Chapter Ninety-Five: Pit Killing

When Xiao Ge led the army into the front array of the legal army, Leliaojie also immediately ordered, and the light cavalry of the rear army pressed all the light cavalry, went around to both sides, and rushed to the rear of the Zhenbei army.

Immediately afterwards, the two thousand heavy armored infantry soldiers of the legal army pressed forward, and did not deal with the horse army led by Xiao Ge, but quickly rushed to the front of the two armies, wanting to break the front line of the Zhenbei army.

The battle situation turned directly to the white heat in an instant.

In the face of the menacing momentum of the legal army, the generals and colonels left by the Zhenbei Army for reserve also had floating faces and couldn't help but look at Meng Wei.

At present, most of the troops of the Zhenbei Army are gathered in front of the formation, the rear army of the Chinese army is weak, and the attacking enemy cavalry is more than 10,000 in one fell swoop, so they can't help but panic.

However, Meng Lian immediately stood still, completely unaware of the enemy's menacing attack.

"Order, jump, surprise soldiers, the whole army presses."

Shaoqing, always watching the battle situation, and then giving the commander's order.

The herald beside him didn't say a word, waving his flag and beating drums.

Gan Qu smiled excitedly, carried his double pickaxes, and killed the jumping soldiers.

"Throw!!"

But Gan Qu did not run to the front, but in the center, and at the sound of an order, all the jumping elites all jumped up in great strides, and after three steps, their bodies suddenly stagnated, and threw the spear in their hands forward.

The armor-piercing effect of throwing spears is stronger than that of arrows, but the range is not as good as that of bows and crossbows, but it is enough to use them now.

The spear was slashed across the stacks in front of the two armies, and landed at the densest concentration of the legal army.

Taking advantage of the fact that many of the legal troops were penetrated to the ground, Gan Qu rushed out wildly, and led a hundred or so people to the front of the battle.

"Leap!"

With a stomp on the ground, Gan Qu stepped on the ground and crossed the human wall and killed himself in the enemy's ranks.

And the rest of the jumping soldiers, there are very few who have this ability.

I saw more than 30 of them gathered in one place, and used their big shields to build a slope on their shield wall, and the brothers who threw their spears from behind rushed over, just stepped on the slope and jumped out, and landed in the enemy's formation.

There are some who were directly stabbed in mid-air by the legal army, but there are not a few who successfully fall into the enemy formation.

And after they fell into the enemy line, they also quickly played a role, stirring up flowers behind the legal formation.

In particular, the more than 20 people led by Gan Qu quickly swept away a piece of enemy troops, and collected all the brothers near the left, and more than 100 people directly set up a long snake formation in the legal army array.

Gan Qu flipped his hands and flew over, hooking down a lawyer with his left hand, and then handing out a short pickaxe in his right hand, stabbing another person behind him.

Then hook again, a bear force, was played to the fullest, ordinary law soldiers, can not stop its attack fortunately, blocked, the next moment by another short pit flew away.

At present, the two armies are hedging, and no one's footsteps are non-stop for a moment, no one will avoid their feet, and eighty percent of the soldiers who fell to the ground have become meat pads, and those who have not died have been trampled to death when they have not been dead.

Ganqu led the human like a wandering snake, constantly passing in front of the legal army.

Seeing this, Liu Yu hurriedly led people to remove a section of the array in front of him, opened a portal, and the spearmen behind him lined up, and the two spears and spears stabbed out into the forest, and in an instant, they stabbed a small piece to make up for the foot soldiers of the law.

Immediately afterwards, the sword and shield hands stepped forward, the shield wall rose again, and the spearmen covered the formation, and the jumping soldiers turned around and killed.

Several times, in the time before the heavy armor and foot soldiers of the legal army pressed into battle, the Zhenbei army reaped a large number of passes, and the pressure was greatly reduced.

The offensive of the foot soldiers of the law gradually slowed down under this kind of killing, and the pace of the forward attack gradually became sluggish, and they did not dare to attack for a while.

