……

Before the person arrived, a simple curse crossed the space and reached Peng Qi's ears.

There is no way, this person is like a berserker, he can chop wherever he goes, his presence is so strong that even if Hu Cai wants to ignore him, he can't do it.

So, in this chaotic army, one of the two held a long knife, and the other held a long spear, and they fought like this.

……

You went straight to my face with a knife, and I aimed a gun at your chest.

On the battlefield, there were not so many fancy actions such as mutual registration of numbers between the two, but after exchanging a look, they collided like two wild beasts.

As a third-rate general with peak strength, Peng Qi is actually very strong, and even purely in terms of personal force, he has reached the level of Pei Yuanshao back then.

This is not to say that it is not powerful.

It's just a pity that the Hu Cai he met was the best among the millions of people in Lujiang.

It is even jokingly called the "four pillars" of Lujiang.

Yang Feng, Han Xian, Li Le, Hu Cai.

The four top generals among the Yellow Turbans in Baibo, Hedong, finally gathered under Zhang Yan's command again due to various reasons.

The strongest among them, Yang Feng, is also the most powerful echelon among the second-rate generals.

As Yang Feng's righteous brothers, although the remaining Han Xian, Li Le, and Hu Cai have their own strengths, they will not be as perfect as Yang Feng in terms of personal strength...

But it won't be too weak.

Even the weakest Hu Cai... the level of a second-rate military general is still there after all.

……

After the real fight, Peng Qi's unstoppable momentum was finally suppressed by Hu Cai.

As soon as this momentum was released, Peng Qi immediately fell into the opponent's almost endless offensive.

No matter how much he can perform supernormally, the limit of the third rate is there.

In the face of ordinary soldiers, such strength can be called a god descended into the world.

But in the face of Hu Cai, a second-rate general who is a level stronger...

It's not that he doesn't work hard and can't beat this kind of thing, it's really that he can't beat it.

The gap in the level of rigidity between the two is there.

What's more, on this battlefield, Hu Cai and his treatment can be said to be very different.

……

After all, there is no way, the battle between the two is unfair.

In this world, there is no such thing as a fair fight.

If the two of them come and go as if they were sparring, maybe Peng Qi, who is at the peak level of the third rate, will not lose so quickly.

At the very least, he wouldn't be killed by Hu Cai with a shotgun in his throat like now.

However, since she came here by boat in a hurry, Peng Qi carried almost nothing except a suit of armor and a long knife.

Even on the head, a turban was simply tied.

What kind of visor, what kind of helmet... Don't ask, I just came in a hurry, and I didn't notice that I forgot it on the other side of the Yangtze River.

Not to mention, in terms of strength, Hu Cai has a mount under him to help him, and he almost goes all out with every shot.

And Peng Qi came here by boat, can't let his mount also board the boat?

……

Fighting on foot against horses, facing the opponent's armor penetration rate like an iron can, Peng Qi played GG at the speed of light.

Not long after the fight, Hu Cai used his horse's momentum to knock down the weapon in Peng Qi's hand with a powerful and heavy shot.

Immediately afterwards, when he bent down to pick up the weapon, Hu Cai's long spear, like a wind and lightning stab, directly penetrated Peng Qi's throat, picking up the man like a broken puppet.

……

"The thief general is dead, you don't have to fight in the corner, you have to subdue the law as soon as possible!"

……

Things on the battlefield changed rapidly, from Peng Qi leading the men to rush to land on the beach, to Hu Cai noticing the strangeness of the other party, to killing him with a single shot...

From the looks of it, it seemed that it only took a moment.

But in just a short while, the Lujiang Army Formation, which had maintained a good formation, had already been smashed to pieces.

Although Lujiang soldiers were very brave when facing the same soldiers, for a general, these ordinary soldiers still seemed too fragile.

Looking around now, in the direction close to the Yangtze River, many phalanxes of hundreds of people have been washed out of shape by the thieves from Shanyue. The encirclement network was defeated.

As for the number of people lost...

To be honest, even Sun Jian, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, couldn't help being shocked when he saw it.

……

From the overall perspective of the 2 soldiers and horses in the entire army, the casualties in Lujiang after this battle were about three to four thousand.

Among them, the vast majority of casualties did not appear until after the outbreak of the second battle.

This seems reasonable.

As a cold weapon army in the classical period, the death rate exceeded one-tenth, even approaching one-fifth, and it has not yet collapsed...

Perhaps those famous elite troops in history can also do it.

……

To repeat, this is viewed from the perspective of the entire army.

……

As long as you focus on the specific camp, or even the specific square formation, the death rate in Lujiang becomes magical.

……

According to statistics afterwards, a large number of hundred-man phalanxes were wiped out in the most critical places.

There were even two battalions that were counted after the war. The battalion officers disappeared together with their deputies and thousands of people with military flags.

If he hadn't found the fragments of the strangled military flag on the battlefield, Sun Jian would probably have suspected that the battalion officer had become a deserter and slipped out of the army while taking advantage of the chaos.

And this is just a microcosm of this battlefield.

……

run?

Of course they also want to run.

Just like other armies in the cold weapon period, watching the comrades around them being killed, this filled the hearts of those soldiers with fear.

They can't wait to run back to their hometown and stop being some shit soldiers and generals.

This job is simply not humanly capable.

……

But how do they run?

……

It was Yamakoshi before, now it's their turn.

The soldiers on the river beach are all thieves from Shanyue around them.

Unless you don't want to live anymore...

Otherwise, please take up arms.

Dear warrior, you are now at a depth of battle that is completely inaccessible by charge.

Either hack all the enemies around you, or be hacked to death by them.

You have no other choice.

……

"The No. 11 and [-] battalions were all wiped out, and more than half of the seventh to tenth battalions lost..."

"Our losses in this battle are indeed great, but Xiaozhi, don't be too harsh on yourself."

"After all, we have won a big battle, not lost it!"

"If others don't know, looking at you like this, you might think we've lost this battle!"

……

After being silent for a while, seeing no one in the camp, Sun Jian took a deep breath, and only then did he draw everyone's attention to himself.

That's right, Lujiang suffered a great loss in this battle, but it did win, and it was a big victory.

……

"As for casualties... don't worry about it, just do your job well."

"This war is not over yet. If Xiao Zhi feels uncomfortable, then save face in the next battle."

"These soldiers who died in battle...I will go and explain to you prefect Zhang Yan."

……

Chapter No.17 Spiritual Inheritance

"It is normal for casualties to occur during a marching battle."

"You don't have to worry too much, I will explain to you prefects over there."

……

Softly comforting everyone present, Sun Jian hooked the corners of his mouth, revealing a somewhat forced smile.
