Chapter 156 Lost
Zuoshan Diao Xie Wendong looked at the battlefield in shock. How long has it been since the battle started? Is it a quarter of an hour? The Taoshan coalition, with 25,000 people, took the initiative to attack the Huaihuang army, which had only 5,000 people. Facing the Huaihuang army that was defending the slope, as the coalition forces that took the initiative to attack, they were defeated in less than a quarter of an hour. He had never seen such a battle. Before the battle, he knew that the Taoshan army could not defeat the Huaihuang army, but he never expected that the Taoshan army would be defeated so miserably.
Dou Jiande, who disguised himself as Xie Wendong's personal soldiers, was actually shocked, but he covered up the shock very well, pretended to have known this calmness, and turned toward Xie Wendong. "The Allies have been defeated and are about to collapse. Keep an eye on the old knife's hand and don't let him run away."
Xie Wendong finally came to his senses and nodded quickly. He was so scared of Huaihuang Army and Yi Lingyun.
Xie Wendong was also a little more cautious and polite to Dou Jiande, "General Dou, the former army retreated soon after, and I immediately led the cavalry of the headquarters to rush to Lao Daozi, and then turned against him. How about capturing the old thief?"
"Suddenly attack, will you capture the thief and the king?" Dou Jiande didn't seem too surprised, but just repeated calmly, then stared at him and said, "How sure are you?"
"At least 60% sure, there are not many people around Lao Daozhuzi. Once the soldiers in front are defeated, the army is in panic. Someone leads the cavalry in the main unit to shout that they are defeated. At that time, the coalition forces will inevitably be in chaos and at a loss. At this time, we rushed towards Lao Daozhuzi, suddenly attacked, cut off the flag of the Allied Army, and directly captured the thief and the king."
Flags are extremely important on the battlefield. Especially when the flag of the commander is turned down, in ancient times, it is very easy to cause fear and chaos, and even directly defeat. Especially now, for the Taoshan army, the front cannot be defeated and is about to retreat. If at this time, the flag of the commander in the rear falls down and fights against each other, then even if the coalition army still has more than 20,000 troops, it will still be defeated like a mountain and will be defeated directly.
"Hahaha!" Dou Jiande couldn't help but admire Xie Wendong's madness. This old guy was really not soft-hearted when he betrayed his original allies at the critical moment. This move was simply to remove the firewood from the cauldron, and would directly destroy the last hope of the Taoshan Alliance Army. "The master Xie is indeed aware of it. After the matter is completed, he will surely report the master's achievements to the leader."
Xie Wendong was slightly proud and quickly asked the messenger to call his leaders.
"After listening to my order, we will rush straight to the main formation of the central army, follow a certain flag to capture Shuai, and join the leader of Huaihuangyi." As he said that, he picked up the knife and pulled out the hem of the white middle coat inside the armor and cut it, and held it in his hand and raised it. "After taking action, we tied a piece of white cloth on our arms and forehead. Anyone who did not tied a white cloth was enemies, not friends. Whoever dared to stop us would kill them, do you understand?"
A leader asked in a low voice, "Our thousand infantry are still in the front army, what should they do?"
Xie Wendong glared at the subordinate, "It's time now, how can we take care of them? If the Allied Horses are about to be defeated, we must start immediately and take down the old knife handle to end the battle as soon as possible. Otherwise, if we drag on it, there will only be more people who die."
At this time, two groups of troops sent by Zhao Cheng attacked the two wings of Huaihuang Army, but they failed for a long time. After fighting for a long time, they could not break through the positions of the Huaihuang Army's cavalry.
The front-on-front army had collapsed. More and more coalition forces no longer rushed forward, but began to turn around and rush backward. Their last bit of courage disappeared, just like when they first rushed out. At this time, everyone tried their best to scream and yelled backward to escape, throw away their armor, just to run faster and leave the formation of death earlier. Many people collided with each other, squeezed and rushed, and some even slashed at the friendly forces blocking the road with swords and guns, without any mercy.
Lao Daozhanzi was extremely frightened under the Central Army's flag. He could not defeat him and could withdraw him. But now these people were completely brave and did not wait for the order, but they directly fought each other, just to escape back. "Transfer the order, transfer the reserve team to move forward, stabilize the formation, and those who dare to turn back to rush back to the formation will be killed without mercy." Lao Daozhanzi was still very cruel. He knew that at this time, he would let the defeated soldiers return to the main formation and might cause the entire Allied troops to collapse. In order to avoid this evil consequence, he had to transfer the troops who were originally used as the reserve team and let them temporarily act as the supervisor. Establish a fire belt between the back and the defeated soldiers in the front formation to prevent the entire army from collapsing.
