As soon as the horn of the Sui army sounded, cavalry on both wings joined the battle group and began to change the pattern of the battle. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The sound of hooves rumbled, and the cavalry formation of the Sui army cut into the flank of the Wagang army, and the Wagang army suddenly encountered the impact of the cavalry, and the formation was slightly chaotic. Qin Shubao saw from a distant hill, changing the rhythm, giving the command, the Wagang army did not send cavalry, but only relied on the infantry, when retreating, retreating, and retreating three times, through the tenacity of the formation, the momentum and sharpness of the Sui cavalry had been reduced.

The Wagang army used shield bearers and archers to resist desperately and finally resisted the Sui cavalry and prevented them from rushing to the position, and in an instant, the Wagang army began to counterattack, and it seemed that the opponent was going to be trapped in the army.

On the ice, the war horses neighed, but they were somewhat powerless, the Sui army saw that the situation was not good, the drums sounded loudly, and the cavalry withdrew slightly, breaking away from the encirclement of the Wagang army. The Wagang army did not take advantage of the situation to pursue, Qin Shubao glanced at Li Mi's direction, and saw that there was still no movement in that place, and couldn't help frowning.

Xiao Buyi saw it from afar, and he was also frowning, this Qin Shubao ...... The command end is not weak. He had long heard that Zhang Xutuo used the Eight Winds Battalion to shock the world, but Qin Shubao didn't necessarily put out the Eight Winds Battalion, but the current battle was obviously very suitable for fierce battles and dealing with cavalry.

Of course, cavalry is not invincible and invincible, and any kind of army has advantages and disadvantages. The Sui army fought the world that year, and there was no response to any battle, and Zhang Xutuo's generation of famous generals gathered the battle in Dacheng, and flexibly combined the shieldmen, knife and axe hands, spearmen, archers, hook bearers and other types of troops in the infantry, and integrated attack and defense. Qin Shubao, as a general under Zhang Xutuo, has rich experience, and this method of coping, using the long to overcome the weak, and at the same time eliminating the advantage of the cavalry, is really deep in command.

This Uncle Qin really gave him a big headache! Xiao Buyi couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this.

I think that at the beginning, when he met Qin Shubao and Cheng Yanjin, he only felt that Qin Shubao understood things better, Cheng Yanjin was a troublemaker, but he didn't expect that after many years, it was Cheng Yanjin who was the first to surrender, but Qin Shubao became a great enemy of life and death with him. His eyes swept over the Wagang Army, Xiao Buyi just looked in the direction of Luokoucang, frowning a little. Now, he is more concerned about the battle situation in Luokoucang!

Xiao Buyi frowned, and so did Qin Shubao, but the two of them thought very differently.

Qin Shubao frowned because he couldn't figure out Li Mi's intentions, and he now felt that he was fighting alone. Li Wenxiang and Zhang Qian were no longer able to cope with this combat situation, and all the heavy commanding responsibilities were all on the shoulders of Qin Shubao alone.

Fighting in this bad weather, in fact, Qin Shubao is not the first time, I think that he and Zhang Xutuo fought in the south and the north, and the worse and more difficult situation was also experienced, but now it is different from the past, in the past, he had someone to help, and now he is isolated.

They had already missed a chance to win, and Qin Shubao ordered the cavalry of the inner army to attack, but the inner army did not move at all. There was some unhappiness in his heart, but Qin Shubao was even more puzzled. The Sui cavalry retreated a little chaotically, and if Li Mi let the cavalry shoot out, he might be able to seize the lead. Even if it can't defeat the Sui army, if you can kill most of the invading cavalry, it can also boost morale.

After all, there are still some differences between luring the enemy and routing in terms of banners and formations, and the commanding generals can of course seize the opportunity to win on the battlefield according to the small differences, but Qin Shubao tried his best but did not react, and his anger in his heart naturally went without saying.

Many people in Wagang didn't know anything, but they were just glad to resist a wave of impact from the Sui army, but how long they could hold out was uncertain in their hearts.

