Boom!

Knock knock! Knock knock!

The sun shone obliquely across the vast field, and the sound of the vibrating war drums came slowly with the black tide at the end of the sky and earth.

The huge dust filled the sky, in the gray, the mighty army array spread all over the mountains and fields, the banner stretched for several miles, covering the sky and the sun, and the army below to maintain the formation forward spread horizontally left and right, as long as more than ten miles, occupying the plains, forests, and mountain passes......

An army of 100,000 advanced, and the first to come was the slave army.

Countless cloth boots with their feet across the dry earth, the fur armor of wild beasts, the captain of the slave army inlaid with animal teeth and claw-tip leather helmets raised a spear and shouted, and thousands of slave soldiers behind him were shouting, and the 10,000 slave army was divided into several layers and two phalanxes to advance forward, and the formation was mostly foot soldiers.

Layers of figures, behind the heads of the crowd, left and right, are arranged to protect the Chinese army of Long Xiang and Hu Ben, and then the Shibuya army on the left and right, and finally the surplus soldiers of each army formation are listed as the rear formation, covering the back road, the banner of Yan Guo, and the handsome flag of He Jinchen, at this time, the Chinese army is standing, accompanied by a huge chariot slowly moving forward.

The mighty 100,000 soldiers and horses slowly advanced, the footsteps continued to form a roaring unison, and the large drums pulled by the number of carriages also moved slowly forward in this golden morning, beating rhythmic drums.

During the advance, from time to time, scouts galloped around the formation on horseback, reporting the surrounding situation.

He Jinchen, who was luxuriously dressed and armored, stood on the chariot, he raised his white head, looked at the information that had just been passed in his hand, frowned slightly, and then there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that they want to nail my 100,000 soldiers and horses here and use other methods to break the situation. Cavalry detour? But their back road has been cut off, and the five thousand Yanshan Iron Horsemen are behind them, don't they know it? ”

After overnight analysis and discussion, the content of the intelligence has probably been clearly understood by the rebel army in front of him, but for the commander of the first army, the general of the imperial court, He Jinchen did not dare to relax the slightest vigilance, the cavalry that did not appear on the other side, and the Taiping Dao believers, after all, they still have to be vigilant.

Li Dang, the commander of the Central Protector Army and the Tiger Ben Army, approached on horseback: "General, there is news from the Yanshan Iron Cavalry that they have been wandering around Ding'an City for five miles, cleaning up all the vehicles entering and leaving Ding'an City. ”

"Hehe, then Yanshan Iron Cavalry will gallop over there, it is estimated that as soon as today passes, this rebel army knows that the back road has been cut off, and it should be in chaos."

Hearing the rebels waiting in the distance opposite, there was a sound of shouting to stop, He Jinchen put on an iron helmet with golden edges: "...... don't have to reason with them, pull out the ghost cannon, get ready, give the other party a note first!" ”

The herald waved the command flag in his hand around the big flag, played the flag, in the stretching phalanx, the sound of the prepared horn sounded in the sky, the Chinese army kept the equipment, a captain waved his knife and roared, hundreds of soldiers of the Longxiang army pushed more than a dozen instruments called the ghost gate cannon to move slowly, there were four wooden wheels below, a big crossbow above, the grimace of the green face and fangs opened its mouth, and the thick crossbow arrow was poking out sharp arrows

"Roar! Roar! The slave army separated more than a dozen gaps, allowing these ghost cannons to step forward, and they raised their steel knives and frantically slapped their shields and let out a fierce scream.

They have a distant field of vision, and the word 'Ding'an' is written on the side of the banner, Dong Zhuo, Le Jin, Zhang You, Xu Qinghu and others will gather around Su Chen and Guo Jia, quietly listen to the latter's deployment, and then return to their respective armies, after everyone leaves, on the back of the big black horse, Su Chen stroked the mane on the horse's neck, and looked at the military formation with ballistas in the distance.

