"Get ready to fight!" Yang Peng shouted loudly. The heavy-shielded spearmen lowered their shields and leveled their spears. Their flintlock rifles were ready to go. The heavy infantry was ready to charge. The 50,000-strong army was ready. More than half of the soldiers looked a little nervous.
They looked nervous. These soldiers were all new recruits without any combat experience.
The Liao army stopped one mile in front and formed a battle formation. The infantry was in the center and formed a fish scale formation. At the rear was the Liao's heavy armored cavalry Tielin Army, with 40,000 to 50,000 light cavalry on both wings. An army of 150,000
The area was filled with darkness and murderous intent. Suddenly, the flag of the commander of the Liao army moved forward and came to the front of the military formation. The heroic figure under the flag of the commander was clearly the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom. On her left and right sides were more than twenty tough men.
The Liao army general.
The Song army formation separated, and a mighty Song army general rode out, came to the middle of the two armies, stood up with his spear drawn, and shouted: "I am Huyan Chijin, the pioneer officer under General Yulin, who dares to fight with me!"
A majestic Liao general with disheveled hair and a beard covered with steel needles immediately rode out on horseback with a big ax in hand and shouted in Khitan: "I'm here to take your life!"
Huyan Chijin couldn't understand the opponent's words. Seeing the opponent's menacing approach, he couldn't help but get excited and rode his horse to meet him. When the two horses crossed each other, the Liao general swung his axe. Shi Wengong was startled and swung his axe.
The spear swung away with a powerful and heavy blow to the opponent's hand, and there was a loud clang! The two sides passed each other, ran dozens of steps, and turned their horses' heads. The Liao general yelled, holding up his big ax like an angry black bear.
Rushing towards him, Huyan Chijin shouted loudly and faced him directly with his spear in hand!
The two sides fought another move, the sound shook the sky, and then they stuck together and fought fiercely, fighting inextricably. The soldiers on both sides couldn't help but their blood boiled, and they shouted one after another.
Xiao Duli, who immediately stood next to Empress Dowager Xiao, exclaimed: "I have never seen this person before, and he can actually fight to a tie with the most brave general in our country!" It turned out that the Liao general who had an indistinguishable fight with Huyan Chijin in the field,
It turned out to be the most brave general of the Liao Kingdom, Arich. This man was born with supernatural power and had courage that no man could match. He had served as a forward many times in the previous confrontations with the Xixia Kingdom, and many Xixia warriors died under his axe.
He is definitely a scary and sad person.
"Your Highness, I'm going to help Arich." A Liao general wearing a fur hat and a beard said. Then he saw him riding out. But he did not enter the battlefield. He reined in the horse from a distance and took out the crossbow.
, buckled the string, loaded the crossbow arrows, and aimed at Huyan Chijin, who was fighting with Arich in the distance. Seeing that his opponent was about to fire a secret arrow, Li Xu immediately rushed out and shouted: "Sister Huyan Chijin, be careful!" At this moment, Li Xu
, the Liao general pulled the trigger, and saw a black shadow flying quickly towards Huyan Chijin's back!
Because Li Xu warned Huyan Chijin, he heard the sound of wind behind him and knew that someone had fired a hidden arrow. He immediately fell back. Almost at the same time, an arrow flew past Huyan Chijin. Li Xu rode his horse.
While flying, he bent his bow and aimed an arrow at the guy who fired the hidden arrow. The Liao general suddenly heard the sound of the wind, and immediately saw an arrow flying in front of him. He was frightened and wanted to avoid it, but his body refused to obey.
Bang! The arrow hit his left eye, and he screamed, turned over and fell. Seeing this scene, the soldiers of the Liao Kingdom couldn't help but change their colors in horror!
Empress Dowager Xiao raised her right hand, and the war drums rang loudly. This was a precursor to the Liao army's charge. Arich quickly feinted a shot, then turned his horse's head and ran back to the military formation. Huyan Chijin did not dare to catch up, so he
The horse returned to the military formation. Empress Dowager Xiao waved her right hand forward, and the 30,000 Liao infantry troops lined up in three large square formations and pressed forward towards the Song army! The shield bearers formed a shield wall in front, like a forest.
The spears were followed by five or six thousand crossbowmen. The movements of thirty thousand people were uniform, shouting step by step, and the momentum was like a rainbow!