**

On the Luoshui River, almost every inch of land is gold, and both the Sui army and the Wagang army are unwilling to give up the land under their feet. Retreat is losing, everyone already understands.

The ice on the surface of the river is very thick, and it can even be said that it can almost freeze to the bottom of the river, which can prevent the trampling of the armies on both sides. It's just that the snow is gone, the ice chips are flying, the contradictions are flying, and the surface of the river is also 'creaking', as if it is making a trembling moan. The north wind howled endlessly, as if to boost the morale of the soldiers, or to blow away the blood on the battlefield, the head had moved westward, and the lonely scattered light, cold without half a bit of warmth, had seen too much of this cold-blooded slaughter, and was insensitive.

The Luo River is boiling and noisy, tragic and cold, all the people do not feel cold, on the contrary, there is already steaming heat on their bodies, mixed with the heart is stirring blood, just because the surroundings are all sacrificed to die and forget to die, stirring the blood and pride in the heart. On the battlefield, there are reciprocating conflicts, and they really can't think too much about it, and the flags, drums, horns, and commanders are all they have on the battlefield.

Charging, retreating, resisting, and luring the enemy are always their firmly implemented strategies.

They are not puppets, but they are like puppets, they will always carry out the orders of their commanders, and execution is a responsibility, but also responsible for their own lives and the lives of others. They are like puppets, but they are not puppets, because they still have a lot of blood, although many of them have exhausted their whole body strength, scarred, but there is no order to retreat, they only know that forward, kill the opponent, try to survive, is the only thought in their minds.

On the Luoshui River, the sun is shining, the ice has not melted, and it is covered with thick blood!

**

I don't know how long it took, Xiao Buyi finally sighed lightly, after such a long time of preparation, he didn't expect the war to be so hard, but he finally keenly found that the Wagang army was tired, and even, the Wagang army led by Li Wenxiang was already overwhelmed.

This is not Qin Shubao's command error, it is really because Qin Shubao is also a human, not a god!

The two armies are fighting, and command is of course also one of the factors, Qin Shubao has played to the fullest extent in this Luoshui battle, but the Wagang army under his command is still flawed after all.

It may not be obvious for a while, but after a long stalemate, the weakness has been infinitely magnified.

The momentum of the Sui army is like a rainbow, but the morale of the Wagang army has slowly weakened.

The reinforcements of the Sui army were still replenished from the direction of the Yan Division, but the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Wagang Army had no backup.

Yesterday, the Sui army kept using the strategy of harassment, taking turns to harass the Wagang army, coupled with the fierce battle that had been a day, the Wagang army was loud and tired.

The Sui army was slightly victorious, but it was prepared early, and the will was tenacious, coupled with Xiao Buyi's personal campaign to boost morale and kill Wang Bodang, all of which greatly increased confidence, knowing that after this battle, Henan can be determined, and everyone is the first.

When Xiao Buyi saw that the Wagang army was showing its defects, the sound of horns was heard in the Sui army's formation for the first time, and the sound of hooves rumbled, which was inspiring.

A team of cavalry has about 1,000 people, and it has been killed from the whirlwind of the Sui army's formation, this team of cavalry is like a dragon and a tiger, obviously accumulating strength for a long time, but it is the elite army in Xiao Buyi's hands, the ironclad cavalry!

As soon as the ironclad cavalry came out, there was a moment of silence on Luoshui, and it became extremely quiet under the atmosphere of Jilong, which was indescribable to ordinary people. The ironclad cavalry was like a whirlwind, almost unable to react from the moment they attacked to the time they joined the battle. Qin Shubao was shocked when he saw it, if compared to the speed of Fang Cai's iron cavalry, this team of cavalry was already the same as the flying dragon.

The impact of this iron horse is unimaginable.

Luoshui was shocked, and the already frozen snow flew again, only to see the black dragon soaring, ice chips splashing, the sun shining, crystal clear. The ironclad cavalry rushed in front of Li Wenxiang's department almost without hindrance.

