Chapter 457 Victory in the first battle
"They're coming."

Xia Zhining stood on the watchtower, looking seriously at the "Jin Xia soldiers" rushing over from the opposite side.

"Beat the drum and meet the enemy!"

Following Chen Mo's order, the war drums were beaten on the high platform outside Chen Junying, and the dull drum sound spread to all directions.

"Keep your formation and attack the enemy directly. Go to where there are many people and kill them. Be sure to kill them and leave the enemy generals to me." Chang En, riding on a tall black horse in the formation guard, ordered.

The messenger passed Chang En's order among the guards.

Chang En doesn't understand the art of war. Chen Mo taught him these during the discussion last night.

"dong dong dong"

As the order spread and the drum beat became more and more intense, Chang En threw his helmet on the ground with his hair disheveled. He was not used to wearing this and felt a little restrained. He held a cleaver in his hand and shouted: "Soldiers, follow me. Kill the enemy..."

The trapped guards responded to the order and quickly formed a small formation. When approaching the enemy, they first fired three rounds of arrows, and then charged towards the enemy with great momentum.

Therefore, when charging to kill, be merciful. It is enough to hit the enemy without the strength to backhand, and no lives will be hurt.

But just such a beautiful scene was completely destroyed by the brutal fighting of tens of thousands of soldiers from both sides. Blood spattered, the white petals were dyed red, and the grass was also red.

The trapped guards formed in battalion units, with spears like a forest, squeezing the weak "puppet soldiers" back step by step.

The puppet troops who surrendered to Jinxia were all composed of garrison troops from various northern cities and strong men captured by Jinxia. They had not been trained at all. In addition to being able to form a complete formation at the beginning, after charging and killing, they were deliberately trapped by the defenders. After being killed and dispersed, the soldiers of the puppet army could only fight on their own. Often dozens or more than a hundred people gathered together to protect themselves like hedgehogs.

The footsteps trampled the flowers into mud, and corpses continued to fall, with arrows and weapons stuck on the corpses.

On the other hand, the trap guards have undergone arduous training and fought against King Huai's army. Although their strength is not as brave and powerful, if the army is divided into three tiers, the trap guards will be second-rate anyway, and the "puppet army" will be the third tier. no.

But after seeing the people around him being mercilessly killed by the enemy.

Some looked around in a panic, and even began to be unable to distinguish between the enemy and ourselves. The end was that they were quickly killed.

However, a large number of feather arrows pierced the sky, still causing bursts of miserable howls among the dense "puppet army" array, and from time to time someone fell to the ground.

Chang En was also angry.

He killed one person with a knife.

On the other side, facing the rain of arrows shot by Chen Jun, Hu Shu shouted loudly, and the puppet shield soldiers at the front quickly raised their shields high to cover their bodies.

Under the heavy fire of feather arrows, the casualties among the "puppet troops" suddenly increased, and some even panicked and began to retreat.

As the surrendered pawns of Jin Xia, Jin Xia was still on guard against Hu Shu and the others. Not all Jin Xia soldiers were wearing armor, let alone them. Arrows were all missing, and the weapons they held were all used up and eliminated by Jin Xia soldiers. .

The result was that he was beheaded by the Jin Xia soldiers who supervised the battle.

"The ambition to trap the enemy is life or death. Kill!" the sergeants of the enemy guards shouted, completely killing the "puppet troops".

After resisting three rounds of arrow rain, the puppet troops also responded with shouts.

"Raise your shield."

In July and August, the plains are still full of green. The wind blows across the earth, and colorful wild flowers dance with it, bathing in the sunshine and exuding fragrance.

This was his first time to kill someone, and he was stunned. The feeling of blood splattered on his face was no different from when he was hunting wild beasts in the mountains.

Chang'en has never killed anyone, and he doesn't want to kill anyone in his heart.

The enemy's spears were stabbing at him from all directions. In his daze, the horse under him was stabbed to death. The spear blades stabbing him were blocked by the innate spiritual energy protecting his body, and he was knocked to the ground. .

But the enemy army showed no mercy and continued to kill him.

"Protect the general." The surrounding guards moved closer to Chang En. "kill."

With an angry shout, Chang En slapped the ground and stood up. He swung his saber and cut off all the spears that were thrust towards him. Then he moved his steps slightly and used his body skills to dodge first and then lunge forward. The last one swung, and the other with a sword. The flames of the sword were slashed out, and more than a dozen enemy soldiers who were stabbed were killed in the middle, and the air was filled with a burning smell.

"Wan Sheng."

Seeing this scene, a burst of earth-shaking shouts suddenly broke out in the formation of the Trap Guards, and the shouts burst out from the throats of countless Trap Guards soldiers.

"kill."

After killing more than a dozen people in a row, Chang En became red-eyed. He held a machete and ran towards Hu Shu, who had no bodyguard.

If the army is like a melting pot, whoever enters will have its edges smoothed.

Then the battlefield is a training ground, and no matter how kind-hearted a person is, he will become numb after a bloody battle.

"dong dong dong"

The drum sound from the left rear of the trap guard sounded, which prompted the soldiers of the trap guard to charge towards the left formation.

"Retreat, retreat quickly."

Hu Shu was not a courageous person. After being captured by Jin Xia, he was just frightened and surrendered to the enemy.

Now seeing that the army had been defeated less than half an hour after the confrontation, they were immediately frightened and turned their horses around, preparing to flee first.

"Where to run."

However, at this moment, a bloody general of the Chen Army was holding a saber, charging towards him one by one.

Although he was not riding a horse, he seemed to be faster than a horse on the battlefield where the generals were fighting.

Hu Shu immediately realized that this man was very powerful. He turned around and ran away while running, shouting: "General, save me, general, save me."

The general was so greedy for life that he ran away from his horse and begged for help in such a panic.

The already defeated puppet army completely gave up resistance and scurried away.

"Don't retreat, don't retreat, anyone who retreats again will be killed," Jin Xia's war supervising team threatened.

"waste."

On the watchtower behind, Timur saw this scene and immediately cursed angrily. He had fought and won consecutive battles before and had not encountered any stubborn resistance, so Timur never realized that Hu Shu was so unbearable. hit.

"General, the last general has long said that the people of Song Dynasty are not worthy of great use." Yelu Tongku said.

Timur lowered his eyes and immediately ordered: "Ming Jin withdraws his troops. General Yelu, these Song people are still useful. Don't let them all die. Take your people to cover them and retreat."

"No." Yelu Tongku said.

"clang clang"

The crisp sound of gongs resounded throughout the Jinxia camp.

After the supervising team learned that Ming Jin had withdrawn his troops, they no longer stopped the fleeing "puppet troops".

"die."

Chang En also knew that the enemy Ming Jin had withdrawn his troops at this time, so he couldn't help but activate the Ling Ran Xuan Gong, speeding up his movements, then stamped his feet fiercely, jumped up, and slashed at the fleeing Hu Shu.
