Feather arrows are not necessarily fatal to soldiers in armor, but those crossbows shot by crossbows and spears thrown by soldiers with tall and long arms are extremely harmful to people and horses.

Trippers almost all the cavalry rushing in front fell to the ground. The scattered cavalry who rushed over quickly turned into hedgehogs and fell to the ground.

The slowdown in speed is exchanged for the second round of spear throwing.

Both sides are veterans who have been in the battlefield for a long time. One side wants to slow down the opponent's impact speed, but the other side knows that after the cavalry slows down, they have no advantage over the infantry arranged in formation. They fall in front, but do not slow down the speed at all. Instead, they accelerate, lift the reins of the horse, fly directly from the body of the fallen companion in front, and then pounce on the square formation in front.

"List!" Jiang Shangyan roared.

A half-man-high shield stood up with a thud.

"shelf!"

A series of spears were mounted on the shield, and in front of the galloping horse, a forest of swords and guns was erected.

The running war horses had an instinctive fear of the shaky swords and guns. When they were still several steps away from these contradictions, they either ignored the cavalry's destruction and braked suddenly. The knight was thrown out by powerful inertia and flew towards the gun array in the air. Some war horses made a sharp turn and ran sideways against the gun array.

"Strike!" Jiang Shangyan's harsh shouting sounded throughout the audience.

Chu soldiers holding short swords drilled out from the gap between the shield, waved the short sword in their hands, and slashed the horse's legs.

The war horses fell to the ground wailingly, and the cavalry fell off their horses. Before they could get up, the short swords were already flashing with a cold light and passing through their throats.

"Run!" Two long swords raised high and slashed left and right, reflecting the sunlight, and two rays of light flashed in the air.

The shield soldiers in the front row carried heavy shields and moved forward slowly. The shields they were carrying were not the self-defense shields used by ordinary soldiers, but heavy shields specifically for cavalry to rush forward. The shield surface was covered with bright spikes, and each shield weighed dozens of kilograms. It was impossible to lift it with one hand, without a single hand. Of course, you can't run with such heavy shields.

They don't need to run now. The heavy shield is moving forward, and the spears on their heads are also moving. Between the shields, the infantry holding short swords, and the small shields are flexibly interspersed.

What they have to do at this time is to narrow the distance with the cavalry, so that the opponent's speed is simply unable to be exerted.

The gun forest moved slowly, and the short sword soldiers waved the short swords in their hands without hesitation, slashing all the living creatures struggling on the ground one by one, whether it was a wounded horse or a wounded soldier.

The cavalry attack not only did not shake the opponent's lineup, but the opponent approached step by step. Chen Ci in the distance took a breath. He had also fought with the Qin people. Although the Qin people fought fiercely, they did not have the excellent equipment of the enemy in front of him, so he did not feel as deep as he is now.

"Zhihua, lead three thousand people to bypass the left wing, Jinhua, lead three thousand people to bypass the right wing, I attack from the front and attack from three sides." Chen Ci said sternly.

"As for order!" The two sons immediately ran out to the left and right wings, and ordered the flag to roam. The two troops separated from the large army and circled towards the left and right wings.

The sound of drums suddenly changed, and Chen Ci's cavalry no longer entangled with his opponents, but ran to the left and right wings, bypassing the wings of Baoqing Camp, and ran straight to their rear. They wanted to attack around the rear of Baoqing Camp.

Seeing that he was about to be surrounded, Jiang Shangyan not only did not panic, but instead laughed.

"Change the formation, stand firm in all directions, hold on the spot, hold them!" Jiang Shangyan's two knives turned around, forming two halos in his hand. This was the effect he wanted.

"Old Chen, I'm not fighting alone. Come on, let your attack come more fiercely, and let you see the true majesty of our eastern border army in Chu!"

What Jiang Shangyan said was not fighting alone, because there was another army on his flank, that is, Lufeng's miner's battalion.

This is the first time that Lufeng's miners' camp has been on the battlefield. It is obviously an impossible task to withstand several times the enemy's attacks head-on, so it can only be taken care of by the Baoqing camp, which has been through the battlefield for a long time. Of course, Jiang Shangyan also has this mental preparation. When they join the Taiping Army, they naturally have to be conscious of acting as the tip of the knife.

Five thousand Chu troops formed a square formation to deal with attacks from four directions, but Jiang Shangyan was not anxious and stared at Chen Ci's central army banner in the distance. He hoped to attract the last bargaining chips in the other party, so that when the miners' camp appeared on the battlefield, he could hit him with one blow.

Although in this way, his Baoqing camp would bear greater losses, but he defeated the enemy in front of him in the shortest time and thus won the battle.

This ambush on the battlefield took advantage of the asymmetry of the two sides' intelligence. The Taiping Army knew Chen Ci's movements very clearly, but Chen Ci knew nothing about the enemy in front of him, and there was no way to find out how many soldiers the other party had. When his scout discovered the scout of Baoqing Camp, although he also launched a horizontal search, he did not complete a thorough search of the battlefield under the entanglement of the other party, and he was not prepared for the fatal killing moves of the other party hidden on one side.

