Guide to Traveling through the Northern Song Dynasty.

Chapter 425 0420 [There are also heroic troops? 】

"Your Majesty, going on like this is not an option, the bandit formation is too hard to break through!"

The person who spoke was Gao Huhu, and one-seventh of Zhong Xiang's current territory was captured by him.

Zhong Xiang was also very anxious, but he could still keep calm: "Our army has many generals, if one is unstable, another will respond, and we can fight for a long time. The whole game is broken. If it goes on for a long time, our army will surely win!"

Gao Hu said: "The generals of various ministries sent troops to report, but Little Zhu thief's armored guards have not yet been dispatched, and I don't know from which direction to attack. Brother Ying and I may not be able to rescue in time."

During the negotiations, Zhu Ming's personal guards had appeared before, and the Chu generals were deeply afraid of this, and Zhong Xiang specially prepared a secret weapon.

The troops of Gao Huhu and Yingxuan are Zhong Xiang's cards.

Hundreds of soldiers under Gao Huo's command used long spears, which were thin, long and sharp.It can pierce heavy armor, but fine steel is not easy to come by, only a few hundred have been made, and the rest are blunt weapons with wooden sticks and iron heads.

Yingxuan himself is a hero of Dongting Lake. He conquered two counties by himself and came to join Xiang Zhong's team.They also selected able-bodied men and reorganized them into a division. The whole army used blunt weapons to fight, and was recruited by Prime Minister Zhong to deal with Zhu Ming's personal guards.

There were more than one or two generals who brought funds into the team. For example, Zhang Guangdao was in Hanyang at this time, and the Chu general who confronted him was called Chen Yuxin.After Chen Yuxin captured the two counties, he brought his territory and army to join Xiang Zhong, who had already been conferred the title of King of the County by Zhong Xiang.

"Go around to the rear army of the Zhu thief. The armored soldiers may come out from there, and our army is the weakest there," Zhong Xiang added, and urged, "Go to the Gen and Gan positions of the Zhu thief's large formation and wait for the battle." , if the Zhu thief iron armored soldiers come out from the left and right armies, you can also quickly go to deal with it."

"Yes!"

Gao Huhu and Yingxuan immediately led their troops around to the destination.

The fierce battle continued, and the morale of the Chu army was getting lower and lower.There are constantly reserves, passing through the passages between the various ministries, going to the aid of the crumbling friendly forces.

Gong Bin's arms were sore at the moment, and he stabbed repeatedly mechanically.

He was an old man who followed Zhu Ming to destroy Heifengzhai. He led his troops to attack Dasan Pass but failed, and was ambushed by Wu Jie with more than a thousand casualties.This matter was regarded by him as a great shame and humiliation. After the reorganization, he trained more diligently and accompanied the soldiers to practice to death.

Because they were too elite, they had now turned into a salient, and they rushed out involuntarily. More than a thousand soldiers in front were besieged from three sides.

Yang Qin came to the rescue with his own soldiers, and cooperated with the supervising team to hold it steady, and now he is madly attacking Gong Bin's protruding front.

Yang Yao, who was still young, rushed beside his clan brother Yang Qin, and was cut on the face by the wolf master just as he took part in the battle.Taking advantage of Yang Qin swinging away from the wolf, Yang Yao rushed in short, and was instantly stabbed in the shoulder by a rake, and a bloody gash was wiped on his neck.

Being poked back by the boring palladium, Yang Yao had no choice but to resist the weapon, and the skills he had learned in the past six months could not be used at all.

Yang Qin also complained secretly, they belonged to Zhong Xiang's direct line, the source of soldiers is the best, and the armor is also the best.But when facing the mandarin duck formation, I don't know how to do it at all.

"Dong dong dong dong!"

The drum sounded from behind, and Yang Qin knew that it was the emperor Zhong Xiang who was beating the drum himself to help the battle.

"Long live the master!" Yang Qin yelled fiercely.

"Long live the master!" The soldiers around him shouted.

Yang Qin shouted again: "Ming Zun bless you!"

