Chapter 58
Bai Lang slept in the horse-drawn cart during the day, and swayed around at night to kill deserters, but no one dared to run for three days. However, Xiangyang is almost here, Bai Lang looked at his men, "There are probably about four thousand five hundred people in name..... Removing the original shorts, there are only three thousand, seven or eight hundred at most. That's enough! It's just a one-time army anyway. Bai Lang stopped and jumped on his horse and swayed back and forth in front of his own army.
His eyes saw there, and the soldiers and generals there flinched slightly, and even the war horses under their crotches snorted and fell backwards. Bai Lang looked up at the military flag that had been raised—it was a winged flying tiger flag, but this tiger was white. Bai Lang turned his horse's head and looked at Zhang Xianzhong's camp in the distance, while the soldiers who had followed him early were beheading Zhang Xianzhong's captured horse on the side, and blood flowed under his horse's hooves.
Bai Lang glanced down and hummed a little song gently, others couldn't hear it, but he himself was clear, "The five-star red flag is fluttering in the wind...... How loud the victory song is. It's a pity that there is neither a five-star red flag behind him, nor is the Ming court a country he is familiar with, "It's better than a tartar, and it's better than a thief." He muttered, and with a slight grip of his legs, the horse neighed and trotted.
At this time, there were still more than ten miles away from Zhang Xianzhong's camp, and Bai Lang had already begun to urge the horses to advance, and he did not reorganize the army, let alone assign routes, and even said who would attack first and who would divide into several rounds of attacks - in his opinion, it was just a trap, let him command, Bai Lang really had no experience in this area, and it was better to simply take them in a wave than to distribute them indiscriminately. The horses' hooves were in formation, and because of the trot, the infantry could keep up with them at a brisk pace.
In advance, the men and horses had eaten enough dry food, and these days they were all eating and drinking to their heart's content under Bai Lang's orders, and the dry food for ten days had been eaten up in just five days, and now before this breakthrough, it was just the time to eat up. If you don't want to starve to death, you have to go to the enemy camp to get food. However, even so, when Bai Lang was advancing with people, there were still infantry and cavalry secretly leaving the team......
Bai Lang, who took the lead, naturally knew about it, but he just laughed it off and didn't care about it. The journey of more than ten miles was almost there after more than an hour. "Stop! Attack with me in a moment!" Bai Lang let the soldiers who were still following him rest, there were about 3,000 people, and Zhang Xianzhong's army in front had already come out of the camp and lined up, and these eight kings were also old in battle, and they were already ready to besiege the city and send reinforcements.
It's just that Bai Lang marched too fast, and the army arranged on his periphery had already reached a mile and a half in front of the camp before it was in place, "This officer and army are desperate?" said a thief general.
Bai Lang carried his knife at the forefront of the whole army, and did not make any mobilization preparations, and after seeing that the time was almost up, he signaled the soldiers around him to blow the horn, and then he took the lead and began to trap the battle. "Everyone and horses are wearing heavy armor, and they are easy to do. "This should be the text that will record this battle in the future. Bai Lang was still wearing the chain mail inside as before, the mountain armor outside, the red cloak on the back of the tiger's mouth phoenix wing helmet on his head, the green dragon glaive knife in his hand, and the war horse was still wearing a half-body vest, and he directly crashed into the enemy array.
The four-foot blade swept through with incredible force, and the blow with the blessing of internal force smashed the spear array used to defend against the horse formation—yes, not those spearheads, but directly shattered under the powerful force. And after the heavy body of the war horse crashed into the battle array, there was a sound of broken bones - people wearing double armor horses wearing horse vests, and this war horse was originally a northwest horse, the weight of people and horses had already passed a thousand catties, and the force of this collision was not too fast, and it was not something that mortals could stop it.
Zhang Xianzhong has been a rogue for many years, not to mention anything else, this excellent armor soldier can also make up a few sets. These armor soldiers are basically equipped by his righteous son and cronies, but in front of Bai Lang, what is the use of such armor soldiers? The Qinglong Glaive Knife is not only a sharp way to kill the enemy, but also weighs eighty-two catties and can be used as a stick to kill people—so Bai Lang is not afraid of such a thing as slashing at the hard armor blade. Bai Lang rushed into the military formation, and his war horse collided and trampled on it, making this battle formation a mess. And the speed at which Bai Lang kills people is also appalling.
Now he is very good at using a long-handled broadsword, and the skills fed by human life and the pressure on the battlefield have allowed Bai Lang's skills to grow rapidly. One hand applies power to the shaft and the other hand, and the two hands can easily change the path of the knife at any time, and it is much smoother and easier to use than to slash hard - as for the strength, the weight of this knife is enough, and once it is danced, it is extremely powerful. Therefore, the speed of killing is really fast, and the knife flowers are circling left and right, and there are waves of blood rolling.
At this time, there was an angry roar, and someone in front of him rode a black horse to kill, and he saw that the horse was also a man like an iron tower, holding a black iron spear and killing towards Bai Lang. "Oh, don't you think there are such people who dare to die among this thief?" Bai Lang laughed, rode his horse to meet the knife and handed it to his left hand, and when the two horses intersected, Bai Lang's right paw stretched out, and he grabbed the pole behind the spearhead, and pushed it backwards. The warrior among the thieves was pried up from the saddle...... The two horses staggered, and the man was torn off his horse.
This is also a big man, how can he also look like a hundred and eighty pounds, and now he firmly grasps the spear shaft with both hands, and the slightly curved spear shaft is held in Bai Lang's right hand, and he is holding the spear shaft in the air. The war horse under Bai Lang's crotch was no longer bearable, Bai Lang was keenly aware of this, and immediately let go. The man fell with the spear, but failed to fall to the ground, for his head was caught by the white waves. "What's your name? Forget it...... It's just a thief, and the name can only shame my father!"
With that, Bai Lang's hand claws exerted force, and he immediately grabbed the man's skull, just like a real tiger claw, leaving broken claw marks on the skull. Then Bai Lang shook his hand and threw the person's body aside, but at the same time picked up the iron spear that the person had been holding in his hand. "This iron spear is also about twenty pounds, which can be regarded as a brave general. Bai Lang handed the iron spear to his left hand, his right hand Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and the left hand iron spear began to break through again.
And at this time, those Ming troops have also entered the scattered rogue front army - the courage of the white waves also shocked them, and the chaotic thief front army in front of them represents military merit - until now, the official army is still confident that they can defeat tens of thousands of rogue army, this kind of thing has happened not once or twice. The nameless person killed by Bai Lang seems to be quite famous among the thief army, and he is afraid that he is a rare brave general, but he has become a corpse in front of Bai Lang, and the thief army in front of him has begun to flee without waiting for Bai Lang to break through.
Then it's simple, drive the defeated army to attack......
