march, and the sound of "woo" pierced the night sky of the battlefield with a poignant sound. Chun Yu Tiying's red Tang knife battle flag hunting, followed behind Fan Xiang, led the twenty-eight sharp soldiers to break through from it, the wall-breaking army waved the Mo knife, and advanced from the two wings like a wall, Ayiguli led a three-person team and Jian Xi led a thousand women's army to follow, crossbow arrows were fired in a volley, and gunpowder roared.
The enemy troops behind the palace fell one after another with arrows and retreated in the gunpowder of the bombardment.
The leading lieutenant general Xiaotian Wolf saw that the twenty-eight sharp soldiers brought by Fanxiang came from the rear of the west, and where he passed, the army was wiped out, and the situation was extremely vicious, and he saw that the high slopes of the sand dunes in the south were all poplar forests, the forest was full of smoke, the figures were longing, there was fire everywhere, the mountains were full of fires, and as far as the eye could see, endlessly, only the noise of people and horses could be heard, and I did not know how many troops were hidden in the forest.
The deputy general Xiao Tian Wolf said in his heart: "It turns out that these bandit troops have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses hidden here, and our army is now deeply surrounded, outnumbered, and I am afraid of ...... 'M afraid....... He didn't know that this was Fanxiang's plan to show strength, Zhu Jianqiang and Yin Yan took each soldier to burn more than a dozen fires, and from a distance, in the smoke screen, the momentum was amazing. Looking to the north, he saw that the river canals were vertical and horizontal, and there was no way to open up an army formation, and only the east side was left in depth, so he shouted: "All the troops rushed east with me to the west gate, and if this gate is broken, everyone can live." ”
Waving the long knife in his hand, he split a few sergeants who ran in a panic, and after leading the troops to break, he commanded the troops behind the palace to line up the giant sickle chariot in a formation of three, three, five, and five, and was about to drive.
Fan Xiang led the team to approach the enemy army behind the hall, the earth mole god horse is quite powerful, seeing the enemy chariot in front of the rung, bow his head and sweep, the four strong horns on the top of the head swept out, when he pry open the chariot in front of him, Fan Xiang is also wielding the animation dragon Qingtian halberd, sweeping the chariot that is blocking the way, clearing a road, and the twenty-eight sharp soldiers bravely enter.
Yong Yisheng led the sharp soldiers, rushed left and right in the enemy formation, saw the enemy surrounded by the torch, under the light of the torch, the howling wolf waved the long knife, shouted and shouted to command the enemy to defend, resist the attack of the elite team, then shouted, rushed forward, waved the Mo knife to take the enemy commander deputy general Xiaotian wolf.
In the chaos of the army, the howling wolf shouted, with a long knife in his hand to fight, in the night secretly did not distinguish between the west and the east, did not have time to dodge, was cut into two pieces by Yong Yisheng, and then cut off the head with a knife, the horse went over, leaned over and grabbed the head, tied the hair in a knot, hung it behind the saddle, shouted loudly, jumped the horse and crossed the knife, and killed the chaotic enemy army.
Seeing the fierce situation, all the enemy troops shouted and gathered in unison, and retreated to the eastern meadow.
The enemy brigade poured deep into the meadow to the east.
In the confusion, bundles of burning oil reed haystacks were pushed out of the poplar forest to the south, and the haystacks trapped and burned the enemy soldiers who wanted to hide in the woods. At the same time, the arrows that had been lit on fire shot out of the woods like locusts. Thick smoke rose from the haystacks at the edge of the forest, stirred by the cold wind of the night blowing from the snow-capped mountains to the south, and when it landed, the enemy troops on the meadow were enveloped in it, and they could not see their fingers.
Behind the battle, there were thousands of troops shouting and shouting, if thousands of troops and horses were coming, the enemy army was covered by thick smoke, and did not distinguish between truth and falsehood, and the army was disorganized, crowded together, trampled on each other, and countless were killed by arrows, or trampled to death by their own military horses.
In the confusion, the enemy army rushed to the east, trampling the dead and uncountable.
Smoke billowed from the formation, and there was no direction. The enemy troops in front suddenly exclaimed in unison and shouted: "Oh no, there is a big mud in front." ”
In the panic, I saw that thousands of enemy soldiers and horses were already rolling in the mud and falling into the soft mud of the swamp. This big mud swamp has a radius of more than 20 miles, and the soft mud is dozens of zhang deep, in the dark night, as far as the eye can see, without warning, all the enemy troops are trapped here, there is no way to retreat, there is no way to live in front, it is actually into the Jedi.
More and more soldiers of the Beigong servant army fell into the swamp and quagmire, and the rear team wanted to run out, the south was full of fire, the west was like locusts, and the brave and powerful men held their shields.
