Chapter 707

Fight again at Luokou

In the early morning of May 6, 616, Li Mi sent envoys to Yan and Chen countries, and also began to lead the entire army to retreat, preparing to turn around and take back Luokou Cang.

At the same time, Zhang Zhongjian and Zheng Xuanying issued an order to attack the Wei army together, and the battle began again by the Luokou River.

It was light raining in the sky, and thousands of troops were floating in the rain and fog, and the front line was winding and turbulent like a long snake.

Wang Xuanying led 100,000 Jianghuai troops to attack the entire line and personally went to the front line. The Jianghuai troops slowly approached like dark clouds. Their team covered the entire earth, and their black wings stretched out long, and they could not see the end at a glance. The rising dust covered the sky and the sun was covered. The "rustling" footsteps were like walking in the hearts of Wei soldiers.

The blue Jianghuai Army flags were flying and flying. Under the battle flags, the Jianghuai Paishu Army infantry formations, which showed their skills in the previous battle, were arranged in neat arrays, and took neat steps, holding a row of spears like a forest, rumbled toward the Wei army's front.

The two wings of the huge trapezoidal infantry formation are the two wings of the infantry formation, following the Jianghuai light cavalry who were slowly advancing. Thousands of troops and thousands of horses walked with their bridles.

The Wei army formed a formation with the back of the Mangshan Mountain. Li Mi was wearing a purple bright light armor, wearing a puppet with a purple helmet tassel, and stepped on a tall maroon war horse. He held a long autumn sword in his hand and stood in front of him.

The slowly coming of the Jianghuai Army was like a heavy mountain, which made the Wei soldiers who had just been defeated by the Jianghuai Army a few days ago pale and sweaty their palms.

Li Mi pulled out his long sword, held the sword in his hand, jumped forward, shouting loudly, "The clown jumping, dares to come out and be arrogant!" After a night of emergency discussion last night, the Wei army had already decided on the strategy to connect Yan and Chen, and brought them all to the battlefield of the Central Plains.

However, although the envoys had been sent, they could not wait for the arrival of reinforcements. The 100,000 Wei troops in Luokou were left with only three days of food, and the Wei army could not wait. Moreover, only by taking back Luokou, the Wei army could regain the food and grass and join with several other troops.

The plan was decided, but it was not easy to implement. The Wei army had just been defeated by the Jianghuai army, so it was not easy to easily withdraw from their noses. Fang Xuanzao originally proposed to withdraw his troops quietly at night, but was rejected by Li Mi. The two armies were only a few miles apart, so how could it be possible for the 100,000 troops in the Wei camp to evacuate quietly at night? In particular, many soldiers in the army had night blindness at night and could not be seen.

Moreover, if the Wei army is newly defeated, it will inevitably be panic. If the Jianghuai Army is discovered and the opponent selects elite light cavalry to attack, it will cause chaos in the Wei army and even cause catastrophic fleeing.

Li Mi knew in his heart that although it was only a few dozen miles away from Luokou Cang, if he wanted to withdraw, he had to be determined to fight to the death. Only by fighting a tough battle with the Jianghuai Army at the foot of Mangshan, defeating the Jianghuai Army and slashing its morale, could he return to Luokou Cang.

Moreover, Li Mi has carefully studied the process of fighting with the Jianghuai Army that day with his subordinates these days, and has summarized some experiences about the failure that day. In the view of the Wei army, that failure was because the Wei army underestimated the enemy and only thought that the Hebei army had only 50,000 or 60,000 people. Secondly, he felt that the territory was advantageous, but he did not expect that the Jianghuai Army had landed on the beach. Although the situation was unfavorable, the Jianghuai Army was fighting for the backstop, and everyone was determined to fight to the death. In addition, the Jianghuai Army's sudden move was taken by the ace that had been hidden, which suddenly took action, so he caught the Wei army off guard. Especially the heavy cavalry of the Jianghuai Army was the key to the failure of that battle.

In response to this, Li Mi formed a formation against Mangshan this time, dived against the enemy and occupied the advantage of the territory. With Mangshan as a screen behind him, the Wei army's back was very safe, but he could fight against the enemy with all his heart. In addition, with the lesson of underestimating the enemy last time, Li Mi believed that no soldier would underestimate the JAC Army again this time. He had already had countermeasures for the most sharp heavy cavalry of the JAC Army.

Li Mi shouted passionately in front of the formation, "Brothers, we beat the Hu man Wang Shichong to throw away his armor and fled to Hedong. Now, are we still afraid of his little boy who has not grown all his hair yet?"

"Brothers, the day before yesterday, Wang Xuanying played with us, and he made us feel silly. This time, we will defeat them in this dignified way. We want them to know that those soft-footed shrimps that grew up in the Jianghuai River Town should go home and fish. The Central Plains is not a place they can stay!"

"Brothers, there are only 100,000 Jianghuai Army on the other side. Chen Pojun had known the power of our Wei army and had gone to avoid the edge. What should we be afraid of Chen Pojun's 100,000 lackeys? Yang Guang sent so many official troops to encircle and suppress, who won the final victory?"

Li Mi's shouting in front of the formation was very effective. As he shouted one by one, the morale of the Wei army continued to rise.

"Brothers, before dark, we will completely annihilate the little boys of the Wang family. After the war, each head level will be replaced with a hundred acres of land! If someone captures Wang Xuanying alive, he will be rewarded with ten thousand yuan of money and given ten thousand households to Marquis!"

