Chapter 21: The Trial III

"Feng Xiao, what do you say we are fighting for?" Li Haitao asked, the big tent of the Chinese army, plus Liu Qing, only the three of them were there.

"General, I don't know anything about politics, I only know how to act according to orders. Feng Xiao didn't know what kind of medicine the general was selling, so he suddenly summoned him to the big tent of the Chinese army, but the question he asked was not military strategy, but such an inexplicable thing.

"Haha, you kid, you really have to learn more military strategies, and Qingguo will rely on you young people to support you in the future. General Li Haitao paused and continued: "Do you have something you want to protect desperately?"

"Of course, my family and brothers are all worthy of my life. Feng Xiao replied that he was just a passer-by in this world, but what he wanted to protect was in his heart.

Li Haitao nodded: "For me, Qingguo is my home, the people of Qingguo are my family, and I can protect them with my life." There are enemies far stronger than us ahead, and we need to pay more if we want to defend these things. Judging from the transfer of the ** team in the daytime, tomorrow, there will be a decisive battle. Because the front pass was broken, we have no danger to defend, this is already the last resistance route, behind us, is a horse Pingchuan, if we fail, Jingguo's iron cavalry can roll in. ”

"General, if you want to go over, you need to step on our corpses first, the last general doesn't know how to arrange troops, but where your troops are going, is where my goal is. Feng Xiao said solemnly, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the family is far more important than the concept of the country, and the family is the root of survival. But the world of trials is different, and here the country is the most important.

This time you need to undertake a very heavy task, it can be said that it is the most important link, whether we can defeat the strong with the weak depends on you.

"Liu Changshi, let's talk about it to our fierce general. General Li Haitao summoned the wind howl to the topographic map.

"Yes, General. Liu Qing began to explain the tactics of the next day: "The Jingguo cavalry is the best in the world, according to their tactics, it must be cavalry charging into formation, and it is a heavy cavalry charging formation. Our cavalry is completely unable to fight them head-on, but fortunately our armor and weapons are better than theirs, and the hoplites will be the main force against the heavy cavalry. The terrain here is just enough for our forces to spread, but it is not conducive to the opposing cavalry to use the flanks to strike at our formation. Tomorrow is a decisive battle, but whether it is Jingguo's heavy cavalry or our hoplites, it is difficult to make a final decision, according to the character of the opponent's commander, at the critical moment, the pro-guard army will definitely be sent to attack, like the last straw on the camel's back, to achieve the goal of crushing us. ”

"At this time, there must be emptiness around the opponent's commander, at this time what you have to do is to lead the general's 1,000 personal guards, go straight to the opponent's banner, and capture the flag! Liu Qing gave a general introduction to the strategy.

Feng Xiao's brows furrowed: "Liu Changshi, the other party's marshal is also a battlefield general, so he must take precautions against this." Although Feng Xiao is not familiar with military strategy, he can think of these common sense things, how could the other party's marshal be negligent?

"Of course the other party can think of it, but he can't estimate your force. Our two sides have been fighting fiercely for many years, and it is clear what masters the other side has, and a warrior of the level of you and the general can decide the direction of a small-scale war. From the current intelligence analysis, the other party has not found out about your cultivation, and this is where we can take advantage of it. Besides, the general is not as good as you. Liu Qing smiled, and the last sentence was said by the general himself.

"Okay, in that case, the last general will see the signal tomorrow to charge, general, I will definitely cut down the opponent's banner!" Feng Xiao still had nothing to say in his heart, that is, he wanted to kill the opponent's commander.

It's not credible to say this, it's a character who cultivates to be similar to Feng Xiao, and it's not certain who will lose or win in a fight, not to mention, there will definitely be a lot of masters around the other party, even if a personal guard has been dispatched. Feng Xiao has no bottom in his heart, or he has to act when the time comes, otherwise the mission will fail, and what he will lose is his life, this is his best chance, after three days of running-in, Feng Xiao has been like an arm to the more than 1,000 people's guards.

The Qing ** team is mainly foot soldiers, and there are not many cavalry, and they are generally used as sentinels, and those who can become one of them are all extremely elite people in the army, and the general's personal guard is the elite of the elite, which can be said to be the strongest force in Qingguo, only 3,000 people.

Wind Howl and a thousand of them hid in the middle of the army, waiting for the battle to begin.

There was no small-scale temptation in the battle, and Jingguo's heavy cavalry started slowly and slowly increased its speed, like a silver spear, rushing towards the black iron wall of Qingguo.

However, the armor-piercing arrows made by the Qing army were extremely sharp, and the armor-piercing arrows shot by the warriors could not be stopped by the iron armor of the heavy cavalry. But there are too few martial artists of the grade, and in the face of the opponent's fierce assault, it is like in the rough sea, the splash caused by the fall of a small pebble disappears without a trace in an instant.