I wanted to break through the siege in the west, shouting to meet the death, but how could I stop the Mo knife of the wall-breaking army advancing like a wall, and in the heavy blade slashing, many soldiers were cut into two sections by the wall-breaking army with a knife and a man and a horse, and the rest of the soldiers panicked and trampled on each other, and involuntarily squeezed into the swamp quagmire one by one.
The soldiers and soldiers who fell into the swamp, no matter how hard they struggled, were tightly pulled by the soft mud of the swamp, and slowly ripped off their bodies little by little, the soft mud ate the lower limbs, waist and abdomen, and overflowed the mouth and nose of nervous breathing, and finally, the soft mud covered the top of the head, only the hands were still waving weakly, and the dull moaning gradually subsided, and after a while, Zhang Qu's ten fingers also sank into the mud, no blood splashed, and no stumps were broken, and a living human or demon sergeant ceased to exist, as if nothing had happened.
Countless soldiers of the Beigong Servant Army hissed and shouted in this huge Shura field, and gradually, the shouting stopped. More and more of the Beigong servant army fell into the swamp, and in less than half an hour, more than 30,000 servant soldiers were forced into the big quagmire.
At this time, Pig Jianqiang led the army out of the poplar forest, joined forces with Fanxiang's elite team, and gradually forced the enemy army into the swamp, crossbow arrows flew away, and the hunting ground for hunting became smaller and smaller.
The earth-shattering shouts of killing, and the terrible shouts of the four fields, covered up the rumbling drums and horns on the battle array.
The rest of the Beigong servants, in the billowing smoke, only felt that there were killings everywhere in all directions, and many sergeants had already broken their morale, so they panicked and fled to the north.
Ayiguli and Chun Yu Tiying stood behind Fan Xiang, in the smoke, shining through the faint torches, but they saw countless soldiers and horses of the Beigong servant army trapped in the big mud, tightly glued, like loaches in a half-dried mud pit, desperately squirming, screaming miserably, and couldn't help but shed tears, they all looked at Fan Xiang and said: "Brother Fan Xiang, if there is no war in this world, how good it would be!"
Fan Xiang looked at the trapped people who were desperately squirming in the swamp, her eyes condensed, and she was silent.
The enemy forces on the edge of the swamp broke out and swarmed like swarms towards the lake.
The sound of water splashing in Swan Lake, the devil's rout and the elite rebel army ambushed by the lake intersected, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
Fan Xiang saw the remaining enemy troops fleeing north along the edge of the swamp, so he turned to face the soldiers behind him, his eyes were cold, and he slid over the faces of Zhu Jianqiang, Yin Yan, Yong Yisheng, Ayiguli, Chun Yu Tiying, Jian Xi and others one by one, calm and firm, and said loudly: "Think about how many people with lofty ideals have died in this war provoked by the Beigong Heavenly Court over the years, how many innocent people have been hanged on tree trunks, how many women have been eaten by them as two-legged sheep, and how many prosperous and peaceful cities and villages have been slaughtered overnight. ”
The cold eyes stayed on Ayiguli's face, stared at it for a while, calmed his voice, and continued: "In the Exquisite Ancient City, more than 4,000 people were slaughtered overnight, and only more than 300 of you, the old and weak women and children, were left to hide and escape this catastrophe, tell me, what should we do?"
Ayiguli didn't dare to look at Fanxiang's murderous eyes, lowered her head, and raised the back of her hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Fan Xiang looked at everyone, his eyes were cold and solemn, and continued: "The defenders of the city are the ones who want to hurt the enemy. Cast into the land of death and then survive, fall into the land of death and then live. Kindness to the enemy is the murder of a loved one. We must now fight a quick battle, fight to the death with the last stubborn enemy, and those who refuse to surrender will be killed!"
Turning around, facing the enemy fleeing north, he stabbed the void of the dragon Qingtian halberd in his hand, and ordered in a loud voice: "Brother Pig, General Yin Yan, you and others will lead the troops to continue to chase and kill, and the Rui Shi and the wall-breaking army will catch up, and the troops will be surrounded and routed from the west, and they must be completely annihilated, and there must be no mistakes." Ayiguli led a three-person team to cooperate with Jian Xi's Niangzi First Army to attack with me on the northward journey, preparing more gunpowder arrows. Kill the enemy, and those who violate the order will be killed!"
"Wow!" everyone listened to Fanxiang's instructions, and they were all full of blood and energy, and they took the order to go.
