A large flag fluttered in the air, with the word "Huangfu" written on it. A person under the flag was wearing a battle armor. The eyes under the battle helmet were as sharp as knives. The big cloak was fluttering in the night wind, full of a murderous atmosphere.
This person is none other than Huangfu Yunzhao.
Two trumpeters were not far from Huangfu Yunzhao, blowing the trumpets at the same time, and there was also a sound of trumpets in the distance.
Huangfu Yunzhao looked at the battlefield where the fighting was going on. Without hesitation, he unsheathed his sword and raised it high. Without any nonsense, he swung the sword forward. Someone shook the big flag behind him desperately, and then he heard the hoofbeats of horses.
At the sound of the sound, hundreds of cavalrymen marching on both wings had already urged their horses forward, shouting and charging towards the battlefield.
Almost at the same time, the densely packed infantry behind Huangfu Yunzhao also shouted and rushed forward.
For a moment, this group of people was like a black torrent, sweeping towards the battlefield.
Huangfu Yunzhao did not join the battlefield in person, with a stern look on his face.
As the horn sounded from the east, Song Shixin took the lead, leading thousands of his men to rush towards the battlefield.
Of course Song Shixin did not disappear. He just detoured back to the east and prepared to attack the Liaodong Army from the flank. Huangfu Yunzhao's horn was the signal to launch the attack. After hearing the horn, Song Shixin led his men without hesitation.
The soldiers launched an attack.
The Liaodong cavalry did inflict a heavy blow to Chen Zhitai's troops in the first round of charge. In that short period of time, hundreds of people were killed or injured.
Although many cavalry fell into the battle formation and fought with Long Rui's soldiers, there were also hundreds of cavalry who passed through the battle formation and were regrouping on the south side of the battlefield, preparing to charge to the battlefield again. But while the team was forming,
Huangfu Yunzhao led his troops to the south, and the cavalry and infantry also rushed over quickly, giving no chance for the Liaodong cavalry to form a unit.
The hundreds of cavalrymen were frightened when they saw a large number of people coming to attack them. The cavalrymen turned their horses around and faced the enemy. They no longer cared about Chen Zhitai's troops behind them, so they could only block the enemies coming from the south.
In fact, many cavalry blocking the enemy also saw that the number of cavalry rushing over from the other side was actually not many, only two to three hundred, and the strength of the two sides was not much different.
But the opponent has already charged at them, and the Liaodong cavalry knows that they cannot hesitate at this time, let alone wait for the opponent to charge directly, otherwise the opponent will easily overwhelm their own cavalry with the force of the impact, and instantly
will be at a disadvantage.
In a cavalry confrontation, the brave one wins, the timid one dies!
These were all experienced Liaodong cavalry. They shouted and urged their horses to meet them. However, even so, the reaction was a little slow. The space between the two cavalry was limited. The other cavalry took the lead in charging and had already made full use of the limited charge.
distance, by the time the Liaodong cavalry began to urge their horses to meet them, the opponent's horses had already picked up speed, and their momentum instantly surpassed that of the Liaodong cavalry.
"Boom boom boom!"
The cavalry formations of both sides met head-on. For a moment, people screamed and horses neighed, swords flew, and the Liaodong cavalry formation was dispersed almost instantly.
What's even more terrible is that the uniforms of the enemy cavalry are almost the same as those of the Liaodong cavalry. The cavalry of both sides are entangled. The Liaodong cavalry cannot distinguish between ourselves and the enemy for a while. On the contrary, the enemy cavalry can obviously instantly identify who is one of their own.
Cut straight to the Liaodong cavalry.
There were endless screams for a while, and in a moment, countless Liaodong cavalry were chopped off their horses.
Although a few cavalrymen have discovered clues, the enemy cavalry has cloth strips wrapped around their necks, but the cloth strips are not conspicuous. Unless you pay attention consciously, you will not be able to notice it in a hurry.
