Coupled with the skillful combat skills practiced by the soldiers of the Sui army day and night, two or three people can often form a very good strategy and cooperation, and in less than half an hour, more than 2,000 corpses of barbarian soldiers fell around these sharp soldiers, and their own losses were only more than 30, and the offensive of the menacing barbarian soldiers just now was also stagnant.

When the time came, the sun was already hanging high in the sky, the sky was gradually brightening, and the morning fog characteristic of Ningzhou had dispersed cleanly at this time, and both sides could clearly see each other's formation and actions.

A vast number of barbarian soldiers spread all over the battlefield, more than 30,000 people, like a tide towards the Sui army's more than 500 jumping soldiers, and these 500 soldiers are dead in the position of the original Sui army's former army Shu soldiers, both wings are connected together carts, the flanks are very safe, all that is needed is to fight with the thousands of barbarian soldiers who rushed up head-on, up to 20,000 barbarian soldiers are crowded in the back, but they can't get to the front, they can only stare dryly.

Shi Wansui, who has been living on the high platform in the rear, saw it clearly, the more than 2,000 survivors of the front army had already retreated from the more than 20 steps left between the queues of the second formation's long lance soldiers, Yu Juzan and Sima Dekan had just gone into battle with the war elephants in person, and they were slightly injured, and they were as disgraced as Yang Wutong.

Shi Wansui frowned, and with a wave of his hand, the guards and auxiliaries in the large camp who had already been on standby behind the battle carried stretchers and rushed out of the gap in their own formations to carry the wounded and sick of the front army on the stretchers. Then quickly transported back to the camp. The more than 1,000 soldiers of the former army who could still walk on their own also cheered up. Bypassing the main formation, he withdrew to his camp behind him.

At the same time, under Shi Wansui's order, the lancemen of the second formation also began to move forward, and the archers of this formation quickly crossed the longlancers of the second formation, rushed into the chariot formation of the front army, and quickly poured arrows into the enemy reinforcements in front of the front line.

These Guanzhong troops are all elite soldiers from all over the country, and their combat ability is far stronger than that of ordinary government soldiers. The archers' rate of fire was much faster than that of ordinary soldiers, and in just two or three minutes, ten rounds of arrows were fired forward, covering the dense crowd of barbarian soldiers fiercely and fiercely.

Although these barbarian soldiers are fierce, they are flesh and blood after all, and the people are dense, under this continuous rain of arrows, they were swept down one by one, and two or three thousand people fell in an instant, and the barbarians who were fighting on the front line. Listening to the "whooshing" arrow rain, listening to the screams and the sound of servants in the rear. Even these barbarian soldiers who were fierce and barbaric began to beat drums in their hearts, plus those Sui soldiers on the opposite side were all like killing gods, and the corpses of their own army in front were also piled up everywhere, these barbarian warriors had never seen such a tragic killing poke before, and some of them had begun to retreat gradually.

Zhang Xutuo slashed the head of an enemy squad leader wearing a wolf bone mask in front of him and flew out of the body more than a dozen steps, and the man's life-fighting knife before death was also slashed on his chest armor, which shocked Zhang Xutuo with a burst of qi and blood, he flew up and kicked the corpse of the person who was still standing still on the ground to the ground, and the big axe in his left hand once again split Huashan, and directly disemboweled a brute who was preparing to sneak attack himself on the side, and the five barbarians on the opposite side were so frightened that their legs and stomachs trembled, and they ran backwards with a scream.

Zhang Xutuo spat a mouthful of bloody spit on the ground fiercely, just now he killed the forty-fifth and forty-sixth people today, except for the three-headed war elephants, and his body was also cut two or three times, fortunately he was lucky to protect his body, and this chain armor was really strong enough, so he didn't suffer any big damage, but the knife wound was still a little hot.

