Chapter 279
Under the urging of a general, Zhang Yuan also made a plan in a panic, "The whole army is ready to fight." "A military order went down, and those panicked generals quieted down, of course they knew that they were either running or fighting at the moment, and now Zhang Yuan also chose to fight, so they had no objections.
On the chariot, Qing Yuan's face was ugly, recalling the previous promises made by Zhang Yuanyi, and he blamed Zhang Yuanyi for his incompetence, but he was ashamed of his trust in Zhang Yuanyi in advance, and Zhang Yuanyi's promises were overturned before, and he could no longer blame the other party, so at this moment, Qingyuan's emotions in joining the army can be described as very complicated.
The voice of the night army is getting closer and closer, and in a hurry, this person can only put all his hopes on Zhang Yuanyi at this moment, ready to fight.
"Kill," the shouting of killing got closer and closer, reaching the ears of the snow army as deafening as thunder, the snow army who had long seen the might of the night army was frightened at this moment, and many people had no fighting spirit. No matter how loud their war drums were beating, many of the Snow Army now preferred to hear the gong so that they could escape from this dangerous situation as soon as possible.
Under the panicked waiting of many snow troops, the cavalry of the Night Army finally came out from behind the obstacle, and the cavalry generals who rushed out first on both sides were followed by more ordinary cavalry.
"Release," Zhang Yuanyi ordered, and the archers on both wings of their snow army fired arrows directly at the night army that rushed out.
The generals in front of the Night Army were not afraid of arrows at all, and while waving the weapons in their hands, they rushed towards the Snow Army camp faster.
More and more cavalry came out of the gates, and the two groups of cavalry gradually converged as they advanced, and then spread out to both sides under the instructions of the generals, and the front line became longer and longer.
In a blink of an eye, the cavalry unfolded the queue of the snow army lined up with the captain, countless arrows flew towards the city gate, there was a scream in the night army, the cavalry fell one after another, even if there were generals in front of the team, there were still many cavalry died under the random arrows, of course, the casualties in front of them only aroused the anger of the night army.
As cavalrymen, they all knew that the role of archers was very short-lived, and once they rushed into the ranks of archers, those enemy archers would only be at their disposal.
"Rush," the sound of the charge did not stop, the cavalry of the night army was getting faster and faster, and the number of people entering the city was also increasing, and in a blink of an eye, it was only a few dozen meters away from the camp of the snow army.
In order to prevent the night army from directly rushing into their camp, at this time, Zhang Yuan also directly ordered. In the next moment, a charge also erupted in the Snow Army's camp. I saw that the cavalry of the Snow Army bypassed the chariot and scattered to rush forward, while Zhang Yuanyi's chariot and the chariot they were riding in retreated backwards with the archers.
Moments later, the two sides officially clashed. Since only one-third of the night cavalry had rushed in, the two sides were temporarily evenly matched in the cavalry battle, but the night army knew that there were countless brothers waiting to come in behind them, and they had no need to be afraid.
As the first weapon collision sounded, the battle place between the two armies exploded, and the sound of weapon collision became one in an instant. There was no threat from bows and arrows, and the attention of the night army was all shifted to the enemy army in front of them.
The area near the gate immediately became a large battlefield, and the cavalry itself occupied such a large area that the battlefield continued to expand to both sides.
In terms of momentum, the night army maintained a fearless momentum, while the snow army was a little nervous one by one, and the confrontation between the two armies was immediate. Those snow armies were no match for the night army at all, and one by one the snow armies kept falling down on the battle line.
The night army became more and more courageous, and the more soldiers rushed up from the rear, and in a blink of an eye, all the snow troops at the original battle line were killed, and the night army was advancing on the battle line. It is worth mentioning that as long as the Snow Army rushes forward into the camp of the Night Army, there is only one way out.
On the contrary, after the Night Army rushed into the camp of the Snow Army, it was able to immediately break up the formation of the Snow Army, bringing many opportunities for the Night Army to rush behind.
In the case of disproportionate morale, the battle line has been advancing, and those night army generals are all thinking of killing the snow army, so the night army is already attacking the snow army in the form of siege.
At the same time, on the battlefield of the original staircase positions, the number of infantry of the night army had surpassed that of the snow army earlier, and now Zhao Wu has sent many archers to join the battlefield.
At this moment, in the eyes of many snow troops, only the black pressed a group of enemy troops running down from the city with weapons, and the night army seemed to have an infinite number of people, giving them the illusion that they were far outnumbered. As a result, the Snow Army, which was originally not highly motivated, was even more panicked, especially a large number of Night Country cavalry rushing into the city with great momentum.
One by one, the snow army lost its fighting spirit one after another, just like the situation when they attacked Huangyan Pass and were besieged and killed by the night army that night, the snow army no longer had the slightest confidence to resist the night army. As a result, the combat power of the Snow Army has been greatly reduced, and it is impossible to resist the offensive of the Night Army.
