Chapter 50 The Death of the Spearmen
The commander of the Lujiang spearman, Li Fengzi, stared at the Yangzhou sword and shield hands that were getting closer and closer in front of him. His powerful hands began to gradually clench the spear in his hand.
He was about to fight the enemy. His nervousness made his lungs, which had been rapidly opening and closing because of his wild running, feel that he could no longer absorb a trace of air. The feeling of stuffiness seemed to burst his chest.
"As long as there is another moment, you can stab the gun! Just like when you were training on the school field, you charged thousands of times and pierced the straw man in front of you. Yes! That's that simple! The commander Wang Xiaoshou said just now!
I just don’t know what the difference between piercing the body of a real person and the body of a straw man! I’m so looking forward to it!”
The countless sprints, guns and piercings on the school ground were real training! Li Fengzi had absolute confidence and in the first round, he took the enemy sword and shield hand who was still standing in his eyes, and felt as cold as a fight against a scarecrow.
"This is the truth that has been proven countless times in the trained straw men. The sharp steel gun tips will not tell whether your body is straw or human flesh!"
He glanced at both sides and found that he had no comrades on both sides. Li Fengzi felt proud that he was far ahead.
"This is the benefit of my goodness in running. No one in the pikes in the entire song could run faster than me! This time I must be the first to build the first place to go.
Maybe, why would the prefect have been promoted to me when I see my bravery? If I can kill the enemy chief and upgrade to three levels in a row, it would be even better to directly upgrade me to Qu Chang! The somewhat snobbish woman in the family will be proud of me! But the woman's body is really tender, which makes people reluctant to let go! When I get promoted, she will obey me more!"
As if in response to Li Fengzi's fantasy, a cold wind suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Woooo" The sound of an object cutting through the air flashed over his head, and a blunt sound of "punch, pounce" suddenly sounded behind him. The heavy sound of his body falling to the ground, followed by a tragic cry.
Li Fengzi seemed to feel that some liquid suddenly got wet on his back.
He was afraid of tripping over the uneven ground under his feet, so he did not dare to turn around and continued to run forward. The distance of twenty steps was instantly reached. He suddenly stabbed the spear in his hand towards the enemy he had already aimed at.
"It's going to be pierced!"
But he was shocked to find that a group of enemy soldiers who were originally standing in front of him, which seemed like grass man, suddenly moved.
The sword and shield in his eyes bent his waist and back, and stood in a lunge step. The shield in his left hand suddenly raised and blocked the tip of his spear. With a loud bang, the spear that was sharply stabbed out in Li Fengzi's hand was immediately completely blocked from castration.
A sword and shield hand on the left side of the knife hand slashed down the gun body with one slash. Li Fengzi subconsciously let go of the gun rod in his hand, and the steel tip fell heavily to the ground, making a crisp sound of unwillingness.
Li Fengzi, who barely saved his palm, was scared and sweated: "How could this be the case? The teachers at the beginning just praised my gun for being very brave. But I never taught me what to do when I encounter a scarecrow who would resist. What's more, this is still a group of...! Hey, am I rushing too fast?"
Li Fengzi, who had reacted, was about to turn around and go back to join the brigade. As his eyes turned, he saw another cold light on the right sweeping towards his neck.
"Oh my god!"
Li Fengzi shouted, and he, who had always reacted quickly, hurriedly hugged his head and squatted down. However, this action happened to meet the requirements of the Jiangdong Army for prisoners on the battlefield.
Several sword and shield soldiers who cooperated with each other looked at each other, not understanding what the Lujiang soldier was. He came here just now like a galloping horse. Because he rushed to the front of the Lujiang army alone and was difficult to aim, he simply let him go when he threw a gun. He was about to let him approach and clean up manually.
Unexpectedly, he had a strong and powerful stab at the attack, and the commander who had always had great courage and defended with all his strength was almost overwhelmed to the ground. Even unexpectedly, he did not dare to take the counterattack of an ordinary soldier, and he abandoned his weapons and surrendered.
I don’t understand that this brave Lujiang spearman was playing with the soldiers who were a little confused.
He wanted to kill him, but due to the new military rules, he refused to kill him and was not allowed to abuse the prisoners. He had to let a few spearmen behind him come forward and tie him up first, and then deal with it when the battle was over.
When Li Fengzi was dragged into the enemy formation, he finally looked back at the place where he came. What came into his eyes was the rhythmic rain of arrows in the sky, and a comrades laying down on the ground behind him. One or two flying spears or crossbow arrows were inserted into each person's body. The gun sticks and arrow tails exposed outside were still swaying slightly in the air.
Some of the bodies were completely gone, and more people were still struggling between life and death, shouting. Blood was flowing out of the wounds at different positions on their bodies, quickly filling the ground with small pits of different depths.
Li Fengzi, who had never seen such a real bloody battle scene, was dragged into the military formation by the spearmen before he could take a second look.
But he knew that in that fallen body, there must be four other soldiers under his command. Although he didn't see whether they were dead or alive, he only looked at the tragic situation at the scene, Li Fengzi knew that they must be in danger, and it would be difficult for them to meet again in this life!
Behind the Yangzhou Army's sword and shield hands, there was a high platform. A group of neatly arranged crossbowmen were stably holding powerful crossbows on them, shooting in an orderly manner. The spearmen who were still charging were wearing thin leather armor, and perhaps they could block some weak swords in close combat, and dealing with sword and shield hands was a perfect defense.
But in front of the crossbow arrows and heavy flying spears emitted by powerful mechanisms at close range, they were easily torn apart like paper.
The three hundred powerful crossbows were launched in turn, and the flying spears thrown by two hundred swords and gunmen. For a moment, five hundred spearmen were killed and injured!
Just like a surging wave, swarming up without being controlled by itself, it suddenly hits the solid reef on the shore, and it immediately ends up being crushed to pieces.
Seeing the comrades in front and around me fall down in rows, either rushing to the ground and dying silently, or rolling with arrows, flying spears, and screaming and waiting for death.
The terrifying atmosphere of death was increasingly overwhelmingly over the Lujiang spearmen and soldiers who were charging forward.
Finally, I don’t know who could no longer bear the heavy pressure, so I shouted like I lost my mind, turned around and ran away first.
But because they rushed too far, they turned around and ran away just to reveal their equally fragile backs to the crossbowmen in the camp who were still calm and took turns shooting.
After the remaining Lujiang spearmen were like dogs, they finally escaped from the effective range of the trap camp. When they looked at each other, they were sad and speechless. Only a hundred and ten spearmen who were full of energy during the attack could still stand back. Some of them had a few arrows on their backs.
As long as the Yangzhou Army's crossbows range is longer, I am afraid that the soldiers standing here will not escape the fate of being shot down. Every living person understands that this is war, and the spearman of his song is over!
