For the soldiers who are standing on the front line, the most difficult moment is before and after engaging the enemy. Once the hand-to-hand battle is met, life and death are instantaneous. After Min Zhanlian's training, everyone in the guard battalion of the East Palace spared their strength like gold, and they were willing to spit out their strength only when they could kill the enemy with one blow, and never waste a trace of physical energy.

There are also many such people in the camp, but they are not guided by masters, but simply because they have experienced many battles, and they have naturally summed up the lessons - no matter how hard they try, they must leave some physical strength to escape. But any soldier who can survive three or five major battles has a psychological quality that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The Donggong guard battalion lacks experience, but it is better because of the rich skill training, as well as the physical strength of individual soldiers and the strong will to fight. When facing the elite of the camp, if the momentum does not fall behind, it will not be broken by the thieves. As a matter of fact, many officers and men were not unable to kill, but because they broke their courage, they were immediately defeated at the touch of a button, and they were chased and killed, and naturally suffered heavy casualties. As long as you always face the enemy, it is not easy to be killed by people who have no scientific training.

Chen De has never seen a long battle brought about by two elite teams. In his impression, once the military formation is handed over, victory or defeat is an instantaneous matter.

"It seems that these hundred presidents and captains have understood what 'sticking' is." Zhu Cihong held the clairvoyant mirror, and there was a beating rhythm in his voice.

Chen De could also see that the guards of the East Palace were having strength, and asked puzzledly: "Your Highness, isn't it good to defeat them in one fell swoop?" ”

"If you just want to defeat it, why bother." Zhu Cihong said: "I want to completely annihilate this group of thieves!" You see, there are too many people here to spread the formation, so the thieves in front of them are immortal, and the people behind can only watch. I can't go up if I want to, and I can't leave if I want to. In the end, he was dragged to death by our army. ”

Chen De remembered that the thieves had the advantage of being outnumbered, and suddenly said secretly: It turns out that His Royal Highness has taken into account the time, location and morale before sending the troops. If it weren't for being a prince, he would really be a general. If I fight a few more battles, I'm afraid it's better than my father's war!

He straightened his position and asked, "Your Highness, what if the enemy soldiers retreat by force? ”

"A thousand miles away." Zhu Cihong replied simply. Raised his eyes and looked at the sky: "It's almost dark." ”

Sunrise and sunset are the times when the sky changes the fastest, and I inadvertently change shijie. With the sound of war drums and the whine of horns, zuihou completely erased the light of day. In the dimness, only a vague figure could be seen. The thieves were obviously not adapted to fighting in this environment, and the already scattered formation was faintly showing signs of collapse, and more and more thieves fell to the ground, not knowing whether they were injured or pretending to be dead and unwilling to fight in the dark.

The combat effectiveness of the East Palace Guard Battalion is limited, as long as it stands in its own combat position. They are acquaintances. You don't need to look at it at all, you just need to listen to the familiar wheezing and tiger crying, and you will feel at ease. For the figures outside the formation, you don't need to see it seriously, just call up the weapon.

"Drums! The whole army presses up! Enter the flag! Zhu Cihong ordered loudly.

The drums were beating, and the Chinese army's guards also advanced with Daxu, and Chen De subconsciously reached out to grab the bridle of Zhu Cihong's mount, but he grabbed it empty. almost grabbed Zhu Cihong's body, and retracted his hand in fright. Zhu Cihong glanced back at him. He drew his saber and shouted: "All army, kill the enemy!" ”

……

"Stay in formation! Kill! Liu Laosi rode on a horse, did not wear his triple armor, did not take his rattan card, but carried a flag gun. This made him very uncomfortable.

It wasn't until he heard a thunderous drum in the air that he realized that it was the defenders of the city who had gone to war, and that they had already engaged the thieves. As the forward of the forward battalion headquarters, Liu Laosi did not hesitate, but was afraid that he would be robbed of the first credit by those "baggage soldiers" in the left battalion.