"They have not fought for many years, and there is no doubt that they have new soldiers, but they have more excellent weapons and armor than me, and the number of them, I have few people, and there are few cavalry, and the cavalry must be used in practice...... We must create opportunities for Lu Bu and Zhang Liao! Su Chen looked over there and said quietly, in fact, he squeezed the reins nervously.

This is the first time he has led troops to fight against 100,000 soldiers and horses in the imperial court, so it is strange that he is not nervous.

Compared with the other party, he can't afford to lose.

"Give a message to the two generals, Le Jin and Dong Zhuo, try not to advance in a straight line!"

Guo Jia didn't speak, but just summoned the herald, who rode away at a gallop At the same time, on the opposite side, the imperial army was holding a shield to escort the ballista slowly advancing over.

Here, Le Jin observed the speed of the other party's movement on horseback, calculated the distance in his heart, and at about four hundred zhang, he turned over and dismounted, slapped the horse's buttocks, and let it leave.

In the short-handed battle, he didn't need to ride a horse, he took a shield from the side, walked up to the second row with the soldiers around him, took the iron gun behind him with his backhand, set up the iron shield, and waited in line with his 10,000 foot soldiers.

"Divide the formation!"

He let out a low shout, and the order was quickly conveyed layer by layer in the array, and suddenly turned into two formations, between the formations, two steps between people left and right, and the order of Lejin rose again, "Attack!" ”

The moment the words came out, the slave army advancing in front sounded the order.

Bang Bang –

The strings sounded one after another, and more than a dozen black shadows flew sideways in rows. The shield guard array on this side moved forward quickly, and when he heard the whistling sound, he almost subconsciously tightened his body, and the spear-like crossbow bolt was directly nailed to the shield, and in the next second, it shattered and splashed, and the comrades behind it were pierced through, nailed to the third-person shield and knocked the person away, before falling to the ground.

Fifteen crossbow arrows killed ten people in an instant, and the rest were weakly inserted fifty zhang away in front of Su Chen's army due to the angle and gap.

"There is actually such a thing as a ballista......" Su Chen frowned as he looked at the crossbow bolt that was diagonally inserted on the ground in the distance, and after a while, he turned his head and ordered the herald: "Urge Lejin to speed up the process and let General Dong prepare." ”

Everything went on in an orderly manner.

The battlefield advancing in front of it, another round of crossbow arrows whistling by, bringing up more than ten blood flowers and lives, the distance between the two sides was very close, the fifteen ballistas quickly withdrew, the slave army restored the array, raised the shield and slowly advanced, the archers walked on both sides, grabbed the arrows and shot back at the sky, the arrows crossed the sky, and fell into the engagement line advanced by the Ding'an army.

The Ding'an army of 5,000 on both sides, the formation was evacuated, when the arrows flew, Le Jin shouted, the first two rows of foot shields turned up the shields in their hands to block the rain of arrows falling on the front line, blocking the sight of the moment, the arrows fell on the shield, and the sound of the bullets flying and smashing sound, all around were such sounds, and some people screamed and fell to the ground.

As soon as the rain of arrows came, the archers in the gun formation quickly stepped forward and returned fire with their bows in the same way.

The advancing slave army was in a dense formation, and suddenly splashed with pieces of blood, and many people screamed and fell down one by one, and the captain of the slave army wearing a leather helmet decorated with animal teeth tensed his body, blocked an arrow with his shield, swung his sword to cut it, and shouted loudly, "Meet the enemy!" ”

On the other side, Le Jin stood in the middle of the crowd, took a deep breath, put the iron mask on, blood welled up in his eyes, and raised his spear and roared hard.

"Battle!"

The next moment, the entire military formation seemed to know the words behind it, and followed by a roar: "First on—"

The voices converged, and the field buzzed.

In an instant, the military formations of the two sides increased their speed, stepped quickly across the ground, and rushed like a tide of rage, approaching a distance of several zhang, holding shields and knives, and the guns in the rear were erected.

