~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The first battle was won, the White Wolf Army cheered, and Le Jin's face also showed excitement. The Wolf Tooth Flying Cavalry is a time-tested strong soldier, and even he has been defeated by this cavalry arrow, and he fought against the Youzhou cavalry, and it was expected that he would achieve such a result. However, the strong crossbowmen who entered the battle for the first time could inflict such great damage on the enemy cavalry, which was quite surprising and exciting to Le Jin. But in the next moment, his expression turned grim.

In order to prevent morale from continuing to decline, and finally unbearable to fight, Gongsun continued to make a desperate bet and pressed over at full speed with the 2,000 former army.

This is the real test.

The front army of the Youzhou Army advanced in three formations, left, center, and right, and more than 500 horsemen galloped out on both wings, chasing and fighting with 200 wolf-tooth flying horses. In the smoke and dust, only the arrows roared, the horses neighed, the hooves thundered, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser.

The horn of the Youzhou Army sounded, and a unit was separated from the Chinese army and advanced in a sharp formation. In front of them side by side is a large shield pushed by several people, followed by crossbowmen, and between the large shields are strong crossbows with sword and shield soldiers and spearmen.

After entering the range of the strong crossbow at 250 paces, the White Wolf Army began to fire, and the crossbow arrows from the Tiger Crossbow broke through the air with a whistling sound, reaping lives wantonly.

There seemed to be a shower in the sky, and fifty strong crossbowmen, divided into two rows of crossbows, were fired in rounds, with the help of the rapid winding of the machinery to ensure the continuity of the attack, and the shields in that area would be covered with arrows after each round. From time to time, some people dodged and fell to the ground before being hit by an arrow, and the only thin cuirass that ordinary soldiers had could not block the penetration of the strong crossbow at all, and some people were even nailed to the ground by crossbow arrows. The follow-up soldiers immediately filled the vacancies, trying to keep the formation intact. So in addition to the sound of the wind, the sound of war drums, the sound of horns, the shouts, the humming of crossbow strings, the hissing of crossbow arrows breaking through the air, and the sound of striking the great shield, the screams and dying groans of the soldiers in the middle of the arrows were added.

As the Youzhou army continued to approach, when the distance between the two sides reached one hundred and fifty steps, even the big shield could not resist the penetration of the crossbow arrows, under the fierce impact of the crossbow arrows, the big shield leather cracked, and the soldiers behind the shield watched the defense shatter, and the sharp arrows penetrated their bodies.

After the Youzhou army struggled to survive the death zone of a hundred steps, it was finally their turn to exert their might.

The crossbowmen of the Youzhou army are about 300, holding four to five stone Qingzhang crossbows and Qizhang crossbows. When the crossbowmen fired. The left, center, and right formations of the Youzhou army had to stop, one was to reline the whole team, and the other was to let the crossbowmen shoot with the upper strings.

When the crossbowmen of the Youzhou Army came out to shoot, the White Wolf Army also poked out their crossbows from behind the shield and shot at the enemy crossbowmen.

Buzz –

A large black shadow and a small black cloud staggered over the battlefield, and a dense sound of rain hitting bananas sounded in front of the two armies, and the crossbowmen on both sides were injured in different ways. In comparison, the Youzhou army suffered more damage, because most of their crossbow arrows were blocked by the white wolf saber and shield soldiers. And the powerful arrows sent out by the tiger crossbow basically have no shield that can be blocked at a distance of one hundred and fifty steps.

"On the medical staff, the auxiliary soldiers are substituted." Lejin's lips pursed into a line. Except for giving instructions from time to time, there is no superfluous word.

As the two flags on the flying tower were hurriedly fought, in the logistics auxiliary team, the two medical soldiers hurriedly entered the battle. Carry wounded, killed crossbowmen, sword and shield men to makeshift first-aid tents behind the hills. And the soldiers who have received basic training in the auxiliaries fill the vacancy of the crossbowmen and pick up the tiger crossbow. Keep shooting.

Of all the arms, crossbowmen are the easiest to train, and recruits only need ten or eight days of training to be fully competent. Of course, speed and accuracy can only be honed by many actual battles.

The crossbowmen on both sides continued to suffer casualties and replenishment, keeping the crossbow array intact as much as possible. The crossbowmen of the Youzhou Army are six times that of the White Wolf Army, and it stands to reason that the White Wolf Army has been pressed to death, but because the rate of fire is several times worse, and the bow is slow to open and wind, it is impossible to suppress the white wolf crossbowmen who only have one team in the diffuse shooting.

