Shi Yan sat on the horse, his waist straight, not as if he had been bumping on the horse's back for several hours. Thousands of armor were riding on both sides of him. If you look down from a high altitude, it would be like a huge goose. Shi Yan was at the head of the goose. The Zhenhai Army's main formation, a mile away, was like a fresh fish, standing across the Huainan Iron Cavalry.

"Wow!" With a loud scream, Shi Yanle stopped his mount and carefully observed the battle situation: Zhenhai Army had reached a breakthrough against its central front and was sweeping to the left. He wanted to drive his side into the canal and annihilate it in one fell swoop. Judging from the enemy's flags and ceremonial guards in front of him, it should be the enemy's main formation. Even Lu Fang himself should be in the formation. Instead of fighting with the main force of Zhenhai Army with a large number of people, it is better to attack the enemy's main formation. Anyway, as long as Lu Fang himself is killed and captured, the entire Zhenhai Army's separatist force will no longer exist. Thinking of this, Shi Yan picked up the bone flute hanging around his neck and blew it violently.

With a sharp bone flute, the Shatuo cavalry slowed down and began to move closer to the center, forming a huge triangle, and the sharp corners pointed to the Zhenhai Army's main formation one mile away. Although there was still a distance between the Zhenhai Army formation, the huge pressure still caused many people in the formation to dry out, their hands and feet trembled, and even the spear in their hands could not be held firmly.

"This is the last breath of the Huainan Army. After urging them, they will be finished. Behead the first-level mulberry fields and reward them with five acres. The children will be re-employed for three years. The children who died in battle will be exempted from their ranks for five years. The families will be exempted from their ranks!" Wang Foer walked in the ranks and shouted loudly. The personal captain behind him repeated Wang Foer's words loudly. More than a dozen voices with different accents but equally thick echoed over the army. The soldiers of the Zhenhai Army gradually calmed down with the encouragement of the generals.

Soon Shi Yan sorted out his cavalry formation and began to rush towards Zhenhai Army's main formation. Compared with usual, the formation of the cavalry of the Huainan Army was much denser. The space between the left and right cavalry could only allow one person to move sideways. The reason was that Shi Yan knew that time was tight and could not tolerate first tempting attacks as usual, and then put in full force to kill one attack. Anyway, his side had a huge advantage, so he simply suffered a certain amount of losses to destroy the enemy formation. Even if he could not kill Lu Fang himself, he would still seize the banner and reverse the entire battle situation. The Huainan Army was not fast at the beginning, and it was about the same speed as the infantry's small steps and fast walking, but as the distance approached, the speed became faster and faster, just like a moving thick wall rushing towards Zhenhai Army's main formation.

"Boundler comes forward!" With the command of the captain, the crossbowmen walked out of the military formation. First, the crossbowmen fired, then the archers. The crossbowmen who had shot the arrows retreated back to the formation and replaced them with big sticks and long axes. These two weapons are more effective in close combat.

The sparse arrows fell into the ranks of Shatu Cavalry. Most of the arrows were bounced away by the armor on the cavalry. A few cavalry shot into horses or armor gaps fell to the ground in screams and were stepped into flesh mud by the knights behind. However, compared with the Shatu Iron Cavalry that was rushing like a rushing Shatu Iron Cavalry, this level of resistance was not even considered a degree of needle puncture. Shatu Iron Cavalry was still suppressed with a momentum like Mount Tai.

"Help!" As the distance between the two armies shortened, some people in the Zhenhai Army finally could not bear this pressure. They threw down the spear in their hands, turned around and fled. The captain who supervised the battle immediately pressed it to behead him immediately. Since these troops were all exhausted soldiers who had already fought hard, the system was also disrupted. Many old soldiers were killed in battle, and their ability to withstand pressure was naturally much worse. At this moment, the triangular point of Shatuo Iron Cavalry plunged into the Zhenhai Army.

Like most of the rushing battles, chaos ruled everything in this moment. Screams, metal impacts, and neighing filled the eardrums of everyone, but the soldiers on both sides seemed to hear nothing, wielding the weapons in their hands and stabbing at the enemy. Blood was sprayed like clear water. Many Shatuo cavalry, who were carrying heavy injuries, not only did not retreat, but instead slashed into the thighs of their war horses, and rushed into the dense spear formation ahead like a forest, killing four or five Zhenhai soldiers before they stopped. Even more than ten years later, many Zhenhai generals who were already the governor of a state mentioned the battle of the iron cavalry, still had their faces pale, like a nightmare.

