Chapter 14: Dead!
On the afternoon of April 25, the 32nd year of Jiaqing in the Great Jin Dynasty (2716), after running all the way, more than 500 soldiers led by Lu Xiu finally arrived near the edge of the battlefield less than 30 miles away from the battlefield of Dongze City.
At this point, both the red-robed rebel army and the imperial army where Lu Xiu belonged began to have scouts patrolling and collecting the situation, so just after arriving near the edge of the battlefield, Lu Xiu was successfully discovered by the scouts sent by the imperial army, and the dark tide gradually began to surge under a calm statement.
"It is estimated that the imperial army will attack soon, you take your soldiers to rest in place and prepare to recover their strength, but the soldiers who are resting in place are not allowed to unload their armor and put down their weapons, so they still have to be careful."
"You must all know the harm of a sudden attack to morale, so you will first talk to the commanders below you, and don't let the entire team of soldiers collapse because they see the attacking army."
Lu Xiu watched the scouts of the imperial army in the distance drive their horses away as soon as they found out their traces, knowing that something was wrong.
Lu Xiu, who knew that something was wrong, looked back at the soldiers on his side who were obviously a little tired because of the rush just now, waved his hand to beckon several hundred generals in the team, and began to tell them one by one to lead his soldiers to rest in place and recover their strength to deal with the upcoming battle.
"Yes! Checkmate. ”
Five different responses sounded in Lu Xiu's ears at the same time, Lu Xiu nodded with satisfaction when he saw this, and said with a chuckle:
"When you get to the vicinity of Dongze City, everyone should pay a little attention to the title, even if it is a thousand generals, the title of general is deserved, not to mention that I am a small master of five hundred people."
"When I arrived outside Dongze City, there were people everywhere who were bigger than you Lu Commander and my officials, in order to avoid causing dissatisfaction among those big people in the army, you just call me Commander."
"As long as everyone performs well in the next period of battle, everyone can be promoted, and everyone has the possibility of becoming a general in the future, everyone is encouraged."
After saying these words, Lu Xiu smiled and glanced at Hu Ze, who was full of light, and Li Yinsu, who was beside him with a pouting and did not speak, did not say more, and directly took the lead and sat cross-legged on the ground and began to recuperate.
When the hundred-man generals saw that their commanders had begun to rest in place, one by one they stopped talking, turned around and returned to their ranks and began to explain the matter to their commanders, instructing them to lead their respective soldiers to begin to recuperate in situ according to the requirements.
In the blink of an eye, a quarter of an hour passed, and the sound of galloping horses' hooves gradually sounded from far and near, and the soldiers who were resting in place began to feel a gentle tremor from the ground below them.
"Ready!"
"Array!"
Even if they had been prepared, as the sound of horses' hooves gradually sounded from far and near, the hundreds of generals under Lu Xiu couldn't help but start to look gloomy one by one.
Cavalry!
And it's a cavalry of more than three hundred people!
In the face of such an overwhelming force, even the hundred generals who had prepared in their hearts just now couldn't help but tremble in their hearts at this time, from ancient times to the present, cavalry has an overwhelming advantage over infantry.
If the number of people on your side is more than 1,000, it is fine, but now the strength comparison between the two sides is only more than 500 soldiers against about 300 cavalry, such a battle with a huge disparity in strength, anyone will be desperate when they meet it.
The horn in the army began to "woo" loudly, and the five hundred soldiers who were ordered to lie down and rest just now and could only drink water and rub their shoulders to replenish their strength were forcibly organized by their respective commanders, even though they were afraid one by one, but simply this group of soldiers did not flee on the spot after some time after some siege battles and arduous training process some time ago.
"Everyone, we are all rebel bandits, and all of us are brave people who have dipped in blood."
"If you run away when you meet, everyone will not be able to escape a dead word, but as long as everyone can withstand the first wave of cavalry impact, the support of our red-robed rebel army will come soon, and every reward and good wine and meat will be indispensable for everyone at that time."
"Running away is death, charging may still be alive! Brethren, is there still blood? ”
Lu Xiu's face was flushed, his muscles were violent, and he stood in front of the team and roared backwards with a hoarse voice, his cold eyes were jumping with flame-like excitement, and the non-commissioned officers and officers behind him who were swept by his gaze were gradually stirred by him.
