Volume III, Chapter 566

Hearing the cheers of the Jin army, the Red Army on the opposite side did not dare to show weakness, the war drums sounded in unison, and the shouts were equally deafening.

The commanders of both sides are desperate on the battlefield, and the soldiers on both sides are also fighting off the field, for fear that the momentum on their side will be suppressed by the other side.

As soon as the connoisseur stretched out his hand, he knew if there was one.

Half a round later, Yao Zhiyuan no longer dared to have the slightest intention of underestimating the enemy, he roared, turned the horse's head, and killed Hu Xia again.

Hu Xia also rushed towards Yao Zhiyuan, the two of them circled, raising their swords at the same time, and you fought back and forth in one place.

In an instant, Hu Xia and Yao Zhiyuan fought for more than ten rounds, during which the two of them either simply competed in martial arts or in martial arts skills.

Even Guan He, who was standing in the distance watching the battle, was nodding secretly, this Hu Xia, who was screened by the military order, was so powerful, it seemed that even if the martial arts were not as good as himself, they were not much worse. You have to sit firmly in the position of the commander of the legion, otherwise you will regret it if you are surpassed by the juniors one day.

In fact, Guan He's age is almost the same as Hu Xia, but his qualifications in the Jin army are indeed much older than Hu Xia, and Hu Xia can indeed be counted as his junior according to the rules of the army.

Let's talk about Hu Xia on the battlefield, now he has a clear understanding of Yao Zhiyuan's catties, and he has no patience to delay any longer, he suddenly strengthened, and the long knife in his hand flashed with the brilliance of ten thousand ways, and the whirlwind of the knife was released.

At that moment, the air currents that gathered into a mass were overwhelming, marking countless cracks on the ground, and the wind and sand on the field were rocky, and the sky was dark, as if a tornado was blowing.

Seeing this, Yao Zhiyuan's face changed suddenly. Where did he dare to be lazy, nor did he dare to be opportunistic, he used the same skill as Hu Xia - a whirlwind of knives to deal with it in a proper manner.

The collision of two top-level underworld martial arts skills in one place can be called a mountain shaking, the wind and clouds suddenly change, and the imperative pressure that bursts out for a while will center the ground on the two of them. A depression more than a foot deep was forced out of a radius of about ten meters.

Looking at the field again, the blood mist rolled up into the air, that is, the war horses of the two of them were squeezed into blood foam by the underworld, and the dust flying in the sky was even affected by the two camps a hundred steps away, and the soldiers standing in front couldn't open their eyes at all, covered their faces with their hands, and were blown back again and again by the strong wind.

This is the power that bursts out when the top-level underworld skills collide.

After the whirlwind collision of a knife, Hu Xia and Yao Zhiyuan's war horses were all shaken, and the former stood in place. Like a stake, motionless, the latter, involuntarily retreated one after another, he withdrew seven or eight paces in one breath, and then sat down on the ground, and then, with a wow, spurting blood. Blood slowly dripped down the cracks in his facial armor.

The same skill, but due to the gap in the cultivation of the two of them. As a result, Hu Xia was safe and sound, but Yao Zhiyuan's vitality was greatly injured and he had lost the strength to fight again.

Seeing Yao Zhiyuan, who was sitting on the ground, struggling to stand up but couldn't stand up, Hu Xia laughed out loud and said, "Hu is indeed a nobody in the Jin Army. But it's more than enough to deal with a rat like you!Yao Zhiyuan, you should die!" As he spoke, Hu Xia stepped forward with his knife and looked at Yao Zhiyuan's head. The gesture is to be slashed with a knife.

At this moment, someone behind Yao Zhiyuan suddenly shouted: "Hugh General Yao!" With the words, three red generals rushed out of the camp of the Red Army, and the three of them quickly whipped up, lined up in a line, and before the people arrived, the martial arts skills had been released first.

I don't know the level of the comer, Hu Xia didn't dare to be careless, he abandoned Yao Zhiyuan, retreated, and let go of the martial arts skills released by the three red generals.

The three red generals did not entangle with Hu Xia, and when they reached Yao Zhiyuan, one of them reached out and grabbed his arm, pulled him hard, pulled him onto the war horse, and then turned the horse back and ran.

The other two Red generals also turned their horses' heads and rushed back to the Red camp at a gallop.

