297 The Road to the South (12)

As the saying goes: A woman is to please her, and a man is to be a friend who dies.

Guang Zituo was ordered to command the cavalry of the Great Zhou army alone, and was a little proud and grateful to Hou Dayong for his knowing experience. He kept in mind Hou Dayong's order: when the battlefield situation became stalemate, he attacked the enemy's chief general with all his strength.

It was precisely because of this order that Guang Zituo resisted the idea of ​​leading his troops to rush to kill several times and ordered the scouts to stare at the battlefield from a distance. Most of the troops hid in a small hill a mile away from the battlefield. Listening to the faint shouting of killing in the distance, Guang Zituo was just like those generals with tens of thousands of soldiers, pretending to be asleep, using the posture of pretending to be sleeping, showing the style of a general who was thousands of miles away.

The war drum in the distance suddenly sounded, and the light purple camel sensitively captured the sound. He had heard the signal of a decisive battle from the sound of the war drum that was deafening, and his eyes opened suddenly. As expected, after a while, two scouts appeared in front of him.

Guang Zitu ordered: "Go."

Four thousand cavalrymen came out of the hidden ravine. They did not attack with all their might, but just advanced towards the battlefield at a constant speed. When the battlefield that was in chaos appeared in Guang Zitu's eyes, he was like a tiger smelling a fishy smell. He didn't care about the handsome man's charm, and raised his spear and shouted: "My sons, charge with me."

The cavalrymen were getting faster and faster. They rushed towards the place where the flags were densest and the drums were sounding loud. Needless to say, this place was where the enemy's head was.

Although Li Yun had 40,000 troops and had an advantage in numbers, he was only at this time that the main troops were all involved in the decisive battle with the Great Zhou army. He could not recall any troops, but instead formed a local disadvantage. The only 1,000 light cavalry in his hand was difficult to fight against the thousands of aggressive Zhou cavalry. But there was no other way at this time. He could only fight and retreat and delay time as much as possible, and perhaps he could wait for the final victory.

Two cavalrymen were chasing the outside of the infantry battle group. The Iron Duwei Light Cavalry was well trained, and most of the war horses came from the Khitan. They neither wanted to be too far from the battlefield nor wanted to fight with the advantageous Great Zhou cavalry. They turned around the battlefield.

At the beginning, Guang Zituo had a large army together. After chasing for a while, he became a little furious and continued to increase his horse speed. He gradually jumped out of the large army. He led dozens of cavalry to get closer and closer to the Iron Du Guard cavalry. Guang Zituo took down the bow and arrow and fired several arrows in succession. He shot several riders off the horse. The Iron Du Guard cavalry was not showing weakness, and turned around to shoot arrows.

A commander of the Iron Dugu Guard saw a small team of Zhou Jun biting the team tightly, just the flies behind the cow's butt, and he hated them very much. He shouted a few words, and more than a hundred Iron Dugu Guard cavalry suddenly turned to the side and left the large team. Soon, more than a hundred Iron Dugu Guard cavalry rushed towards Guangzituo from the flank.

Guang Zitu was entangled by this group of people and had to be forced to fight. He quickly took off his spear and knocked three Iron Du Guard riders down one after another. The commander of the Iron Du Guard saw that Guang Zitu rushed over with a mace and smashed it at Guang Zitu's horse's head. Guang Zitu didn't care about the mace at all. The tip of the spear was like lightning, piercing the enemy's throat. The spear was faster than the mace, and it came first, and the enemy general had to return it.

The two of them fought several moves on the horse. Guang Zituo's spear was quick. The enemy general who used the mace had a lot of strength but had nowhere to use it. He was forced to be in a hurry by the fast spear. The commander of the Iron Du Guard saw that General Zhou was harmed and could not win. Most of the cavalry of the Zhou army rushed over and wanted to retreat again. When Guang Zituo raised his gun and stabbed him again, he used the mace to drive the spear. At the same time, he gathered all his strength and smashed the mace to the face of Guang Zituo.

Those who are good at using maces are all powerful people as powerful as ox. Although Guang Zituo is brave, he dare not take the baton head-on. The commander of the Iron Dugu Guard took advantage of Guang Zituo's dodging and shouted, "Retreat." He ran away after shouting. Guang Zituo had not encountered such a powerful opponent for a long time. He was in a deep battle, so the opponent could escape and follow him desperately.

Suddenly, an Iron Dugu Guard rider rushed over from the side of Guang Zitu. He was covered in blood and was seriously injured, but he was not weak. Seeing an enemy cavalry blocking the road, he rushed towards the enemy cavalry regardless of his fate. Guang Zitu had to twist his body and seal the enemy cavalry with a spear. Unexpectedly, the Iron Dugu guard rider did not dodge and hit him straight. Guang Zitu's spear penetrated hard into the chest of the land. However, the spear in the rider also stabbed a hole in Guang Zitu's abdomen. Although it was not very deep, it was as long as the arm, and blood soon flowed on the war horse.

Guang Zituo didn't care about the injuries in his abdomen. He watched the enemy general who had mace ran away and cursed fiercely. He quickly took the bow and arrow and shot it at the back of the enemy general. This arrow was originally Guang Zituo's anger. He didn't know that he had the intention to plant flowers but would not bloom, and would not be planted in willows and willows to form shade. This arrow was extremely magical. He hit the enemy general's back. After the enemy general was shot, he still lay tightly on the horse's back, but the mace fell off the horse, which seemed to be extremely injured.

Guang Zitu himself did not expect to hit the enemy generals at such a long distance. He half opened his mouth and laughed, "Ha, ha" before the laughter fell, and only heard the sound of war drums and dull horse hooves in the direction of Zhangshui River.

