Chapter 237

oops! Zhong Wen, who was in the center of the camp, could see it clearly, and he thought something bad was wrong in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Don't mess up! Set up your formation and resist the cavalry!"

Ordinary cavalry may be able to withstand the attack in formation, but the impact of heavy armored cavalry cannot be withstood.

The spears set up by the soldiers did no harm to them at all. No matter whether they stabbed people or horses, they were not painful or itchy. These 30,000 heavy armored cavalry were simply like 30,000 spiritual warriors wearing spiritual armor. Qi Qi charged forward, and its momentum was unstoppable. Not to mention that the Central Army had no experience against heavy armored cavalry. Even the Pingyuan Army, which had mastered the art of defeating the enemy, would be helpless when encountering so many heavy armored cavalry that were charging at full strength.

At this time, Bessa's heavy armored cavalry was like a sharp knife, piercing the weakness of the Central Army. With the sudden advance of the heavy cavalry, the Central Army's Central Army suddenly became a mess. People had never seen such a tough and powerful force. The fierce cavalry was caught off guard. Some of the soldiers retreated, some rushed forward, pushing and trampling on each other, causing countless casualties.

Even Zhong Wen could not stay still in the Central Army. Seeing the opponent's cavalry charging closer and closer, the generals of the Central Army were afraid that Zhong Wen would be affected by it, so they hurriedly protected him and retreated to the rear, waiting for Zhong Wen. After Wen withdrew, the Chinese army was leaderless and in chaos. The swarms of Central Army troops were stabbed over with spears by the chasing cavalry. Before they could get up from the ground, they were trampled to pulp by the iron hoofs of the war horses.

This group of cavalry penetrated directly from the center of the Central Army, entered from the east side, and fought out from the west side. The entire Central Army camp was also cut into two from the middle, making it difficult to look at each other from the front and rear.

Xiao Muqing in the Tianyuan Army camp believed that the impact of the armored cavalry was effective. Without further delay, he immediately sent down the generals, all direct troops retreated, and the Pingyuan Army went into battle to kill the enemy.

At this time, the front army of the Central Army had completely broken into the Tianyuan Army's camp, and the Chinese army was cut off by the enemy. This caused the front army of the Central Army to lose its foundation, and the 30,000-strong army was completely trapped in the Tianyuan Army's camp. At this time, the morale of the Central Army's soldiers was already in chaos without having to deal with it. The direct army retreated and replaced the most courageous and capable Pingyuan Army on the battlefield. This undoubtedly made the Central Army even worse.

The Pingyuan Army is the ace army of the Tianyuan Army. Years of fighting with the city-state of Besa have made Pingyuan soldiers brave and good at fighting. On the battlefield, the soldiers are like red-eyed demons. As long as they see the enemy, they will start a crazy attack. During the charge, many soldiers even threw off their armor for the sake of convenience and went into battle shirtless to fight the enemy.

The Central Army only has 30,000 people, and fighting with the direct army consumes too much physical and manpower. At this time, facing the 100,000 plains army at its peak, it is no match. The front-line personnel of the Central Army bore the brunt of the attack and were killed in row after row by the Pingyuan Army. The Central Army on both sides were not spared and were attacked from both sides by the Pingyuan Army that surrounded them.

The battle progressed for a short time before the central army could no longer resist. The uninterested soldiers were defeated in groups, trying to withdraw from the enemy camp and retreat to their own army's camp. However, the central army of the Central Army has been cut off. Thirty thousand Bessa heavy-armored cavalry rushed up to fight, forcing the Central Army behind them to keep moving forward, while the Central Army in front was killed one after another and retreated. This retreat As soon as they entered and collided with each other, their camp became even more chaotic.

Seeing that half of his own army was surrounded by the enemy, unable to advance or retreat, Zhong Wen became anxious and wanted to command the second half of the Central Army to rush forward to rescue. At this time, the direct troops who had withdrawn from the battlefield started shooting arrows again under Xiao Muqing's order. Pieces of flying arrows fell like raindrops into the rear of the Central Army, and screams and groans could be heard endlessly.

The rear army could not keep up and was forced back continuously by the arrow formations of the direct army. The front army without support was completely trapped by the opponent. In front and on the left and right sides are the wolf-like plains troops, and in the rear are the more deadly heavy armored cavalry. These 30,000 front troops and more than 20,000 central troops were attacked from all sides and had no way to retreat. Almost desperate.

Zhong Wen was not willing to fail. He still commanded the soldiers around him to withstand the rain of arrows and continue to charge forward, trying to rendezvous with his trapped army. But at this moment, bursts of attacks came from the east camp of the Tianyuan Army. With shouts, a Tianyuan army of fifty or sixty thousand people rushed over.

Seeing this enemy army coming, Zhong Wen's head buzzed. You must know that Huang Baifei broke out from the enemy's east camp, and at this time, the east camp was able to send troops to the south camp for reinforcements. It can be seen that Huang Baifei and the more than 30,000 brothers he commanded were in dire straits.

What he expected was correct, it was the Sanshui Army headed by Liang Qi who guarded Dongying.

There are quite a few soldiers in the Sanshui Army who are from the Central Army. This time they encountered the Central Army led by Zhong Wen, and they found an opportunity to take revenge. These generals were all persecuted by Zhong Tian at the beginning, and many of them were dismissed from their posts. They hated Zhong Tian deeply. Now they meet the Central Army who are loyal to Zhong Tian on the battlefield. There is no need for Liang Qi to mobilize their enthusiasm. These generals They all tried their best and led their soldiers to fight to the death.