Yang Peng raised his right hand, and all the fusiliers raised their fusiliers. The Liao army gradually approached, and their faces could almost be seen clearly! Yang Peng suddenly lowered his right hand. Nearly ten thousand fusiliers fired together, and in an instant, the sound of gunfire covered the sky.
, the earth became dark! Bullets fell into the middle of the Liao army like a rainstorm, and there was a crackling sound. Many Liao soldiers were shot to the ground. The crossbowmen in the Liao army immediately fought back, and the arrow rain fell into the Song army. Many Song soldiers were
The arrow fell to the ground.
At the same time, five thousand light cavalry from each wing of the Liao army roared towards the two wings of the Song army. They did not directly charge into the formation, but used cavalry and archery skills to attack the two wings of the Song army. Although the Song army had been prepared for a long time, it was still unstoppable.
A few people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. The Song army's flintlock firepower was inevitably transferred to the two wings, so the Liao army infantry in the front took this opportunity to spread out and rush toward the Song army's formation. For a while, they saw the Liao army coming all over the mountains and fields!
The Liao army hit the Song army's defense line like a wave, making a loud rumbling sound, just like a wave hitting the embankment. Seeing that the 'embankment' began to concave inward, it became intertwined. Suddenly, the 'embankment'
He opened several openings by himself, and thousands of sturdy infantrymen wearing heavy armor and holding swords roared into the enemy. The leader was Duan Zhixian, who looked like an ancient monster. Thousands of people were like thousands of ferocious beasts.
, set off a rain of blood in the middle of the enemy army, the flying Mo Dao was shimmering with cold light, and the rain of blood was flying in the sky. In the blink of an eye, they actually contained the Liao army's offensive.
However, the situation quickly took a turn for the worse, because there were too many enemy troops, and they were also very crazy, waving steel knives and spears desperately, and making hysterical roars. At this moment, the horns of the Liao army sounded loudly again.
, the main force of the Liao Army moved, approaching the Song Army from three directions, like a huge machine that could crush everything! Their target was the nearly 50,000 Song Army troops in front of them!
Huyan Chijin said urgently: "General, there are too many enemy troops, retreat quickly!" Yang Peng frowned. Huyan Chijin next to him said urgently: "We can't withdraw! In such a situation, if we retreat rashly, the consequences will be disastrous!"
Huyan Chijin said angrily: "Will there be any different results if we don't withdraw?" Huyan Chijin could not answer his question.
Yang Peng glanced at the heroic figure in the distance, narrowed his eyes, turned to the crowd and said: "Cheng Shijie, Huyan Chijin, Zhou Dayong, you follow me, Li Xu, you command for me, once the enemy retreats, we will definitely
Don't hesitate, retreat immediately!" Everyone agreed in unison.
Yang Peng raised his spear and shouted: "All cavalry, follow me!" Then Yang Peng, Cheng Shijie, Huyan Chijin, and Zhou Dayong led more than 3,000 cavalrymen and rushed out of the military formation, going against the enemy's torrent.
Go up! Pass through the gap between the enemy troops and rush towards Empress Dowager Xiao, with the momentum of never looking back!
Empress Dowager Xiao was taken aback and immediately raised her right hand. More than a thousand cavalrymen guarding the tent under her command immediately rushed forward. The two sides collided with each other. The Liao army waved their scimitars and the Song army waved their horses. The swords came and went, making a clanging sound.
, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the soldiers of both sides fell off their horses one after another! The four Yang Peng were like the gods of death. There was no general anywhere they passed, and they saw the Liao army soldiers spattering blood under their swords.
on the spot!
The Liao Army's cavalry guarding the tent was defeated, and the Song Army's war cavalry attacked Empress Dowager Xiao like a pack of bloodthirsty wolves. All the soldiers quickly protected Empress Dowager Xiao and turned around to escape, while the Song Army's war cavalry chased after her.
Seeing that the Queen Mother was in danger, the main force of the Liao army did not care about attacking the Song army. They turned around and rushed to support. The Song army, which was under great pressure, was finally relieved. Chen Jie said urgently: "Go and support brother!" Li Xu immediately stopped him.
Chen Jie: "No! My eldest brother told me when he left that once the enemy retreats, we will withdraw to Shunzhou without hesitation."
Chen Jie said anxiously: "Don't we just ignore eldest brother!" Li Xu frowned and said: "I think eldest brother has his own plans..." Duan Zhixian shouted angrily: "I think you are just afraid of death! If you don't go, we will go to our house yesterday.