The Wagang army was in a panic, and when it retreated, retreated, and retreated three times, it only heard a 'bang', and the right flank of the Wagang army was already collapsing.

The same iron horse, but it has created very different results. In the same battle, the Wagang army collapsed in front of the black-armored iron cavalry, and Qin Shubao's battle could no longer stop the momentum of the iron-armored cavalry!

The opportunity for the ironclad cavalry to attack was undoubtedly grasped by the commander just right.

The corners of Xiao Buyi's mouth finally showed a smile, and he muttered to himself: "Shiji, your kid really deserves his reputation!" He knew that even if he led the lead, his ability to seize opportunities would not necessarily be better than he was now.

The person in command of the formation is, of course, the general of Zhennan, Xu Shiji! In fact, from the beginning of the confrontation with Wagang, Xiao Buyi completely handed over the right to mobilize troops to Xu Shiji.

Xu Shiji lived up to Xiao Buyi's trust, and used his troops virtually and realistically, dragging Li Mi's army next to Luoshui, which allowed Xiao Buyi to go all out to quell the civil strife.

When Li Mi, Wang Shichong, and Yuan Wendu were plotting against Xiao Buyi in the eastern capital, Xiao Buyi, Li Jing, and Xu Shiji never had a time to be idle.

Although Li Jing was in Liyang, his eyes had already looked in a farther direction, and by choking Liyang, he could not only control the development of Wagang to the northeast, but also counter the forces of the vigilant Hebei and Shandong. Of course, Li Jing was not satisfied with this, and he sent Guo Xiaoke to take the Chang Ping position early to restrict Guanzhong from sending troops from Tongguan. His two moves seem to be a leisurely stroll, but they have already made the situation in the north clear, and they have set the tone for future battles. Xu Shiji was also busy, he and Du Ruhui assisted Xiao Yu in plotting Bashu, led Pei Xing to take the land south of the Yangtze River, and then after clearing the road from Xiangyang to the Eastern Capital, he had quietly rushed to the Eastern Capital.

Li Jing and Xu Shiji's battle lines in the north and south were opened, like two parallel lines, and those who dived west and attacked east were fighting a good country for Xiao Buyi.

Xiao Buyi, Li Jing, and Xu Shiji all put all their focus on Wagang, and they all knew that the cleaning of the periphery had been completed for the time being, and the rear had been stabilized after these rectifications, and they could not wait any longer, and this crucial battle was imperative.

The heavy snow and ice were frozen, but it brought vitality to the eastern capital, whether it was Guanzhong, Hebei, or Jiangdu, they would suspend the plan to send troops, and at this time, they should face the least resistance to clearing Wagang.

Li Jing and Xu Shiji are both leading talents, but they still seem to be unknown.

Even if Li Jing was rampant in the grassland, guarding the border, and after the surprise attack on Liyang, he still seemed to be unknown. He and Xiao Buyi are brothers, and he and Xiao Buyi look similar, but they are completely different. Xiao Buyi is like a head, dazzling and gorgeous, as soon as he appears, he will attract the attention of everyone, but Li Jing is like a bright moon in the sky, although it is shining all over the world, but few people notice it, Li Jing's low-key is often ignored, even Li Mi almost ignores him. In Li Mi's opinion, this Li Jing's sneak attack is acceptable, but it may not be possible to fight! Even if Li Jing captured Liyang in Wagang, even if Li Mi's troops were defeated and returned to Luo, even if the Eastern Capital built a nine-battalion chain, this still did not attract Li Mi's attention, which did not make him realize that he was not facing one enemy, but three enemies who were cautious and cautious, eating people and not spitting out bones.

Li Jing planned like this, what he wanted was Li Mi's contempt, what he wanted was this effect, the four words that the arrogant soldiers would be defeated, a famous saying through the ages, but how many people can really know? Li Jing fights, never seeking fame, just seeking victory!