The enemy cavalry were well prepared, and of course they could see the strips of cloth wrapped around their companions' necks at a glance.
Just this small trick is enough to put the Liaodong Cavalry into a state where it is difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. Even if someone discovers the flaw, it is only a few people in a hurry. Therefore, the Liaodong Cavalry sees that the opponent's attire is the same as his own, and swings his sword.
He would hesitate at any time, but the enemy cavalry showed no hesitation at all.
Huangfu Yunzhao's hundreds of cavalry were also his direct line cavalry.
Although these two groups of cavalry were both affiliated with the Liaodong Army in the past, they were strangers to each other and had no feelings of compatriots at all. Therefore, they were killed with great ferocity and without the slightest mercy.
The cavalry was unable to charge up, so its power was reduced by half, and a large number of infantry behind them also rushed up and quickly joined the battle group. Of course, these people knew that their cavalry had cloth strips wrapped around their necks, and they could immediately distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
Hundreds of Liaodong cavalry were killed one by one by the enemy's cavalry and infantry.
Tu Sima couldn't care less about Zhang Ke's thousands of Liaodong cavalry now. The situation on his side was even worse than that on the other side.
Although Zhang Ke's cavalry rushed Chen Zhitai's men and horses to pieces, causing a large number of Chen Zhitai's troops to be damaged, Dou Xiong's more than a thousand cavalry also rushed Tu Sima's men and horses into chaos. The two battles
?The battles were only two or three miles apart, but they were both extremely brutal, with roars and screams resounding through the sky. More than half of the guards around Tu Sima were killed or wounded, leaving only three cavalrymen doing their best to protect them.
A cavalry guard heard a roar coming from the side and turned his head to look, only to see a spear thrust straight towards him.
The opponent was a cavalryman, but instead of using a saber, he attacked with a spear.
The Guards Cavalry reacted extremely sensitively, turned away, and almost simultaneously reached out to grab the opponent's spear. At this moment, the opponent's horse had already come close to him. The Guards Cavalry grabbed the opponent's spear and wanted to
Without thinking, he struck the enemy cavalry in the chest with his sword. The cavalryman screamed and was chopped to pieces. As soon as his hand was loosened, he fell off the horse.
The Guards Cavalry was rejoicing when he felt a dark shadow flash beside him and turned around to look, but the knight had already passed by him. The Cavalry's attack was swift and neat, and the Guards Cavalry had not yet seen the opponent's appearance clearly.
The opponent's saber had already slashed on his neck, and the Guards Cavalry could even clearly hear the sound of his own throat being cut. His vision went black, blood spattered from the edge of the knife, and the whole man had already turned over and fell off his horse.
Killing and being killed happen in the blink of an eye.
Tu Sima watched the Guards Cavalry being chopped down and dismounted. He wanted to call out a warning, but as soon as he shouted, the Guards Cavalry had been hacked to death. In the darkness, he saw the tall man who hacked the Guards Cavalry.
Wearing armor, he recognized it at a glance and said in a voiceless voice: "Dou Xiong, you!"
Dou Xiong was a few steps away from Tu Sima, holding a saber in his hand. Under his helmet, his eyes were staring at Tu Sima coldly.
His armor was covered in blood, and his whole person looked even more murderous.
Tu Sima clenched his saber and said sternly: "Dou Xiong, you shameless traitors will not die in peace!"
"Tu Moting, you dug your own grave and you can't blame anyone." Dou Xiong did not come to kill him immediately, but sneered: "Speaking of traitors, you and Wang Xingchao are the traitors who betrayed the Tang Dynasty. As the epidemic spreads, you guys
You don't think about preventing the epidemic, but you still want to take advantage of the opportunity to make peace in the palace, regardless of the life and death of the people. Such despicable and despicable people will be really ashamed of your company."
Sima Tu Moting said bitterly: "You, the Dou family, are taking advantage of the general's gift without thinking of repaying the favor. You are ungrateful."
