The wind picked up in the fortieth section, and a piece of grass clippings swirled, swaying, facing Li Yuan's face and burrowing into his nose. The annoying itch made him can't help but sneeze loudly.

This sound alarmed Zuo Ying, and he turned his head and looked at Li Yuan. only to find that the other party's face was as if it had been coated with a layer of paste. Under the scorching sun, the entire black face reflected an oily glow.

The Black Armor Army has never suffered such a large loss since its establishment. According to Li Yuan's official rank and the military system stipulated by the Eastern Han Dynasty, the entire Black Armor Army should be 30,000 people. At its peak, the Black Armor Army did reach more than 30,000.

In March this year, the Eastern Han Dynasty marched south. Li Yuan was ordered by the Ministry of War to go south with His Royal Highness the Prince, and the black-armored cavalry at that time was 30,000 people in the full system. However, with one battle after another came down. These men who crisscross the northern frontier. But only 12 out of 10 remained. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The Horse Leather Shroud was a warrior's dream, but the casualties were so heavy. I didn't expect it.

The Southern Barbarian Army rushed over like a tide. Although it looks chaotic, it looks like it has its own majesty. They shouted. Armed with a variety of weapons, scimitars, straight swords, daggers, and more. Under the stimulation of "rewarding a thousand taels of silver, sealing the general". Fear has long been forgotten by them. Yes, they just tried their best to crush the Eastern Han people in front. Go and pluck your own glory and riches.

"Formation, with me as the center, a square circle, a semicircle to resist the enemy." Li Yuan stared at the black-pressed enemy tightly, and shouted in a deep voice again.

Fangyuan Array, one of the eight formations of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the main defense. The general is located in the center of the formation. Perimeter forces are deployed layer by layer. Spears, bows and swords are outside. Mobile forces included. Supplemented by a large shield on the periphery, grain, grass, and heavy carts. It is one of the formations commonly used by the Han army in the northern Xinjiang infantry to deal with superior enemy forces. Because of its strong defense, it has poor mobility. That's why the Grain and Grass Guards are very fond of this formation.

The black armor elite cavalry led by "Black Whirlwind" Li Yuan is famous all over the world, and although this kind of defensive formation is not commonly used, it is naturally practiced frequently. The remaining more than 3,000 black-armored sergeants heard Li Yuan's shout and tightened their weapons again. Along this col, the lower formation was reorganized.

In this rapid march, in order to travel lightly, everyone not only killed the horses, but even discarded a lot of baggage. Naturally, there is no such thing as a large shield commonly used in defensive warfare. Even the bow and arrow are a bit insufficient.

The two sides are one hundred and fifty meters apart.

"Ready—" Li Yuan raised his Zhangba spear again.

The spear body is too long, Li Yuan is already tall, but this spear is equivalent to the height of two Li Yuan. Even so, he just stood there, but it was a little more powerful.

"Put-" Li Yuan let out a loud shout, and the spear body suddenly went down with his shout, bringing a strange arc.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......" black-armored sergeants are all composite longbows unified by the Eastern Han cavalry battalion. The effective firing range is one hundred and fifty steps. More than 2,000 warriors fired their bows together. More than 2,000 arrows poured into the enemy's ranks. Suddenly, hundreds of Nanban warriors who rushed in front fell, and the front line of the entire Nanban charge suddenly slowed down, and a ghost cried wolf.

However, there were too many Nanbanians, and they shouted all kinds of local languages that Li Yuan couldn't understand, and under the stimulation of money, they were like madmen, holding weapons. Stepping on the corpse of his companion, he rushed over with a shout.

After the enemy formation panicked for a while. Many Nanban warriors with bows and arrows took out their longbows one after another and fought back. However, it is not easy to aim while running, and it is not easy to draw the bow, coupled with the defects of the material of the bow and arrow itself, most of this wave of counterattacks fell to the ground before reaching the destination. Occasionally, one or two arrows flew into the Eastern Han army formation crookedly. He had already lost his speed and strength, so naturally he didn't do any damage.

Li Yuan swung his spear and knocked away several arrows that shot at him. Several feathered arrows shot at his iron armor, and a crisp "clanging" sound suddenly sounded. He stood still and said loudly again: "Put!" ”

The second wave of arrows from the Han army poured into the enemy's ranks. The Nanban sergeants continued to fight back. this distance. The Nanban bow and arrow already had the capital to threaten the other party, but he had no choice but to pull the bow while running. In addition, teammates followed one after another, and they were chaotic. Often, when the archers were aiming, several Nanban warriors had already rushed over in front of them, and their vision was blocked. And the fighters behind rushed forward. Gather around the archers and move on. It is difficult to carry out effective elevation fire. So the damage caused is really limited.

