Rebirth of the First Emperor

Chapter 290: The Battle of the Unnamed River (1)

,

By the spn Weiming River, the water is shining brightly. It has not yet entered May, but the sultry heat of summer makes everyone breathless.

The ranger soldiers leaning on the river greedily enjoyed the coolness from the river. At noon, Wan Sheng finally arrived late with his army, and there were only less than 7,000 people left in the 10,000-strong army.

"Across the way is Ying Zheng, the magistrate of Huxiang County!"

The Tianshi Sect's eight thousand troops were crowded on the other side of the Weiming River without any rules and order. Wan Sheng rode a red BMW across the river and looked at Ying Zheng from a distance. Although he could tell at a glance that Ying Zheng was not a simple person, But I still asked knowingly.

Ying Zheng looked at the 8,000 Celestial Masters' army, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Grand Governor, this county has been waiting for you again for a long time!" [

Comparing the three hundred ranger pro-army on Ying Zheng's side with the Celestial Master's army, the roles can actually be swapped. Rangers have always had discipline, while sergeants have always valued discipline. The Celestial Master's sergeants are like rangers, while the three hundred ranger pro-army The army is more like a sergeant.

Wan Sheng didn't come here just to talk to Ying Zheng. In addition, there were so many soldiers and horses here with great momentum, and he felt a little arrogant. When he saw Ying Zheng leading three hundred people to occupy the river bank with the intention of using his arms as a chariot, he couldn't help but sneer and said: "This governor is leading the army. Having come all the way, Magistrate Ying, why don’t you hand over Yixin, Huxiang and other cities so that the governor can go to the city and take a rest!”

Ying Zheng shook his head, stretched his hand forward, pointed at the river, and said loudly: "It is not impossible for the Governor to want Yixin, but the Weiming River has just experienced a flood, and the bridge has been washed away. If the Governor When soldiers and horses cross the river, this county will naturally offer Yixin!"

Wan Sheng looked at the river surface. Indeed, according to the feedback from the scouts, a nearby bridge was gone. However, it was definitely not destroyed by water as Ying Zheng said, but was destroyed by Ying Zheng's orders. dropped.

"You dare to show off your trivial skills again. Well, today the Governor of Japan will convince you!"

Wan Sheng couldn't help but feel angry when he looked at Ying Zheng's plain expression. In his mind, maybe Ying Zheng was just a clever person at best, and it seemed that there was a lot of luck involved in being able to win CreditEase.

Currently, Ying Zheng is guarding the river. Wan Sheng's first impression is that he is the kind of fool who thinks he is guarding an unbreakable natural barrier. A river no more than ten meters wide and two meters deep with a gentle flow wants to stop the eight thousand army. Attack, isn't this just wishful thinking?

"Today, I will show you what it means to have an ant shake a tree, and to work in vain!"

Wan Sheng sneered in his heart, laughing at Yingzheng's overestimation of his capabilities. As long as Yingzheng, Yixin, and the officers and soldiers of Huxiang and Hunan were killed, they would be at the head of the pack. In this way, it would be effortless to capture the city. , when he thought of this, Wan Sheng felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart. Even with eight thousand troops, Wan Sheng still missed the old life where the city could not be conquered if there were internal forces working together.

Therefore, Wan Sheng had only one thought in his mind: kill Ying Zheng.

"kill!"

Wan Sheng raised his big hand, and the 8,000 chaotic rebels behind him rushed forward. There were only 300 people in front, 8,000 against 300. With such an obvious gap, Tianshijiao's group of peasant soldiers naturally rushed forward very easily. , fighting against the wind is what these people like to do the most.

The depth of the Weiming River is only two meters. I don't know why today the Weiming River can actually see the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river clearly. With such a depth, Wan Sheng didn't bother to send anyone to build a bridge, and directly ordered the sergeant to cross the river.

"Plop, plop!"

Although the people of Qi are not good at water fighting, they are not landlubbers. There is no problem in crossing the river water that is at least two meters deep and not fast. So after Wan Sheng gave the order, the Weiming River made a popping sound, which was very similar to the one below. dumpling.

The Tianshijiao sergeants who entered the water even lost their formation. This group of soldiers was not a naval force. Some were scratching in the water, some were kicking blindly, and some were flapping their hands indiscriminately. Eight thousand people fell four or five times at once. Hundreds of people, the scene of splashing in the waves is absolutely spectacular.

In Ying Zheng's eyes, such a spectacular scene was just a fool's errand, something embarrassing.

"Form up a formation and attack the enemy!"

Dao Feng, Ying Zheng's bodyguard. Ever since the Ranger Troops became Ying Zheng's pro-army, Dao Feng has become a veritable leader of the pro-army. Maybe he can't stand the shameful performance of the Tianshi Sect rebels. So Dao Feng chose to attack.[

The 300 ranger soldiers who had been prepared for a long time quickly moved forward in groups of two towards the Weiming River. At some point, each person had a spear in his hand, with the spear point pointed forward, ready for battle.

Three hundred people guarded the river bank and immediately formed a long line of defense.

Ying Zheng stood behind the defense line formed by the rangers, looked directly at Wan Sheng, and said coldly: "The Heavenly Master teaches the rebels, the heavenly soldiers are coming, why don't you abandon your weapons and surrender quickly!"

Wan Sheng's words were very exciting. In addition to a bit of disdain, the look he looked at Ying Zheng also had a hint of sternness. Tianshijiao had caused trouble, but it was in compliance with God's will, not rebellion. Wan Sheng hated it the most. Even when others said he was rebellious, Ying Zheng's words caught Wan Sheng's feet.

The Weiming River is not wide. The first batch of Tianshijiao sergeants who entered the water were more than 480 people. They were the best swimmers in the whole army, so they almost reached the bank in a short time and stood in the river wet. , planning to quickly charge to the shore, they also knew that being in the water would greatly limit their combat effectiveness.

The reason why Ying Zheng formed a formation by the Weiming River was to take advantage of this small Weiming River and its water flow.

The mission of the three hundred ranger soldiers was to prevent the enemy troops from landing. Therefore, as soon as the Tianshijiao sergeants approached, the ranger soldiers of each group took action one after another. The reason why the spears were chosen was because of their length.

Puff, puff, puff

The sound of a sharp blade entering the body. Although the river is not urgent, there is some fetters after all, and this fetter is fatal. Although the weapons of the ranger pro-army are all kinds, these people are all veterans who have been killed for a long time. , no matter how unfamiliar the weapon is, it can be quickly broken in, and all of this has become a reminder for the sergeants of the Heavenly Master.

More than 480 people died in the Weiming River. The river water instantly turned bright red. The slow water flow made the blood flow more dense, which greatly stimulated Wan Sheng's nerves.

"Kill, kill them all for me!"

Wan Sheng went crazy and pressed everyone up desperately.

Ying Zheng looked at Wan Sheng's crazy state, and the corner of his mouth curled up.

"Sir, the Bu County Lieutenant reported that he has led his army to wipe out the rebels, and is currently leading his army to move closer here!"

"Sir, the Ax Guards have also wiped out all the rebels and are moving closer here!"

With two pieces of good news in succession, the smile in Ying Zheng's eyes grew stronger. He was looking forward to Wan Sheng's expression when he learned that all his troops had been defeated.