The battle between the generals of the two sides is not allowed to be interfered with by others, this is the unwritten rule of the war between the two armies, and it is also related to the reputation of the generals, for the generals in the army, reputation is more important than life. But at this time, Yao Zhiyuan had already been defeated, and when he saw that he was about to die under Hu Xia's knife, the other red generals suddenly took action and rescued him, which made the Jin army stunned and angry.

Hu Xia looked at the backs of the red generals who had gone away, he gritted his teeth in anger, he squinted his eyes, suddenly raised his long knife, turned around and shouted: "The red people are brazen, brothers, kill with me-"

"Kill-" The Jin army was full of indignation, and the 50,000 soldiers of the Fourth Army shouted in unison, and the phalanx moved forward.

The momentum of the advance of the 50,000-strong army should not be underestimated, and as the army advanced, the roar of stepping on the ground was deafening, and the tremor of the ground could be clearly felt within a radius of several miles.

However, the Red Army on the opposite side is not a straw bale local army, but the battle-hardened Central Army of the Red Country, the elite of the Red Army did not retreat to the camp in a hurry, but also listed the battle in front of the camp, the soldiers raised their shields, spears on the shield, and the red generals on the wall behind the wall also gave orders in succession, so that the Red Army on the wall of the wall stretched their bows and prepared to release arrows.

The prelude to the war between the two sides has quietly begun, and what follows is a bloody battle to the death.

The chief general of the Red Army was obviously also an experienced and good general who was good at leading the army to fight, and when the Jin army had advanced to the range of the camp, he did not give the order to release arrows, but deliberately let the Jin army continue to go deeper.

Soon, the vanguard of the Jin army was the first to come into contact with the Red army outside the camp. The two armies collided head-on, and for a while, there were bursts of roars, shouts of killing, the collision of shields and shields, the splashing of sparks, the collision of bodies and bodies, and the flying of flesh and blood.

The well-trained Red Army, which had only more than 10,000 men, was not overwhelmed by the overwhelming momentum of the Jin Army, but instead engaged in a-for-tat hand-to-hand white-knuckle battle with it.

The Red Army stabbed forward with their spears while using their shields to resist the rushing Jin Army.

When their spears passed through the gaps in the shields of the Jin army and killed the Jin army, the spears on the opposite side often pierced their own chests, and the fourth legion was also one of the best in the Jin army, and the soldiers fought fiercely and bravely.

Seeing the brothers in front of him fall to the ground one after another, Jin Jun's eyes in the back were red. Many people bounced up on the fallen bodies of their comrades and flew towards the Red Army's camp.

Of course, they were stabbed into a hornet's nest by the Red Army's spears when they fell, but in the same way, their corpses were also smashed on top of the Red Army's heads, knocking the Red Army camp into disarray.

Even if the combat power of this Red Army is already very strong. Even if they had the determination to fight the enemy to the end, they still couldn't resist the crazy onslaught of the Jin army.

At this moment, the commander of the Red Army on the walled wall finally gave the order to release arrows from the whole army.

The main general gave an order, and in an instant, the wall of the wall was sprayed with arrows, pouring down like a torrential rain, and falling into the center of the Jin army's camp. With the sound of arrows piercing armor, a group of people fell in the center of the Jin army's camp.

And that's just the beginning. The Red Army's arrow array was wave after wave, there was no gap between them, and the dense flying arrows continued to fly down, and in the middle of the Jin Army's camp that was attacked intensively, the soldiers fell row after row, and the corpses were stacked on top of each other, and they were miserable.

The arrow array of the Red Army on the walled wall was like a knife, cutting the camp of the Jin Army from the middle. so that it cannot be connected from end to end, so on. The Jin army's attack was interrupted, and the soldiers in front were fighting hard with the Red Army, constantly suffering casualties, but the Jin army behind could not keep up, so that its impact was sharply reduced.

Hu Xia was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, but he couldn't think of a good way to deal with it. After the last time, he turned his heart sideways, and he personally pushed to the front, wanting to tear apart the defense line of the Red Army outside the camp with his own strength.

Hu Xia's underworld martial arts are very strong, and every time he releases his underworld martial arts skills, he can kill a red soldier in front of him. But the number of the other party is too large, one is dead, and another one rushes in, and the killing is endless, and the battlefield of such a large-scale battle, how can the situation be changed by him alone?

The Jin army's attack was not received, and the morale of the Red Army was greatly boosted, and its main general ran down the wall, ordered the gate of the wall, and led the main force of the Red Army to take the initiative to rush out of the camp and launch a counter-attack on the Jin army that came to attack.

