Chapter 195 0192 [End]

The moment he saw the heavy armored cavalry, Zhang Wanxian knew that he had fallen into a trap.

No wonder the armed guards dared to take the initiative to send troops to attack them.

So, without any hesitation, he turned around and ran.

On flat and open plains, heavy armored cavalry are invincible.

Not even the Western Army can stop them, let alone them?
Don't look at the number of soldiers under his command. In front of the heavily armored cavalry, they are no different than cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

He had only one way out at the moment, which was to immediately retreat to Wudaoling and rely on the rugged mountain roads of Wudaoling to restrict the heavy armored cavalry.

Moreover, he had ambushed three thousand soldiers in the mountains in advance.

If the heavily armored cavalry dares to pursue them, the outcome is uncertain.

Watching Zhang Wanxian turn around and run away from a distance, a trace of surprise flashed in Liu Qi's eyes: "He is quite quick-witted!"

They would definitely not be able to catch up. Although Zhang Wanxian was not good at riding, the weight on his horse was much lighter than theirs.

We can only place our hope on Nie Dong.

Thinking of this, Liu Qi ignored Zhang Wanxian and led the heavy armored cavalry to penetrate the military formation of Gan Chi Army, then turned his horse's head and rushed into the formation again.

"Kill!!!"

When the officers and soldiers saw how brave the heavy armored cavalry were, they were immediately inspired and fought back bravely, as if they had been given blood.

But Gan Chijun had been frightened out of his wits for a long time. In addition, the coach was dying and running away, and he had completely lost his will to fight.

At this time, the effect of the Wild Goose Feather Formation began to appear.

The two wings spread out, one on the left and the other on the right. By the time the Ganchi Army wanted to break up and escape, the Wuwei Army had already formed an encirclement.

More than [-] heavily armored cavalrymen rushed left and right in the dare-chi army formation as if they were in a deserted area.

Liu Qi didn't know how many people he had killed. The heavy armor on his body and the war horse underneath him were completely stained red with blood.

Feeling that the speed of the war horse began to slow down, Liu Qi knew that the war horse was almost reaching its limit.

At this point, the victory was decided.

He wanted to deal with this side as soon as possible, and then cooperate with Nie Dong to attack from both front and back.

After all, Nie Dong only has a thousand men. Although the Qingzhou Army is powerful, it is hard to say whether a trapped beast will fight to the death in a desperate situation.

This is how people are, in desperate situations where death is inevitable, they can often burst out with amazing momentum and fighting power.

Therefore, Liu Qi raised his spear high and shouted: "Dare Chi is defeated, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

"Danzhi has been defeated, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

"Danzhi has been defeated, and those who surrender will not be killed!"

First, the cavalry behind them shouted, and then all the armed guards shouted at the top of their lungs.

Hearing this, many of the daredevils threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground without any hesitation.

You may not necessarily die if you surrender, but if you don't surrender, you will definitely die.

For a time, a large number of people knelt down on the battlefield.

Seeing that there were still some daredevils standing there with weapons in hand, Liu Qi said in a serious tone: "Those who refuse to surrender will be killed!"

The next moment, the armed guards pulled the triggers of their powerful crossbows one after another.

Whoosh!
The sound of tearing cloth was heard.

After a dense rain of arrows, no one dared to stand on the battlefield anymore.

Liu Qi shouted: "Li Shoucheng!"

"The end is here!"

Li Shoucheng suddenly became excited and hurriedly answered with cupped fists.

Liu Qi ordered: "I now order you to collect your weapons and guard the prisoners of war where they are."

This man is also the Du Yuhou in the Wuwei Army, but he is not even as good as Huang Kai.

Although Huang Kai is stupid, he is brave and courageous.

But such a small thing as looking after prisoners of war is still no problem.

"The last general takes orders!"

After Li Shoucheng agreed, he immediately ordered his soldiers to collect weapons.

Liu Qi returned to the central army with his heavy armored cavalry.

Liu Qi didn't waste any time. He turned over and dismounted and said, "Change your horse and take off your armor!"

The cavalry dismounted silently and took off their heavy armor.

After abandoning their spears and taking their bows and arrows, Liu Qi and others mounted another war horse.

In less than a cup of tea, more than five hundred heavy armored cavalry were transformed into light cavalry.

Although protection and attack are abandoned, mobility is greatly improved.

And without such a high load, the war horse will last longer.

Holding the reins with one hand, Liu Qi raised the big bow with the other hand: "Destroy the enemy!"

"Break the enemy!"

All the cavalrymen shouted in unison, and immediately led by Liu Qi, they headed straight for Wudaoling.

