Fu Xie stood on the city tower and saw the kingdom's army moving.

Yang Hui pointed to the rebel formation and said, "Sir, it's the battle flag of Wudu. They are moving eastward. He is probably going to support June Thunder."

Fu Xie nodded slightly and asked in confusion: "Li Zhonglang's iron cavalry still hasn't appeared?"

"No." Yang Hui replied, "Zhao Yi and Zhao Army of the East Gate sent people to report, but have not seen Li Zhonglang's Fengyun Iron Cavalry appear on the battlefield of the East Gate. Now, Li Zhonglang's infantry formation is fighting bloody battles with Qiang and Hu cavalry. When the Qiang people started attacking, they were shot fiercely by Li Zhonglang's bow and crossbow camp. The Qiang people were killed and injured. Qiang and Hu were fiercely fierce, and they surrounded the infantry formation like madmen, and the battle was extremely fierce. We only heard that Li Zhonglang's cavalry was powerful, but they did not expect his infantry to be so powerful."

"Li Zhonglang's infantry were all soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army. When I followed General Huangfu to suppress the Yellow Turban Army, although the Yellow Turban Ant Thief did not have any excellent weapons, it had very strong combat power. When he attacked Guangzong, more than 50,000 Yellow Turban Ant Thiefs swear to death and jump into the river to die. You can imagine such people, they were brave and fearless when fighting." Fu Xie stroked his beard and said.

"Why didn't Li Zhonglang's cavalry move?" Yang Hui said strangely, "Although his infantry formed a formation to defend and fought tenaciously, the losses were very large."

"I guess Li Zhonglang wants to use the infantry formation to drag down the Qiang soldiers and consume their troops. When the Qiang and Hu were scarred, the cavalry attacked and gave the Qiang and Hu the last blow, and strived to wipe out the Qiang and Hu. If we destroy these 30,000 Qiang and Hu, our Xiliang border counties can get at least three to five years of peace. At the same time, without the support of Qiang and Hu outside the border, their situation will be very difficult."

He looked at Yang Hui, patted his hunched back, and smiled and said, "If I die, you will follow him. You are talented and cannot be buried like this for the rest of your life. You should find a place to show your ambitions, and it is not in vain for your ability."

"My lord is joking." Yang Hui said solemnly, "In the Battle of Yicheng, the victory and defeat have been reversed because of Nie Xiao's turnaround. Even if Li Zhonglang wins miserably or fails, the rebels will be severely attacked, and they can only withdraw their troops. In this case, Yicheng is already safe, how can the adults die?"

Fu Xie said solemnly: "I may die in the battlefield. I will lead my troops to attack and delay the support of Wudu so that Li Zhonglang can have more time to surround and annihilate the Qiang people."

Yang Hui looked at Fu Xie in surprise and said loudly: "Sir, we have no need for this at all."

Fu Xie nodded firmly and said, "If Wudu meets with Liuyue Jinglei, it will be difficult for Li Zhonglang to encircle and annihilate the Qiang people, and to annihilate the Qiang people. So, I decided to attack."

"Sir, why do you...you do this? We only have more than a thousand people. If you fight out, you will definitely die."

"I should do this in order to kill the Hu people, to be able to annihilate more rebels, and for the peace of Xiliang. Do you let me stand on the city tower and watch the Qiang and Hu show their power and run back to the Daxue Mountain with great swagger?"

"Sir, we are just guessing how Li Zhonglang will fight, and we don't know what his real intention is? Why do you need to make such unnecessary sacrifices?"

"How is this a meaningless sacrifice? This is killing Qiang and Hu, defending the country, and for the peace of the border of the Han Dynasty."

Yang Hui was speechless and stared at him in a daze.

"You and I have been together for many years, and are as close as brothers. If I unfortunately die in battle, I will entrust you to Fu Gan and his mother." Fu Xie patted his shoulder hard and said in a heavy mood: "We must fight this battle, never stop until we die."

"Tell me the order. All the soldiers in the city rushed to the south gate to gather immediately."

"Order the people in the city to immediately move the earth bag under the city gate and open the city gate."

"Beat the drum... gather..."

June Jinglei ordered all units to concentrate their forces and attack the two square formations of Yushi and Yan Liang in the middle of the Han army. As long as they break these two square formations and then the army attacks left and right, they will be able to break the enemy's square formation defense and defeat the Han army.

