Lu Guangda lightly stretched his ape arm, and the big knife suddenly picked Tian Rui's falling head, he raised the big knife and galloped back and forth in front of the army, so that everyone could see Tian Rui's head clearly, whether it was Lu Guangda's troops or Tian Rui's rout, they were silent at this time.

After Lu Guangda galloped around, he ran back to the big flag, and shouted: "Tian Rui escaped without authorization, he has been killed by this general, today is the battle of life and death of my Da Chen, those who enter are glorious and rich, and those who retreat without hearing the sound of gold should be the same!" As he spoke, he threw Tian Rui's head heavily on the ground in front of a few soldiers under Tian Rui's department, causing those people to hurriedly take a few steps back.

After Lu Guangda killed Tian Rui, he shouted in a deep voice: "Where is Liu Xiuzhi, the deputy general of Tian Rui's department? ”

A general in his thirties with a slightly yellow face rushed over and gave a military salute to Lu Guangda, not even daring to raise his head: "The last general, Liu Xiuzhi, is here to listen to General Lu's orders." ”

Lu Guangda glanced at Liu Xiuzhi and said: "Just now I saw that you were still trying to stop the rout, and you were stronger than Tian Rui, so now you are exempted from the death penalty, and you now take over Tian Rui's position, command Tian Rui's subordinates, and return to fight again." ”

When Liu Xiuyi heard this, he raised his head, arched his hands pitifully, and almost cried: "General Lu, if you want to take the life of the last general, kill it directly here, the brothers are all frightened by the northern army, and even the armor and weapons have been thrown away, you let us go back to fight at this time, isn't this sending sheep into the tiger's mouth?" ”

Lu Guangda sneered: "The military order is like a mountain, you can't bargain, if I lose this battle, I, Lu Guangda and all the soldiers, will also be at the disposal of the rear army, there will be no complaints, you just fought the enemy army has not had time to pick up, now go back, put on armor, take weapons, avenge your comrades, I will send troops to respond." ”

Liu Xiuzhi wanted to speak again, but as soon as he bumped into Lu Guangda's cold and majestic face, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word, gritted his teeth, and turned around to leave.

Lu Guangda suddenly said, "Wait, General Liu. ”

Liu Xiu's neck was cold, and he turned his head and saluted: "What else is the matter with the general?" ”

Lu Guangda suddenly smiled slightly: "Where is your war horse?" ”

Liu Xiuzhi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just now, when the last general was stopping the rout, he was knocked off his horse, and the horse didn't know where it went. ”

Lu Guangda turned his head to the herald beside him and shouted, "Go, bring a good horse to General Liu." ”

Lu Guangda looked at Liu Xiuzhi, who was grateful, and suddenly became amiable: "Xiuzhi, you have also served under the old man's account, you are still the master of the same year, and you have accumulated meritorious service when you followed me on the Northern Expedition, and your husband's achievements are today."

The number of enemy troops is not large, the old man will not let you go to death, you fight while clearing the big cars that are in front of the enemy army, but if I don't pay the gold, you will die to the last person, and you are not allowed to retreat, understand? ”

Liu Xiuzhi gritted his teeth, saluted and said: "General Lu, don't break the enemy army, Xiuzhi will come to see you!"

After he said this, he rode on a yellow horse that Lu Guangda's subordinates had just brought over, took a horse lance, raised it high, and shouted at the defeated soldiers of Tian Ruibu: "Retreat is death, there is still a glimmer of life forward, it is a man's, kill me back, and survive in death!"

The few guards who followed him raised a flag of General Liu as the commander of the Chinese army.

As if to give Liu Xiuzhi's words a boost, as soon as his words fell, hundreds of war drums in Lu Guangda's army formation beat at the same time, which shook the blood of Nan Chen's soldiers.

Those defeated soldiers were infected by this situation, and they all turned back and ran back, put back on their respective armor, and re-raised their spears in formation, Tian Rui's lance men were mostly garrison troops in the capital, although they had not fought, but their usual training was good, and it was less than half an hour, and the seven or eight thousand troops re-lined up their guns, with shield soldiers in front and spearmen behind, under the command of Liu Xiuzhi, they took firm steps and marched forward.

Lu Guangda's troops also began to move slowly, there were no war drums, no shouts of officers, but everyone's footsteps were in unison, and 30,000 pairs of feet were almost the same size, advancing firmly and forcefully.

