Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Liu Di led 3,000 Xiangyang sergeants, stationed in Tongzhou, Liu Di said in the letter that there were many difficulties, the implication was that the plan to attack Pengzhou needed to be delayed, Lu Yanhong asked the staff to reply to the letter, and directly demanded that the attack on Tongzhou must be launched before the 29th of the lunar month, as for whether Liu Di will do it, he can no longer control so much.

Lu Yanhong is ready to fight hard, Liu Jurong and Cao Quanyang fought against Huangchao in Jingmen, leaving him with a very deep impression, the 20,000 army led by himself, as long as he can hold on, relying on the advantage in numbers, he will be able to completely defeat the iron-blooded army, as long as the iron-blooded army is completely defeated, Shannan Xidao will be stable, otherwise the iron-blooded army occupies Bazhou and Pengzhou, and then it will definitely threaten many places south of Bazhou, and when the iron-blooded army sits big, I am afraid that he will have to pay a huge price.

It's the Spring Festival soon, and the sergeants are required to work hard, but it's not as simple as they say, in addition to the need to settle down well in life, the next thing is the reward, people die for money, birds die for food, people desperately kill the enemy also need to have hope, Lu Yanhong has long been prepared.

Lu Yanhong took out 10,000 taels of gold, a reward specifically for this battle, who was able to capture or kill the sergeant of the iron-blooded army leader Li Lang, and rewarded 5,000 taels of gold, which is a huge amount of money, not only can make the family life rich, but even the expenses of future generations are enough, in addition, kill an iron-blooded army sergeant, reward one tael of gold, kill an iron-blooded army officer, reward ten taels of gold, these rewards are all cashed out after the war.

The role of gold is huge, the soldiers under the command of Lu Yanhong have high morale, and even those who have been defeated by the Iron Blood Army have been infected and have become full of confidence, after all, they have an absolute advantage in strength.

Since the iron-blooded army has set up a position outside Bazhou City, Lu Yanhong does not have so many worries, it is said that the bandits' best combat method is to sneak attack, once they occupy the advantage, they will press on the whole line, strive for the greatest victory, loot as much property as possible, once the battle is unfavorable, or the opponent is too strong, they will quickly retreat and preserve their strength, and it is precisely for this reason that bandits can always survive and cannot be exterminated lightly.

The scout drew the terrain into a simple map, Lu Yanhong looked very carefully, judging from the formation of the iron-blooded army, thinking that it was impossible to sneak attack, and the location chosen for the battle was very open, and it was impossible to carry out a sneak attack.

In response to this situation, Lu Yanhong made specific arrangements, 8,000 sergeants took the lead in attacking, breaking down the defense line of the Iron Blood Army, these 8,000 people are the elite of the army, and the remaining 12,000 people, after the defense line of the Iron Blood Army was broken, they charged and wiped out the Iron Blood Army in one fell swoop.

Lu Yanhong asked the army to speed up the march, and he was delighted by the fighting spirit of the sergeants under his command, and he also took it for granted a great victory. Faintly, he was also a little worried, after all, the Iron Blood Army had won big victories in the previous battles with the official army, and this time it put on a regular combat model, could it be said that the combat effectiveness of the Iron Blood Army was really so strong.

Gao Chibang saw the officials and soldiers from a distance and gasped.

The momentum of the official and military tables is overwhelming, and such a momentum cannot be pretended.

Commanded many battles, the fighting spirit of the officers and troops under Lu Yanhong's command does not seem to be so strong, what happened this time, you must know that there are 20,000 officers and soldiers, and there are only 8,000 people in the Iron Army.

At this time, the only thing that can be done is to fight hard.

Gao Chibang thought for a little and immediately made adjustments to respond. The soldiers led by Huang Biao and Song Hu were required to merge into one, so that there would be 4,000 people who would attack first, and the role of these 4,000 people would be decisive, as long as they could occupy an advantage in the desperate battle, and even crush the charge and offensive of the officers and troops, it would certainly greatly damage the morale of the officers and troops.

The formation is completely set.

Suddenly, the herald came on horseback.

"General Yu, Li Lang's letter."

Gao Chibang frowned slightly and took the letter.

The order on the letter was very clear, requiring Yan Fu to lead 100 scouts to rush to the Chinese military tent, and in addition, from the 4,000 soldiers led by Gao Chibang, 1,000 people were selected and placed under Yan Fu's command.

The total strength is only 8,000 people, and these 1,100 people have been transferred, and the number of people participating in the attack is 7,000, and the ratio of the strength of the officers and soldiers is almost 1 to 3.

After thinking about it for a while, Gao Chibang Xun began to arrange, judging from the order on the letter, it seems that Li Lang needs to protect the safety of the military tent in China, but Gao Chibang understands Li Lang, Li Lang cares about the victory or defeat of the battle, and has never considered his own safety, this must be the corresponding arrangement made by Li Lang.

