Chapter 270: Drumming and cheering

Looking at the Xianbei people who were charging again, Wei Shuo's face became solemn, he knew that the real test of the Liaodong Army was coming!

In order to break down the Jin army's formation as soon as possible, Murong Diao invested nearly 20,000 Xianbei cavalry and launched a decisive charge regardless of casualties.

In the face of the Xianbei people rushing up from the sky, the Jin army's crossbow array was not in a hurry and still shot at the Xianbei people in an orderly manner.

In the blink of an eye, the kung fu crossbow arrows flew into the rushing Xianbei cavalry, and the unlucky Xianbei cavalry were killed by arrows in batches. Some were pierced by crossbow arrows and flew upside down, some rolled off their horses and were trampled into flesh by war horses, and some were nailed to the ground by crossbow arrows and horses.

Under the blockage of crossbow arrows, the Xianbei cavalry died in pieces, and they had to pay an astonishing price for every step forward, but the Yuwen soldiers who had no way out could only attack tenaciously and die one after another under the dense crossbow arrows of the Jin army.

"Da Danyu, the Jin army's crossbow array is too powerful, Yuwen pulled them out and suffered heavy casualties, why don't you withdraw first and rest for a while?"

Murong Yun was stunned by the power of the Jin army's crossbow array, and he couldn't help but propose to his brother Murong Diao to withdraw the army.

Unexpectedly, Murong Diao roared at him, "What do you know?!" Withdraw and suffer more casualties! Summons Yuwen Ba and let him continue to invest in troops! ”

Although the crossbow array was still doing its best to stop the enemy, its effect was limited, and in the end, it could only allow the Xianbei people to approach their own army formation step by step.

Seeing the hope of breaking through the blockade of the crossbow array, the charging Xianbei cavalry seemed to be encouraged, they shouted in their mouths, danced swords and guns in their right hands, kicked their horses vigorously in their calves, and rushed towards the Jin army with great momentum.

Seeing this, Zhang Tong, who was in charge of commanding the spear phalanx, raised his hand and shouted: "Beat the drums and form a formation!" The brothers have killed the enemy! ”

Yuwen Ba looked at the Jin army from afar, and his eyes lit up with excitement, just like a hungry wolf smelling blood, he shouted frantically and led the army to run wildly, and fifteen thousand iron horsemen swept like a hurricane under the command of the passionate horn.

When the two sides are eighty paces apart. The long arrows in the hands of the Xianbei people who were rushing roared out, and the arrows like dark clouds fell from the sky and landed in the Jin army array. Charging until thirty paces away from the Jin army, Xianbei stopped shooting. At the same time, the speed of the war horse galloping has also reached the limit.

30,000 spearmen formed a military formation, ready for battle, and in the face of the roaring Xianbei cavalry, they let out an angry roar: "Kill Hu!" ”

"Boom!" With a loud bang, the galloping war horse collided with the thick iron shield, and in an instant, the neighing of the war horse, the sound of weapons striking each other, and the sound of soldiers shouting and killing resounded throughout the Liaohe Plain.

"Steady! Hold it all for me! ”

In the spear array, officers of all ranks shouted, they were all experienced veterans, and they knew what it was like to face cavalry. The most important thing is to overcome the fear in the hearts of the soldiers. Most ordinary soldiers would feel fear from the bottom of their hearts when they encountered the cavalry charging at them, and then lost the courage to fight the cavalry.

The Liaodong soldiers, as they usually trained, collided with the surging tide of cavalry with a tight formation. Almost instantly, the Liaodong soldiers reflexively stabbed out the spears in their hands, and stabbed the Xianbei cavalry on the opposite side with an indomitable momentum.

At the same time, the Xianbei cavalry waved the weapons in their hands, trying to tear apart the spear array of the Jin army, and the bloody battle finally began. With a calm step, the Jin soldiers kept stabbing the spears in their hands as they did in their daily training. Then retract and stab out, repeating the same motion mechanically.

The spear array in front of him steadily blocked the attack of the Xianbei people, this scene was extremely shocking to both the enemy and us, and even Murong Diao showed an expression of disbelief, although the cavalry in charge of the charge was not the elite of the tribe, but the power of the Jin army's spear formation was still beyond his expectations.

Only Wei Shuo was not surprised by this. When he chose spears as infantry weapons when he was in Laoshan, he thought that there would be today's scene, and it was his plan to deal with the Hu cavalry based on the infantry spear array, and now it was finally time to reap the results.

