Volume VIII Fighting the Axe and Shining Heaven 102 Trivial Residence

The iron horses galloped like a stream.

The shield stood like a mountain, and the spear pierced like a forest.

In order to prevent the mount from being afraid, before charging into the formation, Tong Shengyang blinded Ma Yan, and with the help of horsepower, he did not avoid the spear and collided with the shield array.

Only a loud "boom" was heard, and the two shieldmen who intercepted the front fell in response. However, he also hit four or five spears. The pikeman's spears were made of wood, which could not withstand the impact, and the "click" broke one after another. But, though broken, the tip of the spear was made of iron, and one stabbed the man and the four stabbed the mount. It doesn't matter if he stabs someone, he is dressed in fine armor and is not afraid of piercing; The stabbed mount jumped up as the horse rushed into battle, and all four of them were stuck in the belly of the horse.

The war horse screamed, its front legs fell, and it had no strength to move forward, and it stumbled and was about to fall.

said that it was too late, that time was fast, Tong Shengyang danced his spear with one hand before the war horse fell to the ground, protecting his body; Holding the saddle with one hand, he jumped up from the horse, jumped to the ground, and without looking back, shouted, "Horse! "Rush into battle, do not be without horses.

As he shouted, the two soldiers who were holding the horses hurriedly rode to catch up, and responded: "The horses are here!" One of them let go of the reins and sent the reserve horse to him.

Under the protection of other soldiers, Tong Shengyang was calm, stepped on the pedals, pressed the saddle, and jumped on the horse. In the array of ten thousand armies, he dismounted, got on the horse, jumped like flying, and his excellent riding skills can be seen from this. Now that he had changed horses, he pointed his spear forward and ordered: "Go!" "All the horsemen answered their orders and destroyed the enemy's formation.

Yan Jun has been recuperating for a long time; The Yuan army didn't eat for most of the day, and they were all hungry. "People are iron, food is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic." No matter how good the troops are, no matter how tenacious their fighting spirit is, if they don't eat, their combat effectiveness will not be able to rise. Moreover, not to mention that the Yan army is all cavalry, and the Yuan army is all foot soldiers! It's getting even more difficult to handle.

In less than half an hour, the head of the cavalry was like a bamboo, and the shield array and spear array of the Yuan army had been broken, and it was more than 100 steps deep into its left flank. Tong Shengyang, who was attacking at the forefront, was less than fifty steps away from Bai Zuo's general banner.

……

Yuan Array, Chinese Army.

Lookout.

Sain's red answer suddenly looked at the six directions and listened to the eight directions.

On the right flank, although Chang Yuchun was fierce, he fought for too long, and the Wu army had not eaten and gradually lost his strength; Second, Wang Baobao personally sat in charge, and after beheading several cowardly generals, the Yuan soldiers were afraid of military law, and they did not dare to retreat again.

In other words, it was not easy to turn the situation a little bit from the passive beating, but at this time, he saw the left side retreating one after another, and Tong Shengyang's offensive seemed to be unstoppable, and he was about to kill the hinterland of the left flank! If it is killed in the hinterland, the left flank will be crushed nine times out of ten.

He was unconsciously shocked: "Retreat in vain, our army will be in danger!" ”

Once the left flank is crushed, then the Chinese army; As soon as the Chinese army is defeated, with the courage and vigor of Chang Yuchun, the right flank will definitely not be able to hold it. If all three armies are defeated, they will definitely be defeated.

At the critical juncture, he couldn't even take care of Gao Yanshi of the rear army and Zhao Guo, who had already begun to attack the Chinese army, and hurriedly sent left and right, holding small flags and carrying ring knives, to the left flank formation, and ordered Bai Zuo to hold the head.

……

Left flank, in the array.