The sound of the horn sounded everywhere in the battlefield.

The Qiang Hu, with the northwest rain and snow mountain foxes as the main force, attacked the jade square formation, and the Qiang Hu, with the strong wind and sand and the sky wolf as the main force, attacked the Yan Liang square formation. The battle suddenly became fierce.

Three giant shields and giant spears were arranged in a complete manner. After hundreds of rounds of collisions, the damage was severe and there were very few remaining people. Although the soldiers of the crossbow camp in the Han army's brigade shot wildly and killed the enemy in large numbers, the enemy's cavalry was not afraid and the attack remained the same.

The sound of the ox horns sounded one after another, and the Qianghu began a new round of rushing formation. The Qiang people gathered hundreds of war horses, concentrated at several attack points, and continuously hit. The sound of "boom...boom..." was endless, and the huge sound was terrifying.

The square formation led by Jade was first broken through, and more than a dozen giant shields were all broken, and Qiang people flocked in. Jade, Wen Chou, Zhang He, with spear soldiers and swordsman, bravely met with crossbowmen.

Zhang He jumped up and raised his hand and shot a cavalry. Then he was knocked to the ground by a running war horse. Two Qiang people rushed over immediately and drove their horses and trampled on the spear. Zhang He rolled left and right on the ground, in a mess. Several crossbow soldiers rushed up and shot at the Qiang soldiers. One dead and one injured, fell down one after another. Two war horses rushed a few steps before falling to the ground. Zhang He used his hands and feet, got up with gray face, gritted his teeth, and slapped it up, put it on the Qiang soldiers who had just raised their bodies and were about to swing their swords to fight. He drew his sword and chopped off the enemy's head.

Yan Liang in the square formation held a sword in his hand, and faced the enemy who was rushing to the formation, his voice was hoarse. He was tired of killing, and the fierce Qiang people were not afraid of life and death. The repeated collisions caused heavy losses to his subordinates. There was no trace of the giant shield on the front defensive position of the square formation. The fragmented fragments, together with the dead soldiers on both sides, and the wreckage of war horses covered the narrow combat zone. At the sight, they were all covered with bloody corpses and swords, spears and arrows inserted on the corpses. The strong smell of blood stimulated Yan Liang's blood veins.

"Sir, the enemy is rushing in..." the soldiers screamed.

Yan Liang stood with his head raised, full of murderous intent. He looked at the Qiang soldiers who were riding on their horses with disdain on their faces, and yelled with a knife: "Brothers, kill people..."

Yan Liang raised his shield with one hand and the other with the battle knife, and rushed towards the enemy. A group of swords and axes looked angry. They followed Yan Liang, each holding up their weapons, shouting loudly, and their morale was like a rainbow. A group of long arrows crossed over Yan Liang's head, roaring fiercely, and shooting towards the pounced enemy.

The horse arrived and the spear rushed towards him. Yan Liang roared, suddenly bounced up, raised his sword to slash at the enemy's horse's head. The war horse Zhongshen made a painful hiss, and his huge body flew more than ten steps away with inertia. The horse knight was thrown into the air. Before it landed, it was already chopped into several pieces by the battle knife and iron axe.

Yan Liang was running, calling, and killing. He was like an angry tiger, invincible in front of him.

The short halberd of jade quickly passed through the Qiang soldiers' throats, and the enemy's throat broke, and blood suddenly shot out like a fountain. Jade kicked the corpse away, and was about to move in again, but saw more Qiang soldiers waving their weapons and galloping from afar.

"Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet, ask for help, ask for help." Yu Shi's face changed drastically, and he raised his arms and shouted wildly.

"Bow and arrow camp, volley, volley..."

"Retreat, let's retreat." In the distance, Wen Chou fought hard while shouting loudly.

The flying drumsticks hit the war drum like raindrops, with a rapid and wild sound.

When Xian Yufu heard the signal that Jade asked for support, he pointed to the iron axe without hesitation and said loudly: "Bring five hundred people with you and go to support quickly."

Tie Yue was so anxious that he kept cursing, and suddenly heard Xian Yufu's order to fight, and he was so happy that he was full of joy, cheering and running without looking back.

Lei Zi, Wei Zheng and others watched his back disappear on the boiling battlefield with envy.