The two sides are fifty meters apart.

"Phew-" The Southern Barbarian shouted, and launched the final charge. The black-armored sergeants in the back row put away their bows and arrows after shooting the last round of arrows. He drew his weapon and hid behind the pikemen in the front row.

"Ahh The overwhelming torrent finally crashed into the black army formation.

Li Yuan was independent of the front of the circle formation, looking at the overwhelming enemies rushing over, but he couldn't help but sigh softly. When he was very young, he aspired to be a general, a general who stood up to the sky and was admired by everyone. Therefore, he has been practicing spearmanship since he was a child. Diligent Revision of the Book of Soldiers. I hope that one day, I will be able to cross the battlefield and realize my dream of being a general. Although he was born in a side branch of the Li family, the Li family has become more and more powerful in the government and the opposition in the past ten years. So at the age of fifteen, he was awarded the title of Centurion of the Forbidden Army by virtue of his excellent marksmanship and military theory.

However, after a few months, he stayed in the forbidden army, and what he saw was more eating, drinking, and having fun, and gambling in the army. is far from the iron army in his mind.

So in that year, he resolutely resigned from the position of centurion of the forbidden army and arrived in the northern plains. I hope that I can contribute to the defense of my country and people. Only in this way can it be more in line with one's own ideals. However, with his own official position getting bigger and bigger. This kind of thinking is fast becoming a luxury. He found himself in a great whirlpool.

And now, I can't pull it out. Even the battlefield battles are getting farther and farther away from their original intentions, and they can't help themselves. In a daze, a spear was handed to him. He subconsciously turned around and dodged away, and when he looked closely, he saw a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. He was looking at himself with a pair of eyes open, and he looked disparate. He was looking at himself with a look of astonishment, and the sinister smile on his face had not subsided.

Presumably, the other party was a little surprised that he could dodge this killer shot. Seeing the other party's childish face, he couldn't help but feel angry. When I first joined the army, I guess it was so big, right? Thinking of this, he suddenly changed his mind and kicked at the other party, hoping that this kid could survive this battle.

The young man saw Li Yuan kicking at him, but his eyes showed fear. He let out a sharp shout. His voice was so hoarse that he sounded like he was crying. Then he dropped the spear, and when he didn't know what was in his left hand, he took out a dagger and stabbed it straight towards Li Yuan.

Li Yuan's heart suddenly shook, and he was about to make a move. A simple knife suddenly stretched out from the oblique stab. He slashed the boy in the abdomen. His body shook, and he looked at his abdomen with a look of disbelief.

The knife was so powerful that his entire body slammed backwards. Bumped into the later Nanban warriors. When the knife was drawn, blood splattered like an arrow.

The boy fell on his back, his shaggy chin shining in the scorching sun. A few drops of blood splashed on Li Yuan's face.

Li Yuan's heart trembled suddenly: "Actually, he is just a child. ”

"Are you alright, sir?" Zuo Wei wiped the blood from his face and shouted softly. He is also wondering now, what happened to the adult who has always been decisive in killing, and almost let a child sneak attack today.

Li Yuan suddenly came to his senses, and he suddenly felt a burst of irritability. Clenched his spear and let out a loud scream. It seems that this is the only way to vent the depression in my heart. Then the spear swept and immediately knocked away the three close Nanbans. More and more southern barbarians poured up, and the two sides shouted and fought, and the sound of killing shook the sky.

At this point, fear is useless.

The people of the Eastern Han Dynasty cannot be afraid. They're going home. Once defeated. It's the fate of dying in a foreign country. The family has their own parents, wives, children. These are the driving forces for them to move forward.

The Southern Barbarians are not able to fear. They saw their comrades in the front row, shouting and rushing into the enemy's gun array. A splash of blood and a scream. It's too late to release your fears. He has been pushed to the front row by his comrades in the back row, facing the relentless gun array in front of him.

The two sides fought to the death, and the black camp was always held in the mountain pass, and they occupied a favorable position. Like the Grim Reaper, mercilessly harvesting one human life after another.