"Ming Zun bless you!"

"Long live sir!"

"Ming Zun bless you!"

More and more Chu soldiers followed suit, as if some buff had been added, and their blood surged forward crazily.

There were even Chu soldiers who threw away their weapons to catch wolves, regardless of being injured, and covered friendly troops rushing in.

There were constant Chu troops jumping over the two layers of defense of the wolf and the palladium, pushing forward frantically next to each other.The soldiers in the front row were completely involuntary, including Yang Qin and Yang Yao, who were surrounded by fanatical soldiers and moved forward.

The wolf master has completely lost its effect, and the wolf master drew his waist knife and prepared to fight.

The rakes and long spears were still stabbing repeatedly, and the rattan and long-handed players seemed to be facing a big enemy.

Gong Bin shouted: "Blow the horn, stabilize the formation!"

The bugle sounded, followed by the whistle of the squad leaders.

This old man was really unlucky. He was defeated by Wu Jie in the previous surprise attack, and now he met Zhong Xiang's fanatics.

Yang Qin kept spitting blood out of his mouth. He yelled a few times just now to boost morale.But he fought first, was pushed forward by the fanatical soldiers in the rear, and was stabbed four times in a row, one of which was deep in the abdomen.

The enemy's spear was pulled out, and the soldiers behind were still moving forward. Yang Qin was knocked down by his soldiers and trampled to death in front of the battle.

This Chu army has indeed become fearless, but the formation is completely chaotic, and even the death of the main general is not clear, and they only know how to charge forward with their weapons.Their casualty rate has doubled, but they are about to break through the mandarin duck formation, and the wolves and rakes are useless.

Among the infantry, the sword and shield hand is the most difficult to train.

Now relying on the sword and shield to defend, the long card player stopped moving, stuck the giant shield on the ground, and held the position desperately.The rattan player used the round shield to block left and right, and repeatedly swung his knife to cut out.

The spearman behind them, stabbing back and forth.

Gong Bin kept complaining, remembering being surrounded by Wu Jie, he roared angrily: "Juntian, Juntian, wives, children and parents are all watching!"

"Military field! Military field!"

One after another, the soldiers shouted the word Juntian, and the military field they were given was at Jingmen behind.

At least ten acres of military land, as long as the soldiers who participated in the defense of Hanzhong, all those with less than ten acres of rewarded land will make up the ten-acre quota.There are also some sergeants and lieutenants with more than [-] mu, [-] mu, and [-] mu of land.

Although it is all wasteland, the lay people are reclaiming it, and the refugees are also helping to reclaim the wasteland by farming.

They are all good fields, and they can become mature fields in just two or three years!
If they are defeated today and the Chu army takes advantage of the situation to occupy Jingmen, what will happen to their army fields?

The long card player desperately held the huge shield, and the long gunman stabbed wildly.Some rattan players have been injured, but they still stand in the front with injuries.Even the firemen are forward with their swords in hand, ready to fill the void.

Gu San had already led his troops through the passage, the obstacles there were cleared, and another Chu army wanted to enter the passage.

Fifteen hundred heavy infantry in infantry armor lined up in six columns and stood at the entrance of the passage to meet them.

Some were holding spears, some were holding bones.Without defense at all, even if the Chu army attacked the armor, they raised their hands and stabbed out with a spear, and swung their arms and smashed down a bone.

Very slowly, but kept moving forward, the Chu army in front of them was killed and retreated steadily.

After breaking out of the passage, some heavy infantry continued to move forward, and some attacked the enemies on both sides nearby, and cooperated with the friendly forces to attack the Chu army on both sides.

Those Chu troops had been fighting for a long time, and they were already at the end of their strength. Under the attack from both sides, they finally began to collapse.

Gao Huhu and Yingxuan's troops with sharp guns and blunt weapons immediately went to the rescue, and they finally met Xiaozhu thief's armored troops.

However, the Chu army collapsed too quickly!
The first to flee was Chen Ziyi's side. Chen Ziyi led eighty heavy cavalry, led his subordinates and abandoned horses, and rushed out from the passage, while Huarong's musketeers followed closely behind.

