Wang Wei knew that as long as he could meet the five hundred soldiers he brought, these brave soldiers would definitely block the pursuit of Yuan's army for himself. He wasn't afraid of death, but he had to rush back and tell Shi Lian about the situation here. This Yuan army is numerous, they have fallen into the situation of being attacked on their backs, the situation is extremely urgent, and they must quickly release red signal flares.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to his soldiers, he suddenly heard the hooves of horses behind him, and a gust of wind pierced his back. In a panic, Wang Wei didn't have time to turn around, and slashed with his backhand, but he was empty. Immediately afterwards, Wang Wei felt a heart-piercing pain in his heart. As he looked down, a sharp spear protrude from his chest. Suddenly, the tip of the spear disappeared again, and a stream of blood gushed out.

Wang Wei's hand hung down weakly, and the big knife fell to the ground, making a "choking" sound, but it was soon drowned in the surrounding shouts of killing. Wang Wei's body shook on the horse, and slowly fell, just as he saw a general riding a horse past him, and there was a big character on the banner behind him, and then, he didn't know anything.

After Gao Ran gave the order to attack, he never made a move, until he saw that Wang Wei was almost about to break out of the encirclement, so he stepped forward and stabbed him to death with a shot. Seeing Gao Ran's bravery, the morale of the Yuan army was greatly boosted, but the soldiers of the Han army did not lose their fighting spirit because of Wang Wei's death, and still fought to the death. Gao Ran's brows furrowed, and he finally couldn't help but kill it.

With the addition of Gao Ran, the progress of the war was significantly accelerated, but 5,500 Han soldiers fought to the death until the last man. Gao Ran counted the results of the battle, his own strength was ten times that of the enemy, and the battle loss ratio actually reached four to one, which means that in this battle, the Yuan army lost a total of more than 20,000 people.

Gao Ran looked at the corpses everywhere and the trebuchet that burned to ashes, and suddenly understood that these Han soldiers had a chance to escape, but they gave up this opportunity just to prevent the trebuchet from falling into their hands. The formidable combat power of the Han army was certainly terrifying, but what made Gao Ran feel even more terrifying was their sacrificial spirit of sacrificing their lives in order to complete the mission.

Gao Ran's face became solemn, and he looked up to the south, where there were faint shouts of killing. Gao Ran put away his thoughts, pointed the spear in his hand to that side, and shouted in a deep voice: "Kill!" ”

That was the battlefield where Shi Lian blocked Yan Liang. Yan Liang is also a veteran of the battlefield, he saw the thick smoke billowing from the rear of the Han army, and Shi Yu, who had beaten his subordinates to the ground, also stopped, and knew that the rear of the Han army was attacked.

Yan Liang was sure that it was a reinforcement sent from the direction of Yecheng. His men and horses have been fighting here for so long, and they still haven't been able to break through the defense line of the Han army, if they wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Yecheng, this work will be snatched away, and most of his efforts for half a day will be in vain. Thinking of this, Yan Liang no longer hesitated, picked up his knife and got on the horse, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the opposite side.

Because of the trebuchet's attack, Yuan's attack was slightly paused just now, and Shi Jian took this opportunity to readjust his strength, and found that there were less than 10,000 soldiers around him who could continue to fight. At this time, Shi Jian saw that in Yuan's army, a man like an iron tower was brandishing a big knife and rushing over.

Shi Lian guessed that this person was the famous Yan Liang, and he couldn't help but feel his blood surge. Now the situation is here, they have fallen into the situation of being exposed to the enemy on their backs, and if the Han army that is preparing to send reinforcements cannot arrive in time, this position will be difficult to hold. Shi Jian had a bold idea, if he could kill Yan Liang, maybe he could scare Yuan Jun away.

Over the years, under the guidance of Xu Huang and others, Shi Lian's martial arts have advanced by leaps and bounds, and he is no longer comparable to the small soldiers of the Beijing army back then. In the first legion, in addition to Xu Huang and Pang De, his martial arts can sit firmly in the third.

Thinking of doing it, Shi Jian picked up his knife and got on his horse, and rushed out of the trench.

He is the supreme commander on the battlefield, and according to the military regulations of the Han Dynasty, he should not rush to the front. Although it was a last resort, Shi Jian dared to do this because the Han army had a strict system, even if he was no longer the commander, the other lieutenants could still take over the command smoothly and there would be no collapse.

Yan Liangyong crowned the three armies, and was the first general under Yuan Shao, and when he saw that a person actually rushed out of the Han army on the opposite side, he couldn't help but smile contemptuously, and dragged the big knife to meet him. With a loud sound of "dang", the two horses intersected, and the big knives in the hands of the two were separated with a touch. Yan Liangle turned his horse's head and raised the big knife high above his head.

"Good ......" On the other horse, Shi Lian's body shook slightly, and he turned around with difficulty, only having time to spit out two words, and the word "knife" was planted without saying it.

Yan Liang killed Shi Jian with a knife, and Yuan Jun shouted in unison and rushed forward together.

Suddenly, the Wuheng cavalry, which was originally in the rear of the Yuan army, was in chaos like a nest. Yan Liang was facing his rear at this time, and clearly saw the smoke and dust billowing behind him, and the earth began to tremble, I don't know how many soldiers and horses were killed.

