Chapter 427: Father and Son Soldiers in Battle (II)

In front of Yang Hu's position, the crossbowmen in his eyes were lined up in three to five columns, separating the hills and things, calmly adjusting the bracket and bowstring, the quiver swaying around his waist. The spearmen in a phalanx formation stood behind the crossbowmen, and behind them were rows of infantry with swords and shields, these people were steady and composed, worthy of defeating Zhao Wuxian's elite soldiers.

A few miles away, the left flank was handed over by Zhao Ying to Zhao Guangde's 1,000 Wendi soldiers, as well as the concentrated Jinyang sled squad, they were not the main attackers, they only needed to block back the Qi army that fled north, and let the front refuse and the Chinese army could hit hard.

Then, the two Yanri Xuanniao flags of the Zhao clan began to separate, and Wuxian bowed goodbye to Zhao Ying, smiled at Yang Hu and went to the left wing. The left flank was almost entirely light cavalry, followed only by sporadic spearmen, about six men and well armed. The rest of the cavalry were in teams of five, scattered to the perimeter to control the road and monitor the enemy's situation, and reported back and forth at any time.

In short, the big net composed of the main force of Zhao Bing will be spread out from the southwest, although because of the lack of troops, the mesh of this net seems to be a little large, which will allow the prey to escape a lot, but there are still measures to make up for it.

In the northwest, on the distant horizon, Zhen Yi and Xiaqiu Yi, who were stationed in Qinyi, were led by the soldiers of Yangyurong, and were riding to the designated location under the guidance. And in the northeast, more than ten miles away, after getting the news, the hunters of Onozawa wearing thick leather clothes have also been in place, don't expect too many of them, the thieves are cunning and suspicious, and they will only come out to pick up the bargain after the complete collapse of the Qi army.

"Boom!"

The drums sounded. It was Zhao Ying's personal beating at the Chinese army, which was the signal for the attack. Today, father and son will play side by side for the first time.

"Knock knock!" The soldiers who refused before responded. The tambourine beats and begins to walk forward.

Zhao Wuxian also waved a small flag here, and the riders climbed onto the war horses that had rested all night, in order to relieve the tension, they mocked each other, and several of them were obviously shaking their hands, that was excited, there were 30,000 troops in front of them, this was a big battle that the soldiers had never experienced.

But it's not time yet. According to Zhao Ying's deployment and his own advice, the cavalry was not yet ready to enter the war.

He looked, he waited, waited for the fighter, his eyes did not blink, waiting for the target that belonged to him to appear.

……

The two armies were not far apart, and in an instant, the Qi people had appeared in front of them, emerging from the top of the hills and fields.

When Zhao Bing's front refused more than a thousand people, they began to accelerate forward in pursuit. The Qi people, who were only concerned about rushing forward, also discovered them.

The Qi people were not weak enough to be like sheep chased by wolves, and their first reaction was to turn around and resist, because it was mainly Gao's soldiers who were placed behind the rear army to suppress the broken formation. The elite of the Qi people.

The Gao family has been a great family for three hundred years, and there are countless retainers and scholars under him, and even Kong Qiu once took refuge in them. These years of Gao's revival. The strength is naturally not weak, and the number of soldiers is second only to the Qi State Office and the Guo Clan.

This is also the reason why Zhao Wuxian is unwilling to let the military pawn refuse. The sharpest knife, he was very reluctant to wear here. It is not in his own interest to fight to the death of the Qi people. But Zhao Ying thinks that the blade should not be used in this kind of battle? If this battle is won, the prestige of the Zhao clan will be enhanced like never before, and the Jin State will also have a chance to redeem its hegemony.

The selfish interests of the Wuxian forces and the interests of the entire Zhao army, at least at this time, are destined to be unable to be completely unified.

At this moment, he looked at the battle line worriedly from the hillock, worried that the losses of the soldiers were too heavy. Fortunately, the Qi people not only did not have cavalry, but because it was not easy to walk in the snow, the horses were slaughtered in large numbers, so the original terrible chariot formation of thousands of vehicles basically collapsed. A few days ago, I was desperate and organized a hundred people to rush out, but because there was no foot coordination, and the wheels were stuck in the snow, I was beaten by the cavalry and the sled car, and I didn't dare to try again.

In addition, a large number of foot soldiers in the Qi army were tired and hungry, and their combat effectiveness was low, except for the archers, but the continuous bad weather destroyed the strings of most of the bows and arrows, which greatly affected their range and power......

Therefore, the warriors rushed all the way to the Qi people, and the resistance they received was only a few weak and chaotic rain of arrows.

They were able to fire several salves of incredible crossbows.

Directly ahead, a group of enemy spearmen formed a half-moon formation, like a bronze hedgehog with thorns on both sides, hiding behind a wooden shield.

"Kill!"

As the spear formations of the warriors collided with them, the nuances of equipment and training began to be revealed.

