Win the Ding 1617

The front line of Laohekou is full of troops.

The troops and horses of Huige's Fifth Battalion marching mightily from the north opened up an extremely wide front, and the front line of Xianrendu, Longwang Town, Huopai Town, and Shuanggou Town was full of horse teams.In Zhangji Town, Shiqiao Town, Guyi Town, Huangji Town, and Sanhe Town, which are a little behind, the infantry of the Fifth Huige Battalion gathered here, ready to press down heavily after the cavalry succeeded.

According to Grace and others, if the cavalry was defeated, the infantry could still support the cavalry, and if something happened, the infantry would run slower than the cavalry.

In Huangquhe Town and Zhuji Town, tens of thousands of troops from Liu Zongmin and Wang Long lined up here.

Under the banner of Liu Zongmin, the chief whistler, Mr. Liu, touched his short mustache like a steel needle, grinned and sneered in the south direction: "I'm not afraid that Zuo Liangyu will come out, but I'm afraid that Zuo Liangyu will run away, and even more so." Worried that he will rely on Xiangyang City to hold on! Then our rebel army will fight a tough battle! Let the brothers fill up the Han River with their lives, it is okay for us brothers who broke into the Cao family, I am afraid that Lao Huihui and Geli will not see each other. Will be willing to discount the capital!"

"Uncle Jiexuan, isn't everyone alive right now? Uncle Han Ju is also leading his troops to cut off the retreat of the old left soldier. As long as he cuts off his retreat, Master Zuotu will be a dog!"

Wang Long handed Liu Zongmin a kettle wrapped in cotton, which was filled with warm tea. "The battle is imminent, don't dare to invite Uncle Jiexuan to drink, let's have a sip of hot tea!"

"Your boy is the same as your uncle. You will never wrong yourself!"

Liu Zongmin took the water bottle that Wang Long handed over, and teased Wang Long in his mouth, but his eyes were full of the elders' love for the young people who are willing to make progress.

"You and Xiao Huzi are worshiping brothers, and you are the second generation of our Chuangcao family. Our old Liu naturally treats you as his own nephew. This battle was a good one. Go back to you Uncle Jiexuan will definitely recommend you in front of your uncle and the Generalissimo!"

"Uncle Jiexuan, it's not like we're boasting. When we were in Zhuxian Town, Lao Zuo's army was much stronger than it is now, right? At that time, his army couldn't resist beating. What's more, these troops who come here now?" Wang Long curled his lips. , very disapproving.

"Although soldiers and horses are not powerful in combat, armor and weapons are good. For more than half a year, Zuo Liangyu has controlled the upper reaches. Excessive taxation and extensive search have almost wiped out the arsenals of Xiangyang, Wuchang, Jiujiang and other places, and even purchased armaments on a large scale. .His inner battalion is all in high-quality iron armor. It is said that there are nearly ten thousand firecrackers and dozens of heavy artillery.”

"Uncle Jiexuan, no matter how good the weapon is, it still needs people to use it! Those good things are just collected by Zuotu for us!"

The two chatted pretending to be relaxed, but after all, this battle decided the fate of hundreds of thousands of people, no matter how much they looked down on Zuo Liangyu, they didn't dare to entrust it too much.The atmosphere became more and more depressing as the voices of the two gradually fell.

In a depressing atmosphere.I don't know how long it took, suddenly Liu Zongmin's black face tightened, and his thick eyebrows frowned. Amidst the faint sound of horns, drums, and cannons, a black line suddenly spread from the south of Xiangyang. Like a dyke, it is long and swaying, sweeping forward, wherever it goes.Not a blade of grass grows.

It was the troops from the foreign battalion under the Zuo Army who came in large numbers!

After the defeat of Zhuxian Town, Zuo Liangyu recruited soldiers and recruited horses and rebels everywhere in Xiangyang.However, there are no-name armed forces from all over the country.Regardless of whether it is a group training, a copycat, or a big or small bandit, he has set them all as foreign camps.Only the direct descendants of his father and son are listed as the inner camp.

All military pay, armor, equipment, food and grass supplies are biased towards the inner camp.Only after the outer battalion has made military exploits on the battlefield, or demonstrated its value when looting the people and slaughtering the good, can it be incorporated into the inner battalion.

The strong murderous aura made the Han River basin extremely stagnant and oppressive.On the vast land.The two huge camps on the north and south sides are slowly marching towards each other.

To the north was nearly [-] cavalry led by Ma Shouying and Ge Liyan He Yilong, and at least twice as many infantry behind them.Five men and horses lined up a very wide front, slowly moving forward in the summer sun.Swords and guns are like ears of wheat, swords and halberds are like firewood.Layers of flags, layers of armor, and layers of cavalry form a colorful ocean.