Seeing the messenger galloping with a knife, Bai Zuozhu knew that if he didn't fight hard, he would bow down to the military law, so he also hurriedly sent someone to meet him, reported to the messenger, and said: "It's not that you are afraid of war, you want to use your ears!" "Summoned his subordinates to be biased and said, "The swallow thief has been sharp for a long time, and its edge is difficult to be a hard enemy." At this time, the only way to win is to win! ”

All the generals held weapons and asked, "I don't know what the general's plan is?" ”

"Wu thief is brave, at the beginning of the war, Chang Yuchun once beheaded my generals; And then burst into my right flank, which was unstoppable for a time. The swallow thief watching from the wall will definitely boost morale because of this. Moreover, Zhao Guo and Tong Shengyang successively had the victories of Juye, Jinxiang, Shanzhou, and Sheephorn, and the excessive morale will turn into pride. I have heard, 'Victory will be defeated by the lazy'. This is talking about the current swallow thief! ”

"What the general said is very true. It's just that the swallow thief is certainly arrogant; Now, how can our ministry break the thief? ”

"'Shoot the man before the horse, capture the thief before the king'. The thief general Tong Shengyang, the Jurchen little chieftain, I heard that it is in the Yan thief army, known as the two unique horses and archery, and he will be brave and proud of the general, and he has the meaning of despising me. I'll go out on a single ride, go and pick them up, and then lure them in. After being lured into an ambush, Er Cao can be killed together! As long as the thief can be killed first, although the thief army is numerous, the dragons have no leader, and there will be chaos. It's easy to annihilate! ”

Bai Zao lived in the Chahan army, and he was one of the few people who was both civil and military, and he could go into battle to kill the enemy, because he had read books and was quite resourceful. When the generals heard this, they all said in admiration: "The general's clever plan! "If there is no objection, just do so. Waiting for the generals to lay in ambush, Bai Zuo stayed alone and rode alone, and fought with guns.

He galloped to the place where the two armies were fighting, looking for Tong Shengyang's general flag, and saw a general under his banner, not very old, in his early twenties, dressed in white clothes and white armor, with a bright silver gun in his hand, and a white dragon horse under his crotch, all of which were white and very conspicuous. He secretly said in his heart: "I heard that the Jurchens and Goryeo are all white." "Knowing this person, he must have been raised by Tong. Grabbed his mount, raised his gun and shouted: "The white-clothed general on the other side listened, but Tong Shengyang? ”

"It's Naigong."

"Naigong", "your father" means. Swearing.

Tong Shengyang once heard Hong Jixun tell the story of Han Gaozu. Liu Bang scolded people, so it was easy to use this word. Of course, this should be the result of the processing of literati, and if you really want to scold people, you won't say it like this. However, it is because of these two words that people are scolded and scolded "Wen Crepe", like Yang Wanhu and Monk Li, who have never read a book, and they don't know what it means when they hear someone say it, and they don't know when they are scolded, so Tong Shengyang likes it very much, so he takes it and often uses it to call himself.

Yang Wanhu and Monk Li have never read a book, but they have read books in vain, and they have always regarded themselves as "Confucian generals".

He was very polite, he didn't even say the word "thief", and asked, "The white-clothed general is Tong Shengyang"? also called the other party a "general in white", but how could the other party be so rude, the exit was "Naigong"! I couldn't help but think to myself: "It's really a thief, so rude!" It's just that, and I don't know you as well. Heng Lance challenged, and said: "I heard that you are famous for your bravery, and now the two armies will hunt, do you dare to fight with me?" ”

Tong Shengyang looked at it and said: "Under the gun, I don't kill the nameless rats." Who are you? ”

Another sentence of "Naigong", and also added a "nameless rat". Bai Zuozhu held back his anger and replied: "I am a white Zuozhu of ten thousand households." ”

Tong Shengyang suddenly realized: "It turns out that this group of Rakshasa ghosts is your subordinate!" He hurried forward and shouted, "Hugh go, eat me a shot." The spear stabbed out and went straight to the door of the white face. Bai Zuozhu laughed, and said in his heart: "In the end, the Jurchen is barbaric, reckless and unwise. I'm in charge! "Don't fight with them, fight the horses and turn away.

Why would Tong Shengyang let him go? Urging the horse to chase.

