Chapter 400: An Unplanned Confrontation

Chapter 400: Confrontation outside of the plan

No matter how powerful a cultivator is, he can't change a war with the power of one person. Zhuo Buyi's cultivation was strong enough, and the sword qi of Shen Tilting Fan was strong enough, but on the north bank of the Yellow Cow River, a rebel battalion with very bad combat effectiveness was enough to pile up a cultivator like them with human lives.

On the battlefield, Zhuo Buyi's ability was far less than that of the ten elites of the service battalion.

From the beginning to the present, there have been more than three hundred rebel soldiers who have fallen under Da Mo's knife. One to thirty, such combat effectiveness is enough to shock. Even if the rebels who besieged them at the beginning were really not qualified soldiers, after all, the number was there.

The rebels lost forty or fifty of Li Hao's cavalry, and his eyes were already starting to turn red.

Seeing the dense crowd of people and horses behind Gao Po, and seeing the dark green battle flag embroidered with Yin characters, Li Hao knew that if he couldn't take down the dozen or so enemies in that area, he would have no face to continue to work. With 500 cavalry, besieging more than a dozen infantrymen, and actually being killed by a counter-charge, more than 20 people were killed, such a thing is not glorious in any way.

He didn't know what the camp was, so he naturally didn't know what the meaning of the Mingguang armor and the Da Mo knife in Lu Dao represented.

"What should I do?"

Zhuo Buyi wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked for a solution.

The rebel cavalry is already regrouping, and it looks like they are going to do their best this time. On the high slope, at least 10,000 rebel troops have already been paved, and although the left front guard behind him is still struggling to build a pontoon bridge, its speed is obviously not as fast as the rebel cavalry.

Although the feather arrows have no effect on the fine armor of the camp, people will get tired after all. Wearing such an iron bump, coupled with the heavy Da Mo knife in his hand, no one knows how long Chun Gu and they can hold on. Now they are fighting completely with a blood qi, once there is despair in their hearts, then the Mingguang Armor and the Da Mo Sword will no longer have power.

Fang Xie looked back at the Sui soldiers in the river, was silent for a while, and said, "If there is no miracle, it looks like we are dead." ”

Zhuo Buyi suddenly smiled: "I never thought that I would die on the battlefield, I spent so many years in prison, and finally turned my back on the old lord to assist the emperor, it is estimated that the hundreds of ghosts of the Jiangduqiu family have been looking at me coldly in the underworld." I thought I was going to die a bad death...... Who would have thought that the most reluctant, the most reluctant, would actually fall into a glorious death. ”

He smiled with relief, but Fang Xie could hear the sadness and desolation in his tone.

At the beginning of Emperor Sui's ascension to the throne, he slaughtered the Jiangdu Qiu family, and this matter has always been a knot in Zhuo Buyi's heart. He was originally a guest of the Qiu family, and although the Qiu family did not have any great kindness to him, Zhuo Buyi has always been grateful to him. The emperor thought that he was a rare talent, and Luo Weiran interceded with him as an old friend many years ago, so he was just locked up.

Now, he was in the midst of death, and he saw it as a relief.

"Since you're going to die, do you think you have to die more glorious?"

Fang Xie suddenly smiled and asked.

"How?"

Zhuo Buyi asked.

"See the cavalry general?"

Fang Xie pointed to Li Hao, who was commanding the rebel cavalry to rush over in the distance: "That guy is at least a rebel general, although the color of the coat inside has changed, the standard of leather armor is still Dasui." Killing another rebel general before dying is considered a complete merit, right? ”

"What are you going to do?"

Fang Xie looked at the cavalry that was getting closer and closer, and smiled: "Compare to see who is lucky?" ”

After he said this, he picked up a throwing gun from the ground and aimed it slightly, and then threw it forward with a raised arm, and the throwing gun flew straight forward, like lightning. Fang Jie's muscle strength was more than a thousand catties, and the spear drew an afterimage and stabbed Li Hao quickly.

