Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 138 Offense and Defense
In the battlefield where soldiers fight, where corpses are erected, if you must die, you will live, and if you are lucky, you will die.A good general is like sitting in a leaky boat, lying under a burning house, so that the wise are too late to plan, the brave are too late to be angry, and they are vulnerable to the enemy.

Wei Liao is actually an admirer of Wu Qi, and his book "Wei Liao Zi" draws heavily on Wu Qi's theory of military art.

On the battlefield, those who have the will to die often will not die.

Marching and fighting is like sitting in a leaky boat, under the burning house, who is decisive and ruthless!
Both Pu Hong and Yao Yizhong cherished their subordinates and were unwilling to risk their lives, so they couldn't rush forward.

This also has a lot to do with the underpopulation of Qiangdi.

It's not that they are timid, but that every death of a core member is a big blow to their group.

Both of them are famous for their righteousness and love for their subordinates. Shi Hu abused the people with tyranny. Both of them have advised Shi Hu to treat the people kindly.

Now, Pu Hong and Yao Yizhong dare not risk their lives, but Ran Min dares!
The spring breeze came from the east, so gentle and gentle, but it could not eliminate the blood and cruelty of the battlefield.

If Li Yue fought this battle alone, he would never choose to attack directly.

Although the thieves have a good location, they have a fatal weakness. The mound lacks water, and they only need to besieged for a few days, and Liang Du will repeat Ma Di's defeat at Jieting.

It's just that the battlefield will not give Li Yue so much time.

"This battle must go forward without hesitation. If you die, you will die before you all!" Ran Min raised his arms and shouted.

The morale of the surrounding cavalry was greatly boosted.

As a fierce general who charged into battle, Ran Min was perfect and impeccable, and a few words inspired people's hearts.

Zhu Longma leaped forward like a burning flame.

When Ran Min came out on horseback, his momentum was obviously different from that of Yao Yizhong's Qiang cavalry
The horseshoes were like thunder, and the eyes of more than half of the people on the battlefield turned around.

Ran Min rushed forward without hesitation, followed by a dozen riders holding shields.

People on the low hill kept shooting feather arrows, but they couldn't hurt Ran Min. Occasionally, a few arrows were shot directly, or he dodged his head, or was bounced off by the armor on his body.

Like his master, Zhu Longma has also experienced countless bloody battles, and he already knows how to survive on the battlefield. When running, he swung left and right, avoiding five or six feathered arrows that were shot at him.

This also allows the soldiers behind to catch up with its footsteps.

Heiyun Xiaoqi kept a distance of seven or eight steps from each other, even if they were shot, it would not affect the robe behind them.

Although the defensive power of leather armor is not as good as that of iron armor, it can at least slightly withstand arrows.

Many people had one or two arrows stuck in their bodies, but they continued to charge like nothing happened.

Li Yue thought about the conditions in the future, and he must create a real armored cavalry.

At this time, if there is a well-equipped cavalry with strong morale, what is Liang Du's small mound?
Just as he was thinking about it, Ran Min's fast horse rushed up the low hill, turning into a ball of flames. In an instant, the blood light shot up to the sky, and the northwest side of the low hill seemed to be ignited.

People are flying on their backs.

The two long soldiers in their hands swung like flying, and several axemen came to intercept them. The horses missed, one person's head was cut off by the long halberd, and the other person's chest was pierced by two spears. The person takes two or three breaths in mid-air, and then flings to the ground.

The ax wielder, including his armor and armor, weighed no more than two hundred catties. Although he was provoked by Zhu Longma's momentum, Ran Min's physical strength was quite astonishing.

Li Yue could barely do it with both hands, but it would never be as easy as him. After killing one person, he swung his long halberd and sent two soldiers flying.

The other cavalry then rushed up the gap.

What Yao Yizhong and Pu Hong failed to do, Ran Min did it effortlessly...

But hitting the low hill doesn't mean you've won.

Gao Li's guards counterattacked frantically, they couldn't do anything to Ran Min, but they were able to cause heavy damage to the other cavalry.