Contrary to the growth of the morale of the night army, the morale of the snow army is still being destroyed, and it is conceivable that the snow army will have no morale at all before long.
In addition, until now, the formation of the Snow Army has become very chaotic, no matter how those generals command, it is useless, the more chaotic the result, the more difficult it is for the Snow Army's combat power to be brought into play, and the number of casualties will naturally increase. In the blink of an eye, the Night Army has an absolute advantage. Even if Zhao Wu is asked to command those snow armies to fight now, Zhao Wu will not be able to return to the sky, not to mention that Zhang Yuan himself is not even a qualified commander.
The defeat of the army is like a mountain, the trend of the rout of the snow army cannot be suppressed, and the number of those foot soldiers is decreasing sharply. Those night troops still held the battle policy of encircling and annihilating the Snow Army, and they have been surrounding the Snow Army.
Seeing that there were more and more enemy troops around them, and the pressure on those Snow Army generals was increasing, many people had already thought that if they were surrounded by the night army that was now like a tiger and a wolf, it would be difficult to rush out by then, then there was only one fate waiting for them.
Similar to the thoughts of some of the Snow Army generals, more and more Snow Army generals are aware of the danger they are in. In this case, how could they still have the heart to fight, and the snow army could only resist the attack while paying attention to the surrounding situation.
Unconsciously, the night army has surrounded most of them, and with the death and wounding of the snow army, the encirclement is shrinking, and many snow soldiers have escaped from the last gap, and the people inside will be extremely difficult to escape when the last gap is sealed by the night army.
"Withdraw," there was no other way, and one of the generals of the Snow Army could only ignore Zhang Yuanyi's existence and order the withdrawal of the army. This person took the lead, followed by more generals and commanders of the Snow Army shouting to retreat, those ordinary soldiers have always insisted on fighting, they have long exhausted their courage, and now they have been instructed by the generals to withdraw their troops, they have no intention of fighting, and they are waving their weapons and retreating to the rear one by one, hoping to retreat outside the encirclement of the enemy army.
On the other hand, when the generals of the Night Army saw that the enemy wanted to escape, they tried their best to lead their troops to attack, and they did not want to let their prey out easily. In the chaos, one by one, they killed the snow army all over the field, and the screams kept stopping.
On the other side, in terms of cavalry battles, the number of soldiers entering the city by the night army has reached a certain number, and the figures of cavalry are all on both sides of the city gate extending to a hundred meters away, and the battle line between the two armies is already more than 200 meters long. The queue of the Snow Army on the two-hundred-meter-long battle line is getting weaker and weaker, the array of the Night Army is getting thicker and thicker, and the Night Army is constantly pushing the battle line forward, and there are already cavalry about to break through the cavalry line of the Snow Army.
On the chariot fifty meters away from the battlefield, Zhang Yuan and Na Qingyuan joined the army and had been paying attention to the battle situation in front of them, and both of them had sweat on their foreheads, so the scene told the two that the snow army was gone.
In addition, under the two flags in the city, the two finally saw Zhao Wu's existence, and the two sides looked at each other from a distance of nearly two hundred meters. Zhao Wu's face was calm, Zhang Yuanyi and Qingyuan joined the army, and their faces were pale, although Zhao Wu only showed his upper body, but the majestic figure was extremely tall in the eyes of the two, and the two couldn't describe how strong Zhao Wu's momentum was, even if they couldn't see Zhao Wu's face clearly.
"Marshal Zhang, wait for the general to take your head," Zhao Xu raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Yuanyi with a high spirit. Zhao Xu naturally knew that his own strength was not enough to kill the other party, so he said that he would wait.
Of course, the eighth-order martial cultivators were powerful, but it was not impossible for several seventh-order martial cultivators to join forces to kill each other. On the other hand, Zhao Xu's provocation was simply an insult to Zhang Yuanyi, not to mention Zhang Yuanyi's own strength as an eighth-order martial cultivator. In terms of identity, Zhang Yuan is also more than one order higher than Zhao Xu.
Zhang Yuan also had some impressions of Zhao Xu, but he didn't expect that a general on the other side would say that he would kill him, Zhang Yuan was also embarrassed and angry as if he was greatly stimulated, and his face turned red, how could he Zhang Yuan have ever suffered such an insult.
"Hmph," snorted coldly, and Zhang Yuan immediately took the weapon on the chariot and was about to go over to participate in the battle.
"No," Seeing that Zhang Yuan was also angry and wanted to kill Zhao Xu, Qing Yuan next to him immediately shouted: "Do you want to go over and die?"
As the commander of the three armies, Zhang Yuan naturally could not participate in the battle at will, and if he died under the siege of the enemy general, his death alone would mean that the army had been defeated.
