My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 772: Massacre Begins on the Banks of the Yellow River! Yan Dan’s Resoluteness, Ying Chengjiao’s Misjudgment!
When Ying Chengjiao's order was given, 50,000 Qin crossbowmen immediately put armor-piercing arrows into their crossbows.

The slender armor-piercing arrows shot towards the river bank like drizzle, but they pierced through the iron armor that conventional crossbow arrows could not penetrate, and even penetrated the iron helmets of the elite Yan army, making close contact with their rosy white brains!
The 30,000 Qin troops were like hungry wolves out of a cage, rushing wildly towards the front and center armies of the Yan army!
Throwing away his comrades behind him, Ying Bu walked past Ying Chengjiao with his head down, staring at the front of the Yan army not far away with his green eyes, and shouted excitedly: "I am Ying Bu of Liuxian!"

"The enemy will die!"

Gongsun Gao ignored the shouts of Ying Bu, a nameless soldier who had just broken through the army formation. He just stared at the large flag with the word "Meng" in the distance, and looked at the Qin army's large flag not far away with his peripheral vision. He shouted in a deep voice: "All troops, form a cone formation!"

"The left and right wings retreat to block the Qin army's attack!"

"The rear troops move backwards to support the central army!"

Under Gongsun Gao's orders, the Yan army's vanguard slowly retreated, trying to join forces with the central army led by Yan Dan as soon as possible.

Gongsun Gao's decision was not wrong.

After all, on the current battlefield, only the vanguard led by Gongsun Gao has its troops in neat formation and is capable of withstanding the attack of the Qin army.

Only when the Yan army's vanguard could withstand the Qin army's charge could the Yan army's main force complete its military reorganization, form a battle formation, and turn defeat into victory!
However, this movement created a flaw!
Looking at the gap that appeared between the two groups of spearmen in front of him due to the movement, Ying Bu's eyes suddenly lit up. He sped up again and rushed forward with all his might, thrusting the spear in his hand forward without hesitation.

"kill!"

As he roared, the spear slipped into the Yan army through a strategic gap on the side of the spear forest and hit a Yan soldier right in the throat!

Without even paying attention to the situation of the Yan army on the opposite side, Ying Bu felt the touch of the spear tip with his fingers, and immediately used his right arm to retract the spear, and then continued to thrust forward!

In a flash, a clear hole appeared on the necks of the three Yan army spearmen, and large amounts of blood gushed out.

The existing flaws were torn even bigger!

Ying Bu stepped forward without hesitation, crouched down and broke into the forest of Yan army's spears. The spear in his hand turned into a long stick and swept it around him fiercely.

"Bang bang bang~"

"what!"

The shin bones of two Yan soldiers were smashed directly, and six Yan soldiers were knocked down by spears.

"My troops have encountered Qin's elite soldiers! Requesting support!"

"Third and fourth squads, take up your guns and kill this general!"

"Shameless Qin dog, actually ordered the elite soldiers to pretend to be soldiers and ambush and kill us!"

The Yan army's formation, which had been neatly arranged like a forest, suddenly had a small dent. A group of middle and lower-level Yan generals nearby shouted and cursed, and mobilized their soldiers to kill Ying Bu.

Ying Bu's eyes lit up and he laughed out loud: "Good job!"

He rolled on the ground to avoid the attack from the spearmen in the back row, then Ying Bu half-knelt on the ground, and thrust his spear diagonally upward from his crotch, taking the life of another Yan army spearman.

With a glimpse of a Yan soldier lying on the ground trying to draw his sword, Ying Bu immediately let go of his spear, reached out and took out his sword, stood up, raised his right leg high, and stepped down heavily!

With just one kick, Ying Bu broke the cervical vertebrae of the Yan soldier. He then used the force to rush towards a nearby Yan soldier and stabbed the sword in his hand steadily, accurately and ruthlessly into the man's heart.

Meng Tian:!!!
Seeing that Ying Bu had torn a gap in the Yan army's formation with just his own strength, and could even continue to kill the enemy and create chaos at the gap, Meng Tian's eyes widened and he was shocked.

Whose general is this, and why is he so brave?

