Chapter 803: A Quiet Battlefield
"Kill!" Picking up Fang Tian's painting halberd, Lu Bu let out a loud shout, and rushed towards the Huainan army that was surrounded outside the palace.
A group of Huainan troops found that Lu Bu was leading the army to rush over, and hurriedly turned back to meet the enemy, raising their shields and lining up a neat defensive formation.
The tiger and tiger who drew Fang Tian's halberd dance were vigorous, and Lu Bu's legs tightly clamped the horse's belly, and the horse crashed into a group of Huainan troops holding shields in a defensive formation.
Seeing Lu Bu rushing over, several Huainan soldiers hurriedly raised their shields in an attempt to stop him.
Before the war horses reached the front of this group of Huainan troops, the Heavenly Painting Halberd in Lu Bu's hand slashed out a half-arc forward.
The heavy halberd smashed on the shields of several Huainan troops, and several strong men were unable to resist the heavy blow of the halberd.
The shield that had been hit by the halberd at the beginning was even swept into shattered sawdust and scattered.
The Huainan Army, who was holding the shield, was also cut off at the elbow at the same time that the shield was swept by the halberd.
The Huainan army that was swept after him was desperately trying to block the halberd, but Lu Bu's strength was not comparable to them, and although the shields of several Huainan troops were not broken, they all let out a muffled snort, and the whole person flew backwards.
The Huainan Army, which was swept away by Lu Bu's halberd, flew backwards and knocked over a piece of Huainan Army officers and soldiers, and a big gap suddenly appeared in the tight formation.
As soon as Lu Bu entered the Huainan army, Zhao Yun immediately brandished his spear and rushed towards another group of Huainan troops.
The spear suddenly stepped forward, deeply piercing into the shield held by a Huainan army, Zhao Yun shouted, and raised his two arms to the side, picking the shield of the Huainan army aside.
The Huainan army, whose shield was flown away, opened his eyes and took two sharp steps back, trying to avoid Zhao Yun.
But behind him stood a wall of Huainan soldiers with swords and shields, and when he retreated, he happened to retreat to the tip of the spear of one of the Huainan soldiers.
The Huainan soldier behind him who was holding a short spear and a big shield didn't expect him to retreat backwards, and when he realized that something was wrong and wanted to withdraw the short spear, the back of the retreating Huainan soldier had already hit the tip of his spear.
With a soft "poof", the short spear pierced the leather armor of the Huainan soldier and pierced deeply into his spine.
There was a sudden pain in his back, and the retreating Huainan army hurriedly stopped his pace, but his reaction was too slow, and the short spear had already pierced into his body.
Turning his head and looking back, the Huainan soldier fell down with an unwilling face.
Dead people on the battlefield, that's normal, just look around the entire battlefield, like he died so badly, I'm afraid there will be no second one.
A shot picked off the shield of the Huainan army, Zhao Yun rushed into the Huainan army array, and the spear in his hand stabbed left and right, but in an instant, he overturned a large number of Huainan army soldiers.
Lu Bu and Zhao Yun rushed left and right in the Huainan army, as if entering a no-man's land, the rise of the two of them killing, Gao Shun and Yulin, Hu Ben and the two guards and horses have also rushed to the front.
With a violent impact, the mounts of Yulin and Tiger Ben Erwei slammed into the array of the Huainan army, and hundreds of Huainan troops standing at the forefront could not withstand the powerful impact and were knocked into the air.
The soldiers of the second guard collided with the Huainan army array, and everyone struggled to wave the Pu knife in their hands, slashing at the Huainan army in front of them.
The soldiers of the Second Guard, who have undergone strict training and experienced the baptism of war, are naturally different from ordinary Qin troops, although they are in the chaotic battlefield, but every time they slash out, they are directly attacking the key points of the Huainan army.
The heavy infantry of the Qin army, which was closely following the second guard, also rushed up at this time, holding shields and swords, and shouted and pounced on the Huainan army.
Although the streets outside the palace were a little wider than in other places, after all, they were not as wide as the wilderness, and the two armies were still slightly more crowded when they fought.
The heavy infantry of the Qin army, which was following the second guard and rushing towards the Huainan army, could not directly collide with the enemy, and could only pass between the soldiers of the second guard on war horses and pounce on the Huainan army.
Due to the narrowness of the streets, the Huainan army couldn't see how many Qin troops rushed towards them, and they only felt red, and there was no end in sight.
The Huainan army that was blocking the front fell in pieces under the onslaught of the Qin army, and the Huainan army behind immediately followed up to fight with the Qin army.
Lu Bu and others led the Qin army to rush to the periphery of the palace, and Tai Shici, who had already entered the palace, led 30,000 Qin troops to resist the counterattack of the Huainan army.
Since Qiao Rui led the army to support the palace, Tai Shici has been fighting with him for more than 100 years.
Although Qiao Rui didn't have the upper hand at all in the fight with Tai Shi Ci, after fighting for a long time, Tai Shi Ci couldn't help but be secretly frightened.
Since the Qin army went south, Tai Shi Ci had never met a decent opponent at all, and even Ji Ling couldn't fight him for so long.
The double halberd stabbed out towards Qiao Rui's neck, and when Qiao Rui took two steps back, picked up the big knife and slashed at Tai Shi Ci, Tai Shi Ci twisted his body, retreated to the side, and a short halberd slashed towards Qiao Rui's arm like lightning.
