Regarding the strength of the Seventh Legion, Li Dian naturally didn't know. He had already arranged for 20,000 men to set up a defensive position.

Of the 20,000 men, there were 5,000 archers, 10,000 pikemen, 3,000 broadswordmen, and 2,000 shieldmen. He was confident that with such strength, he would be able to fight with the Seventh Legion for a while. He got new information from the scouts, that is, General Cao Hong came behind the Seventh Army with an army of 100,000, and at that time he could bring 80,000 main forces to attack on both sides.

Even if Zhang Liao's Seventh Legion despised him so much, he would have to pay the price of blood.

Li Dian's idea is good, and the layout is also appropriate. If the strength of the two sides is equal, this is a good means, but the unfortunate thing is that he is facing the Seventh Legion, the elite force in the Celestial Empire's army, and the general of the Seventh Legion who has survived countless bloody battles, so naturally such a strategy is not enough.

Just like the 20,000 army, when they came into contact with the 150,000 troops of the Seventh Legion on the first day of the new year, there were only 5,000 archers to threaten people, shooting and wounding more than 1,000 cavalry of the Seventh Legion, but then Pound, as the vanguard general, led the army to the front of the 20,000 infantry, and then there was a one-sided massacre.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a massacre. Most of the cavalry of the Seven Legions are soldiers of a hundred battles, and veterans like this, once they go to the battlefield, they have a lot of ability to save their lives. They even know what to do to save themselves and kill their enemies.

It is not easy to single out a veteran like this for a hundred battles, let alone the number of people who have reached more than 100,000. So when the two armies fight, the winner is decided.

The soldiers of the Seventh Legion, who had experienced a hundred battles, used their experience to successfully dodge the bows and arrows from afar, and then when they were about to kill in front of the 20,000 infantry of the Wei army, they had already picked up the bows and arrows on their backs one by one and began to counterattack.

Compared with the Wei army, which was a flurry of arrows, the bows and arrows in the hands of the generals of the Seventh Legion did seem to have eyes, and every time they shot an arrow, they could see that a Wei soldier was shot to the ground.

With such an accurate archery technique, and tens of thousands of people firing arrows at the same time, you can imagine what will happen. It can be seen with the naked eye that the rows of Wei soldiers were shot to the ground before they could meet the enemy, as if a gust of wind was surging through the yellow sand, which was completely the momentum of pushing the mountains and the sea.

In addition to the two thousand shield soldiers of the Wei army, the infantry of the Wei army relied on the weapons in their hands to lose less, and the other troops, even including those archers, were within the range of the bows and arrows of the Seventh Legion.

At this time, Pound and the cavalry rushed in front of the infantry, and with the sudden stabbing of the broadswords and spears in their hands, blood flew everywhere and corpses were everywhere, forming a scene that looked similar to a massacre.

The 20,000 infantry, who had planned to hold back the Seventh Army for at least half a day, were wiped out in an hour, of which more than 8,000 were shot and killed, more than 3,000 were killed by swords and guns, more than 4,000 were wounded, and the other 5,000 surrendered.

It was not that the soldiers of the Wei army were spineless, in the face of such an inverted slaughter situation, they really had no power to fight back, except to be killed or surrendered, and under the instinct of survival, they chose the latter.

When the news came from the front line that all the 20,000 infantry five miles away had been wiped out, Li Dian, who was in the tent, clearly showed a look of disbelief on his face.

20,000 infantry, even if it is 20,000 pigs, it would be difficult to destroy them in an hour, but this has become a fact.

It's just that Li Dian was only stunned for a moment, and a desperate look appeared on his face. He knew that he had underestimated the Seventh Legion, and that the price might have to be his life. So he said to the generals in the tent very seriously, "The bravery of the Seventh Legion is somewhat unexpected to me, but I am really not afraid, even if I choose to join the army, I thought that one day I would lose my life here, so I will go to fight with the Seventh Legion now, and I believe that everyone will make the same choice as me." ”

"Swear to follow the general." All the generals in the tent spoke in unison.

Although they were also frightened by the bravery of the Seventh Legion, it was just that Li Dian still had to fight, and as a general, he naturally had to obey military orders.

After Li Dian unified the thoughts of the generals, he took the big sword and walked out of the tent.

Just when Li Dian just walked out of the big tent, he could already see patches of smoke and dust coming from a distance, which was the dust and smoke generated by the cavalry killed by Pang De, the vanguard general of the Seventh Legion.

"All the generals got on their horses, and the soldiers took up their arms and charged me." Li Dian didn't hesitate for a moment, and shouted while trying to climb towards the war horse.