In the big formation, the banners of "Ma", "He", "Liu", and "Lin" are clearly divided.Although the question of whether to stay or go back to the Revolutionary Fifth Battalion is not as united as it was in Yingshan and Huoshan, but it is the common mind of the five generals to fight this battle well and show their own strength.

On the other side, there are more than [-] troops from the outer battalion of the Left Army. They even want to make meritorious service in this battle and become the inner battalion as soon as possible!

With the help of optical equipment such as glasses and binoculars, Ge Liyan He Yilong was able to see clearly the formation of the left army's outer camp that was rushing in from the opposite side.The seemingly deep and boundless sea of ​​people on the opposite side makes people feel no pressure.People say that "ten thousand soldiers are boundless", even if tens of thousands of soldiers are lined up in a dense line, they are also discharged for more than one mile. How far can 10,000+ people travel?Looking around, the depth has almost reached the limit of vision, it seems that there is only a sea of ​​human heads and flags in the whole world.

"No wonder, Zuo Liangyu is looting the state capital and slaughtering good people everywhere. He is a shitty general who does more fun than our brothers and these thieves, but the court has nothing to do with him. Not to mention, just It is these 10,000+ people piled there, enough to scare the emperor's children!"

"Old horse, let our children kill him for a while! Although they are all scraps of soldiers and horses gathered together, how can a pile of rotten wood gather a few catties for firewood?" Lin Chengcheng looked at the densely packed army formation on the opposite side, the valuable armor and weapons in the hands of the big and small leaders inside, and couldn't help but salivate.

The army formations on both sides are like two huge waves, getting closer and closer, two miles, one and a half miles, and finally the two sides are close to one mile. He kept roaring and shouting before the battle.The fine cavalry of Huige's Fifth Battalion even plundered within [-] paces of the left army's outer battalion formation, running around the formation, whistling and cursing.

Hong Chengchou once said: "In the past, the thieves avoided the soldiers and fled, but now they welcome the soldiers to face the enemy, ambushes from the left and right, and it is difficult to suppress and kill. The thieves all have fine horses, or straddle two horses, and the officers and soldiers take three steps. Seven, it is difficult to chase."

Since the Shaanxi refugee uprising, they have paid great attention to the cavalry.These rangers of Huige Fifth Battalion even straddled several horses, and wore eight-petal hats and iron pointed helmets on their heads.Wearing a waist armor, the armor leaf is exposed outside, but it is a Ming armor style, just like the crotch pierced by a small soldier from the Central Plains.However, the crotch is mostly made of cloth.They are iron armor, and some have added a breastplate on the outside. .

These elite cavalry look forward and look behind, suddenly far and near, they come at the whistle, and suddenly flee away.When rushing in, they either make a sharp roaring sound, which is heard by people; or they shoot arrows and firecrackers into the left army formation to disturb the army's morale.In addition to the horse bows on the horses, many people also have short fire guns behind their backs, and they are all excellent riders and archers.

As for Zuo Liangyu's foreign troops, most of them wore red-tasseled felt hats, mandarin duck battle jackets, crotch or waist armor, line transcripts, and hemp shoes.There are bright armor and bright armor.Or there are very few people with bright helmets and dark armors, and there are not many cavalry in the team. After all, in the mainland army of the Ming Dynasty, generally only cavalry have armor, that is, copper and iron helmets and long body armor. .Therefore, in the left army, anyone with armor, no matter what form of armor and helmet it is, is probably a role like an elite soldier.

but.Zuo Jun also has his own housekeeping skills.

"Lao Huihui, Ge Liyan, what are you showing off in front of Lao Tzu?"

Guo Tianxing Huideng, the former leader of the Shaanxi People's Army who was already the commander-in-chief in the left army, sneered and waved the command flag in his hand.

The old man came back to Ma Shouying, who was from Suide, Shaanxi.Because it is Huihui, there are quite a lot of barbarians and descendants in the camp, and they are also good at erratic tactics.The so-called good men are afraid of meeting their old neighbors. Regarding the tactics of the Fifth Huige Battalion, Prime Minister Hui Deng, who was also from the Shaanxi Civil Army, and Bai Gui, another general from the Ninth Battalion of Fangjun who was also from the same background, were quite different In order to be familiar, they used tactics such as "there are too many soldiers to run away. If there are few soldiers, they will meet the enemy. Before the officers and soldiers arrive, they will run away immediately", and they seldom fight head-on with the officers and soldiers.

"The commander-in-chief has orders! Line up and shoot!"

