Chapter 27 Who Says Human Life is Worthless

Chapter 27 Who Says Human Life is Worthless (Part )
Liu Huai was furious and raised his sword to kill the soldier.

However, the road was blocked by the Qian army, and for a while it was impossible to ride fast.

In a hurry, Liu Huai snatched a spear from the cowering Haner soldier in front of him and threw it with all his might.

After all, he had never practiced throwing javelins, and the spear was not a standard throwing spear, so even though the two were only ten steps apart, the spear still grazed the officer's thigh and stabbed into his horse's right leg.

The warhorse felt pain, its hind hooves softened, and its front hooves were raised high. The officer of the signing army was caught off guard and was thrown out.

Before the armored officer landed on the ground, a huge arrow pierced through his heavy armor, went through his chest, and impaled him like a salted fish on a wooden stick.

Liu Huai looked back, only to see Zhang Qing already drawing his bow and arrow again, sniping the armored officers among the soldiers from a high position.

He understood instantly and no longer tried to stop the formation of the Jin army. Instead, he raised his sword and went around the edge, killing the remaining Jin cavalry.

……

"Split up!"

"Raise your shield!"

"push!"

As the battle line extended from the dock to the interior of the port, the front line of the battle expanded, and the fifty Song army soldiers could no longer cover the entire front battlefield.

Under Dong Cheng's command, the Song army's sword and shield soldiers rushed up from both wings and formed two dense rows. Without drawing their swords, they held up their huge shields in both hands and pushed forward with all their might, trying their best to maintain a line of battle with the armored soldiers in the middle.

Wei Rujun, wearing an iron helmet and holding a spear, disembarked with the last hundred or so spearmen.
Her face was originally painted black, but now the sweat from nervousness left white marks on her face. After wiping it off randomly, she looked up and revealed a large camouflaged face.

Although Wei Rujun was skilled in spear and stick fighting, and had fought with ruffians when running the tavern, how could he have ever seen a real battle?
You must know that her father and brothers are all there, so it is not her turn to risk her life!

But when she rushed into the battlefield, Wei Rujun discovered that the battlefield was completely different from what she had imagined.

Severed limbs and heads from people chopped off by long knives were scattered sparsely on the dock, and most of the corpses were kicked aside to clear the way forward, leaving only blood splattered all over the ground.

A few Jin soldiers who were injured by arrows lay in a pool of blood, struggling and screaming, but were easily kicked over and killed by the Song army who maintained military discipline.

"Shoulder to shoulder!"

"Raise the gun!"

"prick!"

Wei Rujun and the other spearmen stood together behind the sword and shield men, forming a crowded array. Following the officer's orders, they raised their eight-foot-long spears high, passed over the sword and shield men's shoulders, and stabbed forward together.

"what!"

The Jin soldiers who rushed to the shield formation screamed in unison and fell down like wheat in a storm.

Even though he was more than ten feet away, blood still sprayed onto Wei Rujun's face.

"Two steps forward with sword and shield!"

Dong Cheng raised his sword and commanded loudly: "Release the spear, and stab again!"

The battle formations advanced like a forest, pressing forward in an orderly manner. Although the battle turned into a one-sided massacre, it was very different from what Wei Rujun had imagined.

All the skills of spears and sticks, and all the maneuvers and twists and turns, could not be used in the dense military formation. The only movements were the thrusting and retracting of the spear.

The so-called "spears come, spears come, spears go; swords come, swords come, swords go back." Where is the room for dodging in the battle?
"puff……"

A melon hammer drew an arc in the sky and accurately hit the head of Song Jun beside Wei Rujun.

The Song soldier had no iron helmet, only a felt hat. His head exploded instantly, and red and white brain matter splattered on Wei Rujun's face.

Wei Rujun shuddered violently, and the spear he thrust out paused for a moment. The Jin army seized the opportunity, grabbed the spear tip, and pulled it forward.