Go!" Then he shouted to the soldiers: "Brothers, if you are not afraid of death, follow me to save my elder brother!" The soldiers started to commotion, some shouted excitedly, while others were very hesitant.
Li Xu rushed to Duan Zhixian and stopped him, "Brother Duan, don't be reckless! Brother Duan gave a strict order when he left. Once the enemy withdraws, we must retreat. We cannot disobey Brother Duan's order! If Brother Duan doesn't believe it, you can ask other people. Brother Duan ordered it."
At that time, everyone heard it!”
Duan Zhixian glanced at the others, who nodded one after another. Duan Zhixian frowned and cursed angrily: "What kind of order is this!" Li Xu said: "Brother Duan, we can't disobey the order of the eldest brother! The eldest brother must have an older brother.
According to the arrangement, if we act without permission, I'm afraid it will mess up big brother's plan!"
Duan Zhixian hesitated for a moment, slammed his staff on the ground, and said angrily: "Retreat, then retreat!" Seeing this, Li Xu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Duan Zhixian insisted on supporting his elder brother. He turned to the soldiers and shouted: "
The whole army listened to the order and immediately returned to Shunzhou!" The Song army officers and soldiers turned around at that time and ran towards Shunzhou at full speed.
The war cavalry led by Yang Peng and others caught up with Empress Dowager Xiao and the others, and a fierce and bloody melee ensued. The Song army tried their best to kill Empress Xiao, while the Liao army tried their best to protect her. The soldiers on both sides risked their lives, just like two groups of crazy beasts.
It was like a bloody fight on the grassland! Chen Xiao was only a dozen meters away from Queen Mother Xiao, and he could already clearly see her beautiful and resolute face! The two looked at each other, and an inexplicable feeling came between them.
Wells up in my heart.
At this moment, the rumble of horse hoofs came from behind. Yang Peng shot away a Liao general and looked back, only to see the Liao army's war horses coming all over the mountains and fields, and dozens of Yuan and Liao generals running at full speed with strange screams.
There was no time! Yang Peng turned to look at the Queen Mother Xiao, put the spear across the saddle, took out the bow and arrow, pointed it at the full moon at the Queen Mother Xiao, released his fingers. There was a buzzing sound, and the arrow turned into a meteor and flew away. At this moment
, a personal officer suddenly rushed in front of Empress Dowager Xiao, and with a snap, the arrow hit the Liao army officer's chest, causing him to flip backward and fall under his horse.
Yang Peng cursed, immediately took out another arrow, put it on the bowstring, and bent the bow to the full moon. At this moment, a Liao army officer rushed from one side with a strange cry. Yang Peng was distracted and missed the shot.
Suddenly, the powerful arrow whizzed past the head of Queen Mother Xiao, scattering Queen Mother Xiao's hair, and her hair was flying in the wind. Queen Mother Xiao was slightly moved, feeling that she must kill this Song Dynasty general.
Yang Peng turned sideways to avoid the scimitar slashed from one side, quickly grabbed his opponent's wrist with his right hand, and pulled hard. The Liao Army officer immediately lost his balance and fell down from his horse. At this time, countless Liao Army soldiers
War cavalry and dozens of Yuan and Liao generals rushed up. A bloody melee broke out between the two sides, and the Song army was crushed to pieces by the Liao army...
In the evening, Yang Peng led a dozen cavalrymen who were running wildly to the northwest. They didn't know where they were. On the right were rolling mountains, on the left were endless plains, and there was a river in the distance. Behind them, there was a rumble.
Loud noises rolled in, and thousands of Liao army cavalry pursued them, led by Liao army general Xiao Duoli and others.
The Liao army's horses were superior to those of the Song army, and the distance between the two sides gradually narrowed. The Liao army's cavalry fired arrows one after another, and seven or eight cavalrymen fell off their horses. Yang Pengheng put down his horse, took out his hard bow, and turned to face
It was an arrow from Xiao Duuli. Xiao Duuli did not expect this arrow at all. By the time he realized the danger, it was already too late. The arrow had already flown very close to him! Xiao Duuli was so frightened that he quickly dodged, but he didn't.
He was able to dodge completely, but there was a pop sound, and the arrow hit him hard on the left side of his chest. Xiao Duli felt the world was spinning, and he turned over and fell from his horse.