- His grandmother's. I don't know who dares to rob Lao Tzu's first battle over there! Let Lao Tzu see it, and spit on him!

Liu Laosi's legs clamped the horse's belly, and there was a pain in the wound. He grinned and shouted, "Don't lose to those baggage soldiers!" Let's kill! ”

Behind him, there was a war drum ordered by She An, which added to Liu Laosi's fighting spirit, and he wanted to make the horse run faster, and he couldn't wait to run to the front. It's a pity that he didn't learn to ride a horse for a long time, and it was not easy to make the horse walk so quickly in such small steps.

……

"General! The officers and soldiers in the back are also killed! "The herald rushed into Liu Zongmin's big tent and hurriedly reported." Let's ......" He looked up, so frightened that he swallowed the rest of the words back into his stomach.

At this moment, Liu Zongmin's beard stood up one by one, and his eyes were blood-red, like a fierce beast that was hungry and thirsty to devour the living.

"How the hell can't you stand it!" Liu Zongmin shouted: "Take me and hang it!" Lao Tzu personally went to supervise the battle! ”

- These are not the officers and soldiers I have encountered before.

The herald was depressed. He saw the situation on the front line, and the officers and soldiers on the opposite side were clearly armored and sharp, which was completely different from the Ming army he had seen before. As a thief soldier who was once part of the Ming army, the herald knew very well that such a Ming army had surpassed the troops of Xiao Cao, and was even more terrifying than the Tianxiong army of King Lu Yan.

- It's best to get an errand and get out of here.

He thought to himself.

"You quickly sneak back to Xiangcheng and report to the marshal the defeat of our army." Liu Zongmin regained his composure, and while draped, he said, "Please take precautions against the Ming army here." The crown prince Yunyun, I'm afraid it's just a lie. ”

The herald was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately responded: "Even if your subordinates die, you must bring the general's words to the marshal!" ”

Liu Zongmin took a breath, took his big knife, and heard the neighing of the mount outside the tent, it was the old guy who was born and died with him. He strode out of the military tent, pulled his bridle, turned over his horse, and raised the long knife in his hand: "Sons! Cutting off a head is five taels of silver! Take the money from me. ”

The guards of the Central Power let out a burst of shouts, and they all rubbed their hands. They couldn't see the situation in front of them, and they only thought that there was nothing terrible about these officers and soldiers who fought with the auxiliaries and civilians. Even if they can win for a while, they are only slightly stronger than the soldiers, and they still can't compare with their own ironclad elites. This kind of battle situation of winning first and then losing has been interpreted too much on the officers and men, and there is no need to worry about it at all.

However, when they rushed out of the gate with Liu Zongmin, carefully pulling the reins in the dark, they finally realized that they were wrong. These officers and men are well-founded. There weren't even lone skirmishers in sight. They use spears as long soldiers and waist knives as short soldiers, cooperate with each other, follow if they advance, retreat when they retreat, and they can't see any flaws at all.

On the contrary, it is the cavalry on their own side. Falling to the disadvantage of the pikemen's volley, before the saber could hit the head of the foot soldier, the sharp spear head was already aimed at the vital point of the body and stabbed past.

- What are these really officers and soldiers!

Almost everyone had such doubts in their hearts, and only Zuihou had a trace of luck hanging their beliefs, so that they would not collapse on the spot.

Niu Jinxing was timid when he saw the officers and soldiers attacking from both sides, and understood that the general trend had gone. At that moment, he wrapped his belongings, lit up his personal belongings, and said, "This place is not suitable for a long time." Let's go first. ”

"Don't you say a word to the general?" One of the long-term people asked.

Niu Jinxing's eyes narrowed: "Yes, I have to talk to General Liu, so that he doesn't worry about us." You go to the general and report it, and we will wait for you at the gate. ”

The chief replied and walked out.

Niu Jinxing personally hugged the package, which contained his golden seal in the advocacy camp, which he had always carried with him. With the rest of his entourage, he found a few horses outside the tent and ran straight in the direction of the shouting of killing. Without stopping at all, he mixed out the camp, and immediately identified the direction. Run to Liudian.