"Shield!" Seeing the other party rushing violently, the forward general ordered loudly, and with the waving of the military flag, the troops lined up in a military formation shouted, and an iron shield more than two meters high was erected obliquely, and there were three soldiers behind each gambling card. This was followed by the spearmen, and then by the heavily armored infantry armed with swords!

In the middle of the charge, the heavy armored cavalry was silent and solemn, only the roar of horses' hooves, there was no sound of shouting and killing, and the team became undulating like a wave, but it still maintained a queue, and it was indeed worthy of the elite of the Jing army.

"Kill!" Like a huge wave crashing against a reef, the two armies finally collided! The heavy cavalry in the front row jumped up and slammed straight into the opponent's military formation, and with the momentum of running, they collided with the oblique iron shield, and waved their long knives in their hands, fighting fiercely with their opponents.

There is no luck in this kind of brutal confrontation, that is, a general like Li Haitao, if he rushes into battle, he is also in great danger all the time, even more dangerous than ordinary soldiers. Because he and the banner behind him themselves were conspicuous targets, like a huge piece of sugar, attracting more ants to pounce on him.

After engaging the enemy, although the soldiers with shields were basically killed, the huge shields in the front row greatly slowed down the impact of the heavily armored cavalry, and they touched all around, except for knives and guns. Riding spears like dragons, swords like tigers, the most powerful armies of the two countries collided together.

When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, and it depends on who can't withstand it first and retreats first. As soon as one person retreats, it will immediately cause an avalanche-like effect.

The heavy armored infantry and the heavy armored cavalry must suffer a loss when they collide, but fortunately, the Qing ** team has prepared a lot of horse pits, and the heavy armored cavalry as long as they fall off their horses, it is much inferior to the heavy armored infantry. But the impact power of the heavy armored cavalry is not a joke, these cavalry are basically first-class martial artists, otherwise the combat effectiveness of such a heavy armor will be greatly affected. Compared with the pro-guard army, the combat effectiveness is a grade lower, but it is better than the number of people. Only the first wave of impact, the shield wall was completely broken, but the first wave of heavy armored cavalry also turned on their backs, and the price paid by both sides was equal.

From the perspective of tactical value, the Qing army slowed down the impact of the heavy armored cavalry to a certain extent, and the Jing army broke the first line of release, and then, it depends on whether the second wave of the heavy armored cavalry attacked fiercely, or the second wave of the heavy armored infantry was tougher in defense!

Feng Xiao stood at the back of the battle formation, his throat was a little dry, he didn't have the command ability of Li Haitao, but his eyesight was far sharper than that of ordinary people! At this time, seeing a lineup of metal collisions, the silver-armored Jing army was like a long dragon deeply into his own formation, rushing left and right. The black-armored Qingguo heavy infantry often adopts the style of fighting for their lives, the heavy armor is hard to resist the impact, and the Mo knife in their hands flies. Wherever the blade goes, everyone and horses are torn apart! But he is often knocked away by violent impacts.

The innate infantry is weaker than the cavalry, but you can see these soldiers with full body armor and long knives, under one sword, they are all torn apart, no matter the timing, strength, and speed of the attack!

Feng Xiao only felt that his blood was boiling, and he just wanted to rush up and kill it!!The guards in the back row, feeling this tragic atmosphere, all breathed heavily, and the war horses began to neigh, and many people in the guards were selected from the heavily armored Mo sword soldiers, and they were even more excited when they saw the familiar way of fighting.

The two teams gradually strangled together, you have me, I have you! After paying a heavy price, the impact of the heavy cavalry was finally stopped by the Qing ** team. Under the banner of the Jing ** team, a ruthless general stood under the flag, looking at the scene of strangulation in the distance, without a trace of emotion.

"Hmph, Li Haitao, you really have a hand! But I don't know if you can prevent the impact of my Luo Hao's 4,000 pro-guards! Yuan Shang, lead the pro-guard army, impact! Pierce it for me!" As expected, Jingguo was going to rely on the final blow to defeat Qingguo. Luo Hao, the marshal of Jingguo, had already seen Li Haitao's personal guards rushing to the scene, and it was Li Haitao who sent the only remaining 2,000 personal guards in order to confuse Jingguo, just to make Jingguo think that the Qing army had reached the stage of no reserves. In this way, Feng Xiao has a chance to kill the flag, otherwise, the opponent has two thousand personal guards, and he only has one thousand, no matter how conceited Li Haitao is, he will not do this.

Luo Hao's 5,000 personal guards, sent 4,000, and kept 1,000 by his side, he didn't think that Qingguo still had a hidden army to threaten him, if Li Yongtao personally led a team of personal guards to charge the battle, it would be a bit threatening, but Li Yongtao, who has always been as steady as a rock, would definitely not do such a thing, besides him, which general in Qingguo could rush in front of him?

"Main attack the opponent's general! Kill the general! Capture the flag!" The wind howled and roared, and a thousand guards moved slowly, rushing towards the Jingguo banner from a temporarily separated road.