Ayiguli saw that he stepped over the earth mole divine horse, wielding the halberd in his hand, commanding the army, resolute and resolute, majestic, and suddenly felt in his heart
I like it inexplicably, my face can't help but blush, and I hurriedly pulled out the Tang knife on my waist, pulled Jian Xi, and led the women's army to the north with Fan Xiang to kill.
Fan Xiang took Ayiguli and Jian Xi and a thousand women's army, galloping north along the edge of the swamp to the Swan Lake, and the sound of gold and iron was endless. I saw thousands of elite soldiers struggling to defend a wooden bridge in the water depression by Swan Lake, the wooden bridge had been torn down from the planks, but the remaining devil soldiers still clinging to the bridge railing and rushed to the grassland outside the north gate.
The Meiling Sanzhang brothers led a thousand old and weak soldiers, guarding the bridgehead, holding a five-foot Miao family knife, fighting hard with the enemy army that had been snatched over, and they were not afraid of death.
Between the depressions by the lake, Wei Zhan commanded the soldiers to fire crossbow arrows and fight with the rout soldiers in front of him. Arrows like locusts, carrying oil flames, shot at the enemy soldiers along the shores of Swan Lake.
There were still more than 10,000 enemy troops, swarming on the shores of Swan Lake.
At this time, Mei Duoer had already led the thirteen Ying and the two ladies of the thousand-man team to prepare the bombardiers, and the ladies threw oil artillery into the scattered enemy formation. Mei Duoer saw that many enemy troops were climbing the remnant bridge and rushing towards the north gate, so she left a thousand women to operate the cannon, and led the thirteen Ying and a thousand women to rush over, and the one thousand soldiers led by Meiling Sanzhang converged to resist the enemy army on the grassland of the north gate.
Seeing that the enemy army was still crowded, Fan Xiang ordered Jian Xi to collect the chariots and bombardiers abandoned by the enemy outside the Ximen Marsh, and drove to the unflooded meadow on the shore of Swan Lake.
Jian Xi obeyed the order and led a thousand-strong women's army to push the enemy's abandoned bomb throwers to the meadow to the north, lined up, loaded the bombs, ignited, and prepared to launch.
Fan Xiang looked at the bomb throwers lined up on the sand dunes, and shouted: "The elite army retreats, and the bomb throwers obey the order and kill all the devils who refuse to surrender!"
Jian Xi took the women's army who operated the cannon, placed the gunpowder shells and oil incendiary bombs in the trebuchet, and ordered them to be fired.
"Array!"
"Draw the bow!"
"Bomb dropping!"
As soon as Jian Xi's words fell, he saw hundreds of glowing gunpowder shells and oil shells, flying like thunder and lightning towards the enemy troops on the lakeside.
I only heard the loud roaring sound, which was endless, deafening, filled with black smoke, and explosives erupted everywhere under the feet of the devil soldiers by the lake, and the fireworks soared into the sky, only the flesh and blood flew everywhere. The enemy soldiers who were in chaos by the lake were on fire, and the rest of the team was in chaos. At the same time, arrows were fired from the south, south, and west, and there was nowhere to escape, so they fell into the lake one after another.
As soon as the enemy soldiers fell into the river, the arrows of the elite army were like locusts, and they could not be avoided, and they were shot into hedgehogs when they landed. Thousands of enemy soldiers who could not swim fled westward, and were intercepted by the Rui Shi and the wall-breaking army at the puddle by the lake, and each of them was killed. The rest were crushed into an army, and in a short time they were all surrounded and annihilated by the elite army.
On the shore of the lake, there are corpses and soldiers everywhere, and in the early morning twilight night, on the rippling lake, floating, full of banners, armor, ordnance and baggage. The whole battlefield was littered with corpses, and hundreds of wounded enemy soldiers with broken limbs and legs were sleeping in puddles on the shore of Swan Lake, screaming in pain.
Fanxiang ordered all battalions to clean up the battlefield and treat the living prisoners well.
It was a battle, the elite rebel army fought the biggest victory since the war with the Beigong servant army, at a small cost of only more than 600 casualties, completely annihilated the Beigong servant army Nangong Yi led the right west expeditionary army of 50,000 elite soldiers, the leading general Nangong Yi died in this battle, since then it ended its glory in the Beigong servant army, for the Beigong Heavenly Court, the Beigong servant army in the conquest of another world, the earliest highest-level general to die in battle.
This battle also shook the gods in the highest war situation official of the Beigong Heavenly Court, and also made the supreme commander in charge of the conquest of the other world theater, Qiu Yuanye, furious.
The battle ended at dawn, and the soldiers and civilians of the city were full of joy, hugging and cheering each other, lighting several bonfires outside the north gate of the exquisite ancient city, and singing and dancing all day long at the beginning of dawn to celebrate the victory.
