As soon as the two armies came into contact, Cao Bao regretted it. [Those words to boost morale not only deceived the soldiers, but also deceived himself. To be precise, he really thought so.
He originally thought that the Qingzhou Army on the mountain did not have high fighting spirit. Even if they persisted in not retreating, they would only have the power to defend themselves. They would not and could not have the power to fight back.
As a result, the other party gave him a hard blow as soon as he came up.
This army, which had just experienced a rout, exploded with astonishing fighting power. Although their number was several times smaller than Cao Bao's army, they were fearless and actually charged into Cao Bao's phalanx head-on!
This Qingzhou Army belongs to the Yulin Army, but their fighting style is different from Yu Jin's own army. Compared with the latter, there are countless flaws in their ranks, like a handful of soldiers with countless incomplete
serrated knife.
But even such a dull knife has extremely powerful combat power when wielded forcefully!
The serrated knife exerted the effect of a large axe. With just one swing of the knife, a thick layer of Cao Bao's 8,000-man phalanx was cut off.
The soldier of Cao Bao's army who was charging forward had just thrust out the spear in his hand. Before he could cheer and hit the enemy, he screamed and fell down. In disbelief, he saw the enemy's ring-headed knife being pulled out from his body and carrying it with him.
A flash of blood struck his companion. Then, he heard his companion's screams and the sound of heavy objects falling into the dust.
The moment they fell into the dust, the soldier was still puzzled. He didn't understand why the other party had clearly seen the spear he held high and bumped into it, and he could still maintain such strong fighting power.
Obviously we are in a foreign land, obviously there is no reason to fight to the death, obviously...
He died with his eyes open, looking at the bright blue sky with empty eyes, as if he was still questioning why until his death.
The offensive of Cao Bao's army came to an abrupt end. With a huge collision, the formations of both the enemy and ours instantly changed. The soldiers faced each other and squeezed their opponents with shields, stabbing each other with swords and spears between the shields and arms.
People kept screaming and falling down, but the formations on both sides refused to take a step back. The living people stepped on the corpses of their companions, waving their swords and spears staggeringly, and the injured people cried loudly, but they couldn't pray.
any mercy.
The soldiers in the front row were all quickly wiped out. The soldiers in the back row rushed forward desperately. People were pushing and squeezing each other, and their flesh and blood were flying everywhere!
Cao Bao is just a idiot, Zhang Lie, and Xu Dan are not much better. If it weren't for the friendship between fellow villagers and the lack of cooperation among Xuzhou celebrities, Tao Qian wouldn't have been able to promote them.
But Cao Bao's army is not weak at all. The main force that makes up this army is the world-famous Danyang warrior! Cao Bao has boosted their morale, and they have shown considerable resilience even in the face of sudden attacks.
Taking advantage of the geographical advantage, the Qingzhou Army struggled forward and pushed downwards, trying to push the enemy down the hillside, causing chaos and even a small-scale retreat. However, Cao Bao's Army relied on its numerical advantage to counterattack forcefully, trying to squeeze the Qingzhou Army that broke into the square formation into
meat pie.
The stalemate was short but long. Countless lives returned to the embrace of the earth at this moment, and countless souls flew into the sky. They looked down at their bodies in the wind with nostalgia, without hatred, only with deep attachment to life.
The sky and the earth were filled with shouts of killing, and the sun in the sky was frightened. He hurriedly pulled a cloud over and blocked his face. The earth became dark, as if a reluctant soul covered the sky.
The wind howls, the water rustles, the color of the sky changes, the earth becomes depressed, and only the fire-like war flags fly in the wind.
The forwards of Cao Bao's army were slowly pushed back. Although their numbers were large, the forwards alone were nearly three times as many as their opponents, but their fighting spirit was more than a hundred times higher than theirs.
The powerful warriors from Danyang couldn't figure it out. It was clear that the other party was the invader, and there were no mountains or rivers blocking the way behind them. Facing an enemy several times stronger than themselves, where did such powerful murderous intent come from? Look at them.
With red eyes and desperate looks, it was as if everyone on their side owed each other hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Is the coach taking the lead?
Perhaps, in the chaotic battle, there are a few points that are the most conspicuous. One of them is under the flaming red flag of the Chinese army. A figure like a god of war in black armor is waving a long spear. There is no general under his command, and the momentum is like breaking bamboo.
General tore a big hole in the phalanx of the forward army.
There is no doubt that it is the enemy Chieftain Yu!
Under the leadership of such a fierce general, the morale of the army will naturally be improved to a certain extent, but it should not be improved to such a terrifying level.
Almost every member of the Qingzhou Army is fighting risking their lives...
Trade injury for injury!
Trade injury for life!
Life for life!
Three thousand soldiers broke out into a fighting force as strong as a thirty thousand army. Looking at this scene, who can believe that not long ago, in full view of everyone, this army had a large-scale rout?
Doubts were accumulating, but they were soon answered.
After the initial chaos, under the command of the Chinese Army, the Qingzhou Army found a rhythm and followed a specific rhythm, gradually developing from a melee to an overall offensive.
It is impossible to trace who shouted it out first, but soon, a slogan appeared in this specific rhythm. The Qingzhou soldiers were like trackers on the Yellow River. Every time they took a step forward, they burst out a trumpet neatly.