……

……

Two miles away, Zhang Wanxian could see the voices of the Wuwei Army urging them to surrender, which shocked him.

1000 people were defeated so quickly!

Frightened, he couldn't help but raise his whip and hit the horse hard.

Seeing that he was about to enter Wudaoling, Zhang Wanxian suddenly thought of something.

Now that the Wuwei Army has prepared heavy cavalry, will there be other strategies?

He is somewhat quick-witted, otherwise it would not have been possible for him to become big in a short period of time and attract more than [-] people.

Thinking of this, Zhang Wanxian couldn't help but slow down his horse and looked back.

Fortunately, all [-] of his subordinates are still there.

He breathed a sigh of relief and ordered a close aide behind him: "You lead one...2000 people into Wudaoling and ambush in the mountain."

Hearing this, the confidant asked doubtfully: "Immortal, hasn't Tuoshan already arranged an ambush?"

Zhang Wanxian scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, just go as you are told."

"Order!"

The cronies responded and led 2000 people into Wudaoling along the official road.

There were six hundred soldiers crouching in the bushes on both sides of the official road.

These soldiers exuded the smell of blood and evil spirits. They had obviously just experienced a big battle.

Suddenly, bursts of chaotic footsteps came into my ears.

Nie Dong looked stern and narrowed his eyes slightly.

coming!

The soldiers held the weapons in their hands tightly, and the muscles in their bodies were tense, like hunting beasts, ready to pounce at any time.

After waiting for a moment, Gan Chijun's figure appeared in view.

Nie Dong lowered his voice and asked, "Have you seen Zhang Wanxian?"

I have never seen Zhang Wanxian, but the military scouts have.

Hearing this, Luo Jing shook his head.

Nie Dong had no choice but to suppress his thoughts and continue to wait.

On the other side, Xiao Wu lay quietly in the bushes, staring unblinkingly at the Gan Chijun below.

The soldier on the side whispered: "Batalion Commander, when should we take action?"

"No rush, wait for Nie Dutong's signal."

Xiao Wu shook his head.

However, as more and more Gan Chi troops poured in, Luo Jing never saw Zhang Wanxian.

At this time, a long queue of thousands of people poured into Wudaoling.

Luo Jing couldn't help but said: "Du Tong, I still haven't seen Zhang Wanxian in my humble position."

Nie Dong knew that he could not wait any longer, otherwise they would be the ones to be attacked from both sides if they allowed the Ganchi Army to pour in like this.

Thinking of this, he shouted: "Destroy the enemy, kill!"

"kill!"

Six hundred Qingzhou troops exploded instantly and rushed down the mountain.

Hearing the cry of killing, Xiao Wu and others, who had been waiting for a long time, also launched a charge together.

"No, there is an ambush!"

The henchman leading the team was startled and shouted.

They had already suffered a defeat, which made the morale of these brave soldiers low. Now they were ambushed again, and they suddenly became a mess. They tried desperately to run out, but the official road was narrow, and the road behind them was blocked by their own people. .

Suddenly, a stampede occurred.

The confidant was sitting upright on the horse. In the panic, he was hit by someone and fell off the horse.

Before he could get up, countless pairs of big feet stepped on him.

On the other hand, the Qingzhou Army still maintained its formation when charging into the battle, using a team of 12 people as a unit to cooperate and cover each other.

In an instant, hundreds of Daang Chi soldiers were killed by swords and guns.

"hiss!"

Hearing the shouts of killing coming from Wudaoling, Zhang Wanxian took a breath, feeling frightened and frightened in his heart.

The officers and soldiers really had an ambush!
At the same time, the sound of horse hooves came from behind.

Turning around, they saw a group of cavalry running towards them.

Under the crisis of life and death, Zhang Wanxian thought for a moment and then made a decision. He raised his arms and shouted: "Sons, follow me!"

After that, he turned the direction of his war horse, regardless of the two thousand Ganchi troops still in Wudaoling, and led the remaining five thousand soldiers to withdraw towards Mushui.

Changle!

The fact that the officers and soldiers were able to cut off their escape means that Shouguang County, their home base, has most likely been captured.

If you want to survive, the only solution for now is to go to Changle.

There are also [-] Ganchi troops stationed there.

Since the city is high and the pond is thick, the officers and soldiers can do nothing to stop him. We will look at the situation at that time to see if he can be recruited or not.

However, the cavalry was faster than he expected.

The sound of horse hoofbeats in his ears became louder and louder, and Zhang Wanxian exclaimed: "How come it's so fast?"