One of the two fled, the other chased, and circled around the formation several times. Wherever they passed, both the enemy and the enemy and their soldiers moved out of the way, making room for each other's lords. Tong Shengyang is the chief general of the cavalry, and the war horse he rides is carefully selected, which is better than the white trivial, and gradually pursues him. When there was a difference of about three or four horses, Tong Shengyang put his spear horizontally, set up a bow and arrow, and shot an arrow.

Bai Zuozhu heard the sound of the wind behind his ears, and knew that there must be an arrow coming, and at this time it was too late to turn back, so he quickly hooked his head and shrank his shoulders, first protected the vital point, and then turned sideways to the right. A sharp arrow grazed his ear and shot past, and he was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat, thinking: "After all, the barbarian chieftain, what a horseman!" Taken aback, he didn't waste any more time, tightened his legs on the horse's belly, turned the horse's head, and led Tong Shengyang straight to the ambush.

Tong Shengyang didn't know what to do, put down his bow and arrows, took the spear again, and just chased after him.

His horse was fast, and gradually left his own soldiers far behind, and he didn't go far, when he suddenly heard the sound of drums, and seven or eight Yuan army generals and colonels came out of the ranks of soldiers.

Some of these generals wielded spears and some wielded axes; He who has a bow, and he who wields a knife. Mostly on horseback. In the meantime, there was another person, full of beards and as strong as an ox, but he was a step-by-step general, with a glaive knife in his hand. "Glaive knife", is one of the "eight colors of the knife", as early as the Song Dynasty, it is a standard weapon commonly used in the army, the head of the knife is broad and long, the length of the blade, about two-fifths of the blade, the shape is like the glaive, so it gets its name. This kind of knife can be used for cavalry and foot combat; When fighting on foot, it is mostly used against cavalry.

But seeing this general, he was so bold, facing the head of the horse that Tong Shengyang galloped over, he did not avoid it, held the knife forward, and shouted in his mouth: "Liu Sandao is here, and the thief will not be awarded!" It turned out to be the number one fierce general under the command of Bai Zuozhu, the famous Liu Jia, because of his outstanding knife skills, therefore, the army called "Liu Sandao".

With a shout, he raised the Glaive Knife and galloped forward. The Glaive is usually used by first cutting the leg of the enemy's horse, and then fighting the enemy's horse's chest.

Although Tong Shengyang is impulsive, but he is not stupid, as soon as he sees these generals come out, he immediately knows that he has fallen into the trap, but the soldiers are far behind, and at the same time the mount is galloping, and there is no way to change direction immediately.

Liu Sandao didn't let it, and he didn't hide. Galloping horses against fierce generals, spears to kill big swords.

By the mistake, the two had already met. A good Liu Sandao, it is really tough, at the last moment, he suddenly let go of his body, and the long knife slashed down, and slashed at the leg of Tong Shengyang's mount. Tong Shengyang kicked the war horse lightly with his heel, and before his long knife fell, one of the horse's legs kicked out; The spear in his hand also pierced out at the same time.

The horse's leg just kicked Liu Sandao in the chest, he screamed, spit out a mouthful of blood, but still refused to retreat, still bravely swung the knife and slashed. At this moment, Tong Shengyang's spear arrived again, unbiased and stabbed him in the cheek. Pierced from the left cheek and from the back of the right head. Pull out your gun and come out with a trail of blood and brains. Liu Sandao was silent, the knife in his hand fell, and the person fell to the ground.

The two of them were wrong, and the time was fast. Only fought a hand, and when the generals of the Yuan army went to see it again, Liu Sandao had already been killed, and they were all shocked. Most people hesitated.

But there is another person, who is also a step general, and he also uses a knife, but it is not a glaive knife, but *. * As early as the Song Dynasty, it became one of the standard weapons in the army, which evolved from the horizontal knife of the Tang Dynasty. This sword, unlike the swords used by cavalry, was intended for foot soldiers.

"Chopping horses" and "chopping horses", as the name suggests, are used to kill the war horses of the cavalry. The word "chopping horse" is the old name of the "chopping horse sword" used in the Western Han Dynasty. "Chopping the Horse Sword", that is, attaching a long handle to a large, double-edged sword. * It's roughly the same, more than three feet long, sharp Mobi, "the sharp weapon of the battle array".

