Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

The 438th chapter quarrying battle (7)

"For the people of the world!" A high-pitched voice shouted.

Another voice shouted: "Fight for Marshal Guo!" An overwhelming shout came from the front: "Kill! Kill..."

Yao Erniu's eyes widened, watching the cavalry of the Zhou army rushing straight towards the opposing camp, the sound of horseshoes rumbled loudly in the field, as if magma was rushing in the ground. Yao Erniu never thought about why the people of the world, he only knew that there were ten mouths to eat at home... But at this moment, the excited atmosphere was affecting him, and under the mentality of following the crowd, he suddenly felt that he was very tall at this moment, and the blood was rushing into his head.

The group of cavalry soldiers who rushed up impatiently seemed to be in charge of the crane and horse army, with Shi Yanchao leading the way. Like Guo Shao, Li Chuyun, Shi Yanchao, and Yang Biao, the upper-level generals of the Forbidden Army, ordinary soldiers also know their names.

Yao Erniu's Third Army of the Huben Army was originally infantry, but now has horses, called mounted infantry. They stopped a few hundred steps away, and the team was a bit chaotic during the march, and the generals were yelling and cursing to gather their troops to straighten out their ranks.

"There is only one male in the family, go to the back!" Zhang Jiankui yelled in a rough voice as soon as he rode back here, "The families who died in battle have pensions, and every year the living brothers will burn paper for you."

Yao Erniu patted his horse and wanted to follow the soldiers who left the front line to the back, but Zhang Jiankui happened to spot him. Zhang Jiankui said coldly: "Yao Er, there is only one male in your family?"

Zhang Jiankui was the commander, with 500 people under his command, Yao Erniu was more unlucky and happened to be recognized by the commander. Yao Erniu was questioned by name, which immediately attracted contemptuous and mocking looks from the surrounding soldiers, and Zhang Jiankui's expression was also extremely unfriendly. His face turned red immediately, and he felt very ashamed in his heart, so he hurried back to his original position in front of him without thinking about it.

He didn't dare to talk about his family's situation. Forbidden army warriors are in the business of killing people. He admires the strong, and he will be disgusted by pretending to be pitiful. Since there is only Yao Erniu, a young and strong member of the whole family, why do they work hard in the imperial army? But if he doesn't do it, Yao Erniu really can't think of what to do to support so many people.

At this moment, the cavalry soldiers from the rear of the Nantang Army in the north came up to the flanks for reinforcements. When Yao Erniu looked over, he saw many enemy cavalry soldiers rushing out from the left.

A horse galloped over, it was Zhang Jiankui's personal soldiers, and shouted: "General Dong orders, after the first commander in front is dispatched, the second commander Zhang Jiankui will immediately follow up and fight according to the original tactics!"

Zhang Jiankui turned his head and shouted: "Get ready!"

Zhao Kun, the top ten general, said: "Get the throwing spear first, listen to the superior's advice and change weapons, and ride without being told to get off the horse." Yao Erniu quickly took a short wooden throwing spear from his back, and prepared it like everyone else. He has been trained countless times during these processes, and he is very proficient.

Zhang Jiankui's voice said again: "The singular command is to block the reinforcements from the left; we are going straight forward to coordinate with the forward's rear flank. Remember it all! If you don't understand, follow your respective generals. As long as you don't run away, you won't break the military law! Ten generals are dead, and the deputy general will immediately lead the ten generals temporarily. Everyone obeys the military orders of the highest-ranking generals."

While speaking, the group of people in front had already started to run forward. So Yao Erniu followed the army and walked forward together, first walking slowly, and gradually galloping.

The roar of horseshoes, shouts, and the sound of killing in the distance, the noise in my ears was louder than going to the market. Yao Erniu was on the right side of the first row, and in the center of the first row was the military envoy of Bendu who took the lead in charging. He looked back, and saw an embroidered tiger flag in the middle, with the commander's serial number on it. The horse team behind maintained their speed and ran together. The people in front did not dare to stop, so they could only run forward.

Sure enough, after a while, the first commander in front turned around and turned to the left. Yao Erniu and others became the frontmost troops, and rushed straight to the flank of the enemy camp without stopping. There are no drums on my side. The drums in the Nantang military camp are rumbling, and the rapid drumbeats seem to be the prelude before the killing.

Yao Erniu looked around and saw that the middle of the enemy army in front had been pierced, and Shi Yanchao's striker went straight into the enemy's formation; but the Southern Tang army did not collapse, and the entire long flank infantry was still standing still.

Rows of Southern Tang army infantry were holding long spears, and the densely packed spears made them look like they had thorns all over their bodies. There are still some ballistas ahead! At this moment, he heard "bang bang..." several times, and a thick crossbow flew from two to three hundred steps away. Yao Erniu watched a black shadow fly towards him, his mind went blank.

"Ah!" With a scream, Yao Erniu immediately turned his head to look, and saw blood droplets flying in the air, and a crossbow bolt as thick as an arm hit the chest of the soldier next to him. Even the plate armor couldn't stop the heavy crossbow. The man fell straight off the horse and was trampled by the hooves behind him. He didn't even make any sound, and the empty-backed horse was still running with the cavalry.

Yao Erniu felt a tightness in his chest and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Standing at the forefront, facing the sharply armored enemy soldiers, there was no barrier in between. He only felt that his hands were weak, and the sackcloth wrapped around his palms was soaked with sweat. At this moment, he was a little dazed, unable to think of anything, only the instinctive reaction he was most familiar with, tightly holding the throwing gun in his hand.