He turned his head again, and when he saw the cavalry's attire clearly, he couldn't help but feel happy.

Hussar?
Those cavalrymen didn't even have leather armor, let alone iron armor.No need for a powerful crossbow, ordinary bows and arrows can kill them.

Zhang Wanxian immediately shouted at the top of his lungs: "Meet the enemy, meet the enemy, archers are ready, fire arrows!"

……

Liu Qi couldn't help but sneered when he saw Gan Chijun stop and assume a posture to meet the enemy.

Heavy cavalry has the tactics of heavy cavalry, and light cavalry has the tactics of light cavalry.

Whose light cavalry foolishly charged into battle?
More than five hundred cavalrymen galloped wildly, assuming a charging posture.

When they were less than a hundred meters in front of the formation, several shouts suddenly sounded from the Ganchi army: "Fire arrows!"

Whoosh whoosh!
A dense rain of arrows was thrown towards the cavalry.

However, Liu Qi was well prepared and suddenly turned his horse's head and ran towards the flank of Gan Chi's army.

The bows and arrows originally shot at them all missed and fell on the ground.

I saw him holding the horse's belly between his legs, and drawing the bow and arrow with both hands.

The three-stone hard bow was instantly stretched into a full moon, and the bowstring was stretched to its limit.

No need to aim, just shoot an arrow in the direction of the daredevil army.

The black rain of arrows fell on the Gan Chi army, and there were bursts of shrill wails.

After shooting an arrow, Liu Qi didn't give his opponent a chance to fight back, and controlled his horse to distance himself again.

This is the kiting tactic of the light cavalry, which uses high mobility to continuously harass the enemy.

Don't think that a hail of arrows can only kill dozens of people, so it's of little use.

Add up.

Moreover, this tactic can cause a psychological blow to the enemy.

An ordinary army, if harassed continuously like this for a period of time, will become impatient and their position will be in chaos.

Once the formation was disrupted, the light cavalry could take advantage of the situation and launch a charge.

Formation is the only means for infantry to fight against cavalry.

A man cannot outrun a horse, let alone endurance. Only by hugging a ball and uniting together can we fight against it.

Once the formation is messed up, the infantry are like lambs to be slaughtered in the eyes of the cavalry.

Under the leadership of Liu Qi, more than [-] cavalrymen used their flexibility to attack points. They attacked the flanks at one moment and charged directly at the center of the army at another.

More than [-] dare-chi soldiers were being tricked around, and every time the cavalry fired, dozens or hundreds of dare-chi soldiers would lose their lives.

Zhang Wanxian was riding on the horse with his fists clenched and his face ashen.

It is no exaggeration to say that this battle was defeated by the cavalry in front of them.

And looking at the entire Song Dynasty, where can such an elite cavalry exist?

"Western Army!"

Zhang Wanxian's eyes were filled with hatred, and he spat out these two words through gritted teeth.

The confidants on the side were already scared out of their wits and couldn't help but said: "Immortal, why don't you surrender..."

Before he finished speaking, a cold light flashed through.

Then, a human head fell to the ground.

Zhang Wanxian shook off the blood on his body, his eyes boiling with murderous intent.

drop?
If he surrendered at this time, he would definitely not be able to escape death.

As long as he persists until Changle, he will have the capital to surrender. Not only will he be able to survive, he may even be able to become a fifth-grade official!
"Boys, get out!"

Zhang Wanxian had made up his mind at this moment and would no longer deal with this group of cavalry. He just wanted to escape.

As for his soldiers, if they die, they die.

How many arrows can these cavalry have? How can they kill more than 5000 people with two quivers?

In fact, Zhang Wanxian's decision was right.

Liu Qi and others really didn't have many arrows. Each of them only brought a quiver with a total of 25 arrows.

However, what Zhang Wanxian didn't know was that Liu Qi had no intention of using his more than [-] cavalry to kill him forcefully.

It is not easy to train a cavalry, especially a heavy armored cavalry. It costs dozens of times more money than an infantry.

These cavalrymen are all the treasures of the county magistrate.

It was just to kill Zhang Wanxian. If the damage was too much, the county magistrate might teach him a lesson when he returned.

Liu Qi was not afraid of anything in the military camp, but he was afraid of Han Zhen.

Without him, Han Zhen would have been really cruel in beating him!
Every time, he was beaten until he cried for his father and mother.

In addition, there are many unexpected and gruesome ways of punishment.

For example, confinement...

Ever since he was imprisoned once, Liu Qi secretly swore that he never wanted to be imprisoned again.