Oh, it’s mine!
Meng Tian shouted excitedly: "Hurry up and reinforce our warriors!"

"All troops, charge towards the gap on the right wing of the Yan army. Follow this gap and cut off the Yan army!"

The two armies of Meng Tian and Meng Nan had only over 11,000 soldiers.

But they had the advantage of an ambush, high morale, a gap created by Ying Bu, and a loose formation caused by Gongsun Gao having to retreat to rescue Yan Dan.

With the combined effect of several factors, the more than 11,000 Qin troops not only delayed the Yan army's vanguard, but even cut it off in the middle and defeated it!
Seeing that Meng Tian's troops had completed their mission in excess, Ying Chengjiao was delighted and shouted loudly: "The front of the Yan army has been captured."

"The rest of the Yan army is in chaos!"

"If we don't kill the general and confer the title of nobility now, when will we?"

"Soldiers, charge!"

With a kick on the horse's belly, the warhorse under Ying Chengjiao's crotch neighed excitedly, carrying Ying Chengjiao from east to west and breaking into the center of the Yan army, which had no time to reorganize its troops!
With the help of the warhorse's speed, Ying Chengjiao simply raised the halberd in his hand, and the halberd blade cut the throat of a Yan soldier.

With a flick of his wrist and a slight adjustment of the direction of the halberd tip, the halberd tip pierced the neck of another 500-man commander of the Yan army!
Behind Ying Chengjiao, more than a thousand cavalrymen followed closely behind him, killing indiscriminately in the Yan army formation as if they were in an empty land, and also cleared a smooth path for the infantry behind them.

On the west side of Yan Dan's troops, ten heavy Qin chariots, pulled by forty strong war horses, crashed into the Yan army's formation, creating a bloody road.

For a time, massacre occurred on the banks of the Yellow River!
Seeing the Qin army wantonly slaughtering his own soldiers, Yan Dan felt anxious and panicked, and shouted angrily: "Fuck them! Fuck them!"

"Send the order for the orphan!"

"Each unit of the Central Army must fight to the last man to buy time for our army."

"The soldiers will immediately organize their troops and stop the Qin army's chariots!"

"The left and right armies must land as soon as possible at all costs, and reinforce the central army as soon as possible!"

"After covering the landing of the left and right armies, the rear army abandoned their ships and landed, heading southeast for the Qin army's crossbowmen!"

After a series of orders, Yan Dan looked behind him and bowed solemnly: "Gentlemen!"

"Because of my carelessness, I fell into an ambush set by Qin Chang'an Jun."

"If we cannot break out of the encirclement, our army will be wiped out, our Great Yan will be in jeopardy, and I will die on the battlefield!"

"I beg you gentlemen to help me stop the troops led by Qin Chang'an!"

"If I can survive, I will thank you all greatly!"

"If you gentlemen encounter misfortune, your families will become my family, and I will take care of them for the rest of my life!" Behind Yan Dan, more than a thousand guests who were treated generously and with courtesy by Yan Dan looked at each other in surprise.

us?

Go and intercept Ying Chengjiao?

Prince, do you think we are a good match?
You might as well let us assassinate Ying Zheng!
But they have been indebted to the prince for a long time, and now that the prince is in danger, how can they be the ones to betray him?

Avoiding war will inevitably lead to social death.

Fight to the death, but you won't necessarily die in battle. If you can kill Ying Chengjiao in battle, your name will become known throughout the world!
With the belief of facing death head on, more than a thousand retainers all bowed their hands and said, "We are willing to fight to the death for the prince!"

Yan Dan dismounted gratefully and knelt on the ground, saying, "Thank you all!"

More than a thousand retainers calmly accepted Yan Dan's gift, and then they all rode their horses towards Ying Chengjiao, shouting excitedly:

"Today is the day for your fame to spread across the world and go down in history!"

"I've heard for a long time that although Qin Chang'an is not a knight-errant, he is a great hero of the time. I'm sorry to offend you today!"

"I will repay your kindness with my death, and live up to your blood!"

The noisy shouts of more than a thousand people forced Ying Chengjiao to turn around and look behind him.

