Chapter 467 The general trend is gone

Countless men had blood rushing and were walking with snares. Many military officers who had been with Qinfeng Road and Hedong Road for many years also took the opportunity to encourage their subordinates to stay in the camp to follow Li Kaiming. They were originally trained elite miners. Half of the miners were in the North and half in the South. Li Kaiming had a small number of old soldiers who were guarding their soldiers for many years, and the miners led by military officers were always fighting with ordinary civilians. At this time, thousands of miners, led by Li Kaiming, flocked out in single clothes and snares.

The key point of this battle has arrived!

In the northern camp, the drums suddenly became loud. The main force of the bandits who were originally in line with the Xiang army were actually rushing towards the Xiang army formation despite the large number of soldiers in the Xiang army, but under the inspiration of the drums, they rushed towards the Xiang army formation.

"The common people's hair is like leeks, and they are cut like a leaf..." Li Kaiming sang leisurely on the yellow horse.

Qin Opera Cangliang is simple and exciting on the battlefield.

"The head is like a chicken, cut and crow again!"

A considerable number of Qin Feng people and Hedong people sang together.

This famous song started from the Eastern Han Dynasty. It was sung during countless uprisings from thousands of miles away. Although the government has repeatedly banned it, it has not stopped. Since the bandits resurrected, this song of war that has been covered with dust for hundreds of years has become like a pearl being wiped away from the dust, and has once again burst out with charm.

More men from Fujian Road, Jiangxi Road, Jingbei and Jingnan sang together.

"The official does not have to be afraid, he will always be careless, but he will hope to calm down!"

In the singing, no matter the archer, the archer, the shield, countless people, miners, and the old soldiers of the rebel army followed Li Kaiming and fought towards the imperial guard formation that was lined up.

Countless people sang forward, with their shield hands hitting the shield with their swords, and their hands were swaying forward. There was no other sound when the sound waves came, and even the intense drum beats were suppressed.

Amid the singing of countless people, an unparalleled feeling surged into everyone's hearts.

This desolate war song started from the end of the Han Dynasty, but appeared on the battlefield of the Great Wei Dynasty. The ancient history of the past and the current reality were combined, as if the heroic spirits of our ancestors were floating in the air, looking down at these juniors on the battlefield. The songs were ancient and simple, as if they were excavated from the tomb, but they were incomparable to the current situation. The songs were majestic and sad, and they could not express the bitterness and suffering of the people. If Xu Zi was here first, he would definitely feel complicated and even extremely sad.

The descendants of the Han people had the momentum of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. No matter if you are the emperor, the noble and noble family, you are extremely noble. Once the people feel oppressed and there is no way to survive, the Lishou can lift up the stern and cut off the woods. After the uprising, even the emperor will not take it seriously. So what if you behead it? The heads of the minority people are like leeks, and they will be cut back and resurrected.

This kind of heroism is only inherited by the Chinese lineage and is continuously inherited!

In the eyes of Liu Guangsi and other generals of the forbidden country, the bandits' counterattack was just a helpless act of desperation. Although they were slightly surprised by the bandits' courage, the generals of the Imperial Army did not see the current counterattack enemy.

Although it is twice as many as the slinger and shield hand in front of the imperial guards, the two wings can be suppressed with the archer, after all, the number of bandits is eight times that of the imperial guards. However, in the view of Liu Guangsi and others, the gap in training, experience, and equipment cannot be made up with a life-threatening attitude.

On the other side, more than 10,000 bandits also set up assault arrays and rushed towards more than 60,000 wing troops.

King Zhao, who was on the high slope, opened his eyes slightly, and felt a little surprised, and also something strange.

The situation of the thieves and the two camps in the north and south really made King Zhao a little confused.

On the one hand, he dared to counterattack the imperial guards, while the Beiying, which had fewer people and more elites, took the initiative to attack.

"That's good." Xu Ziwei held his arms beside King Zhao, comforting his war horse that was excited by the shouting of killing, and said to King Zhao: "Father, both sides can quickly decide the outcome."

King Zhao nodded slightly. This was very obvious. Xu Ziwei didn't need to call himself an experienced general and specifically reminded him.