The Central Army led by Huang Baifei only had 30,000 men. When it encountered the Sanshui Army, which had nearly 100,000 men and was bent on avenging shame, the consequences can be imagined. The battle did not last long, and Huang Baifei and his men were surrounded by the Sanshui Army. Just when the Sanshui Army was about to launch the final joint attack, Liang Qi stepped forward to stop it, and persuaded Huang Baifei to lead his troops to surrender, leaving a gap for himself and the soldiers below. A way to survive.

Huang Baifei is a die-hard follower of Zhong Tian, ​​and he is deeply grateful to Zhong Tian for his help. Even though he knows that this battle is a life-or-death struggle, he still grits his teeth and refuses to surrender. He refused to surrender, but the soldiers under him did not want to die in vain. Moreover, many of the 30,000 central troops under his command were old subordinates of Liang, Wu, and Ziyang families, and they did not want to be buried with Huang Baifei.

Although Huang Baifei repeatedly ordered to fight to the death with the other side, many soldiers were no longer under his command at this time. They threw away their weapons, took off their armor, and surrendered to the Sanshui Army. If someone stood up to surrender, his emotions would soon infect other soldiers. No one wanted to die. Since some people began to surrender, those soldiers who had originally decided to fight to the death also became alive and surrendered with the crowd.

Seeing this, Huang Baifei sighed in his heart. At this point, he could no longer care about others. He could only die for his country to show his loyalty.

Thinking of this, he laughed loudly, raised the sword in his hand, pointed at Liang Qi who was surrounded by many Sanshui soldiers, and shouted: "Liang Qi, if I had known this day would come, the king should have cut you into pieces!" As he spoke, he rushed forward with the sword.

"You are looking for death yourself, don't blame others!" Liang Qi sneered and muttered, turned his head and shouted to the generals around him: "Go ahead, whoever takes Huang Baifei's head will be rewarded!"

"Yes! General!" The generals of the Sanshui Army bowed their hands to receive the order, and set off together to meet Huang Baifei.

A tiger cannot stand against many wolves, and two fists cannot defeat four hands. No matter how powerful Huang Baifei is, he cannot be the opponent of so many generals. After only a few rounds, the spiritual armor on his body was shattered. Before he could put on the spiritual armor again, the generals who were besieging him all made a fatal move, and each of them used their special moves. In just an instant, Huang Baifei's body was cut into several pieces. A famous general was quick and cut off Huang Baifei's head with a knife, held it in his hand, and retreated to Liang Qi to receive the reward.

The battle lasted for a short time, and finally ended with Huang Baifei being killed, and most of his more than 30,000 soldiers surrendered.

After eliminating Huang Baifei and his group, Liang Qi saw that the South Camp was still fighting fiercely, so he immediately selected 50,000 people from the Sanshui Army, led them personally, and went out of the camp to kill the enemy.

The 50,000 Sanshui Army rushed to completely resist the Central Army that was cut off behind, and the two sides were bound to have another fierce battle.

The battle was still going on. The direct army and the Chifeng army both sent three corps to join the battle and joined forces with the Sanshui army to attack the central army. This time, the central army led by Zhong Wen finally couldn't hold on and fled back to their own camps.

Zhong Wen and his group retreated, and the 50,000 central army blocked inside and outside the Tianyuan army camp became completely isolated. Looking forward, backward, left and right, there were huge crowds of Tianyuan army everywhere, and the crowds were so crowded that they couldn't see the end at a glance. At this time, the 50,000 central army was no longer able to fight, and their generals led them to surrender.

In this battle alone, most of the main forces of the central army led by Zhong Wen were lost, and 90,000 people were captured and killed. Zhong Wen brought less than 40,000 soldiers back to his own camp.

The losses on the Tianyuan army side were much smaller, with only a few thousand soldiers killed and wounded.

After this battle, Zhong Wen's faction also completely lost the possibility of breaking out.

The more than 30,000 Central Army soldiers trapped in the camp had no food or grass, and no strength to fight, and were already in a desperate situation.

In the next three days, Zhong Wen organized three breakouts in succession, but all ended in failure, and a lot of casualties were added. At this time, the Central Army soldiers had not eaten for three days, and their eyes were blurry and they were weak. Many hungry soldiers even began to secretly kill their own wounded and eat human flesh to fill their stomachs.

Through the prisoners' confession, the Tianyuan Army learned that the Central Army's camp had run out of food and grass. After being trapped for three days, the situation inside can be imagined.

Generals such as Qiu Zhen, Xiao Muqing, and Liang Qi were also discussing whether to defeat the enemy or persuade the enemy to surrender.

Zhang Zhe, a staff member, proposed to write a letter to Zhong Wen to persuade him to surrender. If Zhong Wen could be captured, it would also give them a certain advantage in the future against Zhong Tian.

Hearing his words, Liang Qi shook his head, indicating that it was inappropriate. Now that Zhong Tian has controlled most of Feng Kingdom, if they want the people of Feng Kingdom to dare to stand up and resist Zhong Tian, ​​they must make people believe that the Tianyuan Army has the strength and determination to completely eliminate Zhong Tian and his evil party. Nothing can be more inspiring and sincere than taking the head of Zhong Tian's son Zhong Wen. Killing him can inspire the confidence of the people better than capturing him, and it can also better demonstrate their determination to be irreconcilable with Zhong Tian.