Chen Ci left the reserve team, which was just a habitual move by a veteran who had been through the battlefield. When the formation of Baoqing Camp began to loosen and had a collapsed direction, it was when he used the reserve team.

In a dense forest that had been spread several miles away from the battlefield, the soldiers of the three thousand miners' battalions sat on the ground. Lu Feng's face was anxious and excited. He kept standing up and sitting down, walking around among the soldiers, staring at the expressions on the faces of each soldier. Seeing the nervousness, he pretended to be relaxed and patting the other person's shoulders, and comforted him a few words. In fact, he was not nervous inside.

This is how he really led the first battalion of soldiers to the battlefield.

His deputy general Yang Zhi seemed to be sitting calmly under a tree, holding a small sword intently and cutting the wooden blocks in his hand, but as long as he looked at the wooden blocks in his hand that were completely cut into shape by him, he could see that his heart was not calm either.

Two battlefield Chu Ge, with a group of battlefield rookies, had to do something that would decide the outcome of a battle.

Scouts lurking on the battlefield were returning the battlefield situation, who were observing from afar.

"Baoqing Camp blocked the attack of the cavalry."

"Baoqing Camp has begun to fight back."

"The enemy surrounded Baoqing Camp from all sides, and Baoqing Camp was in control."

"The enemy's offensive is fierce, and Baoqing Camp is struggling to support it."

"The formation of Baoqing Camp has shrunk a circle and has become much smaller."

After hearing the reward of the scout who came back last, Lu Feng could no longer stand up, "How are the casualties in Baoqing Camp?"

"It's too far away and I don't see clearly, but I estimate that the casualties are at least a thousand people." The scout hesitated, "They concentrated the wounded and dead in the center of the four-meter formation, and there seemed to be a lot."

"Have Chen Ci's reserve team moved?" Lu Feng asked anxiously.

"Not yet!" the scout shook his head.

Yang Zhi finally threw away the wooden blocks that were shaved by him, stood up, and walked to Lu Feng: "Jiang Shangyan Ke said that we will not attack until Chen Ci moved his reserve team. I think we have to do what he said, so let's wait!"

Lu Feng looked at Yang Zhi in a flash, which made Yang Zhi inexplicably: "General Lu, why are you looking at me like this?"

"General Yang, the battlefield situation is ever-changing, how can it be restricted? Maybe Jiang Shangyan misjudged his strength, or maybe he underestimated the opponent's combat effectiveness. Haven't you heard that he has suffered thousands of casualties? The military book said that if more than one-third of the casualties are killed or killed, a unit will lose its combat effectiveness, and half of the casualties will be killed. This unit will basically collapse. I think we should attack."

"General Lu, don't read the script with me." Yang Zhi laughed and said, "The military strategy books I have read are many times more than you. Not only military books, but I have also read many generals' experiences on the battlefield. I'm afraid you won't see these things. I think Jiang Shangyan is a long-time general on the battlefield. What he said must make sense."

"General Yang, I know you hate Chu State and Chu people, but now we are all in the same group!" Lu Feng scratched his head, remembering Yang Zhi's life experience, he was really not his opponent when he dropped his bag of books. But Yang Zhi opposed him to sending troops at this moment, and he was really selfish. Anyway, this person didn't have much respect for General Qin, and he always said to Qin Feng in private.

Although Yang Zhi is his deputy general, he has a special status and much higher martial arts skills than himself. Lu Feng is usually polite to him.

Hearing Lu Feng say this, Yang Zhi's face suddenly changed, "General Lu, what do you mean?"

"I just want to say that the overall situation should be the most important thing now. General Yang, I have no malice. You have always known that I have always regarded you as a brother." Lu Feng spread his hands.

Yang Zhi was furious: "Okay, since you say that, I have nothing to say. You are the chief general. If you want to send troops, I will be ordered to come and charge in front of you to see if I have selfish intentions."

After saying this angrily, Yang Zhi turned around and left, while Lu Feng turned around and waved his hand, looked at the Three Thousand Miners' Battalion sitting on the ground, and shouted loudly: "The whole army attacked."

On the battlefield, the four-sided lineup has indeed shrunk a circle, and Jiang Shangyan has also been on the battlefield several times to rescue the enemy, but he knew in his heart that the four-sided lineup, which seemed to be full of dangers, would be more stable every time it contracted. Although there were many casualties, it was not a matter of Chen Ci's intention to break through his formation. As long as his reserve team was consumed, he would be put into the battlefield. This battle would be more than half.

There were roaring sounds coming from afar. Jiang Shangyan looked up in horror. Then he saw a figure running towards here as if a galloping horse, carrying a large iron sword. With such a fast speed and such a conspicuous sword, who was not Yang Zhi from the miner's camp?

This guy didn't act with the troops, but instead dispatched his troops alone and threw them far behind him. When it was completely clear in Jiang Shangyan's eyes, the banner of the miner's camp had just emerged.

"Yang Zhi, your mother!" Jiang Shangyan was so angry that she smoked her seven orifices. She inserted the knife in her hand into the ground, and started to curse.
Chapter completed!
