Chapter 535: The Bloody Battle Outside Jingdezhen (3)
After giving the order, Chao Gai immediately turned around and got off the command platform, and said to Shi Bao beside him: "You are here to protect the Shuai Qi, if the Shuai Qi is taken, you must come to see it, there must be no mistake!" ”
"Yes!"
Shi Bao shouted, Shi Bao had never doubted Chao Gai's orders, he was always 100% obedient, he was, he was, and he would be the same.
Immediately, Shi Bao took off the big sword that broke the wind immediately, and ran towards the handsome banner without hesitation, he and Xiaoyang were responsible for commanding four thousand pikemen transformed from the Divine Arrow Battalion with Ji Pang Wanchun, and the pikemen formed a phalanx, holding a shield in one hand and a spear in the other, and surrounded Liangshan for the Tianxingdao banner in the middle.
Dressed in golden armor, the Heavenly King of Tota Chao Gai waved the Heavenly Dragon Breaking City Halberd in his hand, pointed to the imperial army two miles away, and shouted: "Brothers, the brave will win when they meet on the narrow road, kill it!"
Chao Gai roared, galloped on horseback, and killed hundreds of thousands of imperial army without hesitation, and rushed directly into the crowd, and the guard battalion behind him followed closely behind Chao Gai, Xiao Wenhou Lu Fang, Sai Rengui Guo Sheng, Zhang San, the street rat, Li Si, the grass snake, and the female general Yizhang Qinghu Sanniang surrounded Chao Gai's side.
"Kill!"
The roar of hundreds of thousands of Liangshan soldiers resounded all over the land, and they galloped their horses, fought bravely, and followed the commander to kill the imperial army.
The two armies fought outside Jingdezhen for a while, and the commander of the imperial court, Chen. Xi Zhen and other generals also ran to the front of the team. Xi Zhen stabbed out the eight snake spears in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Pass my military order, kill the leader of the Liangshan Bo bandits, reward 10,000 taels of gold and silver, and seal the official seal of the Inner Marquis!" ”
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward, hundreds of thousands of imperial army also broke out at this moment to break out of the earth-shattering shout, the two armies of nearly 400,000 people collided, so that the heaven and earth changed color, in the vast land outside Jingdezhen, launched a life-and-death decisive battle between the two armies.
At this time, at the outer entrance of Jingdezhen, about ten miles east of the Great Wall Ridge, there was another Liangshan military horse, about 40,000 people, which was the White Tiger Legion military horse led by the big sword Guan Sheng, which was a step tactic discussed in advance by Chao Gai and Guan Sheng and others.
This new force will use the elite cavalry as the sharpest sword, and when both armies are finally exhausted, this new force will suddenly kill from behind the imperial army, which will become a decisive step for the two thousand trapped people to defeat the imperial army.
At this time, Guan Sheng was immediately under a big flag, he was waiting for Chao Gai's order, Guan Sheng squinted his eyes slightly, and looked at the direction of Jingdezhen worriedly, it was already afternoon, the two sides had been fighting for almost three hours, and there was still no winner or loser, the enemy was outnumbered, Guan Sheng was very worried about Liangshan's situation at this time.
Guan Sheng knew very well at this time that for this kind of battle of killing 1,000 enemies and losing 800 self-losses, this is a way of war that Sulai is absolutely unwilling to choose, but the imperial court military horses chose this way, which makes Chao Gai helpless to face, but what makes Guan Sheng more worried is that the number of the imperial army is more than twice that of Liangshan's military horses, not to mention the final defeat, it is still a big question whether or not the victory in this war can be achieved.
At this time, the Liangshan army and horses could only rely on high morale and two heavily armored soldiers of the Ten Lion Tiger Division and the Seven Killing Division to win this victory.
At this moment, a group of cavalry galloped up, and the first lieutenant shouted from afar: "Guan Guan, Guan Guan!" ”
As soon as Guan Sheng saw the visitor, Danfeng's eyes suddenly opened, and he immediately recognized that this was the pro-soldier captain beside Chao Gai, and when he saw the other party's anxious expression, Guan Sheng was suddenly shocked in his heart, and hurriedly urged him to step forward and ask: "Tell me, how is the situation outside Jingdezhen?" ”
The captain shook his head pantingly, and it took a long time before he recovered, and his tone was very heavy, "Manager Guan, both the enemy and us have suffered heavy casualties, and the physical exertion of the brothers is too great, and they are about to be unable to support it, and they have lost more than 12,000 people, and our archers have also suffered more than half of the casualties." ”
Hearing the captain's answer, Guan Sheng's face sank, and his heart seemed to sink into the abyss, the heavy infantry of the Lion and Tiger Division had the strongest defensive ability, and they actually suffered so many casualties, so the casualties of other armies can be imagined, and he asked anxiously: "What is the situation of the Governor of Chaogai?" ”
"The situation of the Metropolitan Governor is a little better, there is a guard battalion to escort him, and he is fighting a fierce battle with the personal guards of the 30,000 imperial court marshal He Taiping, but it is still very tragic."