Although these more than a thousand guests were dressed differently, had different armors, and even had different weapons, they all came riding on war horses!

Ying Chengjiao immediately showed a solemn expression and shouted in a deep voice: "The infantrymen continue to charge westward, join forces with our chariots, and continue to create chaos in the center of the Yan army."

"Cavalry, listen to my orders!"

"Turn northwest and rush right!"

With a pull of the reins, Ying Chengjiao rode his horse forward and charged out of the Yan army formation from the northwest. Then he turned around and took out the short bow from his back, aimed at the Yan Dan followers and shot an arrow.

"Dang~"

With the sound of metal clashing, the arrow hit the axe of a mountain axe.

The warrior holding the axe had his wrists numb and trembling but he still pretended to be calm and laughed heartily: "Hahahaha~"

"I have heard of Lord Chang'an for a long time, but today I see that he is just like this!"

"I am Changshan... Hoo!"

This warrior has been fantasizing about bragging about this for the rest of his life, or even letting everyone in the world know that he had fought with Ying Chengjiao and did not lose!
However, before the warrior could finish his words, an arrow had already passed through his open mouth and pierced through the back of his head, leaving only the tail feathers trembling outside his mouth.

The hexagram master put down his short bow and said coldly: "How can I let you live if you insult my master!"

Ying Chengjiao laughed out loud: "Nice shot!"

"Hold your bows on the left wing and shoot the enemy cavalry!"

After shooting a test arrow, Ying Chengjiao was basically certain that this cavalry that did not look like soldiers at all must be Yan Dan's retainers.

How could someone who was recruited by Yan Dan as a retainer, supported with generous rewards, and even taken to the battlefield be an ordinary person?

In order to avoid heavy casualties among his soldiers, Ying Chengjiao gave up close combat without hesitation. Instead, he took advantage of his early position on the right side and shot one by one with his bow and arrow!

Yan Dan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

It's worth it to sacrifice the lives of more than a thousand guests to delay Ying Chengjiao!
Seeing that his personal soldiers had also assembled, Yan Dan shouted without hesitation: "Our reinforcements are in the north!"

"As long as we join forces with our reinforcements, even if our army suffers heavy losses in this battle, we can still turn around and annihilate the Qin army!"

"Order the front and middle armies to entangle the Qin army and buy time for our army!"

"Order the left, right, and rear armies to follow the command of Deputy General Yan Hu and catch up with me as soon as possible!"

"My dear soldiers, listen to my orders, follow me and charge!"

Yan Dan squeezed the horse's belly, held the reins with one hand, held the spear upside down, and rode out in a heroic manner.

However, Yan Dan's charge was not in the direction of the Qin army's main force, but in the northeast direction where the Qin army's forces were relatively sparse!

Ying Chengjiao was stunned when he saw this: "Why would Prince Dan of Yan rush to the northeast right now?"

The northeast direction is indeed the direction where the Qin army's strength is relatively sparse, but it is only relatively sparse. Twenty-five thousand Qin soldiers are killing the enemy with crossbows in the east. It won't take them long to plug this gap!
Yan Dan could indeed break out from this corner before the Qin army on the east side blocked the gap, but then what?
What about the 120,000 Yan troops behind? !

Just don’t want it? ! !

Ying Chengjiao had never expected that Yan Dan would break out to the northeast at this moment.

Because Ying Chengjiao never expected that the battle had just begun, the two armies had just started fighting, and the Qin army's strength was far inferior to that of the Yan army, but Yan Dan would be so impatient to start fleeing!

In a hurry, Ying Chengjiao shouted anxiously: "Send a message to the right wing of our army!"

"Give up shooting at the landing Yan army and stop Yan Prince Dan!"

"Soldiers, charge head-on!"

The war was urgent, Ying Chengjiao gave up the guerrilla warfare tactics, pulled the reins and rushed towards Yan Dan's followers!

Looking at the banner that was getting farther and farther away, Yan Hu also sighed softly, and then shouted in a deep voice: "Pass on my order!"

"The front of the right army should charge forward immediately and stop the Qin army's right army!"

"Give the prince a chance to escape!"