She gritted her teeth and gripped the spear tightly, leaning her shoulder against the back of the swordsman in front of her, staring straight at the Jin army three or five steps away, struggling to snatch it.

The Jin man seemed to be the murderer who had just killed someone with a hammer. At this time, he had empty hands and roared loudly, regardless of the push from the Song army sword and shield soldiers in front of him.

"Give it to me! Give it to me!"

Before he could finish his words, a feather arrow pierced the Jin man's head, and he lay on the ground with his eyes white.

Wei Rujun took back the spear and looked in the direction where the arrow came from.

Wei Sheng, holding an iron-framed bow, stood among the armored soldiers, observing the entire battle situation from a high vantage point.

The incident happened suddenly and the battle was chaotic. Even if there were one or two Jin soldiers carrying bows, it would be impossible for them to accurately shoot Wei Sheng in the chaos. However, Wei Sheng could leisurely use his bow to shoot at the Jin soldiers one by one.

With his bow slung across his horse, Wei Sheng caught the incoming hammer and hurled it back, knocking the Jin soldier over ten paces away to the ground. He then frowned and gazed ahead. The Jin army's main force was already showing signs of decline and would soon begin to disintegrate. However, the Qian army had not been contained as Zhang Rong had promised; it was actually seething with anger.

Wei Sheng sighed.

He really didn't want to massacre these signed soldiers, but there was no other way at the moment.

If the Qian army really came to the front, Wei Sheng could only order them to be hacked to death.

We can't just let the enemy attack our army, right?!
"Enter!"

At Wei Sheng's command, the Song army's front line pushed forward again.

……

After Liu Huai killed two Jin cavalrymen, he reined in his horse and returned to Zhang Qing's side, loudly demanding, "Didn't they say that Master Zhang had planted troops among the soldiers? If not now, when? Must we see bloodshed before we can rest?"

Zhang Qing's forehead was covered in sweat. "Liu Dalang, what you said is completely unreasonable. With the situation getting so chaotic, even if we had some manpower, how could we stop it?"

Liu Huai was speechless.

It’s not that what Zhang Qing said made sense, but Liu Huai didn’t expect that Zhang Rong, who was such a famous man, had such incompetent subordinates.

If there is no other way, find a way!

What's the point of being at a loss here?
This sharp shooting skill has been wasted.

Liu Huai cursed in his heart and looked back at the messy army, but for a moment he was helpless.

The easiest way to gather your own chaotic troops is to let them run to a place they think is safe, and then have the officers organize them.

The way to deal with the enemy's chaotic army has become simpler. Just form a formation and attack.

In fact, Liu Huai had already seen the Song army formation a hundred steps away.

That meant that the Jin army's main force had been defeated, and the next step was to kill the Qian army in the rear.

Is it really true that only blood can be seen?
Liu Huai glanced at the restless and advancing soldiers, and suddenly saw a man carrying a load being swept forward by the chaotic army. He looked around in panic and shouted. He had no idea where the things on both ends of the load had been thrown away, but the shoulder pole was still on his shoulders.

"Go home, ah!! I want to go home!!"

Not only for some reason, but when he saw this man, Liu Huai suddenly remembered the Shandong man named Li Tieqiang.

"Yes, go home!"

Liu Huai suddenly shouted, startling Zhang Qing.

"What?"

"Stop! I'll take you home!" Liu Huai grabbed the reins and galloped beside the soldiers again, shouting, "Tell your men to shout together and take them home!"

Zhang Qing suddenly realized it and shouted in his Shandong accent: "Stop, I will take you back home!"

Sporadic shouts were heard among the chaotic army.

"Stop!"

"Returning Home..."

"Stop running around!"

“Stop!!!”

The shouts mixed with cries gradually became unified, and these soldiers who were recruited from Shandong gradually stopped in an agitated manner.

"Homecoming!"

Wei Sheng looked at Liu Huai running back and forth and nodded with satisfaction.

"What are you waiting for? Shout it out!"

Wei Sheng said loudly.

"Homecoming!"
