Chapter 61: Undercurrent (7)

The speed of Chang Sheng's army crossing the river was not very fast, and when it was about to cross to the shore, the Liao people's light cavalry could not hold back, and they jumped their horses into the river, and for a while, the river surface five or six meters wide was a little crowded.

Yue Fei's department had already pressed to a distance of fifty steps, and Luo Yanqing waved his hand lightly, "Go with a certain person!" ”

The light cavalry behind him was already ready to go, and rushed up from the flank, and when he passed Yue Fei's array, Luo Yanqing shouted loudly: "Pengju, you are here to sweep the formation for us, and I will take the brothers to fight for a while!" ”

The hundred horsemen rolled up bursts of smoke and dust, Yue Fei firmly took the soldiers to his heels, and saw Luo Yanqing bypassing them and running straight to the riverbank.

The soldiers of the Changsheng army were about to touch the shore, and the Liao people had just gone down the river and rode unhurriedly on a tall horse.

These are the remaining elites in the Khitan leather room army, Luo Yanqing has fought with the Liao, naturally knows their combat strength, at this time, both sides are no longer talking, Luo Yanqing's department is even more scattered in the queue, almost all the Liao people want to climb on the shore, those who have enough strength to take out the horse bow, the feather arrows are wound, and the strength is not enough to take out the divine arm bow. (To emphasize, the Divine Arm Bow is not a bow, but a crossbow)

The Liao people who were wading in the water didn't say much, just took out the horn bow, raised their heads and threw out a round of arrow rain, the sound of feather arrows breaking through the air swished, and for a while the water of the Jinsha River was a little chaotic, and the splashing splash kept ringing.

After the soldiers with horses put a round of arrows, they shrank tightly behind the horse's neck, and after the momentum passed, they got up again, pulled the bowstring into a full moon, and then another splash of arrows was scattered, and the neighing and screaming in the Jinsha River continued to sound, after all, the river was crowded, and naturally the Liao army was in a weak position.

But in front of the Liao army, whether it was Han or Khitan, they were extremely brave, just picked aside the corpses of the fallen soldiers with the tip of their guns, and continued to move forward, and the Jinsha River was instantly stained red with blood.

The people in the river are clustered and squeezed forward, at this time both sides put away their bows and crossbows, and showed their respective blades, the Changsheng sergeants are holding shields and single knives in their hands, while the weapons of the Khitan Liao army are more messy, most of them are holding simple short knives, and some of them are holding blunt weapons such as iron hammers and copper hammers.

Looking at Luo Yanqing's side, it is basically a standard spear, and there are horse lances transferred from the Baiqi soldiers, and on the defensive side, the Song army just went down, and the Changsheng army, as the pioneer of the Liao people, just resisted it with a shield and jumped up.

Although the strength of the white soldiers is old, and the picks are also fast and ruthless, and the first group of soldiers who pounced on the Changsheng army were most of the dead and wounded, but still no one took a step back, just squeezed up with red eyes, and some of the brave and heroic people just stood up and received a shot from the Song army, and then clamped their weapons to the death, and dragged them down, and those who reacted in time immediately let go, and those who moved slowly were immediately pulled off their horses, and were divided by the swarming Changsheng sergeants.

It's just a short moment, and the two sides have reached the point of short-handed combat, which is the case in the era of cold weapons, and a battle is just a white-hot exchange of lives.

Lin Leopard has already lost contact with Pao Ze when he fights, every time he stabs a horse, it is the result of a life, the courage of the battle, the end is a living tiger and leopard, Lin Leopard killed in front of him, in the end, there is no Chang Sheng's sergeant who dares to find him to pounce on the shore, Lin Leopard finally got a vacancy, looked up, half of his cavalry died by the river in the blink of an eye, and Chang Sheng's army was even more tragic, at least hundreds of corpses were thrown down, and the bloody atmosphere quickly spread in the field, Straight healing is disgusting.

In addition to the death in the river before, the three hundred people who dared to die in response to Xiao Lie's support this time by the Chang Shengjun were less than half, even if the damage was so heavy, no one in the Chang Shengjun army took a step behind, at the beginning of the formation of the resentment army, it was to resist the Jurchens, and in the face of the Jurchen iron cavalry's charge, only the resentful army could stabilize the resistance, so the Changsheng army was never afraid of death, and it was also an outlier in this era.

And Xiao Lie, who had already crossed the river halfway through, also began to hesitate a little at this time, and even had a trace of remorse for his decision, how could the Song people who were straight thieves send such elites......

The fierceness of the casualties has made him a little unbearable, fortunately, the heaviest loss is the Changsheng army, not the Linya guards under his command, if we continue to fight like this, whether we can reach the Baigou River smoothly has become a question mark, but it has reached this point, even if it is to lose more lives, fill in for me to cross the river.

Lin Leopard was about to turn around to rescue Ying Paoze, and at this time, Yue Fei shouted, "Yanqing, take the brothers to withdraw first, the casualties are too serious, the Liao people are desperate, go down to rest first, let us meet again for a while, this war, you can't let you fight round." ”

Luo Yanqing was also stabbed in the lower abdomen at this moment, covering the blood with one hand, and when he raised his eyes, the Liao army's crossing of the river was already unstoppable, if he continued to fight like this, even if his own department was all defeated, he would not be able to expand, so he roared angrily, "Withdraw for me, withdraw to the side, don't rush Pengju's military formation!" ”

Cheered like this, even if Lin Leopard hated itchy, but the military order was like a mountain, he turned the horse's head at the moment, took advantage of the situation to run back, and the Chang Shengjun did not chase endlessly, just let the Song army in front of him withdraw with a false shot, and the top priority was to firmly gain a foothold on the south bank of the Jinsha River, so that the Khitans behind could come ashore, and they could take advantage of the situation to take a breath.

Lin Leopard and the other cavalry returned to the side of Yue Fei's array, and of the more than 100 people who came this time, the rest was less than fifty, no, what about Lao Geng? Lin Leopard just went crazy, searched among the crowd, and in the end he didn't find any trace of Geng Ye, and came to Luo Yanqing and knelt down in front of Luo Yanqing, his voice was a little choked, "Luo Yuhou, let me go back and rush for a while, Lao Geng hasn't come back yet!" ”

The wound on Luo Yanqing's lower abdomen finally stopped the bleeding under a simple bandage, and at this time he just dismounted, and his eyes were full of sadness, and his hands were a little trembling to help Lin Leopard, "The dead are dead, how can we be a brother of Lao Geng?" They are still watching us, watching how we avenge them, how we reclaim the cloudy land they have been longing for all their lives......"