Seeing that under the impact of Shatuo Iron Cavalry, the defense of Zhenhai Army was already shaking. Gao Fengtian, who was standing beside Lu Fang, looked even more pale and wanted to speak several times. But after looking at Lu Fang's face, he couldn't say it. He also knew that it was different from the moment. If it was feasible to retreat into the camp just now, Lu Fang would be able to collapse. Although the camp was two or three miles away behind him, it would probably be out of reach. The current strategy is to grit your teeth and die, and the rest can only rely on the blessing of gods and Buddhas. At this time, Gao Fengtian couldn't help but subconsciously recite the Diamond Sutra, which he had not read for many years, and pray for a miracle.

When Lu Fang heard the chanting of scriptures, he looked back at Gao Fengtian without saying much, but just smiled. Somehow, when Gao Fengtian saw Lu Fang so calm, his panic suddenly decreased three points. He was talking to him, but a loud noise came from his ears. When he looked back subconsciously, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

It turned out that Shatuo Army finally broke through a hole, and hundreds of cavalry were rushing out of which hole, and pounced on the small mound where Lu Fang Shuaiqi was located. The nearest one was less than seventy steps.

"King, take off your robe and change it to the Weichen!" Gao Fengtian didn't care about so much at this time, and reached out to remove the purple robe for Lu Fang. This luxurious brocade robe is not a good thing in the fierce battle later.

At this time, Lu Fang's face was a little pale, but he looked not very frightened. He reached out to stop Gao Fengtian's actions and asked, "If so, what should you do?" "I, Gao Fengtian, are not allowed to be without the king!" At this time, Gao Fengtian was already anxious and said sternly: "Come on, take off the king's clothes, put on ordinary soldiers' clothes, and send them back to the camp!"

In a busy situation on the top of the mound, Shatuo cavalry had already rushed to the mound, and Shi Yan was in it. He was about to rush up to the mound first. Suddenly, a burst of red light and white smoke flashed behind the bushes under the mound. Then he felt like lightning was hit by lightning. Half of his body suddenly disappeared. The cavalry on both sides of his body suddenly fell down and suddenly became a mess.

"Does Lu Fang really have a destiny and protected by ghosts and gods?" A thought flashed in Shi Yan's mind, and he couldn't help but feel panic. At this time, a breeze blew, blowing away the white smoke. Shi Yan immediately saw many figures flashing behind the bushes, which were vaguely the strange weapons he used to attack the Navy in Wujinchengxiacheng. Shi Yan was immediately excited. He knew that although this thing was extremely powerful, the interval between the two launches was very long. As long as they were not ready to kill before the second launch, they could win.

"Don't panic, my sons, Zhenhaijun just suddenly rushed to the mound and killed the head of Lu Fang, rewarded 10,000 yuan of money and 5,000 pieces of silk, and promoted to the governor of the state!" Shi Yan ignored the severe pain from his right shoulder, raised his sword with his left hand and shouted with a neighing voice. These cavalry were all elites who had been fighting for the rest of their lives and were used to life and death. They were just raided by mysterious weapons and were suddenly disrupted. Now, seeing that the commander was safe, he hung up such a high reward, and his morale rose instead of falling, and drove the war horses to rush towards the flag on the top of the mound. No one cared about the mortar position in the bushes on the side.

"What a great guy, I was shot by a shotgun, and I was so energetic. It was indeed a barbarian!" Lu Fang looked at the Shatuo Iron Cavalry under the mound and couldn't help but murmured to himself. Gao Fengtian, who was beside him, no longer pulled his clothes. Seeing that the lord was prepared, he was kept in the dark, his face was full of deception.

"The Bird Gun Team of Shenji Camp is preparing, target-" Lu Fang dragged his voice long. He had seen Shi Yan rushing in front. Although he was half-worn, the divine war horse and armor suit under his crotch had exposed his identity. "It's the one riding a dark horse, he must be a big man, use a soldier to shoot that person!" Lu Fang ordered loudly.

According to Lu Fang's order, the grenade gun shooters immediately aimed. It turned out that although the grenade gun of Zhenhai's army had been successfully tested before the war, the time was too short and the total was only 150. The role of such a few weapons on the battlefield of tens of thousands of troops was almost negligible. Lu Fang simply organized it into two teams and kept it for the purpose of the guards around him. When he happened to encounter Shi Yan's rushing into the formation, he came in handy.

With a loud bang, the Shatuo cavalry seemed to be struck by a huge thunder and fell off the horse and died one after another. Especially Shi Yan, who was being focused on, was even hit by five bullets. Although he was wearing heavy armor, within a distance of six or seven meters, the huge impulse carried by the lead bullet of the large-caliber coercine gun was enough to shatter all his internal organs, not to mention being hit by five bullets, he naturally died immediately. Wang Foer took the opportunity to lead the troops to launch a counterattack and wiped out the remaining troops.

