Just when Wang Huaqiang was patiently popularizing science to Pei Shiju, the barbarians on the opposite side had already led the team to complete it again, this time it was more than 3,000 barbarians with shields who took the lead, they didn't see the battle situation in front of them just now, but after changing to the front, they suddenly saw the tragic situation of corpses all over the field in front of them, and their hearts were cold, and their desire to make contributions was also hit by those corpses that shot like hedgehogs. escaped this catastrophe by playing dead and deserting.

Zhou Shiju saw that the soldiers in front of him did not have the momentum of the last charge, and his heart was anxious, and he ran to the front of the entire queue with his legs between the belly of the horse, riding the short-legged brown-maned horse, patrolling back and forth in front of the formation, and giving an inspiring speech to the soldiers.

Wang Huaqiang on the side of the Sui army looked at a guy on a horse, wearing leather armor, and full of colorful feathers walking around in front of the battle, and the barbarians everywhere they passed cheered, smiled and pointed at this person with a horsewhip, and said to Pei Shiju: "Hongdae, do you see it, this person must be the leader of the barbarians, it is the Zhou Shiju, after a while, after a fight, you have to find a way to capture this person alive!" ”

Pei Shiju nodded first, and then suddenly felt that something was wrong, and asked suspiciously: "Hua Qiang, didn't you leave no prisoners?" ”

Wang Huaqiang laughed, his expression became terrifying: "Capturing this guy alive is not for him to die too easily on the battlefield, this brute is the culprit who slaughtered our Han villages, don't cut him with a thousand knives, I'm really sorry for the souls of our people, Hongdae." You will go up to the table to impeach me for killing prisoners indiscriminately. Undermine the policy of high servant shooting? ”

Pei Shiju sighed: "Hua Qiang." You always have your own reasoning, forget it, it's still at war, now you have the final say, after the war, you better don't mess around, leave it to me, the ambassador of the Lingnan governor. ”

Wang Huaqiang knew that Pei Shiju would not let his wish come true, so he just smiled. didn't say much, at this time, the barbarians on the opposite side had already listened to Zhou Shiju's lecture, and their morale was reinvigorated, and the more than 3,000 barbarians of the front army were like a group of crazy fighting primitives, desperately banging on their shields, venting the breath in their chests with the largest decibels, and their bare feet were constantly stepping on the dirt on the ground, even the most timid cowards would become blood-red in this battle cry, and their fighting spirit would be high.

Zhou Shiju rode back to the center. Slap the horse's ass and drive the horse away. He took a wooden shield, and it seemed that he was ready to lead the charge.

Wang Huaqiang sneered, and said to the herald behind him: "Command the teams, the leader with feathers in front of the enemy army, I want to capture him alive, and those who are captured alive will be counted as one hundred heads!" ”

More than a dozen heralds behind Wang Huaqiang rode horses and quickly rushed to each team, word of mouth, and soon, the whole army of 3,000 people knew this order, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhou Shiju's body, as if looking at a hundred heads.

Zhou Shiju gritted his teeth, and the long knife was slapped, and the distance between the bow and arrow was only sixty to eighty steps, and only after rushing through the hundred steps first, did he need to put the shield on his head.

Soon, the barbarians rushed to a distance of two hundred paces, and the crossbowmen of the Xiangzhou army once again discharged the geese marching array, and directly began to shoot after the formation was completed, but this time, everyone's crossbow arrows all consciously avoided Zhou Shiju, who was like an Indian chieftain, and the crossbow arrows flew past Zhou Shiju with a whistling sound that broke the air, hitting the shields of the barbarians behind him.

Although the small round wooden shield was much stronger than the protection of the naked impact just now, it still couldn't stop the penetration of the three-stone infantry crossbow at a distance of more than a hundred steps, and the hands of many barbarians were directly nailed to the shield, screaming in pain, and this round of Yalan shot down more than 200 people at once.

But the brute soldiers behind still did not stop their footsteps, Zhou Shiju rushed to a range of a hundred steps, which is also the place where the corpses on the ground are most concentrated, there is this natural reference line, he roared: "Raise the shield!" He raised his shield high above his head, and the barbarians behind him rushed past him like a tide, but no one realized that Zhou Shiju stopped cunningly.

