The entire field outside the city of Xia Bo was covered by the army of the Ji State that connected the heavens and the earth, and the Ji *** array of the two camps outside the city also appeared in front of the Tang Army, and nearly 80,000 troops of the Ji State were woven into a huge pocket on the field.

Tens of thousands of Ji soldiers in front of the army have lined up in a neat military formation, and more Ji soldiers are surging out of the city gate of Xia Bo City, like a stream constantly converging into the huge military formation outside the city.

Wang Rong really didn't expect Zhao Luqi to be so impulsive, he just wrote a war letter, but it was like a hornet's nest, so that Zhao Luqi would go out of the city with a large army. With nearly 80,000 troops attacking at the same time, even the most sound command system in this era cannot be orderly, and the variables are too great.

Li Sujie turned his head to look at Wang Rong and asked with a puzzled expression, "What did you write in the letter?" Let this guy Zhao Luqi be crazy like this?"

Wang Rong was also stunned at this time, and he didn't expect that Zhao Luqi, the commander of the Ji army, would have such great courage and dispatch the whole army. He pondered for a moment and said, "I just greeted him in tactics with the female ancestors of the Zhao family, and said that after this battle, I will send people to Handan, Lingshou, and Xindu to worship the ancestors of the Zhao family."

Wang Rong said that he was worshipping, but he was afraid that he was going to dig up the ancestral grave of the Zhao family, to put it simply, he was digging up the grave and killing the corpse, and it was also written on the letter. No wonder Zhao Luqi attacked like crazy, Li Sujie looked at Wang Rong, I don't know whether to cry or laugh, the Ji army was indeed provoked out of the city, but the number of Ji troops out of the battle far exceeded the estimates of the Tang army generals.

However, when the two armies are fighting, the soldiers are not many but the fine, and the soldiers will not be brave but strategic.

Although the Ji army has a large number of people and the formation is relatively neat, there are too many miscellaneous soldiers and recruits in the Ji army. The war between the Ji State and the Japanese State sent troops killed and wounded countless elite soldiers.

Although Zhao Luqi is a child of the royal family of Ji who has studied military strategy since childhood, but judging from his past achievements, he is only a captain, and it is really difficult for him to be a general.

The nest carts and towers in the Tang army's formation were erected one after another, and the generals and their own soldiers boarded the equipment one after another.

In the front of the Tang army, accompanied by the sound of war drums, the first soldiers and the warriors were slowly marching forward in a neat queue, and Yuan Tiangang and Meng Song led all the elite of the army, tall and strong, and their bodies were covered with impermeable heavy armor.

They held a huge iron-clad shield in their left hand and a sharp spear in their right hand.

On either side of the large formations of the first and trapped armies were the infantry of the 2nd and 7th Divisions, dressed in patent leather armor, ring-arm leather armor on their arms and shoulders, and iron armours and iron leggings on their heads, and their spears in their hands were raised high into an endless forest of spears.

In the rear of the Tang army's front formation, there was a brigade of Tang army crossbowmen armed with strong bows and crossbows and carrying quivers.

On the outermost side of both sides of the Tang Army's military array, there were the cavalry of Jing Sai Yicong and the Seventh and Ninth Divisions led by Chu Luxu, the Bingzhou wolf cavalry and the cavalry of the Second Division under the command of Wuluo.

At that time, the Ji army had already finished arranging, and the crimson tide was almost all over the front of the Tang army, and after a while of silence, the sound of rapid war drums and trumpets sounded again.

A group of Ji sergeants wearing leather armor and holding halberds lined up in the military formation, and slowly walked forward amid the shouts of their respective generals. It's just that every dozen or so steps taken, the military formation becomes chaotic, and the general has to regroup.

It's just that when they passed under Zhao Luqi's high platform, everything became fanatical, and for a while, the sound of victory resounded throughout the entire military formation.

Because Zhao Luqi's personal soldiers displayed dozens of boxes on the high platform, inside the boxes were the counterparts of the Hebei State - gold cakes, and countless gold cakes were shining golden under the sun. At the same time, Zhao Luqi's personal soldiers shouted a bounty: "Kill a Tang sergeant and reward a golden cake!" Kill a Tang Army general and reward ten gold cakes! Kill a deputy general of the Tang Army and reward 100 pieces

Golden Cake! Kill the commander of the Tang Army and reward 500 gold cakes!"

You must know that the same weight of gold cake can be worth 20 yuan and 5 baht, which is enough for a soldier to support his family for a year.

Diametrically opposed to the excited ordinary soldiers were the Ji army halberd soldiers who were slowly walking behind them, these Ji army elites with heavy armor all over their bodies, they didn't have the extra strength to shout at this time.

The Ji army halberd soldier held the tall tower shield in his left hand, raised the halberd in his right hand, and the sharp ring head knife on his waist hit the iron armor with his movement, making a clanging sound. There was no shouting and fighting in the army formation of the Ji army's halberd soldiers, only the rustling sound of the nails.

The first wave of Ji soldiers who were thrown into the battlefield were tens of thousands of soldiers, and there were more than 2,000 Ji army halberd soldiers behind them.

There are also Ji cavalry galloping out of the gate on both sides of the camp, protecting the two wings of the Ji army infantry formation, once the Tang cavalry attack, these Ji cavalry will do their best to entangle the Tang cavalry.

The ant colony-like Ji soldiers shouted Wansheng wildly, and rushed madly towards the Tang army formation, which was waiting for the battle, and the distance between the two armies was less than a hundred steps at this time.

"Shoot the arrows!"

With the order of the general of the Tang Army's bow and crossbow array, the Tang Army's crossbowmen who first landed in the rear of the army formation pulled their bow stands and scattered arrows, and wave after wave of arrow rain were shot out, like a rain of arrows flying in the sky, piercing the sky and falling on the head of the Ji sergeant who was preparing to charge. jj.br>

The arrows of the Tang army overturned wave after wave in the front line of the attack, and the infantry of the Ji army, who were wearing leather armor and protected by round shields, suddenly fell to the ground.

The blow of the arrow made the morale of the Ji army drop in an instant, Zhao Luqi's reward is only a spiritual encouragement after all, and if you want to get the reward, you have to survive it, but death is just around the corner, it is so terrifying.

When death comes, few people are at ease. The generals and colonels of the Ji army hid behind their shields and shouted loudly, trying to gather the scattered Ji soldiers and soldiers to regroup, but with little success.

But none of this affected the military formation formed by the Ji army halberd behind them, and they still moved forward slowly, but the sound of armor rubbing became louder and louder.

Where Wang Rong was, the drumming stopped, the flag was not dancing, the shooting of the Tang army crossbowmen finally stopped, and ten arrows were shot in a row, and the Tang army crossbowmen had reached their limit, and the generals of the Ji army roared loudly, encouraging the scattered Ji soldiers around.

The army formation formed by the halberd soldiers of the Ji army is behind him, and any soldiers of the Ji army who dare to retreat will be ruthlessly killed by them, and in front of them is the Tang army formation like a hedgehog. Next to my ears is the encouraging voice of the generals and colonels of the Ji Army.