Fifty VS three hundred, the density of arrows in the White Wolf Army's crossbow is significantly higher than that of the enemy, and the gap between shots is also shorter, so the number of enemy casualties is also higher. In just one hundred steps, no less than 200 sword and shield soldiers and crossbowmen fell in the Youzhou army. And the strong crossbowmen of the White Wolf Army have almost changed.

As both sides approach fifty paces, the crossbow will be suppressed by the bow and arrow, which fires quickly and crosses the guard, enough at close range to suppress any advanced crossbow.

The banner was finally raised on the flying tower, and all the strong crossbowmen were ordered to withdraw from the front army position. Next, there will be a duel between the melee classes.

The White Wolf Army did not have many melee troops, only four teams, namely a team of axe and mallet soldiers, two teams of sword and shield soldiers, and a team of spear and halberd soldiers, plus a team of medium and close support troops archers, but the combat strength was only 23 or 40 (sword and shield soldiers suffered slight casualties).

In addition to more than 500 cavalry and 2 or 300 soldiers who were killed or wounded during the battle, there were still more than 1,000 soldiers in the battle. Among them, the front and middle platoons of the three armies were all soldiers, and there were 800 people, and there were no less than 400 auxiliaries following behind.

In the face of four or five times the enemy, can the White Wolf Army, which is new to the battlefield, hold on? As the main general, Lejin has no bottom at all. Therefore he also wore scale armor, carried a sword at his waist, carried a halberd, a leather shield in his left hand, and a spear in his right hand. When leaving the command post, he issued the last order: "When the Youzhou army lights the first torch, it is the time to retreat!" ”

Fifty paces away, dozens of auxiliaries rushed out from behind the left flank of the Youzhou Army, pushing more than a dozen vehicles covered with cowhides, and rushed towards the protective pile. They were greeted by a rain of arrows, and the auxiliaries fell to the ground one after another, and more auxiliaries immediately poured out to take over.

The archers of the Youzhou army also counterattacked, and a group of auxiliaries braved the rain of arrows, dragging something similar to a rake and plough to gather the rope-connected thistles into a pile to clear the passage. Many enemy soldiers fell next to the rejection horse that had penetrated deep into the ground, and there were still Youzhou soldiers holding shields to cover the auxiliary soldiers in uprooting the rejection horse.

Arrows from both sides sneered, feathered arrows flew all over the sky, and the earth under the hills was dyed red. In spring, the soil is moist and cannot absorb so many "nutrients", and gradually accumulates into a puddle of blood of different depths.

After rounds of shooting, after dropping many corpses along the way, the Youzhou army finally broke through the last row of wooden stakes, and all the remaining archers of the White Wolf Army retreated to the mound. Basically, the ability to fight again has been lost.

Seeing that the enemy position was broken, the new force of the Youzhou Army continued to join in. The large shield and the large shield collided together, the spear and halberd stabbed each other, and the two sides began a melee battle.

As soon as the battle began, it was basically one-sided. The spearmen of the White Wolf Army were already few, and they were shot indiscriminately by the previous enemy archers, and before they could fight, the formation was already scattered. As soon as he fought with the enemy, the overwhelming impact formed by the superiority of troops instantly crushed the spearmen of the White Wolf Army. If it weren't for the nearly 100 sword and shield soldiers struggling to resist. I'm afraid that none of the spearmen will be able to escape. And the White Wolf Sword and Shield Soldiers soon fell into a frenzy of enemy forces that were several times larger.

In a long-distance battle, the White Wolf Army used the advantage of bows and crossbows to severely damage the Youzhou Army. However, when the two armies fought in close combat, the spearmen, sword and shield soldiers, and archers of the White Wolf Army were no stronger than the Youzhou Army. On the contrary, because most of them are new recruits, when they first enter the battlefield and face the superior enemy, they will soon waver in their fighting spirit and can no longer bear it. Defeated.

At this time, it can be seen that the powerful brainwashing function of the Hange Department, in the face of such a crisis, not a single white wolf soldier escaped or surrendered, but retreated to the hills. Rearm.

At this time, the Youzhou army had broken two protective fences, and the last one was ahead. Dozens of sword and shield soldiers of the White Wolf Army kept retreating, while hundreds of Youzhou troops came like a tide, and they seemed to be running a step slower. will be overwhelmed by this crowd.

Gongsun Xu was in battle behind the army, his face full of ecstasy, as long as he rushed through this last fence. Victory is in sight. When the battle came to this point, there was no formation left, and there was no need for it, even he, the main general, personally put on the battle.

It is no wonder that Gongsun Xu was so anxious, because from time to time there were reports from left and right, and his cavalry troops fought with the cavalry of the White Wolf Army, suffering heavy casualties, while the enemy suffered very little losses. If he can't break the enemy's central army in the shortest possible time, once the enemy cavalry defeats the cavalry of his headquarters and gallops back to help, the Youzhou army will be in a critical situation.