Guang Zituo was shocked. He knew that the main force of the Great Zhou army was all out, and the cavalry troops he led were the last reserve team. At this time, the people who appeared on the bank of the Zhang River were definitely not the Great Zhou army. The Northern Han army had crossed the Zhang River water, so there was only one possibility. The Northern Han army, which had disappeared for a long time, suddenly crossed the Zhang River water at the critical moment of the decisive battle.

Thinking of this, a wave of cold sweat gushed out from Guang Zi's hunchback, and even the pain in his abdomen could not feel the severe pain. He immediately gave up his pursuit of Li Yun and brought 4,000 cavalry back to the Dazhou infantry. Seeing the reinforcements arrived, Li Yun knew that this decisive victory was in his arms, and did not turn around to chase the Dazhou cavalry. After gathering the cavalry, he watched the battle from the side.

After fierce confrontation, the front army of the Great Zhou infantry, the central army and the left wing troops had evolved into a large circular formation. There were nearly 20,000 troops in the circular formation, and more than 5,000 troops had turned into corpses or seriously injured people who were moaning and waiting for death. The Iron Duwei infantry and the Luzhou united troops were all defeated several times and were completely driven out of the periphery of the circular formation.

The heavy cavalry was even more injured under the special care of crossbow arrows, and was unable to make a powerful breakthrough in this large circular formation.

Hou Dayong in the battle formation had shot dozens of arrows, and only a few lonely eagle-feathered arrows were left. The personal guards behind him were all selected from the Black Eagle Army. Like Hou Dayong, they almost shot the archer blankly. Fortunately, there were many soldiers who died in the round formation, and these soldiers also brought many arrow branches. When the personal guards had all replenished the arrow box, the sound of low horse hooves, high-pitched drums and intense shouts of killing sounds were heard in the direction of the Zhang River.

The soldiers of the Great Round Formation were confident in dealing with the siege of the Iron Du Guard, but when they heard the momentum of the enemy reinforcements, they all changed color.

Hou Dayong lowered the long bow raised, looked up at the direction of the Zhang River, and thought to himself: "The Northern Han Army has also arrived, and the good show has finally started."

Although the good show is about to begin, whether the temporary local troops of the Great Zhou Dynasty can withstand the joint attack of the Northern Han army and the Iron Du Guard is the key to whether the good show can be carried out. Several loudly urging soldiers around Hou Dayong rode their horses to commanders everywhere in the Yuanjiang General shouted loudly: "Reinforcements will arrive, defend and wait for reinforcements, and those who retreat will be killed."

Guang Zituo rushed towards the direction of the Zhang River with his cavalry and soon collided with the enemy's cavalry. These enemies were the Northern Han cavalry led by Liu Jiye, and the Northern Han infantry did not stop. They bypassed the cavalry in the melee and rushed towards the infantry group.

Guang Zituo had 4,000 cavalrymen and 6,000 cavalrymen in the Northern Han cavalry. In terms of number, there was no absolute disadvantage. However, the Northern Han cavalry had been fighting against Khitan cavalry for many years, and was good at siege cities and field battles. At this time, the cavalry battle was their best.

The battlefield formed by more than 10,000 cavalrymen is much more magnificent than the battlefield of the infantry. There are swords and arrows everywhere, broken arms and limbs everywhere, and the dust caused by the galloping of war horses is even more damaging.

Guang Zitu was a master of gun use. He soon discovered that all the experts in the Northern Han cavalry were good at using guns. In hand-to-hand combat, the Northern Han army had a clear advantage. The Great Zhou soldiers were stabbed and fell off the horse, which was more harmful than the Northern Han cavalry. Guang Zitu assassinated two Northern Han riders in succession, but his thigh was also pierced with a blood hole by the Northern Han rider who was shot. He was injured one after another, which stimulated Guang Zitu's ferociousness. He rushed left and right in the formation and stabbed several soldiers under the horse.

When he was red-eyed, the Northern Han cavalry rushed over a white horse. The man on the horse was a black-robed and black-armored rider. He came to Guang Zitu and stabbed his spear and headed straight to Guang Zitu's chest. Guang Zitu flipped his wrist and wanted to open it in the future. Unexpectedly, when his spear touched the opponent's spear, he felt that the opponent's spear was as stable as Mount Tai and could not open it at all. Seeing that the opponent's spear was stabbed quickly, Guang Zitu screamed in secret. He turned sideways to the left of the war horse, and hung it on the horse with the power of his legs, and barely avoided this fatal shot.

The black-robed general saw that his opponent actually avoided the shot he was determined to win, and praised: "It's good at it."

Guang Zitu rolled over the horse and couldn't help but look up at the black-robed general. He was not willing to give in. When the two horses intersected, he stabbed the abdomen of the future general with all his might. Guang Zitu's gun was extremely fast and had the ruthless force to rescue the enemy. When the black-robed general was about to raise the gun, Guang Zitu's spear suddenly changed direction, and stabbed towards the black-robed general's face like a poisonous snake suddenly. This move was a killer move that Guang Zitu had tried and used very skillfully.

The black robe general did not move any more. The spear was placed under the gun rod of Guang Zitu. All the exquisite tricks of Guang Zitu were oppressed under the power of Mount Tai and could no longer be used.

Guang Zitu fought against it with all his might, but the force suddenly disappeared. The spear couldn't help but lifted up, revealing a large empty door. The black robe turned the spear like thunder and lightning, and reached Guang Zitu's throat.

Guang Zituo reacted extremely quickly and lay on his back on the horse's back. When blood appeared, Guang Zituo's chin had been shattered by the tip of the gun.
