Chapter 239: Tears
Poor water on the edge of the valley village, the blood is turned into ice and the spring is not returned.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The drums of the two armies converged, stirring up chaos on the entire battlefield.
The dead soldiers of the Qing army were wearing heavy armor and their swords were difficult to penetrate.
However, the spearmen of Xuanda in front of him were also wearing heavy armor, they wore iron armor inside, and their coats were covered with a thick layer of cotton, and knives and arrows were invulnerable.
The large array of the Qing army has been completely entangled with the military array of the Xuan army.
All kinds of blades waved in front of the battle, and in the midst of the earth-shattering shouts of killing, the soldiers on both sides were desperately waving the spears and broadswords in their hands, constantly stabbing forward, trying their best to kill the enemy in front of them.
The dense spears flickered with the cold light of metal, and the clumps of spit quickly harvested human lives.
When the battle reached this point, the soldiers on both sides were already completely in madness.
The Qing army had the upper hand and was determined to win.
They did not dare to retreat, for behind them were overseers with sharp blades, and to retreat was death.
The Ming army was at a disadvantage, but it had the heart to die.
They can't retreat, because they have no way to retreat, they are besieged, they are isolated.
They also did not want to retreat, and what they saw along the way was full of devastation, mourning everywhere, and countless compatriots who did not blink their eyes to death.
The court can't stand them, the country can't stand them, but the governors can stand them, and the people can stand them.
The food they eat was saved for them by the people of Sanfu who were starving, how can they return?!
The two armies were entangled in vicious battles and fell into a brutal tug-of-war.
Time flies like a white horse, passing quickly in the battle on the battlefield.
The fight of cold weapons will sharply consume people's physical strength, and the front of the confrontation between the two armies of the Ming and Qing dynasties are all soldiers wearing heavy armor, and it is even more difficult for each other to pierce each other's armor, and the consumption of physical strength is therefore even greater.
"Kill slaves! Kill slaves! ”
The Ming army continued to hear the shouts of killing slaves.
At first, only a small number of people were shouting, but soon more and more people joined the shouting sequence.
The shouts of killing slaves became higher and louder, more and more intense, wave after wave, wave after wave, and finally up to the clouds, almost wanting to penetrate the clouds and crack the stones!
"Kill slaves!!"
The crowd of people in the four wild fields was like a sea, and the Qing army armor soldiers in front of the formation kept falling, but more Qing army armor soldiers with distorted expressions were still swarming in.
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou!! ”
The arrows broke through the air and continued to sound, and the lightly armored archers in the Qing army continued to bend their bows and arrows, supporting their own armor soldiers who were fighting fiercely in the front formation.
The archers behind the Ming army were also not to be outdone, and they kept fighting back with their bows and arrows.
In the rear, the watchtowers and inner camp walls that had not yet collapsed, puffs of gunpowder smoke rose with a deafening explosion, and the Ming army's Lu Mi gunmen also opened fire.
The power of the Lu Mi gun was extremely great, and the three-penny lead bullet flew over a distance of sixty or seventy steps in an instant, easily tearing the armor on those Qing army armor soldiers.
Then they continued to deform and disintegrate in their bodies, and then rolled indiscriminately in the liver and intestines, making a mess inside.
Under the effect of the cavity effect, the blood of the wounded spurted out of the body along the hole caused by the rolling of the lead bullet, and blood arrows of different forms continued to emerge in the Qing army's array.
In front of the two armies, the red waves continued to rise in the surging tide, and the screams of slander were endless.
The Qing army swarmed from the three fronts, and more and more places began to be opened.
Gaps in the camp kept appearing, but soon they were plugged up.
Yang Guozhu, who was guarding the right flank in the north, was still able to hold out, but the Hu Dawei army, which was guarding the left flank of the southern camp, was losing and retreating.
This is not because of Hu Dawei's lack of ability, but because the main force and elite of the Qing army are almost concentrated in the direction of Nanying.
Hu Dawei's banner has always stood in the direction of the front line, and he led his guards to rush left and right, constantly galloping to help all parts of the front.
"Kill slaves!!"
The earth-shattering roar of the Chinese army continued to echo in Lu Xiangsheng's chest.
Lu Xiangsheng raised his head, his gaze crossed the front of the Chinese army, the front of the Qing army, and finally fell on the silver-white daze that was in the rear of the Qing army.
Lu Xiangsheng's heart was clear, and he knew that that was where the head of Jiannu was.
The battle has come to this point, the time has come to this, the army has run out of ammunition and food, the soldiers are hungry, and they are already exhausted from running back and forth.
However, the Qing army was recuperating and waiting for a long time, and it occupied a numerical advantage.
Since Salhu, every time there is a field battle to build slaves, it is more to win with less, and in this battle, the Qing army also has an advantage in numbers.
Lu Xiangsheng knew very well that the chances of victory were extremely slim.
Gao Qi absconded far away and fled to Linqing, and he couldn't rely on it.
And Sun Chuanting is far away from Zhending, and the whip is beyond reach.