The other generals also got on their horses to prepare for a battle after hearing the order, but another figure did appear in front of Li Dian at a very fast speed, and then the spear in his hand waved, forming a phantom and smashing forward.

No one thought that there would be someone who would be unfavorable to General Li Dian, waiting for the other generals to find out, it was too late, Li Dian had already closed his eyes at this time and fell into Bu Qi's arms, looking like that, it was obvious that he was knocked unconscious.

"Buqi, what are you going to do? Can't you rebel? Seeing Bu Qi's sudden behavior, the other generals were shocked, and then they didn't know who shouted such a sentence.

With the shout, two personal soldiers belonging to Li Dian rushed over with knives, and they wanted to take down the step and save the main general.

Facing the two sword-wielding Wei soldiers who rushed in, Bu Qi did not hesitate at all, and the spear in his hand flashed, and then the two good heads flew into the air first, and then fell to the ground and rolled down, forming a field of blood.

"Whoever goes up dies." The step that had done this shouted loudly.

He just wanted to save Li Dian's life, because he knew that in the face of the elite Seventh Legion of the Celestial Empire, they would just be sent to death if they rushed up. And in order not to make this result happen, he could only stun Li Dian first, as for those Wei soldiers who wanted to embarrass him, he would not be the slightest polite. He is only grateful to Li Dian in his heart, and he has no friendship for others.

Bu Qi killed two Wei soldiers in a row, so that other people who wanted to do it had to think carefully.

Just now, the speed of Bu Qi's gun was so fast that no one in the scene could find the trajectory of its gun, so even if they rushed up, they were just killing themselves.

No one moved, Bu Qi couldn't help but let go of his heart, but the right hand holding the gun did not let go in the slightest, on the contrary, he kept his eyes on the people nearby, he had already decided that if anyone rushed up at this time, he would kill whom.

Buqi's approach surprised everyone, and it also enabled his strategy to be carried out smoothly. And when the two sides confronted each other, the Seventh Army had already passed far and near, because there was no command from the general, and the soldiers below did not know what to do. Seeing that the enemy was approaching, some timid soldiers chose to surrender, while others simply threw down their weapons and fled.

As a vanguard general, Pang De thought that he would come here to fight the Wei army, and he also wanted to understand Li Dian's power, but he never expected that he would rush to the front of the Chinese army's big tent with the army, and he didn't encounter any decent resistance, which couldn't help but make him feel a little unpleasant, and when he came to the big tent, he found that there were so many Wei generals here, and they seemed to be facing something.

"What's going on?" As soon as Pang De appeared here, he asked, and looked at Bu Qi's body with some suspicious eyes, and he also found that many people's eyes were focused on the position of this man.

"Who are you?" Bu Qiu was very happy when he saw Pang De appear, but he didn't know what the identity of the other party was, so this was a bit of a word.

"I am the deputy commander of the Seventh Legion of the Celestial Empire, Pang De, who are you?" Pound knew that perhaps the man in front of him would tell him what was going on here.

"It turned out to be General Pang, my name is Buqi, a native of Huaiyin in Linhuai, who has been practicing martial arts since childhood, and has long heard of the strength of the Celestial Empire, so he wanted to contribute to it, but he almost died because of the treacherous scheme, and then he was rescued by General Li Dian, and then he became a commander in the Wei army. This time, when he learned that he was fighting against the Celestial Empire, he knew that he was invincible, so he wanted to persuade General Li Dian to surrender, but he knew that his words could not be fulfilled, so he stunned the main general and waited for the arrival of the Seventh Army to stabilize the situation. ”

Bu Qi said everything that happened loudly, and then looked at Pang De and said: "Even if General Pang is here, Bu Qi can surrender, but there is a reluctant request, that is, the general must leave General Li Dian's life." ”

Hearing Bu Qi say that he had long wanted to join the Celestial Empire, Pang De's face showed a trace of satisfaction, and even he thought that it was this person's credit that the battle went so smoothly, and he could ask for credit for it after the incident. But when he heard the last sentence and asked him to spare Li Dian's life, he said with a displeased face, "Buqi, I can see your credit, but the matter of how to deal with Li Dian is really not something you and I can say, in this way, you send Li Dian immediately, and I will guarantee your glory." ”

In Pang De's view, he affirmed the credit of Bu Qi, a general of the Wei army like Li Dian, how to deal with it is far from his master, and even the commander of the army Zhang Liao may not be able to make his own opinions, everything must be reported to the emperor Zhang Chao to make arrangements.

Pang De promised what he could do within his scope, but he didn't think that this answer was not satisfactory to Bu Qi, and when he heard that Li Dian didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he directly shook his head and said: "That's the case, I can't hand over General Li Dian, and I ask General Pang for forgiveness." ”