"Order Xu Rong and Qu Yi to lead the square formation on the left and right wings and advance immediately."

"Beat the drum and tell the soldiers of the army that they will fight to the death and never retreat."

The hundred-faced war drums were beating at the same time, and the fierce and intense drum sound was like hundreds of spring thunders exploding on the bloody battlefield at the same time. In an instant, the earth shook.

Hua Xiong's strong body looked a little tired. He took two steps at once and hurriedly walked up the city tower.

"Sir, do we have to take the initiative?"

Fu Xie nodded, pointed to the moving rebels in the distance, and said, "That is the army of Wudu. They are going to support June Thunder, so we will hit him."

Hua Xiong looked at Fu Xie suspiciously and asked, "Is it useful for us to have such a few people?"

"Li Zhonglang's cavalry has not appeared yet. I guess he will suddenly attack when the Qiang people suffered the most serious losses, surrounded the Qiang people in the East Gate battlefield and completely wiped out." Fu Xie looked at Hua Xiong and said with a smile, "There are more than 10,000 troops in Wudu. If they arrive at the East Gate battlefield, they can not only help the Qiang people to quickly escape from the battlefield, but also block Li Zhonglang's army and destroy Li Zhonglang's encirclement and annihilation strategy. Our attack is to delay the Wudu army from the East Gate battlefield."

Hua Xiong nodded and smiled, "It's better to think carefully." He turned his head and looked at the east side, listened carefully to the shouts of killing coming from the battlefield, shook his head, and said, "Strange, why haven't Li Zhonglang's cavalry appeared yet?"

Fu Xie said: "It is normal for cooperation mistakes to occur on the battlefield, especially the battles that more than 100,000 people participated."

He paused and continued, "Li Zhonglang's courage to fight such a big battle is enough to show his courage and courage. He was neither fully prepared nor confident in this battle. He was fighting with his eyes closed. I even suspected that he had no specific combat methods at all. He had been near the Weishui River and had no contact with the generals of the main army. It is hard to say whether Xian Yufu and Xu Rong could accurately understand his combat intentions. He was young and commanded so many troops alone, and it was a random battle. What can we ask for him? I suspect that even Huangfu Song was here, he would not dare to fight this battle, and only this leopard like an idiot dared to fight."

Hua Xiong said: "He dares to fight such a battle, and it is impossible not to be convinced. I am convinced. No wonder he was a general of the Central Army at a young age, and I am still a military officer."

Fu Xie smiled and said, "Ziwei is also a powerful general in Xiliang, so there is no need to underestimate himself."

Hua Xiong shook his head, pointed to the battlefield west, and said, "I can't do it. In Xiliang, if we talk about war, except General Huangfu Song, it is Han Sui. Han Sui commanded the rebels in Xiliang to fight everywhere, with brilliant achievements. Although he lost to the leopard one after another, there are all internal reasons, not Han Sui's own command error. You see, he was caught off guard by Nie Xiao this time, and tens of thousands of Qiang cavalry in Huangzhong attacked him, but he still resisted it."

Fu Xie smiled and said, "It's not that Han Sui's command is proper, but because Beigong Boyu's subordinates and Han Sui's subordinates are from the same place. They have been fighting together for many years, from the commanders of various tribes to soldiers, some are fellow villagers and some are horse bandits and robbers, and they have some friendships. How could they sacrifice their lives to fight? It's normal for tribal commanders like Nie Xiao and Luotu to turn against Han Sui because of Beigong Boyu's relationship, but their subordinates may not think so. You have been in Jincheng for many years, and you didn't expect this?"

Hua Xiong smiled bitterly and said, "Huangzhong Qiang, Baohan people, Jincheng people. In fact, everyone is a family. They kill each other, which is considered a brother's fight. Han Sui really shouldn't have killed Beigong Boyu. In the future, he will regret it."

Fu Xie sighed: "Wen Yue has gone astray."

A violent war drum sounded suddenly in the city. The army was assembled.

The kingdom pointed at the Wudu army angrily and asked loudly: "Yi'an, why has your army not gathered yet? When do you want to endure?"

