Chapter 282 Aggression Like Fire
Fortunately, Yuan Shujun had many soldiers after all, and generals such as Ji Ling and Zhang Xun personally led the supervising team to kill the fleeing soldiers. If they retreated and advanced, they would be dead anyway, so the soldiers of Yuan Shujun had to fight to the death. front.
However, although Yuan Shu's army has not been defeated for the time being, Xu Rong's army is advancing indomitably, and the sharp momentum is like a cone coming out of the bag.
Zhang Xiu held the spear in his hand excitedly, and stared at Yuan Shu's general flag not far away. Ever since the defeat in Chang'an, Zhang Xiu felt ashamed and practiced spear skills at home day and night. Hearing Xu Rong's expedition, he immediately asked to accompany him .
Yuan Shu's general flag could be seen very close, and Zhang Xiu was very excited: "The infantry spread out to the two wings!"
Xu Rongjun's infantry split into waves and opened up a passage, and the five thousand Xiliang iron cavalry surrounded in the center could no longer bear the fighting spirit, and immediately cheered.
Zhang Xiu took the lead, pointing his spear at Yuan Shu.
"Runan Yuan, traitor to the country, kill him!"
Five thousand iron cavalry followed behind Zhang Xiu, like a tiger coming out of a cage, its power was earth-shattering, and the sound of galloping horseshoes rumbled, like the spear of a war god pointing directly at Yuan Shujun.
Yuan Shujun had been in the Central Plains for a long time, and he had never seen a large-scale cavalry charge. It seemed that the god of war was beating the ground, and his face turned pale with fright.
Counselor Yang Hong hurriedly said: "General Empress, the enemy's troops are in full swing. Please, General Empress, stay away for a while?"
Yuan Shu was dissatisfied: "The army is fighting here, how can a certain retreat?"
"Order the army to form formations to resist, shoot the enemy with bows and crossbows, and coordinate with spearmen, swords and shields to resist."
Yuan Shu's order was correct. If the infantry on the plain wanted to resist the cavalry mass charge, they had to form a dense formation and shoot with bows and crossbows. It is the unparalleled Qin crossbow formation in the world.
However, Yuan Shu misjudged the abilities of his subordinates. Yuan Shu's army looked ashen, and the orders of the generals at the grassroots level were inconsistent.
Seeing Zhang Xiu's five thousand cavalry galloping towards him, thousands of Yuan Shu's crossbowmen panicked and shot their bows and arrows before hearing the general's order.
Han Yin was furious: "I haven't said to shoot yet, why did you shoot the arrow?"
Thousands of arrow feathers formed an airtight arrow net and fell, but it happened to cover an open space not far in front of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. Only a few dozen arrows with slightly stronger power fell on the Xiliang Iron Cavalry. middle.
Zhang Xiu turned around and laughed loudly: "Have you seen it? The enemy is vulnerable!"
The five thousand Liangzhou cavalry laughed loudly, and their morale was even higher. The enemy soldiers were so nervous that they fired arrows before they got within range. They were like a group of recruits, nothing to worry about.
Seeing this, Yuan Shu was furious: "Han Yin is such an idiot! It's a big deal for me."
Han Yin hastily ordered the archers in the army to shoot again, but after only three shots before the battle, the Xiliang iron cavalry was already close at hand.
"kill!"
Zhang Xiu leaped into the formation with a spear, swept across thousands of troops with a long spear, and knocked down several Yuan Shujun in front of him. He forcibly opened a gap in the enemy's formation, and countless Xiliang cavalry rushed in through this gap. , Just like a small opening in a thousand-mile levee suddenly, a thousand-foot flood immediately poured into it, and the levee would be washed away.
The Xiliang iron cavalry was tall and powerful, and they borrowed their horsepower. Yuan Shujun's recruits panicked and were directly hit by the galloping horses and broke their bones. Suddenly, Yuan Shujun shouted and killed in the formation, and the horses neighed and cried. In one piece, countless Yuan Shu's troops had no intention of fighting, turned around and ran away, and the 10,000 troops were in a mess.