There are more than 3,000 barbarians in front of them, and there are more than 400 people around them in a half-moon shape, but not many people have the courage to continue to move forward, the rain of arrows from the archers in the rear just now is really powerful, and the support of the barbarians has left the more than 3,000 people in front of them with 200 steps, in order to avoid the terrible rain of arrows.

Zhang Xutuo shook the two big axes in his hands again, just now this fight, even if he didn't see the barbarian soldiers who had slaughtered the war elephant before, they were all afraid of the killing god in front of him, watching him put the two battle axes stained with blood and brains on his shoulders, and his whole body was stained red with blood.

Zhang Xutuoha smiled, the knife just now also made his chest hurt for a while, he didn't catch it for a long time, if it wasn't for the blood on his face, it would have been seen that his face was a little pale just now, but in front of the enemy, showing even a little painful expression will stimulate the enemy's killing intent, only by making an indifferent attitude can effectively deter the other party, just at this moment, he adjusted his breathing, and his arms regained strength, he picked up his arms, grabbed the big axe again, and took a step forward, Ready to continue a new round of fighting.

At this moment, there was a tight gong sound from behind, Zhang Xutuo realized that this was a signal to withdraw his troops, although he was bloodthirsty and good at fighting, but he was actually an extremely good commander, just now even in the battle, he had been observing the surrounding situation, and did not take a step out of the car formation, which also avoided to the greatest extent that his five hundred or so people were exposed to the flanks and besieged by the enemy because of the loss of the cover of the car formation.

He knows very well that he is still outnumbered by the enemy, although his counterattack has curbed the enemy's offensive, but hand-to-hand combat is still not the advantage of his own side, how can he safely withdraw the more than 400 brothers to the back row of his side, and let the long lance men go to the front row, this is what he should consider and do now as a main general.

Zhang Xutuo took a few steps forward, forcing the barbarians to retreat a few steps back again, he raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, but he quietly made a retreat gesture to the soldiers behind him, these veterans understood, and more than 100 soldiers in the last two rows began to quietly turn around and retreat.

After Zhang Xutuo roared, he suddenly became hideous, raised his big axe high, and was about to rush, while the barbarians who had been frightened on the opposite side were in a commotion, and dozens of people in the front turned their heads and wanted to run back, but no one dared to pounce again.

But at this moment, Zhang Xutuo yelled: "Withdraw!" The soldiers behind him turned around and ran in unison, and Zhang Xutuo threw the big axe in his left hand forward, and then hugged the father in his right hand, and also turned around and ran backwards as fast as he could.

At this time, the barbarian soldiers woke up like a dream, and several leading leaders shouted, and three thousand people rushed forward again, and the follow-up barbarians who were far away from the rear, seeing that the front began to move, also rushed forward again.

Zhang Xutuo suddenly stopped and yelled: "Lose!" Then he turned around one hundred and eighty degrees, and when he turned around, he threw the big axe in his right hand fiercely. The more than 200 soldiers in front of him also turned around in an instant, throwing the steel swords and battle axes and other weapons in their hands at the pursuers who were less than thirty paces away from him.

This burst of knives and axes were thrown indiscriminately, smashing hundreds of barbarian soldiers in front of them crying wolf, and dozens of clever guys saw a wave of weapons flying in front of them, and they were so frightened that they immediately fell to the ground, and the people who followed behind were not so lucky, and directly killed a lot of flying axes and knives, and then the corpses pressed to the people lying in front of them, and then tripped over the companions who couldn't stop their footsteps, and the scene was chaotic.

Taking advantage of this effort, Zhang Xutuo and the others passed through the two gaps left between the dense lancers, and ran to the rear of the pikemen, as the figure of Zhang Xutuo disappeared behind the formation, the gap a few steps wide was closed again, when the barbarian soldiers finally regrouped their team, but found that they were sandwiched more than a mile wide, and on both sides were a piece of flat ground with large carts, and in front of them, there were rows of long lances shining with cold light.