Wang Huaqiang's nose snorted disdainfully: "I thought there were still some kinds of barbarians, and I dared to lead the charge in person, but I didn't expect that he was also a ghost who was afraid of death, and he shrank back when he rushed to the front of the formation, and passed my order, the archers shot freely, and the enemy changed their shields to flat shooting, and the crossbowmen withdrew, freeing up the vision for the archers!" ”

This time, Wang Huaqiang's order was directly told to the governors in the front row, and the crossbowmen quickly sent out the second round of arrows, and then rushed to the rear team of their own side from the gap of ten steps between the teams, and the reserve team quickly ran forward, handed the spears and broadswords to the hands of the crossbowmen, and by the way, helped them put on the chain mail that they had not worn just now.

Now it was the turn of the archers to play freely, and the feathered arrows in the quivers were fired at an astonishing speed, and the barbarians were swept down in pieces like wheat harvesters, and from two hundred to fifty paces, the barbarians fell more than a thousand more, most of them in the face of the hedgehogs when their shields were raised.

But this time, the barbarians behind also knew that if they retreated at this time, there would be death and no life, and advancing in the rain of arrows was the only way to live, at least they had rushed to a distance of fifty paces, and they could enter the state of hand-to-hand combat if they gritted their teeth, and they were still very confident in their hand-to-hand combat ability.

Wang Huaqiang shook his head and waved the flag: "The archers retreat, and the lancers step forward!" ”

The archers of the second row were all scattered, retreating from the gaps on both sides of the team to the back of the formation, and the long lance men of the third and fourth rows finally waited for the opportunity to play, and the eyes of the two holes showed the desire to make a meritorious achievement, and they walked with neat steps, more than two zhang wide, and the long lance that had been pointing to the sky was put down, and the end was level with the shoulders, forming an unstoppable steel forest, and crushing the brute soldiers about thirty paces ahead.

The barbarians who rushed to the front were only more than twenty steps away from the lancers, and they wondered why so many dense spears came out behind those archers at once, and dozens of people who rushed too fast couldn't hold their feet, so they pounced directly into the lance phalanx, and directly stabbed into a string of people, and the sharp spear tip pierced out of the barbarian's back, and the lance hung a still struggling body, and continued to move forward.

The barbarians had never seen this kind of fighting, even the people who rushed to the front stopped their steps, and watched in horror as this steel forest pressed towards them, and some people with good brains took out their crossbow blowguns and blew them at the long lance hands on the opposite side, but in front of the fish-scale chain mail, this kind of bamboo blow arrows could not penetrate at all, and people still had a few poisonous arrows hanging on the armor leaves, pressing towards themselves without any influence.

A dark cloud flew in the air again, it turned out that the archers of the Xiangzhou army retreated to the back row, replenished the arrows, followed behind the line of the long lance soldiers, while advancing, while releasing arrows forward, cleaning the back row of the barbarian army with a rain of arrows, in the blink of an eye, the barbarians in the rear were hundreds of people whose heads were shot through by arrows, and they didn't have time to snort, and they became fresh corpses on the ground.

With the attack of the rain of arrows, the last bit of morale of the barbarians was gone, I don't know who shouted first, more than 1,000 barbarians in front of them threw away the wooden shields in their hands, and began to scramble to flee backwards, because the distance was too close, the barbarians in front and the troops following up collided for a while, and the entire barbarian camp was already in a mess and collapsed.

Wang Huaqiang looked coldly at the chaotic enemy army in front of him, and quickly ordered one by one: "The left flank goes forward, cut off the direction of the enemy's escape to the east, and the middle and right armies continue to move forward and drive the enemy army down the city!" Ten teams of reserves in the rear, mounted on pack horses, ready to pursue the enemy! By the way, Iron Rod, you used to shout in slang and catch Zhou Shiju! Grab this. As he spoke, he threw the iron horn in his hand to the iron rod. (To be continued......)