Li Jing and Xu Shiji quietly assisted Xiao Buyi, but they built an unbreakable Great Wall of steel side by side with him, and gradually narrowed the area of attacking Wagang. They are trusted by Xiao Buyi, but they are indeed worthy of this trust, but at this time, Li Mi still feels that after defeating Xiao Buyi, everything else is negotiable! Xiao Buyi Huangkou child, what kind of ability do you have?!

Li Mi is talented, but talented people are usually proud, especially proud after achieving results, Li Mi killed himself step by step because of pride, when he fought against Xiao Buyi, he never had a correct mentality, and the same was true for Li Jing.

Those who are good at fighting, but have no outstanding military achievements, this kind of opponent is actually the most dangerous opponent.

When all the aura was already focused on Xiao Buyi's body, and when everyone's attention was on Xiao Buyi, Li Jing and Xu Shiji had already kept encroaching on Wagang's territory, and even in this crucial battle that determined the outcome of the battle, the two were still hidden behind the scenes.

This kind of invisible person has quietly controlled the outcome of the battle.

Xu Shiji, who was in command in the formation, obviously saw the opponent's fatigue, and he also knew that the Sui army was somewhat tired and could still persevere, but because of his faith and Xiao Buyi's encouragement, if he continued to survive, the outcome was unpredictable, so he ordered the ironclad cavalry to attack, and he wanted to finish his work in one battle. But he knew that Li Mi still had a backhand, but why wasn't he?

**

It's true that the army is defeated like a mountain, let you command the power, but once the army's heart is gone, even Zhang Xutuo is irretrievable.

Li Wenxiang's department was finally defeated, Li Wenxiang also retreated again and again, his mind was actually no longer on the battlefield, he had not seen Li Mi's movement for a long time, he was already cold and tired, he couldn't help but think of what Fang Cai Xiao Buyi said again, he began to choose the surname to save his life, although he still pretended to fight and restrain as much as he could, Zhang Qian also tried his best to scream, but he was also defeated again and again. Qin Shubao commanded a little numbly, but did not give the order to ask Li Mi's army to attack and help.

He knew that he couldn't mobilize Li Mi's internal army, he had given up on himself, and he didn't understand why Li Mi had missed several opportunities to turn the tide of the battle!

If this battle is lost, Li Mi's impromptu response is undoubtedly the biggest failure!

The ironclad cavalry has already entered the Wagang army, galloping vertically and horizontally, irresistible, and for a time the blood flowed like a river, and the mourning was everywhere. The horn of the Wagang Army finally blew, and the voice whimpered, as if playing a sad song!

The inner army finally rushed out of thousands of iron cavalry, but the route of the attack was arcing, and they went in a circle and went straight to the back of the iron cavalry.

The iron cavalry actually divided into three ways, and the levels of the attack were scattered!

Qin Shubao looked at the hill and already understood that Li Mi was still very jealous of the ironclad cavalry, maybe he couldn't bear to send troops, but he just wanted to sacrifice Li Wenxiang's troops, and then exchange for the victory of the cavalry!

The moment he understood Li Mi's intentions, Qin Shubao stood there stunned, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This Li Mi, as always, will do whatever it takes to win.

The cavalry of the inner army had been planning for a long time, and when the ironclad cavalry was deep in the battle of the Wagang army, they quickly cut off their rear road. The elite soldiers of the inner army suddenly shouted and shouted, the drums beat loudly, and countless elite soldiers of the inner army poured out to hold their positions and slowly pushed forward. The Wagang people were in high spirits and fought back.

No matter how reluctant they are, but now that it is a matter of life and death, they have to fight to survive!

The ironclad cavalry was encircled for the first time, and Xiao Buyi couldn't help clenching his fists, knowing that the situation of the ironclad cavalry was no longer good. He also often commands cavalry, knowing that these elite cavalry is better than speed, momentum, and sharpness, but being surrounded by heavy siege is always a taboo for these ironclad cavalry!

The advantage of speed cannot be brought into play, and these cavalrymen are already abandoning their martial arts, and their power has been greatly reduced.

But just now, if they had evacuated a moment earlier, with their speed, they should not have fallen into a heavy siege, Xiao Buyi had a trace of doubt in his mind...... Xu Shiji, what are you thinking about now?

