Chapter 289: A Defeat

Huang Han led the cavalry to trot forward, but after more than 100 steps, three horsemen rushed out from the opposite side, shouting, "Dengzhou General Kong wants to be in front of the battle with Lord Zhao for a while." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" voice came from afar.

Then the cavalry in front of Kong Youde dodged away, and more than ten horsemen rushed out from the middle, two of which were fluttering, Dengzhou Counselor General, Kong.

Zhao Lie was not surprised when he saw this scene, he had Li Yingyuan as a hostage in his hand, and it was strange that Kong Youde and Li Yingyuan didn't talk about it. So he also urged the horse forward, with Zhao Da, Yu Dabao and a team of guards beside him, and a Zhao character banner with him.

The two sides met in front of the military formation.

As soon as Fang met, Kong Youde felt very awkward, because he had to look up to Zhao Lie, Kong Youde was stout and wearing iron armor, riding on a tall Mongolian horse, he still looked like a small horse, which was extremely funny. And Zhao Lie, who was tall and strong, rode on a huge black horse and looked down at him, which made him extremely unhappy.

"Master Kong is not in the south of Dengzhou City, what is the matter with this barren mountain and wild mountain." Zhao Lie arched his hand and sneered.

"Lord Zhao, the Ming people don't say secret words, Li Yingyuan, you must be released immediately, otherwise it will not be beautiful for you and me to meet each other at this moment." Since he was unhappy, Kong Youde didn't bother to greet the clouds and mountains and fog, and since Zhao Lie was here to greet him, of course he knew what they were coming.

"Oh, just let Li Yingyuan go." Zhao Lie said with a smile.

"How can there be such a cheap thing, let go of the general's son, I can send people to Shidao, and I will have to buy some shares in your Shidao business." Li Jiucheng said arrogantly.

"Hun Qiu, you think this is Phi Dao, and you don't look at what you are." Yu Dabao on the side shouted.

"Bastard. Dare to insult the general. Li Jiucheng was furious.

Kong Youde stretched out his hand to stop Li Jiucheng's barking. "Lord Zhao. What do you say. ”

"Li Yingyuan dared to hold the wife of our army general hostage, the crime is unforgivable, and he can only be engaged in military law, rest assured, this official will leave him a dog's life." Zhao Lie was unmoved, this trip was to face the battle, let's talk about it.

"Okay, I hope Lord Zhao won't regret it for a while." Kong Youde was also furious. Xindao, the hairy boy will let you know the power of the Dongjiang elite soldiers for a while.

He returned with Li Jiucheng.

"Master Kong, the armor on the bodies of these generals is made of good iron, it is the armor of the Fran machine, and the subordinates will take it and present it to the adults in a while." Li Jiucheng said greedily.

"Well, don't take the enemy lightly for a while, crush them with one blow, and don't get caught up in a fight." Kong Youde Dao. He is still quite confident in the combat power of his command, as long as it is not against Jiannu, it is also against Shangliao Town. It's just the first time to fight against Zhao Lie's department, Kong Youde still wants to be cautious.

"Brethren. Look at the Jinghai guards on the other side," back to the military formation, Kong Youde began to bewitch the soldiers under his command, "They are wearing excellent iron armor, but these good things are worn on these farmers in the guard, and it makes people greedy when they look at it, isn't it, brothers." ”

A burst of laughter erupted below, "What the adults said is that it's really eye-catching." The audacity echoed.

The Dongjiang soldiers are accustomed to life and death, and the generals on the Dongjiang Islands only care about their own net worth and their families, as for the military households and the people, they are left to fend for themselves.

Iron armor is a life-saving artifact for them, and the protection is extremely strong, not comparable to the leather armor that leaks everywhere, but these seizures have always been in the hands of military generals, and they are just greedy.

"Brothers, this time, if that soldier kills the enemy, and the iron armor belongs to his own family, he will never break his word." The reason why Kong Youde is so generous is because the Zhao Lie soldiers on the opposite side have an iron armor in their hands, as long as they can motivate the soldiers to defeat the enemy army, the distribution of iron armor is a trivial matter, so many iron armor is enough, if it is defeated, everything will be suspended, so Kong Youde issued a reward.

A group of Dongjiang soldiers cheered, and this reward spread from near and far, and the Dongjiang army continued to cheer, and their morale was greatly boosted.

"Rob her mother, rob her mother." There were constantly Dongjiang soldiers shouting.

Kong Youde looked at Li Jiucheng proudly.

"Brother Kong, what I admire most about Lao Li is that the eldest brother can make these rabbit cubs howl in a few words." Li Jiucheng is not light or heavy, who said that Lao Li is a rough man, and his kung fu is also very good.

Zhang Wenhuan led the cavalry and began to charge.

"Brothers, the Dongjiang soldiers on the other side are angry and resentful, and they are coming to rob Shidao again," Huang Han shouted by pulling his neck, "Shidao is the foundation of our group, and we will never agree, brothers." Fuck it. ”

"Fuck him." The soldiers of the cavalry waved their weapons and shouted.

"Brethren come with me." Huang Han urged the horse forward, and the whole cavalry began to trot.

The cavalry on both sides began to trot, and dust and smoke billowed from it.

Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng saw the broken army in iron armor in the rear formation, rushing like a black cloud, only the red tassel of the iron helmet on their head was beating, with a little bright color.

With three hundred paces to go, the horses of both sides began to pick up speed, and the deafening sound of horses' hooves resounded through the field, suppressing all other sounds.