The rumbling drums rang out.

In the sky, the sky was densely packed with bows and arrows and crossbows.

The two armies gathered about a thousand meters, such a distance, the bow and crossbow may have a certain effect, but the role of the bow and arrow is not great, and the shields of the double anti are ready, and the possibility of causing casualties to the opponent is very small.

At this moment, shooting bows and arrows and crossbows is actually a kind of psychological offensive, some timid sergeants, seeing such momentum, are frightened, and even some people turn around and run away, if such a situation occurs, it is strict zhòng affects the morale of the army, and in the next charge, their own side will definitely be in a disadvantageous situation.

The arrow rain of the official army obviously overwhelmed the arrow rain of the iron-blooded army.

Lu Yanhong's face showed a smile, this is a rare smile.

Bandits are bandits, and they cannot be compared with the official army, so let's just say that the posture of this arrow rain is too weak, and it is conceivable that in the next charge, the official army must have an absolute advantage.

The rain of arrows, which had lasted for a quarter of an hour, finally thinned out.

Lu Yanhong did not hesitate at all, and asked the eight thousand sergeants to charge first.

The two armies are facing each other, and the army that charges first has a psychological advantage, but everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the first charge can boost its own morale, but it also faces the opponent's bow and arrows and crossbows, causing certain casualties, but as long as it is well grasped, such casualties are nothing compared with the momentum formed.

The charging formation was terrifying, and the brigade rolled up bursts of yellow sand and rushed towards the position of the Iron Army.

Gao Chibang is very happy, fortunately he has made adjustments, judging from the formation of the official army's charge, it is definitely not 5,000 people, I am afraid it is close to 10,000 people.

The rain of arrows soon appeared, mixed with bows and crossbows, and flew towards the oncoming officers and soldiers.

Some officers and soldiers screamed and fell off their horses, but the degree of the charge did not subside, and at the same time as the arrows rained down, Huang Biao and Song Hu led 4,000 soldiers to start charging.

The two torrents soon collided together.

The screams, the scolding, the crashing of soldiers, and the neighing of horses were mixed together to form a huge crashing sound.

The face-to-face fight began.

Huang Biao and Song Hu took the lead, charging at the forefront, and the Mo knife in their hands became the dream of the officials and soldiers.

Every time an officer and soldier are cut down, Huang Biao's mouth will make a roaring sound, this sound makes the officers and soldiers cold, Huang Biao is surrounded by more than 20 people, these people are pro-soldiers, killing the enemy at the same time, guarding Huang Biao's safety, these 20 or so people formed a war group, rampage among the officers and soldiers, as if entering no one's land.

Song Hu was also unambiguous, wielding the Mo knife with all his might, and every time he cut it down, it was powerful and ruthless, and even directly cut the opponent in half with men and horses.

The bravery of Huang Biao and Song Hu greatly encouraged the fighting spirit of the soldiers.

The superiority of the Predators soon became apparent, and although they faced twice as many officers and troops as they were, they completely dominated the battle from the scene of the battle.

Gao Chibang's expression was a little soothed, the bravery of the Iron Army, he knew very well that the effect of devil training was too obvious, and this kind of training was very targeted, almost all of them were prepared for actual combat.

At the beginning, Gao Chibang didn't understand this kind of training very well, but he completely accepted the battles of Tongguò several times, and he admired Li Rupei more and more in his heart.

Of course, Gao Chibang will not understand that such a training model is the result of thousands of years of summarization, which can maximize the combat effectiveness of sergeants, and only a person like Li Rupei can put forward it.

Lu Yanhong couldn't believe his eyes.

The charge of 8,000 elite sergeants was not able to occupy any advantage, and seeing that there was a rout, some sergeants were ready to break away from the fight.

When did the Predator become so brave?

The defeat is unimaginable, if the 8,000 people who took the lead in the attack are defeated and retreat, the remaining 12,000 people will not be able to charge, if the iron-blooded army takes advantage of the situation to pursue, the outcome is unimaginable.

Lu Yanhong, whose face was pale, gave an order to the herald.

The drums suddenly began to thicken, and the 12,000 waiting soldiers began to charge.

The charging sergeants, mainly infantry, formed a neat square formation and rushed towards the battlefield.

The officers and soldiers who were struggling to support them, and the reinforcements they received, their fighting spirit instantly soared, and they fought with the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army again.

Gao Chibang raised the Mo knife in his hand, and the blade pointed in the direction of the battlefield.

The 3,000 army followed Gao Chibang and rushed towards the battlefield, and unlike the official army, all the soldiers of the Iron Blood Army were charging on war horses.

The decisive battle between the two armies began ahead of schedule, and it was a decisive battle and battle related to the life and death of the two armies.
