Chapter 486 Purgatory (2)
Chapter 486 Purgatory (Part 2)
The Song army soldiers had already started all over the line. The shouts of tens of thousands of people filled the bloody battlefield. Sima Guang wanted to vomit, but he suddenly felt that it would be more comfortable to sit down with a stool at this time.
It really doesn't work, as long as you leave his current position, it will be a kind of pity for him.
At his feet, there was a Dangxiang man's body lying. The guy was obviously killed by a stone on the mountain. His whole body was placed in a big character, but his head was flattened and bloody, and his eyes rolled down not far away. Sima Guang always felt that the eyes seemed to be still looking at him.
Finally, the troops advanced a few steps forward, and he could get rid of the eyeball, but he didn't expect that there were more corpses in front of him.
There was half a corpse around him, only half of it, and the remaining half was unknown where it went. The palm of the corpse was stretched forward, and Sima Guang was very afraid that he would be caught by the palm.
He really didn't understand why the soldiers looked ahead, as if the corpses around him did not exist at all. Don't they feel disgusted?
At this time, Liu Ping's shout alarmed Sima Guang: "Intercept!"
Li Yuanhao was really unstoppable. He rushed around in the chaos, traveling around like entering a no-man's land, his fierce murderous aura was like a prairie fire gun. The square formations of the Dangxiang people cut by the Song army were actually rescued by him one by one.
In the blink of an eye, more than 2,000 people gathered and rushed towards the team of Song soldiers who had just arrived at the battlefield, trying to kill a way out and escape from the sky.
Li Yuanhao held up the bloody steel gun, and did not blew the horn, and looked back and shouted wildly: "Huh...huh..."
The Dangxiang cavalry were also grateful that Li Yuanhao did not leave first but came back to rescue them. They used all their strength and held up their weapons to echo Li Yuanhao, shouting wildly: "Huh...huh..."
That was the most primitive roar of the Dangxiang people. More than two thousand people shouted out with the last passionate blood in their chests, which shocked the earth and penetrated the sky. With the rumbling war drums of the Song army, it seemed that they really shook the sky. The dazzling sun was covered by a dark cloud.
"Kill!" Li Yuanhao held the gun with both hands, raised it over the top, and rushed over with the Dangxiang people.
Sima Guang gasped heavily, his heart beating violently, and the strong smell of blood almost made him unable to breathe.
He couldn't tell the feeling in his heart. He was very depressed and needed to explode!
Liu Ping was calmly commanding, and his voice clearly came into Sima Guang's ears: "Dense arrays are ready to attack."
A shield wall was erected on the front of the attack by the Dangxiang people, and the giant shield was raised up diagonally. Some spearmen inserted their spears to the ground, mounted the shield, and the spears were placed side by side on the shield. The other part extended the spearhead and waited for the other horse to hit him.
The sword hands were ambushed behind the giant shield and spearmen, ready to attack at any time and kill the enemy's war horses and soldiers.
"Bridge!" Geng Tiande shouted loudly.
Dangxiang soldiers rushed over under the leadership of Li Yuanhao.
"put……"
For a moment, the sky was full of arrows, and the whistling of the torn air was creepy. The sweat fell on Sima Guang's forehead, not because of the pain, but because of his nervousness, excitement, fear, and at a loss!
Screams and wails followed by violent collisions! The Dangxiang people used their flesh and blood to hit the Song army's formation, one fell down and the other, and the two fell down and there were still people behind them!
Sima Guang didn't understand, is life worthless like this? Can't you surrender?
Crash, hit madly and fiercely.
On the battlefield, the neighing sounds of war horses, the roars of soldiers, the dull sound of spears poking into war horses, and the sound of gold and iron clashing.
But after a moment, the huge shield of the Song army finally collapsed, and a more tragic hand-to-hand combat began!
The war horses jumped high, either pierced by a hook and sickle, or fell backwards. The Song soldiers were knocked away by the war horses or were crushed to death, but once there was a gap, someone would immediately make up for it. Once the enemy broke through, the swords, axes, archers and crossbow soldiers behind would immediately rush up, and all of them would be killed, whether they were the enemy's war horses or soldiers.
