Chapter 57: A Fierce Battle on the Battlefield

"Hao Bo Daoxiu is going to panic, Wang Shuang is coming to your aid!"

Just as Hao Zhao brandished his spear and joined the warband. Suddenly there was a loud sound of horses' hooves behind him, and the earth trembled with a wave of iron horses.

"Okay, the reinforcements are coming, the brothers are fighting to the death, and the meritorious service is today!"

Hao Zhao was overjoyed, and the phoenix spear in his hand waved like a poisonous snake, stabbing down the three black mountain thieves in an instant.

Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the officers and soldiers were excited, full of fighting spirit, wielding big knives to slash and kill the Black Mountain thieves, the more they fought, the more courageous they became, and gradually forced the Black Mountain Thieves to retreat from the gap.

Four hundred armored cavalry charged forward, swept in an instant, rushed into the position of the Black Mountain thieves, and the men cut down the horses, and immediately the flesh and blood flew sideways, screaming in the sky. In front of the heavily armored horsemen, the black mountain thieves who had no rules to speak of were lambs to be slaughtered, and more than 500 people were hacked to death by chopping melons and vegetables in a short time.

The heavy armored cavalry seemed to be an unstoppable chariot, crushing the Black Mountain Army forward, and suddenly the heads of people were rolling wildly, and blood flowed like a river. Eight hundred light cavalry followed, spears in their hands stabbed indiscriminately, scimitars slashed, and another splash of flesh and blood. 1,200 cavalry charged down, and had already killed more than 1,000 Montenegrin troops, and only killed more than 30 people on their own side.

"Zhang Yan, the straight lady thief, let Lao Tzu attract the main force of officers and soldiers, and now the cavalry is dispatched, this is to let me die in vain!"

Seeing that more than 3,000 people had died in battle, Da Hong was distressed and scolded his mother on the horse. At the moment, he didn't care about Zhang Yan's military order, if the whole army was destroyed, even if Zhang Yan didn't kill him, he, the commander of the Qu Army, would be dead in name, with a move of the spear in his hand, he shouted at the top of his voice: "The whole army retreats!" ”

Seeing the heavy armored cavalry of the officers and soldiers rushing towards the mountains and seas, the black mountain thieves had long lost their will to fight, and when they heard the order of the commander Qu to withdraw the troops, they were suddenly defeated like a mountain, turned around and ran, desperate to flee without their lives, and were covered by the cavalry behind them, and they could not form an army, and more than 1,000 people died in a short time.

"Those who surrender on their knees will not die!" The officers and men shouted loudly on their mounts, and more than 1,000 cavalry and the infantry under Hao Zhao formed an encirclement, surrounding more than 1,500 people who were running slowly in the middle, forming an encirclement. The black mountain thieves who were surrounded threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

The Montenegrin thief army was defeated, but the Montenegrin man who had been entangled in the position of the officers and soldiers refused to flee in embarrassment, and brought more than a dozen dead soldiers to fight to the death in the encirclement of officers and soldiers. As the big knife was cut down, there were fewer and fewer brothers around him, and gradually he was the only one left.

Although seven or eight more officers and soldiers were hacked to death, two fists were invincible to four hands, the heroes couldn't stand the crowd, and there were more and more wounds on the black-faced man's body, but he was extremely fierce and fought to the death.

"Black-faced man, your family has already abandoned you and fled for your life, and you are still fighting hard here, it's really stupid. I see that you are capable, put down your arms and surrender, and I will promote you as a military candidate in front of General Yuan, how about it? Hao Zhao commanded fifty or sixty broadsword soldiers to trap the black-faced man in the middle and loudly persuaded him to surrender.

"Bah, grandpa has not been afraid of death since he followed the great sage and good teacher, he wants to kill or scrape, and listen to him. Grandpa is dying today, and he has to kill a few more officers and soldiers! ”

The black-faced man roared loudly, and with a swing of his broadsword, he instantly slashed another officer and soldier, and he was accidentally shot in the leg. One stumbled and almost fell.

Hao Zhao couldn't wait to order the archers to shoot him into a hornet's nest, but he remembered that his son loved him like his life, and he opened his mouth every day without leaving the word "talent". This black-faced man killed fifty or sixty officers and soldiers, although hateful, but rare talent. As the saying goes, "a thousand troops are easy to get, and one general is hard to find." If we could really subdue him, the lives of these fifty or sixty officers and men would be insignificant.