Zhuo Buyi Ha Da Lu smiled: "I have always had good luck. ”

After saying this, he also picked up the throwing gun from the ground and threw it at Li Hao. Previously, the rebels attacked with throwing guns, and at least 100 of the plum blossoms outside the camp were dropped. At this time, the rebel cavalry was still about fifty paces away from Fang Jie, and it only took a few breaths to rush at the speed of the war horse. It is precisely because the war horse is too fast, the spear is faster, and the relative travel, so the distance of the spear flight becomes shorter, and it is more rapid and difficult to prevent.

Seeing Fang Xie and Zhuo Buyi picking up the throwing gun and throwing it over, Chun Gu thrust the Da Mo knife into the ground, and also picked up a round arm and threw it forward. The people in the camp followed suit, and with the big dog and Mu Xiaoyi, more than a dozen throwing spears shot out towards the cavalry side one after another.

Li Hao's personal soldiers saw that the spear was coming quickly, and immediately accelerated to protect Li Hao behind, and the two cavalrymen on the left and right raised the cavalry shield hanging on their arms to protect Li Hao's upper body. Fang Xie threw the throwing spear too quickly, and the two pro-soldiers only raised their shield guns to arrive. The cavalry shield is much smaller than the infantry shield, and the diameter is only about one and a half feet, and no matter how large it is, it will affect the action of killing the enemy.

The spear came in an instant, and with a snap, the cavalry shield on the soldier's arm pierced a hole. The spear pierced the soldier's arm and then into his chest, and the force of the shot was unstoppable. Pierce the shield, pierce the forearm, and knock the soldier off his horse. When the soldier fell off the horse, his body smashed on the body of Li Hao's war horse, and the horse neighed in surprise and jumped up.

Zhuo Buyi's throwing gun happened to fly, directly piercing the neck of the war horse.

The tip of the spear passed through the horse's neck, Li Hao was shocked, and cut off the spear with a knife to stop the horse from falling, but he stabilized, more than ten spears came one after another, and after a series of muffled sounds, Li Hao's body was penetrated by six or seven spears, and the horse was also shot several times.

The man and the horse let out a wail at the same time and fell to the ground, and the cavalry behind had no time to avoid it, and stepped on it one after another, a horse's hoof stepped on Li Hao's eye socket fiercely, and suddenly, the eyeballs with red thin blood veins squeezed out of the eye sockets, and the nose bone and half of the face were trampled and collapsed. The viscous brain pulp trickled down the cracks, and it looked like minced tofu brains. The horse couldn't keep its balance and threw itself forward, and after hitting the ground with its neck, it pouted upwards and flipped over.

The second war horse stepped on Li Hao's chest, and with a click, his chest was like a layer of window paper that had been pierced, and the blood inside immediately flowed out. At least four cavalrymen tripped over their horses and Li Hao's corpse, howling and falling. By the time the people behind him reined in the war horse, Li Hao's body had already been trampled into a meatloaf.

The slimy entrails were trampled on by the horses' hooves and mixed with the dirt, turning a gray-black color. It's like touching the mud that has been stepped on by countless people after the rain, but there are a lot of red bubbles.

……

……

Li Hao was killed, and the cavalry behind them reined in their horses in fear, and the impact formation that had just been formed was immediately chaotic, and the cavalry looked at each other, wondering if they should continue to charge.

At this moment, there was a whining horn sound from the high slope. The cavalrymen subconsciously regrouped when they heard the horn and looked at the location of the dark green flag.

Yin Poshan was immediately on the high slope, put down the clairvoyance in his hand and couldn't help but snort coldly.

His face was cold, and his eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

He already knew the previous battle situation, a folding battalion, plus five hundred cavalry, was helpless to do more than a dozen Sui troops. Even if the soldiers of the folding battalion were low, they were still a team of 1,200 people. More than 100 times the enemy, he actually lost more than 200 people and didn't even kill a single person from the other side.

Not to mention the cavalry, the number of losses has exceeded seventy or eighty, and the other general who led the troops was also shot to death, such a scene was humiliating and thrown to grandma's house.

So he gave the order to blow the horn and let the cavalry regroup.