Yan Liang gritted his teeth, turned around, pointed at the north with a big knife, and shouted: "The whole army attacked, rushed through here, and joined the soldiers and horses who came to help from Yecheng!" ”

I have to say that Yan Liang's decision is still very correct. His cavalry fought fiercely with the Han army for a long time, and the casualties were also very heavy, but he knew that the situation of the Han army was not much better, and he had just beheaded the general of the Han army, and the Han army would definitely be demoralized, and even chaos without a fight. At this time, he waved his army to rush over, just in time to break through the defense line of the Han army, and after meeting with the reinforcements from the direction of Yecheng, he would rely on the defense line built by the Han army to resist the army coming from behind.

However, Yan Liang miscalculated, although the remnants of the Han army in front of him did not have a main general, their fighting spirit was still strong, and in the face of the Yuan cavalry who rushed over frantically, the shooting of the bow and crossbow became more violent.

In fact, when the Han army rushed out, they were already ready to meet the enemy. They were surrounded by swords, spears, and shields from their dead comrades, as well as sharp "engineering shovels", all of which had been drawn out, and when they were finished, they abandoned their bows and crossbows and engaged the enemy in a final hand-to-hand fight.

Among the Han army, the relationship between officers and soldiers was the most harmonious. Although in peacetime training, officers at all levels have very strict requirements for soldiers, in peacetime they are like brothers, and everyone eats and lives together, which is like a family. Therefore, instead of making them flinch, Shi Lian's death aroused the raging anger in their hearts.

Yan Liang danced a big knife like a windmill, and all the arrows that came over were thrown into the dust by him. But the other soldiers behind him were not so lucky, and people kept falling off their horses, and the howls were heard one after another.

Before Yan Liang could reach the trench, hundreds of Han soldiers rushed out of the trench, screaming and rushing towards Yan Liang. Yan Liang didn't pay attention to these soldiers at all, and still casually dragged the big knife and rushed over, but he soon realized that he had made a mistake in judgment again.

These Han soldiers may not be worth mentioning in Yan Liang's eyes if they talk about personal martial arts, but they usually eat together, sleep together, train together, and are familiar with each other as if they are one person. A glance and a shout between their companions revealed a meaning that only they understood.

Yan Liang's martial arts had nothing to say, a knife danced through the wind and rain, protecting people and horses, and did not forget to take advantage of the gap to fight back, and in a blink of an eye, more than a dozen Han soldiers died under his knife. However, the spears, swords and even arrows of the Han soldiers would always attack from different directions, which made him feel a little difficult.

Without paying attention, Yan Liang's knife slowed down, and the war horse was slashed by the overlord knife handed over by the Han army. Although it was only a small opening, the war horse was in pain, and suddenly the man stood up and let out a long neigh.

Yan Liang is skilled in martial arts and superb riding skills, he is not chaotic at all, gently pull the reins, clamp his legs hard, the war horse soared into the air, jumped over the heads of the Han soldiers, and landed dozens of steps away, the horse's head was facing south, and it had jumped out of the encirclement of the Han army.

Seeing this, a lieutenant in the Han army had a plan and shouted: "Yan Liang is defeated!" Yan Liang was injured and fled! ”

The other Han soldiers also shouted in unison, and the sound shook the sky. The crossbowmen of the Han army also cooperated in time, and the random arrows shot straight at Yan Liang. This chaotic arrow shot right behind Yan Liang. Yan Liang didn't have time to turn around, so he had to urge the horse forward while dancing the big knife wildly, hurrying and being very embarrassed.

The cavalry of the Yuan army was originally suppressed by the bows and arrows of the Han army, but now when they heard the news of Yan Liang's defeat, they couldn't help but be upset. Yan Liang is a god-like existence in their minds, and now that even Yan Liang has fled, how can they still have a heart to fight, they have turned their horses' heads and fled south.

At this time, the south was no longer safe, and even more dangerous, and the more than 50,000 Wuhuan cavalry left behind by Yan Liang were suffering a brutal massacre at this time.

This is not the first time that the Wuhuan cavalry has entered the Central Plains to fight, and they have been called by the imperial court many times in the past to enter the Central Plains to participate in the war of counterinsurgency. In their impression, the Han people are cowardly and like to use all kinds of intrigues, and if they do it with real swords, they are definitely not the opponent of their Wuhuan cavalry.

The battle of last night confirmed Badun's idea even more, the Han army was almost everywhere with traps, and except for those daredevils who wielded long knives and daredevils, everyone else was a hit-and-run character.

However, they now encountered the character of a real sword, a cavalry of 20,000 men, all dressed in solid armor. The armor was made of the finest iron from the research institute, and the fine scales were polished to a radiant light, and the scales were lined with five layers of silk. It would take even the most skilled craftsman a whole month to create such a set of armor that could protect a man or a horse. 20,000 sets of armor cost Liu Xin how much manpower and financial resources can be imagined. This is the most elite cavalry equipped by the First and Second Legions of the Han Dynasty - the ironclad cavalry!