The Song army did not retreat, the Dangxiang people rushed forward, and both sides were destined to leave corpses in the ground.
Li Yuanhao was anxious. The Song army behind him was getting closer and closer, but the road in front of him was still not opened! Seeing the battle formation of the Dangxiang people continued to shrink, the Dangxiang people could not gain any advantage in the hand-to-hand combat.
The Song army was too tenacious! Many frontal defensive soldiers of the phalanx were almost wiped out, and the crossbowmen in the formation immediately filled in, swearing to block the enemy to ensure the integrity of the phalanx. There was even one Song army who was fighting around. He was still standing there with a spear, waiting for the charge of the Dangxiang people to submerge him.
Geng Tiande held a knife in one hand, covered in blood, and ran around the frontier of the square like a madman. He killed from east to west, and from west to east, and never stopped. When he saw the Dangxiang people, he chopped and shouted, "You can't let the enemy go! Kill them, kill them!"
Life or death, I really forgot at this time. As long as I can still use one more knife, I will kill another one until I can't move and I'll be killed by others.
I forgot about life and death, and even more so why I fought, the country, nation, family, and all went to her mother! Continuing to fight was to kill the opponents, they were soldiers, this was the battlefield, and they had to decide the outcome. It was that simple.
Liang Huaiji raised his duckling's voice and shouted loudly. No one heard what he was shouting, not even himself, but he just wanted to shout it out.
He cut the neck of a Dangxiang man opposite him. He thought it was difficult to kill someone, but now he knew that he could just use some strength to cut the other person's neck.
At this moment, he suddenly found a hint of fear and a hint of prayer in his opponent's eyes. This not only did not make his subordinates show mercy, but instead made his heart heavier. There was only one way to release this heaviness, which was to make the eyes disappear!
His knife blew up!
A feather arrow was inserted into Liang Huaiji's shoulder, causing him to fall to the ground. Before he could get up, a spear was stabbed at him! Liang Huaiji rolled smoothly and avoided the shot. The opponent had no chance to shoot a second shot, and Wu Ming jumped up and chopped the man's head down with one knife.
His shoulder hurts so much, but Wu Ming still kicks him: "Get up and command your team to kill!"
Liang Huaiji struggled to get up and continued to move forward.
The Song army's encirclement slowly closed, and Li Yuanhao's soldiers fell to the ground one by one, but the defense line on the front of the Song army was getting weaker and weaker.
It’s not that the Song army was not trying their best, but Li Yuanhao was too fierce. No matter what terrain was in the field, it was difficult to encircle and annihilate Li Yuanhao’s 5,000 cavalry according to the current military strength of the Song army.
"Kill!" Li Yuanhao shot a Song army that had already lit the thunder in his palm, and then he picked the thunder in his palm forward with a spear. The Song army in front suddenly only tried to dodge, and he finally killed a gap.
The eight hundred *** cavalry who were still alive were ecstatic and did not care about fighting with the Song army anymore, and a stream of water surged out of the gap.
Liu Ping sighed secretly, he knew that he could not keep Li Yuanhao anymore.
Li Yuanhao, who had just rushed out of the encirclement, suddenly saw Sima Guang riding on the horse in a daze, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He didn't know that Chen Yuan had changed the system of the Song Dynasty's military supervision system. In his opinion, these civil officials either did not go to the battlefield, but would definitely be high-ranking officials if they wanted to go to the battlefield!
At that moment, a secret arrow was set up and shot towards Sima Guang with a shout.
Sima Guang was still stunned, but a soldier next to him was really watching. He said that this kid reacted very quickly. He knew that a literati like Sima Guang would be too late if he could remind him and react. Without saying a word, he shot Sima Guang's horse's butt.
Jianma suffered a pain, and his whole body stood up with a cry of sorrow, throwing Sima Guang to the ground.