Zi. That chant is like a magic spell, seizing people's hearts and minds, causing countless people to risk their lives and forget about death.
Cao Bao was dumbfounded at the foot of the mountain. Zhang Xiao, who played the trumpet, opened his mouth, and Xu Dan, who played the drum, lowered his hands. They couldn't understand how such a common word could have such a magical effect.
Although the warm spring breeze blew from behind, and the sun could not restrain its curiosity, it pushed away the clouds in front of its face and spread the warm sunshine to the earth again, but it could not dispel the chill in the hearts of Cao Bao and the others.
"Big man!" an unknown soldier in the front row shouted, brandishing a knife, and squeezed in between several Danyang soldiers. The swords and spears stabbed from all directions soon made his body bleed profusely. When the blood was gone, his strength was exhausted.
Before, he had caused at least four Danyang soldiers to lose their combat effectiveness.
"Big man!" A soldier who fell to the ground yelled at the top of his lungs, rolled down the mountain, and hugged an enemy's calf. The two rolled in a pool of blood, fighting with knives, knees, teeth, and all available offensive weapons.
Use them all until both parties die together.
"Brothers, in the name of Han, kill!" Wang Yu held a long spear in his hand, sweeping it horizontally, smashing it vertically, and swiping it diagonally, like an angry dragon rushing over a river or a unicorn roaring into the sea. A big gap was quickly opened in the enemy formation in front of him.
Countless loyal and brave soldiers rushed in through the gap, setting off a wave of blood higher than the previous wave.
Cao Bao, who was not very capable but had many ideas, could not understand, nor could the Danyang soldiers, who were good at fighting, understand why the people of Qingzhou shouted such war cries so passionately.
Don't they know that the great Han Dynasty is already declining and his strength is almost exhausted?
Do they really not understand that what the princes in the world are fighting for is the cauldron of the Han Dynasty, and what they are chasing is the deer of the Han Dynasty?
Just because Wang Yu casually swore an oath, did they believe him to be true and think that he was really a loyal minister and a righteous man?
Isn't it too naive and ridiculous? In Qingzhou, even the reign name and legal system have been changed! This is de facto treason!
But no matter how he questioned it, the desperate fight in Qingzhou before him was real. Cao Bao found it ridiculous that a man who was committed to bringing everything back to the Han Dynasty inspired the whole army in the name of Han.
Determination to die, is there anything more ridiculous and ironic than this in the world?
He doesn't understand, and most bystanders like him don't understand either.
Wang Yu's behavior of overthrowing the Han system while vowing not to proclaim himself emperor seems absurd and hypocritical, but in the territory of Qingzhou, under the deliberate guidance of the public opinion system, after nearly a year of fermentation, many things have begun
It has developed in the direction Wang Yu expected.
The most important thing is that people have a vague concept of country and gradually understand "Han Dynasty" as "Han State".
The country is home. In their own homeland, everyone will enjoy national treatment that is much higher than before, and at the same time, they also have obligations that they should fulfill.
For thousands of years, China has used the emperor to represent the country. Therefore, the saying that there is an emperor and one courtier, as long as there is no large-scale war, the reincarnation of the dynasty has nothing to do with ordinary people.
Wang Yu's contradictory behavior vaguely hints that this country will no longer be a dynasty, because there is no supreme emperor, only the spirit left by the strong men and the heroic deeds of the martyrs.
Of course, freezing three feet does not happen in a day. This kind of change in concept cannot be effective overnight. In Qingzhou, the concept of the country has not even begun to take shape. If it is not urgent this time, Wang Yu
I won't use this trump card either.
But this trick is very effective.
In the later Ming and Qing Dynasty story-telling novels, the word "people miss the Han" often appears. It was used in the era of Wang Mang's chaos and Guangwu Zhongxing, and also in the Three Kingdoms era. The "Han" that most people miss is not the Han Dynasty.
But it was the peaceful years.
Therefore, taking the name of Han is inherently inciting. Combined with Wang Yu's identity and the new policies implemented by Qingzhou over the past year, Langya Yulin, who was inspired by Wang Yu to fight, easily became involved.
"Big man!" the soldiers shouted, risking their lives.
They are not fighting for the emperor, nor are they fighting for the ambitions of the princes. They are fighting to calm down the troubled times as soon as possible, use the name of Han to stop the careerists who are causing trouble in the world, and bring the once prosperous age to the people of the world again.
Their minds are firm and pure, so they can move forward without hesitation!
The Danyang warriors could understand what the other party said, but they did not understand what the other party was thinking, but they could feel the enthusiasm in the other party's eyes at this moment. They began to hesitate and retreat, and some soldiers standing at the end of the squashed phalanx began to
Relax your steps and step back.
As soon as the crowd behind them lightened up, the soldiers in the front row who were under tremendous pressure immediately accelerated their retreat. Like the tide hitting the rocks, the morale inspired by the high-ranking officials and their generous salaries declined like the tide. They rushed forward faster than they could.
The speed slowed down, leaving broken weapons and corpses on the ground.
Who can not retreat in the face of a powerful force named Han?
