Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

In the morning of dawn and dingyou, the northern part of Shenzhou is twenty miles away from the Hun River. The expected but unexpected war between the two sides has been going on for three days. The position of the battlefield has been advancing southward, and today's battle The fight lasted from early morning to dusk.

The fire cloud hangs at the end of the sight to the west. In the sky, arrows keep falling in a staggered manner. There are ignited fire arrows nailed to the shield. The black smoke rising from the burning is smelled by the shield hand hiding behind, and he quickly cuts the arrow shaft with a knife. He cut it off and extinguished the ignited flames. When he inadvertently raised his head, cold light shot into his face, and he screamed and fell to the ground dead.

Spots of blood were scattered on the battlefield, some gathered in the depressions to form small pools of blood, and more seeped into the ground to form brown stains. The river in the distance rolled, pushing the floating corpses with the bloody water, and from time to time they rushed to the shore, countless The figures roared and fought along the river and in the wilderness. The shouts and the collision of knives and guns were heard continuously without stopping for a moment.

The spear penetrated his chest. The panting Yelu Zongdian staggered back the spear. The enemy general, spurting blood, fell to the ground. He looked up at the dead mount. He didn't have time to feel distressed. Another Bohai was a few steps away. The general watched his colleague fall to the ground, raised his steel knife and hacked a Liao soldier to death, then roared "Ah--" with his mouth open and rushed over on his horse.

Not far away, Tianshan Yong, who was soaked in blood, noticed this, his pupils shrank sharply, he hung up the fixed-point steel gun, drew out his treasured crossbow, and shot only one arrow. The roar of the war horse stopped suddenly, and the crossbow Yamei entered the neck and emerged from the other side. The figure that had lost the strength to support slowly fell onto the horse, and then was jolted off. The horse dragged the dead body and ran for two steps, and the hanging feet were separated from the stirrups.

Yelu Zongdian watched the horse approaching, his eyes lit up, he used his remaining strength to run along the horse for a few steps, stretched out his hand to grab the saddle, put strength under his feet, jumped up and sat down, tightened the reins, turned around and ran to the rear shouting to kill. The sound shook the heaven and the earth.

This is not where the main force of both sides is located. A small number of cavalry, led by their respective generals, interspersed in the chaotic battlefield to see where the defenses were weak. Then they rushed straight over, and the majestic figures of the horses collided with the momentum of the galloping. In the human body, the soldiers were knocked away and then trampled under their hooves.

The soldiers of the Liao Army or the Bohai Navy who were on guard for a long time came to the rear with spears like a forest to meet the galloping horses. The knights who had just entered the formation had no time to turn around and were directly skewered by the spears, including men and horses. The plasma slid down the gun barrel, and the body that lost strength hit the gunman with inertia. The vomited blood spurted into the air, and the smell of rust became stronger.

The battlefield stretches for dozens of miles. Going south along the wilderness, you can still see the fighting groups. The battlefield has long since lost its array. The soldiers whose bodies were burned by arrows and burned by the flames let out shrill screams. Farther back, two commander's flags, Yelu's and Xiao's, stood on the hill surrounding the Liao banner.

Yelu Dezhong rode his war horse and observed the situation on the battlefield under the protection of his eldest son. At this time, it was no longer the time for the two sides to line up and attack, but whether the soldiers falling into each other's battlefield would cause a collapse on the battlefield or be too sudden. The forward rash advance became a lone force and was destroyed.

Xiao Han's slaves on the side also narrowed their eyes and talked to Zhang Lin under the guard. Occasionally, they had a conversation with Yelv Dezhong. The order soldiers flying around them were passing orders, and the soldiers holding the order flags kept coming. Waving their arms, flags of various colors were hoisted to the wooden poles from time to time, and the reserves began to march in the direction of the order.

The sky was dimming, and amid the roar of footsteps, reserve teams lit torches and entered the battlefield. Some took advantage of the darkness to sneak to the rear of the battlefield, crossing the hills, entering the woods, and running out.

Once there are more than 10,000 people, there are no borders or shores.