A messenger rode his horse and quickly rushed to Xie Wendong's formation and conveyed the order of Lao Daozi.
After hearing the order, Xie Wendong sneered twice, then suddenly drew his sword and knocked off guard to the off guard messenger. He carried the long sword with a knife, swept his stunned subordinates over and shouted: "Follow us!" Then he immediately took out a white cloth strip and tied one on his forehead and arms, then turned around and ran backwards.
The order flag in the rear was shaking, and the war drums sounded, urging Xie Wendong's cavalry to step forward. Unfortunately, Xie Wendong was unmoved at all. He rushed towards the direction of the old sword-handled flag without hesitation, and shouted at the coalition forces blocking the road: "Defeated, defeated!"
Hundreds of Black Stone Village light cavalry tied white cloth strips on their heads and arms, staring at the handsome flag of the old knife, shouting without looking back, "Defeated, defeated, escape!"
The incident broke out and everyone was caught off guard.
The counterfeit soldiers and horses couldn't figure out what was going on. They saw Xie Wendong suddenly leading a large team of horses to run from the front and back, and shouting all the way, losing and running. Soon, their faces changed drastically, and they followed the wind and ran away. The old knife was still waiting for Xie Wendong's team to go up to block the defeated soldiers of the front army. Suddenly, countless smoke and dust rose up, and then panic shouts were everywhere. The next moment, Xie Wendong, who should have appeared in the front, rushed towards this side with a large group of people.
In front of the Huaihuang Army, the archers were still firing arrows. At this time, each of them had shot a pot of arrows and the second pot of arrows was already in front of them. However, the speed slowed down after all, but the rain of arrows in the sky was still harvesting the lives of Taoshan soldiers.
At this moment, Gao Jia suddenly pointed to the distance opposite and shouted in shock: "Sanlang, look, the thief army's flag has fallen!"
Ling Yun looked up at the distance, and sure enough, the two-foot flag of the leader of the alliance, which had been knocked down by the old sword, had fallen to the ground. When the alliance commander's flag fell, more than 20,000 Taoshan troops would think that the rear army had been attacked and the rear route was destroyed, and the Allied troops had lost command. At this moment, the Taoshan Allied troops had lost unified dispatch from this moment, began to fight on their own, and retreated on their own. More than 20,000 Allied troops had collapsed in a blink of an eye. The troops that were originally barely organized had returned to the original situation of the village leaders and headquarters.
The defeat was like a mountain of defeat, and the Allies were defeated on the whole.
More than 20,000 people rushed to escape, throwing their helmets and armor, and panic.
"Blow the charge horn, the whole army attacked!" Ling Yun saw the appearance of the Taoshan coalition, and knew that the battle had been won. The Longbower made great achievements today, but although the Longbower defeated the fighting spirit of the Taoshan army, the real killing was probably less than two thousand. At this time, the Longbowers had completed the mission. It was the cavalry and infantry's turn to sweep the battlefield and stabilize the results.
The bronze horn sounded again, and Ling Yun led the reserve team to all out, and directly rushed from both wings to the fortifications such as the Haogou in front and rushed towards the enemy on the river bank.
Shan Xiongxin and Qin Shubao heard the sound of horns and had already taken the lead in counterattack and charge. Zhang Cheng wanted to fight again, but there were no soldiers available. Those who had been unable to break through the two wings of the Huaihuang Army saw that the situation was not good at this time, and without waiting for Zhang Cheng's order, they turned around and ran faster than rabbits.
Huang Shitou sat down against a pointed wooden stake, watching Lingyun rush past, followed by hundreds of cavalry in the tent, the sun shone on the tip of the gun, the white tiger flag of Huaihuang Army was flying above his head, and the flags of officers at all levels whistled in the wind. The defeated soldiers in Taoshan completely disintegrated under the thunder of Huaihuang Army, like porcelain hit by a hammer.
The arms under the yellow stone scalp armor were sore and swollen. It was not half an hour since the battle began. He shot nearly two pots of arrows. He still kept the ten armor-breaking arrows, and the other seventy arrows were shot all. He even shot seventy arrows. He thought it was terrible. He didn't know how he did it at that time. Now that he had finished fighting, he looked at the remaining pot of arrows and the ten armor-breaking arrows, and he could only giggle. He actually shot seventy arrows with such skill.