He fought with 9,000 lone troops against 40,000 Qing troops.
The Qing army surrounded several divisions, surrounded by three turns, swarming like a tide, and sitting in a lonely camp was like sitting and waiting for death.
The road to death, there is only a glimmer of life!
Directly take the middle camp of the Qing army and force the commander of the Qing army to retreat.
If it succeeds, it can break the surface, and with the momentum of soaring, it will break the siege on three sides.
If you fail, you will already do your best and have a clear conscience.
"Blow the trumpet, gather the troops."
Lu Xiangsheng raised the sword in his hand and calmly gave orders.
He took the reins of the horse handed by the guard, and with a slight step on the stirrup, he was already on the horse.
"Woo——————"
The sound of the horn was sounded, and in an instant, it had spread throughout Jiazhuang.
All the guards also got on their horses one after another, each holding a sword and a sword, drawing a bow and carrying a knife.
In Jiazhuang, the remaining soldiers also responded to the call when they heard the call and lined up to give orders.
The battle in the front line has entered the white heat, and both sides have already fought real fire, and a large number of soldiers are dying in Huangquan every minute and second.
Lu Xiangsheng held the reins of the horse in one hand and the war knife in the other, he was wearing bright Ming armor, wearing a red tasseled pointed iron helmet, and wearing a crimson civilian official uniform, straddle the war horse.
In the distance, the Qing army in the array of various colors of flags continued to fly in the wind and rain, rushing like a torrent.
Facing the Qing army that almost covered the entire field of vision, Lu Xiangsheng did not have the slightest fear in his heart.
Ma Tong human nature, the war horse that Lu Xiangsheng had followed him for many years just shook his head slightly, lowered his horse's head, and snorted slightly, it was ready to charge.
Lu Xiangsheng gently patted the neck of the war horse under the seat, he had already made up his mind.
The low and desolate sound of the horn continued to sound under the lookout, the chaotic sound of horses' hooves continued to sound behind Lu Xiangsheng, and more and more armored horsemen gathered on Lu Xiangsheng's side, and one after another crimson flags were constantly erected behind Lu Xiangsheng.
Come on, come on!
Lu Xiangsheng threw down the knife he had been holding before, and took the Yanling knife from the hand of the guard beside him.
"Drive!"
Lu Xiangsheng snorted softly, his legs gently kicked the horse's belly, and the war horse under the seat suddenly neighed, and then stepped out of his four hooves and started forward.
"Drive!" "Drive!"
Behind him, a group of armored horsemen also shouted, driving the war horses to bury their heads forward.
More shouts came from behind, and the armored horsemen followed in unison.
The sound of rumbling horses' hooves on the ground suddenly sounded on the battlefield.
The earth made a dull noise under the trampling of horses' hooves.
Lu Xiangsheng jumped in front of him, he clenched the Yanling knife in his hand, and pushed forward with all his might, and gave the last military order before charging angrily.
"Kill !! Together"
Behind them, all the armored horsemen held their swords high, responding to their snort with the loudest voice in their lives.
"Kill !!"
The crimson banner constantly stirred in the air and made the sound of hunting, and all the Ming army armored horsemen regarded death as if they were home, and they followed Lu Xiangsheng and swept towards the Qing army like a tide.
The iron armor is strong, the wind and snow are eroding the bones, and the armored cavalry of more than 500 Ming troops is like a rolling iron stream, surging forward.
Lu Xiangsheng's movements were fully watched by Dolgon, and also by Duoduo, who was commanding in the front, but at this time, the various formations were extremely chaotic, and they saw everything but had no way to stop it immediately.
I could only watch Lu Xiangsheng lead the armored cavalry and cut diagonally into the formation through the gap between the big formations.
"Woo————"
Amid the rumbling hooves of horses, the low sound of trumpets rushed into the sky!
The spears that were originally carried on the shoulders of the Ming army's cavalry formation had been flattened, and the sharp spears pointed directly at the frightened soldiers in the front of the Qing army.
Thousands of horseshoe belts of earth and blood flew everywhere, and spears and spears lined up like a moving steel forest.
The armor soldiers of the Qing army are indeed vicious, but no matter how vicious they are, they are human after all.
If it is a human being, it will be afraid, and it will be afraid.
Facing the sharp riding spear in the hand of the knight on horseback, seeing the scene of thousands of horses galloping, and looking directly at the tall war horse stepping on, how not to be afraid, how not to be frightened.
The tenacity of the Ming army in front of them far exceeded that of any Ming army they had encountered before, and their pride and self-confidence had already been exhausted in several hours of fierce battles.
The Qing army, which was on the right flank and was led by Lu Xiangsheng, was completely disintegrated in an instant, and even the battle guards behind them had no way to stop their rout.
Lu Xiangsheng drove the war horse, taking advantage of the victory to pursue, his eyes were staring at the silver-white Da Qi in the front, as long as he could make the Da Qi retreat, he could cause the Qing army to shake, and then gain a chance to breathe, and dampen the Qing army's sharpness.