After Sima Guang got up, he didn't know what happened. Until he saw the strong horse being shot into the chest with an arrow, he realized that he had almost become the last person to die in the Song army in this battle. He was suddenly very nervous.
After coming back to his senses, he looked back at the soldier with blood on the gun head, and clasped his fists in a regular manner: "Thank you."
The soldier smiled honestly and said nothing.
As the Dangxiang soldiers fled in a hurry, the shouts just now gradually subsided. After the injured soldiers were carried away, the entire General Ridge fell into silence again. This made Sima Guang, who was on the battlefield for the first time, feel that everything that happened just seemed like a dream!
"Sima Supervisor, this is the result of the battle I just counted. Please review it."
Liu Ping handed a piece of paper with the battle data of both sides to Sima Guang. His respectful appearance was the usual posture of the generals of the Song Dynasty in front of civil officials.
Sima Guang looked at Liu Ping, he was surprised where Liu Ping was so calm and brave that he had just gone?
After taking the battle report, Sima Guang took a rough look. The Song army killed 1,364 people, the wounded were counted, and the Dangxiang army was captured 315 people, and as for how many were killed, it was counted. The rough estimate should be around 3,000 people.
Liu Ping said: "We fought against Li Yuanhao's elite in this battle. The result of this battle was very good. Unfortunately, Li Yuanhao ran away. But Sima Supervisor was relieved. We still had a few interceptions later. It was not easy for Li Yuanhao to go back."
There were only a few hundred people left by Li Yuanhao, and there were three *** lines behind the Song army. Liu Ping believed that even if Li Yuanhao could run back to Xingqing Mansion, he would only have half his life left.
Sima Guang's mind was settled now, and he bowed to Liu Ping: "The general has done his best. I can see it clearly below. Don't worry, I will explain the battle clearly in my memorial to the emperor and ask for merits."
This was the first time he spoke to Liu Ping so politely, because Sima Guang now felt that he was not as good as these martial artists. At least when the other party raised the knife, these martial artists dared to wave the sword to meet him, but he did not have the courage.
He had always believed that the literati's tricks were enough to win any war, but when he went to the battlefield, he realized that if it were not for the courage of these warriors, there would be no place to perform any tricks.
Liu Ping smiled: "Thank you, Sima Supervisor."
When they ended here, Li Yuanhao had just escaped from the General Ridge. Before he could calm down, he heard a rapid sound of horse hooves on the right. A team of cavalrymen had more than 2,000 people coming from his flanks.
Li Yuanhao was shocked. He is now a defeated army. Not only is he not morale or exhausted, but he can fight?
However, Li Yuanshu said loyally: "Long live, I will cut off the back of you!"
Li Yuanhao was very loyal: "No, let's go together if you want to leave! Everyone rushed with me. Not far ahead was Lord Wu Hao's five hundred horses, we could leave!"
He saw it clearly. The team that came was the rebels under Shan Yu Fuguang. If he were to behave in daily life, he would not take it seriously, but today is different. The emperor is in trouble today!
After a fight, although nearly half of the troops were lost, Li Yuanhao's courage once again played a decisive role. He led more than 300 cavalry out of the mountain to encounter the interception of Fu Guang's troops.
When we arrived at the meeting place we had discussed with Wu Hao, we thought we could breathe a sigh of relief, but we found that it was not Wu Hao who was waiting there, but Yang Wenguang!
Yang Wenguang stood with a gun with a smile on his face: "Li Yuanhao! You finally didn't disappoint me. I've been waiting for a long time!"
Everything he said was abolished, and another battle was another battle. This was no longer a fight, but Yang Wenguang led the Song cavalry to chase and kill him. Dangxiang people relied on their own horsemanship to escape.
Yang Wenguang felt quite satisfied after chasing for more than ten miles. Most of the war horses of the Dangxiang people were unable to escape because of their serious physical overdraw. Only Li Yuanhao's dozen generals relied on their better horses and delayed the time with the soldiers behind them, and then escaped.
After running not long, another army blocked the road ahead, Li Yuanhao's heart was in a state of turmoil!
Chapter completed!