"Don't let go of cold arrows, catch them alive!"

Hao Zhao brandished his spear and joined the battle group himself. and dozens of officers and soldiers joined forces to beat this big man, the black-faced guy was already a little exhausted, and just parrying the soldiers was a little clumsy, plus Hao Zhao's spear, he couldn't support it suddenly. One was careless, and someone knocked him hard with the handle of a knife on the crook of his leg, and his knee weakened, and he fell to the ground on his knees, and was tied up by officers and soldiers when he boarded.

"Hurry up and let the military doctor come to stop the bleeding and heal his wounds, don't let this person die!" Hao Zhao shouted an order to his subordinates.

In this battle, the 10,000 horses under Da Hong's command lost more than 4,000 people, 1,500 people were captured, and the rest were scattered and scattered, fleeing in all directions in a panic, and only forty or fifty people followed him to flee for their lives.

"Oops...... My centaurs, that's gone! Zhang Yan, I'm the eighteenth generation of your ancestors! After running for a while, Da Hong Jue shook off the officers and soldiers, and couldn't help but look back, only to see that all his subordinates were fleeing all over the mountains. Not far away, the blood-stained hillside was mostly the corpses of the Montenegrin army.

"Where is the traitor? Eat me with a knife! ”

A thunderclap-like shout sounded in the ground, and a red war horse galloped like lightning, and the head of the big knife slashed brightly.

Da Hong was frightened, and hurriedly waved the spear in his hand to block, "Bang Dang", the spear was shaken away, Da Hong did not feel the pain from the tiger's mouth, his head had been cut off, and before he was about to land, he was caught in his hand by Wang Shuang's horse.

"The traitor Dahong is dead, don't come down soon!"

The king put Dahong's head in his hands and shouted loudly. Seeing this, the fleeing Montenegrin thieves really knelt down and surrendered, disarming and not killing. The 10,000-strong contingent escaped less than 3,000 men, while the officers and men lost more than 200 infantry and 40 or 50 cavalry. This battle was a big win.

Just when there was a fierce fight ahead, the battle-hardened Koji Yi was also fully clothed, with a black horse under his crotch and a three-pointed knife in his hand, ordering his subordinates to move closer to Zhang Wu's transportation army.

Koji Yi understood that with Wang Shuang's 1,200 cavalry to help, more than 10,000 black mountain thieves were not opponents at all. The most dangerous thing now is not Hao Zhao, but Zhang Wu's grain army. Nine times out of ten, Zhang Yan launched a surprise attack this time to rob grain, and the cavalry took the initiative to attack, and it was likely that they fell into the plan of attacking the east and the west.

Sure enough, it didn't take much effort, the hooves of the horses in the south were loud, the hooves were deafening, and a cavalry swept over, which seemed to be about 3,000 horsemen. And the Black Mountain Army poured out from all sides of the valley, rushing down like a tide, roughly estimated at about 30,000 men. The banners of Montenegro were waving in the wind, and the murderous spirit was violent.

"The shaft is hateful, and he really fell for Zhang Yan's trick!" Koji Yi scolded angrily, rode forward, and commanded 5,000 officers and soldiers to forward to support Zhang Wu's grain army.

"Quick, put the antlers, put the repellent pistol, the crossbowman is ready to release the arrow!" Seeing the overwhelming cover of the Montenegrin army, Zhang Wu was a little flustered, and hurriedly commanded his subordinates to attack.

Before the defense of the officers and soldiers was completed, the cavalry of the Montenegrin army had already rushed over, and were shot by a flurry of arrows from the officers and soldiers, and forty or fifty fell from their horses and died, and were also blocked by antlers and horse rejection guns, and more than thirty horses were overturned, and then trampled to death by the hooves of their companions. But the proportion of deaths of 100 people was insignificant in the ranks of 3,000 people, and after breaking through the obstacles, the cavalry of the Black Mountain Thieves rushed into the camp of the officers and soldiers and slashed wildly.

With the rolling heads and the flying flesh and blood, it was the officers and soldiers who were miserable this time. More than 3,000 cavalry charged down and killed more than 500 officers and soldiers, but the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers was much stronger than that of the weak Montenegrin army, and it also made the Montenegrin thief cavalry pay the price of 200 horses falling from their horses.