The moment of contact –

The front row of the Ding'an army stepped on the shield, and the muscles of the whole body were tense to the extreme, Le Jin squeezed away the subordinates in front of him, rushed to the front, and shouted, "-Kill!" ”

The sound was then drowned out in a rumbling sound, one shield after another collided, and the soldiers behind the shields kicked out a layer of dirt under their feet, and the spears and steel knives of both sides slashed wildly at the opposite side in this moment, blood burst and splashed, heads flew away, stumps broke and fell to the ground, and the soles of the feet that were pushed stepped into the dirt.

"Kill me!"

In a bloody light, Le Jin jumped high, the iron shield in his hand blocked the spear that stabbed him, and the moment he fell, he used the shield to smash a slave army below the foot shield down, stepped on the opponent's body, and directly crashed into the opponent's gun formation, the iron spear in his hand passed through the body of a person, pushing the opponent to charge frantically.

The sword light and spear stabbed, he let go of the handle of the gun, and the relatively short body hid under the iron shield, the blade, the spear, slashed and stabbed the shield, he pulled out the ring knife at his waist, and from the dismount to shine on the knees of the people around him, a circle of cold light, in the crowd, a circle of figures fell, weapons fell, and stumps dragged blood lines to the ground.

The sound of countless fights stirring the front continued.

In the Ding'an army, the comrades in the front row were injured or killed in battle, and then they were filled by the people behind, the loose formation was close and tightened at this time, Le Jin got up from the ground, and his personal guards also entered the gap at this moment, and he casually slashed over the hysterical roar of the slave soldiers who rushed from the side: "Break through the defense line!" ”

The hysterical sound filled the human sense, and the rushing pro-soldier pulled Le Jin back to the front line, was kicked away by Le Jin, and then cut off the spear that stabbed diagonally with a backhand.

"Kill me!"

Le Jin's voice shouted again, and the top shield rushed into the array of slave soldiers.

In the chaotic sword light and gun forest, the shield slammed and shook the front, and a slave soldier slashed into the gap with a knife, bringing out blood splashed in his eyes, and when the Ding'an army infantry shield behind the opposite shield fell, someone rushed up to take over the position, and the top shield pushed the slave soldier back again, and then slashed down with a knife on the opponent's head.

"Greet, follow, and follow me into the ranks of the enemy army!"

The iron mask on Le Jin's face didn't know where it fell, he pushed the shield hard, kept swinging the knife, and after splitting a slave soldier, in his shaking sight, he seemed to see a captain in command, he wiped the blood on his face, grinned Bai Sensen's teeth, and then killed the other party.

Under the banner of the Ding'an Army, Su Chen's eyes stared at the front line that had become intertwined with canine teeth without blinking, and after a moment, he raised his hand and gave an order softly: "It's almost over, cover Lejin and let Dong Zhuo go on top." ”

On the left and right flanks of the Chinese army, an array of five thousand people each stood up from the ground, Dong Zhuo rode forward, spit on his hand and rubbed it, and took the serrated knife, "It's our turn." ”

He urged the horse to gallop out, and then shouted: "Xiliang!" ”

The formation of five thousand troops on each side moved.

"Xiliang!!"

At the same time as the neat shouts resounded, the five thousand soldiers of the two phalanxes that were running mightily spread out towards the front like a tide of rage.

North.

Yan Guojing's flag rolled, He Jinchen stood firmly on his battlefield, watched the battlefield situation with a tall posture, and saw the two arrays on the opposite side killing him, as if playing chess, and raised his hand.

"The general of the Su family really can't hold his breath."

He will also not be stingy, he raised his hand, the horn to transmit the message sounded, and the two wings of the huge Chinese army, the Shibuya army also moved, crossed both sides of the battlefield, and directly attacked the two phalanxes under the command of Dong Zhuo.

In the middle of the military formation, Su Chen looked at the sky, looked at Dong Zhuo, who had already handed over, tilted his head slightly, and looked at Dian Wei beside him.

“…… You can go on it too. ”

"Guo sacrificial wine, the main bus is for you!"

The giant man in iron armor turned over and dismounted, turned over a pair of large iron halberds behind him, like a demon god, and walked forward.