"Go, tell those cavalrymen that if you don't take those few people today, everyone will be punished as collaborators. Hundreds of people have already died, and I don't care if a few hundred more die. I don't need to keep any of the wine bags and rice bags. ”

"Whoa!"

The herald answered, and the horse rushed over.

"Who is the one who leads the troops?"

The herald asked the rebel cavalry loudly.

One of Li Hao's personal soldiers hesitated for a moment, and replied with an ugly face: "The general is dead." ”

"The general is dead, but the pro-soldier team is still alive?"

"I'm in"

Li Hao's pro-soldier team was moving forward to mention the horse, his face was apologetic, guilty, and afraid.

"The general has an order, now you come to command, the lord will be buried with his own soldiers who died in battle, if you don't take down those enemies today, not only your own soldiers, everyone will be dealt with by military law!"

"......"

Li Hao's pro-soldier team was clenching their fists, and a trace of fear flashed in their eyes. Yin Poshan is ruthless in nature, and no one who annoys him can survive. In this army, there is no such thing as a set military rule. Some are just the absolute obedience demanded by Yin Poshan, and if you don't obey, you will die.

The team knew that the Sui army on the other side of the road was not easy to mess with, although there were only a dozen people, but all of them were killing gods drilled out of hell. Now that it's time for him to rush up.

"Foot on the enemy!"

He shouted loudly, and then took the lead in urging the horse to rush out.

Fang Xie looked back at the other side of the river, the pontoon bridge was at least a hundred meters away from the bank, and the rebel soldiers were already lined up by the river, and the archers were densely lined up, waiting for an order to fire ten thousand arrows. The left avant-garde auxiliaries on the pontoon bridge had only thin cotton armor on their bodies, which could not block the arrows at all.

While splicing and fixing piles into the river, the auxiliaries were already busy sweating profusely. They also knew that as soon as the rebel archers on the opposite side let go of the bowstring, their lives would come to an end.

The general commanding the rebel archers was just about to give the order to release the arrows, when he saw a group of cavalry suddenly appear in the array of the left front guard on the south bank, surrounded by a general wearing gold armor from the ranks, looking at the tall banner, he guessed the identity of the arrival, after all, among the sixteen guards of the Great Sui, only Luo Yao had the imperial golden armor.

Luo Yao stopped his war horse by the river, and looked at the situation on the other side with clairvoyance, and his face became more and more gloomy.

"Liu Kuo"

He stretched out his hand and pointed to where Fang Xie was: "If the rescue is not effective, what should be punished?" ”

Liu Kuo's face turned pale, and he leaned over and said, "Cut it!" ”

"Give you 300 Jingbu camp, if you can't save Fang Jie, you don't have to come back."

The corners of Liu Kuo's mouth trembled, and then he said loudly: "Subordinates obey orders!" ”

Luo Yao stretched out his hand and pointed forward: "Ballista, smash the arrow array on the opposite side for me." ”

At least forty ballistae that had been mobilized lined up on the shore, and with an order, forty huge crossbow arrows roared and smashed over, and in a moment they reached the opposite bank, and the rebel archers who had already lined up were torn apart by the fierce tearing, and the wails floated clearly from the opposite side.

On the left guard, there are also ballista carts constantly brought up, joining the bombardment array. The rebels were far less well-equipped than the left avant-garde, and this place was far from their main camp, and without a ballista to return fire, the arrow array on the shore was immediately smashed to pieces.

"Follow me!"

Liu Kuo shouted loudly, and then took the soldiers of the 300 Jingbu Battalion and rushed out of the other side with a dozen small boats that he had finally found. The county soldiers of Huangyang Road withdrew so much that they almost scuttled through the fishing boats out of resentment. The dozen or so boats were still found from nearby villages, and they could barely carry three or four people across the river.

Yin Poshan saw Luo Yao's banner appear on the other side, and his brows furrowed more and more.

His eyes were full of anger, and he didn't know why he was so angry when he looked at Luo Yao.

No one thought that this time, including Fang Xie himself, would cause the first confrontation between the left avant-garde and the rebels. And this confrontation is not even in Luo Yao's plan or Yin Poshan's plan. A balance that was inadvertently broken by Fang Jie.
