Chapter 35: Becoming a Tiger

A crack broke out in the cloudy sky, and dazzling sunlight erupted from behind the clouds, dispelling the gloom on the earth. In the battle formation with flags flying on both sides, the blood is still hot, and the air is even more horizontal.

There were more than 10,000 thieves in the two battalions of Hui and Zuo, charging and shouting to kill, divided into more than ten teams of 1,000 people, each old team led a while, and the spear was swung and the axe arrived. The cavalry in front of the formation rushed around, and the bows and arrows and fire guns were fired in the official formation, and the arrows and fire bullets galloped out, and it was difficult to stop its front at all.

Although they didn't know what the results of Gao Yingen's battle were, they could see that they had already won a battle, otherwise it would be impossible for the officers and troops to stop outside the mountain.

When the official army first came into contact with the thieves for a short time, they could still be evenly divided, but they could slowly encounter the impact of the thieves' cavalry in turn, and gradually showed their decline, and between the advance and retreat of the cavalry, there were thousands of thieves who were dragged behind

How could Zuo Liangyu not know that as long as there was a gap in the defensive formation he had put up, the thief cavalry would immediately follow and attack in a big way? He beat and kicked, urged his own soldiers, expelled all the guards around him, fought to the death, and then looked around, looking for life.

Yang Kai shouted and ordered the old brother who raised the flag behind him, and pressed straight forward, and the cavalry behind him suddenly scattered, like a huge net, viciously crashing into the official army's defensive formation.

On his left, Zhao Hu faced the officers and soldiers who were opening and closing vertically and horizontally, and bravely marched forward, and entered the camp to lead the brothers behind him to rampage, only to see the long lance iron spear piercing back and forth.

On the right is Cao Mang, although he was brave in the previous battle, it took a lot of strength, and the same is true of the brothers behind him, although he is still sprinting hard, compared to Zhao Hu, who was easy to fight before, it is no longer as good.

Han Bin, who fell far behind him, took his bow and pulled the string, aimed at the leader of the official army with the most fierce momentum, and shot six arrows in a row, shooting six shots and six hits, and the offensive that the official army had just organized collapsed instantly.

In the military formation, Zuo Liangyu had beads of sweat on his forehead, he deeply regretted what he had decided before, but at this time, what was the use of regretting?

He would never allow himself to die at the hands of this group of filthy thieves, and in a hurry, he drew his knife in a panic, startling the soldiers around him who thought he was going to kill again, but he did not see him speak or make any movements, only that his hand carrying the knife was trembling.

Before the words fell, a loud shout broke out from the flanks, and when they heard the reputation, it turned out that Zhao Hu and Luo Dai collided fiercely together, like enemies seeing each other, and their eyes were red.

In the battle outside the city, Zhao Hu carried out the task of luring the enemy, was chased all the way by the front camp of Luo Dai's array, and was finally forced to break into the fire city, so he escaped, he naturally would not blame Yang Kai for that downfall, and he was even more confident in his heart, if it was a dignified formation, the two armies were facing each other, he was worthy of anyone, and he had accumulated this aggrieved anger in his heart.

But he was roaring in his heart, so why wasn't Luo Dai? In front of him, he threw the head of one of his subordinates into the battle, and this humiliation was also in his heart.

Seeing Zhao Hu rushing up this time, his heart was full of blood, he jumped out of his horse, and said with a straight lance: "Come up with me, among the thieves, there is no one as brave as him, stab him for me!" ”

Zhao Hu didn't say a word, but no one screamed, and Le Ma rushed straight in front of Luo Dai, in such a chaotic battle, what he thought was to sentence Zuo Liangyu to death with the strength of one person.

When he stood at the foot of the mountain, he saw Yang Kai frequently looking at the north side, and naturally he could also think that the enemy on the north side was the biggest trouble in their hearts, and the only uncertain factor in the formation of the killing officer army was that the enemy could be captured, and this old feud and new grudge were knotted together to make it more courageous.

However, after all, he was still young, and the experience of coming in and fighting again and again gave him a lot of courage, and he looked down on the enemy, and when the horses and lances of both sides exchanged blows, he was secretly frightened in his heart. Luo Dai was not the crooked melon and cracked jujube that Zhao Hu had killed before, and after a few rounds, the two sides were evenly matched.

After more than ten rounds, Luo Dai finally relied on the strength of the crowd to suppress this bandit who was almost invincible in his previous bravery, but at this time, two cold arrows flew in, and the middle of the hips of the two horses jumped, and a gap was revealed next to Zhao Hu, only to hear him scold viciously:

"Enter your mother, don't dare to fight alone!"

With a loud scolding, Zhao Hu ignored him anymore, turned his horse and retreated a few steps, fused with the brothers who were fighting hard behind him, and with the offensive of Yang Kai, Cao Mang and others who rushed into the belly of the official army's formation, he rushed straight to Zuo Liangyu's prancing horse where the commander of the Chinese army was located, as if he wanted to repeat the decapitation action of winning the commander in the thousands of troops in Shaanxi.

At this time, Zuo Liangyu, who saw that Luo Dai was expected to win the battle and regarded the north as his way of escape, suddenly widened his eyes, he was really a shameless traitor, and he wanted to come to me to vent his anger?

Looking at the front formation, the thieves of the two battalions of Hui and Left successfully completed the impact of several rounds of cavalry, and they had completely waited for all the slightly slower foot soldiers behind them, their strength was absolutely superior, and their own formations were in chaos, and they moved forward, and they encountered the corpses and heads of their own soldiers, and gradually collapsed.