Although Gao's soldiers are not bad, but with the hard training of the soldiers, with the tacit understanding can not be compared, they only three percent of the foot soldiers pierced the armor, unable to prevent the spear assassination, in the face of a large row of spears, they were pierced out by the impact of the spear tip, died on the spot, and Wu Xian saw more than a dozen people fall to the ground. In addition, the weapons are also seriously worn, after all, they have experienced hard battles in Yiyi, and they can't pierce the armor of the soldiers, and the battle line is constantly pressing behind the Qi people.

The sword and shield men led by Mucha took the opportunity to form a wedge-shaped formation, looking for a flaw under the protection of the crossbowmen's fire, rushing in, raising their short swords high and launching a crazy attack.

Surprising people, Yang Hu did not retreat after guiding the Qi people to deploy a relatively sparse location, but jumped out of the car to join the crossbowmen's line, and also shot arrows at the Qi people, and from time to time he rushed forward, and then retreated after killing a Qi people, and after several times in a row, the people around him couldn't help but applaud him, and even Zhao Ying, who was watching the battle, was also bowed.

Wuxian saw it clearly: "The Qi people are starting to mess up, and the elite of the Gao clan are still resisting, but the light heroes hiding behind them have panicked and began to speed away, instead of coming to help." ”

More than 10,000 people were hidden behind Gao's soldiers, or a large number of undisciplined Linzi light warriors and rangers, or croppers armed with scythes and rusty swords left behind by their grandparents. Among them, there are even some sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys who have been found on the corner of Linzi Street and have not completed their training...... Zhao Wuxian, who is the same age as them, has already experienced several battles.

Wuxian saw the Qi people running around in confusion, some joining the war group, and some fleeing far away. A loose horse pulls a cart and ramps through the queue. When the Qi people's own war drums sounded, they subconsciously hurriedly formed a phalanx, but they acted too late, the organization was chaotic, and the movements were slow.

Therefore, as long as the martial arts break through the elite of the Gao clan of more than 3,000 people in front of him, it will be like peeling off the thorns on the outside of the hedgehog, and you can eat the soft meat inside.

But the next moment, the situation changed, and Zhao Wuxian could see a Qi State official standing high on the chariot in the center of the battle group. The bronze armor that reflected the sunlight, the red and black armor and cloak made it very conspicuous, and he raised his long sword, and the people gathered together to help.

"That's supposed to be Gao Zhang."

The battle situation is scorching, the soldiers are bleeding, and Zhao Wuxian's heart is also bleeding, and he is thankful that he can give him half of the remaining people after this battle. Although the Qi people were hungry and tired, with the encouragement of the commander, their morale did not completely collapse, and after the soldiers captured most of the depths, they finally could not advance any further.

Just as the Qi people were about to muster up the courage to turn around and engulf the soldiers, the huge Yansun Xuanniao Banner on Zhao Ying's side waved, and the three thousand Zhao soldiers moved, following the smooth road opened up by the soldiers, rushing all the way to kill them.

So in the south, southeast, and southwest directions, groups of Gao soldiers were still resisting stubbornly, but they were trampled straight by the attackers, and they changed from a complete front to fighting separately. The Qi people had the advantage in numbers, there were nearly 10,000 people, but the attackers were full of strength, and it was not difficult to clean them up.

The riders were enthusiastic and came forward to ask for battle, but Wuxian said, "Wait, it's not time yet." “

He saw the Chinese army, the small flag on the left side of Zhao Ying's continued wave, urging Zhao Guangde's left flank to move, and when the soldiers of Wen County collided with Zhao's Chinese army and the rear army of Qi, they took the soldiers and sleigh carts to bypass the left flank, cut off the retreat of some people, and blocked them back.

The riders scratched their ears and cheeks in a hurry.

By this time, the Qi people had been completely chaotic, and the elite soldiers after the Gao clan were also defeated, because the west side was blocked, and they could only move to the northeast. This exacerbated the panic of the weak-willed militia and light warriors in the central government, and chaos began to appear, and the Qi people were like a stupid man who was in a hurry, tearing apart the defenses he had deployed, giving Zhao Wuxian a glimpse of the long-awaited opportunity!

The pointed top, the car reflecting the golden sun, and the eight galloping horses are all revealed in the eyes!

Zhao Ying probably also saw that the drums of the Chinese military department were bursting, and the trumpeter responded without shirts. "Ahh This voice is too familiar to them, there will be it day and night a few days ago, sometimes true, sometimes false, in short, it has already made the Qi people who were frightened to see the rider shudder from their bodies to their hearts.

As Zhao Wuxian set off, the fog in the air was gradually evaporating by the rising sun, and he kicked the horse's belly and shouted a command, and the voices of hundreds of people immediately responded, joining the noisy chorus.

"Qi Hou Big Tent!" As they rode their horses and ran, Zhao Wuxian shouted to his subordinates, "After the soldiers and the Chinese army completely tear apart the rear army of the Qi people, we will go straight to the golden eight-horse carriage of the Qi Hou!" "There are those who capture the Marquis of Qi, no matter what their origins are, they will give one to a thousand rooms!" (To be continued......)
