Chapter 194 Choice (continued)
The war elephants were approaching, and the soldiers holding spears looked pale. They did not expect that the war elephants on their side would turn against each other and instead of trampling on the enemy, they were carried by the enemy cavalry and rushed towards their own people.
Although there are still more than a hundred steps away and the war elephants are not moving too fast, the soldiers in the formation have shown signs of instability, and they do not have the courage to fight against the tall war elephants.
Without further ado, the cavalry that had retreated shortly afterwards attacked again. They wanted to try to interfere with the direction of the war elephant's advance and could not let them attack their own formations. The main force of the Zhou army had already begun to move toward this side, and if they could not withstand it, they would be finished.
Feng Xuan rode a war horse and led his troops to participate in the interception. The Liliao cavalry had already been defeated in the first confrontation just now, but this was not the reason for him to retreat. It was already here. Once the army was defeated like a mountain, most people would not be able to survive.
He knew his grandmother's temper and would never retreat first to "avoid the edge for the time being", nor would he abandon the slang coaches and cave owners from all over the country who responded to the call to help the war, and would "take a step first" by himself, so he would have to fight for his life no matter what.
Leading troops to fight, you cannot cherish your life for victory. This is the choice.
The Zhou cavalry on the battlefield soon gathered over. Before the Liliao cavalry could get close to the battle elephant, they were approached by these cavalry. As soon as they finished turning, they were pierced by the spear thrown by the Zhou cavalry.
With a "bang!", the horse spear on Feng Xuan's hand was knocked away by a Zhou general with a spear. The tiger's mouth hurt slightly. When he turned around, he saw that the Zhou general was the one who had been chasing him before, deliberately not shooting people but instead shooting his feathers.
The young and energetic Feng Xuan rushed to his heart, took the horse spear handed over by his clan, turned his head and galloped towards the other party. He thought he was not ready just now, so he could not admit defeat and run away.
The Feng family's family is of course well-off, so the three brothers of the Feng family have been practicing martial arts since childhood and deserve the four words "skilled in bows and horses" in Lingnan. Therefore, Feng Xuan is confident that he can distinguish between the enemy by cavalry battles.
As long as you can kill the opponent's general, you will surely boost the morale of your cavalry. As long as you successfully interfere with the direction of the war elephant's advance, you will be able to turn your army into danger. Feng Xuan thought so, so he had to fight to kill the enemy.
But the reality is cruel. In the second round, when the two cavalry confronted each other, his horse spear was easily swept away by the opponent. When the two horses kicked in the wrong way, Feng Xuan was swept straight into the chest by the opponent and was swept off the horse directly.
Seeing this, the troops rushed forward to rescue him but were dispersed by Zhou Qi. Feng Xuan was so stunned that he struggled to get up and pulled out his sword to fight to the death, but Zhou Jiang turned his head and caught up with him and swept him to the ground with a spear.
Feng Xuan got up, and the knife in his hand had rolled elsewhere. He howled bare hands and wanted to resist, but was knocked out by Zhou Jiang's horse with his spear.
Seeing that the two husbands of Feng's family were finished, Liliao's cavalry, who had finally plucked up the courage to fight, were scattered like birds and beasts. Lady Xian could see clearly in the central army, and knew that her grandson was in trouble and could not help but feel like a knife, but she could not see any clues on her face.
As the backbone of Li Liaobeng, she knew that she could not be in chaos. Now the war elephant was about to attack her own military formation. It was not the time when children were in love. She ordered the drummer to beat the drum hard to boost morale for her own soldiers.
Amid the drums, many soldiers holding spears and torches came out to face the war elephants who were moving forward on foot. They had already promised that their families would receive double pensions after their deaths, so they had to use their flesh and blood to drive away the war elephants like hills.
The Zhou cavalry holding war elephants on both sides had dispersed, so they just needed to scare the war elephants who were afraid of fire. Since the Zhou army could scare these giants with torches, they could do the same.
"ah!"
A slang soldier was knocked down by a war elephant, and then his head was slashed by a thick elephant's legs. Another slang soldier was pulled away by a war elephant's bloody elephant's nose, and the torch in his hand drew an arc to the ground.
The war elephant who was pricked on fire by Zhou's army was forced to run forward with a spear, and easily broke through the Li Lian soldiers who were intercepted with torches and rushed into the military formation behind him.
Some of the war elephants were exhausted and fell to the ground after taking a few steps. The Li Jiaojian, who could not dodge, was pressed under him and turned into a pool of flesh and blood. He was lucky enough to cry "Help" and scared the soldiers next to him so much that they couldn't help but retreat.