The Southern Barbarians had a numerical advantage, they had dozens of times the number of enemy troops. From the initial enthusiasm, to fear, to numbness, to anger. Wave after wave rushed towards the black army formation in the mountain pass.

"Dawazi, what's wrong with you, wake up." On the battlefield, a forty-year-old Southern Barbarian hugged a young man who had just been knocked away by Zuo Wei. His face was full of despair. The sorrow of a white-haired person to a black-haired person is nothing more so.

He saw his son rush up the mountain pass, being slashed by a simple knife, and then pierced by the spear array of the Eastern Han army. Tumbling down into the small stream by the side of the road. The ditch had long since lost its original clarity, and a bewitching red color appeared.

"I'm fighting with you." The man picked up a scimitar from the ground and rushed forward like crazy.

Li Yuan had already killed red eyes, looking at the enemies who came in a steady stream. A spear stabs left and right. In front of him, a vacant lot appeared in front of the boss, and many southern barbarians were taken by his murderous aura and bypassed it one after another.

At this time, when he saw a southern barbarian rushing towards him, he didn't even think about it, and his backhand was a spear, picking up the place and flying. The man was in mid-air, but his whole body had become a bloody man. With a bang, he fell to the ground, not far from the young man's body. He crawled over with difficulty, and then hugged his child. Satisfied, he closed his eyes.

"A-dream, A-dream!" A middle-aged man picked him up and shouted bitterly, however, Li Yuan was stabbing him in the chest with a spear, and even the gods could not be saved.

The man let go of his friend. Rushing to the mountain pass with red eyes. At this time, there is no longer an ethereal reward.

……

In the Southern Barbarian Army, most of them used townships as camps and clans to build their armies. Most of them are villagers, relatives, teachers and students, and even fathers and sons. At this time, it broke out with extraordinary combat power.

"Resist, brothers, Lord Wu will immediately catch the Nanban Emperor. When the time comes, there will be nothing to stop us from going home. Li Yuan swept away a Nanban warrior who pounced on him with one shot. The halberd is like a dragon. Pierced one person again, made a circle, and smashed into the enemy formation in the rear.

He is like a god of war who never tires. supported everywhere in the formation, and saved the lives of Eastern Han soldiers several times.

Four or five weapons were handed over to Li Yuan at the same time. He slammed his spear to the ground. Then the whole body was pulled up violently with the force of a shock.

"Look at the arrows!" In the distance, not far away, there was a sudden loud shout. Li Yuan's heart suddenly shook, this voice was so clear on the chaotic battlefield, obviously, the other party was also a martial arts master. However, at this time, he was in mid-air, like fish on a chopping board, where could he still dodge? "Huh-" The bow roared. Under the cover of various voices of the battlefield. Pointing directly at Li Yuan.

In his busy schedule, he had to tilt his head slightly, but he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his left eye. The pain came so suddenly, a cone-like pain suddenly passed into his brain, and he suddenly felt the Venus in front of him burst into the air. He could no longer hold the gun and fell from mid-air.

"Your Excellency!" Zuo Wei was suddenly shocked, and several pro-soldiers also grabbed it at the same time, and they rushed over to help.

The southern barbarians suddenly thundered with joy, "General Mo is heroic, General Mo is invincible." The shouts came one after another, and in the sound of the trumpet, as if beaten with chicken blood, they rushed towards the mouth of the col again. For a time, the semi-circular array of the entire Han army was in jeopardy.

Zuo Wei looked at Li Yuan, whose face was covered with blood, and couldn't help but feel anxious. In the entire Black Armor Army, Li Yuan is the soul of the army, "Could it be that the Black Armor Army is really finished?" Will it be like this Eastern Han Southern Expedition, and end up in defeat and destruction? At this time, Li Yuan moved, only to see him lying on the ground, waving his hand to the soldiers, signaling that he did not need to help him. Then he reached for the spear beside him, lifted it, and slowly stood up. Zuo Wei was stunned for a moment, and silently watched him first straighten the big banner with the word "Li" behind him, and then turned his head.

"Ahh Blood flowed down his face like a spring. makes his whole person even more hideous.

He didn't care about it, just pinched the arrow, approached his big mouth, and then tilted his head, only to hear the sound of "grunt-", he actually swallowed his eyeballs alive.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the entire Black Armor Army was touched by Li Yuan's martial bravery, and suddenly let out an earth-shattering cry.

"Your Excellency is heroic."

"Avenge your lordship."