The musketeers mingled among the heavily armored soldiers, and after breaking out of the passage, with a whistle, they fired at the Chu army two or three meters away.

The reason why it is so close is that the enemies on both sides rushed to the front!
Originally, the whole body of armor was scary enough, but the volley of muskets in front of him made the Chu army even more frightened.

Before the gunpowder smoke completely dissipated, the lucky one who rushed over and survived turned around and fled as if he had encountered the Dark Lord.

Chen Ziyi led the heavily armored warriors to take the opportunity to advance, while the subordinates protected the firecrackers and reloaded their bombs.

One after another, the mandarin duck squads were liberated because the enemy army was fleeing, and quickly cooperated with the heavy armored soldiers to attack the fighting Chu army horizontally, which quickly caused a chain reaction on the battlefield.

In the end, the heavy infantry and heavy cavalry could not even touch the enemy.

Because they walked too slowly due to the muddy road after they left the camp, and their joint attack speed could not keep up with the Yuanyang team.

In three directions, six Chu troops fled, and the generals in the rear quickly transferred the reserve team up, but the reserve team also suffered the blow of the rout.

Gao Huhu led his troops forward against the rout, no matter the enemy or himself, he would kill if he approached.

Gu San ordered the heavy infantry to turn around and fight, but they were unable to charge and stood by for orders.

Gao Hu took aim at the general flag next to Gu San, and rushed to the nearby area with his bare feet stepping on the muddy water.Both of them are Lianjiazi, but at the moment they don't use any tricks, they just poke their guns at each other quickly.And the target is the opponent's chest and abdomen, not stabbing the throat or the like.

Being shot almost at the same time, Gu San was pierced by the sharp spear and stabbed fiercely in the rib.The slender spear tip pierced Zhajia, and after weakening its strength, it got stuck between two ribs.

Gao Hu was stabbed in the abdomen. The light armor mixed with leather and iron blocked the weapon slightly. The fat layer on the belly was pierced, and it is very likely that his intestines were injured.

The two retracted their guns at the same time, and stabbed fiercely again.

This time Gao Hu was injured insufficiently, unable to pierce through the heavy armor, and was stabbed in the chest by Gu San.

Gao Hu's mixed army of sharp weapons and blunt weapons cannot deal with heavy infantry at all, unless they are also equipped with heavy armor.

Shi Biao's side is similar, but his martial arts is obviously not as good as Yingxuan.

Yingxuan is the most famous hero in the Dongting Lake area, and fighting on flat ground is not his home field. He can walk on flat ground on a boat in rough wind and waves.

This person stepped on the muddy ground with bare feet, ran and charged on tiptoes, and seemed to be completely unaffected by the terrain.

Shi Biao fought only with brute force, and received several sticks on his shoulders and arms.The long stick with the iron head hammered the skin under the heavy armor into bruises, and it was already difficult for Shi Biao to exert strength in his left arm.

But after all, this is a battle, not a fight in the rivers and lakes.

Shi Biao cooperated with the soldiers under his command and stabbed Zhongying Xuan twice in succession.

Although Yingxuan is brave, not all of his subordinates are like this.Moreover, many of them were from rangers. They didn't like to form formations, even if they formed formations, they quickly scattered. They seemed to prefer to kill the enemy with their own bravery.

3000 heavy infantry lined up to meet the enemy, and more than 3 Yingxuan fought with blunt weapons.At the beginning, the heavy infantry could be beaten to bruises, and even vomited blood, but after only two or three minutes, these gangsters with scattered formations were used by the heavy infantry to fight back together.

It's a pity that the heavy infantry couldn't pursue, and the rangers withdrew the wounded Yingxuan.

At this time, nine Chu troops had already fled, smashing several reserve troops to pieces. Zhong Xiang hurriedly brought his soldiers to join the battle.

But it seemed that it was too late. The Chu army collapsed at a speed far faster than Zhong Xiang's rescue.
