Ji Han Liu Zhang

Chapter 51
"Ming Gong, we should take advantage of this moment to march." Huang Quan suggested to Liu Zhang with his hands in hand.

Gao Pei on the side also echoed: "What the chief clerk said is reasonable."

Liu Zhang naturally knew that now that Xu Meng had led the army, he could kill the brave rebels in less than one battle. Now that the morale of the army was boosted, it was a good time to attack.

He nodded and issued the order: "The left and right wings advance together, and the central army presses forward slightly."

After receiving the order, the herald immediately waved the marching flag and issued orders to the front line.

Xi Su and Lingbao, who were arranged on the left and right wings in front of the fish scale formation, waved their hands after receiving the order from the Chinese army, and then a row of shieldmen holding large shields walked out of the formation, and their subordinates mobilized The soldiers advanced under the cover of large shields.

Xu Meng, who was sitting in the center of the front army, also received the order. After waiting for Xi Su and Lingbao on the left and right wings to advance the formation, he led his men to advance as well.

On the rebel central position, Xie Feng looked at Xie Chang, who was killed in less than a moment, with a somewhat unsightly look on his face.

Liu He and Bai Xi, who were standing beside him, were quite conscious and did not look at Xie Feng at this time, not wanting to meet his eyes to avoid embarrassment.

At this time, seeing the two wings of Liu Zhang's army begin to advance, Liu He coughed, changed the subject, and said: "Let the front army prepare and try the quality of Liu Zhang's son."

At present, Zhishi did not take any advantage. Liu Zhang took advantage of Zhishi's victory to take advantage of the game. Now the two wings have begun to advance.

Faced with this situation, Liu He called the flag commander to signal the left and right wings of the Fish Scale Formation to stabilize their formation and prepare for battle. The flag commander of the Chinese army immediately waved the corresponding flag and sent it to the left and right wings of the forward army.

Xie An, a descendant of the Xie family who was commanding the right wing of the Fish Scale Formation in front of the formation, saw this and immediately called on the archers standing at the front of the formation to set up their bows and arrows. However, he did not draw their bows, but waited quietly for Liu Zhang's army to advance.

Xie An squinted his eyes and looked at the opponent on the opposite side. He saw that the flag had the word "attack", which meant Xi Su. He had followed Gao Pei to Bajun before to conquer the captain of the Li family of Bajun, but now he saw that Xisu was under his command. The scale is already that of a school captain.

Dongzhou's elite soldiers were old enough to fight. Naturally, Xie An couldn't mobilize his troops to advance like Xi Su. He planned to take advantage of Xi Su's advance to send a few waves of bows and arrows to see if he could force the attack on Su to stop. The pace of advancement.

The two armies were only two arrows apart, about [-] meters apart. Xisu's troops quickly reached the distance of one arrow. Xie Jing waited quietly without ordering the archers to fire arrows. When an arrow is fired, it will only fall on a person like a mosquito bite.

The soldiers of Xisu's front army were covered by large shields and wore armor. He had to wait for Xisu's troops to get within seventy steps. At this time, the arrows fired by his archers could exert their lethality.

After all, not all of his archers have the ability to pull a two-stone bow and pierce the Yang with a hundred steps.

Xisu Buqu approached a hundred steps away, Xie An immediately issued an order, and the archers drew their bowstrings, waiting for his next instruction.

Seventy steps soon arrived, Xie An waved his hand, and the archers standing in the front row of the military formation received instructions to point the heads of their fully drawn bows and arrows slightly upward.

When there is a large shield held by a shield hand in front of the Su army, the arrows naturally cannot be fired flatly, but thrown slightly upward.

"Fat." Xie An ordered.

'Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. '

Layers of arrow feathers flew into the air, like a plague of locusts, overwhelming the sky, drawing perfect parabolas in the air, and landed on the advancing military formation on the opposite side.

Suddenly, arrows hit the armor, and the clang of metal collided. There was also the sound of arrows hitting and piercing the flesh, just like tearing cloth. A dozen people in the attacking Su army formation fell to the ground with a clang, but Someone quickly filled the vacancy and continued to advance silently.

'Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh. 'Another volley fired from Xie An's archers.

However, the results of the salvo were still far from ideal, and Xi Su's men were still advancing. Seeing this, Xie An issued an order for the archers to retreat from the corridor between the formations.

At the same time, Xie An ordered the spearmen to raise their spears and move forward. The spearmen in the first row tilted their spears about three meters away and pointed the spear tip at the attacking Su army on the opposite side. The spears were stretched out in front of the array, and spears were stretched out from the gaps between the people, forming a nail wall composed of spearheads in front of the array.Xi Su also gave the order. The shield bearers in the first row of the military formation threw down their shields and took the spears from their comrades. They also tilted the spears forward and stretched out one spear tip after another from behind.

Not long after, the two walls of spikes made of spearheads collided.

Liangping County Waiyingzhai.

Listening to the sounds of fighting and war drums coming from afar, Lou Fa told Yang Ping that he needed to go to the toilet and returned to his home base.

He came outside the tent in the center of the camp, opened the door curtain, and shouted into the tent: "Brother Wenyuan, it's time."

"Okay." Shen Mi, who was as tall as an iron tower and wore a helmet, walked out of the tent quickly.

He obeyed Liu Zhang's order and returned to Bajun. He lurked among the rebels recruited by Liu He. In order to avoid leaking information, he stayed in Lou Fa's tent during this period.

"What's the situation now?" He asked Lou Fa about the current situation.

Lou gave a concise and comprehensive explanation of the current situation and gave suggestions: "We are facing a battle with Liu He ahead. Brother Wenyuan can lead troops to attack the Chinese army's tent in the camp. I will use the excuse of deploying troops to defend Liang Ping. Go and capture Liangping County."

"That's very good." Shen Mi agreed. Once the camp outside the city and Liangping County were lost, the rebels would become homeless dogs. Moreover, the rebels' food, grass and baggage were all in Liangping County. Once Liangping was lost, the rebels would be hungry. A bereaved dog with a belly.

Furthermore, Shen Mi preferred the two armies to confront each other and attack the city rather than sneak attack on the city.

He turned his head and stared at the Chinese army's tent in the camp, as if looking at a delicious feast.

In Liangping County.

"Fu Qushuai, please." Shengdao said to Qushuai Fuji who was staying in the city.

Fu Ji picked up the wine bowl and covered his head and drank. He drank a little too much. He felt a little dizzy and waved his hand: "Magistrate Sheng, isn't this bad?"

"Now Liu Biejia is fighting fiercely outside the city. You can still hear the sound of war drums here, but we and I are drinking here."

He felt something was not appropriate. Although he felt honored that Shengdao, the magistrate of Liangping County, invited him to come and drink, he seemed to have drank too much and was afraid that he would not be able to handle anything if something happened.

"Hey." Seeing this, Shengdao immediately persuaded him: "Don't worry, Fuqushuai. I'm still in the city. Just leave everything to me."

"That's true." Fuji got excited and responded: "Liang Ping is under the rule of Magistrate Sheng. With Magistrate Sheng here, he should be as stable as Mount Tai."

He filled another cup of Shu's famous wine, pure and clear, and drank it all in one gulp.

He didn't care about the current situation, and he didn't care about the outcome of the previous battle. It was good to win. He could get more gold, silk and Shu brocade. If he lost, he would lead his brothers If he goes to Daba Mountain and stays in the land of Yiyi, no one can do anything to him.

Fuji shook his dizzy head and felt the brain's control over his limbs. He felt that he was not able to exert his strength. He still had to stay awake to deal with the outcome of the upcoming battle.

So he suppressed his alcohol addiction, pushed the wine glass, and said, "Magistrate Sheng, I think I can't drink anymore. Maybe Liu Biejia will ask me to wait."

Hearing this, Shengdao stood up and walked towards Fuji and said, "Fuqushuai, have another drink and I will pour the wine for you myself."

"That's fine, that's fine." Fu Ji nodded in agreement. He could still handle one cup.

Shengdao walked up to Fuji, half-bent, but instead of picking up the wine bottle, he pulled out the sharp sword from his waist with a clang.

"Thief, look at the sword."