"Come on! The strong live, the weak die!" Zhang Jiankui's voice shouted. "Drive...drive..." Shouts rang out from all around, even trembling in the shouts, people were using shouts to counteract the fear in their hearts. Yao Erniu had only joined the Forbidden Army a few months ago, but even the old soldiers around him would be nervous and fearful when they rushed to the front. The war horse accelerated again, and everyone galloped forward as if they were dying.

During the accelerated sprint, the surrounding scene seemed to be blurred, and the noise seemed to fade away, leaving only the roar of the approaching enemy troops and war horses!

"Papapa..." Black shadows like raindrops filled the entire sky.

At this moment, time seemed to fly by, and the wrinkled face of the old lady and the blush on the cousin's face when he ran away at the alley flashed before his eyes one by one. Yao Erniu's left hand tightly grasped the purse...the only thing that made him feel at home. If he died in this foreign land, at least one thing would accompany him to bury him. Yao Erniu was usually quite dull, but at this moment the deepest part of his heart was aroused, he felt that he originally missed his family very, very much.

"Ding!" Yao Erniu felt a slight weight on his shoulders, and quickly turned his head to see that the shoulder armor was intact, so he breathed a sigh of relief. And the tragic neighing of the nearby war horses was tearing the eardrums, and the soldiers shouted and fell off the horses.

The Huben army cavalry is equipped with a large number of plate lock armor, and the arrows thrown from this kind of fire are almost useless to them. But the horses are not so well protected, and there are not so many armors to protect the horses. The main breed of war horses of the imperial army cannot withstand the charge of too heavy armor. The horses are newly equipped with paper armor, which is made of paper tendons wrapped in starched hard cloth, which is lighter but weaker in protection, and the horse's legs cannot be protected. At this time, a large area was covered by bows and arrows, and the horses lost a lot.

In the wet field, there is a layer of white mist on the ground, and there is no dust. Yao Erniu and the others had only one throwing spear in their hands, so they could only bite the bullet and charge against the rain of arrows. His eyes were wide open. At this moment, there was nothing he could do about the status quo. Life and death depended on luck.

Fortunately, the cavalry charged very fast, and the Southern Tang infantry had only one chance to fire a volley, and the front row of the Zhou army rushed within dozens of steps!

The face-to-face fight is about to begin. Two rows of long guns are in front of them, and even the eyes, noses and expressions of the soldiers on the other side can be seen clearly. The soldiers of the Southern Tang Army are also dumbfounded and nervous.

"Keep lined up and prepare to throw your guns..." The military envoy (dutou) in the center held up a long spear, and the red tassel on the tip of the gun was particularly eye-catching.

Yao Erniu gritted his teeth when he heard his chest "Boom, boom..." like a drum beating. "Ah..." Yao Erniu finally cried out, shouting together with the surrounding soldiers. No matter whether Yao Erniu is willing to be brave or not, he can't stop, charging at such a high speed, if he stops, he will be hit by the horsemen behind him.

A voice shouted: "Throw! Draw the knife!"

Fortunately, the superior shouted, otherwise Yao Erniu really didn't know what to do at this time. He and a group of men who raised their spears hurled towards the queue of about twenty steps ahead, and many spears were thrown upwards above their heads.

Yao Erniu didn't know if he hit the shot, anyway, the row of Southern Tang soldiers in front fell many people, and many fell to the ground in depth. It's getting closer! He threw the javelin, immediately drew the saber from his back, was led by the horses, and surrounded by the horses, he slammed into the enemy group.

"Ah!" In an instant, a soldier brother who rushed to the center first was pierced through the abdomen by a spear. The speed of the sprint was too fast, and he hit the spear and was pierced through the armor by his own impact. The spearman of the Southern Tang Army that Yao Erniu was facing was killed by throwing a spear just now. Yao Erniu's horse just inserted through the gap. He swung his saber and slashed at the right side. The horses slowed down in the crowd. Yao Erniu saw the military generals in the center wielding their long spears to stab and pick quickly, and they were fighting desperately.

Yao Erniu saw two soldiers of the Southern Tang Army on the right stabbing his brother on the horse with their spears, he didn't think much about it, and when he rushed over, he slashed sideways, blood spattered all over his body immediately. He only felt his throat wriggling|moving, but other than that, he really didn't feel much, his mind was stiff.

The arrows above the head were still flying randomly, the bowstring was crackling, and there were people all around. The enemy infantry in the depths were throwing bows and arrows, attacking the horses behind the Zhou army. Zhou Jun was also throwing his spear into the air. The people in front were in chaos, no matter the enemy or us, there was no formation at all, and they were killing each other randomly.

With a "kuang", Yao Erniu felt a slight pain in his chest. He was stabbed only to find that a long spear stabbed him on the left side, and the plate armor was not pierced, and was sunken. The soldier stared at Yao Erniu with wide eyes, probably surprised that he didn't pierce him.

Yao Erniu swung his knife to open the tip of the gun, patted the horse over, the soldier turned and ran, two other Southern Tang soldiers squeezed over, one of them stabbed at the horse's shoulder, the horse took another two steps in pain, and suddenly knelt down on its front hooves, Yao Erniu was not good at riding, so he fell off the horse without paying attention.