Some war elephants rushed into the crowd regardless of everything, trampling on all the people or things that stood in front of them.
Crying and roaring sounds one after another. The soldiers and soldiers barely blocked the seriously injured war elephants with their flesh and blood. The ground was covered in blood and blood, and the entire military formation was already in chaos.
The surviving war elephants turned around and fled to the south where no one was around, and the Zhou cavalry had taken the opportunity to adjust their formation and galloped at a suitable distance, charging towards the formation of the Lijia Army, which had already appeared many robberies.
The marching chief Murong Sanzang personally led the army to step on the formation, and the horse spear in his hand danced like flying. All those who blocked the road were stabbed in front of the horse. Under his leadership, Zhou cavalry successively penetrated into the enemy formation one after another, like a sharp pig killing knife, cutting off the meat from the fat pig's body with one knife.
The Lijia soldiers were about to collapse. Seeing the morale of the army, some Li Zhengs in the Central Military Office wanted to leave on the pretext of excuses. Lady Xian held the imperial gift and ordered her to supervise the battle with a knife: "Where are people who dare to cross the army, they will be judged as if they escaped in the battle!"
Mrs. Xian, who was over 60 years old, shouted in a very angry way, making everyone's little thoughts dare not take practical actions.
The chastity she held in her hands was given to the Emperor Chen State. Although it was only the honor of "holding the envoy" and did not have the real power to "govern the military of a certain state", Lady Xian stood in the most conspicuous place on the mound with her envoy, which made everyone feel awe-in.
"The winner is not decided, why are you afraid of this? We live in Lingnan for generations and cannot protect the country and the people. Even if we live in vain, how can we meet the villagers and elders!"
"The war elephant has been dispersed for our soldiers. Even if there are many cavalry, what are the fears of our army as long as we form a formation to defend our lives!"
"Send the order! Form a formation around the central army, the spearman is outside, guarding the archers!"
"If the enemy does not retreat, he will stand here until he retreats and will never escape in the face of battle!"
The loud words gave the Limao and the cave owner a courage again. When the Limao saw their own leader, the flag was still in the central army and had the confidence to persevere. Many people gave up the idea of escaping and gathered with spears and bows.
Just as they were determined to continue forming a formation to confront the Zhou cavalry, the opponent's own formation urged gold to withdraw the troops. The cavalry did not hesitate when they heard the sound, and retreated northwards, and instantly retreated.
......
"King! Our army is about to break through the enemy's formation, why did Mingjin withdraw his troops?"
In the Zhou army's formation, Chief Cui Dazhe asked Yuwen Wen loudly, and his anger was about to break through the limit. He could see clearly with the Thousand Mile Mile Mile just now that Murong Sanzang's cavalry was about to break through the Liliao Bing's military formation, but Yang Ji actually ordered people to sing gold, which was simply intolerable.
"Choushi Cui is a little relieved..."
"King! Could it be that General Yang is afraid that General Murong will steal the credit, so he uses this despicable method!"
"Don't want it to be Cui Changshi..."
"King! Yang Ji is jealous of the virtuous and capable, and what he does is something he is wrong! The officials cannot sit idly by and harm the official army, so they must be solemn..."
After being interrupted continuously, Yuwen Wen became angry from his heart and became brave. Seeing that Cui Dana had signs of drawing his sword, he decided to give the other party a little color. Suddenly, his eyes turned back and fell back, which scared Cui Dana so much that he quickly stepped forward to support him: "Master! What's wrong with the Master!"
Zhang Ding, who was standing beside him, smiled bitterly when he saw this, and was shocked to go forward to help Yuwen Wen. He thought that this person was acting, so in order to cooperate well, he shouted with great exaggeration: "Call the military doctor!"
"Water...water...I have nothing to do..."
Yuwen Wen opened his eyes "weakly" and said "weakly" that he wanted to drink water. Cui Dana was anxious when he saw this and ordered someone to bring a kettle to help Yuwen Wen drink water. The momentum of raising troops and asking for guilt had disappeared without a trace.
If Yuwen Wen was inexplicably "dead" from the battlefield, he would not be able to suppress the Huangzhou soldiers and the Hulin Army. If someone spread rumors that he killed Yuwen Wen, he would probably be killed by someone.
"Master!"
Yang Ji, who was commanding the entire army to fight, ran back from the front to greet him after hearing the news. Seeing that the person fainted at the right time to relieve him, he smiled bitterly. Since the "protagonist" began to perform, he, as a "supporting role", could only cooperate.
"I'm fine, General Yang, why did Mingjin withdraw his troops just now?"