……

"It's almost over there, we're still here!" The sturdy man touched his frozen face, lowered his voice and complained to a thin man beside him.

The thin man pulled out a fan from his arms, and after thinking about it, he still didn't unfold it, but just tapped his palm: "I expected him to leave here!" Unless he can win. ”

"What if we really win!" The man raised the bar.

"That is, the number of Great Ming Qi is exhausted, let's go back to Wuthering Heights and Forest. Live a good life of robbing the rich and helping the poor. The thin man said.

"Strategist," a charcoal-black man approached, "You said before: If you watch the sky at night, the Liu thief will definitely go from here!" Why is it softened now? ”

The thin man known as the military advisor waved his fan and knocked it over: "If you don't speak, will you be dumb and sell?" ”

"Big boss! Someone's coming over there! There are horses, about a dozen! There was a suppressed sound of excitement from the front.

"Ahem, ahem. Let's watch the sky at night......"

"Fart!" The big boss got up from the ground: "We've been lying here for two days, and we've finally waited!" Brothers, fuck the guys, fuck the fuck, give the prince a welcome gift! ”

"Wait!" The military advisor jumped up: "Xiao Donglou, you can think about it." If you want to hug this nest of rabbits, Liu Zongmin's big fish will probably escape! ”

The big boss was originally a one-eyed, and when he saw those people and horses running from afar, he couldn't see it really in this dark night with unknown moonlight, and muttered: "What if Liu Zongmin fights to the death and doesn't retreat?" Shall we cuddle this nest of rabbits first? ”

"What patience are you! I've been waiting for two days, and I'm still one night? The military advisor scolded with hatred of iron.

"The brethren are suffocated." Blackskin muttered.

"If you're suffocated, go and pee!" The military advisor scolded: "It's a good thing for us!" ”

"Wait," the one-eyed dragon boss lay on the ground again: "It's still fighting over there, it seems that Liu Zongmin is not dead, he shouldn't run so fast." We could have stopped this nest first, and then come back to ambush it. ”

"You're a fool! Or when those people can be caught? The military advisor said disapprovingly: "Where there has been a fight, people can't see it?" ”

"Don't be in a hurry." The one-eyed dragon touched the terrifying scar on his face, and slapped it on Heipi's body: "You take two people down to stop those people, just say that they are nearby villagers who want to take refuge in the camp, and also say that a team of officers and soldiers occupied Liudian first and led them to the mountain." ”

The military advisor rolled his eyes and coughed lightly: "Just looking at those people who escaped so quickly, they must not be stupid." If such a stupid plan can be successful, we will follow your surname in the future. ”

"Although we are not a famous family, we are also a good family with innocence for generations. Want to follow my last name? It's not worth it for you to take advantage of this! The one-eyed dragon refused.

The military advisor was so angry that he blew his beard, and when he heard the black skin laughing on the side, he kicked it. It's a pity that he was wearing a long shirt, and his feet drove the hem, and the wind was too loud, so that the black skin escaped with a dodge.

These people were originally bandits in the mountains, robbing homes and houses, and blocking roads and extortion. The black belt took two brothers, both with only mallets, and slid all the way down the hill to the side of the road.

After a while, a team of people and horses galloped from the road. The man at the head occasionally had to look back, as if he was afraid that someone would chase after him.

It's Niu Venus and his gang!

"Wait! Stop it! Blackskin leapt out of the side of the road and shouted with a wave of mallet.

Niu Jinxing saw that there were only two or three people, and there were no weapons in their hands, so he had a false alarm, but he refused to stop, and immediately shouted "drive" and galloped past with his entourage.

Heipi has rich experience in robbing the road, and immediately shouted in the local dialect: "There are officers and soldiers ahead!" ”

Shh

The horse let out a long howl, was grabbed by the reins, and stopped in small steps. (To be continued......)