"This general is eating Lumi from the Tang Dynasty. What does it have to do with Wang Xingchao?" Dou Xiong said: "I think back then the Liaodong cavalry were so powerful that they would kneel down wherever they went. What does the Liaodong Army look like today?
It is full of treacherous people who only care about pleasure and reject dissidents, and have never thought about the people of the four northeastern counties. They watched the Bohai Sea grow in power, but turned a blind eye, making the Bohai Sea a trouble for the Tang Dynasty."
Tu Moting mocked and said with a smile: "You are talking shamelessly here today. If you are really loyal to the country, why have you not dared to advise the general for so many years? In the end, it is better to be wise and protect yourself."
"That's right." Dou Xiong said: "So now that I think about it, I feel ashamed. But since I know I was wrong, I should make up for it. Tu Moting, you and I are colleagues. I will give you a chance today. As long as you dismount and surrender, I will
The general will not kill you, but will also help you intercede with General Qin and let him treat you lightly."
Tu Moting laughed and said: "You are greedy for life and afraid of death, so you surrendered to Qin Xiao, and you think that Sima is also a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? Dou Xiong, you and Huangfu Yunzhao will sell out and seek glory, and neither will end well."
He held the knife tightly and said sternly: "I want to clean up the house for the general!"
He shouted loudly, urged his horse and rushed towards Dou Xiong.
Dou Xiong did not move, however, and watched coldly as Tu Moting rushed over with his sword. He saw Tu Moting's horse passing by, and the sword was already slashing at him. Dou Xiong then raised his sword to block, "
With a "choking" sound, the two swords clashed, and sparks flew everywhere.
Tu Moting's arm shook violently, and he felt numbness in his mouth.
He knew that Dou Xiong was a brave general in the Liaodong Army. If he fought alone, he would never be Dou Xiong's opponent. But now, he could only fight to the death.
The reason is simple. The ambush battle that he facilitated ended up falling into Huangfu Yunzhao's trap. Wang Xingchao's three thousand elite troops would probably be wiped out here.
This was Wang Xingchao's capital, and it would be completely destroyed in one battle. Tu Moting knew what the result would be.
Even if he had a chance to escape, he would definitely die if he returned to Liaodong, not to mention that there was no possibility of breaking out at the moment.
Of course he didn't dare to surrender.
His family members were all in Liaodong, and he destroyed Wang Xingchao's 3,000 main force and surrendered to Long Rui's army. Wang Xingchao got the news that the entire Tu family would definitely be killed, leaving no one behind. His only choice was to die in battle.
Here, there is a glimmer of hope to save one's family.
He knew that he was no match for Dou Xiong, and he never thought that he could kill Dou Xiong.
He even hoped that Dou Xiong could kill him with one sword, so that he could be happy.
The horses passed by each other, and he immediately turned the horse's head and roared towards Dou Xiong again.
Dou Xiong had also turned his horse around. This time he was no longer polite. His expression was stern and his eyes were like daggers. He urged the horse and swung his sword to meet him.
The two riders passed each other, and only a scream was heard. The saber in Tu Moting's hand had already flown up, and his right arm holding the saber had been cut off by Dou Xiong at the elbow. When his right arm flew out, it was still holding the saber.
Holding that sword.
Blood splattered from the broken arm, and Tu Moting was in agony. When the two remaining guards saw this, they rushed forward to save him, but several cavalrymen rushed out and blocked the two guards.
Dou Xiong turned his horse around and caught up with Tu Moting. This time, he did not draw his sword. Instead, he reached out and grabbed Tu Moting's broken arm, shoulder and shoulder plate. With a sharp roar, he pulled Tu Moting off the horse.
.
Tu Moting fell from his horse. Dou Xiong put the tip of his knife against his chest and said in a cold voice: "The situation is over. There is no need to add more casualties. Let them put down their weapons and we can spare their lives." Then he shouted to the sky.
: "Tu Moting is captured, but those who abandon their weapons will not be killed!"
