Chapter 498

Thick smoke rose into the sky, and the ten floating bridges on the canal that had just been built soon turned into fireworks all over the sky.

Zhang Jin, who was far away, knew that Dou Jiande had suddenly arrived at this time. He was a little worried, but after seeing that only about 50,000 troops crossing the river under Dou Jiande's banner, they burned the floating bridge on their heels. This action made Zhang Jincheng laugh and very happy.

"Dou Jiande didn't know how to live or die, and he cut off his own way out. Then I will fulfill his promise today so that he can't think of returning to the north shore." [..com]

A middle-aged man dressed in a Confucian robe under Zhang Jincheng frowned and said, "Dou Jiande is learning from the King of Western Chu, burning his boats and fighting with his back. In this way, the soldiers and horses in Hejian know that the back is broken, and only by fighting to the death can they have a way out. I am afraid that they will stimulate the strongest combat power. Dou Jiande is indeed not simple. This is to live by putting it to death. The king must be careful and not underestimate the enemy."

"Dou Jiande is just a small rural farmer, and his subordinates are just mud-legged farmers. They want to learn from the king to fight back, but they are afraid that they will only make people laugh. King, Dou Jiande is just a man, but now he is only 40,000 or 50,000 soldiers and horses, but he is afraid that he will come to death. King, we have 200,000 soldiers and horses, and each person will drown them even if he spits a mouthful of water. Why not be afraid of it?" The speaker was Liu Badao's former general Ge Qian. He failed to escape that day, and later surrendered to Zhang Jinsheng. However, he had already received a letter from Liu Badao two days ago, asking him to rebel in front of the formation.

Li Deyi, another old subordinate of Liu Badao, also quickly agreed and said that he could even use people to pile up Dou Jiande's common man and his few men.

Zhang Jin said that he was very happy when he heard this, and sent orders to continue, and all the troops attacked together to annihilate Dou Jiande.

On one side is Dou Jiande's 47,000 troops, who are fierce and fierce, and are extremely fierce.

On one side is Zhang Jincheng's mob, with a large number of people, like the ocean, boundless.

However, although Zhang Jin said that there were more than 200,000 troops, most of them were mobs. Moreover, most of them were the Sun and Liu families who had just been annexed. The two troops, whose combat power was not strong, were already disrupted and reorganized at this time, and all the soldiers in the army were not aware of. During the war, under the fierce impact of Dou Jiande's army, Zhang Jin said that although there were many people on one side, they were about to collapse at one touch, and instead they were like snow water meeting molten iron, constantly melting.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Jincheng, who was supervising the battle in the rear, didn't care. He had only a few people, and he didn't feel sad at all when he died a little. He grabbed his wolf-tooth stick from his personal soldiers. Zhang Jincheng waved his hand and rode his horse forward. Behind him were Zhang Jincheng's 10,000 personal guards and 20,000 internal troops.

Although the personal guards and the inner army are not yet up to the strength standards he has listed in the past, they are also the strongest people selected from hundreds of thousands of people. In particular, his ten thousand personal guards are all cavalrymen, all with armor. Zhang Jin said that one horse was the first, and 30,000 people and horses were followed by iron.

Dou Jiande led the Hejian rebel army to stare at one place and chased after him. His idea was very simple, to fight to break the surface and drive away Zhang Jincheng's defeated soldiers, but to scatter Zhang's formation. As long as he let his troops scatter, he would be able to directly take Zhang Jincheng's central army and capture the thief first.

However, his calculations were quickly miscalculated. Zhang Jin said that Zongheng had not fallen for many years. Although he was cruel, his strength was very fierce. He waved his fangs and sticks, and there was no general in his hands along the way. Soon, he blocked Dou Jiande's offensive like an iron plate.

After leading the personal guards and the inner army to block Dou Jiande's tide attack, Zhang Jincheng's mouth flashed with a grim smile and waved his hand. The messenger behind him held long horns and blew straight. After the whimpering order came out, countless soldiers and horses rushed from all directions. Although these soldiers and horses were far less powerful than Zhang Jin's personal guards, they were defeated by the large number of people and gradually surrounded Dou Jiande.

Seeing the brothers around him falling down one after another, Dou Jiande's hair and beard were wide open.

"General, brothers can't hold on anymore. Take the banner and let Sun and Liu's old subordinates turn against each other." Fan Yuan stabbed a cavalry called Zhang Jin with a shot and rushed to Dou Jiande's horse and shouted loudly.

Dou Jiande shook his head. It was not the time. At this time, letting Sun and Liu's old subordinates rebel against each other, and it would not be a fatal blow to Zhang Jin. Sun and Liu's old subordinates were their last trump card, and he would not use it until the most god moment.