Speaking of this, the captain of the pro-soldier school took out a gold medal, handed it to Guan Sheng, and said anxiously: "Your Highness ordered Guan to send troops quickly, the target is the second route army of the imperial court in the east, Your Highness said that as long as the second route army is defeated first, then the court army will retreat without a fight, and the hope of victory in the end will be great." ”
Guan Sheng looked serious, took the gold medal cautiously, and nodded, "Guan Mou understands." ”
Immediately, Guan Sheng immediately turned around and shouted: "Brothers, the whole army is leaving!" ”
At this time, the great battle outside Jingdezhen had reached a fever pitch, with hundreds of thousands of troops fighting bloody battles on a land more than 20 miles wide, groups of cavalry fighting each other, swords and spears, horses neighing, and infantry hugging each other and scuffling.
"Wow!"
"Plop!"
"Hahaha, you all give me death, the brave wins when you meet on a narrow road!"
"Brother Chao Gai, I Pang Zhen didn't flinch, but I can't fight with you on the battlefield anymore, and I can do the right thing for heaven, and then there will be an afterlife, I ...... I will definitely join Liangshan.! ”
A war horse was overturned, and Pang Zhen's bloodstained face grinned, and he slammed his sharp spear into the chest of the fallen man, and the spear pierced the chest, and the fallen man let out a long miserable scream.
At this time, Pang Zhen's blood-stained face looked up and laughed wildly, the laughter suddenly stopped, a cold arrow shot through his throat, and a war horse immediately galloped past him, the sharp war knife cut his neck, the human head flew up, and the blood in the neck cavity burst out.
At the same time, a few zhang away, the two generals on both sides were entangled and rolled off their horses together, and the general of Liangshan choked the neck of the general of the official army, pressed his knee against his chest, pulled out an arrow, screamed like crazy, and an arrow was deeply inserted into the face of the general of the official army, and the general of the official army screamed miserably, dying and struggling, he pulled out a short knife from his combat boots, and stabbed it into the chest of the general of Liangshan.
And these two people are Zhen Xianglin, the general of the official army, and Shi Yong, the general of Liangshan, although Shi Yong is usually not noticeable, he is also an iron-blooded man.
On the battlefield, the fiercest battle was the 4,000 pikemen led by Nanli Taibao Shibao and Xiaoyang led by Ji Pang Wanchun, who were responsible for defending the handsome banner of Liangshan and the banner of the Tianxingdao, and were fiercely attacked by the cavalry of the 12,000 imperial court guards.
Shi Bao at this moment in the face of waves of official cavalry crazy attack, immediately ordered the pikemen to form a phalanx, desperately defend the banner, after more than two hours of fierce fighting, Liangshan military horses have been killed and wounded more than half, and 10,000 court officers and cavalry are also killed and wounded more than 4,000 people.
The corpses of the war horses and people were piled up into a mountain, and the bubbling blood flowed into a stream, and soon became a small lake, and the land was full of lakes with a red color, but the handsome banner of Liangshan still stood upright, hunting and fluttering in the cold wind, inspiring the morale of all the hundreds of thousands of Liangshan troops on the battlefield.
The banner of Tianxingdao is surrounded by the corpses of the fallen Liangshan soldiers, and the war horse under Shi Bao's crotch has also been shot to death, and he has also been hit by three arrows, even so, Shi Bao still does not care about it at all, at this moment, he is covered in blood, standing under the handsome flag, his eyes are red, covered in blood, and he clenches the wind knife in his hand, and the big knife is stained with cerebral flesh and blood.
"Brothers, keep in formation, you must not disperse, behind us is the banner of our Liangshan for the way of heaven, and the people are in the flag!"
Even though Shi Bao's voice was hoarse, he still screamed desperately.
Nanli Taibao Shi Bao is very clear that the reason why the pikemen can confront the cavalry is that the dense spear formation If the spear formation is scattered, it will inevitably be slaughtered by the cavalry, which is not only clear to Shi Bao, but also every general, battalion commander, and even the commander, they all know, so no matter how fierce the official cavalry is, the pikemen are scattered again and again, and they are assembled again and again.
"General Shibao!"
A lieutenant pointed to the northwest corner and shouted, "Oh no, Battalion Commander Li, they have been dispersed." ”