Seeing this, Qin Shubao's spirits were greatly lifted, and he personally beat the drums, he had insight into the fighter plane, and knew that now Li Mi's internal army had come out, obviously he was desperate, and now, it was their last chance.

In any case, if they want to fight, and if they are defeated without a fight, it will be an eternal shame in their hearts.

The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, Luoshui, next to Luoshui, the forces have become entangled, all the people are waiting for the opponent to retreat, and they are all gritting their teeth and insisting on waiting for the opponent to retreat.

The infantry of the Sui army and the Wagang army had been entangled for a long time on the frozen Luoshui, and the Sui army twice dispatched cavalry to attack the right wing of the Wagang military headquarters, Li Wenxiang's troops were defeated, and Li Mi sent troops to rescue and encircled the ironclad cavalry. Qin Shubao seized the fighter plane and ordered the Wagang army on the left flank to attack the ironclad cavalry!

The sound of hooves rumbled, shouting to kill the sky, and in an instant, the passion of the battlefield was ignited at this moment. The situation was complicated, the chaotic battle was formed, and the ironclad cavalry, who had never tasted defeat, turned into a caged beast in an instant, surrounded by people layer by layer.

Xiao Buyi raised his eyebrows, turned his head and looked in the direction of Xu Shiji, the ironclad cavalry was his hard work, seeing them surrounded, Xiao Buyi felt the same way, but he knew that Xu Shiji would not let him down.

The moment Xiao Buyi turned around, the horn of the charge sounded in the Sui army, and two teams of cavalry rushed out again in the battle. Li Mi has been planning for a long time, obviously prepared, he divided three cavalry at the same time, one to cut off the back of the ironclad cavalry, and the other two to block the rescue of the Sui army!

Seeing that the Sui army came out of the cavalry, Li Mi finally ordered the inner army to block it, but he didn't expect that the two ironclad cavalry did not come to the rescue, but counterattacked the left flank of the Wagang army.

Qin Shubao was shocked, he just sent troops to support Li Wenxiang's department, the left wing was already empty, the opponent seized this fleeting opportunity, took advantage of the weakness, and the method of encircling Wei to save Zhao was really clever.

The war drums rang through Luoshui, the ironclad cavalry rushed extremely fiercely and quickly, the shield soldiers of the Wagang Army stepped forward, and there were already a lot of volleys that were rushed into the air, Qin Shubao was in a hurry, asking Li Mi for support, but Li Mi still ignored it.

After finishing his work in one battle, when Xu Shiji thought so, Li Mi actually thought the same way, he only needed Qin Shubao to hold on for another moment, he also hoped that Qin Shubao would hold on for another moment, and in his opinion, Qin Shubao could also hold on for another moment.

As long as he defeats this ironclad cavalry and defeats the Sui army, the right wing of the Sui army can be broken, and he can take advantage of the situation to cover up and defeat the Sui army.

The current fight is to persevere, and the current is to see who is the first to defeat the opponent's weakness!

Therefore, Li Mi sent troops, and the iron cavalry of the inner army sent out another team, and it was still the trapped ironclad cavalry and the Sui army!

Li Mi sent out several soldiers and horses, all of which reinforced Li Wenxiang's troops, and for a time the horses' hooves rumbled, and the soldiers poured in. The first column of the cavalry of the inner army is already about to kill before the ironclad cavalry!

However, the ironclad cavalry could no longer charge due to geographical limitations. The horses neighed lightly, but the ironclad cavalry was not flustered, just stood there coldly, and the entire horse team still had a terrifying murderous aura.

The drumbeat of the Sui army command office changed again, and the trapped Sui army suddenly struggled forward and stopped in front of the ironclad cavalry. The shield soldiers followed one after another, layer upon layer, only to hear the sound of 'pop', the human-high shield had already poked obliquely on the ground, stirring up large pieces of crystal ice chips, and the shield formed a slope, and there were already Sui soldiers hiding below. Immediately afterwards, a Sui soldier stepped forward, and the long shields met and raised the slope obliquely.