When all the Liao army officers saw this, they were so frightened that they no longer cared about pursuing Chen Xiao and the others. They quickly stopped and rescued Xiao Duuli. Xiao Duuli glanced at Yang Peng and the others who were quickly walking away, and said anxiously:
"Leave me alone! Chase them, chase them! Don't let Yang Peng run away!"
Long Teduo said to Xiao Ying: "You stay and take care of the general, I will catch up." Xiao Ying nodded. Long Teduo immediately led a large group of cavalry to continue the pursuit. Soon after, in a forest more than ten miles away, Long Teduo
They caught up with Yang Peng and the others. There was a fierce melee between the two sides. Most of Yang Peng's cavalry were killed. Yang Peng also fought hard and failed, but he was rushed out of the siege, and Long Teduo almost died in his hands.
.……
Yang Peng was lying on his horse, his body covered with scars, holding a blood-stained spear in his hand; the black horse under him was walking slowly by a stream. On the right was a deep mountain forest, and on the left was a
On the opposite side of the creek was a piece of rolling hills and grassland. The war horse stopped, and Yang Peng rolled off the war horse in a daze, lying on his back on the ground, vaguely seeing the twinkling stars, and he couldn't help but wonder.
He didn't know if it was a dream. His eyes gradually darkened, and soon after, Chen Xiao lost all consciousness.
At this moment, a man came out of the dense forest on the right on horseback. The man was also riding a black horse. He had a slim and graceful figure. He was dressed in a black outfit that made his figure extremely sexy. He had jet black hair on his head.
She tied a ponytail on her back, reflecting the brilliance of the stars; her face was covered with a veil, so her appearance could not be seen clearly, but judging from her curved eyebrows and bright eyes, she must be a beauty; she carried a long sword on her back.
A long sword, a bow and a pot of arrows hung beside the saddle.
The masked woman looked at the unconscious Chen Xiao and frowned, seeming to be very hesitant. After a moment, she got off her horse and walked slowly towards Chen Xiao. She held the sword in her right hand and slowly pulled it out.
She clearly showed murderous intent. When she walked in front of Chen Xiao, she hesitated and suddenly put the sword back into the scabbard. She bent down and hugged Chen Xiao onto his horse, and then led the horse back to her own horse.
He got on his horse and led Yang Peng's horse towards the south...
Yang Peng slowly opened his eyes and vaguely saw a pile of fire. There seemed to be a person sitting next to the fire. After a while, Yang Peng's consciousness became much clearer and he found that he was in a dense forest, surrounded by tall people.
He was leaning against the trunk of a pine tree. There was a bonfire less than two meters in front of him. Sitting beside the bonfire was a woman in black clothes and a mask. Her face could not be seen clearly, but her figure and eyebrows were distinct.
Chen Xiao felt that this must be a rare beauty.
"Who are you? Did you save me?" Yang Peng asked. The masked woman turned to look at him, with hatred gleaming in her eyes. She stood up, walked to Yang Peng, and pulled out the gun on her back.
The sword was placed on Yang Peng's neck, and he said coldly: "I never thought about saving you, I want to kill you to avenge my relatives!"
Yang Peng stared at the woman with hatred in her eyes, and suddenly smiled, "You are Han Bing. I remember your smell and your voice." The masked woman frowned, raised her left hand and took off her veil, her eyebrows
Picturesque, yet heroic, it is Han Bing who once assassinated him. "Yes, it's me! Remember who killed you!"
Yang Peng looked at Han Bing and said in a voice that sounded like a nightmare: "Kill me, you do have a reason to kill me! I won't hate you!" Han Bing's sword was placed on Yang Peng's neck, his brows furrowed.
Wrinkling. She saw that there was no fear in Yang Peng's eyes, but only guilt and pity, as if he was pitying a child who had lost a relative.
Suddenly, Han Bing withdrew his sword and stood up. He looked at Yang Peng and said coldly: "Although I, Han Bing, am just a prostitute, I don't bother to take advantage of others' danger." He put the sword back into its scabbard and said proudly: "
I will wait until you are healed from your injuries before I come to take your life!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "By then, I'm afraid you won't have a chance!"
"Huh! You'll probably die!" She walked to her horse, opened a small leather bag, took out two steamed buns, threw one of them into Yang Peng's arms, and then sat down by the campfire.
After eating, Yang Peng struggled to pick up the steamed bun, took a bite, and frowned, "It's too dry. Let's bake it."