Where could the group of Jin troops blocked in front of the Red Army's arrow array still be able to withstand the counter-charge of nearly 100,000 Red Army, people involuntarily retreated again and again, but as soon as they retreated, they entered the Red Army's arrow array, and countless people were hit by arrows in their heads and bodies, and groups of Jin soldiers were overwhelmed by the dense arrows, like hedgehogs, and died tragically on the battlefield.

At this time, even Hu Xia couldn't stand it, and under the impact of the Red Army, the war horse was not under his control, and was knocked back and forth. The 50,000 Fourth Army Corps had completely fallen into passivity on the battlefield, the troops in the second half could not keep up, the soldiers in the first half could not retreat, and the places covered by the Red Army's arrow array in the middle were already piled up like a mountain of corpses and rivers of blood.

Guan He, who was in the rear of the Fourth Legion, frowned when he saw this, and if he continued to fight like this, it was estimated that the 50,000 soldiers of the Fourth Legion would have to be explained here.

He took a deep breath, slowly raised his arm, paused in the air for a moment, fell forward sharply, and shouted sideways: "Our army is attacking!"

The Fourth Legion was down, the Seventh Legion was forced to fight, and the phalanx of 100,000 hoplites began to move forward slowly.

The advance of the cavalry, at first slow, about the same as that of the infantry, but as the horses ran away, the speed also increased, and in the blink of an eye, the vanguard of the Seventh Legion was approaching the tail of the Fourth Legion.

The hoplites pulled their necks on their horses and shouted, "Brother in front, get out of the way!"

Hearing the shouts, the people looked back and were terrified, and the cavalry and horses that were coming like a whirlwind were approaching them.

The weight of the heavy cavalry is too heavy, once it charges, the inertia dictates, but it will not make a sharp turn to make people, no matter whether it is the enemy in front of it, it will rush straight through.

The officers and men of the Fourth Legion dodged one after another, dodging and dodging, some of them moved quickly and gave way to the Seventh Legion, while some of them were slow and were hit by the heavy cavalry rushing from behind, and their bodies bounced forward and flew out, even if they did not die, they were broken bones and tendons.

The rampaging Seventh Legion passed through the second half of the Fourth Legion and came to the middle of the Fourth Legion, which was still suffering from concentrated arrow fire from the Red Army on the wall, and the Fourth Legion did not go, but the Seventh Legion did not care about this, and the horse team advanced like bulldozers.

"Ding-dong!" The Red Army's arrow array shot at the cavalry and horses of the Seventh Legion, and the crisp sound continued, but it was like a mosquito bite, and it did not pose a real threat at all, and the dense and powerful arrow array did not even leave any trace in their heavy armor.

That's the horror of hoplites.

After successfully passing through the arrow array of the Red Army, and then passing through the camp of the Fourth Army in the first half, the Seventh Army finally came into contact with the Red Army.

The shields of the Red Army were no problem blocking people, but they could not stop the charging of the heavy cavalry, and the armor was extremely thick with one man and one horse. Its weight is more than a thousand catties, galloping up, the inertia is so large, but also in the thousand catties.

No matter how strong and strong the shield in the hands of the Red Army was, if it was hit by such a heavy blow, it would shatter the shield.

The moment the Red Army and the Seventh Army came into contact. The screams of the soldiers in front of them have been connected, countless Red soldiers and soldiers were knocked out of the air, and many more soldiers were trampled into flesh by the horse team, and the bones were gone, and the spears in the hands of the heavy cavalry also caused huge casualties to the Red Army.

With the entry of the Seventh Army Corps, the situation on the battlefield also began to reverse, and the Red Army's counter-charge came to an abrupt end. The counterattack of the Jin army is in full swing again. Under the onslaught of the heavy cavalry, the unsuspecting Red Army suffered heavy casualties and suffered heavy losses.

How to restrain the heavy cavalry of the Jin State, the commander of the Red Army couldn't think of a good way for a while, seeing that his soldiers had been killed and crushed, he could only reluctantly order, and the whole army retreated to the camp and defended with all his might.

Don't look at the ease of the Red Army's slaughter out of the camp. At this time, if you want to go back, it's not that simple. It is necessary to leave a part of the people to resist the Jin army and prevent the Jin army from taking advantage of the chaos to rush into the camp.

The chief general of the Red Army gave orders to let one of his subordinates, Ai General, lead a corps of troops to stop the Jin Army, and he himself led the main force of the Red Army to withdraw to the camp.