"Break through the enemy's last protective fence, who can take the enemy's Sima banner, upgrade to three levels, promote two knights, reward 100 gold, and give a beautiful maid!" Gongsun continued to slanted his finger and shouted out the reward with all his chest and lungs. The left and right sides recounted the reward loudly together, and the excited cheers of the soldiers of the Youzhou Army rose one after another, and the fighting spirit soared.

But at this moment, a new force suddenly came out and suppressed the arrogance of the Youzhou army to the end.

A team of sharps suddenly came out of the hill, all of them burly, with thick armor all over their bodies, invulnerable to knives and guns, and holding fifteen-pound long-handled axes and mallets, invincible. As soon as he broke into the Youzhou army formation, he overturned more than a dozen large shields in an instant, and the small wooden shields became two halves as soon as he axed down; The blow from the hammer was even more terrifying, and the wooden shield shattered along with the arm.

This group of ironclad warriors moved simply and neatly, smashing, slashing, and sweeping left and right, and they were really injured by rubbing, and they died when they hit. Under the wild sweep of the axe, the sound of gold and iron intersecting was not in the ears, the broken knives and halberds flew all over the sky, and the broken shield remnants fell all over the ground, like the possession of the god of war.

Many soldiers of the Youzhou Army struggled to slash and stab these ironclad sharps with ring-headed knives, short axes, halberds, and spears in their hands, but they couldn't damage half a point......

The tide-like Youzhou Army was restrained by more than 50 ironclad soldiers in the middle of this pillar, and it was difficult to advance an inch, and even retreated step by step.

Le Jin rushed to kill in front of this team of ironclad warriors, with a leather shield in one hand and a spear in the other, and the shield hit the spear, like a mad tiger. In less than half a moment, thirteen people had been killed, the entire leather shield and half of the body were splashed with blood, and the spear shaft was also soaked in blood.

At this time, in the face of the three halberds stabbing towards Lejin, blocking the action that had become an instinct, holding a shield in his left hand to separate the halberd, a spear pierced into the abdomen of a person on the left. Fight on the battlefield, breathe and decide, Le Jin will not waste time on drawing the spear, quickly abandon the spear and draw the knife, the person pounces forward, the knife walks with him, with the momentum of the downhill, the backhand slashes at the neck of the second person, the blood rushes out, sprays Le Jin's face, and the other party dies instantly.

When the opponent's body is about to fall, Le Jin shields the left side, a spin slash to slash the third enemy soldier who stabbed again with a halberd, and then dodge the thrust of the two spears next to him, smash a halberd hand with the edge of the shield, slash the knife back, and wipe the neck of the other person - many times on the battlefield are subconscious actions based on feelings, whoever can make the most correct instinctive reaction will survive to the end.

Because of his condescending and burst into the opponent's spear array, Le Jin took advantage of it, cutting down seven or eight people one after another, and disrupting the local enemy formation with his own strength.

When he was killed, Le Jin shouted happily, and threw away the ring head knife that cut the blade, and was about to pull out the halberd. Suddenly, the enemy group was divided, and a rider rushed out of the waves, and the long lance was like lightning, stabbing Lejin.

Le came in and didn't have time to pull out the halberd, and the leather shield slanted, and he frustrated and blocked.

Syllable! The tip of the lance swept diagonally above the leather shield. After Le Jin successfully qualified, he shot out and grabbed the lever. At the same time, a white wolf saber and shield soldier rushed down the slope, jumped up, higher than the horse's head, slashed off the helmet of the rider with a knife, and then hit the enemy with the shield edge, the enemy general fell off the horse with a muffled grunt, and the sword and shield soldier landed and held the helmet tightly in his hand.

The Youzhou army exclaimed in unison: "Save the captain!" "Dragged the fallen general back to his position.

Le Jin looked at the lance in his hand, and then thought of the "captain" called by the Youzhou soldiers, hey! Isn't it Gongsun Xu...... Unfortunately, it was too late.

At this time, the twilight was four, and with the last glimmer of blood, Le Jin looked at the little soldier who knocked down Gongsun Xu, and said loudly: "Good skills, what's it called?" ”

"Hui Le Sima, subordinate Yang Ji."

"The courage is commendable, this is Gongsun Xu's helmet, so keep it for reward."

"Xie Le Sima!"

At this moment, a long horn sounded at the place where the hill flew up.

And above the field, the rear army array of the Youzhou Army ignited a sparkling fire.

When night finally falls, is it the end of the killing, or the beginning of another? (To be continued......)