The horse neighed and howled, and more and more people fell down, and the situation became increasingly critical.

Just when Dou Jiande was about to send a signal, his eyes suddenly swept to the battlefield. In addition to the troops and horses of the Hejian Rebel Army and Zhang Jin, there were actually other people on the battlefield.

Behind countless soldiers, there were many ragged people. At first glance, these people had at least 200,000 to 300,000, which was no less than the number of people on both sides of their war. When they saw these people, they knew their identity. Zhang Jin said that he was his fourth sworn brother, and he had known Zhang's style. Every time he passed a city, he would plunder the whole city and carry the people to follow the army. This was his style.

Looking at these people, Dou Jiande's eyes lit up, "Bowing Barracks, heading southeast, freely ejected, ten consecutive shots, release!"

The commander passed the orders, and the five thousand archers who had been guarding Dou Jiande in the middle immediately set off their bows and arrows. With a command, sharp whistling sounds rang across the battlefield, and five thousand arrows flew into the sky in an instant, forming a dark cloud of arrows.

The next moment, sharp arrows descended from the sky, and dense rain of arrows suddenly wrapped a large area in the southeast direction. Zhang Jin, who did not even have armor and shields, suffered a destructive blow in an instant.

Countless people fell to the ground by arrows, screaming and screaming. A blank suddenly appeared in the thick encirclement.

Dou Jiande waved his horse spear, pointed to the southeast, and shouted, "Kill!"

Countless people followed Dou Jiande and rushed straight to the southeast. Most of the people there could not even meet the foreign troops that Zhang Jin said were as standard. Faced with the fierce attack of Dou Jiande's army, they continued to disperse. Dou Jiande led his army to chase and attack fiercely, and said that he was not caring about the personal guards and the inner army, who were also chasing behind him.

Dou Jiande's army was like a red-burned iron chisel, and quickly burned a passage among the endless Zhang Jinshou's troops. He rushed out of the encirclement. Dou Jiande did not stop and immediately led his troops to kill more than 100,000 people who were watching the battle in a daze not far away.

More than 100,000 people were all unarmed. Dou Jiande's army, whose eyes were red when killed, rushed around and fled everywhere in an instant. Dou Jiande only took his troops and drove the people back and forth Zhang Jin. While rushing, Dou Jiande ordered the entire army to shout, "The Zhang bandit is defeated, abandon the weapons and avoid death!"

"Zhang's thief is defeated, abandon his weapons and avoid death!"

The dozens of miles of river bank on the south bank of the canal were crowded with people. The soldiers and horses on both sides, and those millions of people had already gathered on the dozens of miles of land. The dense crowd was like a market.

The people driven by Dou Jiande's army fled around and kept crashing into Zhang Jincheng's army. The roars in Dou Jiande's army kept ringing in the "Zhang's bandits are defeated, abandon their weapons to avoid death!" caused the soldiers to panic.

Some people believe it, and some people don’t, but more people are already confused.

The chaotic war lasted for more than an hour. At this time, the entire battlefield on the south bank was in chaos. People were everywhere, but there were few complete troops and horses. Dou Jiande's troops were divided into three units at this time, each driving away the people and soldiers and horses he brought to, and wandering around. Zhang Jinsheng and his tens of thousands of elite soldiers were already dumped by Dou Jiande and could not even catch up.

On the chaotic battlefield, suddenly, horns of cow horns sounded, far and wide. The sound of this horn was constantly connected with the usual military orders, and seemed to be in contact. Sure enough, within a while, on the battlefield, echoing horns suddenly sounded one after another from everywhere.

Sun Anzu's former subordinate Sun Anlin, Li Du, Liu Badao's former subordinate Ge Qian, Li Deyi and others all took their confidants to fight back. They took out red cloth strips from their arms and tied them on their foreheads. On the battlefield, the red headscarf appeared.

The brothers from the same camp were the moment before, but the next moment, they immediately stabbed each other with a spear.

The sudden change made the battlefield even more chaotic, and the dark sky was even darker at this time.

Dou Jiande had gathered most of his troops again, joined forces, changed direction, and rushed towards Zhang Jinsheng to kill him.

Zhang Jin said that his eyes were red when he waved his mace, and his blood stains made people look like Shura.

Just blocked Dou Jiande's offensive, Ge Qian led his troops back, and Li Deyi, Sun Anlin, Li Du and others arrived one after another. Zhang Jin said he could no longer stop it and began to fight to the death and fight to a bloody road, ready to escape. This is the reason why he survived after years of bloody battles. He had a very sharp vision. Once the battlefield situation was unfavorable and he could not recover, he would never hesitate and escape immediately.

He always thought that the green mountains left were not afraid of burning firewood. Striving hard would not be a good result.

