Chapter 705: Fight to the Death

In the entire 20,000-man army of Su Zhi, according to the military system of the Sizhou Army, there are a total of 4,000 archers. Although after two days of fighting, there is no loss of archers, so it is basically full now.

Because it is known that the attack direction of the cavalry is mainly concentrated in the front and back, and the cavalry in the front is far more than the back, Su Zhi transferred 1,000 archers to the front at the last moment, and there are only 1,000 archers on both sides, and 2,000 archers are concentrated in the front.

The 2,000 archers shot nearly 10,000 arrows in several rounds at the Feixiong Army. Facing such dense arrows, and the cavalry charge is originally a dense formation, with the strong defense of the Feixiong Army, some soldiers and horses were still shot and fell. Although the number of these losses is only less than 100 cavalry, the fall of these Feixiong Army brought far more than ordinary cavalry.

Because the Feixiong Army cavalrymen who were charging at high speed saw the Zepao in front of them fall to the ground, they had no choice but to continue to hit him. As a result, the subsequent loss of soldiers and horses caused by the soldiers who were shot by arrows and fell to the ground was more serious than the soldiers who were shot and fell to the ground. There were as many as 300 cavalrymen.

Not only that, the hundreds of cavalrymen who fell to the ground also had a great impact on the other soldiers who were charging. Seeing the obstacles in front, the cavalrymen behind subconsciously controlled the speed of their horses a little, which reduced the impact of the cavalry by more than several times.

After three rounds of volleys, the Feixiong Army had already rushed to the distance of 40 to 50 steps in front of the formation. Next, it was the moment to decide life and death.

The roar of the horse's hooves was getting closer and closer, and Yan Laowu in the army formation couldn't help but become more and more nervous. As a heavy infantryman, Yan Laowu was originally from Nanyang. Because of his good qualifications, he was selected by Ji Ling to join the heavy infantry. Then, after more than half a year of training, the army set out for Luoyang.

Originally, it was thought that it would be easy for his army of tens of thousands to attack the ruined Luoyang, but who knew that they would be defeated and captured, and even General Ji was captured. Soon afterwards, General Hou sent people to redeem the captured generals, but all the soldiers of the Nanyang Army were ruthlessly abandoned in Luoyang.

Fortunately, Yan Laowu, who was able to join the heavy infantry of the Nanyang Army, had good qualifications. General Pingdong was once again selected when selecting soldiers. Although he was no longer a heavy infantryman this time, he was also in the battle camp and became a guard sword and shield soldier. He was also promoted to the chief, and his family in Nanyang was also asked by General Pingdong from General Hou.

The family members who came to Luoyang were arranged in a house in the inner city of Luoyang City. In the following time, this house was purchased by Yan Laowu with military merits and salary silver, and became a real residence that belonged to him. His family also found suitable jobs in the city, so that his family could settle down in Luoyang City.

This time, General Pingdong said that Hedong Governor Jiang Pei and Dong Zhuo in Chang'an were preparing to attack Henei, and together with Zhang Ji's army that had occupied Nanyang, they were preparing to attack Luoyang from the west, north and south. The brutality of Dong Zhuo's Xiliang Army had changed the whole Han Dynasty's color, so General Pingdong led the army to pacify Hedong Governor Jiang Pei.

Seeing the Xiliang cavalry approaching, Yan Laowu cursed. Sure enough, Jiang Pei's dog thieves colluded with Xiliang's thieves. If Dong's army attacked Luoyang again, his family in Luoyang would definitely not be spared.

Thinking of this, Yan Laowu gritted his teeth. Seeing Dong's cavalry getting closer and closer, Yan Laowu suddenly shouted, "Brothers, think about what Dong's Xiliang Army did in Luoyang back then! Think about our own family in Luoyang! If these thieves succeed in their evil plan, our family will be like the people in Luoyang back then,

like dogs being driven to Chang'an, and living a life with no tomorrow!"

"Brothers, tell me, are you willing?"

Yan Laowu's angry shouting startled the soldiers of Longxiangying around him. Everyone, like Yan Laowu, had settled down in Luoyang. Now their family's life is much better than when they were in their hometown. In fact, at the beginning, some soldiers still didn't quite understand why they sent troops to attack Hedong.

But Yan Laowu's words woke everyone up. Yes, if Dong's army really allowed to capture Luoyang again, wouldn't their own family be like those people in Luoyang back then, being driven from Luoyang to Chang'an like a family of dogs.

Now the soldiers and people in Luoyang are mainly composed of several groups of people. On one hand, there are refugees scattered around Luoyang, on the other hand, there are ordinary people who moved from Nanyang, and some are refugees from Qingzhou Yellow Turban and other places.

Everyone is very satisfied with their current life, otherwise the people in Luoyang would not be so high. If someone really wants them to return to their previous life, or even a worse life, no one would be willing.

So when Yan Laowu said his thoughts, everyone suddenly woke up. Yes, for the sake of their families in Luoyang, they must fight to the death with these Dong thieves cavalry.

For a while, there were roars around Yan Laowu: "I don't want to, I don't want to!"

Yan Laowu heard it and said loudly: "Yes, I, Yan Laowu, don't want to either, so for the sake of my wife, children and family in Luoyang, we have to kill all these Xiliang thieves!"

"For my family, for Luoyang, kill all the Xiliang thieves!"

"For my family, for Luoyang, kill all the Xiliang thieves!"

For a while, the soldiers of Longxiangying shouted in unison, saying;

As more and more soldiers shouted around Yan Laowu, the shouts became louder and louder, and then more and more soldiers in the army joined in the shouting. In the end, everyone in the army shouted loudly.

The shouts on the entire battlefield almost drowned out the sound of Dong Zhuo's horse hooves.

Su Zhi saw the situation on Yan Laowu's side. You know, at this time, in the formation, except for the heavy breathing of everyone, almost no one was talking. Suddenly someone shouted loudly, how could it not attract the attention of the generals? At first, Su Zhi thought that Yan Laowu was going to incite the soldiers to escape, and was about to send someone to suppress him, but when he was about to send someone, he heard the shout of "Kill all the Xiliang dogs".

Then the morale of the soldiers in the entire army was incited by a few words, and Su Zhi himself was excited. After shouting loudly, Su Zhi thought to himself that this boy was a talent. If he and he could survive this battle, he would definitely promote and reuse him.