The big ax slashed at the oncoming cavalry, and the body was pierced by the spear, but the cavalry was also severely injured, half of the horse's head and the cavalry's chest were split open, and the broken ribs were exposed...

Liang Du chose this place as the final battlefield after careful consideration.

The low hill is not flat, the heights are scattered, and it is very narrow. The horse sprained its hooves accidentally, the cavalry fell off the horse, and was divided into corpses by four or five big axes...

And the cavalry crowded each other and rolled down the mound.

Ran Min's servants were running low.

The guards of Gaoli laughed loudly, "This enemy is the place where you will be buried!"

However, Zhu Longma of Ran Min was unable to gallop due to the ruggedness of the low hill, and instead became a burden, being besieged by four or five generals Gao Li, roaring again and again.

"Get off the horse!" Li Yue made a prompt decision.

A war horse has no speed and will only become a target for the enemy.

The Heiyun army mounted their horses as cavalry and dismounted as infantry. They fought tigers and wolves on the mountain like walking on flat ground. Naturally, this small mound could not do anything to them.

After dismounting, Xu Cheng and Wei Shan were in front. Gu Duo and Hammer had obvious disadvantages against the big axe. Fortunately, Xu Cheng responded in time and organized more than 30 soldiers with maces to lead the way.

The others followed up with crossbows.

There was a burst of sparks, and there was a tinkling, bang, bang, bang.

Although the crossbow arrows are sharp, the bandits are all wearing heavy armor. Even if they are hit by an arrow, they will not die for a moment.

People kept falling on both sides.

When meeting on a narrow road, the brave wins, and the Gaoli guards are not afraid of life and death, but the Heiyun army is not a coward.

Carrying a mace and a big axe battle with Gao Li's guards.

Without any extra action, smash!
Smash it down with a stick, no matter if the ground is a big axe, iron armor, shield, or a person...

The two armies were strangling on this small low hill.

At this moment, Li Yue felt that he had returned to the open space in the south of Heiyun Mountain.

At that time, the Gaoli Imperial Guards were arrogant and arrogant, and the Heiyun Army suffered a lot, and with the help of the harmony of nature and people, they barely repelled them.

But now, the offense and defense are different, Heiyun's army is attacking, and Gao Lijin's guards are defending, just like the reincarnation of fate...

On the east of the low hill, Pu Hong, Pu Jian, Pu Xiong and his son are watching the tragic fight above, their expressions constantly changing.

The loud smashing sound passed through the battlefield and clearly entered their ears.

"I never thought that Ran Min would be so brave!" Pu Jian muttered to himself.

"Looking at the attire, it seems that they are not from Li Nong's tribe?" Pu Xiong was as careful as a hair, and saw a slight difference.

He was promoted to General Jie Zhao Longxiang because of his military exploits, and he knew Zhao Jun well.

"It's not Ran Min, who is it?" Pu Jian really couldn't think that Li Nong's men could be so strong...

At the same time, on the northeast side of the low hill, Yao Yizhong's expression became more complicated. With his personality, if he was a mediocre person, he would not even raise his eyelids, and he had also contradicted Shi Hu face to face.

"Lu Min! Ran Min!" Yao Yizhong murmured softly.

There is no doubt that this battle made Ran Min famous and famous.

He turned his head and glanced at his sons.

Yao Xiang knew what his father was thinking just by looking at him, "In the land of hundreds of battles in the Central Plains, there is Pu Hong in the front, and Ran Min in the back. The people of Yan are watching tigers in the north, and the people of Jin are watching in the south. It is better to seek Guanzhong and stay away from the right and wrong of the Central Plains. A few years later, the national power will be strong, and it will be able to sweep the Guandong again, just like the Great Qin swept the Six Kingdoms back then!"

"Even if we want to conquer Guanzhong, we need to behead Liang Du first, select a thousand elites, and go up to fight with Lao Qiang!" Yao Yizhong's eyes were fierce.