Leaving the inner army to cut off the rear, Zhang Jin said that he led seven or eight thousand cavalrymen to rush all the way and was ready to flee south.

The south bank of the canal in the afternoon was dim and low.

Amid the fighting sounds of fighting all over the sky, a muffled thunder suddenly came from the south.

The earth shook slightly, and a black line appeared on the horizon on the south. The rumbling sound became clearer and clearer, but Dou Hong Line received a signal, leading the three thousand cavalry hidden in the south to kill.

Zhang Jin said that although there were still seven or eight thousand cavalry at this time, from the battle in the morning to the afternoon, people were tired from being trapped and horses, and the soldiers were also afraid, and they had already lost their morale. Seeing that they had not yet got rid of the pursuers behind, another vigorous cavalry came to the front, and immediately their faces were ashes.

Dou Hongshi is no longer dressed as a scout soldier today. She is wearing a conspicuous white bright light armor, a bright silver spear in her hand, and the fiery red tassels on the tip of the spear are so conspicuous, just like her delicate red lips.

Sitting on the tall white horse, holding the silver spear in her hand tightly, not only did her eyes not have any fear of being on the dot, but she was also full of excitement and high fighting spirit.

The two cavalry collided in an instant, like two waves slapped together, soaring into the sky, and then falling back in an instant. Countless war horses neighed and fell to the ground, and more cavalry fell. Although Dou Hongshi and Zhang Jin called the cavalry were the most elite among the two rebel armies, they were all just peasant soldiers. Although these were called cavalry, they were just a group of peasants riding horses.

Not only did they not have complete training for cavalry, but also did not have complete armor for cavalry. Even many of those war horses were just Numas, not even complete horse harnesses, not to mention the armor and shields that were equipped immediately.

One knight after another was attacked by the opponent's war horse, and easily stabbed the spear in his hand into the opponent's body without armor protection. Those weak and unhealthy cavalry would fall off their horses if they were accidentally trampled into mud by the war horse's hooves.

Joining the war, a truly tragic battle. With just one hedge, countless cavalry fell.

Dou Hongxian waved the silver spear in his hand, stabbed left and right, and under the protection of several personal soldiers, he stabbed two enemies in the first battle. As soon as the battle sides rushed past, Zhang Jin said that more than 7,000 cavalrymen were left at once.

Before he could close the array again, Dou Jiande arrived quickly with his troops behind him.

"Arrowman, shoot!" With Dou Jiande's order, countless bows and arrows flew towards Zhang Jincheng's cavalry with howling sounds.

Dou Hongshi changed direction again, joined forces with his father and uncles, and chased Zhang Jincheng. Both sides chased each other and fought. Zhang Jincheng had more cavalry than Dou Jiande, but he had lost his courage and did not dare to turn around and fight. He fled south with his men and horses, and Dou Jiande chased and kept killing Zhang Jincheng's men and horses.

From afternoon to evening, Zhang Jin said that he had led the defeated general to Dongguang City with his remaining soldiers. But if they were called the city, the city gate was closed at this time and he refused to open the door. Zhang Jin said that he knew that the guard of Dongguang City was Liu Badao's old subordinate. On the battlefield today, Liu Badao and Sun Anzu's subordinates rebelled in the battle. He could not tell that they must have colluded with Dou Jiande in advance. Seeing that the city did not open, he immediately understood that this man must have surrendered to Dou Jiande.

He didn't dare to stay any longer, so he continued to rush south with his men and horses. At midnight, he finally arrived at Hu Su City. He had just arrived at the city, but the people in the city immediately ordered the city gate to be opened. The city guard was Zhang Jincheng's old subordinate who had been in Shandong. He did not doubt that he had it, and hurriedly brought more than 5,000 remaining soldiers into the city. One day of the battle, he escaped for another night. The soldiers were already tired and hungry, and rushed into the city one after another.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the city, the city gate behind him suddenly closed tightly, a clapper sounded, and there were countless bowstrings in the darkness around him. The dense feather arrows shot Zhang Jincheng and other soldiers who had just relaxed their defenses and fell off their horses, and screams kept ringing.

Zhang Jincheng waved his mace and kept waving the grid, but saw a little white light suddenly coming to the front of him in the fire. He didn't dodge for a while. He immediately hit his left eye and immediately stained his face with blood. Dou Hongshi smiled and put away his soft bow, and a hint of pride appeared on the corner of his mouth. Although they had been chasing behind Zhang Jincheng before, they happened to be a few days ago when she was detouring from North to Hu Su City. They just took the path and arrived at Hu Su first, pretending to be Zhang Jincheng's troops and horses to open the city, killed a small number of troops left behind in the city, set up an ambush plan, lured Zhang Jincheng into the city, and wiped out one fell swoop.