His whole body was already soaked with sweat, but although he was very tired, he was very excited, so excited that he wanted to yell. He did not expect that they would win so quickly, and even win a little relaxed. Five thousand to twenty five thousand, he was so panicked and worried before the battle, and even felt disgusting. He thought he would die here. But in fact, he just shot seventy arrows desperately. From beginning to end, he was not threatened at all. The nearest enemy was fifty steps away from him, and he could barely shoot a few arrows in front of him, but there was no strength at all. He couldn't even hold the mud in the mud. He looked up at his comrades, black fish, big eyes, Zhong Hun, etc., and they were all sitting on the ground like himself, so tired that they were almost exhausted. Everyone's eyes collided, and then they each made bursts of laughter, laughing hysterical.
A long time later, the black fish was the first to speak, "Damn, these thieves are too incompetent. They haven't held on for half an hour. They are still fifty steps away from us, and they are already scared and collapsed and ran away."
"It's not that the thief is too incompetent, it's that we are too powerful." Zhong Laosan grinned and showed his mouth with no front teeth and laughed.
"I shot seventy arrows." Huang Shitou suddenly said.
"I shot sixty arrows." Blackstone followed.
"I cum fifty-seven!"
"I cum sixty-three."
In the end, my guys reported their own numbers and found that the one who shot the most was Huang Shitou. The good guy shot seventy arrows by himself.
Everyone then excitedly discussed how many thieves he shot to death, and Huang Shitou shot the most. He shot five of them by himself, but this did not count the results of the previous shot. At that time, he was not sure whether he shot or not, who shot. After that, he was a flat shot at close range, and he could see his own results.
At this time, Wang Bodang, the commander of the Archer Camp, walked over with his longbow: "Have you had enough rest? If you have enough rest, you still have the strength to get up to clean the battlefield!"
The so-called cleaning of the battlefield is of course mainly to cut people's heads. Longbow soldiers kill the enemy, and it is impossible to cut people's heads in war. However, in this battle, the enemies killed heads are the results of the archers. Now Ling Yun leads his troops to chase the enemy, and the longbows can calmly clean their battlefield and cut their heads. The archers sitting on the ground panting all stood up when they heard this. After fighting for a long time, they counted the results. No matter how tired they were, they would have to get up. Although there was a long-term rule in the army, such as the longbow soldiers' military achievements, mainly collective skills, they were still very happy to be blind.
Huang Shitou carried his longbow and drew his sword and followed Zhong Laosan excitedly, crossed the deer feet of Haogou and began to clean up the spoils. Because Wang Bodou said in advance that the entire Changbow camp had the results of the harvest this time and the longbowmen who participated in the battle, no matter how to compete for the heads. Huang Shitou and his group walked together and approached the battlefield, they saw that it was like a heavy snow on the battlefield, a layer of white was covered with feather arrows, and corpses were everywhere on the ground, and the soil was stained with blood.
Almost 100,000 feather arrows were covered on the battlefield on the entire river bank!
One hundred thousand arrows, this number is extremely scary. In less than half an hour, two-thirds of the entire army's arrows were used up. If you fight for a while, either the longbowmen were exhausted and it was difficult to shoot, or the arrows were used up and there were no arrows to shoot. In fact, if the Taoshan Army could hold on for a while, the most powerful archer unit of the Huaihuang Army would actually have to withdraw from the battle. Unfortunately, there was no if on the battlefield.
Huang Shitou raised his knife and was about to chop off a corpse, but the corpse suddenly moved, which scared Huang Shitou. Although he shot several enemies today, looking at a living enemy at such a close distance still made him feel uncomfortable. "Captain, there is a living here."
Zhong Laosan was covered in blood and carried five newly cut heads with a rope. It was as if an old farmer was carrying a few bags of food. He walked over a few steps and kicked the alive bandit with his feet. He looked at it for a while and shook his head, "I was too hurt, I'll save you. Give him some fun!"
"Captain..." Huang Shitou felt a little reluctant. Zhong Laosan sighed, "Those who can't save him, just let him suffer more life. Cut it, this is the case with the war, there is nothing to be kind, who asked him to come and fight us? Think about it, if we are defeated today, you will be the one lying on the ground." After saying that, Zhong Laosan raised his sword and chopped it hard on the neck of the wounded soldier. He didn't cut it off, and he broke two more. Finally, the body separated. Zhong Laosan directly took the back of the knife and knocked the helmet down, then tied the hair and rope on the head, stringed it together with the original five heads, and carried it on his back again, sighed, and took the knife to chop off a human head.r1152