After losing the speed advantage. The power of the cavalry will be greatly reduced, and it may even be slaughtered by the infantry, just as the Xianbei people who rushed all the way to the front of the Jin army suddenly found themselves vulnerable. Their horses were punctured into honeycombs by spears piercing from all directions, and even they themselves were killed by more spears, ring-headed knives, and arrows flying in all directions.

The bright red blood mist on the battlefield filled the air, and the Xianbei people rushed into the spear array one after another, regardless of the casualties, trying to kill a bloody way with human lives, but in the blink of an eye, they were stabbed by spears and turned into a lifeless corpse.

"I don't believe that the great Xianbei warriors can't beat the cowardly Han people!"

Murong Diao's face was distorted, and there was a madness in his voice when he spoke, watching one after another Xianbei warriors being killed by the Jin army, his heart seemed to be dripping blood. It's a pity that Murong Diao, who has no way to retreat, can only send more cavalry up, and he is bent on breaking through the Jin army's defense line.

The battlefield is gradually showing a stalemate, and the casualties of both sides are increasing sharply. The roar of the Hu people resounded in the sky, and there were more and more corpses of the Xianbei people in front of the battle. As the Xianbei people began to fight hard, the casualties of the Jin army began to increase, and there were dangerous situations in many places.

Seeing this scene, Murong Diao couldn't bear it anymore and finally made up his mind to fight a decisive battle with the Jin army, and he threw all the remaining troops into the battlefield at one time, intending to destroy all the Jin troops in one fell swoop.

Murong Diao kicked the horse's belly and galloped along the formation, and his own soldiers followed closely with the battle flag held high.

Murong Yun, Murong Han, Murong Ren and others saw Da Dan Yu patrolling the formation one by one, bowing on horseback.

"Today's battle will lay the foundation of my Murong Xianbei for all generations, you must go all out to kill the enemy!"

Murong Han and Murong Ren raised their spears and responded: "Kill the enemy!" ”

Forty thousand Murong Yan cavalry echoed at the same time: "Kill the enemy!" ”

"The warriors of the Murong tribe picked up the swords in their hands, rode your war horses, stepped on the corpses of the enemy, and followed me to advance bravely, and follow me to establish a meritorious ...... for eternity."

Forty thousand iron horsemen roared: "Kill ...... Kill ......"

Murong Diao took the lead and raised his knife and pointed forward: "Kill the enemy!" ”

The 40,000 iron horsemen began to start running, and in the deafening whistling, they opened their bloody mouths and viciously pounced on the opposite Jin army. The iron cavalry of the Xianbei people is getting faster and faster, and the 40,000 army is like a rushing river pouring over the mountains and seas, and in the face of the large array of the Jin army that has long been broken, the Xianbei iron cavalry did not hesitate to bump into it.

A Xianbei soldier struggled to squeeze through a gap and tried to fight into the formation, but was knocked to the ground by the oncoming Divine Arm crossbow, and the Xianbei people who followed desperately tried to widen the gap.

"Charge! Rushing into battle" Murong Diao galloped and raised his sword and shouted: "Kill all the Jin people, and leave no one behind!" ”

The Jin army's 30,000-strong phalanx was attacked by the Xianbei people at the same time, and the Xianbei people were completely desperate to fight, they seemed to have made up their minds, that is, to finish all the tens of thousands of people in front, and to break through the Jin army's formation.

Wei Shuo originally planned to use the military formation to hold for two days to buy time for the Jin army in western Liaoxi to go north, but now it seems that he is afraid that if he can't wait for the arrival of the Western Route Army, the Jin army's formation may be broken, and Wei Shuo walked anxiously around the wooden platform with his hands behind his back and had no choice.

Xianbei people are as seamless as the tide to advance step by step, the front one falls down, and the back one makes up for it. They stepped on the bloody corpses of their companions and fought bravely, and the Xianbei people who followed behind even jumped off their horses to fight the Jin army.

"I want to personally beat the drum and cheer for the soldiers of Liaodong!"

Seeing that the battle ahead was tense, Wei Shuo could no longer sit on the high platform, he suddenly got up and walked down the high platform, and went straight to the huge war drum below.

"There is a lord himself beating drums and cheering! Our army will win! ”

"Kill!" At the same time as the drums sounded, every Liaodong soldier who personally witnessed the scene of Wei Shuo beating the drums burst out at the same time with a shout that had been suppressed in his chest for a long time, as if he had added a little strength, and the military formation, which was still in danger, gradually recovered its decline.

Seeing this scene, Murong Diao was so angry that he almost vomited blood and died, he tried his best to see a glimmer of hope, but he didn't think about it, but he was knocked away by Wei Shuo's drumming. (To be continued.) )