With this general of *, his prestige in the army of Bai Zuozhu is only under Liu Sandao. At this time, seeing Liu Sandao killed, he was not only not afraid, but overjoyed. I have long been unconvinced, why can Liu Sandao be on his head? Running with a knife, he caught Tong Shengyang, rushed forward in front of him, and shouted: "The thief will be rampant!" I'm ....... ”

Without waiting for him to report his name, Tong Shengyang had already rushed to the front, using a spear, and picked it up with a light pick. The horses were fast, and the two staggered by.

Tong Shengyang still refused to give up, and even turned around and stabbed the person's right ear, penetrating through the past and penetrating through the left ear. Drew the gun and turned around, and a trail of blood and brains came out of the tip of the gun. The horse ran less than ten paces, and killed two brave generals in a row. Bai Zuo stopped losing color, hurriedly urged the rest to step forward, and sent soldiers to come and surround him.

Tong Shengyang was alone in the siege, but he regarded the number of generals and hundreds of yuan as if there was nothing, his face did not change, he controlled the horse to run, and dared to block the former, whether he was riding a horse or fighting on foot, he was stabbed to death with a gun.

It's just that although he is brave, he has fallen into the siege and gradually slowed down. As soon as the horse is slow, it is difficult to avoid the enemy's arrows and weapons, and it is successively hit by arrows and swords.

With his excellent armor, he was fine for the time being, but his mount could no longer hold on. Without a horse, he was deeply encircled, and even if Xiang Yu was reincarnated, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape death. At this moment, there was chaos outside the encirclement. Looking back, it was his own soldiers who finally killed him. Military law: "The Lord will die, and all his own soldiers will be beheaded". No matter how it was a death, his own soldiers did not dare not fight to rescue him, and he opened a bloody road.

Tong Shengyang jumped off the horse, shouted again, and shouted: "Malai!" ”

The two soldiers who had drawn his horses were killed, and the other soldiers arrived, and they jumped off their horses and put their mounts on them.

Tong Shengyang turned over and got on the horse, although the soldiers who rescued him killed all the way, only a dozen of them could survive to his side, and everyone was still colored, all of them were injured, but in the midst of hundreds of people, he had no fearless look, looked forward to himself, and said with a smile to the soldier who sacrificed the horse: "Anu, don't be afraid." Let's see that Naigong kills the captive and takes the horse for you! ”

I saw that Bai Zor was living under the escort of dozens of soldiers, and was directing the formation on the left.

He suddenly hit his horse, galloped over, picked and stabbed with a spear, killed several people in a row, killed and scattered the pawns, and suddenly, he had come to the front of Bai Zuozhuo. Bai Zuozhu was defenseless, hurriedly took out the gun, but before he could stab it, he suddenly felt a pain in his right shoulder, but he had already been shot by Tong Shengyang, and he was in a hurry, not caring about decency, so he hurriedly rolled down from the horse, rolled several times, and crawled with a roll, and escaped more than ten steps away.

When Tong Shengyang went to kill again, he saw that he had been rescued by his own soldiers, and he was not in a hurry to kill, so he didn't chase after him at the moment, laughed, took his mount that was left in place, turned back to his team, handed it to the pro-soldier just now, and said, "How?" I told you to get a horse, and I gave you a horse, but did I coax you? ”

"The general's bravery!"

"Humph!" Tong Shengyang was self-satisfied, looked around him, looked at the pawn again, and thought in his heart, "How can you let Dongwu Chang Boren be in front of the beauty!" And also look at my Haidong generals. After passing the majesty, he thought, "The enemy is outnumbered, and it is not easy to break it." It's better to return to the main formation for the time being, and it's not too late to bring the brigade to kill the prisoners. ”

Just as he was about to turn his horse and retreat, he heard another commotion, and a member of the Yan General led the cavalry to break through the encirclement of the Yuan army, and killed him, and he was still far away from Tong Shengyang, so he shouted with a drum: "General, Zuo Cheng has an order!" ”