It is difficult to remember the number of soldiers who died under the horseshoe people, and they were too busy to take care of themselves, and they were killed one by one. With such a chaotic formation, even if Han Xin is reincarnated, he will not be able to return to the sky.

The division of ten thousand soldiers, seeing that he was about to be buried in his hands, he had already expected that after this battle, even if he did not die, it would become a joke of the Ming Court military attache group.

Under the impulse, he had the urge to swing a knife at his throat to show his chastity.

But it seems that God has mercy and wants to save his life. Luo Dai originally wanted to chase Zhao Hu away, but after the bloody and impulsive battle, reason quickly returned to him, they were already doomed to defeat on all fronts in this battle, even if he caught up at this time, what if he could really kill Zhao Hu? Or a death.

He immediately changed his mind, turned around his horse, and led the soldiers behind him to kill, and while holding his gun, he did not forget to shout:

"General Zuo, the situation is completely hopeless, don't leave now, let alone when!"

Just this roar, Zuo Liangyu immediately came back to his senses and gave up the idea of suicide. As if he had exhausted the courage of this life, he clenched the Tao in his hand, stretched out his other hand above his head, took off his helmet and threw it to the ground:

"I, Zuo Liangyu, am guilty, but I want to live and die with all the troops, everyone, follow General Luo's array, break through the formation, and kill!" He waved his sword, and the handsome flag pressed north.

This group of officers and soldiers who were not actively attacking actually returned to their glory as if they were withdrawing, giving birth to an invincible momentum, and rushed for their lives in the direction pointed by the commander's banner. Although the three battalions of the thieves came out together, and the two battalions of Hui and Left were outflanked from the flank and rear, the two wings were still their empty place, and the south side was suppressed by Cao Mang, Wang Biao and others. They simply struggled to organize a strong attack, so they were beaten back one after another.

But the north side is the side of the official army's prestige, and there is Luo Dai, a brave pioneer, and Zhao Hu led people into it, which really made his position chaotic.

But when he pointed the horse lance sharply at Zuo Liangyu of the Chinese army, the cavalry of the official army was able to breathe, and in the short moment when everyone's eyes were on Zuo Liangyu, they had already broken out of the formation.

Such an opportunity, of course, Zuo Liangyu would not let it go, and immediately ordered the remaining generals in the army to come closer, led by a few generals, and break through. Ignoring the remaining Ming army, which was unable to escape, he walked away.

Zhao Hu knew that he had made a big mistake, and he wanted to lead his brothers behind him to rush over, in a vain attempt to save the fighter with his own strength, but he was stopped by Yang Kai behind him hysterically.

Their achievements this time exceeded their previous expectations several times, which was gratifying enough, and even shocked the government and the opposition enough, and there was no need to increase casualties in vain, especially to the north, where it was no longer their position. It is better to concentrate on dealing with the remaining besieged enemies.

Yang Kai looked at Zuo Liangyu's back, and sighed secretly in his heart, this person has gone through this difficulty, and in the future, he will not become the generation of Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting, and he will probably become a cowardly person who supports the army.

There were about four or five thousand people who broke through the siege, and the three armies approached the encirclement, and the rest knew that they had become abandoned pawns, and finally stopped holding on and surrendered one after another.

The thieves in the Hui and Left battalions, in order to show their prestige, also rushed to kill for a while, and several leaders of the officers and soldiers were even arrested and taken out, and their bodies were mercilessly dismembered to death.

As for the rest, He Jin gave an order to cut off the palm of his left hand and put it in the camp again, so as to prevent them from being capricious and doing bad things in the future.

Hearing this order, he didn't know where to snatch a horse, Yan Hou, who was riding on it, felt cold in his heart, and subconsciously withdrew his hand, Yang Kai also disagreed with his order, and shouted that it was inappropriate.

For a while, all the thieves who had sought to survive in the struggle focused their eyes on him, but their eyes were not too shocked, more of an admiration.

Previously, when Yang Kai rushed in front of the formation, he had already been shot in the shoulder by a cold arrow, and at this moment, the arrow was still not pulled out, but only cut off by him, and the blood had soaked his clothes, and even seeped red into the saddle he was sitting on.

But from beginning to end, he never retreated to the rear like Gao Yingen or other leaders, but was more courageous, just afraid that he could not die in front of his brothers.

There is a master like this, how can the people below not admire?

After he shouted, he put the knife back into its sheath, and gently refused Han Bin and the others to follow, grabbed the horse and moved forward, and under the attention of a group of descendants, he came to the body of Lao Huihui and Zuo Jinwang.

"Brother Yang, the wound on your shoulder ......" He Jin was not angry because Yang Kai opposed his order, and first paid attention to his injury.

Lao Hui got straight to the point and asked directly: "Does Brother Yang want to bring this batch of soldiers under his command?" ”

Yang Kai showed them a stiff and ugly smile, first signaling that the injury on his body was only a few liters of blood, and it was fine, and then said: "Yang Xingxing's thoughts, it is difficult to escape the fire of the plate. ”

"If you don't cut off their hands, Brother Yang won't be afraid that they will return to the official camp and betray us?" He Jin frowned slightly, suspicious in his heart.

Yang Kai glanced at the old man's eyes, saw that he was calm, and then looked back at the frightened pawn in his eyes, turned his head, his eyes were firm, and said:

"Yang Kai is willing to vouch for them! If there is a problem in the future, I will take care of it. ”