Wu Du was determined to retreat, not to fall into this battlefield where both sides were injured, so he was in a mood. He glanced at the kingdom and said with a sad face: "These people were spoiled by leopards in Zixiu Mountain. They had military pay in Zixiu Mountain, had good food and food, and could also find camp prostitutes in the military city. They lived a comfortable life. What about now? Don't say that there is no military pay, even the armor on their bodies was stripped off and distributed to other soldiers of the army. Do you think they have a big opinion? Just slow down if you move slowly, don't anger them. If you turn a few more fights, we will be completely done."

Wang Guo's face turned red with anger, but Wu Du said the truth, and he was unable to refute it and was speechless.

The army of Wudu was basically the Han people recruited by the rebels of Xiliang in Hanyang, Anding and the north. After they were captured, they were recruited by Li Hong as soldiers of the Han army in Zixiu Mountain and were commanded and trained by Xu Rong and Qu Yi. After Geng Bi took charge of the power of Xiliang, he forcibly deprived them of the command and assigned them to the Xiliang governor's mansion, and he was in charge of the command. It was under this situation that Wudu began to command part of the army. He spent a short time with the soldiers of these army and was not familiar with each other.

Wu Du comforted him: "Master, June thunder is more powerful than ghosts. When did he suffer any losses? Don't worry, he won't have any trouble. You should consider considering our retreat as soon as possible."

Huang Yan said very unhappily: "Yi'an, don't be determined to leave and have no desire to fight. The key now is to bring back the army of June thunder as soon as possible, and everyone will increase their strength together. Otherwise, our retreat will be in danger. Go and kill a few soldiers who delayed the military plane to show punishment. I don't understand, why are you the leader of the army, and why are you not at all prestige and no one listens to your words?"

Wu was a little unhappy. Wang Guo immediately scolded him a few more words. Wu Du ran back angrily, killing several slow-moving chiefs and team leaders. Several military waiters, including Jiang Wu, rushed to Wu Du's horse and questioned loudly. Wu Du said hatefully: "If you don't assemble quickly, I will attack you."

The military guards dared not speak out, and turned around and left with hatred.

June Jinglei saw that the Han army's formation suddenly changed, and the huge square formation on both wings began to move forward under the cover of long arrows in the sky.

June thunder felt incredible. Under such fierce confrontation, the two wing troops of the Han army actually gave up the stable defense on the front and changed the formation to advance. Isn’t this seeking death? Once moved, the giant shields and giant spears that the Han army relied on to resist the impact of the cavalry lost their function, and they could only rely on the shooting of bows and arrows and the dense formation to resist the impact of the cavalry army. Although they could advance forward, the price was the huge casualties of the soldiers.

Reva rode on her horse and came.

"Master, the northwest rain, strong wind and sand sent people to us, asking us to increase the number of troops that will hit the front, and they will soon break through the enemy's phalanx."

June thunder did not answer. He stared at the battlefield for a long time, concentrating and contemplating.

"Master General, the two wings of the Han army are moving. This is the best opportunity to attack them. Should we withdraw the troops attacking the middle and attack the two wings of the Han army instead?"

June thunder suddenly woke up.

He thought of the leopard's cavalry. From noon to now, the leopard's cavalry has not appeared on the battlefield. When he just started fighting, he left an army to attack the leopard's cavalry from both wings, but the leopard has not appeared. As he immersed himself in the battlefield, he went crazy and crazy, and even forgot that there was another leopard that did not appear.

The leopard that was devouring to others must be nearby. He had to wait until he was tired and injured, and was dying, and then rushed out and killed with one blow. The infantry of the Han army deliberately showed weakness, with the purpose of entanglement of his cavalry in order to continue fighting and deplete his strength.

June Jinglei looked around nervously and shouted loudly: "Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet, order the departments to retreat immediately, retreat..."

Reva looked at the shocked June Thunder in a daze, confused.

"Send someone to urge Old Man Wang immediately and send someone to support him."

"Master..." Leiva shouted, "Master, we are in full swing. We can defeat the Han army with one more effort. Why are you..."

"Where are the leopard's cavalry? We got into trouble and actually forgot that there was another leopard."

"What does it matter?" Reva said indifferently, "The Leopard's cavalry is here, and we will call him dead."

June Jinglei shook his head and pointed to the battlefield and said, "If the leopard leads the cavalry to come from the southeast, we will be surrounded. Look, we are infantry of the Han army on the east, Yicheng on the west, Weishui River on the north, and Leopards on the south. We are trapped here, and it is hard to fly with wings."
To be continued...