The main force of the Red Army was to retreat, and the rear team became the front team. But it was not withdrawn for a long time, and the commander of the Red Army was in a hurry and sent people to the rear to see what was going on.

It didn't take long for the men he sent to return. The gate of the camp has been closed, and the soldiers inside do not open the gate for themselves at all.

Hearing this, the face of the commander of the Red Army changed greatly, at such a critical moment, the people in the camp dared not to open the gate of the village, is this worth it?

He separated his own people, walked to the gate of the village, and shouted inside: "I am Zhang Yan, the soldiers in the camp quickly open the gate of the village, if the fighter plane is delayed, you will have to ...... your head."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a series of screams suddenly sounded on the wall, and then, the archers who were left behind by him to release arrows outside the wall fell off the wall like dumplings, and at the same time, the sound of fierce fighting came from the wall.

"What are you going to do? Why are your own people fighting your own people? Stop!"

"No, they're spies! There are spies in my barracks...... Ah......h

Listening to the roar of the wall above his head, Zhang Yan, the commander of the Red Army, buzzed his head, when did the spies of the Jin army enter his camp? How did they get in? Didn't they kill all the Jin troops who had infiltrated his own in the first place?

The situation on the battlefield is so rapidly changing, no one expected that the Red Army was reversed by a sudden Jin cavalry in the case of comprehensive superiority, and what is even more surprising is that the spies of the Jin State are still in the Red Camp, and take advantage of the opportunity of the main force of the Red Army to go out of the camp, control the gate of the wall, and lock the main force of the Red Army outside the camp.

If they don't open the gate, there is no way to talk about the 100,000 Red Army outside, they came out to counterattack the Jin Army, it is impossible to bring siege weapons, and it is impossible to carry things like ladders, even if they want to counterattack back, there is no way.

At this time, even Guan He, the commander of the Seventh Army, was a little unable to understand the tactics of the Red Army, the Red Army had obviously been beaten by its own heavy cavalry, and it was struggling to support, and it was only left to be beaten, and there was no way to deal with it, but the Red Army did not retreat for a long time, and insisted on fighting against its own side, what kind of stupid general could make such an unforgivable mistake?

However, if the other party wants to seek death, how can Guan He be soft, and if the other party insists on giving him a great achievement, how can Guan He push it out? He was overjoyed in his heart, and ordered his subordinates to attack at full speed and kill the Red Army.

Now the battlefield is no longer an evenly matched fight, but a one-sided slaughter, in front of the hoplites, the infantry seems so insignificant, under the iron hooves of the war horses, the red soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and the corpses that were trampled to a blur of flesh and blood can be seen everywhere.

The strength of the Red Army became smaller and smaller, from the initial 100,000 to 80,000, and from 80,000 to 60,000, and by noon, the strength of the Red Army was less than 50,000.

Until this time, Zhang Yan, the commander of the Red Army, did not think of how to restrain the heavy cavalry of the Jin State.

It is useless to cramle on the battlefield, and it would be a fantasy to think of a way to crack it without having done a meticulous and systematic study of the hoplites in advance, and only relying on the improvisation on the battlefield to think of a solution.

Seeing that his own army was about to be annihilated, and none of the 100,000 soldiers would survive, Zhang Yan gritted his teeth and crossed his heart, and gave the order to go down, raise the white flag, and surrender to the Jin army.

As the commander of an army, surrendering is naturally a great shame, but he can't gamble with the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers under his command for his own honor and disgrace. He has already lost this battle, and if he continues to fight, it will only increase casualties.

Now, Guan He was fighting on the head of Xing, and suddenly saw that the Red Army raised a white flag and gave up resistance, even if he was unwilling, he could only order the whole army to suspend the attack and accept the surrender of the Red Army.

At the end of the battle, the casualties of the Jin and Chi armies were very heavy, and the casualties on the Jin army's side were mainly concentrated in the Fourth Army Corps, close to 20,000 people.

Although the result of this battle was a complete victory for the Jin army, Hu Xia was not happy. If the Seventh Army had not participated in the war, relying only on the 50,000 Fourth Army Corps led by him, this would definitely not have been the result in the end, and I am afraid that the entire army, including himself, would have to die at the hands of the Red Army.

Before this battle, Hu Xia was still complacent and arrogant, but after this battle, Hu Xia's confidence was greatly hit, and he also realized that although his martial arts were strong, his ability to lead troops to fight was still far behind......!