There were nearly 60,000 people on the battlefield between the enemy and ourselves. The distance between the battle groups was unimaginable. It seemed to be full of densely packed figures. Fortunately, the side resisting the Liao army's battle flag gradually overwhelmed the opposite side.

Yelu Dezhong walked up and down the hill, staring at the battlefield without leaving it for a moment. After a long time, the royal commander breathed a sigh of relief, took a sip of the water bag handed over by his eldest son, and said, "We have the upper hand for the time being. We should be able to push this group of Bohai people back to the south."

The slave of Xiao Han's family stroked his long beard and looked at the famous general who came from Nanjing: "Uncle Huang is too humble. He has commanded and mobilized all the troops in this battle like an arm. In my opinion, if the high-ranking thieves do not withdraw, today Don’t even think about leaving this place.”

"That's right." Zhang Lin nodded: "The Bohai Pirates are just showing off their bravery for a while. They can fight bloody battles without fear of life and death for a short period of time. But once they get into an unfavorable situation, their true colors will be revealed."

He glanced at Yelu Dezhong and smiled: "Three days have passed now. It's like 'one rush, then fades, and three times it's exhausted'. Once three days have passed, the original shape is revealed." "Haha, Xiao Daru. Zhang Nanfu praised him too much." Yelu Dezhong smiled and said with a relaxed expression: "Gao Yongchang is just a sidekick general. He does not understand the general trend, does not know the dignity of others, and is arrogant. His defeat is inevitable."

The desolate horn blew, the shouts on the battlefield suddenly increased, and the Liao army's battle flags advanced.

On the opposite side of the noisy battlefield, under the banner of Dayuan, Gao Yongchang's face was pale and his head was covered with cold sweat. The cavalry conveying military information ran back and forth from time to time. Most of them said, "The left wing has lost, please ask for reinforcements." "General Wu Shi is injured and is withdrawing from the battlefield." "The right wing is under heavy siege, your Majesty, please send reinforcements quickly for rescue." and other words.

His eyes were staring forward, but his eyes seemed to have lost focus, and he murmured in his mouth: "How could this happen..." His voice was inaudible.

On the side, Ta Buye saw that his emperor was losing his composure, and he quickly took two steps forward to get closer: "Your Majesty, it's getting late now. It's better to withdraw the troops, regroup, and fight another day."

The quiet voice seemed to wake up the Bohai Emperor. He nodded quickly and shouted to the ordering soldiers on the side: "Yes, Ming Jin withdraws the troops! Ming Jin withdraws the troops! In addition, tell the generals of the army to retreat twenty miles to set up camp and fight the Liao bandits again on another day!" "

Immediately he waved his horsewhip and said: "The rear troops come forward to cover the retreat of all the troops on the battlefield. If anyone escapes from the battlefield, we will kill them on the spot without any reward!"

The order was given, the messengers galloped away, the war drums were beating, and with the shocking drumbeats, the three thousand well-dressed cavalry in the rear began to advance, moving slowly and gradually accelerating.

Gao Yongchang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. At this moment, he felt that he was sweating. He couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe his forehead. He lowered his arm and wanted to call the army to retreat. He heard the sound of horse hooves in his ears. He quickly turned around and looked around, carrying the official document. A fast horse came running, and when he got close, he jumped off his horse and knelt down: "Your Majesty, Lu Bu has sent troops to Binzhou. The siege is very urgent at this time. The prefect is afraid that he will lose if he defends for a long time. I hope your majesty will send troops to rescue."

"Hmm..." Gao Yongchang's eyes darkened, and he felt that he couldn't breathe. He closed his eyes and turned over and fell down. Seeing this, Ta Buye quickly took two steps forward and hugged him, so that the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty did not fall. The horse died.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

"Here comes someone! Your Majesty has fainted! Find the doctor quickly!"

"No, my feet stink. I'll wake up if I smell them!"

"Slap, slap your Majesty quickly!"

In the panic, he didn't know who woke up the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. He made a weak voice of "Oh..." and looked at the cronies gathered around him and said tremblingly: "Let's go!"

The handsome flag moved back and left in a hurry. (End of chapter)