The Xiang army was soon hit by the fierce rain of arrows from the bandits.

The wing army has more than 60,000 people divided into dozens of battalions. The camp flag is spread along a battlefield more than four miles wide. The entire impact array is quite thick. The front formation has already arrived in front of the thief camp, and the rear formation is still two or three miles later. Since the wing camp is on a high slope, the wing army is moving upward in an upward attack posture. Due to the lack of morale and the original military literacy is extremely low. When the wing army archers began to shoot arrows randomly, and the arrows they shot were mostly inserted in the thief formation dozens of steps.

In addition, it seemed like a thatch that followed suddenly emerged. When more than ten thousand bandits attacked, the Xiang army's formation had begun to become chaotic. Many soldiers in front of the formation subconsciously wanted to turn around and retreat and hide behind their companions. Their companions also hoped to hide behind others. All kinds of chaotic postures, not to mention that compared with the imperial guards and elite bandit soldiers, even the civilians in the bandits who had joined the army for less than two months, the performance of the Xiang army soldiers was far inferior.

When King Zhao saw him from afar, he was shocked and angry. He immediately sent his personal guards to the front of the wing army formation to scold He Deqing, Liu Jie and others.

Many generals of the Xiangdu were also anxious. They had a tacit understanding with the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army would not chew the bones hard... Moreover, it might not be able to chew the bones hard. The Xiangdu army did not work hard, so they besieged Beiying, cut off its traffic with Nanying and Jianyang County, and eventually forced the elite bandits to cross the mountains... In this way, even if the strategic goal was achieved, the King of Zhao would definitely have a heavy reward afterwards.

There is no ambition on the battlefield, but if the Xiang army is easily defeated by a few enemies in front of them, they also understand that they will be liquidated by the angry King Zhao after the war.

He Deqing, Liu Jie and others successively ordered to send their confidants to form a supervision team. Anyone who retreated to the back would be killed immediately in front of the formation.

After cutting down dozens of heads, the wing army's position was slightly stable.

The bandits did not shoot arrows one after another. The elite array of more than 10,000 people was extremely strict. It was about a mile long and about three rows thick. Most of the soldiers in the front row were wearing armor and holding snails forward, and they were like forests. They did not shoot with bows and arrows as imagined, and they came directly with a hand-to-hand sumo wrestling.

A large number of bandits came in armor and when they were placed flat and long, they were waving. When they were nearly a hundred steps, a large number of bandits were already scared. Because the bandits looked ferocious, their brave and murderous faces made the bandits feel irresistible.

Most of the elite bandits were miners, and all the military officers led by the team were elite soldiers among the bandits. The long formation of more than 10,000 people was like a storm of waves, and they instantly met the front formation of the wing army.

The long slings are flat, front stings, and the sound of shouting and killing are mixed with the high singing not far away. The crackling sounds and muffled sounds of the iron slings pierced into the human body, as well as continuous screams, and various sounds burst out in an instant.

At the same time, thunder suddenly appeared not far away. Many people subconsciously looked up at the sky. The sky was still very clear. This was also the fundamental reason for the battle between the two sides. If the weather was cloudy and rainy, both sides would not fight in such weather. Both sides believed that they would win, and the battle would be held. Rainy weather would make the bowstring weak and even damage the bow and arrows. Only on sunny days would both sides set up their arrays and carry out the battle.

The sky was blue, of course it was not the thunder shaking. At this time, King Zhao and others woke up and looked at a place not far away.

On the northwest side several miles away, between the rolling hills and fields, and after one deserted village, more than a thousand bandit cavalry gradually gathered together, like raging waves, like thunder, and like unstoppable giant beasts, roaring and whistling!

King Zhao originally thought that these enemy cavalry were going to attack the food road from the side, but he never thought that the bandits had such courage and determination, but did not put the light cavalry outside to support the food road, or to escort the food road, or to flee when they were defeated, but held it in his hands like a victory or defeat. At the critical moment, he actually used it like this!

The soldiers of the wing army were immediately in an uproar, facing the elite bandits head-on, which was already difficult to resist the enemy, and there were more than a thousand enemy cavalry on the flanks. Although the light cavalry attacked, they still had the momentum of thunder... The cavalry was against infantry, especially for light infantry who lacked training and had no tactical qualities.