On the high post of Jiang Shan, He Ruobi and Wang Huaqiang watched the entire transfer process of Chen Jun without saying a word, Wang Huaqiang's heart fluctuated, his expression became stern, and his hands were tightly clenched into fists.

He Ruobi looked at the Yuan Ming, who was a little restless at the bottom of the mountain, and sat on horseback and patrolled back and forth, and sighed: "It seems that this battle is going to fail." Although Yuan Ming was ordered by my general just now and did not attack, but now his heart is in turmoil, and he may be a little blaming me for not letting him chase and kill the enemy just now, and take away the weapons and armor staff that the enemy discarded. ”

Wang Huaqiang smiled: "If the last general is in the position of general, he may not be able to help but go out and snatch it, after all, they are all good things."

But the last general stands in your position, and he can see far away, if he really orders the soldiers to seize these, there will definitely be chaos, if Lu Guangda sees this situation, he will definitely attack directly, so your order just now is really timely. ”

He Ruobi sighed: "But Yuan Ming can't see this, although he has been with me for many years, he will only charge into battle, and he will not grow at all, I have known that the enemy army is so difficult, I should have left the veteran Su Xiaoci." ”

Wang Huaqiang smiled slightly: "General He, in that case, why don't you recall General Ren now and replace it with a calm general to command?" ”

He Ruobi waved his hand: "It is a taboo for soldiers to change generals in battle, and besides, Yuan Ming won a while ago, and there is no reason to change him at this time, even if he is replaced by a deputy general, it will shake the heart of the army, Wang joins the army, please take my five hundred guards, take some wolf smoke and firewood, as a fire-starter, and ambush at the bottom of the mountain, in case the front is defeated, it is also good to cover the retreat of the soldiers of the front army." ”

Wang Huaqiang nodded, took a general order from He Ruobi's hand, and took the order, before going down the mountain, he glanced back at the back, there seemed to be a lot of smoke and dust moving in the distance dozens of miles away, and he secretly said in his heart: "Is it still too late?" ”

The sound of feather arrows breaking through the air was endless, and the archers of the Sui army did not have to worry about the enemy's bow and arrow attack this time, so they simply stood in front of the gun array, behind the cart, and continued to shoot into the sky.

But the Chen army on the opposite side, this time they were all wearing double leather armor, with a big shield in the front row, sticking out the tip of a forest-like spear upward, constantly shaking the spear phalanx with flying arrows.

The lethality of the Sui army's bows and arrows was much smaller than that of the axemen who had just shot those knife and axe men wielding broadswords and battle axes with both hands, and occasionally a few unlucky ghosts were hit by the arrows and fell to the ground and did not leave, and more people had arrow shafts stuck in their bodies, and continued to walk forward with red eyes.

Chen Jun's gun array came to a place less than fifty steps away from the cart, and Liu Xiuzhi suddenly roared: "Rush!" Almost at the same time, the archers of the Sui army all retreated from both sides and flashed behind the lancers.

The speed of Chen's gun formation began to accelerate, from steady to trotting, originally a square more than three miles wide, dozens of columns thick, steadily advancing, suddenly turned into more than a dozen independent small phalanxes, one after another poured in from the gap in the cart, rushed to the Sui army's long lance array, at the same time, the rear Lu Guangda Department hundreds of war drums sounded at the same time, shaking the heavens and the earth.

On both sides were lance soldiers, each holding a three- or four-meter-long lance, lined up in the most standard spear formation, while plucking the spear lance stabbed by the opponent, while looking for an opportunity to stab the opponent.

The spearmen in the second row lowered their spears, stretched out from the legs of their comrades in front, crouched down, and stabbed the legs and feet of the soldiers in front of them. Some soldiers armed with long halberds raised their weapons high and attacked the heads of the opposing soldiers from a distance, from top to bottom.

The tactics on both sides are almost the same, the most standard pikemen tactics, separated by a distance of three or four meters, the soldiers in the front row on both sides gritted their teeth and fought each other, the soldiers killed in the battle fell to the ground, and the soldiers in the back quickly made up for it and continued to fight.

Many soldiers who were stabbed in the legs and feet threw away the weapons in their hands, crawled on the ground and tried to get close to the enemy formation, and then drew their waist knives to sneak attack, often unable to climb half a meter, and would be stabbed to death by the opponent's spears on the ground.