And this also allowed the heavily armored foot soldiers, who had been moving slowly, to get an opportunity to line up the foot soldiers on both sides, quickly move forward, and press in the front.

"Withdraw!"

Gan bent over the field and didn't notice the specific situation, but Meng Jue had already led the team to arrive and reminded him.

Gan Qu quickly took the gap left for him by Liu Yu and led people back into the formation.

Liu Yu and Wang Hui, also with swords, shields and spearmen, relined their formations.

Although the battle time was not particularly long, the physical strength of the sword and shield hands and spearmen in front of the battle had dropped significantly, and the hands of many people holding weapons began to be a little numb and tremble.

It's just that even so, since Liu Yu and the others, no one in front of the battle has slacked off, and they dare not have a moment of relaxation, they are all full of energy, waiting for another wave of offensive from the approaching legal army.

At the same time, the light cavalry of the law also came from both wings, and ten thousand horses galloped forward, and the ground trembled.

"Bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of boulders flew down and smashed into the formation of the legal army's light cavalry, and a group of people turned on their horses, and the legal army's light cavalry came forward, and they became loose when they landed.

However, it is impossible to stop, the whole army has already started at a speed, and if it stops rashly, it will not only block the rear army's charge, but will also be more likely to be directly picked down by the rear army that has not had time to regain its momentum.

Moreover, although their array became loose, there were more than a thousand horsemen, and they pounced near the array of the Zhenbei Army, and they did not worry that the weak Chinese army of the Zhenbei Army would bring them too much hindrance.

The thought of making a contribution at the moment made many soldiers of the legal army red-eyed and like crazy wolves.

"guy, go!"

Li ordered the flag to dance, and a group of crossbowmen held the shields left by the jumping soldiers in their hands, and the first team transferred two people to hold shields, and the remaining three people killed the enemy with bows and arrows.

This time it was no longer a salvo, the soldiers of each army were looking for their own opponents, and the array of crossbowmen was scattered like chess, and they did not gather in one place.

The commander of the law army of 1,000 men brandished his long knife and slashed into the array of the Zhenbei army first, and killed several crossbowmen of the Zhenbei army head-on.

"Kill!"

A group of crossbowmen, two with shields in front of them, the three of them shot arrows at the commander of the Nalu Thousand Commanders.

The commander of the law army swung his sword and knocked the arrow down, and the war horse quickly rushed in front of the five people, and slammed into the two large shields, and the two of them fell directly away, and the war horse also neighed and stood upright.

Three crossbowmen of the Zhenbei Army directly drew their knives and rushed forward, two of them blocked the commander and cut down the long knife, and one of them stabbed the horse in the neck with a knife.

The war horse neighed and churned in pain, and the commander did not notice it for a while, and the strength in his hand was light, and he was blocked by the two of them, and he did not wait to be angry, but the long knife blocked the ground, jumped off the horse's back, and kicked the sneak attack horse out with one kick.

But the two of them with the shield also struggled to stand up at this time, and with their bows and arrows in their hands, two arrows shot down at him.

The commander of the thousand was unsteady on the ground, so he turned around and dodged, but after all, he was a little slower, and his left shoulder was nailed into his left shoulder by a feather arrow.

Without waiting for him to make any more movements, a nearby crossbowman directly dropped his horizontal knife, grabbed his knife-holding arm with both hands, and the other stabbed him in the waist with a horizontal knife.

Captain Ritsu flew up with two feet, kicked the two of them into the air, and a long lance appeared in front of him, and with a pop, stabbed him in the throat.

Similar scenes appeared on the battlefield one after another, and Meng's 300 pro-soldier battalions entered the battlefield, and under the cooperation of the crossbowmen, they quickly slashed into the formation of the legal army.

An even more tragic scene took place behind the light cavalry of the French army.

I saw that behind the Zhenbei Army in the town of Zhencheng, there were constantly flying stones falling, and soon a burst was not small, but now the battlefield is not heard by many people The click sounded, the left and right wings of the Zhenbei Army array collapsed for a while, smoke and dust rose everywhere, and quickly rushed to kill the forward legal army light horse, like a dumpling, fell into the two-zhang deep pit, and was the spear and stake underneath, and the gourd was strung together.

