Ji Han Grand Commander

Chapter 529. Battle of Wancheng (XI)

"Quick, fill up the defense line on the southwest side!"

Hu Zun was unaware that he was in great danger, and he continued to command his soldiers, struggling to resist the Han soldiers who were approaching like a tide.

Now, except for the thousands of people around Hu Zun, the other troops on the battlefield have been divided and surrounded by the Han army, cut off from him, and can only fight on their own.

Hu Zun didn't know what his fate would be today, but he thought it was a life-or-death situation, so he could only bite the bullet and command his soldiers to continue to resist. There was no other way, his wife and children were all in Luoyang, so he didn't dare to have any inappropriate thoughts.

"West side! West side!"

Suddenly, a soldier shouted, causing Hu Zun to look sideways. He saw a group of Han cavalrymen piercing through the western defense line of his originally weak circular formation like a sharp knife.

The leader, a big black man holding an iron hammer, was like a god descending from heaven. He swept the hammer across, breaking the spears and halberds of the Wei soldiers. Then he made a slanting strike from bottom to top, and using the momentum of his horse, he directly knocked three or four Wei soldiers holding round shields away.

The Han cavalry behind him followed the torn gap and charged into Hu Zun's defense line, causing the already shaky defense line to collapse instantly.

What's worse is that Hu Zun saw the big black man looking at him from time to time, and it was obvious that he was targeting him.

"General, the bandits are coming in force, why don't we retreat..."

The deputy general next to him had never seen such a vicious man before, and was so scared that he even wanted to run away.

"Haha... run, where can we run now? Today, only Hu Zun is loyal to the country. If I die, you can surrender and don't lose your lives in vain."

Hu Zun smiled miserably, then turned his horse's head and faced Bao Feng who was still charging forward.

"Is there anyone who is not afraid of death and is willing to fight with that Han general with me?"

"We are willing to follow the general!"

The eyes of the hundreds of soldiers who were closer to Hu Zun were red and their voices were sonorous and powerful.

"kill!"

Hu Zun ignored his deputy general and led the hundred men to kill Bao Feng as if he was committing suicide.

The situation on Cheng Wu's side was not very good either. Although the Han cavalry did not immediately attack his defense, but chose to kill the scattered Wei troops behind him, this did not mean that he had a chance to escape.

Now that their retreat was cut off by the Han cavalry, a group of white-armored infantry rushed forward. Their combat effectiveness was obviously higher than that of the other Han soldiers who were wearing apricot-colored linings.

Now there is no so-called discipline on Cheng Wu's side. The situation on the battlefield has turned into a melee with both sides fighting each other. Cheng Wu can only fight against the boundless Han army with more than a hundred personal guards.

"Haha!"

Cheng Wu stabbed a Han soldier in apricot armor to death with one spear, but unexpectedly a Han soldier in white armor emerged from the crowd next to him. He was very brave and shouted loudly, then chopped at his horse's legs with a big knife.

"Herod!"

By the time Cheng Wu noticed it, it was already too late. His horse stumbled and naturally fell to the ground with a whine.

"What a thief!"

Cheng Wu rolled on the ground, stood up with a somersault, angrily cursed the Han soldier, and stabbed the spear in his hand like a dragon into the abdomen of the white-armored Han soldier.

"Thump!" But it did not feel like the gun tip piercing the flesh as he had imagined. Instead, it felt like the tip of the gun had pierced some stone or metal, which made Cheng Wu a little confused.

"Pfft!"

However, Cheng Wu was a general after all, and his force was naturally not something that a soldier like him could withstand. The Han soldier was still stabbed by Cheng Wu's spear, causing his internal organs to shift and he suffered internal injuries. He spurted out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards a foot, falling to the ground, his life or death unknown.

"Ok?"

The strange feeling just now made Cheng Wu subconsciously glance at the battlefield, and he found a clue. In addition to the dark-armored Wei army, most of the corpses on the ground were apricot-armored Han army, and there were very few white-armored Han army, as if the white-armored Han army was extremely difficult to kill.

When Cheng Wu changed his horse to the guards' horse and returned to the high ground, he found that the Han army was indeed tricky. A white-armored Han soldier holding a sword and shield was fighting one against two, facing a sword and shield soldier and a spearman of the Wei army. He was not afraid of the spearman's stabbing attack on his body. Instead, he relied on the sharpness of his sword to cut off the shield of the sword and shield soldier with one blow, and then killed the sword and shield soldier with the second blow, and then killed the bewildered spearman with another blow.

"It seems that these white-armored Han soldiers must be the elite of the Han army, wearing special armor that ordinary swords and arrows cannot penetrate."

Cheng Wu was secretly shocked. It was impossible to notice such details in the chaos of a fight. If he had not encountered it himself, he would probably have overlooked such a small matter.

Cheng Wu continued to lead his guards to fight his way out and try to avoid these white-armored Han soldiers. However, the situation on the battlefield had already taken a sharp turn for the worse. The stragglers behind the Wei army had been killed and driven away by the Han cavalry. The Han cavalry turned their horses around and began to attack from both sides with the Han infantry.

The Han army's infantry also advanced steadily, strangling the Wei army that was fighting on its own. Soon Cheng Wu found that his surroundings had become a sea of ​​apricot and white, with some black scattered among them, but it soon disappeared as if it had been dyed.

"Capture this enemy general and you brothers will get promoted and make a fortune!"

Cheng Wu had an extraordinary demeanor and his armor was also extraordinary, so he was soon spotted by the Han army. A dozen white-armored Han soldiers stabbed Cheng Wu with weapons that looked like spears and halberds, but Cheng Wu rolled his spear and pushed them all away. However, he did not expect that several Han soldiers who had not yet attacked would stab at his horse. With a flip of his wrist, the sharp barb directly cut off Cheng Wu's horse hoof.

"This Han army is really despicable, all they do is attack other people's horses' hooves!"

Cheng Wu was prepared this time and was not knocked over directly. Instead, he leaped forward, used the horse's back to exert force in advance, adjusted his center of gravity in the air, and stabilized his body before landing on the ground.

"kill!"

A dozen soldiers stabbed at Cheng Wu, but Cheng Wu didn't take such ordinary soldiers seriously. Although the Shenwu Camp's combat power was higher than that of ordinary soldiers, they were still inferior soldiers, and there was still a gap between them and a general like Cheng Wu.

"drink!"

Since he knew that the enemy's armor was powerful, Cheng Wu naturally changed his tactics. He twisted his body slightly to avoid the attack of the Han army, raised his spear and stabbed to death a Han soldier in white armor.

"Haha, it turns out that you rely on the convenience of armor."

The Wei soldiers who had just followed Cheng Wu saw that the Han army was invulnerable to swords and spears and thought it was some kind of magic. Now that Cheng Wu easily killed a Han soldier, this statement was naturally refuted.

However, the death of their companions did not frighten these Han soldiers. Several of them rushed directly towards Cheng Wu with swords and shields, while other Han soldiers holding weapons that looked like spears but were not spears were waiting for an opportunity to attack from behind.

"Drink! Ha!"

Cheng Wu shook his spear, knocking the Han army's sword and shield fighter away. He turned his head slightly and glanced behind him, seeing that his bodyguards were also fighting with the Han army.

"Whoosh-!"

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air, which startled Cheng Wu. He caught a glimpse of a black shadow flying towards him at a high speed, but he was distracted and looked behind him just now, so it was too late for him to make any move.