Under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.

Such a heavy reward was issued in front of Li Mi's three armies, which completely ignited the morale of all the Wei army. In the Wei army formation, 100,000 Wei soldiers took the weapons and armor in their hands and made waves of roars. The 100,000 Wei soldiers were full of blood and were as powerful as tigers.

The noise of the Wei army seemed to suppress the Jianghuai army. The 100,000 Jianghuai army was still advancing slowly, but there was no such fanatical morale.

The two armies were less than two hundred steps apart, and the Jianghuai Army took the lead in launching the attack.

Braving the wind and snow towards us, the 150,000 orcs and the snake clan coalition began to slowly move towards us.

The front was moving, and countless Jianghuai straits wearing bright light armor were gasping for breath, holding their infantry spears and shields. The light cavalry kept kicking and hitting the horse's belly, maintaining the pace with the infantry formation. While waving their cavalry, they shouted: "The Jianghuai army will win!", "The King of Zheng will win!", with their voices shocking. The black queue rushed towards the Wei army's formation like a tide, with drums rolling and horns ringing, and the soldiers seemed to be rushing to the market.

The Wei army's formation was still unmoving. Compared with the hustle and bustle of the coalition forces, although the Wei army's camp was faintly moving, it was a lush. The mountain-like spear forest was erected high towards the sky, and the wind blew the flags and made a sound of rushing.

The sound of horse hooves ticked one after another, and the commanders riding horses ran through the passage between various square formations, loudly issued a command: "Hold on the ground!", "Be prepared!" The infantry in the front row squatted down obediently, inserted their shields and spears deep into the mud, forming a defensive formation. Behind the formation, 30,000 archers were divided into ten columns, placing arrows on their strong bows, with a cold expression.

When the two armies approached a hundred steps, the unsustainable Jianghuai archers first shot the arrow. The flying arrows in the air fell into the dense queue of Wei army, splashing blood and moans. The Wei soldiers who were caught in the arrow fell down without saying a word, and the soldiers in the back row stood forward without making a sound to make up for the gap in the queue. The officers called the order: "Rise the shield!" Suddenly, the shield players raised their shields to the sky to cover them. Looking from above, the front row of the entire Wei army camp showed a metal reflection, as if they had suddenly had a metal roof. Suddenly, the Jianghuai archers' arrows shot the shield wall twitching, but they could not cause any damage.

"Brothers, for the sake of King Zheng!" Wang Bin, the general in front of the 30,000 Jianghuai platoon soldiers in the front line of the Jianghuai Army, shouted loudly.

"Kill!" The lance soldiers roared like thunder and launched a charge. They ran forward neatly with 256 people as a small lance infantry formation, and rushed towards the enemy formation with a surging momentum of surging seas. The blue armored crowd rushed like waves, expanding, and shouting and killing sounds were earth-shaking. Countless small infantry formations formed a huge trapezoidal infantry formation, like a huge hammer hitting the head of the Wei army, with amazing momentum.

Facing the Jianghuai Army that was surging like blue waves, countless Wei troops wearing red armored battle robes stood firm like a hard wall made of iron.

When the Jianghuai Army, like waves, rushed to the front of the Wei army formation fifty steps, Li Mi, who was watching the battle in the high tower car in the central army formation, waved his hand, and the drums and horns behind him roared together, and a row of eight flag bearers waved the flags vigorously.

The commanders in the 30,000 archers square array divided into ten arrays immediately received the order, and waved his hand hard and shouted, "Shoot the arrow!"

The first row of bows and arrows stood up and shot arrows. The dense rain of arrows hit the array of the Jianghuai Army like a heavy rain hitting the Jianghuai Army. At this distance, the damage caused was very terrifying. A shocking noise, "Ah, ah..." screams continued, and the hundreds of warriors who rushed to the front fell halfway. The successors rushed forward bravely, but at this time the first row of archers of the demon clan had already squatted down and rolled their bows and arrows. The second row of archers started shooting again. Another terrible metal storm was involved in the middle of the Jianghuai Army, followed by the third row and the fourth row... and suffered heavy casualties.

However, at this time, the Jianghuai Army also showed its powerful combat power. The formation that was originally gradually dispersed during the charge did not collapse after being hit hard, but quickly closed. The trapezoidal infantry formation quickly formed a half-month formation. The lance-shaped soldiers raised the round shield in their hands with their left hands, and protected each other with the shields in their left and right companions. They quickly formed a huge metal shield formation in the rain of arrows of the Wei army.

The tens of thousands of Jianghuai light infantry who had already charged forward quickly followed the shield wall formation made by the infantrymen like water under the cover of the shield infantrymen.

"Ho! Hoho! Hoho!"

Like a turtle-shaped infantry like a turtle turtle huddle that had been turtle-shed into the shell, suddenly began to sound a series of horrors from the formation after forming a half-moon formation. As the sound continued to gather, the shouts of the infantry became more and more neat.

The war drum behind the formation sounded rhythmic drum beats, which gradually combined with the shouts of the Jianghuai slingers. Amid the drum beats and shouts, the rhythm of the 30,000 slingers and infantry gradually unified.

"Huh!"

With a neat shout that rose up in the sky, the half-moon-shaped shield array shining with metallic light suddenly bloomed like thousands of flowers, piercing out thousands of long spears from between the shields and advancing again towards the Wei army's front formation.