Kong Youde's face was heavy, there were still a hundred steps to engage in battle, and the broken army on the opposite side did not have a trace of panic, or the queue was neatly rushing forward, it was not easy to deal with, he estimated that his own soldiers would be seriously damaged even if they won, and he suddenly felt a trace of regret in his heart.

"Shoot the arrows." With Zhang Wenhuan's shout, all the Dongjiang soldiers began to draw their bows and shoot arrows. With a buzzing sound, a large number of arrows flew into the sky and fell down with a whistling sound, striking the armor and horses of the Broken Army.

The damage to the fully armored Breakers is limited, and the damage to more than seventy percent of the horses wearing leather armor is also limited, but there are still some unlucky horses that are shot into the eyes, legs and other unarmored positions, some of the horses fall to the ground, and the soldiers of the Breakers on the horse also fall to the ground, causing some chaos.

"Bang, bang." The fire of the broken army began to sound, and the cavalry in the front row of the Dongjiang soldiers was almost empty, and a large number of Dongjiang soldiers fell to the ground with a scream, trampled by the horses behind.

Kong Youde's face twitched in the back, and he could see very clearly that most of his soldiers were hit by firearms, and his own bow and crossbow had limited damage to the captive army. However, at this time, the two sides were close to about forty paces, that is, less than ten breaths to engage in battle, and it was too late to say anything.

The two sides attacked again, and there were only a few lucky ones left in the first two rows of the Dongjiang soldiers, and the Dongjiang soldiers behind were already frightened, and at this moment, a large number of cavalry spears flew out of the army formation.

The soldiers in the first row were attacked by firearms, and the cavalry of the Broken Army in the back threw out the cavalry spears in their hands when they were close to twenty or thirty paces, and the cavalry spears flew like dark clouds covering the sun, and a large number of Dongjiang soldiers were pierced by the cavalry guns, and miserable howls sounded everywhere, and the Dongjiang army formation was in chaos and collapsed immediately.

The horses on the periphery fled, and those in the middle rushed helplessly.

With a bang, the soldiers of the two sides clashed together, the sound of weapons and armor colliding kept sounding, and soldiers continued to fall under their horses, most of them were Dongjiang soldiers.

In terms of protection, the two sides are too far apart, when the weapons are present, many soldiers of the Broken Army are only injured, while most of the Dongjiang soldiers are seriously injured or directly killed, such a situation frightens many Dongjiang soldiers to break their hearts and souls, and they have to break to both sides, while the cavalry of the Broken Army is morale boosted, wielding weapons and slashing and killing.

"Mingjin." Kong Youde saw that the cavalry of the Broken Army kept a neat queue and rushed into the broken army formation under his command, and he knew that the defeat was decided, and immediately ordered Ming Jin to retreat.

The gong of the retreat sounded, in fact, there was no order to retreat, and the Dongjiang cavalry had already fled, and the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty had always been good at fighting with the wind, and they were good at taking advantage of the victory to pursue the plane.

The cavalry of the Broken Army broke through the enemy formation and rushed directly to the Dongjiang infantry formation in the rear, the roar of the horse's hooves was overwhelming, and the Dongjiang infantry turned pale and trembled as the cavalry of the Broken Army galloped forward.

"Steady, damn, steady." Li Jiucheng shouted.

When they were less than a hundred paces close to the military formation, some Dongjiang archers shot arrows and began to attack, but these thrown arrows did little damage to the Broken Army, and the cavalry of the Broken Army approached the infantry formation with almost no damage.

At this moment, a long brass horn sounded, and the cavalry of the Broken Army suddenly split into two, not attacking the spear formation of the heavy garrison in front of the Dongjiang soldiers, but the goose wings lined up and rushed to the two wings, and at the same time began to bombard with the firearms in their hands.

The neat queue was torn through the gaps everywhere, and then the cavalry guns flew like clouds, expanding these gaps wantonly, and the miserable howls and neighing of the men and horses on the guns made the soldiers on the side creepy, such a tragic scene and the scene that could only be beaten and could not fight back made the Dongjiang infantry formation suddenly collapse, and countless soldiers turned around and fled, and the large array fell in an instant.

Kong Youde's eyes were split, he scolded the fools, ran in front of the cavalry, the infantry was slaughtered, how did he raise this gang of fools.

"Brother Kong, let's withdraw first, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood." Li Jiucheng shouted.

Kong Youde looked at the soldiers who were constantly breaking through the formation, pressing step by step, gritted his teeth, turned his horse's head and galloped northward, and the other more than 100 guards and Li Jiucheng also fled north in a hurry.

Zhao Lie rode a horse behind and approached the battlefield at an unhurried trot, only to see the corpses of the men and horses lying intermittently on the field, the cries sounded everywhere, and the doctors of the Broken Army began to enter the battlefield to help the wounded, as for the wounded of the Dongjiang soldiers, they were left to fate, and there was no time to take care of them now.

Zhao Lie looked at the corpses of the fallen people and horses on the battlefield with disgust, he was most disgusted with the internal friction between the same clan and clan, and today he was unfortunately stained with the blood of his compatriots.

At this time, he hated Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng even more, but he did not order an all-out pursuit, and he still had to keep these two scourges.

In his memory, it seems that Kong Youde is making trouble in Denglai, which is beneficial to him, which can withstand the pressure he is facing, with these two people in the front to attract the firepower of the Ming court, he can accumulate strength in secret, and if it drags on for one more day, his strength will be stronger for one day.