But Lu Xiu's best candidates for soldiers in his previous life were those honest people, due to the prevalence of martial arts in this life, every soldier who was not a rabble was far beyond ordinary people in terms of physical fitness and martial arts, and his blood was extraordinarily strong, especially most of the candidates in Lu Xiu's army were bandits and criminals before, and at this time, most of them were encouraged by Lu Xiu's words and couldn't help but dispel the idea of escaping, and once again had the courage to fight for their lives in the depths of their hearts.
The sound of horses' hooves grew louder and louder, but within a minute or two, a large black cavalry galloped in from a distance, carrying with them puffs of dust and sand.
Facing the cavalry in front of him, the desire to kill in Lu Xiu's heart became more and more boiling, he turned over on his horse with a roar, pulled out the two short spears that were rarely used in the horse's bag, and put them together into a spear of more than two meters with a bang, and rushed straight towards the opposite side with a desperate gallop.
"The man is as dead as iron, try one hand and make up for the cracks in the sky!"
"Those who are not afraid of death, and those who have eggs, all rush with Lao Tzu! Kill his mother and leave no piece of armor! ”
Lu Xiu led the brothers behind him to launch a desperate charge directly towards the cavalry rushing in front of him, Lu Xiu was crazy on the outside, calm on the inside, he fiercely waved the fine iron spear in his hand, which weighed more than 20 catties, and easily pierced the first cavalry close to him in front of him.
Behind Lu Xiu, five hundred generals with extraordinary strength followed closely, and at the same time as Lu Xiu drew his gun, they also waved their blades one by one and fiercely cut down one enemy after another beside them.
"The opposing general's is in the rear of the cavalry! The reason why I killed so smoothly along the way was because the other party was deliberately waiting for us! ”
"We're the ones we're hunting for!"
Lu Xiu led the five hundred generals beside him all the way like a bamboo, chopping over twenty or thirty approaching cavalry one after another, all the way into the central part of this cavalry team, seeing that the five hundred people beside him, including Li Yinsu, were becoming more and more excited, and Lu Xiu, who knew that something was wrong, suddenly flashed a spiritual light in his mind that made his hair stand on end.
Lu Xiu, who was shocked by this flash of inspiration in his mind, couldn't help but look back at the team behind him for the first time, and this time he found that unlike himself and the others, the five hundred ordinary soldiers who followed them and rushed straight up to meet them were easily slaughtered by this group of cavalry after a short impact.
Scarlet blood flowers continued to bloom on their bodies, and there were terrible screams in their mouths, some of which cursed themselves, some cursed the cavalry, and some meaningless babbles before they died.
The group of soldiers who were tragically harvested were like fat pigs slaughtered in a slaughterhouse, one by one falling under the butcher's knife, although there were occasionally some successful counterattacks on the death, but the proportion was quite small in comparison.
"What a hunting net that has been prepared a long time ago, what a lore game!"
Lu Xiu, who was cold in his heart, couldn't care about the life and death of the group of fellow soldiers behind him, he roared angrily and continued to lead the five hundred generals beside him to continue to charge frantically!
The matter has come to this point, even if he knows that he may be in a dead end in front of him, all Lu Xiu can do and should do is fight to the death.
"Death to those who stand in the way!"
Lu Xiu's red eyes were the yellow Puma horse under him once, riding across the war horse under him that was rushing wildly because of the severe pain, and rushed forward, in the process of charging, Lu Xiu's hand was like a dragon, constantly piercing and harvesting the life of the cavalry in front of him who tried to block him, and the five hundred generals behind Lu Xiu obviously knew that they had fallen to death, and they also fought hard for Lu Xiu to parry the cavalry blades that stabbed at him next to him.
Thanks to the previous period of stay, after completing several random tasks released by the player system, Lu Xiu successfully upgraded to another level, and successfully raised the combat power that was already close to that of a martial artist to the level of a quenching martial artist.
Relying on the crazy sprint of the war horse under him and his own extraordinary strength, coupled with the desperate protection of the five hundred generals beside him, after a short period of sprint fighting, Du Xiu finally tore a small gap from this group of dense cavalry, successfully penetrated the enemy formation and escaped, away from this dead end.
After fighting all the way, Lu Xiu ignored the five or six churning blood mouths on his body, and planned to laugh out loud to vent the churning emotions in his heart.
It's just that when he looked back, Lu Xiu's heart instantly cooled down.
"Li Yinsu, the general of the hundreds, my junior sister!"
Lu Xiu's eyes were split, and his expression was hideous and excited, looking at Hu Ze, the only one of the hundred people beside him, and roared angrily, and he wanted to raise his gun and go down.