"The commander-in-chief has an order, line up and shoot!"

The cavalry messengers under Prime Minister Huideng rode their horses back and forth in their own formation, loudly conveying his orders to each battalion and post.

Zuo Liangyu naturally didn't bother to equip them with such messy troops as the Zuo Army's Outer Battalion. Most of them only had a spear in their hands, which was nothing more than a spearhead on a wooden stick!In terms of training, it is to take the Yang family's marksmanship that is popular in the Ming army, to fight in formation, to come and go, just a few moves, and there can't be too many requirements for them, to be able to stab forward, to be able to line up It's not bad.Of course, tens of thousands of people lined up a gun formation, just like a huge hedgehog spreading its spikes, which is quite spectacular.

In this way, the Rangers of Huige Fifth Battalion had no choice but to retreat to the formation, and the harassment was nothing but tigers eating hedgehogs.

"Old Hui Hui, I know that you have many elite soldiers and a strong foundation, but I just have more people than you!" Xiang Hui Deng sneered, and ordered the troops to move forward!

If he stays put and uses defense as an offense, Lao Huihui and others really can't do anything about him. If the cavalry wants to face the infantry spear formations waiting in full force in this kind of plain and hilly area, they will inevitably suffer huge casualties.This is something that Lao Huihui, Gregory and others do not want to see.However, if you don't intend to lose your capital, you have to mobilize the artillery to blast a hole.

When several generals were worrying about where to launch an attack, Prime Minister Huideng ordered the messy team of soldiers and horses from the outer battalion to take the initiative to attack!

"Heaven has a way, you don't go, hell has no door, you break in!"

Looking at the opposite army formation, there was a mess of whipping and cursing, and officers at all levels kicked and beat their subordinates forward with leather whips and scabbards.Small military formations became prominent one by one, and dozens of military formations that were originally connected together became one after another like the top of a city.Ge Liyan He Yilong put down the clairvoyant in his hand, used the handle of the horsewhip to lift up the legs of the glasses, and muttered to himself.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight..." Troubled Times Wang Lincheng counted the number of army formations rushing out of the formation in a low voice, "22! Each square formation With nearly a thousand people, the traitor Guo Tianxing can really make a fortune, throwing out nearly 2 people in one fell swoop!"

"Anyway, it's not his old camp that died. Just die!" He Jin laughed, but his eyes were fixed on Ge Liyan He Yilong.

"Brothers, are you full?"

"I am full!"

"Marco ready?"

"Hello!"

"Is the knife sharpened?"

"It's done!"

"Then, let's get active!"

There was a sound of suona in the fifth battalion of Huige, followed by tens of thousands of people shouting together like a thunderstorm, the iron hoofs of tens of thousands of horses exploded between the sky and the earth, the cavalry of the fifth battalion of Huige, like five The burning iron stream rushes forward.

Under the violent beating of 10,000+ iron hooves, the ground also trembled, and the shaking became more and more severe. Looking back.The overwhelming smoke and dust seemed to cover the entire land, and in the smoke and dust, there were faintly visible flags like a sea.There are also countless horse teams rushing into the outer battalion commanded by Prime Minister Huideng.

The Huige Fifth Battalion has fought together for many years, and the cooperation between them has reached a very tacit level.There are conflicts between left and right, and between a few detours, a dozen or so are too prominent.And the square formations with scattered formations were chaotic and scattered.They were even surrounded in a small circle, surrounded by Liu Xiyao and He Jin's two men and horses, and ate them mouthful.Ma Shouying, He Yilong, and Lin Chengyang's three-person team, like three dragons, shuttled and clashed between these dozens of phalanxes composed of soldiers and horses from outside battalions, constantly moving each phalanx out of the entire array's body. Cut it up.

Every phalanx and array is cut apart, it is a blood flower rising!

Teams of captives were guarded by the infantry of the Fifth Battalion of Huige, and they retreated from the front line. Some hungry people who accompanied the army acted as civilian husbands.Even the shoes, socks and clothes of the deceased were shipped back.

There were half-children, holding more than ten spears, happily singing and jumping past Liu Zongmin's flag formation.

"Uncle Jiexuan, it seems that they played well in old times." Wang Long pointed at the prisoners who were taken down, and he was also quite happy.

"Not necessarily." Liu Zongmin's face sank like water.The two eyebrows on the black face were twisted into a knot. "Ma Shuai and the others are nothing more than Zuo Liangyu's miscellaneous team. They are already so powerful. If it is Zuo Liangyu's inner elite, they are bound to suffer a lot!"