Some soldiers knelt down, some soldiers prostrate, one after another hidden under the shield, instantly built an iron shield wall on the surface of the Luoshui River, more than a dozen people in a group, sacrificed their lives to stop in front of the iron cavalry, forming countless iron shield walls!

The iron cavalry of the inner army was killed from the outside in an instant, and by the help of the terrain and then the momentum, they were about to gather the ironclad cavalry and annihilate them, where did they think of these obstacles inexplicably.

The obstacles are arranged very quickly, the arrangement is extremely magnificent and bloody, and the tragedy is unspeakable, but who can understand the sacrifice of life and death in the middle?

Frozen Luoshui, it is actually quite difficult to walk on it, and it is even more difficult for horses to change direction when walking on it. Although countless shields suddenly appeared in front of them, the cavalry still stepped on it stubbornly, unable to restrain it. The shouts came and went, the front soldiers shouted, and the prostrate soldiers behind them all worked hard, only to hear the neighing of the horses, and the loud sound of 'plopping' was endless, more than a dozen Sui soldiers worked together as a group, and countless cavalry had been swept away in the air with people and horses, and fell on the ice!

It's just that the cavalry of the Wagang army urged the horses to step on, and the force was more than a thousand catties, and some soldiers were trampled on the ground alive by the horses, crushed to death by the shield, and their tendons were broken and fractured. These soldiers are cavalrymen who protect them with their flesh and blood!

The Wagang people, who had been pestering, were stunned when they saw it, and they could no longer step forward to fight. They can't believe that there are still such tragic, brave, and persistent soldiers in the world, what beliefs do they have to insist on, why are they so enthusiastic, such soldiers, how can their Wagang army win?

It's not that Sui Jun doesn't know that he will die, but he knows that he will die and will be under the shield, so what kind of spirit makes them so unhesitating?

Xiao Buyi already had tears in his eyes, and he was inexplicably excited. He is not stupid at all, why don't you know, now is the time to fight perseverance and endurance, if the Wagang army on the left flank is defeated first, it will definitely affect the entire battle situation, and the Sui army will be besieged and solved. But if the trapped Sui army and ironclad cavalry were defeated, the Sui army would also be in great danger.

The spear was raised, and a soldier stepped forward, Xiao Buyi asked without looking back, "How many cavalry are there?" ā€

Their ironclad cavalry divided into several ways to attack, according to Xiao Buyi's judgment, there were at least 3,000 iron cavalry left, and he was ready to take these soldiers to relieve the siege!

"General Li said, please believe the two of them, and please ask the king of Xiliang not to conquer in person, and please ask the king of Xiliang to wait!" The soldier said in a deep voice.

Xiao Buyi's body froze, and when he looked back, he saw Fang Wuregret's face without regrets.

"When?" Xiao Buyi's spear slowly fell, and he asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know." Fang Wuregret shook his head.

Xiao Buyi breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the trapped Sui soldiers, only to see that their number had decreased sharply, but everyone was not afraid, but they threw away their blades, grabbed their shields, and still went to stop the opponent's cavalry one after another.

The roar, the sound of horses, the sound of the wind, rolling up the boundless wind and clouds, on the Luoshui River, the stormy waves!

"How long will it take?" Xiao Buyi muttered, he finally became anxious, he knew that he was still much worse than Li Jing and Zhang Zhenzhou, at least if he commanded, he couldn't help but rush up to relieve the siege.

Fang Wu regretted not answering, in fact, he really didn't know. At this time, only a 'click' sound was heard, and the trapped cavalry had already drawn their sabers, and their movements were in unison, and they rushed straight to Xiaohan. The battlefield was quiet for a moment, only to see that the Sui army array was also shot out of the yellow light, obliquely shining into the sky, echoing each other from afar, and then a yellow dragon burst out of the Sui army, shaking its head and tail, arrogant and uninhibited. Xiao Buyi breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the hand that was clenching the spear, and Sui Jun finally said again