It is simply a natural advantage to attack the weak with strong strength.

The soldiers of the Youxiang Army looked distracted and shouted: "I've lost, I've lost."

"So what if you lose?" someone said with a sweat on his head: "There is a supervising team behind him."

"So what about the supervision team?" Qiu Guangzong, who was tall and strong and had a lot of prestige in the army, shouted: "The generals have divided our salary, equipment and grain, but they asked us to work hard when they were fighting. Is there such a reason in the world? I was about to work hard last night, and I still thought that my family had no one to raise. When I was dying, the last meal I ate was boiled black beans, but the damn Dawei, go to the damn King Zhao, I will turn the other way!"

Qiu Guangzong had a premeditation, and he had secretly connected with many like-minded soldiers of the Xiang army, and some even had the intention at the level of the team. At this time, Qiu Guangzong raised his arms and shouted, and of course there were only a few people who were willing to rebel with him... The Xiang army was short of food and salary and could at least survive, and could barely support the family. However, the treatment was too poor and the injustice he encountered also made a large number of Xiang army soldiers have no intention of fighting.

Before this battle, the food and salary that Li Anyuan, Zheng Liqi, Yang Shiwei and others were most worried about was indeed the soldiers of the wing army.

The bandit cavalry suddenly broke out and cut into the wing army formation like a quick knife. However, a large number of wing army soldiers fled in front of the formation and even turned against each other. Many wing army turned around and rushed towards their own supervisor team, and used their courage to slash the personal guards sent by the generals, but instead cut the supervisor team into pieces and failed to form a army.

In an instant, the situation immediately reversed, and more than 60,000 xiang troops immediately disintegrated, allowing the cavalry to rush left and right. Many xiang generals wanted to gather their troops, but there was no possibility of this. They could only escape separately and flee to the temporary camp they set up last night.

While the Zhao and his son were stunned, the battlefield in the south was still in a state of intense struggle.

Amid the loud and tragic singing, Jianzhou Minzhuang, who had been trained for less than two months, fought a melee with a large number of imperial guards. The imperial guards suffered a loss because they were too few and there were too many archers. The imperial guards in the sudden attack were only more than 3,000 soldiers, and were besieged ten times the Minzhuang. Even so, it was obvious that a large number of bandits did not have an array, and they were almost fighting on their own. Only a small number of elite troops of less than a thousand people could barely form a formation and resist the spirit of the imperial guards. A large number of civilians, holding various weapons, and a chaotic array, could fight hard with the powerful and elite imperial guards. Although the casualties were extremely painful, there were endless singers. Many ordinary people, with inferior weapons, rushed forward in the singing, fighting with those imperial guards with skilled skills and armor.

Even the unarmed civil warriors were seriously injured and unarmed, and when they were dying, they rushed forward, hugged, or even rolled on the ground and bite them with their teeth. As long as they could entangle an imperial guard, they would die without regrets.

"Wang Jianzhou deserves death!"

Seeing the collapse of the north side, the wing army was like the snow splashed over by boiling water, melting instantly, while the elite imperial guards in the south were entangled by tens of thousands of bandits and were unable to escape, King Zhao also gritted his teeth and hated the dead Wang Yue to the core.

If it weren't for the rebelliousness of Jianzhou, the people who had just rebelled, how could these Jianzhou people who had just rebelled so hard and not afraid of death?

It was because it was too hard before that the people were almost at the point of eating. After Li Kaiming raised the flag, although he tortured many wealthy households and made the local area uneasy, the ordinary people under his control were donating porridge and clothes, which made Jianzhou, after the first cold winter, not the expected large number of poor people died of hunger and cold, but saved most of the lives of half a person.

Now these young and old wives and children in Beiying are all resettled in the county town or other places. If you win this battle, you will have a chance to breathe. The so-called singing is just a rebound in the previous anger. In addition, you want to defeat the officers and soldiers so that your wives and children can spend the winter safely.

As for longer-term ideas and goals, these Jianzhou people who are struggling to do their best will not think about it, nor can they think about it.

While King Zhao was sneering his teeth, he felt that the situation was over.