Liu Zongmin pointed to the captured soldiers and analyzed them for Wang Long, whose armor was torn.The equipment is messy, and even the officers at the general level are only covered in cotton armor, and only those above the general level have iron armor.In addition, there are few mules and horses in the concurrent camp, and there are no firecrackers and artillery.Isn't this used to consume the combat power of the Huige Fifth Battalion, what is the cannon fodder that exhausts their physical strength? !

"Come on! Order!"

"Master Liu, please give the order!"

Several generals who broke into the camp, Liu Fangliang, Li You, Bai Wang, Bai Minghe, all joined in to salute in front of Liu Zongmin.

"You guys go back immediately, rectify your troops, and move towards Zhangji Town, Shiqiao Town, Guyi Town, Huangji Town, and Sanhe Town. Be sure to cut down trees, dig trenches, and set up obstacles along the way to prevent Zuo Liangyu from being killed. The soldiers and horses are chasing after Ma Shuai and He Shuai's troops! Prepare to meet the brothers who have returned to the fifth battalion of Ge!"

"Follow the order!"

Liu Zongmin ordered in a deep voice, Liu Fangliang, Li You and others led their own soldiers to the headquarters.In a blink of an eye, the soldiers and horses stationed in Huangquhe Town, Zhuji Town and other places waiting for the battalion rushed towards Zhangji Town, Shiqiao Town, Guyi Town, Huangji Town, and Sanhe Town where the infantry of the Fifth Battalion of Huige was assembled. Trees were cut down along the way, and trenches were dug on the road, preparing to block the pursuit of Zuo Liangyu's troops.

"Master Liu, what about my errand?"

Wang Long put away his usual hippie smile, and pleaded for orders in front of Liu Zongmin with a serious face.

"You are the trump card of our rebel army, Fan Tianyin. This magic weapon can only be sacrificed after Zuo Liangyu has used all the tricks!" Liu Zongmin stretched out a big slap and patted Wang Long's shoulder, "But , you also go back and prepare, if something really happens when Lao Hui goes back there, Mingyuan and the others may not be the opponents of Lao Zuo's 10,000+ people!"

. . . . . .

"Don't retreat! Don't retreat! Whoever quits, I will cut him off!"

Under the vertical and horizontal assaults of Ma Shouying, He Yilong and others, the troops and horses of the outer battalion commanded by Prime Minister Hui Deng have shown a tendency to collapse. Get down, make a cry, turn around and run.

A breakaway is like a pipe gushing on a levee.There are too many pipelines, no matter how many reserve teams are in the hands of Prime Minister Whedon, they will be overwhelming.Seeing a big defeat is just around the corner.

Seeing the familiar banners of He Yilong, Ma Shouying, He Jin and others not far away, Xiang Huideng didn't know what it was like. "Do you want to go back at this time and go with these fellow villagers?" However, in an instant, Prime Minister Hui Deng killed this idea in the bud.

"Nonsense! I'm supposed to be an official of the Ming court, a dignified second-rank official, how can I bend myself to be a thief?!" He gritted his teeth and ordered the leader of the old battalion, "You, take our old brothers up, and take this group of Hurry back to my father! Those who dare to retreat will be killed without mercy!"

His personal leader has also followed him for many years, and he is also a murderous figure.At the moment, hundreds of old battalion soldiers leading Prime Minister Hui Deng rushed forward.

"The commander-in-chief has an order, whoever dares to retreat, the Fa-rectification on the spot!" At the sound of the voice, the hand raised the knife and fell, and a head was chopped off by the sharp blade. The huge pressure in the carotid artery suddenly lost its destination, and it seemed that the blood stagnated a little One click, but a quick burst of blood rained down.

The heads of more than 200 defeated soldiers were picked up on the tip of guns by the personal soldiers of Prime Minister Huideng, "Whoever dares to take a step back, this is a role model!"

"Old Hui!" Bai Gui, who surrendered with Prime Minister Hui Deng, rushed into the battlefield with more than 2 reinforcements, "How are you, are you okay?"

"Donkey ball! Go back to this bastard! Ge Li is blind! He was bitten by a fucking mad dog, and he will die in a war!" Whedon panted heavily, Ass sits on the ground.

"Okay! The commander-in-chief let me tell you that he is leading the inner battalion troops up here! The young commander-in-chief Zuo Menggeng, leading the little king of Qin, the generals Ma Jinzhong, Ma Shixiu and other troops, have already rushed to Xianrendu. Wang Yuncheng, deputy general Wu Xueli, Lieutenant General Lu Guangzu and other troops have also rushed to Shuanggou Town! The east and west wings have brought Lao Huihui and He Xiazi tens of thousands of people in!" (~^~)