Han Bing said angrily: "This is not your general's mansion, how can there be so much exquisiteness!" But a moment later, Han Bing baked steamed buns for Yang Peng and threw the steamed buns into Yang Peng's arms angrily.
, said angrily: "Is it okay now?"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "Thank you." Han Bing snorted and ate by himself. Yang Peng suddenly frowned and covered his chest with his left hand. Han Bing found that Yang Peng seemed to have something wrong, so he quickly got up and came to him
In front of him, he asked angrily: "What's wrong with you?"
Yang Pengqiang smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing!" Han Bing saw a wound on the armor on Chen Xiao's chest. She had not noticed it before, because Yang Peng's whole body seemed to be covered in blood. If he had not been very careful, there would have been a wound at all.
I couldn't notice the wound. Judging from the damage to the armor, it seemed that it was caused by a weapon such as a spear.
Han Bing immediately tore off Yang Peng's armor and saw a bloody mess on his left chest, which was very seriously injured. Han Bing was taken aback and said angrily: "Such a serious injury! Why didn't you say anything?"
He ran to her horse and took several bottles of golden sore medicine from the leather bag.
Putting down the medicine bottle, she knelt in front of Yang Peng, and then took off all of Yang Peng's armor and shirt. Looking at Yang Peng's upper body, she was shocked. Chen Xiao's crisscrossed
The scars shocked her deeply! "You, on your body...?!"
Yang Peng smiled palely, "I have been a soldier for almost ten years, and I have gained nothing but scars all over my body." Han Bing couldn't help but be moved, and glanced at Yang Peng, something inexplicable flashed through his beautiful eyes.
Taste, "You are really experienced in hundreds of battles!" Yang Peng chuckled and couldn't help but murmured: "The yellow sand wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and I swear I won't return it if I don't break Loulan."
Han Bing's heart was stirred. He lowered his head and began to treat Yang Peng's wound carefully. After a lot of effort, it was finally bandaged. Han Bing wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand, raised his head, but
I found that Yang Peng had fallen asleep with his head sideways. He was too tired!
Han Bing was stunned, and quickly took his robe and covered him. Click, click, click... The sound of horse hooves suddenly came from outside the woods. Yang Peng woke up sensitively, and Han Bing quickly put out the bonfire and ran to
Under a big pine tree not far away, I put the arrow on the bowstring and stared out of the woods with vigilance.
Yang Peng found that the wounds on his body had been bandaged and knew that it was done by Han Bing. He couldn't help but glance at her back gratefully. He reluctantly stood up, walked to Han Bing and looked outside.
Under the dim moonlight, he could vaguely see hundreds of cavalry galloping towards him. Yang Peng frowned, "We can't win. You go first, and I'll hold them back!" Han Bing snorted. The team of cavalry
As he got closer, Yang Peng's face revealed a look of surprise, and he said excitedly: "It's one of our own!" Then he raised his voice and shouted: "Hey! I'm here!"
When the hundreds of cavalrymen heard the shouts in the woods, they immediately sped up and ran over. When they came to Chen Xiao, they all turned over and dismounted. The two leading knights knelt down to Yang Peng in great excitement and said: "Brother, we
I thought..." These two people were none other than Zhou Dayong and Cheng Shijie. After they were separated from Yang Peng, they fought fiercely with the Liao soldiers and finally escaped from the Liao soldiers. In fact, the reason why they were able to escape from the Liao soldiers
The main reason for the pursuit of troops was that the Liao army was pursuing Yang Peng with all their strength, so they were not too concerned about them. This gave them a chance to finally get rid of the Liao troops.
Yang Peng accidentally touched the wound, with a look of pain on his face. Only then did Zhou Dayong and Cheng Shijie realize that Yang Peng was seriously injured. They were surprised and quickly helped Yang Peng sit down. Zhou Dayong asked anxiously:
"Brother, are you injured?" Yang Peng nodded, smiled and said: "It doesn't matter." He glanced at Han Bing, who was standing silently in the distance, and said gratefully: "Thanks to Miss Han Bing!"
Only then did Zhou Dayong and Cheng Shijie realize that there was another person, and she was also a beautiful woman with a very handsome appearance. They quickly clasped their fists towards her and said, "Thank you for your help, girl!" Han Bing said coldly, "He owes me a debt.
Of course I can't let him die easily!" Zhou Dayong and Cheng Shijie were greatly surprised.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