"King, I'm so happy, so happy!"

Lu Fang was watching the battle situation in the distance in Qiuding, but heard someone shouting loudly beside him. When he looked back, it was Gao Fengtian. Wang Foer was still holding a head-level Wang Foer, who was also standing beside him, with a happy face. He was about to ask, but he heard Wang Foer say in a deep voice: "The king is indeed wise. The leader of the thief army riding a black horse just now was Shi Yan, the leader of the left wing of the thief in Huainan, and has been killed by our soldiers."

"Serious?" Lu Fang was overjoyed when he heard this. Although he had wiped out the small group of enemy soldiers just now, the situation under the mound was still in danger. But unexpectedly, Shi Yan went too bravely and was killed by his own firearm. He was really lucky.

"Yes, the head in the last general's hand is Shi Yan himself. I have just asked four or five Huainan thieves prisoners. They all said it was him, and they also found several things from his body!" Wang Foer took out a few things from his arms and placed them in front of Lu, all of which were seals, military talismans, and so on. Lu Fang looked at them carefully, and then he completely let down his heart that was hanging in his throat and smiled and said, "It's great. It seems that we have finally taken this battle. Foer, please pick the head with a spear, choose dozens of soldiers with loud voices, and call them to the Huainan thieves.

"Here!" Wang Fo'er responded cleanly and walked quickly. After a while, the shouts of "The head of the thief was killed!" echoed over the battlefield.

"What? General Shi was killed in battle?" Zhu Jin's face was full of unbelievable expressions on the canal riverside. This brave and powerful man's hands were trembling involuntarily.

"That's right! The sound of Zhenhaijun shouting was loud and he picked a head, and there was some seal armor next to him, saying that it was General Shi's." The captain who reported to him said that he did not dare to say anything anymore, but just knelt on the ground and shivered.

"Get up and talk!" Li Jian, who was standing aside, persuaded that since the war started, the right wing he led and Luo Renqiong on the opposite side had been tepid. The reason was that the land on the bank of the canal was rugged and could not be put into a large number of troops to fight. The existence of the canal restricted the possibility of detouring flanks. Both sides pushed five feet away, and I pushed back a tug-of-war of a battle. It was not until Wang Zisheng broke through the central front and swept over that Li Jian became more anxious.

It is said that the canal is only four or five meters wide and two meters deep. But it is not a day or two for tens of thousands of people to cross it, let alone the tens of thousands of soldiers who are like wolves and tigers. The only hope now is the left wing led by Shi Yan. After all, Zhu Jin gave him almost all the cavalry and a considerable number of infantry soldiers as soon as he opened, and the purpose of detour was to go from there. But until now, there was news that Shi Yan was dead. It was really strange.

"Grandpa Zhu, let's go to the front of the formation to take a look. Maybe it was Lu Fang's fellow who was following Wang Shichong's old wisdom and disturbing our military spirit." The Wang Shichong's old wisdom mentioned by Li Jian was the battle between Wang Shichong and Li Mi in Beishan in the early Tang Dynasty. Wang Shichong chose a person with a similar appearance to Li Mi, and killed him on the battlefield. His head was hanging that he had killed Li Mi. Li Mi's soldiers were fighting fiercely and could not tell the truth or falsehood. They were defeated for a while. Wang Shichong thus defeated Li Mi and occupied the Central Plains.

When Zhu Jin heard this, he didn't speak and nodded and went on the horse. However, Li Jian deliberately pulled back more than ten steps and whispered to Li Zhi: "The situation is not good now, and we must prepare for the retreat. You can quickly go to the river and prepare the ship." Li Yu understood and nodded and left.

At this time, the overall situation was settled. Zhenhai Army, which had completed the central breakthrough, surrounded the Huainan Army from the east and north sides, and the Jiangnan Canal to the south, and only to the west. Zhenhai Army had the idea of ​​surrounding three and one missing one, not trying to force the opponent to fight too tightly. Instead, it would cause too much loss. As for the left wing of the Huainan Army led by Shi Yan, the main force of the cavalry saw that the battle situation was not good for them, so many of them retreated alone. Shi Yan knew during his lifetime that these Shatuo cavalry were the foundation for his life in Huainan and did not allow outsiders to intervene, forming a small group with strong sects. As a result, once he died, Zhu Jin was not around. When the Shatuo cavalry saw that the battle situation was unfavorable, they left their friendly troops and left. As a result, the remaining Huainan infantry on the left wing did not have their support, and they had no choice but to take Wang Xuyu's troops to defend in the small hills.