Zhang Wanxian fled, but Liu Qi did not stop him. He just followed from a distance, rushing forward and shooting a hail of arrows from time to time.

When Zhang Wanxian wanted to start a battle and prepare to fight back, Liu Qi would retreat far away again.

This feeling is very bad, as if being targeted by a pack of wolves, looking for the right opportunity to pounce on you and bite you.

Although each bite only tore off a small piece of flesh and blood, there were more and more wounds.

Glancing hatefully at the cavalry at the rear, Zhang Wanxian suppressed his annoyance and led the remaining troops to continue fleeing to Mushui.

As long as you cross the river, you will be completely safe.

He couldn't believe it. These cavalrymen could still fly across the river with their wings!
Thinking of this, Zhang Wanxian felt comforted in his heart.

What he didn't know was that he was gradually drifting away without realizing it.

Like a flock of sheep, deliberately driven to a desperate place by hungry wolves.

……

Two thousand armed guards were stationed on the banks of the Mushui Ferry.

They were ordered to rush here yesterday morning.

At first I thought we would meet the enemy soon, but who would have thought that the wait would take a day and a night.

"Marquis Yu, it's already the second day, let alone Dare Chijun, not even a ghost can be seen."

Listening to the personal guard's complaint, Huang Kai glared at him fiercely and scolded: "That's so long-winded. Since the commander-in-chief has arranged the errand, it makes sense."

Hearing this, the guard curled his lips.

At this moment, there was a rush of hoofbeats.

Immediately afterwards, a spy came galloping on horseback.

Huang Kai's expression changed and he said loudly: "What's the matter?"

The spy replied: "Reporting to Marquis Yu, a large number of daredevil troops were found three miles away, heading towards the ferry."

It really came!

Huang Kai hurriedly asked: "How many people are there?"

"About three to four hundred people."

The spy's answer shocked all the armed guards.

Three 5000 people?

There are only 2000 of them.

But what the spy said next made them happy again: "There seems to be cavalry chasing behind!"

cavalry?

No need to think about it, they must be the heavy armored cavalry under Dutong!
Huang Kai shouted: "The whole army obeys the order and unites the army to meet the enemy!"

For a moment, the soldiers immediately began to prepare for battle.

Half an hour later, two thousand armed guards were fully armed and arrayed, waiting for the arrival of the Ganchi Army.

After waiting for about half an hour, figures appeared in front of them.

Clang!
Huang Kai pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted: "Meet the enemy!"

……

After fleeing all the way, only more than 3000 of the originally more than [-] Ganchi troops were left.

But we were about to reach the Makamizu Ferry, and it was totally worth sacrificing nearly 2000 people.

"No, there is an ambush ahead!"

Suddenly, someone in the front army let out an exclamation.

Zhang Wanxian was stunned for a moment, and when he took a quick look, his face turned pale and his hands and feet were cold.

In front of the ferry on the bank of the Mushui River, two thousand armed guardsmen were spread out in military formation. They had been waiting for them for a long time.

There are tigers in front of you and wolves behind you.

"God will kill me!"

Zhang Wanxian looked sad and angry, looking up to the sky and shouting.

Rumble!
At this moment, the cavalry behind him attacked again.

The reason why these daredevils did not collapse during their escape was partly due to Zhang Wanxian's high prestige, but also because of their luck.

As long as you cross the river, you will be safe.

But at this moment, hope was completely shattered.

After only two or three launches, the daredevil army collapsed.

Seeing the Dao Chi army fleeing in all directions, Liu Qi put away his bow and arrows, drew out the knife from his waist, and shouted loudly: "Charge the formation!"

More than five hundred light cavalry changed their previous tactics and charged into the crowd fiercely and ferociously.

As the war horse galloped at high speed, the long knife in his hand easily cut off heads one after another.

With just one charge, Ganchijun was completely defeated.

On the other side, Huang Kai was riding on a war horse, holding a phoenix-eye knife, slashing left and right, showing his bravery.

After cutting down several people in a row, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a daredevil riding on a horse, rushing toward the ferry like crazy.

Zhang Wanxian!
Huang Kai didn't recognize Zhang Wanxian, but he felt extremely confident at this moment.

Thinking of this, he immediately mounted his horse to meet him.

Zhang Wanxian's face was ferocious, his eyes were red, and he raised his hand and struck out with a knife.

Although Huang Kai did not have much military talent, he was a brave general, no one could compare to Zhang Wanxian.

I saw him parrying the long sword, and following the impact of the war horse, the Phoenix Eyed Saber swept towards Zhang Wanxian's neck.

puff!

Along with the gushing blood, a human head rose into the sky!
