Chapter 563: The Great War II
But it was too late, and the order of the opposing coach was clearly audible, "The knife and axe hand is in place, cut the horse's leg!" ”
In the darkness, the axes and knives were raised high, and rushed up from the nearest ship offshore, and when they saw the horses, they were cut down, and the horses were frightened, and fled in all directions, trampling through the crowd, and the procession, which had been relatively orderly, was in an instant chaos.
The white arrow shouted at the top of his voice, "Spearmen in position, quickly, don't let the enemy come ashore!" "The sword and axe hands don't matter, the number is small, and if they don't get angry, they will always be wiped out, as long as they guard against the main force on the river, they still have hope of winning this battle.
This time there was a real scream, just behind him, the frightened horse was still running hard, he couldn't bear it anymore, and stabbed the horse with his sword, and the scene was quiet.
Before he could come to his senses, the sound of "whooshing" breaking through the air passed his ears, it was the archers of the enemy army, and they began to attack in earnest.
"Shield formation!" It was Guan Xiong who was calling the shots.
Panicked and noisy footsteps rang out, and the shield army formed a group and pushed forward, blocking everyone behind.
But the enemy's arrows did not last long, and when the rain of arrows had passed, everyone heard the sound of neat and hurried footsteps on the river, and the groups of men and horses leaped to the shore as quickly as if they had come out of the darkness, and with spears and swords in their hands, they killed people at sight, and cut down their horses......
Bai Changjian's face was difficult to see, he heard the sound of iron chains before, he knew that this battle was more auspicious and less, Murong Mian did not use a boat to transport his army, because the speed was too slow, the force could not continue, and he could only send it to death, so he used iron chains to connect the ships to form a trestle, so that his main force could attack in one go, in this way, the short hand, he lost the time and place, and could not get any benefits, in front of the king of Chu who used soldiers like a god, the outcome was obviously easy to see.
The army of the king of Chu attacked the shore, the momentum was like a rainbow, and at the same time, countless oil arrows were shot again, one by one the camp tents were ignited, and the raging flames rose, reflecting the fierce fighting around them.
Bai Changjian finally smelled the smell of blood in the air, he stood in a shadow, and saw countless soldiers falling, wailing echoing between heaven and earth, corpses everywhere, and rivers of blood, like purgatory on earth.
The long-awaited battle finally started, but it was not what he imagined, this battle, he lost, and the moment the army of the king of Chu attacked the shore, he had already pronounced his defeat.
Snowflakes suddenly floated in the air, fluttering and flying all over the sky, looking so quiet and beautiful, but they fell on this killing battlefield and quietly covered the dead soldiers, as if God intended to cover up this human tragedy.
Bai Changjian's face was pale, and his heart ached to the point of almost numbness, although he had not been in the Iron Cavalry Battalion for a long time, and the generals did not quite obey him, but the subordinates all loved him, and every time he beat his horse to patrol, there was always a thunderous shout on the training ground: "God of War!" Mars! ”
It was their heartfelt respect, and he remembered the vigor with which he had beaten his horse, as if everything was in his hands, fearless. Now they were all down, and the screams rang in his ears, and there was nothing he could do.
Through the fighting crowd, he saw Murong Mian, the king of Chu riding on a horse, quietly watching all this, his expression was calm and calm, and even his eyebrows were stretched, looking at this tragic scene, it was like looking at the purple and red in the garden.
Bai Changjian was simply surprised, how did he do it, how could he be so indifferent, didn't he feel heartache when he saw his soldiers killed? Is his heart made of stone?
Probably aware of his gaze, the King of Chu looked over, through the flying snow and the shadow of the sword and sword, there was a brief intersection in his eyes, his eyes were still unfazed, but Bai Changjian was aroused by his indifference, and until the last moment, it was not known who killed the deer. Dying throes are also a way out.
He called his own soldiers, "Hurry to General Wang and ask for support, it's too late." ”
The soldiers responded, took advantage of the night to fly on the horse, and rushed to the periphery, but before he ran out of Bai Changjian's sight, he was cut off the horse, and the moment he turned over and fell, he turned his head and looked this way, as if to tell him that he had a mission.
Bai Changjian looked at the falling figure, gritted his teeth, and called Guan Xiong over, "I'll cover, you take people to break through and move the rescuers." ”
Guan Xiong said: "No, I will cover, the general will lead people to break through!" ”
Bai Changjian was furious, "At this time, what else are you going to give up?" ”
Guan Xiong said, "None of us can get out, only the general, because the king of Chu will not kill you." ”
This is the truth, the king of Chu said, for Bai Qianfan's sake, he will not kill him,
Bai Changjian hated this sentence, but now he couldn't care so much, and called all his own soldiers over, with a solemn face: "Are you afraid of death?" ”
These soldiers followed him from the north, and they were very close to him, and they replied in unison, "The subordinates are not afraid of death, and they swear to follow the general." ”
"Well, the time has come for you to serve your kingdom." Bai Changjian waved his hand decisively, "Get on the horse, break through with me, whoever can run out to report the news, high-ranking officials are naturally indispensable!" ”
"Yes! Checkmate! The soldiers mounted their horses and followed him to break through to a place with few people. Guan Xiong led people to kill the enemy on both sides and cover them to run out.
The place to break through is Bai Chang's simple choice, the place is dark, there are few people, as long as the action is fast enough, he can run out, he ran at the front, and he was about to rush out of the encirclement, and suddenly the galloping horse fell down and threw him out.
The soldiers who followed immediately reached out to catch him, "General, get on your horse." ”
Bai Changjian's reaction was quite agile, and he hurriedly reached out to grab his own soldiers, and was about to turn over and get on the horse with his strength, "Whoosh!" With a bang, a long arrow pierced through the chest of his own soldier, and he only had time to call the general before rolling down.
Bai Changjian half-knelt on the ground, instinctively stretched out his hand to catch him, and looked in the direction where the arrow came from, it was the king of Chu, he was holding a bow in his hand, and his sharp and dark eyes were looking at him.
Bai Changjian was extremely angry, put down his own soldiers, pulled out his long sword and was about to rush towards him, but was dragged by other personal soldiers, "General, don't be impulsive, you will only be sent to death in the past!" ”
At this moment, a large group of enemy troops rushed over, plugging the gap, the opportunity was fleeting, and there was no hope of breaking through, Bai Changjian closed his eyes hard, and looked again, the king of Chu was still looking at him, not sad or happy, and his face was expressionless.
The people around him were fighting, probably because of the order of the king of Chu, no one came to kill him, he slowly raised his hand and put the sword on his neck, even if he died, he was not willing to surrender.
But the king of Chu moved faster than him, and an arrow came over, and with a ding, the long sword fell to the ground.
He stood there dejectedly, the arrow so powerful that his mouth was numb, and he looked at it with a dull expression.