The entire array of legal light cavalry disappeared directly from it, and there were still people in the rear who were pushed and fell by the legal light cavalry who did not know the situation and did not stop speed, or were directly unintentionally provoked and killed, and it took a long time for all to react, stop the speed of the horse, and stop.

The individual area of these pits is not large, but it is only half a foot long and wide.

But the number is very large, as if the burial pits that have been dug have been dug, one next to the other, and if one collapses, it will drag both sides down and connect with each other.

On the side of the Zhenbei Army, taking advantage of this, the jumping soldiers retreated, and with the cooperation of Li Qi's troops, they rushed into the enemy army and quickly separated them, and the elite cavalry of the three hundred pro-military battalions repeatedly rushed to kill and start harvesting.

From time to time, a member of the general colonel was sent out by Meng Lian and transferred to the field to face the masters and fierce generals in the legal army.

The Zhenbei Army has been receiving the news for more than half a year, how can it be that there is no preparation at all, and preparing for war is not only to train soldiers and prepare food and grass equipment.

On the side of the legal army, seeing this situation, whether it was the Leliao Festival in front of the battle, or the Chiyan Gu Liuru and others in the distance, they were all shocked.

The losses suffered by the light cavalry on both wings are much greater than the foot soldiers who had been fighting anxiously before the battle.

In fact, they were already amazed when the stone cannon could attack both wings.

These large-scale equipment can be described as necessary to defend the city, before the two armies lined up the array, how could the legal army not think about whether the four large and small cities of Zhenbei Pass could quickly go out of the city to meet the help of the Zhenbei army.

According to past experience, Daqin's large-scale equipment for defending the city is only equivalent to their range, and the distance listed by the Zhenbei Army has long been exceeded.

But they didn't expect that Meng Lian gave them this hand, and now the range of this stone cannon is about twice as long as before, which can be called terrifying.

If there is only this stone cannon, it is not enough to really control the current battle situation, because neither Leliao Festival nor Chiyan Gu Liuru has the intention of ordering the withdrawal of troops.

But now that this pit has appeared, it has really scared many people.

This is true of the soldiers of the legal army before the battle, and the same is true of the noble generals of the legal dynasty after the battle.

Normal battles, strength and weakness, all have a fight, bows, crossbows, stone cannons, etc. can also fight luck, and even to resist and dodge.

But in the face of this kind of trap that swallowed three or four thousand people in an instant, and I don't know how many there are, it has not been activated, no one wants to bet on whether they will encounter it, and no one dares to be lucky, and they can live in this trap.

Even if there is only one more, no one wants to meet it.

"Your Majesty, order the withdrawal of troops."

Jin Yeming looked at Chi Yan Gu Liuru, who suddenly got up, and said.

Chi Yan Gu Liuru's eyes narrowed slightly, sat down, and allowed him to go.

The drums and trumpets of the legal army were thundering, and the flag of the Leliao Festival was waved, and he was ordered to retreat.

The light cavalry of the legal army, which had long lost the spirit of war, took the first step and quickly withdrew.

But the foot soldiers in front of the army wanted to withdraw, but it was not so easy.

Meng Jue led people to rush out of the formation, entangled the heavy armor foot soldiers of the legal army, Xiao Ge led the army to surround the back, and the sword and shield hands and spearmen covered up under the leadership of Liu Yu and Wang Hui, and swore to leave the two thousand heavy armor here.

Seeing this, Leliao Jie personally led the light cavalry back, crossed the defeat and retreated, and stepped forward to rescue.

At the previous moment, Shangzhen Town had quietly opened, and a light cavalry team composed of 5,000 people in various colors had also rushed to the battlefield from the city.

Although the order to withdraw troops was issued, the fighting did not stop directly in a moment.

And just when the drums and horns of the legal army's withdrawal sounded, in the north, the other half of the wolf cavalry led by Xiang An, the general of Longwu, who was seventy miles away from the legal army's camp, had already gathered in one place and ran south.