Han Yin, who was supervising the battle on the front line, was furious, drew his sword in his hand, and chopped down a fleeing soldier with a sword: "No escape! Let me form an formation, otherwise how can we resist the Xiliang iron cavalry?"
It's okay if it's just a small-scale rout, but the key is that Yuan Shu's army was directly in chaos, not to mention Han Yin, even Han Xin's resurrection would be powerless.
"Who listens to you? I'm not going to fight anymore, I'm going home to farm."
"I don't want to die, I really don't want to die."
"The Xiliang cavalry are all devils!"
Hundreds of rebels rushed over in a wave, Han Yin didn't pay attention, he was directly engulfed by the rebels, and the horse fell to the ground with a bang, even he himself fell to the ground.
The Xiliang iron cavalry was simply invincible. In the First World War, Yuan Shu's army was defeated. Zhang Xiu even jumped on his horse with a spear, and only took Yuan Shu.
"Yuan Shu is a traitor, do you know Zhang Xiu from the North?"
Yuan Shu frowned: "Yu She, go and resist for a while."
The school lieutenant Yu She clasped his fists in agreement, and rode out with a spear in his hand: "The enemy general Zhang Xiu, do you know Yu She, the famous Nanyang general?"
Zhang Xiu laughed loudly: "Are you also worthy of being called a famous general?"
Seeing Zhang Xiu despise him so much, how could Yu She bear it? He straightened the spear in his hand and poked it straight at Zhang Xiu's throat, wanting to do meritorious service with one move.
Zhang Xiu snorted coldly, and fought fast, the tip of the spear suddenly passed over Yu She's spear point, a burst of energy deflected the point of Yu She's spear, and then raised his hand and stabbed Yu She in the heart, killing Yu She immediately life.
"Whoever captures and kills Yuan Shu will be promoted to three ranks and rewarded with 100,000 coins!"
Zhang Xiu yelled loudly, and the five thousand Xiliang iron cavalry were all excited. The Liangzhou iron cavalry fought against Yuan Shu's army, and blood flowed like rivers for a while.
Ji Ling, who was focusing on attacking Xu Rong, looked back, but was taken aback.
"Zhang Xun! You command a certain army and horses, and a certain one goes to save the general!"
Seeing that Yuan Shu's army was on the verge of collapse, Ji Ling gave Zhang Xun a word without saying a word, and then led the army's 2,000 light cavalry back without saying a word, and rushed towards Yuan Shu's army. It is also the only cavalry unit of Yuan Shu's army, so it can be seen that Yuan Shu really attaches great importance to Ji Ling.
Zhang Xiu made a bloody path in the sea of blood on the mountain of corpses, his armor was dyed red all over, he casually stabbed two Yuan Shu soldiers to death, and pointed the spear point at Yuan Shu.
"Yuan's traitor, take your life!" Zhang Xiu's face was ferocious, and he opened his mouth to drink, which made Yuan Shu's face pale with fright.
"My life is over!"
Seeing that Zhang Xiu's iron cavalry stood out, and he only took Yuan Shu alone, suddenly a cavalry came out from the diagonal stabbing. The leader reined in his horse and stepped forward, brandishing the three-pointed double-edged knife in his hand. At this critical moment, he finally stopped Zhang Xiu of the gun.
"The enemy will not hurt my lord, Ji Ling of Qingzhou is here!"
The three-pointed double-edged knife and Zhang Xiu's spear collided together, and with a clang, Zhang Xiu's arm shook, and he paid attention to it from the bottom of his heart.
Zhang Xiu waved a shot, still wanting to take only Yuan Shu, but Ji Ling was unmoved, a three-pointed double-edged knife only took Zhang Xiu's throat, Zhang Xiu had no choice but to turn around and fight fiercely with Ji Ling, the two generals With superb martial arts skills, they immediately fought evenly.
The cavalry of Ji Ling's Department desperately intercepted and finally blocked the front of Xiliang iron cavalry. Seeing this, Yuan Shu stroked his chest lightly and breathed a sigh of relief.
"With Ji Ling here, I have no worries."