The two fought, Tai Shi Ci always wanted to take Qiao Rui's life directly, but Qiao Rui's big knife danced, as if a solid copper wall was formed in front of him, no matter how Tai Shi Ci attacked, it was not close to him.
If this is consumed, the morale of the Huainan army will not be reduced, and the Qin army will definitely have a lot of casualties, even if it finally breaks through the palace, the price will be extremely heavy.
Withdrawing a step and slashing the halberd towards Qiao Rui's arm, it was Tai Shici who made a temporary adjustment, he had given up directly killing Qiao Rui, but wanted to hurt him first, and then kill him.
Focusing only on the vital points of protection, Qiao Rui did not guard against Tai Shi Ci cutting the halberd towards his arm.
The halberd slashed, Qiao Rui only felt a pain in his arm, snorted, and subconsciously took two steps back.
At the same time as he retreated these two steps backwards, Tai Shi Ci had already stepped up to you, holding a halberd in each hand, and stabbed him fiercely in the neck.
The halberd stabbed into the neck, and Qiao Rui hurriedly used the uninjured arm to hold the big knife to block.
The big knife is heavy, not as dexterous as a halberd, if he uses two hands, he will not have any suspense in blocking Tai Shici's blow.
But one of his arms was injured, and he couldn't use his strength, how could he block Tai Shici's blow with a big knife in one hand?
The halberd slammed on the big knife, Qiao Rui only felt that his palm was numb, and the big knife was suddenly picked aside by Tai Shi Ci.
The heavy broadsword rolled and flew to the side, the tip of the knife hitting the ground with a crisp metallic sound.
Before Qiao Rui could come back to his senses, a halberd was already on his neck.
With a halberd on his neck, Qiao Rui was stunned for a moment, squinted at the halberd, and asked Tai Shici, "Why don't you kill me?" ”
"You are also a fierce general, and you can't bear to do harm!" Placing a halberd on Qiao Rui's neck, Tai Shici said to him: "The King of Qin is thirsty for talent now, why don't you give up Yuan Shu to serve the King of Qin......"
"Huh!" Before Tai Shi Ci finished speaking, Qiao Rui smiled bitterly, looked at him and said, "As a general, you can only die on the battlefield!" The general has already defeated me, how can he be so humiliated? ”
Hearing from Qiao Rui's words that he was unwilling to surrender, Tai Shici showed a trace of regret on his face, sighed lightly and said: "Since the general is unwilling to serve the King of Qin, he will no longer force each other!" Good go, General! ”
As soon as the words fell, the halberd in Tai Shici's other hand suddenly stabbed towards Qiao Rui's heart.
Poor Qiao Rui, she didn't take any precautions, and stood upright, as if waiting for Tai Shi Ci to kill him.
The sharp halberd pierced Qiao Rui's armor and plunged deep into his heart.
Qiao Rui's eyes widened, staring at Tai Shi Ci, until Tai Shi Ci pulled out the halberd from his body, and then fell straight down.
Looking down at Qiao Rui's body, Tai Shi Ci shook his head regretfully, but he didn't leave the whole body for him because of his pity.
For the Huainan Army, Qiao Rui's head is the most effective killing weapon to prompt them to surrender, on the battlefield, the soldiers on both sides are still bleeding, Tai Shi Ci will definitely not do the kind of thing to sit and watch more soldiers fall in order to leave a whole corpse for one person.
Holding a double halberd, Tai Shici squatted in front of Qiao Rui's corpse and said to the corpse: "Let's borrow the general's head for use, wait for it, and the last general will sew it up in front of the general!" ”
As he spoke, he had already picked up the halberd and slashed it at Qiao Rui's neck.
The halberd slashed Qiao Rui's neck, and with a splash of blood spurting out, a good head was cut off by Tai Shi Ci.
Cutting off Qiao Rui's head, Tai Shici grabbed his head with one hand, stood up and shouted to the Huainan army who was fighting: "Qiao Rui is dead!" Do you still have to resist? ”
The Huainan army, who was only concerned about fighting with the Qin army, heard Tai Shici's shout, and turned their eyes to him.
When the soldiers of the Huainan Army saw Tai Shici holding Qiao Rui's head in his hand, they gradually stopped the movements in their hands.
The main general is dead, and now the Qin army has also broken through the city, even if they want to escape, I am afraid that there is no way to escape.
There were only two paths in front of them, one was to surrender to the Qin army, and the other was to fight the Qin army to the death here.
In the eyes of many Huainan army officers, surrender may be able to live, but it is not certain that the Qin army will not slaughter them like pigs and dogs.
Knowing in their hearts what surrender might mean, although the soldiers of the Huainan Army stopped fighting with the Qin army, they did not put down their weapons.
The Huainan army in the palace temporarily stopped fighting with the Qin army, and the Huainan army outside the palace also felt that something was wrong, and gradually stopped chopping and chopping.
The Huainan army gradually stopped, and Lu Bu, who led the army to fight, saw this, and also raised an arm to stop the Qin army's slashing.
Inside and outside Yuan Shu's palace, there was a strange phenomenon, two armies that were enemies of each other were intertwined, but neither of them made a move, as if everyone had suddenly been frozen by the spell cast by the immortals.
Silence! An endless silence spread outside Yuan Shu's palace, and in the air with a thick smell of blood, only a few snorts of war horses could be heard occasionally, and other than that, there was no other sound.