As long as it can force that big shot back......
As long as you can force that big shot to retreat!
……
It's just that......
The Qing army's large array was difficult to shake at all, and the silver-white daqi not far away from the line of sight showed no sign of movement at all.
Dolgon's eyes were cold, and he stared expressionlessly at the crimson pole not far away.
Lu Xiangsheng has many cavalry under his command, he naturally will not be unguarded, leaving this flaw, and he has already arranged for this.
Lu Xiangsheng led the armored cavalry and smashed one Qing army after another, but was soon overwhelmed by the Qing army that was pouring in like a tide.
In the chaos, there were constantly armored horsemen who followed Lu Xiangsheng and fell off their horses, drowning in the crowd.
In the middle of the Qing army, the flag was flying, Dolgon kept giving orders, and the huge military array was like an arm under his command, and all the waves of offensives organized by Lu Xiangsheng were resolved.
The day is getting westerly, and the blood-red sunset is gradually fading, but the blood outside Jiazhuang has no sign of fading.
"Whew-"
Lu Xiangsheng exhaled a breath of turbidity, his eyes were blood-red, and the wind and snow confused his eyes.
The place where I felt the blood was rushing before the charge was already numb at this moment.
His limbs and face were stiff, and he was already bruised by the cold wind.
Lu Xiangsheng's face did not have half of the joy that broke out.
Lu Xiangsheng rode on the war horse and looked around the battlefield.
Less than half of the 500 armored horsemen who were originally following him in the battle behind him were injured.
And the whole battlefield was also chaotic, the mournful screams of the dying people, the roars between the two sides of the warring, and the symphony of golden drums and horns all echoed in Lu Xiangsheng's ears, disturbing his mind in a chaotic mood.
The southern camp had collapsed, and the Qing army broke through the formation from the southern camp and rushed straight in.
The army has collapsed, like a sky collapse......
All around is a hellish scene, the army formation collapsed, even the soldiers still have the heart to fight to the death, but there is no way to stop the rout.
Among the Qing army, those elite armor cavalry had already entered the formation along the gap.
"Overseer."
Lu Xiangsheng followed the prestige, and he saw the bloodied Tiger Dawei.
Hu Dawei was covered with blood at this time, his armor had already been soaked, and there were several feathered arrows on his armor, which were covered with scars.
The collapse of Nanying is not to blame for Hu Dawei, there are only more than 3,000 people under Hu Dawei's command, and it is already his best to be able to carry several times more enemy troops for such a long time.
"Although Jiannu broke the formation, but it has not yet been encircled, and now it can still get away, after the death battle for the superintendent, please leave the superintendent first!"
Hu Dawei grabbed Lu Xiangsheng's reins and pleaded again.
"The general is dead, and there is no precedent."
Lu Xiangsheng shook his head slowly, the army was defeated and retreated, as the main general, what face did he have to live in the world.
"Let's go, what Jiannu wants is the head of my Lu Xiangsheng, take this opportunity, you may still break out."
Lu Xiangsheng pulled back the reins of the horse, turned his head away, moved away from Hu Dawei's body, and turned to look ahead.
Jia Zhuang was like a huge meat grinder, constantly filled in, constantly entered, but soon disappeared without a trace, all turned into inactive minced meat and blood.
In front of the two armies, the dead were piled up over their knees, and there were so many corpses on the ground that the corpses covered almost the entire front.
Blazing blood pooled on the ground, and bursts of heat rose from between them.
Lu Xiangsheng's eyes were blood-red, and his heart was like a knife.
That's his soldiers, that's his soldiers, those are his soldiers!!
He Lu Xiangsheng He De and how can he have a group of such soldiers.
Lu Xiangsheng clenched his teeth and grabbed the Yanling knife in his hand, his whole body trembling.
Two lines of bloody tears dripped down his cheeks and fell onto the ground of blood.
After all, I can't go back to heaven......
So far, although there are regrets, but there is no shame.
Hu Dawei clenched his teeth, his expression changed several times, and finally he pulled the reins and turned the horse's head, and he took the dozens of remaining family members under his command, and he was also ready to follow Lu Xiangsheng forward.
Lu Xiangsheng raised the Yanling knife in his hand and was about to give the final military order, but the sudden roar behind his ears interrupted the order he was about to make.
"Buzz ————"
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The thick drums sounded one after another, hitting Lu Xiangsheng's chest like a heavy hammer.
Lu Xiangsheng's heart suddenly tightened, just because he was too familiar with this drum sound.
Lu Xiangsheng turned his head to look in the direction where the drum beat came, and then froze on the spot.
On the northern horizon, a dazzling red tide rose and fell like a wave, and one after another crimson flags appeared in front of his eyes.
The rumbling roar swept from afar, and in the field of vision, the Ming cavalry of the brigade was galloping from afar.
The military music was loud in the deafening sound of war drums, and it was still clear even from a distance of several miles.
"All of you are united, the mountains are ...... Shocking!! ”
Half an hour late, I woke up and wrote the second chapter immediately
